Volume 4, Chapter 19: Extermination (1)
Walking into Ou Pei Linying's office, it was very lively. John Lin and Roll Louis were talking to Ou Pei Linying. Their urgent Cantonese words were mixed with English words from time to time. Lu Li couldn't understand them at all. When he turned his eyes, he saw Ou Chenli and nodded to her, saying hello.
Ou Chenli was a little fatter than when she saw Lu Li last time. When she saw Lu Li, her face turned red and she lowered her head, "Mr. Lu, it's been a long time since we saw him."
"Hello, why are you going to have a break today?"
"No, I feel a little uncomfortable. I asked Jason for leave temporarily." Ou Chenli said softly: "Yes, I passed by your store a few days ago and saw that there were many people at the door. Have you... been offended by someone you shouldn't have been offended?"
Luli nodded helplessly, "This is all things in the past, and it's all solved now."
"Oh, I'll introduce you to a friend, Simon?" Ou Chenli waved, and a man came over. He was about thirty years old and was full of energy. But in Luli's opinion, this person's movements were a bit feminine. He walked to Ou Chenli for a few steps and stood side by side with her. "This is Mr. Zuo Yugang and my boyfriend. Simon, this is Mr. Luli I have told you."
Lu Li felt a little confused for no reason, and she smiled bitterly and shook hands with the other party, "Hello."
"Hello." Zuo Yugang's voice was very small. If he hadn't listened carefully, he wouldn't have heard clearly what he was saying. "I've heard about you frequently for a long time, haha."
Ou Chenli whispered a few words to him, Zuo Yugang smiled at Luli and turned to the side. "He... is your boyfriend? By the way, I remembered it. He is..."
Ou Chenli nodded generously, "Yes, just like the rumors in the market, but this is his personal sexual orientation and it is hard for others to argue with, right?"
What else could Lu Li say? He nodded helplessly, "Congratulations. Finally, he found the Ruyi Man."
"I have no more ways, my mother told me several times that a girl's youth is precious and I can't afford to waste, so I can only find a rich husband as soon as possible." Ou Chenli closed her short hair that slipped down her ear and smiled: "Also, Mr. Zuo Fa's Dafa Bank and our Ou Crane are also developers with many years of cooperative relationships, and Simon is also my alumni, because of this relationship..."
"Okay. I understand." Luli waved his hand and shook his head and said, "So, when will you drink your wedding wine?"
Ou Chenli's beautiful red lips pursed tightly, and looked at him maliciously, "Why, do you really want me to get married quickly?"
"Hey? Why are you talking like that? You are all talking about it, and then I'm following you now? Are you going to get angry with me too?"
"I don't care about you!" Ou Chenli raised her thick eyebrows, as if she had become a young lady again, and she turned around and walked away to Zuo Yugang.
Lu Li was like a monk who was confused. Just as Ou Pei Linying had finished her argument with her subordinates and colleagues, the secretary lady invited Ou Zihao and Lu Li to her office; the woman looked tired and sat in the swivel chair and was resting. "Are you worried about Mr. Jeremy's case?"
"Yes." Seeing the two people entering the door, Ou Peilinying adjusted her sitting posture and sighed helplessly, "The prosecution has sufficient evidence. There is no need to continue such a case. I have asked Mr. Sun to admit the charge of manslaughter twice, but he always insists on being innocent. Such a stubborn person was only seen in Mr. Lu back then. Sorry, Mr. Lu, I didn't deliberately use you as an analogy."
Luli didn't understand such legal things at all. He smiled and didn't say anything. Instead, Ou Zihao asked strangely: "Then, based on your knowledge, is he guilty?"
"From the lawyer's perspective, of course, I don't believe that my client is guilty, but from the perspective of an ordinary person, I have to think so." Ou Peilinying sighed, closed the file and put it aside, "Why will I come here today?"
