Two days later, Nan Yi sent Nan Wuwei to the car bound for Xiangkeng, returned to the bathroom, and put on a two-jin gold chain that cost twenty yuan a string in front of the mirror. He then put on a gold Rolex that cost fifty yuan a piece on his left hand, and put on an eight-liang gold bracelet that cost ten yuan next to his watch.
Except for the two thumbs, he wore gold rings on the other eight fingers, held a rosary in his hand, combed his hair back in front of the mirror, changed into a delicate dress and an old man's hair style, looked in the mirror, and it seemed that he had at least several million in assets. After that, Nan Yi took the evidence of tax evasion of Changye Company collected by Lin Guangwei and went directly to Changye Company to visit Ji Changlin.
With Nan Yi's attire and demeanor, he easily entered Ji Changlin's office and sat opposite Ji Changlin. Ignoring Ji Changlin's greetings, Nan Yi threw the evidence on the table and put his hands back to twirling the rosary in his hand.
"What's the meaning?"
Nan Yi's move left Ji Changlin confused.
“May Buddha have mercy on you, Mr. Ji, just read it yourself and we’ll talk after you’ve finished reading it.” After Nan Yi finished speaking, he closed his eyes slightly and recited a sutra that he himself couldn’t even name.
Ji Changlin looked at Nan Yi, then at the folder on the table, then looked at Nan Yi again. After hesitating for a while, he picked up the folder and opened it.
After more than two minutes, less than three minutes, Ji Changlin shouted loudly: "What do you mean?"
Nan Yi opened his eyes and looked at Ji Changlin's face with a compassionate look on his face. "Buddha has mercy on us. Buddha said that enemies should be resolved rather than created. Mr. Ji has taken advantage of us. Don't kill him. Just withdraw the lawsuit."
"You said to retreat, so we retreat. Who do you think you are? You think I, Ji Changlin, was brought up by being scared?" Ji Changlin shouted in a timid tone.
"Whether it's Xiamen University or Yangzhou University, I don't care who Mr. Ji is, or what you are capable of. Li Hai is my friend, well, we are not too close, but if he gets into trouble, it's enough for me to rush back from abroad."
Nan Yi pointed at Ji Changlin, then at himself, "I don't like your character, so I don't want to get to know you, let alone become friends. You don't know me now, and I don't want to introduce myself. I just want to remind Mr. Ji that although the tea will get cold when people leave, you should remember what position Li Hai's father held before he fell. You should remember that Changye Company has benefited from him, right?"
Nan Yi stood up and continued, "Buddha has mercy on me. Mr. Ji, please think carefully. I hope we won't meet again. It would be best if we can hear the news of the withdrawal of the lawsuit before this time tomorrow. Good, good, Mr. Ji has a connection with Buddha. Do more good deeds and strive to become a Buddha as soon as possible."
After saying that, Nan Yi twirled his rosary beads and left Changye Company in a daze.
In fact, Nan Yi’s drama is a bit superfluous. The evidence and the news of the “tax-sharing system” sandwiched between the evidence are enough.
There is a clause in the tax-sharing system that "after 1994, the central government's fiscal refunds will be based on local fiscal revenue in 1993." In simple terms, the more local governments paid to the central government in 1993, the more they would get back each year thereafter.
At this critical moment when the local authorities are trying every means to increase tax revenue, if Ji Changlin's tax evasion were to be exposed, he would easily be made an example of. Once he becomes an example, the punishment would be severe. Nan Yi was sure that Ji Changlin would not dare to take the risk.
Nan Yi added more scenes, firstly to add insurance, and secondly to satisfy his acting urge.
After returning home, Nan Yi took off all the gold and washed it in the sink, intending to put it away and use it next time when needed. Fortunately, the gold chain was well made and did not float.
Nan Yi had just finished washing and picked up the gold when Lin Guangwei came quietly and asked, "Have you been to Changye Company?"
"Just got back."
"I just met with a client, and he mentioned that he was planning to invest in a coal mine in the Vinegar Province. I have some spare cash, do you think I can invest?"
Nan Yi wiped the gold with a towel, then wiped his hands, and then said slowly: "In 1983, when the country just opened up private coal mining, I did an assessment and concluded that it was almost unprofitable to be conscientious. If you want to make money, forget about conscience, and your heart must be darker than coal."
