In what can be described as a historic gold market crash, in addition to the rich children such as he Dingguo and entertainment stars such as Xie Yuan, there are even "professional players", such as Johnson Matthey bank, the first of the five major gold merchants in London.
Always thinking about taking advantage of the "unlucky" to win valuable resources, Gao Xian paid close attention to Johnson Matthey bank. He had no difficulty in the delivery of gold futures contract in Xiangjiang futures exchange, just in exchange for the "good fortune" needed for the convenience of such operation.
To be exact, although the gold market crash was extremely fierce, Johnson Matthey did not fall into an irreparable crisis simply because of investment mistakes. After the uncontrolled risks in its loan business were superimposed, it combined a fatal blow to crush Johnson Matthey.
To put it bluntly, in today's capitalist countries, not only the United States is plagued by economic stagflation, and the internal economic situation is in danger. Britain is also not optimistic. Specifically, some businessmen inevitably add water to their own asset quality evaluation when seeking loans from banks, and Johnson Matthey bank dares to lend to them.
In the intelligence before Gao Xian, there is an example. The owner of the Mermaid Theatre next to the city of London launched a reconstruction plan, and Johnson Matthey bank provided him with a loan of £ 21 million. According to the latest media disclosure, this person cheated on his assets.
Gao Xian frowned. The industry resources owned by Johnson Matthey are really attractive to him, but if Johnson Matthey is really rotten, it's worth considering. We can't be the Savior of injustice.
"Tell London to continue to collect further information." after Gao Xian ordered the assistant, the Secretary reported, and Zou wenhuai called.
Gao Xian estimated that at this time point, Zou wenhuai would also like to talk about Lei juekun's entry into the Xiangjiang film circle. Sure enough, the other party told him that Lei juekun was contacting the Xu brothers, especially Xu Guanjie was more and more likely to be recruited in the past.
"Sir Gao, didn't you say you would beat Lei juekun?" Zou wenhuai urged in his tone.
"Of course." Gao Xian smiled. "After the Spring Festival, it will be known."
After the call, Gao Xian thought for a moment and told his secretary, "prepare the car. I'll go out and walk around."
……
After receiving Gao Xian, Zhou Chengchang asked for instructions and said, "boss, where are you going?"
Gao Xian flipped through the newspaper and casually replied, "go to Guo's house. I've made an appointment with Guo Desheng."
Even during the Spring Festival, Xiangjiang's many news stories were full of gossip, which attracted Gao Xian's attention, which made him feel very interesting. That was the rich family resentment broke out in the Zhang family because of the competition for family property.
Gao Xian can be seen as serious news. Naturally, the Zhang family is not simple. It is the Zhang Zhushan family that has become the major shareholder of Defeng, one of the four British funded foreign firms in Xiangjiang without showing mountains and dew.
Because the second world oil crisis broke out last year, huidefeng, which was trapped by a serious decline in business performance and even wanted to sell to Jardine, turned around and its performance improved day by day. The contradiction between huidefeng Daban maden and the Zhang family also eased down and began to make money again. Huidefeng is only one of the many investments of the Zhang family, This shows the strength of the Zhang family.
In fact, Zhang Zhushan died as early as the 1930s. The good situation of the Zhang family today is created by the relay of the second generation of four brothers of Zhangjia. First, in the 1950s, boss Zhang obtained the agency rights of some western medicine in the Far East, Amoy the first bucket of gold in the real sense, and then turn to the field industry to accumulate huge wealth step by step.
However, boss Zhang was suffering from cancer and died in 1959; Zhang's second son died a few years earlier than his brother because of an accident; The third Zhang is keen on social activities and likes singing and making friends. Obviously, he is not the material for managing family property, so Zhang Yuliang, the fourth Zhang, finally became the head of the Zhang family.
It has to be said that Zhang Yuliang was very suitable for this position and seized the good market in the early 1970s, which led to a sharp increase in the assets of the Zhang family.
It should be pointed out that there is also a contradiction hidden in the prosperity of the Zhang family, that is, the four rooms of the Zhang family live in the same ancestral room and eat in the same pot. They have no economic independence from each other. It can be said that they are tangled. After Mrs. Zhang Zhushan died the year before last, the link between the four rooms of the Zhang family no longer exists, so the Zhang family began to fall apart.
