Chapter 800: When the wind breaks through the waves, sometimes the clouds and sails will float across the sea.
Two days later, in the early morning, on a rainy day, Kuala Lumpur.
In a quiet villa near the city garden, Reina was naked on a comfortable big bed, and Haitang was sleeping in spring.
In her sleep, Reina lazily turned over and rubbed her arms unconsciously, but did not touch the man next to her.
Lei Na was startled. She opened her eyes suddenly and sat up. She found that Du Weiguo had already gotten up and was standing shirtless on the balcony smoking.
At this moment, the sky was bright, the clouds were overcast, and there was a slight chill in the air. Reina wrapped herself in a quilt, got out of bed barefoot, and hugged Du Weiguo from behind.
Her fingers traced the upper reaches of Du Weiguo's steel-like muscles with unusual gentleness, and finally stopped on a new hideous scar on his neck.
These are the scars caused by arc burns after a thunderstorm transformed in Sumatra Island two days ago. He was almost beheaded and narrowly escaped death.
The wound at that time was very hideous, with bones visible deep inside. Now the scab has peeled off and new flesh has grown, but it still looks shocking.
Reina gently stroked the tender red skin and said in a very pitiful tone: "Does it still hurt?"
Du Weiguo's eyes were heavy as he looked to the north, as if he had seen the familiar imperial city through the endless clouds.
Hearing Lei Na's question, Du Weiguo withdrew his gaze, slowly exhaled the smoke, without looking back, and replied calmly:
"It's a small injury, it doesn't hurt, I'm used to it."
Lei Na didn't know that Du Weiguo had terrible self-healing ability. She thought it was just a superficial burn and sighed:
"Wesley, there is no good place on your body. New injuries are piled on top of old ones. It's hard to imagine that a person can still be alive after suffering so many injuries.
Sometimes I really don’t understand. You are considered powerful and wealthy now, and you can enjoy life without any worries. Why are you so desperate?"
Du Weiguo sneered and flicked the cigarette butt away. After the cigarette butt flew more than ten meters in the air, it was directly broken into dregs by the huge wind resistance and scattered with the wind.
"Ha! Enjoy life? Reina, where can I go to enjoy life? People are in the rivers and lakes and cannot help themselves. Now we are sailing against the current. If we don't advance, we will retreat.
If I don't work hard and try to give myself some room to move around in the fight, I can only be reduced to a puppet on strings, at the mercy of others. I said, give me freedom or give me death."
A trace of determination flashed in Reina's eyes:
"Wesley, now that you have broken with the Freemasons and are at war with each other, you should close down all the stalls in America and Pattaya, and gather all the people back to Hong Kong Island. I will do my best~~"
Du Weiguo knew that she had good intentions. After all, Hong Kong Island is Reina's base camp, the strongest, and there is also a strong official identity there. The fox pretends to be powerful, and she can relatively protect her.
But in this case, Reina would be under a lot of pressure. She would defend Du Weiguo with a clear-cut banner and hard-core Freemasonry. If she didn't do it right, she would face disaster.
The key point is that even if she tries her best, she is just a dragonfly shaking a pillar and a mantis' arm acting as a chariot. She cannot stop her at all.
Du Weiguo was not a hard-hearted person, so he was a little moved. He turned around and hugged Reina, and gently rubbed her red hair:
"Rena, it's not over yet. Although the Freemasons have repeatedly set up traps to trick me, as long as I'm not dead, they don't dare to touch my plate.
You can't put all your eggs in one basket. Besides, Hong Kong Island is too small and there is no room for maneuver."
Lei Na also knew that Du Weiguo's heart was as solid as a rock. Even if he and the Freemasons were at odds with each other, they could not be persuaded at all. She could only sigh secretly and asked in a faint tone:
"Wesley, what are your plans next?"
Du Weiguo gently rubbed Lei Na's smooth shoulders, his eyes were deep and his tone was light:
"Rena, please help me find a way to transfer these dog heads to the Freemasons first, and then give me a message."
Reina's eyes flickered, a little curious: "What are you talking about?"
Du Weiguo's tone was calm and he said word for word:
"100 million US dollars, 50 million is for my medical expenses, and the other 50 million is for the life of Burne Perez."
