A leisurely life reborn in the fiery age

Chapter 417 The Tang Empire! (Ten thousand words updated, please vote for me!)

Cheung Kong Group Building, Central.

As night falls, the bright lights of Victoria Bay are dazzling.

Li Jiacheng looked at it, but felt that the color of the light was a bit cold.

There were four people standing behind him, including female secretary Hong Xiaolian. This woman with only a high school education had been working with Li Jiacheng since she was twenty years old. Ten years later, she became the executive director of Changshi Group and a close confidant.

The second person is Ma Shimin, an Englishman who was originally a talented employee of Jardine Matheson. He was poached by Li Jiacheng and became a director and general manager of Hutchison Whampoa. He was of great help to Hutchison Whampoa in developing its business in Europe and North America.

The third one is called Huo Jianning. A young man in his thirties with an unattractive appearance. He looks dull but has a strong working ability. He was discovered by Li Jiacheng at the age of 27. He became the executive director of Changshi Group at the age of 32 and became the general manager of Changshi last year. Everyone knows that Ma Shimin, the ghost guy, is just a transitional figure, while Huo Jianning is Hutchison's future.

The fourth one is Li Jiacheng’s eldest son Li Zeju.

Four people who were originally very busy gathered in Li Jiacheng's office today just because they had just received the news that the British Taitung Cable and Telegraph Company had merged the Hong Kong Telecommunications Company, which had just been merged this year by the Hong Kong Island Telephone Company and the Hong Kong Island Taitung Cable and Telegraph Company Limited. , reached a deal with Datang Group for a sky-high price of US$8 billion.

Eight billion dollars in cash!

The Hong Kong stock market is still licking its wounds from last year’s stock market crash of the century and is far from recovering.

Hong Kong Electric, Towngas, Dragon Tiger Pharmaceuticals, Hang Seng Bank, International Container Terminals, TVB plus the current acquisition of Hong Kong Island Telecom... By the way, there are also steel companies that monopolize 90% of the steel supply in Hong Kong Island. Datang has grown into a Empire, at least the empire of Hong Kong Island. "

Cheung Kong has also been chasing this golden rooster, but the price offered is far less high, only 1.2 billion Hong Kong dollars.

After Ma Shimin and Huo Jianning looked at each other, Huo Jianning pondered for a moment and said: "Li Sheng, the influence must be influential, but at present, it cannot be said to be too big an influence. After all, there is very little cross-business. In terms of real estate, Datang Although they have been acquiring buildings and land, the buildings they built are basically no longer for sale and are rented out to employees of Datang Group at low prices.

Li Zeju couldn't help but said: "Canning, together with Huang and Changshi, we are no worse than Datang."

But if they really scrape together the US$8 billion, will the Li family use it to buy Hong Kong Island Telecom?

Of course not!

Of course, Hong Kong Island Telecommunications is very good. It is a stable golden chicken that lays eggs.

He is not against developing international business. Hong Kong Island is too small after all.

At this time, no one dared to imagine that twelve years later, Li Jiacheng’s second son, Li Xiaocuigua, would buy 52% of the shares of Hong Kong Telecom for a sky-high price of US$18 billion. Sold 20% of Tencent shares for more than 100 million US dollars...

But for now, it doesn't have much impact on us.

However, it is Hong Kong dollars, not US dollars, and it takes time.

In the past few years, whenever something happened that threatened the safety of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, the Li family of the Tang Dynasty would become an overreaction state, like a powder keg, just like the beginning of this time. So crazy that even the gunmen from the Kowloon Walled City were dispatched...

Ma Shimin said helplessly: "They are very good at taking advantage of loopholes. They always take action when we are in a fierce battle with Jardine Matheson and Land Company, and their bids are ridiculously high every time..."

This is to avoid its sharp edge and develop outward.

Li Jiacheng turned around, looked at Ma Shimin and Huo Jianning and said, "Simon, Caning, how much influence will Datang have on us?"

Their approach is very scary. They adopt a welfare system similar to that of state-owned enterprises in the mainland. On Hong Kong Island, if there is no need to buy a house, then with Datang's salary, every employee can live an upper-middle-class life. As long as you work in Datang and retire smoothly, you can apply for their welfare housing and live there until your death. Doing so greatly unites the centripetal force of employees.

