Chapter 648 Guarantee two and fight for three
The gambling license auction is about to begin.
To ordinary people, it may not matter, but this auction is enough to determine the future of Haojiang for decades.
For the He family, it will determine the rise and fall of the entire family.
Therefore.
He held a comprehensive family meeting in advance.
As a member of the family, He Yihui naturally followed the fourth wife to the main house. She originally thought that Mrs. He would reprimand her because of the photo, and she was mentally prepared, but what she didn't expect was , Mrs. He didn’t mention a word, still looking pleasant.
A big family still has its benefits.
The luxurious hall was full of people and very lively. Everyone was talking and laughing. The whole family was in unprecedented harmony.
As the head of the family, the elegant Mrs. He smiled and drank tea. She seemed to enjoy the atmosphere at this time. She glanced at the simple wall clock on the wall.
The second wife, who noticed this action, looked at the third wife and asked, "Acai, why hasn't Qiyang arrived yet? Why don't you call and ask."
The third wife was a little embarrassed.
Her precious son is the youngest among the younger generation of the He family, even younger than He Yihui.
Therefore, it is the least worry for her.
I am actually late for such an important occasion.
"I have already urged him. He is on the way and will be there soon."
Santa said quickly.
The second wife nodded.
Mrs. He has ordered that, except for her married daughter, everyone in the family must attend this meeting. After all, no matter how internal fighting happens on weekdays, the next auction will involve everyone in the He family. All are related.
“Buzz…”
About four or five minutes later, the loud sound of a sports car was heard outside the manor.
“Qiyang is here.”
The person who spoke was the eldest son of the gambling king, and of course, he was also the son of Mrs. He.
As the eldest brother of the younger generation, He Hongtu should have shouldered the important responsibilities of the entire family, and from the name given to him by the gambling king, we can see his expectations for the eldest son, but He Long gave birth to nine sons. , each is different.
The eldest son of a gambling king who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth does not seem to be interested in fame and wealth. He is quiet and indifferent. He has loved calligraphy since he was a child. He is naturally resistant to gambling. How can he resist such a temperament? The responsibility to carry forward the family?
Mrs. He tried to teach her son to change, but although he did not inherit the ambition of the king of gambling, he inherited the stubbornness of the king of gambling. In the end, in order to avoid a breakup between mother and son, Mrs. He had no choice but to compromise.
No matter how strong you are, you may only retreat in front of your own son.
For this eldest son, the gambling king also felt very complicated during his lifetime. On the one hand, he admired his son's temperament of being indifferent to fame and wealth. On the other hand, he felt a little regretful. After all, he was born from the main wife, and he was The eldest son should be the best person to inherit his career.
That’s why he expressed his emotion many times in private that it would be great if He Junru was a son.
I don’t know if it’s luck or misfortune, but the children of the gambling king are all different, and each one has a different personality. As a father, he should be happy for such a "hundred flowers blooming", but it is precisely because of this that what happened The current situation of overt and covert fighting among the clan,
If He Junru's character were replicated in the eldest son He Hongtu, the He family would probably have become monolithic long ago, and Mrs. He would not be so old and still have to insist on standing in front of the stage.
As expected.
Not long after, a fashionable young man walked into the hall elegantly. He had handsome broken hair. In terms of handsomeness, he was even more handsome than the little boy on TV. He was a little more similar. Innate nobility.
This kind of temperament that is different from ordinary people must be cultivated over many years and cannot be faked by acting alone.
"Haha, I'm sorry, I saw an old lady crossing the road on the way, and I went to help her, so I wasted some time."
This guy raised his hand to edit while walking, which made him laugh. Everyone.
Even He Yihui couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth.
It is true that she is the youngest daughter of the gambling king, but she is not the youngest child of the gambling king.
This guy, like a living treasure, is her only brother in this big family.
“Why don’t you get up earlier if you know there is something important today?”
He Qiyang, the youngest son of the gambling king, walked to his mother, Mrs. Third, and was patted on the shoulder in a reprimand.
He put his arm around the third wife's shoulders, with a hint of grievance on his handsome face: "I set the alarm, but I don't know why it didn't go off."
This guy's temperament, everyone here, Which one doesn’t understand?
The king of gambling is so handsome that everyone can see it.
