Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 153 [Betrayal]

Cheng Jianshen's suggestion was very much in line with Luo Qihong's thoughts, so he nodded to show his agreement. At the same time, he called Yang Mingkun and told him to pay attention to the recent quantity bills and arrange time to take over these projects.

Yang Mingkun naturally agreed. After all, Luo Qihong mentioned the project of five small commercial buildings, which was equivalent to the project volume of Fengtu Construction Company for more than half a year, and the amount involved was as high as 5 million yuan.

In the first half of the year, Luo Qihong received dividends of nearly 220 million yuan from Fengtu Construction Company, getting back all his previous investments and even making some profits.

It is conceivable that Fengtu Construction Company has extraordinary profitability, and with the support of Luo Qihong's company, as long as it "does not make any mistakes", the beginnings of a large-scale construction company will be revealed.

Zhaoan Real Estate Company has some shopping mall renovation projects with Li Yulong and others. They have now cooperated on 7 shopping malls and earned a profit of 210 million yuan.

However, judging from the information in the report, Li Yulong and his people still had "under-the-table deals" and left out Zhaoan Real Estate Company. They worked on the shopping mall project alone and earned nearly 9 million yuan in profits, of which Li Yulong received 230 million yuan.

Luo Qihong sneered, "These people always like to do business secretly."

Cheng Jianshen took the report and frowned after reading it. "Boss, do we need to stop cooperating with them?"

Luo Qihong shook his head and said, "No, this business can't be kept secret for too long. It's certain that the market will be divided up with others, but it's only divided up with people like Li Yulong."

"Seal up this evidence. I'll need it later."

"Yes!" Cheng Jianshen suggested, "Should we increase our investment in the mall renovation project? This will reduce our profit losses and punish these traitors at the same time."

"No, help me spread the word that there is a lot of profit in the renovation of old shopping malls." Luo Qihong did not intend to exit directly, but to turn these businesses into mass businesses, and people like Li Yulong would naturally exit slowly.

At this time, Luo Qihong had already attributed these things to Li Yulong and his son. Li Jiafeng should not have been directly involved in this matter, but as "father and son are one", the interests of Li Jiafeng and Li Yulong are inseparable.

At least that's what outsiders think, and Luo Qihong also thinks so.

Li Jiafeng inexplicably asked Luo Qihong out without specifying any specific matters, but instead went out of the name of reminiscing about the past.

On the third day after the news spread, many real estate developers had already started competing, the prices of old shopping malls also increased significantly, and the profits were further reduced.

Li Jiafeng said with a serious expression, "Boss, I have something to tell you."

Luo Qihong smiled faintly and said, "What's so serious?"

Li Jiafeng pondered for a moment and said, "I am responsible for collecting shopping mall information. The number of shopping mall projects in the account book does not match. My father said that some projects will not start construction until some time later. Too many shopping malls on the market will affect the price."

"But I went to the site to take a look and found that some of the shopping malls listed in the information had already started construction, so I suspected that my dad and others secretly carried out these projects to make a profit."

Luo Qihong thought carefully. If Li Jiafeng had told him two days ago, he might still think that Li Jiafeng was unaware of it. His current behavior was more like "closing the fold after the horse has bolted."

But he said calmly, "So what do you think I should do?"

Li Jiafeng shook his head. "I don't know either, so I came here to tell you. I can understand you accusing my dad, after all, it was my dad who was unjust first."

"How do you sue?" Luo Qihong smiled and said, "The contract we signed did not state that your father is not allowed to set up a new company to compete."

The words "your father" hit Li Jiafeng's head like a hammer. He knew clearly that Luo Qihong was angry. "According to my investigation, those projects made a profit of about 9 million yuan. I will compensate you for this loss." "Forget it! I'm not a stingy person. It's just 9 million. I can afford the loss." Luo Qihong said to Li Jiafeng, "Go back and tell your father that after completing these projects, there is no need for us to cooperate anymore. The profits are my gift to him."

"Boss, this matter really has nothing to do with me. I really just found the evidence now." Li Jiafeng admired Luo Qihong's ability to make money and wanted to get rich with him, but now he has become like this.

"Well, I believe you." Luo Qihong said perfunctorily, "It's hard for you to be caught in the middle. A person only has one father in his life, so it's better for us to have less contact."

Of course he would never trust Li Jiafeng again, even if this guy killed his father.

However, if Li Jiafeng really killed Li Yulong to take credit, Luo Qihong would be very scared, because this kind of person can do anything.

Li Yulong Family Residence

As soon as Li Jiafeng entered the living room, he sat on the sofa angrily and questioned Li Yulong who was reading the newspaper, "Why did you do this? For such a small profit, you actually cut off the connection with Luo Qihong."

Li Yulong put down the newsprint and smiled awkwardly, "It's all your uncles' fault. They always whispered these things in my ears, and I got caught by accident."

"What did Luo Qihong say? How about we give him back the profits?" Li Yulong asked tentatively with some heartache.

"Hmph! Who is Luo Qihong? He made more than 1 million yuan in profit from the Hongpu Real Estate Company. Would he care about a mere 9 million yuan in profit?" Li Jiafeng said unhappily.

"Then what does he want?" Li Yulong began to become serious, and the majesty of the patriarch was revealed.

Li Jiafeng was not afraid at all. "Luo Qihong said that he would not associate with us after those projects were completed. We can only eat ourselves in the future."

Li Yulong didn't care. "Humph! He's just a rising star. Aren't there many talented people emerging in Hong Kong? Now they are all buried underground or have fled Hong Kong. Luo Qihong won't be able to hold on for long."

Li Jiafeng was furious. When did his dad become so short-sighted?

It would have been fine if Luo Qihong had failed, but now Luo Qihong is at his peak and has acquired the most high-quality enterprise, China Gas Company. As long as there is no huge crisis, Luo Qihong will make a comeback.

"If you want to please Luo Qihong, the only way is to break up with me and leave the family." Li Yulong said seriously, as if testing Li Jiafeng's attitude.

As a result, Li Jiafeng rolled his eyes at Li Yulong and said, "Just behave yourself and those uncles, and don't ruin my next good thing."

Li Jiafeng knew very well that his relationship with Luo Qihong could not go back to the way it was before, but they could still use each other. He did not believe that Luo Qihong would refuse a big money-making project because of a grudge.

Therefore, he needs an opportunity for a big project now, and he can't be impatient.

Back to Siu On Real Estate Company
Luo Qihong's face looked very bad, he was clearly tricked by the Li father and son, not only did he lose some benefits, but what made him most angry was that he was treated as a fool.

"Li Yulong! Li Jiafeng! You guys are really great. Don't let me catch you." Luo Qihong said gritting his teeth. If the father and son of the Li family were around, he would definitely punch them both.

Luo Qihong calmed down and quietly looked through the previous information about Li Yulong's family. Now he felt that the information was not complete, so he called Su Qishan and asked him to re-investigate the Li Yulong family and make sure it was detailed.