Huo Jianning nodded and said: "In the real estate industry, we hold two major listed companies and the largest land bank on Hong Kong Island. CK Hutchison is also the largest port investment group in Asia, one of the largest retail groups in Asia, and the largest health care products company in Asia. , beauty products retailer, one of the largest real estate and hotel companies in Asia... Of course our strength is no worse than Datang, but their influence on Hong Kong Island has surpassed ours. Even if we have a real estate profiteering industry, Datang is fully committed to The semiconductor industry that has invested in it has begun to exert its strength. It is unimaginable and beyond imagination that they can actually survive in the death of the semiconductor industry, which is amazing."

But by relocating the group in disguise, spinning off the real estate business separately, and then changing the focus of development, wouldn't it mean using the real estate business on Hong Kong Island to draw cash and then transfer it to other markets?

Huo Jianning is a Hong Kong native born on Hong Kong Island. He originally could find a very good job after studying in the United States, but he chose to return to Hong Kong Island for development.

Hong Xiaolian also rubbed her brows and said, "I can only say that their family is so good at acting that they deceived everyone. Even Shen Bi was deceived miserably."

Huo Jianning looked calm and said slowly: "Hong Kong Telecom has certainly greatly increased the strength of Datang, but what I value more is that they have updated a new management system within two years, the Six Sigma Quality Management System. I studied it This set of management methods has great merits. Over the past many years, Datang has been imitating and plagiarizing Changshi’s management. However, management methods that are suitable for Changshi may not be suitable for Datang. Therefore, Datang’s management has been loose over the years. There is no system. I have always believed that the seemingly powerful Tang Dynasty will bring down Pulu sooner or later.

Ma Shimin sat on the sofa and shook his head.

In addition, the damn Kadoorie family was simply crazy, and they offered so much help that was completely unreasonable. After Shenbi fell, it was difficult for us to find a way to counter the influence of that old fox, and we finally facilitated this deal. No one expected that young Li would have such a skill and such precise cutting points. "

Everyone was a little embarrassed...

With abundant cash and industry exclusivity, we will not be able to compete with Datang for at least ten years.

But in terms of return on investment, it is far less than real estate.

After hearing this, Ma Shimin was noncommittal and even nodded. For him, he actually felt that Hong Kong Island was too small.

Can the Li family raise US$8 billion?

As for the Hong Kong government, because Datang was very generous in today's turmoil and stopped in a timely manner, Wei Yixin, who was accused by many people in the UK of being too close to China, was called "Long Yan Dayue".

Therefore, my suggestion is that Cheung Kong and Hutchison Whampoa reorganize and merge and establish a new company in the Cayman Islands. Spin off the real estate business and list it privately on Hong Kong Island. In the future, in addition to the real estate business, the group will adjust its focus and focus on overseas markets. "

Although this person has no feelings for the mainland, he loves Hong Kong Island very much.

Li Zeju had studied abroad and was a Canadian national, so it was natural.

"Originally, everyone has been working together to prevent the Li family of Datang from completing this deal. They did not hesitate to mobilize their connections in the UK to build momentum there and put pressure on the parent company of the Dadong Telegraph Bureau to prevent them from trading with the Li family of Datang. However, the Li family of Datang The price offered by the Tang and Li family was really outrageous. After receiving the latest offer, the board of directors of Dadong Telegraph Bureau reportedly made the deal immediately without even a second's hesitation. Dadong Telegraph Bureau also suffered heavy losses in the global stock market crash last year. In urgent need of cash back.

Li Zeju said: "Diana, why do you say that?"

However, after updating this management system, Datang Group was like a loose building that had never laid a solid foundation. It suddenly turned into a skyscraper with a full steel structure and a deep and solid foundation. It became ferocious and terrifying.

Hong Xiaolian: "Yes, the Kadoorie family is really hard to describe. I heard that many prominent Jewish figures are scolding them... That Li Xing is indeed extraordinary. The news we received from them is that he is in a rage. He vowed to scrape the person out and feed the whole family to the sharks, but he didn't expect that he would feint his gun.

The Li family's Cheung Kong Group and Hutchison Whampoa are quite wealthy. They only raised 10.3 billion before the stock market crash. They went on a bargain hunting spree during the stock market crash. Li Jiacheng is confident that within five years, this 10.3 billion can turn into 300 million. billion, or even 50 billion.

