"How long have you been in the park?"

He Hong sat in front of me, smoking a cigarette and looking around the villa courtyard.

"More than three years..." I replied.

"It's been so long?" He smiled and slowly exhaled a puff of smoke. "I remember that my villa was built four years ago. At that time, my brother specially asked a Feng Shui master to come and see it. He said that this place gathers energy and stores wind. , is a rare Feng Shui treasure land.”

Speaking of this, he smiled: "My father is a gambler. When I was a child, he went out to play cards all day long. Whenever he lost money, he would beat my mother when he came home. When I was young, I was afraid when I saw him. Later, I grew up. When he got older, I was no longer so afraid of him, and even warned him that if he dared to touch my mother again, I would never be done with him."

I didn't know what He Hong was doing with me, so I just listened quietly.

"However, he didn't seem to care about my warning at all. One year during the Chinese New Year, he even beat my mother in front of me. What do you think I did after that?" He Hong asked.

I pondered for a moment and said: "I can't guess..."

He smiled softly: "I chopped him three times with a kitchen knife..."

I was slightly stunned and didn't express any opinion.

"I thought I was helping my mother vent her anger by doing this, but who knows, not only was my mother not grateful but she also scolded me and said I was unfilial. From that day on, I never went home again. A few years later, my mother She was diagnosed with breast cancer...it was still in the late stage. I originally wanted to go back and see her, but that year I helped a boss collect a debt, and I struck too hard and killed the debtor, so I had to hide."

"I hid for ten years... During these ten years, my father was forced to commit suicide by jumping into a river because he couldn't repay the high gambling debts he owed."

He paused and said: "In our hometown, filial piety is very important, but I didn't fulfill it at all. My brother personally organized the funerals of my mother and my father. He was only eighteen years old when my mother died. I He was twenty-five years old when his father died..."

Speaking of this, He Hong stared at me: "My brother is my only relative in this world... I know he is not a good person, but no matter what, he is my He Hong's brother!"

"Mr. He, I'm sorry, I..."

"Don't say sorry to me. You haven't done anything to apologize to me." He interrupted me, "I know that woman Zhao Yuan. She followed my brother in society when she was a teenager. To be honest, I Although I don’t have much contact with her, I recognize her as my sister-in-law... Sometimes I even feel that Keliang is not worthy of her at all."

He sighed: "But what can I do? My brother is always my brother, and this fact cannot be changed. I know who he is better than anyone else."

"Mr. He, Zhao Yuan has helped me a lot. I was a little emotional at the time, so I got into trouble with Director He... I will apologize to him later."

"There's no need to apologize. What happened this time also made the kid reflect on himself. Such a grown-up man doesn't even have the courage to fucking shoot."

As he spoke, he took a puff of cigarette lightly: "If he had killed you with one shot, maybe things would have been easier to handle. Who knew this kid was so cowardly."

I was slightly startled. Although my face remained calm, I already had other thoughts in my mind.

He Hong said with a smile: "Although you are the person in charge of the park now, you must understand that without me, you would not be where you are today. I only like obedient dogs, and I hate feeding unfamiliar dogs! "

"From now on, you do your own thing. As for my brother, I will take care of it myself, so you don't need to interfere. Also, if you don't have the ability to take care of those people under you, I will find someone to take care of it for you."

I took a deep breath and nodded: "I understand..."

"Zhao Yuan has made such a big mistake this time, and all shareholders are very unhappy... I know that your performance has always been very good, so now I hope that you will use half a year to make up for the losses."

"it is good."

"Also, if you have nothing to do from now on, don't run out all the time. I don't care if you run a hotel in Mae Sot, but you'd better not be like Hu Laosan!"

"I know, Mr. He."

"Well, that's what I came here to tell you today. Go down and do your job."

When I came out of the villa, my eyes turned cold.

I know that He Hong said these words to me today not only to help He Keliang vent his anger, but also to beat me.

His subtext was that he knew exactly what I was doing, but he just didn't want to ask more about some things.

I am not surprised at all that he knows about the hotel business in Mae Sot.

After all, it's easy to find out with a little inquiry.

Just like Hu Laosan had his own properties in Lao Cai and Kuala Lumpur before, these things cannot be hidden at all.

When I got back to the office, I called Chang Jianlin over and asked him: "I can't get through to Agui on the phone. Go and call him over. I need to see him if I have something to do."

Hearing this, Chang Jianlin hesitated: "Brother Lei... I'm afraid Brother Gui won't be able to come."

I frowned slightly and looked at him with some confusion.

"He was captured this morning and thrown into the leech pond. He is still soaking in it now..."

As he spoke, he added: "It seems to be someone from Mr. He's faction..."

My eyes narrowed, and then I relaxed my brows and said, "Okay, I understand. You go down first."

"it is good."

When I was the only one left in the office, I stood up and came to the window. I looked through the glass in the direction of the leech pond.

Because the distance is too far, only a rough outline can be seen.

He Hong has made it clear that he is killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. It is impossible for me to let people go and get the ghost out at this time.

Although I now hold the power of the park and have become a veritable leader in this fertile land of sin, deep down in my heart, there is always an inexplicable sense of loss.

Inexplicably, the confusion and uneasiness I felt when I first stepped into this park seemed to creep into my heart silently again, making me feel unfamiliar with everything around me as never before.

Driven by this feeling, I decided to reinvest my attention into the specific affairs of the park, especially the marketing department.

This time, I focused all my energy on how to optimize our business direction and handed over this task to Jia Wenmin. I hope that in this way, I can stop thinking about it for the time being.

However, during this process, Deng Xiaohua, who had always been tepid and unknown, suddenly became extremely active.

Not only did she question my decision-making on various occasions, she even contradicted me in public at a plenary meeting. Her sharp questioning made me feel both surprised and helpless.

I know that there must be He Hong's shadow behind this.

Despite this, I did not choose to have a head-on conflict with Deng Xiaohua, because that would only make He Hong more unhappy and further strengthen his control and defense against me.

So, I adopted a softer strategy, assigning one-third of the power of the marketing department to Deng Xiaohua, letting her manage it by herself, and not intervening in any of her decisions.

I set monthly performance goals for her and didn't care about anything else.

In this way, time flew by like a flash, and three months passed by in a blink of an eye.

During these three months, I worked hard to maintain a delicate balance in all matters in the campus.

Although this balance may be broken at any time, at least during this time, I felt a sense of long-lost tranquility and order.
