"elder brother!"
He said he didn't want to see his brother, but when he saw Hong Jipeng standing in the crowd to greet him, Hong Jibiao shouted excitedly and rushed over quickly.
"Brother, why, I have been in prison for several years and have gained weight." My brother spent 7 years in prison in Xiangjiang. He was very heartbroken when he saw Hong Jipeng today. He only had this younger brother, and he was harmed by himself.
This time I must take him out of Xiangjiang and not let him stay in prison and suffer anymore.
"When I first entered prison, the prison bullies bullied me," Hong Jibiao said with a sullen face, "But I'm not someone to be bullied, so I just beat a few of them.
Although I stayed in a dark room for three days, my prestige in the prison was established. Now I am a leader in the prison. Not only do I eat well, I also work lightly, and I have gained weight. "
"It's good to get fatter. If you lose weight, I will blow up the prison." Patting Hong Jibiao on the shoulder, Hong Jipeng took him aside. The two brothers found an empty car and sat down to chat.
"Brother, this is a dead end for you. You'd better find a way to escape. If you can't escape, surrender. There is no death penalty in Xiangjiang. In the detention center, going to court, going to court, and on the way to escort, as long as there are brothers outside, you will be there. Countless opportunities to escape.”
Afraid that the sound would be too loud and affect morale, Hong Jibiao leaned close to his brother's ear and whispered.
"Why is this a dead end? I have hostages and explosives in hand now. If the police dare not agree to my conditions, they will not let you go." Hong Jipeng shook his head. He was extremely confident in himself, even if he was his own brother. not give a damn about.
"Brother, you don't understand." Seeing that Hong Jipeng didn't understand, his younger brother Hong Jibiao shook his head in pain and said, "You haven't understood the difficulty of this matter. What's important is not the hundreds of hostages but the Red Tunnel. .
I asked about one thing outside, or it may have been told to me intentionally by the police, that is, if the tunnel explodes, not only the tunnel but also the surrounding environment will be damaged.
The total losses may amount to one to two hundred billion.
Brother, tell me, is it more important to have a few hundred hostages or one or two hundred billion? I believe everyone knows which is more important, especially Xiangjiang, the head of the country, Shi Gui Lao, they will not take ordinary citizens to heart.
"One or two hundred billion, Abiao, you didn't deceive me, how could the loss be so huge?" His brother's words almost made Hong Jipeng jump up, with a look of disbelief on his face.
“I learned about the fraud in the Cross-Harbour Tunnel, and the public expenditure was only over 300 million, even though that was decades ago.
But just two years after its completion, the Western District Tunnel, which is significantly higher than the Cross-Central Tunnel, only cost more than 10 billion. If the Cross-Central Tunnel is blown up, it will cost one to two hundred billion.
This is too high. With so much money, just think about it and you will know that the Hong Kong government will definitely go crazy. In comparison, the hundreds of hostages in hand are really of little use.
Because the police force has to attack no matter what, they will not let the bomb be in their hands.
After thinking about it, Hong Jipeng picked up the phone sent by Lei Weidong and called. The first person he called was Yan Guorong.
Although Ma Jun said that Lei Weidong had people monitor the entire tunnel area, and any phone calls would be monitored, Hong Jipeng didn't care at all. It had reached this level, and he was still hiding something.
It's better to be above board. Anyway, his account is overseas, and no matter how powerful Lei Weidong is, he can't seal it.
"Mr. Yan, the police just sent me a reply saying that there will be no news about the repurchase until tomorrow at the earliest. Do you think they are stalling for time and have not thought about the repurchase?"
Hong Jipeng asked after answering Yan Guorong's call.
"Don't worry, this is a normal phenomenon. The government won't do things so fast. And it's night now. It's a bit difficult for the government ghosts to gather for a meeting. Just wait. Even if you don't get a reply tomorrow, you will definitely get a reply within 48 hours. .”
Although the stock market is not open, Yan Guorong has caught wind of the news, and many securities companies have already taken action to prepare for bargain hunting on Western Harbor Crossing's stock tomorrow.
In other words, my gamble was successful. Even if the Hong Kong government did not buy back the shares of Western Harbor Crossing Corporation, I could take advantage of the rare opportunity tomorrow to sell a large amount of shares, not only recouping my capital but also making a huge profit.
Yan Guorong, who was in a good mood, said, "As long as the stock soars tomorrow and I successfully get out of the trap, the 100 million I promised you will arrive on time. If the stock rises by more than 50%, I will send you an extra 100 million Hong Kong dollars." "
"Mr. Yan, please tell the truth. Even if the Hong Kong government agrees to repurchase the shares of Western Harbor Crossing Corporation, it will not be possible to complete the repurchase within 48 hours. At most, it will repurchase a part of it." Hong Jipeng continued to ask.
