Siheyuan: My wife is Xu Huizhen

Chapter 578

After all, business competition is treacherous and unpredictable, and everyone is worried that the other side will use a feint to the east and attack in the west, taking advantage of the chaos to snatch away the four key prisoners.

Everyone quickly gathered together and began a tense and cautious discussion.

They lowered their voices, looked solemn, and their eyes revealed their concern and caution about the situation.

After a heated discussion, it was finally decided to act separately.

Everyone boarded different vehicles in an orderly manner, and the four prisoners were evenly distributed into two vehicles.

Two of the captives were handed over to Huo Yingdong for guarding. Huo Yingdong was steady and his eyes were sharp. He strode towards the vehicle and took over the guarding task with an unquestionable attitude, like an indestructible door god.

The other two were escorted by He Yuzhu and Du Guanghe respectively. He Yuzhu had a sharp gaze, staring at the prisoners to be escorted, exuding an air of competence and courage; Du Guanghe had a stern expression, and made preparations for the escort in an orderly manner. His aura was calm and steady, and no one dared to underestimate him.

Just like that, the two cars, like black beasts, cut through the gloomy air, loaded with a solemn atmosphere and people with important responsibilities, speeding along the street, rushing towards Lubadu's residence at lightning speed.

Along the way, the airflow created by the vehicles made the leaves on the roadside rustle, as if they were also uneasy about this unknown action.

When the vehicle finally stopped steadily near Lubadu's residence, the door was slammed open, and a group of figures in dark clothes jumped out swiftly and agilely, like evil spirits emerging from the darkness.

Their faces were as cold as ice, and their sharp eyes seemed to be able to penetrate everything. As soon as they got off the car, they dispersed impatiently and began to question the residents around them.

The residents on the street were frightened by the sudden scene. Some of them hurriedly lowered their heads and quickened their pace to leave; others stood in the distance, casting curious and fearful glances.

After a while, a vendor selling newspapers on the street corner came into their sight.

The hawker was a thin man wearing an old shirt that had been washed so much that it looked bleached. He was nervously clutching the newspaper in his hand, and his knuckles were turning white from the force.

Facing this group of aggressive people, the vendor answered tremblingly: "I...I saw Mr. Lubadu get into a black car. The car was parked at the intersection over there. After the door was opened, Mr. Lubadu seemed to struggle and seemed to want to roll down the window and get out of the car. But then a tall guy stretched out his strong arm and punched him hard on the head. I heard the sound clearly from here. Then, the man quickly pulled him back, closed the door, and drove away."

Hearing this, everyone present felt as if they were hit by a heavy hammer. Their mood became even heavier and the atmosphere dropped to freezing point.

Before this, although everyone had some suspicions in their hearts, after all, they had not yet obtained conclusive evidence, so there was still a glimmer of hope.

But now, facing such a clear situation in front of him, he was almost 100% sure that Lubadu had indeed been kidnapped!

At this critical and urgent moment, even if you decide to call the police immediately, it will probably be of no avail.

The efficiency of the police station is well known to everyone. After reporting a case, there is a long process of taking notes, followed by layers of reporting and approval, and then the actual deployment of police force to take action. After going through the cumbersome process, a lot of time has been wasted.

At this moment, every minute and every second is as precious as gold. They must race against time in a thrilling race against time!

Because according to the current situation, they have to find Lubadu successfully before noon at least. Otherwise, if it is delayed until the afternoon, there will be little time left for them to prepare a new bid.

You know, preparing a bid is not an easy task. It requires collecting massive amounts of information, repeatedly calculating data, and carefully arranging the format. Every step cannot tolerate any mistakes.

If even the bid documents cannot be completed on time, then the subsequent crucial bidding process will naturally be out of the question, and all their efforts and hard work over this period will be wasted.

Ye Han frowned and weighed the pros and cons in his mind, knowing that the situation was imminent and could not be delayed.

He gritted his teeth, and without any hesitation, his fingers quickly moved on the phone dial and dialed He Xian's number.

