Chapter 374 Airport Conversation
Shui always knows that we separated from Third Master.
During the Chinese New Year, we went together to pay our respects to Third Master. Shui Zong knew exactly what happened during that time.
After that, Mr. Shui didn't make a single phone call. This time when he called, it was probably for something.
"Brother Hao, you wouldn't come here unless you had something important to say, there must be something!" Fatty Lin chimed in.
"Kobayashi, you can see through anything!"
Mr. Shui chuckled and said, "My headquarters building is finished with renovations, and I'm moving in. You two brothers, come and support your old man!"
"That's great news, Brother Hao! Don't worry, we'll definitely be there on time, and we'll also prepare a generous gift for you!" Fatty Lin agreed without even thinking.
It's really hard to refuse this.
"Forget about the gifts, your presence alone is the greatest support you can give me!"
Mr. Shui was very satisfied with Fatty Lin's attitude and said, "Mr. Jin and the others will also be coming. I've already spoken to them, and you'll all be coming together!"
"good!"
Fatty Lin nodded, agreed, and hung up the phone.
"Relocating the headquarters building and inviting Jin Gu and his team—I think Boss Shui's real intention this time isn't the headquarters itself, but rather the real estate in Shenzhen!" I said.
Mr. Shui specifically pointed out that the two of us were the official feng shui masters of the Big D Society, which was actually a reminder to us not to forget our identities.
"I think so too!"
Fatty Lin nodded and said, "Last time, Deng Wenwen reminded us that Boss Yu of Huanian Real Estate is not someone to be trifled with, and warned us not to be used as pawns. Let's go over there and see what Boss Shui and the others have to say!"
"Um!"
I nodded.
Two days later, on a weekend afternoon at four o'clock, Mr. Jin's car arrived at the store.
After we got in the car, we headed straight to the airport.
Upon arriving at the airport and entering the VIP lounge, I found myself surrounded by acquaintances.
Jin Gu, Da Li, and Zhang Qiaosheng are all members of the Big D Association.
There was one lady we didn't recognize.
The woman was wearing a light pink suit jacket and black trousers. Her long legs were together, and she leaned slightly against Jin Gu.
When we came in, she was whispering something to Jin Gu, which made Jin Gu laugh out loud.
"Mr. Jin, what's the good news? Why are you smiling like that?"
Fatty Lin, true to his usual style, asked in a nonchalant manner.
"You little rascal, you really don't act like you're part of the family!"
Jin Gu smiled, nodded at Fatty Lin, and stood up, saying, "Come, let me introduce you. This is Zhao Xiangxiang, our Chief Steward and Special Assistant!"
As Jin Gu introduced them, the woman stood up and shook hands with each of us in turn, saying, "Master Lin, Master Feng, Ms. Long, I have long admired the three of you!"
When she shook hands with me, her touch was brief and fleeting, but I noticed that when she shook hands with Fatty Lin, her little finger hooked around Fatty Lin's.
This is discrimination!
It seems she really knows the three of us, and also knows Long Nier's temperament.
"I've heard so much about you? Assistant Zhao, how so?"
"I asked in a cheeky way," Fatty Lin said.
"Whatever kind of fame Master Lin desires, that's the kind of fame he'll have!" Zhao Xiangxiang said with a smile, her eyes sparkling.
I'm a little exasperated. This fatso, that's all he's good for.
I ignored him and sat down with Long Nier.
"Thirteen, what have you been busy with lately?"
The moment his bottom landed on the sofa, Da Li came over.
"We recently developed a new medicated oil for health purposes. It's suitable for both men and women and works very well. Brother Li, would you like to try it?" I said with a smile.
"Send me a bottle later, I want to try it out!" Da Li said.
"Brother Li, what's the background of this Assistant Zhao?"
I glanced at Zhao Xiangxiang, who had already sat down next to Jin Gu again, and asked.
"You know Shui Zong's song and dance troupe, right?" Da Li said.
"I know!" I nodded.
"Our Assistant Zhao is the deputy head of the troupe, hired by Boss Shui at a high salary. His dancing skills and dexterity are both exceptional. It was at Assistant Zhao's request that Boss Jin invest in Boss Shui!"
Da Li said meaningfully, emphasizing the word "request".
"That Assistant Zhao is indeed very capable!" I understood immediately and nodded in agreement with Da Li's words.
Jingu's investment in water supply and its assistance in listing the company must have been based on multiple considerations, but the final push was most likely made by Assistant Zhao.
Shui Zong's song and dance troupe has been established for ten years.
Mr. Shui's first loan was secured through a woman.
From that point on, Shui Zong began to establish a song and dance troupe.
Zhao Xiangxiang's ability to become the deputy head of the troupe, and also hold the title of special assistant, must be different from that of ordinary song and dance troupe performers.
To be a special assistant, it's not enough to just have a pretty face and good dancing skills; you also need to have some achievements in business.
Regardless, the person who can handle Jin Gu must be extraordinary.
Years later, when Shui Zong fell from power, the group leader who had been out in the public eye and acted in a high-profile manner was exposed and ridiculed by the entire internet, while Zhao, the assistant group leader, was never mentioned.
This alone is enough to demonstrate how skillful she is.
Back to the present, Fatty Lin, after a brief conversation with Assistant Zhao, walked over, plopped down next to me, and said, "Brother Li, what were you talking about?"
"It's about the new medicinal oil that Thirteen has developed!" Da Li said with a smile.
"Brother Li, I've tried the medicated oil, and it works really well!" Fatty Lin said, winking.
"Thirteen said to bring me two bottles when he gets back!" Da Li said.
After saying that, he glanced at Assistant Zhao, who was practically collapsing into Jin Gu's arms, and asked, "Xiao Lin, how's that friend you found to investigate the Junyi Hotel?"
"It's pleasing to the eye!"
Mentioning this, Fatty Lin deliberately sighed and said, "Due to the backlash of the evil energy, my friend almost went blind and has been recovering ever since!"
"Brother Li, why did you suddenly ask about this?"
"I asked curiously."
"It's nothing, I was just asking!" Da Li said with a smile.
After saying that, he added, "Xiao Lin, aren't many of you in the Xuanmen sect harboring a chivalrous spirit? What did your friend think about the Li family's actions?"
"Brother Li, what era are we living in? Still talking about chivalry?"
Fatty Lin scoffed, rubbed his fingers together, and said, "These days, money is everything. Without money, nothing works!"
After rubbing his fingers together, Fatty Lin said with a smile, "Brother Li, don't you think so?"
"Yes!" Da Li nodded.
"Furthermore, the Li family's feng shui arrangement is right there; anyone with eyes can see it's not easy to mess with. Whoever breaks the arrangement dies. There's a line in a comedy sketch that goes something like that: 'The most painful thing in life is dying before you've spent all your money!'"
"Brother Li, don't you agree?"
Fatty Lin said meaningfully.
That makes sense!
Da Li continued nodding, saying, "With such immense wealth right there, who would risk their life?"
