They got in the car. Li Dong was not in a hurry to ask questions.
Li Dong gestured for Tan Yong to make a detour. Halfway there, Li Dong asked, "What did you find?"
Zhou Haidong said in a low voice, "Zhu Hongtao is only related to Tang Long for now. I don't know if there are other people plotting in the dark. I think there should be, but they are too well hidden, so we haven't found them yet."
"What do you mean?"
"Tang Long Group just came to Pingchuan. I don't think they have the ability to hide from us."
Li Dong nodded and asked, "What about Han Yu?"
Zhou Haidong said helplessly, "Because Jing City is not our territory, it is difficult to continue to investigate some things. But according to the current information and clues, Han Yu should be involved with Szentai Group. "
"Szentai …"
Li Dong murmured and asked, "What about Parkson?"
"Parkson should be a business secretly controlled by the Jia Family. Han Yu doesn't have much power in it. The 500 million this time should be borrowed from Parkson. In fact, it has little to do with Parkson. The supporter behind Han Yu should be Szentai. Maybe there is more than one Szentai. "
Li Dong gently knocked on the window, thought for a while, and said, "Who is Szentai's supporter?"
Zhou Haidong frowned slightly and said, "It is difficult to find out. We can only analyze through some things on the surface. We can't find some secret transactions for now. But we are not in vain. According to the information we got, Liu Hao holds some shares in Szentai, and he didn't hide it. "
"Liu Hao?"
Li Dong had never heard of this name. He felt strange and asked, "Who is he?"
Zhou Haidong lowered his voice and said a name.
Li Dong narrowed his eyes. So it was him!
He knew Liu Hao's father. He would be a famous person in the future.
Liu Nansong, 53 years old this year, a deputy minister.
From the looks of it, Liu Nansong wasn't that powerful. Although his rank wasn't low and his authority wasn't low, he couldn't control Jiangbei.
However, Li Dong knew that it wouldn't be long before this person would be promoted to the Deputy Director of the National Development and Reform Commission.
At this time, he was a real big shot.
There was no doubt about the importance of the NDRC.
A deputy director was comparable to the number one or two local tycoons. If he could reach this level before the age of 55, if he was lucky, it would not be too difficult for him to reach the level of Du Anmin and the others before the age of 60.
However, Li Dong knew that in the end, this person was unable to continue.
In 2012, a magazine completely ended his career.
Most of the time, there were some things that you couldn't delve too deeply into. It was hard to imagine that a vice-ministerial official, and an important official at that, would fall in the hands of a small deputy editor.
Li Dong couldn't be bothered to analyze the inside story.
However, when the magazine broke the news, it said that his son held shares in a number of groups.
Now that this Liu Hao appeared, Li Dong was a little surprised, but not too surprised.
This guy was probably used to being arrogant. Even if many second generations held shares, it was in secret. However, he openly held shares in Szentai. His guts were not ordinary.
Thinking of this, Li Dong said, "It should not be just him."
One Liu Nansong, to be honest, at least for now, Li Dong really didn't take him too seriously.
Unlike in the next few years, the other party would be in charge of an important department with a high position of power.
At this time, if Liu Nansong wanted to take over Faraway Group, it would be almost impossible for him to be careful of being stuffed to death.
Therefore, Li Dong concluded that there must be other people involved.
Although he said that Han Yu was a fool, the other party was not hopelessly stupid.
Just Liu Nansong alone was enough to tempt Han Yu?
That was underestimating Han Yu too much!
Besides, did Liu Nansong dare to provoke Jia Wenhao alone?
Although Old Merchant was younger than him, his future was much brighter than him. Was he not afraid of Old Merchant's revenge?
Zhou Haidong nodded and said, "It must not be just him, but we can only find Liu Hao. We can't find anything else."
"Then forget it. It will come out sooner or later. Szentai is mainly in the energy industry. Does it have any business interaction with us? "
Zhou Haidong shook his head. Li Dong frowned and thought for a moment. After a while, he said, "Then forget it. Right, is the other party listed?"
"It is."
"It is …"
Li Dong muttered. He had some ideas in his mind, but this idea was difficult to implement. The key was that he didn't have that much money.
Otherwise, if he attacked the other party in the stock market, he could retaliate for a while.
But then Li Dong's eyes lit up. Maybe the next stock market shock would be an opportunity.
Szentai had nothing to do with him, but he wanted to mess with him again and again. If he didn't take revenge, Li Dong would not be satisfied.
Also, it was not safe to be watched by a wolf.
Later, he had to plan carefully to see if he could kill the other party with one blow. Even if he couldn't kill them, he couldn't let them continue to have the energy to cause trouble for him.