Hong Xiaolian said with a bitter smile: "Starting from Hang Seng Bank, I always thought that the Li family of Tang Dynasty would be destroyed in the next second, but I didn't expect that I would escape death every time. Once or twice is luck, but after so many times, it can only mean that Their family is very good at acting and deceiving people. Moreover, Dr. Li’s vision and acumen in speculating on the stock market are as good as Li Shengyou’s. Although I don’t know the specific figures, at present, the gains of the Tang Li family from last year’s stock market crash are ,beyond imagination.

With such a calm and reserved character, Li Zeju couldn't help but ask at this moment: "Why would you sit back and watch Datang acquire so many important and fundamental companies? It's really unimaginable!"

The port business is also mainly digested internally. They have a large number of processing plants in the mainland and are developing manufacturing industries. Datang is not involved in the beauty retail industry...

In addition, they control many infrastructure institutions, such as electricity, natural gas, and telecommunications. This aspect is really choked and the impact is not small. "

Of course, it is possible to risk your life. Through HSBC, the Wang family and several other companies, the Li family has the ability to scrape together the eight billion US dollars.

Only Huo Jianning frowned when he heard this.

As long as this high-pressure state persists for one more day, each family will take action one after another to help the Li family of Tang Dynasty completely ignite the fire. By that time, both the Hong Kong government and the mainland, which hopes to peacefully take back Hong Kong Island, will be afraid of and hate a Tang Dynasty that tramples on the bottom line and is lawless and unconstrained. "

But he also understands that the current situation in Hong Kong Island has undergone great changes, and he can understand the mentality of Chang He and the Li family...

Li Jiacheng didn't speak and turned back to look at the night scene.

He is not afraid of the business currently owned by Datang. There is still a lot of business to be done on Hong Kong Island, and Hong Kong Island has the rules of Hong Kong Island. Even if Datang controls electricity and gas, it does not mean that they want to cut off the power to anyone. You can do that just by dying.

If they dare to do this, the Hong Kong government will immediately cancel their license.

Furthermore, when the franchise in Datang's hands expires, it will 100% face competition. Datang's Li family, which will not even look at it, including the mainland, specializes in so many areas of people's livelihood, and will definitely relax the license restrictions.

What really puts pressure on Li Jiacheng is the growth of the second generation of the Li family.

Li Yuan himself still looks so young, and his son is only twenty-eight years old this year, but the talent and character he shows are already starting to make people worry.

There are many self-made wealthy people in Hong Kong Island, such as Liu Luanxiong, who becomes arrogant and domineering after getting rich.

You can make money, you can also squander it.

This is human nature.

But neither Li Yuan nor Li Xing behaved like this.

Li Yuan sometimes behaves like a lunatic. He donated 200 million US dollars to mainland China, but I have never heard of Li Xing spending any money or marrying any Hong Kong celebrities...

He is self-disciplined and frugal, but when he sees the company he likes, he is so generous and bold that it is hard to comment.

Li Jiacheng knew that this was Li Xing's true level, because Li Yuan was definitely not behind the acquisition of Hang Seng Bank. At that time, Li Xing had already made the decision on his own and insisted on using one billion to acquire He Shanheng's Hang Seng Bank. At that time, , He Shanheng’s bid was only 50 million...

There are successors to the Li family of the Tang Dynasty. This is the most terrifying part.

Could it be that Hong Kong Island will really become their Tang Empire?

"Victor, what choice do you think we should make? If we stay in Hong Kong Island, can we compete with the Li family of the Tang Dynasty?"

Li Jiacheng asked in a low voice.

Others heard this and looked at Prince Changhe.

Li Zeju's face was calm and he said calmly: "Dad, you once taught me that doing business must be done for a long time, and it is not about who is arrogant for a while. Of course we can stay in Hong Kong Island, Datang cannot last forever Control the franchise. Hong Kong Telecom's franchise will only last seven years until 1995. Except for electricity and gas, we can compete in everything else. But I prefer cooperation."

Li Jiacheng turned to look at his eldest son and asked: "What do you say? If we continue to cooperate, Datang will only become stronger and stronger until Hong Kong Island is truly transformed into the Li family's Tang dynasty. But that Li family is not us. The Li family."

Li Zeju smiled and said: "Dad, I really hope that the biggest dream of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty is this. And when we grow up with the Li family, we want to be a world-class Li family. They can't compete with us outside, Datang It has even been included in the implicit ban list of beautiful countries. And our relationship in the West is far beyond theirs. Therefore, the one who laughs in the end is the winner. I believe that the one who laughs in the end must be our elders and the Li family !”

