The next morning, Bao Wenhai indeed had Van Gogh's painting delivered to him.
Lin Dong opened the packaging of the oil painting and took a closer look.
Holy crap, it's Van Gogh's masterpiece: "Wheat Field with the Reaper"!
It is worth noting that since Van Gogh's death, the market price of his paintings that have been passed down to posterity has been increasing.
Lin Dong recalls that six years ago, Van Gogh's "Portrait of Dr. Gachet" sold for a high price of $82 million.
And this painting, "Wheat Field with Reapers," definitely deserves a place in the Top 15 of Van Gogh's masterpieces.
I never expected that old man Bao Wenhai would have such a precious collection of world-famous paintings at home, and he was actually willing to give them away.
After admiring the painting for a while, Lin Dong asked the nanny to hang it up.
The painting was hung on the front wall of the living room.
In the future, Lin Dong will sit here and chat with guests over tea.
Occasionally looking up at a world-famous painting filled with gold is indeed a rare treat.
The kind of pleasures enjoyed by the wealthy is something most people don't understand.
......
Since Bao Wenhai visited and delivered the painting the next day, Villa No. 66 has never been quiet.
In the past two or three days, people have been coming to visit and give gifts in an endless stream.
Each visitor brought a valuable gift.
This also included antiques and jadeite worth over 100 million yuan, gifted by two wealthy members of the Li family.
During this period, Lin Dong's black money harvest reached a new level.
In just three days, his black gold system balance increased by more than 900 billion.
Lin's total wealth reached an unprecedented 35.8 million yuan.
There was no way around it; the people who came to visit were all super-rich.
Deep Water Bay Road, this area of Hong Kong's wealthiest people, is indeed overflowing with riches.
............................................
That day, Lin Dong had just seen off a group of wealthy and important guests when Zhang Ziqiang arrived with more than 20 of his close henchmen.
After instructing his henchmen to guard the main gate, Zhang Ziqiang walked straight into the living room.
"Ziqiang is here? Please have a seat. I've been quite busy with social engagements lately and haven't had time to leave the city."
Seeing that the Wan Chai tycoon was carrying an exquisite gift bag, Lin Dong smiled:
"Look at you, we're all family here, why did you bring a gift?"
Zhang Ziqiang quickly presented the gift:
"Boss, this is a gift from Ah Huan and me to celebrate your new home: a top-quality mutton-fat white jade Guanyin statue."
Lin Dong casually accepted the gift and pulled him to sit down on the sofa: "Ziqiang, don't be so polite when you come to my house in the future. I don't need the money."
"It's never wrong to be polite. Since we entered Wan Chai, the Dragon Gang has been making more and more money. By the way, when is the boss going to take a look at the gang's accounts and treasury?"
Zhang Ziqiang said respectfully.
"No need, I trust you. Just send my share over at the end of the year."
With Lin Dong's current capabilities, checking the accounts would be redundant.
First, his subordinates are 100% loyal; no one can deceive him, their boss.
Secondly, Lin Dong had already scanned Zhang Ziqiang with his Black Gold Eye when he entered the room.
In less than half a month, Zhang Ziqiang's Hong Kong Island Dragon Gang earned HK$643 million in illicit funds.
It's clear that Wan Chai is a very lucrative area.
Of course, Lin Dong wouldn't let this opportunity to convert black money into cash slip by.
In the blink of an eye, the system's wealth balance increased by more than 600 million, reaching 78.8 million.
Even Lin Dong himself was somewhat numb to this incredible speed at which he made money.
"Ziqiang, how are the preparations going in Haojiang?"
The two sat down according to their status as host and host, and Lin Dong asked casually.
"Boss, everything is almost ready. The casino will officially open bidding tomorrow at 2 PM."
"Hmm, are you confident?"
"Yes, we've done the evaluation. This time, by joining forces with Xingyi United, our bid price will most likely be able to completely beat Old Man Ou."
"We must not be careless; be careful that the other party doesn't use any tricks."
"Don't worry, boss. The bidding for the license is very fair. In addition to the overall strength of the bidders, it mainly depends on who offers the highest price in the end."
"That's good. By the way, is everything alright with Ah Huan?"
"Fights and stabbings are unavoidable. Things have been a bit chaotic in Macau lately, and more than 20 of our brothers have been injured..."
"Oh? No wonder, the head of the Public Security Department of the Haojiang Police Station is coming over today."
Lin Dong smiled knowingly, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth.
"Chief of the Public Security Department of the Haojiang Police Station? Chung Wai-tak?" Cheung Tsz-keung asked in surprise.
“That’s right, they should be arriving soon.” Lin Dong raised his hand and looked at his watch.
At that moment, the sounds of brakes and car doors opening and closing came from outside the villa's courtyard gate.
A moment later, a member of the Dragon Gang guarding the gate rushed in:
"Boss, a few people have come outside. They say they're from the Hou Kong Police Station and the Hong Kong Island Police Station."
Seeing Lin Dong nod, Zhang Ziqiang understood and said, "Let them in."
"Yes, boss!"
......
Soon, five young men in suits escorted three middle-aged men into the living room.
The person leading the group was none other than Ling Qianyi, a loyal follower and acquaintance of Lin Dong.
"Old Yi is here? Come and sit down."
Seeing the group enter the room, Lin Dong did not stand up, but simply waved casually.
His arrogance caused the two middle-aged men following behind Ling Qianyi to frown.
This Mr. Lin has such a big ego!
"You guys stay here and guard the door."
