C726 Things Are Done by Man
0"Me?" I smiled. "With my current status and identity, am I that material? "I can't, I really can't!"
Lee looked at me and slowly said: "Many times, people are forced out. Many times, people are forced out. Many times, it's all done by their own will."
Lee's words made me somewhat understand.
At lunchtime, Lee, his wife, and Qiu Tong invited me to go to dinner with them.
As I watched them leave, I thought about my conversation with Lee and stood there for a long time.
Two days later, Lee Shun returned from Yanjing.
I picked up Lee Shun at the airport. He seemed to be in a good mental state, even a bit excited.
"I'm hungry, let's eat first!" As soon as they got in the car, Lee Shun shouted, "Fuck, I didn't eat yesterday and I didn't feel hungry. Now I suddenly feel very hungry."
I immediately understood that Lee Shun skated yesterday. After skating, he didn't have any appetite, and now I think the medicinal strength has passed and he's starting to get hungry.
I drove the car to a noodle restaurant near the airport and entered with Lee Shun. Lee Shun ordered a bowl of noodles and wolfed down the noodles. I sat across from him and watched without saying a word.
Lee Shun looked at the phone and smiled: "It's a call from Qin. Our casino opened again last night, and the regular customers have all come back. Qin must be here to inform me that the harvest was good yesterday. "Come, brother, share it with me."
While speaking, Lee Shun pressed the answer button and the hands-free button. He said into the phone, "Qin, how much did you pay last night?"
"Boss Lee, our new casino opened last night has been taken care of by Lei Zi again." Qin said tiredly, "I was at the scene and got in there too. I just paid the fine and let it out. I was just in time to call you."
"What?" Holy shit! "Lee Shun's expression changed, and he shouted into the phone," What the hell is going on, has the new place been discovered? "What's going on?"
"Last night, early in the morning, just like last time, a large group of police officers suddenly rushed in. Everyone present were caught and I was unable to leave. The gambling instruments and gamblers were all taken away. This morning, we paid the same fines and let them all go. "
"Damn, how much money did you put in this time?" Lee Shun said.
"It's about the same as last time." Qin said.
"Where's Duan Xiangloong?"
"He went in too."
Lee Shun panted heavily, his eyes staring straight at the phone as he suddenly said hysterically: "Qin, just like last time, compensate the gamblers for their losses, and also give pressure fees to the brothers. Damn, I won't believe it. I can still afford the 25 million. Reputation is paramount; it must not tarnish our credibility. "You can do it today."
"Alright." Qin agreed.
"Then, you go find a new place. You have to find something more hidden. Within three days, the casino will reopen. This time I'm going to make a big table and start at 50 thousand, "Wu said." I'm going to double my speed to find the 5 million I lost. This time, keep Duan Xiangloong under close surveillance. No, keep him under house arrest. "
"Boss, Duan Xiangloong definitely didn't leak the secret this time. From the time I found a new place to the beginning, I've been hiding this from Duan Xiangloong. When he got to the casino, I sent someone to keep an eye on him.
I think that someone among our gamblers may have leaked the information. Among these people, there are a few that were pulled over by Duan Xiangloong. They are his old customers and his good friends. We can't touch gamblers. "Therefore, I suggest that we not open up the casino again for now. We should first secretly investigate the escape routes."
"You're really confused, Qin. If I don't rebuild the casino, how will I get back the money I lost? We can't choke on food. The casino had to be reopened as soon as possible. "This time, we can avoid informing the gamblers that Duan Xiangloong introduced." Lee Shun said.
"This..." Qin sounded hesitant.
"Cut the crap, do as I say!" Lee Shun said arbitrarily.
I suddenly said, "I don't agree to reopen the casino. Casinos must never be opened again for a period of time. "
"Why?" Lee Shun stared at me.
I said, "Firstly, although you didn't inform the gamblers that Duan Xiangloong introduced, although you could monitor Duan Xiangloong, but it might still be leaked out because the gamblers are all related to each other. If the gamblers that Duan Xiangloong introduced don't come, the other gamblers will still tell them where the new casino is located and invite them to come and play together. This is an uncontrollable factor that we cannot stop. Furthermore, Duan Xiangloong is not stupid, he will not personally leak the secret, he will definitely arrange for his friends to take the initiative to go and ask those gamblers. "
Lee Shun stared at me, and Qin didn't say anything on the phone.
I continued, "Secondly, this is the most important point. Why don't we pursue the matter of the casinos being fined and having their gambling confiscated? This can only mean one thing. "
"What do you mean?" Lee Shun said.
"Firstly, you have to be clear that this is Bai Laosan's operation from behind the scenes. Although I don't have any evidence, I guess he must have some sort of indirect or direct relationship with the Ningzhou police, he knows that it's very difficult to uncover the true backer of a casino, he knows that there will definitely be people who will take responsibility for it, and that they won't be able to hold you accountable. The move he is using now is actually using your personality to destroy your economic pillar, and if you capture someone who wants to confiscate your gambling capital, you can let them in once, and enter twice.
For the police, it was the same as adding in huge fines time and time again. It was the same as opening up an endless stream of money, so why wouldn't they do it? "If you reopen the casino, no matter how hard you try to keep the secret, or if Duan Xiangloong and his friends don't tell you, as long as the police have their eyes on them, they will find you and you will be the one to blame."
