Chapter 208 Charity Auction 8

"Oh, okay Mr. Guo."

Pitt's auction career has also broken records, especially in charity auctions, he has broken the record in Hong Kong.

"Mr. Jiang is offering 30 million pounds now. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price?"

Jiang Chengfeng looked at Lin Dong with expectant eyes, hoping for a miracle to happen, but unfortunately, Lin Dong disappointed him.

Lin Dong was slightly tilting his head to ask Miss Guo San about something!

"Wei Fang, will Uncle Guo attend the banquet?"

Miss Guo nodded, "Brother Dong, do you have something to ask my father?"

"The current bid is 30 million pounds. Is there anyone who wants to raise the price?" Pete reminded for the second time.

"Well, it is indeed something very important. Could you please tell my uncle?"

Lin Dong did not look at the auction table, nor did he look at Jiang Chengfeng. He still turned his head slightly to chat with Miss Guo San.

At the coming-of-age ceremony in Hong Kong, most parents just say a few opening remarks and then leave.

Because this is a party for young people, everyone will be very reserved when there are elders present.

"Of course, these are just small matters. Dad has always admired Brother Dong and said that you are the best among the younger generation in Hong Kong!"

"The current bid is 30 million Hong Kong dollars. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?" Pete reminded for the third time.

Lin Dong noticed that everyone's eyes were on him, and he gently pushed away Miss Guo San's hand that was holding his arm.

He picked up two glasses of champagne and handed one to Miss Guo San. The two of them clinked glasses together. While putting the champagne to their lips, they looked towards the auction table.

Jiang Chengfeng's expectant eyes gradually turned into disappointment, but he was not depressed. Wasn't it expected?

After calming down, he has already figured out how to minimize the impact of today's events.

"3, 2, 1. Congratulations to Mr. Jiang for winning today's grand finale treasure. Thank you Mr. Jiang for your contribution to Hong Kong's charity."

"Pah, pah, pah, pah, pah..."

Lin Dong took the lead in applauding Jiang Chengfeng, and his sincere smile brought the charity auction to a close.

After Alia and the Red Cross staff came on stage to express their gratitude, the charity auction ended successfully.

Because Mr. Jiang Chengfeng's check has not been cashed yet.

Jiang Chengfeng, Ailia and the Red Cross staff whispered a few words and walked to Lin Dong.

Lin Dong smiled and spoke first, "Mr. Guo, congratulations on obtaining the treasure. Don't worry, I'll apologize."

"Boss Lin, I'm sorry. I was reckless today. It's all my own fault. Can you spare me a moment to talk?"

Jiang Chengfeng bowed very respectfully and interrupted Lin Dong's words. His voice was quite loud, at least the people nearby could hear it clearly.

"Of course, it's an honor."

"Brother Dong, there is a tea room next to the banquet hall, please follow me."

Hearing that Lin Dong agreed to Jiang Chengfeng's request to let her go for a moment to talk, Miss Guo San quickly put down her wine glass and led the way.

"Ms. Guo, please wait a moment. Mr. Jiang, please go ahead. I'm going to the parking lot to get something. I'll be there soon."

Guo Weifang understood Lin Dong's meaning and was very touched by his attentiveness.

Miss Guo San knew that this was because she was afraid that Ziyuncha would be taken too late and discovered by her father. If she didn't make up for it quickly, she would be worried about having to explain herself.

Thinking that his father and mother would be here soon, Guo Weifang became a little worried. He called the servants and took Jiang Chengfeng to the tea room first.

Lin Dong waved his hand to stop Zhu Mingxiu from speaking, and walked quickly towards the parking lot.

How could she not know what Zhu Mingxiu wanted to say? All she had to do was go and get it.

The key point is that Zhu Mingxiu will definitely not be able to find it if he goes there, because there is no Ziyun tea in the car at all, and there are still more than ten kilograms of it, all in the cave!

When Zhu Mingxiu saw Lin Dong taking out a gift box from the back seat, he was obviously confused.

Zhu Mingxiu remembered very clearly that when Lin Dong got on the car, he only brought two gift boxes, which he gave to her to register.

If she can't figure it out, just don't think about it. This young master has always been very mysterious. She just needs to do her job well.

As soon as Lin Dong walked into the tea room, Jiang Chengfeng waved his hand and asked the servant who was making tea to leave.

"Mr. Lin, I apologize again for my recklessness today. I'm sorry."

"Mr. Lu's incident was an accident. I was grateful that our fathers were close friends, so I brought him out to broaden his horizons. I didn't expect that he would be so wild and ruin Mr. Lin's mood. I hope Mr. Lin will spare Mr. Lu's life."

"According to the rules of the auction, the highest bidder wins. Mr. Guo did nothing wrong. As for the matter of the golden-haired boy, we will talk about it later."

Hearing the implication of Lin Dong's words, he realized that he was unwilling to let Lu Shaoran go, and couldn't help but secretly curse Lin Dong for being narrow-minded.

