Chapter 889 Chen Ping's Cruelty

After regaining consciousness, Chen Ping smiled awkwardly, and quickly changed the subject: "Tell me about the Huo family in Nanming Province, how strong is it? The information you gave is too much. I really can’t finish reading it, can you give me a summary, just talk about it briefly?”

Li Qian nodded without hesitation.

If it's just a brief summary, there is no need for information at all, and Li Qian just opened her mouth.

"Have you ever heard of the Hidden Family?" Before talking about the Huo family, Li Qian asked a question first.

Chen Ping pondered for a while, then shook his head. He didn't have this concept in his mind.

Li Qian nodded, and then said softly: "Hidden families are some family powers that are invisible and unknown to ordinary people. In China, there are actually many such family powers."

"These hidden families are not necessarily completely unknown, but their main strength must be hidden under the water."

"Don't look at the seemingly clear situation in China's business world today. Those giant companies seem to be invincible, but in fact, many hidden families are not weaker than those giant companies."

"It's just that there may be many companies controlled by these hidden families. The combined strength is very powerful, but these companies do not belong to one person, but to the entire family, so ordinary people cannot judge a hidden family. How many industries and powers there are!"

"In many provinces in China, there are such hidden families. In Nanming Province, there are two family forces that deserve our Pingyu Group's careful treatment, the Huo family and the Wang family."

"These two families can be regarded as deeply entrenched in Nanming Province, and compared with ordinary group companies, the power of these two families is huge, and it is not comparable to ordinary group companies."

"The Huo family among them has a history of about 120 years. It is just the foundation alone, and it is by no means comparable to those group companies with a lifespan of only a few years or more than ten years. With so many years of family history, the Huo family Outsiders probably have no way of accurately judging how many cards there are, but based on the information I know, there are 19 companies directly controlled by the Huo family, who indirectly control or occupy a certain share of the company. , There are 42 companies! Most of these companies are in Nanming Province, but there are also a few companies in other places, but those companies are not important to the Huo family and can be ignored."

"On the whole, the Huo family's status in Nanming Province is even higher than our Pingyu Group's status in Dongjiang Province. It is absolutely terrifying!"

"Only the assets owned by the Huo family, and the companies that can be found by our Li family and the Yang family are worth as much as 300 billion! As for the background of the Huo family, outsiders have no way to know. I am afraid that there are at least hundreds of them. Hundreds of millions! This is a conservative estimate!"

"After all, in the process of a family's development, the background is important. However, after more than a hundred years of development, there will still be certain disturbances. Although the family background is constantly accumulating, it is also constantly being consumed. Therefore, at least Tens of billions, but it is very likely to exceed hundreds of billions!"

"Of course, the background of this family may not be cash, and I just use money to estimate a rough figure."

"It may be difficult for you to understand what I am talking about, but I can give you the simplest example. For example, our Li family, I am only a member of the third generation of the Li family. The real background of the Li family, I I only know part of it, but I can tell you about this part."

"Our Li family has a treasury. Of course, this treasury is only one of the many heritages of the Li family.

In this treasury, as far as I know, there are about 30 tons of gold, various jade, gemstones, etc., with a total value of about 10 billion! "

Chen Ping was stunned for a moment, the Li family is also one of the hidden families?

Don't many people know about the Li family?

But thinking about what Li Qian said just now, Chen Ping understood.

I originally thought that the Li family was strong in other aspects, not too strong in business, but in fact, the strength of the Li family in business was probably hidden under the water, and I couldn't see it.

However, I have to say that what Li Qian said shocked Chen Ping's heart.

A treasury is just a part of the Li family's many backgrounds, and it has such amazing wealth!

Thirty tons of gold!

What kind of scene should they be piled up in a vault?

This is just a family!

It's hard to think about what kind of heritage each of the major hidden families in China has.

It wasn't until now that he realized what kind of power was behind these big families.

The Huo family in Nanming Province is just a family. Compared with the Li family, there is still a huge gap. It is just a hidden family in a certain province.

But such a hidden family already possesses at least tens of billions of wealth just because of their background alone!

And everyone knows very well that for a family, the most important background is not just the background of wealth, but also many other aspects!

Like networking!

Although the current Pingyu Group has spanned three provinces, a huge network of contacts has been established in these three provinces, but how does it compare with the Huo family?

In Nanming Province, to what extent has the Huo family's network of contacts reached?

These people present only need to simply think about a number to realize it.

120 years!

The Huo family is already a family with a history of 120 years!

After 120 years of accumulation and development, how huge is the Huo family's network of contacts in Nanming Province?

In such a family, there are at least dozens, or even hundreds of members, just for the core members!

As for the side branches in the family, I am afraid there are countless!

