Prosperity: Conquering Billions of Gambling Kings

Chapter 71

Gu Xiaobei pursed her lips, and immediately said, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to inquire about your private affairs."

"It doesn't matter." Xu Shaoyang smiled slightly, "We will discuss the matter of organizing the Patriotic Association later when we have time."

Gu Xiaobei hummed, bid farewell politely, and left his office.

……

The night shrouded the pier, and the water surface of the deep harbor was shaking because of the cool wind, reflecting sparkling light under the faint lights.

Gu Huai'an raised his head and looked at the sky, it was dark and there was no starlight.

The damp water vapor on the pier is also getting heavier, and it feels like a heavy rain is about to usher.

Remembering that some of his and Xiaobei's clothes were drying in his yard, Gu Huaian hurried home when he was free.

"Mr. Gu."

In the small alley leading to Zhabei, a car blocked the middle of the road.

Making it impossible to move on, the man in a black suit stood in front of Gu Huai'an, speaking in a blunt tone.

The sky was too dark, Gu Huai'an could hardly see his face clearly, he clenched his fists, his movements were cautious and defensive.

"who are you?"

"Mr. Gu, don't panic. Our boss wants to talk to you." The man turned sideways, looking at the car behind.

Taking a steady breath, Gu Huai'an's eyes were cold, "We are strangers to each other, it seems that we have nothing to talk about."

"Mr. Gu, our boss has no ill intentions towards you. He just wants to discuss a business with you. I hope you can sell some thin noodles and meet with the boss. If the business cannot be negotiated, it's okay to make friends. We won't make things difficult for you .” The man’s attitude is always humble and polite.

After taking a breath, Gu Huaian said lightly, "It's going to rain, wait until I collect my clothes."

The man nodded, followed Gu Huai'an into his dilapidated yard, and watched him take back all the clothes to dry at home.

That's when he was invited to the car.

After getting into the car, the man raised his hand, and the driver drove quickly.

"Where are you going?" Gu Huaian asked indifferently.

In the middle of the night, he still has this vigilance.

"Mr. Gu, don't worry, you will know when it arrives in a while."

More than ten minutes later, the car drove to Nanjing Road.

This is the most prosperous area in Shanghai, and it is still full of feasting and singing at night.

Turning a corner, the car drove in through the back door of the Bank of East Asia.

After getting out of the car, Gu Huai'an followed the man and was taken directly to a luxurious room.

Looking at the location, it should be in the backyard of the Bank of East Asia.

The door was a wooden carved sliding door, and the floor was covered with a thick layer of wool felt. A man in a gray kimono sat cross-legged at the table, looking down at a pot of steaming new tea.

"Boss, Mr. Gu is here."

The man raised his head and smiled, "Come in and sit down."

"Mr. Gu, this is my boss, Hojo Kanan. Chairman of the Bank of East Asia."

After some introductions, the man took the initiative to step back, pushed the door together and brought him up.

"Mr. Gu, please sit down."

Hojo Kanan bowed to invite, with a respectful and polite tone.

Gu Huai'an looked at the high-quality wool felt, took off his shoes, and sat down across from him awkwardly.

There are countless possibilities in my mind.

Hojo Kanan is the chairman of the Bank of East Asia, and he has heard of this person for a long time.Some time ago, Mr. Tan detained the smuggled tobacco at the pier.

Could it be that the person who came to him this time...was not kind?
"Mr. Gu, this is the Yuqian Longjing tea that is abundant in Fukuoka, Japan. Try it, how is it better than the Chinese one?" Hojo Kanan poured a cup of tea gracefully, and gently pushed the cup to his face.
