Chapter Thirty-Five: A Gamble(2/5)
"Mr. Huo, if you don't mind, why don't I go down with you? Since our two families are already in a cooperative relationship, no matter what Huo Jingliang wants to do, I will definitely advance and retreat together."
"I just don't know if Mr. Ye would welcome a nobody like me!"
"oh?"
Huo Jingliang looked at Yaoyang, a flash of shock flashed in his eyes, and he couldn't help but say:
"Yao Yangzi, have you heard of Howard's Ming University?"
"One of the top ten real estate groups in Hong Kong Comprehensive City. Although I have no experience, I have heard of it!"
Yaoyang nodded, and after saying this, he immediately asked:
"So what? I'm a police officer!"
"I have long heard that real estate developers in Hong Kong Comprehensive City have many illegal practices in property repossession. It is not uncommon for real estate developers to collude with triads. A group as big as Mingda, as a senior member of the Mong Kok Anti-Gangster Group,
Inspector, of course it is necessary for me to get to know the senior management of their group first, so as to avoid dealing with the wrong person in the future, which would be bad."
hiss……
Feng Qianshan was speechless after hearing Yaoyang's words.
With these words, Yaoyang simply said clearly:
If Huo Jingliang said a word, he would be willing to help deal with the Mingda Group.
What is meant by "illegal property repossession"? To put it bluntly, it means that real estate developers pay people on the street to scare the owners who refuse to move.
The police generally pay little attention to such matters.
After all, even if you know it's a real estate developer who is doing this kind of intimidation, it doesn't matter if there is no evidence or evidence, you can't control it at all.
Yaoyang just expressed this attitude, if possible, he would take care of it.
It can be said that it is extremely difficult for a giant, a top real estate developer in Hong Kong Comprehensive City, and a senior inspector in Yaoyang District to make such a statement.
Zhan Mizi didn't say anything, picked up a glass of red wine and stood up. It was obvious that no matter what Yaoyang did, he would follow.
A flash of admiration flashed across Ding Shanben's face, and he also picked up a glass of red wine and stood up. Although Ding Shanben was a good person, he was educated by his father, which was actually an education of loyalty.
In his opinion, Ye Xiaoli was indeed a bit immoral, and seducing his second sister-in-law was a taboo in the world.
Besides, he was not familiar with Ye, but Huo Jingliang had a very good relationship with his father. Under such circumstances, if he vented his anger with Huo Jingliang, I believe his father would support him.
Moreover, Differ Group is not afraid of Mingda Group at all. The industries are completely different. If the two companies really fight, we don’t know who will win and who will lose.
To put it bluntly, Ye Xiaoli didn't dare to do anything to Ding Shanben, and he didn't even know how to hold a grudge.
Huo Jingliang has been in the Hong Kong Comprehensive Market for many years and has a very clear understanding of everyone's thoughts and strengths.
Ding Shanben and Zhan Mizai got up and prepared to go downstairs with him. He was not surprised at all, but he felt extremely heart-warmed by Yaoyang's attitude.
"Hahaha……"
Patting Yaoyang's high shoulder, Huo Jingliang said with emotion:
"Okay, Yaoyangzi, don't worry, if I, Huo Jingliang, are around for one day, if someone in the business world wants to touch you, I will definitely make him regret it!"
"Let's go down together."
After saying that, Huo Jingliang took the lead, followed by Yaoyang, Ding Shanben, and Zhan Mizai and walked out of the box with red wine glasses.
It is not good to keep Feng Qianshan and follow him, and it is not good not to follow him.
After sitting there for a long time, he just picked up a glass of red wine and followed suit.
He finally figured it out. If he offended Ye Xiaoli, he would be targeted by the other party and lose some money, but it would not shake the foundation of the Feng family.
If he offends Huo Jingliang, Huo Jingliang is half a gangster and will really deal with him at all costs.
Especially now, 30% of Feng's stock is still held by Huo Jingliang. It will not be difficult for Huo Jingliang to touch Feng's.
Especially now, 30% of Feng's stock is still held by Huo Jingliang. It will not be difficult for Huo Jingliang to touch Feng's.
Furthermore, Huo Jingliang and others had just helped him. As a Chaozhou native, Feng Qianshan made him ungrateful. He really couldn't do it.
The second floor of Queen's Restaurant.
This is a huge banquet hall, different from the private rooms on the third floor. Like other restaurants, this is a place for wedding banquets and wedding banquets for guests.
But to hold a banquet here, I heard that even having money is not enough. You have to have reputation and status.
The owner of the Queen's Restaurant is an old British nobleman with the title of earl. He no longer values so-called money.
He is committed to making his hotel a status symbol.
Therefore, when a banquet is held at the Queen's Restaurant, guests will be selected.
