After Lu Tao witnessed Li Jifeng jumping to his death, he returned to Guan Lei's ward and saw Guan Lei drinking eight-treasure porridge. He smiled and sat on the bed beside him: "It seems that you are recovering well!"
"How can a person wander around the world without getting stabbed! This is not the first time we have fought. It's just a broken leg. It doesn't matter."
Guan Lei didn't care about the injury on his leg, but asked Lu Tao: "Brother, you asked me to help you find someone last night. What did you do?"
Lu Tao found an excuse to send the nurse out of the house and said to Guan Lei: "I wanted to deal with Li Jifeng last night, but he died early this morning."
Guan Lei was stunned when he heard this: "Brother, did you kill him?"
"I didn't kill him, he committed suicide!"
Lu Tao opened the window of the single ward and stood by the window and lit a cigarette: "Last night when I had a conflict with Li Jifeng, I saved a person who was being forced to pay for debt. Therefore, Li Jifeng was arrested and it was probably related to this case." It is related to the kidnapping case. It stands to reason that Li Jifeng’s crime would not lead to death, so his death must be involved in other things.”
Guan Lei disagreed with this: "No matter how he died, in short, this bastard is dead, so we can worry less!"
"Yes, Li Jifeng's death has indeed reduced a lot of troubles. It's just that I couldn't avenge you personally, so I don't feel very happy."
Lu Tao did not dwell too much on Li Jifeng's death, and changed the subject and said: "This time through Li Jifeng's incident, I met Zhao Fengnian, a battlefield owner in Dongling, and I am going to organize the funds in our hands and invest them in the battlefield Inside. Part of this money was earned from our previous gambling games, and you also have a share, so I want to hear your opinion."
"Brother, you are so polite! Didn't I say that my money is your money, and I don't have any objection to what you want to do with me."
After Guan Lei said this, he immediately added: "But I really have other ideas about investing in the battlefield! In the Soviet area, Li Jifeng was the only one in Landao, but now he is gone. No one has picked up the cake yet! Since there is a ready-made mountain of gold in front of us, why do we have to dig out sand so hard?"
"If you want to open a gambling game, it's not enough to be cautious, you also need to have enough social connections! We want to spread the stall. First of all, the background alone is not enough! What's more, if you often walk by the river, how can you not get your shoes wet? Living by gambling is not the right way after all, and Li Jifeng is a living example."
Lu Tao paused for a moment: "The return from investing in the battlefield may be smaller, but at least we don't have to worry about it every day. We can also stand up straight and bask in the sun."
Guan Lei thought about Lu Tao's words and nodded with a smile: "I have no objection to this matter. I will do whatever you say."
Lu Tao put out his cigarette: "The agreement between me and Zhao Fengnian was to deal with Li Jifeng's problem, and then he would let us buy shares! According to my original plan, I just settled the matter with Li Jifeng and at the same time! But! Now that Li Jifeng is dead, Zhao Fengnian has no fear anymore. I don’t know if he will recognize the terms negotiated before!"
Guan Lei sniffed: "You didn't sign the contract?"
"This kind of contract cannot be signed. I originally thought that as long as Li Jifeng is here, Zhao Fengnian will have to tie me up because he is unsure! Before the matter comes to an end, he cannot give me the shares. If I am really included in the agreement, , it is written that the shares will be taken after Li Jifeng is disposed of, do you think the law will support such an illegal contract even if Zhao Fengnian betrays him?"
Lu Tao waved his hand: "You can recuperate here. I have to contact Zhao Fengnian to see his attitude."
Guan Lei nodded: "What if he doesn't admit it?"
Lu Tao smiled: "Li Jifeng is difficult to deal with, but if Zhao Fengnian offends me, he will definitely feel even more uncomfortable."
After Guan Lei waited for Lu Tao to leave, he took his mobile phone and played the level-breaking games in the mobile mall. These games were very deceptive. If you wanted to pass the levels, you had to use your phone bill to top up to buy equipment. During the past few days in the hospital, Guan Lei's The phone bill has already been charged to two or three hundred.
While he was playing the game, his phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that the caller was marked "Liu Dong", Guan Lei answered the phone curiously: "Hello, Dongzi?"
A cheerful voice came from the opposite side: "Haha, what are you doing, brother-in-law?"
"Don't fucking scream! How many years have your sister and I been together?"
Guan Lei grinned: "Why did you remember to call me? Is there something wrong?"
Liu Dong smiled and replied: "Ah, something really happened. I didn't owe you 10,000 yuan before. I plan to pay this money back to you! Where are you?"
When Guan Lei heard that Liu Dong wanted to pay back the money, he refused without thinking: "Fuck, what a bullshit, how long has it been, forget it!"
The relationship between the two started two years ago.
At that time, Guan Lei's chess and card room had just moved to Xueliao Street. As soon as he went back and forth, he fell in love with a little girl who often came to play cards. And that girl was Liu Dong's sister Liu Qing.
At that time, Guan Lei and Liu Qing were getting along very well. Liu Dong went to a gambling game to play for money because he was drunk. In a hurry, he broke the head of a gangster named Heping. In the end, Guan Lei went around asking for help and paid for it in advance. Ten thousand yuan in compensation will settle the matter.
Last autumn, Guan Lei slept with a girl sitting on the stage because he was out socializing. Liu Qing found out about this, and the two of them fell out. Due to his debt to Liu Qing, the money was lost.
Liu Dong heard Guan Lei's answer on the phone and said: "Brother Lei, when I took the money from you, I agreed that the money would be borrowed. Now that I have spare money, I must pay you back." Ah! My sister is getting married next month, and you know her temper. If I don’t pay back the money, she will always feel like there is a thorn in her heart. "
Guan Lei heard the news that Liu Yue was getting engaged, and then thought that Lu Tao would also need money to invest in the battlefield. He felt uncomfortable and replied: "Okay, if you insist on giving it, then just put it in my card, and I will pay it." I’ll send you the card number!”
Liu Dong replied with a smile: "I'll give you cash! Tonight, I am going to another place with my sister to prepare for the wedding. My sister asked me to stay there to find a job, and I don't know when I will come back. Now, let’s meet and say goodbye formally!”
Guan Lei didn't think much about it: "That's okay, I'm in the fourth hospital of the Medical University, in the orthopedics single ward!"
…
On the other side, Sun Qiang saw Liu Dong hanging up the phone and asked, "Have you asked? Where is he?"
Liu Dong asked back: "I asked, where is the money you promised me?"
Hearing this, Ma Hanhua took out 10,000 yuan from his pocket and handed it over: "I can give you this money, but you just called him brother-in-law. You won't set a trap for us, right?"
"Brother-in-law is so fucked up! When my sister was so good to him, he went out to break shoes, so I would be happy if you tortured him to death!"
Liu Dong cursed and took Ma Hanhua's money: "I'm in the Orthopedics Ward of the Fourth Hospital of the Medical University!"
