Chapter 906 The Key Person

After listening to Director Liao's words, Dad Zhu didn't answer the phone. As the saying goes, a wise woman cannot make a meal without rice.

He knew very well that Du Fei had too few resources.

It is very difficult to compete with the Y-capital consortium on your own. It is very likely that you will come back disgraced in the end.

But in Dad Zhu's opinion, if Du Fei can gain wisdom from every experience, it is not unacceptable to pay a little loss. In the final analysis, the worst outcome this time is that the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill's contract to export steel to Xiangjiang is ruined. If Du Fei wasn't allowed to go, it wouldn't be much better if someone else did it.

Because the above has reached a consensus before. No more resources will be invested in Hong Kong. There's nothing we can do about it

From here we can see how clever Dad Zhu is.

Why did it go so well last time? The most critical move is to bring Lin Tiansheng in. But now, times have changed.

The situation has completely changed. Lin Tiansheng has arrived in the north and has almost drained all the resources that can be allocated. Moreover, the planned plan is the top priority.

On the Xiangjiang side, it was an unexpected event.

Even Dad Zhu couldn't help Du Fei squeeze out more resources.

I can only say hello to Director Liao, hoping that I can help Du Fei take cover at the critical moment. The other end.

Back to the hotel in Dufy.

Southern cuisine has smaller portions and more variety.

He had only eaten seven percent full just now, hadn't drank any alcohol, and his mind was very clear. Thinking about what might happen when meeting Lei Luo tomorrow.

But at this moment, I suddenly felt a chill in my heart.

At the moment just now, he actually felt a very slight vibration coming from his personal space. If Du Fei's senses weren't particularly sensitive, he wouldn't even be able to detect it.

At the next moment, his mind moved and he focused his attention on the source of the vibration. It turned out to be Ci Xin who was still sleeping.

Du Fei frowned, wondering if Ci Xin was going to wake up?

But upon closer inspection, after being shaken for a moment, Ci Xin had no further reaction.

Du Fei returned to the bedroom, and with a thought in his mind, he released Metta from his personal space and put it on the bed. At this time, Ci Xin was wrapped in a set of Du Fei's pajamas and pajamas.

When Ci Xin was originally brought from Wang Changgui, she was seriously injured and was only wrapped in a military coat for the convenience of treatment. When he arrived at Du Fei's place, he found it even more troublesome, so he put it naked in the portable space.

This old set of pajamas was put on temporarily because she was going to be placed with Wang Yufen. Later, Du Fei came to Xiangjiang for some reason, and that was it.

Ci Xin was lying on the bed, her eyes closed, her breathing steady, her face rosy, as if she was asleep. Du Fei frowned.

Because in the portable space, the trauma of loving kindness was cured, she

This is the state. The strange situation just now seemed to have no impact on her.

The joy was in vain, which made Du Fei feel a little unmotivated.

He simply didn't take his compassion back and just let her lie down on the hotel bed.

Du Fei went to turn on the TV and lay on the other side with his hands on the head of the bed the next morning.

Du Fei opened his eyes and first glanced at Ci Xin beside him. It's exactly the same as last night, no changes at all. It's not that I'm disappointed, I've expected it.

Then he took his compassion back.

When you go out later, there will be a waiter cleaning the room. You can't leave such a person on the bed. Yesterday, I asked Lardboy to make an appointment with Lei Luo, and the time was set to be in the evening.

During the day, Du Fei was going to meet the staff of the Beijing Foreign Trade Company stationed in Xiangjiang. Although I had already confirmed before coming here that the steel was fine.

But we still need to understand what needs to be understood. I went out this time and didn't come back until the afternoon.

As soon as I arrived at the hotel lobby, I saw Lardboy sitting on the tea seat next to him, looking towards the door from time to time. Seeing Du Fei, he immediately stood up and greeted him, "Du Sheng, you are back~"

Du Fei smiled and said, "Has the place been decided yet?"

Lardboy said, "Brother Luo wants to invite you to my home." Du Fei was slightly different.

Generally speaking, when ordinary people invite guests to their homes, they are too dissatisfied with the people outside.

Restaurants cost money.

But at Lei Luo's level, inviting people to your home has a different meaning. Lei Luo expressed in this way that he hoped his relationship with Du Fei could go further. Du Fei readily agreed.

Asking Lardboy to wait a moment, he went back to the room upstairs to settle down, took a shower, changed clothes, and held a small gift in his hand. It was a Xianfengnian snuff bottle I randomly found in my pocket.

If the price is not too high, it can be considered a souvenir. Follow Lard Boy and take a car to Lei Luo's home. It's said to be a home, but it's actually a property owned by Lei Luo.

It's not a particularly exaggerated mansion, it's a flat floor with a new elevator built two years ago.

The house is located on the top floor, and Lei Luo likes the feeling of "seeing all the mountains and small mountains" through the window. Du Fei walked out of the elevator.

There is only one apartment on this floor, and there is an intercom downstairs.

Lei Luo knew that Du Fei and Lard Boy were coming, so he took his wife to greet them at the door.

When he saw Du Fei, he immediately greeted him with a big smile and shook hands warmly, "Comrade Du Fei, come to my humble abode and make your life shine!" Du Fei also smiled and said, "Superintendent Lei, you are so polite."

