Chapter 928: Doing whatever one wants

How ruthless can a woman be when she is ruthless?

Ruthless enough that both men and women say it's ruthless!

Sister Lou had only been in Hong Kong for a little over a month; how could these messages be sent back.

A child without a mother, it's a long story; the matter has to start from Lou Yu's arrangements in Hong Kong.

He thought about transferring the mainland property to Hong Kong, afraid that this part of the gold would fall into Li Xuewu's hands and change its name.

So, he did his son a favor, walked through a back door, and left some arrangements at the bank.

Even if it meant chilling his daughter's heart, offending Li Xuewu, or even taking risks, he was determined to deeply carve a "Lou" character on his gold.

The Lou of the Lou family, not the Lou of Lou Xiaoe!

A daughter, sooner or later, belongs to someone else.

A son, sooner or later, belongs to himself.

Even if the third wife Tan Yali took care of him wholeheartedly before she died, even if Lou Xiaoe was truly filial in front of him, what complaints could he have when the children still called him father, and even the eldest grandson was born.

Going to Hong Kong this time, he wasn't without considerations for his sons, but seeing the two wives still there, and the children still calling him father, what complaints could he have.

The first wife gave birth to two sons and one daughter for him.

The eldest son Lou Xiaobin was married and had an eldest son Lou Ting, operating a firm and doing investment and trade business.

The eldest daughter Lou Xiaonan married into a wealthy family and became a wife; her life was very carefree.

The second son Lou Xiaocheng studied medicine, opened his own clinic, had a successful career, and was young and promising.

The second wife gave birth to one son and one daughter for him.

According to the ranking before the family separation, the second daughter Lou Xiaohan was older and was now a lawyer in a law firm.

The third son Lou Xiaojing used the property from the separation to buy several apartment buildings to be a landlord; although he was a bit idle and didn't do his proper job, he was also carefree and relaxed.

Actually, the third wife raised in the capital also had two children, both daughters; Lou Xiaoe was the youngest, and there was an elder sister Lou Xiaoying, who had married early.

The eldest son Lou Xiaobin had his father's style, understood economics a bit, and his business was neither big nor small, but it was smooth sailing.

However, with his father's sudden appearance, especially the news of the twenty tons of gold, he couldn't eat or sleep.

Although only one and a half tons of this twenty tons of gold belonged to the Lou family, the news had reached him; where would he care about his father's instructions? Wouldn't it be better if all of it belonged to the Lou family!

He wasn't a simple person who was blinded by greed and lost his mind; from his father's mouth, he learned that this bank had quite a background and couldn't be easily provoked.

His father spoke vaguely, but he really listened; he knew that doing this alone wasn't safe, so he had to pull people together to do it.

Everyone who knows about readers with banks knows that money in banks can't be easily cheated out; they are more shrewd than anyone!

To do this thing with a beginning and an end, there must be start-up capital, and there must be people to help endorse and smooth out the joints behind.

He had quite a family fortune, but doing business didn't have that much cash to do things.

Even if he mortgaged his firm to the bank, it still wasn't enough to leverage these twenty tons of gold.

So the two old ones in the family, counting Lou Xiaobin, five young ones, were all instigated by him to invest and get rich together.

With his father's endorsement and participation, what was there to be unsure of? Wouldn't this be equal to pulling the gold home from the Oriental Era Bank!

Two old ones in the family, counting Lou Xiaobin, five young ones, only the second son Lou Xiaocheng didn't want to participate.

He said that calculating his own family members was not promising, and he despised this kind of ill-gotten wealth even more.

These words made Lou Xiaobin want to fight with his younger brother, but the eldest sister Lou Xiaohan stopped him.

She said that this was father's arrangement; if you want it, take it; if you don't want it, don't, but don't mess around.

Lou Xiaocheng knew that the eldest sister was saying this to him; he got up and left the house; he had already bought a house and lived separately.

After that, Lou Xiaocheng didn't know how much each person in the family took out; anyway, looking at their red-eyed appearance, they wanted to move the bank home.

The eldest brother was in business and was blinded by greed, which was understandable, but Lou Xiaocheng didn't understand why the second sister, who studied law, was also like this.

However, he could talk about the first wife's side, but the second wife's side had another layer of relationship with the family.

