Shi Lei's retirement had indeed shocked the entire Qingdao region for a while. However, as time went by, this matter would be forgotten within a short week. People would be constantly brought into a new world by new topics. Which celebrity had left, which celebrity had cheated … The entertainment news was enough to divert people's attention.
However, there was one person who couldn't accept this fact no matter what! This person was naturally Yang Zhen. Yang Zhen definitely couldn't accept this. He had spent too much energy on Shi Lei. Even if he could call it even … However, when it came to Xu Yun's matter, it wasn't fair at all!
Xu Yun's villa's real estate certificate had been completed, and the renovations were basically done. Only the furniture and appliances were left. Everything else was settled, and he had already spent close to two million yuan. If all the furniture and furnishings were completed, it would probably cost him another two million yuan.
Yang Zhen definitely couldn't accept this matter. He simply didn't care about it anymore. Whoever wanted to do the rest could do it! He didn't even tell Xu Yun about the renovation team leaving. It was only when Bai Xiaoye noticed that no one was working for the past few days on her way home that she told Xu Yun about it.
Xu Yun could guess what Yang Zhen was thinking. What was the use of a retired big shot who had already retired? In the future, no matter what happened, Shi Lei's words wouldn't be of any use. Then, what was the point of playing with him?
If the real estate certificate hadn't been in Xu Yun's hands today, Yang Zhen would probably have directly fallen out with him. Unfortunately, the rice had already been cooked long ago. Even if Yang Zhen had ten thousand regrets, he didn't have the chance anymore.
This matter had already tormented Yang Zhen for several days. He couldn't wait to rush to Xu Yun and ask for the twenty million yuan back! However, it was written clearly in black and white. Even if it escalated to a lawsuit, he wouldn't be able to gain anything from this matter.
No, Yang Zhen couldn't sleep for several nights. His mind was filled with this matter. Seeing that the Tang Group had already started to explore the affordable housing area, Yang Zhen became more and more envious. If he won the project that day, he wouldn't be calculative with Shi Lei.
However, before Shi Lei retired, he had helped the Tang Corporation enter the Bureau of Housing and Urban-Rural Development. It's fine if you don't stop me! He didn't even let them stop him, so he was shot by Wang Qing! The more Yang Zhen thought about it, the angrier he got. Why didn't he get Wang Qing to kill you?!
Yang Zhen took a deep breath. He had to find Shi Lei and get the money back. Now that Shi Lei had washed his hands of the underworld, he was no longer a member of the underworld. If there was anything, he wouldn't look for people from the underworld. Naturally, his underlings had become mere decorations.
Yang Zhen couldn't care less and tried to find a few other people to help him get the money back. What surprised Yang Zhen was that he found a few people, but they all rejected his request. Even if he could take out 20% of the debt as a reward, no one was willing to step forward.
This was because Yang Zhen didn't know that on the day Shi Lei retired, Bureau Chief Chen Wei had also appeared. Thus, these people didn't dare to act rashly. Even if they wanted to, they didn't have the guts to earn the money.
Yang Zhen didn't know about this matter. He thought that there would definitely be brave men with a huge reward! Finally, he got a response from Qi Xiao Bei. Obviously, Qi Xiao Bei also knew that this wasn't a good thing, but he couldn't resist the temptation of money. This was a 20 million debt.
Of course, Qi Xiao Bei also put forward his own condition. He wanted 30% of the debt! He was also a greedy person. He asked for an extra 2 million. Ruthless. He was too ruthless.
Yang Zhen really couldn't do anything about it. Moreover, Qi Xiao Bei was one of the most powerful people in Qingdao. Thus, he had no choice but to follow Qi Xiao Bei's wishes. So be it if he had to pay more money! As long as he could get the money back, he would still pay less.
In the end, Qi Xiao Bei couldn't resist the temptation of money. He became the first person to cause trouble for Shi Lei after he retired.
Of course, Qi Xiao Bei had not reached the point where he would directly go to Shi Lei to collect the debt. He contacted Shi Lei and said that he wanted to treat Shi Lei to tea. Shi Lei pondered for a long time but still couldn't figure out what he meant. Initially, Shi Lei didn't want to agree. However, Qi Xiao Bei said that it was not a matter of the underworld. It was just a matter of drinking tea and chatting.
Shi Lei actually believed his nonsense. He really went to the teahouse that Qi Xiao Bei had agreed to meet him at.
Ever since Shi Lei retired, he had been adjusting his mood at home. He took care of the flowers and plants, trying to get rid of the underworld aura on him as soon as possible.
"Brother Lei, please come in." Qi Xiao Bei was surprisingly polite. He brought Shi Lei to a private room. While he brewed a cup of Tieguanyin, he looked at Shi Lei with a smile. "It seems like Brother Lei's complexion is not bad. You must be very happy these days."
Shi Lei smiled. "Yes. It's pretty good. Every day is like cultivating. It's very comfortable."
"Hahaha. In the end, people just want to live a carefree life." Qi Xiao Bei smiled and said, "Come, Brother Lei. Have a taste of my tea. This tea is not from their teahouse. It's made by my friend. It's the best Tieguanyin. Look at the color and smell the fragrance."
"It's not bad. It's really the best." Shi Lei knew a little about tea. This Tieguanyin tea had the fragrance of orchids. It was not bitter or astringent. It was smooth and there was no feeling of obstruction. After drinking it, there was a sweetness in the throat. It spread throughout the mouth and did not fade for a long time.
"It's a good tea." Qi Xiao Bei said and poured another cup of tea for Shi Lei.
Shi Lei looked around the environment of the teahouse. He could vaguely hear the voices of the people next door and outside. It was obvious that this was not a place where normal people would come to. It should be Qi Xiao Bei's small base.
"Xiao Bei, you really asked me to come here just to drink tea, right?" Shi Lei said. "If you want to ask me about the things in my territory, then forget it. Most of my brothers have already left. As for those who still want to stay, I won't ask them. It's up to you to solve your own problems. "
Qi Xiao Bei smiled. "Brother Lei, I know the rules. The rules of the underworld are to be solved by the people in the underworld. Since you've already left, I won't get involved with you. Now, the only person who dares to fight with me for territory is Bi Renjun. I have the geographical advantage and he has the support. Now, let's see who will get the right timing! "
Shi Lei did not participate in the conversation. He did not want to talk too much about these messy things in the underworld. He only wanted to say that the two of them could forget about getting the right timing. Chen Wei's arrival in Qingdao meant that the two of them had already destroyed the right timing, geographical advantage, and support.
Seeing that Shi Lei did not say anything, Qi Xiao Bei smiled again. "Brother Lei, other than drinking tea, I really have something to talk to you about."
"As long as it's not about the underworld, you can talk to me about anything." Shi Lei drank his tea.
Qi Xiao Bei nodded. "Indeed, it's not about the underworld. It's like this. I have a friend who is in the real estate business. Some time ago, he wanted to get an affordable housing project. So, he asked a big brother to help him. In the end, the big brother used this matter to help his friend buy a villa at a very low price. This made him lose twenty million. "
When Qi Xiao Bei said this, Shi Lei's eyes widened.
"In the end, he did not get the affordable housing project. Moreover, the big brother who promised to help him helped his competitor." Qi Xiao Bei continued, "So now, he regrets it. He wants to take back the twenty million that the big brother earned. Brother Lei, what do you think should be done?"
Shi Lei put down the teacup in his hand. "Yang Zhen wants you to help him blackmail me?"
"Brother Lei, don't say it like that. This is not blackmail." Qi Xiao Bei stopped smiling. "Was what I said just now the truth? Do you admit it? "
