Chapter 311: Overwhelming Wealth, Old Xie Accepted
“Know a little.
“They were previously in the security department, working as guards in the basement.
"After Section Chief Liu died, the security department was reshuffled, and it seems the two of them were fired."
Yucheng replied.
“Go, get their files… Forget it, don’t go to the archives room, find someone privately to find out their whereabouts, whether they have returned to their hometown or stayed in Jinhai.
"Hurry up, within three days at most, I want results."
Li Ya ordered.
"Yes." Yucheng took the order and left.
Li Ya continued to flip through the information.
It has to be said that as a veteran in the establishment of the website, Lu Qiaoshan saw the internal strife between Ma Kui and Yu Zecheng very clearly as a bystander and director of the intelligence department.
Lu Qiaoshan has a diary that records the relationship between Yu Zecheng, Hong Zhiyou and Wu Jingzhong.
Including their "history of success".
There is evidence.
There are also speculations without evidence.
I have to say that as the eldest brother of the Nanchang Investigation Department, Lu Qiaoshan is very professional in his work.
Wherever the evidence is placed, its source and the people who handled it are clearly marked.
Finished reading the diary.
Li Ya roughly understood Jinhai Station.
In order to get rich, Wu Jingzhong colluded with Hong and Yu and framed Ma Kui and his mentor Liu Xiong.
Not only that.
Since Lu Qiaoshan participated in the entire "Emei Peak" incident of Ma Kui, he has absolute say, which means that the authenticity of these information is guaranteed.
Lu clearly stated in his diary: Yu Zecheng is the real Mount Emei.
Even Wu Jingzhong could be Mount Emei.
The code name Emei Peak does not refer to a person, but a group.
Some of the top-secret information was handled by very few people. Excluding Ma Kui, the only two people who could have leaked the information were Wu Jingzhong and Yu Zecheng.
For example, the case of the leak of the list of securities firms.
The secret mission of Dai Li’s trip to Tianjin.
Under these cases, Lu Qiaoshan also marked his own speculations and some suspicious lists.
Such as Mu Liancheng, Deng Ming, Zuo Lan and so on.
As for Jinhai Station, Lu Qiaoshan's overall evaluation is: a den of bandits, all of them are red-ticket items, except... Hong Zhiyou.
This is similar to what Li Ya sees.
However, Lu Qiaoshan's attitude towards Hong Zhiyou is obviously contradictory.
Sometimes he expressed his gratitude to Hong Zhi in his diary.
Sometimes they curse him to die a bad death, to be hit by a car or shot when he goes out.
"Little man!"
Li Ya sneered at Lu Qiaoshan and continued flipping through the pages.
Later, there is Lu Qiaoshan’s evaluation of himself: clumsy and stupid, but loyal to the party and the country, and there is no way he can be a red ticket.
"Thank you, Lao Lu."
A sneer appeared on Li Ya's lips and he closed the diary.
Combined with some sweet words Wu Jingzhong promised to Lu Qiaoshan about being the deputy station chief, Li Ya understood everything.
From the beginning to the end, Wu Jingzhong never considered himself a student, but a pawn to restrain Lu Qiaoshan.
That explains it.
Why did I repeatedly fail at critical moments when competing for the position of deputy webmaster?
Why did he follow Ma Kui's old path even though he was so cautious and experienced? It was not because he was stupid or clumsy, but because Wu Jingzhong was controlling everything behind the scenes.
When Li Ya thought about opening his heart to Wu Jingzhong, a lot of information and analysis would be passed to the ears of Yu Zecheng and Hong Zhiyou, and he couldn't help but feel humiliated, betrayed, angry and painful.
“No wonder Lu Qiaoshan and I lost and almost died together.
"Old Wu, what a good trick!"
Li Ya gritted his teeth and his eyes gradually became gloomy.
He knew that Lu Qiaoshan wanted to let him go and leave behind top-secret intelligence.
Let me continue fighting on his behalf.
Either he was killed by Wu and Yu, or he killed Wu and Yu.
Lu Qiaoshan makes money no matter what.
