.........But after retrieving Ma Chao, Mr. Ma also discovered that his grandson was just an out-and-out, ordinary country boy with no ideals or pursuits. What he wanted to do most was to leave the countryside and find a job in a big city.
Beautiful wife, and then settle down.
Mr. Ma, who originally planned to pass on his skills to Ma Chao, saw that Ma Chao had missed the best age for learning and it was no longer possible to inherit the special skills of stealing. He completely gave up the idea of training his grandson and instead brought Ma Chao with him.
Then he came to the island city and settled down.
However, you can't pass on the stolen items to your grandson. What Mr. Ma is quite good at is his ability to identify treasures. After all, to steal a treasure, you must first identify the treasure.
So I used the money I had on hand to open the Jiguge antique store in Daocheng. Of course, why it was in Daocheng and not Panjiayuan in the capital? Mr. Ma didn't write it in his diary, and Liu Dong didn't know very well. But according to Liu
Dong guessed that Mr. Ma was originally from Daocheng. He was nostalgic as he got older and just wanted to return to his roots.
With the Jiguge antique shop, the grandfather and grandson settled down in this island city. However, it was Ma Chao's first time entering the city. Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden and saw everything new. Bars, karaoke bars and other entertainment venues were
It has become a frequent place, especially Caesar's Bar, where Ma Chao is a frequent visitor.
When the people from the Sihai Gang saw that Ma Chao was generous every time, they naturally focused on him. They tried every means to drag him into the casino and made him addicted to gambling. At the beginning, Ma Chao was still able to restrain himself.
I lost thousands of dollars each time. But soon my gambling addiction became more and more serious, and I lost more and more money. From thousands to tens of thousands, and finally to millions. I refused to change despite repeated admonitions. I always lost money.
He was almost furious, but he was just such a grandson, and Mr. Ma couldn't really do anything to Ma Chao.
In desperation, he had no choice but to sell all the property he had stolen during his half-life abroad. Most of the money and part of the treasure was deposited in Swiss banks, and the remaining small part was brought back to China.
Originally, he hoped that after Ma Chao became addicted to gambling, he would be able to return to his lost ways and inherit Jiguge's down-to-earth life. Then he would pass on to him the property he had stored in the Swiss bank bit by bit.
Unexpectedly, after Ma Chao got the money from his grandfather, he actually intensified his efforts and lost more. Not only did he lose all the money that Mr. Ma brought back, but he also mortgaged most of the antiques that Mr. Ma had accumulated from opening an antique shop.
In the end, he owed five to six million yuan in gambling debts, and was attacked by members of the Sihai Gang. The angry Mr. Ma relapsed and ended up in the hospital.
Knowing that his time was running out, Mr. Ma packed his diary, Swiss bank passbook, and rented safe key into a small wooden box. He placed them in the living room on the second floor of Jiguge Pavilion, where he placed his morning gifts.
In the mezzanine of the shrine where the deceased boss, son and daughter-in-law were placed. He also specifically asked Ma Chao to put the place in the shrine after his death, clean it from time to time, and make offerings to it frequently.
As long as Ma Chao keeps his words in mind and has some respect for his family as a grandfather, then as long as he often cleans the shrine dedicated to the rank, he will naturally find the wood that Mr. Ma placed in the mezzanine of the shrine under the rank.
If you buy a box, you can get all Mr. Ma’s half-life savings.
However, Mr. Ma really made a miscalculation. Ma Chao had no affection at all for his parents and grandma, whom he had not met since childhood. Even his grandfather, who had lived with him for three years, did not have a deep relationship. In addition,
He liked gambling, so after cremating and burying the body of Mr. Ma, he used Jiguge Pavilion as a place to sleep and temporarily live, but he didn't regard it as a home at all. As for the shrine dedicated to ranking, since the death of the old man, Ma Chao
Never looked at it again.
Except for the occasional passing by when I was going to get the antiques in the safe, this arranged shrine had the same status in Ma Chao's heart as the table and sofa next to it.
Therefore, in the six months between the death of Mr. Ma and the time Liu Dong came to Jigu Pavilion, Ma Chao had no idea that his cheap grandfather who had become a monk halfway had actually left him a sum of money, enough for him for several lifetimes.
Huge wealth spent.
He closed the thick notebook and looked at the passbook in his hand. Of course, Liu Dong didn't recognize the words on it and couldn't tell how much money he had deposited. Then he added a key. That was all Mr. Ma left for Ma Chao.
Wealth.
In the beginning, it was because of these three things that he insisted on buying Jigugu Pavilion.
"Mr. Ma, since I have obtained the wealth you have accumulated for half your life, let me fulfill your last wish!" Thinking of the countless times he wrote at the end of the diary that he hoped Ma Chao would quit gambling and start a family and live a good life, Liu Dong decided to help
Mr. Ma makes it happen.
…
On the fourth day after Liu Dong obtained the property rights certificate of Jiguge, he personally put Mu Gang and Ma Chao on the plane to Quancheng.
