Chapter 414: Shadows
After drinking two glasses, Wang Chuanli also let go a lot, and he didn't talk as scrupulously as he did at the beginning, and began to discuss some details with Li Xing.
"Although the real estate situation is not as good as before, no matter where it is placed, it is still a big piece of fat, and if you want to win this piece of fat, it is far from enough to rely on funds alone, and you need local support. β
He said in a deep voice.
Li Xing nodded slightly, motioning for him to continue.
"To be honest, the network of contacts I have managed over the years is mainly in my hometown of Donglai, and there are not many people I know in this part of Annan, so if you want to acquire land for development, I am afraid that you need your support to succeed. β
Wang Chuanli was also subtle, and directly singled out.
Real estate is a traditional industry, I don't know how many people are fragrant in the eyes, the interests are complicated, if you don't get the right relationship, you just pay more than others, you can't get the land you want.
This is especially true in the small counties below.
"I know that, too. Li Xing looked at Yang Shilong, and it was about this that he wanted to ask him, "Uncle, do you know which ones are the main ones in that place in Gaocheng?"
"Gao Cheng, that's really a coincidence. When Yang Shilong heard this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "Speaking of which, you are also very familiar, that is the Wu family." β
"Wu family?" Li Xing's heart moved slightly, and he quickly thought of a name, "Wu Zhenglong." β
"That's right, it's Mayor Wu. Yang Shilong nodded.
Li Xing suddenly understood.
The Wu family is an old aristocratic family in Dongsheng City, with a lot of background, and the head of the family, Wu Zhenglong, is one of the current deputy mayors of Dongsheng City.
Soon after he became the head of the door, the Wu family's son was also invited to get engaged, but he didn't expect that the wedding banquet was used to design a scene to frame him, and he was made a big fuss by an awakened person, and when he arrived, he personally took action to kill the awakened person.
The Wu family formed a friendship with him because of this, although he didn't care at all.
Now it seems that the so-called friendship is not useless.
"Do you have Wu Zhenglong's phone number? Li Xing asked.
"Yes, yes, but ......" Yang Shilong took out his mobile phone, looked at the table of dishes that had been moved, and frowned, "Are you going to let him come over like this?"
"No, I don't. Li Xing took the phone with a casual expression, "Just talk to him on the phone, you don't need to call him over for this little thing." β
Yang Shilong shook his head and stopped talking.
Wang Chuanli next to him was also dumbfounded when he heard it, he had also heard of the name of Wu Zhenglong, and he could be regarded as a top magnate in Dongsheng City, but such a big man was like a follower who could be waved around at will in Li Xing's mouth.
The power embodied in it made Wang Chuanli, who has always prided himself on being well-informed, secretly speechless.
Wu Zhenglong, who received a call from Li Xing, still rushed over in person.
Things went smoothly on the Gao Cheng side, and Wu Zhenglong readily agreed first when he was on the phone, and after coming to the box, he asked Li Xing about his general intentions.
Li Xing was not for that benefit, and after revealing this intention, although Wu Zhenglong was a little confused about his specific purpose, it also made the whole conversation easier and easier, and soon the cooperation matters were really determined.
Other specific details were handed over to Wang Chuanli to discuss with the people of the Wu family.
With the promise of the Wu family, all the documents and procedures will be smooth all the way, and the bank loans will follow, and there will be no need for those cumbersome examinations.
When all this is done, the rest is Wang Chuanli's work.
After talking about business in just a few words, the next thing is the pure drinking game, Wu Zhenglong is so concerned about his own affairs, Li Xing is not good to just withdraw and leave, plus Yang Shilong is also there, anyway, there is nothing to do, so he also accompanied them to drink.
......
Times Square.
On the busy road, a taxi pulled out of the traffic, gradually slowed down, and stopped on the side of the road.
The door opened and the driver stepped out of the car.
The driver was a middle-aged man with a fat body and slightly bald hair, wearing a pair of brown sunglasses.
After getting out of the car, he took off his sunglasses, looked up at the building, and nodded slightly after seeing the four big words "Times Building" on it.
Then he didn't even close the door, he walked straight to the building, and threw the taxi with the door open on the side of the road.
After entering the building, he went directly to the elevator and pressed the button on the tenth floor.
The elevator stopped and started all the way, and soon reached the tenth floor.
Except for a cinema on the 10th floor of the building, the rest are all hot pot, steak and other restaurants, which have a variety of styles and a variety of special restaurants, which are very popular with young people.
As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, there was a smell mixed together.
The driver was clearly not here to eat, he looked up a few times and soon found the "safe exit" direction sign.