After that period, it was heard that the eldest brother had climbed up to a powerful relationship, a Chinese detective sergeant.

This detective sergeant's identity was amazing; he became a policeman as early as 1940, later followed Fu Ye all the way up, and now he was even more amazing.

Lou Xiaobin was really willing; in order to get to know this person, he specially made a small gold Buddha to send over.

And after getting to talk, he told the background relationship of the newly established Oriental Era Bank.

His sister from the mainland had no knowledge and was easy to bully.

That Chinese detective sergeant nicknamed Fatty B was surprised by his internal news, and even more surprised by his lack of recognition of his own kin.

Lou Xiaobin calculated well, smiled and told Fatty B that he was doing this game without anyone losing out, and that money wasn't his sister's anyway.

Twenty tons of gold, he only wanted fifteen tons, and the remaining five tons were considered a dowry for Fatty B.

Fatty B didn't believe it at first, but after hearing that he didn't have to spend a cent, and there was a five-ton gold dowry, plus a concubine, where could he find this good thing.

Pie wouldn't fall from the sky; Fatty B wasn't a fool, directly asking the most critical question: what did he need him to do.

Lou Xiaobin said directly that this bank must have some relationships behind it; when the time came, he needed the detective sergeant to protect his safety.

Fatty B was stunned for a moment, then remembered the famous case he had handled, and finally knew why the other party found him.

This Hong Kong, he wouldn't dare to say too big, but as for cases that could be handled, he could take them all.

As long as Lou Xiaobin could take out the gold, he would recognize this brother-in-law.

The two could be considered birds of a feather, cooperating happily.

Lou Xiaobin followed his father to set up the game.

In mid-October, Lou Yu urged Lou Xiaobin repeatedly to act cautiously and not be greedy, and to stop as soon as possible.

Lou Xiaobin perfunctorily agreed with his father that he definitely would, but after his father left, he continued to set up the game crazily.

He just felt his father was too stingy; where was one and a half tons of gold enough? Was there any reason to return empty-handed after entering the treasure mountain?

Time passed for less than a week, and news came that his long-awaited good sister Lou Xiaoe had arrived in Hong Kong.

For this sister, he had no impression; when she was young, he often bullied her, and she was afraid of him and hid.

The first meeting place was the general manager's office of the Oriental Era Bank.

Lou Xiaoe was familiarizing herself with work when eldest brother Lou Xiaobin, carrying eldest sister-in-law Zhang Yushu and second sister Lou Xiaohan, suddenly visited.

When she was in the mainland, she had thought about how to face these so-called relatives here after arriving in Hong Kong.

Her mother's admonition and her father's instructions made her heart have scruples and hesitation.

Until the nightmare of her childhood appeared in front of her, she determined the attitude and feeling she wanted to face them with.

The eldest brother and sister-in-law were very polite and courteous, and the second sister was particularly close, asking about her well-being.

Lou Xiaoe looked at their performance and greeted them very politely, but this politeness didn't have the eldest brother's flattery, only alienation.

The three came just to say hello and meet, saying that the two mothers missed her very much and wanted her to go home for a meal.

Lou Xiaoe couldn't stand their hypocrisy and said she had just taken over the work and was really busy, and would visit when she was free later.

It seemed like they were really just coming to say hello; none of the three forced or demanded, and when she said she wouldn't go, the three made an appointment for later and left.

Lou Xiaoe naturally didn't think this matter was over; if you are polite to others, you must have a request.

Just with the eldest brother's character, he was the most not-a-thing since he was young; how could he be willing to show his face to see her.

She didn't think she had anything worth the other party's concern.

Sure enough, after she refused the other party's invitation, the next day, the entire Lou family in Hong Kong came to the company to see her.

Including the eldest aunt and second aunt who didn't like her since she was young and didn't even bother to look at her more than once.

The whole family was mobilized, and they brought her stewed bird's nest and snow clam, saying that since she didn't have time to go home, the family could only come to see her.

Good, now she really became the one who didn't recognize her kin.

The first child of the eldest brother's family was a boy, the eldest son and eldest grandson, named Lou Ting, ten years old, very naughty.

The eldest aunt affectionately taught Lou Ting to call her aunt, but was refused.

