Chapter 799: I Don
"Hello? Uncle Duo? I'm Li Ye, looking for a small favor."
"..."
"You... you... you must not call me Uncle Duo. How dare I call myself uncle in front of you! If you have something, just order me, order me!"
Duoxing was so excited when he heard it was Li Ye on the phone that he couldn't even describe it.
The boss's boss had something for him to help with; wasn't his luck about to turn?
However, Li Ye's next words made his heart skip a beat.
"Duoxing, I heard you're still manipulating the overseas exchange business?"
Back then, Li Ye knew Old Song had opened a business for overseas exchange and had talked to Old Song about the dangers. Old Song indicated he would gradually let go, but now it seemed he hadn't been willing to give up this profit stream.
Duoxing hurriedly replied: "It's like this. Song-ye told me about the risks of the exchange business, so I gradually withdrew. However, sometimes we also have funds that need to flow between domestic and overseas, so I let my wife leave a path, only for our own people to use."
"Oh, so your wife is managing it!"
Li Ye said faintly: "Then ask your wife, is there a deal from Dongshan recently, about forty thousand, ask clearly and tell me."
"Good, good, good, I'll go ask immediately. Give me five minutes."
"Good, I'll call again in five minutes."
After Li Ye hung up the phone, he immediately dialed Old Song's phone in Japan.
"Hello, Old Song, are you still doing that overseas exchange business? Is it getting bigger and bigger?"
"Ah?"
Old Song on the other side was stunned and then giggled: "I transferred that business to someone else! How could I not take the Zhuangyuanlang's reminder seriously?"
Li Ye also smiled and said: "Oh, then who did you transfer it to?"
Old Song answered in seconds: "I transferred it to Chu Yuling. That woman is a capable person; she does pinball machines, exchange, small taverns, everything, and she does everything well."
"Hmm, that woman is indeed a ruthless person. You should be careful, don't get bitten by her."
Chu Yuling escaped from the film festival delegation to stay in Japan back then and was almost sold by human traffickers, finally escaping by grabbing the steering wheel, so Li Ye had a deep memory of her.
That kind of woman, in order to get ahead, in order to succeed, would stop at nothing.
However, Old Song laughed freely: "Heh, Zhuangyuanlang, you don't know. I liked that kind of ruthless girl when I was young. The more ruthless she is, the more exciting it is to handle her..."
"You old thing, restrain yourself! Be careful your kidneys go weak~"
"Hahahaha~"
Li Ye chatted with Old Song for a while longer before hanging up the phone.
After hanging up, Li Ye's smile disappeared completely.
Old Song was still a bit greedy and unwilling to abandon the underground bank business that made money every day.
And now he had reached out to pinball machines, and with the underground bank, it was even more profitable and even more dangerous.
"Sigh, that old thing dared to sell fake goods to Nakamura-daisa back then; his guts are still so big now!"
Li Ye shook his head and dialed Duoxing again.
After getting through, Duoxing told Li Ye like pouring beans from a bamboo tube that there was indeed someone from Dongshan who came to remit money overseas, and it was indeed a woman introduced by Lu Jingyao, and He Xue had made an appointment with the other party to trade in these two days.
But the amount of money was not right; it wasn't forty thousand, it was twenty thousand.
Li Ye didn't care about this anymore and said straight to the point: "Duoxing, I don't care if it breaks your rules, but I want to take that money and those two people away. Can you control your wife?"
Underground banks pay attention to reputation. If someone comes to trade but is caught by the police, it definitely doesn't fit the rules, so that's why Li Ye said that.
But Duoxing's answer was almost exactly the same as Old Song's.
"Ye, our family's method of disciplining women is ancestral. Let alone my wife, even that..."
"Clap~" Li Ye hung up the phone.
A bunch of bad things, listening to you chatter is simply dirtying my ears.
August 1st, noon, Beijing, Embassy District.
Cui Aiguo wore a hat and a mask, staring at the intersection across the street, looking for an hour or two.
"Sister Xiao Yue, is that Xue-jie you mentioned reliable or not? Why hasn't she come yet?"
"Absolutely reliable, and she agreed on between 11:30 and 12:30. It's only 12:05 now, what are you anxious about?"
"Don't you know what I'm anxious about? We're on the flight tonight. If this money can't be remitted, we can only carry two thousand yuan to Britain..."
Cui Aiguo was retorted by Xia Yue, and his heart became even more anxious: "And the longer we wait in Beijing, the more dangerous it is."
"More dangerous?" Xia Yue sneered and said: "You're not the only one who took the money. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. What are you afraid of?"
"I..."
Cui Aiguo didn't make a sound. He was actually afraid that Xia Yue would sell him out.
Because Xia Yue had been contacting the other party these past few days, and the conversation was entirely in English.
Xia Yue studied English at the Normal College, and He Xue also studied English at the Beijing Foreign Studies University. The two of them chattered away, and Cui Aiguo couldn't understand a word even if he stood by.
However, just when Cui Aiguo was worried, Xia Yue suddenly said excitedly: "It's here, a black Volga, license plate ending in 1768, the driver is a woman, everything matches."
Cui Aiguo hurriedly looked up, and sure enough, he saw a black Volga parked at the agreed position. The driver was a long-haired woman, and large black sunglasses covered most of her face, looking very foreign.
"Go, let's observe carefully after we get close, don't get black-eaten-black."
The two walked quickly. When they got close, they found there was only one person in the car, and they were immediately relieved.
The two opened the car door and got in, and the female driver in front said coldly: "From Dongshan, right? Where's the money?"
Xia Yue heard that the driver's voice was a bit wrong, and immediately vigilantly asked in English: "May I ask who you are to Xue-jie?"
The female driver immediately smiled and asked back in English: "Do you know the rules? You give the money, we remit the money. If you don't believe it, get off."
He Xue was immediately relieved, because the female driver's English was very good, even better than that He Xue's, completely meeting the propaganda background of "having overseas connections."
Without overseas connections, how could you remit money overseas?
Cui Aiguo received Xia Yue's instruction, opened his bag, and revealed the layers of wrapped banknotes.
The female driver glanced at it, sneered coldly, and honked the horn.
"Beep, beep, beep~"
After the car horn sounded, two Santana cars immediately drove over from behind, blocking the Volga in the middle.
Xia Yue didn't know things had changed by now, and said in terror: "What are you doing? We agreed with Xue-jie, we are friends with Lu Jingyao..."
But as the people from the two Santana cars got off, Xia Yue and Cui Aiguo felt like they had fallen into an ice cellar.
Section Chief Cao, Li Zhongfa, Li Ye, public security personnel... they had opened a net waiting for them to drill into it!
"Why did Lu Jingyao lie to me? Why did Lu Jingyao lie to me?"
Xia Yue kept muttering, unable to believe that Lu Jingyao, who was as close to her as a sister, would lie to her.
However, she reacted afterward and said loudly to Cui Aiguo: "Aiguo, what is going on? Why are grandfather and the public security looking for us?"
Cui Aiguo said foolishly: "Don't you know why? Because..."
"No, no, no, no, I don't know anything, I don't know anything..."
