Shentu Tianyin seemed to be using herself as a teaching material to teach Xia Lei a lesson on capital plunder.
In China, it is extremely difficult for those who do business honestly to become big. The reason why many billionaires have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain in the more than thirty years of reform and opening up is that how many of them have grown in business by relying on their own true abilities? Very few. Capital expansion is actually about eating others to make yourself stronger. This process is full of blood.
The lesson Shentu Tianyin taught Xia Lei was simple, but vivid enough.
Gu Kewu had previously worked hard to obtain her body and the Shentu family's Vientiane Group, but now Shentu Tianyin was trying to rob his previous assets with great fanfare. This felt like a vicious irony to Gu Kewu.
"This is not the place to talk about this kind of thing. Let's have a good chat later. You are the one who should eat the cake the most. If you can't even move your fork, that would be too unreasonable, right?" Shentu Tianyin said.
Xia Lei shook his head lightly, "Tianyin, I am no longer involved in the Gu family's affairs, and I am not interested in the Gu family's assets."
"You?" Shentu Tianyin looked at Xia Lei with strange eyes. She really didn't understand why Xia Lei was indifferent to such an opportunity to rapidly expand capital.
Xia Lei just smiled without explaining.
Who doesn’t want to see rapid asset expansion? Use 50 million to buy assets worth 200 million, with a profit of 300%, or even more. Or use 100 million to buy a mine worth 1 billion, and the capital will suddenly increase tenfold. How many people can resist the temptation of something like this? Even Shentu Tianyin, who has a net worth of tens of billions, couldn't resist this temptation and took action, let alone someone else
However, despite his heartbeat, Xia Lei saw aspects that others could not see or ignored.
Gu Dingshan went from a street gangster to a tycoon with a net worth of tens of billions. The way he made his fortune was actually the same way, by robbing others and the country. If not, he might still be a gangster on the streets now. But what is his fate now
If you steal from others, you will eventually have to pay it back.
If you rob the country, the law will deal with you sooner or later!
Gudingshan is an example of success, but also an example of failure. If he hadn't robbed so many things from the country, how could the northern group he established collapse so quickly
Therefore, after seeing through this, no matter how tempting or tempting Xia Lei was, he would not take action to snatch the Gu family's property like Shentu Tianyin did. His career must move forward step by step, and every penny he earns is clean. Only in this way, if anyone wants to touch him in the future, there will be no way to get it, there is no way to exploit him!
"Lei, there is only one opportunity, don't you think about it?" Shentu Tianyin did not give up persuading, "I am actually going to recommend you a non-ferrous metals company from the Northern Group. You are engaged in machinery manufacturing. If you win that For this company, you will save a lot of raw material costs. I have channels and I can help you get it."
Xia Lei said with a smile: "No need to persuade me, I have already decided. Also, you should stay less involved in such things."
Shentu Tianyin frowned slightly and said with some displeasure, "Do you think these assets are dirty? Or do you think the way I do business is not aboveboard?"
"You're overthinking." Sensing the obvious change in her tone, Xia Lei quickly explained: "I just think Guding Mountain is a lesson learned from the past. You'd better not walk the same path he walked."
Shentu Tianyin smiled bitterly, "It seems that I am too busy, okay, I won't dissuade you. Today is my birthday, and I don't want to argue with you about doing business. Just wait for me, I'll go greet you. I’m a guest now, I’ll come and dance with you later.”
Xia Lei nodded, "Well, you go and do your work."
Shentu Tianyin turned around and walked towards the few guests who had just entered, greeting them with a smile on his face.
Xia Lei secretly said in his heart: "She is really a very smart woman, but her ambition seems to be getting bigger and bigger. Wanxiang Group has developed to the scale it is today, what else can she not satisfy? She wants to touch the illegal assets of Gudingshan. Has she ever thought that as long as she touches it, she will be fine now, but in a few years or even twenty or thirty years, if someone catches her, how will she face it? "
People's hearts are as high as the sky. People who have earned 10 billion will aspire to earn 100 billion, and people who have earned 100 billion will aspire to earn 1 trillion. There is no end to this, except when life ends.
"Mr. Xia, you are an idiot." Fu Mingmei suddenly came over and said this.
Xia Lei didn't mind, and said with a smile: "Thank you for reminding me, otherwise I would have forgotten it."
"I'm not kidding you." Fu Mingmei said: "Sister Tianyin is a very proud woman, she is very capable, and she hates others teaching her to do things the most. You actually preach to her. Not only do you not get the slightest benefit from doing so, , she will also give you a low score."
"A low score?" Xia Lei said in surprise: "What score?"
Fu Mingmei leaned close to Xia Lei's ear and said, "The man she wants must be a man with a perfect score of 100. With the mistake you just made, your score will be deducted by at least five points."
Xia Lei suddenly felt an uncomfortable feeling in his heart. There are no perfect people in this world, but the man she wants is a 100% perfect man. Is such a request considered a love mysophobia
"You, find a chance to coax her, maybe your score will go up again."
