At night.
Golden Tripod Club.
Hsu Shengzhe threw down the cue and frowned, "What are you doing? Playing billiards for fun? It's like you're killing someone. Did I offend you?"
Li Dong did not reply. Instead, he punched the Black 8 into the hole.
Seeing that he had won, Li Dong took a deep breath and said, "Who killed someone? I'm serious. Alright, I've won this round. You'll treat us tonight."
Before Hsu Shengzhe could say anything, Ji Lanxin smiled and said, "Stop arguing, it's my treat tonight."
Li Dong waved his hand and said, "That won't do. We agreed that the loser would treat us. Old Xu, are you going to cheat on me for this little bit of money?"
"Screw you!"
Hsu Shengzhe scolded with a smile. The few of them went to the resting area and sat down.
Wiping his hands, Li Dong raised his glass and said, "Give me a glass. Look at me, I've just come back and I'm already asking you to eat. Am I letting you down? You, on the other hand, don't do anything. Are you letting me down? "
Hsu Shengzhe said angrily, "Don't be sarcastic. What did I do to you?"
Li Dong smiled and said, "You know what you're doing."
"I didn't. Li Dong, don't look for trouble."
"Whether I'm looking for trouble or not, we'll know."
Seeing that the two of them were getting more and more awkward, Ji Lanxin hurriedly said, "Don't fight. I just got a batch of red wine. They say it's from a famous French chateau. How about you two try it for me?"
Li Dong's stern face melted a little. He chuckled and said, "Let him do it. I don't know anything about red wine."
"You country bumpkin, what do you know?"
Li Dong sneered, "Yes, I'm a country bumpkin. But even a country bumpkin like me is better than a rich second generation like you."
"Alright, I can't be bothered to argue with you."
Hsu Shengzhe exhaled and drank a mouthful of wine. He turned to Ji Lanxin and said, "Lanxin, bring the wine over and try it. I haven't tasted any new wine in a while."
Ji Lanxin smiled and said, "Alright, I'll go get it."
This woman was also tactful. Logically speaking, she didn't need to personally come forward to get the wine.
However, since Hsu Shengzhe said it, Ji Lanxin naturally understood that she was in the way.
After she left, Hsu Shengzhe said, "The market has fallen below 5000 points."
"Yes."
"That's your reaction?" Hsu Shengzhe was slightly displeased.
Li Dong said casually, "Then what kind of reaction do you want me to have? Ecstatic, screaming, and telling everyone that I've made money?"
"Li Dong, you're really boring."
"You should've known."
Li Dong leaned on the sofa, crossed his legs and said, "Little Xu, I'm not going to play dumb with you. Tell me, how did you discuss with Zhu Yicai? Far away, which industry are you going to divide, or swallow them all together? How was the division decided? By the way, what's my fate? "
Hsu Shengzhe frowned and said in a muffled voice, "Don't talk nonsense. I know you're looking for me for this."
"Yo, I see that you're very clear about it. Just now you pretended not to understand?"
Hsu Shengzhe frowned and said, "Speak properly. What's wrong with me discussing business with Zhu Yicai? You're such a busybody. Do I need to inform you when discussing business? "
Li Dong smiled and said, "I didn't mean it that way. It doesn't matter if you don't tell me. When our cooperation is over, we'll go our separate ways. I've always been a straightforward person. You see, I didn't even pretend not to know to trick you. I'm a good friend, right? You'll have to pay for what you've done sooner or later. Good karma will reap good karma … "
"That's enough. Don't show off your nonsense that I don't know where you heard it from."
Hsu Shengzhe was a little speechless and said, "I already said it has nothing to do with you. I'm discussing cooperation with Zhu Yicai. Why are you making trouble? Yurun has been having a hard time recently. They want to deal with some industries in Jiangbei. In Jiangbei, there aren't many who have the ability to take over Yurun's industries. That's why Zhu Yicai came to me. "
"Oh, I see. I misunderstood."
Li Dong laughed as if he really believed it. He raised his glass and said, "Cheers, to our friendship."
"Bang!"
The sound of glasses clinking could be heard. Hsu Shengzhe did not continue the topic and said, "This time, the market continued to fall, and we earned quite a lot. I've calculated it. It's about three to four hundred million. When are we going to retreat?"
"Let's wait a little longer. What's the use of only three to four hundred million? We should be able to earn a few billion with tens of billions of funds. "
"But you don't play futures. How can you make such high profits?"
"Why not? We've only been here for half a month, haven't we? We earned three to four hundred million in half a month. What more do you want? That's faster than you robbing a bank. One must be content. Only when one is content can one be happy. "
Hsu Shengzhe shook his head and said, "That's not what I mean. But we know we can make money. Why don't we earn more?"
Li Dong sneered. "You know we can make money? How can you know? Let me ask you. Do you think the market will continue to fall? "
"Definitely!"
"Really? How far will it fall?"
"This …"
"We are humans, not gods. Do you think we can make money just because you know? I think you're out of your mind. Why? Do you want to retreat or play alone? "
Li Dong said nonchalantly, "If you want to play alone, it's up to you. But according to the agreement, you will not get a share of the profits this time. I agree to withdraw your five billion yuan. You will pay for the handling fees. "
Hsu Shengzhe said impatiently, "That's not what I mean. Why can't you understand what I'm saying?"