“Old Lu, this deal is fair.
"Leave the rest to me."
Li Ya touched his nose bridge and paced around the room muttering to himself.
Wu Jingzhong has too much experience and a strong background, with Jianfeng, Zheng Jieming and a group of important officials from the Ministry of National Defense as his backers.
Especially the US military behind Hong Zhiyou, which is the trump card of the father-in-law and son-in-law.
Even Lu Qiaoshan, who wore the imperial sword, died with regret.
If you confront it head-on, you will only end up dead.
The only way to break the impasse is to... start with Yu Zecheng.
This is also Lu Qiaoshan’s point of view.
As long as he can get the seat, Yu Zecheng will be a lucky ticket.
With just this one move, it would be difficult for Wu Jingzhong to keep his position under the current high-pressure situation where it is better to kill three thousand than to miss a single one.
No power.
No use value.
In the eyes of Jianfeng and Zheng Jieming, the rotten Old Wu was probably worse than a dog. It would be easy to take his life to avenge their mentor.
However, with Wu Jingzhong blocking the way, it would be very troublesome to investigate Yu Zecheng.
Without Jianfeng, he can no longer stand firm.
He must find a backer.
Changing factions is very common in the party-state.
It was very common for those who followed Kang Ze, Zheng Jieming and Yu Lexing to switch to Dai Li's camp.
Since the Three Youth League was banned, Jianfeng also cut off his right to exclusive contact.
It is only natural for him to switch sides now.
Who should I vote for?
Zheng Jieming?
No, this person is too deeply involved with Wu Jingzhong.
Mao Renfeng?
Seems to work.
The enemy of the enemy is the friend.
Mao Renfeng and Wu Jingzhong had been fighting for many years, and Mao Wanli was forced to leave his hometown. Although there was no deep hatred between the two sides, they were definitely not on good terms with each other.
Moreover, Mao Renfeng had recently taken notice of his wife's beautiful legs, and went to Beijing in person to arrest Ma Hansan and Qiao Jiacai, and severely criticized Li Zongren on behalf of the Chairman, earning him the Chairman's high regard.
On the contrary, Hou Teng of the Second Department is just a decoration and is no longer able to interfere in the personnel appointments and dismissals of the Bureau of Secrets.
Mao Renfeng's prestige is now at its peak, and even Jianfeng has to stay away from him.
At the same time, with his wife as his support, he also has the capital to talk to the Americans.
Since he was a staff member of the Bureau of Secrets and was directly under the jurisdiction of Mao Renfeng, it seemed natural for him to surrender to him.
"Well, it's him." Li Ya slapped his thigh and calmed down.
He quickly picked up the phone and dialed the number:
"Hello, Brother Wanli, it's me, Li Ya.
“Are you free to meet up?
"I have something important to discuss with you.
"Okay, I'll fly to Hangzhou now.
"Goodbye."
After hanging up the phone, he asked an acquaintance to find a flight to Hangzhou.
Li Ya knew very well that Mao Renfeng would not see him.
Fortunately.
Mao Wanli returned from studying in North America last year. He has now been promoted to major general and succeeded Mao Sen as the stationmaster of Hangzhou Station.
At least we had cooperation once in Jinhai.
Although it was not very pleasant, we were able to talk after all.
Whether he can join Mao Renfeng and overthrow Wu Jingzhong depends entirely on this round.
……
night.
Deep in the alley, Liu Mazi was eating hot pot in a copper pot.
"Boss, give me three more plates of finely chopped mutton." Xie Ruolin called to the boss with pockmarks on his face.
"I've eaten at so many mutton restaurants, but this one is the most authentic."
While talking to Yu and Hong, he picked up another piece of food with chopsticks and started to rinse it.
"Old Xie is making money." Yu Zecheng rolled up his shirt sleeves and said with a smile.
“Well, that’s a must.
"It's inevitable that you won't get rich following Secretary Hong.
“This time I went south with Sun Chuanzhi’s wife to select a site.
"After much searching, Mrs. Sun finally chose the island owned by Hong Zhiyou.