"It's nothing. I saw Mr. Lu in Causeway Bay just now. I happened to come to see you, so I got with him." Ou Zihao turned his avatar at the door and asked with a funny look: "Is he really dating with Simon now?"
This is another thing that Ou Pei Linying is very troubled. Although she has received a profound education, her thinking style is still a traditional Chinese. Who is her daughter who can’t get along with, so she has to find a homosexual? In the early 1980s, such people were summarized into the category of mentally ill patients in some countries and regions. Her daughter has an outstanding family background and is even more beautiful, but she found such a man, how could it be!
She did not answer her brother-in-law's question, and nodded to Luli with a smile, "Sorry, Mr. Lu, I have neglected you. I heard frequently that your hot pot restaurant has encountered some problems recently. Is there any place to need my help?"
"No, I don't need it for the time being, I can still deal with it with my strength."
"Yes, how did it go when I talked to Mr. Lu about the import of meat products that I talked about in my sister-in-law's restaurant last time?"
"This matter is not worth mentioning."
Ou Zihao showed a look of 'I already knew it' and nodded, "Did it come from other merchants..."
"No, Mr. Ou, it's not like that. I'm mainly engaged in vegetable import business. To be honest, you and Mrs. Ou said that it's going well, and the monthly transportation volume is about three to four thousand tons."
The uncle and sister-in-law were stunned. They unconsciously thought they had heard it wrong, "Mr. Lu, are you talking about thirty or forty tons?"
"No, it's really three or four thousand tons. In fact, if it weren't for some obstacles a while ago, such numbers would have increased significantly... In the future, there will always be such a day."
"You mean, there are three or four thousand tons of vegetables you transport from the mainland every month? Is this kind of thing so easy to make money?"
"As long as the relationship is clear, it's just some numbers. Why do you... look at me like this?"
"Then, Mr. Lu, can we ask where your vegetables are sold?"
"I just serve as a middleman to send it to other secondary distributors. They will send it to the next level sellers. Because there are many people operating, the share that each person has officially fallen into hands is limited. Speaking of which, you may not believe that such a large number will actually be too small when allocating specific numbers."
This was something Ou Zihao didn't expect. He stared at Lu Li in a daze. He didn't say anything for a long time, "Then, what about now?"
"Now, on the one hand, I am preparing to continue this kind of business, and on the other hand, I am planning to open a hot pot restaurant branch in a more bustling and lively area. Of course, I am still in the site selection stage, and I have asked Allen to do such a thing."
Ou Zihao smiled bitterly and nodded and said, "I really didn't expect that Mr. Lu's business has begun to grow to open a branch. He is such a hero who has become a teenager!"
After talking politely with Ou’s uncle and sister-in-law, Lu Li stood up and said goodbye. He stood alone in front of the elevator door, waiting to go down the elevator. Behind him, the sound of Ou Chenli and Zuo Yugang teasing came. For some reason, Lu Li suddenly felt irritable. He simply didn’t even wait for the elevator and walked downstairs alone!
Watching him hurry downstairs, the two people who seemed to be flirting at the door of the elevator suddenly separated, and a man said in a whispering voice: "Frequently,... do you think this will work?"
Ou Chenli showed a smile that was even worse than crying, secretly glanced at her mother who was chatting with her uncle in the office, and sighed and said, "Do you think I am trying to pursue what effect?"
"I know it's not," Zuo Yugang said, "but, I want to tell you that there are many doctors in many places now that can help you solve the problems you are facing now. If you want, I can even arrange it for you."
Ou Chenli glanced at him alertly, then lowered her head weakly, "Simon, I know that letting you eat such a dead cat is unfair to you. If you don't want to, I will never force you."
"I'm not... You know that I don't mean that. You helped me before, but now I should help you. You... Don't get me wrong about me being just fulfilling my friend's obligations. It's not like that. I'm really willing to help you eat this dead cat."
Ou Chenli burst out laughing, raised her bright face and looked at the other person, "Simon, thank you. If it weren't for me and you who couldn't get together for one reason or another, you might really be my first choice."
