Chapter 118 Chapter 119 [I also want to save face]

Friday, October 8

Yongjin Real Estate Co., Ltd. went public and issued 2500 million new shares, raising a total of 2500 million yuan, and Li Wendi bought 100 million shares.

On that day, the share price of Yongjin Real Estate remained at 1.3 yuan, without much increase.

As the market was about to close, Deng Jiaren approached Li Wendi and made an appointment to meet at a restaurant in Central. However, Deng Jiaren did not specify what they were going to discuss. Li Wendi vaguely guessed the purpose. What Li Wendi did not expect was that Deng Xiaotong was also there.

"Xiaotong is here too. Brother Jiaren is looking for me today about the listed company, right?" Li Wendi said with a faint smile, and pulled out a chair and sat down. In fact, Li Wendi really didn't have the heart to screen companies for them. After all, this was not Li Wendi's own business. He had been assassinated some time ago, and he was in no mood to help.

"Well, I have found a company. The boss doesn't have much influence and the company is not large. It is a good choice." Deng Jiaren handed the sorted information file to Li Wendi, "Here is the information of the company. Take a look first."

Li Wendi took the document, flipped through it roughly, and his expression changed a little. He said, "Brother Jiaren, I have already bought 100 million shares of Yongjin Real Estate and I am ready to make a fortune. Can I choose another one?"

He didn't want the share price of Yongjin Real Estate to plummet and he wouldn't make a penny.

Deng Jiaren thought for a while and said, "I have been choosing for a long time before I found this one. If I choose again, I don't know how long I will have to wait."

"Okay, then I'll choose a time to sell off. I can make a small profit anyway." Li Wendi didn't want to offend the Deng family, but he also knew that the Deng family urgently needed a listed company to whitewash themselves.

"Why don't you sell those stocks to us? How about 1.5 yuan?" Deng Xiaotong suddenly suggested, without any humble look on her face, still as cold as ever.

Li Wendi smiled and shook his head, saying, "1.5 yuan is too low. I can make at least 100 million yuan from Yongjin Real Estate Company. There is no reason to sell it at this time."

Hearing this, Deng Xiaotong's face turned cold. In her impression, Li Wendi owed the Deng family a lot of favors. How could she dare to refuse now? She didn't care about the past favors at all.

Deng Jiaren said, "Wendy, do you have any idea to acquire Yongjin Real Estate as soon as possible? We only have 900 million in funds."

Li Wendi curled his lips and said, "We can only drive up the stock price, turning 900 million into 1800 million, and then push the stock price down. We will try our best to buy at a low price, buy enough stocks, and finally negotiate with the boss of Yongjin Real Estate Company."

"Or you can ask a securities company to do it. This is safer. I'm an amateur and can't handle acquisitions."

"I have already contacted the securities companies. They all carried out the acquisition in accordance with the rules. The initial capital required is 1500 million." Deng Jiaren sighed and said, "Raising the stock price and magnifying the principal, the acquisition takes too long, and the failure rate also increases exponentially."

"Brother Jiaren, I made a lot of money using this method last time. If it was other methods, I wouldn't understand." Li Wendi said with a smile.

"Let me get straight to the point. I know you made a lot of money from Hengyao Real Estate Company. Can you lend me 1000 million? Don't worry, the interest will be calculated according to the bank's rules." Deng Jiaren asked with a smile.

Li Wendi cried and laughed, "Brother Jiaren, you are late. I have already invested the money. Now I only have a few hundred thousand on hand. It is impossible for me to take out 1000 million."

"Is that so?" Deng Jiaren looked at Li Wendi deeply, as if he didn't quite believe it, but he could do nothing about it, because Li Wendi's wings were already strong enough and he didn't need to rely entirely on He Liansheng and the Deng family's power.

Of course, Deng Jiaren also wanted to use his money to lay eggs. Even if the acquisition was unsuccessful, the money could be returned to Li Wendi later. After all, Li Wendi could not pose a threat to the Deng family for the time being.

"If I don't have 1000 million, 500 will do." Deng Xiaotong said coldly.

Li Wendi no longer avoided Deng Xiaotong's words and sneered, "So today is the Hongmen Banquet. It seems that I have to borrow this money."

