Wall Street Legend - Chapter 403
Chapter 403 Auction
In Hollywood movies, people are often told that justice may be late, but it will never be absent.
However, as a matter of fact, it would be great if it was always like this in reality.
When Miss Marci appeared in front of Ye Dongqing again in mid-June, he could clearly feel her fatigue. She looked thinner and less energetic than before.
After arriving on the small island, she didn’t say a few words to him, and then fell asleep. During the period, Ye Dongqing went to her room to see her several times. She slept for more than six hours before getting up, and was called up by him to eat some porridge. Then go for a walk together.
Take a walk on the boat.
Recently, I bought a Riva yacht in the name of Danshui Investment Group. It is not big, but it is very luxurious. The price is as high as more than 30 million US dollars. It can be called “Rolls Royce on the water”. Sail along the Deson River and visit the night view of Manhattan along the way.
Ye Dongqing hasn’t had any troubles recently, but it seems that Ma Xi is having a bad life.
At this moment, lying on a comfortable sofa chair, he turned to ask her, “Why are you so tired today, is it because of your father that the airsickness is?”
It’s been a while since Maxi’s wealthy father disappeared. Before that, he could only pin his hopes on being kidnapped by pirates. The number of pirates in that area is indeed not small.
However, for such a long time, no one has come to ask for a ransom, and there has been no news of any whereabouts. Most likely, it has been too bad. Ye Dongqing used some connections to inquire about the news, but in the end, nothing came of it. The reply given was that no relevant news had been received. , and no hostages matching the characteristics of the characters were found. The feedback given by the senior officials in Washington is quite reliable.
Marci told me: “Before I came out this time, my mother had divided the family property according to the will. A collection of collections, shares in the Atlantis Hotel, and cash equivalent to about 71 million euros belonged to me. The rest The ones belonged to her and my brother, in fact, she kicked me out this time, and told me not to go back if I had nothing to do, and to find me in France after a while.”
Relatively rich wealth is enough to make her comfortable for a lifetime.
Ye Dongqing didn’t focus on this. He guessed something and asked, “What danger did you and your family encounter? If not, why did your mother choose to do this?”
“Maybe.”
Marci lay down like him, picked up a glass to drink a cocktail, apple martini, with green apple juice, the taste was softer, and well covered the bitterness of the drink, and continued: “There are two ships going out to sea The search and rescue boats went missing one after another, and a dozen crew members on board were all gone, including a housekeeper of my family and a relative of mine. I knew someone must be doing it, and I was afraid of being found out. Now no one dares to help my family anymore. To search for my father.
My mother was worried that something would happen to my brother and me, so I probably had to let it go. The shares in the real estate project were transferred to another company. After all the shares were sold, my mother would bring my brother to live in France. “
From these words, Ye Dongqing probably sorted out the context of the incident, guessing that she was probably threatened.
Thinking about it is right, the backbone of the family is gone, and they hold a large amount of wealth. It is normal to be targeted by others. He always felt that there was something strange in it, but he thought that Marci’s mother could handle it well. Now it seems that someone used a knife to Put it on her neck, threatening not to allow in-depth investigation.
The status is different, and the vision is also different. In Ye Dongqing’s mind, it is probably because of the support of someone above that the two most suspected “good friends” escaped.
If it was just a simple incident, Ye Dongqing could intervene to do something, but from the current point of view, it is not easy to solve it. If he intervenes rashly, he may be involved, and the other party is obviously cruel.
Thinking of going to Washington to talk to Mr. Colin Powell when he had time, at worst he owed him a favor and asked him to find out the news, instead of telling Ma Xi about these thoughts and giving her hope that could not be realized, Ye Dongqing sighed He said: “The few bodyguards I’m looking for are still there. If this is the case, then live a good life in the future and don’t go into the horns. I think you need a period of time to rest. I can spend more time with you recently, probably not Something is too busy.”
“Thank you for your help, I feel more at ease with those bodyguards around.”
Maxi is sincerely grateful to him. Having received a Western-style education since she was a child, she didn’t feel that Ye Dongqing must do her best to help her family, not to mention the danger, and at the same time she didn’t think Ye Dongqing could help her too much.
So he rarely said these things to Ye Dongqing, except when he asked about it, the younger brother was still young, and the pressure was mainly on her mother and her.
Fortunately, Marci’s mother is more restrained and knows how to measure. If there is a big trouble from the beginning, it is hard to say whether she can survive until now.
…
Looking at the calm water and the high-rise buildings not far away, each was in a daze.
Ye Dongqing looks at Ma Xi occasionally, feeling distressed at the disgusting things she has suffered at such an age, but there is no good way to comfort her, most likely she can only rely on time to slowly heal the pain of losing a loved one, just like Same as him back then.
I’m not afraid of anyone’s jokes when I say it. In the first few months when his parents left due to an accident, his pillow was wet almost every night, and now he can’t get over it.
Before the boat reached the southern tip of Manhattan Island, Marci drank herself too much and asked someone to bring a blanket to cover her. The brand new white yacht sailed back to the Long Island area.
Facts have proved that no matter how beautiful a woman is, she doesn’t look good when she vomits. Anyway, Ye Dongqing didn’t sleep very well that night. She didn’t fall asleep for a while until the middle of the night, after letting her drink some yogurt.
When she woke up, Marci was already drinking tea on the balcony in her pajamas, chatted a few words and finished washing, and asked her to rest at home first, while Ye Dongqing boarded a helicopter and set off for the city hall.
In the city hall today, a small auction will be held, allowing some reporters to supervise on-site. The auction will determine the ownership of the remaining land.
The conflict between Ye Dongqing and that Japanese company, to put it mildly, is just a small dispute over the appearance of the building, and to put it bluntly, it is also a dispute over geomantic omen. He wants an ultra-luxury building overlooking the world’s largest metropolis. What’s the deal with a “snake-slaying sword”?
He is not superstitious, he just doesn’t like it, he doesn’t like being stepped on by a company on top of his head, so what about the world’s top 500 companies? He has made up his mind to abort the other party’s project before it even starts, and he can build it anywhere, as long as it is not next to the Cobra Building.
At the gate of the city hall.
A reporter who watched the excitement asked him: “Leo, if that Japanese company really built that building, would you give up the Cobra Building project?”
“Give up? Of course not, but even if I don’t get the land, they will pay a huge price for it. I am confident that I can push the price high enough to make them lose money. In the end, I feel comfortable losing money, and I think it’s doing charity for New York residents…”
