Xiao Zhenguo looked at the tens of billions of checks on the table and was stunned.
Obviously, I didn't expect what Yuan Yuqin said to be true.
What’s more, I didn’t expect that this tens of billions check was given by my daughter Xiao Ling’er.
You know, in order to raise the 5 billion in cash, he even broke his legs, but no one was willing to borrow it.
After all, five billion is not a small amount.
Finally, as a last resort, he went to see Du Yunfei, the number one figure in all three religions in the Demon City.
Moreover, he used his own company's equity as a guarantee to lend out 5 billion.
After a long while, Xiao Zhenguo came back to his senses. He frowned in a Sichuan shape. After looking at Yuan Yuqin, he looked at Xiao Ling'er again and asked:
"Ling'er, where did you get so much money?"
"Even if you sell all the shares in Yuguo Group, it won't be worth so much money."
Xiao Ling'er shook his head and smiled bitterly, knowing that his father Xiao Zhenguo would ask this question, so he had to recount his experiences in the Magic City in the past few days.
"I see."
After hearing this, Xiao Zhenguo looked suddenly stunned and looked towards Hong Yu.
In his eyes, he was both appreciative and grateful.
"Xiaoyu, Uncle Xiao really read you right. This time I came to Magic City to not only help Yuguo Group avoid the risk of bankruptcy, but also got tens of billions in cash for Ling'er. I really have no selfish motives at all."
"Ling'er can marry you in this life. With a man who loves her so much, I feel relieved." The more Xiao Zhenguo looked at Hong Yu, the more he liked him.
Xiao Linger smiled like an aunt at the side and looked at Hong Yu affectionately.
She also hopes to marry Hong Yu in this life.
If not, she would rather never marry in this life.
Hong Yu smiled awkwardly and said: "Uncle Xiao, I am Ling'er's boyfriend, this is what I should do."
Xiao Zhenguo said: "Having said that, not many men can remain unmoved in front of tens of billions of checks."
"Don't say that you and Ling'er are just lovers. Many couples who have been together for decades may plot against each other in the face of such huge interests. If it's serious, it's possible that they could fight each other."
Yuan Yuqin rarely agreed with Xiao Zhenguo and nodded in agreement: "Xiaoyu, your uncle Xiao is right. I have been in the business world for so many years, and I am well-informed. No matter how close we are in the face of huge interests,
Any relationship may turn against you."
"So you are not selfish at all this time, and you try your best to help Ling'er and strive for the greatest benefit for Ling'er. I really admire and am touched. Maybe even Auntie can't do this for you."
Hong Yu was a little embarrassed by the praise, scratched his head and said with a smile: "Uncle Xiao, Aunt Yuan, you have given me a reward. Didn't I also get the 20% share given by Ling'er?"
"Moreover, I purchased more than 30% of the shares of Yuguo Group at a low price and became the actual controller of Yuguo Group. I may become the biggest beneficiary in the future."
"So, if you say that I have made a selfless contribution to Sister Ling'er, I really don't dare to take it seriously."
Xiao Ling'er said quickly: "Brother Xiaoyu, I forced myself to give you the 20% of the shares. I know that with your character, you won't want it."
"As for the more than 30% of the shares you purchased, that was also your own money. On the contrary, the shares I purchased from Chen Nan and the others were made with your money."
"Xiaoyu, please stop being humble. Uncle Xiao knows your character and doesn't want to take credit or be too high-profile, but we are a family and being high-profile at home doesn't get in the way," Xiao Zhenguo said.
Hong Yu smiled helplessly and stopped talking.
"Xiao Zhenguo, now you know that I am not short of money, so please return the money quickly."
"This is not Jiangnan Province, let alone Jiangzhou City. You have no military and political background, so you should try not to provoke a big brother like Du Yunfei." Yuan Yuqin looked at Xiao Zhenguo, with concern in his words.
After all, they have been married for decades and have a daughter together. It is impossible to say that they have no feelings at all.
On the contrary, they both have each other in their hearts.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been divorced for so long without finding a sweetheart.
In fact, the divorce was not due to the breakdown of the relationship, but because both parties were too strong and neither one was willing to give in when encountering problems, which led to the divorce.
Xiao Zhenguo could naturally hear Yuan Yuqin's concern for him and was in a good mood.
"Okay, then I will go find Du Yunfei now and pay back the money."
After Xiao Zhenguo picked up the five billion cash check on the table, he looked at Hong Yu and said, "Xiaoyu, tonight, you and Ling'er come to my house for a meal."
Before Hong Yu could speak, Yuan Yuqin's angry shouts immediately sounded.
"Xiao Zhenguo, what do you mean?" She glared at Xiao Zhenguo.
Xiao Zhenguo pretended to be innocent, "I asked my daughter and son-in-law to come back to my house for a meal, what happened?"
