Chapter 184 [Chicken, hen?]
In this world, everyone has to work. From the head of state to the common people.
An ordinary person will starve to death if he doesn't work.
If a boss doesn't work hard, the company will collapse and it will be time for bankruptcy and reorganization.
If an emperor does not work hard, the country will perish, and it is time to change the dynasty.
Even in professions that claim to have a lot of free time, such as online writers, there are some extremely lazy minorities among them. No matter how lazy they are on weekdays, they still have to update when they need to work.
Chen Nuo knew that more than ten years later, there was a particularly popular word called "financial freedom", which was set as a goal by many people - but in fact this dream was a scam.
The so-called financial freedom, in the vernacular, means that if you have enough money, the passive income of this money, such as interest on bank deposits or investment income, can meet your basic living expenses - at this time,
You no longer have to work hard every day.
But actually this is a scam.
Because economists will tell us that social progress requires continuous production to create wealth.
It is impossible to live a life where everyone can have wealth and freedom.
If we talk about a society where everyone has freedom of wealth - if everyone can rest on their wealth and wait to die, then the result may be that everyone dies together.
Because no one works to create wealth.
Therefore, Li Qingshan also has to work - although in terms of asset standards, his property has already reached the standard of "wealth freedom".
Human life is like a car running on the highway. It is impossible to stop. Once you stop, you may hit the car and kill people.
The so-called rich and poor, the so-called social status, and the so-called quality of life, in fact, the difference is nothing more than that when driving on this highway, the rich drive top-end luxury cars with panoramic sunroofs and leather belt massage functions.
seats, and a car refrigerator.
And you may just drive a Wuling Hongguang.
·
Li Qingshan not only works hard, but is also very diligent and hardworking.
At the age of fifty-seven, as a man, he actually has very little desire for women. The same is true for Li Qingshan.
Except for a few days ago when his legs were fine, out of compensation, after two days of drunkenness and sleep, Li Qingshan quickly returned to his previous working state.
If there is no woman accompanying him at night, the old man will usually go to bed no later than ten o'clock at night and get up at six o'clock in the morning.
After getting up, I will first walk around the grassland around my residence a few times. The pace is neither fast nor satisfactory. It takes about forty minutes, just enough to make me sweat a little. If it is raining, I will complete this process on the treadmill in the house.
.
After running, I take a shower and have breakfast at seven o'clock on time.
Li Qingshan's breakfast habit was to eat fried dough sticks with tofu curd - it used to be spicy paste soup, but as he got older and his stomach was not in good condition, the doctor advised him to eat less spicy food, so he changed the spicy paste soup to tofu curd.
In Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas, tofu curd is salty.
The fried dough sticks were one foot long and were freshly cooked in the morning. Deep-fried in good, fresh oil until golden brown. Then take them out, drain off the oil, put them on a plate and bring them to the old man's table.
Four fried dough sticks and a bowl of tofu.
This is Li Qingshan’s breakfast.
Then there’s the news - don’t think it’s an exaggeration, this is an essential step for every entrepreneur.
The old man thinks that he is no longer a charlatan, but an entrepreneur.
Take a look at the government's new policies, local government's new trends, the latest and hottest public opinion guidance, etc.
By the way, the old man has started to watch the national channel's simulcast every night in the past two years - this habit was something he never had before, but he learned it after he made friends with a business tycoon who was doing government business.
After reading the news, the old man would make a pot of tea, and then wait for his subordinates to report on the latest developments of the property in his hands and yesterday. After reading and listening to each one, he would deal with any issues immediately.
This process should be done almost noon.
Li Qingshan has many properties, and the most famous one in Jinling City is of course the Zhe Feng Hall, which is said to make a fortune every day - but in fact, among Li Qingshan's properties, the least important one is the Zhe Feng Hall.
Even in the past two years, the old man always had the idea to find an opportunity to transfer this business - keeping Zhe Feng Hall, for Li Qingshan, the only purpose was to preserve his reputation in the world.
In the world of martial arts, Zhe Feng Hall is the fangs and edges of Li Qingshan. With Zhe Feng Hall, he is the famous Hall Master Li in the world, and people on the road dare not mess with him.
Without Zhe Feng Tang, he would be just a doughy rich man with no teeth.
And Zhe Feng Tang is no longer the most profitable business in his industry.
In addition to this hot spring resort, Li Qingshan is involved in the hotel industry. He also plans to open two hotel chains near the university town planned by the government.
