"As long as it's not you."

"Thank you, Brother Peng."

"It should."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Dong got out of bed.

Qiuti asked dazedly, "Brother Dong, are you going out?"

Shen Dong said, "The police suspect that I went out to kill someone tonight. I will go to the living room and wait for them. You can continue to sleep. I will be back after I send the police away."

Qiuti let out a "oh" and fell asleep again.

After waiting in the living room for twenty minutes, a bodyguard invited Miao Zhishun and other police officers in.

"It seems that you have a good relationship with Peng Yixing." Miao Zhishun said with a smile.

Shen Dong made a "hush" gesture and said, "My two girlfriends are resting. Officer Miao, please keep your voice down."

Miao Zhishun said: "Mr. Shen, you should know why I came here, right?"

Shen Dong nodded and said, "Jiang Tianyang from Hongxing."

Miao Zhishun asked: "Excuse me, do you have anything to do with this matter?"

Shen Dong turned his left arm and said, "I'm not injured here. Sir Miao, you've got the wrong person."

Miao Zhishun asked: "Do you know who it is?"

Shen Dong said impatiently, "I don't know. Jiang Tianyang is the leader of Hongxing. I'm afraid he himself doesn't know how many enemies he has, so how can I know? Mr. Miao, I'm really tired after serving two girlfriends just now. If you have any questions, please come back tomorrow. I will tell you everything I know."

Miao Zhishun stood up and said, "Sorry to bother you."

After leaving Shen Dong's villa, Miao Zhishun frowned.

If the people who took action weren't Shen Dong and Peng Yixing, then who else could it be?

A figure appeared in Miao Zhishun's mind.

Thor?

Could it be him?

Miao Zhishun called the president of the gun club.

The president of the Gun Club was very dissatisfied, but he still helped him look up Thor's contact information and home address.

Miao Zhishun quickly called, but a woman answered the phone.

When we arrived at the home address Thor left, the person who opened the door turned out to be a female student.

Needless to say, Thor left false information.

The next morning, Miao Zhishun returned to the police station and reported to the chief, listing Thor as an extremely dangerous suspect.

What he didn't know was that Thor had already left Hong Kong Island with the help of his brother.

He will come back after his injury heals.

By then, even if the police caught him, Thor could simply use the excuse of being ignorant of the matter.

The police had no evidence and could only sigh in despair.

Chapter 367 The shopping mall is like a battlefield

On the other hand, Li Chaoren organized a massive donation campaign, donated 20 million US dollars to the police, and expressed his gratitude to them for killing Zhang Shiqiang and his gang of lawless gangsters.

On the way back, Li Chaoren asked, "Zekai, how are the sales of our sand and cement?"

During this period, Li Chaoren's attention was all focused on Zhang Shiqiang and his gang, and he didn't know much about the company's situation.

Li Zekai smiled bitterly and said, "Even though we have lowered the price to a level lower than Shen Dong's, no one still buys our sand and cement."

Li Chaoren asked: "Where is Shen Dong?"

Li Zekai said, "All the major companies are buying his products. No matter how much is shipped in, they will take it away according to their respective proportions. In addition, the Hong Kong Island Real Estate Association set up by Shen Dong has become more and more powerful. In addition to us, the Guo family, the Li family, and the Zheng family, almost all other medium and large real estate companies in Hong Kong Island have joined. Father, if this continues, Hong Kong Island will become their world."

Li Chaoren let out a long breath and said, "What a great Shen Dong! We all underestimated him."

Li Zekai said: "Dad, Shen Dong has gone too far. We must teach him a lesson."

Li Chaoren asked: "What are you going to do?"

Li Zekai said: "Shen Dong owns many KTVs, dance halls, and nightclubs, and they are not very clean. We can use our connections with the police to stop him from doing business. Especially the Bi Hai Nightclub, which has a turnover of several million every night. If we take it down, Shen Dong's capital chain may be in trouble."

Li Chaoren shook his head and said, "Such a small fight will not have any impact on Shen Dong. If we want to fight, we should hit him in the weak spot and kill him with one strike."

