On the 11th of February, Far away and Longhua reached an agreement.
5% of Longhua's shares were bought back. Of course, it was not in Hsu Shengzhe's name, but in Longhua Group's name.
After all, the bonds involved in the agreement were paid by Longhua Group.
Despite this, Li Dong knew that these shares would return to Hsu Shengzhe sooner or later.
After the agreement was signed, Li Dong and Hsu Shengzhe shook hands.
They were discussing business earlier, and after the agreement was signed, both of them returned to their usual state.
Li Dong asked Hsu Shengzhe to sit down and said helplessly, "I had issued 3 billion worth of bonds to borrow cash to develop my company. Now, 1 billion came back to me. I feel that I have suffered a loss. "
Hsu Shengzhe said in disdain, "Enough. Tell me, how much did you spend to get this 1 billion worth of bonds? This time, I will give you 400 million in cash. In fact, it is equivalent to 300 million, and you will be able to get these bonds. No, you still have to deduct the money I invested in the stock market. It is less than 200 million. As for the other bonds, you did not spend any money on them. Don't think I don't know. "
1 billion worth of bonds with interest is not a small amount.
Li Dong had spent a little money to get these bonds back. If it was someone else, they would be overjoyed. What's the point of being depressed? Shameless!
It's not like Li Dong did not want the bonds, and Far away will have to pay back the money sooner or later.
Getting the bonds back now will reduce the pressure in the future.
Hsu Shengzhe could not be bothered to talk to him and asked, "When are you going to Beijing?"
"The day after tomorrow. I will go there on the 13th and rest for a day. I will attend the auction on the 15th."
"Alright. We will go together."
Hsu Shengzhe asked, "Have you thought of other things?"
Li Dong asked. "What do you mean?"
"You are only thinking of developing a shopping mall and commercial building? These are not enough for Dongyu Real Estate to gain a foothold in Beijing, and it will not be able to spread its name. What I mean is, this time, why don't the three of us work together to buy some land and develop residential real estate? With the strength of our three families, building a few high-end residential areas in the city is not a problem. This way, I'll be able to make a name for myself in the capital, and I'll be able to gain a foothold. "
Li Dong shook his head and said, "I don't have such thoughts for the time being. We can work together, but I'm talking about working together because we have the same strategy and we have to work together to fight against the outside world. We shouldn't fight against each other. As for project cooperation, it's too troublesome, and I don't have the capital for it now. "
"Why not?" Hsu Shengzhe said energetically, "Li Dong, don't forget about Secretary Du! All three of us have the strength and confidence. As for Secretary Du, you can come forward and talk to him. We actually don't need to spend much money. With our three groups as guarantors, don't tell me Secretary Du still doesn't believe that we have the ability? "
Li Dong grinned. After a while, he chuckled and said, "If you can do it, then go ahead. I'm not going anyway. Don't get any ideas about me."
"You … Hypocritical!"
Hsu Shengzhe sighed and said with some regret, "You just don't understand the use of resources. Such a good resource, and you actually let it go. I feel pity for you.
We are not doing anything against the rules. It's just a matter of scale.
The city government is a little more lenient, and we don't need to spend much money.
Besides, we are not the first to do this. Some people are more lenient than us.
I heard that there are a few real estate groups that almost don't need to spend any money to get the land. The government gives it to them for free!
Increasing influence, boosting the economy, and attracting investments are all bullshit!
How many of these domestic real estate companies have much influence?
Is there a big difference between who builds the commercial plaza and commercial buildings?
As long as your location is good and the publicity is good, the effect is the same.
You can also promote economic development. You can fool the layman, but we all know what you are doing.
Li Dong, sometimes don't be too serious. If everyone does what you do, what kind of real estate is there? We would have lost a lot of money. Why bother? "
Li Dong still shook his head and said, "I don't need to do this. Faraway Group is clean. I can withstand the investigation, and I'm not afraid of others being jealous. If the development is slow, then so be it. If you always walk by the river, your shoes will get wet. Besides, this kind of thing can't be done forever. Sooner or later, someone will take care of it. "
"How early is sooner?" Hsu Shengzhe sneered. "Also, you said that you can withstand the investigation. You are still so naive!"
"Some people say that you are violating the rules, so you are violating the rules. What do you mean by not being able to withstand it? Do you think you can just do business honestly?"
"What a joke!"
"Recently, I heard that the Internet and newspapers are talking about the original sin of the Huang brothers. What is the original sin?
Who dares to pat their chest and say that they are not guilty of the original sin?!
Now, they are bringing up the past. Aren't they afraid of being laughed at?
So, in the end, it is still a matter of strength. If Gome's assets were in the thousands of trillions and had more than a million employees, do you think anyone would still talk about the original sin?
Make more money while you can and expand the company. In the future, even if someone wants to deal with you, they will not dare to kill you directly.
The weak are prey to the strong. This is an unchanging principle.
As for the rest, it is just a side issue. "
Li Dong glanced at him and chuckled. "Now, I am starting to believe that Longhua can continue to grow. But in the future, be careful not to fall into the trap."
Hsu Shengzhe was born to be a businessman. This was what Li Dong had always thought.
If he does not stumble and continues to do business smoothly, he will definitely have a place in the real estate industry in the future.
What Li Dong was afraid of was that this fellow would not be able to take it. When the company becomes bigger, there will be more people watching him. At that time, there will be more than one or two people who want to take him down.
Hsu Shengzhe said indifferently. "If that day really comes, I don't care. You are just worrying too much. Far away will not be like this. "
"I am very satisfied."
"Hypocrite. If you are satisfied, why are you still expanding?!"
"These two points are not in conflict. Expansion is expansion, but I do not need to expand in the way you said."
"I think you are not confident to convince Secretary Du."