"No, Xiaoyu and Ling'er must have dinner at my place." Yuan Yuqin said firmly.
Xiao Zhenguo said speechlessly: "I say, Yuan Yuqin, you are too domineering, aren't you?"
"The young couple will have lunch at your place? Do they have to have dinner at your place?"
Yuan Yuqin said: "Yes, I am so domineering, don't you agree?"
Xiao Zhenguo shrugged and said: "I don't care anyway. I will definitely have two drinks with Xiaoyu in the evening. I want to thank him for helping my family so much this time. If you don't agree with the young couple coming to my house, then I will accept it."
Quite a lot, take a step back and I can come to your place and have a couple of drinks with Xiaoyu, right?"
Yuan Yuqin was hesitating.
In her heart, she really wanted to keep Xiao Zhenguo.
But thinking about this guy who was always angry with her and contradicting her, she was so angry that she didn't want to see this guy.
Hong Yu and Xiao Ling'er looked at each other and smiled. How could they not understand the hidden meaning of Xiao Zhenguo's words?
This is obviously because he still wants to come over at night, but he can't say it shamelessly, so he can only use roundabout tactics.
"Mom, let dad come over tonight. The men can talk more together." Xiao Ling'er said while winking at Hong Yu.
Hong Yu understood what he meant and echoed: "Aunt Yuan, I am now the actual controller of Yuguo Group. Although I am not interested in business, it is not certain. It is not certain if I engage in business again in the future, so
While I'm in the magic city these days, I want to learn from Uncle Xiao and gain some business experience, which may be useful in the future. I hope you can make it happen."
"Xiaoyu, this is your home. If you want to meet with your Uncle Xiao and ask about his business experience, you can just tell him yourself without asking me." Yuan Yuqin directly gave the invitation to Hong Yu.
It not only gave Hong Yu face, but also preserved his own face.
At least, she didn't ask Xiao Zhenguo to stay.
"Thank you Aunt Yuan."
Hong Yu understood and turned to look at Xiao Zhenguo, "Uncle Xiao, let's see you tonight."
"Hey, okay." Xiao Zhenguo left the villa happily.
...
Shortly after,
Xiao Zhenbang drove to a private garden house near Jinling Street.
This bungalow was built at the beginning of the last century and is a single-family villa.
The style is more European and American.
There are three floors in total.
It covers an area of approximately three acres.
It was the private residence of a great warlord at that time. Even after nearly a hundred years, the appearance of the house is still full of grandeur.
Ordinary people probably can't dream of such a nice bungalow.
"Please go in and tell me that I have something to see you, Master Du."
As soon as Xiao Zhenguo got out of the car, he said to the bodyguard guarding the door.
"Boss Xiao, didn't you come to see Mr. Du not long ago?" One of the bodyguards asked with a frown.
"Well, I did, but I have other things to ask Mr. Du to see, so I'm sorry for bothering you, brother." Xiao Zhenguo's tone was gentle.
"Okay, just wait here, I'll go in and let you know."
After the bodyguard finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the mansion.
Three minutes later, he left and returned.
"Boss Xiao, Master Du is waiting for you in the living room. Come over quickly."
The bodyguard pushed open the large iron door and checked Xiao Zhenguo's whole body with instruments to prevent him from entering with weapons such as pistols or daggers.
After the inspection, it is confirmed that there are no dangerous items and the goods are released immediately.
"Master Du."
Xiao Zhenguo came to the living room and saw a middle-aged man in his forties wearing a red Tang suit sitting on the sofa smoking a cigar. He immediately said hello.
"Boss Xiao, why did you come here again?"
Du Yunfei leaned on the sofa, looked at Xiao Zhenguo walking towards him, and said very leisurely: "If you want to borrow more funds from me, you may disappoint Boss Xiao."
"Five billion is the maximum amount I can currently lend to Boss Xiao."
Xiao Zhenguo smiled and said: "Master Du, you misunderstood. I'm not here to borrow money, I'm here to pay back the money."
"Pay back the money?"
Du Yunfei looked slightly shocked.
He had already sent someone to inquire about Xiao Zhenguo's situation.
I borrowed this amount to relieve my ex-wife Yuan Yuqin’s urgent needs.
What? Now you regret it, don’t want to help anymore, come here to pay back the money?
Xiao Zhenguo took out a check worth 5 billion from his pocket, placed it on the tea table in front of Du Yunfei, and said: "Master Du, I didn't cash the check. Now it returns to its original owner."
Du Yunfei glanced at the check in front of him and said calmly: "Boss Xiao, we signed an agreement. The agreement states that we will pay it back in twelve months. Now you pay it all back to me at once, but you have breached the contract."
Xiao Zhenguo had already thought of this and said: "Master Du, I know there is a breach of contract. I remember the liquidated damages are one thousandth, which is five million. I will give it to you now."
