Chapter 122: Half of the shares are empty
In the lounge, Yelia sat on the sofa and chatted with Wu Kefan, and the translator Zhang Keyao sat behind the two of them, busy with Han to English and English to Chinese, and when he saw Li Guolou coming out, Wu Kefan said angrily: "Hey, Lord Bao, doesn't it take three or four hours for your meeting to start?" How did it end so quickly. I haven't met the French guests yet, Xiao Lizi has nothing to do with you here, and Translator Zhang boldly and bluntly said my love for Yelia. β
Li Guolou ignored everyone's teasing and said, "Dear Yelia, why don't you go home and rest?" Just tell your servant to stay here, and not get tired after sitting for so long? As he spoke, he reached out and picked Yelia up, learning the demeanor of an English gentleman, without twisting or pinching.
Yelia stood up gracefully, bent her knees slightly to say goodbye to several chiefs, and said, "I'm going to live with Mike for lunch, and your expenses for today are in my account." β
Several chiefs were happy and regretful, so they could only give Li Guolou a lunch time off, and ask Li Guolou to find them high-end prostitutes later.
Li Guolou was a little dissatisfied, and he didn't want to play the role of the turtle prince anymore, pointed at Zhang Keyao, and said: "Brother Zhang, the affairs of the three adults are handed over to you, you are such a big person, can't you bargain with foreign girls?" The chips are all in Xiao Wu's hands, you can use them. Yesterday you were new faces, and the foreign girl slashed you, don't make shallots today, and go home with more silver. βγ
As soon as Zhang Keyao asked if this was the case, the chips went to Wu Defu, patted his chest and smiled, and said, "Little plum is wrapped around me, Marilyn is good, I'll go and invite her to lunch first." "He wants to get started first, and after lunch, he is afraid that if Marilyn is invited by another gentleman, he will not have a chance.
Hearing this, Wu Defu turned his head to look at Bao Tong and said, "Why don't we also invite the three foreign girls to lunch together, anyway, someone will sign the bill for lunch." β
Wu Kefan hurriedly said: "Xiao Wu, do you still need to ask for instructions?" Let's go. After saying that, several people walked together shoulder to shoulder.
Bao is in the demeanor of a chief, walking at the back unhurriedly, and every time he engages in an event, he has a prostitute who picks a first-class product first, so he is never in a hurry.
Yelia looked at the backs of several Qing officials leaving, and said: "Mike, your commanders are very good, there is no arrogance at all, unlike our French nobles who walk with their heads held high all day long, and immediately reach out to take advantage of women when they meet them." Your friends are just joking, but they don't dare to do anything, and they are not as bold as you. β
Li Guolou looked up to the sky and smiled, stopped and said: "Yelia, you don't know who I am, I have been assimilated by the British, and I am the same as the British in my bones, and I will not let go when I meet beautiful beauties." β
Yelia hooked Li Guolou's arm, stared at Li Guolou with a pair of sapphire eyes, her eyelashes blinked, as innocent as a little girl, and said coquettishly: "Mike, I'm not hungry yet, let's go to lunch later, and finish half of the morning first." β
The two foreign gentlemen who passed by couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Li Guolou and Yelia, they both understood the deep meaning in English, and they could understand the expressions, the princess and princess at the ball had not diminished their enthusiasm until now, and they were too enthusiastic.
Li Guolou ignored the eyes next to him and said, "Dear Yelia, I'm afraid the time is too long, let's eat first, or ask the waiter to deliver the meal." β
Yelia's blue eyes were full of desire, reluctant to Li Guolou's delicate face, and nodded: "Well, I'll listen to Mike, let's deliver food at noon, and then have a bottle of champagne, and we will have a candlelight dinner in the evening." β
Li Guolou couldn't help but ask worriedly: "My dear, will Robinson come?" β
Yelia smiled and led Li Guolou away, and said, "What are you afraid of, this kind of thing is not allowed to happen here, even if Robinson knows that I am in your bed, he will not come." β
To catch an adulterer in bed is to have a fair and honest reason, how can a lover catch another lover's adultery? It is not suitable for reason and law, Li Guolou is still too young to have this kind of experience.
"Oh! It's paradise! Li Guolou understood that the people in the gold cave were protected.
Li Guolou and Yelia were lying on the bed, they did not pull up the thick curtains, only pulled a layer of white tulle, and the light outside the window shone in. Both naked people are looking at each other greedily.
After talking about love, they began to talk privately, and the two learned about each other's situation.
Yelia is thirty years old, has no children, Jingshi's bungalow is rented, and he also hires a foreign cook and charters a carriage, as well as a personal maid, (the cook and the maid are husband and wife) come to Jingshi to meet lovers. Robinson is a big businessman and has business dealings with White Shipping Company, it just so happens that Yelia has died of her husband, Robinson takes the initiative to care for Yelia's life, the two have been dating secretly for half a year, Yelia has begun to dislike Robinson for her more and more stingy, just have a better man to replace, so regardless of Robinson's feelings, he turned to Li Guolou's arms.
