Li He had just coaxed the child to sleep. When he came downstairs, he suddenly remembered that Ding Shiping's daughter was here. He went to the backyard and asked, "Old Ding? Is your daughter here yet? "
Ding Shiping gritted his teeth and continued to compete with the five bricks. He grinned and said, "I'm here. I'm home."
He bought a small building in the fishing village and became Li Aijun's neighbor.
"Then why aren't you going back to accompany her? Can you rest assured that she's just a little girl? Why are you wasting your time here? " Li He smiled and stuffed a cigarette into his hand. "Drive my car away and bring her around. Let's go to an amusement park or a zoo."
He did not say that he would invite the little girl to his house. Although he did not treat Ding Shiping as an underling and treated him as a brother, what would a sensible little girl think?
She had her own pride.
Hence, Li He did not pretend to do this favor. Since the little girl would not be at ease, he might as well give Ding Shiping a holiday.
Ding Shiping stopped splitting the bricks and smiled. "She'll be 13 this year. She knows how to do laundry and cook. There's a TV for her to watch, and she won't run around. Don't worry, she's very sensible."
Li He said to Zhang Bing, who was carving wood, "I'll give you a mission. Chase Old Ding away. If I see him again in three days, I'll hold you accountable."
"That's no problem at all!" Zhang Bing stood up and was about to push Ding Shiping out. He turned to Li He and asked, "How about giving me a few days off too?"
"Dream on." Li He smiled and said solemnly, "The safety of tomorrow's banquet depends on you. I'm still worried about Loudspeaker Quan."
"Then I can't leave." Ding Shiping turned and said, "When you're done with your work tomorrow, I'll ask for a few days off from you. How about that?"
When it came to Loud Speaker Quan, he was also worried. Although he and Zhang Bing didn't have anyone under their command, they could control Loud Speaker Quan's underlings. In terms of security arrangements, they were definitely more professional than Loud Speaker Quan.
Moreover, they didn't just rely on the people from Loudspeaker Group. The people from Loudspeaker Group were only responsible for the order outside the venue. The real order inside the venue still depended on the security company hired by Guo Dongyun.
"That's fine too." Li He thought that this was the most reliable option.
He returned to his study room to continue writing his welcoming speech. However, after writing for a long time, he still couldn't come up with any ideas. If he wrote too much, those who didn't know him would say that he was bragging. If he wrote too little, it would seem that he was inexperienced and petty. In the end, he decided to improvise. He was a teacher, so how could he have stage fright?
As the property of Gambling King Ho, Hong Kong Victoria Hotel was a famous five-star hotel in Hong Kong. On this day, many people noticed that something was wrong because the hotel had stopped booking and receiving guests two days ago.
Seeing the people going in and out, many people thought that the interior was being renovated. However, when someone informed them that the interior had been booked, those who knew about the industry were shocked and opened their mouths wide.
For many hotels, depending on the number of people, they could book a restaurant, the entire hotel, or even a part of the hotel. They were willing to do so.
However, this wouldn't work in the Victoria Hotel. It was a five-star hotel. Even if there were people who could afford to pay, they wouldn't book the entire hotel. At most, they would book one floor for some corporate annual meetings or product launches.
Of course, it wasn't completely impossible. However, there were very few cases where the entire Victoria Hotel was booked.
Some reporters had already smelled something and came over. However, before they could enter the hotel, they were stopped by a group of people in black suits and black sunglasses.
If they didn't tear open these people's clothes, no one would know that they had large tattoos on their bodies.
Loudspeaker Group knew how much Li He didn't like reporters to expose his privacy. To him, he understood Li He very well. The first thing he had to do tonight was to clear the place of reporters.
As long as there were reporters and paparazzi who didn't listen to him, he would deal with them with his fists.
He started his career as a gangster. He didn't need a reputation.
Starting from six o 'clock, all kinds of luxurious cars began to appear at the entrance of the hotel. It was like a wedding. Yu Dehua and the others stood in a row at the entrance to greet the guests. They shook hands and exchanged greetings.
The only difference was that there was no check-in desk, and there was no need to sign an invitation at the check-in desk. The guests who came were either rich or powerful. If they signed in, it would be a joke. It was all thanks to Yu Dehua and the others' judgment.
However, the guests who were able to come knew about Li He through Yu Dehua and the others. Therefore, Yu Dehua and the others knew each other. Sometimes, Yu Dehua would step forward, then Guo Dongyun, Huang Bingxin, Shen Daoru, Pan Youlin, and Chen Lihua. Whoever was familiar with the guests would go to greet them.
