Long Qingqun said softly, "I have some money that I need to sell as soon as possible. Mr. Shen, you should understand what I mean, right?"
Shen Dong smiled and said, "I'm not interested in where the money comes from. If Mr. Long is willing to build these four office buildings for me, I would be more than happy to do so."
Long Qingqun slapped his thigh and said happily, "Then it's settled. The residential area and office building will be built together, and we'll try to complete them all within a year."
Shen Dong interjected, "President Long, let's be cautious from the start. I will have someone specifically oversee the project's quality and the use of funds. I hope you can understand."
Long Qingqun said, "That's only right. Mr. Shen, I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
Shen Dong raised his glass, clinked it against his, and said, "It's a pleasure doing business with you."
After finishing their business, Long Qingqun didn't linger at the Bihai Nightclub but left immediately.
After seeing Long Qingqun off, Shen Dong said softly, "Ahua, there are so many beautiful women in the nightclub, why do you think that lecherous Long Qingqun was in such a hurry to leave?"
Ahua thought for a moment and said, "He doesn't trust us."
Shen Dong said, "We have already reached a cooperation agreement, so why does he still not trust us?"
Ahua finally understood what Shen Dong meant and said, "You mean he's hostile towards us?"
Shen Dong said with a playful tone, "You think there's such a good thing in the world as someone paying for our office building?"
Ahua frowned and asked, "What does he want to do?"
Shen Dong said, "Unsolicited kindness is either a sign of ulterior motives or theft. Perhaps they are thinking about how to take me over in one fell swoop, so that the house will be theirs."
Ahua sneered, "If he really has this intention, we'll kill him first."
Shen Dong said quietly, "I'm not interested in his company, but I'm very interested in his huge design and engineering teams. That's exactly what we lack most when we want to do real estate."
For a long time, the Hong Kong Island real estate industry has been dominated by super real estate companies represented by Li Ka-shing.
Qualified construction companies were either acquired by them or partnered with them.
Therefore, even if you have money and land, it's useless because no one will build for you.
This is the main reason why Shen Dong had to choose to cooperate with a real estate company.
On the other side, Long Qingqun was also talking to Pang Yan about Shen Dong.
"Ah Yan, what kind of person do you think Shen Dong is?"
Pang Yan thought for a moment and said, "He is shrewd, intelligent, and extremely ambitious. With so much land, he obviously wants to enter the real estate industry, but unfortunately he doesn't have the connections, so he can only cooperate with us."
Long Qingqun said disdainfully, "It's ridiculous that an uneducated short mule who only knows how to fight and kill dares to dream of rising to the top in the business world."
Pang Yan asked, "Brother Long, since you don't think highly of him, why did you still cooperate with him and even lend him money to build an office building?"
Long Qingqun said smugly, "Being close to the water tower means getting the moon first. A short mule like Shen Dong has countless enemies, and he'll be finished sooner or later. When that time comes, we'll get a few IOUs and claim that Shen Dong borrowed money from us and hasn't paid it back. These buildings will naturally be back in our hands. Hehe, this is called casting a long line to catch a big fish."
Upon hearing this, Pang Yan smiled broadly and said, "Brother Long is wise."
If Shen Dong knew that Long Qingqun had this idea, he would probably laugh himself to death.
Even underworld bosses like Han Chen and Wang Bao couldn't kill him, yet a real estate tycoon dared to think he could? He was simply overestimating himself.
After seeing Pang Yan off, Shen Dong had a few drinks with Ahua and Asheng at the Bihai Nightclub.
Just as he was about to leave, he received a call from Chen Yao.
At noon today, Carmes dutifully handed over a bearer check for 25 million US dollars to Ahua.
Ahua withdrew the money and transferred it to an account that Song Zihao had opened at Citibank.
These 25 million US dollars are, after all, ill-gotten gains and need to be laundered before they can be used with peace of mind.
Carmes was swindled out of 25 million to help Jiang Tiansheng, how could he let it go so easily?
However, he didn't dare to cause trouble for Shen Dong, so he could only vent his anger on Jiang Tiansheng.
Jiang Tiansheng was unwilling to compensate him for his losses, so their relationship plummeted to a freezing point, turning them into bitter enemies.
Shen Dong thought Chen Yao had come to interrogate him, but to his surprise, Chen Yao didn't even mention the matter.
"Ah Dong, tonight at 11 p.m., the three major triads will be negotiating with backbone. Mr. Chiang hopes you can go and boost the morale of our Hung Hing."
Shen Dong had long anticipated that the three major triads would eventually negotiate, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.
"Brother Yao, is Tung Sing willing to suffer this loss? Don't forget, their leader, Camel, was blown to smithereens by Hong Wen."
“Tung Sing has suffered countless casualties in the past few days, and the police are cracking down on them. If this continues, Tung Sing will be finished, so they have no choice.”
How is the territory divided?
“Apart from the Yau Tsim Mong district, we can give up all other sites. This is a consensus reached after discussions between us and Hung Tai.”
"Understood. I will definitely arrive with my men before eleven o'clock."
After hanging up the phone, Shen Dong frowned.
The three major gangs went to war, but Shen Dong never participated in it from beginning to end.
Now that the fighting is over and negotiations are underway, Jiang Tiansheng wants him to go there to bolster his own position.
This is really strange.
It's worth noting that Chan Ho-nam and Tai Fei performed exceptionally well in this battle, earning them considerable fame.
Now almost everyone in the underworld knows that besides Shen Dong, Chen Haonan and Da Fei are also two formidable fighters in Hung Hing.
With the addition of the Crown Prince, the three of them are enough; there is absolutely no need for Shen Dong to intervene.
What does Jiang Tiansheng mean?
Did he want to kill me?
Or is this negotiation related to me?
After pondering for a moment, Shen Dong said, "Ahua, have Ahui take fifty brothers to the 'Honest and Resolute' restaurant. I have a feeling that something is not right about this."
Ahua said, "Brother Dong, I'll go with you too."
Shen Dong shook his head and said, "No. You are a leader of Hung Hing. What would it look like to go there without Mr. Chiang's orders? Don't worry, nothing will happen."
Ahui said, "Let Xiahou and Ashu go too."
Shen Dong said, "Okay."
Soon, Shen Dong led five top experts—Li Jie, Tian Yangsheng, Xiahou Wu, Feng Yuxiu, and Chen Hui—along with fifty core brothers, to a place not far from the Youguqi Restaurant.
When Jiang Tiansheng's car appeared, they immediately followed it.
This is an unspoken rule among Hung Hing and other triad societies.
The main purpose is to showcase the power and prestige of the dragon head.
At this time, the area in front of the Youguqi Restaurant was already packed with people.
The three major gangs all brought a lot of underlings.
Just in case, the police even sent dozens of armed officers to maintain order.
If the three gangs fail to reach an agreement and start fighting, the police will immediately go to stop them.
With a gun in hand, no matter how many thugs there are, it's useless.