The genes for appearance seem to have been passed down to the youngest pair of children.
Every one of the gambling king's children has outstanding appearance, but the ones who stand out the most are none other than He Yihui and He Qiyang.
Not only did he inherit the suaveness of the gambling king, He Qiyang also inherited the gambling king's style. He didn't care much about family affairs. All his energy seemed to be put into picking up girls. He even had a record of changing five girls a week. My friend's feat was even photographed by the media with him taking three pretty girls in and out of a hotel.
The outside world has long been accustomed to his romantic affairs.
In every prosperous wealthy family, there will always be a libertine. In the He family, He Qiyang plays such a role very well.
Of course.
In this regard, the third wife criticized him countless times, and He Qiyang corrected his mistakes and stopped dating amateurs. So the girls who appeared next to him began to become supermodels and actresses. His current real girlfriend is a famous actress with a certain international reputation. Supermodel.
It must be nonsense that the alarm clock didn't go off. It was probably because I played too late with my supermodel girlfriend last night and got up late.
The third wife naturally knew that her son was lying, and she would not expose her son in front of so many people. Thank God that he did not bring those women from outside.
“Sit tight.”
Third wife gave a warning look.
He Qiyang sat down and at the same time, raised his eyebrows at He Yihui.
In the whole big family, among so many brothers and sisters, he and He Yihui should be the closest, not only because they are the closest in age, but more importantly, He Yihui never educates him.
That’s why Young Master He, who seemed to be busier than everyone else in the He family, attended He Yihui’s birthday party for the first time. The Aston Martin that He Yihui drove was his.
“Now that everyone is here, let’s get started.”
Tai He spoke.
Everyone fell silent in unison.
Mrs. He looked calm and looked around the whole family, "I called everyone here today. I think everyone knows the reason for this. Mr. He spent his whole life and went through a lot of hardships to achieve this job. Foundation..."
Mrs. He first looked back on the past and led everyone to relive the difficulties that the gambling king had at the beginning of his business.
Remember the bitter and think of the sweet.
Except for Mrs. He, everyone remained quiet and listened silently, without anyone interrupting.
“Now it’s time for the gambling cards to be auctioned again. I don’t need to elaborate on the importance of the gambling cards to our He family. These three gambling cards are the foundation of our He family.”
Mrs. He didn't finish her words, but everyone present knew it.
These three gambling cards are also the guarantee of their prosperity and wealth.
"Mom, these three gambling cards have always been managed by our He family. Due to emotions and reasons, we should continue to keep them."
He Hongtu spoke.
At this time, he is indeed the most suitable to be the first to speak.
"Brother is right. These three gambling cards have always belonged to our He family. Does anyone still want to snatch them now? I am the first to disagree!"
He Qiyang doesn't care at all. There is order between elders and younger ones, and they immediately support each other.
“Shut up.”
Santa reprimanded in a low voice.
"Mom, am I wrong? Do you want to grab the gambling license? I don't even think about where this place is. The gambling king can only be effective in the hands of our He family."
He Qiyang It seemed that he was communicating with the third wife, but his voice was not low, and almost everyone present could hear him clearly.
Although this prodigal son spends all his time in debauchery and does not care about business, he still has a strong sense of family honor.
These words also express the feelings of many people.
“We, the He family, always act according to the rules. And no matter what we do, we can’t do it just by talking.”
He Tai did not speak lightly or seriously. He Qiyang immediately shut up.
The third wife looked embarrassed and couldn't help but glare at her son again.
"Sister, didn't congratulations come here on Yihui's birthday? What did he say?"
The second wife asked.
Everyone is watching Mrs. He.
No matter what happens in normal times, at this time when the fate of the family is concerned, Mrs. He is still the well-deserved backbone of the entire big family.
"He Shou said that this time the gambling cards will be auctioned in three parts."
Three auctions?
When Mrs. He finished speaking, the scene immediately exploded.
"Three times? Why three times?"
"The gambling cards originally belong to our He family, why do we have to go to such trouble?"
"Yes, how good is it to get it done in one go?"
It seems that in most people's minds, keeping three gambling cards is a sure thing.
Waiting for everyone to finish expressing their thoughts, Mrs. He said slowly: "He Shou can't make the decision on this matter."
