If you cheat, money will follow

Germany, Stuttgart, Zuffenhausen.

"Wendelin, how many shares does the other party already hold?"

"According to the information currently available, it should be no less than 8%."

"Oh, so even if we grab all the remaining circulating stocks in the secondary market, it won't be enough to complete the holding, right?"

"Yes, sir. There are not many stocks left in the secondary market."

"The other party, like us, hides their positions by paying option premiums. What is their goal?"

"They should be targeting us, not the hedge funds, sir."

"You want us to go talk to them?"

"What if we don't talk?"

"Maybe they don't care too much, sir. We have no retreat now and can only continue as planned."

"Okay, then let's contact them first and see their attitude. Be sure to keep it confidential."

"Okay, sir."

…………

In the capital, Jiang Xia returned home.

Jiang Xia's mother, Xia Qingfang, is at home.

"Mom, I'm back and I miss you."

"Oh, I know I miss my mom, but I haven't had a single call this week... let mom see, um, I'm a little tanned." Xia Qingfang put down the report in her hand and walked forward.

"Let it be dark, Mom. The weather in Jiangzhou is much hotter than in Beijing. It's as hot as a boiler."

"Then you can still play for so long? Come and tell mom where you have been and what attractions you have seen in the past half month." Xia Qingfang pulled Jiang Xia to sit on the sofa.

"I've been to a lot of places, and I've taken photos of them all. Let me show them to you." Jiang Xia took out her camera from her backpack and introduced them to Xia Qingfang one by one.

"We went to the snack street. There are so many snacks there..."

"The old street is not an old building at all, it is just an antique street. It is nice to look at, but it only operates bars and nightclubs, which is a bit nondescript..."

"I also went to the museum, and the cultural relics museum..."

"Forest Park... I also went to Jiangnan Ancient Town on the outskirts. The house I lived in was a small farmhouse with small bridges and flowing water. That's what I mean. The artistic conception is very good."

"and also……"

"How can you go to so many places in half a month? Mom and your dad have also been to that ancient town, but it's far away." Xia Qingfang said

"It's quite far, but Chang Le has a car and is familiar with the road. It saves a lot of time walking up and down the country road," Jiang Xia said.

"This is Changle."

"Yes, the photo of me and him looks handsome. Mom, let me tell you, he is even more handsome in person than in the photo." Jiang Xia continued:

"When we go to tourist attractions, there are always some girls who come to disturb us and find excuses to ask Chang Le to take photos... haha..."

"You stinky girl, you just know how to pay attention to these things... Hey, does this Mercedes-Benz belong to him?"

"Yes, the Mercedes-Benz S65AMG. My uncle has always wanted to buy a car but was reluctant to buy it. It is so comfortable to sit on. It is very soft when going over bumps and there is no bump at all."

"Oh..." Xia Qingfang didn't say much, her expression was a little confused.

Several more photos were changed one after another, and when it was time to take a group photo at the water park, Jiang Xia quickly jumped away.

Xia Qingfang rolled her eyes at Jiang Xia, looked through the camera photos, skipped those with relatively intimate behavior, and then stopped on a photo.

In the photo, in the near background is a Nordic-style lakeside villa with yellow walls and gray tiles, and in the distant background is the vast East Lake, which is full of scenery and steaming.

"Is this where you live?" Xia Qingfang asked

"Yes, that's where I live. But mom, don't get me wrong. This villa has two floors. I live upstairs and Chang Le lives downstairs..." Jiang Xia explained:

"Chang Le originally planned to open another building in order to avoid suspicion. I felt that the space would not affect each other with such a large space, so I asked him not to waste it."

"That's not what I'm asking. I'm asking how much does it cost to stay in this kind of villa for one night? Can you afford it with that little money? Did Chang Le pay for it?" Xia Qingfang's expression became solemn.