Suddenly thinking of the fact that Tianshui and Yuen Long are adjacent to each other, Jiang Chengfeng remembered that Lu Shaoran said that because Jingsheng always aggressively established its presence in Yuen Long, there would be some friction between the brothers on both sides from time to time.

Each time the scale was small and no firearms were used, but Yishengtang was always the one that suffered the most, and several brothers were injured.

Jiang Chengfeng knew about this. It was obvious that the people in power in Yishengtang were afraid that there were too many masters in Jingsheng and that their brothers would act ruthlessly and implicate them, so they kept tolerating it.

He Jingsheng didn't go too far, at least he didn't break the rules.

The protection fees that should be paid were not less, but the people who collected the fees made a little louder noise every time, and breaking bones was the lightest punishment. Several people had their hands broken.

The reason was that the people from Yishengtang were not honest in the Hejingsheng place and took things that they should not have taken.

That amount of protection money is not enough to cover the medical expenses, and He Jingsheng will even use the excuse of affecting business to blackmail Yishengtang for more money.

Over time, Yishengtang simply gave up on Jingsheng's dozen or so venues.

This matter was mentioned by the leader Lu Hailin at the Hongmen headquarters.

However, the eight Hongmen halls not only have their own thoughts, but some even have life-and-death feuds.

Unless they and Jingsheng had dug up the roots of Yishengtang and had to take action due to their oath, they would not bother to care about minor fights.

There were at least dozens of small-scale fights between such societies every day in the Hongmen, and they were unable to control them all.

Jiang Chengfeng understood Lin Dong's thoughts and couldn't help but think of Lu Shaoran, the scumbag, and was afraid that he would be beaten half to death by Lu Hailin.

I would rather die than have a friend die. Jiang Chengfeng doesn't care about Lu Shaoran anymore. He can't even protect himself now and can't do anything about it.

Time is running out. Pete from the auction house, Miss Alia from the notary office, and the staff of the Red Cross are all waiting for him to hand in the check and sign it!

Jiang Chengfeng stopped beating around the bush and said directly:

"I dare not hide it from Master Lin. I can't come up with 30 million pounds right now. I wonder if Master Lin is willing to help."

"I promise to return the principal and interest within half a month."

"If you have any other requests, please feel free to ask, Master Lin. I will definitely not refuse if I can do it."

Since Lin Dong was willing to meet Jiang Chengfeng, he naturally planned to make a small profit. He had no intention of giving up this painting.

"Mr. Guo is straightforward, so I won't waste my time beating around the bush with you."

"I want the Stream and Landscape Painting and the newly renovated Heaven on Earth in Yuen Long."

As soon as Lin Dong finished speaking, Jiang Chengfeng's face immediately turned dark.

Holding back his anger, he said, "Young Master Lin, you are joking. The creek landscape painting is easy to give. I was planning to give it to Young Master Lin."

"Heaven on Earth, my investment is 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars. Is this the interest you calculated based on usury?"

"Young Master Jiang, please don't be angry. Wait for me to finish what I am saying. The basic interest rate of loan sharking is nine out of thirteen. The interest rate is more than this. Brother, I am very sincere."

"Thirty million pounds, if Young Master Jiang wants to raise it in half a month, it will be very difficult."

"If you agree to my terms, you can get this money without interest and the repayment period can be postponed to three months."

Seeing that Jiang Chengfeng looked much better, Lin Dong struck while the iron was hot and continued:

"I think Young Master Guo also understands that besides what I can do to help you now, the fastest way to raise the money is for you to ask Jiang Longtou for help, so that the money can be sent to you immediately, so as not to ruin your reputation."

"If Jiang Longtou wants to take out so much cash at once, I'm afraid he will have to use up the family's reserve funds. The Jiang family is prosperous, and I'm afraid that Young Master Jiang will not be able to pay back the money slowly."

"At this time, Mr. Jiang's only option left is mortgage loan."

"If someone does something bad during the loan period and makes Young Master Jiang unable to pay back the money, what will be the consequences? I don't need to say more!"

Seeing Jiang Chengfeng's livid face, Lin Dong added, "Don't worry, Young Master Jiang, my words are not a threat, and I won't do anything to take advantage of someone's misfortune. I'm just kindly reminding you."

"After all, the open and covert struggles between the various branches of the Jiang family are no secret in Hong Kong, right?"

Jiang Chengfeng did not think that fighting openly and secretly was a shame. This was a common model of breeding insects among wealthy families, where the capable ones would be promoted and the mediocre ones would be demoted.

Any wealthy family cannot escape this fate after decades or even hundreds of years of development.

The Lin family is just a newly emerging wealthy family, and all the shares are in the hands of Lin Dong alone. This kind of thing will not happen now, but what about decades later?

Jiang Chengfeng looked unhappy, and he was also thinking about the internal problems. They were more accurate and ruthless than outsiders, which was why Jiang Chengfeng asked Lin Dong for help.

"Mr. Lin, I only have 61% of the shares in Heaven on Earth."

Lin Dong nodded, "I know, that's why I said I'll treat you as a brother, and we'll each take what we need."

"If this money is used for lending, I'm sure Mr. Guo will understand that I will earn more in three months."