There are also two restaurants in the catering industry, one is a hot pot restaurant that is close to the people, and the other is a high-end restaurant that sells Yan Bao Chi.
On the antique street of Chaotian Palace, there are two shops that deal in antiques and antiques - the one that is actually the least profitable, excluding the rent, is just a loss! Not many business transactions are completed in a year. Although the amount seems to be large, in fact, from the book
It looks like the cost is very high.
But Li Qingshan never closed it, but let the two shops stay there.
Moreover, the person who directly manages the antique shop is the old man’s most trusted subordinate, Lao Qi.
Why, the reason is hard to explain in detail.
Li Qingshan is still thinking about his plan to get involved in real estate in the next two years - there are channels for funding, and he is already thinking of ways to get the approval.
In the old man's opinion, real estate will be an industry explosion point in the future. The country's welfare housing distribution has ended, and the real estate industry has been liberalized. Although in the past two years, the housing price has not risen fast... and I always hear some negative news.
, there are unfinished buildings there, there are bubbles there.
This is also the reason why Li Qingshan didn't think highly of his subordinate Wang Laohu before.
That King Lao Lao has been following Li Qingshan for many years. It stands to reason that he also made some money, but he threw it all away in a wasteful way.
Li Qingshan once persuaded him to buy a house.
Wang Laohu didn't know where he heard it from, so he said to the old man: "The housing market is a bubble, and I heard that the real estate developers can't hold it anymore! I won't be in a hurry! In a few years, the price of houses will definitely rise."
Fall! Everyone is a fool to buy a house now!"
——Li Qingshan felt that his former right-hand man was really a stick.
When he was in the martial arts world before, this guy looked very fierce, but now he seems to be a brainless guy after all.
Therefore, during the days when Li Qingshan was paralyzed, he only sent Wang Laohu, his former right-hand man, to Zhe Feng Hall to watch the business, and he was not allowed to touch any other business.
Li Qingshan's most proud business in recent years is this hot spring resort, which covers an area of 60 acres.
In order to get this project, I gave it as a gift to a big boss.
Many competitors give away money, houses, gold, and some even want to give away women.
In the end, they all failed.
What did Li Qingshan give? A bag of dirt!
That boss is from Wuyi. The place in Wuyi produces tea. There are two famous ancient tea trees on the top of the mountain. For hundreds of years, the tea produced every year is only thirty kilograms, and the price can be sold for the equivalent of gold.
of.
And it’s something you can’t buy even if you have money.
Li Qingshan didn't buy tea - he knew that given his rank, he couldn't buy it, so he sent someone to buy a bag of soil from the top of the mountain not far from the tea tree at a high price and sent it to the big boss.
After explaining the origin of the soil...
Li Qingshan successfully obtained this project.
Most of the bag of soil he bought was given to the big boss. Li Qingshan filled the rest in a flower pot at home, planted a bonsai, and placed it in front of his study table.
As usual, Li Qingshan ate lunch in his study.
The lunch on the coffee table consisted of a plate of beans, a plate of beef, a plate of vegetables, and a bowl of Bazhen black-bone chicken soup.
Add two ounces of rice.
After lunch, I would take a walk for a while, then go back to my room and sleep for more than half an hour.
You can't squint for too long...the elderly feel less comfortable.
In the afternoon, I just meet the guests. The partners ask for things from others, and the people ask for things from me.
Or just visit some official departments that need to establish relationships.
Sometimes he would make an appointment to socialize in the evening. Sometimes, if there was no socializing, the old man would go back and have a bowl of rice by himself and watch the hookup.
If there is no socializing, Li Qingshan's dinner is usually very simple, a bowl of noodles, mostly vegetarian.
He doesn't drink alcohol - as long as there is no social interaction, the old man doesn't drink at all when he is at home.
Smoking is also controlled to no more than ten cigarettes a day.
This is the work schedule of fifty-seven-year-old Li Qingshan on a typical day.
Actually, it's not easy.
In fact, most people who have a good life are like this. More than ten years later, the schedule of the richest man in real estate, Wang Laowang, was revealed on the Internet. He had to get up at five o'clock in the morning to work.
Much more tiring than ordinary office workers.
There are beauties on yachts partying, famous wines, and cars, and reveling in luxury. In fact, they don’t have much time to enjoy themselves.
·
Li Qingshan was still very concerned about the arrangements arranged by Chen Nuo, "Brother Haonan's junior brother".