"No. It's a friend of Chang Le who lives here for a long time. His friend went home recently, so Chang Le took me to live there for free." Jiang Xia said

"Such a nice villa for free?" Xia Qingfang's eyebrows gathered together unconsciously.

"Mom, you really don't need money. Why did I lie to you? Besides, Chang Le can also afford to live there." Jiang Xia explained

"Chang Le is a student. His father and mother are just like us and earn a fixed salary. How can he afford to live in such a villa?" Xia Qingfang stared at Jiang Xia closely.

"Mom, I have seen one of his cards. The card surface is black. There is an issue number and his exclusive signature on the card surface. I have never seen this kind of card before, so I searched for it on the Internet. The result I couldn't find it, but I can still brush it." Jiang Xia said while looking for it in the camera:

"No...Mom, look. This is it. I asked Chang Le what kind of card it was, and Chang Le said it was given by the bank and has no limit."

Xia Qingfang scolded: "Smelly girl, you even take pictures of other people's bank cards?"

"Mom, I'm curious. Even a boss as big as my uncle doesn't have such a card." Jiang Xia continued:

"Moreover, it was taken in front of Chang Le, and there was no secret. Seeing my curiosity, he took out another pile of black cards for me to take pictures of, including Centurion. I was embarrassed, so I took this picture. open."

"A lot more? Centurion!"

"correct."

Xia Qingfang immediately made a fuss, transferred the photo to her mobile phone, and sent it to her brother Xia Qingquan.

Not long after, the phone rang urgently.

"Hey, sister, who is this Chang Le?"

"Don't worry about this, just tell me, do you know this kind of card?"

"Sister, I asked my friend and he said that this kind of card is a credit card issued by Bank of China and Hong Kong and other international banks. It is universal and can be used in the mainland. The number means how many cards have been issued, and 12 means the 12th A card. This kind of card is not open to the public, and those who can get it are the top big guys in the industry. This Chang Le must be the same. You can even take other people's cards. Let me introduce it to my brother. It will give you another way." Xia Qingquan speaking of

"Okay, I understand. Don't always think about these evil things, and just go about your tobacco and alcohol business."

"Sister... Where am I doing something evil..."

At around 10 o'clock in the evening, Jiang Zhicheng returned home and asked as soon as he entered the door: "Xiaoxia is back?"

"I'm back, I should have fallen asleep by now." Xia Qingfang replied

"Oh, did you have fun?"

"She must be happy to see her. Full VIP service. Your old classmate's son is so awesome. He stole our daughter's soul away in just one week."

In the afternoon, when Xia Qingfang listened to Jiang Xia's introduction, Jiang Xia's face was full of tenderness and sweetness when she mentioned Chang Le, and she was very involved and intoxicated.

Xia Qingfang is a close friend of Mo Ruomu and knows that her daughter has fallen into her emotions.

"Haha, let it take its course. Didn't I talk to you about it?" Jiang Zhicheng was naturally happy, and the process was designed this way.

"Don't be too happy first. Let me tell you, your old classmate may have gone astray." Xia Qingfang said solemnly.

"We got sidetracked? What do you say?" Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhicheng stopped smiling.

Xia Qingfang immediately told Jiang Zhicheng some of what Jiang Xia had said during the day, and then said:

"Zhicheng, the son of your old classmate drives a luxury car, lives in a villa, and has a large credit card. Isn't this a wrong way to go?"

Xia Qingfang continued: "Let me take a precaution first. If things really go astray, the things I agreed to before will no longer work. Although our Xia family has deviated from the focus in recent years, we must not get involved in such things. I can’t afford this man.”

"Well, don't worry about this. The principles and bottom lines cannot be broken." Jiang Zhicheng nodded and continued:

"However, maybe you are overthinking it. Based on my understanding of Chang Xueqin, he would not be this kind of person. Maybe there are other reasons."

"I also hope there will be other reasons." Xia Qingfang said

"It's better to ask directly." Jiang Zhicheng was unsure. Xia Qingfang was not someone who spoke freely.
