Chapter 174: A Hongmen Banquet

The location of the dinner was still arranged at the leisure farm where he and Liu Chenglin had been to before, but this time he went to the banquet, but Xu Haibao did not bring Liu Xiaohan with him. In addition to Tang Xingyou and You Guangwei, even Zhao Ji also arranged to protect his girlfriend's safety.

came to the provincial capital early, Xu Haibao originally agreed to invite his little sister to dinner with those roommates. But Tie Zhongyi suddenly called, knowing that in Liu Chenglin's work arrangement, Tie Zhongyi, who was playing antique trading, still helped, and Xu Haibao also thought of his affection.

knows that people like Tie Zhongyi should be extra cautious when interacting. Xu Haibao doesn't want a girlfriend either, and he knows too many people like this. And his acceptance of the invitation can be regarded as giving Tie Zhongyi a lot of face.

After receiving a call from Xu Haibao, Xu Qingya, who was also on vacation, said somewhat dissatisfied: "Brother, I said that I would invite my classmates to dinner tonight, why did you change your mind temporarily? What friend, so important?"

"I met in the provincial capital, a shopkeeper who did antique trading. It's just that he has a good relationship with the old company commander. Even the old company commander was assigned to the East China Sea Maritime Safety Bureau, and the other party also helped a lot. It's not good if people invite, it's not good not to go!"

To appease his little sister and invite guests to dinner, he will naturally hand it over to Liu Xiaohan to handle. In fact, after having Liu Xiaohan, Xu Haibao didn't want to socialize too much with his sister and other female classmates, for fear that his girlfriend would be jealous!

Xu Haibao, who had been in contact with Xu Qingya from time to time earlier, had heard his sister talk about Lin Mengchu. But in Xu Haibao's opinion, since he chose Liu Xiaohan, he didn't want to provoke Lin Mengchu too much. Even in terms of posture and color conditions, Lin Mengchu is not inferior to Liu Xiaohan at all.

But fate began, some things were missed, and they were missed after all. Now let Liu Xiaohan come forward to treat him on his behalf, Xu Haibao believes that this approach will also let those girls know that he still cares about Liu Xiaohan's feelings.

Arriving at the farm, looking at Tie Zhongyi who was standing at the door to greet him, Xu Haibao also quickened his pace and stepped forward and said: "Iron shopkeeper, I haven't seen you for a long time! Why don't you wait in the box, let you wait at the door with Brother Liu, I'm a little flattered!"

"It's okay! I should have bothered me to invite you. I heard Cheng Lin talk about you earlier, and I know that what you have done in the East China Sea is prosperous. I was worried that my brother had forgotten my friend?"

"That's okay! Today, my brother invited, and I can cancel the originally scheduled dinner!"

After a polite exchange, Xu Haibao also introduced the two comrades-in-arms to Tie Zhongyi. Of course, in front of Tie Zhongyi, Xu Haibao still introduced Tang Xingyou as the company's vice president, and You Guangwei was the department manager.

On the other hand, Tie Zhongyi, who was experienced, quickly said: "Mr. Tang and Manager You, I think he is also from a military background, right?"

"Iron Shopkeeper has a good eye! I served in the same army as Hypertherm earlier. Listening to Haibao, the iron shopkeeper is a man with an ancient heart. Our company commander Liu was transferred to another job, thanks to your help at the beginning!"

"In that case, Cheng Lin was a brother to me in my early years. He transferred back to the local area, and I, as an old brother, naturally have to help. Unfortunately, my network is also limited. Originally, I wanted to arrange for him to work in the province, but in the end he transferred to the East China Sea.

Fortunately, I heard Cheng Lin say that his current unit is also good, and he also mentioned Zhengke some time ago. Seeing his progress in the unit, I am also happy for him. What's more, with the help of your comrades-in-arms, he can't make progress if he doesn't want to!"

After smiling and talking to Tang Xingyou and the others, Tie Zhongyi invited Xu Haibao and the others to the reserved box. On the way to the box, Tie Zhongyi said with a little apology: "Brother, I'm afraid I have something to tell you in advance!"

"Brother has something to say!"

"This is the case! I took the liberty to disturb my brother today, but I am also a friend of mine, and I want to get acquainted with my brother. Although this matter is a bit unauthentic, my friend is too big, and it is rare to ask me once, and I can't refuse. ”

"Oh! The Iron Shopkeeper still has such a friend, it seems that I really want to get to know him!"

Even if Tie Zhongyi said sorry, but when Xu Haibao thought about it, he must have paid attention to him for a long time. As for the so-called friend, I think there should be some energy in Jiangnan. But this dinner is definitely not improvised.

Under the guidance of Tie Zhongyi, Xu Haibao and the three of them quickly walked into a more secret box. Looking at the two men sitting in the box, Xu Haibao was a little surprised, but he instantly understood that this meal was not delicious.

Maybe Tie Zhongyi didn't expect that these two people who should have met Xu Haibao for the first time in his opinion. One of them, Xu Haibao recognized who the other party was at a glance. As for the other person, Xu Haibao didn't know much about it.

But the person Xu Haibao knows is no more than two years older than Xu Haibao. It's just that the other party is in Jiangnan Province and even in China, and the energy is still not small. If there is no accident, the other party is also a person who is good at fishing for the wrong way.

