Chapter 1322 The Field Family

Inside cell number 1, One-Eyed Dragon himself was in a miserable state, wishing he were dead.

Although Ye Bufan did not use True Qi, as a doctor, every punch he threw and every kick he landed hit the opponent's weak points, making them suffer unbearable pain.

At first, these people kept wailing, hoping that the prison guards would come to rescue them, but after waiting for a long time with no movement, they realized they had been abandoned.

"Grandpa, ancestor, we were wrong, please let us go…"

"Boss, boss, from now on, you'll be our boss…"

"Mercy! Stop hitting me, I'm really going to die…"

Every person locked up here was a vicious criminal, who killed without batting an eye and didn't even care about death.

However, Ye Bufan's fighting style made them suffer more than death, and eventually, everyone bowed their heads and begged for mercy, even One-Eyed Dragon himself kowtowed like pounding garlic.

He originally thought that with his Earth Rank Martial Artist cultivation, he could still resist the opponent, but he found that he was no different from the others; he couldn't even block a single slap from the opponent.

At this moment, he realized what a terrifying existence he was facing and immediately bowed his head in submission.

Ye Bufan had also finished fighting; he grabbed a towel and wiped his hands.

"Anyone else not convinced?"

"No, Boss, we're all convinced. From now on, you're our Boss."

The other prisoners spoke in unison, each beaten into submission.

"Since you're all convinced, then from now on, be honest and get on your beds and lie down."

"Yes, Boss."

These people agreed and scrambled back to their beds, huddling there quietly, not daring to make a sound.

They were afraid of angering this man again and bringing unwanted trouble upon themselves.

Ye Bufan resolved these issues and went straight back to his bed, lying there comfortably to rest.

Seeing him like this, the prisoners in the cell finally let out a sigh of relief, and even Big Beard in the monitoring room also let out a long sigh of relief.

Outside the prison, Ye Bufan's arrest had already caused a huge uproar.

At the Lawrence Family, Lu Banxia, Feili, Wei Lai, and George were sitting together in a meeting.

Feili was the first to speak: "Father, I just received confirmed news that Dr. Ye has been sent to the maximum-security prison."

"Don't worry, at least Dr. Ye is not in immediate danger. I'm going to make a call now and mobilize our Lawrence Family's connections to see if there's a way to get him out."

Then George started making calls, one after another.

But just as Creston had anticipated, this matter was too big; killing the Field Family's Young Master meant that even if George personally intervened, no one dared to order his release.

About an hour later, George reluctantly put down his phone.

Lu Banxia said anxiously, "Mr. George, how is it? Is there any hope? Can we rescue Ye Dage?"

"This matter is indeed too far-reaching. We must reach an understanding with the Field Family before we can rescue Dr. Ye."

George said, "How about this, I will personally go to the Field Family to see what conditions they will propose.

As long as they agree, we will rescue Dr. Ye at all costs."

Lu Banxia said, "I'll go with you."

"I'll go too."

Wei Lai didn't say much, but her attitude was firm.

Finally, George took a few people and went to the Field Family.

Inside the Field Family's manor, a stout old man was sitting on a large rattan chair; he was Orlando, the head of the Family.

Across from him was a Xiao Huzi middle-aged man, his son, Robbie, Barkley's father.

"Father, is the Brown Family going too far this time? They actually sacrificed Barkley directly."

Robbie said indignantly; Barkley's death filled him with anger.

"Son, you need to look further."

Orlando looked like a plump, benevolent old neighbor, with only a hint of cunning occasionally flashing in his eyes, making one realize he was an old fox.

He spoke in a teaching tone: "Although Barkley is dead, he has brought huge benefits to our Family and also gained the trust of the Brown Family.

Don't complain. You have several sons, don't care about one person, and don't have any dissatisfaction with the Brown Family. This is very dangerous. Don't forget how our Field Family rose."

The Field Family was also well-known in Apple City, but at most, they were a second-rate Family, and their rise was inextricably linked to the Brown Family; saying they were just a vassal was no exaggeration.

It was precisely because of this that Creston had no scruples when using Barkley to set up the trap, not caring about the Field Family's feelings at all.

In other words, if they angered the Brown Family, the Field Family could be cast into Hell at any time.

Hearing the old man say this, Robbie immediately calmed down: "I understand, Father."

"That's right. I have high hopes for you. You are very likely to inherit the entire Family in the future. You need to have a broader perspective, not a narrow vision, and certainly not be emotional."

"Yes, Father." Robbie asked, "I just don't understand, the other party is just a Chinese boy. What kind of benefits can our Family gain by paying such a high price this time?"

"If he were just an ordinary Chinese person, would the Brown Family go to such great lengths?" Orlando said, "John just came to me. He made it very clear that Ye Bufan owns shares in the entire Angel Pharmaceuticals.

Do you know Angel Pharmaceuticals? That's a large enterprise worth hundreds of billions. It's precisely because of this that the Brown Family is interested.

The reason they acted against Ye this time is to make him hand over ownership of Angel Pharmaceuticals."

Robbie asked puzzled, "Then what can our Family get?"

"The Brown Family Head made it very clear that they only want Angel Pharmaceuticals. Whatever benefits we can gain from the rest will all belong to our Field Family."

At this point, a greedy expression appeared on Orlando's plump face.

"I've already found out that although this Chinese person is young, he is the undisputed richest man in China, with assets worth hundreds of billions.

Now that his weakness is in our hands, our Field Family can completely open its mouth wide and make a huge profit."

"Really? I didn't expect there to be such a fat sheep."

Robbie's face also showed an excited expression, seemingly having forgotten the pain of losing his son.

"Father, what should we do now?"

Orlando said leisurely, "No rush. Ye is in prison, and the initiative is in our hands.

By the way, he's being held in a maximum-security prison, that place is practically Hell, and the Brown Family has already made arrangements in advance, so Ye Bufan must be wishing he were dead. Now, they should be the ones anxious.

I heard that Ye has a good relationship with the Lawrence Family. I guess it won't be long before George comes to negotiate with us."

Just then, the old butler rushed in from outside: "Family Head, Mr. George of the Lawrence Family has arrived."

"They came really fast. It seems the other party is indeed anxious." Orlando's plump face grew even more smug, "Tell them to wait in the living room. I'll be right there."

"Yes!"

The old butler agreed and withdrew.
