The west embankment is large and at the same time small.

Not long after Jiachang put down the phone, the phone rang one after another. In just half an hour, I received more than 20 phone calls one after another.

There are Li family friends, childhood friends, Chaozhou villagers, and the same class or school. Even Wu Jingchen, the eldest son of Wu Dayuan, a wealthy businessman from Fujian and overseas Chinese, who had not met for more than ten years, called, and he didn't know which big mouth was afraid that the world would not be chaotic told him.

Ma Anyi, the second son of Ma Guoxuan, a cousin who is not related by blood and the head of the Chaozhou gang, is the most active, and has not yet decided where to put the party, and has already come to the party. His house lives across the street, and it's a bit close.

"Cousin, don't worry about it, who cares about eating and drinking now, I just look at the family."

That night, the man in front of him had gone with his father to the Pont Petain. After being taken home, he helped to ask for a doctor, and he tossed until the early hours of the morning before returning to rest.

Li Weimin was very grateful, glanced sideways at Chen's mother who went out after serving tea, and mysteriously leaned into his ear: "An Yi, there are some things that are inconvenient to say at home." ”

Swallowing his anger is to make money, and it is rare to be bullied like this by the soldiers of the Pingchuan faction. Chaozhou people are brave and ruthless, and if there is revenge, they will take revenge, and Ma Anyi directly thinks that he wants to take revenge.

What's the big deal about a few Qiu Ba, it's not to deal with "Seven Yuan". The West Pier is flooded with guns, and some are outlaws, and tens of thousands of Piasters can buy their lives.

Ma Anyi nodded slightly, and said with understanding: "If it's inconvenient at home, go to the theater, and the Hong Kong Red Star Cantonese Opera Troupe's master Hua Dan Red Line Girl is performing in Xintongqing." Vietnamese poor ghosts can't understand and can't afford tickets, so they generally don't go there, but they can't book a venue. ”

Listening to Cantonese and talking about business is a bit interesting.

And the red-line girl is too famous, creating a red-style Cantonese opera singing voice, a real art master. Later, Hong Kong star Eason Chan took photos with her and knelt half-to show respect for her senior.

Since there is this opportunity to "chase stars", Li Weimin naturally will not miss it, and when Liu Jiachang's family has notified the location one by one, he walked to the once lively Xintongqing Cantonese Theater.

The times are progressing, and society is developing.

With the advent of movies, drama gradually declined, and all the people who came to cheer were older Cantonese opera fans, and young people all went to cinemas such as "Da Guangming", "Entertainment", "Lido" and "Victory".

When "A River Flows Eastward" premiered at the Daguang Theater, it was shown more than a dozen times a day, for two months in a row, and the venue was full and full, setting off a craze for watching Chinese movies, and even Chinese school teachers in remote rural towns and towns in South Vietnam took turns to come back to see Baiyang and Tao Jin.

There are fewer and fewer theater fans, and business is not doing well.

The eldest young master of the Li family and the second son of the Ma family like Cantonese opera, and even want to charter the venue, Boss Wang is so happy that he hurriedly asks people to serve tea and snacks.

"For the people, I didn't expect you to have this elegance, it's late, don't mind."

As soon as the first guest sat down at the table, several more guests came one after another, one carefully looked at his face to see if the injury was serious, and the other laughed and said: "The country is easy to change its nature, and after so many years, it is almost a family and a groom, and it is still so impulsive, so strong." ”

I came back twice during my studies in the United States, and every time I came back, there was a party, they didn't change very much, and it was easy to get on the call, Li Weimin beckoned them to sit down, and said with a smile: "Chang Ming, Hongxin, don't make trouble, sit down and drink tea." ”

Wu Changming, the eldest son of the Wu family, said hello to Ma Anyi and Guo Jianzhang, shook his head and smiled: "For the people, if you don't die, you will have a blessing, and you should celebrate." Drinking alcohol is almost the same, what is drinking tea? ”

"yes, where to go, what kind of drama are you going to listen to?"

"Take a boat to Hong Kong at night, take a plane to the United States the day after tomorrow, you can't drink, and when you come back from the United States, I will accompany you to get drunk and rest."

"Going to the United States again?"

Without waiting for Li Weimin to speak, another group of guests arrived, the eldest young man of the Xu family, the second young man of the Lin family, the future heir of the Huang family...... the young master of the "Iron King" family, the successor of the "Rice King", and the heart of the "Rubber King".

