Zhang Xiaolong hung up the phone and sat in front of Li E again, comforting him: "Fourth brother, Jiang Fen went to Macau to ask for alimony from her family, not to see you. She left after her father gave her 60 million.
"
Since people are dead, they don't mind taking on some responsibilities. Zhang Xiaolong still has to take care of the living people. If Jiang Fen is described as a woman who only cares about money, maybe Li E will feel better.
Li E raised his head, looked at Zhang Xiaolong and smiled bitterly. This may be the trouble of wealthy families, because most of the people of the opposite sex who approach them do it for money.
"Is she?" Li E asked.
Zhang Xiaolong gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "Yes."
Is it really true? Zhang Xiaolong couldn't be sure that Jiang Fen was really a woman who came here for money. He just said this to make Li E feel better.
Now think about it, Jiang Fen wrote this song in three parts. The first part is about herself, the second part is about Li E, and the third part is still about herself.
"The setting sun falls and the snow falls in the empty boudoir." That is such a sad heart.
Seeing Li E's lackluster eyes, Zhang Xiaolong let out a long sigh in his heart. He slumped back and said with a smile: "Fourth Master, don't always be like this. Women are like clothes. Although you like them, they are just clothes and you are not changing them."
Just one piece will be enough." As he spoke, Zhang Xiaolong looked at the door carefully. If such words were to spread, he would be dead.
Li E looked at Zhang Xiaolong in surprise. In Li E's impression, Zhang Xiaolong could never say such heartless words. Soon he also laughed, and he understood that Zhang Xiaolong was trying to comfort him.
"Women are like clothes. If your brothers and sisters know about it, you will be in trouble." This is the first time Li E laughed today.
Zhang Xiaolong said hurriedly: "Fourth brother, please don't tell anyone!"
Li E said: "Don't worry! I won't tell you."
Zhang Xiaolong chuckled: "I have everything here in Macau. At this time, there is a dog racing match in my underground casino, a horse racing match at the racecourse, an underground boxing match on the gambling boat, and a midnight event at the racing track.
Death Racing, if Fourth Brother doesn't like these, the downtown opera house is performing La Traviata, and many small theaters in high-end hotels are performing new modern dramas. There must be something you like."
Li E sincerely praised: "Buddy, you are running City A so well! To tell you the truth, I have been here for three days. I have too many things to worry about at home, so I came to you to relax.
"
Zhang Xiaolong asked: "Fourth brother has been quite satisfied with his life these days."
Li E praised again: "Satisfied. You have everything here, and the prices are not high. It is a good place to relax."
Zhang Xiaolong touched his nose and said: "The tourism industry in City A has just started. Without the price advantage, it will be difficult to attract tourists. After a few years of development, prices may skyrocket."
Li E added: "That's also the eighth brother's ability."
"Stop praising me, I want to go somewhere." Zhang Xiaolong felt that if he continued to be praised, he would become proud.
Li E thought for a moment and said, "Let's go watch the horse racing."
Zhang Xiaolong asked someone to prepare the car. It was only half an hour's drive from Haiyan Villa to the racecourse. Even though it was already dark, the horse race was still crowded with people. Outside the racetrack, there were many betting machines, and people were checking the lists of participating horses and knights.
Note, the atmosphere is very fanatical.
Zhang Xiaolong and Li E bypassed the general audience area and walked to the VIP stand. On the way, they heard many audience members complaining: "I'm rich, why don't you let me bet more!"
The staff patiently explained: "Sorry, according to regulations, the betting funds for a single make-up game per ticket are only 200 yuan, so we can no longer accept your bets."
Li E asked Zhang Xiaolong in surprise: "Eighth brother, there is an upper limit for betting here."
"Small gambling is fun, but big gambling is harmful to the body. If you don't set a betting limit in an open venue, you will be criticized. Moreover, betting is organized by a welfare lottery organization, which is very legal." Zhang Xiaolong smiled mysteriously,
Said: "But there is no upper limit for outfield bets. It's like the black color of the 3D lottery."
After thinking for a while, Li E gave a thumbs up and praised: "Brother, you are really good at playing. The infield is legal and provides convenience for horse racing. Although the outfield is illegal, all the gang members in City A are subordinates of Longtang.
, if they want to draw a black lottery, they have to pay you a fee, and in the end the money will be taken away by you. You also control other games in this way."
"The model is the same." Zhang Xiaolong finally answered.
When they came to the VIP box, they watched the horse racing for a while and placed their bets respectively. Zhang Xiaolong was not very lucky and did not win the prize for three consecutive games. Li E was very lucky and won the first place in the second game.
Li E said: "Badi, you are the boss here, why don't you use a little inside information."
Zhang Xiaolong smiled honestly, stared at Li E, and said: "What's the point of winning your own money? The entire racecourse belongs to me. By the way, Fourth Brother, if you want to leave Macau, you can come to City A.