The trigger was that last year, Zhang Yuliang issued a notice requiring all members of the Zhang family, including his own fourth room, to move out of the ancestral house within the time limit on the grounds of property development. Those who cooperate with the move out will receive "installment compensation" of 1.5 million to 3 million per room, and each nephew of each room will receive a gift of 700000 to 800000. Accordingly, the Zhang family company will no longer bear the expenses of each member of the Zhang family in the future.
To put it bluntly, Zhang Yuliang, the leader of the Zhang family, wants to separate his family and completely put an end to the situation of big pot food in the feudal family.
From the perspective of ordinary people, the "compensation" given by Zhang Yuliang can be regarded as favorable conditions, but don't forget that compared with the huge assets of the Zhang family, this amount is nothing; Zhang Yuliang let his four rooms also follow the separation rules, which seems fair, but he is the leader of the Zhang family. When he was caught, he actually separated most of the assets of the Zhang family.
Although they understood the essence of this separation, most of the members of the Zhang family did not dare to offend the strong Zhang Yuliang. They were afraid that even their promised conditions would be cancelled after confrontation with the leader, so they succumbed and moved out of the ancestral house of the Zhang family.
The exception was Cui Xiuying, Zhang Yuliang's second sister-in-law. The old lady thought Zhang Yuliang was unfair, so she called her cousin and classmates to accompany her and refused to move away in protest.
Cui Xiuying is so hard-working and naturally has capital. She has a lawyer's son-in-law named Luo Decheng. She is the son of Luo Wenjin, and the Luo Wenjin family can be called a lawyer family. Her fame and status in the history of Xiangjiang colony need not be described too much.
Zhang Yuliang was really overbearing. He lived behind the scenes and commanded his men. He cut off the water, gas and telephone lines of the ancestral house of the Zhang family. He even smashed the doors and windows of the second sister-in-law Cui Xiuying's room and sent guards to guard it. He was only allowed out and not allowed in.
I believe many people are not unfamiliar with this picture of "forced demolition", but it is quite popular in the territory of a powerful family like the Zhang family. Xiangjiang media is everywhere. How can they miss this opportunity and report it all the time.
The three old ladies certainly couldn't hold on for too long. Finally, they had no choice but to withdraw from the ancestral house of the Zhang family. Cui Xiuying changed to seek judicial channels to solve the dispute. A protracted battle for family assets in front of the public is inevitable.
From the perspective of public opinion, Zhang Yuliang is the only male left in his generation, and the third Zhang died last year. Therefore, this kind of unkind behavior towards his widowed sister-in-law seems very unkind.
Gao Xian closed the newspaper and thought to himself that Zhang Yuliang, a shrewd businessman who is usually very low-key, doesn't care about external wind comments at all, and even doesn't stay in Zhang's old house. He should have moved his mind to withdraw from Xiangjiang. Where will the huge assets calculated in billions go?
It is not hard to imagine that Gao Yi, who specializes in capital operation, likes Zhang Yuliang's action of transferring assets by billionaires. After all, when resources flow, there will be business opportunities.
……
When the car drove to the door of Guo's house, Guo Bingxiang, the eldest son of the Guo family, welcomed him out. "Sir Gao, welcome to the house. I'll pay you a new year."
"Good luck in the Spring Festival. Everything goes well." Gao Xian responded with a smile. Zhou Chengchang was responsible for moving gifts including flower glue, scallops, mushrooms and so on into Guo's house.
Unexpectedly, the words of reciprocity and blessing seemed to remind Guo Bingxiang of something, which made the eldest childe Guo sigh sadly, "all the best, alas..."
Gao Xian immediately understood that Guo Bingxiang was still trapped by love. He had his favorite object. However, Guo Desheng, the head of the family, was an ideal candidate for Guo's parents' daughter-in-law. He not only came from a famous business family, but also served as a middle-level in the lending business department of Huifeng bank. Once the two sides successfully married, they not only matched each other, but also supported each other.
The family members in this rich family are short, and Gao Xian is naturally difficult to join. He patted Guo Bingxiang on the shoulder and comforted him: "this time, in addition to paying New Year's greetings to Mr. Guo, I also want to talk about a joint acquisition plan. If you can seize the opportunity and make a great performance, you may have some say in personal affairs."
Guo Bingxiang was inspired and hurriedly asked, "what acquisition plan?"
Gao Xian smiled. "It depends on Mr. Guo's meaning. Are you willing to join hands to buy it."
……
Because of some light, Guo Desheng has always enjoyed the courtesy of his elders in front of Sir Gao. In the process of communication between the two families, he has a lot more friendship than driven by commercial interests.
