Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 421 Everything Has a Price
Killing is indeed the most direct way to get rid of trouble, but killing also means there will be more trouble.

Since Chu Xiangqian knew this, he naturally wouldn't wait for trouble to come to his door.

After separating from Ichiro Matsuno, he drove directly to the racecourse in Happy Valley.

After receiving a call from Chu Xiangqian at around 8 a.m., Jockey Club executive director Bridge arrived at the racecourse in just half an hour.

However, he did not go directly to see Chu Xiangqian. Hearing the news that Jin Yabing and a dozen of his close men all died in the manor last night was too shocking and scary.

But Chu Xiangqian called him and told him to meet at the racecourse. Bridge thought about it but didn't dare to really refuse to meet.

Standing in the office of the Jockey Club Office Building, he watched his subordinates report that Chu Qianqian was jogging on a sweat horse on the track.

He hurriedly walked to the window and looked over, and sure enough he saw Chu Qianqian's figure.

Turning back to his subordinates, he asked, "How is he feeling this morning?"

The subordinate glanced at Bridge in confusion, but replied without hesitation, "It should be very good. I heard that Mr. Chu gave three stable boys a bonus of one month's salary this morning."

After finishing speaking, seeing that Bridge didn't speak, he thought for a while and then said, "Boss, I heard that a stable boy who served Mr. Chu seemed to have sold information to outsiders in private."

"Shut up." Bridge knew that his secretary was talking about the stable boy whose leg was broken the day before yesterday.

Outsiders might only think this was an accident, but Bridge was 100% sure that it was because that person sold the information to that guy Turner that Chu Xiangqian took revenge.

I used to think that Chu Xiangqian went too far. He only made a few hundred dollars by selling information, so he broke someone's leg.

Of course, Bridge was also disgusted and disgusted by people who cheated, but in his eyes, just let the police come and arrest him and sentence him to three to five months.

There is really no need to break someone's leg.

But Jin Yabing and a dozen of his men were all killed last night. I heard that Jin Yabing's manor and villa were all burned down.

After the fire station extinguished the fire, they found 14 burnt corpses from the villa whose identities were impossible to identify.

But everyone knows that there must be gold teeth in it.

In such a comparison, the twenty-five-year-old boy who had his leg broken was actually quite lucky.

As for Jin Ya Bing's incident, both the black and white parties in Hong Kong Island and Ao Zhi were frightened into cold sweats.

Chu Xiangqian just sent a message to Boss Ding of Chengzhai yesterday, saying that he was inviting him to dinner, and also issued a Jianghu order, saying that he was going to drive away Sister Juehua.

Unexpectedly, only one night passed. Chu Xiangqian not only found out that Jin Yabing and several wealthy Nanyang businessmen were behind the scenes, but also sent people over overnight to kill Jin Yabing and several of his cronies in the society.

I heard that some people in Lian Le are making noise now, saying that they want to bring people to Hong Kong Island to seek revenge on Chu Qianqian.

But in fact, no one would actually do this.

And the louder the voices shouting for revenge, the busier they are fighting for power within Lianle.

It's just that no one really cares about the position of the dragon head at this time.

Once you sit on it, you must seek revenge from Chu Qianqian.

This naughty guy might just sit on the dragon's head and tell the outside world that he wants revenge, and someone will come to the door at night and kill him too.

This is really not impossible.

Outsiders only thought that the people who killed Jin Yabing last night were the same people who killed Laihao half a year ago.

There are these fierce men who kill people like nothing, and their fighting ability is not comparable to that of the society. Even if he really kills Chu Xiangqian, he will face fierce revenge from this group of people.

Bridge stood by the window and stared for a while, then gritted his teeth, left the office, and put on his riding clothes.

Riding a sweaty horse, he appeared in front of Chu Qianqian.

Chu pulled the reins forward and rode the horse slowly to Bridge, "Morning, how did you sleep last night?"

Bridge's heart tightened, and he secretly wondered if Chu Qianqian was reminding and warning him.

He smiled and nodded, just about to say 'not bad'.

But following Chu Qianqian's half-smiling gaze, he could only sigh and say, "Chu, regarding the dog racing project, you can actually come to me to discuss a solution first."

Chu Qianqian smiled and shook his head, "If it was just a dog racing project, I would definitely not pay attention to it. This business was not my fault at the beginning.

The follow-up basically has nothing to do with me.