Every "beep" of the waiting tone in the receiver was like a heavy hammer, striking at his tense heartstrings. At this moment, he was fully expecting to find the key help to turn the tide from this close friend who had deep connections and many good friends in Haojing.

Ho Yin has been rooted in Macau for many years, and has interacted with everyone from high-ranking officials to ordinary people. With such a deep network of contacts, he may be able to find a key breakthrough in this critical moment.

At that time, Ho Yin was reviewing recent business accounts in his study. In the quiet atmosphere, the phone suddenly rang.

He picked up the receiver and heard Ye Han's anxious voice, which surprised He Xian.

After knowing each other for many years, Ye Han has always been calm and rarely asks for help so anxiously. He immediately realized the seriousness of the matter.

After Ye Han hurriedly told him the whole story, He Xian agreed without hesitation, saying in a loud voice, "Old Ye, don't worry! I will order my men to search for Lubadu's whereabouts without delay. As for the communication and coordination between the two sides, I am also happy to act as a matchmaker and ensure that the message is delivered."

Having said this, He Xian paused, his tone suddenly became serious, and he warned earnestly: "Old Ye, I have to make it clear to you. No matter how this matter develops later, I hope both of you must remain calm and must not take any extreme actions. Think about it, if despicable means such as assassination and kidnapping are used, the consequences will be disastrous once they are started. Not only will the harmony accumulated between you for many years disappear in an instant, and it will be difficult to repair it in the future, but what is more terrible is that it is very likely to trigger a series of vicious chain reactions. If everyone follows suit and does whatever it takes to achieve their goals, then the entire social order will be completely messed up and fall into chaos. At that time, none of us can expect to be immune!"

For Ye Han, the current situation is extremely urgent and must be shot.

In his mind, finding Lubadu as soon as possible and preparing the bid in full swing, so as to win the coveted gambling license in one fell swoop, has become the overriding priority.

You know, this bid is his third attempt in his long journey.

The bitter taste of failure in the first two attempts still makes him hard to let go.

This time, he felt that he had the best of time, place and people.

In terms of timing, the gaming industry in Haojing was quietly undergoing changes, the old order was loosening, and new opportunities were emerging; in terms of location, he had been working in Haojing for many years and was familiar with the local customs and practices, as well as the political and business relations, with a network of contacts spread all over the place; in terms of people, he had a group of loyal and capable people under his command, and various forces were secretly cheering for him.

But if he fails to get the license again this time, what awaits him will be an abyss of no return.

Competition is fierce and the strong prey on the weak in the land of Haojiang. If we miss this great opportunity, we will probably have no place to stay in the future.

Those former rivals will certainly intensify their suppression of him and completely squeeze him out of the gaming industry, making it even more difficult for him to hope to have the opportunity to participate in bidding again in the future.

When he thought of this, Ye Han felt a chill down his spine and broke out in a cold sweat.

Therefore, no matter how many thorns the road ahead is filled with, no matter what difficulties and obstacles we encounter, we can only succeed this time and not fail!

Thinking of this, he nodded without hesitation and agreed firmly, expressing his willingness to cooperate fully and resolve the matter at all costs.

Next, Ho Yin knew that the matter was urgent, so he immediately devoted himself to the mediation and actively acted as a liaison between the two parties.

Relying on the connections and prestige he had accumulated in the underworld over the years, he traveled around and had difficult communications with various forces, just to get them to release the imprisoned Lubadu through his own efforts.

Time passes quietly like quicksand, and every second seems to be of great weight, striking heavily on everyone's heart.

In the room filled with a depressing atmosphere, some people frowned and paced back and forth anxiously. The sound of their soles rubbing against the ground seemed to be keeping a dull rhythm for the tense situation. Some people stared at the phone on the table without blinking, as if their eyes could see through the receiver and instantly pull out the news about Lubadu.

About half an hour later, as everyone was eagerly waiting, Ho Yin's call finally came.

