Xia Ruofei opened the email and took a look. He couldn't help but take a deep breath. If he wasn't still in the taxi, he might have exclaimed out loud.
This was an email from the bank he opened an account with overseas. The content was very simple. Ten minutes ago, a sum of money was transferred to his account. The amount was … 270 million! And the unit was … euros!
What's going on? A windfall from the sky? Xia Ruofei couldn't help but secretly say in his heart.
He carefully looked at the email. This huge amount of money was transferred by a trading company called Lyman.
This was a very unfamiliar company name. Xia Ruofei was sure that he had never heard of this company before.
But this was normal. It was very likely that this was a shell company set up in a tax haven like the Cayman Islands. The real controller behind it couldn't be found just by looking at the company's information.
Who in the world sent such a large amount of money to me? Xia Ruofei was also puzzled.
Such a large amount of money couldn't have been transferred by mistake. First of all, it involved two to three hundred million euros. The probability of making a low-level mistake during the transfer was almost zero. Moreover, the bank had to confirm it repeatedly before allowing the funds to be transferred to the account.
He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it.
"Sir, we're here!"
The taxi driver's voice made Xia Ruofei come back to his senses. He looked and saw that the car had stopped in front of the courtyard house in Liuhai Lane.
"Oh! Thank you! "Xia Ruofei said as he took out a hundred dollar bill from his wallet and handed it to the driver.
After getting out of the car with a small suitcase, Xia Ruofei walked to the courtyard house door and stood still. After a while, the iris recognition door lock opened automatically. Xia Ruofei pushed the door and walked in.
Outside the door, the taxi driver turned his head and couldn't help but look at the magnificent courtyard house door. He thought to himself, This guy wasn't bragging in the car just now! He really has a lot of rooms in his house! Such a large courtyard house in the central city must be worth a few hundred million …
Xia Ruofei had just entered the first courtyard when Wu Qiang came out to greet him.
The security system of the entire courtyard house had been upgraded. There were many cameras installed on the four walls, and the access control system was also integrated. When the front door opened just now, Wu Qiang was notified immediately. Although it was not opened abnormally, he still checked the surveillance camera immediately. Naturally, he found that Xia Ruofei had returned and hurried out to greet him.
"Boss, you're back!" Wu Qiang greeted him as he took Xia Ruofei's suitcase.
Xia Ruofei nodded with a smile and said, "How's your family these days?"
"Everything is normal!" Wu Qiang said.
The two of them passed through the Moon Gate and arrived at the second courtyard where Xia Ruofei lived.
Although he had not lived here for a few days, the courtyard was still spotless. Xia Ruofei pushed the door open and entered the house. He found that the house was also very clean and tidy.
Today, he did not inform them in advance that he was coming back. It was obvious that Wu Qiang, Wu Xiujuan, and Xia Xiaolan had worked very hard and meticulously.
"Ask Mrs. Wu to make something light for lunch!" Xia Ruofei said as he took off his coat and hung it on the coat rack. "Buy more ingredients tomorrow. Brother Zhao and the others will come here for a small gathering!"
"Okay!" Wu Qiang replied. "Boss, do you have any specific requirements for ingredients?"
"Buy the best! Don't be afraid to spend money, "Xia Ruofei said." Or go to Sam's Club to buy! Try to buy ingredients from our Taoyuan brand. If the company doesn't have any products, just buy the best ones! "
"Understood!" Wu Qiang replied. "Then you wash up and take a rest. I'll call you when lunch is ready!"
"Okay! Go ahead! "
After Wu Qiang left, Xia Ruofei went to take a bath and walked out of the bathroom refreshed.
The heating in the house was very good. Just now, Xia Ruofei was lying in the jacuzzi tub and was so comfortable that he almost fell asleep.
For the past few years, he had been busy and running around. This could be considered as half a day of leisure.
However, he was still thinking about the 270 million euros in his overseas account, so after soaking for a while, he got up, put on a bathrobe, and returned to the bedroom.
Just now, when he was taking a bath, Xia Ruofei thought about it and felt that the money was a bit strange. Therefore, he wanted to find out the background of Lyman Company.
