The implementation of the four trillion plan gave the major companies that were hit by the financial crisis some time to recover.
The real estate market started to show signs of recovery.
Some real estate giants started to fight for the first round of land in 2008.
After March of 2008, the market was no longer as tense as before.
With Li Dong taking over the land in the capital as a dividing point, from then on, the era of various land kings appearing frequently last year was gone forever.
In November, some real estate developers started to fight for land in the market.
The land trading market also started to prosper.
During this period, Li Dong had been keeping a low profile. It was one of the rare quiet times of the year.
Since the beginning of the year, Li Dong's actions in 2008 had never stopped.
He would make a big move every three to five days. However, since the end of October, after the successful financing on Weibo, more than half a month had passed. Li Dong did not have any presence at all.
To other entrepreneurs, half a month was nothing. No one would notice if there was no movement for half a year.
However, Li Dong was a troublemaker. He did not make any moves for more than half a month. This made the netizens who liked to join in the fun become restless.
Initially, everyone thought that Li Dong would continue to show off when the real estate market recovered.
For example, Li Dong would spend a lot of money at a certain land auction and suppress all the heroes in one fell swoop, obtaining the land. That would be something they would love to see.
However, now, other real estate developers were fighting for land, but Li Dong did not do anything. This was not his style at all!
…
Naturally, Li Dong could not be bothered to fight for land now.
Far away's land area could not even be developed. How could he be in the mood to fight for land?
At this stage, Li Dong did not have the time to do anything. He had to wait until December to do so.
In December, China Resources and Far away officially cooperated!
In December, he had to go to Beijing to discuss cooperation with Gome. He also had to discuss with the government about the payment license and the scope of the pilot program for home appliances to the countryside.
He might even have to prepare for the retail alliance in December.
In short, he could not be idle this year.
November was one of the few months where he could have some peace and quiet.
In addition, Li Dong had recently been ascetic, so he didn't have much energy. There were some things that he didn't need to participate in, so he didn't want to get involved.
Ever since he invited the fellow villager from the investigation team to a banquet and got the fellow villager's promise to help push the case forward, Li Dong finally had some free time.
When he was bored, he would go to the club to play ball and taunt Hsu Shengzhe. Li Dong was so busy that he gained a few pounds.
Li Dong had gained weight. Logically speaking, Tan Yong had not been working much recently, so he should have gained some weight.
After all, Li Dong didn't have to run around, so he didn't have to keep an eye on him all the time or be on standby 24 hours a day.
Generally speaking, Li Dong should have at least two chauffeurs and a group of bodyguards.
But the reality was that Li Dong only had one chauffeur and bodyguard.
Even though Li Dong lived a regular life and rarely went out at night, he didn't stay at home all the time. So, Tan Yong was on standby almost all year round.
Sometimes, when Li Dong was idle, Tan Yong had to worry about the security.
The security company was now managed by Zheng Long, Cao Hongbing, and a few professional managers.
But Tan Yong was still the manager of the security company. Even if he was their boss in name, they couldn't just ignore him.
At least, the protection of Li Dong and the people around Li Dong had always been arranged by Tan Yong.
Cao Hongbing and the rest were only in charge of the training. They didn't care how the trained people were arranged or who would be protected.
Tan Yong personally made the specific arrangements.
The people protecting Li Dong were naturally the most elite and the most loyal. Many of them were old people Far away and had gone to some overseas institutions for professional training.
Secondly, Li Dong's parents were also elites, but they were slightly weaker than Li Dong's side.
Secondly, there were Li Dong's women.
Whether it was Shen Qian, Qin Yuhan, or Yuan Xue, these people were all alone, but there were people secretly watching them at all times to prevent accidents.
Among the women, only Shen Qian knew about this. The others didn't know.
It wasn't that Li Dong didn't tell them on purpose, but he was afraid of trouble.
Shen Qian didn't care. She was born into that kind of family and could understand why Li Dong sent people to protect her.