Li Jiacheng burst out laughing when he heard this.

Yes, Xiangjiang is too small to raise a giant dragon after all.

Only by looking at the world can we have real ambition!

Huo Jianning was smiling next to him, but he was suffering in his heart. He always felt that the two men... seemed to be comforting and cheering each other up today.

Although it seems to make sense, at best it sounds like it's to avoid the edge, but at worst it sounds like it's just because you're afraid and doesn't dare to face the competition head-on.

This is not a good sign...

……

Not far from the Cheung Shi Building, at the former Yihe Building, now the headquarters building of Datang Group, Li Xing was also receiving guests.

"Grandpa Roland, thank you very much for the Kadoorie family's full help. If you hadn't personally visited everywhere, done a lot of work, and mobilized all the connections and connections of the Kadoorie family, this transaction would have been difficult to pass by the Hong Kong government. Thank you. !”

Li Xing bent down and hugged the old Roland, and said movedly.

Old Roland smiled and patted his back, and said with a smile: "Tangyuan, you are a good boy. If it were your father, he would find a way to let me thank him. You know, he will succeed in many cases."

Li Xing smiled and said: "In his heart, he has always respected and thanked you very much."

Old Roland smiled and said, "I know."

After sitting down, Mi Gao made a look like he was holding something in his mouth. He put his thick legs on the coffee table, glanced at Li Xingfei, and said: "Victor, congratulate us. From today on, we will join forces." Rule Hong Kong Island!"

Li Xingxiao, after serving tea to the two of them personally, said: "The Li family is in the service industry. Just be a good waiter and cannot be an empire."

Mi Gao said with a look of disgust: "Tangyuan, you are far worse than your father! If he were here, he would definitely make me the eldest prince."

Li Xing laughed and said, "Then I can't tell you that, Uncle Michael."

Old Roland looked at Li Xing with eyes full of appreciation.

It seems that a person can fake humility, but in fact it cannot be faked.

This requires excellent upbringing.

And Li Xing obviously showed this kind of education.

It's a pity that Michael is really a loser. He gave birth to Feili at the age of forty. If he had given birth to a granddaughter earlier, then old Roland would have married no matter what.

"It's good to be low-key. It seems I don't have to worry anymore. Tangyuan, when will your father come back?"

Old Roland asked as he leaned on the sofa.

Li Xing smiled and said, "I don't know. Grandpa Luolan, it's not like you don't know that my father's favorite now is our Jiu'er. Except for Sister Xiao Qi and Jiu'er, our other brothers get scolded more in front of him." , we dare not ask more about him.”

Old Roland laughed a few times and said with relief: "Your family has accumulated wealth too fast. The wealth accumulated by three generations in Kadoorie over a hundred years has been surpassed by your family in just twenty years. Li is worried that you will Therefore, most people will be lost because of this. This is human nature, so he is particularly strict with you."

Li Xing joked: "Is it like you treat Uncle Michael?"

"Oh~oh~oh~"

Michael warned: "Young man, I am much stronger than you. Your boys are too weak in front of Li, why don't you dare to fight with him?"

Li Xingle said: "I will tell this to my father."

Michael raised his middle finger: "It doesn't matter! Anyway, I don't fight. I haven't fought since I was a child."

Old Luolan asked Li Xingdao: "Tangyuan, how is Datang's investment in Japan going now?"

Li Xing said truthfully: "The retracement has already begun. The Li family is not a Wall Street capital, and there is no beautiful country to support it, so we will not earn the last copper plate, and we will not participate in the final massacre."

What the United States wants to do is actually as clear as a lice on a bald man’s head.

Let’s see now which day the guillotine will fall, and which hot money players will be cut off by the sword because they are too greedy.

Old Roland clicked his tongue, gave a thumbs up and said: "Smart, very smart. Tangyuan, this battle between your father and son is the most beautiful layout I have seen in the past twenty years."

Mi Gao encouraged: "Go short again."

Li Xing shook his head and said with a smile: "Then Wall Street will completely break up. Our family has suffered a lot from following Wall Street, especially last year when we avoided the stock market crash and then bought the market at the bottom, which is equivalent to cutting off their skin." It’s too late. If our family dares to continue to be short-selling, they will 100% blow us up first. Besides, we have made several times the profit before and after. We have made enough and we don’t want to play anymore.”