Following the signs, it didn't take him long to find the stairwell, and he grabbed the handle of the fire door and twisted it gentlyβ
"Click!"
The lock of the tight lock is released automatically.
He pushed open the fire door, walked into the hallway, and walked up the stairs, the scene immediately visible to the staff of the branch through the camera.
"Group A: Note. The monitoring staff turned on the headset and said in a calm tone, "The fire door on the tenth floor seems to be unlocked, and another customer has entered the corridor by mistake, please deal with it quickly." β
"Roger. β
Wang Qi, who was dressed as a security guard, put down his headset, looked at his companion and said strangely: "No, I remember that when we were patrolling in the morning, wasn't it locked on the tenth floor?"
Although he wears a security uniform, he is actually an ordinary member of the Division's combat team, and in addition to various combat missions, these ordinary members are also responsible for the security work of the Division.
Today, it will be his turn to be on duty, and he will be in charge of the outer area of the branch.
"Maybe someone walked from there and forgot to close it again. The companion stared intently at the phone, and operated the game quickly with both hands, "I'm going to play a group now, you can go and watch it alone." β
"Be careful not to be seen by the boss, his territory has just been assigned to the new E-class boss, you know how angry he has been lately, don't hit the muzzle. β
Wang Qi had long been accustomed to the paddling of his companions on patrol, and after casually admonishing him, he walked towards the corridor alone.
Anyway, there are too many things like forgetting to lock the fire door, causing customers to enter the corridor by mistake, once or twice a month, and the branch has long been accustomed to this situation, and it is naturally impossible for these people below them to pay attention to it.
Coming to the corridor, Wang Qi walked down, and soon saw a man walking up below.
"Sir, please stop!" he immediately shouted, and at the same time quickened his pace and trotted down, "It's not a mall, it's the office area of another company, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. β
As he spoke, he had come to the driver's side and stretched out his hand to make a gesture of reply.
"You can't go up above, please go back ......"
Before Wang Qi's words were finished, his voice stopped abruptly.
Because the driver looked up at him quietly.
The moment the driver raised his head, a change occurred-
A cloud of pitch black poured out from the depths of his eyes, directly dyeing the originally ordinary pupils into a strange ink color, and even the pupils disappeared, like a bottomless black abyss.
After being stared at by this pair of strange eyes, Wang Qi's brain suddenly shook, and he only felt that his entire soul was sucked into it by that pair of strange eyes, and then the whole person's consciousness fell into darkness.
In the outside world, his eyes were also covered by the same ink, and his pupils turned into that strange dark color.
The whole process happened very quickly, and it was over in a split second.
After the change ended, the darkness in Wang Qi's eyes quickly faded, hidden in the depths of his eyes, and the whole person's expression became calm.
If there is a third person here, you will find that Wang Qi and the driver's expressions are exactly the same, as if carved out of a mold, synchronized to a weird point.
In the monitoring room, the monitoring personnel looked at the surveillance screen, and after the members of Group A arrived, the customer who had "entered by mistake" had already begun to return, so they withdrew their gaze and no longer paid attention to the situation over there.
At the same time, "Wang Qi" also walked back, and soon returned to his companion.
The companion was still busy playing with his mobile phone, his hands were quickly operating on the screen, and he subconsciously looked up after hearing his footsteps.
"Processed ......"
Termination of discourse.
The companion saw a pair of strange eyes that were as black as ink.
The scene in the corridor was repeated again, and the eyes of his companions were dyed with that strange dark color.
There was no dialogue, neither of them said a word, and in silence they staggered apart, each walking in one direction of the passage.
The companion walked all the way to the end of the passage, and after turning two corners, he didn't take a few steps before two members of the battle team dressed as security guards came to the bend in front of them.
Seeing that the members of the team who were supposed to patrol the area of Area A came to their area, the two members of the combat team also looked strange, but before they could ask, they saw that the opponent's pupils had become pitch black.
Almost at the same moment, the darkness appeared in the eyes of the two of them.
This time, the three of them walked forward and then separated again at the next intersection, repeating the process when they met others.
The same scene also happened in the direction chosen by "Wang Qi".
More and more branch members are assimilated, and as more members are assimilated, the rate of assimilation is getting faster and faster.
And from the eleventh floor, it continues to spread towards the upper floors.
It's like an outbreak of a new type of virus, spreading rapidly in the branch, and the spread of the infection is crazy.
As for what is happening now, the rest of the branch members who have not yet been assimilated are still in the dark.
The entire branch is gradually shrouded in a shadow.