"Is it true that you can't make money by doing it properly?"
"I exaggerated a bit. You can still make money, but it's not worth it for you. Coal mining is suitable for ruthless people who put their heads on the belt, not for making money. If you really have spare money, I'll recommend a place for you. I can't say much, but it's good enough to keep your money from depreciating."
“Can I pick it up anytime?”
“If the year is over, the profit can be settled. If it is less than one year, only the principal will be refunded.”
"Okay, I'll go back and figure out how much I can withdraw." Lin Guangwei nodded and said, "Do you have any Hong Kong dollars left? Shall we settle the bill?"
Nan Yi waved his hand and said, "No hurry, wait until Li Hai comes out."
"Can you come out tomorrow?" Lin Guangwei lit a cigarette and asked quietly.
"It will probably be around this afternoon. I'll go to the detention center entrance at one o'clock tomorrow and wait."
"I won't go. I'm upset to see him."
"Um."
Exhaling a puff of white smoke, Lin Guangwei talked about something else, "When are you leaving?"
"If everything goes well tomorrow, we'll leave the day after tomorrow."
"It's a bit urgent. I'll arrange for you to meet next time."
Nan Yi chuckled, "My future sister-in-law is quite shy, do I need to be mentally prepared?"
Lin Guangwei said seriously: "You need to make some preparations. I told her that you are half her husband's family."
"Haha, you bastard, are you planning to extort a big red envelope from me?"
"Haha, it doesn't have to be too big, one hundred and eighty-eight thousand is enough."
"That's a nice thought. The red envelopes you gave me over the years can't even make up 80,000 yuan. The most I can do is return the red envelopes to you and give you some interest."
"A lonely ghost."
"As you please."
…
The next day.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Nan Yi arrived at the door of the detention center and met Qu Jing who had arrived in the morning.
The two of them sat in silence until about three o'clock, when the small door on the main gate of the detention center was opened. Li Hai, with a slightly hunched back, walked out of the door. He stopped and looked around, and saw Qu Jing and Nan Yi.
Life is not a performance, and emotions will not be so overwhelming. Li Hai and Qu Jing did not hug each other, nor did they cry bitterly. Qu Jing looked Li Hai up and down, and did not find anything wrong, and a look of joy appeared in the corner of her eyes.
After the two of them finished their cuddling, Nan Yi stepped forward, patted Li Hai on his arched back, and said with a smile: "It seems that you were locked up at the wrong time. The cage is quite crowded. Are you sleeping on the floor?"
"How do you know I was sleeping on the floor?" Li Hai gave a bitter smile.
Nan Yi laughed, "You came out early. If you were transferred to the veterans' cage, the handicrafts such as beading and flower folding you did would have something to do with me. Let me tell you, I know everything about the detention center. Economic prisoners like you must be treated preferentially. You must sleep on the floor closest to the door, which is tilted downwards and has anti-slip patterns. Your back is not injured, but hurt."
The bitter smile on Li Hai's face became even wider. Nan Yi described his actual situation in there almost exactly. "Not only is it painful, but I can't sleep well either. There is a murderer and I have to keep watch."
Nan Yi hit Li Hai hard on the arm and said, "I've told you that I know everything, but you're still trying to fool me. Murderers will be sent directly to the veterans' cage, and you new recruits won't be on night watch. Come on, it seems that your stay in there was not in vain. Do you know how precious freedom is?"
Suspects who are likely to be sentenced to death will not only be shackled when they are locked in a cage, but other suspects in the same cage will also need to take turns watching them, for fear that they will drag others down with them or commit suicide or self-harm.
Li Hai nodded.
Nan Yi took out a pack of cigarettes and a lighter and stuffed them into Li Hai's hand. "The things you brought out are unlucky. Buy some clothes and go to a sauna. Spend the money you brought out before going home. I'm leaving at noon tomorrow. If you want to talk, come to my place tomorrow morning."
"good."
After saying something to Qu Jing, Nan Yi said goodbye and left, leaving the space for the couple. After returning to his car, Nan Yi called Liu Zhen again to inform her that Li Hai had come out.