I'll leave the horse racing industry to you, so why stay at home and suffer."
Li E didn't think for too long, shook his head and said, "Badi, thank you for your kindness." He changed the subject and said to Yi Chen, "Badi, do you know how Jiang Fen and I met? It was at the racecourse.
She was not a spectator at that time, but a knight. When she was the first to cross the finish line on horseback, I was completely fascinated by her."
Zhang Xiaolong touched his nose and thought to himself: "Why are we talking about this matter again?"
Li E suddenly laughed and said: "In my whole life, I have thought that I am a successful person, and I have not always relied on my father's glory." He stood up, poured a glass of whiskey himself, and poured a glass for Zhang Xiaolong.
The two brothers raised their glasses, and Li E said with a smile: "I have decided to run away from home and work hard to create a world for myself, for my lofty ideals."
Zhang Xiaolong's heart moved, and he was amazed at Li E's determination, but was Li E's decision right? He sighed in his heart, it was better not to get involved in this matter, he didn't need to worry about Li E's affairs.
Zhang Xiaolong smiled and said: "Come on, cheers to our great future." Zhang Xiaolong thought for a while and asked: "Fourth brother, where do you plan to develop? When the time comes, our brothers will cooperate with each other and we will be absolutely invincible. However, it is best
Don't go to the United States, I've offended the Shartu family there, so don't endanger your safety because of me."
"I'm not going to the United States. I'm going to Brazil. There are many farms built by Chinese there. I'm going to be an ordinary landlord." Li E's ideal is really ordinary.
Although he was a little surprised, Zhang Xiaolong still raised his glass and gave Li E a friendly blessing.
Yamaguchi praised and said: "Mr. Yi, you have a very capable assistant." He carefully reviewed the treaty and proposed two modifications. Yi Chen nodded in approval and made three new copies.
After leaving the racecourse, Zhang Xiaolong took Li E to watch an underground boxing match and a dance performance on a gambling boat, just to make Li E happy.
At around 8:30 p.m., Zhang Quan called and said, "Boss, Jiang Fen's assassin has been found. Would you like to come over and have a look?"
"Yeah! Got it!" Zhang Xiaolong hung up the phone and said to Li E: "Fourth brother, the killer has been found. Do you want to go over and have a look."
Li E looked at his watch and praised: "The police in City A are also very efficient! It only took a little more than ten hours from the incident to the detection. It's amazing."
Zhang Xiaolong smiled and said: "I gave them the best equipment."
Zhang Xiaolong is a very efficient person. He just received the news and immediately rushed to a secret prison with Li E. To deal with such a killer, there is no need to go through normal channels. You must know that it is easy to kill people behind the scenes, but it is difficult to kill people legally.
.
After arriving at the secret prison, in the torture chamber, they met Jiang Fen's killer, a gentle girl wearing glasses.
Li E obviously knew this person, and he asked in shock: "Why?"
This woman is Jiang Fen's assistant Mo Rou.
Noila Mo saw that Li E was very scared and hurriedly begged for mercy: "Brother Li, I didn't kill Xiaofen on purpose. I really didn't do it on purpose."
Ignoring Mo Rou's pleas, Li E asked Zhang Quan, who was doing the work: "Officer Zhang, what's going on?"
Zhang Quan explained next to him: "According to forensic analysis, Ms. Jiang was stabbed from the front, but she did not make any defensive movements, which means that the murderer must be an acquaintance. We also sent out surveillance videos around 5 a.m. around the cinema,
The suspect was found dragging a heavy leather suitcase
We entered through the back door of the theater and came out twenty minutes later. The box was obviously not as heavy as before. The suspect dragged the box away with one hand, so we suspected that the theater was not the first murder scene. After many dispatches, we found the suspect's home.
, the first murder scene was at the suspect’s home.”
Li E stared at Noila Mo coldly and asked gloomily: "Tell me, why did you do this?"
In front of the irrefutable evidence, Noila Mo was also confused. She shouted loudly: "I don't want to do it either! My brother is sick and needs a lot of money. How about..."
Li E covered Noila Mo's mouth with his hand to prevent her from calling out the main messenger's name. Li E said to Zhang Xiaolong: "Eighth brother, lend me a gun."
Zhang Xiaolong nodded, and Qi Fanghang handed over a gun.
Li E put the gun on Noila Mo's head and said in a calm tone: "I will take care of your brother, you can go without worry."
Mo Rou was so frightened that she burst into tears and made a "wuwu" sound from her mouth, but she was tied to the chair and couldn't move at all. Li E closed his eyes and pulled the trigger.
"!" The world went quiet.
In the cell filled with the smell of blood, Li E took a deep breath and turned around to leave. Zhang Xiaolong did not stop him or follow him out. Instead, he waved his subordinates to prepare a car for Li E. He needed to find a place where no one was around.
, stay alone for a while quietly.
Zhang Xiaolong ordered people to collect the corpse again.
