It snows heavily in Kyoto in December, and although there is no snow in the magical capital in the south, it is uncomfortable to feel the wind blowing on your face when you walk outside.
Li Mo put on the down jacket that he had prepared and told other security personnel to find a hotel to stay first. He would notify them in time if anything happened.
I returned to Yu Linglong's house near the Bund in the middle of the night. I hadn't lived in it for a long time. However, although it is empty most of the time, Song Yuanning, the master's wife, comes here every month to ventilate the room, find someone to thoroughly clean the dust, and dry the quilts.
But as soon as I walked in, I felt something was wrong. It was freezing cold outside, but warm as spring inside. The floor heating in the home is on, and the ambient lights in the entrance corridor are also on.
Li Mo walked into the living room and saw a woman lying on the sofa under the dim light, covered with a blanket, sleeping soundly. The TV in the living room is still turned off, and the urban love brain web drama currently being broadcast on the Internet is projected on the screen.
"Yingying!"
Li Mo shouted softly. Liu Yingying opened her eyes and stretched slightly and smiled softly at Li Mo: "I was going to wait for you, but I fell asleep after watching TV for a while. My mother made you some midnight snacks, and I gave them to you." You can heat it up and eat it.”
"I can just heat it up myself. You should go back to your room and sleep well."
Yingying is more than six months pregnant, and her belly is much larger than that of expectant mothers with singletons in the same month.
She touched her belly and stood up, with a sweet smile on her face: "It's been cold recently, so maybe I haven't exercised enough and slept a little worse. Look at my face, have I gained a lot of weight?"
Li Mo reached out and pinched the left side of her face and nodded solemnly: "It's more flexible."
"Hate."
Liu Yingying lightly hit him on the chest: "Go and heat up some supper, take a shower and go to bed early."
His wife Song Yuanning prepared handmade leek and egg dumplings for him and also cooked a small pot of millet porridge. Li Mo fried the dumplings until both sides were golden.
"I'm hungry too."
Liu Yingying walked to the kitchen and smelled it, saliva oozing from her mouth.
"Master Wife has cooked a lot, let's eat together later."
"I'm going to get some more balsamic vinegar for dipping."
"No problem. You go to the living room and sit for a while. You'll be fine soon."
The two of them chatted while eating.
"Why are you in such a hurry to come back at night?"
"I took the best Buddhist treasure over there to Kyoto and asked the people there to trip me up, so it's best to leave before they react."
"Is it the tin stick that caused a lot of commotion on the Internet two days ago?"
"That one is just one of them. Later, a Tang gilt-bronze pagoda was discovered that was used to enshrine the finger bone relics of Sakyamuni Buddha. Today at noon, an eight-layered treasure letter used to store the relics was found in the underground palace. Three pieces were found in it. The jade shadow bone and the real finger bone relic are the only relics of Sakyamuni Buddha that still exist in the world."
"Is it the Buddha's finger bone relic mentioned in the TV movie?"
Liu Yingying's face showed a look of shock.
"The Buddha in the TV series is an artistic image, and the meaning is the same."
"No wonder you left in a hurry. How many days will you stay in the capital?"
"In four days, there is a press conference in Kyoto to attend."
"Well, I know about that. I heard from dad that it was very large. A few days ago, Mr. Niu asked me if I wanted to join his Hundred Billion Alliance. His business is getting bigger and bigger now, and he has quite a lot of power in his hands. big."
Li Mo gave her a golden dumpling and said with a smile: "What about the Hundred Billion Alliance? They are all bragging about Hu Nongren. The combined wealth of all of them can barely reach a scale of 100 billion. It is estimated that the final investment will be If you can have a capital of 5 billion, that would be great. Don’t look at all of them who are bullish, most of them are reflected in the stock market.”
"Speaking of this investment, the overall funds are huge and there will be no returns within three or four years. So they joined a group to share the risks. In fact, this is a gathering of human resources." Li Mo took a sip of millet porridge and continued, "This time I will invest about 30 billion in funds, involving five-star hotels, commercial complexes, high-end office buildings and other projects. Ten billion of them will be invested in your name, and you happen to have an investment in your name. Company, when the time comes, you will contact lawyer Zhu Mingcheng and let him take care of it for a few days."
Liu Yingying looked up at him, and then whispered: "As long as the children don't do anything in the future, the money I have now is enough for them to spend several lifetimes."
"Wouldn't what I own now have to be given to my children in the end? Just listen to my arrangements, and some of the equity you hold can be transferred out one after another. After all, it is international trade, and there are still great risks. You can tell San Fatty and the others what I said when you have time, and we don’t need to worry about how they choose."
Liu Yingying nodded and said: "Actually, I don't understand business either. Since you said so, I will let Lawyer Zhu handle it."
"Okay, let's eat some millet porridge and then go back to the room to rest later."
When Li Mo woke up, it was already around eight o'clock the next day, and he vaguely heard voices outside. After he got up and washed himself, he walked to the living room. Yanagawa Qing and Song Yuanning were both there, and the breakfast on the dining table was still hot.
"Master, Master Wife."
"Come over for breakfast."
Liu Yingying patted the chair next to her.
"Master, you have no class today?"
"You are so busy. Today is Saturday. You have a day off." Yanagawa Kei pointed at the breakfast on the table, "I bought it for you specially. They are all the things you liked to eat before."
"Xiao Mo, eat quickly." Song Yuanning handed him a pair of clean kuaizi, and then pushed the fried dumplings in front of Comrade Lao Liu to Li Mo, "If you start late, your master will eat them."
"I only ate three of the big portion." Comrade Lao Liu complained a little, but when his wife glared at him, he immediately smiled and said, "Yes, everything you said is right."
Li Mo smiled and said immediately: "Master, have you seen the plan for rebuilding the Jiuzhou Ding Sacrifice Temple?"
"I have seen it. The scale is very grand. Based on the unearthed Xia Dynasty ruins and various unearthed cultural relics, it almost simulates the life scenes of the ancestors of the Xia and Shang Dynasties. It can be imagined that when a modern person suddenly What kind of reaction would you have after walking into that kind of life scene? It’s more like a country within a country, which is shocking.”
"Lao Liu, is he really as amazing as you say?"
"What I have seen is only the first draft. I estimate that there will be a final draft when a press conference is held in a few days. Xiao Mo, I don't know what is going on in your head to think of such a blueprint."
"Maybe I'm too busy and just thinking about it when I have nothing to do."
"You, you, we will go to Kyoto together in a few days. But your master is afraid of the cold, so he will stay in Kyoto to attend the press conference." Yanagawa Kei suddenly remembered something and asked, "I heard that Fa The person in charge of the Chinese Embassy wants to communicate with you. Is there anything he wants to talk about?"
"It's about the return of the two gilded chimes that were lost in the Old Summer Palace. If they can be returned a year ago, they may appear at this year's Spring Festival Gala and play the 'Zhonghe Shao Music' again. Director Zhang De'an has made an appointment with me a long time ago. In all likelihood, it’s because of this. When I return to Kyoto, I’ll meet him and have a chat.”
"You have so many things to do. You are busy all year round. You won't be running around again after the New Year, right?"
"I won't go out for a run in the first half of the year, but I will probably go to Europe in the second half of the year."
"Is there anything important?"
Yanagawa Kei looked at him and asked curiously.