The next day, Li Hai came to Xinhepu Villa as promised. Nan Yi didn't talk too much with Li Hai. He just advised him to take a break for a while and think carefully about what he wanted to do in the future. He could do it by himself or with him, and he would give him help to the best of his ability.
After the chat, Nan Yi set off for Xiangkeng.
In the Fang family manor, Nan Wuwei was soaking in the swimming pool, and his grandmother Fang Mengyin was sitting on a lounge chair by the pool, looking at Nan Wuwei with a kind face.
"grandmother."
"Nan Yi, Wu Wei looks more and more like your grandfather. His eyebrows and nose are similar, but his personality is different. His personality is like yours, smooth and not like your grandfather. Your grandfather is too hard and easily broken."
"Grandma, didn't you say that my eldest brother looks like grandpa? It's as if they were carved from the same mold?"
"They are different. Your elder brother is similar in appearance, while Wuwei is similar in spirit. Your grandfather is not stupid at all."
"I think the photo is pretty naive, but you are a beauty in the eyes of the beholder."
"Stop talking nonsense and call Wuwei up. He has been soaking in the water for more than an hour."
"Um."
As soon as Nan Yi walked to Nan Wuwei, Nan Wuwei slurped a mouthful of water and planned to shoot a water arrow at Nan Yi.
"Stop it, I have to go out soon."
Nan Wuwei spat out the water in his mouth when he heard this and asked, "Will you take me with you?"
"No, find something to do yourself."
"It's boring, so I'll go online and chat. I met a French girl on the BBS, and she said she wanted to go to Shanghai to see me."
"Are you acting like an adult?"
Nan Wuwei pouted, "I'm not pretending, I just didn't tell her how old she is."
"You can have fun, but I want to warn you first. If someone asks you for photos, don't send them mine, or you'll never be able to go online again."
"Tsk, who wants to post yours? I'll post photos of celebrities."
"You are amazing, come up quickly and take a shower, I am waiting for you to go out."
Nan Wuwei pushed himself up against the edge of the swimming pool and came out of the water. "Aren't you going to take me with you?"
"You are the oldest in our family, how dare we leave you alone? Hurry up."
"oh."
After Nan Wuwei changed his clothes and came out, Nan Yi took him to Huoshi Island by boat.
There is a saline-alkali land next to the breeding base of Huoshizhou Xijing Company, and Fan Shengzhi’s seawater planting project has a branch here.
As soon as Nan Yi and his son arrived on the island, they went straight to the saline-alkali land. Professor Zhu Dayong, the person in charge of the branch, happened to be in an experimental field.
"Professor Zhu." Nan Yi walked closer and called out.
Zhu Dayong plucked a rice ear and handed it to Nan Yi, "Boss, the concentration of 9‰ failed."
Nan Yi took it and pinched the rice ears. Each one was flat. When he broke it open, he saw only a little red starch. He handed the rice ears to Nan Wuwei. Nan Yi clapped his hands and said, "The existence of ears means there is hope. Don't feel pressured and start over."
Zhu Dayong adjusted his glasses and said, "Boss, to be honest, there is still a long way to go before we can grow rice on the sea. You and I probably won't see the day when it will be realized."
"It's okay." Nan Yi pointed at Zhinan Wuwei, "My son, Professor Zhu, relax. It doesn't matter if he becomes a grandfather on that day or never.
I have said before that the seawater planting project has no pressure to recover costs. Its existence is only to cope with the hypothetical situation that most of the land will be submerged by sea water in the future due to the accelerated melting of Antarctic and Arctic glaciers.
It is to find a solution to the food problem for me, for you, for all of us, and for future generations of all people on earth.
This topic is huge and the goal is also huge, so it is a long-term project that will require continuous investment for decades or even hundreds of years. I am mentally prepared and will also let my son and grandson continue to invest.
So, Professor Zhu, you really don't have to worry, your project team's funding will definitely not be cut off, on the contrary..."
Nan Yi pointed to a test field with a sign that read "6‰ concentration" and said, "It is more important to get the Rouge Rice on the market as soon as possible, so that I can get some money back and not feel too sad when I pay out the money."
Zhu Dayong smiled and said, "The fishy smell of Rouge Rice has faded a lot now, and the salt content is still a bit high, but it already has a very good taste, and its nutritional value is much higher than that of ordinary rice."