Lei Luo quickly humbled himself and called his wife "

Yue Chang, this is Comrade Du Fei. I owe everything to Comrade Du Fei for his help! "As soon as Du Fei came up, he saw Lei Luo's wife, Bai Yuechang.

Although time has not spared anyone, it can still be seen that she was a great beauty when she was young.

Wearing a goose-yellow satin short-sleeved cheongsam, she is still in good shape even in her forties. Du Fei smiled and handed over the souvenir, "Mrs. Sister-in-law, please excuse me."

Bai Yuechang responded politely, while her eyes curiously looked at the young man in front of her. After exchanging pleasantries, several people walked into the house.

After saying a few words, Bai Yuechang took the initiative to go to the kitchen.

In fact, there was no need for her to do anything, Lei Luo directly invited the chef to his home. However, there are some things that men are not comfortable saying when women are present.

Although Bai Yuechang was born as a eldest lady, she still has traditional ideas.

Du Fei sat on the sofa, looked at Lei Luo's house, and said with a smile, "This house must be more than 200 square meters, right?" Lei Luo was stunned for a moment.

Xiangjiang uses square feet when talking about area, and almost ten square feet equal one square meter.

After reacting, he immediately said, "If you like it, how about giving it to you here? You can see Victoria Bay from the window." Du Fei waved his hand, "I can't stay for a few months, why do I need a house~"

Lei Luo said, "I can't help but appreciate the value. It will more than triple in ten years." Du Fei smiled and didn't continue.

Then he started talking about other topics.

After chatting for a while, the kitchen is ready. Bai Yuechang personally brought the dishes to the table.

There are usually nannies at home, but they have all been sent out today.

Then, three people came out of the kitchen. Looking at their clothes, they were a chef and two helpers. He bowed slightly to Lei Luo and left.

Since it was a family dinner, there wasn’t much red tape.

After sitting down, eating and drinking, the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

It wasn't until he finished eating, returned to the living room, and made some tea that Du Fei got down to business. Should I say it or not, Lei Luo really has some interesting things here.

It turns out that as a local local snake in Xiangjiang, his position is actually not embarrassing. With the lowest level of vision, he is already an unattainable earth emperor.

But in front of those plutocrats and wealthy people, he is not very able to get on the stage. Until last time.

At a critical moment, he got a gun from Du Fei and participated in the Ship King's tunnel project. Only then can you be qualified to sit on the top card table in Hong Kong.

Even so, Lei Luo was at the bottom of the table. But it was enough for him to get some information that ordinary people didn't know.

For example, behind the steel businessman named Juan Carlos, who was the real driving force behind the attack on the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, were YG's famous Gran Steel Company and YD's Tata Group. <

br>

Without the participation of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, the order for the undersea tunnel would have been divided between the two. Now it’s not surprising to get into trouble from it.

At the same time, Du Fei also heard another name from Lei Luo - the Hall family.

It is said that this is a quite ancient YG noble, from the seventeenth century

He was awarded a title during the reign of Charles I in the 19th century and has continued to this day, with a profound foundation.

Du Fei didn't take it seriously.

What bullshit aristocrats are, they are just a bunch of YG guys just enjoying themselves.

In the twentieth century, various laws against the nobility, coupled with two world wars, directly destroyed the vast majority of the nobility.

During the war, many nobles died on the battlefield, and their children had to pay a large sum of money if they wanted to inherit the title and property.

What's even more unfortunate is that some nobles paid money and died in battle just a few days after inheriting. If you pass on the title again, you have to pay taxes again.

This caused many nobles to go bankrupt immediately after World War II.

Even those who barely persevered were superficially decent.

He had to choose to marry a capitalist and maintain a poor financial situation. Lei Luo mentioned that the Hall family might be in a better situation.

But Du Fei estimates that this family is most likely a white glove launched by capitalists. After all, it was only the sixties, and aristocracy still had some value.

In addition, Lei Luo also revealed an important situation to Du Fei. The Governor of Hong Kong has serious health problems.

Last year, heart surgery was unsuccessful.

Although the condition has improved, the problem has not been completely solved. However, the Tai Chi-lam family did not want to give up the position of Hong Kong Governor.

I finally managed to persevere last year. If I leave my job due to illness now, it will be like making a wedding dress for others. The governor of Hong Kong could only hold on and hide it from their homeland.

In addition, it is Vincent, an old acquaintance of Du Fei. Since the last time I "went north alone".

He single-handedly defended Xiangjiang and became YG's hero. Vincent is pretty smooth sailing.

It turns out that he is an empty-headed aristocrat, relying on his uncle being the governor of Hong Kong to dictate terms in Hong Kong. Now he has officially become an official stationed in the Colonial Department, which can be regarded as officially entering the political world.

Regarding Vincent's situation, Du Fei listened very carefully.

Vincent is the key to success or failure in his plan this time around. Last time, Vincent benefited, and this time it was his turn to reciprocate.

Finally, Lei Luo and his wife personally sent Du Fei downstairs.

Watching Du Fei get into Lardboy's car and drive away, Lei Luo raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already nine o'clock in the evening.
