Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Final Battle
Although He Tianyou mobilized the entire company staff to crack the garbled code, he did not get a decent answer. Impetitive, he decided to call a codebreaker to solve the siege. As soon as I opened the telephone keypad, I noticed such a detail - there are letters on each number key.
"Could the letters in the combination represent the numbers on the phone buttons?"
With doubts, He Tianyou converted the letters in the combination into numbersββ- 37.55, 143.85.
"The target location is two sets of numbers, is it the coordinates?"
He Tianyou entered the numbers into the search engine, and finally came up with the answer he wanted, the direction on this set of coordinates is indeed a small town located in the suburbs of Melbourne - Tulsa.
"Zhang Wendi, it seems that I have seen through your clever tricks, this time you really won't die!" He Tianyou didn't have time to celebrate, he had to rush to Tulsa before Zhang Wendi.
Driving all the way, He Tianyou finally came to the location where the coordinates were displayed, a coastal wasteland in the town of Tulsa. He Tianyou stood on the wasteland and looked around, there was no one in the wilderness, only some seabirds hovering over here, but in He Tianyou's eyes, he had already seen a valuable opportunity to cooperate with the White Company, as well as his social status that was about to rise to the top, and even proudly saw the green banknotes covered all over the ground. According to the billboard on the land, He Tianyou found the agent of this treasure land.
At this time, it was already 4:50 p.m., and the agent was about to leave work. I saw He Tianyou crawling in, and shouted out of breath:
"Quick...... Coastal wasteland...... Bid! β
After He Tianyou explained his intentions, an intermediary agent quickly invited He Tianyou into the conference room and communicated with the landowner.
"Mr. He, I just contacted the seller, and the seller's offer is 30 million."
After He Tianyou heard this, he was so surprised that he squirted out all the coffee he had just drunk in his mouth.
"What? Million? Just such a piece of broken land dares to sell for 30 million, you look at the desolate appearance around you, you help me remine, fifteen million! β
The agent had no choice but to continue lobbying for the commission, but the result could not make He Tianyou happy.
"The seller said the lowest price was 28 million, and it couldn't be lower."
After hearing this, He Tianyou scratched his head vigorously and said:
"You wait a minute, I'm going to make a call, and then I'll talk to you."
He Tianyou settled down and dialed Anne's phone first.
"Hey, has Wendi Zhang been moving recently?"
"Haven't we already written it off, why are you still calling and harassing me?"
"Don't talk nonsense, don't forget that your wonderful video is still in my hands, say it quickly!"
"I heard that Mr. Zhang is going to talk about buying land tomorrow, but I don't know ......where it is."
"Tomorrow? So fast? Okay, I got it. β
He Tianyou hung up the phone and felt that it was not too late to buy the land, because Zhang Wendi was very likely to buy the land tomorrow. In order not to let his plans go down the drain, he must take this land today. So he called the lady of Huanghan again.
"Hey, baby, listen to me, I already know the lot that White Company is going to develop, and I am ready to buy this land first, which will cost about twenty-eight million."
"What? How can Huanghan have so much money, what land dares to be so expensive? β
"It's not expensive at all, and I estimate that the market value of this land will at least triple once the White Company's plans for the resort are revealed. Even if Old White is not willing to cooperate with us at that time, we can sell him the land at a high price. Besides, White's development plan funds are often over 100 million, and I don't care about this little money at all! β
"Okay then, but I don't have that much money in my account right now?"
"It's okay, if you take a loan from the bank in the name of Huanghan, it must be no problem!"
He Tianyou hung up the phone and returned to the agency with confidence.
"Tell the seller, 28 million, deal!"
The next day, He Tianyou came to the land agency with the loan amount approved by the bank, and the intermediary agent had been waiting for a long time with the contract signed by the seller. During the transaction, He Tianyou kept looking out the window, lest Zhang Wendi appear in time to stop the transaction. After verifying with the bank, the transaction between the two parties is officially concluded. He Tianyou walked out of the intermediary with the land purchase contract, but happened to meet Zhang Wendi, who had just arrived.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhang, an upstart in the real estate industry? Why are you doing in this backwoods? β
"Hello God, I'm here to help Mr. White see a piece of land......"