After we exchanged greetings at the door of the living room, we went directly into the study, which shows the degree of trust between us.
Gao Xian went straight to the theme and said, "I have a plan to buy Kowloon bus. I don't know whether our two families can win it together?"
Seeing this plan, Guo Bingxiang, who followed up the study, was surprised. After taking a look at his father Guo Desheng, he swallowed what had come to his mouth.
Guo Desheng, with a slightly delicate face, asked slowly, "Kowloon bus can work. Sir Gao worked hard during the Spring Festival. What value does Sir Gao think of it?"
Gao Xian has been observing his words and expressions. After noticing the change of Guo Desheng's expression, he knows clearly that Guo Desheng has also moved his mind to the Kowloon bus, but he still lacks strength and is unable to take offensive action for the time being.
"I'm not interested in the transport business of KMB, but its parking lot, garage, staff dormitory and other sites can develop property potential, which is another matter," Gao Xian replied naturally.
After listening to this answer, Guo Desheng did not show surprise. This is not surprising. In recent years, he has devoted himself to the real estate industry, and it is impossible not to have this vision.
"I'm afraid it's hard to deal with Sir Tang Zhaojian on the Kowloon bus." Guo Desheng mused: "A few years ago, the Transport Advisory Committee of the Hong Kong Government considered that the service level of Kowloon bus and China bus should be improved urgently to adapt to the rapid development of Xiangjiang. Therefore, it suggested that the Hong Kong government should introduce the United Overseas transport company to take over the two bus companies. Otherwise, the existing franchise will not be renewed after its expiration."
"But as a result, the general manager of the United Overseas transport company came to Xiangjiang to personally negotiate the acquisition and shareholding. Finally, it was firmly rejected by Kowloon bus and China bus."
Before Gao Xian could speak, Guo Bingxiang couldn't help but ask for war. He interrupted, "Deng Zhaojian is going to be 80 years old. People don't take muscles and bones as their ability. What's to worry about."
"Besides, sir Gao has more energy than Deng Zhaojian. He is also a justice of the peace and sir. Moreover, he won the second GBE of Xiangjiang Chinese on New Year's day this year, and his level is higher."
Guo Desheng glared at Guo Bingxiang. Why are you so depressed? Don't you know I'm testing the details of Gao Xian?
Suddenly, he replied slowly: "before, the preservation of Kowloon bus and China bus can only show that their value is in the eyes of British capital and has not reached the point of starting to rob; now, the land reserve of Kowloon bus is worth our forced acquisition."
"Since the failure of the British capital to take over the KMB and CMB, the Hong Kong government has formulated a profit control agreement for the two companies, limiting their returns to shareholders. Coupled with the two uncertain factors of the subway line and the prospect of Xiangjiang, the operation of KMB and CMB has become increasingly conservative. Their heyday has ended. It is right now Take advantage of his illness and take his life. "
"If more and more people realize the land reserve potential of Kowloon Motor Bus and China motor bus, and after the collapse of the gold market, the capital turns to the stock market, it will really become more difficult to win."
Listening to Gao Xian's eloquence, Guo Desheng secretly understood that Gao Xian was so well prepared that he would have a high chance of winning. If he still wanted to eat alone, he would get nothing. Gao Xian had many choices.
"Sir Gao can win even the Xiangjiang land company, and the Kowloon bus is naturally in the bag. I'm eager to get it." Guo Desheng said tentatively, "but I still have some questions. Can Sir Gao answer?"
"The cooperation between the two countries should be honest with each other." Gao Xian waved, "uncle, please talk!"
Guo Desheng looked at Gao Xian and asked in a deep voice, "the strength of Gao's consortium is recognized as the first Chinese capital in Xiangjiang. It can win the Kowloon bus by itself. Why should we unite with Guo?"
Gao Xian smiled shyly. "You must also know that among the prey I have forcibly acquired over the years, there is no company founded by Chinese, but there are not a few people who have offended. Now I don't want to make an exception because of the acquisition of Kowloon bus."
Guo Desheng thought about it. Gao Xian's record is really like this. Even the forcibly acquired milk company is also a British company. Only after Zhou Xinian entered the board of directors of the milk company, he gradually gained control.
Guo Desheng, who accepted this explanation, nodded and continued to ask, "Sir Gao also analyzed China bus just now. Why did Sir Gao finally choose Kowloon bus as the acquisition target?"