In Southern Jiangsu Province, the Zhao family is already the largest family, and many important departments in the Zhao Group are run by the Zhao family.

But the whole Zhao family, even counting those ordinary relatives, is far from the number of core members, only a few dozen people.

As for the direct descendants of the Zhao family, that is, the line of Zhao Wensheng, there may be no more than a dozen people at most.

But the Huo family is different!

The Huo family's direct descendants already number dozens to hundreds!

If you count the collateral, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of people are possible!

Coupled with some existences attached to the Huo family, or people with foreign surnames, there are countless!

After all, in this kind of traditional family, although the woman is also a member of the family, she can never be regarded as one of the core members of the direct line of the family. As for the woman's husband, she has a foreign surname.

After Lin Lin finally figured it out, there are probably more than a thousand people who are directly controlled by the Huo family alone!

In addition to those attached to the Huo family, in the entire Nanming province, how huge is the power belonging to the Huo family?

Moreover, in Nanming Province, there is not only one Huo family, but also a Wang family!

This means that the strength of the Wang family will definitely not be much worse than that of the Huo family!

One province, two families, and the combined strength of these two families, how terrifying would it be?

And if it is in Dongshan Province, among Dongshan Province, the Dongshan Yang family is the dominant existence in Dongshan Province, there is no other family that can compete with Dongshan Yang family!

It also means that the power of the Dongshan Yang family in Dongshan Province may exceed the sum of the Huo family and the Wang family in Nanming Province!

What's more, the scope of influence of the Yang family in Dongshan is not just Dongshan province!

So, how terrifying is the real power of such a top family in China?

Chen Ping could only sigh in his heart, horror!

But even though he sighed, Chen Ping didn't show any fear on his face, instead he calmly asked: "Is there another Wang family?"

Li Qian smiled, then nodded lightly, and after pondering for a while, briefly introduced the situation of the Wang family.

However, Li Qian did not have ready-made complete information on hand after all, so she could only dictate a summary, so what she said was not detailed.

After listening to Li Qian's brief introduction to these two families, Chen Ping also realized that such a powerful hidden family also needs to be treated with caution and not be too careless.

It seems that when we go back, we still need to carefully study the information of these two families in order to cope with all kinds of changes!

At this moment, Nie Wei rushed back with a big bag of tools.

Opening the bag, Chen Ping looked calm. Although Li Qian was strong, her face turned pale. Nie Wei expressed indifference.

Three men tied to a pole, expressing despair.

But this is what they deserve.

Chen Ping said that he did it himself, so he really did it himself.

It doesn't need to be too bloody and terrifying to bring someone pain.

There are also different types of fear.

Chen Ping, who has studied psychology for a few days and considers himself a half-hearted psychology enthusiast, knows very well that when a person is on the verge of desperation, even a small sudden sound can make people completely collapse and feel infinite fear , It is not impossible to scare to death directly!

Whether it is mental fear or physical pain, there are different ways of expression.

Chen Ping is not a perverted professional cruel official, but he still has some ideas about how to bring extreme pain to people.

Very simple reason.

There are different types of mental fear, such as the fear of seeing a big knife slashing towards you like lightning when you are completely unable to resist, and the fear of seeing a silver needle, bit by bit, millimeter by millimeter. The one-millimeter approach and the fear of being pierced into one's own body are completely different.

Which is scarier?

Chen Ping thinks it is the latter.

The same goes for physical pain.

Why in ancient times, Ling Chi was regarded by many people as the cruelest punishment and the most painful way to die?

It can be summed up in one sentence, because it is slow!

In Chen Ping's view, pain has both length and breadth.

The length is the time axis, and the width is the pain series.

Although the top-level pain is terrifying, if it is overdone, it will die soon, and it will not be painful.

Therefore, the pain of the next level, the pain that happens to hover at the limit of the person who suffers the pain, is the most painful!

Therefore, there is no need to be too bloody to make a person suffer.

Ling Chi and Chen Ping don't know how to do it, and no one knows how to do it now. It's not easy for a craftsman these days.

But Chen Ping can give needles.

On the one hand, it can bring spiritual fear, on the other hand, it can also prolong the painful time of these bastards. Is it possible to kill two birds with one stone?

On top of that there is also a live guide.

For the understanding of human body structure, Nie Wei is not as comprehensive as the doctor, but he definitely understands all the weaknesses of the human body better than the doctor!

For example, where is more deadly, where is more painful.

With Nie Wei pointing it out, it was as if Chen Ping had found a few mice and kept experimenting with acupuncture on them.

It's just a little cruel that the needles he used were about three millimeters in diameter.

Don't think it's very thin, have you ever seen an awl? thicker than that!