In the past two days, the old man had chatted with the owners of several jade shops in Jinling City and sent everyone a copy of the photo of the jade plaque.
There are several private collectors in Jinling City, and the old man also knows a few prominent people, so he also asked people to help him find it.
News...of course there won't be any.
The jade plaque was simply picked out by Chen Nuo from a bag of jade articles brought back from the Guo family.
·
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Li Qingshan walked out of a jade shop called "Dongfutang".
The owner's surname is Wang, and his given name is Wang Mantang. He is a big expert in collecting in Jinling City. This jade shop is not so much about buying and selling, but it is more like a collection hall built by Boss Wang himself, where he can make friends and exchange collections with his peers.
Boss Wang has other ways of making money.
At the door of the shop, Li Qingshan and Boss Wang Mantang stood there to say goodbye. Boss Wang smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. He was dressed very much like Li Qingshan, an old Chinese costume, but the materials were better and more sophisticated. On his thumb
He also wears an emerald green thumb ring and a jade Buddha plaque under his neck.
Behind the two of them, on the main hall of the shop opposite the door is a horizontal plaque: The hall is full of gold and jade.
The four characters "dragon flying and phoenix dancing" were handwritten by an old director of the Provincial Painting and Calligraphy Academy that Boss Wang hired at a high price.
"Then please." Li Qingshan said goodbye to Boss Wang with a smile.
Boss Wang sighed: "Mr. Li, I will definitely help you find out about the matter. However, you also know this business. If you encounter something you like, the owner may not be willing to take it out. And many times, some people are afraid of taking it.
If you come out to cause trouble, you won't even show it, so I will ask about things, but can I really find them..."
"As long as you do your best, I, Li Qingshan, will appreciate it!" Li Qingshan also nodded.
Lao Qi drove the car to the side of the road in person. Li Qingshan opened the door and got in. Before driving, he did not forget to wave to Boss Wang.
Across the road, a scooter started slowly, turned around at the intersection, and landed slowly behind Li Qingshan's car.
·
Harvey felt that he had made a mistake.
Li Qingshan's information was easily obtained - provided by the client.
Harvey's purpose this time was to get half of the jade in Li Qingshan's hand. Judging from the item in the photo, Harvey didn't know how much it was worth.
In fact, jade items have never been very popular in the European and American jewelry markets.
But the remuneration of three million M yuan was enough for Harvey to ignore these questions.
Harvey's original plan was to come to Jinling, find Li Qingshan, then break in directly at night, snatch the thing away, and then leave.
But when we finally got to the place, Harvey looked at it and thought it wouldn't work.
Li Qingshan had many people staying at his residence - after experiencing what Brother Haonan did, the old man was obviously more afraid of death than before.
The arrangement force in the hot spring hall is very strong, there are more people than Zhe Feng Hall.
It's not impossible to break in, otherwise it will only make things worse.
Harvey didn't think he could do this in China - he was a foreigner, and if he caused too much trouble and alerted the authorities, he would be in a lot of trouble. The middleman also warned him sternly that in China, a country with very strict regulations,
Don't mess around.
The location of Li Qingshan’s hot spring resort is also very stupid!
The street police station is on the same street as his hot spring resort! The straight-line distance is less than 500 meters!
If Harvey really broke into Li Qingshan's hot springs and started a fight, he would have to face official pressure directly.
Then we can only find another way.
Harvey followed Li Qingshan for two days.
It's not that he doesn't have a disguise - no matter how bad his temper is or how bad his mouth is, but he can become famous in the underground world, Harvey can't really be a fool after all - although his name is pronounced very close to these two characters in Chinese
.
When working, he still knows how to use strategies.
Secretly following Li Qingshan and looking for an opportunity to attack Li Qingshan first was Harvey's strategy.
But this secret tracking is a bit...
Cars are not good, Harvey does not have a Chinese driver's license - he does have a few international driver's licenses in fake names.
But the problem is that China has never joined the United Nations International Convention on Road Traffic, and international driving licenses are not universal in China.
It’s too late to get a fake Chinese driver’s license temporarily.
Harvey got a scooter, and after tipping the hotel waiter ten dollars, he went to a second-hand car market called Tangzi Street in Jinling City to buy it according to the waiter's instructions.
Two thousand Chinese coins.
This guy had no idea he was being ripped off!
This eight-hand bicycle was sold to him by the boss as a second-hand one.