After returning to the bedroom, Xia Ruofei was about to call Li Yifu and ask him to investigate the direct line of Lyman Company. However, when he picked up his phone, he found that there was a missed call from Li Yifu.
So, Xia Ruofei didn't even think about it and directly called back.
"Grand Uncle!" Li Yifu answered the phone in the shortest time possible, his attitude was still as respectful as ever.
"Yifu, you just called me?" Xia Ruofei said. "Just in time, I also have something to ask you!"
Li Yifu didn't have time to talk about his own matters and quickly said, "Please instruct me, Grand Uncle! I will do my best! "
"It's not that serious!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile. "Help me check the details of a company called Lyman Company. Just now, a sum of money inexplicably entered my account. It was from this company! I don't know what's going on … "
When Li Yifu heard this, his tone suddenly became a little strange, or perhaps a little awkward. He said, "That … Grand Uncle! Lyman Company is a shell company under the Hong Sect … "
"Hong Sect?" Xia Ruofei suddenly raised his voice. "Yifu, tell me clearly, what's going on? Why did the Hong Sect transfer money to me, and it's 270 million euros! "
Li Yifu quickly said, "Grand Uncle, it's like this … A few days ago, when we were dealing with the Gehrman family, didn't you find a treasure room in the manor? This money … "
"Don't tell me that this money was exchanged for those gold coins and jewelry?" Xia Ruofei said.
"There's almost 100 million euros in cash!" Li Yifu quickly added, "The remaining 170 million is almost the valuation of those jewelry."
"Isn't this nonsense?" Xia Ruofei frowned and said, "I've already said that the money will be left to the Italian Hong Sect as funds! Because of me that day, many of the Hong Sect's brothers were killed or injured! "
Li Yifu quickly explained, "Grand Uncle, please forgive me! I've already asked clearly. The reason why we were able to completely wipe out the Gehrman family that day was all thanks to you, Grand Uncle. The Hong Sect has already taken advantage of the situation and obtained such a large territory for no reason! Moreover, you were the one who found the treasure room, so Ah Hai and the others definitely wouldn't dare to take this money! "
Before Xia Ruofei could speak, Li Yifu quickly said, "Grand Uncle, the Hong Sect has a perfect compensation system. For the brothers who died that night, and those who were injured due to their injuries, we will compensate them enough internally! Don't worry about this! Also, Ah Hai and Zhengfeng won't come back empty-handed when they attacked the Gehrman family. Many of the things in the manor are very valuable. They have already gotten a great deal, so they can't take this money no matter what! "
"I said that I would give it to them. Why wouldn't they dare to take it?" Xia Ruofei said, "This Ah Hai is really too much. He has to ask for permission for everything. He doesn't have any courage at all!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Li Yifu quickly agreed. Then, he said, "Grand Uncle, please understand our difficulties. It's not easy for us to deal with that wealth. Also, it was the unanimous decision of the Hong Sect's higher-ups to convert all the jewels and gold coins into cash and transfer them to you. Please accept it! "
Xia Ruofei shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright, alright! Since you're already here, then I'll accept it! "
He also knew that for an overseas organization like the Hong Sect with such a long history, the wealth they had accumulated over the years was also quite shocking. It might even be comparable to those giant corporations that were worth tens of billions.
In fact, the World's Billionaires List was never a true ranking of wealth. In this world, there were many hidden rich people or low-profile organizations. The wealth they controlled was even more than the world's richest people on the surface.
For the Hong Sect, 200 to 300 million euros was nothing.
Since the Hong Sect was so sincere, Xia Ruofei naturally wouldn't reject it. Moreover, from the perspective of Li Yifu, Xia Ruofei still had a very deep relationship with the Hong Sect. In the future, when the time was right, he would just help the Hong Sect a little.
After Xia Ruofei relented, Li Yifu also obviously breathed a sigh of relief. He said repeatedly, "Thank you, Grand Uncle! Thank you, Grand Uncle! "
Those who didn't know better would think that Xia Ruofei had transferred 270 million euros to the Hong Sect. How could the person who gave the money be so grateful, but the person who received the money be so reluctant?
Xia Ruofei asked, "By the way, why were you looking for me just now?"