Nan Yi waved his hand and said, "Okay, don't fool me. High salt content is a big problem. Should we try to grow a crop on the black soil this year to see what changes will occur in the composition of the crops grown."
“A diversity experiment?”
"Plant as many as possible in every climate zone, and test its cold resistance in the cold zone. Maybe it can even survive the winter."
Zhu Dayong shook his head. "It's almost impossible. We can only grow it in a greenhouse."
"Almost nothing is not the same as nothing at all. It's just a matter of money. Try it boldly."
Zhu Dayong's face straightened, "Boss, scientific experiments are not politics, there is no room for jokes."
Nan Yi laughed awkwardly, "Okay, no kidding, is the rice tree research topic of reference value to sea rice?"
"It's not very meaningful. Rice trees are going in a different direction. The only thing that can be used as a reference is the lodging resistance. The lodging resistance of sea rice is already sufficient, and there is no need to strengthen it at present."
"Well, Professor Zhu, you are busy. I will go to the Xijing Company to take a look."
"OK."
Nan Yi and Nan Wuwei left the saline-alkali land and on the way to Xijing Company, they passed by a fully enclosed glass-walled building with three earthen walls made of mud bricks.
"These were placed here by your sister. They come from Africa." Nan Yi pointed at the earth wall and introduced it to Nan Wuwei.
"Dad, these aren't just ordinary mud bricks, are they?"
"Yes, there is a dormant African lungfish inside each brick. They don't hibernate like bears do, but at the cellular level. If we can crack its mystery, perhaps one day in the future, humans will be able to achieve hibernation as well."
Nan Wuwei's eyes lit up, "Space travel?"
"Yes, this is your sister Ruoyin's dream. I am more mercenary and see the other side. If a person can enter a dormant state instantly, it can buy precious time for rescue. In other words, they can go into dormancy first and wait for the advancement of medical technology."
Nan Wuwei asked: "Can it be achieved?"
"After you've invested money and people, the rest depends on luck. Scientific research is 99% investment plus 1% luck. For our family, this 1% luck is the most important, because our investment is 999%, and there is absolutely no lack of investment."
Nan Wuwei said worriedly, "Dad, you won't go bankrupt if you invest money like this, right?"
Nan Yi laughed heartily and said, "Hahaha, don't worry. Dad is not putting all his eggs in one basket. He has left room for maneuver. Even if all the investments fail, it won't stop you from buying this or that."
Nan Wuwei patted his chest and said, "That's good, that's good."
Nan Yi stroked Nan Wuwei's head and said, "Let's go and check out our oysters and sea cucumbers. Pick out a few big ones to give to Roberto Baggio. After eating our sea cucumbers, Italy will definitely win the World Cup next year."
Nan Wuwei: "Bullshit, Brazil has Romario on the team, so Brazil will definitely win the championship."
"Nonsense, Romario has a conflict with head coach Lazzaro Ni. Didn't you see that he was just a substitute in the last World Cup?"
Nan Wuwei: "Humph, anyway, I am optimistic about the Brazilian team. I will go buy a set of Brazilian team uniforms later."
"It's yellow and ugly."
Nan Wuwei: "The Italians are the most talented and ugly."
The father and son bickered all the way to the Xijing Company. They inspected the oysters and sea cucumbers on the surface of the sea, then took a look at the fishing boat that was ready to ship the goods, and greedily touched a few handfuls of fresh abalone weighing more than two kilograms.
"Dad, this abalone is so big, can you take it home and eat it?"
"You're so greedy, Australian abalone, it's not that delicious, next time dad will get some abalone to eat."
"Australian abalone is obviously delicious..." Nan Wuwei pouted and muttered, "Dad, why don't you say half an abalone? A whole abalone is so expensive, you would rather sell it than eat it yourself."
Nan Yi smiled bitterly and said, "Can you tell the difference between one end and two ends?"
“I haven’t eaten any.”
"I haven't eaten them either. What about the two and four or five?"
"Almost." Nan Wuwei said after thinking for a while.
