The Peninsula Hotel is the oldest hotel in Houseville, and it was once the most prestigious hotel, but that was a hundred years ago.
Nowadays, the Peninsula Hotel has lost its glory due to the impact of various new tourist hotels.
Its five-story building was built a hundred years ago and has not changed since.
But its location is good, in a prime location on the bay with one of the best beaches.
However, it is conservative and has extremely backward business philosophy. Moreover, the hotel was once owned by a key member of the People's Glory Party. After that key member was sentenced to hanging, the hotel and Peninsula Football Club were sold together.
Peninsula Football Club is the favorite of Houseville people. Although its results are very good in the Southeast Regional League, today's football clubs basically have to pay a premium to maintain their results.
If Peninsula Football Club dares to cut expenses, it may cause fan riots.
The hotel and club were purchased by local owners who were unable to get off the ground. The hotel's surplus was not enough to cover the club's shortfall, which meant that they had been losing money after purchasing these two assets.
Today, Lu Ming and the boss named Rooney are chatting about business under the beach umbrella of the Peninsula Hotel. The golden sand on the beach is extremely fine, snow-white waves are beating on the rocks, but there are not many customers.
Yuluan and Heitou were wearing bikinis, playing in the sand not far away, building sand sculpture castles, burying each other in the sand, playing like two children. It can be seen that the two have been together for a long time, and their relationship is getting better and better.
Neither of them experienced a normal childhood, but now they have playmates, and their way of getting along is very childlike.
"The local accounting firm will not cheat Mr. Lu with me!" Opposite him, Rooney smiled bitterly.
This is the fourth meeting between the two. There is no affairs officer. Lu Ming will discuss the purchase by himself. Of course, he will just discuss the intention. Later, a team from Donghai will naturally check the accounts and assets and conduct negotiations to finalize the amount and conditions.
.
"It doesn't matter whether it's local or not. I have my own accounting firm and I'm used to it." Lu Ming smiled.
Rooney shook his head. It seemed that he could only wait. Finally, a buyer came. He really hoped that the negotiation would be successful and he would give away these two hot potatoes.
"Mr. Rooney's hometown is in Haussia?" Lu Ming suddenly asked.
Hauscia is an area where the peninsula and the mainland are connected. It is mountainous and hilly. It also has the earliest coal mines developed by the empire. However, its coal seams are relatively thin, and after decades of mining, they are no longer sustainable.
"Yes." Rooney glanced at Lu Ming. This young man could tell that he was very powerful when they first met him. Sure enough, his background was all checked.
"Have you seen these three people?" Lu Ming took out some photos and showed them to Rooney.
It’s true to buy hotels and football clubs. They’re all at bargain prices anyway, so I have a lot of ideas.
The investigation is also true.
When showing the photo to Rooney, Lu Ming looked at his expression for a moment.
"Never seen it!" Rooney shook his head.
Lu Ming smiled and started talking about other topics.
At noon, Rooney arranged to have a meal in the restaurant of the hotel. There were no guests in the hotel. The restaurant was empty. The dishes were very rich, a proper seafood feast, and the lobster was thicker than an arm.
Both Yu Luan and Hei Tou put on the same black uniform skirts as the female investigators, which were completely different from their childish attire.
Lu Ming smiled. Yuluan was trained by Liuli. She was really big or small. She looked as cute as a child in her pajamas and pajamas. Nowadays, her uniform skirt outlines her figure. Her face is charming, and a pair of black shoes are exposed under the skirt.
With her slender legs in stockings and black strappy high heels, she transformed into a graceful and fashionable beauty.
As for Blackhead, he is also considered to be the most beautiful among black slaves. Apart from the disadvantage of skin color, he is actually quite beautiful, very delicate and pleasant. His long eyebrow-length shawl hair is very suitable for the hairstyle of beautiful black people. It has a kind of alternative sophistication.
Moreover, she has the unique advantages of her ethnic group. Her figure is like a devil's concubine with extremely exaggerated and attractive curves. Her skin is also silky and has special elasticity. From a certain perspective, she is also a great beauty.
Rooney couldn't help but look at the two girls a few more times, but for some reason, when Yu Luan's smiling eyes glanced at him, he suddenly felt a shiver in his heart. He quickly looked away and chatted with Lu Ming about the football club.
topic.
Lu Ming only drank water, and did not touch the red wine that Rooney had opened for many years. However, Rooney poured himself a glass of wine and drank it, which made him blush.