Gao Xian replied without hesitation: "it is true that the land reserve potential of China bus on Hong Kong Island is more attractive, but I estimate that the resistance encountered will be correspondingly more tenacious. Things are easy first and then difficult, and Kowloon bus has become a priority."
"In addition, I would like to knock on Lei juekun, the major shareholder and general manager of Kowloon bus. Recently, he has engaged in wind and rain in the film industry, which is a bit bad."
"Easy before difficult..." Guo Desheng tasted it carefully. He suddenly realized that if Gao Xian also used this way of forming gangs to hunt the Chinese bus, others can't say that he was greedy to kill each other in the Chinese funded camp.
Seeing that his father was still considering, Guo Bingxiang couldn't help it any more. He volunteered and said, "Dad, sir Gao has made things so clear. We are all our own people. There's nothing to hesitate about. I'm willing to take charge of it."
Guo Desheng nodded, "then follow Sir Gao and learn your skills."
Guo Bingxiang was overjoyed at the speech. "I understand. I will humbly ask Sir Gao for advice."
Gao Xian laughed loudly and said meaningfully, "Bingxiang, you are the protagonist of this acquisition. Gao Yi and I will do our best to help you!"
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

I've made an appointment with Guo Desheng."Even during the Spring Festival, Xiangjiang's many news stories were full of gossip, which attracted Gao Xian's attention, which made him feel very interesting. That was the rich family resentment broke out in the Zhang family because of the competition for family property.Gao Xian can be seen as serious news. Naturally, the Zhang family is not simple. It is the Zhang Zhushan family that has become the major shareholder of Defeng, one of the four British funded foreign firms in Xiangjiang without showing mountains and dew.Because the second world oil crisis broke out last year, huidefeng, which was trapped by a serious decline in business performance and even wanted to sell to Jardine, turned around and its performance improved day by day. The contradiction between huidefeng Daban maden and the Zhang family also eased down and began to make money again. Huidefeng is only one of the many investments of the Zhang family, This shows the strength of the Zhang family.In fact, Zhang Zhushan died as early as the 1930s. The good situation of the Zhang family today is created by the relay of the second generation of four brothers of Zhangjia. First, in the 1950s, boss Zhang obtained the agency rights of some western medicine in the Far East, Amoy the first bucket of gold in the real sense, and then turn to the field industry to accumulate huge wealth step by step.However, boss Zhang was suffering from cancer and died in 1959; Zhang's second son died a few years earlier than his brother because of an accident; The third Zhang is keen on social activities and likes singing and making friends. Obviously, he is not the material for managing family property, so Zhang Yuliang, the fourth Zhang, finally became the head of the Zhang family.It has to be said that Zhang Yuliang was very suitable for this position and seized the good market in the early 1970s, which led to a sharp increase in the assets of the Zhang family.It should be pointed out that there is also a contradiction hidden in the prosperity of the Zhang family, that is, the four rooms of the Zhang family live in the same ancestral room and eat in the same pot. They have no economic independence from each other. It can be said that they are tangled. After Mrs. Zhang Zhushan died the year before last, the link between the four rooms of the Zhang family no longer exists, so the Zhang family began to fall apart.The trigger was that last year, Zhang Yuliang issued a notice requiring all members of the Zhang family, including his own fourth room, to move out of the ancestral house within the time limit on the grounds of property development. Those who cooperate with the move out will receive "installment compensation" of 1.5 million to 3 million per room, and each nephew of each room will receive a gift of 700000 to 800000. Accordingly, the Zhang family company will no longer bear the expenses of each member of the Zhang family in the future.To put it bluntly, Zhang Yuliang, the leader of the Zhang family, wants to separate his family and completely put an end to the situation of big pot food in the feudal family.From the perspective of ordinary people, the "compensation" given by Zhang Yuliang can be regarded as favorable conditions, but don't forget that compared with the huge assets of the Zhang family, this amount is nothing; Zhang Yuliang let his four rooms also follow the separation rules, which seems fair, but he is the leader of the Zhang family. When he was caught, he actually separated most of the assets of the Zhang family.Although they understood the essence of this separation, most of the members of the Zhang family did not dare to offend the strong Zhang Yuliang. They were afraid that even their promised conditions would be cancelled