Mi Gao laughed and scolded: "Tangyuan, you are a little Jew! How many times the profit, are you kidding? The Li family ended five years ago. When they came out before the August 7th stock market crash last year, they had already multiplied at least ten times. After the disaster, I ended up buying the bottom, and now I have rebounded. Two repetitions, another unimaginable gain. If not, how can you offer eight billion US dollars, and use the money to destroy the Dadong Telegraph Company? But you You're right, Wall Street is about to hate your family. Be careful, that old bat of the Rockefeller family will never let you go!"

Li Xing smiled and said: "It's not that exaggerated. I accepted it as soon as I saw it. The money seems to be a lot, but we have invested too much in the high-tech field. Uncle Michael, you should know very well that if you really want to do things, especially in Investment in high-end technology cannot be calculated according to common sense. The initial investment of a wafer fab is three billion US dollars. As the technology is updated and iterated, the investment will continue to increase. As for investment in R&D, I feel that I drive every day, fill a truckload of dollars, and then send them to the blast furnace for burning. It seems that no amount of money is enough. There are also those high-paid employees. Datang’s monthly labor expenses are now astronomical."

Old Roland sighed: "Yes, the Castle Peak coal-fired power plant costs 20 billion, and the Tuen Mun Lanzui Kok Power Plant costs 60 billion. The investment in a power plant is so high, let alone a semiconductor. Semiconductor factories consume electricity. For this reason, Hong Kong Electric built two new power plants on Lamma Island at the same time, which is really a big deal.

I persuaded your father many times before he was ready to do this. It’s so impossible, almost no one can afford such a financial drain. Behind the semiconductor companies in the West and Japan, there are large financial groups supporting them. But your father still insisted on doing it. Unexpectedly, he actually did it. Medicine, semiconductor... Tangyuan, your father is a great man. "

The total investment in these two power plants exceeds HK$100 billion.

In the 1980s and 1990s, China did not engage in semiconductors. Part of the reason was this. It wasn't that it didn't want to engage in semiconductors, it just couldn't afford it... Of course, for Datang now, it is no longer too much pressure.

After boasting over and over again, Li Xing finally realized something was wrong. He said seriously: "Grandpa Luolan, do you have something important to find my dad? I can call him for you."

Old Roland laughed dryly, but did not hide anything, saying: "Tangyuan, you know, Feili will be eighteen years old soon. According to our Jewish tradition, one is considered an adult at the age of thirteen..."

Li Xing was startled when he heard this and said hurriedly: "Grandpa Roland, if you want Xiaosi and Xiaowu to marry Natalie or Bitina, neither my father nor I will hesitate, or wait until Xiaosi When Qi grows up, she and Feili will fall in love freely, and we will also give our blessings. But now, if I call this number, my father will return to Hong Kong Island tomorrow morning, break my legs, and kick me Leave home. Grandpa Roland, you know that the boys in our family are worthless, and the daughters are too valuable. Xiaoqi is only sixteen years old and is still a child!"

Mi Gao cursed at the side and said: "Tangyuan, you, a scumbag who has had two girlfriends since he was three years old, have no right to laugh at my son!"

Li Xing pointed to the phone on his desk and said, "Make this call!"

Mi Gao suddenly realized that today's night is so beautiful...

Old Roland smiled and said: "Don't worry, don't I know your father well? I just hope to invite your whole family to Kadoorie Manor to attend Feili's coming-of-age ceremony. Of course, if Xiao Qi is willing to dance with him, I would be very grateful.”

Li Xing smiled and said: "There is no problem with the ceremonial dance. After all, Xiao Qi is sixteen years old this year. But I can only say one thing. Whether we agree or not depends on my sister's own wishes. Grandpa Luolan, you know, even if you don't mention it, My father and no one can make my sister do something she doesn’t like to do. If I dare, my brothers will knock me down because I don’t deserve to be this big brother.”

Old Roland smiled helplessly and said: "I know, I know. This is why I am very willing to have the Kadoorie family and the Li family of Tang Dynasty become brother families. For your family, family ties are above all else. Our family In fact, it’s the same, my brother and I still share the same username.”

Li Xing stopped mentioning the matter and got down to business, saying, "I heard that Liu Luanxiong is increasing his shareholding in Peninsula Hotel through China Entertainment. Grandpa Luo Lan, you should be more careful."

Old Roland smiled and said: "It's okay. With your white knight here, he won't be presumptuous."