Most of the guests from the mainland and the Chinese enterprises in Hong Kong were received by Yu Dehua and Shen Daoru. Many of these people had seen Li He at the Shangri-La Hotel in Beijing. Some of them came through other connections, and some of them had not even seen Li He in person.
A Pingzhi Sedan stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Shen Daoru looked at the license plate and smiled at the others. "Li Chaoren is quite early."
"Mr. Shen." Li Chaoren saw Shen Daoru as soon as he got out of the car. Without waiting for him to speak, he shook hands with him and patted his shoulder. "Long time no see."
"Welcome, welcome. Please come in." Shen Daoru raised his hand to invite Li Chaoren in.
"Thank you, thank you." Li Chaoren was the first to shake hands with Huang Bingxin when he passed by Shen Daoru. Then, he shook hands with Guo Dongyun and the others.
Among the people here, he cared about Huang Bingxin the most. Just his projects in Pujiang Yangjing Port and Shenzhen Yantian Port had raised 4.7 billion HKD from the Tongshang Bank. He relied on Huang Bingxin a lot.
"Mr. Li, please come in." Huang Bingxin looked at Shen Daoru's expression and did not dare to talk to Li Chaoren too much.
Subsequently, Yu Dehua welcomed a few more customers who got out of the taxi. They were undoubtedly from the mainland. When these customers saw the luxurious display at the entrance, they felt ashamed that they had taken a taxi.
Only Liu Lenovo was slightly more presentable. At least he had a car. After all, he had a branch office in Hong Kong.
When Guo Dongyun heard the familiar sound of a V8 engine, she realized that it was a Rolls-Royce Phantom. There were no more than five of this car in Hong Kong.
She looked up and saw the HK1 license plate.
Gambling King He had come.
Yu Dehua and the others were not familiar with this gambling king. Only she went up to greet him.
The man who got out of the car was tall. From his age, he seemed to be in his seventies, but he still had a dignified appearance. She could tell that he was a standard handsome man when he was young.
"Welcome, Mr. He." Guo Dongyun was the first to extend her hand.
"Hello, Miss Guo." Gambling King He was just as polite.
He was handsome, and the Chinese in Macau had always followed the law of the Qing Dynasty. They were free to take wives and concubines. He had married several wives.
After he exchanged a few casual words with Guo Dongyun, Li Chaoren also shook hands with Huang Bingxin, Yu Dehua, and the others.
He was quite shocked. He did not expect that the mysterious person he had never met had so many people like Guo Dongyun working for him. He had always thought that the mysterious person only had Guo Dongyun, Yu Dehua, and Shen Daoru working for him.
Yu Dehua and the others waited at the entrance until seven o 'clock. Then, they went up to the top floor of the hotel together with the last group of guests.
The observation deck of the western restaurant on the top floor had an invincible view of the sea of Victoria Harbor. Here, accompanied by the cool breeze at night, it was especially comfortable.
All the guests gathered here tonight.
They gathered in groups of three to five, either chatting over a cup of wine, or playing coin-operated games or mahjong in the small pavilion on the observation deck, or resting on the reclining chairs at the side.
Among them, the most lively place was the gathering place of Gambling King He, Li Chaoren, Li Zhaoji, Ferry King, and others.
Li He brought He Fang with him and let her carry Li Yi. With the introduction of Yu Dehua and the others, they exchanged greetings and shook hands one by one.
No one appreciated his bearing and his talent. Those who had never met him were only surprised by his young age.
"Mr. Li He, Mr. He, Mr. Bao." Li He shook hands with them one by one. Then, He Fang followed behind and carried Li Yi, nodding with a smile.
Gambling King He and the others did not forget the formalities. They did not speak much to Li He. Instead, they sincerely praised Li Yi's eyebrows and eyes, saying that she was as beautiful as her mother. They also praised He Fang.
There were many people there. Li He could not favor one and discriminate against the other. He greeted everyone in the circle. When it was about time, he felt sorry for the girl and quickly asked He Fang to carry his daughter home. Even if he carried his daughter out for less than ten minutes, he would still cover her up tightly.
"Drink less wine." He Fang did not forget to remind him. "Your mouth hasn't recovered yet."
"It's okay. I know what I'm doing."
Wan Liangyou brought Master Wu and Sister Jiang to escort He Fang home.