Xia Lei smiled and said, "I don't mind how many points she gives me. I am who I am and I won't change myself for anyone."
Fu Mingmei rolled her eyes at Xia Lei, then raised her finger to the young man who was chatting happily with Shentu Tianyin, "I would like to remind you again, have you seen that young man? His name is An Xiuxian, from the Korean Divine Realm Group Young Dong, whose father is a veteran politician, is said to be expected to win the next South Korean presidential election."
Xia Lei's eyes fell on An Xiuxian. Even though he was of the same gender, his eyes lit up. This Ahn Soo-hyun has a tall and tall figure, and his appearance seems to have been carefully carved by a scalpel. He is extremely handsome. He also has a noble temperament about him. This temperament is a true aristocratic temperament, which cannot be cultivated by making a lot of money.
Shentu Tianyin and Ahn Soo-hyun stand together, giving people a feeling of being made in heaven. The picture is so beautiful that it makes people jealous.
But Fu Mingmei raised her finger and pointed at the man next to An Xiuxian, "That's the diving prince, Tu Qinglong. He is also one of Sister Tianyin's suitors. Many media say that he has the most perfect genes in mankind."
Xia Lei's eyes moved to Tu Qinglong again. Although Qinglong is not as handsome as Ahn Soo-hyun in this picture, he obviously looks more mature and sexy with his mermaid figure. He has a beard on his handsome face and is full of masculinity. Tu Qinglong also has a very special temperament, giving people a very sunny and healthy feeling. If he and Shentu Tianyin were together, they would be a couple like a golden boy and a beautiful girl.
Xia Lei withdrew his gaze and just smiled without saying anything.
"Why are you laughing?" Fu Mingmei rolled her eyes at Xia Lei dissatisfied, "If Uncle Yi didn't like you, I wouldn't bother to tell you this. You don't know how many outstanding men Sister Tianyin is pursuing. In the past, Gu Ke With Wu here, no one dares to take the lead, and now that Gu Kewu has been arrested, these people will not give up. If you don’t work harder, you will be eliminated.”
While the Gu family was still alive and Gu Kewu's power was still there, these people did not dare to compete with Gu Kewu for women, but after Gu Kewu was arrested, these people all appeared. The defeat of the Gu family was really a happy event for everyone.
Xia Lei just smiled and said, "Miss Mingmei, I think you should stop worrying about me. You should worry about your own. Are you dating someone? I'll introduce you to one."
"Fuck you, if you continue like this, one day you will hide in bed and cry." Fu Mingmei didn't want to talk to Xia Lei anymore, so she turned and left.
Xia Lei stayed silent for a moment, and asked himself secretly in his heart, "Will I hide in bed and cry?"
After Liang Siyao left, he hid in bed and cried, but he swore that was the last time.
Xia Lei's eyes moved to Shentu Tianyin, An Xiuxian and Tu Qinglong. The three of them were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Ahn Soo Hyun speaks fluent Chinese and his conversation is humorous. Tu Qinglong is not bad either, he behaves well, is good at showing the best of himself, and is also a man who knows how to please women.
At this time, a float suddenly pushed through the door. The float was filled with roses, and a huge cake was placed in the painting of roses. Shentu Tianyin's name was written in chocolate on the cake, as well as a Korean blessing.
There was a burst of applause in the hall.
Shentu Tianyin said happily: "Xiuxian, thank you, what is written on it?"
Ahn Soo-hyun showed a charming smile, "I want to give you the best things in the world."
Shentu Tianyin was stunned for a moment, and there was a hint of blush on his cheeks. She didn't know why, but her eyes moved to Xia Lei's direction.
Xia Lei smiled at her.
Ahn Soo-hyun picked up the candle-lighting tool and lit the candles on the cake, and then said gently: "Tianyin, make a wish."
Shentu Tianyin closed his eyes and made a wish to the dancing candlelight.
The guests sang birthday songs, and the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.
"Let's cut the cake." Ahn Soo-hyun's voice is always so gentle.
Shentu Tianyin took the knife handed to her by An Xiuxian and cut the cake. She was immersed in the flowers and blessings and seemed a little intoxicated, forgetting the person she cared about most.
"Happy birthday." Xia Lei's voice was so low that only he could hear it.
At this time, a waiter walked up to Xia Lei and whispered: "Sir, someone wants to see you."
Xia Lei glanced at the waiter, "Who wants to see me?"
The waiter said politely: "It's a young lady. She didn't tell me her name. She just asked me to deliver the message. Please come with me."
"Where is she?" Xia Lei glanced around the hall. All the guests in the hall focused their attention on Shentu Tianyin and An Xiuxian, and no one looked at him at all.
"Sir, please come with me." The waiter did not say where the woman was. He walked towards a side door.
Xia Lei was confused. He hesitated and followed the waiter to the side door.
