November 22nd, Light Snow.
The weather in Pingchuan was getting colder and colder.
In the past few days, Li Dong had been living in seclusion and did not appear in front of the media.
There were more heated discussions in the outside world.
The news of Old Huang's arrest was also exposed.
Some people said that Li Dong was afraid and did not dare to show off anymore.
Some people said that Li Dong might have been caught and ended up like Old Huang.
Of course, some things were just discussed casually. As for whether Li Dong was really caught or afraid, those in the know naturally did not think much of it.
…
Lanshan Club.
Ever since Ji Lanxin introduced horse racing and prepared to gamble on horses in the club, Li Dong rarely went there.
Lanshan Club had shares in Longhua previously, and now it was bought over by Hsu Shengzhe in his private capacity. Li Dong usually chose to go there when he was free.
As for the Lanshan Club, it wasn't because it wanted to do business.
More importantly, it was to provide a place for everyone to relax. Hence, its business was naturally not as good as Jinding's.
Hsu Shengzhe also did not want to compete with Jinding's business. Lanshan Club had all the best facilities and the environment was even better than Jinding's.
But most of the time, there were only a few people in such a huge club.
There was no other reason. Hsu Shengzhe had set up a very high admission system.
Far away and Longhua's business partners, or government officials. Of course, there were not many people in the government. Most of them were businessmen. Without a net worth of one billion or eight hundred million, they would be embarrassed to enter.
In the whole of Jiangbei, there were not many people who had the qualifications and were willing to come here.
As a result, although Lanshan Club had reopened, its reputation was even lower than before. There were only a few people who knew about it.
In the tennis court.
After fighting with Hsu Shengzhe, Li Dong took the towel and wiped himself. He smiled and said, "You haven't been exercising much recently. You're even more useless than before. I won't play with you next time."
Hsu Shengzhe panted heavily and shook his head, "Do you think everyone is as free as you? Besides, you're too aggressive, there's no point in fighting you. I'm here to exercise, not to be competitive. "
"Don't talk nonsense. A loss is a loss. If you don't want to win, then what have you been doing in the land exchange market recently?"
"That's different …"
"It's the same logic!"
"Alright, I can't win against you. Let's not talk about this. Why haven't I heard from you recently? I haven't seen you at all. If you're not at home, then you're here to exercise. Don't you care about the company? "
Li Dong sat down and drank a mouthful of water. Then, he smiled and said, "I have been cultivating my body and mind for a year. It's almost the end of the year, so I need to rest. As for you, you've been resting for a year. It's time for you to exercise. "
With that, Li Dong said, "How are your father and brother now?"
Hsu Shengzhe said casually, "My father is fine. He can eat and sleep, but his memory isn't as good as before. As for my brother, he still hasn't woken up. Sigh, he's still so young … "
"Don't disgust me. Cry to the outsiders yourself."
Li Dong couldn't be bothered to watch his performance. He said, "My goddaughter will be celebrating her birthday in a few days. Aren't you planning to have some fun?"
At the mention of his daughter, Hsu Shengzhe immediately smiled and said, "I was about to tell you if you didn't want to tell me. Remember to attend the birthday party next month. Also, don't call me goddaughter. I didn't agree to this. Don't take advantage of my daughter. "
Li Dong smiled and said, "Your Yue Qin agreed. Actually, I was just saying it casually. In the end, your Yue Qin rushed me to acknowledge her as my daughter. You know that I've always been tolerant of women. Your Yue Qin begged me. What else could I do? I reluctantly acknowledged her as my goddaughter. I don't know if I'll have to share my family's assets in the future. "
"Get lost. I don't need your trifling share!"
Hsu Shengzhe rolled his eyes. Share the family's assets? Do you think I'm a fool?
Besides, Hsu Shengzhe didn't really care if it was tens of millions or even hundreds of millions.
With him around, his daughter was destined to live a wealthy life. He didn't need Li Dong to help him raise his daughter.
Of course, if Li Dong insisted on acknowledging her as his goddaughter, he had no objections.
Although he said he didn't want it, he also understood that the identity of Li Dong's goddaughter would be very beneficial to his daughter in the future.
At least, even if he failed, there would be someone to protect his daughter.
As a man, he couldn't be bothered to talk about such things. Hsu Shengzhe knew that his wife had approached Li Dong and didn't stop her.
