In a small restaurant in Qizhou, Li Siwen and Lu Shuhang gave each other a bear hug as soon as they met. Then they simply ordered a few dishes and then went to the corner to chat.
"What happens this time will definitely exceed your expectations. The water in Qizhou is too deep." Lu Shuhang said while eating the food.
"How?" Li Siwen asked.
"You are so smart, haven't you seen the problem yet?" Lu Shuhang raised his eyes slightly.
"Haha." Li Siwen scratched his head: "I came to meet you as soon as I woke up today, and I didn't even have time to read the newspaper."
"Brother, let me talk to you!" Lu Shuhang lit a cigarette, took two deep puffs, flicked the ash to the ground, and whispered: "Weidong disappeared yesterday and never appeared again. I found out through some channels,
This guy really ran away. The branch he established in Qizhou has been emptied of people. Investors in various cities are like ants on a hot pot, waiting for the news."
"As expected, he must have spent a lot of money to cover the interest for the past three months. Now that I have won this battle, there is no need for him to continue spending it." Li Siwen replied calmly.
"Yes, so even if there are still some investors who are taking chances, most people have already reacted. Even Xu Shaojie, who organized this fund-raising, has now come to his senses. After all, he must have sent people to keep an eye on Weidong.
I just didn’t expect that the other party would sneak away from the venue.”
Hearing Lu Shuhang's words, Li Siwen looked at the other party again and said jokingly: "Brother, didn't you just arrive in Qizhou yesterday? You actually figured out the problems here clearly, you have some tricks!"
"Hmph, I know more than you, just listen to me." Lu Shuhang snorted, and then said: "Weidong's escape has been confirmed, and the investors' reaction is also extremely strong, but have you noticed that today's major newspapers
But he didn’t mention anything about Wei Dong.”
"Perhaps time is a little tight? Or maybe some media haven't gotten the news yet?" Li Siwen muttered.
"The media's ears are sharper than anyone else's. Wei Dong's story has long been spread among the major newspapers. If the major newspapers will still consider the impact of the matter, what about the surrounding tabloids? These black newspapers can do anything if they have something.
They advocated to the heavens, but now there is a collective silence." Lu Shuhang said with a serious expression: "And I learned from some colleagues that a blackout order has been issued about Weidong. Not only Qizhou cannot report it, but also the entire Qilu Province.
Turning a deaf ear to this matter, even though there are many victims.”
"Blocking order?" Li Siwen frowned.
"Yes, we can see two problems from this incident. The first problem is that there are many people who were deceived this time, and there must be provincial high-level officials. The second problem is that the Xu family is more powerful than imagined, and it is by no means a simple matter.
businessman, so even though Xu Shaojie helped raise funds, no one dared to ask him to pay for it." When Lu Shuhang said this, he paused slightly and added: "I asked about it, Xu Sankui's father's name is Xu Haicheng, and he once served as Qilu Province
Director of the Taxation Bureau, he paved the way for the Xu family. Although he is no longer in his position, the relationship is very deep, and Xu Shaojie’s uncle Xu Zhicheng is now the director of the Qilu Provincial Police Department Office. You should understand this time, right?"
Li Siwen didn't reply. He stared deeply at the wine glass in his hand. After a few minutes of silence, Lu Shuhang asked quietly: "What's wrong? Are you okay?"
"Brother, you know, I always thought that in this era I had no rivals, but obviously I was wrong. Mr. Song has taught me a lesson this time!" Li Siwen sighed deeply.
Helpless and grateful, he continued: "I took the risk to attend Xu Shaojie's tea party before, and Mr. Song came to the rescue and made a three-month bet with Xu Sankui. Obviously, the old man saw more clearly than I did. He knew clearly that even if Wei
Even if Dong's fraud methods were exposed, it would not cause too much trouble in Qizhou. Even if the investors made trouble, the news would be completely blocked. I underestimated certain forces. So, I wanted to rely on exposing
The way Weidong entered the Qizhou market was wrong in itself, but it was the old man who forcibly pulled me back, and it was he who saved me."
Li Siwen's emotion came from the bottom of his heart. While he admired the old man in his heart, he was also afraid of his own indiscretion. His approach would be no problem thirty years later. In an era when the Internet was prevalent, it was impossible to completely block the news.
It's difficult, but this is the early 1990s.
He saw far away, but it was precisely because he saw far away that his eyes became blurred.
"Mr. Song is your noble man. I thought he looked familiar when I was in Caozhou Hospital. I didn't expect him to be the head of the Song Group. However, it is said that his physical condition is not good."
At this time, the two of them didn't know that Mr. Song had passed away. After Lu Shuhang said this, Li Siwen's page rang.
He glanced at it, then frowned and said, "Brother, Zheng Jiayu has something urgent to do with me. I won't chat with you for now. Let's go to a big hotel to have something to eat tonight."
"No need, I have to rush back to Caozhou in a while. There is something you must listen to before I leave."
"Brother, tell me."
"You have disgraced the Xu family this time, and life in Qizhou will definitely be even more difficult in the future. Moreover, Wei Dong is running away now. It would be okay if the police catch him. If not, everyone will have nowhere to vent their emotions.
It may be directed to you, you are a wise man and know what I mean."
Lu Shuhang's words were not alarmist. The amount involved in Weidong's case this time was in the tens of millions at least. There were so many people defrauded. If they couldn't get their money back and they didn't dare to touch the Xu family, they would naturally have to have a punching bag.
He is the one who takes the blame. Even if this matter has nothing to do with Li Siwen, there are bound to be some unreasonable people who blame him.
"knew."
After Li Siwen said goodbye to Lu Shuhang, he first called Zheng Jiayu and then drove to Qizhou Park in a hurry. Zheng Jiayu only said that it was urgent. Li Siwen knew that the fewer words, the bigger the matter would be.
At the entrance of the park, he saw Zheng Jiayu leaning on the car, with a bit of anxiety in his eyes. As soon as he looked at her, he said with a cold face: "Why are you here?"
"It's been less than half an hour from the time you called me to the time I saw you. Do you think I'm the rocket pilot?" Li Siwen pretended to complain, "I didn't even have time to eat."
"You... I paged you at least twenty times today, but you didn't read the messages? And you are no longer a small boss. Can you get a big brother?"
Li Siwen smiled awkwardly. He really didn't have time to read the pager, so he could only change the topic and said: "I'll buy it when I have time. What happened?"
