Chapter 91
Lewis returned to the "Proud Eagle" building, and an impromptu meeting was formed to form a group responsible for the transfer of the Ainia project.
"The volume of the Ainia project is too large," Lewis said. "It may not be easy to find a company to take over the entire project at a time. Albert, can you see if you can split the assets and projects into parts and cooperate with them?" Valuable assets are sold in batches.”
"Okay." The subordinate replied.
Lewis flipped through the information, and his brows were really frowned.
The Ainia project is really intricate.It was because the project involved a lot, and it was overseas, that it was difficult to manage thoroughly, so that Hughes took advantage of the loopholes and caused a gangrene.
Thinking of this, Lewis sighed slightly.
After the meeting, Lewis drove to see Old Liu and Uncle Qi.
Old Liu and Seventh Uncle were waiting for him in the study in Liu's house.As soon as Lewis got home, he went to the study without changing his clothes.When Uncle Seven and Old Liu saw him, they also had tears in their eyes: "Are you here?"
Lewis nodded slightly, and asked Lao Liu with a smile: "Father, how is your illness?"
Old Liu was still in a daze, and it took a while to remember that he was "terminally ill". He coughed twice as if to remedy it immediately, and said, "Uh cough cough...it's still the same."
Lewis then sat down and said to Uncle Seven: "I didn't mean to delay coming to see Uncle and Father. The main reason is that I'm going back to 'Proud Eagle' first."
"I heard." Seventh Uncle said, "Is it a meeting to consider dismantling the Ainia project and reselling it?"
"Yes." Lewis nodded, "The whole project is too big, and ordinary companies don't have the strength to take it over. Those who have the strength may be willing to take risks."
Uncle Qi said, "Before, didn't you go to Mocheng to discuss cooperation with 'Qianmo'?"
"Hmm..." Lewis nodded awkwardly.
He did go to Mocheng, and also met people in "Qianmo", but he mainly went to "communicate with Qianmo" in "Peach Blossom Spring" with Hughes.
"Yes," Lewis answered bravely, "but there are also many concerns over there. They feel that the size is too large, and I didn't agree with them on the price."
Uncle Seven asked, "How much are they asking for?"
Lewis gestured.
Old Liu jumped up when he heard it: "It's better to grab it!"
Uncle Qi smiled: "We are reduced to selling items, they must be taking advantage of the fire to rob, isn't it just robbing?"
"It's really taking advantage of the fire." Lewis said, "The price is too unreasonable, and I can't agree."
Uncle Qi said: "But don't refuse so desperately. It's better to sell than not to sell. If you really have no choice, sell it to 'Qian Mo'."
Old Liu sighed when he heard the words, gritted his teeth and said, "It's all the fault of that rebellious guy Hughes! Why is he so hateful? What does the Liu family owe him? Obviously he owes our family! He is not my seed, I But he raised him to be a proud son of heaven, so let it be that he is not grateful, and he will bite me instead! What a wolf's ambition!"
Lewis frowned slightly, and only said: "It's useless to talk about it now. The time bombs have already been set, and the most important thing for us now is how to 'defuse the bombs'."
Uncle Qi said, "I can't even dismantle it, so I can only throw the bomb out, let's throw it to Qianmo, don't bargain!"
Lewis pondered for a while, then said: "If you can't come up with another good plan within a week, then sell it to 'Qian Mo'."
Uncle Qi nodded and said, "I agree. I don't know what the boss thinks?"
Old Liu sighed helplessly, and said, "How else can I see? I have no eyes!"
Lewis comforted Lao Liu a few words, and said that Lao Liu should take a good rest when he was sick, and don't think too much.Lao Liu played the role of a terminally ill patient, so he had no choice but to agree.
After a while, Lewis and Uncle Seven left the study.
Uncle Qi walked with Lewis and said, "Have you talked to Lao Xiu?"
"Talk? Talk about what?" Lewis didn't seem to understand.