Upon hearing this, Lei Na opened her mouth, but no words came out. Du Weiguo's request sounded extremely absurd, but if she smacked it carefully, it turned out to be reasonable.
The main reason why Du Weiguo asked the lion to open his mouth and blackmail Bourne severely was to delay the attack.
If he were like a headless fly now, frantically searching for Bourne's whereabouts and alerting others, he would easily be taken advantage of by the Freemasons.
The enemy is in darkness and we are in the clear. Du Weiguo is still ready for a full-scale war. He still needs to continue to lie dormant, waiting for the Evil Gods to fully grow up and find the life gate of Freemasonry, and strike with a fatal blow!
At noon, Du Weiguo met the future shipping king Bao Yugang in the suite of the Oriental Mandarin Hotel in Kuala Lumpur.
He is fat, short, about fifty years old, and has an unattractive appearance. At this moment, his face is even more sad, his eyes are red, he has obviously cried, and he is so sad that he cannot control himself.
After all, all the veteran crew members of the three sea-going ships were killed. Bao Yugang was a very emotional person who was more concerned with public affairs than private affairs. How could he be happy?
However, when he saw Du Weiguo, Bao Yugang still calmed down, kept his spirits up, and stretched out his hand to greet him politely:
"Hello, Mr. Wesley, I'm really troubling you this time. I heard that these pirates are so rampant and lawless that they even bombed the Xialuogan County House, which has troubled you."
Very few people know the specific truth about the explosion that occurred in Haluokan County, Sumatra Island, and it is impossible for all those with knowledge to disclose the truth.
In other words, even if it were announced, no one would believe it. This guy Zhongjiang hid it very deeply and left no loopholes.
Besides, these tricks of manipulating public opinion to confuse the public and annihilate the truth are capital's specialties. They have special skills and don't be too familiar with them.
The bombing incident in Haluogan County has now been concluded, and the group of pirates entrenched in Dumai have naturally become the ones taking the blame.
Anyway, they were all sent to hell by Du Weiguo and died without evidence. Moreover, in the news, they were killed by troops sent by the Thousand Islands Kingdom, known as a thunder strike.
This news, reported by the official media of the Thousand Islands Country, is simply calling a deer a horse, which is extremely shameless.
It's shameless, but it's so effective. At least most people believe it. The so-called truth is often like this. It's something that some people want you to know after being carefully packaged.
Anyway, given the current level that the Charter King is at, there is no way he can know the truth.
Facing Bao Yugang, Du Weiguo actually felt very guilty and full of guilt. In the final analysis, the pirate hijacking incident was all caused by him.
And these poor and innocent crew members who were killed naturally all died because of him. Typically, I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.
Du Weiguo shook hands with him and said in a very polite tone: "Sheng Bao, it's a pleasure to meet you. I have admired his name for a long time. He has passed away. Please bear with me and accept the change."
To this day, Du Weiguo is no longer a fledgling boy. The city is growing day by day, and he has no expressions of joy and anger. Naturally, he will not tell the whole truth.
Sometimes, knowing the truth may not be a good thing. The truth is often cruel beyond imagination and may be simply unbearable.
For example, the hijacking of a ship and the killing of crew members in Sumatra were behind the scenes. The Freemasonry was behind it. Even if Bao Yugang knew about it, what would he do?
The mayfly shakes the tree, but if it really gets to the head, it will end up being ground into powder.
Bao Yugang's eyes were red and his tone was sincere:
"Thank you very much, Mr. Wesley. This is fate. No matter what, I still thank you for your generous help. As for the reward~"
Du Weiguo patted him on the shoulder:
"Sheng Bao, there is no need to mention the remuneration. I like the BMW sports car you gave me before, so I take it as remuneration.
The rest is my personal contribution to provide for the future compensation of these innocent seafarers."
Bao Yugang burst into tears and became emotional. He held Du Weiguo's hand hard and his voice choked with sobs:
"Mr. Wesley is very righteous. From now on, wherever my Bao Yugang is needed, just give me orders~"
Lao Bao's tears welled up and choked his throat, and he could no longer speak. Du Weiguo felt even more apologetic when he saw him like this.