Lou Ting didn't know where he learned it, pointed his little finger at Lou Xiaoe, and said seriously: "This is not little aunt, this is born by a maid..."

Good, the harmony that the whole family had worked so hard to create was instantly punctured like a balloon by this bear child.

How could Lou Xiaobin allow his son to ruin his big plan? He went up and kicked him, kicking Lou Ting so that he slid forward three steps.

Alright, now it was completely lively; the eldest aunt complained that her son was ruthless, the second son Lou Xiaocheng nervously squatted down to help up his nephew to check if he was injured, and the eldest sister-in-law Zhang Yushu cried when she saw him nervous.

She was the mother and she was crying; could Lou Ting not cry?

Even if the father's kick wasn't painful, he was still howling with all his might.

The three people of the second wife's side looked at each other, hiding the corners of their mouths and waiting to watch the fun.

Lou Xiaoe looked at the messy scene in the office, the blood vessels on her forehead jumping, and could only smile and say that children don't know what they are saying, eldest brother don't be angry.

Things reached this step, and the whole family knew they should say goodbye and leave.

After Lou Xiaoe sent them downstairs, that eldest sister Lou Xiaohan, who had always held her neck high, took the initiative to speak.

This eldest sister was the eldest daughter of the family, born first, most loved by her father, and her character since childhood was arrogant and domineering.

Her mother had strength, and the husband's family she married into also had some assets; her life was smooth, and her character was naturally arrogant as always.

At the door, when everyone was getting in the car, she took the initiative to say to Lou Xiaoe that her father mentioned the situation of little sister's divorce and being single before leaving, and instructed them as sisters and brothers to take care of and care for her more.

It seemed like she really cared about family affection, and she even smiled at her rarely and generously, saying she could go home if there was anything later.

Lou Xiaoe looked at her smile and only felt annoyed, but she really wasn't in the mood to deal with the other party.

Especially since this family only expressed concern today and didn't provide an excuse or reason for her to turn her face.

Child?

Which child's words can be taken seriously? They must be taken as needles...

Things were beyond Lou Xiaoe's expectations; this family didn't plan to let her go.

Since that meeting, every day an eldest aunt would come to see her with nutritional supplements.

Really afraid of disturbing her work, these two eldest aunts would come to ask about her well-being, and wouldn't force her to drink on the spot, sitting for a while and then leaving.

If it weren't for this, she would really think the other party had poisoned her supplements.

Facts proved that there was no poison in supplements like shark fin, bird's nest, and snow clam; there was poison in hypocritical family affection.

Such days passed for seven or eight days, during which the second sister accompanied the second aunt to come, and the eldest brother also came to sit for a while.

They were always talking about family affection, asking about well-being, and the words were also sincere, warming the heart and stomach.

If it weren't for her learning a heart of stone from that bastard who talked nonsense seriously, Lou Xiaoe would really have fainted in this gentle village.

In early November, one day the eldest aunt, together with eldest sister-in-law Zhang Yushu and second sister Lou Xiaohan, came to her place.

After chatting for a while, the three didn't sit for a while and leave like usual, but instead talked about her personal situation.

The eldest aunt said a woman cannot be without a man; life is too bitter.

The eldest sister-in-law said a woman is ultimately not as good as a man; find someone who knows how to take care of people and is considerate, and life will be better.

The second sister said no matter how big a woman's career is, she ultimately has to return to the family, have children, and teach her husband and children.

Lou Xiaoe knew they had set up so many days of ambush and finally wanted to say the right thing, so she listened carefully.

Finally, the second sister took the initiative to talk about introducing a boyfriend to her, a big shot she knew from work.

Lou Xiaoe smiled and said she didn't have the virtue or ability to climb high branches and know big shots.

Lou Xiaohan introduced the other party's identity in an endless stream: what kind of Chinese detective sergeant, what kind of majestic, what kind of prestige in the police world.

The point was, the other party was only thirty-something, exactly the best age for a man.

Lou Xiaoe smiled slightly, seemingly caring and asked: "Thirty-something, not old, but exactly how many?"

Lou Xiaohan saw her take the bait; although she hesitated when introducing the age, she still said: "Only thirty-nine, in the prime of life."

"Thirty-nine?"

Lou Xiaoe pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "Forget it, I won't be a stepmother to others in the past."