Uncle Seven said, "You don't necessarily believe everything I say, do you? Didn't you confront Lao Xiu?"
When Lewis heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer: "I'm looking for it."
"But it's useless?" Seventh Uncle asked.
Thinking of Hughes' attitude, Lewis was quite frustrated: "He is full of lies. He always treats me as a fool. He also hopes that I will always be a fool."
Uncle Qi smiled and said, "He's not the only one like this."
Lewis was startled, and said, "What do you mean?"
"Isn't your dad the same? What are you talking about terminally ill! Did you see that he was a liar early on?" Uncle Qi smiled and said, "Since you lied to the big guy before you went to Ainia, I knew You're not a child anymore. It's just that people still see you that way."
"Oh?" Lewis' heart was slightly touched: Indeed, everyone still treats him as a child, and they don't discuss it with him, they just want to coax him.
Uncle Seven said again: "I really treat you as an adult, a person like me, and talk to you that way. If you can trust me, you should know that I am not a person who easily betrays my teammates. My bottom line is The Liu family business. As long as I don’t touch this, I am very casual. I turned against Hughes because he wanted to hurt the foundation of the Liu family. Besides, I don’t care about other things.”
Lewis glanced at Uncle Qi, he believed it.Seventh Uncle has indeed always been like this.Before, Seventh Uncle and Hughes formed an alliance, which was quite interesting, and when he knew that Hughes wanted to change the "Proud Eagle" regulations, Seventh Uncle turned his back on it.This proves that Uncle Qi's bottom line is indeed Liu's family business.As long as this bottom line is not crossed, everything is easy to talk about.
But is that the bottom line for Lewis?
Lewis really wanted to know what his bottom line was.
For Hughes, he has retreated more and more.
Uncle Qi stared at Lewis as if observing his reaction.After a while, Uncle Seven said, "Then are you willing to fight for the Liu family?"
Lewis looked at Uncle Seven and replied, "Of course."
Uncle Qi smiled with satisfaction and said, "I also know that if Hughes is such a bastard and you are willing to help him betray his family, then you are really a bastard and an idiot."
What Uncle Seven said so well, Lewis seemed to be slapped in the face.
Hughes is such a bastard, if you are willing to help him betray his family, then you are a bastard and an idiot!
This is not bad.
Lewis really sees no reason to stay with Hughes unless he's out of his mind.
Lewis held out his hand and shook hands with Uncle Qi.
Uncle Qi shook his hand heavily, and said, "After that, we will have a happy cooperation."
Lewis nodded and said, "I hope you really respect me."
Uncle Qi smiled: "In the adult world, respect is not given by others, but earned by yourself. I hope you understand this as soon as possible."
Uncle Qi's eyes had an indescribable sense of control, and he looked like a villain no matter how he looked.Lewis thought to himself: Maybe every man in the Liu family has a control freak with no sense of morality in his heart—even Hughes is no exception, but I am an exception.
Although Lewis worked very hard to dismantle and sell the Ainia project, it still fell short of expectations.In the end, he also respected the opinions of most of the board of directors, and sold the project to the "Qianmo" group at a low price.
Not long after this happened, the well-informed Uncle Qi received a shocking piece of information: "'Qianmo' transferred this project to a local company in Ainia for full contracting. And this company was started by Hughes. of."
Uncle Qi was shocked, and after a while, he smoked his cigar again, thinking: "Is Lewis really that stupid? Still standing on Hughes' side?"
The so-called is to employ people without suspicion, and doubt people without suspicion.
Uncle Qi thought about it carefully, but still felt that Lewis was unreliable, so he called Yancha.
Yancha quickly decided to retract the confession and decided to testify against Lewis.After Shao Dangui found out, he immediately dissuaded her: "You know this has nothing to do with Lewis?" Yancha said, "You know, you can get a reduced sentence if you confess your accomplice!" Not to mention the money Uncle Qi promised to Yancha of.Anyway, if this incident breaks out, Yancha will go to jail, so it's better to get another back, which can not only reduce the sentence but also earn money.