Li Xing smiled and said: "It just so happens that I also have an account I want to settle with him. Grandpa Luolan, let's add it up..."

The Li family received a lot of help from the Kadoorie family, and he recognized this favor.

However, this favor can never be repaid with Xiaoqi's marriage.

Although when a rich man chases a daughter, the whole family comes to help, but when it comes to his own daughter, it's a different situation...

It wasn't that Li Xing looked down on the Kadoorie family, but because of his father's love for his two sisters, he really couldn't think of any children in the world who could catch his father's eye...

……

Wong Tai Sin Temple, Sam Shing Church.

Tonight, all the famous people from Hong Kong and Kowloon are gathered here. Some of the older generation uncles who have washed their hands but still have a say in the world are also here.

As soon as Hutchison Hall Sheng Haizai appeared, many people began to curse:

"Old Mother Diulei, we are all members of the Hong Clan, and we can't write two words of Hong in one sentence. It's okay to fight and kill for profit, but our Anqing Hall has never provoked Hutchison, why did you do it to me? My brother is still in the hospital getting stitches, how can I settle the bill?"

"It's amazing how many people there are? What's amazing about how much money we have? Which royal family rule did we break when making a movie? We didn't even say hello and just pushed him away when we came up?"

"This is too much! Tangtang Hutchison actually acts like a dog for others, biting whoever he is told to bite!"

Just when the crowd was agitated and even some uncles frowned and were about to say a few words, they saw Sheng Haizai suddenly standing aside, and his men automatically divided into two sides.

As soon as everyone saw it, they knew that a big shot was coming.

Xiang Huayan and Ge Zhixiong, the leader of the fourth group, looked at each other and looked towards the entrance of the courtyard. Sure enough, they saw a group of people coming in.

Seeing the person coming, the pupils of many big guys shrank in an instant.

So brave!

The former big star, now the movie queen of Hong Kong, Zhao Yazhi, the second young mistress of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty, walked in openly holding a little girl.

There was a man and a woman following him.

The man was the third son of the Li family who was said to be able to withstand Chao Yiyong's violent attack by dozens of people by himself. The girl next to him seemed unremarkable at first glance, but no matter how you thought about it, she was not a simple character.

Light green double-breasted cotton and linen clothes, an ordinary pair of light yellow embroidered lotus cloth shoes, shoulder-length hair combed into a simple ponytail, a pair of rather large black-rimmed glasses covering half of his face...

Xiang Huayan was very considerate, stood up to greet him, and said with a smile: "Young Madam, you are here with your great presence, and the flowers are shining brightly." He also called Fugui: "Third Young Master."

Fugui smiled a little coldly and nodded.

Zhao Yazhi smiled and said: "I heard that someone is looking for my daughter. I was worried that you might recognize the wrong person, so I brought her here for you to see and identify, so as not to harm innocent people."

Hey!

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.

This is a slap in the face.

So arrogant! !

Zhao Yazhi ignored the commotion and looked at Xiao Jiu who was accompanying him.

Jiu'er smiled and nodded, holding Annuo's hand, calming down the eldest niece who was always ready to challenge everyone, and led her to walk slowly.

Among them, in three places, he stayed for five seconds longer and stared for a while.

After completing the lap, Zhao Yazhi looked at Sheng Haizai and asked, "Do you remember?"

Sheng Haizai bowed respectfully, nodded, and said with a solemn expression: "Madam, please rest assured."

After Zhao Yazhi smiled, she took her daughter's hand and strode out.

After the Li family left, all the eyes of the old Jianghu were turned to the faces of those sitting in the three clubs where Xiao Jiu had stopped before. Their eyes were filled with confusion, compassion, and hatred...

Although they don't know how they offended others, they are obviously offended.

It's not good to offend anyone, but a big water pipe of this level...

Heji doesn’t know how many powerful people work on the Datang Pier. There are also those who work in factories and park cars in restaurants...

If these people do well, they can even apply for low-rent housing within Datang.

Who wouldn’t work hard for such an employer?

Even if you die, you don’t have to worry about your wife and daughter being left behind to make chickens.

I am so stupid that I can't see that the sky in Hong Kong Island has changed...

"Lin Bo, we didn't do it!"

Huo Miaowei, who was sitting in the hall of Yihai Society, was a little weak now. He looked at an old Jianghu above and shouted.

The other two families also called my uncle to intercede: "It's just inexplicable. It's us who did it at a glance?"