If "Qiyuan" sends someone to kidnap them together, the embankment will definitely fry the pot.

If you are in the theater, you must not have an accident, and if something happens, you really don't want to live. Boss Wang was scared into a cold sweat, couldn't care about the stammering anymore, and hurriedly ran to the door to look at the wind.

Ma Anyi was like half a master, got up and clapped his hands and said: "Everyone, if you come, you will be safe, the eldest brother didn't say anything, don't talk nonsense, listen to the play!" ”

"Yes, yes, listen to the play, listen and talk at the same time."

With a burst of drumbeats, a Hua Dan with full makeup walked onto the stage from the side and sang: "Selling lychees, there is a red quilt outside the body, a light gauze and thin brocade and jade group, the entrance is luscious, and the fragrance of teeth and cheeks is rare in the world, what, but play tricks, please try something new, I will tell you." This is the best fruit in Lingnan, the king of fruits, everyone agrees......"

The song "Ode to Lychee" seems to be integrated with the Beijing dialect, Kun dialect and Western bel canto techniques, which is as smooth and sweet as flowing water, and the reverberation is very flavorful, which is the so-called "sweet honey" and "crisp and raw".

Ma Anyi, Wu Changming and other second ancestors shook their heads when they heard it, as if they liked Cantonese opera. The eldest young master of the Guo family really liked it, and he hummed along with an intoxicated face.

Wu Jingchen is the only Hokkien among them, with a special identity, and was arranged by Ma Anyi to be next to his future brother-in-law.

He took a sip of tea from his cup, and said casually: "For the people, you can't be so impulsive in the future, Lijun was almost scared to death, I heard that you were captured by 'Qiyuan', and hid in the room and cried all afternoon." ”

If the statistics of the Chinese Council do not differ much, 3% of the Chinese control more than 80% of the wealth of the Chinese in Vietnam. Those who can sit here can be said to be part of the 3%. In the near future, they will become a new generation of overseas Chinese leaders and become the richest people in Xidi.

They are the ones they must fight for, not to mention that the relationship with the person next to them is extraordinary, Li Weimin took a deep breath and asked again and again: "Big brother, is Lijun okay?" ”

Wu Jingchen glared at him fiercely, and said angrily: "I haven't had a letter or phone call over the years, and I haven't seen her face when I come back a few times, can she be okay?" ”

Perhaps living in the freedom-advocating United States for too long, the previous Li Weimin was extremely disgusted with arranged marriages, and he was as cold as a day for several years, and even ashamed, which really made the little girl who was ready to marry the Li family after being sensible and began to prepare to be a bride chill.

Facing the eldest brother's questioning, Li Weimin was embarrassed, and hesitated for a while before saying stupidly: "I'm sorry, I didn't know much before, and I disappointed my eldest brother and Lijun." ”

"I'm sorry and that's it, I'm nothing, the key is her. If you have a conscience, explain it to her yourself. ”

There are also very happy arranged marriages, isn't it just falling in love?

In his previous life, he was too unsuccessful, whether in his career or emotionally, Li Weimin did not dislike such a family marriage, but he felt that the other party was a little small, picked up the cup and smiled at Xu Dashao, and said quietly: "Go when you are done and give her a surprise." ”

The prodigal son turned around and didn't change his money, Wu Jingchen nodded with satisfaction: "It's almost the same, if you don't go again, I really think that you have changed your mind and want to be Chen Shimei." ”

Ma Anyi, like Liu Jiachang, shook his head on the surface, but in fact was paying attention to their every move. Seeing that the two of them didn't turn their faces because of Wu Lijun's matter, they suddenly turned around and said, "I have something I want to tell you for the people, and I want to ask the big guy for help." What is our relationship, either relatives or generations of friends, his business is our business, everyone says it? ”

"Yes, for the people, what is there to say directly."

"You're not polite to us, and we're not outsiders." Wu Changming, like Ma Anyi, thought that he was going to deal with those Pingchuan faction ruffians, and subconsciously glanced back, for fear that the wall would have ears.

"Then I'll be blunt."

I was going to take a boat to Hong Kong in the evening, and there was not so much time to delay, Li Weimin turned around and smiled: "Everyone, there is an opportunity to make a lot of money in front of me, but it's a pity that the old man is too rigid to take risks." As for me, I don't have much capital, so I can only talk to my brothers. ”

Ma Anyi was dumbfounded, and asked in surprise: "Didn't you clean up those bastards?" ”

"Isn't it telling everyone that I did it? The gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late, remember this account first, wait for the rumors to pass, wait for the young master Ben to be ready, and they will look good. ”

People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.