"I don't think you need it, -37.55, 143.85, I know, it's the coordinates! Why did you leak your secrets so carelessly? I just bought that piece of land two minutes ago, and I'll see how you pay for it this time! β
Wendi stared at He Tianyou's arrogant smiling face, exhaled deeply, and bit his lip tightly.
Back at Halo Real Estate, Wendi Zhang called Anne to the office as soon as possible, only to see Anne walk in with a letter of resignation that had already been typed in her hand.
"I'm sorry Mr. Zhang, I am applying for resignation."
"It turns out that you really leaked that report to Huang Han!"
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" said Anne hurriedly threw down her resignation letter and slipped out of the real estate company. Only Wendi Zhang was left sitting in the president's office, patting his head and sighing.
Shu Ya, who had already filed for divorce, was in a very low mood, and Xinyan didn't want to see her fall like this, so she took Shu Ya to Chinatown for a walk, and comforted her along the way:
"Okay, if you take half of Zhang Wendi's property, you can be regarded as a rich woman, what kind of man can't find it then?"
"I've already said that I don't want any of his money, just let me be free."
"You stupid, didn't you listen to what you said on TV, since you can't get his heart, then take his gold. Your best years have been on him, and you haven't gotten it to the last child, I'm really not worth it for you. β
"You also said that my best years were all on him, can these be measured by money? Alas, when a man has money, he can't be relied on......"
I saw that Shu Ya's speech speed was getting slower and slower, and finally stopped at all, staring straight into the distance.
"Shu Ya, Shu Ya, what's wrong with you?"
I saw Shu Ya pointing straight ahead in a daze and said:
"Damn, it's really a narrow road!"
Xinyan looked in the direction of Shu Ya's finger and saw Anne, who had just resigned, hurrying across the road with a cup of coffee.
"Okay, Shu Ya, the old lady helped you pick the skin of this foreign vixen today!"
Before Shu Ya could react, Xinyan had already rushed all the way to the other side of the road, kicking Anne in the back, Anne fell to the ground, and the hot coffee spilled all over her body, making Anne scream. Xinyan didn't stop, then grabbed Anne's hair, slapped her several times, and scolded:
"You slut who robbed other people's husbands, my mother really wants to scratch your face!"
At this time, Shu Ya also rushed over, grabbed Anne's collar, and said:
"The road is narrow, you didn't expect to run into me, did you?"
By this time Anne had turned pale with fright, and cried out:
"Don't beat Mrs. Zhang, you really didn't seduce your husband!"
Anne was led into a corner and cried and told the truth of the whole affair:
After He Tianyou returned to Huanghan, he wanted to destroy Halo Real Estate, so on the one hand, he hired a private detective to investigate Wendi, and on the other hand, he found someone to get Anne drunk and took an indecent video, so as to blackmail Anne into becoming his internal response. The Hotel 503 Incident, the Poisoning Incident and the Anonymous Video Tape Incident were all planned by He Tianyou, in order to drive a wedge between Wendi, Shu Ya and Huixin, and take the opportunity to bring down Halo Real Estate.
After listening to Annie's words, Shu Ya suddenly realized.
"It turns out that Wendy has never betrayed me, and I have always failed to believe him!"
"Why are you talking so much, let's send this * to the police station!" Xinyan said while puffing on the smoke ring.
"Don't, Mrs. Zhang, everything is instigated by He Tianyou, I have made audio recordings and records of this, I can give you all this evidence, please don't send me to the police station!"
Shuya followed Anne to get the evidence, and hurried home, but she lingered at the door of the house for a long time, and she didn't know how to face Wendy. When Wendy was in the mire, he did not help him get out of the predicament, but chose to stay away. Shu Ya paced back and forth outside the courtyard wall, wanting to put the USB flash drive containing the evidence in the mailbox, but she was afraid of losing it, and wanted to deliver it in person, but she felt that she had no face to see Wendi.
"You're back! Why don't you go in? β
Just as Shu Ya was hesitating, Wendi was already standing behind her, still holding Xiao Hei at her feet.
