Chapter 888: The Magical Nine-curved Bead



When he first came to Hotel Lisboa and when he left Hotel Lisboa, Liu Dong's treatment was completely different!

When he came, no one knew him, and even if he wanted to gamble, he could only go to the midfield. But by the time Liu Dong swept away Ma Yunfei and Li Mingchang and left with a huge profit of 1 billion in gambling money, he had become a star figure in all the casinos in Macau.

Even the reputation is spreading rapidly to the nearest places such as Hong Kong, Taiwan, and even further afield such as Southeast Asia.

And this time Liu Dong didn’t need to take a car, he was directly taken to the Peninsula Hotel by the Lisboa Casino’s helicopter!

Compared with the improvement in salary, Liu Dong feels a little distressed when holding a bank card!

Gein, Macau's entertainment tax is so harsh. A quarter of the money he won from Ma Yunfei and Li Mingchang was used to pay entertainment tax!

But no matter how distressed you are, you have to pay it forward. Why do you call this the country?

And the money was originally a windfall!

However, compared to the taxes paid, what made Liu Dong even more disappointed was the obviously distant attitude of Fu Kun, Zhao Lei and Zhong Liangtao. Compared with Peng Yuan who came over to him after the gambling game and kept chattering in his ear, Fu

Although Kun and the others are still enthusiastic, Liu Dong can clearly feel the sense of distance in their enthusiasm. It is obvious that he is no longer accepted by this circle!

Although the three of them did not do this intentionally, their completely subconscious actions gave Liu Dong this feeling!

Although Liu Dong had been prepared before, when this situation actually came, he still felt a little uncomfortable.

But there is nothing he can do to change this situation. Unless he gives up everything and returns to poverty, obviously this is impossible!



After returning to the hotel and sending Peng Yuan away, Liu Dong sat on the sofa in the living room for a while. Then he picked up the longevity lock he won from Ma Yunfei!

In addition to the money, stocks, and real estate won from Ma Yunfei and Li Mingchang, the biggest gain is the longevity lock in Liu Dong's hands!

After holding the longevity lock in his hand and turning it over briefly, Liu Dong's right hand flicked over the lock. When he opened his palm again, a silver-white longan bead had suddenly escaped from the lock and appeared.

In his hands.

Looking at this silver-white bead, Liu Dong couldn't help but show joy in his eyes.

He also didn't expect that there was such a treasure hidden in Ma Yunfei's body. Under the light of the relic, the rich yellow aura on it was no less intense than the 'Qijian' and 'Yaochi Holy Land' Yushan that Liu Dong had just acquired not long ago!

However, this bead has never been discovered, mainly because it was disguised and a layer of 'thousand-year glue' was painted on its shell!

This glue originated in the Han Dynasty and is made from a mixture of puffer fish glue, donkey glue and natural glue. In ancient times, it has been used to make weapons, wooden poles and battleship decks. It has very good adhesion and anti-corrosion effects and has been used since the Han Dynasty.

Until now, when "Tiangong Kaiwu" annotated it, the name Millennium Glue has gained more and more recognition and has been gradually used!

It is not difficult to remove this glue. You can just use sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid to wash it, or directly burn it with fire. However, considering that it contains priceless jewelry, Liu Dong chose the more convenient and faster relic element.

Light to repair.

In less than two seconds, a bead the size of a dragon's eye, completely transparent like glass, appeared in Liu Dong's hand.

The beads are pure and transparent, but there are seven pinnose-sized round holes scattered on the surface like the Big Dipper!

When Liu Dong pointed the seven round holes at the light, the round holes immediately turned into seven small light-focusing points, and then seven foggy orchid-like yellow light strips began to wind up inside the pure pearl!

Although the seven light strips did not go in a straight line, they did not intersect with each other. Then after turning the ninth corner, the seven light strips stopped one after another!

Then Liu Dong shook the beads up and down. The seven yellow ribbons in the beads also swayed with his shaking, as if there was a real world in this small pearl, which was quite a bit like the Buddhist saying, "One flower, one world."

The Zen spirit of "Jiezi Na Sumeru"!

However, through this verification, Liu Dong also confirmed his guess that this bead was the "Nine-curved Bead", a peerless treasure that once appeared briefly in the Han Dynasty and then disappeared in the long history!

Nine-curved beads are also called colorful beads!

Of course, this orb has nothing to do with the 'Orb Wearing Ants', and it has nothing to do with the allusions related to Confucius! The key to the reason why Liu Dong knows so much about this orb is that the Jiuqu Bead was once an accessory on the Red Sky Sword according to records!

Liu Bang once used it to kill the white snake and compete in the world. At that time, the Jiuqu Pearl was as famous as the He's Bi. However, this pearl was only short-lived. In addition, unlike the He's Bi, it did not have the whitewash of the imperial power of the past dynasties, and in the Han Dynasty

No one has ever seen it again! So it is far less famous than Heshibi!

Later generations thought that after Liu Bang died, he took this magical orb to be buried with him. Later, the time gap was too far, and the history books described this bead as so magical that people began to doubt its existence! So there are many things about this orb.

There are fewer and fewer records.

