Zhai Pingqing organized her thoughts and picked up the phone to find someone for advice.
Before he could dial the phone, the nanny told him that a distinguished guest was coming. Zhai Pingqing shook his head impatiently: "I don't see anyone now."
The nanny handed him the business card. Zhai Pingqing squinted at the name on the card and suddenly stood up: "Quick, invite her in!"
Zhai Pingqing had heard of Li Changji's name a long time ago and knew that she was Li Bingxing's only daughter and the wife of Huang Youlong, the president of Mingde Oriental Medicine Group. In the past, Li Changhe was responsible for Lexing's business in Greater China. Zhai Pingqing had not heard of Li Changhe.
There is news about changes in the management of Star Group, but the business card I just saw shows that Lee Chang Hyuk’s position in the group has been replaced by his sister.
Li Changji is 1.75 meters tall, with fair complexion and an indifferent expression. She wears black professional clothes and her innate cold temperament, which makes people feel an unspeakable sense of distance.
The person who came with her was not her husband Huang Youlong, but her assistant and bodyguard Jin Shimin.
Zhai Pingqing stood up to greet him and said with a smile: "Mr. Li's visit is a shame." When he spoke, he muttered a little. I wonder if this woman understands Chinese?
Li Changji immediately dispelled Zhai Pingqing's concerns with fluent Mandarin.
"I hope Mr. Zhai doesn't mind if I take the liberty of visiting today."
Li Changji's Mandarin is even purer than that of Zhai Pingqing, who has a Guangdong and Guangxi accent. If she had not known her origin in advance, Zhai Pingqing would have thought that she was a native Chinese.
Zhai Pingqing smiled and said: "Mr. Li speaks Mandarin really well."
Li Changji shook hands with him: "I went to university in Shuimu, majoring in history, and my husband is also Chinese."
Zhai Pingqing asked her to sit down, asked her opinion and then asked the nanny to bring coffee.
The bodyguard performed his duty and always stood behind Li Changji like a javelin. Zhai Pingqing judged from this guy's behavior that he must be well-trained.
Li Changji took the coffee and said thank you.
Zhai Pingqing secretly sighed. After all, she was from a wealthy family. Every move she made was noble and at the same time polite. This woman seemed to be much younger than Huang Youlong, she must be forty years old at most. Zhai Pingqing couldn't help but think of Qin Yujiao, who was about the same age as Li Changji.
As the saying goes, comparing people to each other is a waste, and comparing goods is a waste. In terms of looks alone, Qin Yujiao should be about the same as Li Changji, but the aura of the latter is better than that of the former. If the two women appeared together, Qin Yujiao would not even be qualified to carry each other's shoes.
.
Zhai Pingqing said: "Why did Mr. Li come to see me today?"
Li Changji glanced at Zhai Pingqing and did not answer his question immediately. This short silence made Zhai Pingqing feel that the air around her suddenly cooled down a lot.
Li Changji said: "You should know why I am here."
Zhai Pingqing laughed. The cunningness of the businessman made him choose not to answer the other party's question directly: "How can I know if Mr. Li doesn't tell me?"
Li Changji said: "What are you going to do about the new hospital for infectious diseases?"
Zhai Pingqing sighed and said: "Mr. Li should be aware of the current situation. It is not only the new hospital that has been suspended, but also the China-Korea Industrial Park, which is also an investment of Lexing Group. There are unforeseen circumstances, and I don't have to
I thought I would encounter such trouble."
Li Changji said: "Mr. Zhai doesn't seem to understand what I mean. I'm asking you what to do?"
Zhai Pingqing frowned. Li Changji's strength aroused his disgust. I cooperate with you and I am not your slave. I don't know who got these bad guys. Zhai Pingqing picked up the tea cup in front of him and crossed his legs. No.
He said hurriedly: "We are already trying to clear up the relationship. Please be more patient."
Li Changji said: "What is patience? How long do you need to solve this matter?"
Zhai Pingqing said: "The city just called and asked me to attend a meeting tomorrow about the land for the construction of a new infectious disease hospital. I will not be able to determine the solution until at least the meeting is over."
Li Changji said: "Are you sure you can keep that land?"
Zhai Ping Qingxin said, didn’t you ask questions knowingly? There is a lot of fuss about the Warring States Tomb. The land for the construction of the new hospital of the Infectious Diseases Hospital happened to be designated within the scope of the cultural protection zone. Building a hospital in the cultural protection zone? Risk the world
How big is that? Don’t tell me, even Wang Jianming wouldn’t dare to do this. Just a hat of destroying national cultural heritage will make you miserable. After all, it comes from a small country and is single-minded.
Zhai Pingqing shook his head: "It can't be saved. It's not just me. The China-Korea Industrial Park also faces this problem."
Li Changji said: "If you can't complete the contract, then you'd better return all the group's investment in you."
Zhai Pingqing smiled and said: "What do you mean? All investments? Do you mean that you want me to bear all losses personally?"
Li Changji said: "This is how business is, there are losses and profits, but fortunately the losses are not big. With Kang Jian's strength, this loss is nothing."