It is said that if you want to hold a banquet here, you must make a reservation one month in advance and submit the list of banquet initiators to the hotel for review.
The hotel has its own method to determine whether you are qualified to have a banquet here. Finally, the hotel will give a response as to whether it will allow you to have a banquet.
It is precisely because of such unkind rules that the Queen's Restaurant is known as the "Lady of the Far East" and is sought after by countless dignitaries.
Ye Xiaoli, one of the top ten real estate developers in Hong Kong Comprehensive City, is certainly qualified to hold a banquet at the Queen Restaurant, so that night, this place belongs to Ye Xiaoli.
In the magnificent lobby on the second floor, countless guests were dressed in formal attires, and bigwigs from all walks of life gathered, either socializing or exchanging pleasantries. Everyone seemed very happy, at least on the surface.
Ye Xiaoli is a little older than Huo Jingliang. He looks to be in his fifties. He is not tall, but looks stable and extraordinary.
With a smile on his face, he was held by the wrist by his wife, holding a wine glass, and walked in the lobby, constantly greeting the guests.
"Hahaha, Brother Deng, you are a little late. What have you been busy with recently?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, I am indeed delayed by something. What can I be busy with other than the company's matters. Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, congratulations!"
"Thanks!"
"Excuse me. Hi, Brother Wang. I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you? How are you doing lately? I heard that your company has developed a new project in Southeast Asia. How is it? Do you count me in?"
"Haha, if Mr. Ye is willing to invest, our Wang family will definitely welcome it. Come on, Mr. Ye, Mrs. Ye, congratulations, I'd like to toast you!"
"Thanks!"
Just when Ye Xiaoli was working with his wife to greet the guests and liven up the atmosphere.
The door to the hall on the second floor was opened, and the figures of Huo Jingliang, Yaoyang and others appeared, walking boldly, and after a short pause, they immediately walked towards this side.
"Well? Why is he here?"
Seeing Huo Jingliang, Ye Xiaoli and his wife looked at each other, and they both saw doubts in each other's eyes.
But the next second, both parties understood tacitly from their eyes that Huo Jingliang came uninvited, and his significant other did not invite the other party.
In Hong Kong Comprehensive Market, although Huo Jingliang is not the richest, he must be among the top arrogant rich people.
Almost all people from all walks of life, even those who are slightly famous, know Huo Jingliang.
At a banquet of Ye Xiaoli's level, more than 70% of the people knew Huo Jingliang.
Moreover, these people are also very aware of the grudges between Huo Jingliang and Ye Xiaoli.
Seeing that Huo Jingliang also came to the banquet today, many guests could not help but lower their voices and looked at Ye Xiaoli and his wife, their eyes full of gossip.
"Hahaha……"
Huo Jingliang, Yaoyang and his party entered the hall, led by Huo Jingliang. When they saw Ye Xiaoli, they walked over with a big smile.
Ye Xiaoli also put on a smile, patted his wife's hand, and greeted her at the same time.
"Old friend, why are you here? I don't seem to have sent you an invitation!"
Ye Xiaoli was still middle-aged at this time, and he was also very tough. When facing this guy who had deep hatred, he was not polite at all. Although he smiled broadly, his tone was tough.
Mrs. Ye was more aware of etiquette. She looked at Ye Xiaoli with some reproach at first and said:
"Howard!"
Immediately, he looked at Huo Jingliang with a smile and said:
"Dacid, I really didn't expect you to come over. By the way, Helen is over there too!"
Facing Ye Xiaoli, Huo Jingliang's momentum was not weak at all, and he laughed and said:
"Hahaha, Brother Ye's banquet, even if there are no invitations, I still want to come to congratulate you. We didn't invite so many people. Brother Ye won't be sad about the drinks, right? If that's the case, the drinks tonight
, I, Huo Jingliang, paid for it for you, which can be regarded as a congratulations to my brother on his tenth wedding anniversary!"
Then, Huo Jingliang immediately looked at Mrs. Ye and said with a smile:
"Oh? Is my daughter here too? Hahaha, okay, my daughter is really like me, she misses family ties! After all, it is a commemorative day for the family, an important day."
"Depend on!"
Huo Jingliang's words could be heard behind Ding Shanben, Zhan Mizai, and Feng Qianshan speechless. What kind of congratulation is this? It's completely a provocation:
"What is a family anniversary? It's almost obvious that Ye Xiaoli picked up worn shoes. Mrs. Ye is his ex-wife."
"As for Huo Jingliang paying for the drinks, it's even more bizarre. If Ye Xiaoli really agrees, he will lose all face."
Regarding Huo Jingliang's aggressive and obviously trouble-seeking attitude, Ye Xiaoli took a deep breath and said:
"Dacid, some things have passed away. Everyone has their own choice. Isn't it too rude of you to hold on to it?"