Lee Shun listened to what I had to say. He blinked his eyes and didn't say anything.
"Boss Lee, I think what Yi Ke said is very reasonable. His analysis is very accurate!" Qin said on the phone.
Lee Shun was silent for a while and then nodded, "Yes, that's right. Fuck, this is Bai Laosan's trick, why didn't I think of it? He was trying to destroy my building with the help of the police. F * ck, this dog is really smart. High IQ, damn it. This bastard must have graduated from high school, his IQ must not be low. "
As Lee Shun said this, the corner of his mouth curled up into a smile. He then said into the phone, "Alright then, Qin, let's call it a day for now. After withdrawing their troops for a while, they would first pacify the gamblers, just like last time. These are all our precious customer resources, and we'll have to redevelop them in the future. "It doesn't matter if we pay a little more, credibility is the most important."
Qin answered on the phone, then Lee Shun hung up.
"Damn, why didn't you tell me this last time?" Lee Shun looked at me.
"I didn't expect it last time." "No," I said.
"Heh heh." Lee Shun laughed sinisterly, "However, it's not too late to think about it now. I've only lost a mere 5 million these two times, my bones are so strong, it hasn't hurt my skin at all. Hmph, Bai Laosan, just you wait, this time I will make you cry for your parents. I'm going to skin you and pull your tendons. Your dog's family is comparable to mine, if you can't do it, then let's see who can do it. "
I understand the meaning behind Lee Shun's words. Even though Bai Laosan's collection of money was relatively quick, he started off late and only after Lei Zheng arrived at Hsinghai did he start to expand with the help of his might. Compared to the Lee Shun who has been undercover for many years, his family is indeed much thinner. Of course, I have no idea how strong Lee Shun's family background is.
At the same time, from Lee Shun's words, I could sense that the reason Lee Shun went to Yanjing was definitely because of Bai Laosan. It was very likely that he would make some moves against Bai Laosan in the near future. I don't know what he did to Bai Laosan after he went to the Yanjing, but I do know that it must be related to the worth of information.
After the meal, Lee Shun stood up and said, "Let's go back to the airport! This daddy will fly back to Ningzhou now and see what else those big ghosts can do. This daddy still needs to watch the grand show from a thousand miles away in Ningzhou. "
I sent Lee Shun back to the airport. Lee Shun bought a ticket to Ningzhou and flew south.
In the next few days, I was busy with the company's work. As I was busy, my heart was always concerned about Hai Zhu. I didn't know how she had led these days, and I didn't know if she had led a good life.
Several times when I was out on business, I purposely drove past Hai Zhu's company's entrance, slowing down and turning my head to look inside, wanting to see Hai Zhu. However, I didn't see her at all. Instead, I saw Sweetie Ru a few times. Sweetie Ru pointed to the door with her finger, indicating that Hai Zhu was inside.
I couldn't help but want to stop the car a few times, but when I thought about what Hai Zhu had said that day and her resolute expression, I was afraid that going in would make her even more upset, so I didn't stop the car.
It was a lonely, dreary night, and after I'd poured a Erguotou into my stomach, I couldn't help but reach for the phone and dial Hai Zhu's number.
"Zhu." All I could do was scream, and suddenly my throat closed and I couldn't speak anymore.
Hai Zhu remained silent for a long time on the other end of the phone, so much so that I could hear her breathing. Then, I heard her extremely calm voice: "Yi Ke, I hope you can find a better woman. Actually, there are many outstanding women around you. And please respect my choice. Please take care of yourself. Please take care of yourself. Please. Please. Do not disturb my life! "
Hai Zhu's last words were unusually harsh, yet cold and resolute.
With that, Hai Zhu hung up the phone.
Listening to the merciless beep on the phone, my heart immediately fell into a cold abyss.
Under the anesthetic of alcohol, with pain and worry, with loneliness and despair, with remorse and self-blame, with helplessness and helplessness, I fell head first onto the sofa.
The next day, I put away the great pain and depression in my heart and went back to my busy work.
Toward the end of the afternoon, I received a call from Cao Lee informing me to follow Sun Dongkai to a winery in the evening. I wanted to decline.
At night, I sat in the front passenger seat while Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee sat in the back. I sat in silence in the front row while Cao Lee and Sun Dongkai chatted happily in the back.
The car went straight to the Crown Hotel.
We went upstairs to a luxurious private room in the dining room. I followed behind Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee.
As soon as I entered, I saw a man sitting in the middle of the table, smoking a cigarette.
Lei Zheng!
Bai Laosan's brother-in-law, Lei Zheng!
The Standing Committee of the Municipal Committee and the Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, Lei Zheng!
Seeing Lei Zheng, both Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee's face revealed a flattering smile. Sun Dongkai said, "Secretary Lei has arrived early. I'm sorry for making the Leader wait for so long."
Cao Lee echoed, "Yes, yes."
I stood behind him and looked at Lei Zheng without saying a word.
"There's no need to stand on ceremony, sit —" Lei Zheng sat there without lifting his butt. His gaze swept across Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee, then fell on me.