To be exact, dealing with this person requires extra care. The reason is that Xu Haibao had contact with the other party in his previous life. It's just that he didn't have much communication with each other in his previous life. After all, in his previous life, he was just an ordinary diving salvageman.

After Tie Zhongyi's introduction, the older man smiled and said, "Mr. Xu, I take the liberty to invite, I hope you will forgive me." Originally, I had heard some things about Mr. Xu, and I always wanted to find a chance to meet, but I didn't take the liberty to visit.

Fortunately, I am also an old friend of the iron shopkeeper, and I heard him mention that he has some friendship with you. Therefore, this time I specially asked him to be the east, invite Mr. Xu to have a light meal, and talk about something by the way, I hope Mr. Xu doesn't mind!"

"Boss Lin is polite! Since he is a friend of the iron shopkeeper, he is naturally also my friend! I just don't know what Boss Lin wants to talk to me about? If I heard me correctly, Mr. Lin should be engaged in logistics, right?"

"The logistics company is a business under my name. It's just that I've always been more inclined to invest. Listening to the iron shopkeeper, Mr. Xu registered a salvage company in Xiangjiang and booked a salvage ship, and wanted to ask if there was an opportunity for cooperation. ”

Listening to what this Mr. Lin said, Tang Xingyou and You Guangwei, who accompanied him, no matter how stupid they were, could hear that there was a trace of unfriendliness or domineering in these words. But Xu Haibao didn't say anything, and they didn't take the initiative to interject.

I don't know what Mr. Lin is referring to when he talks about cooperation? Since they are friends, it doesn't hurt to say some things openly. I'm a soldier, and I don't like to beat around the bush when I talk and do things. Please forgive me for this!"

"Yo ho! I can't see that Mr. Xu has made some money, and the tone of his speech is getting louder! Lao Lin, since Mr. Xu doesn't want to listen to nonsense, then let's not go around the bush and say anything. If you can't talk about it, you can talk about it, and if you can't talk about it, you will break up!"

The man who interjected, his expression was somewhat gloomy. But Xu Haibao knows very well that this person acts somewhat similar to his appearance. According to the information he knew in his previous life, this person is still very vicious in his actions!

"Mr. Lin, Mr. Ding, Brother Xu, why don't we serve the food first and chat while eating?"

Facing Xu Haibao and the two of them for the first time, the words didn't seem to be very pleasant, and Tie Zhongyi, who acted as an intermediary, felt helpless, but took the initiative to ease the atmosphere. But in terms of words, it is more biased towards Lin and Ding!

After sitting down again, Mr. Lin, who seemed to be acting more steadily, accompanied Xu Haibao to drink two glasses before continuing: "Mr. Xu, I know that you are a refreshing person when I see you drinking, so I will have something to say."

To tell you the truth, Brother Ding and I also considered doing the business of salvaging sunken ships earlier. It's just that we don't have much experience in this area. Originally, I wanted to recruit a group of people and try to set up a company to test the waters, but the investment was still a bit big.

learned from the iron shopkeeper that the company set up by Mr. Xu in Xiangjiang seems to be specialized in this. This time I took the liberty of inviting you, I also want to ask, does your company accept investment? Let me join Brother Ding?

Of course, we can discuss the matter of shares. And I also heard that my brother had a transaction with Gade Auction House a while ago, and I think it should be a big gain. But I want to say that when you sell it to an auction house, you let others make most of it.

If the three of us cooperate, I believe that the money that my brother can make should be more profitable than selling it to the auction house. I don't dare to say anything else, in this one-acre and three-point land in the south of the Yangtze River, my face with Brother Ding is still useful. ”

As Xu Haibao guessed before, the strange Mr. Lin in front of him, although Xu Haibao had not been in contact with him in his previous life, he somewhat guessed that the other party's side business should be antique trading, and it may even involve smuggling.

As for this so-called Mr. Ding, like Tie Zhongyi's younger brother Liu Hongming, he is the boss of an entertainment company on the surface. In fact, the other party monopolized the dance hall and bar business in many cities in Jiangnan.

To put it simply, these two people are in black and white in Jiangnan, and they have a lot of connections. In the salvage company where Xu Haibao worked in his previous life, many high-priced antiques were secretly sold by the acquisition of this surnamed Ding.

I learned from some of the company's management in my previous life that this person surnamed Ding also did things for others. Now it seems that the person behind this should be Mr. Lin. And this Mr. Lin is also the CEO of a well-known logistics company in Jiangnan.

After sorting out these thoughts, Xu Haibao still smiled unhurriedly: "It seems that Mr. Lin still took some trouble to inquire about my little business. But I want to know, how much money does Mr. Lin plan to pay, and how many shares will he take?"

"50 million, 49 percent of the shares! It's just that in the future, everything that the company salvages must be picked first. Of course, the price is definitely higher than that of the auction house, how?"

Listening to what this Mr. Lin said, You Guangwei, who was staying aside, couldn't help but sneer: "Fifty million, I want half of the shares." It seems that the information you inquired about is not accurate enough! We spent more than 100 million on a salvage ship alone!"

"Let's talk, you broken manager, what are you talking about?"

Just when You Guangwei, who had a straightforward personality, said this, Mr. Ding, who always had a gloomy expression, suddenly questioned You Guangwei very angrily. But Mr. Ding couldn't have imagined that Xu Haibao's next words made the atmosphere in the box tense instantly!
