Chapter 501 DOWRY
"Don't use your own money. Let's just take a different route." Mu Feng said.
"You got lots of experts in IT. Why don't they just hack seven billions of dollars?" Mu Lan suggested. She could hack and get money too without leaving a single trail, but she didn't tell them that she was also an expert in that field.
"Illegal action might get caught by Romano Corporation. They are keeping a sharp eye on us. They want to use any clue to get us down." Mu Liang said. "Also, when bank will require for sudden money coming from us without any legal action, then the fame of Mu Corporation will be tarnished."
"That's why I plan to give you three billions worth gold now. What do you think?" Mu Feng said.
"What are you? A pirate?" Mu Lan frowned.
"Don't underestimate my wealth." Mu Feng said proudly.
"Yeah, sure. I'm such a worthless big brother that I will snatch your most precious collection when I'm in crisis. How about I say 'no'." Mu Liang's tone was chilling cold.
Suddenly Mu Lan remembered something. "Ah! So this gold is saved for the dowry when you wanted to marry Xiao Ying, right?"
Mu Feng felt embarrassed. This gold was indeed his lifetime saving. He collected them thinking one day he would give it to his wedded partner. Then he met Qi Ying. Basically, it belonged to her. "Who told you about it?"
"Who else? Yan Su of course!" Mu Lan replied.
"That blabber mouth!" Mu Feng cursed.
"Save your dowry. I will give you four billions in two days." Mu Lan said.
Both Mu brothers glanced at her. Both of them were confused.
"Just give me some time. I'm not going to explain it to you. However, I need your Online Game Department to cooperate with me." Mu Lan said. "And also, give me the copy of your Island Project."
Mu Lan's eyes were at Mu Feng. However, she was talking to Mu Liang.
Mu brother realized that and Mu Liang replied, "Sure. Let me know if you need anything else."
Mu Feng's sweat dropped. 'Cut it out guys. I'm feeling uneasy.' Still, he couldn't complain since he was afraid of getting beaten once again. He said, "Well, I can help you with three billion. I will just steal it from someone else. Let me call her now." He took out his cell phone and dialed a familiar number.
"Can't you ask money from Yan Su or Dr. Lu Feng?" Mu Lan suggested.
Mu Feng replied, "Yan Su's family won't partner with us in this project. This one is risky. That's why I told big brother not to put his savings here. And Lu Family won't invest their money if it wasn't medical."
Mu Lan nodded in understanding and went inside the bedroom to take her laptop. She turned on the laptop and her fingers flew on the keyboard.
In the meantime, Mu Liang got a call from his secretary from Italy branch. "What?"
The secretary was professional as she spoke, "Boss, the President of Romano Corporation sent his assistant in the office to discuss something with you. Should I sent him to you?"
'So they started making moves. That's fast.' Mu Liang replied, "No need. Let him wait till the office closes down."
The secretary replied, "Okay boss." She hung up. Feeling satisfied at boss's decision. 'This assistant of the rival company is acting all high and mighty. Now he will get some lesson for messing up with us.'
Mu Lan came back and instructed Mu Feng to bring some high storage hard drives and a powerful computer.
Mu Feng couldn't go since he was busy investigating and calling. So Mu Liang went out with his car. He went to the office using his personal elevator, so no one saw him. From his office, he took out the project file which wasn't shared with anyone else. The Island Project was written in detailed in this file. He made a copy of it and left. Then he ordered his secretary to send his computer and ten hard drives in the castle.
The secretary was puzzled. Mu Liang's PC was an extraordinary, one of a kind. She didn't argue and asked five guards to take Mu Ling computer out of the room. They used the president's personal elevator, so not many people knew about it.
The computer and hard drives went safely to the castle. Mu Lan got them and started working. Mu Feng knew the password of Mu Liang's computer, so he helped. It was the date of the first time Mu Lan confessed her feelings towards him.
The computer had some kind of Artificial Intelligence system. It helped Mu Lan even more. She took some papers and pencils. She wrote down some programs and worked on it in the computer.
Mu Liang took the copy of the Island Project and put it on a black colored file. He took another five similar black colored files and put some blank papers in there. He gave six files to six loyal workers of Mu Corporation and told them to take different routes to go to the castle and to give the files to Mu Lan's hands.
It was a dangerous mission since the Romano Corporation wanted the project for themselves. So Mu Liang had to be careful.
Mu Liang took another black colored file with some blank papers on it and walked out of the office. As he got close to the garage, the assistant of the President of the Romano Corporation came to him. "Good afternoon. Mr. Mu. I never thought that I had to search for you in the garage. Why are you sneakily going back?"
"And why would I do that?" Mu Liang asked.
The assistant showed a high and mighty behavior. He said, "You are supposed to beg for money right now, Mr. Mu. You don't have enough time for getting the money, am I right? Since other companies won't give you a single penny."
