<h4>Chapter 144: This Guy, Does He Still Owe Us Money?</h4>
Seeing Lin Yi and Bi Songjiang leave, the yellow-haired guy and hispanion looked at each other.
“Mao Bro, what should we do about this? If the ce has been acquired, can we still get the profits in the future?”
“This isn’t something you should worry about. Go up and tell Dong Bro,” the yellow-haired guy said.
“I reckon this kid is just a rich second generation. He just looks awesome. Brother Dong will definitely be able to handle it.”
“Alright.”
After speaking about this, the two of them went upstairs together.
On the third floor was an office. One could hear the sound of Mahjong inside from afar.
“Doni, your mahjong skills are getting better and better.” The person who spoke was a bald man with a handlebar mustache. He chuckled and said, “I’ve only yed for over an hour and you’ve already won over 10,000 from me. I Can’t y Mahjong with you anymore in the future.”
The bald man’s name was Liu Qiang. He was the boss of another district in Zhong Hai and was quite famous.
Sitting opposite Liu Qiang was a man in his thirties. He was smoking a cigarette and had a buzz cut. There were two scars on his arm that looked particrly ferocious.
This man was the leader of the yellow-haired gang, Yao Doni.
“Brother Qiang, you have a big business, so do you still need this little bit of money?” Yao Doni said with a smile.
“Stop fooling around. That’s not the case anymore,” Liu Qiang said.
“Now, all of Moon Bay Beach is yours. Even the people from the administration are under your control. Your annual ie must be at least two million dors. Don’t make fun of me.”
“It’s just a small business.” Yao Doniughed and said, “I have to scratch a living out of it.”
“But I’ve heard that Moon Bay Beach seems to haveunched a public auction. You’ll get a new boss soon. Will there be any changes on your side?”
“There will definitely be changes. It depends on how the other party sits down and talks to me.” Yao Doniughed and said, “If the result is not satisfactory, then he can forget about doing business.”
“Brother Doni is still the best. I admire you.”
“Brother, don’t mess around. You have a certain personal rtionship with the famous Young Master Qin. This is not something I canpare to. When are you going to introduce him to me?”
“Sure, sure. We are all brothers. When Young Master Qin is free, I will prepare a table and we can have a drink with him.”
“Then it’s a deal. Let’s continue ying.”
At that moment, the blondie walked in and greeted them with a bow.
“Dong Bro, Qiang Bro.”
Yao Doni nodded. “What’s up? What’s the matter? Can’t you see I’m ying mahjong?”
“Dong Bro, someone called Lin Yi came in just now. He said that he had bought Moon Bay Beach and told us not to be involved in the beach business anymore. He also said that we should settle the ounts at Wangjiang Dock.”
Yao Doni was stunned. “Settle the ounts? What does the Wangjiang Dock have to do with him?”
“He said that the Wangjiang Dock is his property too.”
Yao Doni and Liu Qiang looked at each other in surprise.
Wangjiang Dock was much more valuable than Moon Bay Beach. Wasn’t this guy called Lin Yi a little too rich and overbearing?
“Other than that, what else did he say?” Yao Doni asked with a dark face.
“Nothing else. They just said that they wouldn’t let us involve ourselves in Moon Bay Beach anymore. They also said that they wouldn’t interfere with our business in the future. It seems like they want to draw a line between us.”
“This person is pretty awesome.” Yao Doni touched the mahjong piece in his hand and said coldly, “They say that new officials are always troublesome. This is my fault.”
“He is indeed quite pretentious. Just now, he drove a sports car here. After saying that, he left. He is quite arrogant.”
“Okay, I got it. You all can leave now.”
Yao Doni waved his hand and chased the blonde man out.
“Doni, the other party doesn’t seem to be giving you much face,” Liu Qiang said with a smile.
