Chapter 672 Northern Messenger
Chapter 672 Northern Messenger
In the 23rd floor of the Chi Yu Building in Tsim Sha Tsui, at the Pearl, several men were sitting opposite each other in the office of the chairman of Tianqiao Finance Company.
Sitting in the main seat was a short old man with a head full of gray hair, looking a little old, but with only a few wrinkles on his face, he looked much younger.
Opposite him sat a burly man in a suit, more than two meters tall, with a simple and honest face, and seemed to be listening to the lecture of the person sitting in the main seat.
On the sofas around them sat a few ruffians. Although they were all dressed in suits, they could not hide the rebellious look on their faces.
"Lian Hu, I asked you to run this financial company, not to let you lend money at high interest rates like gangsters. You want to invest, do you understand? What's the point of lending money to ordinary people? We want to lend to factory owners! Not ordinary people!" Lian Cuihua, also known as Tianqiao Little Ear, looked at her brother with a silly smile on his face and felt really angry!
After escaping from Peking, they had been living in Mingzhu. Before, they were indeed mixed up in society. But after meeting Zhao Cheng again, who showed them the way forward, they had changed their direction.
And because they had done some things for Zhao Cheng, Zhao Cheng had given them a lot of advice over the years. And they also learned from the Mingzhu Huo family and did a lot for the north.
So over the years, the strength of the Lian brothers has grown, and they soon became an emerging gang that can compete with old gangs such as Mingzhu Hongxing, Dongxing, and Heliansheng.
After the gang grew to a certain size, the brothers followed the plan that Zhao Cheng had provided them and began to transform.
The first step was to establish eight branches of the gang, each of which was managed by local brothers in Mingzhu. The older brothers who had followed Xiao Erduo to Mingzhu gradually retreated behind the scenes, cultivating some trusted subordinates to serve as supervisors of the gang.
These inspectors are all the most trusted among the trusted. Even if they do nothing every month, they will receive a salary of 10,000 yuan. All their family members have jobs, each family member has a house, the children go to schools funded by the Lian family, and when they are sick, they go to hospitals invested by the Lian family.
Some of these people lurk around the leaders of various halls, while others work in groups of three or five and constantly shuttle around the gang's territory to collect information. It is even possible that a fish ball vendor at the entrance of the gang's grounds is a monitor.
Those who are sitting here now are the leaders of the eight gangs, including Big D from Tsuen Wan, Han Bin from Kwai Tsing, Dinosaur from Tuen Mun, Lian Haolong from Kwun Tong, Liang Kun from Causeway Bay, Gao Jin from Tsim Sha Tsui, Crow from Yuen Long, and Situ Haonan from Sha Tin!
These people were all raised by Shang Xiaoerduo from orphans or street children according to Zhao Cheng's instructions. The Lian brothers are also directors of the largest orphanage in Mingzhu!
Over the years, there are basically no orphans on the Mingzhu market. This is all thanks to Xiao Erduo. Many of them have been trained since childhood and are much more loyal.
Lian Hu, on the other hand, was made the manager of a financial company by Xiao Erduo. This financial company had both loan and investment businesses!
And this is just a medium for Xiao Erduo to embezzle Mingzhu Manufacturing! He also has an investment bank, but that cannot be involved with the black, and he will be the chairman.
Now, Xiao Erduo has already moved several factories that were previously used to pay off debts to the Special Zone, grabbing land! A two-acre factory has amassed ten acres, and a five-acre factory has amassed twenty acres!
In this way, Xiao Erduo acquired a park of over a thousand acres in the Special Economic Zone. Various factories, hotels, residential buildings, commercial buildings, and more are currently under construction!
He came today because the finance company hasn't delivered any new factories for three months! This made him very annoyed.
After arriving, they found out that the people below did not strictly follow the orders, so Xiao Erduo called the eight hall masters over again!
"Tell me, what's wrong with you? Why don't you follow the established plan?" After scolding Lian Hu, Xiao Erduo turned to look at the hall masters around him.
"Boss, it's not that we don't want to implement the plan, but many factory owners don't gamble and don't work hard to expand their business! We simply can't find an opportunity to lend them money!" As the head of the Kwun Tong District, Lian Haolong has the most say.
The reason why Lian Haolong became Xiao Erduo's man was because Xiao Erduo helped him when he was desperate, and both of them had the surname Lian, so Lian Haolong worshipped Xiao Erduo's father as his godfather.
"I don't want to hear so many excuses. I only know that if we don't continue to invest in the north without the factory, our expansion plan will come to a halt, which will affect the profits of the entire group!" Xiao Er's eyes were sharp, and several hall masters immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look at Xiao Er again, and also put away their nonchalant and ruffian temperament.
There was a knock on the door, and Xiao Erduo immediately looked unhappy. He was in a meeting. Who dared to disturb him?
As the general manager of the company, Lian Hu still cares about his subordinates, so he quickly opened the door. Standing outside the door was a vice president of the company.
"Boss Lian, there's a guy from mainland China here. He said he has something important to give you. I said I would pass it on to him, but he refused!" The vice president complained to Lian Hu with an unhappy look on his face.
When Lian Hu heard this, his eyes widened. "Don't ask about things you shouldn't ask about! Hurry and invite that gentleman in!" Lian Hu patted the vice president's head and said to him.
When the vice president heard this, he knew he had hit a wall, so he quickly went to greet the messenger and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
Soon, a plain-looking middle-aged man walked into Lian Hu's office. However, he didn't pay any attention to the curious eyes. Instead, he walked straight to Lian Hu, took out a sealed file bag and handed it to Lian Hu.
Lian Hu saw a mark on it, immediately took the file bag solemnly, turned around and handed it to his elder brother who was sitting in the main seat.
The person who delivered the letter was not curious, nor did he pay attention to Lian Hu's actions. Instead, he turned around and left without any intention of letting Lian Hu see him off.
Lian Hu also knew the rules and did not see him off, but just watched him leave his sight.
"Brother, there's news from the north!" Lian Hu walked over and sat down opposite Xiao Erduo, staring at the file bag in his brother's hand, and asked curiously.
"Yes, but this matter has nothing to do with you! You just need to do your own thing!" Xiao Erduo had no intention of letting Lian Hu see it. Instead, he put the things back into the file bag, stood up and walked out of the office, and went straight downstairs to a secret room!