"She wants to buy a piece, not too big, but one that can benefit from your influence, and someone patrolling the house to ensure safety.
“My wife said that we can pay some security fees when the time comes.
"I don't know if it's convenient for you."
Xie Ruolin looked at Hong Zhiyou and asked.
"I can't live on so much land by myself, and I'm very happy that Director Sun is willing to be my neighbor.
“But I’m not selling land.
“I only sell commercial housing.”
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"What does commercial housing mean?" Xie Ruolin asked.
"I will be responsible for building all the houses. There will be a European-style villa or a Chinese-style garden house. You can choose whichever you like.
“The supporting facilities include tennis courts, swimming pools, etc.
"When it's finished, we'll sell the land and house together. Of course, the price might be a little higher."
Hong Zhiyou smiled.
He bought the island, but his family couldn't live on it.
In order to be able to sell to these high-ranking officials of the National Government, firstly, one's personal network resources can be expanded, and secondly, a high-end product community can be established.
It never gets out of style to fleece big real estate investors.
"How expensive?" Xie Ruolin asked.
Hong Zhiyou made a six gesture.
"The starting price is one hundred thousand US dollars!" said Hong Zhiyou.
“Ten…one hundred thousand!
"It's too expensive. Who can afford it?" Yu Zecheng stuttered when he heard it.
One hundred thousand dollars.
That's an astronomical figure.
“You underestimate the rich people in the government.
"Many of them use gold to exchange for US dollars, and some have relatives and friends in North America, so it is not difficult for them to pay this money.
“Besides anything else, Sun Chuanzhi’s family background can afford it.
"Of course, I will ensure their safety and the integration of the island's businesses, such as banks, shopping malls, hospitals, etc. These supporting facilities will be complete."
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"You should have seen something when you went there this time." He looked at Xie Ruolin. "Yes, the four-story hospital is almost finished.
“The road around the island is also being repaired.”
Xie Ruolin said.
"Old Xie, from now on, don't deal in intelligence and opium. It's easy for people to catch you. Just help me sell the house.
"You usually sell your products to the wives of the high-ranking officials of the Ministry of National Defense, wealthy businessmen and traders.
“If you sell one set, I’ll give you $10,000.
“If you sell 50 sets, you’ll get an additional 50,000 yuan in bonus.
"Sell 100 sets and get an additional 100,000 yuan bonus."
Hong Zhiyou took out a beautifully painted advertising book from his pocket and handed it to Xie Ruolin, while starting to draw a picture.
“Old Xie, this is 1.1 million US dollars.
"Looking at the whole country, he is also one of the richest people."
Yu Zecheng sighed with emotion.
"But can this be sold? Today's rich people are not stupid. It's difficult to empty their pockets." He glanced at Hong Zhiyou again and felt that he was a little unreliable.
"is it hard?
“Some people are buying immigration cards for US$5 million, this is just the beginning.
“What you think is a sky-high price, your life-long savings, may be just pocket money for some people.
“Those people are not afraid of running out of money, but they are afraid of running out of goods.
"The biggest guarantee for my island is safety. In addition to my North American allies, I have already established relationships with Grantham and the Chinese detectives below. With the fully armed elite security team led by Sun Cheng and Zhou Yan, entering the island is like having a life-saving talisman.
"One hundred thousand dollars can buy a life and a comfortable life for the rest of your life. For those wealthy businessmen, it's simply too cheap."
Hong Zhi said confidently.
He knows the mentality of the capitalist-roaders too well.
You can grab the money from these scumbags without even blinking an eye.
“One hundred apartments, with a total value of 10 million US dollars.
“Even the chairman may not dare to do such a big deal.
"interesting.
“I’ll take this job…I’ll take it.
"At least, I'm sure to make a profit of $10,000 from this first installment."
Xie Ruolin quickly finished scanning, tilted his head and shook the advertising calligraphy in his hand.
"make a deal.
“It’s not just about selling houses. With so many people coming to the island, he’ll have to pay for food and drink. He’ll open supermarkets, barber shops, and all kinds of businesses, and then introduce all the North American brands that they admire into the island community.