"What a cute dog, when did you get it?" Shu Ya said and hugged Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei also seemed to know that Shu Ya was a member of the family, and naughtily stuck out her tongue and licked Shu Ya's face.
"I picked it up on the street a while ago, and I don't know if I picked it up or if it picked it up."
Shu Ya blushed, walked up to Wendi, and said:
"I'm sorry, Anne has told me everything, I must admit that I am an incompetent wife, and I should be behind you at the most critical moment. But I have brought all the evidence of He Tianyou's crime, I hope it will help you. β
"Don't talk about that, the most important thing is that you're back, it's better than anything else. Our time in this world is very short, what is the use of so much fame and fortune? In the end, I just need someone who can accompany me to old age. Maybe I really made a lot of mistakes and hurt a lot of people before. But I want you to know that everything I do is for the better life of the person I love. There is no one word in this world that is better than one word - love! β
Shu Ya listened to Wendy's words, burst into tears, and hugged Wendy tightly.
Wendi and Shuya finally got back together, and Wendi began to face up to his depression and began to take targeted medication. This made Wendy's illness somewhat better, and at least allowed him to be better equipped to handle the development of the resort. In a blink of an eye, it was time for the resort to officially prepare for construction, and Wendy came to White Company with a detailed cooperation plan. As soon as I walked into the elevator, I found that He Tianyou was also holding the plan in his hand, standing in the elevator, and he was full of confidence.
The two just stood side by side, waiting for the elevator to climb all the way, He Tianyou glanced at Zhang Wendi next to him, and said:
"I didn't even get the land, and I was embarrassed to send the plan, I really don't know what to do! Could it be that you're here to congratulate me today? β
Wendy always looked straight ahead, and said with a smile:
"Once you're in White, you'll know."
"Hmph, now that the land ownership is in my hands, I don't believe that you Zhang Wendi can still play any tricks!"
"Once you're in White, you'll know."
He Tianyou was puzzled by Wendi's answer, so he hurriedly asked again:
"Zhang Wendi, what kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"
At this time, Zhang Wendi finally turned his head and said the same thing to He Tianyou with a smile:
"I said, enter the White Company, and you will know."
And just like that, the two appeared at Mr. White's desk at the same time. Mr. White took off his reading glasses, looked at them separately, and said:
"Gentlemen, what we are going to talk about today is the resort development plan in the suburbs of Melbourne, although Mr. Zhang Wendi has been my partner before, but earlier I received a call from Mr. He Tianyou, saying that he has a heavyweight bargaining chip in his hand and wants to negotiate with me, is that so, Mr. He?"
"Yes, Mr. White, I know that your company has chosen a location for vigorous development, so as the owner of this land, I am confident that I have the opportunity to work with a large company like the White Group."
"The owner of the land? You mean you've already bought the piece of land I want to develop in advance? β
"Yes, Mr. White, this is the cooperation plan drawn up by our Huanghan Group, please take a look." As he spoke, he handed over the plan in his hand.
Old White took He Tianyou's plan, skimmed it quickly, and then said to He Tianyou:
"Mr. He, first of all, I regret the illness of the president of your Huanghan Company, and I also see a lot of sincerity in your company's plan, but the most important thing is that the land mentioned in your plan is not the target location I want to develop."
"What?" He Tianyou couldn't believe his ears. "Impossible, that's where the coordinates appear in the report?"
"It's a pity Mr. He, it seems that we can only find a chance to cooperate next time." Old White finished speaking, and turned to Wendy again. "Mr. Zhang, is the Halo Company's cooperation fund in place now?"
"Yes sir, because the Huanghan Group, to which Mr. He belongs, bought an abandoned wasteland of our company for about 30 million two weeks ago, the cash flow problem of Halo Real Estate has been basically solved."
Zhang Wendi's answer surprised He Tianyou on the side.
"What, the seaside wasteland I bought earlier is yours?"
