Chapter 52
Just when Wen Ke'er was at a loss for words, Sheng Sinian suddenly stood out from the crowd.
He pointed at the waiter and a Malaysian and repeated in public where they made the deal and what they said.
It turned out that Sheng Sinian accompanied Mrs. Sheng to see the jewelry exhibition, and occasionally took a few photos out of interest. When the two people delivered the goods, Sheng Sinian was changing the film in his camera nearby. Because he arrived first, he heard the whole story.
As soon as I walked out of that corner, before I could find the person in charge of Minsheng, a commotion broke out here.
Sheng Sinian then jumped in to expose the conspiracy, which, while saving Wen Ke'er, also put the Malaysian group in a dilemma. For their own sake, they had to deny it flatly and then used slanderous means to smear Sheng Sinian and Wen Ke'er.
'You two must be having an affair!'
Sheng Sinian had never seen such a scoundrel before, and he was so angry that he couldn't even speak clearly. Fortunately, Wen Ke'er didn't fall into this self-provoking trap and was able to stand up to him for a few words. Later, Mrs. Sheng and Du Xinyi, who had accompanied her mother to the exhibition, realized that Sheng Sinian was the center of the excitement and immediately rushed into the battle without hesitation.
With the Sheng and Du families involved, the other onlookers also began to side with one side. This meant that the incident wouldn't go as smoothly as the Malaysian businessman had planned. Afterward, the police were contacted, and the waiter finally confessed the truth.
After the truth came to light, newspapers of all sizes in Hong Kong reported the incident crazily, forcing those Malaysian businessmen to leave Hong Kong in disgrace.
At this point, the matter was considered to have concluded successfully. However, after Wen Ke'er and Sheng Sinian had developed a friendship through sharing hardships, the two gradually began to interact...
Thinking of this, Weisheng couldn't help but think of Wen Ke'er who has been working so hard recently and wants to expand the cram school.
Although there are many things about this girl that people cannot agree with, she herself is not a perfect person, so why should she always use the standards of a perfect person to force others to meet them?
Thinking about the money Wen Ke'er shared with him during their last meeting, Weisheng thought to himself: I still have some gold on hand, why not exchange it all for buying a two-story storefront to expand the cram school?
Uh, it seems that there is not enough gold.
By the way, the batch of medicinal herbs donated by the kind-hearted businessman named Jin seems to have... No, no, medicinal herbs can be preserved for a long time as long as they are handled properly. They are things that can save lives and cure diseases. It is not worth using them for this.
Got it!
She could consolidate her existing properties, get a mortgage, and borrow money from the bank. The rent plus the profits from the cram school would be enough to pay off the mortgage.
Xiangjiang is very close to Macau. Just as Weisheng had come up with an idea, they arrived in Macau.
.
There are a total of twenty businessmen from Malaysia, and judging from their figures and postures, they all look like martial artists.
Fortunately, Weisheng had space and followed them all the way without letting them discover anything.
He followed them all the way into one of the best hotels in Macau, and heard them talking to the receptionist at the front desk about wanting a presidential suite and the receptionist asking if room 2112 was available. So while they were checking in, Weisheng got on the elevator first.
Weisheng is proficient in all kinds of mechanical manufacturing, maintenance and disassembly, and picking locks to enter houses has never been a difficult task for her.
In just a few steps, Weisheng entered the presidential suite. She first walked quickly around the room and observed the overall environment. Then she stopped at the study where the safe was placed.
Hearing the sound of someone entering, Weisheng adjusted his position and quickly entered the space. After waiting for a while, the two people who had been carrying the jewelry safe all the way came in directly, set the password, and put all the jewelry inside.
After noting down the password, Weisheng went to the kitchen to cook something for himself, and then stayed on the sofa in the living room, reading a book and occasionally glancing at the safe outside the window.
In the middle of the night, Weisheng came out of the space, first put the safe into the space, and then returned to the space to take out all the jewelry from the packaging box.
These jewels were valuable, but they were also stolen goods. As long as she lived in this time and space, she couldn't use them on herself. Moreover, compared to saving them for another time and space, it would be better to use them for something more meaningful in this time and space.
A long time ago, Weisheng heard that the mainland was in a very difficult situation during this period. It was subject to various blockades and suppression by foreign powers, and the foreign exchange reserves on hand were pitifully small.
There are casinos everywhere in Macau, so it is common for people who have lost a lot of money to pawn a few sets of jewelry.
If these jewels were in the hands of these Malaysians, they would be props for commercial fraud, but if they were converted into foreign currency and sent to the mainland... that would be the best destination for them to shine.
Weisheng planned to take revenge on these Malaysian businessmen by spending their money generously. However, after figuring out what to do with the pearls and jade, she decided to pull a prank that would infuriate them to death.
So Weisheng directly placed the Christmas tree that she had bought last Christmas on the terrace on the second floor of the space.
Then hang all the jewelry on the Christmas tree. If there are any that cannot be hung up, use double-sided tape to stick them on first.
After hanging it up, I took two photos with a Polaroid camera. On one, I wrote "Thank you very much, I like it very much" in English; on the other, I wrote in traditional Chinese characters:
'It's so close and so beautiful, let's go to ______ on Sunday'
After writing about the two photos, he placed them both in the safe. Weisheng then put the jewelry back into the packaging.
After leaving the space, he put the safe back into the room.
Weisheng had actually thought before that if she didn't know the safe's combination, she could bring the safe into the space, violently destroy it, and then repair it with welding. Now that she knew it, it saved her a lot of effort.
Weisheng suddenly thought that putting the photos in the safe was not very conspicuous, so he took the photos out of the safe, moved the safe to another corner, and put the two photos back where the safe was originally placed.
