274: Chapter 274: Defensive Fortifications 274: Chapter 274: Defensive Fortifications Hearing Lin Shuang’s words, Su Wanqiao’s pretty face slightly stiffened.
The expressions of the Su Family members were all very solemn.
“Lin, then… do we have any other options?
Maybe… apply for national protection?” Father Su Beicheng asked with a complex expression.
When facing those overseas capital forces, he knew the Su Family was truly helpless.
But his daughter, Su Wanqiao, shook her head, “Applying for national protection would mean handing over the Heavenly Medicine technology to the state, that’s not an option!”
The Heavenly Medicine technology was developed by her own hands, naturally, she didn’t want to hand it over to officials.
Lin Shuang shook his head indifferently, “You’re overthinking it.
Even if you wanted to hand it over to the officials, they wouldn’t necessarily dare to accept it.”
“Now, at a time when the international situation is turbulent, the impact of the Heavenly Medicine technology is too significant.
If the officials dared to intervene in this matter, they would inevitably… stand against global overseas capital.
The officials would not do that, so they also wouldn’t easily use their resources to protect you,” Lin Shuang said lightly.
No one understood those scholars better than him.
Those scholars sitting in high positions were all extremely cautious.
Unless there was significant strategic importance, they would not easily make a move to protect Su Wanqiao.
Just the Heavenly Medicine technology alone wasn’t worth their effort to protect.
For the sake of the Heavenly Medicine, choosing to confront so much overseas capital was not deemed worthwhile by them.
In the past, Lin Shuang had suffered a great loss from them, so no one knew the official’s people better than he did.
Hearing Lin Shuang’s words, Su Beicheng’s expression grew more complex.
If applying for official protection was also not a viable option, what should they do?
“Lin, do you have any other methods then?
We can’t just… stand by and watch them keep trying to assassinate us, right?” Su Beicheng asked with a grave expression.
Lin Shuang spoke lightly, “There is a way.
I know some arms dealers overseas, and I can get them to smuggle in some military defense equipment.
Just placing military defense systems around the Su Family Manor will be enough to fend off those overseas hired assassins.
But it won’t be cheap.”
“How much approximately?” Su Beicheng asked gravely.
“Ten billion,” Lin Shuang stated.
Hearing this number, Su Beicheng was initially stunned.
But he eventually gritted his teeth, “Fine!
Lin, I’ll leave this to you to handle!
But make sure you handle it well!”
Lin Shuang lit a cigarette and took a deep draw, “Don’t worry, I can smuggle the cargo in within 24 hours.”
Su Beicheng then transferred the money to Lin Shuang’s account.
That same day, Lin Shuang contacted the Netherworld Army overseas.
He made a direct call to one of the Four Fallen Angels, Lucifer.
“Lucifer, contact Lockheed Martin for me, and purchase a batch of private military defense equipment.
I’m transferring the money to you now,” Lin Shuang said, and immediately transferred ten billion in funds to Lucifer.
Lockheed Martin Corporation is one of the global top-tier super military arms groups, an advanced military technology group from M Country, possessing the most top-notch military equipment.
On the other end of the phone, the fallen angel Lucifer was startled by the mere ten billion, and said with complexity, “Lord Nether King, this… ten billion might not be enough.
The cheapest defense equipment from Lockheed starts at a hundred billion… This amount of money… isn’t even enough to cover the small expenses…”
Holding the phone, Lin Shuang responded indifferently, “Just give him ten billion, and when you get there, use my name directly.
Tell him he owes me a life, and if he refuses to comply, I’ll personally come to collect the debt.”
Hours later, in Atlantis Continent, Lockheed Martin Military Group.
A fighter jet adorned with the Netherworld Army’s skull totem roared into the sky, landing at the Lockheed Martin company’s airstrip.
The plane’s cabin doors opened, and a cold man with long hair covering half of his face leapt out.
It was Lucifer, one of the Four Fallen Angels!
He was also a nightmare demon of the Dark World.
Lucifer walked straight into Lockheed’s headquarters, right into the chairman’s office.
He found the top executive of Lockheed Martin, Evan Mark.
“By the order of the Nether King, I am here to purchase a set of private military defense equipment.
Here is the payment,” said Lucifer, his words sparse as he tossed a bank card with ten billion in front of Evan Mark.
Evan Mark was somewhat anxious and uncertain; the sudden intrusion of the fallen angel Lucifer made him uneasy.
The man before him was a nightmare of the Dark World, a merciless killer.
“Has Lord Nether King been missing for a long time?
How has he been recently?” Evan Mark forced a slight smile, attempting to sound casual.
Just hearing the name “Nether King” had already unsettled him.
Evan Mark checked the balance on the bank card his subordinate handed to him.
Seeing only ten billion, his expression became somewhat embarrassed.
This… ten billion was far from enough to buy the equipment from his group.
However, Lucifer’s next words made the arms tycoon shudder.
“The Nether King has a message for you: you owe him a life, and if you refuse to sell the equipment, he will personally come to collect the debt.”