Li Dong laughed. "You can say whatever you want. If I care about other people's opinions, I would have quit a long time ago. You don't have a say in what I do, and neither does anyone else. "
Hsu Shengzhe knew he had no chance and did not continue to pester Dong Xuebing.
He changed the topic. "Shen Qian is not around?"
Li Dong smiled. "She is still in Beijing. Wait for me to go over, and we will come back together."
Hsu Shengzhe did not ask any more questions. He stood up and said. "I will go back and prepare first. We will meet the day after tomorrow."
"Ok."
… …
February 12th.
In the morning, Li Dong dealt with some chores. In the afternoon, Li Dong went to meet someone.
Every time he saw Zhang Lanyu, Li Dong felt uneasy.
He could not understand what this woman was doing. If it was not because he felt that she did not have any ill intentions, Li Dong would not even bother to talk to her.
When they met, Li Dong did not say anything.
He did not say anything, and Zhang Lanyu did not say anything as well. She only drank her coffee.
She took a sip of coffee, looked at Li Dong, took another sip, and looked at Li Dong again. It was as if there were flowers on Li Dong's face.
Li Dong did not say anything, but he was about to vomit blood in his heart. Look, I am so handsome. Continue to look at me. Let's see how long you can look!
In the end, Li Dong was defeated. This woman can really sit for the whole afternoon without saying a word!
In the end, it was Li Dong who could not hold back. He asked with some doubt, "Why are you hooking up with Chen Rui again?"
Zhang Lanyu's movements were sluggish. Her face turned from white to green, then from green to purple. Finally, she held her breath and said, "Don't you think there is something wrong with your choice of words?"
"Ahem, what I mean is, why are you two hooking up again?"
"Li Dong!"
Zhang Lanyu was a little helpless. She put down the coffee and said, "Can you not be so boring? What do you mean hooking up? Is it easy for me to do business? Chen Rui can help me with some things, so we are only doing business. Do you understand? "
"I understand."
Li Dong looked like he understood. He was too lazy to dwell on this matter. He asked again, "Then why are you looking for me today?"
"Can't you have a cup of coffee with me?"
"That's not what I mean. Anyway, how do I say it? Alright, I won't say it."
Li Dong was a little disappointed. Damn it, what did I want to say?
After a while, Li Dong said again, "That, have you finished self-sublimation?"
"What self-sublimation?" Zhang Lanyu looked confused.
Li Dong was even more confused. Didn't you say that?
Last time he asked Zhang Lanyu why she was crazy, this woman said that she was self-sublimating. Now she was not going to admit it?
Li Dong smiled bitterly. He really did not have the energy to continue entangling with her. He sighed and said, "Alright, pretend I didn't ask. Let's have a cup of coffee. After that, let's call it a day."
"Pfft!"
Zhang Lanyu could not help but laugh. In the end, her laughter became louder and louder.
Li Dong looked at her with a face full of black lines. This woman was really crazy, the kind that was getting crazier and crazier.
After laughing for a while, Zhang Lanyu finally stopped and said, "Alright, let's stop joking. I have something serious to talk to you about today."
Li Dong had an 'as expected' look on his face. You wouldn't look for me if there wasn't something serious.
Although Zhang Lanyu said something serious, she did not speak for a long time. She just stared at Li Dong.
Li Dong felt a little creeped out by her stare. He frowned and said, "Say something. Why do you keep looking at me?"
"You seem to be more mature than before," Zhang Lanyu said faintly.
Li Dong felt uncomfortable all over. Damn it, I shouldn't have come today.
He made up his mind that he would definitely not meet this woman next time unless there was something important. Li Dong then said sullenly, "Nonsense. I'm getting older, of course I'm more mature."
"That's true. But now I keep feeling that something is wrong. It makes me feel uncomfortable."
Li Dong frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
"In the past, you showed off your abilities. From afar, you looked like a ferocious tiger. Now, you don't have that edge anymore. I know you are restraining yourself, but this is not the Li Dong I know. It makes me feel a little uncomfortable. "
As Zhang Lanyu spoke, she seemed to feel a little regretful and a little disappointed.
She said in a low voice, "Actually, when you are not restraining yourself, you are more charming. But now, I feel that you are not as charming as before."
Li Dong's mouth twitched. Did I recognize the wrong person?
This is not Zhang Lanyu at all. I must have recognized the wrong person!
Let's talk business, okay? You talk about this and that, and you even talk about charm. Are you crazy?
Seeing that Li Dong did not say anything, Zhang Lanyu did not say anything. She paused and then said, "Let's not talk about this. Actually, it is not a big deal. I just want to remind you to be careful when you go to Beijing. Chen Rui has many friends there."
"That's it?"
"Yes."
Li Dong's mouth twitched even more. He smiled stiffly and said, "Thank you for reminding me. I will be careful."
After that, the two did not speak anymore. After drinking the coffee, Li Dong directly left.
Today, Zhang Lanyu's problem was very serious. Li Dong's scalp was numb when she looked at him. Who knew that she would call him out for coffee because of this.
He was as busy as a top now. He did not have the time to waste the afternoon talking nonsense with her.
Until he left, Zhang Lanyu kept looking at his back.
After a long time, Zhang Lanyu sighed and said, "I am possessed."
Not only did Li Dong think she was crazy, but she also thought she was crazy.
When did she go crazy?
She did not remember. In short, she seemed to be crazy for a period of time.
What was she doing these days?
Zhang Lanyu shook her head lightly, then laughed involuntarily. Women were all crazy.
Just like this time, she suddenly had a sudden impulse to see Li Dong. It was just that sudden. She just wanted to see him and accompany him for a while.
Then she called Li Dong. There was no reason.
After sitting alone for a while, Zhang Lanyu got up and left.
