Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Chapter 180: Extortion

Zhang Yi calmly said, "Mr. Lu, don't joke around like this. Do you think a small manager like me has that power?"

Lu Fengda snorted coldly. "Zhang Yi, I've lived many years and seen more things than you can imagine. Do you think I'd say this without evidence?"

"Let me tell you, through your phone network, I can gather much information about you." He spoke firmly, "You definitely have the stolen goods from the Walmart warehouse!"

Killing intent filled Zhang Yi's eyes as he cursed inwardly: Damn old man! I'll definitely kill you!

Cloud Manor truly lives up to its reputation as the top wealthy district in Tianhai City, with hidden talents everywhere. This was something Zhang Yi hadn't considered, and he couldn't have anticipated it.

The world is unpredictable!

Zhang Yi knew he couldn't hide things any longer and coldly replied, "I do have some of the goods, but I sold most of them for cash. After all, there's not enough space at home to store everything."

Lu Fengda nodded, finding this explanation reasonable. He didn't believe all the stolen goods were in Zhang Yi's possession because, in his logic, there was no such thing as a spatial ability.

"So, do you agree to my terms?"

Zhang Yi knew that Lu Fengda could spread the word and possibly let everyone know he had the stolen goods. Not to mention, the whole city of Tianhai would covet his goods. If investigated deeply, his spatial ability could be exposed. That would be the end!

Zhang Yi knew there were many powerful forces hidden in Tianhai City. Those with power and influence were lying low, armed to the teeth. Even with strong protection, Zhang Yi didn't want to invite trouble.

He rubbed his forehead and said to Lu Fengda in a deep voice, "Fine, I can give you some goods. But you must keep this absolutely secret! Otherwise, I'll kill you first!"

Lu Fengda was ecstatic and repeatedly agreed, "Don't worry, I'm not stupid. This matter stays between us. Let's work happily together, haha!"

Seeing his goal achieved, Lu Fengda laughed heartily. Then he started listing his demands, "I need food, white liquor, underwear, and cotton socks... Bring these to me."

Zhang Yi asked, "How should I deliver these to you?"

Lu Fengda hesitated momentarily and said, "I live in Villa 302. Drop the goods at my door!"

"Don't try any tricks, or I'll expose your secret. Then you'll have no peace!"

Zhang Yi said, "Rest assured, I'm living quite comfortably now and don't want any trouble."

After saying this, Zhang Yi hung up the phone, his eyes filled with intense killing intent. He had been extorted! Lu Fengda must die, no doubt about it!

Killing intent flooded Zhang Yi's mind. He wanted to grab a gun and storm into Lu Fengda's house to kill him immediately! But reason told him this was unwise. Lu Fengda, an old fox, wouldn't give his address if he feared Zhang Yi would come after him.

Zhang Yi took several deep breaths. He rubbed his head, feeling unable to stay calm, his thoughts overheating.

Thinking this, he left the basement to find Zhou Ke'er. Zhou Ke'er was sitting on the couch in the living room reading a book. She wore a light purple tank top and shorts, her long, smooth legs crossed on the couch, her fair feet delicate and cute. Zhou Ke'er, with her model's body, had particularly eye-catching legs, which Zhang Yi liked the most.

He walked over, covering her face with his hands from behind and kissing her lips hard. Sweet, cool, and tasty.

"Baby, I need to talk to you about something."

Zhou Ke'er smiled, curling her legs up and tilting her head, "Sure!"

Zhang Yi sat next to her, took her water cup, and drank a sip.

"Here's the thing, our location has been discovered."

He briefly explained Lu Fengda's situation to Zhou Ke'er, hiding his plundering of the Walmart warehouse. He only told her that Lu Fengda knew he had a lot of goods and was blackmailing him.

After listening, Zhou Ke'er also felt it was troublesome. Zhang Yi said, "You've dealt with people like this more than I have. In your understanding, what will he do?"

Zhou Ke'er thought seriously for a while before cautiously sharing her thoughts. "I've indeed dealt with such people. They may not be as omniscient as ordinary people think, but their intelligence is definitely high!"

She looked at Zhang Yi and added, "And their moral standards are extremely low!"

"A person with high moral standards cannot be a successful businessman."

Zhang Yi nodded, "I understand that!"

Countless well-known entrepreneurs have ended up in jail. The dirty secrets behind the scenes are unavoidable. Without a low moral baseline, building a big business is impossible.

"I want to kill him. But I'm worried he has contingencies, so I don't dare to act."

"But letting him live means being blackmailed by him, which I absolutely cannot tolerate!"

Zhou Ke'er nodded. She understood Zhang Yi's temper.

"His greatest threat to you is his information. If leaked, it could pose a threat to you, right?"

Zhang Yi nodded, "Exactly."

Zhou Ke'er frowned, lightly biting her pinky finger, mumbling, "That would be terrible!"

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Yi asked.

Zhou Ke'er looked at him, her eyes shining. "I heard a story before. An internet mogul was colluding with a corrupt official. Later, the official was investigated, leading to the mogul. To eliminate evidence, the official had the mogul killed. But eventually, the evidence in the mogul's possession was exposed online!"

Zhang Yi said, "I seem to have heard that story too. The mogul stored evidence on a cloud drive with an automatic upload program. Only by manually stopping it daily could he prevent it from uploading."

"So, once he died, the evidence spread online the next day."

Zhou Ke'er nodded. "That's my biggest fear! Even if you kill him, it might not stop our information from leaking!"
