This place was arranged by Qiao Zhengguo. He was "Dong", so I was the guest. So he arranged it like this. I couldn't say anything, so I just rushed to Lu Xiaoyu, Thug, Magic and Yang Tu. They nodded and motioned for them to sit there.
Go to the empty table next to you.
I followed Qiao Zhengguo and sat at the table separated by the folk band.
After I passed by, an elderly man in his fifties who was sitting in the main seat smiled at me, and I politely returned the greeting.
Qiao Zhengguo and I sat down one after another, and Qiao Zhengguo began to introduce me: "This is Mr. Bai, everyone can just call him Mr. Bai. He is the representative sent by the higher authorities to review you this time. Can you come with me this time?"
America, it depends on what he wants."
Qiao Zhengguo was pointing at the elder in the seat.
"Assessment?" I couldn't help but be stunned. In fact, it wasn't just me, but the three big bosses from Chaohu, Dongqing and Nanhongmen were also stunned.
When we came here, we all thought we were preparing to set off with Qiao Zhengguo, but at the end of the day, we suddenly received a test, which none of us expected.
Before we could send the message, the "old man" smiled slightly and said, "Don't mind, you four. In fact, it's not a very difficult test. I'm just going to ask you a few questions, and you just need to answer me honestly."
As he said this, Mr. Bai glanced at Qiao Zhengguo. Qiao Zhengguo nodded, stood up and said to the other four tables: "Okay, let's start the banquet now."
As soon as Qiao Zhengguo's voice fell, the folk band in front of us started playing the music. I can't tell what tune it was, but it was a very fast one.
Then Qiao Zheng sat down and said to Bai Lai: "Okay, just ask me anything."
Bai Lao nodded and first looked at the person directly opposite him. I knew this person. To be precise, I had seen his photo. He was Hong Jiu from Nanhongmen.
Bai Lao looked at Hong Jiu and asked: "Hong Jiu, I know that you have been having a headache over the smuggling business in Shenzhen and Zhuhai for more than half a year, right?"
Hong Jiu was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to hide it and nodded directly.
Ever since Du Jiao and Cong B were killed by Fo Ye and I, Zhuhai and Shenzhen have fallen into chaos. Several Nanhongmen gangsters wanted to seize control of smuggling in these two places, but in the end Hong Jiu successfully held it.
, although this caused Hong Jiu a lot of losses, as long as his business foundation in this area is stabilized, in one to two years, the Hong Jiu faction in Nanhongmen will be vigorous again, and even another poisonous dragon and...
It is not difficult to be smart.
After understanding this situation, I was curious about what Mr. Bai would ask next. Four or five seconds after Hong Jiu nodded, Mr. Bai picked up his wine glass and touched it with Hong Jiu. "There is a new policy from above to strictly investigate smuggling in the Pearl River Delta."
Business, Hong Jiu, the companies you own are the key targets of this investigation."
After Bai Lao said these words, Hong Jiu stood up with an "ah" sound, and his expression suddenly became nervous.
The smuggling business is the foundation for Hong Jiu to gain a foothold in Nanhongmen. If his foundation is passive, then the status of red wine as a talker in Nanhongmen may also be shaken.
Before Hong Jiu could ask anything, Bai Lao continued: "Actually, what we are really targeting this time is not you, but a moron in the Pearl River Delta. He has gone too far and indulged you people too much. We have given
You have a way of survival, but you have affected the normal import and export order. Do you think we should investigate?"
Hong Jiu nodded and said: "Lao Bai, I will order the closure of those companies..."
Bai Lao shook his head and said: "It's too late. The moment you sat down at this table, the companies under your umbrella have already begun to be sealed up. But don't worry, you haven't been found yet. At that time, the accounts and records of your companies over the years were
All assets must be confiscated."
Hong Jiu said "Ah" and leaned back on the chair with a lonely look on his face. Without any foundation, his status in Nanhongmen would plummet.
I was watching with fear. Is Bai Dao going to deal with Nanhongmen? If this is the case, then Hong Jiu will be really unlucky this time.
Then again, Hong Jiu is unlucky, so the people here, except Qiao Zhengguo, me, the two big guys from Chaohu and Dongqing, can the three of us escape?
If they cut off Hong Jiu's foundation, will they also damage our foundation? What is my foundation? I thought about it, but I can't think of a reason why.
Hong Jiu didn't speak for a long time, and Bai Lao continued: "But Hong Jiu, as long as you can complete the task we assigned you this time, then we will find ways to help you maintain your status in Nanhongmen. You will still be Nanhongmen."
Hongmen’s words matter to everyone.”
Hong Jiu asked Bai Lao: "Then what should I do?"
Bai Lao smiled and said: "Prepare 20 billion first, you will need it when you go to the United States this time."
