"Mr. Li, thank you very much for your help!"

When John Keswick was sent out of the gate by Li Yao and Li Long, Old John stopped and shook hands with Li Yao and his son again, and sincerely thanked him.

"Mr. John, you are so polite, you should help each other!"

Li Yao said with a smile and a smile.

"Haha!"

Old John laughed, glanced at Li Yao, and everything was silent.

At their age, they are all old foxes, and many things don't need to be said so explicitly.

And they all understand that no matter how good they say, it is better to do well, and whether they are reliable or not depends on whether they can help at a critical time.

During the negotiation, Old John had already agreed to Li Yao's conditions, so naturally he would not break his promise, and Li Yao was also very relieved about this.

"It's not too early, Mr. Li, I have to return to Xiangjiang as soon as possible, see you next time!"

"See you next time!"

Old John waved goodbye to Li Yao's father and son, got into the car, and went to the hotel where he stayed.

In the distance, on the window of a high-rise room in the hotel, a man lifted the curtain and set up a telescope to see the scene of Li Yao's father and son warmly bidding farewell to John Keswick.

When John Keswick left, his face was a little heavy, and he immediately packed up his binoculars and other things, left the hotel, and turned back to the company's premises.

This person is an employee of the Singapore branch of Jiuding Newspaper Company, and after receiving the task of the head office, he closely followed the whereabouts of Old John, and now he has discovered important news.

The company has arranged many people to track up, and he is lucky, this squatting position is just in charge of him, as long as the news is reported, the company will definitely not lack his reward!

Let's say that after Li Yao's father and son saw Old John leave, the father and son went back to the previous living room, and after sitting down face to face, Li Long poured a cup of hot tea for his father Li Yao and respectfully served it to him.

"Dad, I can't imagine that the Jardine Consortium has been forced to such an extent, that Xia Yu is so powerful?"

Li Long asked with some incredulity.

Born in a family like theirs, Li Long was cultivated by Li Yao in all aspects since he was a child, whether it was political, commercial, or even military.

Of course, Li Long knows a lot about the Jardine Matheson Consortium, the first consortium in the Far East, and he has seen a lot of information about the Jardine Matheson Consortium in the Singapore archives.

However, it was this No. 1 consortium in the Far East that was forced into such a situation that the old owner who had retreated into the background actually stepped out in person, and the purpose was to get the shares in the hands of Singapore's Temasek Investment Company.

And the cause of all this turned out to be Xia Yu, a young rich man who has risen in Xiangjiang.

Thinking of Xia Yu's age and his self-made legendary deeds, Li Long subconsciously compared himself and couldn't help but smile slightly bitterly.

People are more angry than people!

He is at Xia Yu's age, but he is still studying!

Li Yao's eyes were a little confused, he was silent for a moment, and said slowly: "This Xia Yu is indeed very powerful, among his peers, I can't find anyone who is more outstanding than him, Tianzhong Genius!"

"That father, Jiuding Securities Company is still negotiating, and also wants to take the shares, we have now sold the shares to the Keswick family, Jiuding Securities Company should fail to act, right? After all, with the shares we sold, the Keswick family has at least 44% of the shares, which is very close to the absolute control line!"

"Now that we are doing this, it can be said that it is bad for Jiuding Securities Company, and it will also affect the situation of Chinese and British capital in Xiangjiang, will there be any bad impact?"

Li Long thought about it and suddenly asked, not worrying in his heart.

After all, Singapore is a predominantly Chinese country, and its economy and life are controlled by Chinese capital, and it has a close relationship with the Chinese family in Hong Kong.

For example, the Guo family, the Qiu family, the Li family, the Huang family, etc., are now the big families in Singapore, either the main family is in Xiangjiang, or the branch is in Xiangjiang, and the connection is very close.

In addition, Xia Yu's influence in Singapore is also increasing day by day, for example, the two largest newspapers in Singapore have been acquired by Jiuding Newspaper Company, the share of "Jiuding Daily" and "Fengyun Daily" in Singapore is also increasing day by day, as well as the increasingly influential "Economic Weekly", it can be said that Jiuding Newspaper Company has occupied an absolute monopoly position in Singapore's paper media industry and has a strong influence on Singapore's public opinion.

At this juncture that has evolved into a tentative attack by Chinese capital against British capital with Xia Yu as the striker, the Li family, as the emperor of Singapore, not only did not help Xia Yu, who is also Chinese, but helped the Keswick family and stabbed Xia Yu in disguise, which will definitely not be simple.

Even if the Li family is in charge of the government of a country, they still have to take care of certain things.

What his son Li Long was worried about, Li Yao had already considered.

After John Sr. called, he immediately sent someone to report the situation to him, and after thinking about it for a long time, he still decided to sell the face of the Jardine Matheson Foundation.

Old John also came prepared, after some negotiations, Li Yao got more things, and the advantages of cooperating with the Jardine Matheson Consortium outweighed the disadvantages, so of course he agreed.

Even if he sells his shares to the Keswick family, it will affect the Chinese-funded big family in Xiangjiang and Xia Yu, he doesn't care, the supremacy of interests is the essence of the shopping mall, and no one can blame him openly! Even if he has an opinion, he can only hide it in his heart.

If Xia Yu is wise, he can only act as if nothing happened.

Otherwise, with Xia Yu's current strength, even if he monopolizes Singapore's paper media industry, if Li Yao is ruthless regardless of the impact, he can still create a lot of trouble for Xia Yu.

In any case, even though Singapore is a capitalist country and the government is easily constrained by capital, the Li family still dominates Singapore's political circles and occupies the commanding heights!

"We don't have to pay attention to the good and bad influences, the most important thing is to develop ourselves, if the Lee family is strong and Singapore is strong, there will only be a good impact. ”

Li Yao said lightly.

Li Long was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, nodded heavily, and said, "Dad, I understand!"

Strength is everything, only the weak will consider the impact!

"Well, it's good to understand!"

Li Yao said with a slight bow.

"It's almost time for school to start, when are you going to leave?"

After this topic came to an end, Li Yao asked with a kind smile and concern.

"Dad, I'm going to leave the day after tomorrow and go some time in advance to get used to the environment around the school. ”

Li Long said softly.

"Well, it's good if you have a plan, this study is very important to you, you must study hard, after you return from your studies, I will arrange for you to serve in the armed forces, don't let me down!"

Li Yao admonished.

"I won't let you down!"

Li Long nodded heavily and reassured.

This time, Li Long will go to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas, to take part in a military course related to army command and staff officers.

This is the route that Li Yao planned for him from the beginning, just to let Li Long improve himself so that he can take over his class in the future.

According to the course of history, it is indeed as Li Yao planned to be.

Upon his return, Lee was appointed Chief of Staff and Director of Joint Operations and Planning of the Singapore Armed Forces, and was promoted to Brigadier General in June 1984 before resigning from the military in September of the same year to serve as Political Secretary to the Minister of Defence.

After that, according to the plan, they continued to develop in the political and military two terms, until they finally became the third prime minister of Singapore, and the Lee family firmly controlled the three worlds of politics, military and business in Singapore.

All of this is inseparable from Li Yao's old scheming!
