Chapter 458: Phone Call from Treasure Island
“No matter how big my family business is, it’s still unclear whether the next generation can keep it. If the next generation is capable, there’s no need for me to take over these container terminals. If they are not capable, it’s useless to take over.”
"So, I might as well let you do it. I can also be free."
Bao Yugang thought it through clearly. With his current assets, having a few more container terminals would not be very meaningful. Instead of coveting these immediate benefits, he might as well give this opportunity to Lin Zehao. This would not only bring them closer, but also make the other party remember a favor to the Bao family.
In this way, a hundred years later, if his daughter encounters any difficulties, given Lin Zehao's personality, he will definitely not stand idly by.
"Uncle Bao, I won't say much to thank you. I'll remember this favor. If you need help in the future, just let me know."
Lin Zehao probably understood Bao Yugang's thoughts and made a promise immediately.
"I feel relieved when you say that. I'll set up a team and play soccer together some other day."
"No problem."
The two chatted for a few more minutes, and then Bao Yugang said goodbye and left.
After Lin Zehao sent Bao Yugang away, he called Langdon without delay. Thanks to the middleman, the communication was very smooth. After some greetings, they arranged a meeting time.
At this time, Guan Zhilin came out of the bedroom and wiped her wet hair while saying in a tender voice: "If you are busy with work, I can go shopping with Ah Hong."
Lin Zehao shook his head and smiled, "There is always work to do, and money to earn. I still have to spend time with my family."
Hearing this, Guan Zhilin's big eyes became watery and she was deeply moved. She was moved that Lin Zehao treated her as a family member.
Although she was the first woman to follow Lin Zehao, she was destined not to become his legal wife in this life. She was satisfied to receive such words.
Just as he finished speaking, the phone on the desk rang. Seeing that Lin Zehao had no intention of answering it, Guan Zhilin, who understood his thoughts, smiled, walked over slowly, stretched out her delicate hand to pick up the phone, and said, "Lei Hou, who are you looking for?"
The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "Sister-in-law?"
"Well, I'm Guan Zhilin, what do you want to talk to Brother Hao about?"
Finally, she added: "Brother Hao is right next to me."
The person on the phone finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Sister-in-law, I am Zhou Chaoxian stationed in Baodao. I have important news to report to Brother Hao. Please convey it to me."
Although Zhou Chaoxian was extremely arrogant to the outside world, he knew the importance of things and knew who he could not afford to offend.
"Brother Ze, you should focus on your work first. You can go shopping with me anytime. I don't have any dramas during this period anyway."
Guan Zhilin put her arm around Lin Zehao's shoulders and acted coquettishly. After being together for such a long time, she knew very well what he was thinking.
Now, because of the support of Lam Ze-hao, Rosamund Kwan has a very important position in the Hong Kong entertainment circle. She is a goddess in the hearts of many people. However, she is very picky about the roles she accepts, which leads to insufficient exposure.
But this is exactly what she wants. She is not short of money anyway. If she is too busy with her career, it will inevitably reduce the time she spends with Lin Zehao, which will be counterproductive.
Lin Zehao nodded helplessly, took the microphone, and said, "Chaoxian, what happened?"
"Brother Hao, Guan Liming suddenly came to visit you today and said he had something to discuss with you."
Who is Guan Liming?
Even when Chen Qili, a veteran figure of the Bamboo Union, was around, he needed to be courteous to others.
Moreover, he has a very special identity. He was once adopted as the principal's godson. Although it is not known how many identities are involved, his situation has become somewhat delicate.
Therefore, during this turmoil of the Bamboo Union Gang, even if the Taiwan government launched a clean-up plan, even if Guan Liming was in Taipei and had no intention of running away, the strong wind and rain could not wet him a little.
Although the Bamboo Union Gang has now completely disappeared and become a thing of the past, Formosa Hutchison has inherited the gang's legacy. With this relationship in place, it is impossible for Lin Zehao to sit idly by when they come knocking on his door.
Otherwise, he would be drowned in the spit of people in the world!
"Where is he now?"
Zhou Chaoxian held his eldest brother's phone in both hands and said respectfully, "Just waiting in the living room. It looks like an urgent matter. What do you think?"
"Put him on the phone."
After Zhou Chaoxian received the order, he quickly walked into the living room, covered the receiver, handed his eldest brother's phone to Guan Liming, and said, "Brother Hao."