Li Yifu said a little embarrassedly, "Grand Uncle, I originally wanted to report this to you about the money, but it's fine now …"
Xia Ruofei said, "Okay, that's all for now. By the way, is there anything you don't understand about cultivation? "
"Thank you, Grand Uncle, for your concern!" Li Yifu was a little flattered. "I'm still digesting the content that Grand Uncle taught me last time. There's no problem for now!"
"Okay! If there's anything you don't understand, don't blindly practice. You can ask me anytime! "Xia Ruofei said.
"Yes! I understand! "Li Yifu said gratefully.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Ruofei threw the phone on the bedside table, then leaned against the headboard. He put his hands behind his head and stared at the ceiling in a daze.
He thought that there was a strange story behind this huge sum of money! He didn't expect that after the mystery was revealed, it would be so simple.
In fact, Xia Ruofei should have thought about the wealth that was taken out from the Gehrman family's treasury long ago. However, he really didn't care about it. Especially after he found half a box of Boundary Stones in the box, he focused almost all of his attention on the Boundary Stones.
He didn't expect that after going around in circles, the wealth would still be in his pocket in the end.
270 million euros was equivalent to two or three billion Huaxia dollars. It was more than the current assets of the Taoyuan Company.
In just one night, he had already gained so much by taking down a small Mafia family. If he were to take down all of the Italian Mafia families, how much money would he have?
Xia Ruofei didn't become greedy because of this. On the contrary, he became more alert.
After having absolute power, it could be said that it was easy to obtain wealth. It was because it was too easy that many people would inevitably get lost and go down the wrong path.
The Dao Arts was a cultivation technique that was full of righteousness. If Xia Ruofei's Dao Heart was really covered in dust because of this worldly wealth, then his cultivation would definitely be affected. If it was serious, he would even suffer a backlash, similar to the Qi Deviation in martial arts.
Xia Ruofei silently recited the cultivation method of the Great Dao Technique several times and gradually calmed down.
Then, he called Song Wei and told him that he had come to Beijing today.
Ever since the two of them had that special cultivation experience, Song Wei had left an indelible mark in Xia Ruofei's heart. He couldn't tell whether his feelings for Song Wei or for Ling Qingxue were deeper, but he was sure that ever since they parted in Beijing last time, his longing for Song Wei had deepened.
Xia Ruofei originally thought that he would be able to see Song Wei today, but he didn't expect that Song Wei had just gone to Guanzhong Province with his teacher two days ago. He heard that a Tang Dynasty tomb had been destroyed by grave robbers there and needed to be rescued and excavated.
With great regret, Xia Ruofei could only remind her to pay attention to her own safety and then hang up the phone.
Song Wei wasn't in Beijing, so Xia Ruofei suddenly felt bored. He wanted to use his identity to get a visa as soon as possible and then go to Italy to help Monica's brother, Rossi, cure his leg problem. After that, he was ready to go back to Sanshan.
After all, the company was building a pharmaceutical factory branch, and there were a lot of things like farm expansion. He had been a long-time hands-off manager and had thrown all the work to Feng Jing, Dong Yun, and the others. He felt a little apologetic.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei called Captain Liu An and told him that he needed to fly to Italy in the next few days and asked him to prepare in advance.
This kind of international flight not only needed to apply for the route in advance, but the crew also needed to go through some procedures. After all, after arriving in Italy, Xia Ruofei didn't return home immediately, and the crew couldn't stay on the plane all the time. They also had to enter the country.
Fortunately, most of the crew members were Chinese Americans, so it was very easy to go to Italy.
After making arrangements for going abroad, Xia Ruofei had some free time. He thought of the gray box that was still lying in the Ring-Tu space and the Boundary Stones in the box.
When this thought appeared, it immediately began to grow. Xia Ruofei couldn't help it at all and immediately took out the box from the space.
1, 2, 3 … There were a total of 18 Boundary Stones, not a single one was missing.
After Xia Ruofei took out the Boundary Stones, he casually removed the imprisonment on the white Boundary Raccoon. Then, he ignored the little guy's protest and directly withdrew his consciousness.
He got up and went over to lock all the doors and windows. Then, he pulled the curtains tightly. Then, he took out the Spiritual Map Scroll from his palm, casually picked up a Boundary Stone, and slowly approached the quaint scroll …
