1928: The Rise of Giants

Chapter 79 Brother, don’t worry, my sister-in-law is with me

"How could that be? I was trying to avoid suspicion." Ye Luo smiled and sat next to Lin Ruxian, next to her hot and plump body, and also pulled out a cigarette.

laugh--

The kerosene lighter lit up with sparks. Lin Ruxian, guarding the flames, approached him and helped Ye Luo light the cigarette: "At that time, your eldest brother was still alive, and you dared to be dishonest to me. But now you know how to avoid suspicion?"

"Sister-in-law, I was only 14 years old at that time." Recalling the past, Ye Luo smiled lightly.

Eight years ago, he gave advice to Jing Ruishan and made his first big money in life - a total of 2 yuan.

Ye Luo, who was only 14 years old, would discuss business with Jing Ruishan in Lin Ruxian's boudoir every now and then. After he met Lin Ruxian, who had just turned 20, and became his sister, sometimes it would be too late for the business to be discussed, so he would stay at Lin Ruxian's house, like a real sister. Sleeping together like brothers.

The dishonesty that Lin Ruxian said was actually just Ye Luo's sleeping habit!

"I know, you think I'm old?" Lin Ruxian blew out a small smoke ring and looked at him with a smile, "You are 22 years old this year, and I am 28 years old, old girl."

"No way." Ye Luo smiled. During the Republic of China, women generally got married and had children earlier. The concept of 28 years old is similar to 38 years old in later generations. No wonder Lin Ruxian is worried about this, "Speaking of which, during the past six years, we wrote letters Come and go, why don’t you mention this once?”

"Want to hear the truth?" Lin Ruxian put away her smile, put out her cigarette, glanced at the small bedroom inside, stood up and walked towards there with her waist and hips as ripe as a peach, "Come in with sister."

Ye Luo also put out his cigarette, reached out and touched the gun at his waist, got up and followed her to the small bedroom.

Pushing open the door and entering, a faint scent of women's body fragrance pours into the tip of the nose.

This is clearly the boudoir where Lin Ruxian usually rests and lives. It is decorated fashionably and beautifully. There are not many furnitures, but every piece is extremely delicate and delicate. You can tell at a glance that it was expensive to build.

Next to the waiting mirror, there is a small round table, which is the altar where the Jingruishan spiritual tablet is located.

The smoke is lingering, and the faint smell of incense is intertwined with the woman's body fragrance, which smells very good.

Seeing Jing Ruishan's spiritual tablet and the black and white photo embedded in the frame, Ye Luo couldn't help but feel emotional.

After six years of separation, I never expected that the Shanghai Bund construction and entertainment tycoon who used to be on par with the Three Tycoons, Feng Jingyao and others in the French Concession would die tragically at home.

Lin Ruxian opened the wardrobe next to the altar and brought out a ceramic urn: "Brother, give your eldest brother a stick of incense."

She placed the urn in front of Jing Ruishan's black and white photo, took out a stick of incense, lit it, and bowed first: "Ruishan, brother Ye Luo is back to see you. You told me back then that one day, This boy will surpass you and become one of the top businessmen in Shanghai, but you are afraid that you will be killed before that day. I don’t believe it, and no one believes your drunk joke. I didn’t expect that it would actually make you laugh. It’s a prophecy.”

"Brother Ruishan, I'm back." Ye Luo patted his clothes and pants, tidied them up, took out a new stick of incense, lit it, and bowed three times, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you find out who poisoned you. The real murderer will not let you die in vain. No matter who the other party is, I will not let him go and let him have an easy time in Shanghai."

"You can go with peace of mind. My sister-in-law has me, so she won't suffer hardships or suffer losses."

After Ye Luo bowed, he put the incense in place and turned to look at Lin Ruxian.

