Chapter 862: I’m Going To Put The Lu Corporation Up For Auction
When Gu Mang returned to the villa, the Head Elder and the others were seated in the living room. Within the Elders’ Association, the Head Elder was a separate force.
The rest of the people there were the elders of the four big families, as well as all the people who were in charge of the various prominent research centers.
Leng Xuan stared at Gu Mang gloomily.
The entire hall was filled with the Elders’ Association guards, all of them equipped with guns.
The story of Gu Mang pointing her gun at Old Master Gu at the Gu residence earlier had spread and so they had brought ample security to keep her in line.
They didn’t know what else Gu Mang was capable of but everyone was fearful of her madness.
Gu Si got up and walked over. His soft and tender face was rather cold and solemn. “Sis, they were waiting here when I returned.”
Gu Mang was expressionless.
She walked over without saying anything and sat down on the main sofa haughtily.
The Head Elder looked at Gu Mang. His attitude towards her was very respectful. “Young Lady, I heard that Old Madam gave you the Lu Military Group?”
Gu Mang sat in a rowdy manner. She took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket and removed the wrapper slowly. She did not even give any of the elders a proper look.
When the Head Elder saw her uncooperative attitude, he stopped waiting for her response. He continued speaking as he pleased.
“The Elders’ Association has discussed the matter. Although the Lu Military Group is in your hands, the management is loyal to the Lu family. We should staff the organization with people loyal to us now that it belongs to Jijing Island.”
Jiangsui, who was standing off to the side, frowned.
If they changed the management team to be loyal to Jijing Island, would the military group still belong to Sister Mang?
Elder Bi said, “That’s right. If we don’t change the management, only the name of the military group will change. It will still belong to the Lu family.”
The corner of Gu Si’s lips twitched. He wanted to scream at them. Granny Lu had left the Lu Military Group to Sis, so why were the Elders trying to take it from her?
Leng Xuan put her arm on the sofa’s armrest. “Be careful before you end up with an empty shell of a military group. You might end up losing badly even after Matriarch Lu has dealt you a good hand of cards.”
“Yeah, we don’t have to worry with our people at the helm.”
“What do you mean ‘our?'” Gu Mang looked up. Her eyes were very dark and cold.
The Head Elder paused, his smile frozen on his face. “What do you mean by that, Young Lady?”
Gu Mang crossed her legs and leaned back lazily. “Do the things that belong to me have anything to do with all of you?”
She meant that she would never let Jijing Island take the Lu Military Group from her.
“Belong to you?” Leng Xuan scoffed. “Do you think the Lu family would have given up the military group if it weren’t for Jijing Island standing by you?”
The Head Elder said, “I don’t think Lu Chengzhou will help you anymore. Those in the Lu family are not law-abiding people. How would you manage such a large group without us?”
“Yeah, Young Lady. The best solution is to send people from the Elders’ Association to manage it.”
“The corporation still belongs to you. We are just going to manage it for you.”
“So many people have their eyes set on the Lu Military Group. Without a capable person to suppress them, no one knows how chaotic it might become.”
“Young Lady, are there any people you can recommend? Or…”
“So you want to help me manage the military group?” Gu Mang smirked nonchalantly.
When the others heard this, they thought that they stood a chance now and all of their eyes lit up. They stared at Gu Mang.
Gu Mang crossed her arms and stepped on the coffee table. “What if I refuse?”
She looked really obnoxious.
The Head Elder was very patient. “Young Lady, think carefully. We are doing this for your own good. Everyone in the corporation works for the Lu family. Do you have loyal people under you to manage the military group?”
“True.” Gu Mang nodded as if she agreed.
Everyone became even more excited. Would Gu Mang really hand the Lu Military Group over to them?
The smile on the Head Elder’s face became even more genuine. “Young Lady, it is good that you’ve come to your senses.”
Jiangsui became anxious. “Sister Mang…”
Gu Mang turned to him. “Make an announcement. I want to put the Lu Military Group up for auction. The highest bidder gets it.”
Jiangsui was speechless.
The expressions of everyone who was across from her changed instantly.
Even the Head Elder could not stay calm anymore. He clenched his fists. “What are you saying? Putting the military group up for auction?”
Gu Mang raised her eyebrow and laughed rather wickedly. “Yeah, since I can’t manage it, I should sell it. I can earn a huge sum from it.”
The corner of Jiangsui’s eyes twitched.
Everyone else was speechless.