But some people just think that I am the best one to bully.But even so, everything can be discussed.They should never, never, should ever have their thoughts on my woman.

If I don’t take revenge this time and go back, will my wife and children face this kind of threat in the future? "

Bridge felt relieved after hearing this.

He was afraid that Chu Xiangqian did what he did last night just because he felt offended.

Killing people for this reason gives the impression that Chu Xiangqian is too crazy.

But if the plan is for his wife and children, then everything makes sense.

Not to mention, Chu Xiangqian had just brought his cousin to Hong Kong Island. If something happened to his cousin, he would probably not be able to explain it to the family elders.

Thinking of this, Bridge thought for a while and asked, "Since you came to me early in the morning, what do you need me to do?"

Chu Qianqian smiled and said, "How about recruiting a few Portuguese officials to secretly invest in the Kowloon Greyhound Racing Club?"

Bridge laughed when he heard this and gave Chu Qianqian a thumbs up, but in his heart he scolded Chu Qianqian.

Just now he said that the dog racing project had nothing to do with him, but now he started talking again and decided to rope in a few Portuguese people as shareholders to eliminate the trouble caused by last night's killing.

As for what the big pony thinks, Bridge feels that the two brothers are not only happy, but also worried.

To put it bluntly, the source of the trouble was the dog racing project the brothers were planning.

Moreover, the fact that this project was able to pass the review was indeed thanks to Chu Xiangqian using his connections to help them handle various departments.

"I'll make a call, and then we'll set sail to pick up some friends and go to the sea to chat?"

Chu nodded forward, "Then I'll have someone prepare the yacht. Do you want to find some more girls to go with you?"

Bridge shook his head hastily, "No, no, we'll talk about it after the matter is settled."

Chu nodded indifferently, got off his horse, and followed Bridge to his office.

First, he called the yacht club, then sat on the sofa and watched Bridger make a call to Oran.

After five or six phone calls, Bridge finally had a smile on his face.

He walked to the wine cabinet, turned on the radio first, and then opened a bottle of whiskey.

Chu Qianqian looked at the words Macallan 1955 on the wine bottle.

I couldn’t help but think of it as if decades later, Macallan’s rare vintage wines would appear in 007 movies and Kingsman movies.

This shows how popular this wine will be in the future.

Of course, appearing in a movie is definitely an advertisement, but for products that are inefficient and of poor quality, there is no need to even advertise.

Also, it seems that Lao Ma even went to Macallan's distillery in Scotland, and there are rumors that Lao Ma is a loyal supporter of Macallan.

Chu Xiangqian has always been interested in collecting things that can appreciate in value.

Not only can it be faked, but it can also be kept in the hands without being sold. Just the rumor that he is the largest collector of this kind of wine will bring a lot of topics and traffic in the future.Moreover, in order to maintain his strong character, McCarron will continue to actively come to his side in the future.

To a certain extent, they are their own allies.

As for buying the winery directly, Chu Xiangqian rejected the idea without even thinking about it.

After buying it, he became the opposite of everyone in the winery. The British were no less xenophobic than the Americans.

And this kind of winery, like the four major red wines, actually doesn’t make money.

What people earn is their feelings. The wine they make every year is almost equal to their expenditure. If they want to make money, they rely on the old wine they have stored in the cellar in the past.

This is destined to determine the upper limit of how much money these top luxury wineries can make.

Most likely they won't make as much as those dealers.

But if it is their client, and this client himself is a top rich man, then the Chinese people will definitely be surprised by kneeling and licking him.

After taking the glass handed over by Bridge, Chu Qianqian, who had not planned to drink a strong drink like whiskey so early in the morning, still took a small sip.

Not to mention, although Chu Xiangqian was still a little used to drinking it, the taste was indeed very special.

But to say how much I like it is nonsense.

When Bridger saw that Chu Xiangqian didn't seem to care much about this kind of whiskey, he muttered a few words in his heart, not knowing how to appreciate it.

Then he said with a smile, "There is no need to cross the sea for the time being, lest we meet at this time and be seen by others or photographed by reporters, which will cause more trouble.

The preliminary investigation results of a gang vendetta that occurred in Aosan last night should be announced soon. "

Chu Xiangqian laughed after hearing this. If it was defined as a gang vendetta, it had nothing to do with him.

Moreover, the official announcement means that the Omen police will not cause trouble for them.

Bridge took the opportunity to test, "How about you also take this opportunity to invest in the dog racing project?"