If Liu Dong hadn't owned the Scarlet Sky Sword and had consulted all the information about the Scarlet Sky Sword and famous ancient swords, he probably wouldn't have understood the origin of this orb!

"It would be great if it was daytime!" Liu Dong couldn't help but thought to himself.

Legend has it that the nine-curved bead has seven colors in the sunlight. The ancients were very skeptical about this, but Liu Dong knew that the sunlight did have seven colors! It was just that how these seven colors appeared on this colorful bead, Liu Dong was not clear for the time being!

"Ding dong!"

When he heard the doorbell ringing, Liu Dong put away the Jiuquzhu with his backhand, and then said loudly: "Come in, the door is unlocked!"

Soon, Zhang Fan in a suit and leather shoes quickly opened the door and walked in!

"Chairman...!"

Seeing the excitement on the other person's face, Liu Dong smiled and said, "I know everything!"

"yes!"

Zhang Fan nodded vigorously and looked at Liu Dong with admiration. His little boss's ability to make money was really strong. He had only been in Hong Kong for a few days and had obtained nearly 1 billion U.S. dollars, which was faster than robbing a bank!

"Come, sit down and talk!"

After waving to Zhang Fan to sit down, Liu Dong asked: "How are you busy with the acquisition of Chong Hing Bank?"

"I was about to tell you, Director Liu, about this. Now that the Liao family has acquired all the shares of Chong Hing Bank, we can privatize Chong Hing Bank at any time and then delist it!"

After nodding with satisfaction, Liu Dong said: "It's done well, but don't be anxious about delisting. It's not yet time!"

"Yes, Director Liu!"

"By the way, have you asked clearly what I asked you to ask?"

"I've already asked, but the Qiu family said that Mr. Qiu Deba is not in good health and doesn't see outsiders!" Zhang Fan said quickly.

Of course Liu Dong knew that Qiu Deba was not in good health, otherwise he wouldn't have come to visit him!

"When you go back later, contact the Qiu family and tell them that I can cure Mr. Qiu's disease!"

Hearing this, Zhang Fan glanced at Liu Dong in surprise, but he didn't think Liu Dong was talking about him. Maybe he, the little boss, knew some famous doctor!

"Yes, I understand!"

"Well, there are also these transfer documents. Please help me deal with them. Except for keeping this villa in Repulse Bay, all others will be sold!"

From Ma Yunfei and Li Mingchang, Liu Dong won 4 villas in Peninsula and Repulse Bay, and 5 other apartments! There were even more sports cars and yachts left, and Liu Dong really couldn't use so many things.

, just leave the biggest and best villa as your residence when you come to Hong Kong, and sell the rest for investment!

Although a mortgage bank loan is also a good choice, it costs tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars at most, and Liu Dong is really too lazy to waste energy on such trivial matters!

After taking the documents in Liu Dong's hand and looking at them for a few times, Zhang Fan put them away. It was very easy to deal with these properties and luxury cars!

"Lao Zhang, do you understand Cathay Pacific Airways?" Liu Dong pondered for a moment and then asked.

"Cathay? Of course I understand!"

Zhang Fan has been in Hong Kong for more than a day or two, and he naturally knows the famous blue-chip stocks on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange!

"Tell me about this company!" Liu Dong said.

"yes!"

After nodding his head and recalling the information about Cathay Pacific in his mind, Zhang Fan said slowly: "Cathay Pacific is the first airline to provide civil aviation services in Hong Kong. It is a member of the Swire Group and one of the founding members of Oneworld.

, a large private air transport group with Hong Kong International Airport as its hub and radiating around the world! It owns more than 80 passenger aircraft and more than 20 cargo aircraft, with a total market value of close to HK$50 billion! However, due to the recent relationship with the epidemic, passenger traffic has dropped sharply, and the company

The stock price has dropped by nearly half! And because the strike issue has not been resolved, at least half of Cathay Pacific’s routes are now grounded! This is another major factor causing the current decline in Cathay Pacific’s stock price!”

"Then do you think this airline has a future?" Liu Dong asked.

"Of course! As long as Hong Kong's economy does not suffer a major decline, Cathay Pacific's future will be bright! And with the development of our domestic economy, the connection between Hong Kong and the mainland will only become closer and closer, and the pair that dominates Hong Kong

For Cathay Pacific, it is a natural and close emerging market! As long as it can enter the mainland, Cathay Pacific's value will increase several times in the shortest time! However, Cathay Pacific also faces many difficulties if it wants to swallow the mainland market!

"

"Tell me about it? What are the difficulties?" Liu Dong said with interest.

"First of all, Cathay Pacific is a private company, and the mainland's aviation market has not yet been opened to the private sector. Secondly, Cathay Pacific is a foreign-controlled company. Judging from the state's support for Dragonair to break Cathay Pacific's dominance of Hong Kong, unless Cathay Pacific

Further improve the shareholding structure and increase the proportion of Chinese capital, otherwise it will be difficult for them to enter the mainland market! These two points are the main difficulties Cathay Pacific faces, and the remaining issues such as funds, venues, and personnel training are relatively easier to solve!"