Qin Yuhan and Yuan Xue came from ordinary families after all. If they knew that there were people around them, they might feel awkward and have to hide in the dark.
Instead of that, it was better to protect them in secret.
Originally, protecting Li Dong was the most difficult. After all, he was the richest man and had offended many people, so it was very troublesome to protect him.
As for the others, it was much easier and there was almost no danger.
The domestic environment determined that unless there was a special situation, there was almost no risk.
The bodyguards who protected Li Dong's women were almost paid for nothing.
Many people in the security team wanted to do this kind of easy work. Some of the elites who protected Li Dong had this idea, at least it was comfortable.
Before, Tan Yong generally didn't ask too much about other people's affairs. Usually, they would summarize once a month or inform him when there was an emergency.
For a long time, only the appearance of Liu Qing a while ago made everyone nervous.
It had been calm recently. As Li Dong stopped fighting, it was reasonable to say that Tan Yong could also rest.
But now, Tan Yong was very busy and confused.
In the past few days, there were some special situations in the team that followed Qin Yuhan and the team that followed Yuan Xue.
It was not that they encountered danger, but it made people speechless. They met a handsome man!
Yes, Yuan Xue met a handsome man. After Yuan Xue, Qin Yuhan also met a handsome man.
This was not a big deal. It was normal for women, especially unmarried women, to be surrounded by flies.
But Tan Yong faintly noticed that something was wrong!
First of all, the sudden appearance of these men was too abrupt. There was no prior preparation, they just popped out just like that.
Second, there was no shortage of outstanding men in this world. There were too many of them!
But at this moment, these men who appeared were the best of the best.
Whether it was appearance, education, quality, conversation, or family, they were all outstanding. Or not outstanding, but the kind that suited people's taste.
On Yuan Xue's side, Bai Qing, like Yuan Xue, had studied abroad. Her family background was not rich, but it was very compatible with the Yuan family.
In addition, they lived in the same building and worked in the same place. It was convenient for them to go to work together.
The security team even found out something else. For example, the Yuan couple knew each other's parents, and Bai Qing was likely to be Yuan Xue's blind date.
Except for Bai Qing's experience abroad, the security team had found out everything else. Far away, they found out everything.
In conclusion, Bai Qing's appearance was not necessarily a coincidence. It might have been premeditated.
Otherwise, let's talk about buying a house. Two people who were going to go on a blind date suddenly bought a house together. How could there be such a big fate!
Another problem was the funding. Although Bai Qing was indeed a small leader, her annual salary was less than 300,000 yuan.
She had only been working for more than a year, and her promotion was recent. Bai Qing had paid a down payment of one million yuan to buy a house, and her parents did not subsidize her much. How did she save so much money?
Of course, there were some things that could not be investigated for the time being. They had to wait for Bai Qing's information abroad to be sent back.
Qin Yuhan's side was similar. Of course, her appearance was not as sudden and coincidental as Bai Qing's.
But he was also young and handsome, the kind of person who started his own business. He was somewhat similar to Qin Yuhan.
Although the other party did not have much contact with Qin Yuhan, he would make his presence known from time to time, which was noticed by the security guards.
After all, she was the boss's woman. With a handsome man around all day long, something bad might happen.
This kind of thing had nothing to do with security, and it was not suitable for the bodyguards to show up. They could only pass the trouble to Tan Yong and see how the boss would deal with it.
When Tan Yong received the news, he also had a headache.
How should he deal with this kind of thing?
Although there were some coincidences and accidents, he was only responsible for safety, not for emotional guidance. Should he threaten those men and ask them to stay away?
If he did this kind of thing for no reason, Qin Yuhan and the others might hate him in the future.
He struggled for a long time, and it was indeed a little sudden.
Tan Yong was afraid that something uncontrollable would really happen. In the end, he decided to talk to Li Dong. This matter could only be left to Li Dong to deal with.
…
Provincial Party Committee Compound.
