Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Feast of the Hung Gate
Song Anshi always kept a smile on his face when he said these words, but Pang Jindong could read the meaning of the threat in them. Pang Jindong was once worried that Song Anshi would thoroughly investigate his background, but because many established facts could not be changed or disguised, Pang Jindong could only let it go.
Pang Jindong looked at Song Anshi calmly and smiled, and asked unhurriedly: "Since Mr. Song knows that Zhengdong Real Estate belongs to the Shen family, he should know something about the Shen family, right?"
"I can't say I understand, but I've heard about ......"
Pang Jindong interrupted Song Anshi's words: "There are actually only two people in the Shen family - father Shen Hao and daughter Shen Jiayao, does Mr. Song know these two people?"
Song Anshi shook his head and replied, "I haven't seen Shen Hao, I have only had a few encounters with Shen Jiayao." Song Anshi's answer was very simple, he didn't understand the purpose of Pang Jindong's question, and wanted to see what Pang Jindong would say and do next.
Pang Jindong no longer talked to Song Anshi, but took out his mobile phone and called up Shen Jiayao's number to show him, and then called Shen Jiayao.
"What's the matter?" Shen Jiayao's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone.
Pang Jindong put the phone on the table, set the call to hands-free, and then asked, "I accidentally deleted my godfather's phone just now......
"You...... Heartless, heartless ......" Shen Jiayao looked a little dissatisfied with Pang Jindong, but still said the phone number.
Pang Jindong didn't really forget his godfather's phone, but wanted Song Anshi to know his relationship with Shen Hao. Since Song Anshi only has a certain impression of Shen Jiayao, this authenticity can only be determined through Shen Jiayao.
After Shen Jiayao said that, Pang Jindong asked with concern: "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay......" Shen Jiayao said, yawning. "I was so sleepy just now, I took a nap. β
Pang Jindong asked teasingly: "Yourself?"
"Get out!"
Without waiting for Shen Jiayao to say something more ugly, Pang Jindong immediately hung up the phone.
"You don't think I'm just looking for someone to pretend to be Mr. Shen, right?" asked Pang Jindong with a smile as he dialed the phone.
Song Anshi hurriedly shook his head, and his smile began to become a little embarrassed.
Shen Hao quickly picked up the phone and asked kindly, "Happy, what are you doing?"
"It's nothing, I'm idle at home, I miss my godfather!"
"Godfather misses you too! If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't get out of here, I would go back to China early in the morning to see you!"
Pang Jindong chatted with Shen Hao's parents for a long time before reluctantly hanging up the phone. At this time, when I looked at Song An again, he was already sweating, and his smile began to exaggerate, changing from embarrassment to flattery.
Song Anshi asked embarrassedly: "It turns out that Mr. Shen Hao is yours...... Father-in-law?" probably he thought that the name of his godfather and godson was too clichΓ©, but he didn't know what other words should be used to describe the relationship between Pang Jindong and Shen Hao, so he came up with such a word.
Pang Jindong thought to himself: "Father-in-law, what about the Golden Retriever Lion King!, but I'm not Zhang Wuji!" Pang Jindong said lightly: "Actually, I didn't want others to know, but since Mr. Song doubts my strength, I can only explain it with this small thing." β
"Little things ......" Song Anshi couldn't help but feel very embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "Heaven and earth conscience, I don't doubt Brother Pang's meaning. When I knew that Brother Pang was a small clerk in Zhengdong Company, I had a guess, so I wanted to ask if my guess was correct!"
"Oh?
"The successors of many wealthy families have to go to the grassroots level to exercise before they take up formal positions. After a pause, Song Anshi asked, "Am I guessing right?"
Pang Jindong replied noncommittally: "I just hope that Mr. Song understands that my godfather will fully support me in doing anything." β
Song Anshi looked at Pang Jindong and asked cautiously, "Don't you know that Mr. Shen Hao also came back from abroad?"
