Chapter 972: The Battle for Gambling Cards (6)
……
After checking it for a long time, Li Zekai was a little reluctant to return the Han brick inkstone to Liu Dong, "It's a pity that my appraisal level is limited, and I really can't see its authenticity, but purely from the perspective of material, it should be a Han brick inkstone, at least he is better than the Han brick inkstone of the Qing Dynasty writer Yuan Mei that my father bought for 1.35 million Hong Kong dollars from Christie's auction nine years ago! And the preservation is relatively complete, very rare!"
"It seems that Xiaodong has picked up a big leak again this time!" Li Zekai said, and Zhou Bin next to him said with envy.
"This Han brick inkstone is indeed missing, but I suffered a loss before!"
"Oh, suffer, who can make your shrewd guy suffer?" Zhou Bin said curiously.
Ever since he met Liu Dong, he had never seen Liu Dong suffer a loss, and he had always been in his hands to win! Moreover, he had repeatedly defeated strong enemies and made a lot of money, so much so that the wealth accumulated so far made Zhou Bin begin to look up.
"Alas, it's all because of it!" After sighing, Liu Dong pointed to the birdcage in his left hand at the moment.
But before he could continue, Jiang Tingting next to him had already 'crackled' like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and told Liu Dong in detail about his previous troubles.
If you don't think about carrying a birdcage in your hand, you can't put it in the mustard seed space. It will definitely be Zhou Bin if they ask. Liu Dong will not expose his shortcomings!
"Haha. I didn't expect you to fall into such a trap, Xiaodong, it's really unexpected!" Zhou Bin laughed unexpectedly after hearing this.
And Li Zekai next to him was also deeply surprised, he communicated with Liu Dong several times, and the biggest impression on him was the other party's calmness and stability, whether it was in the United States or in Hong Kong, the deeper he understood Liu Dong. Li Zekai understands his power more and more.
But what I didn't expect was that a young talent who killed all sides at the gambling table, won huge sums of money, and even had a close relationship with the top American giants, would actually stumble on ordinary experience mistakes.
"He is also a man of flesh and blood, how can he not make mistakes if he is a human being?" Li Zekai said in his heart.
During this time, Li Zekai, who was under pressure because of Liu Dong's outstanding medical skills and shocking business achievements, finally relaxed a lot!
"Don't patronize me, how are you?" Did you find any good objects?" Liu Dong was also deeply embarrassed by his troubles, and quickly changed the topic.
Hearing this, Zhou Bin and Li Zekai glanced at each other. The former said, "It's not like you're an appraiser yourself, so we didn't find anything good." But thanks to Zekai's familiarity with this place, I also bought a few good things under his recommendation, but they were all bought for money, but the price was much cheaper than the auction, and it can be regarded as a small leak!"
"Hehe, I'm doing my best to be a landlord, but it's not helping!" Li Zekai said politely.
"Something, I'll take a look!" Liu Dong said curiously.
"It's all here!" Zhou Bin patted the wooden box in his right hand, "However, if you want to see it, let's go back and see it, it's not convenient to have a lot of people here!"
The antiques he bought this time were not as hard as Liu Dong's Han brick inkstones, and if there was a mistake, it would be broken, or if one piece was swallowed, it would be a deplorable loss.
As an appraiser and collector, Liu Dong obviously knew this, so he did not object to Zhou Bin's words.
"By the way, I didn't see Mingyuan, wasn't he with you when he started?"
After looking left and right, and not finding Lu Mingyuan's existence, Liu Dong was surprised.
"Oh, Mingyuan's fourth uncle called just now, and the person has already arrived in Hong Kong, and Mingyuan is going to pick it up!" Zhou Bin said.
Looking at Liu Dong's thoughtful nod, Zhou Bin naturally understood what he was worried about, "Don't worry, Xiaodong! The people of the Lu family will not interfere in the cooperation between us, they have another important matter when they come to Hong Kong!"
Hearing this, Liu Dong breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, a casino makes more money, just look at the status of the He family in Macau today to understand that the wealth of more than 40 billion US dollars has been accumulated in 30 years, and no one can despise this industry!
According to Feng Jianhui's investigation, the 51 percent stake in his hand is conservatively estimated to bring him more than $500 million in profits every year! And it will rise rapidly with the development of the mainland economy, so although Liu Dong does not mind pulling Zhou Bin and them to make a fortune together, he is also unwilling to hand over the controlling stake in the Emperor Entertainment City.
Because according to the analysis of the think tank composed of Feng Jianhui and the presidents, CEOs and other senior managers of Liu Dong's major companies, these shares will bring him at least tens of billions of dollars in profits in the next ten years!
Therefore, Liu Dong's attitude towards Emperor Entertainment City has been less concerned at first, and it has become more attentive now!