Although Guan Liming is old, he looks energetic, and the aura of his past battles can still be vaguely seen. He nodded and took the phone, saying, "Brother Hao, I'm Guan Liming. I have something to ask for your help. I don't know if it's too abrupt."
Facing the other party's somewhat aggressive attitude, Lin Zehao didn't care. He just motioned Guan Zhilin to light a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke and said slowly: "In terms of age, Mr. Guan is an elder, and in terms of seniority, Mr. Guan is a senior. I don't deserve to be called Brother Hao."
"Besides, I am a good friend of Boss Chen. Without his help, Shenghe would not be able to gain a foothold in Taiwan. Besides, now that we have come to this point, it doesn't matter whether it is abrupt or not."
Lin Zehao has always been a person who responds to soft words but not to hard ones. If you dare to put on airs in front of him, you'd better consider your own capabilities!
What do you mean by godson or biological son? Even your father fled in panic, like a stray dog. How can a dog father give birth to a tiger cub?
Because he was watching the speakerphone, Zhou Chaoxian, who was standing next to him, could also hear these words clearly. His heart almost jumped out of his throat!
As a native of Taiwan, Guan Liming knows his status in Taiwan very well.
Although he is so arrogant outside, he is polite in front of this senior executive.
Is it really appropriate for the boss of your own family to mock the other party like this?
"Hahahaha, Shenghe Weilong really lives up to his reputation. If you want to make a name for yourself, you must have this kind of momentum. You definitely deserve to be called Brother Hao by me!"
Guan Liming laughed loudly, paused, and then continued seriously, "Brother Hao, to be honest, the reason I came to see you this time has nothing to do with martial arts, but family matters."
Lin Zehao raised his beautiful eyebrows and said, "Family matters? You can talk about it."
If he remembered correctly, Guan Liming seemed to have only one daughter, probably named Jinghua?
"This is a family scandal, and logically speaking, it shouldn't be made public, but I just can't swallow this anger in my heart..."
Guan Liming took a deep breath and said indignantly: "My daughter is Guan Jinghua, who is in the entertainment industry. Last year, she filmed a drama called "Chu Liuxiang: The Legend of the Crescent Moon", but she was cheated of money and sex by a scumbag..."
"If it was a legitimate breakup, I would have said nothing and would only blame my daughter for being blind. But he was playing both sides and hiding the fact that he had a lover!"
"You played with my daughter, spent my money, and now you put on your pants, pat your butt and want to leave. How can this be possible!"
"Although I can handle the situation in Formosa and prevent him from continuing to develop here, he has now returned to Hong Kong Island and I am unable to do anything about him..."
Lin Zehao didn't say anything, just listened silently. He sighed and said with trembling lips: "I heard that Zheng Shaoqiu is going to get married soon. This beast in human clothing doesn't deserve to have a marriage!"
"I hope Brother Hao can come forward and teach this guy a lesson. It would be best if he could completely break up with his current fiancée and ruin his reputation!"
"Of course, I am also a man of the underworld, and I know the rules of the underworld. I own a piece of land at the intersection of Nanjing East Road and Dunhua North Road in Taipei, covering an area of more than 100,000 square meters."
"As long as Brother Hao agrees, I will offer this piece of land to you with both hands!"
The market price of a piece of land covering 100,000 square meters in Taipei is definitely over 100 million!
In order to vent his daughter's anger, Guan Liming absolutely spent a huge amount of money!
Such a reward can no longer be described as generous!
Lin Zehao did not show any excitement, but said calmly: "Mr. Guan, this is not just a question of remuneration. As the saying goes, it is better to destroy a temple than to break up a marriage. If I intervene rashly, some people who don't know the inside story will talk nonsense."
"What does Brother Hao mean?" Guan Liming knew that he must have a plan, so he asked.
"I have received a favor from the Bamboo Union. Since you have come to me for help, I cannot just stand by and watch."
"How about this, you ask your daughter to mobilize public opinion first and prove that she is the victim. I will handle the media in Hong Kong Island, and leave the rest to me."
Even if there was no reward, Lin Zehao could not refuse. After all, he had accepted a favor from the Bamboo Union Gang before, and he actually didn't like Zheng Shaoqiu.
Let’s put aside whether it is shameful to rely on women to get to the top, but kicking Shen Dianxia aside after using her is truly heartless and despicable.
It just so happens that Guan Liming has come to him for help, so it would be a good idea to get rid of this villain at the same time.