By the way, because he was worried about leaving fingerprints, Weisheng wore gloves throughout the whole process.
After finishing this, Weisheng took out the special incense from the space and lit it...
Afraid that he would also be intoxicated by the incense, Weisheng returned to the space after lighting the incense.
Afterwards, he ate a banana, half a dragon fruit, and a handful of mushrooms in the space, and then walked out of the space wearing a gas mask.
He took all the money from these people and put their clothes, shoes and socks into the space. In just a short while, the personal assets of these twenty or so people were reduced to only a pair of underwear.
Anyone who could open such a high-end hotel in Macau at this time was no pushover. Weisheng wasn't worried about the potential trouble this would cause for the hotel, but he still took the Malaysians with him.
They were not taken anywhere else, but thrown into the alley behind the Macau casino.
It looks like he gambled away all his fortune in a Macau casino.
After that, Weisheng took the jewelry to several 24-hour pawnshops and bought a lot of British pounds and US dollars. He then rushed to the pier and boarded the first passenger ship back to Hong Kong and left Macau.
School has been open for several days, but she hasn't reported to school yet because of this business. She has to go to school today.
On the boat, thinking of the jewels that she had sent to the pawn shop in exchange for foreign currency, Weisheng looked in the direction of Macau in a very good mood.
You're not bothered by the trouble of using that batch of jewelry to scam people every day. But from now on, you can continue to hold various exhibitions with the photos.
Light, convenient, and especially safe~
←_←
Weisheng didn't take the jewelry seriously, but when he woke up and found himself and his group lying dead on the street in the alley, wearing only underwear, he looked around in confusion at first, and then ran towards the hotel with a bad feeling.
Even in Macau in 1975, a group of people running wildly on the street wearing only underwear would not only attract attention, but also attract the Macau police.
A group of people who were rushing back to the hotel to check if their jewelry was missing encountered a group of patrol police with law enforcement powers. The outcome was self-evident.
After much trouble, the group of twenty finally returned to the hotel. However, they had only paid for two days' stay, and with the deposit, that was only three days' stay. So, their jewelry, clothes, money, documents, and luggage were all gone. The hotel also forcibly withheld their deposit as room payment, claiming they hadn't checked out on time.
In the end, they were left with nothing but two Polaroid photos.
However, before tracking down the whereabouts of the jewels, they had to find a way to leave Macau first...
***
After Weisheng returned to Hong Kong, she not only moved out of the Repulse Bay mansion, but also asked Xu Zhirui to help her a lot while she was away from school.
Weisheng often asked Xu Zhirui for help, and Xu Zhirui always worked hard and never delayed for a moment.
Weisheng was his boss's only daughter, the eldest daughter of Minsheng. Whether his boss acknowledged it or not, this was an indisputable fact. Furthermore, Weisheng was also providing conservative Traditional Chinese Medicine treatment to Xu Zhirui. Clearly, for both public and private reasons, he had no reason to refuse Weisheng's request.
Weisheng recently asked Xu Zhirui to do two things for her. One was to help her get a loan to buy a storefront, and the other was that she wanted to send the foreign currency in her hands back to the mainland as soon as possible.
After hearing the two things Weisheng instructed, Xu Zhirui looked at Weisheng with a firm look of "as expected".
It turns out that the boss's illness has nothing to do with external trauma, but is inherited through blood.
On the one hand, we have to take out a mortgage to buy a store, and on the other hand, we have to send such a large amount of foreign currency to the mainland. If you had thought about yourself a little more, you could use the money to buy a store first, and we wouldn't have to go through the mortgage process.
I won’t say anything more. To be so sick, she must be his boss’s daughter.
Although Weisheng only asked Xu Zhirui for help, Xu Zhirui still mentioned the matter to Wei Zhensheng. When he heard that Weisheng wanted to buy a two-story storefront and open a cram school in partnership, Wei Zhensheng nodded slightly, thinking that such a partnership would be more profitable than simply collecting rent.
However, when Wei Zhensheng heard that he would rather mortgage all the properties under his name to get a loan to buy a house than send all the foreign currencies he had back to China, he used a generous yet stingy method to "borrow" a sum of money from Weisheng to buy a house.
No interest required, just a monthly principal payment. Consider it my contribution to the mainland.
Xu Zhirui: ...I’m really impressed by these two guys.
╮(╯▽╰)╭
Weisheng didn't keep a cent of the money from selling the jewels at a low price. But she wanted to contribute to the country, but she didn't want to be a noble person who didn't ask for anything in return.
So she asked Xu Zhirui to find a way to spread the word to the mainland. She wanted to use a large sum of foreign currency to purchase a three-story courtyard house in Beijing, the closest area to the imperial capital. She also asked the Zhoushan Town Government to help her look after the Fang family's old house and frequently sweep the Fang family's graves.
That amount of money is more than enough to buy not only a courtyard house with three entrances and a courtyard, but also an entire street in Beijing.
Weisheng knew this, Xu Zhirui knew this, and people on the mainland were also aware of this, so this gift cooperation that seemed like a transaction was quickly reached.
Since Weisheng only had winter and summer vacations, and summer vacation had just ended, if he really had to wait until winter vacation to return to China... Weisheng shook her head. She always felt that it was better to do it sooner rather than later, just like when she wanted to buy a storefront in Hong Kong, delaying would cause problems. So Weisheng directly asked someone to bring the money back to the mainland in advance.
As for when to return to the mainland to look at houses... Weisheng only said that he would first send the property certificate and related written documents to Hong Kong, and we will look at the rest later.
On this side, Weisheng 'divided the spoils' neatly and neatly, and when he was sharpening his knife for the school's scholarships, Lu Shengyan finally found Weisheng.