"Where are those words~"

Lou Xiaohan persuaded her: "The family is wealthy, there are countless servants in the family; if you go over, you will be a wife."

But seeing Lou Xiaoe take the bait, and afraid she really wouldn't agree, she scared her again: "You see this Hong Kong is a society ruled by law, but actually it's not like that!"

"I'll tell you, you just came and don't know; doing business, how can you not know Chinese police."

Lou Xiaohan even used her profession to guarantee her, saying that to do business in Hong Kong, there must be someone above.

This seemed to have been heard by Lou Xiaoe; every time it was that bastard changing methods to shame her.

Speaking to this point, the eldest aunt also took the initiative to speak, persuading her to get married early as an elder.

And Zhang Yushu also brought her husband's words, persuading her to listen to the family more; the family wouldn't harm her.

Lou Xiaoe saw the three of them talking one after another, thought about it, and reluctantly agreed, as if she had really made a serious consideration to get married.

After watching them perform so hard for so long, she just wanted to see what they were going to play in the end.

Sunday, seafood restaurant, Lou Xiaobin specially booked a private room, just to lay a good foundation for today's "blind date."

The only people accompanying that police expert were the eldest brother and second sister—the people from the first and second wife's side who could make decisions and speak.

Lou Xiaoe only brought Erhai to the banquet, and as soon as they met, everyone introduced and greeted each other, and the atmosphere was really lively.

Erhai was small, carrying Lou Xiaoe's bag and coat, really like a little follower.

That Fatty B only glanced at him and didn't pay attention anymore; he was too small.

However, bringing a little follower like this wasn't very fresh in Hong Kong; wealthy wives and young ladies naturally couldn't work hard themselves when going out.

If they found a young and strong one, they were afraid of gossip; this half-grown child was the best to order around.

The reason Fatty B didn't pay attention to Erhai was mainly because he saw Lou Xiaoe was quite stunning.

Unlike the softness and timidity of Hong Kong women, the Lou sister who just came from the mainland had a kind of atmosphere and domineering air.

A woman's beauty has inner beauty and outer beauty; outer beauty can be cultivated through makeup and exercise, and inner beauty needs the cultivation of learning and environment.

This woman gave him a feeling of being capable yet gentle as soon as they met; if married home, she would definitely be a virtuous helper.

So the cheap brother-in-law took the initiative to order dishes to treat him to seafood, and he also nodded and agreed with a smile.

Lou Xiaobin could also see that Fatty B had taken a fancy to Lou Xiaoe, so he gave Lou Xiaohan a look, asking her to knock on the side drum more.

Seafood feast, plus Fatty B's deliberate flattery, and Lou Xiaobin and Lou Xiaohan helping out, how could Lou Xiaoe resist the other party's offensive.

Just when Fatty B generously expressed his admiration, Lou Xiaoe also took the initiative to nod and say good.

This made the three people at the table happy, each with their own thoughts; anyway, they were all happy.

Especially Lou Xiaohan; when persuading Lou Xiaoe in the office, she thought the other party was cold and didn't want to talk, really reluctant.

Didn't expect that she was the kind of goods who could go with people after just meeting and eating a meal; no wonder Lou Ting said she was born by a maid, too ignorant.

She despised in her heart, but her face was full of smiles, and she was even saying congratulations in her mouth.

Fatty B was also happy, drank a glass with Lou Xiaobin, and said they would be relatives from now on.

Lou Xiaoe waited for them to be happy for a while, then said slowly: "Parents' orders, matchmaker's words; getting married is fine, but the family must agree."

Fatty B was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two people at the table, and finally nodded: "Should be, should be, no problem, no problem!"

He pointed to Lou Xiaobin and Lou Xiaohan who were also stunned by Lou Xiaoe's words, saying: "Aren't these your family members!"

After saying this, he laughed and patted Lou Xiaobin's shoulder, saying: "Big brother-in-law, you must agree, right?!"

"Hahaha~"

Lou Xiaobin laughed, just about to speak, but only heard Lou Xiaoe say lightly: "He doesn't count."

"Xiaoe!"

Lou Xiaohan called her softly, then said as if unintentionally: "Even if we are not from the same room, aren't we brothers and sisters?"