Zhai Pingqing said: "Our contract is written in black and white. This situation is a force majeure, and it was you who took the initiative to bring me into the game. You can check with Mr. Li Changhe."
Li Changji said: "I have finished speaking. Where to go, Mr. Zhai will think about it himself."
She stood up without moving the cup of coffee. She took two steps and stopped without turning around: "I will give you seven days. If the problem cannot be solved, the money invested by the group will be returned to us intact."
Zhai Pingqing snorted coldly: "I won't give it away!"
After Li Changji got in the car, she said to Jin Shimin: "The land for the new hospital will definitely not be saved. You can make a compensation plan. If Zhai Pingqing can't come up with so much money, let him compensate with shares."
Jin Shimin nodded.
Zhai Pingqing picked up the phone and put it down. After a while, he finally calmed down and asked the driver to take him somewhere.
The late autumn night came very early. Before six o'clock, it was already dark. The driver took Zhai Pingqing all the way to the bank of Xuanqing Lake, more than 20 kilometers southeast of Dongzhou.
There are a few villas dotted sparsely on the north shore of Xuanqing Lake, one of which has lights on.
This is not Zhai Pingqing's property, and Zhai Pingqing is not here to relax. The driver stopped in front of the villa, and Zhai Pingqing rang the doorbell. Not long after, a middle-aged man came to open the door. He must be very familiar with Zhai Pingqing. After saying hello to him
Lead the way for him.
Zhai Pingqing entered the living room of the villa. A man was sitting by the fireplace with his back to him, enjoying the warmth brought to him by the fireplace.
Zhai Pingqing obviously slowed down his steps.
The other party had already noticed his arrival and whispered: "Coming?"
Zhai Pingqing said respectfully: "Senior brother."
The man slowly turned around, but it was Huang Youlong, the president of Mingde Group. Although his hair was gray, his eyes were still bright.
After Zhai Pingqing sat down, he was about to talk about Li Changji.
Huang Youlong was the first to speak: "You came here because of Chang Ji's affairs, right?"
Zhai Pingqing nodded. In fact, it was not just for Li Changji. He had encountered too many troubles recently. He regretted that he should not have chosen to cooperate with Huang Youlong in the first place.
Huang Youlong said: "I have heard about the recent events. It is indeed a bit troublesome."
Zhai Pingqing said: "If my senior brother hadn't approached me, I would not have been interested in the traditional medical industry, and you promised me..."
Huang Youlong interrupted him with a smile: "Junior brother, since I promised you, I will not go back on it."
Zhai Pingqing quietly observed Huang Youlong's expression. People say that husbands and wives follow each other, and there is no guarantee that the couple will not use one as a good person and the other as a bad person to deal with him. Zhai Pingqing has enough troubles now. When he learned that the Warring States Tomb was found near the construction site
, Zhai Pingqing did have a headache, but soon he felt like he was about to be relieved.
Although tomorrow's meeting has not yet been held, Zhai Pingqing can also predict the outcome. The project currently under construction in the infectious disease hospital will most likely be completely stopped. The city will provide some compensation and provide a new piece of land. Generally speaking, he will not be allowed to
The investor suffered a loss.
But Zhai Pingqing knew very well that Lexing Group would not easily accept this plan. Zhai Pingqing highly doubted the purpose of Lexing Group's investment in building a new hospital. Did they know from the beginning that there was a lot of mystery in this land?
Zhai Pingqing said: "My wife asked me to return all the money to Lexing within a week."
Huang Youlong pointed to the cigar box not far away, and his assistant came over to light two cigars. One of them was handed to Zhai Pingqing, and the other was given to Huang Youlong.
Huang Youlong took a puff of cigarette and said, "Junior brother, I can guarantee that I didn't know there was such a big mystery under that piece of land at the beginning."
Zhai Pingqing took a hard puff on his cigar and whispered: "I shouldn't ask this question. Did Le Xing find a way to get the land for the new hospital because he already knew that there was a tomb of the Warring States Period underneath?"
Huang Youlong laughed: "Do you think they are interested in the things in the tomb?"
"Otherwise? What do they want?"
"The Warring States Tomb may just appear by chance. There may be other secrets inside. Don't forget, my father-in-law lived in the Qingshan Mining Area when he was a child. Do you really think that he is grateful and giving back?" Huang Youlong shook his head:
"The mentality of people in this country is cold and deformed. There are very few people who know how to be grateful."
Zhai Pingqing said: "I heard that the cultural relics in the Warring States Tomb are extremely valuable. Maybe they came here just for these cultural relics."
Huang Youlong said: "No matter how greedy my father-in-law is, he will never take such a big risk. Foreigners come here to steal cultural relics? This kind of thing has basically disappeared since liberation, unless they actively seek death, and if this kind of thing is exposed,
It’s just taking the reputation of the entire Lexing Group as a bet.”
Zhai Pingqing said: "Then why do they insist on not giving in?"
Huang Youlong smiled secretly and said: "The reason they refuse to give in is because they are too confident in their own strength before it's time to give in. It's a common problem with sticks."
