It would be a pity not to swim in such good weather and such waves. Li He took off his clothes without hesitation and ran a few steps in the shallow water. The water got deeper and deeper. When the water reached his waist, he flopped around. The buoyancy in the sea was high, so it was easy to swim.
Seeing that Li He did not show his head in the water, Da Huang shook his neck but did not take off his shoes. Regardless of anything, he used the traditional doggy paddling method to swim in Li He's direction.
The shoes floated on the surface of the sea. Shen Daoru, who was following behind, had no choice but to help fish them out.
Li He did not dare to swim far in the sea. It was not fun to encounter undercurrents.
When Da Huang saw him show his head, he went over happily. However, when he stopped in front of him, he could not find a foothold. After choking on a mouthful of water, he was probably a little scared and started to step on Li He.
"I've never seen such a coward."
Dogs were good at swimming. Being able to choke on water was the stupidest thing in the world.
He pushed Da Huang forward and to the side a little. Then, he began to swim to the shore. This guy's claws were long. It was not fun to scratch him.
Da Huang naturally followed behind Li He. When they reached the shallow water, it began to pant. When they reached the shore, it shook its body hard to shake off the water on its body.
Li He took the towel from Shen Daoru. After wiping himself, he wiped Da Huang's head and said to Shen Daoru, "You even went back to ask for a towel?"
Shen Daoru pointed to a gazebo in the distance and said, "There's a shop over there. There are many people who come here to surf and dive."
Li He twirled his fingers and said, "Give me one."
Shen Daoru handed him a cigarette and helped him light it. He said, "This is an export cigarette. I bought it at the airport when I picked you up. Look, it tastes the same. "
Li He took a deep puff and took the cigarette box to look at it. He smiled and said, "It's the same. We're both from the same cigarette factory. It's not that different. "
"I put five strips of it in the living room."
"Thank you." Li He looked up at the glaring sun and asked, "You're married too?"
Shen Daoru smiled and said, "Yes. She's pregnant too. "
Li He said apologetically, "Congratulations then. I'm really sorry. You came all the way here to support me, but I didn't get to celebrate with you. "
"It's not as convenient for you as it is for me."
The two of them chatted as they walked. Da Huang ran left and right behind them. Suddenly, there was a girl's scream.
Li He turned around. Da Huang was eight hundred meters away from the girl. She didn't have to do this just to show how weak she was. More importantly, she was such a big girl. How could she be so timid? He wanted to strangle her to death.
However, he still called Da Huang back because he didn't have much sense of civility to begin with. He even felt bad for scaring Da Huang.
"Remember, stay away from people in the future. If you really meet a lunatic, it can be contagious. "
With that said, he even spat on the ground.
Shen Daoru said, "Da Huang is quite understanding."
"Of course." Li He was quite satisfied with Da Huang. If it weren't for coaxing Five, he wouldn't have left Da Huang here. He continued, "When you have time, bring your wife out and we can have a meal together. Are you talking to yourself? "
Talking to himself? Shen Daoru took a long time to understand what he meant. He said, "It's free love."
He went to a bar to drink when he was bored. He had a bunch of car keys on him, from a Mercedes to a Ferrari. They were all luxurious cars, and the girls beside him just laughed it off. There were too many people who knew how to pretend, so he just ignored them.
Only one girl paid attention to him and asked him how many cars he had. He replied that he had eight, including the company's cars.
Then, the girl fell in love with him and moved to a mansion in the middle of the mountain. In the end, they happily married.
"If the girl isn't bad, then cherish her. It's not easy to share a pillow for a thousand years, and to share a boat for a hundred years." Li He suddenly put on the face of an elder.
"Thank you. I will. "Shen Daoru didn't resent it. He knew that Li He had good intentions. After listening to Li He's story, he was more moved and sighed. He also admired Li He's persistence even more. He asked, "I wonder why you're here this time?"
He still didn't know the purpose of Li He's trip.
Li He picked up an oyster shell. With his body turned sideways, he shoveled it towards the surface of the water. The oyster flew from the air to the surface of the water, scurrying in and out, causing three to four layers of ripples.
He was very dissatisfied.
He sighed and said, "I can't take it anymore. I haven't played in a long time. When I was young, I could jump seven or eight times like a frog on the surface of the water."
Shen Daoru also tried to pick up a shell and throw it into the water. However, he only heard a splash and only a few splashes.
"I don't know how to do that."
"If you're interested, learn it. If you're not, it's useless even if you learn it." Li He called Big Yellow again and continued to walk forward barefooted. He said, "Inform Old Yu to start gathering funds. I have a great need for it recently. Call Huang Bingxin over too. "
"You mean you want to continue working in finance?" Shen Daoru was already familiar with Li He's purpose every time he asked for money.
"Yes." Li He didn't hide it.
