"Tell me! What's the matter with me?"

Gruber glanced at the electronic timer placed on the bedside table, saving the useless polite opening remarks and asked bluntly.

"Only you can help me with this."

Zhao Yi first gave him a very good high hat and then said: "I need a financial manager."

Zhao Yi owns his own mining company. It is not difficult to recruit such staff. He can use his own strength to deal with the Todd family. But he is also very clear that using Gruber's men will significantly shorten the time for implementing the plan and double the efficiency.

"Financial Manager?"

Gruber seemed a little surprised: "Why, do you want to check the company's accounts? Or do you need a financial assistant?"

"I want to try it out and smash people to death with money."

Zhao Yi's voice was very cold and firm.

The director of the Industrial Alliance on the screen seemed a little hesitant. He obviously understood what Zhao Yi said. After a moment of silence, he said, "Who is your target?"

"A family called Todd. The main business field should be the food industry. The market value is about 300 million."

Zhao Yi added: "I still have more than 1.16 billion yuan in the bank accounts I have checked, including the latest batch of colloidal chocolate dividends. It should be enough."

Gruber slowly frowned and said unhappily: "I really don't understand what you are thinking... But there are always your own reasons to do this kind of thing. Let's do it! I'll send a few people here, they are all veterans in this field. You can leave the whole thing to them. If the money is not enough, you can withdraw a part from my private account."

As he said that, the director of the Industrial Alliance yawned and said sleepyly: "If you encounter such a thing again in the future, you'd better contact my secretary directly. For a small company worth 300 million yuan to disturb my sleep, those guys named Todd deserve to be damned... OK! Don't call again. Otherwise, I will curse you when you are with a woman in the future, never/release————”…

St. Blanc Manor is located on the eastern continent of the planet Reims. It is about sixteen kilometers away from the city, not close or too far. A neat cedar-lined path connects the manor with the road. In the hot summer, it looks particularly cool. The imitation sunlight created by the ecological base makes the cedar look even greener.

At the end of the road is a three-story building with European classical style. Since almost all the building materials are stones, it looks more like a miniature castle. Beautiful wisteria flowers hang down from the gray walls, and in the green belts on both sides of the door walls, there are myrtle flowers like pink and satin blooming. If it weren't for those luxury cars parked in the yard in front of the door and with modern mechanical meaning, it would be easy to mistakenly think that they had entered another world like a conversation.

Old Foxson sat on a rattan rocking chair, looking at the undulating hills in the distance in a daze. It was close to the porch steps, and the dazzling sunlight was blocked by the eaves, creating a pleasant and cool shade.

Although he is over ninety years old, Foxson's shoulders are still wide and his muscles are still developed, and he is so strong that he does not match his actual age. This is due to his strong preference for sports in his youth. Even now, Foxson still likes to compete with young people from time to time, and he always tries to overturn his opponent's arms in amid the screams and exclamations of others.

Of course, only those opponents who have competed with him know best whether his strength is strong or not. As the patriarch of the Todd family, people always use various methods to make him happy and satisfied.

After taking a sip of cool homemade beer and looking at his granddaughter chasing the playful scene in the distance, Old Fox gradually put away the smile on his face and his expression began to become solemn.

Although St. Blanke Manor is far from the city, it is not isolated from the world. In fact, it is the core of the Todd family. In addition to various essential communications and networks, transportation even has two helicopters that are on standby all day and can be launched at any time.

Starting the day before yesterday, two of Todd's most important stocks suddenly experienced continuous declines. Within six hours, the number of stocks sold on the market had exceeded 14.68% of the company's shares. If it were not for the closing time, the shipment volume would be larger.

The low-price selling had a huge impact on the Todd family. The rapid decline in stock prices caused the market value of Todd Foods to instantly shrink by 30%. Obviously, this was an economic war against the Todd family, or it should be said that it was a plan.

Old Fox's brows became tighter and tighter. This unconscious muscle twist made the wrinkles on his face appear denser, like dead wood that was deeply chiseled by a knife, ugly and hideous.