But Sheng Haizai didn't wait for those old men to speak, looked at the three families, sneered, and said: "The world is about the world, and the family is not involved. If one of them violates the bottom line, the whole family will be killed!!"

After saying that, he bowed to the big bosses and uncles in Hutchison above and then turned around and left with them.

……

No. 95, Nanluogu Lane, Sijiucheng.

Zhao Jinyue was sitting at the door of the north room, eating melon seeds, and watching her dog man flying up the pot at Jia's house, the fire was burning, and the fragrance of the vegetables was overflowing.

It's a pity that the little widow didn't even look at him today, her eyes were eager to look at that man.

It's a pity that the man only chatted with her mother-in-law...

Zhao Jinyue chuckled to herself, what a wonderful person, no wonder he has such a big family fortune.

"Mom, why are you laughing here?"

Sophora japonica was holding two bottles of Xifeng wine and was about to send them over and asked with a smile. After asking, she asked in a low voice: "Mom, do you also like Uncle Yuanzi?"

Zhao Jinyue is such a fierce person, how can someone tell secret words? She said confidently: "Nonsense! I let him touch her all over the place back then. Who does he like if she doesn't like her?"

Huaihua almost knocked down the wine in her hand. She was having a heated chat with Jia Zhang in the west wing. Li Yuan, who made the old lady laugh so hard that her dentures almost flew off her face, suddenly looked over and cursed with a smile: "Zhao Jinyue, this belongs to you! Did I ask you to ruin my reputation because I didn’t charge you for a massage? If I really believed it later, wouldn’t I regret it that I didn’t catch the traitor?”

Zhao Jinyue laughed evilly for a while, and then spat at Lao Yi's house: "Bah! This old coffin boy is the best at pretending to be pitiful. When he came back from Sichuan and Chongqing, he looked like he was about to die, but in the end he lived longer than his aunt. . In order to serve him, Auntie was exhausted. After Auntie died, he was able to leave. I regret that I will die!"

After saying that, she took two bottles of wine from Sophora japonica who breathed a sigh of relief. She carried it over herself and sat down next to Li Yuan. She said: "Yuanzi, you are really a strange person. That bitch Silly Zhu is over here." The vegetables are cooking, and there is a clanking sound. I am talking at the door of the north room, and you can hear it here?"

Li Yuan smiled and said, "I'm envious."

Zhao Jinyue smiled and said: "Of course! But what I envy the most is your ability to find a wife. Four, right? Yuanzi, why didn't you find me in the first place? In terms of appearance, who in Nanluogu Lane can compare with me?"

Not to mention, she is fair-skinned, beautiful, and has a round butt.

Li Yuan laughed and said, "That's all you have, otherwise Brother Zhuzhu would have divorced you eighteen times earlier because of your bad mouth!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Jia Zhang nodded her head non-stop and said: "Yuanzi, who says it's not the case! In Nanluogu Lane, I can be considered a eloquent person, but I just can't win her. But that's because I have such a good reputation that I can’t bear to curse with her, otherwise it’s not certain who will win and who will lose!”

Zhao Jinyue said with a look of disgust: "Please pull me down quickly, my wife! I've eaten shit a few times, and you still want a shit face! When people talk about you outside, they all praise you as the shit mother of our hospital, and the uncle of our house." The bastard of the courtyard! A match made in heaven, hahahaha!"

Looking at Zhao Jinyue who was laughing wildly, Jia Zhang looked pale, turned her face to the side and wiped away tears.

Li Yuan said to Yi Zhonghai, who was sitting on the doorstep across from him: "Master, can you tolerate this? There are all old people in the world, so we must respect them!"

Yi Zhonghai said nothing and sat there blankly.

Li Yuanle said: "Okay, you are a melancholy boy now."

Everyone in the room laughed and added more firewood to the pot. After finishing the attack, they came out and said to Li Yuan: "Uncle Yuanzi, when I went to the countryside to join the team in those years, you were what I thought about the most."

Li Yuan smiled and scolded: "What do you want me to do? Although I have helped your family so much and can barely be considered your half-godfather, I am actually not that deep."

Qin Huairu: "..."

Zhao Jinyue also said: "Don't recognize relatives randomly, why haven't our family recognized them yet?"

Qin Huairu said unhappily: "Who admitted it randomly? Banggeng is just grateful in his heart. When Dongxu was here, Yuanzi felt bad for Banggeng. He is a child of our Qinjiazhuang and no one can bully him."