"Seven Distances" is powerful, with 16 battalions under his command, and controls the Saigon police, and now the revenge is to shoot himself in the foot.

Dragons give birth to dragons and phoenixes, there are no fools who can sit here, they are all carefully cultivated by each family, have received higher education, and will take over the business of the great family in the future. Wu Jingchen has even taken charge of his own affairs, assisting his father in running the family business while also serving as a member of the Chinese Council, and is the youngest of the five representatives of the Fujian Gang.

The brother-in-law ate a long one and knew that he could do something and not do something, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief, pondered for a moment, and asked lightly: "How much do you lack?" ”

"Of course, the more the capital, the better, I only have 100,000 US dollars on hand, and I can only take out 50,000 yuan, and the remaining 50,000 yuan is used for other purposes."

Following the old man to learn this and that all day long, Wu Changming was impatient early in the morning, and asked excitedly: "What kind of business, can you make money?" ”

There are no outsiders here, and Li Weimin introduced the plan one by one.

The risk is not one or two points, no wonder the old man of his family may not be able to agree, not only Ma Anyi and Wu Changming are not optimistic, but even Wu Jingchen retreated, secretly wanting to give him 20,000 or 30,000 US dollars.

Looking at the way everyone looked at each other, Li Weimin simply pulled the tiger skin as a banner, and said with a smile: "I can't hide it, I came back this time to explore the way, to help the US government explore the way." If nothing else, the next time I come back, I will be able to mix in the official body, and become an official of the US government, the opportunity is rare, and if you miss this village, there will be no such shop. ”

The old man was full of praise for him when he returned the day before yesterday, and insisted that he and his brother walk around with him more. Besides, it's all people with status, and he can't talk about this kind of thing.

Why can the overseas Chinese billionaires in the West Tip make a lot of money, isn't it because of their privileges and their relationship with the French?

Wu Changming's mind became active, and he asked eagerly: "For the people, you had the best grades when you were studying, and I knew that you would have great achievements in the future." To be specific, don't forget your brother if there are any opportunities to make a fortune. ”

"Well, the U.S. government is different from other governments, and a lot of important things are entrusted to third parties, such as universities. At the University of Michigan, we have a research project from the U.S. Department of State on how to help Vietnam. In a few months, our professor will lead a research team to Saigon as an official of the Agency for International Development (USAID) to identify the aid plan and supervise its implementation. ”

To stabilize the situation in Vietnam, we must first stabilize the financial sector, and with the backing of the United States, which has deep pockets, Piast will certainly not depreciate.

Wu Jingchen reacted like an empowerment, weighed it again, and said resolutely: "For the people, brother believes in you, give my brother three days, if there is more, you can still get 500,000 US dollars." ”

Half a million dollars is not a small number, according to the price of gold and purchasing power, it is equivalent to six or seven million dollars in later generations. He was the first to speak, and as soon as he opened his mouth, it was 500,000, obviously wanting to put out a sample and take the lead.

Li Weimin was grateful, and said with a serious face: "Big brother, I will share the money with you equally, if you lose it, it will be mine." ”

"Brothers settle accounts, of course they have to share them equally if they make money, and they have to share them equally if they lose money."

"Yes, yes, how can there be a reason to take advantage of and not suffer. For the people, I, like you, don't have as much money as my eldest brother. I can only think of a way to make up 50,000. ”

Ma Anyi followed, and the two of them took the lead, and they were out of control. As little as 50,000 or as many as hundreds of thousands, Liu Jiachang counted it and found that the eldest young master had raised $4.6 million in just a few words!

Pulling a bunch of "princes" onto the thief ship is the beginning, and mutual interests must be tied together by all means.

Li Weimin beckoned everyone to drink tea, and said with a smile: "Everyone, now all shareholders are shareholders, everyone thinks about the name of the company, and it is best to draft a company charter." For the sake of our common cause, I can't show my face, let's elect a person in charge. ”

Only by colluding with officials and businessmen can he make a lot of money, and he has to become an American official, otherwise how to collude.

The more Ma Anyi thought about it, the more excited he became, he glanced at Wu Changming, and smiled with a smile: "The charter will be drafted slowly, and the principal will not need to be elected, I think Jiachang is the most suitable." ”

"Yes, just Jiachang, if you can't be busy, you can ask for another deputy manager."