Du Weiguo, this big moth, has recently become more mature, and is flapping his wings crazily, setting off huge waves that are as overwhelming as the sky.
According to the historical trajectory, in the second half of this year, when Bao Yugang made his fortune, the oil crisis recently broke out in the Middle East, oil prices soared, and the demand for maritime transport capacity was strong.
Bao Yugang was originally planning to roll up his sleeves and go for a big fight, but disaster struck from the sky. The sudden loss of hundreds of loyal old seamen, as well as the subsequent pensions, were such a heavy blow that he was almost overwhelmed.
If the current trend develops, if the future shipping king misses this rare opportunity and suffers heavy losses, it is very likely that he will be unable to recover and die on the way.
Du Weiguo had some concerns in his mind and reached out to pat his shoulder:
"Sheng Bao, please calm down first. I want to talk to you about some business matters."
"Um?"
Bao Yugang was startled for a moment. He was very surprised. However, he was not an ordinary person to be able to be a ship king. He could pick it up and put it down. He quickly calmed down, sniffed, and asked in a deep voice:
"Business? Mr. Wesley, do you want to transport any goods by sea? I didn't say anything, as long as it is a ship in my name, you can use it as you like without taking any money."
Du Weiguo smiled and shook his head:
"Sheng Bao, I'm just a reckless man who only knows how to fight and kill, and I don't know how to do business. How can I transport any goods?"
Bao Yugang didn't know what was going on and was a little confused: "Mr. Wesley, you are too modest. What do you mean by business?"
Du Weiguo popped out his cigarette case, lit a cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and took the opportunity to sort out his thoughts:
"It's like this, Mr. Bao, as for me, I have been fighting and killing outside for the past two years, and I have accumulated some savings.
Rather than leaving all this money in the bank to grow hairy, it is better to choose a more reliable business to invest in."
Investing in industry was not Du Weiguo's impromptu idea. His savings are getting stronger now. Money stored in the bank is dead money and will only depreciate.
Bao Yugang is a business wizard, extremely shrewd, he can instantly understand the elegant meaning of strings, his eyes flash:
"Mr. Wesley, do you mean you want to invest in the lowly property in my name?"
Du Weiguo nodded: "I do have this intention, but I don't know if it is offensive or not?"
When talking about business, Bao Yugang's eyes suddenly lit up, and the sadness just now was swept away, and he spoke excitedly:
"It's not rude, it's not rude. It's a great honor for me, Bao Yugang, that Mr. Wesley favors my business. I just don't know how much you want to invest?"
Although Bao Yugang didn't know Du Weiguo's true worth, he knew from his old friend Huo Xian that Du Weiguo was making money every day in Pattaya, so he naturally didn't dare to underestimate it.
He is now at the end of his rope. Three sea-going ships have to be completely abandoned, hiring crew members, and arranging pensions all require a lot of time and money.
And the loan he owes to the bank is about to expire. By then, if he cannot repay the loan on time, there are only two ways in front of him.
Either the mortgaged freighter was taken away by the bank, and everything was lost, or else he went to an underground bank to borrow money from usurious loans to quench his thirst.
Originally, he could have turned to Huo Xian for some cash flow, but recently Huo Xian's cash flow has been locked up by the real estate project in Pattaya, and he also owes the bank a lot of money, and he is unable to make ends meet.
At this moment, Du Weiguo took the initiative to inject capital, which was a timely help. Not only could it solve an urgent need, but the invisible benefits were unimaginable.
You must know that the name of the evil god resounds throughout the world, whether it is Japan, Hong Kong Island, Siam, Korea, or Malacca, he is famous.
With the evil god's endorsement, it is estimated that from now on, throughout Asia, his fleet will be able to sail smoothly and calmly, with many benefits.
Du Weiguo chuckled and asked in a calm tone:
"Hey, I'm sorry, but I won't overwhelm you, how much investment quota can you take?"
You must listen to your words. When he heard this, Bao Yugang suddenly raised his thick eyebrows, his eyes were bright, and he quickly calculated in his mind:
"Mr. Wesley, to tell you the truth, the current situation of my business is not very good. It has a total of 8 sea-going ships, 5 of which have been rented to Japan. You also know that the remaining 3 ships cannot be launched in the short term.
sail.
