"Bang"

Li Ka-shing, abandoning his usual gentle demeanor, slammed his fist on the table and said sternly, "Just now, Jun Muraishi, the vice president of the Mitsui Group, lodged a strong protest with me, saying that you and Shen Dong conspired to provide false information to Yosuke Mitsui, leading to Yosuke Mitsui's death at the hands of Daichi Fujitani. I believe they are absolutely certain that they are not mistaken about this matter. Ah Ji, I need an answer from you now."

Li Aji said, "This was Shen Dong's idea, and his purpose was to get money from Fujitani Daichi."

Li Zekai sneered, "Aji, how much money did Fujitani Daichi give you to betray our Li family?"

Li Aji pursed his lips and said, "It's two hundred million US dollars."

Li Zeju and Li Zekai couldn't help but gasp.

Fujitani Daichi is really ruthless; he actually offered two hundred million US dollars for a piece of fake news.

Li Ka-shing said, "You tell me the whole story from beginning to end."

Now that things had come to this, Li Aji dared not hide anything and recounted how Shen Dong had asked him to partner with him to swindle money.

After listening, Li Zeju asked, "You're talking about the dock, so why did Mitsui Yosuke die in the park?"

Li Aji said, "The men who went to the dock were Mitsui Yosuke's men. I suspect that the purpose of Fujitani Daichi having us pass on this false message was not to kill Mitsui Yosuke, but to eliminate his henchmen and relieve the pressure when we went to the park for the transaction."

Li Zeju asked, "Did Shen Dong interfere in the killing of Mitsui Yosuke?"

Li Aji shook his head and said, "Definitely not."

Li Zeju asked, "Why?"

Li Aji said, "Fujitani Daichi can't afford the price. Shen Dong might spread a false message for 300 million US dollars, but he would never kill Mitsui Yosuke for that amount of money, because doing so would provoke retaliation from the Mitsui Group."

Li Zeju asked, "Where were you when Fujitani Daichi and Mitsui Yosuke were fighting in the park?"

Li Aji said, "I knew this was a trap, and Mitsui Yosuke was bound to suffer a crushing defeat, so after telling him the news, I went to hide in a bar."

Li Ka-shing said calmly, "You're quite clever. Ah Ji, now that the Mitsui Group is causing me trouble, what do you expect me to do?"

Li Aji had already thought about this issue and said, "Sir Li, Fujitani Daichi was indeed at that dock at the time. Shen Dong and I did not lie to him. It's just that Mitsui Yosuke's men were not very capable and were wiped out by Fujitani Daichi."

Hehehe

Li Ka-shing was so angry he laughed. He said, "It seems you and Shen Dong had already discussed this issue before deciding to rip off Mitsui Yokai, right?"

Li Aji kept her head down and didn't say anything.

Li Ka-shing sighed and said, "Go back now."

Li Aji took out a check from his pocket, placed it on the table, and said, "Sir Li, this is one hundred million US dollars. If you need anything in the future, just give it to me, and I will definitely help you complete it."

Li Ka-shing gave him a cold look and said nothing.

After Li Aji left, Li Ka-shing picked up the check for one hundred million US dollars and said calmly, "Aji is really generous, daring to do business with me."

Li Zekai frowned and said, "Two hundred million US dollars, but they only gave us one hundred million US dollars. What does that mean?"

Li Zeju said, "He means that we will have an equal cooperative relationship from now on. Father, Aji has a rebellious streak, so we can't use it anymore."

Li Ka-shing said, "Raising a tiger will only bring trouble. These short mules are all opportunistic and treacherous; they cannot be trusted."

A sharp glint flashed in Li Zekai's eyes as he said, "If he dares to disobey, then we'll teach him a lesson."

Li Zeju asked, "How do we knock it?"

Li Zekai said, "The internal workings of He Liansheng have never been a monolithic entity. We can support a regional leader to handle the matter with Aji."

Li Zeju smiled wryly and said, "Zekai, you underestimate Li Aji. After taking office, he carried out sweeping reforms at Heliansheng. In order to win over the heads of various regions, Li Aji did not hesitate to share most of the profits of the Macau casino with them. Now, everyone at Heliansheng follows Li Aji's lead. If anyone dares to oppose him, Li Aji doesn't even need to lift a finger; others will take care of him."

Li Zekai said in surprise, "Damn, no wonder this guy dared to rebel. It turns out he has completely controlled He Liansheng."

Li Ka-shing said in a deep voice, "Zeju, Zekai, you need to be more polite to Li Aji from now on. You can't treat him like the nobody he used to be."

Li Zekai said, "Father, are we just going to let him continue to be so arrogant?"

Li Ka-shing said, "Li Aji doesn't dare to be arrogant towards our Li family. Remember, our status is different from Li Aji's. Unless there is a huge conflict of interest, try not to clash with him. Even a cornered dog will bite, let alone him, the boss of Lian Sheng. Once Li Aji is pushed too far, who knows what he might do?"

Li Zeju nodded and said, "Father is right."

Li Zekai said angrily, "Li Aji is a real bastard."

......

The scoundrel Li Zekai was referring to, Li Aji, sat in the car, his brows furrowed, deep in thought.

Li Aji had long harbored a desire to rebel against the Li family, the head of the four powerful clans.

Aside from ambition, the main reason was that Li Aji did not receive respect from the Li family.

During his interactions with Li Ka-shing and his son, Li Aji always felt that they looked at him as if he were a dog.

Even though Li Ka-shing tried his best to hide it, the perceptive Li Aji could still sense his disdain.

The previous transfer of the two plots of land resulted in Li Aji paying Shen Dong 200 million yuan in breach of contract penalties.

The agreement stipulated that the Li family would pay 2 billion, but in reality, they only gave him 500 million.

In other words, Li Aji only received 300 million yuan from two plots of land worth more than 3 billion yuan, which is practically extortion.

If Li Aji had known that Shen Dong could defeat the American conglomerate and the four major families, he would never have done such a stupid thing.

Tonight, Li Aji left Li Ka-shing a staggering $100 million, which was his way of telling him that he would cooperate with him on an equal footing from now on.

Shen Dong is truly amazing!

Joining gangs will never lead to a future; only by doing legitimate business can you gain social recognition and respect.

Li Aji lit a cigarette, his mind beginning to contemplate how to lead He Liansheng through a complete transformation.

......

The following afternoon, in the president's office of Tengfei Group

Looking at the Japanese man in front of him, who was only 1.65 meters tall and had an extremely ugly appearance, Shen Dong found it hard to associate him with the vice president of the Mitsui Group.

However, the more someone is like this, the less Shen Dong dares to underestimate them.

Because to succeed, they have to put in at least ten times the effort and sweat of ordinary people.

Murashi Jun said, "Mr. Chen, I rushed to Hong Kong Island overnight mainly to investigate the deaths of Mitsui Yosuke and his son."

Shen Dong took a sip of tea and asked, "Is Mr. Mitsui really dead?"

Muraishi Jun said, "I have already gone to the Hong Kong Island Police Station to identify him. Although the body was blown black, it was still possible to recognize that the person was indeed Mr. Mitsui Yosuke."