Li Dong practiced boxing while calculating the date. It seemed to have been a month since he had been examined.
His personal doctor said that he would be fine after resting for a month. Did it mean that he could stop being a monk?
These days, he drove Shen Qian away and went to Shanghai. That was also the rhythm of being a saint, just to solve the problem of the little tadpole not being able to do his job.
After all, he was a young and vigorous man. It did not matter when he was busy with work, but these few days when he was idle, Li Dong always let his imagination run wild and could not calm down.
When Tan Yong arrived, Li Dong noticed. When he arrived, Li Dong said, "Call Doctor Wang and ask him to come to me."
Tan Yong nodded, made a phone call, and talked to Doctor Wang for a while.
Then, after waiting for Li Dong to finish practicing, Tan Yong said, "General Manager Li, there are a few things I need to report to you."
"What is it?"
While wiping his sweat, Li Dong picked up the teapot and took a sip. Without waiting for him to speak, he pinched his arm and said, "I've grown muscles recently. It seems that the exercise is effective."
Tan Yong quickly complimented him and said, "It's related to Miss Qin and Miss Yuan."
Li Dong was stunned and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"
Tan Yong was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice, "There's news from the security guards. Recently, there have been a few strange men around the two ladies …"
"Isn't that normal …"
As Li Dong spoke, he thought that if it was an ordinary man, Tan Yong would not have told him.
Since he told him, there must be something unusual about it.
Thinking of this, Li Dong's face turned slightly cold. He frowned and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Tan Yong did not dare to hide anything and quickly told him what happened.
Li Dong sat down on a chair and drank tea while muttering, "Are they here to steal someone?"
After muttering a few words, Li Dong asked again, "How did Yuhan and the others react?"
"Miss Qin often went to the cafe in the afternoon to have coffee with Miss Qi and met that man several times.
Because they knew each other, they occasionally exchanged a few words, but nothing else happened.
"Miss Yuan's side is a little troublesome. Bai Qing's working hours are the same as theirs, so they almost go the same way.
"In addition, Liu Yue seems to be a little interested in him. She invited him to coffee and dinner several times, and Miss Yuan also went there once.
"Also, because it's not suitable for our people to enter the residential building and enter the elevator, we can only observe from a distance. Sometimes they go in and out at the same time, and we don't know what communication is.
"Fortunately, Miss Yuan is about to resign and can leave L'Oréal at the end of the month. The next step will be simpler."
Li Dong knocked on the stone table and said after a while, "In that case, it doesn't seem to be a big deal. I can't restrict their personal freedom. If I really do that, I will be scolded to death. "However, there should be something wrong with Bai Qing. There are too many coincidences, and their parents have talked about it. By the way, did their parents talk about it first, or did he buy a house in Lin 'an first? "
"This …" Tan Yong said embarrassedly, "It's not convenient for us to inquire about Miss Yuan's parents. We only know that they know each other, and we even asked about the blind date. We don't know when exactly it happened. "However, not long after Bai Qing bought the house, he suddenly decided to buy the house at the beginning of November. "Moreover, the landlord is quite straightforward. He let him move in before the mortgage was paid. This is also something we are puzzled about, but the original landlord is now abroad, so we don't know the specific situation for the time being. "But I have arranged for someone to contact him abroad …"
"Don't bother. There must be something wrong. My intuition tells me that this is premeditated!"
Li Dong snorted and frowned. "I'm not afraid of this. It's just a normal blind date. Why make it so complicated?
Did he know Yuan Xue long ago?
Did he also know that Yuan Xue would not like him, so he made so many preparations?
Or perhaps he really fell in love with Yuan Xue at first sight, and would not marry anyone else but her, and was determined to find Yuan Xue no matter what?
"In addition to Yuan Xue, Yuhan is also like this. She just went to Shanghai not long ago, and it's such a coincidence that she met a young man with the same hobbies and schedule in a cafe.