As an entrepreneur who has been in the business world for decades, Li Chaoren's wisdom is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

The method Li Zekai came up with was at best a third-rate businessman's trick, and Li Chaoren simply didn't take it seriously.

Li Zekai asked: "Dad, where do you think Shen Dong's Achilles' heel is?"

Li Chaoren said: "Shen Dong's business is too big. He is not only engaged in real estate business, but also involves investment, ports, taxis, instant noodles, clothing, hotels, KTV, etc. I heard that he is going to set up a bicycle company and a beverage company in Pengcheng. Such a business layout is simply too messy. As long as there is a problem in one point, other points will have problems one after another."

"You are absolutely right to attack Shen Dong's capital chain. As long as the capital chain is broken, all his industries will be ruined. Just a mere Bi Hai Nightclub cannot bring him down."

Li Zekai pondered and said, "Dad, I heard that Shen Dong mortgaged many of his properties to the bank some time ago and borrowed 300 million US dollars."

Li Chaoren frowned and asked, "What does he plan to do with these 300 million US dollars?"

Li Zekai shook his head and said, "I'm not sure."

Li Chaoren said: "Shen Dong seems to be humble, polite, calm and measured, but in fact he is arrogant and eager for quick success. If we want to defeat him, we just need to grasp one word."

Li Zekai quickly asked: "Which word?"

Li Chaoren said, "Wait. Wait for him to make a mistake, wait for him to expose his flaws. In the business world, patience is the most important thing. Either don't make a move, or make sure it bleeds."

Li Zekai nodded and said, "I understand. Dad, what about our construction materials? According to Shen Dong's speed, Hong Kong Island will be saturated with construction materials in at most one week."

Li Chaoren said in a deep voice: "Sell it directly at cost price."

Li Zekai's face changed and he said, "This...this..."

Li Chaoren said: "Don't worry about the victory or defeat at the moment, we should look to the future. It's just tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars, we can afford to lose. Shen Dong wants to establish his position in Hong Kong Island by relying on building materials, that's a dream."

Li Zekai said: "I will announce the news as soon as I get to the company."

Soon, the news that Li Chaoren was selling construction materials at a loss spread throughout the entire Hong Kong real estate industry.

“It’s too cheap.”

"A ton of cement costs 600 Hong Kong dollars, and a ton of sand costs 80 Hong Kong dollars. It seems that Superman Li has no other options."

"This is to start a price war with President Shen."

"President Shen is really amazing. He actually pushed Li Chaoren to this point."

"I wonder what price President Shen will offer."

......

Once this price came out, the person most affected was undoubtedly Shen Dong and his Hong Kong Real Estate Association.

Cheng Qingquan came to Tengfei Real Estate Company and met Shen Dong.

"Adong, the association is a little unstable."

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Mr. Cheng, is it because everyone is getting impatient after seeing that Li Chaoren's building materials prices are so low?"

Cheng Qingquan nodded and said, "That's right."

Shen Dong said: "This is normal. The world is bustling with people, all for profit. Li Chaoren didn't want to lose the building materials in his hands, so he had no choice but to lower the price to the cost price. Unfortunately, his cost price is still too high."

"Mr. Cheng, go tell them that my building materials prices will only be lower than Li Chaoren's. I will announce the prices after the Hong Kong Island market is saturated."

"But if anyone dares to buy Li Chaoren's building materials without the association's consent, don't blame me for being rude to him."

Cheng Qingquan asked, "You won't lose money, right?"

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Don't worry, I can't compensate you."

The dispute over building materials was the first fire that Shen Dong started as the president of the Hong Kong Real Estate Association. He could only succeed and not fail.

Even if he loses money in the end, he will not let Li Chaoren sell even a ton of cement and sand.

At this point, money is not important. What is important is that he brings confidence to the Hong Kong Island Real Estate Association and enhances their sense of belonging.

After getting Shen Dong's promise, everyone quieted down.

After a whole day, Li Chaoren still didn't sell a ton of cement.

After inquiring, Li Zekai finally found out that Shen Dong had been engaged in a price war with them for a long time.

“Cheaper than our price?”

Li Chaoren snorted and said, "What a competitive young man."

Li Zekai said: "Dad, what should we do?"

