Li Jin smiled and said: "Mr. Hu's words are really flattering to me. I can't bear my small fortune now. If I had known Mr. Hu earlier, wouldn't I have been swallowed up by all the bones and dregs?"
Hu Taidou said calmly: "Little fox, do you have resentment?"
"I just came out of the forum summit. I thought that no matter whether the outcome is good or bad, I must report it to you. Of course I have grievances. After all, I am young and ignorant. There are many things that I can't see in my eyes.
.”
Hu Taidou suddenly laughed.
"Haha, little fox, since you said you would report it to me, will the result be good or bad?"
Li Jin said calmly: "For you, Mr. Hu, it is naturally bad. For me personally, it is neither good nor bad. In any case, I still have to thank you, Mr. Hu."
"Because this time, it taught me a lesson. I will remember this lesson and avoid doing it again in the future."
Hu Taidou's tone was still relaxed, "It's good if you think so. Everything is smooth sailing for people walking in society. It's not a bad thing to suffer some losses while you are young."
"Mr. Hu's lesson is right. I am young and can still afford to suffer losses and pay for my tuition. But the same cannot be said for you, Mr. Hu." Li Jin said calmly.
Hu Taidou said with a half-smile: "It sounds like you are planning to do something to me?"
"Not really. Even if I really want to do something, I definitely won't say hello to you in advance. I'll give you time to prepare, right?"
"What's more, the Huizhou merchant factions are deeply intertwined. No matter how arrogant I, Li Jin, am, I'm not crazy enough to think that I can compete with the entire Huizhou merchants now."
Listening to Li Jin's words, Hu Taidou said in a deep voice: "So when you grow up, you will still not forget what happened tonight? Are you not afraid that I will nip this dangerous sign of yours in the cradle?"
"Mr. Hu, you always call me a little fox. If you say something disrespectful, in my eyes, you are also an old fox. Since everyone is a fox, don't pretend to be a house cat with your tail between your legs."
"Do you believe me when I say I won't worry about it anymore? Do I believe you when you say you won't be on guard against me?"
"Since you don't believe it, there's no need to deal with those vain people, right?"
"The purpose of this call tonight is very simple. The first thing is to inform you that this forum summit is over. It's not good for you, but it's not bad for me."
"The second purpose is to tell you, old man, that I just made a bet with Ke Yongxin. I heard that he has a big handle on you? I am very interested in this handle."
It took a long time after Li Jin finished speaking, but Hu Taidou didn't give any response.
Li Jin, who was sitting in the car, couldn't see Hu Taidou's expression, but he could probably guess that the old man must be quite unhappy at this time.
"As he said himself, the Huizhou merchants and the Chaozhou merchant gang are at odds with each other, and everyone expects the other party to die without a burial place."
"You use him, and he uses you. You two use each other against me, and now I'm involved in this game. The three of us, let's plot against each other to see who is the true friend and who is the real friend.
Real enemy?"
Hu Taidou was silent until he heard Li Jin's words and said in a deep voice: "How about we cooperate?"
Li Jin chuckled lightly and said, "Mr. Hu, you are such an old fox. It's a pity that I just paid my tuition. I'll be fooled by the same thing again. Am I that kind of person?"
"Aren't you afraid of me cooperating with Ke Yongxin?" Hu Taidou said playfully.