"It's not going to last. They all taste almost the same. Does it matter how many you eat? Keep one or two to sell for money to fool those who have too much money to spend. I'll take you to Sai Kung Pier later and fill two lunch boxes with crab roe so you can take them home and steam them."
Abalone is rare, so buyers have to have favors to buy it. It is not difficult to sell it, as buyers will make arrangements early and come to get it as soon as it becomes available.
If it wasn't from his own home, Nan Yi wouldn't mind spending some money to buy it and try it, but since it was from his own home, he always felt that it was a bit of a pity to eat something that could earn tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars. Compared to tasting the flavor, Nan Yi would rather earn tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars.
Nan Wuwei rolled his eyes and said cunningly, "No crab roe, I'm tired of it. How about braised ant heads in the evening?"
"Okay, I'll make it for you. Today we'll have braised ant heads, and tomorrow I'll make you steamed mosquito blood." Nan Yi grabbed Nan Wuwei's neck and said viciously, "If you can't finish it, I'll use a funnel to pour it into your mouth. School beauty, call and ask Australia to send two kilograms of bull ant heads over. No matter the price, it must be delivered before midnight tonight."
"clear."
Nan Wuwei heard Nan Yi and the school beauty singing the same tune and immediately admitted his mistake, "Dad, I was wrong."
"I asked you to braise ant heads. I'm willing to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to make you a real dish." Nan Yi let go of Nan Wuwei's neck and scratched his nose. "Stinky boy, next time you want to defeat someone, you have to be more rigorous. You have to specify the species of ants and evaluate whether the other party is capable of doing it."
"I get it. I won't do it again next time." Nan Wuwei stuck out his tongue and thought to himself that it was a close call.
"Little monkey, let's go. I'll take you to Sai Kung Pier to eat seafood."
There is a floating seafood market at Sai Kung Pier. One of the fishmongers from the Tanka family will be on a boat full of seafood, and the other will stand on the promenade bridge at the public pier. Buyers stand on the promenade bridge, leaning on the railing, looking down four or five meters to see the seafood on the boat. After they like the seafood, they can bargain with the sellers next to them. After the deal is made, the people on the boat will clean and pack the seafood and carry it up with a long pole.
Almost all seafood stalls near the dock provide processing services. Gourmets can buy seafood at the floating seafood market and then have it processed by the stalls.
This is what Nan Yi and his son did. They leaned over the railing on the promenade bridge and looked at the seafood on the boat below. Nan Wuwei would buy a little of whatever he wanted to eat. He would not buy too much of each item, but he bought quite a lot of varieties.
Soon, the father and son bought a lot of seafood and walked towards the food stalls. Nan Wuwei hummed a song while swinging the seafood in his hands, "Success and failure depend on hard work. If a person has aspirations, he should not be afraid of being late. Accept it."
Hearing this, Nan Yi continued to sing, "I don't care who is with me, success depends on real ability, let's do it together."
"Be a real man, take on pain and frustration, devote yourself to what you are willing to do, and do your best. Who uses hostility to pretend to be sincere? Just take action and don't use too many words. The charm is this affection. Who doesn't have sad past? Be a real man. After all, everyone will die once..."
"Lao Nan, you can't sing as well as I do."
"Well, it's not as nice as yours, but I have a son and I can beat him up if I'm not happy."
“Old Nan, don’t be shameless. I used to tolerate you because you are my father. Now I can’t tolerate it anymore and there is no need to tolerate it anymore. Nan Wuwei of the Wudang Sect, make your move.” Nan Wuwei put the seafood on the ground and assumed the starting posture of Tai Chi.
Nan Yi smiled contemptuously, handed the bag in his hand to the school beauty, and then said slowly: "American Wing Chun Nan Yi, I am good at using a hidden weapon 9㎜, but I haven't practiced it to the fullest, so I can only fire it 15 times. If you can dodge it, I will admit defeat. Tianxian, Tiger Cub, lift up my 9㎜."
Nan Wuwei: "Old Nan, you don't follow the moral code of martial arts."
"You dare to call me Lao Nan? You are so arrogant. Looks like I have to use 7.62 to deal with you."
Nan Wuwei picked up the seafood on the ground again, with a bleak look on his face, "The world has changed, and there is no place for kung fu anymore."
