Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 609: The Eternal Pain of the Chinese People

Twenty trillion, and it’s in US dollars. What a terrifying number. Even Mary Theretingi, who came from a wealthy family, was frightened by this number, because their family could only be considered a medium-sized family at best, and the funds were far from reaching this number. It would be good to have half of Lu Shaohua’s.

Let’s not talk about how big the number is, let’s talk about the time. Marie Theretingi’s family has been rising for many years. It has been passed down for decades or even a hundred years, and they have been struggling to achieve today’s achievements. But Lu Shaohua has only risen in a short nine years.

Nine years, what kind of concept is this? How terrible it is. If he is given another nine years, or two nine years, how much wealth will Lu Shaohua have? No one could have expected that maybe in a few years, Lu Shaohua would become nothing, or maybe in a few years, Lu Shaohua would become comparable to those families that have been passed down for hundreds of years.

However, Li Zhijie ignored Marie Theretin's surprise because he was used to it. After all, the funds he had on hand were tens of billions or even hundreds of billions of dollars, and he had long been numb to it. The amount of money was just a number to him.

"Now you know how terrifying Xiaohua is, right? If he wants to attack your family, it won't take long for your family to be wiped out in the long river of history." At this point, Liu Mingzhang paused again, then changed the subject and asked, "Also, I told you a while ago that your family members should not participate in the Asian financial market. Have you told your family members?"

"What do you mean?" Marie-Tredin looked confused. Li Zhijie had told her about this at the time, but Marie-Tredin didn't take it seriously and forgot about it afterwards. Now that Li Zhijie brought up the old matter again, Marie-Tredin's heart skipped a beat. She seemed to understand a little and asked. "What did you mean by 'him' last time?"

"Hmm." Li Zhijie sighed. From Marie-Tredin's tone and expression, Li Zhijie knew that Marie-Tredin didn't take this matter to heart. He couldn't help but feel powerless and said, "I am Chinese. I don't care what happens in Asian countries, but Hong Kong will soon be Chinese territory. It is not allowed to be violated. Xiaohua also means the same thing."

Li Zhijie revealed a message, that is, since your family is already involved, we can ignore it, but Hong Kong will soon be Chinese territory and cannot be violated. To put it bluntly, he wanted to tell Marie Therese that you can stir up trouble in the financial markets of Asian countries, but you cannot touch Hong Kong. If you dare to touch Hong Kong, not only will he, Li Zhijie, take action, but Lu Shaohua will not let them go either.

Marie-Tredin was also a very smart person. She understood the intention of Li Zhijie's words as soon as she heard it. She nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, I will tell them not to participate in the attack on Hong Kong."

"That's good." Li Zhijie nodded and said in a deep voice, then closed his eyes to rest, as if he was too lazy to talk.

This was indeed the case. Li Zhijie should have been excited and happy about getting married, but the moment Marie Therese saw Lu Shaohua, the look on her face made Li Zhijie helpless. He had to warn her and also remind her not to participate in the Asian financial market. But what was the result?

Marie Teredine didn't take his reminder to heart, which disappointed the male chauvinist Li Zhijie. However, things had developed to this point, and Li Zhijie also remembered the bottom line that Lu Shaohua had told him at the beginning, that is, he couldn't touch Hong Kong. If he touched Hong Kong, Lu Shaohua would turn his face against him. Li Zhijie had no choice but to make amends, and his good mood was gone.

Some people may ask, Li Zhijie does not need to make any remedial measures, and can just ask Marie Theretin's family not to get involved. There is no need to say so much. But don't forget that the financial tycoons led by Soros have been eyeing the Asian financial market for a long time. As early as the end of 96, they had already entered the financial markets of various Asian countries and lurked. In other words, they have invested a lot of money in the Asian financial market.

Well, how about withdrawing the funds directly? This seems to be a feasible method, right?

But is it really possible?

The answer is obvious: No.

Li Zhijie considered it carefully. Not to mention that withdrawing funds now would cause losses to the Marie Trettin family, their family would never withdraw. On the other hand, if their family suddenly withdrew their investment, it would inevitably arouse suspicion from others and might indirectly affect Lu Shaohua's plan.

Lu Shaohua had no idea what happened to Li Zhijie and Marie Theretin on their way back. He and Chen Guobang and others stayed in the presidential suite of the hotel, took a shower and went to bed. He didn't want to care about other things and was too lazy to care about them.

The next day was the wedding day of Li Zhijie and Marie Theretin. Lu Shaohua, who was attending the wedding, naturally had to be present. However, Lu Shaohua did not go to the church to take the oath or witness the oath. Instead, he came directly to the cocktail party, sat aside, and drank red wine quietly.

