Chapter 178 Sweeping Through the Capital, Taking Over the Courtyard Houses



Let's do it!

The next morning, after breakfast, Lin Dong led Lao Niu and Feng Zi on a tour of the capital.

Of course, he wasn't just wandering around the streets aimlessly.

Instead, they deliberately went to places like stock exchange halls, Wangfujing, and antique and calligraphy auction houses.

These are the places where the wealthy congregate.

Nowadays, Lin Dong's appetite has grown larger and larger; black gold worth less than 100 million no longer arouses his interest.

Conversely, those super-rich individuals who possess hundreds of millions or billions of dollars are unlikely to have any less impressive connections with the five individuals they associate with.

Scanning one leads to the discovery of five others.

In just one morning, Lin Dong confirmed more than 30 people involved in illicit activities.

Their gold hoarding sites were mostly located within the capital city.

With a detailed list and specific locations of the hidden gold, the afternoon's harvesting operation became much easier.

The three of them, under the guise of sightseeing, hired a taxi and traveled almost half of Beijing in half a day.

The two people in the car, Lao Niu and Feng Zi, had no idea what Lin Dong was up to, so they could only follow along dumbly.

They traveled by car through the streets and alleys, and when they encountered places that the car could not go in, they got out and walked.

Calling it a trip is an understatement; it's more like a cursory glance.

After all that fuss for most of the day, I'm incredibly bored.

The three of them did not return to the hotel until 9 p.m.

Back at the hotel, we asked the front desk to bring some food to our room. After eating quickly, we all went to bed.

After taking a shower and getting into bed, Lin Dong once again took stock of his loot from today's raid:

This operation targeted 33 individuals involved in illicit activities, resulting in the conversion of a total of 10.236 billion yuan in illicit funds.

The system's wealth balance has once again exceeded 40 billion, reaching 41.1516 billion yuan.

......

Sweeping away illicit funds on the streets—this method may be a bit clumsy, but in Beijing, where the rich are as common as dogs, it's incredibly effective.

Having learned from his first experience, Lin Dong followed the same method and continued the process the next day.

However, in order to improve the hit rate, Lin Dong called Ling Xiaoxiao and Ling Feifan to accompany him.

Through their connections, they make special trips to places frequented by top families and the super-rich.

For example: Jingzhao Club, Weiming Tea House, Hongbo Supercar... as well as several of the most famous top-tier clubs in Beijing's elite circles.

I must say, this round of shopping was much more profitable than yesterday.

By 4 p.m., Lin Dong had scanned more than 50 individuals associated with the black gold scandal.

There are confirmed hundreds of gold storage sites in Beijing, with a total value of illicit gold reaching an astonishing 83.549 billion yuan.

There are so many super-rich people in Beijing!

I estimate that the group I met today consists of influential figures in Beijing's social circles.

After all, most of the people in the Ling siblings' social circle are either rich or noble, and there are very few commoners.

Having noted down all the addresses of the hidden gold, Lin Dong wasn't in a hurry. He happily followed the Ling siblings to see several courtyard houses they had bought.

Ling Feifan was not at all stingy with the 20 courtyard houses that Lin Dong lost to; they were all high-quality units within the Third Ring Road.

The scions of top-tier families have a different kind of demeanor; even when they lose, they do so with great dignity.

In the mid-to-late 1990s, the real estate industry was just beginning to take off, and the Chinese people did not pay much attention to courtyard houses.

So, Lin Dong really hit the jackpot with this leak.

These 20 high-quality courtyard houses, if left untouched for another ten or twenty years, will become assets worth over 10 billion yuan.

................................................

After seeing the courtyard house, Lin Dong felt even better.

With a wave of his hand, he generously invited everyone to the famous Mingzhu Seafood Restaurant in the capital to taste authentic seafood.

Mingzhu Seafood Restaurant is located east of Di'anmen and is currently the top seafood restaurant in Beijing, known for its excellent dishes, high-end atmosphere, and expensive prices.

In the 1990s, there was a saying in Beijing: "three knives and one axe."

These refer to the four most expensive places to eat in Beijing, places that only the very wealthy dare not easily enter.

Because once inside, you'll have to spend money like water, every cut will draw blood, and every axe stroke will expose the bone!

The restaurant that was first to be cut was Mingzhu Seafood Restaurant.

It is said that this restaurant has many famous chefs, and all the seafood is freshly air-freighted to the restaurant daily from the south or overseas.

Rich people eat fresh food; it's about style and prestige.

The places that ordinary people dare not go to best showcase their superior status and position...

There must be quite a few illicit rich people in places like this, right?

It's a win-win situation: you can show off by treating people to dinner, and you can also make a quick buck. Haha...

Sure enough, a single meal at Mingzhu Seafood Restaurant cost Lin Dong a whopping 80,000 yuan.

However, compared to the unexpected gains from strolling around here, it's nothing at all.

During the two-plus hours of the meal, Lin Dong roughly identified more than a dozen heavyweight figures in the underworld at the restaurant.

The amount of black gold awaiting conversion and harvesting unexpectedly increased by 3.728 billion.

What a huge harvest today!

Lin Dong was really looking forward to how pleasant the system's "ding-ding-ding" sound would be when he swept through the black gold in the capital tomorrow.

......

The next day, Lin Dong got up at 6 o'clock.

After breakfast, I rode a Suzuki Daozai motorcycle that I had borrowed from the Ling family.

To speed things up, he didn't bring anyone with him today for this incredible black gold conversion.

With a Suzuki Knife in hand, what street or alley can't you go?

I have hundreds of gold-hidden locations in my mind, and I must harvest them all today.

To this end, Lin Dong even bought a map of Beijing in advance and marked it overnight according to the route sequence.