While he was talking, Lu Ming looked at the door of the restaurant, then stood up, smiled at Rooney and said, "Excuse me!"
…
Outside the restaurant, two people stood, Han Anni and a burly female investigator.
"I heard that you have been discussing business here these days." Han Anni's pretty face looked a little helpless.
"We are also investigating the case." Lu Ming smiled. Although Annie may not believe it, she still needs to explain what needs to be explained.
"Come to our team, we need your guidance!" Han Anni said.
Nelson divided the investigation team into three teams, each responsible for a small amount.
A team is responsible for cooperating with the newly established anti-separatist task force of the Houseville police, because the slogans shouted by the three gunmen who assassinated the Prince of Housesburg were the slogans of the People's Glory Party. However, after the gangster organization collapsed, the peninsula
Some separatist organizations have emerged, and some remnants of the People's Glory Party have also joined these organizations. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that the three gunmen were actually an escalation of violence by the separatist movement.
The People's Glory Party was originally the ruling party of the peninsula elected through elections and represented the mainstream public opinion on the island. It was overthrown by the dispatch of military and police at the imperial and federal level, which itself inspired the rise of the separatist movement on the island.
The thinking logic of the residents of the peninsula is that if the peninsula becomes independent and becomes a tourist destination and no longer needs to bear federal taxes, then its wealth may not be able to catch up with the people of the East China Sea. This kind of thinking has become popular in recent years.
Therefore, Nelson personally led the team that cooperated with the local task force.
It is to prepare to explore the reasons for the assassination of Prince Haussburg from a political and ideological level.
The remaining two investigative teams continued to trace the true identities of the three gunmen.
Han Annie's team is the Donghai Five. Obviously in Nelson's eyes, if anything goes wrong with the Donghai Five, they will be grateful for solving this case. Several girls who came out of the military academy, although they seem to be the new military branch of the Donghai
, is also a police type, some kind of armed police force, but they are just rookies. They can't help much, just don't cause trouble. They are a group of five and just have fun on this scenic peninsula. If the case is solved, they will also do it.
There are records in the archives, and they are originally gold-plated.
Lu Ming, the consultant, is responsible for supporting the three teams at any time.
Therefore, Lu Ming only had time to start his own business in the past few days.
Although Nielsen should belong to someone close to Windsor's sister's circle, he solves the case for the sake of solving the case. Probably, he doesn't want to cause trouble himself. Like the Donghai Five, if he can't help, don't make trouble, just wait for the cake to be divided.
But unexpectedly, Han Anni came to find him.
Lu Ming thought for a moment. It seemed that Annie was somewhat convinced of his abilities.
Moreover, surprisingly, she did not show any disdain for herself in either her demeanor or her tone, and her words were very polite.
He has probably accepted his identity as a pervert, it is a fact, and there is nothing to be contemptuous of.
"What do you mean, let's work together as a team of six idlers? Can we show them how we are from the East China Sea?" Lu Ming said to Han Anni with a smile.
Han Anni nodded: "Yes." Then helplessly, "What kind of six-person group of idlers!"
The Western female man next to her pursed her lips and snickered.
"Oh, the eight-man group of idlers!" Lu Ming caught a glimpse of Hei Tou and Yu Luan following them from the corner of his eye.
"Are you coming?" Han Anni looked at him and said sincerely: "I know that when you come here, you definitely don't just want to do business."
"It's okay if I go to your team." Lu Ming said, "But there is a condition."
"Well, tell me." Han Anni looked very serious.
"You tell your squad leader, my eldest niece Isabel, that we should name the squad the Idle Squad, then I will join your squad!"
Han Anni immediately bit her red lips and glared at Lu Ming, "If I find a problem, I can't talk to you properly!"
Lu Ming spread his hands, "The eldest niece has been avoiding me. I haven't seen her for several days. How can we cooperate? Am I so annoying?"
"Yes!" Han Anni's answer was decisive.
The Western female man snickered again and quickly turned his head.
"Anyway, I said the conditions. If you agree, I will go. If you don't agree, I will investigate on my own. I already have clues! The clues were found from the fake fire alarm." Lu Ming said with a smile.
Han Anni snorted and thought for a while, "I know you are talking nonsense and bragging again, but I promise you."
Lu Ming smiled: "It seems that I have a very good relationship with your bestie. There is no need to discuss it with her. Well, then, I'll go say goodbye to Rooney."