after confrontation with the leader, so they succumbed and moved out of the ancestral house of the Zhang family.The exception was Cui Xiuying, Zhang Yuliang's second sister-in-law. The old lady thought Zhang Yuliang was unfair, so she called her cousin and classmates to accompany her and refused to move away in protest.Cui Xiuying is so hard-working and naturally has capital. She has a lawyer's son-in-law named Luo Decheng. She is the son of Luo Wenjin, and the Luo Wenjin family can be called a lawyer family. Her fame and status in the history of Xiangjiang colony need not be described too much.Zhang Yuliang was really overbearing. He lived behind the scenes and commanded his men. He cut off the water, gas and telephone lines of the ancestral house of the Zhang family. He even smashed the doors and windows of the second sister-in-law Cui Xiuying's room and sent guards to guard it. He was only allowed out and not allowed in.I believe many people are not unfamiliar with this picture of "forced demolition", but it is quite popular in the territory of a powerful family like the Zhang family. Xiangjiang media is everywhere. How can they miss this opportunity and report it all the time.The three old ladies certainly couldn't hold on for too long. Finally, they had no choice but to withdraw from the ancestral house of the Zhang family. Cui Xiuying changed to seek judicial channels to solve the dispute. A protracted battle for family assets in front of the public is inevitable.From the perspective of public opinion, Zhang Yuliang is the only male left in his generation, and the third Zhang died last year. Therefore, this kind of unkind behavior towards his widowed sister-in-law seems very unkind.Gao Xian closed the newspaper and thought to himself that Zhang Yuliang, a shrewd businessman who is usually very low-key, doesn't care about external wind comments at all, and even doesn't stay in Zhang's old house. He should have moved his mind to withdraw from Xiangjiang. Where will the huge assets calculated in billions go?It is not hard to imagine that Gao Yi, who specializes in capital operation, likes Zhang Yuliang's action of transferring assets by billionaires. After all, when resources flow, there will be business opportunities.When the car drove to the door of Guo's house, Guo Bingxiang, the eldest son of the Guo family, welcomed him out. "Sir Gao, welcome to the house. I'll pay you a new year.""Good luck in the Spring Festival. Everything goes well." Gao Xian responded with a smile. Zhou Chengchang was responsible for moving gifts including flower glue, scallops, mushrooms and so on into Guo's house.Unexpectedly, the words of reciprocity and blessing seemed to remind Guo Bingxiang of something, which made the eldest childe Guo sigh sadly, "all the best, alas..."Gao Xian immediately understood that Guo Bingxiang was still trapped by love. He had his favorite object. However, Guo Desheng, the head of the family, was an ideal candidate for Guo's parents' daughter-in-law. He not only came from a famous business family, but also served as a middle-level in the lending business department of Huifeng bank. Once the two sides successfully married, they not only matched each other, but also supported each other.The family members in this rich family are short, and Gao Xian is naturally difficult to join. He patted Guo Bingxiang on the shoulder and comforted him: "this time, in addition to paying New Year's greetings to Mr. Guo, I also want to talk about a joint acquisition plan. If you can seize the opportunity and make a great performance, you may have some say in personal affairs."Guo Bingxiang was inspired and hurriedly asked, "what acquisition plan?"Gao Xian smiled. "It depends on Mr. Guo's meaning. Are you willing to join hands to buy it."Because of some light, Guo Desheng has always enjoyed the courtesy of his elders in front of Sir Gao. In the process of communication between the two families, he has a lot more friendship than driven by commercial interests.After we exchanged greetings at the door of the living room, we went directly into the study, which shows the degree of trust between us.Gao Xian went straight to the theme and said, "I have a plan to buy Kowloon bus. I don't know whether our two families can win it together?"Seeing this plan, Guo Bingxiang, who followed up the study, was surprised. After taking a look at his father Guo Desheng, he swallowed what had come to his mouth.Guo Desheng, with a slightly delicate face, asked slowly, "Kowloon bus can work. Sir Gao worked hard during the Spring Festival. What value does Sir Gao think of it?"Gao Xian has been observing his words and expressions. After noticing the change of Guo Desheng's expression, he knows clearly that Guo Desheng has also moved his mind to the Kowloon bus, but he still lacks strength and is unable to take offensive action for the time being."I'm not interested in the transport business of KMB, but its parking lot, garage, staff dormitory and other sites can develop property potential, which is another matter," Gao Xian replied naturally.After listening to this answer, Guo