Hai Tang paused. She immediately understood that Hai Yuan had been kidnapped, and the purpose of these kidnappers was to extort money.

“How much do you want?” Hai Tang asked bluntly.

In front of Hai Yuan, whom she regarded as her family, all money was just worldly possessions.historical

At this time, Gu Yun had already taken out his computer and connected it to Hai Tang’s phone with a data cable.

He called in the Gu Corporation’s top IT experts to remotely crack the call data and find the location of the kidnapper who was talking to Hai Tang. “How much..Ahem.” The gangster leader coughed a few times.

In fact, he wasn’t sure how much he wanted to extort.

After all, they had already seen how rich Hai Yuan was. If a minor had more than five million in his card, his family would only be richer.

However, there was too much money and they could not move it. For safety and not being tracked by the police, they could only ask for cash.

“Three million?” The leader of the hooligans asked tentatively.

He thought that perhaps Hai Tang would still haggle with them, so it was only right that he bid a higher ransom.

Hai Tang glanced at Gu Yun’s actions and immediately understood that what she had to do now was to stall the kidnappers as much as possible. The longer the conversation went on, the more likely the IT experts on the other side would be able to crack the kidnappers ‘IP address.

Thus, Hai Tang pretended to hesitate. Our family can’t take out that much money at once.”

“How can I not have the money? Damn it, that damned kid has five million in his card. You said you can’t take out the money. Are you telling me a joke?” The gangster leader said with his eyes wide open.

Hai Tang immediately reacted. Haiyuan’s bank card had already been taken by the kidnappers.

“That’s our family’s money. It’s all in his card. You can take it away.” We can’t take out three million because most of our family’s money has been exchanged for equivalent items.”

” What’s an equivalent?” The gangster leader didn’t understand what Hai Tang was talking about.” What’s an equivalent?” he asked in confusion.

“That’s.. Some branded watches, jewelry, bags, and so on.” Hai Tang lied.

She understood that the faster she agreed, the more suspicious the kidnappers would be, and it would be inconvenient for the IT experts to find out the kidnappers ‘specific address.

“Damn it, what use do we have for a bunch of watches and bags! We want real money!” The gangster leader immediately said angrily.

For them, luxury goods had no value other than looking good. They were not even as useful as a box of self-heating hotpot.

Hai Tang immediately reacted.” Yes,” she said.” We can exchange these things for five million gold for you. But the condition is that you cannot hurt my brother.”

When he heard that Hai Tang had even taken the initiative to increase the ransom, the gangster boss was immediately happy. Changing five million in cash into gold that was convenient to carry and move around had indeed saved him a lot of trouble.

He slapped his head.” Why didn’t I think of such a good idea before?”

Then, he agreed immediately. Gold! Don’t worry, your brother is very safe with us. He has already slept three times. As long as you obediently give us the ransom and don’t call the police, we won’t do anything to him.”

” If you dare to call the police, I’ll chop off your brother’s limbs as soon as I see the police. Don’t even think about getting away with it!” The gangster leader lowered his voice and said in a fierce tone.

Hearing that the other party wanted to chop off Hai Yuan’s limbs, Hai Tang’s heart jumped. We can’t call the police. I..”

In order to gain the kidnapper’s trust, Hai Tang simply lied.” Our family’s money isn’t clean either. We don’t dare let the police know.”

On the side, Gu Yun, who was inexplicably accused of having dirty money, looked at the computer seriously. After getting the IP address of the kidnapper that the IT expert had cracked, he silently gave Hai Tang an ” ok ” gesture.

The kidnappers were located in a warehouse in the suburbs more than ten kilometers away.

Hai Tang saw the address and satellite image. and she immediately felt relieved. She silently watched Gu Yun turn off his computer and walk out the door.

” What?” When the gangster boss heard Hai Tang say that she would not call the police, he became even happier.” When will the gold be ready?” he asked..