Du Yunfei suddenly smiled: "Boss Xiao, are you suffering from old eyesight? Who told you it's one in a thousand?"
Xiao Zhenguo's expression suddenly changed, and he frowned and said, "But I remember it's one thousandth. It's written in the contract."
Du Yunfei said: "It seems that Boss Xiao really has something wrong with his eyesight. He is clearly one out of ten."
"What, a tenth?"
Xiao Zhenguo's eyes widened in shock.
"certainly."
Du Yunfei said: "If Boss Xiao doesn't believe it, you can take out the agreement signed today and take a look."
Xiao Zhenguo quickly read the contents of the agreement signed with Du Yunfei today from his pocket.
When I saw that the proportion of liquidated damages had really changed from one thousandth to one tenth, everyone was dumbfounded.
"Impossible, this is impossible."
Xiao Zhenguo shook his head, "I clearly remember it was one in a thousand, how could this become one in ten?"
Suddenly, he remembered something and stared at Du Yunfei.
"Master Du, it must be you who caused the trouble. I know there is a kind of pen that will disappear after a period of time after writing. You must have used that special carbon pen to add a "ten" on the character in advance.
Pen, turn the word 'ten' into the word 'thousand', right?"
Du Yunfei looked at Xiao Zhenguo with a funny face and thought, this guy is quite smart.
I really guessed his modus operandi.
But so what?
If Du Yunfei wants to cheat money, there is nothing he can't cheat in the Magic City.
"Boss Xiao, you have wronged me. It was written in black and white on the paper, and you signed it. You can't invalidate it just because you didn't see it clearly, right?" Du Yunfei took a deep breath from his cigar, and the thick white smoke faded out.
.
Xiao Zhenguo said: "It's impossible for me not to see clearly that it was you who forged the contract. Anyway, the liquidated damages are five million. If you want it, you can take it. If you don't want it, I won't pay more."
Du Yunfei's face suddenly darkened: "So, Boss Xiao is planning to default on the debt?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he picked up the teacup on the table and threw it to the ground.
In an instant, a group of young men wearing black Chinese tunic suits rushed in from outside.
These people are apparently employees of a security company run by Du Yunfei, but in fact they are his mascots.
These people helped to do some illegal things that it was not convenient for Du Yunfei to come forward to solve.
No matter who gets into trouble because of this, the lives of the whole family will be taken care of by Du Yunfei.
With no worries, these people were naturally loyal to Du Yunfei.
Even if Du Yunfei asked them to kill someone, they would not hesitate.
Xiao Zhenguo felt a little panicked when he saw Du Yunfei's cavalry surrounding him. There were dozens of them, all holding iron bars in their hands.
But after all, he was once a soldier, so how could he be easily intimidated?
He looked at Du Yunfei and said, neither humble nor arrogant, "Master Du, do you think you can scare me with this method?"
"Let me tell you clearly, I, Xiao Zhenguo, am not scared."
"Scaring you?"
Du Yunfei chuckled: "Boss Xiao, I know you have been in the military. The old man at home had a high position in the army and was very famous in your local area. But this is the magic city. Let alone you, it is your home."
When the old man comes here, he has to plate everything for me."
"Let me ask you one last time, do you want to pay 10%?" Du Yunfei's tone became impatient.
"No compensation!" Xiao Zhenguo remained stubborn.
"Very good, you asked for this." Du Yunfei's face darkened and he shouted: "Do it for me, don't show mercy to me."
As he spoke, the younger brothers picked up their iron bars and hit Xiao Zhenguo on the head, as if they were beaten to death.
Although Xiao Zhenguo was a soldier and was considered a sharp knife back then, he has been retired for many years after all.
In addition, as he gets older and his physical fitness has declined significantly, who can be Du Yunfei's opponent?
He was knocked to the ground within a few moments.
Blood burst out from the shell of his head.
"Boss Xiao, why bother asking for trouble? As long as you pay my liquidated damages, I can let you go now."
Du Yunfei sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, smoking a cigar, looking at Xiao Zhenguo who was knocked to the ground but still gritting his teeth and enduring the pain without letting out a single scream, and said with a joking smile.
"Don't expect me to bow down to you, a criminal. If you can, kill me. Otherwise, if you want me to pay one-tenth of the liquidated damages, just go ahead and dream." Xiao Zhenguo said impassionedly.
It's not like he can't raise 500 million.
But I don’t want to raise money at all.
This is his backbone.
"Very well, Boss Xiao, let me see if you want money or your life today."
Du Yunfei was completely annoyed and shouted angrily at his subordinates: "You haven't even eaten, have you? After fighting for a long time, this guy is still so stubborn?"
Hearing this, the dozens of horse boys started to attack violently.
In less than ten seconds, Xiao Zhenguo completely passed out.
His whole body was dripping with blood, which looked very scary at first glance.