After saying this, she complained: "Third mother is still in the mainland, so far away, how to contact~"

Fatty B saw that Lou Xiaoe's expression wasn't right, and from the conversation of the three brothers and sisters, he understood that this was the three brothers and sisters of the third wife.

It looked like the first wife and second wife were ganging up to trick the third wife!

"No problem!"

He waved his hand and said heroically: "Even if it's in the mainland, you can ask for instructions."

Saying this, he signaled Lou Xiaoe sitting opposite and said: "Miss Lou, you say, who counts for this matter?"

"I am the eldest brother, I have the final say."

Lou Xiaobin widened his eyes, deliberately using his status as the eldest brother to suppress Lou Xiaoe, wanting to force her to submit.

Lou Xiaoe didn't pay attention to this, but said slowly: "No need to go to the mainland; it's on Yongle Street~ my family also has property in Yau Ma Tei."

This sentence was said, and Lou Xiaobin was shocked for a moment; was it Lou Xiaoe's mother who came, or did her father not leave and leave her property.

Lou Xiaohan saw Lou Xiaoe's tone and attitude were wrong, and very smartly chose to shut up and watch.

The table was quiet for a while, and it was about to be cold.

Fatty B narrowed his eyes, and then in the surprise of Lou Xiaobin and Lou Xiaohan, widened his eyes, asking hesitantly: "You mean...!"

"That's my younger brother from my mother's side."

Lou Xiaoe smiled and said: "It's really a coincidence; he told me that there are some things that are not very legal that need to be done."

Speaking to this point, she paused, put down the spoon in her hand, took a napkin to wipe her mouth, and smiled slightly: "You represent the law, and you are so capable, so naturally I am willing to marry you."

After saying this, she withdrew her hand, stared at Fatty B, and said: "My family is on Yongle Street; do you want me to write it for you now, so it's convenient for you to propose?"

Prince Port Services!

Yongle Street!

Damn it!

Ng Fung Hong!

Hearing Lou Xiaoe ask him to propose, Fatty B was so nervous that the chopsticks in his hand fell.

He didn't have time to pick them up, waved his hands repeatedly and smiled: "No need, no need, hahaha, it's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding, really made a big joke!"

He stood up and glared at Lou Xiaobin; that look clearly meant: We'll settle the account later!

After standing up, he changed his smiling face, politely said to Lou Xiaoe: "Just now I was joking with you; Hong Kong is a society ruled by law!"

After saying this, he waved his hand and said a welcome to Miss Lou to come to Hong Kong to make a fortune, then left in a hurry.

Family?

Bullshit! In the mainland, it's called an organization!

No wonder he investigated the bank's takeover procedure and capital source as weird; in just a few months, it completed capital restructuring. It turned out to have such a strong background.

Damn, what kind of goods is this Lou Xiaobin? Is he intentional, or just a fool!

People from Ng Fung Hong, he dared to rob; tomorrow he could be a corpse on the street.

This fool introduced him to a woman from the mainland... was he tired of living!

"Hey! Detective Sergeant Han!"

Lou Xiaobin hadn't reacted to what happened; what Yongle Street, what Prince Port Services, what was all this!

What happened, Fatty B heard something and ran away!

He glared at Lou Xiaoe and went out to chase Fatty B; his plan couldn't be messed up!

In the private room, Lou Xiaohan saw the eldest brother go out to chase, and she also felt that the end of this meal was too weird.

"What's going on~"

Lou Xiaohan looked at Lou Xiaoe and said: "If you don't like it, you can tell me; there's no need to make it so stiff. Eldest brother is also kind; if you offend the other party, I'm afraid you'll have to eat a scrape."

Although she was anxious, her tone was still caring: "If you have anything to say, tell me; why do you want to do this?"

"He is Han Sen, right?"

Lou Xiaoe put down the chopsticks in her hand, looked at the mess on the table, raised her head to look at the second sister, and said: "Nicknamed Changzhou Boy, or Fatty B, born in 1917, not the 1927 you said at all; you want me to marry a 49-year-old old man?"

Speaking to this point, Lou Xiaohan's expression instantly stiffened, knowing Lou Xiaoe had investigated the other party.

However, she still forced a smile and explained: "Not deliberately deceiving you; Hong Kong is like this; men of forty are like flowers~"

"Which flower? The flower of being fickle?"