“This is all money.
“Where there are people, there are transactions; where there is money, there is money.
"This is the eternal code for making money."
Hong Zhiyou raised his glass, intending to instill some business thinking from a hundred years later into Xie Ruolin.
He can't put all his eggs in the Rong family and the shipyard.
The winery now has stable revenue.
But that is far from enough, he needs to grab more connections and money.
In this way, even if the Rong family is gone one day and the stationmaster resigns, he will still have abundant human, material and financial resources and will not be controlled by anyone.
The same thing happened when the Cao Gang was reorganized into a company.
There is no gang culture.
Those people are just simple workers.
There is no such thing as a leader or the idea of competing for the top spot.
If you don't work, don't respond when I tell you to, and can't generate any revenue, you'll be left starving.
To build a business empire, besides money, the most important thing is talent.
One person doesn't have enough energy.
When Lao Ma started his business, he had the help of the Twelve Arhats.
Old Xie is about the same age as me, and is a natural at marketing and business.
Once your horizons and thinking are broadened, you will definitely be good at managing a company.
There is no red background, and there are not so many rules and restrictions.
And after many times of "life and death together", Lao Xie's character and business ability have been verified. This kind of business partner is simply a godsend.
Hong Zhiyou even had a plan.
If Mr. Xie can market and sell more than thirty units.
He secretly established a new company, and then he added Lao Xie to his group, gave him shares, and promoted him to co-founder.
It's too early to announce now.
In case Mr. Xie fails to adapt to the local climate, I can’t let him waste my time.
In business, profit comes first.
When Xie Ruolin heard this, his eyes sparkled, as if he saw a dazzling golden mountain.
He touched Hong Zhiyou forcefully and gave him a sweet fart:
"Brother, your brain is more brilliant than those who studied abroad, and you can see further.
“If it weren’t for your sister’s excessive sex, her legs would also be… weak.
"I really feel that you are the reincarnation of Fan Li, a ghost who came back from hundreds of years ago."
"Eat meat, eat meat, boss, give us three more plates." Hong Zhiyou knew that this ghost had a vicious look, so he quickly changed the subject.
"I finally understand who made all the damn money. Now I want to join the business." Yu Zecheng said.
"Pretending!" Hong Zhiyou and Xie Ruolin said at the same time.
Lao Yu has faith, and that cannot be measured by money.
Yu Zecheng smiled, and when he saw that the meat was cooked, he scooped it up quickly and put it into another small bowl.
"Lao Yu, this... this is not enough to eat, and you're still grabbing a portion. That's... that's too much."
Xie Ruolin stretched out his chopsticks, but found nothing and became anxious.
"Old Xie, to be honest, although my family is not out of food, it takes more than half a month to get meat.
"It's a rare opportunity for me to meet you two, so I have to bring some for Cuiping."
Yu Zecheng said.
It would have been fine if I hadn’t been a leader before, but now I am a leader.
When the organization's funds became tight, he and Cuiping would find ways to collect contributions from their families.
In addition, rice, flour, grain and oil are in short supply, and prices are skyrocketing.
Just this hot pot meal, for example, is several times more expensive than before, and it is really not something he and Cuiping can afford casually.
"By the way, Lao Xie, are you still working in intelligence now?" Yu Zecheng asked, putting down his chopsticks.
“No more.
"Beating Li Ya and Lu Qiaoshan broke the rules and the whole industry was in chaos.
"If you sell too low, you lose money. If you sell too high, people will raid your house and rob you.
“Every time we meet, it’s a life-threatening situation.
“It’s really impossible to do this.”
"I am now helping Brother Hong with his business, escorting supplies and weapons, and occasionally dealing in some of their missed opportunities. It's enough to support myself, so there's no need for me to do this dangerous work."
Xie Ruolin picked up the meat and pushed most of it into the soup pool in front of Lao Yu.
"That's such a pity." Yu Zecheng frowned.
"Why, do you want to get intelligence?" Xie Ruolin asked.