Without saying much to Zhou Haidong, Li Dong was about to close his eyes and rest when Zhou Haidong suddenly whispered, "General Manager Li, there is also Miss Zhang."
"Miss Zhang?"
"Zhang Lanyu, Mr. Zhang."
Zhou Haidong explained and whispered, "Didn't you ask me to investigate that female reporter? I found out that Zhang Shiqi is Miss Zhang's cousin, so this news should have come from Miss Zhang's side. "
"She …"
Li Dong's eyes flickered. What is Zhang Lanyu doing?
She cooperated with Han Yu before, and then she cooperated with Liu Ke.
These two parties were not on good terms with Li Dong. Just when Li Dong thought that the two parties were destined to go their separate ways, Zhang Lanyu warned him. What does she mean?
Thinking of Zhang Lanyu, Li Dong remembered that he said he would return the money.
The stock market was withdrawn, and the money Li Dong received was slightly higher than expected, about 2.6 billion.
With a capital injection of two billion yuan from Distance Yuan and 500 million yuan from the charity fund, Li Dong still had about 100 million yuan in cash on hand.
As for Zhang Lanyu, Li Dong didn't want to contact her, so he didn't rush to return the money.
Now it seemed that he could meet Zhang Lanyu and settle the debt.
…
April 4th.
At the cafe.
Li Dong slowly sipped his coffee until he heard footsteps beside him. Li Dong smiled and said, "You're here."
Zhang Lanyu nodded and sat down opposite Li Dong. Then she said to the waiter, "Give me a latte."
After the waiter left, Li Dong smiled and said, "It's been a few years, and it's still the same taste. Haven't you thought of changing it?"
Zhang Lanyu smiled and said, "I'm used to it."
Li Dong didn't dwell on this. He asked, "How have you been recently?"
Zhang Lanyu smiled and said, "It's just the way it is. It's not bad. In life, one doesn't have to worry about food and drink. It should be considered good."
Li Dong didn't say anything and just drank his coffee.
Zhang Lanyu didn't talk to him either. She rested her chin on her hand, thinking about something.
When they were seated, Zhang Lanyu said while sipping, "Why are you treating me to coffee today?"
"We haven't seen each other for a while. Isn't it normal for old friends to come out for coffee?"
Zhang Lanyu laughed and said, "It might be normal for others, but it's not normal for you. We've known each other for a few years. When have you ever treated me to coffee for no reason? "
Li Dong said awkwardly, "I'm usually very busy."
Zhang Lanyu smiled and interrupted, "I understand. There's no need to explain. It'll make us seem distant."
"That's true. Speaking of which, we've known each other for almost two years, right?"
Zhang Lanyu nodded and said, "We met for the first time in 2005. At that time, my friend bumped into your car. That was the first time we met."
"Oh right, where's that friend of yours? I don't think I've seen her?"
"She went back to her hometown. Pingchuan's life isn't easy. Plus, her family is anxious for her to get married. They went back for a blind date and liked each other. Then she went back."
"Oh, she's not young anymore. It's about time for her to get married."
Zhang Lanyu squinted her eyes and smiled. "Why do I feel that your words don't sound right? I'm older than Jiaojiao by two years. Are you saying that I'm old?"
Li Dong was speechless. "That's not true. You women always like to think too much."
"Shen Qian too?" Zhang Lanyu laughed.
Li Dong waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about this. Didn't you say that you wanted to set up a company? Is it ready? "
"Yes, almost. We'll be able to open in a few days. "
"What do you do?"
"Everything." Zhang Lanyu ran her fingers through her hair and smiled. "It's just for fun. I'll go wherever I can make money."
"Do you need money?"
"It's alright. The investment isn't big."
"You haven't forgotten the money I owed you when I acquired Dongyu Real Estate, right?"
Zhang Lanyu glanced at him and frowned slightly.
After a while, Zhang Lanyu said, "I didn't spread the news that Far Away's capital chain was broken. If you believe it, then believe it. If you don't, then forget it."
"I know it's not you. I didn't say it was you."
Li Dong continued, "But a favor is a favor, and a debt has to be repaid. I said that I would help you invest the 20 million yuan. When the investment is over, I will return it to you. Now that the money I invested has been withdrawn, it's time to return the money. "
"Up to you. Anyway, 20 million yuan is not a big number for you."
"It's not 20 million yuan. It's 50 million yuan."
"50 million yuan!"
Zhang Lanyu looked at him in shock. "Are you telling the truth?"