Lou Xiaoe looked at Lou Xiaohan coldly and said: "Don't you know he is that Chinese detective sergeant who made his name by breaking the gold smuggling case?"

"That... Xiaoe~"

Lou Xiaohan saw her knowing so much about Fatty B, and wanted to introduce Han Sen's financial power and ability, but Lou Xiaoe didn't give her this opportunity.

"One wife, two concubines, eighteen girlfriends, and a veteran of the dance hall, a character even more fickle than father!"

She narrowed her eyes and asked: "You let me marry, what identity am I marrying as?"

"This..."

Lou Xiaohan stuttered rarely, but still pretended to be calm and explained: "The identity of a concubine in Hong Kong is also very noble, compared to..."

"Second Sister!"

Lou Xiaoe suddenly interrupted her and said: "You are also single; you praise him so well, why don't you marry him."

After saying this, she packed up the napkin at hand and said: "The identity of a concubine is too heavy; my mother carried it for so many years and suffered so much bullying from the eldest aunt and second aunt; I don't covet it."

"How are you talking to your sister!"

"How are you talking to your elder!"

At this time, Lou Xiaobin suddenly broke in from outside the door, with a deep slap mark on his face.

"I think you really lack upbringing! No big or small!"

Slapped by Fatty B, Lou Xiaobin was very annoyed; hearing Lou Xiaoe speak like this when entering the room, he raised his hand to teach her a lesson.

But Lou Xiaoe widened her eyes without fear and said sternly: "Try hitting me!"

After saying this, she pointed her finger at the sea outside the window and said fiercely: "Believe it or not, I'll chop you up and feed you to the fish!"

After speaking, she stood up, patted away Lou Xiaobin's finger pointing at her, and said disdainfully: "Think I'm still the little maid-born cheap slave girl you could bully at will when I was young?"

"Stop pretending to be a big brother in front of me and acting like a monkey!"

Being scolded like this by Lou Xiaoe, Lou Xiaobin didn't dare to do anything, because that inconspicuous little follower didn't know when he had a pistol in his hand, pointing at him; the kid's eyes carried a smile, but it was terrifying.

Seeing the situation was stiff, Lou Xiaohan took the initiative to hold Lou Xiaobin's arm, wanting to persuade the fight.

But Lou Xiaobin was a dog; he was only fierce when tied with a rope.

Now that someone was pulling him, he widened his eyes and scolded fiercely: "You shoot! Shoot and kill your big brother!"

"I'm not afraid of you just because you have a gun! Hong Kong is a society ruled by law!"

Saying this, he signaled the direction outside the door to scare Erhai: "Do you know who just went out? Saying it will scare you to death! Chinese detective sergeant!"

Erhai smiled, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and said: "I know, it's the one who slapped you downstairs just now!"

After saying this, he grinned and said: "That slap, scared me to death; I felt pain just watching from downstairs."

"You!"

Lou Xiaobin felt insulted, turned to look at Lou Xiaoe, and said: "You! You! What kind of attitude are you talking to me with! I am your big brother, do you know that!"

Lou Xiaohan also saw the eldest brother's emptiness, so she smoothed things over: "We are all brothers and sisters; say two sentences and say two sentences; I don't care, big brother, what are you arguing about!"

After persuading the eldest brother, she reached out to pull Lou Xiaoe and comforted: "Be good, sit down and eat."

"Full, you eat."

Lou Xiaoe looked at her, walked toward the door and said: "Come to the bank later to talk about the real estate company."

"What real estate company!?"

Lou Xiaobin was shocked by her words, then angrily said: "What can't be said here, must go to the bank!"

Lou Xiaoe had already walked to the door, turned back and stood still, looked at the two people who were shocked and suspicious, paused, and said: "It's about the commercial fraud of Huading Real Estate falsely reporting merger assets."

After saying this, looking at the shock in the eyes of the two, she said lightly: "That real estate company that father presided over the merger of is actually yours, right?"

BOOM!!!

The two were struck by lightning, as if hit by five thunders, standing there stupidly.

Mortgage, gold and silver jewelry mortgage, housing mortgage loan, real estate company, merger, bank, cash out...

All the keywords connected together were actually the plan that Lou Yu and eldest son Lou Xiaobin designed and implemented, which wasn't very thorough.