"Auntie, I think, three times The auction is not necessarily a bad thing for us.”
It was He Junru who spoke.
Even though she is a junior, in the large He family, the right to speak is not just based on the order of seniority and inferiority.
As soon as she spoke, the elders present did not rush to refute, they were all thoughtful.
“Junru, tell me what you think.”
Everyone here has the surname He.
The speaker was the gambling king’s younger brother, He Junru’s uncle.
Facing the eyes of the whole family, He Junru looked calm, "Everyone knows that this gambling license auction is different from the past. The competitors are very strong. The auction will be divided into three auctions, which at least can give us a buffer."< br>
There is room for buffering,
Everyone here is smart, and there is no way to decipher what He Junru said.
"Junru, do you think that with the strength of our He family, we can't win three gambling cards at once?"
The fourth wife couldn't help but speak out, emphasizing that she Fang Fang's achievements, he said loudly: "You know, Guo just helped us with 20 billion."
Whispers sounded.
"Fourth Aunt, Guo did lend us 20 billion, but I feel that these 20 billion are not enough to solve the problem."
The words fell, and the discussion deepened.
Many people were whispering to each other.
Sharing weal and woe, the importance of gambling is self-evident, and you have to care about it.
"Junru, how much do you think it will cost us to keep the three gambling cards this time?"
He Hongtu spoke.
Even if you are indifferent to fame and fortune, it does not mean that you can stand on the sidelines on such an important event related to the family's future.
“Conservative estimate, one hundred billion.”
He Junru spoke calmly.
Hearing this, many people’s expressions changed.
What is the concept of one hundred billion?
Last year the GDP of the entire Haojiang was only over 20 billion US dollars.
Converted into RMB, that is more than 100 billion.
"Sister, are you exaggerating a little? Last time the gambling license expired, how much did our family spend?" He Qiyang spoke up again unwilling to be lonely.
The last time gambling licenses were auctioned was ten years ago. According to his age, he was only a child in junior high school at that time.
“The times are different now, and the competitors are also different. We need to prepare for the worst.”
He Junru is not in a hurry.
If another person had said this, even a few wives would have been criticized by thousands of people. But the one who made such an argument was He Junru, who is by far the most outstanding young generation in the entire family.
Although there was endless discussion, everyone still listened to her words and felt a little solemn.
"Junru, do you think we need 100 billion to keep our gambling license this time?"
He Tai asked solemnly.
He Junru nodded calmly.
"Sister, how much money do we currently have available for bidding?" The second wife interjected to help her daughter share the pressure.
"About 70 billion."
"Including the 20 billion borrowed by Guo?" the fourth wife confirmed.
Mrs. He nodded.
"Seventy billion, doesn't this mean there is still a gap of 30 billion?"
He Qiyang muttered.
No one here can figure out such a simple math problem.
But this is not as simple as primary school arithmetic.
A gap of 30 billion.
Thirty billion.
Even for a top family member like He in Haojiang, it is an extraordinary number.
The atmosphere became quiet for a while.
For this gambling card auction, every member of the entire family did their best, those with money contributed money, and those without money contributed. It would be okay if the number was small, but this is a whole Thirty billion.
Thinking about it makes me feel powerless.
"Junru, according to your opinion, doesn't it mean that we can't keep the three gambling cards this time?"
Only Mrs. He dared to speak out so bluntly.
He Yihui, who said nothing from beginning to end, looked at the most outstanding sister in the family.
The other party was neutral and nodded as if nothing had happened, as if he didn't know what kind of pressure he would face.
"Auntie, according to my opinion, if we can keep three gambling cards, of course it would be best. If it is impossible, we might as well take a step back."
"How to take a step back?"
The brother of the gambling king immediately spoke up.
Relying on the big tree of the He family, he can be said to enjoy great honors in the land of Haojiang. Therefore, his thoughts are more pure than those of the He family here. He extremely hopes that the He family can continue The glory of the past.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on He Junru’s face.
The highly praised daughter of the He family was calm and composed. In an extremely calm tone, she faced the eyes of the whole family and said: .
“Guarantee two and fight for three.”
Four simple words.
But the meeting of the top wealthy families in Haojiang fell into silence for a while.