The three new ships scheduled in England will not be launched until September. Currently, the bank still has a loan of US$6 million, and the first tranche of US$2 million is about to expire."
Du Weiguo did not interrupt and listened calmly. Bao Yugang glanced at his face, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice:
"Mr. Wesley, therefore, my current investment limit is US$8 million, and you can hold 30% of the shares."
To be honest, the acquisition plan proposed by Bao Yugang is a bit exaggerated, but it is still reasonable. After all, he does not have a penny of reserve funds.
Moreover, they also have invisible values such as docks, warehouses, containers, companies, accumulated customer resources, business reputation, etc.
Du Weiguo pondered for a moment and replied in a calm tone:
"In this case, Bao Xian, I agree to invest 8 million US dollars, accounting for 30% of the shares, and then I will personally lend you 7 million US dollars without interest for a period of 2 years, and immediately acquire several old ships to expand the size of our fleet."
Bao Yugang was stunned. The conditions offered by Du Weiguo could not be described as generous. It was like a pie falling from the sky. He had won a big prize.
Bao Yugang's tone stuttered:
"Wei, Mr. Wesley, your terms are too, too generous. Do you believe me so much? Aren't you afraid that I will default on my debt?"
"Hahaha! Mr. Bao, I am not a businessman. I am an evil god who kills people without blinking an eye. I usually blackmail people. There are not many people who dare to take advantage of me."
Du Weiguo laughed loudly and joked in a relaxed tone. Bao Yugang also suddenly realized that the handsome and talkative young man in front of him was not a businessman.
Indeed, it is true that no one dares to grow hairy and rely on the evil god. The bones of the lame man are not yet cold, and the sea of blood in Kowloon Walled City has not yet dried up. The lessons learned from the past are laid out bloody. Who dares to explode?
After Du Weiguo left Hong Kong Island, what he did that night in the Kowloon Walled City has been spread throughout the world.
In the blink of an eye, without even taking out a gun, he slaughtered dozens of people with just a black evil rope mark, leaving rivers of blood and corpses scattered everywhere.
With his own strength, he scared hundreds of swordsmen to death, wiped out the Kowloon Walled City, and even set new rules.
Such a method has completely suppressed the world of Hong Kong Island and has become a legend. Almost all short mules are frightened by it. It is said that some young and Dangerous boys have begun to worship the evil statue, hehe.
Du Weiguo crushed the cigarette butt and suddenly changed the subject:
"Sheng Bao, in business, I'm going to tell you the ugly truth. My interest-free loan of US$7 million is not for charity. In two years, it will be exchanged for 18% of the shares of the fleet."
Upon hearing this, Bao Yugang's face suddenly became solemn and he fell silent. This business seemed to be a good deal, but the 48% stake was quite ambiguous and a bit dangerous.
Once he has another situation where the horse is too high and the stirrups are short, the capital chain is broken, and Du Weiguo continues to invest more, the fleet will change its owner.
Examples like this happen all the time, and the management finally kicks the founder out. This fleet is his hard work, and he cannot treat it with caution.
Bao Yugang lowered his head and pondered, and Du Weiguo didn't urge him. He smiled and rubbed the cigarette ashes on his fingers.
After a while, Bao Yugang let out a breath of relief, his eyes clear, he reached out his hand, and replied in a deep voice:
"make a deal."
Du Weiguo raised his eyebrows and did not shake hands with him immediately. Instead, he teased in a teasing tone:
"Sheng Bao, have you thought about it, aren't you afraid that I will swallow the fleet in one go?"
Bao Yugang seemed to have figured it out, his expression relaxed and his tone became relaxed:
"Haha, you won't, Mr. Wesley, if you really want to swallow up this little bit of my inheritance, there is no need to go to such trouble or wait for so long!"
He was worthy of being the all-powerful shipping king of the generation, with exquisite features and extraordinary courage. He figured out the joints in an instant. Du Weiguo laughed heartily, shook his hand tightly, and said in a heroic tone:
"Deal! There will be times when there are strong winds and waves, and sails will sail across the sea! Mr. Bao, I wish us a happy cooperation." (End of this chapter)