Chu Xiangqian shook his head without thinking. Although dog racing has great influence, its reputation is actually not very good.

Gui Lao didn't care, but he had to take a long-term view.

Decades later, there are many people on the Internet who come from various families.

Many established families in Hong Kong will actually have a very bad impression in the minds of the Chinese people in the future.

Those who sell flour, those who sell plasters, those who work as compradors, all are dug out for you and then criticized on the Internet.

The higher-ups actually have choices in wooing the rich in Hong Kong.

Moreover, Chu Xiangqian is planning to take the opportunity to get back the 30% shares of Oriental Daily.

Compared to these stakes, the greyhound racing program is irrelevant.

After only chatting with Bridge for half an hour, a special announcement came on the radio.

The content of the report was indeed the same as what Bridge said.

Directly defined as a gang vendetta, not the preliminary findings Bridge said.

The former is qualitative and results.

The latter has more room for maneuver, and the Portuguese may regret it at some point.

But now, if they go back on their word, it won't just be as simple as a slap in the face.

It seems that even the ghost guy recognizes his reputation for keeping his promises.

Bridge felt a little surprised after hearing this, and quickly smiled and stretched out his hand, "Congratulations."

Chu Xiangqian also laughed loudly, but said, "The Jockey Club's stake in the dog racing project this time should be more than 30%. I should congratulate you."

Bridge shrugged. Although Chu Xiangqian was talking about the Jockey Club, in fact the shareholders of the greyhound racing project were only the directors of the Jockey Club.

The Jockey Club's profits are all deposited into two funds, which means that the directors do not receive direct benefits and benefits.

But the greyhound racing project is different. Once the project starts to make a profit, the dividends will be paid directly into their company accounts registered overseas.

It is equivalent to putting money directly into your pocket, rather than being like the Jockey Club, which has the influence brought by the fame and funds held by the fund, but cannot make any money of any practical significance.

Of course, influence can also be turned into money, but no matter how you turn it into money, there are always troubles and concerns.

How can it compare to the peace of mind of putting money directly in your pocket?
After chatting with Bridge for a while, Chu Qianqian walked to the phone and called Sanjiang Shui, Lan Gang and Fei Bo.

As soon as the three people got on the phone, they asked a lot of questions.

Chu Xiangqian didn't answer, just said, "It's done" and hung up the phone.

The three of them, Lan Gang, were basically in the same mood as they listened to the busy messages on the phone.

She lamented that Chu Qianqian was still the ruthless person who would kill everyone as soon as he made a move.In my heart, I began to feel glad that I would definitely not become Chu Xiangqian's target.

After this incident was broadcast on the radio, in the minds of ordinary people, it quickly became news that they would not care about in a few days.

But in the upper class circle, Chu Xiangqian proved once again that no club boss could escape him if he wanted to.

After Chu Xiangqian and Fei Bo told Fei Bo that everything was business as usual, he was about to hang up the phone, but an idea suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Brother Bo, are you interested in taking over Lianle?"

Fei Bo was stunned for a moment, and then all kinds of thoughts came to his mind.

The predecessor of Lianle was Dongfu founded by his uncle Liu Fu. It can be said that he, the nephew of the founder, is the prince since Liu Fu has no son.

Now that Jin Yabing and several of his confidants are dead, Lian Le can be said to be nothing more than a piece of loose sand.

If there is still an internal struggle for power, there is a greater chance of being swallowed up by other associations.

Even Fei Bo realized that no matter who took the lead in Lian Le except himself, Chu Xiangqian could not be reassured.

He was worried, if he couldn't protect everything, he would kill again.

As long as you tell the people at Lianle about this guess, those middle and lower-level people who have no chance to sit in the leading position will be supported by the Custodian immediately.

Those bosses who have little hope will most likely support them as long as they are given enough benefits.

Once you master Lian Le, from now on you will be equal to both black and white.

It's just that things are not that simple.

The person who serves as the detective is still the boss of the society, which is simply giving clues to outsiders.

Otherwise, his own uncle Liu Fu would not have let Jin Yabing be the leader.

"Master Chu, this is very difficult to do."

When Chu Xiangqian heard this, he also reacted.

How can a detective still control a society?
No, it is indeed okay to control it secretly, but it is really unreasonable to be the leader.

Otherwise, Fei Bo's uncle Liu Fu would not have supported Jin Yabing to rise to power, and he would have secretly controlled Dong Fu.