It is precisely because of this that according to his strong desire to control his character, he does not want to let the controlling stake of Emperor Entertainment City lose from his hands. Therefore, he was very worried that the Lu family would intervene again! After all, the other party had a political advantage that he could not match!
"Let's go, let's go find that kid Li Yuncong, it's not too early, and it's time for lunch when we go back!" Zhou Bin's words fell.
And a few people naturally have no objection to this!
Although the afternoon card competition did not start until half past two, the rumbling stomach obviously could not wait until then.
Because Morro Street is a straight road, a few people are not afraid of missing Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen, as long as they keep walking along the road, they will always be found!
However, after the four of them walked fifty or sixty meters, they immediately found that there was a congestion in front of them, and hundreds of people gathered together to block the street.
"Something seems to have happened ahead?" Jiang Tingting said curiously.
"Let's go, go over and have a look!" Zhou Bin said.
Hearing this, the four of them subconsciously quickened their pace.
"I think you're crazy about money, just ask me for 2 million Hong Kong dollars for such a broken bottle, why don't you want 10 million, I really think I'm a fool, can't you see that you are touching porcelain?"
The familiar voice made Zhou Bin and Liu Dong glance at each other, and they both quickened their pace, separated the crowd and squeezed to the front.
Really!
The two people who had just squeezed to the front immediately saw Li Yuncong, who was excited and angry at the moment, and Zhuang Wen was following him, but obviously his face was not very good-looking.
Confronting the two was a young man wearing a dark green jacket and black trousers, the man was not tall, with a collapsed nose and small eyes, although he was not ugly, but he was definitely not handsome.
However, compared to the appearance, the other party's pair of mouse eyes swept over Zhuang Wen's occasional lewd-evil color is the most annoying.
Looking at the broken pieces of porcelain on the cement floor between the young man and Li Yuncong, before the combination, Liu Dong, who was very familiar with the doorway in the antique shop, immediately understood what was going on!
"Hehe, you say that touching porcelain is touching porcelain, who doesn't know that my rat strong things are genuine on this Moro Street, especially this Qianlong official kiln blue and white general jar, which I only bought from the mainland last month, just made a deal with Gu Chunxuan's boss Zhang for 2 million, but it was broken by you before you could get your hands on it! It is natural for you to lose money, even if the police come, you can't care!"
He had long understood from his accent that the two people in front of him were mainlanders, and they were well-dressed and had an extraordinary temperament, they were obviously rich masters, and they were the best targets for him!
Since the return of Hong Kong, there are more and more mainland tycoons who come to Hong Kong to travel, and they are all rich, and Morro Street is a must-visit place for almost all mainlanders, so Rat Qiang has really made a few good deals here!
Because he has a community behind him as a backer, and the mainlanders are not familiar with life in Hong Kong, after being cheated by him, coupled with the threat of force, four out of ten will obediently pay money to settle things!
And the courage of the rats who made money by touching porcelain has also become more and more big, from the initial tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, hundreds of thousands, to the current two million!
Hong Kong's numerous associations, coupled with the poor law and order environment, have become a breeding ground for all kinds of criminal activities, and the locals are even worse, and the powerless outsiders are the ones who suffer the most!
"Husband, there's no need to talk to her, call the police, wait for the police to come!" Zhuang Wen said with a sly face beside her.
"Hmm!"
After nodding, Li Yuncong immediately took out his mobile phone!
However, when touching porcelain, the person who wanted to extort money was not alone, so when Li Yuncong took the mobile phone, the guy named Mouse Qiang had already sent a signal to the accomplices in the crowd to do it!
Soon, three young strong men with various tattoos such as dragons, tigers, leopards, etc., who were not serious people at first glance, came out of the surrounding crowd.
"What do you want to do?" Li Yuncong obviously also noticed the ill-will of these people, his face changed, and he hurriedly blocked in front of Zhuang Wen and shouted loudly.
"Hehe, boy, if you obediently lose money today, our brothers will act as if nothing happened, otherwise...... Oops!"
"Bang bang, oops, ah!"
Just before the people around him could react, the rat Qiang, who was originally eyeing him, and the three big men with unkind expressions, still held their stomachs in pain and lay on the ground!
"Wenwen, are you all right?"
"Sister Ting!"
"Xiaodong, Brother Zhou!" Looking at the people behind them, Li Yuncong and Zhuang Wen shouted with surprise on their faces. And seeing Liu Dong, Li Yuncong was also relieved, and he had been friends for two years, Li Yuncong knew a lot about Liu Dong's ability, with him here, he and Zhuang Wen were safe today!
"Xiaodong, you must not let these bastards go easily today!" After comforting Zhuang Wen, Jiang Tingting raised her eyebrows.
Usually only they bully people, but when does it come to others to bully them, and they are still in Hong Kong, a land that belongs to China! (To be continued......