Banggeng smiled and said: "Yes. Liu Guangtian and Yan Jiefang were always bullying me at that time. Uncle Yuanzi helped me and enlightened me, saying that when I grow up, none of them can compare with me. Uncle Yuanzi, You are right. Now each of them owes a lot to famine, and their wives are getting divorced."

Li Yuan smiled and said: "Okay, let's work hard from now on, and have a drink later."

Bangge has also been working in the company for many years. How could he not see that Li Yuan didn't want to talk to the juniors, so he consciously called on He Dan to replace Silly Zhu.

After Si Zhu came out, he praised: "Bang Ge is good, he is much better than his father."

Li Yuandao: "Dongxu was actually not that bad back then. Otherwise, could Sister Qin be with him? The key is that our Aunt Jia has a good tutor. The bad thing is that she has the wrong master..."

"Hahahaha!"

Zhao Jinyue laughed forward and back, feeling like she wanted to lean towards Li Yuan's shoulder, but she was stared at by Li Yuan, so she quickly swayed back and forth.

Silly Zhu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He glanced at Yi Zhonghai who was sitting at the door opposite, and said to Li Yuan: "Forget it, it's been so many years. It's not easy for me now either..."

Li Yuan smiled and said, "You still don't understand old people."

Silly Zhu nodded his head in joy and said: "Yes, yes, when it comes to talking about the elderly, no one in our courtyard can compare with you! Tell us about it."

Li Yuan said to Qin Huairu: "My back shoulder is a little sore. Please squeeze it quickly and I will explain it to you."

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes at him, then stood back and rubbed her shoulders.

She has been washing clothes all her life and kneads them with just the right strength.

Li Yuan said cheerfully: "What is this old man most afraid of? Is it someone saying a few words of kindness? Of course not, he is afraid of loneliness. It's so terrible to be alone and wait for death. Open your eyes and be alone, close your eyes. When you look up, you are still alone. Other people’s houses are filled with children and grandchildren, but he is the only one waiting to die..."

"Okay, okay, okay, you can talk about it later!"

Silly Zhu broke into a cold sweat. He was afraid that if Li Yuan continued talking, Yi Zhonghai would hang on the roof of the house that night.

Li Yuan smiled and said: "You, you really don't have to worry about me. Thinking about what kind of place Sichuan and Chongqing is, Xu Damao almost didn't make it. The uncle is still prosperous. If it weren't for his illness, I would I guess I'll marry another person there and live and work in peace and contentment. I haven't seen anything like the wind and waves, is it the uncle? Hey, he's back in the house, why is the uncle back in the house?"

Seeing that there was no one on the other side, Li Yuan asked in confusion.

Zhao Jinyue almost laughed out loud and said: "You still say that I have such a bad mouth... Hahaha, ouch..."

Li Yuan was about to fight back when he saw Yi Zhonghai coming out again. He suddenly said with joy: "Look, what did I say? I'm not afraid of anything! I went back and made a cup of tea. Maybe I added ginseng and royal jelly to it for maintenance." Here we are. Hey, this is our uncle, not an ordinary person!"

Yi Zhonghai was really shocked. Li Yuan could actually smell the smell of ginseng and royal jelly. Was he a dog spirit?

Just listen to Li Yuan continue to talk: "Brother Zhuzi, do you still remember? That year, our brothers were preparing to greet my brother and the others at the entrance of the alley. Just when we passed the public toilet, we heard a bang and thunder, and then... ...Oh, Bangge and Xu Damao were covered in shit. We quickly brought them back to change clothes, but we didn’t expect... Master, the color that day was almost the same as royal jelly, oh?"

Yi Zhonghai sat there expressionlessly. After a while, he slowly got up and went back to the house to change tea...

Mrs. Jia Zhang may have thought of something. She moved her buttocks on the horse and said to Li Yuan: "Yuanzi, it's almost time to eat, so don't talk about that..."

Li Yuandao: "Sure! It's all Zhao Jinyue's fault. I didn't think of this until I saw her!"

Zhao Jinyue was really laughing so hard today, she didn't talk back, she nodded and said: "Okay, I admit it. Come on, come on, I'll press your shoulder here, as an apology."

Huaihua, Xiaodang, Tang Yanling and other juniors looked on with joy.

This Uncle Yuanzi is really born with wealth and wealth, and he will enjoy it wherever he goes...