"Haha, pretend I didn't say anything."
Li Dong lowered his head and continued to drink. As he drank, Li Dong said lazily, "Oh, I forgot to ask you something. I heard your brother is back?"
Xu Shengzhe's pupils constricted as he asked in surprise, "You even know about this?"
"I heard it from someone. So he's back?"
"Family leave."
"He just joined the army not long ago, and he's already on family leave. That's the privilege of a rich second generation."
"That's not it. He was promoted to sergeant. Sergeants have holidays." Xu Shengzhe explained and said, "He's much better now that he's back. In short, you don't have to think too much. He's not a fool. Do you think he'll find trouble with you now?"
"I'm not afraid. You're the one who should be afraid. Your boss has turned over a new leaf. Be careful. Although you're the chairman, your father hasn't given you his shares yet. "
Li Dong said casually as he looked around. When he saw the waitress, Li Dong waved. "Beauty, come here."
The waitress hurried over and said respectfully, "General Manager Li, what can I do for you?"
"Add some ice for me. It's strange. It's winter, and I'm a little angry. Add more."
"Okay, I'll add ice for you right away."
The waitress didn't say much. In fact, adding ice to red wine was something for amateurs.
Moreover, it was the club's high-end red wine. It was a complete waste.
However, Li Dong was a big boss. Even if he added Coke to it, what could the waitress do?
Hsu Shengzhe frowned slightly and didn't say anything.
After the waitress added ice, Hsu Shengzhe said, "I can still make decisions in Longhua. Your father is old. There are some things you don't understand."
"It's okay if you don't understand. It's much more comfortable after adding ice."
After drinking the red wine with ice, Li Dong stood up and said, "It's getting late. I'll go back first."
"You're not waiting for Lan Xin to come back?"
"I don't know how to taste wine. I'll go first. Say sorry for me later."
After saying this, Li Dong walked out directly.
Hsu Shengzhe looked at his back and frowned again. This guy obviously didn't believe him today.
However, there were some things that Hsu Shengzhe couldn't explain clearly. If he said too much, it would make Li Dong wary.
Hsu Shengzhe sighed softly and drank the red wine in one gulp. His expression was a little ferocious.
This old man really didn't give up!
Wasn't Longhua developing well under his leadership?
He was the chairman, and his subordinates were obedient. Everyone gave him a thumbs up when they saw him.
But this old man thought that it was still 20 years ago?
Who was the boss?
He had been in the army for a year. If it wasn't for his family supporting him, he wouldn't have become a sergeant.
Now, he was acting obedient in front of this old man and wanted to snatch Longhua from his hands. Dream on!
Hsu Shengzhe's expression became colder when he thought of this.
Since you are heartless, don't blame me for being unjust!
As for Li Dong, this guy will understand. Anyway, he will know when the time comes. I don't have the mood to go against him.
If he could swallow Li Dong, Hsu Shengzhe wouldn't mind doing so.
But since he couldn't swallow him, why should he provoke Li Dong? There were some things that he couldn't explain clearly.
… …
After leaving the club, Li Dong didn't hurry to get into his car.
After walking along the street for a while, Li Dong was still thinking about what happened just now.
Hsu Shengzhe should be hiding something from him. But Li Dong guessed that it might have nothing to do with him.
But looking at this guy, he seems to be in urgent need of money. What does he want?
Also, he and Zhu Yicai didn't like each other. Now, he suddenly wants to cooperate with Zhu Yicai. This is a little strange.
After thinking for a while, Li Dong didn't want to think too much.
Xu Rulong's return to Jiangbei might be related to this.
As long as it's not against me, it's fine. But I can't relax. Who knows what this guy is thinking.
… …
On the 31st, Li Dong didn't go to the company.
On this day, he went to the fishing village and gave the gift that Yang Yun asked him to bring back to his parents.
As usual, his mother nagged about marriage for a while, and Li Dong ran away.
Now he didn't dare to go home. When he went home, his parents would talk about it.
After visiting his parents in the morning, in the afternoon, Li Dong went to Tang Kuan's place.
Everything was normal, and he earned a lot of money. Li Dong was quite satisfied.
But when he went out, Wang Jie's words made Li Dong feel empty.
Yuan Xue moved.
Or it should be said that it wasn't Yuan Xue. She didn't come back from abroad.
It was Yuan Xue's parents who moved. Wang Jie didn't know where they moved to, but he heard someone say it once.
As for who said it, Wang Jie said he forgot.
Li Dong didn't want to get to the bottom of it. If he wanted to investigate, there was nothing he couldn't find.
But why did Yuan Xue's parents move?
Maybe it was because other places were better. Maybe they felt that a small county was not suitable for them to develop. Or maybe the couple also wanted to go abroad?
Li Dong's heart flashed with a lot of thoughts. Finally, he sighed and stopped thinking about it.
Maybe, this is the best result.
Home is not in Dongping, Yuan Xue probably won't come back.
For no reason, a sentence flashed in Li Dong's mind. It's better to forget each other than help each other in difficult times.