Damn it, what a coincidence! "
Li Dong scolded and exhaled. "Or, someone has ulterior motives. They know their relationship with me, so they want to disgust me?"
Then, Li Dong denied it himself. "Even if they want to disgust me, they don't have to pay such a big price, do they? After all, it's not easy to find such a person who meets the requirements. They have to put in some effort and spend some money.
Is it worth it just to disgust me?
Or, is there another purpose?
Other than disgust me, what else can they do?
Could it be that they really think that they can steal my woman?
But then again, Old Tan, do you think it's possible? "
Tan Yong quickly said, "Of course not!"
If he said it was possible, it would mean that he was denying Li Dong and causing trouble for himself. Tan Yong was not happy.
Li Dong rolled his eyes at him, rubbed his chin, and said, "I'm definitely not going to succeed. Is there anyone better than me? I, Li Dong, am the most outstanding young man in the world … "
After praising himself for a while, Li Dong coughed dryly and stopped the topic. It was good that he knew about his narcissism. There was no need to tell Old Tan.
However, this matter was indeed a little strange. It was better to be safe than sorry.
Besides, even if there was no 'what if', his woman was surrounded by a few young men. As a man, he would not feel comfortable.
After pondering for a moment, Li Dong said, "Get someone to keep an eye on them. Also, keep an eye on those two people. It's best if you can find a way to get some private information. It's not difficult for you to find out their background. If you don't have enough manpower, send another team over. Yuan Xue is about to resign and is going on a trip. If Bai Qing doesn't follow her, it won't be a big problem. But if she follows … "
A cold glint flashed in Li Dong's eyes. He snorted and said, "Dig out everything about him wetting the bed when he was young. I don't believe that there's such a lover!"
"As for Yuhan, she has to return to Pingchuan after the shop's renovation is done. It's hard to say if she will still go to Shanghai. Can she meet him by chance in Shanghai, or in Pingchuan? In short, try your best to deal with it peacefully. It's normal admiration. I, Li Dong, am not so overbearing that I can't even allow admiration. But if there's another motive … "
Li Dong did not continue. He paused for a moment before saying, "Go and make the arrangements. Also, strengthen the security work recently. Not only them, but also my parents and Shen Qian. Strengthen the security work! If it's not an accident, dig it up. Do you think I'm a fool? How dare someone plot against me at a time like this! "
Tan Yong nodded hurriedly. Then, Li Dong said, "By the way, I haven't been concerned about Capital for some time. Send someone to find out about the situation. Also, Chang Qiqi and Han Yu are abroad, so I don't really care about them. He also sent someone to check on their current situation to prevent any mishaps from happening. As for the rest, you can arrange it yourself. Report to me at any time if there's any news. Don't worry, I'll handle it myself when I've sorted out the situation. "
Tan Yong nodded again. After some consideration, he said, "Should I ask Miss Qin and Miss Yuan to return to Pingchuan now?"
If that was the case, there would be no trouble.
It would be obvious if someone was plotting against them.
Li Dong said angrily, "If I could call them back, would I let you investigate? Should I just say that I'm afraid they've been stolen and that you have to come back? Women nowadays are new women of the new era. They care about democracy and freedom. Unless I'm sick, otherwise … "
Tan Yong said dryly, "Then, why don't you get sick?"
The corner of Li Dong's mouth twitched. Damn it, am I that kind of person?
Besides, why would I curse myself to get sick for no reason?
Although that was what he thought, Li Dong thought for a long time. In the end, he said, "Let's wait and see. Anyway, it'll only take a few days. You go ahead and investigate. If there's no result, I'll try to get sick again."
"Ahem …"
Tan Yong was too embarrassed to continue. He quickly agreed and went to make the arrangements.
As for Li Dong, he sat in the courtyard and thought for a while. He felt that this disgusting method was somewhat familiar.
Of course, he couldn't remember it at the moment. Doctor Wang happened to come to examine him. Li Dong's train of thought was immediately interrupted.