Time was really limited, and the resources Lou Yu could use were also limited; he only had time to arrange these.

According to Lou Yu's meaning, Lou Xiaobin would execute the real estate bubble plan, and he would execute the plan of exchanging bubbles for gold.

The real estate bubble plan was very simple: Lou Xiaobin bought the licenses of several real estate companies, and then used all the funds that the family could raise through all channels to sweep those bad building assets in the bank.

Such assets were often listed for sale at a particularly low price, and there were even some loan discount compensations.

Lou Xiaobin's task was to operate this real estate company, continuously sweeping bad building assets from various banks, and reasonably allocating them to the several real estate companies in his hands.

Then use loan discounts to continue to mortgage the houses in his hands, and then buy and mortgage again...

"I'm full, you two eat."

Lou Xiaoe glanced at her, and while walking toward the door, said, "Come to the bank later to chat about the real estate company."

"What real estate company!?"

Lou Xiaobin was startled by her words and immediately said angrily, "What can't be said here? Why must we go to the bank!"

Lou Xiaoe had already reached the door, but she turned back and stood still. She looked at the two, who were filled with suspicion and uncertainty, paused, and said, "It is about the matter of Huading Real Estate falsely reporting merger assets and committing commercial fraud."

After speaking, she looked at the shock in their eyes and added indifferently, "That real estate company that Father presided over the merger of—it's actually yours, isn't it?"

Boom!!!

The two were struck as if by lightning, as if hit by a thunderbolt, and stood there foolishly, stunned.

Company mortgages, gold and silver jewelry mortgages, real estate mortgage loans, real estate companies, mergers, banks, cashing out...

All these keywords linked together actually formed a plan that was not very thorough, designed and implemented by Lou Yu and his eldest son, Lou Xiaobin.

It was truly because time was limited and the resources Lou Yu could utilize were also limited; he had only just managed to arrange these things.

According to Lou Yu's intention, Lou Xiaobin was to execute the real estate bubble plan, while he would execute the plan of exchanging the bubble for gold.

The real estate bubble plan was very simple: Lou Xiaobin would buy the licenses of several real estate companies and then use all the funds the family could raise through all channels to sweep up those non-performing building assets at the bank.

Such assets were often listed for sale at extremely low prices, and there were even some loan discount compensations.

Lou Xiaobin's task was to manage this real estate company, continuously sweep up non-performing building assets from various banks, and reasonably distribute them among the several real estate companies in his hands.

Then, utilizing loan discounts, he would continue to mortgage the houses in his hands for loans, then purchase more, then mortgage again...

Just like a snowball, the real estate book value of these few real estate companies instantly inflated as if they were balloons.

If one did not look at the liabilities of these companies—and even if one did, it wouldn't matter—just by looking at the sheer base number of buildings, the data was beautiful indeed.

It could be said to be one link after another; several real estate companies were connected in a string, mutually acquiring and merging, then acquiring again, gradually forming one large company.

Although assets would be undervalued during each mortgage and interest would be spent, as long as the accounts were beautified to a satisfactory level for Oriental Era Bank in the end, the merger case could be completed.

Currently, the "large real estate company" Lou Xiaobin created, Huading Real Estate, was being mortgaged by him to Oriental Era Bank; because of funding issues, the merger case had not yet ended.

If following Lou Yu's intention, only five real estate companies were needed, which was enough to extract the 1.5 tons of gold he had invested in Oriental Era Bank.

The acquisition case had been audited and completed before he went to Yangcheng; as long as Lou Xiaoe brought the funds into Oriental Era Bank, this project would automatically complete the payment of funds.

However!

How could Lou Xiaobin possibly listen to his father? He directly more than tripled the number of real estate companies.

To earn, one must earn a big one; if he didn't earn enough of three hundred million, how could he bear to stop?

With his father laying out the plan and the whole family supporting him—even his son's pocket money had been contributed—how could he lose!

But however!

It was true that Lou Xiaoe brought funds into Hong Kong, but before the funds entered the vault, she, in the name of the Chairperson and General Manager, ordered the immediate freezing of all projects at Oriental Era Bank.

Naturally, she would not alert the enemy; instead, she used the pretext of fund reconciliation and asset auditing to cover up the actions of having already launched an economic investigation.