"Those three old bastards from Yongxing Company have been eyeing Ruishan's property for a long time. After he passed away three years ago, I discovered that someone has been following and monitoring me. I was worried that the letter I wrote to you would be peeked at, so I never Mention it." Lin Ruxian sighed and sat on the bed, "I was also afraid of getting you into trouble. But in the past six months, they have become more and more aggressive. When I heard that you were back, I ran to find you as soon as possible. I couldn't bear it. No matter how strong she is, no matter how ruthless, no matter how skillful she is, she is still just a woman.

In this era, in Shanghai's business world, she is a rose standing on a branch, beautiful and thorny, but also coveted by others.

Lin Ruxian had already decided that if Ye Luo didn't want to take action, she would simply sell all the properties in Jing Ruishan and exchange them for Dayang to hide in the north.

"You should have told me earlier." Ye Luo didn't expect that the matter would be so serious. Lin Ruxian, who had always been as invincible as a strong woman in her heart, would show such a little daughter attitude, which shows how tight the pressure of the three tycoons was.

"I don't dare, and I don't want to. After you came back, the situation took a turn for the worse. Your Ye family had too much to take care of, and with all the mess I had done, how could you keep busy? I heard that you were assassinated three days ago, and I was in a panic. My children have all flown away, do you know that?!"

Lin Ruxian took off her high heels, raised her shiny feet, and tapped them gently on the bed. When she said this, her face was full of worry. When she looked back, she saw Ye Luo smiling broadly, as if he was not taking it seriously at all.

"Why don't we sell New World Amusement Park to them, brother?"

"I think so too. Not only New World, but also all other industries except Ruishan Construction Company, have been given to Yongxing Company." Ye Luo sat down next to Lin Ruxian, with a hint of cunning in his eyes, " Most of my eldest brother’s businesses are in the entertainment industry, so I just happened to sell them all.”

"Sell it if you want." Lin Ruxian looked a little disappointed. She reached out to hold Ye Luo's arm and quietly rested her head on his shoulder. In fact, in her heart, she hoped that Ye Luo could fight with the three Yongxing tycoons for herself and these industries. There will be a fight, but at present, it is the most cost-effective and safest to sell all these properties.

From her perspective, she didn’t know that Ye Luo had been on the committee list of the New General Chamber of Commerce, and she didn’t know whether Jinling’s attitude towards the Ye family was friendly. She only knew that the recent murder had angered the ghost guys in the concession, and they unanimously demanded Ye Luo found out the real culprit behind the scenes.

Although he won the dragon-tiger fight with Galt, Lin Ruxian didn't think that Ye Luoneng, who had just arrived, could really arm-wrestle with the three tycoons.

She asked him to come here with the intention of selling her property, making some money, and renting an apartment on Xiafei Road to accompany him.

But when she thought about the daily fear for the past three years and the shameless behavior of the three tycoons, Lin Ruxian became very angry and resentful.

"Sister-in-law, do you think I'm too timid?" Ye Luo chuckled. Lin Ruxian didn't say it out loud, but her expression clearly showed that she wanted to take it out on the three tycoons!

"I know, it's difficult for you to do this at this time, and I'm not the kind of ignorant woman." Lin Ruxian shook her head, hugged him tightly and said, "After you get the money, you can take it all, you There are people who need this money more than me.”

"Sister-in-law, are you willing to give up this much money?" Ye Luo looked at her with a smile.

Lin Ruxian rolled her eyes at him and said calmly: "It has been so many years since the New World Amusement Park was built. The equipment is old and the decoration is average. It is not as valuable as the land below. The other entertainment industries in Ruishan are nothing more than game arcades, casinos and brothels. These are all old things, and if they are all packed up, they cost only 40 to [-] yuan. It’s not like you don’t know that in this kind of industry, the most valuable thing is the subsequent income.”

"You have been my little enemy for so many years. It's only three to four million yuan. What should I be reluctant to part with? It's not like you won't pay me back." Lin Ruxian sat on the bed, pouting and curling her head.

"It's not three or four hundred thousand, it's one million oceans."

"what?!"