"Ok.
"The Third Department's Operations Department will have a regular meeting in a few days. I want to know the military deployment of Fan Wenjie and Zheng Dongguo and others on the Jinzhou front, as well as relevant intelligence on whether the US military will intervene in the Northeast."
The rest will become the Tao.
“Where there are regular meetings, there is intelligence.
"However, there are fewer people working in intelligence now, and with rising prices, this is important military intelligence, so the price is at least three times higher than before.
"If you want to do it, you need at least five, and they have to be big ones."
He held up five fingers and told the truth.
The market price is about four.
But you need to have some connections to fly to Jingling. You can only take a free flight once, but if you take it too many times, your favors will be used up. It all costs money.
Friends are friends. He may earn less, but it is impossible for him to lose money.
"Okay." Yu Zecheng said readily.
"There is still money...money." Xie Ruolin pointed at him and laughed.
"Cui Ping helped someone to retrieve a hundred gold bars. She asked for some as hard work fee, which is just right for you." Yu Zecheng glanced at Hong Zhiyou and said.
Hong Zhiyou gave Yan Dong a hundred gold bars.
Since Yan Dong has no direct contact with Zhang Shaojie, his use value is not great.
The three killers, whose hands were stained with countless blood, were blocked and killed by Cuiping in Yantai before they could sneak back to Southeast Asia.
“As long as you have money.
"I'll find a plane to Jingling tonight. I'll give you first-hand information after the regular meeting tomorrow morning." Xie Ruolin glanced at his watch, quickly put a few pieces of meat into his mouth, pulled out a chair, stood up and said.
"Eat first before leaving." Hong Zhiyou said.
"It's better to hurry early than late. We don't know if we can catch the plane of the Northeast National Army representatives." Xie Ruolin said hello and turned to leave without any further delay.
All planes from the Northeast will stop in Jinhai to refuel, inspect, and pick up Jinhai important personnel and "extras".
Now is not like the previous years when the civil war was fierce.
There are strict restrictions on aircraft takeoff.
If you miss it, you may not be able to catch it again in half a month.
"Zhiyou, I have something to discuss with you." Without outsiders, Yu Zecheng was able to find his way.
"As long as it's not a loan, everything can be discussed." Hong Zhi nodded.
"I want to bring Liao Sanmin and Xiaohui together." Yu Zecheng put down his chopsticks, turned sideways and looked at him seriously.
"It's necessary?"
They are all smart people. Hong Zhiyi probably understood his intention just by looking at his eyes.
“It’s a must.
“The main reason is that I think Sanmin and Xiaohui are really nice.
“A passionate one, with faith.
“One is steady and has the big picture.
“Revolutionary love is extremely romantic. This was General Deng Ming’s encouragement to Zuo Lan and me when I accompanied him to visit the former site of the Awakening Society.
“Sanmin and Xiaohui deserve this romance.
“There’s one more.
"Are you sure there won't be a second Luqiao Mountain?
"She makes a scene on the streets every day, and there are many people who are targeting and jealous of her. You never know when she will break down.
"Take Lu Qiaoshan for example. You saved him time and again. If Anderson hadn't arrived in time this time, Xiaohui might have been killed by him.
"Letting Xiaohui go underground was a decision that Cuiping, Sanmin and I made after careful consideration and we reported it to the organization and received a positive response.
“The leaders of Line 1 have made it very clear that they will do their best to protect you.
“Also, your senior sister and I treat you as family.
"Dawn is approaching, we hope Xiaohui can grow up to be a real warrior, and we also hope that everyone can welcome the liberation of Jinhai intact.
“Sanmin, you understand.
"He has great character, looks, and work ability. We are all relieved that Xiaohui is with him, right?"
Yu Zecheng knew that Hong Zhiyou was very wealthy now and was about to go to Hong Kong. Once they parted ways, he might not be interested in Liao Sanmin.
"No." As expected, Hong Zhiyou refused without thinking.
"no?"
Yu Zecheng didn't expect him to refuse so bluntly, and he was a little confused for a moment.