Li Chaoren said, "Of course it's a negotiation. Please make an appointment for me with Shen Dong to have tea at Huifeng Teahouse in the Central and Western District."

Li Zekai nodded and said, "Okay."

At ten o'clock the next morning, Shen Dong and Li Chaoren met again.

Li Chaoren personally poured a cup of tea for Shen Dong and said with a smile: "We had a good talk when we first met, but this time we have become business rivals. I have to say, things are unpredictable."

Shen Dong politely took the tea and said, "Business is like a battlefield. There is nothing we can do about it."

Li Chaoren said, "I heard from Chief Superintendent Li Wenbin that you told him where Zhang Shiqiang and his gang were hiding. Mr. Shen, I am really grateful."

Shen Dong smiled and said, "This is what I should do."

Li Chaoren said, "I have already given Zhang Shiqiang 1 billion Hong Kong dollars. Why do you think he still wants to trouble me?"

Shen Dong shrugged and said, "Who knows? These bastards can't be analyzed with common sense."

Chapter 368 Price War

Li Chaoren said quietly, "Superintendent Li Wenbin once gave me an analysis. He said that someone took the 1 billion Hong Kong dollars in my name and deliberately let Zhang Shiqiang go, which made him hate me so much. Mr. Shen, do you think his analysis is correct?"

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Inspector Li has extensive experience in handling cases of this nature, so his analysis should be correct. It's a pity that Inspector Li can't find the evidence and can't recover the 1 billion Hong Kong dollars for you."

Li Chaoren praised: "That person is really good at this."

Shen Dong said, "You are too modest. He is far from you. For example, his heart is not hard enough. Just think about it. If this man had taken action before Mr. Li Zekai was released, I am afraid you would have to send him off now."

Li Chaoren's expression changed, he nodded and said, "In that case, I really have to thank him."

Shen Dong laughed and said, "I should thank you. Sir Li, these things are in the past, and there is no point in talking about them. You invited me to have tea this time, should it be about the construction materials?"

Li Chaoren said, "That's right. Mr. Shen, I heard that the price you offered is even lower than our cost price. If this continues, I won't be able to sell the goods, and you will probably suffer a huge loss. This is a lose-lose situation, and a wise man would not do that."

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Sir Li, what do you want?"

Li Chaoren said: "Cooperative pricing."

Shen Dong smiled and said, "Impossible. The reason why I was able to establish the Hong Kong Real Estate Association and become its president is that I can import construction materials from the inland, and the price is cheaper than yours. The so-called cooperative pricing is a poison pill to me. Once I swallow it, I, Shen Dong, will be reduced to my original form. Sir Li, you are harming me."

Li Chaoren frowned and said, "Businessmen pursue profits. You must have spent a huge price to get the exclusive import rights for inland building materials. But in the end you can't make any money. Don't you think it's a pity?"

Shen Dong said: "Since ancient times, everyone has been talking about fame and fortune. Fame always comes before fortune. Why is that? Because reputation is more important than fortune. Sir Li, I can tell you clearly that the price of the building materials I sell must be lower than yours. Even if I give them away for free in the end, I must continue. It may cause me some losses in the short term, but in the long run, I will make a profit."

Li Chaoren's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he said, "Are you determined to go against us?"

Shen Dong said, "It is you four major families who are against all of us. Sir Li, the situation has developed to this point, and I have no way out. I can only go all the way. Even if I hit a wall, I can't turn back."

Li Chaoren took a sip of tea, suddenly laughed, and said, "In all these years, you are the first person who dares to provoke us."

Shen Dong shook his head and said, "This is a challenge, not a provocation, and I believe that more and more people will dare to challenge you."

Li Chaoren said: "You can't win."

Shen Dong said: "I am not sure I can beat you, but I am absolutely sure I will not lose."

Li Chaoren looked at him deeply and said, "I underestimated you at the beginning. Have some tea."

Shen Dong knew that he was going to see him off, so he picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and said, "Thank you for the tea. Goodbye."

After saying that, Shen Dong stood up and walked out.

When he reached the door, Shen Dong suddenly stopped, turned around and asked, "Sir Li, have you ever thought about joining our Hong Kong Island Real Estate Association?"