20 billion!? When I heard this number, I was immediately frightened. If Bai Lao took my pulse and threatened me like this, I would not be able to get enough by selling iron. Although I occupied the three provinces of Shaanxi, Shanxi and Hebei, but
Directly Bai has killed most of the gang-related businesses, and all of them have been dedicated to the Bai Dao business, and the Bai Dao business generally requires two or three years of maintenance before it can look good, so don't look at me. I look like I have a lot of money now, but I have a lot of money.
But there wasn't much money in it.
So after hearing this number, I broke out in a cold sweat.
However, Hong Jiu agreed without hesitation: "Don't worry, Mr. Bai, I'll be ready right now."
I'm confused, how rich is Hong Jiu!?
I couldn't help but think of what Shen Wen once said to me. The annual profit from Nanhongmen's smuggling business is equivalent to the annual GDP of a medium-sized city. Even if it costs a few cents, not much will fall into Hong Jiu's pocket.
After all, he has been operating in the Pearl River Delta for so many years, so it is not unusual for him to spend so much money.
What's more, he also has other underworld businesses.
This Hong Jiu is indeed very wealthy. On the whole table, I was the only one who looked a little less calm after hearing that number. Everyone else just frowned, but didn't show much concern.
Seeing that Hong Jiu agreed, Mr. Bai said: "I will arrange special financial personnel to contact you, and the money will be given to them, and they will help you spend it in the United States, so Hong Jiu, you passed the assessment."
."
Hong Jiu also wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he looked around a few times. When he saw me, he couldn't help but let out a "hum". It was obvious that he still held a grudge against me.
Then Bai Lao looked at the boss of the Chaohu Gang: "Chang Yongqu!"
The Chang family is the current helming family of the East China Green Gang. They control the Chaohu and Dongqing factions. This Chang Yongqu is the boss of the Chaohu Gang. He is also the son of the boss of the East China Youth Gang who had been to Xingzhou, and Chang Shun's distant relative.
uncle.
Chang Shun's father, the man next to Chang Yongqu, whose name is Chang Yongxi, is currently the talker of the East China Youth Gang, also known as Dong Qing.
When Chang Yongqu heard Bai Lao calling his name, he quickly said "yes" and then subconsciously stood up.
Bai Lao waved his hand and motioned Chang Yongqu to sit down, and he sat back down.
Bai Lao said: "Yongqu, Yongxi, you two are the two most outstanding among the Yong generation of your Chang family. Compared with me, you should know what I am going to say next, right?"
Chang Yongqu first nodded and said: "The share of light military industry in the Jiangsu and Anhui regions."
Then Chang Yongxi nodded and said: "The missed tariffs in Xiamen for ten years..."
Bai Lao nodded, then clapped his hands twice and said, "Sure enough, you already know that we are investigating you. For these two crimes of yours, shooting you is a minor one, right?"
Both of them spoke in very general terms. I don’t know exactly what they were. I just know that these two things also involve huge economic interests.
Hearing Bai Lao's words, Chang Yongqu and Chang Yongxi stood up in fright. Chang Yongxi said: "Bai Lao, we are willing to hand over 50% of all the military and light industry factories in Chaohu.
Shares to the state.”
Bai Lao said unceremoniously: "Ninety percent, you shouldn't have done those shares in the first place. As for the person who gave you the shares, don't worry, he has already taken control."
Chang Yongqu had no choice but to nod and say: "Everything is based on what Bai Lao said."
Chang Yongxi said: "Lao Bai, I have 22 large and small ocean-going companies in Fujian and Zhejiang. They are willing to make up for the tariffs on all goods imported and exported through Xiamen Port in the past ten years."
Bai Lai smiled and said: "Add interest, according to the current loan interest rate of the central bank."
Chang Yongxi also nodded helplessly.
The money these two people "cheated" from Bai Lao was probably no less than that of Hong Jiu from Nanhongmen.
After talking about the two people from the Chang family, Mr. Bai said: "Okay, you two have passed the assessment. I will give you a week to do everything you need to do. Don't play any tricks, otherwise you will know the consequences."
Both men nodded in unison.
Finally, Mr. Bai turned his attention to me, and I was so frightened that I trembled all over. I couldn't help but subconsciously said: "Old Bai, I'm not as wealthy as the three seniors. If you ask me for money, I definitely don't have it. It's a big deal."
Hand over all shares of Oko Seiko."
Bai Lao nodded and said, "Well, this is a good idea. You said this, I didn't force you."
Well, I immediately regretted it. Didn't this old man mean to blackmail me?
That's right, my business has not done anything serious that violates laws and disciplines. It cannot be compared with Chaohu, Dongqing and Nanhongmen.
As soon as I thought of this, I heard Mr. Bai say: "Yifeng, the foundation of the three of them is money and business, but yours is not. Your foundation is your brothers, so I will use them to negotiate business with you."
Hearing Bai Lao's words, I couldn't help but "pop" in my heart, and the expression on my face suddenly dropped. This is indeed my foundation, and it is also my weakness. I, Yifeng, do not allow anyone to touch my brother.
