Return to Hong Kong Island for a Century

Chapter 85 The Little Notebook Arrives (Second Update, Seeking First Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

“I’ll bring this up with the boss later, but you’re just leaving it at that. Someone’s got their eye on you,” Tian Jiahui asked again.

"They're all scoundrels..."

"So what if you're a scoundrel? Think about it, if you can't even handle this little thing, do you think the boss will hire you again next time?"

"The boss's business is booming; it won't be long before you land another huge order." Tian Jiahui was just talking nonsense.

Tian Jiahui is forcing Zhang Dehua to solve the problem, rather than seeking out those gangsters to resolve it himself, since there are risks involved in doing so.

"This!" Zhang Dehua was still a little hesitant, after all, it would cost money.

“Look at your attitude. How am I supposed to introduce clients to you next time? You can’t even maintain your own clients. Why should they make money for you?” Tian Jiahui said.

"Okay, I'll deal with it as soon as possible. These bastards are messing with me!" Zhang Dehua felt that this made sense, so he spoke up.

"I'll have to trouble you with Mr. Li's situation, Brother Jia Hui," Zhang Dehua said again.

"No problem, no problem. As long as you get things done, everything is fine." Tian Jiahui breathed a sigh of relief, finally relieved that he didn't have to go looking for trouble with those guys himself.

The next day, Sunday, Li Song and A Lin lingered together until noon before getting up, mainly because Li Song had too much energy.

In the afternoon, they went shopping together. Ah Lin, who didn't want to move at home, was full of energy while shopping, while Li Song was the opposite.

Li Song bought Alin some clothes and cosmetics, all high-end items, since she was dressing up for herself anyway.

"Take this money and spend it." When they got home that evening, Li Song put some money in A Lin's purse.

"Brother Song, I don't want to!" Arlene felt uneasy.

“Take it. You’re my woman. What’s wrong with me spending money on you?” Li Song said.

"Thank you!"

"We're all friends, you can thank them properly later..."

"Brother Song..." Arlene felt her legs go weak when she thought of Li Song's fit physique and explosive power.

Fortunately, Li Song knew what was good for him and didn't have any further conversations with Alin in the middle of the night, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to go to school on Monday.

On Monday, Li Song took a taxi to send A Lin to school, and then went to Parkson Department Store.

Arlene had just arrived at school when she heard her best friend say that her dad had called looking for her, but her best friend covered it up.

Ah Lin took out some small gifts she had bought for her best friend. Although Ah Lin's father was often not in Hong Kong Island, he would call the neighbors to ask if she was home.

Arlene strongly disliked her father's approach of trusting others over her.

"Boss, I've spoken with Zhang Dehua, but he's a bit worried and wants an authorization contract; otherwise, it'll be difficult to deal with those little notebooks." Li Song arrived at the company, and Tian Jiahui came to the office.

"Prepare an authorization contract and have Zhang Dehua sign it." Li Song nodded.

"Okay, boss. Zhang Dehua is also very annoyed by Xiaobenzi's actions and is preparing to deal with those guys who are trying to poach his employees."

“I think this is fine too, we don’t need to get involved,” Tian Jiahui continued.

"Yes, tell him to handle things well, and he'll have another big business opportunity coming his way in a while." Li Song nodded in agreement. Since Zhang Dehua was involved, that was even better.

Hearing that Li Song had another big order coming up in a few days, Zhang Dehua rushed over to sign the contract. "Mr. Li, I'm so sorry, I never expected my company to end up like this," Zhang Dehua said, apologizing as soon as they met.

Li Song chuckled. In business, people say one thing to one person and another to another; after all, they're all in a cooperative relationship.

"It's good that Mr. Zhang knows, because this way we'll still have opportunities to cooperate in the future. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't dare to cooperate with Mr. Zhang in the future." Li Song also knew that Zhang Dehua and his people had their own ways of doing international agency business in Hong Kong.

It just depends on whether the other party is willing to handle this matter. After all, everything requires resources, even using connections.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I guarantee that Xiaobenzi will be in deep trouble."

"I heard that Mr. Li has another big business deal coming up?" Zhang Dehua quickly patted his chest to assure him.

"Well, it might be ten days to half a month. We'll talk about the exact time later." Li Song's words made Zhang Dehua unsure. In any case, if things weren't handled well, then there was no hope for future cooperation.

"Just watch my performance, Mr. Li." Zhang Dehua also mistakenly believed that his company had leaked Li Song's information, which made Li Song unhappy, as well as causing harassment from those gangsters.

Then Li Song signed a licensing agreement with Zhang Dehua, in which Li Song entrusted Zhang Dehua's company to handle the patent licensing. As for the price and other details, Li Song had to agree to them, and the fee was for purchasing the patent.

This agreement is actually not very substantial; it's just an authorization. It authorizes Zhang Dehua to negotiate on his behalf, but he can still make the decisions about the rest.

"That's good. I like people who follow the rules, and I hope to cooperate with Mr. Zhang more often in the future," Li Song said with a smile.

Although Zhang Dehua promised to resolve this matter, Li Song still needs to cultivate his own people, just like in his previous life when a wealthy man in Hong Kong was kidnapped.

"Don't worry, Mr. Li, I'm actually looking forward to those little notebooks finding their way back to me..." Zhang Dehua said with a smile, holding up the authorization contract.

Just then, Secretary Zhang Shuwen knocked on the door. Li Song let her in, and she immediately said, "Boss, a manager from Suzuki Company has come to the front desk and says he wants to see you."

"Hehe, let's go, Mr. Zhang, let's go see what's going on?" Li Song chuckled. Sometimes, people just can't resist being nagged.

Holding the contract in his hand, Zhang Dehua gritted his teeth. These little books don't follow the rules, so they can't blame him.

This could cost Zhang Dehua a lot of money. Once Li Song's motorcycle patent is authorized, the fees are very high, and even a small agency fee would be a considerable sum for him.

Inoue and Tanoshita accompanied Minister Hojo to the Parkson Company, where Minister Hojo was in a very bad mood.

Because Minister Hojo asked someone in Japan to contact someone in Hong Kong, he paid another HK$100,000 and still owed a huge favor.

The result obtained was exactly the same as that obtained by Inoue and Tashita.

This time, the details were more comprehensive. First, they found Tian Jiahui, who was with Li Song, and then they discovered that Tian Jiahui worked at Parkson Company, whose legal representative was the patent holder.

So Hojo brought Inoue and Tanaka to the Parkson Company.

"Baka!" Hojo glanced at the location of Parkson Company, which wasn't far from his own company's office in Hong Kong Island, and felt even angrier. After getting out of the car, he couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath.

Inoue and Tashita, who were walking behind, quickly said, "Hey!"

The three of them then went to Parkson Department Store, where they were greeted and registered at the front desk before being reported to their superiors.

Hojo felt slighted and was placed in the company lobby, even though he was a department head at Suzuki Company!

"Haha, Mr. Inoue, we meet again." A slightly arrogant voice rang out, and only then did the group see someone coming down from the second floor. The person in front was a young man in a Gucci suit, and the one who spoke was a man carrying documents behind him.