If not, without his permission, Yue Qin wouldn't look for Li Dong for no reason.
After chatting for a while, Hsu Shengzhe continued. "Recently, the property market has started to pick up. Jia Wenhao wants Longhua to release all the residential buildings before the Lunar New Year. Let everyone feel at ease. Even if they can't move in temporarily, they will feel at ease and have a good Lunar New Year. Do you think I should agree to this? "
Li Dong replied nonchalantly. "Up to you. There are pros and cons to the opening of the market now.
The pros are that the funds can flow back.
Recently, you have been acquiring land everywhere, and it should be hard for you to do so. You have too many properties in the new city, and there are many residential areas.
If you lack funds, you can release some of them.
Although the market is not as good as last year, it has increased a little in the past two weeks. Moreover, the opening of the residential areas is not something that can be done overnight.
If you drag it out for a few months, by December or even 2009, the property prices will start to rise at the end of the year.
When the opening of the market, you will not suffer any losses.
There are cons too. If you drag it out for another six months, you will definitely make more profits. If you open the market earlier, there will be losses.
It depends on how you weigh the pros and cons. Maybe you can earn back the money you lost in six months.
These are all very possible things, and you can also sell Jia Wenhao a favor at the same time. Isn't this the result you want? "
Hsu Shengzhe laughed. "That makes sense. Then, I will sell off a few ordinary residential areas first, so that Jia Wenhao won't rush me. You haven't seen Jia Wenhao for a while, and he has become gloomier recently. His smile is brighter than before, but I'm a little scared. This fellow has changed a lot, and he might take revenge on us in the future. "
Li Dong said calmly, "Then just wait for him to take revenge. If you can feel it, others will feel it even more clearly. The more he acts like this, the more dangerous it is. I think it was better in the past, at least the impression he gave others was better, and he was not as vigilant. Now, he has changed. Just wait and see, the road will be harder than before. Decades later, will I still be afraid of him taking revenge on me? "
"That's true, but we are not officials, and some things are hard to say. Also, Jia Wenhao is your brother-in-law, you should be more polite to him … "
"Get lost!"
Li Dong frowned and scolded, "If you keep talking nonsense, I will get Jia Wenhao to f * ck you up. Your brother-in-law is more or less the same!"
Hsu Shengzhe smiled. "I didn't say it. Someone else spread it last time. What's the use of scolding me?"
Li Dong could not be bothered with him. He looked at the time and said, "I'm going back, talk to you when I'm free."
"Why are you in such a hurry? You've been so secretive recently. What are you busy with? Is it some dirty trick again? Tell me, I promise I won't leak it! "
Li Dong could not be bothered with him and walked straight out.
Hsu Shengzhe did not stand on ceremony either. He stayed where he was and drank, not even bothering to see him out.
Not long after Li Dong left, a young woman swayed her graceful figure into the tennis court.
…
At the entrance of the club.
Li Dong turned his head to look and sighed. "Damn, it's almost become his lair! And he makes me take the blame every time. This kind of b * stard, he should be quiet for the rest of his life! "
Tan Yong, who was in the car, heard this and suggested, "General Manager Li, why don't we start our own club?"
"There's no need. Let's do it. I'm too lazy to do that."
Li Dong shook his head and got in the car. He closed his eyes for a while and said, "Have you found out about the two gigolos?"
"The information has just been sent to the security company. I'll ask Hongbing to send it over later."
"That's good. While there aren't many things to do, let's get rid of these two gigolos first in case anything happens."
Li Dong said that he was not in a hurry and would take his time to investigate, but how could a man really tolerate this kind of thing happening for too long?
Time was short now, so it was not a big deal.
If it dragged on, it would really cause some trouble. He did not know who would be the one disgusting in the end.
Even if he took revenge, it would actually be a loss.
Instead of that, it was better to cut the Gordian knot and solve it as soon as possible.
Knowing that the information would be sent over soon, Li Dong did not ask anymore and continued to close his eyes to take a nap.
After more than half an hour, the car steadily stopped at the entrance of the small courtyard.
Cao Hongbing did not enter the house. He was waiting at the door.
Seeing Li Dong's car stop, he hurriedly went forward to help open the door.
Li Dong got out of the car, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for some time. I heard from Old Tan that your wife is pregnant again. You're good at fighting!"