Lai Jiasheng, as the bank's Vice President, directly led this critical work.

What did this count as?

It was a clear lack of trust in the previous General Manager—that is, her father.

The scene of the father and daughter tearfully bidding farewell in Yangcheng was still vivid in their minds, but turning around, it was the father who had first laid an ambush to entrap his daughter, and the daughter had long been waiting for this day to scheme against her father.

Lou Xiaobin and the whole family were waiting for this money to arrive, spending huge amounts of interest every day, their hearts aching to the point of death.

Upon learning that the bank was going to reconcile accounts and funds, the family was anxious but helpless; they could only take the initiative to attack, thinking of ways to interfere with Lou Xiaoe so she wouldn't discover the flaws.

They even went so far as to stoop to hypocrisy, coming to visit and care for her every day in the name of the family needing to care for one another.

Even though their family's liquid funds were nearly exhausted and they were struggling to make ends meet, they still had to put on a brave face; every time they came here, they would feed her expensive tonics with all their might.

Everything—when Lou Xiaoe said this sentence, both Lou Xiaobin and Lou Xiaohang knew the plan had been exposed.

Especially Lou Xiaobin, who could no longer suppress his anger, stood up and cursed: "What are you saying!"

"Do you still recognize me as your brother!"

"We treat you so well, has your conscience been eaten by a dog!"

Lou Xiaohang was still stunned at this moment, her big eyes wide with disbelief.

She hadn't expected... hadn't expected that Lou Xiaoe knew everything; then her money...

Lou Xiaoe ignored Lou Xiaobin's incompetent roaring and instead looked at Lou Xiaohang, saying: "You are a lawyer; you should know what kind of crime this behavior is in Hong Kong."

After speaking, she didn't give the two any more chance to argue or bark, and turned to leave.

Lou Xiaobin was unconvinced and still wanted to stop her, but he bumped into someone at the door.

This person was thin and gaunt, with a face full of wicked smiles, his body blocking the way, and he was carrying a weapon in his hand.

Lou Xiaobin knew that Lou Xiaoe dared to come to meet them today because she was definitely prepared; these people might just be the desperate thugs she had hired.

He didn't dare to rush out to chase her, but stood upstairs and shouted: "Lou Xiaoe! You come back here! Otherwise, I won't recognize you as my sister anymore!"

Lou Xiaoe was in no mood to pay attention to him; she let Erhai open the car door and got into the Mercedes-Benz waiting on the side of the road.

Lou Xiaobin saw that the person at the door had threatened him, and then he also went downstairs, got into a car, and left. His heart was in chaos, and he truly didn't know what to do.

He angrily slammed the door, ignored the waiter's angry glare, turned around, and entered the private room again, asking Lou Xiaohang: "What do we do now?"

Lou Xiaohang was already dumbfounded at this point. Hearing his question, she murmured: "The money I put in was a high-interest loan, which has to be paid off within a month..."

"You're still in the mood to say these things!"

Lou Xiaobin shouted as if he had mania: "Just you borrowed a high-interest loan? I didn't, right? I borrowed even more than you!"

"I'm asking what we should do now!"

As if remembering something, he grabbed the leather bag on the table and said: "No! I have to go back immediately!"

"I want to dump those buildings, even if I lose the principal and forfeit the interest, I hope it's not too late!"

"It's useless~"

Lou Xiaohang seemed to have been awakened by his shouting, but being awake like this was even more painful.

She said with a somewhat dull gaze: "Since she has already shown you her trump card, it means she has already reported it to the police, and the assets are all being frozen. How can you sell them?"

"How would I know!"

Lou Xiaobin was so angry he slammed the bag in his hand onto the floor, and with a hoarse voice said: "Did she mention accusing us just now?"

"Whether she said it or not doesn't matter anymore~"

Lou Xiaohang's gaze gradually focused on her eldest brother, and she said: "This case will be dragged on by her, dragged on until we have no money to pay the bank interest, until your and my high-interest loans expire."

Lou Xiaobin heard his second sister's words, and as if awakened from a dream, he fell back into his chair, dumbfounded.

"It won't... it won't... Hong Kong is a place that follows the rule of law, right... she is my sister... it won't..."