He only had one task for Mu Gang, to train Ma Chao well and teach him kung fu. Although he started late and would not be able to reach the current level of Liu Dong and Mu Gang, he should not be able to deal with six or seven strong men in the future.
question.
Of course, Ma Chao's pitiful expression was automatically filtered by Liu Dong.
After the two of them left, Liu Dong put away the cash in the bank and handed over the decoration of Jigugu Pavilion to the decoration company. Then he bought a direct flight from the island city to Wuhan! Before sending Mu Gang off
The next day, Liu Dong also flew away! The affairs in the island city came to an end for the time being.
"Brother, that Liu Dong has already left by plane, and his destination is Wuhan!"
After listening to Ma Youde's words, Wei Fei nodded silently.
After these days of investigation, he had a relatively clear understanding of Liu Dong's origins. But he didn't expect that this person was so powerful. Not only did he have a rich background, but he was also rich.
Now, Wei Fei is very glad that he did not act recklessly, otherwise if Liu Dong was touched, his Sihai Gang's foundation would be uprooted.
"The wealthy Li family has Jiang Weiguo, secretary of the Quancheng City Party Committee, and Zhao Defa, chairman of the Huatai Group. Moreover, he is also the 'Emerald King', a master of antique appraisal, director of the Quancheng Stone Gambling Association, and a member of the Quancheng Collectors Association. He is worth billions! Such things
Once social status dies, what a sensation it will cause!" Wei Fei thought to himself.
Of course, not much is known about the news that Liu Dong is the chairman of Dongchao Group because the time is too short. As for the cooperation with Xie Zhonglin in the Fuxing Stone Gambling Company and the cooperation with Zhou Bin and Wang Cheng in the establishment of Hengyuan Real Estate, all that is known is
Even less. Now people know more about the Agarwood Pavilion in Liu Dong’s hands.
An entrance examination of the Quancheng Collection Association not only made Liu Dong famous, but also brought the Chenxiang Pavilion inherited by Liu Dong into people's sight.
"Old horse!"
"Brother, what are your orders?" Ma Youde said quickly.
"In the future, let your brothers stay away from Jiguge Pavilion, and no one should provoke Liu Dong again, understand?" Wei Fei said with a slightly serious tone.
"I know, brother!" He also knew Liu Dong's details, and he was responsible for investigating this matter. Therefore, he agreed with Wei Fei's decision. With Liu Dong's background, he has many friends, and
It is of no benefit to the Sihai Gang to make enemies of people who are themselves extraordinary in strength.
"Brother, if the Yamaguchi group comes here...?" Ma Youde said hesitantly.
"Tell me what you know. Even if we don't tell it, so many people in the gang have seen it. We can't hide it! Besides, we still want to make money. Without the Yamaguchi group, we have to find someone else.
It will consume a lot of our time and energy!" After a pause, Wei Fei raised his head and said with a hint of confidence: "Liu Dong will not make us afraid to that extent!"
Although Liu Dong has a strong background and is not easy to mess with, his Sihai Gang has been able to develop steadily in the island city, and to this day, its official power cannot be underestimated.
But they belong to the gang, unlike Liu Dong, who is a white-faced person. Otherwise, Wei Fei wouldn't be so scrupulous.
"By the way, when the Yamaguchi group inquired about the news, they also told them Liu Dong's background. I believe that knowing this, the guys in the Yamaguchi group will also be wary and not go too far! After all, China is still the Chinese people.
After all, when the Japanese come here, even dragons have to be coiled up. What’s more, they are just long worms!" Wei Fei said arrogantly.
"I understand, brother!"
"Okay, let's get down!"
…
Liu Dong naturally didn't know that now Wei Fei's Sihai Gang knew his details and changed their strategy and no longer conflict with him.
Of course, even if he knew, Liu Dong wouldn't care too much. Wei Fei's Sihai Gang is not the Japanese Yamaguchi Group. His roots are in China. Unless he doesn't want to continue to hang out, otherwise he will not touch him. Liu Dong
I know it in my heart.
He got on the plane from Daocheng at noon and arrived in Wuhan in the afternoon. After Liu Dong got off the plane, he took a car straight to the long-distance bus station without taking any rest. After waiting for about an hour, he got on the Wuhan-Han train.
Long-distance bus to Jingzhou City, Hubei Province.
Jingzhou was called Jiangling in ancient times. It was the location of the capital of the Chu State during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Just like the tombs of most emperors and princes were buried not far from the capital or their residences, the tombs of most of the kings of the Chu State were also in Jiangling, which is now Jingzhou.
Next to -zhou, especially the Xiongjiazhong Tomb of King Chu that has now begun to be partially excavated, its grand scale, together with the main tomb, auxiliary tombs, chariot and horse pits, burial pits, and sacrificial pits, is compared to the famous Zenghou
Tomb B is several times bigger.
However, due to the state's clause that prohibits active excavation of imperial mausoleums due to technical conditions, the main tomb of the Xiong Family Tomb is still sealed underground. Of course, many people speculate that this is the site of King Zhuang because of the rich burial objects and the grand scale of the construction.
But Liu Dong, who got Uncle Li’s notes in the capital, understood that it was not. (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