For two days, Old Fox was racking his brains to think————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

All those who have come into contact with him think that Old Fox is friendly. But they may never know that seventy-six years ago, Old Fox once robbed a Federal Bank on a remote immigrant planet. At that time, he took twenty-three customers and bank staff as hostages. In order to intimidate the party, Old Fox killed them one by one during the escape. After successfully breaking out of the encirclement on a spaceship, he drank all the men involved in the robbery at the banquet in the name of celebration. After doing this, he quickly left alone with six million federal dollars, changed his appearance on the planet Lance, and bought another brand new identity with money... At that time, he had just turned nineteen.

The blood and madness of the past have gradually been forgotten by people as time goes by. Thanks to money and strong body, Old Fox successfully established a big family with a prosperous population. Now he is living together for five generations, but Old Fox still feels full of vitality. Just last week, he bought two beautiful pan-United Empire girls from human traffickers. The moans and screams throughout the night became the best topic of conversation for other residents and servants of St. Blanke Manor. Some say that Old Fox must have taken drugs before going to bed; some say that his genitals must have undergone some special transformation, which is actually a metal columnar stick, plus a layer of artificial bionic skin; some say that the shouting is actually a synthetic effect of electronic sound... But no matter what, when bathing the next day, several maids clearly saw that the two girls were swollen and could not even support their walking.

Old Fox felt very happy. He didn't want to, nor was he willing to give up everything he had at the moment. However, the reality was so strange--he didn't know who was trying to deal with him, nor did he understand why the other party was doing this. Old Fox believed that no one could know what happened back then. All insiders and people involved were killed by themselves. If someone was going to make a fuss about this issue, the first thing he came to find should be federal investigations, rather than sniping the company's stocks.

The sunny green field was full of vitality. Old Forks watched silently, a magnetic levitation vehicle gradually approaching from the end of the tree-lined path. The expression on his face was full of expectations and a hint of anxiety.

A few minutes later, Yadonis, in a gray suit, had already walked out of the car and trotted to him.

"How is it? Have you found it? Who did it?"

Old Fox refers to stocks—— Through the trading network, you can query the e-commerce ports of sellers and buyers. Although it is impossible to know the other party’s true identity, you can track them through various methods openly or secretly to lock in the specific location.

This is a huge price. It is expected that the cost will be no less than 20 million Federal dollars. But in Old Fox's view, it is worth it to find the guy who is against him.

"Nothing is available————”

Yadonis sat tiredly on the chair, picked up the glass cup placed on the coffee table next to him, poured a large cup of iced lemonade, and almost poured it on his neck.

At this moment, there was no arrogance on his face when he talked to Zhao Yi. The tension and anxiety completely controlled his thinking. Apart from stocks and money, as well as various troubles that made people worry, Yadunis no longer had the extra effort to consider other things.

"The other party's method is very clever. They used different principals to sell them from the 39th exchange on seven planets at the same time. Our stock price was completely suppressed. The other party's financial reserves seemed to be very abundant. I tried to invest more than 30 million to increase the price, but I was beaten again in less than half an hour. I also contacted the other shareholders. As early as two days ago, all the stocks in their hands were acquired, and the price was 20% higher than the market value at that time. According to what they said, they did not see the stock acquirer himself, but was entirely through an agency... It was already obvious that we might have provoked an extremely powerful opponent. Or, a consortium with huge power, wanted to swallow the Todd family in one bite."

Old Fox couldn't help but shivered. No matter which guess it was, it was not the result he wanted.

This is the family he created. Every person and every child is his closest bloodline. He watched them grow up, and once they lose their source of income, everything in St. Blanke's Manor will be gone.

“This is not the biggest problem we are facing right now———”

Yadonis's deep and cold voice pulled Old Fox back from his imagination: "Six months ago, we borrowed a loan of 120 million from the federal bank. The money was used to expand the factory and increase the production line at that time. According to the contract, the loan must be fully repaid within five years. If the bank forcibly recovered the funds on the grounds of poor market prospects... then we will never have any way out."

Hearing this, Old Fox's face suddenly changed drastically. Yadonis is the most economically intelligent representative of the younger generation, and even he said so... It can be seen that things are really uncontrollable.

"You don't have to worry, there's not a big chance of this happening."

Aware of his father's emotional changes, Yadonis quickly calmed down, squeezed out a reluctant smile, and said: "Our food processing plant has been continuously operating. The total annual order trade volume has exceeded 1.6 billion yuan. After taxes and various necessary expenses, the expected profit is at least 200 million yuan. Moreover, we still have 51% of the company's absolute controlling stake. Even if the stock market collapses completely, it will not have a destructive impact on the family."

