Chapter 44 [Ulterior motives? ]

He Weijian took Li Wendi to the legal firm of Sun Hung Kai Company, and the contract was signed within two hours. At the same time, Li Wendi received a check for 104 million.

Before the warehouse was sold, Li Wendi paid 15 yuan to the previous owner, and there was a balance of 38 yuan. After deducting the cost of the warehouse of 53 yuan and some taxes, Li Wendi made a profit of nearly 49 yuan, with a profit margin of about 47%.

Li Wendi held the check with a look of joy on his face. At this time, he had already begun to consider the investment direction of the money... and finally decided to continue investing in real estate.

The stock market seems to be able to make a lot of money, but in fact it is just a little basic money. It is not like the bull market next year, nor is it as good as the battle for the Wharf Group in a few years, and it is not even as good as the current real estate market investment.

The next morning, Li Wendi encountered another good opportunity to sell a store under Hengyao Real Estate. The customer was willing to pay a 3% premium, so Hengyao Real Estate could earn 23% of the money, with a profit margin of %.

In fact, as long as Li Wendi was smart enough, he could make tens of thousands more dollars. However, Li Wendi was not as serious as he was about private investment. Moreover, he only held 30% of Hengyao Real Estate. Even if he earned % more, it would only be more than yuan. However, this bid met Chen Xingzhou's requirements, and the buyer was a personal investor, so Li Wendi did not want to bargain.

Li Wendi also believed that Chen Xingzhou's asset transfer could not be hidden from Chen Fenben for long. Once the incident was exposed, he would not get much money and might even lose money.

Therefore, Li Wendi will not put so much energy on Hengyao Real Estate Company, but will be very careful in private investment.

Most of the recovered funds were naturally used to repay loans and invest in shops in Causeway Bay. Li Wendi attached more importance to the plan of investing in Causeway Bay properties. After all, Causeway Bay was later known as the most expensive retail location in the world.

Although it is incomparable now, but in this era its appreciation is also considerable. Before the big crash in 74, I could earn at least 50%, not to mention doubling my money.

Of course, this investment seems suitable for Li Wendi's personal investment, but at this time Li Wendi still thinks the investment time is too long, and he needs to find some speculative projects.

After all, the second half of next year will be the time when Li Wendi will really make his efforts. Now is the stage to accumulate original funds to the best of his ability.

The business of Qiao Jiao Niang clothing store has begun to show a downward trend. One of the reasons is that many clothing stores in Tsim Sha Tsui have followed suit. The most important reason is that the types of clothing have decreased recently, and there are even overlapping styles, which has caused aesthetic fatigue.

Li Wendi has no way to solve the problem for the time being, because his business was originally plagiarized, and now there is nothing to plagiarize, so this is the only way.

Late in the evening, Li Wendi took a car back to her home in Sai Wan for dinner. As soon as she got off the car, she saw Li Xiaonan chatting with a woman. From the smile on Li Xiaonan's face, she knew that she was very happy.

Li Wendi was a little curious because Li Xiaonan seldom brought classmates and friends home, and she rarely even talked about school or friends.

Maybe it’s because there is a gap between men and women, or even between brothers and sisters.

"Brother, you're back! Guess who's here?" Seeing Li Wendi, Li Xiaonan stood up happily to greet him and hugged his arm affectionately.

"How do I know who it is?"

When that person turned around, Li Wendi's expression was slightly dazed. He had never expected that it was her.

The woman that Li Xiaonan asked Li Wendi to rescue last time—Zhang Xueqin!
Logically speaking, the relationship between the Li family and Zhang Xueqin should have ended on that day, but now this woman came to the door. No matter what the reason was, Li Wendi felt that this woman had other purposes, and they were impure.

"Mr. Li, thank you for helping me last time!" Zhang Xueqin felt a little embarrassed when Li Wendi pushed him. "I came here specially to thank you today."

Don’t hit the smiling person with your hand!
Li Wendi had no way to directly drive Zhang Xueqin away, and her reason for coming to her house was very legitimate.

"Ms. Zhang, actually this is not necessary. You've already thanked me last time." "I still feel that it's not sincere enough if you don't come to my house once." Zhang Xueqin said a little embarrassedly. She also realized that Li Wendi didn't like her to come and disturb him.

"Brother, Sister Xueqin bought a lot of things, including your favorite sugar apple..." Li Xiaonan saw her brother's attitude. He seemed to dislike Zhang Xueqin, but she didn't want to embarrass each other, so she spoke to break the deadlock.

"Have you thanked Miss Zhang?" Li Wendi touched Li Xiaonan's head, his smile full of doting.

"Thank you a long time ago." Li Xiaonan pursed his lips and took Li Wendi's hand away from his head. "Brother, Sister Xueqin is currently unemployed. Isn't our clothing factory short of people? Can you arrange for Sister Xueqin to work in the clothing factory?"

Li Xiaonan's request made Li Wendi stunned. He didn't expect Zhang Xueqin to be so scheming and persuade Li Xiaonan in such a short time. A question popped up in his mind: "What does this woman want to do?"

"Don't bother, I can find a job myself." Zhang Xueqin quickly waved his hand to refuse, as if he was a little afraid of arousing Li Wendi's disgust.

"Brother..." Li Xiaonan held Li Wendi's hand and spoke in a coquettish voice.

Li Wendi refused in her heart, but she couldn't resist Li Xiaonan's coquetry in the end, so she nodded and said, "The garment factory is indeed short of people, but the salary and benefits may not be very good. If Miss Zhang can accept it, you can go to work."

Zhang Xueqin immediately became overjoyed and said quickly, "Thank you, Mr. Li! I just came from the mainland, and it's good enough to have a job. Thank you for giving me this opportunity."

"Let Xiaonan take you to the garment factory tomorrow. Xiaonan is familiar with the people there." Li Wendi said with a cold face.

Li Wendi chatted with the two of them for a while and then returned to his room.

As it was approaching dinner time, Zhang Xueqin stayed for dinner at Li Xiaonan's persuasion.

Guo Cuiting is a good person, so she naturally would not treat Zhang Xueqin coldly. Instead, she kept kindly picking food for Zhang Xueqin and asked her to come back next time when she was free.

Due to the poor security in Hong Kong at night, Zhang Xueqin left not long after dinner.

Li Wendi looked at the woman's back as she left, and his eyes narrowed.

Li Wendi's attitude last time was very clear. He didn't want to have too much involvement with Zhang Xueqin, but Zhang Xueqin still came to him shamelessly.

Today's Hong Kong's economy is developing very well, and it is not difficult to find a job in a factory, but Zhang Xueqin did not hesitate to please Li Xiaonan and asked for the lowest level job in Hong Kong.

All this was too suspicious, and Li Wendi was making money through illegal means, so he had to be careful.

He even considered investigating Zhang Xueqin, but gave up because there was no need to make such a big fuss.

Then he turned his gaze to Li Xiaonan, considering whether or not to remind his dear sister.

"Forget it, let's wait and see!" Li Wendi shook his head and sighed.

He really didn't want Li Xiaonan to be exposed to these things too early.
