Chapter 479 Li Ka-shing's Decision



Upon returning to the company, Shen Dong immediately arranged for his subordinates to send Li Xinxin, Qiu Ti, Ou Yongen, Haitang, and their families to Haojiang.

Since the chaos in Macau last year, Shen Dong discovered that it was a no-man's land, which was very suitable for the development of Tengfei Security Company. So he spent a full 50 million US dollars to win over the officials in Macau and established a branch of Tengfei Security Company there.

To date, Tengfei Security Company's branch has 1,500 employees, stationed in a training ground converted from a garment factory in the suburbs.

Shen Dong left behind a considerable amount of weaponry as a precaution.

There will be absolutely no safety issues for the four women going there.

Meanwhile, after getting the $100 million, the robbers released Zheng Yuchuan.

Under police protection, Zheng Yuchuan returned to his family home and learned that his father had been killed in a car accident. He was devastated and cried uncontrollably.

Li Wenbin had been secretly observing Zheng Tong's wife, Hu Yali, and discovered that she did indeed have some problems.

Especially when Zheng Yuchuan swore to find the murderer and tear him to pieces, Hu Yali's eyes flickered, a hint of unease appeared on her face, and then she quickly lowered her head.

"Damn, Shen Dong's analysis might actually be correct."

Li Wenbin thought to himself.

But why did she do that?

It should be noted that Zheng Yuchuan is the only heir of the Zheng family. Zheng Tong is already so old that it is impossible for him to have a second son. Hu Yali has no reason to do this.

It wasn't until he saw Zheng Tong's second concubine leading in a woman who was not yet thirty years old and a little boy who was four or five years old that Li Wenbin suddenly realized what was going on.

It is estimated that Hu Yali knew that Zheng Tong had an illegitimate son, and in order for her son to inherit the Zheng family business, she used this kidnapping case to kill Zheng Tong.

Soon, a battle over the inheritance broke out in front of Zheng Tong's coffin.

The second and third wives strongly supported the little boy in his fight for the family property with Zheng Yuchuan, and even produced a paternity test result between Zheng Tong and the little boy.

Hu Yali naturally disagreed.

Li Wenbin had absolutely no interest in this inheritance battle.

He has basically determined that Hu Yali is the murderer of Zheng Tong.

After Zheng Tong's funeral is completed, he will take Hu Yali directly to the police station for questioning.

Li Wenbin is not the only smart person in Hong Kong.

After learning that Zheng Tong had an illegitimate child, Li Ka-shing also guessed that Hu Yali was the most likely person to kill Zheng Tong.

"Truly, a woman's heart is the most poisonous."

Li Ka-shing took a sip of tea and said, "This Hu Yali completely disregarded her thirty years of marriage with Zheng Tong. In order to seize the Zheng family's assets, she did not hesitate to hire someone to kill him. It's a pity that Zheng Tong, who had a lifetime of illustrious reputation, died at the hands of his own wife because of his love for his son."

Li Zeju refilled Li Ka-shing's teacup and said, "Dad, are you so sure it was Hu Yali who did it?"

Li Ka-shing confidently stated, "Who else could it be but her?"

Li Zekai said, "Shen Dong, although he made a solemn oath, he might be trying to confuse the issue. For someone like him, making a solemn oath is probably as common as eating a meal."

Li Ka-shing frowned and said, "Zekai, Shen Dong's current businesses are much larger than our Li family's. He's no longer the short mule who used to be involved in the Hung Hing triad. If you look at him with your old eyes, you'll suffer a great loss sooner or later."

Li Zeju nodded and agreed, "Dad is right. After I returned to China, I did a thorough investigation into Shen Dong's rise to power over the years and found that he is an extremely formidable figure. Not only is he unbeatable in the Hong Kong underworld, but his business acumen is also ridiculously strong. He has achieved great success in industries such as taxis, real estate, clothing, food, hotels, and nightclubs. What's most terrifying is his success in the financial field, which is textbook-worthy. He accurately predicted the US stock market crash and made billions of dollars. He also made tens of billions of dollars by shorting gold futures."

"I heard that Shen Dong took advantage of the low stock prices of major companies in the United States to spend more than 10 billion US dollars to buy shares in dozens of companies, covering industries such as technology, internet, consumer goods, healthcare, and beverages."

“I consulted with friends in Wall Street financial institutions, and so far, these stocks have brought Shen Dong at least more than five billion US dollars in profit.”

"Some time ago, Shen Dong went to Yandu, not only to make large-scale investments in the inland areas, but also to establish the Tengfei Charity Foundation with the Education Department and the Red Cross Society, promising to invest 200 million yuan every year to build Hope Primary Schools."

"Shen Dong's purpose in doing this is very clear: to build good relations with the mainland. He has obviously succeeded; the mainland has become his backer."

“Father, if we can’t beat Shen Dong, a super-rich man who has money, means, and connections, then we must become his friend. Otherwise, the Zheng family’s today could very well be our tomorrow.”

Li Zekai said with dissatisfaction, "Brother, you're exaggerating too much. I admit that Shen Dong is indeed powerful, but for him to think he can bring down our Li family is just wishful thinking."

Li Zeju shook his head and said, "As long as the North agrees, Shen Dong will have a hundred ways to kill us. Father, the Americans are unreliable. We'd better follow Shen Dong's example and establish close ties with the mainland. Only in this way can we be invincible in the future."

Li Zekai asked, "What if the economic development policies for the inland areas fail?"

Li Zeju said, "Even if they fail, they will still be the future masters of Hong Kong. We will only lose a little money at most, but we will win the overall battle. Zekai, don't let hatred blind you. In many ways, Shen Dong is far superior to the two of us."

Li Ka-shing sighed and said, "He's better than me too."

Li Zekai said in surprise, "Dad, how can he compare to you?"

Li Ka-shing said, "He started from scratch and built such a fortune in just three years. When I was twenty-eight, I was still working as a laborer at the docks. Zeju is right. If even the Americans can't take down Shen Dong this time, it means he's already in power. I will personally go to him to discuss future business cooperation."

After saying that, Li Ka-shing got up and walked towards his study.

Li Zeju and Li Zekai were shocked to discover that their father's back seemed to be slightly hunched.

......

Inside the office, Shen Dong glanced at Li Jie, who was standing there with his head down and silent, then looked at Du Yuxin, the president of Xia Hua Society, and said, "President Du, you really came very quickly."

Du Yuxin said, "Mr. Shen should know the purpose of my visit, right?"

Shen Dong nodded and said, "I guessed it. Ah Jie, explain it."

Li Jie pursed his lips and said, "When I was in Yandu, my old leader from the military contacted me. He is now the deputy director of the State Security Department of Xia Kingdom."

Shen Dong smiled and asked, "What about Ahui? Is he like you?"

Li Jie said, "I'm not quite sure. Brother Dong, although I'm already an unofficial staff member of the Security Department, I've never thought of harming you."
