Chapter 110: The Beginning of the War
"Pilsen, contact Adรจs for me. โ
"Ades?" Pilson was taken aback, "Master, what are you looking for him?"
"Don't ask so much, hurry up!"
Pilsen didn't dare to delay, and a few minutes later, in Jiang Lai's mobile phone video, an old face appeared. The other party bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, I haven't seen you for a long time." โ
Jiang Lai smiled faintly, "Ades, it's rare that you still regard me as the king of the temple." โ
"A king for one day, a king for life, even if you have left the temple. โ
"Okay! I'm not interested in talking nonsense with you, the reason why I'm looking for you is to know something from you, for the sake of how well I have treated you in the past, and I hope you tell the truth. โ
"Your Majesty, I am only the asset manager of the Temple, and I don't know anything other than money. โ
"I know your duty, and I don't need you to remind me. I ask you, after Andrew usurped the throne, did he use a large sum of money from the Temple?"
Hearing this, Adรจs couldn't help but be surprised, his face was full of surprise, "Your Majesty, how do you know about this?"
"Sure enough!" Jiang Lai nodded secretly, "I want to know the details." โ
"After Andrew took over the Temple, he embezzled a total of $80 billion, all of which I was personally responsible for, and half of the $80 billion went into the accounts of five people, all of whom were drug lords of various countries, and when you were in power, these people were the objects that the Temple refused to deal with. โ
"What about the other half?"
At Andrew's orders, the other half of the funds were transferred to a secret account. I almost forgot, two days ago, Andrew asked me to prepare $50 billion, saying that it would be of great use in the near future. โ
Jiang Lai frowned slightly, and said, "Ades, since you are the asset manager of the temple, then you should know the rules, even if it is His Majesty the King, you can't use the temple's funds privately." โ
Adรจs smiled bitterly, "Your Majesty, of course I understand the rules you said. There were three asset managers in the temple, and the other two asset managers were all executed by Andrew because they refused to cooperate, so I ......"
"I see!" Jiang Lai sighed.
"Your Majesty, since Andrew succeeded to the throne, the whole temple has been in a miasma, and I ask you to return as soon as possible and regain the throne, I would like to assist you more than Andrew. โ
"I will. After speaking, Jiang Lai hung up the video call directly.
It seems that his guess is correct, Andrew has been secretly funding the deep space program. At the beginning, the temple was in charge of him, and Andrew didn't have enough funds, so he asked the drug lords for help.
Considering Andrew's usurpation of the throne and his move to move large sums of money, is it ...... Did the deep space program really succeed?
Jiang Lai took out a cigarette and swirled it back and forth between his fingers, a little absent-minded.
Before, he had been thinking about why Andrew came to Huaguo, but now that he thinks about it, it should be for the deep space program. I have to admit that Andrew is a very intelligent person. He deliberately arranged the experimental team of the Deep Space Project in Huaguo in order to avoid the Templar's sphere of influence.
So, in the years that he took over the temple, no clues were found.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Lai dialed a video call.
Soon, the phone was connected, and an old man in a nightgown with a clear appearance appeared in the video screen.
"Boy, why do you have time to call me today?" the other party asked with a smile.
"Old man, don't pretend to me, haven't you been waiting for my call?"
Hearing this, the old man couldn't help laughing, "It is said that people become old and fine, and your kid is only in his twenties so shrewd, and he will pay it back in the future." After a pause, the old man's words changed, "I heard that you are very restless in QZ City, and the city is full of storms, what's the matter?"
"Idle and boring, just play, do you have an opinion?"
"I dare to have an opinion, just kindly remind you that it's okay to play, but don't go too far. โ
"Okay, I won't talk nonsense with you. Jiang Lai said in a deep voice: "You told me the news that Andrew is coming to China, didn't you just want to use my forces abroad to find out the situation?"
When it came to business, the old man immediately restrained his smile and asked seriously, "Have you gained something?"
"Andrew's purpose in coming to China is for the deep space program!"
"Deep Space Project?" the old man frowned slightly, "What is this?"
"This is a secret of the Temple, and it is not convenient for me to divulge it to you, but I can warn you that the consequences of the Deep Space Project may be far more serious than you think. If you don't want Andrew to make trouble in China, it's best to find a way to stop him. โ
"Got it. The old man nodded and said, "I will send someone to notify all airports in the country, keep an eye on Andrew's whereabouts, and as long as he dares to enter, I will expel him immediately." โ
"The King of the Templars has many capacities, and he may borrow one of them to enter the country, and I will send you a record later, which may save you a lot of trouble. โ
"Thanks, boy. โ
"Yes, it should be regarded as repaying your favor. After a pause, Jiang Lai said: "Since Andrew has come to Huaguo, this opportunity ......."
"I understand. The old man smiled and said, "Don't worry, I won't interfere in the grievances between you and Andrew, just let go of what you want to do." As long as I can stop Andrew from rioting in China, I can help you within my mandate. โ
"Old man, you're interested. โ
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lai slowly exhaled a breath and looked at Pilsen, "You go and clean up, and call Liu Lao to go abroad immediately." โ
"Go abroad?" Pilson was stunned, his face full of puzzlement.
"When Andrew comes to Huaguo, he will definitely let the elite of the temple accompany him to protect his own safety, and when the time comes, I will find a way to kill Andrew, and if I can't kill him, I will also drag him down and buy time for you. โ
Hearing this, Pilson suddenly realized, "Young Master, although Andrew is not in the temple, but with our strength alone, I'm afraid it will ......"
"I know your concern. Jiang Lai lit a cigarette and took a deep breath into his lungs. Under the smoke swirling, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, revealing a faint smile, and said meaningfully: "Pilson, do you really think I, the king of the Temple, will not have any hole cards? โ
"Understood!"
After seeing Pilsen leave, Jiang Lai couldn't help but smile, whether it was Pilson, or several bigwigs in the Chinese military, they all underestimated themselves too much, and really thought that he, the king of the Temple, would have nothing after leaving the Temple?
His teacher had taught him to prepare for the worst in whatever he did. From the moment he ascended the throne, he began to prepare for his own future.
After smoking a cigarette, he picked up his phone and dialed a number that only he knew.
As the phone was connected, a deep voice came: "Your Majesty, what do you command?"
"Gather your men and prepare for war. โ
"Yes!"