Zuo Yugang nodded understandingly, "Then, are you really going to do this? Are you not afraid that Aunt will get angry?"
"I'm not afraid, since I make a decision, I won't change it! But you, because of me, I'm worried that Uncle will force you to marry you in the future. After all, now everyone knows that you are in a state of water and land."
Zuo Yugang laughed loudly!
***************************************************
Luli drove the shabby Volga back to the hotpot restaurant. Song Hu was sitting there. When he saw him entering the door, he jumped up like an antelope that was so fat that he was out of the circle. "Li Ji, let's start tomorrow, right? You can't expect that I'll let those people get to death! I have to answer a hundred or dozens of calls a day, just asking me when will the fresh mainland vegetables be shipped?"
"I'm still thinking about this."
"You think about it! What do you always think if you don't make money?" Song Hu said carelessly: "No wonder people say that no matter who they cooperate with, they should not cooperate with mainlanders..."
Lu Li frowned and looked at Song Hu blankly. The latter swallowed the following words back under his gaze. "I mean, if you have such a relationship, I have enough appetite, and the business has begun to be on track again, why not continue?"
"Do you think I don't want it? If a bastard like Fang Ba, if he comes to mess with me again when this matter is over, what do you say?"
"No problem, I'm going to cover it all with me Song Hu." Song Hu patted his chest and said with a big bag: "I, Song Hu, always have some face in Ping'an Society. This matter can be solved with just one word."
"From your words? Since you are so sure, why didn't you come forward to help solve the problem when Fang Ba sent someone to trouble me?"
Song Hu asked him a little and said, "Uh... Li Ji, you have to know that the person he sent out was not my younger brother last time. Besides, I think he did this to cooperate with you and transport more vegetables in the future, so that we can make more money, right?"
Lu Li was so angry that he almost wanted to kick him, "Song Hu, I will tell you last. The business was found by Lu Li, and I maintained the relationship. Who to cooperate with and how to cooperate, it is not your turn to think about it for me! Just transport your food honestly and make money. You should avoid other matters! If you don't want to, you can leave now!"
Song Hu's eyes were rumbling and finally took a step back dejectedly, "Take it down, I'll listen to you. I won't talk much about this anymore, can't it be okay?"
"Also, before Fang Ba's matter is completely resolved, the vegetable transportation matter is suspended. I have to make sure he won't make trouble again! Then start transportation."
"Li Ji, how can this work? If this delays, how much will we have to pay?"
"I'm not afraid of how much money you can lose. What are you afraid of?" Luli said: "You can help me plan now, how can you ensure that Fang Ba will no longer cause trouble with us? Only when this matter is implemented can we continue to do business."
Song Hu thought about it and realized it, and a chill suddenly rose in his heart: I didn't expect that Lu Li was so cruel? The meaning of his words was very clear, that was to attack and completely deal with Fang Ba! "Then, that..."
"What are you and me? Let me tell you, Song Hu, Fang Ba's matter cannot be solved, so don't try to transport a vegetable hair from Pengcheng."
Song Hu thought for a while and he was really determined to leave, but he couldn't bear to invest more than 100,000 yuan a day, "Then, how do you want to solve it completely?"
"Nonsense, I'm not a person in your circle, and I don't know the rules of you. In short, you can find a way to do this."
Song Hu thought for a long time, and his expression gradually turned into a ferocious look, "Then, let's do it, Li Ji, we will officially start transportation tomorrow, but I promise you that within a week, Fang Ba will return to Taiwan and will not appear in Hong Kong again in the future. What about?"
"Don't do this with me. Since you said that there is nothing you can't wait for in a week? Just as you said, after a week, he will leave Hong Kong and we will start the official transportation."
Song Hu really didn't expect Lu Li to be so soft and hard in this matter. He was so angry that he wanted to curse, "Li Ji, Eighth Master... Why did he offend you? Do you want to target him like this?"