It was fine on the first day after driving it back, but on the second day I discovered that as soon as it was started, a burst of black smoke billowed out of the exhaust pipe at the back!
Moreover, in 2001, would it be very eye-catching for a tall, tall, bearded foreigner to ride a scooter on the road...
Harvey's idea is very beautiful. If you ride a motorcycle, of course you need to wear a helmet!
But the problem is, after spending 500 yuan from his boss to buy a motorcycle helmet with high-end anti-fog lenses, Harvey found out after riding on the road...
What the hell, Chinese people riding motorcycles on the street don’t wear helmets at all!
Wearing a helmet makes you stand out from the crowd!
Harvey is a Caucasian, and he is one of the Caucasians with well-developed sweat glands and loves to sweat. The weather was in early August, and a high temperature warning was issued just two days ago.
One day while riding a motorcycle, the shirt on my body was soaked through under the strong sun, and my skin was as red as a steamed crab just fished out of the pot.
At this time, he was still wearing an airtight helmet on his head...
Even once while waiting at a red light, Harvey was wearing a helmet and felt that the Chinese people around him looked at him as if they were looking at idiots.
"What are you doing, idiot? The temperature is 37 degrees today..."
·
The opportunity Harvey had been waiting for came on the third day.
It's cloudy today and a little cooler.
In the morning, Li Qingshan went out by car, but instead of going to the city, he drove south.
We came to a place called Hengxi Reservoir.
Li Qingshan didn't have many people with him today, only Lao Qi and two of his men followed him in a car.
Next to the reservoir, a remote stretch of waterfront is actually contracted by a local farmhouse, and enthusiasts who like wild fishing are not allowed to enter.
The farmhouse is a courtyard, a few hundred meters away from the reservoir.
Today, Li Qingshan is here to entertain a big boss who likes fishing to build relationships.
Because the big man's portion was unusual, Li Qingshan arrived in the morning and personally took Lao Qi to look at the banquet dishes prepared in the farmhouse. Then he took Lao Qi to the reservoir in person to see the fishing place.
Already.
"Take people to take a look around. First, arrange the parking place. It can't be too far or too close, and it's best to be hidden.
Also, get a barbecue grill and place it by the lake. He likes barbecue. If the fishing gets bad, there is no guarantee that the grill will taste good by the lake.
As for wine, I don’t want white wine. The guy who likes rice wine has prepared the Zhuangyuanhong he brought in the car.”
Lao Qi was a little embarrassed: "Boss, this day, rice wine? Are you panicking if it doesn't burn?"
"Get the ice cubes ready."
"Huh? People drink rice wine heated and served with ice?"
"You don't care! Prepare it first! If it doesn't work, just use something else."
The men gave the old man a complete set of fishing equipment and set them up by the reservoir lake.
There are fishing chairs, fishing rods worth tens of thousands, fishing baskets, and several packages of different types of bait.
"Now make some fish nests in the nearby water...and then..."
While Li Qingshan ordered his men to work, he stood under the sun umbrella nearby and smoked.
At this time, I heard a sudden sound...
Li Qingshan turned around and saw a scooter driving slowly along the edge of the reservoir.
Riding on it was an idiot who was covered in sweat and was wearing an airtight helmet on such a hot day.
Hall Master Li was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "Who is it? Lao Qi goes and has a look! Anyone who doesn't care will stop him."
Lao Qi nodded, waved his hand, and one of his subordinates came forward to greet him...
Then, Li Qingshan stood there and saw the scooter stopped. The rider on it took off his helmet. His face was so red that even his beard was dripping with sweat. He was still a foreigner.
One of his men came up to meet him, and before he could say anything, the foreigner suddenly waved his hand, and his men lay down on the ground in a daze!
Li Qingshan was stunned for a second. When he saw that the foreigner had a clear goal and came straight towards him... Li Qingshan turned around and backed away from Lao Qi!!
Behind him, there was a short shout from Lao Qi, which rang twice and then disappeared!
Li Qingshan didn't look back and ran as fast as he could, but after only two steps, the old man flew up! When he fell to the ground, he almost died from the pain!
Lao Qi lay on the ground, and he looked at the foreigner, holding his boss in one hand, walking up to him, and leaving a half-baked Chinese sentence.
"Don't call the police. If you are smart, just wait for my news."
After saying that, the other party reached out and took away the car keys from Lao Qi's arms, threw them into the lake, picked up Hall Master Li, and left quickly.