Old Fox nodded gently. Although there was still obvious anxiety on his face, it was much more relieved than before. He had always believed in Yadunis's judgment, and this son with business talent had never disappointed him.

The tension that filled the two of them became slightly relaxed as the rhythm of the conversation gradually slowed down. The noise and laughter of the children came from the flowers in the distance, which also dispelled the extremely dull air. At least, Old Fox felt much better now and his mood was not so heavy.

At this moment, a maid stumbled over from the inner room and sent a few sheets of paper with a strong smell of ink to Yadonis.

It was a "Planet Ri" faxed from the city.

The cover is a clear photo. In a prominent position at zhong yāng, a boy about eight or nine years old was holding a piece of apple filling cake that had been torn off the outer packaging. Next to it, a middle-aged man and woman stood. It looked like they were the boy's parents. They all had extremely strong anger on their faces. Especially for her mother, she stretched out her right hand and pointed to the cake that had been broken in half in the boy's hand. Just opposite the fingertips, she used a particularly enlarged round arrow to bring out some scattered white dot-like foreign objects mixed in the apple filling.

Although the photos are far less intuitive than the holographic images, as long as you are not blind, you can easily see that they are maggots wiggling back and forth in the soft stuffing balls of sauce red.

Just to the right of the photo, the front of the cake wrapping paper in the boy's hand was exposed. There was a clear "td" combination pattern, which was also a unique logo of the Todd family...

"I am Fu Bin, a reporter from Health and Health, and I am giving you a special report at the marketing office of Todd Foods."

"From the situation I just discovered, the donuts and fructose cakes produced by Todd Company do not comply with the food hygiene and safety regulations. Inside the factory, the food inspector discovered a large number of expired spoiled stuffings. The entire production workshop exuded a nauseating stench. It was in this environment where I felt like I wanted to suffocate after staying for a long time, Todd Company made the "Lele" brand fructose cakes that were very popular in the market at a rate of 6,000 pieces per day."

"According to relevant persons, Todd has been selling goods from hidden channels. According to the latest sampling and inspection results, almost all processed foods of Todd have contained more than ten times the testing standard. It is reported that the General Administration of Health has issued a special control order on the company's issues. Please pay attention to watching the relevant interviews of "Star TV". We will broadcast the latest progress of this incident at any time."

Standing next to the window of the single dormitory, leaning against the wall, silently looking at the busy crowd in front of him, Zhao Yi showed a deep and plain smile on his handsome and calm face.

The people sent by Gruber were extremely efficient. In less than two days, the stock suppression of Todd's company had already gained an absolute advantage. They were indeed Jingying in this regard. Although there were only three people, they had an unimaginable powerful effect.

Zhao Yi's dormitory has been occupied by various electronic instruments. Most of them are high-power network connectors with remote communication capabilities. Through the control terminal, assisting personnel far away from other planets can perform a series of actions according to the order. Of course, what we refer to here is not just a stock sale, but also a matter of using heavy money to buy internal employees of Todd Food Company or bribing senior officials of the Food Supervision Bureau.

"Sir, it is expected that in twenty-four hours, you will gain absolute control of Todd's company———"

Stanley Kovasky is a middle-aged man with a rigorous appearance. His silver-gray hair and a suit with the same styling give him a unique charm. As the leader of Gruber's three-person team, in addition to issuing orders and coordinating work, he must also report to Zhao Yi on time on the progress and implementation of the plan.

"We have sent messages to all influential media and arranged internal personnel in food processing plants to replace some food raw materials as required. Next, we will announce to the media the scandal of the Todd family in other aspects. For example, xing may also be a bribe to an official. Haha! Don't worry, one of these things must be real. However, it will take time to dig them out. It is impossible for everyone in the Todd family to have a clean butt. As long as we find clues, we can magnify them infinitely. Under the collective bombardment of media remarks, they can't last long."

Stanley is indeed an expert in this field. The plans he has formulated are closely linked, from stocks to inside information about production to various dirty scandals, all of which are the most concerned topics of the public and the media. As he said, the Todd family was indeed overwhelmed by this series of emergencies. It is not too far from the final goal.