"But, we have developed very steadily now." Every time there was a financial crisis, Shen Daoru would tremble in fear. He was afraid that he would eventually be unable to bear the fear and die of a heart attack.
Now, whether it was Yuan Da or Golden Deer, they no longer lacked funds. As long as they developed steadily, their future was bright. He didn't think there was a need to continue taking risks.
Li He lit a cigarette and blew out a long smoke ring. He said, "Just do your job. Hurry up and raise funds. "
He thought about it and added, "Also, I haven't made a wrong decision so far."
"Yes, Mr. Li." Hearing Li He mention his several successes in the financial market, although Shen Daoru had some confidence in Li He, he still couldn't get rid of his fear. However, he knew that he couldn't change Li He's decision, so he could only comply. "I'll do it as soon as possible. Apart from the investments in Hong Kong, the United States, and the Mainland in the past two years, we still have 2.7 billion US dollars in cash on our books. "
Li He furrowed his brows and asked, "That's it?"
He wasn't satisfied with this amount of money. He was aiming for a big one. If he missed this opportunity, there wouldn't be another one.
"Of the 2.7 billion, we still need to leave 300 million US dollars for Old Yu to use on the Pujiang project. This is what you told us before." Shen Daoru saw that Li He's frown was getting deeper and deeper, so he gritted his teeth and added, "Our stocks and properties in Hong Kong and the United States can all be used as collateral for the loan."
Li He asked happily, "Roughly how much?"
Shen Daoru silently calculated for a while before replying, "About 1.1 billion US dollars."
"That's still a little too little." He was prepared to use low leverage this time. The older one was, the more timid they were. This amount of money was not enough. He was a little regretful that he had used too much money on the venture capital projects in the Mainland and the United States. He asked again, "How much can Kangnian Bank lend out?"
Shen Daoru smiled bitterly and said, "Kangnian Bank currently only has a total of eight branches in Hong Kong. Our deposits mainly come from the companies under Yuanda and some of our clients. The scale of the funds is too small, and one mistake will cause a run on the bank. "
"Alright. I got it. You can go and prepare. "
Li He strolled around the neighborhood before slowly walking home with Da Huang.
Four and Li Qiuhong were watching television in the living room. Seeing Li He walk in barefoot, he helped him get a pair of slippers and asked, "Sister was looking for you just now."
"Call her sister-in-law and call her sister. Don't call her the wrong way." There was a big sister at home, so there had to be a difference no matter what.
"I'm happy to." Four snorted at Li He's words.
"How are things at school?" Li He suddenly remembered to ask about her studies.
"I told you before that Sister He is a really nice person. You didn't lose out, did you?" Seeing that the two of them were walking together, Four was sincerely happy.
"Hey, I'm asking you a question. How are things at school? Why are you interrupting me?"
Li Qiuhong interrupted from the side, "Of course it's good that Ke Ke got an A."
Li He was quite satisfied when he heard that. He smiled and said, "Business is easy, but you can't be careless. Study hard."
To a nerd like him, the liberal arts were things that could be learned by rote and did not require much brainpower. Therefore, he was afraid that Four would not be able to adapt to it, so he helped her sign up for the simplest business course. No matter what it was, he would have room for her to develop in the future.
"Ahem!" Four coughed deliberately.
Li He glared at her and said, "Spit it out if you have something to say. Don't pretend."
Four hesitated for a moment, cleared her throat, and said, "Second Brother Li, I'm officially informing you that I, Li Four, did not study business!"
Even though she said it confidently, she still glanced at Li He guiltily after she said it.
Li He's eyelid twitched, and he asked expressionlessly, "What major?"
"Medical."
"Medical?"
"Yeah." Four suddenly lost her confidence.
"Alright, it's indeed fate!" Li He did not continue asking. He turned around and went upstairs to see He Fang.
Only Four was left behind, puzzled. What did it mean by fate?
Li He pushed open the door and saw that He Fang was lying on the bed, reading a book. She was not asleep.
He Fang got up and took a towel to rub his hair as she asked, "Where did you go? Why is your hair wet?"
"It's nothing. I swam in the sea." Li He picked up the book on the bed, flipped a few pages, and said, "The 15th Year of Wan Li. This book is not bad."
He then threw it back on the bed. His English was not bad, but he did not like to read English books, unless it was some English science magazines.
"This is the book that Four brought back. I borrowed it from her."
Li He held her in his arms and asked gently, "I didn't offend you. Why aren't you happy? We have such a big house. Don't you think it's good? "
"I'm happy. I'm really happy."
Li He smiled and said, "I've known you for a long time. Tell me, what are you unhappy about? Can I change it?"
He suddenly felt a little sad. The dashing and heroic Big Sister who used to squat on the flower bed and smoke "Da Yun" was gone. She had become a woman who started to consider other people's feelings.
At this thought, he hugged her even tighter.