However, when everyone saw the expression of the person who answered the phone suddenly dim, they had already guessed that the news was not the good news that everyone was waiting for.

He was filled with indignation and said angrily:

"Forget it! In this case, let's get on the boat and leave here."

Since there was no reliable lawyer to help, and even the tender documents could not be delivered smoothly, what was the point of staying in this place? It would be better to get on the boat and return to Hong Kong.

At this time, He Yuzhu had already made up his mind that after returning to Hong Kong, he would immediately take Du Guanghe and head straight to Luzon.

It turned out that in Luzon, there was an industry belonging to Lin Wanting's master Zhao Yunhai - a huge sugarcane plantation covering tens of thousands of acres and a large sugar refinery.

Moreover, Zhao Yunhai's family has dozens of people and has lived there for generations.

He Yuzhu thought, even if Gao Kening could hide without a trace, it was impossible for Zhao Yunhai to abandon his entire family, give up this ancestral property, and hide with him.

Therefore, he decided to attack Zhao Yunhai first and teach them a lesson.

After all, those assassins who came to assassinate him were all Zhao Yunhai's apprentices. No matter what, he had to get a considerable amount of compensation from them.

Only in this way can I let go of the anger that has been pent up in my heart for so long!

Besides, Gao Ke-ning and others are the real local bosses in Haojiang.

They might be able to hide today, but could they remain hidden forever and never show up?

You know, the two places are only a few dozen miles apart, and even if you take a boat, it only takes an hour.

In the future, I will definitely have plenty of time and opportunities to find Gao Ke Ning to settle this account.

Even though we suffered a defeat here today, we will definitely win back everything we lost in the future!

At this time, He Yuzhu had already made up his mind and accepted defeat for the time being. After all, it was simply a pipe dream to find Lubadu in just a few hours.

However, at this moment, Liang Feixing suddenly shouted,

"Oh, now I remember! Gao Ke-ning once took me to a flower boat!"

Whether it is the prosperous and bustling Hong Kong or the beautiful Macau, the real estate prices are staggeringly high.

Fortunately, this place is close to the sea, so many merchants have moved their businesses to the ships.

As a result, there are not only restaurants serving delicious food on the sea, but also a variety of hotels.

Naturally, those places of decadence, debauchery and sensuality are also indispensable, which gave rise to many flower boats.

The small flower boat has extremely limited space, with only one small room that can accommodate only one guest at a time.

In sharp contrast to this is the huge flower boat, whose displacement is as high as hundreds of tons!

This ship is not only huge in size, but its interior decoration is also extremely luxurious, which can be said to be in no way inferior to those top nightclubs.

Lin Wanting showed a trace of disdain on her face and muttered:

"Since you have already been to the flower boat, what's the point of talking about this now?"

Liang Feixing hurriedly explained:

"Oh, we are not going to an ordinary flower boat. The girls on that boat are all carefully trained by Gao Kening."

Hearing this, He Yuzhu couldn't help but ask curiously:

"So, the whole ship is highly maneuverable?"

Liang Feixing nodded and responded, "That's right, and the girls on the flower boat are all of high quality.

On weekdays, this boat is not open to the public. It is actually a private place for Gao Kening to entertain relatives and friends. "

In the prosperous Hong Kong area, many wealthy people own their own luxury yachts, and of course some of them are also equipped with exquisite cruise ships.

Gao Ke Ning is no exception. She not only owns a private yacht that highlights her personal status and taste, but also a flower boat with first-class facilities.

This flower boat is usually not shown to others. Only when facing business partners will Gao Ke-ning invite them onto the boat and entertain them warmly.

At this time, He Yuzhu turned to look at Ye Han and asked:

"Have you ever heard of such a flower boat before?"

Ye Han shook his head and replied, "I've never heard of it."

Then, everyone present realized as if awakened from a dream. Previously, everyone thought they had been in a desperate situation with no hope of turning around, but who could have expected that such a clue that was like a life-saving straw would suddenly appear!
