Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

Chapter 597

Lanshuipu, as soon as you hear the place name, you know that this is definitely not a good place.

Most of the people who lived here before were fishermen.

Because they couldn't afford a house in the urban area, they had to settle down here.

Half a year ago, the Rotten Water Shop was still a place that was not interesting.

Generally, people in the city would not come to this wilderness except for outings and picnics.

But at this time, Lanshuipu has become a lively and bustling place.

There are bars, bath centers, karaoke, massage parlors, nightclubs and the like.

It's unimaginable at all, but in less than half a year, there has been an earth-shaking change here.

In order to make this place prosperous, Lin Daoqiu had already burned nearly 6000 million in cash.

But all of this was worth it to Lin Daoqiu.

Because of the nearby land price and Lin Daoqiu's desperate marketing efforts, it has quietly increased by 350%.

From the original 500 yuan, it has risen to 1750, and judging by the situation, I am afraid it will continue to rise.

Because of the rise in land prices, Lin Daoqiu has earned back all the money invested in the pedestrian street, and even has a surplus.

But for Lin Daoqiu, his purpose is not to make money for the pedestrian street, nor is it to increase the price of the land he bought.

The reason why he did this was to attract Bao Shaogang and the others to come here to buy land.

And in order to speed up the rhythm, Lin Daoqiu sprinkled a lot of ingredients into Bao Shaogang.

"Hello, I'm Marshall, president of Le Bon Marché department store in Asia."

Le Bon Marché department store is a well-known department store in the world, headquartered in Paris.

Because it is the oldest and most magnificent department store in Paris, it is often used as a shooting scene in movies.

It can be said that this department store is famous all over the world.

At this time, a foreigner with a high nose looked at Lin Daoqiu with a haughty face.

"Remember to use your nostrils to face people, keep your head a little higher, and speak a little more arrogantly."

Lin Daoqiu corrected the other person's posture while teaching him how to speak.

The guy in front of him is not Marshall at all, nor is he from Le Bon Marché, he is just a liar brought by Lin Daoqiu.

To be precise, this guy was carefully selected by Lin Daoqiu. After all, if you want to deceive Bao Shaogang and the others, ordinary liars will easily reveal their secrets, so you have to find a master.

"Pay attention to your attitude, it's very impolite for you to talk to me like this, you know?"

As soon as Lin Daoqiu pointed out, Marshall immediately frowned, looking very unhappy.

It seems that the other party is really smart and can understand what he means right away.

"I will give you $30 when it's done, but please remember, if it fails, not only will you not get the money, but I will throw it into the sea and feed the fish."

For such a guy, in addition to the carrot, the stick is also indispensable.

Lin Daoqiu didn't hope that when the time came, not only did he fail to deceive Bao Shaogang, but he was also deceived by this guy.

"Mr. Lin, don't worry, with such a large sum of money, it's okay for you to ask me to kill people, and I've never missed it, please believe me."

Marshall looked at Lin Daoqiu greedily. Such a large sum of money, as long as he got it, would be enough for him to spend several years in style.

Lin Daoqiu had customized an identity for Marshall as the president of the Asian region. Lin Daoqiu believed that even if Bao Shaogang and the others went to investigate, they would not be able to find anything in a while.

What's more, Lin Daoqiu was by Bao Shaogang's side, and he still had a backup, but he wouldn't reveal it easily before the time came.

…………

Sitting in his office, Fan Jiaming put his feet up on the chair, looking very comfortable.

In the recent period, Fan Jiaming has hardly been scolded by Bao Shaogang, which makes him feel very difficult to be in a bad mood.

And when Fan Jiaming was thinking about where he was going to play at night, there was a knock on the door of his office.

"Come in."

Putting his feet down and sitting up straight, Fan Jiaming would still show a very serious look in front of outsiders.

When the door was pushed open, the subordinate who was in charge of investigating the Rotten Water Store walked in from the outside.

Judging by the expression on his face, he seemed to be very anxious.

"Fan Shao, I inquired about something extraordinary."

Fan Jiaming had a nonchalant expression on his face, he didn't think the other party could find out anything serious.

"Speak slowly if you have anything to say, don't worry, after following me for such a long time, why can't you learn my stable character?"

After finishing speaking, Fan Jiaming couldn't help shaking his head.

"I'm sorry Fan Shao, I will definitely pay attention next time."

I don't know what happened to Fan Jiaming today, he suddenly started to put on a show, but this is not something he needs to care about.

Nodding his head, it seemed that Fan Jiaming was very satisfied with the other party's answer.

"What did you hear? Tell me."

After Fan Jiaming finished asking, he began to look down at the documents.

"In the past few days, I was inquiring about the news at the Rotten Water Shop, and I suddenly met a group of French people who have been wandering around, and it seems that they are going to buy land there."

Hearing this news, Fan Jiaming's heart didn't even fluctuate in the slightest.

It's no big deal that a group of French people want to buy land there. After all, the business on the pedestrian street in Lanshuipu is so prosperous, it's normal for these people to want to make money.

"Okay, is there any other news?"

Fan Jiaming curled his lips, he was not interested in this news at all.

"Fan Shao, listen to me first, and then I quietly inquired about the identities of those people, and found that they are from Le Bon Marché."

Having never heard of this name before, Fan Jiaming raised his head and looked at the opposite subordinate with a blank expression.

If it were Bao Shaogang, he might still know what Le Bon Marché is.

But it's a pity that Fan Jiaming's knowledge is not so profound. Apart from local affairs, he doesn't know much about foreign affairs.

"Le Bon Marché is the oldest department store in France, and enjoys a good reputation all over the world. It is one of the best department stores in the world."

Spreading his arms, he made a big concept in front of Fan Jiaming.

It seems that this guy wants to let Fan Jiaming know how famous Le Bon Marché is.

Fortunately, Fan Jiaming is not a fool. The other party has made it so clear that he has already realized the importance of this news.

"You mean, Le Bon Marché is going to open a store in Lanshuipu?"

Although Fan Jiaming didn't know how influential Le Bon Marché department store was, if that department store really chose to open a store in Lanshuipu, the surrounding land prices would probably double again.

"I don't know the exact situation, but they have been walking around for several days in a row. I think it should be close to ten."

Fan Jiaming, who looked calm at first, suddenly stood up from his chair and walked out immediately.

He wanted to report the news to Bao Shaogang immediately.

　Thank you, get used to the style, this is my life, a big monthly ticket!mwah! ╰(*°▽°*)╯