"Namo Gatlin Bodhisattva, well done, well done, Mr. Nan has attained great enlightenment, it is truly a cause for celebration. If Mr. Nan kneels before me devoutly for 7749 seconds and offers me 99810,000 merits, I will accept Mr. Nan as my chariot driver."
Nan Wuwei: "What does Yu Lao Tongzi do?"
"The driver of my Rolls-Royce is the chauffeur."
Nan Wuwei: "Old Nan, you are going too far. My grandfather was a seventh-rank sword-carrying guard, known as the silly second whip of the gods. If you don't give me face, you have to give him face."
"Well, I used this argument before. I was talking about my great-grandfather, a little bastard who was just repeating what others said."
Nan Wuwei: "Hey, do you know whose territory Saigon belongs to?"
Hearing Nan Wuwei's words, Nan Yi frowned, "Have you read the Young and Dangerous comics?"
Nan Wuwei: "Dad, have you seen it too?"
"Well, I've seen it. You, just watch for fun. Not to mention the comics, even the dwarf mule in real life can only be a chamber pot. Do you know what a chamber pot is?"
Nan Wuwei: "I know. If you need it, use it. If you don't, throw it under the bed."
"Yes, short mules have no future."
"Dad, I know. Are you afraid that I will learn bad things?" Nan Wuwei said with a smile.
"He's a little devil."
Nan Yi cursed with a smile, then took Nan Wuwei to a Hongji seafood stall, handed the seafood in Nan Wuwei's hand to the school beauty, and then found an open-air seat to sit down.
"I'm going to Japan tomorrow for two days. Do you want to come with me?"
"Going to Tokyo?"
"right."
"Okay, I want to buy a 3DO game console."
"Whatever you want."
As Nan Yi spoke, his eyes looked in one direction. Not far away, Luo Zhaohui was walking towards them with his arm around Liu Jiajia. The two of them were sticking close to each other, very affectionate, not avoiding the gazes of passers-by at all.
Perhaps Liu Jiajia's clinginess was just an act. She soon noticed Nan Yi, her brows raised with joy, and she turned her head and said something to Luo Zhaohui. Then, Luo Zhaohui also looked at Nan Yi.
After a while, Luo Zhaohui and the other man came to the table, "Nansheng, what a coincidence."
"Xiao Luo, are you going on a date or eating seafood?"
"You can eat seafood while dating, and you can also date while eating seafood. Nansheng, who is this?" Luo Zhaohui pointed to Nan Wuwei.
"My son, Nan Wuwei." Nan Yi introduced Nan Wuwei to Luo Zhaohui, and then said to Nan Wuwei: "Wuwei, this is Luo Zhaohui's uncle, and she is Liu Jiajia's aunt."
"Hello, Uncle Luo, hello, Aunt Liu."
After Nan Wuwei and Luo Zhaohui exchanged greetings, Nan Yi invited them to sit down.
As soon as Luo Zhaohui sat down, he said, "Nansheng, the Chongqing Building project will be sold out soon, and your share will be around 226 million."
Nan Yi said happily: "Xiao Luo, you are amazing. You have earned more than 160 million in such a short time. According to the rules, I should give you 15% of the share. You can give me 200 million when the time comes."
Luo Zhaohui said with both joy and surprise: "Nansheng, this is inappropriate, isn't it?"
Nan Yi said generously: "How can it be inappropriate? This is your project. You are making money with me, so it is only right that I give you a share. Okay, it is settled."
"Okay, thank you Nansheng."
"No need to thank me, let's go and have some fun some other day." While Nan Yi was speaking, he gestured to Nan Wuwei towards Luo Zhaohui.
Luo Zhaohui understood what he meant and said yes.
Liu Jiajia listened to the conversation between Nan Yi and the other person. She felt sad. She was bullied by Luo Zhaohui in various ways, and the money she got was not even as much as a fraction of a fraction of a sentence. 26 million, was just given away so easily?
At this moment, Liu Jiajia couldn't help but have the idea of ​​changing her allegiance and following a rich man.
Soon, the processed seafood began to be served. Nan Yi ordered some draft beer and started drinking with Luo Zhaohui. He had just heard about the dividends, so it was not appropriate to talk about business matters. Nan Yi had to change the topic to women.