Desheng did not show surprise. This is not surprising. In recent years, he has devoted himself to the real estate industry, and it is impossible not to have this vision."I'm afraid it's hard to deal with Sir Tang Zhaojian on the Kowloon bus." Guo Desheng mused: "A few years ago, the Transport Advisory Committee of the Hong Kong Government considered that the service level of Kowloon bus and China bus should be improved urgently to adapt to the rapid development of Xiangjiang. Therefore, it suggested that the Hong Kong government should introduce the United Overseas transport company to take over the two bus companies. Otherwise, the existing franchise will not be renewed after its expiration.""But as a result, the general manager of the United Overseas transport company came to Xiangjiang to personally negotiate the acquisition and shareholding. Finally, it was firmly rejected by Kowloon bus and China bus."Before Gao Xian could speak, Guo Bingxiang couldn't help but ask for war. He interrupted, "Deng Zhaojian is going to be 80 years old. People don't take muscles and bones as their ability. What's to worry about.""Besides, sir Gao has more energy than Deng Zhaojian. He is also a justice of the peace and sir. Moreover, he won the second GBE of Xiangjiang Chinese on New Year's day this year, and his level is higher."Guo Desheng glared at Guo Bingxiang. Why are you so depressed? Don't you know I'm testing the details of Gao Xian?Suddenly, he replied slowly: "before, the preservation of Kowloon bus and China bus can only show that their value is in the eyes of British capital and has not reached the point of starting to rob; now, the land reserve of Kowloon bus is worth our forced acquisition.""Since the failure of the British capital to take over the KMB and CMB, the Hong Kong government has formulated a profit control agreement for the two companies, limiting their returns to shareholders. Coupled with the two uncertain factors of the subway line and the prospect of Xiangjiang, the operation of KMB and CMB has become increasingly conservative. Their heyday has ended. It is right now Take advantage of his illness and take his life. ""If more and more people realize the land reserve potential of Kowloon Motor Bus and China motor bus, and after the collapse of the gold market, the capital turns to the stock market, it will really become more difficult to win."Listening to Gao Xian's eloquence, Guo Desheng secretly understood that Gao Xian was so well prepared that he would have a high chance of winning. If he still wanted to eat alone, he would get nothing. Gao Xian had many choices."Sir Gao can win even the Xiangjiang land company, and the Kowloon bus is naturally in the bag. I'm eager to get it." Guo Desheng said tentatively, "but I still have some questions. Can Sir Gao answer?""The cooperation between the two countries should be honest with each other." Gao Xian waved, "uncle, please talk!"Guo Desheng looked at Gao Xian and asked in a deep voice, "the strength of Gao's consortium is recognized as the first Chinese capital in Xiangjiang. It can win the Kowloon bus by itself. Why should we unite with Guo?"Gao Xian smiled shyly. "You must also know that among the prey I have forcibly acquired over the years, there is no company founded by Chinese, but there are not a few people who have offended. Now I don't want to make an exception because of the acquisition of Kowloon bus."Guo Desheng thought about it. Gao Xian's record is really like this. Even the forcibly acquired milk company is also a British company. Only after Zhou Xinian entered the board of directors of the milk company, he gradually gained control.Guo Desheng, who accepted this explanation, nodded and continued to ask, "Sir Gao also analyzed China bus just now. Why did Sir Gao finally choose Kowloon bus as the acquisition target?"Gao Xian replied without hesitation: "it is true that the land reserve potential of China bus on Hong Kong Island is more attractive, but I estimate that the resistance encountered will be correspondingly more tenacious. Things are easy first and then difficult, and Kowloon bus has become a priority.""In addition, I would like to knock on Lei juekun, the major shareholder and general manager of Kowloon bus. Recently, he has engaged in wind and rain in the film industry, which is a bit bad.""Easy before difficult..." Guo Desheng tasted it carefully. He suddenly realized that if Gao Xian also used this way of forming gangs to hunt the Chinese bus, others can't say that he was greedy to kill each other in the Chinese funded camp.Seeing that his father was still considering, Guo Bingxiang couldn't help it any more. He volunteered and said, "Dad, sir Gao has made things so clear. We are all our own people. There's nothing to hesitate about. I'm willing to take charge of it."Guo Desheng nodded, "then follow Sir Gao and learn your skills."Guo Bingxiang was overjoyed at the speech. "I understand. I will humbly ask Sir Gao for advice."Gao Xian laughed loudly and said meaningfully, "Bingxiang, you are the protagonist of this acquisition. Gao Yi and I will do our best to help you!"
