Cai Guangfa's unique temperament stood out at the Sihai Hotel.

His flashy floral shirt and pointed leather boots instantly revealed that this guy was at least a boss from the South.

When he spoke, the waiters couldn't help but fawn over him.

Because they knew that this was a boss from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

As for why he's the boss, well, that's just how our perspectives are these days.

After checking in, Cai Guangfa stayed at the hotel, where he was chauffeured around in luxury cars whenever he needed to, displaying an extremely extravagant lifestyle.

The Sihai Hotel offers a wide range of services, with bathing facilities, bars, and dance floors being standard amenities.

The owners here also have an incredibly vibrant nightlife; they enjoy drinking and dancing whenever they have free time.

Since Zhao Sihai had taken care of all of Jia Lindao's food and lodging, he naturally wanted to enjoy himself and also look for potential business partners.

Cai Guangfa was also a social butterfly; in just two days, he had already become friends with many guests and would often invite them for drinks.

His generosity naturally caught Jia Lindao's attention.

With the idea that "having more friends means having more options," Jia Lindao began to intentionally or unintentionally get closer to Cai Guangfa.

That night, Cai Guangfa walked into the private bar of the Sihai Hotel, looking somewhat tired.

He casually greeted a few customers and walked towards the bar.

"Give me a whiskey, on the rocks."

"Okay, boss, you don't look too well today."

"Yeah, doing business is so tiring. If they hadn't begged me, I wouldn't have come here!"

"Hey boss, you're a big shot in Hong Kong, you must be talking about a big deal."

"A few hundred million is nothing, just a drop in the ocean. It's nothing in Hong Kong..."

Cai Guangfa had already become familiar with the bartender, and they were chatting casually.

His seemingly unintentional action caused Jia Lindao, who had quietly moved closer, to narrow his eyes.

With no one around, he casually sat down next to Cai Guangfa.

"I'd like a cocktail, please."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cai Guangfa looked up at him with some confusion.

He looked at Jia Lindao with a hint of disdain.

"My friend, you seem like a successful man. What kind of cocktail do you want? A man should drink the strongest liquor and sleep with the most beautiful women! I'll treat you to whiskey. And give this gentleman a glass!"

Without waiting for Jia Lindao's reaction, he called out to the bartender.

The bartender seemed used to it, smiling and nodding as he turned to pour the drinks.

Jia Lin had been secretly observing for the past few days and was not surprised, but his expression showed some dissatisfaction.

Upon seeing this, Cai Guangfa smiled and raised his glass in a gesture of respect.

"Judging from your fluent Mandarin, you're probably from out of town. We're all strangers in a strange land, so it's fate that we meet here."

"I enjoy making friends, but I'm a bit domineering. No offense meant, please don't mind. My name is Cai Guangfa, I'm from Hong Kong..."

Cai Guangfa's words, though domineering, were tinged with sincerity, which suited his image as a successful person.

Jia Lindao also enjoyed it, since it's normal for rich people to be a bit domineering.

He pretended to be relieved and nodded modestly.

"My name is Jia Lindao, a native of the capital. Thank you, Mr. Cai."

"What kind of boss am I? I'm just destined to toil away, destined to count money, but not to spend it..."

Faced with his flattery, Cai Guangfa looked wistful, even somewhat bitter.

Both of them appeared to be using their real names, but in reality, they were using aliases.

It's not uncommon for a person to have two ID cards these days, and most people simply can't tell the difference.

We are all strangers in a foreign land, yet we are fortunate enough to share a drink and talk about heroes.

After a couple of drinks, the two men, each with their own thoughts, found themselves having a very congenial conversation.

Jia Lin smiled and invited, "Brother Cai, it's a bit noisy here. Why don't we find a private room to chat and have some fun?"

"Hehehe, Brother Jia, you seem to have the air of a leader, but I didn't expect you to know about romance. I'll make the arrangements."

Cai Guangfa made a joke, but did not refuse.

"That's all in the past. I've now entered the business world myself, and I still need to learn a lot from Brother Cai," Jia Lin said with a forced smile.

Once they arrived at the private room, the two inevitably engaged in another round of toasts and drinks.

Having drunk about 50% of his fill, Jia Lindao then feigned concern and asked the question.

"Brother Cai, you are incredibly resourceful. I suppose you've come to Tianjin to discuss a major business deal? However, I noticed you seemed downcast earlier; perhaps you're facing some difficulties. I, for one, am not without some ability and might be able to lend a hand..."

Hearing this, Cai Guangfa knew the fish had taken the bait.

He scoffed, "I'm here to collect a debt. Have you heard of Ruyang Foods? They owe my company 200 million... sigh..."

"Is this really true? I wonder if it's Su Wu or Wang Linjun?"

Upon hearing this, Jia Lindao was truly shocked.

He had long felt that Su Wu had an excessive amount of money, and now it seemed the case had been solved.

At this moment, Cai Guangfa seemed completely unguarded and told the story he had made up.

The gist is that Su Wu's family had previously collaborated with his company, investing tens of millions of yuan in Su Wu.

As a result, the investment multiplied fivefold, making Su Wu an instant billionaire.

Of course, Cai Guangfa also made a lot of money.

It was precisely because of this cooperation that he was able to lend Su Wu 400 million yuan for a year, even with Ruyang Foods shares as collateral.

As a result, he only recovered 200 million yuan so far, and that's when he finally found Tianjin.

Although Cai Guangfa's story contained not a single word of truth, it sounded exactly like the truth to Jia Lindao.
