Chapter 370

Big Brother, everything here in Gangdao is settled, do you have any other orders?

Just like that.

Li Xin hung up Huashe's call, then called Cao Yilang again.

"Langzi, help me set up a meeting with Zhongben Xiong, I have a business to discuss with him."

This matter, Shanxia Zhongxiu showing up isn't enough weight; only Cao Yilang, the future head of the Yamaguchi-gumi, can get Zhongben Xiong to come out.

Zhongben Xiong received Cao Yilang's call; he also knows the situation of the Yamaguchi-gumi, and asked: "Cao Yilang advisor, aren't you still in the hospital? Why are you looking for me now, is there something urgent?"

Cao Yilang said: "Mr. Zhongben, Li Xin from Gangdao wants to discuss a business with you; I don't know when you're free."

Hearing this, Zhongben Xiong was surprised, curiously asking: "Cao Yilang advisor, when did you get to know Mr. Heung Wong Li? Your network is wide!"

Cao Yilang!

Cao Yilang explained: "It's Mr. Li Xin of the Hongxin Group in Gangdao."

Zhongben Xiong doubted and asked: "Cao Yilang advisor, although the Hongxin Group has some fame, it seems to have no business dealings with our Zhongben Group."

"Our main business is heavy industry; Mr. Heung Wong Li has a dock, so we still have business to talk about. What does the Hongxin Group want to discuss?"

"Zhongben Building."

……

Shinjuku District Hongxin Hotel.

Li Xin and Zhongben Xiong sat opposite each other; after Jiangguo made tea for the two and left, Li Xin then said: "Mr. Zhongben, regarding your father and son, I only represent myself in expressing my condolences."

"Thank you for your greeting, Mr. Li?"

Li Xin tried not to laugh inside, look, I killed his father and son, yet he still wants to thank us!

Zhongben Xiong showed sorrow on his face, but what he's thinking inside is unknown!

Li Xin lifted his tea cup, took a sip, and asked: "Mr. Zhongben, something happened to Elder Zhongben in Gangdao; do you have any intention to sell the Zhongben Building in Gangdao?"

Zhongben Xiong nodded, responding: "My father passed away, the blow to the Zhongben Group is huge; we indeed have the idea to sell the Zhongben Building, Mr. Li, are you interested?"

"That's right!"

Li Xin picked up a document and handed it to Zhongben Xiong, saying: "Take a look first; we'll discuss after you've read it."

Zhongben Xiong picked up the document and looked at it; the more he looked, the more shocked he became. Besides a Swiss bank promissory note for one hundred million dollars, there is also much evidence of him embezzling funds from the Zhongben Group.

If these pieces of evidence were released now, his hope to smoothly take over the Zhongben Group would be nothing but a pipe dream!

In the future, whether the Zhongben Group will still bear the Zhongben name is uncertain; you should know the Zhongben Group is not the private property of the Zhongben family.

Zhongben Xiong's eyes flashed with anger, and he asked in a low voice: "Mr. Li, are you threatening me?"

Li Xin shook his head, pointing at the document and said: "If I were threatening you, I wouldn't have brought that check; the choice is in your hands, how to act is up to you."

Zhongben Xiong felt utterly frustrated; this bastard, holding a knife to someone's throat and letting them choose?

He has no choice!

Zhongben Xiong set down the document, his eyes flickering as he said: "Mr. Li, the Zhongben Building can be sold to you, but you need to do me a favor; after that, we'll each go our own way."

Li Xin made a gesture of invitation, signaling him to continue.

Zhongben Xiong said: "The Zhongben Building belongs to the Zhongben Group, but this money should go into my personal pocket; I think Mr. Li should know how to handle it."

"It's a small matter; Mr. Zhongben should have Elder Zhongben's seal; as long as Elder Zhongben, while alive, sells the Zhongben Building to the Hongxin Group, that's fine."

"Now the real estate market in Gangdao is sluggish; Elder Zhongben doing this is also to avoid losses to the Zhongben Group; as for where the proceeds go,"

"Whoever asks, just let them go find Elder Zhongben!"

Zhongben Xiong asked: "What about the transfer record? Without it, this matter will keep dragging on."

Li Xin replied with a smile: "Mr. Zhongben, rest assured; I also have another identity, that of a shareholder of Far East Bank, so obtaining a transfer record is simple; do you have any other questions?"

Zhongben Xiong showed a smile, responding with a laugh: "Happy cooperation, Mr. Li!"

Li Xin nodded: "Mr. Zhongben, I've done you such a big favor; shouldn't you also help me with a small favor?"

"Please speak."

"Dao Chuan Hui, I want the territory of the Dao Chuan Hui; you take care of the forces behind the Dao Chuan Hui, no problem, right?"

As soon as Li Xin's words left his mouth, Zhongben Xiong furrowed his brow and asked: "Mr. Li, if the Dao Chuan Hui withdraws from Kyoto, who will handle our troubles?"

Li Xin picked up the phone and said: "Let Shanxia Zhongxiu come in."

After Shanxia Zhongxiu entered, Li Xin introduced him to Zhongben Xiong: "Mr. Zhongben, this is Shanxia Zhongxiu, head of the Xinyi Zu; although he's useless, he can also settle some minor troubles; you can look for him in the future if anything comes up."

Zhongben Xiong looked at Li Xin and said: "Mr. Li, you may not have understood my meaning; I'm talking about the forces belonging to the Zhongben family, not relying on outsiders."

Li Xin pointed at the document, smiling and asked: "Is it that I didn't understand, or that you yourself haven't figured it out?"

"Talking with you is giving you face; not talking with you would leave you with nothing; please get the order straight."

After Li Xin finished speaking, he thought a bit and added: "At your age, from now on think before you speak!"

Zhongben Xiong's expression was gloomy and uncertain; this bastard is too arrogant!

Nevertheless, form overpowered person; he signed a document, picked up the folder Li Xin gave him, stood up and left; when his father was alive, he said he lacked brains.

Now his father has passed away, and then along comes Li Xin saying he lacks brains; living like this is really stifling!

After Zhongben Xiong left, Li Xin instructed Shanxia Zhongxiu: "Ah Xiu, I've settled the behind-the-scenes matters; hand over the front-end cleanup to you; any problems?"

Shanxia Zhongxiu bowed and saluted, solemnly replying: "Big Brother, I can't handle this small matter; I'll just commit seppuku."

Li Xin laughed and scolded: "What's the point of seppuku? I want to eat nine-turn intestines; I'd go to the market to sell pig intestines; yours is useless."

Shanxia Zhongxiu scratched his head, embarrassed and asked: "Big Brother! Do you mean I'm not even as good as a pig?"

"That's right!"

Li Xin nodded and said: "Ah Xiu, if a pig had a choice, it wouldn't think of suicide."

"If something isn't done well, just think of another way to do it; constantly threatening seppuku, what's that? Does it make you look brave?"

Pointing outside the window, Li Xin continued: "Ah Xiu, a wonderful world awaits you to play; even if the Xinyi Zu is gone, as long as you're alive, that's fine."

Because you're alive, our Trust and Righteousness Group can start over. Do you understand what I mean?

Shanxia Zhongxiu gave a heartfelt, sincere ninety-degree bow; at this moment, Big Brother's status in his heart surged straight up.

He can be compared to Brother Tachibana; he can risk his life for Brother Tachibana, and thereafter he can also entrust his life to Big Brother.