Li Dong didn't care. "What do you mean? I don't need to fool you about these things. Where do you think the 2 billion yuan that I injected into Far Away came from? In the second half of last year, I invested less than 900 million yuan. Now I have withdrawn almost 3 billion yuan. So it's not surprising that your 20 million yuan has become 50 million yuan. "
Zhang Lanyu sucked in a breath of cold air!
In half a year, nearly 2 billion yuan of profit. This guy is indeed a gold digger!
She didn't ask what Li Dong invested. Instead, she smiled and said, "You are revealing your bottom line to me now. Aren't you afraid that I will expose your trump card?"
The outside world has always been speculating about the source of Li Dong's funds, but few people know where Li Dong got the money. Far Away, how much money was left after injecting 2 billion yuan.
But now Li Dong told her that he invested 900 million yuan and got almost 3 billion yuan.
In other words, after injecting Far Away, Li Dong actually didn't have much money on hand.
The mysterious source of funds is one of Li Dong's trump cards. It also shocked many people. Now that Li Dong told her so easily, Zhang Lanyu naturally felt different.
Li Dong said disapprovingly, "What's there to worry about? Since I dare to say it, I'm not afraid of others knowing. Besides, even if I tell everyone that I don't have money, will they believe me? Previously, I was so poor that I couldn't even feed myself. Suddenly, I took out a few billion yuan. Now, if I say that I don't have money, do you believe that I can take out another few billion yuan? People will only believe their own guesses. It's useless for you to say it. "
Zhang Lanyu couldn't help but laugh. This was the truth.
When Li Dong suddenly took out a few billion yuan to invest Far Away, it did scare many people.
Now, if she said that Li Dong didn't have money, others might not believe her.
Without dwelling on this, Zhang Lanyu sighed softly and said, "Since you're short of money now, you should keep this 50 million yuan for yourself. Help me invest again. Maybe in a few years, this money will become 100 million. At that time, I'll be a billionaire without doing anything. It's much better than me doing it myself. "
She didn't say that she didn't want it. She only said that she would continue to invest.
If she said that she didn't want it, Li Dong could still say a few words.
However, she said that she would continue to invest and set a goal for herself, to be a billionaire. It wouldn't be good for Li Dong to refuse.
If he rejected her now, it would seem like he was stingy and unwilling to invest with her.
Li Dong looked at her and nodded after a while. "Alright, leave the money with me first. It's not safe for you to go around doing it now."
Li Dong really needed money now. He didn't have much money on hand.
Leaving a way out for himself had always been Li Dong's doing.
Previously, he had secretly bought some Tencent shares but didn't sell them. Even when the market was closed, he didn't sell these shares.
As for the remaining money, Li Dong was prepared to continue investing in the stock market.
This time, he wouldn't invest in Tencent. Li Dong was prepared to buy Apple shares.
In the second half of the year, Apple would release the first generation iPhone. After that, Apple's share price would rise sharply.
In the next few years, or even ten years, Apple's share price would rise. Now that Li Dong had this condition, he could feel at ease hoarding some shares.
Coupled with the Baidu shares that he had mortgaged to Shen Qian's mother, when he returned Shen Qian's money in the future, Li Dong could be rich for the rest of his life just with these shares in hand.
As for the Faraway Lands, they could go all out without any worries.
If he succeeded, there was nothing more to say.
If he failed, he could exchange the shares for money and bring his parents and family overseas or anywhere else. He wouldn't have to worry about the rest of his life.
This was Li Dong's plan. Far away, no matter how big the steps were, Li Dong had confidence in his heart.
After talking about money, Li Dong and Zhang Lanyu drank coffee for a while. When the coffee was finished, Li Dong suddenly said, "What are you thinking about?"
Zhang Lanyu was stunned and didn't say anything.
Li Dong sighed. "I can't understand you anymore. Ever since Chen Rui's accident, you seem to be a different person. What are you trying to do by making such a mess? This time, you got your cousin to warn me. What's the use of a woman like you doing all this? "
Zhang Lanyu's lips curled up slightly, but she didn't reply.
After drinking the coffee in her cup, Zhang Lanyu stood up and said, "I'm improving myself. It doesn't matter if you understand or not. You will understand sooner or later. Let's go to another cafe next time. The coffee here is a bit fake. "
After saying this, Zhang Lanyu left without looking back.
Li Dong's mouth twitched for a while, and he muttered after a long time. "Crazy!"
Self-improvement?
You're a second-generation official. You don't want to be a prodigal son, and you want to improve yourself?
However, Li Dong had roughly understood something. This woman probably didn't have any ill intentions towards him.
As for what she wants to do and how she wants to improve herself, Li Dong couldn't be bothered.
You can never understand what women are thinking. It's too complicated.