"Hahaha!! Wendi, don't take it personally. Xiaotong just said it casually. She doesn't mean to borrow money." Deng Jiaren quickly tried to smooth things over and changed the subject, "We are short of funds. We can only expand our capital from Yongjin Real Estate."

Deng Jiaren was naturally more aware of Li Wendi's current power. He was no longer the one who could be threatened at will. Now he had to give him some respect and decency.

"Expanding capital also requires professionals, so I can't help much." Li Wendi said with an unpleasant expression. Since you don't want to be shameless when you give me face, I'd better not give it to you.

Deng Jiaren noticed Li Wendi's mood change and said with a smile, "Wendi, men should be more generous. There is no point in arguing with women."

"I'm really in a bad mood, and I have some other things to do. I'll take my leave now. Let's get together again later." Li Wendi stood up and left the table, and the bodyguard followed him.

Deng Jiaren did not say anything to keep her, his eyes turned cold, and Deng Xiaotong looked so arrogant that she was not even interested in looking at Li Wendi.

Even children know that 'you need to apologize if you do something wrong', but Deng Jiaren actually tried to fool him with just a few words. Who did he think he was, a servant of the Deng family?
Li Wendi was shouting in his heart as he walked. Even though he didn't have the capital to fall out with the Deng family, nor was he someone that the Deng family could manipulate at will, he was still thinking about "getting something for nothing" without thinking about whether he had the qualifications to do so.

After Li Wendi completely left the restaurant, Deng Jiaren said to Deng Xiaotong with a gloomy face, "Li Wendi is no longer the same Li Wendi as before. Don't use the same tricks you used when you were little to deal with him. Now that he's been pissed off by you, where are we going to find funding?"

"Hmph! Why should you be afraid of Li Wendi? If you can give the same interest rate as the bank, can't you find the funds?" Deng Xiaotong said somewhat unconvinced.

"You..." Deng Jiaren was so angry that he stuttered. After calming down, he said, "Bank loans all require collateral. Where can we find collateral? If we borrow money from Li Wendi, we can extend the repayment period. As for the interest, that's just talk."

"Li Wendi once managed Hengyao Real Estate, which was just listed. It was the business of Chen Fenben's family, and Li Wendi took a piece of it away from us. Do you think we need Li Wendi's help?"

Deng Xiaotong finally understood the importance of Li Wendi, but it was definitely impossible for her to apologize to Li Wendi or to please Li Wendi, so she chose not to speak and sat there with an unnatural expression.

Deng Jiaren couldn't bear to continue talking and had to think of another way.

The next afternoon, Li Wendi finally heard the news that Lin Jianye had been sentenced to ten years in prison.

Li Wendi is of course very dissatisfied with the verdict, but he will not file another lawsuit because this is the British world and British judges will not allow themselves to make a wrong judgment.

Moreover, Li Wendi would not let Lin Jianye live too long. He also thought that the second condition agreed by Zhang Wenhuai was unlikely to be achieved, so Li Wendi found Zhang Yan.

"Lin Jianye was sentenced to ten years in prison." Li Wenming stood in front of the French window, looking at the view of Victoria Harbour, and spoke in a very calm tone.

Zhang Yan was surprised and said, "What? A burglary and murder case was only sentenced to ten years! Aren't those foreigners afraid of what the media will write about them?"

"They must have bribed the newspaper. Never mind. Just help me do two things. Remember not to leave any evidence for others." Li Wendi waved his hand. He had expected such a result. He just felt a little disappointed, a loss of influence on himself.

"Are you looking for someone to kill Lin Jianye?" Zhang Yan asked.

"Well, wait until Lin Jianye is sent to prison and then find someone to do it. One more thing, you go spread the news that 'the reason why Lin Jianye was sentenced to ten years in prison is the result of protection by senior police officers.'" Li Wendi said.

"Will there be any trouble if I spread this news?" Zhang Yan was a little worried.

Li Wendi said speechlessly, "So I told you to be careful."

“They should be able to guess it.”

"It's just a guess. They won't do anything for now without evidence." Li Wendi had to vent his anger.

"Okay, I'll do it." Zhang Yan felt Li Wendi's anger and didn't dare to refuse again.