"Yes, it is unrealistic to complete the repurchase within 48 hours!" Ninety-nine of the one hundred steps have been taken, and Yan Guorong doesn't care that Hong Jipeng knows the truth. He is already riding a tiger and cannot turn back.
"Why, didn't you say last time that Xiangjiang has tens of billions of dollars in foreign exchange reserves and spend billions of dollars to buy back the shares of the Western Harbor Crossing Company? Why don't you say that it can't be done now?" Hong Jipeng sounded a little unhappy, angry that Yan Guorong had deceived him. Got him.
"Hong Kong has tens of billions of dollars in foreign exchange reserves, but it is not easy to get this money out. It requires meetings, a show of hands and other processes.
And even if the process is completed, it is not easy to acquire the company. Acquisition by major shareholders requires lengthy negotiations, and sometimes the process cannot be completed in a month.
As for the stocks on the market, it will not be so easy to get them back, otherwise every stock acquisition war would not last for days, weeks or even months. "
Yan Guorong was also a little afraid of Hong Jipeng's madness, fearing that he would be involved in a desperate situation, so he said, "I can give you another 100 million and call you the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, transfer the money as soon as possible. If there is no 200 million tomorrow and no 100 million arrives the day after tomorrow, you know what I will do." Hong Jipeng said with a gloomy face.
Although he was deceived by Yan Guorong, Hong Jipeng was satisfied with the 300 million in his account. All he needed to do now was to get more money. That way, even if he couldn't escape his anger, he would still have enough money to hire a lawyer to litigate him.
In Xiangjiang, as long as they have money, those big lawyers can turn black into white.
"Brother Hong, don't worry. The bigger the fuss here, the more the stock market will rise. I have kept my promise regarding money. Just pay attention and check it."
Yan Guorong laughed loudly.
"That's the best." Hong Jipeng replied, hung up the phone, then looked at his brother with a gloomy face, took out a note and handed it over.
"Remember the number above. The password is your birthday. If I can't get out, you can use the money inside to hire a lawyer to get you out of jail.
You and I are the only two people left in our Yan family. Although my eldest brother and I have made a fortune in the Golden Triangle over the years, my biggest regret is that I have no descendants. Our Yan family cannot cut off its roots. "
"Brother, aren't you leaving?" The Hong family brothers are all smart people. As long as Hong Jipeng has to arrange it, Hong Jibiao knows that his eldest brother wants him to go out.
If the eldest brother succeeds in escaping, he will spend a huge amount of money to ask a lawyer to commute his sentence or parole. If that doesn't work, he will blow up the prison to escape.
If you can't escape, then you have to save yourself, and the money is the key to whether you can save yourself.
"I can't leave!"
Hong Jipeng shook his head and said: "The detonator is on me, and the police can't let me leave. Even if I give the detonator to my brothers and let them cut it off, I can't run away.
First of all, the police didn't believe that I was separated from the detonator, just like you said that once the Red Cross Tunnel is bombed, Hong Kong will lose hundreds of billions. This is something that no one except Lei Weidong, a capitalist who made a fortune from disaster, can afford it.
In order not to take the blame, they will not trust anyone.
Secondly, my brothers all work for money, and they follow me because of money, and Lei Weidong has plenty of money.
You can think about it, after I leave and find that the detonator is on my brother, what will Lei Weidong do? "
"Buy with money?" Hong Jibiao asked.
"Yes!" Hong Jipeng nodded and said somewhat depressedly, "The biggest headache for the police when facing robbers is how to get them to put down their weapons, which takes a lot of time to convince.
Lei Weidong doesn't need to be persuaded at all, he can just tell my brother directly.
You are not the main culprit. As long as you surrender, you will be given five million plus a tainted witness.
What can my subordinates say? Even the most loyal ones will still be moved.
What's even more frightening is that Lei Weidong can set the price at will, if five million is not enough, then ten million.
What will my brother do, will he surrender? "
"Yes!" Hong Jibiao nodded in a positive tone.
Hong Jipeng: "..."
"Let's go. The longer you stay here, the more trouble you will get. And when you go out, take a hundred hostages and make some achievements. When you hire a lawyer, you can get twice the result with half the effort, making it easier to get out."
After a moment of silence, Hong Jipeng signaled that Hong Jibiao could leave.
"Brother, there is something I want to remind you." Seeing Hong Jipeng instructing his younger brother to select hostages, Hong Jibiao whispered, "When I came in, Li Ying said something in my ear, and I think it makes sense. .”