"He Tianyou, don't you know that the Victorian government has announced that there will be no plans to develop that rotten piece of land in Tulsa in the next five years? Mr. White has been in the real estate business for more than 40 years, you don't really think he will go against the will of the state government, do you? The real location of our resort is in the suburbs of the Southeast District, not the Northwest District where you bought it. This time, thanks to you, you bought my worthless wasteland for a whopping twenty-eight million, otherwise I wouldn't have enough money to continue working with Mr. White. β
At this time, He Tianyou's eyes were already red with anger, and he roared at Wendi:
"Zhang Wendi, you liar, I was deceived twice by you in the same way!"
"Don't blame me, if you don't steal my land survey report, nothing will happen, you are called a cocoon!"
He Tianyou was annoyed and angry, and swung his fist at Wendi, only to see Wendi dodge and choke He Tianyou's throat with his hand.
"You poisoned me and provoked my relationship with my wife, and I haven't settled accounts with you yet! I can't wait to strangle you here! β
Seeing that He Tianyou was about to be choked, Old White hurriedly shouted:
"Zhang, don't be impulsive. Come on, call the security guard! β
The two security guards used all their strength to pull Wendi, who was choking He Tianyou, away, and then Old White pointed at He Tianyou and said:
"Get this guy out of my company!"
"I don't think so!" I saw two people in suits walking in outside the door, and after showing their documents to He Tianyou, who was standing by the security guard, he said:
"Mr. He Tianyou, we are the Australian Federal Police, and now you are suspected of deliberately causing bodily harm, intimidation and extortion, and falsifying government documents, please go back with us to investigate......"
At the moment when he was tortured away by the police, He Tianyou was still shouting:
"Zhang Wendi, as long as I don't die, I will make you uneasy!"
It was another rainy day, and the air was damp and cool, just like the weather on the day Wendy had just landed in Melbourne, but eight years had passed in the blink of an eye. Zhang Wendi has grown from a milky hairy boy to today's upstart in the Australian real estate industry. Standing in the tallest office building on Collins Street in Melbourne's city centre, Wendy carefully watched the headline in The Sun:
Melbourne Royal Properties Limited owes huge debts and filed for bankruptcy this morning......
Guan Huixin walked in and said:
"It turns out that you are also reading the newspaper, and I want to inform you of the good news of Huanghan's bankruptcy!"
Zhang Wendi turned around with a smile and said to Guan Huixin:
"Do you know Sister Huixin, being able to move to the highest office to work used to be my biggest dream. Now that Halo Real Estate has settled here, my wish has come true. I really wronged you before, if it wasn't for you as a bitter trick, He Tianyou wouldn't have taken the bait at all. You and Zhou Wei are both good people, noble people in my life, and I owe you both too much. As compensation, I have decided to quit the management of Halo Real Estate and return Halo to you now, and we will split the income of all companies in the future, and you will be at the helm of this company. β
Wendi's sudden move made Guan Huixin at a loss, and asked in surprise:
"What are you talking about, Wendi, you really plan to retire at such a young age, in my opinion, you are a genius in real estate investment, you shouldn't quit so early."
Wendy smiled and continued:
"Sister Huixin, haven't you heard of it? There are no permanent winners in the investment market, and the only way to win is to leave early. It is the time to be off the marketοΌ β
Wendy walked out of the office building, feeling more relaxed than ever, he raised his head again, took a deep breath of air accompanied by broken rain, looked around at the towering buildings, and said to himself:
"Hello Melbourne, the place where this dream begins, but it will not be the place where my dream ends, from today onwards, I really have the opportunity to go to every corner of you."
Shu Ya was already waiting for him downstairs.
"How's it going, is it all over?"
"It's over!"
"Great, does that mean we can travel the world?"
"Uh......" Wendy chuckled and bit her lip again.
"Wait!" Shuya said, grabbing one of Wendy's ears.
"I've been with you for so many years, do you think I can't find out, you kid bites his lip when he moves badly. I'm telling you, if you don't take me around the world, I'm going to be ...... with you."
Wendy and Shuya chase each other through the streets of Melbourne, as if they are back in college days. At this time, the dark clouds that had hung over Melbourne for a long time finally dispersed, and the bright sun shone on every corner of the street.