Shao Dangui only said: "Are you dreaming? You are perjury!"
Yancha was displeased, and pushed the door out, refusing to continue arguing with Shao Dangui.When Yancha was running downstairs wearing high heels, she bumped into someone at the corner—a tall man.
Yancha took two steps back in fright, and looked up, that face——it looked somewhat similar to Lewis, but its temperament was quite different.
"Are you..." Yancha asked in amazement.
The other party smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Zeus."
-
In the office of "Proud Eagle", Lewis is still working overtime.He may have never worked so hard in his life.At this moment, he had a deep understanding of the difficulty of success.
"Dongdong"——Mary knocked on the office door, and then walked in: "Lewis, you have an appointment with the boss of 'Qianmo'. It's time to go."
Lewis rubbed his dry eyes, looked at the clock, and sighed, "So it's already so late."
Regarding the resale of the Ainia project, there are still some details to be added. For this reason, Lewis did make an appointment with the boss of "Qianmo".When Lewis went to Mocheng last time, he already knew that the boss of "Qianmo" was an old friend of Hughes.Lewis also knew that if he packaged and sold the project to "Qianmo" at a low price, it was tantamount to selling it to Hughes at a low price.
But as Hughes said, he had no other choice.
Lewis arrived at the HHotel's high-rise executive suite with a gray mood.
As soon as Lewis entered, he smelled a familiar fragrance-moonlight swimming pool.
The scent put Lewis in a trance.
After a while, a person walked out of the suite—Hughes.
Lewis said in surprise, "Is that you?"
Hughes poured champagne with a smile: "Yeah, surprise?"
Lewis was almost annoyed: "I'm sorry, I'm very busy. I assigned this time to the boss of 'Qianmo'..."
"Oh," Hughes said, "I am."
With that said, Hughes showed Lewis the letter of appointment as if to prove himself, and the date is today.
Lewis was really shocked: "How... how?"
"Oh, my old friend was too careless." Hughes said, taking a sip of champagne, "accidentally got my way."
Lewis understood somewhat, and only sneered and said, "You don't want to let go of your old friend, do you?"
"In the mall, there are no permanent friends." Hughes said, "When he got the Ainia project at a low price and wanted to resell it to me at a high price, I had no friendship with him."
Lewis shivered unconsciously, turned his head away: "Then why did you ask me to come?"
Hughes handed Lewis a glass of champagne and said, "You know, Lao Qi instructed Li Yan to sue you today?"
Lewis raised his eyebrows and didn't take the champagne, just said: "I haven't heard of it, but I guess he will do it."
When Hughes saw that Lewis didn't pick it up, he put down the champagne and said, "What can you do if you guess? What if he lets rock tea bite you to death in court?"
Lewis walked to the French window and said: "All the conversations between me and Uncle Qi have been recorded, including his own words to instruct Yancha to threaten me. If necessary, I will use it as evidence in court - but I don't think there is any Necessary, as long as I play the recording to him, he will know how to do it."
Hughes was a little surprised, smiled, and said, "Amazing, my little Yi."
Lewis sneered and said, "You all say I'm not bad, but in fact, everyone is just kidding me like a child."
Hughes also walked to the French window, looked at the beautiful scenery, and shook his head: "No, if I didn't treat you as an adult man, how could I do that to you? I'm not a pervert."
Lewis said coldly: "You may be, maybe you are."
Hughes smiled, suddenly pressed Lewis against the floor-to-ceiling glass, and whispered to him: "Maybe, maybe."
Lewis felt the heat in his ears, suddenly flustered, struggling and said, "What do you want to do?"
Hughes pointed to the urban neon lights outside the window, and said, "The high-level scenery here is beautiful, I want you to enjoy it."
Lewis was on the glass wall, being pressed by Hughes, watching the scenery for an hour, panting.