"What's the matter?" Hong Jipeng asked.
"That guy Yan Guorong may kill someone and silence him. After all, brother, you know his details. Although rich people are not afraid of this, the impact of the Red Cross Tunnel is too great. In order to keep himself innocent, Yan Guorong is likely to arrange one or two among your men. His people.
If I kill you at the last moment and then surrender, relying on the merits of protecting the tunnel in the end and finding a good lawyer, maybe it will take a few years or even a few months.
It is appropriate to make millions or even tens of millions in such a short period of time. "Hong Jibiao didn't know whether Li Ying wanted to sow discord or if such a thing really happened. For the safety of his eldest brother, he still told Hong Jipeng the matter.
"Don't worry, I've thought of this a long time ago. It's not easy for Yan Guorong to arrange people around me." Hong Jibiao's words shocked Hong Jipeng. If he thought about it carefully, it was really possible.
After all, if he is arrested, he is very likely to betray Yan Guorong in order to reduce his crime. Although it is impossible to escape the sanction of the law even if he betrays Yan Guorong, after all, the crime of hijacking the tunnel is too great, and the judge may sentence him to 100 years.
Even if Yan Guorong is betrayed, it would be good if his sentence can be reduced by fifty years.
100 years minus 50 years, there are still 50 years left, and I will be over eighty years old when I come out. Some gains outweigh the losses, but when that time comes, everything will be hard to say.
After all, he and Yan Guorong only have an employment relationship, and there is no burden at all in betraying him. If he is unlucky, he naturally hopes that others will be unlucky as well.
Yan Guorong also knew this very well, so when he really couldn't escape, there were many possibilities of sending someone to kill him, because it didn't cost much to bribe his men.
Yan Guorong can give himself 300 million, so spending 30 million to bribe a few of his subordinates is trivial.
We must think of something!
After Hong Jibiao left with 100 hostages, Hong Jipeng dialed Gong Muhong's phone number.
"Boss Gong, how are you? Have your people gone back?"
"I'm back now. Thank you, Boss Hong. You have helped me so much. I will definitely help if you need it." Gong Muhong was comforting his subordinates who had returned in his villa.
Let them rest at home and rush back to Riben tomorrow.
As a result, just after saying a few polite words, Hong Jipeng called.
"Boss Gong, if you say that, I won't be polite. I really have something to ask of you." Hong Jipeng climbed up the pole regardless of whether Gong Muhong's words were polite or sincere.
"Boss Hong, tell me!"
"I now control the Red Cross Tunnel, and the police have agreed to two of the three conditions I requested. The third one will be answered very quickly, with a reply within 48 hours at most.
What I need now is to find a way out.
Boss Gong, you have great powers and many friends. Arrange a fully fueled helicopter for me. Whether I can leave Xiangjiang or not depends entirely on you.
"It's okay to arrange a helicopter, but Boss Hong, I need time. It won't be until tomorrow afternoon or evening at the earliest." With Miyagi Hong's worth, it's not difficult to arrange a helicopter. It's rare to get rid of yourself. It requires Time ends.
"Just tomorrow night. I'll call you then and you can just send the plane over." After making an appointment, Hong Jipeng hung up the phone.
"President, the Red Cross Tunnel is a hot potato. We really have to get involved." Oda disagreed with Miyagi Hiroshi's promise to help Hong Jipeng.
Although Hong Jipeng helped the Gongmu family and rescued his brothers trapped in the police station, the Mongmu family also paid a lot, not only 50 million in cash, but also the explosives and weapons raised during this period were all given to Hong Jipeng.
If it weren't for the things provided by the Gongmu family, how could Hong Jipeng have taken over the Red Tunnel so easily.
Xiangjiang today is no better than before.
The rise of Lei Weidong has made it harder and harder to commit crimes in Hong Kong. There are fewer and fewer arms smuggling merchants. The price of the May 4th pistol is several times more expensive than the previous AK.
"We've already called, so it makes no sense not to help. After all, Hong Jipeng also helped us." Miyagi Hong shook his head and said with a smile,
"We lost a lot of brothers and money this time in Xiangjiang, and we need to find a place to make up for it. If we can help Hong Jipeng escape, I believe he will not be stingy with money and will give us all his wealth."
"President, you are still the best. Hong Jipeng must have made a lot of money by playing so big. When the time comes..." Knowing the president's plan, Xiaotian laughed.
"Puff..."
At this moment, two deep voices sounded in the yard... Two strong men in black suits fell limply to the ground...