Cao Hongbing smiled and said embarrassedly, "General Manager Li, don't make fun of me. I've been too free recently, so I had to go home to make a baby."
Li Dong couldn't help but laugh. He kicked him and said, "You don't know how to enjoy life. Why don't you swap with Old Tan?"
Cao Hongbing was about to speak, but he saw Tan Yong, who had just gotten out of the car, staring at him with a faint smile. He suddenly said dryly, "Well, forget it. How can I steal Brother Tan's job?"
They all laughed as they entered the house.
After entering the house, Cao Hongbing took out a few files from the leather bag in his hand and handed them to Li Dong. He said, "Brother Tan asked us to check the situation, but because Bai Qing has experience abroad, it took a little longer. However, we paid a price and found out the general situation. Most of the information about Bai Qing and Liu Weiran is true. In other words, the information given so far is actually true. However, there is a part of it that is blank, which is also the focus of our investigation. After the investigation, we found something interesting … "
Li Dong flipped through the files and said, "Don't keep us guessing. Go straight to the point."
Cao Hongbing laughed and immediately said, "Bai Qing and Liu Weiran don't know each other, nor do they have any contact or communication. They don't even know each other's existence.
However, after our investigation, we found that both of them have the same friend.
Their friend's name is Ding Hongfei. Both of them have frequent phone calls with him.
The house that Bai Qing bought was also bought by Ding Hongfei. Even the down payment was paid by Ding Hongfei.
As for Liu Weiran, Ding Hongfei also helped him a lot.
After Liu Weiran graduated from college, he started a business and opened a mobile phone monopoly chain store, which was considered a small success.
However, some time ago, his company encountered a little trouble, and it was Ding Hongfei who helped solve it.
Moreover, the two of them had something in common. Although they looked gentle and gentle on the surface, they were actually playboys.
When Bai Qing was studying in the United States, he changed girlfriends almost every week. He called himself the Eastern Casanova and was a veteran in love.
Liu Weiran was the same. He was experienced in this area, but he was still entangled with women. However, he handled it very well, and there were no problems.
Also, when Bai Qing was in the United States, he got addicted to gambling.
In the past few years, he lost a lot and borrowed a lot of money, at least one or two million. Our people contacted several of his creditors and inquired about it.
His creditors said that this guy promised to pay back the money in three months.
Liu Weiran didn't gamble, but he spent a lot of money. Coupled with the recent downturn in business and the expenses of several women, he was short of funds.
In short, both of them were short of money, and they were veterans in love.
In addition, they had a friend who was also like them. They were almost timely. When they were short of money, they helped them solve the problem.
All in all, there was definitely something wrong with it.
As for Ding Hongfei, we have also done a lot of investigation … "
Li Dong was much more relaxed at this time. While looking through the information, he smiled and asked, "Who is Ding Hongfei?"
"This guy is also a capable person. He opened his own investment consulting company, which is actually a fiber supplier. He does all kinds of things. We guess that someone must have found these two people through him, and then went to the two ladies through these two people. The ultimate goal may be you. "
Li Dong didn't raise his head and continued to ask, "Did you find out who contacted Ding Hongfei?"
Cao Hongbing hurriedly said, "We did. We checked his recent call records and found quite a number of names on the list. Among them, there were a few phone numbers that he often contacted. But these calls don't have a real name, so we don't know who the other party is for the time being. We have to wait a few days to officially confirm it. "
Li Dong asked, "How much longer?"
Hearing Li Dong's question, Cao Hongbing quickly said, "Three days at most. We will definitely find out!"
Li Dong didn't say much. In this day and age, phone numbers weren't based on real names. Sometimes, it was a little troublesome to find a few unknown numbers.
Cao Hongbing said three days, and Li Dong didn't rush him.
After looking through the information, Li Dong said calmly, "Whether we find out who ordered them or not, there is no doubt that these two people were arranged by someone else. Keep a close eye on them. Don't let anything happen to them! When I find out who is causing trouble behind the scenes, I will teach them a lesson! "
Tan Yong and Li Dong nodded hurriedly. If this was a normal pursuit, it would be fine. Li Dong wouldn't look for trouble with them.
But now, they were obviously sent by someone else. These people would probably be in trouble later.
It was hard to say for other things, but if they schemed against Li Dong in this aspect, Li Dong probably wouldn't let them off easy.
