Chapter 77 Using money to save Zheng's father? Zheng Tian: No, that's my money!
"Mom, you're back. What did Lawyer Huang say?"
Seeing Mrs. Zheng return, Zheng Tian asked anxiously.
"It's not good. Lawyer Huang said that if no one speaks up for him, your father will likely face a Prison sentence of ten years or more."
"Ten years or more? Is it that serious?"
When Zheng Tian heard this number, he was slightly stunned. After all, this was a Prison sentence of over ten years. The conditions in Prison were so harsh, and with his father already in his 50s, he would be over 60 by the time he got out.
"What did you expect? This matter is huge... By the way, Xiao Tian, Mom wants to ask you, when you were abroad, how much money did your father give you?"
"Huh? What?"
"I mean, how much money did your father transfer to you back then?"
Hearing this, Zheng Tian was slightly stunned.
"Mom, why are you asking this question out of the blue?"
Mrs. Zheng sighed.
"Lawyer Huang just told me that Zheng Jie has already had people submit evidence of your gambling and illegal transfer of assets abroad. But I don't know the specific amount. So, Xiao Tian, tell Mom exactly how much money your father transferred to you back then?"
When Zheng Tian was abroad, he spent money lavishly and bought several luxury mansions, which required funding. Therefore, Father Zheng provided money to Zheng Tian through overseas companies. Although nominally it was for the development of overseas branches, in reality, this money was all for Zheng Tian to live a life of debauchery. The Zheng Group had found evidence of this and filed a report.
"Specifically... it should be around 1 billion, right? Maybe more... Mom, how could Zheng Jie... do this?"
Zheng Tian sat on the sofa at this moment, his face full of helplessness.
He had thought that everything would be over once he got out, but he hadn't expected Zheng Jie's attacks to be even more ferocious, completely beyond his imagination.
"1 billion? That much?"
The moment she heard this number, Mrs. Zheng's face was filled with despair. If that was the case, there would be a 5 billion fine. 5 billion! The family currently had a total of 20 billion, and they still needed to pay 4 billion in Bank loans, otherwise, the mortgaged assets couldn't be recovered. That would leave them with 16 billion. Now, they needed to pay out another 5 billion, leaving them with 11 billion. Plus the money for the Zheng Group, having 10 billion left would be lucky.
A whole 20 billion, and half of it was about to be gone. Mrs. Zheng's heart was filled with mixed feelings. How she wished someone could come and help her at this moment! But where were such people?
"Son, it's really dangerous now."
"Sigh."
Mrs. Zheng sat on a chair, her face full of mixed emotions.
"Son... do you think if we give the money to Zheng Jie, it might... solve this trouble?"
Hearing this, Zheng Tian's face showed disbelief.
"Mom, what are you saying? Give the money to Zheng Jie? 20 billion?"
"It's about that much... yes, 20 billion. The most urgent task now is to get your father out. If we give the money to Zheng Jie and he is willing to help, perhaps..."
Mrs. Zheng had no other options left at this point. It seemed like this was the only way. Hearing this, Zheng Tian was unwilling in his heart.
The reason was simple. Zheng Tian knew the family's situation very well: there were no so-called assets left. This money was their final capital. If they gave this money to Zheng Jie now, he would have nothing left.
Even if they gave this money to Zheng Jie, the Villa he was currently living in would be gone, and his shops would be gone. For Zheng Tian, this was completely unacceptable.
Over the years, Zheng Tian had been living a life of debauchery, requiring millions every month. In the past, the family had money, so these millions didn't matter, but for the current Zheng family, it was not like that.
If all this money were gone, their family would instantly become paupers, or even end up in debt. This was unacceptable to Zheng Tian.
"Mom, think about it. Even if we give the money to Zheng Jie this time, are you sure he won't do other things to target our family? Mom, believe me, based on Zheng Jie's behavior, he will definitely do that."
"This guy is an out-and-out madman, a madman who only cares about achieving his goals."
Although Zheng Tian said this, in the end, he just didn't want the family to be left with nothing. In his view, this money was even more important than Father Zheng. If Father Zheng knew his eldest son, whom he regarded as his life, had such thoughts, one wondered what his mood would be.
Mrs. Zheng naturally didn't know Zheng Tian's thoughts.
She listened to Zheng Tian's words and thought seriously... it seemed her son had a point.
But if they didn't do this, there was no way for her husband to get out right now...
At this moment, Mrs. Zheng was conflicted.