"It seems that I still don't feel at ease! Liars are most worried about being deceived!" Pang Jindong felt amused in his heart, but replied with a straight face on the surface: "My family is not overseas Chinese, but emigrated abroad when I was young. My godfather and my parents were friends with my little friends, and when I was born, he was my godfather. β
"I see, that's the case......" Song Anshi nodded vigorously. Although he no longer doubted Pang Jindong's strength, he still asked uneasily: "Another day, should we go to that land together and investigate the scene?"
"Actually, before Mr. Song and I formally signed the contract, not only should I go to the scene with Mr. Song a few more times, but I should also give Mr. Song these two certificates to Mr. Song. But ......" Pang Jindong said this, and he paused intentionally.
Song Anshi was anxious to know the answer, and immediately asked, "Is there anything wrong with Brother Pang?"
"As for this land, I will definitely be able to take it, brother. However, there are too many people who covet it, so it won't be too smooth. I'm not afraid to tell you honestly, these two certificates are still being processed, but they're coming down. β
Pang Jindong said this, it was through guΓ² to comply with the other party's suspicion to increase his credibility, Song Anshi really hit the plan, and hurriedly said: "It's all up to the elder brother to operate, the elder brother trusts you!"
"Mr. Song's suspicions are justified!" Pang Jindong smiled and said calmly: "In business, these things should be handled carefully. β
Pang Jindong and Song Anshi said something painlessly, and then got up and said goodbye. When he walked out of the box, Pang Jindong found that there were many people standing in the corridor outside, although they all pretended to be casual, but their eyes were always intentional and unintentional to look at themselves.
After leaving the hotel, Pang Jindong immediately called Jin Lingling: "Help me with one thing, check what Song Anshi has to do with society - that is, on the road!"
"I don't need to check this, I can sue you now!" Jin Lingling smiled and replied: "When Li Wenlong rectified my father, I wanted to treat him as a person, so I investigated all the relationships between him and his relatives in this regard. β
"You're really thoughtful enough!" Pang Jindong also smiled and urged: "Sue me quickly"
"When Li Wenlong was in office, he acted as a protective umbrella for many underworld forces, and Song Anshi at that time also followed the wind and water, which can be called eating both black and white. However, after the fall of Li Wenlong, those underworld forces that had been under his shadow were also uncovered and severely attacked. Of course, it is not ruled out that there are fish that have slipped through the net, but now he is afraid of Song Anshi, and he doesn't dare to get involved with him anymore. β
"In other words, now Song Anshi has nothing to rely on in the underworld?"
"Not all of that!" Jin Lingling thought for a while and told Pang Jindong: "If the information I have at hand is correct, there is a small group of people who are still loyal to him in the bar street." These people are fellow villagers with Li Wenlong and Song Anshi, and they are very righteous. Their leader was almost prosecuted for harming others, but he was successfully exonerated under the operation of Li Wenlong, so they are grateful to Dade to this day. β
"So, what is the strength of these people?"
"The scale of this gang is very small, and there are only a dozen members of the fixed organization, and the main source of income is to watch the field and collect protection money. There are a lot of these gangs in Pub Street, and they're just a very inconspicuous part of them. β
"What's the name of this gang?"
"No name!"
Pang Jindong asked strangely: "What kind of gang is it without a name?"
Jin Lingling sighed and said, "You have been abroad for too long and don't know much about the situation at home. As a matter of fact, there are no triad organizations in the true sense of the word on the mainland, and some are only triad organizations or various criminal gangs. To put it simply, the difference between the two is that the former has a strict organizational system, hierarchical division and division of responsibilities, while the latter does not. However, 'triad criminal organizations' is not a strict legal term, and the term commonly used in the international community is 'organized crime'. The real underworld organizations on the mainland, such as the Green Gang and the Red Gang, all have a long history. It was cleaned up in the early days of the founding of the country. However, there have been some signs of recovery over the years. β
"Understood!" After a pause, Pang Jindong teased: "Recently, you have enriched your business knowledge!"
"Hmph!" Jin Lingling snorted lightly and said dissatisfiedly: "Since the last time I was ridiculed by you for not understanding hooliganism, I have learned a lesson!"