·
Li Qingshan felt that he might be destined to commit an evil star.
Otherwise, after living for fifty-seven years, in the first half of his life, he felt that the most powerful person in terms of personal force was the master who was led by a boss he met when he was young - and was later held at gunpoint.
The body was beaten into briquettes.
But this year, the Brother Haonan I met was so powerful that he was almost inhuman!
If Li Qingshan had to choose - in fact, he would rather he had never met Brother Haonan.
Why did you mess with such a person so well!!
He is a big boss, well-known, has connections from all walks of life, and is worth hundreds of millions.
Why did you come here?
But if you mess with it, you will mess with it. The old man has a lifetime of experience in the world and knows one thing well: turn bad things into good things!
So, I tried my best to curry favor with Brother Haonan and those people, so that my legs could heal again, and by establishing a good relationship, I might be able to use these strange people in the future.
Unexpectedly, I met another one today? Or a special foreigner?!
Li Qingshan really didn’t believe it!
How did I get into trouble with this person?
When he saw Harvey wave his hand and one of his men, a young man who had learned Sanda for several years, just lay on the ground in a daze, he knew something was wrong!
This is another evil star all the way!
When Lao Qi also lay down in someone else's hands without even seeing him for one or two times, Li Qingshan knew that he was finished.
·
At night, Li Qingshan was sitting in a field, not far from a half-collapsed iron house.
In the distance is a wild lake, and there are half-finished buildings beside the lake. It can be seen that it is built to look like a resort, but the houses are not capped.
Li Qingshan didn't know where this place was, but he could roughly tell it based on the direction he drove away after being thrown on the motorcycle by this man in the afternoon.
I'm afraid I've already arrived in Hui Province.
Jinling City was originally close to Hui Province.
The foreigner took out a can of anti-mosquito spray, sprayed it on the surrounding grass, and then sat in front of Li Qingshan.
Without using a rope to tie the person up, Harvey just looked at the old man coldly and cursed coldly: "You know how much I suffered in the past two days in order to catch you."
Li Qingshan stared at the foreigner with wide eyes - he didn't understand a word he said.
But the next moment, Li Qingshan's heart skipped a beat.
Harvey took out a photo from his body and placed it in front of Li Qingshan.
In the photo, it’s half a jade plaque!
Then, Harvey took the photo back into his pocket and said something to the old man.
This time Li Qingshan understood.
The other party spoke a bit stiff Chinese.
"I want this!"
"..."
Li Qingshan stared at the foreigner in front of him with wide eyes, blinked his eyelids a few times, and then smiled blankly:
"Brother, what about Lei Hai Bingo?"
·
"??" Harvey looked at Li Qingshan in confusion, obviously he didn't understand either!
For a moment, Harvey even doubted that the Chinese teacher he hired who charged 100 million yuan an hour had defrauded him.
Bingo?
Bingo?
Harvey knows this word. In English, it is a modal particle that expresses celebration, right?
What does this old man mean when he says bingo?
Celebrating being kidnapped?
Harvey glared at Li Qingshan angrily and slapped him across the face with his backhand.
Li Qingshan was able to carry it. After a while, he lay down on the ground, but he still looked at Harvey with wide eyes and a confused expression on his face.
"..." Harvey was speechless for a while, then took out his cell phone and started dialing.
On the other end of the phone was Harvey's intermediary.
"Damn it! The Chinese teacher you found for me is a liar! I can't understand a damn word of the Chinese this old man said! Are you trying to steal my money, you bastard?"
"How is that possible? Harvey, we are old friends!"
"If you let me know that you, son of a bitch, are cheating me out of my money, I will tear you apart when I go back!"
"...Don't worry, Harvey! What did he tell you?"
"What did he tell me about bingo and stuff!!"
"..." On the other end of the phone, the intermediary breathed out with a somewhat confused tone: "I have also learned Chinese, and I seem to know what you said. Well, in this case, you let me ask him."
Harvey angrily took the phone and put it on speakerphone, then put the phone in front of Li Qingshan.
On the other end of the phone, the middleman's voice came.
"Hey! If you don't want to be beheaded, hand over this thing! You thunder chicken hen!"
Li Qingshan blinked his little eyes a few more times - oh, he speaks Cantonese quite well!
Then... the old man took a deep breath, with a timid expression on his face, and spoke weakly:
"What are you talking about?"