“It’s okay. It’s all within my expectations.” Yao Doni flicked the ash off his cigarette. “I’ll go and have a chat with him tomorrow. If he doesn’t give me a taste of the sweetness, no one will be able to do business here anymore!”
“Awesome, I admire your ruthlessness. I can’tpete anymore.”
...
After leaving Yao Doni’s territory, Lin Yi drove Bi Songjiang back.
“Apart from this Yao Doni, are there any other bad debts at Wangjiang Dock?”
“There are indeed cases of some debts forming, but they’re usually paid back after a period of time. They’re not really bad debts, and only Yao Doni owes us a significant amount.”
“Okay, I got it.”
Lin Yi nodded. After sending Bi Songjiang back, he looked at the time and realized that it was gettingte, so he went back to Jiuzhou Pavilion.
After resting for a night, he drove to the Penins Hotel the next day.
There were a lot of orders on his phone, but Lin Yi did not ept any of them.
He mainly wanted to see the Penins Hotel’s ounting problems.
Ring, Ring, Ring...
Lin Yi’s phone rang while he was driving. It was a call from BI Songjiang.
“Boss Lin, Yao Doni called me. He wants to talk to you about Moon Bay Beach.”
“Sure, just tell him to look for me at the Penins Hotel.”
“Got it, Boss Lin. Do you need me to send some people over?”
“Huh? What for?”
“This Yao Doni isn’t a nice guy. I’m afraid that something bad might happen, so I can protect you.” Bi Songjiang said
“It’s okay. The Penins Hotel is also my territory, so you don’t need to send anyone. If something really happens, the security here will be enough to handle it.” Lin Yi said.
“Lin, you bought the Penins Hotel?” Bi Songjiang asked in surprise.
“It was a long time ago. Don’t make a big deal out of it.”
“Uh... Boss Lin is awesome.”
“Stop sucking up to me. Just let theme over. I’ll handle this,” Lin Yi said.
Although this BI Songjiang was not as glib-tongued as Tianlong Wang, he was quite loyal.
“Okay, I’ll inform them right away.”
Not long after hanging up, Lin Yi arrived at the Penins Hotel and went straight to Tianlong Wang’s office.
“Boss Lin, you’re here.” Tianlong Wang said with a smile.
“I’ve settled the matter with the motorcycle. The repair cost was almost one million dors. In the end, it was his big brother who paid for it. He even said that he wanted to treat you to a meal to apologize.”
“There’s no need for the meal.” Lin Yi said. “I came here to ask about the ounts.”
“Boss Lin, when do you want to check the ounts? I’ll get someone to prepare it now.”
Lin Yi leaned on the sofa and rested his feet on the coffee table.
“Penins Hotel has been established for so long. Are there any bad debts that can’t be recovered?”
Tianlong’s expression changed. He hesitated for a few seconds and said, “There are indeed some bad debts. They add up to about three million dors.”
“That much?”
Three million dors was baby food for Lin Yi, butpared to the Wangjiang Dock, it was not a small amount.
“Director Lin, you might not know this, but bad debts exist in all industries, particrly in the catering and hospitality industries. Our Penins Hotel is involved in both.” Tianlong Wang said.
“Director Lin, I don’t want to brag, but with the scale of Penins Hotel, it’s not a lot to umte three million in bad debts after so many years.”
“Then why didn’t you tell me about this when I took over?”
“Director Lin, there’s no point talking about this,” Wang Tianlong said with a sad face.
“We’ve known each other for a long time, and you know my character. Think about it. If it were an ordinary person, would I allow them to owe me money? Those are people we can’t afford to offend, so I had no choice.”
“Alright, cut the crap. Go get the list for me.”
“Please wait a moment, Director Lin. I’ll go get it right away.”
Tianlong went to the file cab and took out two folders.
“Director Lin, the bad debts of the hotel are all listed here.”
Lin Yi nodded and flipped through the ounting book, his gaze fixed on a single person.
“This Qin Han guy still owes us money?”