Yelia Wood stroked Li Guolou's arms and said, "Mike, actually, I watched you as soon as you appeared here, didn't you see it?" β
Li Guolou smelled Yelia's hair and said, "I'm a detective, and now I know." When I was playing sand crabs, you stood behind me and watched for a while, didn't you? β
Yelia raised her head and said coquettishly: "Count you smart, I hate it when I see you playing cards, I wipe my sweat when I lose this money, so many small actions are fake, so I know that you are going to win at a glance, you are a professional gambler." β
Li Guolou said: "I just like to gamble against criminals, as for gambling, I rarely participate, if I can make money as a professional gambler, are you afraid that I can't afford to support you?" β
Yelia Wood is used to living a luxurious rich life, looking for a lover is also looking for a rich man, there are rich people in the circle of activities, poor young men will not be Yelia Wood's choice, Yelia and Xie Xiuzhu are a type of woman, even if they are rich, they still want to be richer, and the goal of finding a start is deliberate.
Yelia said coquettishly: "Mike, I am a woman of status, and I am wronged to take a fancy to you. But if you want to marry me, first of all, you have to work hard, and second, you have to convert to Catholicism. β
Li Guolou sighed: "Yelia, even if I convert to Catholicism, the church will not bless us, we Qing people have committed the crime of bigamy, we can't get married in the church." β
Yelia came to her senses and said, "Forget it, let's talk about it later." Mike can soar in the past two years, I will marry you, faith can change at any time, I don't even bother to go to church now. β
Li Guolou said: "Yelia, you can't accept Robinson's money, I will let you live a noble life." And the White Shipping Company will go bankrupt one day, and you'd better withdraw your shares as soon as possible, even if you suffer a loss, otherwise you won't have anything before long. β
Yelia propped up her hands on the bed, glared and said angrily: "I just scolded Little White's lawyer away, and I want to eat back grass again, I don't want to." Angry breast enlargement trembled, as if Li Guolou was a bad person, beating her share idea and trying to cheat her out of money.
Li Guolou sighed and said: "Yelia, the current lawyers are different from the past, in the past, it was the aristocracy and the rich who became lawyers, and they had high thresholds and high fees, and they were also serious and responsible in doing things. Now the poor can also be lawyers, and the poor will do anything in order to become rich, and little White will make false accounts, make a big hole in the White Shipping Company, transfer the assets, and leave a mess of debts at that time, and there will be a leaky boat for you, and you will have to pay off the company's debts, and then you will not even be able to keep the bungalow in Tianjin. β
Yelia said angrily, "Then I'll take the business back." β
Li Guolou hugged Yelia in his arms and said, "Yelia, have you ever done business?" Will the shareholders approve of you being the general manager? The controlling stake has been firmly controlled by Little White, and now Little White is willing to give you this price to buy the shares in your hand, and I won't be able to see half of it next year, and you will jump into the Yellow Sea the year after tomorrow. β
Yelia asked, "Then why did Robinson never tell me?" β
Li Guolou was taken aback and asked, "Robinson knows your situation?" β
Yelia nodded, "Of course, I always have to talk to a man, and besides, Robinson is a big businessman, can I not ask him what he thinks?" β
Li Guolou asked, "Does Robinson own a stake in the White Shipping Company?" β
Yelia said, "One little, not much, just three percent. β
Li Guolou sneered: "Yelia is fortunate that you met me, Little White and Robinson are not good people, will the businessman not see the consequences?" Robinson spends a small amount of money with you and gets a greater benefit from Little White, has Robinson ever met with Little White alone? Since you know that Little White is not a good person, don't tie up with him to do business, half of the shares are empty. β
Yelia thought for a while and said, "Mike, I can see a little bit when you say it, Robinson seems to be short of money now, so he sold his house in Tianjin, saying that he moved to Beijing to develop, but why do you want such a large sum of money all of a sudden." Business is not as guaranteed as it used to be. β
"Robinson, a middleman, made a fortune by eating on both sides when the relationship between the two countries was not good, and now the foreigners and the Qing Empire are so good, the British minister Justin Lille directly came forward to negotiate with Prince Gong Yixun, and even the iron warship will be sold to our Qing Empire, you say how many chances Robinson has to make a fortune, Robinson is going downhill, and you are the right way to go to me." Li Guolou boasted to himself.
Yelia said coquettishly: "I don't value you for being rich, but for this." Yelia's hand went down little by little, and she couldn't see anything under the covers.
Li Guolou lowered his head and kissed Yelia deeply, the two clinged to each other again, a new round of journey began, there was a knock outside the door, Li Guolou said angrily: "Xiao Wu, you go to play sand crabs by yourself, I don't have time now." β
The chaotic footsteps outside the door were accompanied by hearty laughter, and the two figures in the room were still entangled, and the coquettish voice made the waiter stick to the door to steal the sound. Another waitress also came to eavesdrop, and the two waitresses looked at each other with red faces and hot ears, and then the two waiters walked into the storage room togetherΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