"Thank you, Brother Hao. I will sort out the relevant documents for the land and send someone to deliver it to you."
Guan Liming finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that for someone of Lin Zehao's status, a word from him was a sure thing, and as long as he could agree to something, it would basically be done.
After the discussion, Zhou Chaoxian, who was standing on the side and listening, had a completely new understanding of his own boss!
I thought Brother Hao was just strong, but lacked some foundation and confidence compared to some of the older generation of famous guys. But now it seems that Brother Hao's value is still rising!
After hanging up the phone, Lin Zehao shrugged helplessly at Guan Zhilin and said, "Sorry, Ah Lin, I'm in trouble again. I guess I'll have to go shopping with you another day."
Guan Zhilin naturally understood and said with a smile: "It's okay. Compared with shopping and work, the latter is naturally more important."
Lin Zehao said: "It is expected that Hutchison Taikoo Port will open at the end of the year. At that time, I will give you a top-level black gold card. As long as it is something in the mall, you can use the card to pay for it at will. There is no limit."
He did have some different feelings for the woman who had followed him the earliest, and that was human nature.
As the atmosphere gradually heated up, the two stood up and walked into the bedroom.
The plot lasts for an hour, and there are too many details to go into here.
……
Tsim Sha Tsui, Hutchison Restaurant.
On the third floor, in box 888.
Liu Rongju and his trusted younger brother sat on a Huanghuali stool. They looked calm, but they were more or less panicked inside.
"You said that our Lian Gong Le has basically no intersection with He Sheng He, so why would Wei Long Hao suddenly ask me to meet him?"
A trusted younger brother at the side consoled him, "Brother Daju, Wei Longhao has always had a bottom line and abides by the rules. Maybe it's a good thing that's going to happen to him."
"What's more, I heard that Weilonghao has close ties with the mainland and has invested in and is involved in various industries. We transport things back and forth through Guangzhou, and I heard that Hutchison has many projects there."
Hearing this, Liu Rongjiu nodded and felt a little relieved.
At this time, the door of the box opened, and Lin Zehao, wearing a black hand-cut and embroidered suit, walked in slowly, followed by A Mai and Luo Tianhong.
"Thank you, Brother Daju, for giving me face. I'm really sorry for arriving so early."
Lin Zehao was very polite and had a smiling face.
Liu Rongju may not be well-known, but he holds a special status in the underworld of Hong Kong Island. Liu Fu, the first Chief Chinese Detective of Hong Kong Island, is his uncle. He used to hang out with Deng Bowen, the leader of the Hongmen Yangcheng Zhigongtang, and later founded Luen Gong Le, which mainly engaged in smuggling business at waterways and docks. In the early years, it was called the "Dock Gang".
He once cooperated with the Huo family and transported a lot of things to the mainland during those years when supplies were scarce. He can be considered a patriot.
With such status and position, he was able to thrive in Hong Kong Island and was respected by both the black and white worlds.
However, regardless of identity or status, Lin Zehao has always respected patriots. In addition, the other party is a senior in the underworld, so it is appropriate to call him Brother Da Ju.
"Brother Hao, I don't deserve it. You are the real big brother. Who in the world doesn't know the importance of Sheng and Weilong?"
Liu Rongjiu quickly stood up and shook hands, looking very humble, but from the way his mouth was grinning from ear to ear, you could tell how pleased he was.
After all, not everyone is qualified to be called "brother" by Wei Longhao!
"Brother Hao, I wonder if you have any instructions for me this time?"
After both parties sat down, Liu Rongju was very cautious in his words.
Lin Zehao handed him a cigarette and said with a smile: "It's not a big deal, it's just a little complicated to explain."
"This matter involves your nephew in the entertainment industry, Deng Guangrong."
Hearing this, Liu Rongju's hands shook subconsciously, and the cigarette in his hand fell to the ground. He quickly bent down to pick it up and explained anxiously: "Brother Hao, A Rong was spoiled by my boss. He is simply an ignorant young man."
"If he has offended you in any way, I will break his legs to make amends to you with just one word. I just hope you will forgive me and let him go..."
Liu Rongjiu was very humble and spoke in a very sincere tone, but it made Lin Zehao feel a little amused.
He waved his hand to signal the other party to calm down, and said, "Things are not what you think. It's mainly about his adopted sister."
Afterwards, Lin Zehao briefly recounted the whole story. Liu Rongju finally felt relieved and suddenly realized.