Chen Guobang and his friends were the same. They had no interest in going to church. The reason was very simple. Lu Shaohua and his friends were Chinese, not Westerners. They believed in Buddhism, not Christianity. Why go to church? Why not just have a drink of red wine at the cocktail party?

But Lu Shaohua and his friends miscalculated. They had originally wanted to enjoy the fine red wine quietly, but unfortunately, Lu Shaohua's "celebrity face" betrayed him. Many people in the business community knew him, and when they saw him there, they all rushed over to say hello, hoping to make friends with this amazing business tycoon.

What else could Lu Shaohua do? He could only treat people with a smile, chat with them, and claim that he was attending the wedding in a private capacity, in order to reject those who wanted to discuss business.

As the host, that is, the head of Marie Theretin's family, he naturally had to show up. After all, today was his daughter's wedding, and Lu Shaohua's arrival today was a bit like the man's representative. Of course, he couldn't be rude, and it was inevitable to say hello and chat.

Fortunately, Li Zhijie issued a warning in advance and sent a signal to his family through Marie Theretin's mouth, otherwise this meeting would definitely become a commercial one, and Lu Shaohua would be pulled in to discuss cooperation and business on the spot.

Things went extremely smoothly, and Lu Shaohua was happy to have some peace and quiet, not having to deal with so many things. He would occasionally chat with others, and then sit with Chen Guobang happily drinking red wine, chatting about family matters, and talking about things in Shenzhen.

"Xiaohua, why didn't you handle the last incident with Country R cleanly and let it go?" Chen Guobang asked.

In Chen Guobang's opinion, the last incident in the small R country ended hastily, which was not like Lu Shaohua's character. But in the end, it ended hastily, which made Chen Guobang very puzzled. Now, with such a good opportunity today, Chen Guobang must ask about it.

"End?" Lu Shaohua smiled faintly, and then said, "End, they think it's a good idea, they are trying to make trouble, how can it end just like that?"

"Then why has it been delayed until now?" Chen Guobang asked again.

"Ah!" Lu Shaohua did not rush to answer, but sighed helplessly, and then said, "Time is running out for me."

Yes, time was not waiting for him. If Phoenix Group had not been facing a crisis at that time, how could Lu Shaohua have let it end so hastily? After Phoenix Group got out of the predicament, Lu Shaohua did not take any action because the Asian financial crisis was about to come and Lu Shaohua had no time to deal with them.

Hearing this, Chen Guobang understood what Lu Shaohua meant. Knowing that the time was not right, he also sighed and said, "How about this, when the time is right in the future, remember to tell me when you want to take action, and I will also go to the Little R Country to show off my power."

Don't forget that Chen Guobang was once a special forces soldier and a man of blood. He has only changed his ways and become a senior executive of Phoenix Group. He looks gentle, but once he takes off his suit and tie, he becomes a sharp knife, a sharp knife that can scare the enemy into trembling with fear.

"Haha!" Lu Shaohua laughed, shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly, "You, Brother Zhijie, Brother Jianwei, Brother Qian, the four of you, all want to lead the team to the small country R to stir up trouble, and you all want to fight. I don't know what to say. The family also needs someone to protect it. You can't go together, right?"

Lu Shaohua really found it difficult to make a decision. Just as he said, Xie Jianwei, Li Zhijie, and Qian Qian all volunteered to lead the team to the small country R. Now Chen Guobang has joined the list, and Lu Shaohua really doesn't know who to let go.

"I don't care. I will go there anyway. I will definitely not destroy the Yamaguchi-gumi. If possible, it would be better if I could kill my way into Mount Fuji and burn down the Yasukuni Shrine and the tablets of those second-level war criminals." Chen Guobang said viciously.

Lu Shaohua fully understood Chen Guobang's behavior. His hatred was no less than Chen Guobang's, but he was more rational and could still control himself.

However, at the same time, Lu Shaohua couldn't help feeling powerless. With the changes of the times, those children born in the 1990s didn't know that their ancestors died under the bayonets of the little R people. They all loved Japan and South Korea, and finally ended up being labeled as idiots. It was very sad.

"Okay, I'll let you go then." What else could Lu Shaohua say but to agree.

While Lu Shaohua and Chen Guobang were talking, Li Zhijie and Marie Therese finished their wedding in the church and had returned to the reception to toast the guests. Naturally, Lu Shaohua and his friends were also there, and they drank three glasses with them and said some words of blessing, and that was the end of the party.

The cocktail party lasted until noon, and Lu Shaohua and his party returned to the hotel, ordered some food to fill their stomachs, returned to their rooms to rest for a while, and got up in the afternoon to say goodbye to Li Zhijie and his wife who came to see them off, boarded the plane and returned to Hong Kong.
