Chapter 217 Eliminate the Last Bit of Suspicion
Before sending Hobbs away, Li Changheng went to the sewer to confirm that there were really sunken tires, and then sent Hobbs to the private airport.
Watching the plane take off, and then went to the law firm in a Rolls Royce.
After the barrister specializing in contracts from the largest law firm in London confirmed that there was no problem with the contract, he brought his team of lawyers back to the diamond group headquarters.
The process of signing the contract went smoothly, and 28 million pounds was also transferred from the 100 million pound account opened by Hobbs to the accounts of 6 shareholders and Oliver who replaced the old Aston.
Because the old Aston was in a coma, Oliver, who also owned shares in Diamond Group, took over from his father. Like the other six shareholders, he allocated 0.3% of his shares to Li Changheng.
After that, it is to sign a contract that rewards 5% of the shares if the diamond is found.
Although the process of searching for diamonds was deliberately delayed overnight, nothing happened.
Oliver and several shareholders were shocked and speechless when they saw that the diamonds were not only hidden in the sewer, but were also hidden separately, and even the six tires with the diamonds kept moving.
If they didn't know the exact information about these six tires, no one would have thought of such a way to hide things.
And if it weren't for the group's ten security guards to use high-power portable miner's lamps to illuminate and search all the way, no one would have been able to find the six tires in the dark river for several kilometers.
Three days later, Li Changheng, who had received his shareholding certificate and officially became a shareholder of Diamond Group, stood in the aisle outside the vault in a slim black suit.
Watching a dozen or so invited reporters standing outside the refurbished vault, holding a camera, cleaning it, and keeping taking pictures of the huge amount of diamonds stored in the vault.
The only pity is that in the cabinet where sixteen large-carat cut diamonds were placed at the beginning, there is only Cullinan No. 16 diamond at this time.
The African Star No. 3 diamond was given to Li Changheng by the old Aston five days ago. The other 14 diamonds that can rival Cullinan No. 16 were not found after three days of searching in the sewer.
The loss of these diamonds alone amounted to £8 million.
However, these 14 diamonds are not worth mentioning compared to the two tons of rough diamonds and the entire diamond group.
The only certainty is that the auction price of large carat diamonds will definitely drop in the future.
Many potential customers, having heard the news, would have waited for these diamonds to show up on the black market.
Only Li Changheng knew that the diamond should be hidden by Hobbs as a guarantee for his later life.
If the old man hadn't been hired, he might have sold one or two without a source of income.
But now these diamonds will probably only be left to someone who has been trusted by Hobbs when he is dying.
Turning his head to look at Laura Quinn in a lady's suit, this woman should be counted as one.
After all, Hobbs gave her the 100 million pounds in the movie in the end.
"I saw the list of candidates for the new branch manager of the island country this morning. Even though Oliver and I mentioned you, it's a pity that your name didn't appear on the information."
"I've already expected it," Quinn shook his head with disappointment in his eyes, "Then when will I go to Hong Kong and Kowloon, Boss?"
Li Changheng frowned and looked at Kui En with a smile, "Did that old man contact you?"
Quinn scanned the surroundings carefully, making sure no one was paying attention.
Cai whispered, "Hobbs called the tavern near my home and asked the tavern owner to pass on a number to me.
It took me a long time to figure out that the number was a phone number.
After contacting him last night, I asked me to burn the letter he gave me, resign and go to Hong Kong and Kowloon to meet him and work for you. "
Li Changheng narrowed his eyes for a moment, frowning, thinking that he and Zhang Tianzhi had been to Quinn's house, but they didn't find anything special after searching all night.
Moreover, Quinn, who lived on Garden Avenue for two nights, had already been inspected by the housekeeper, Ms. Merrill, for the clothes she changed and the room she lived in.
Li Changheng reacted suddenly, "You have been hiding the letter at my house?"
Quinn smiled and nodded, "The first night I went to your house, I hid the letter under the flower pot in the garden."
Li Changheng immediately looked at Quinn with some admiration. It was rainy in London, so it was really risky to hide the letter outside, but it was safe for a short time.
Li Changheng, who was thinking about what was written in the letter, bid farewell to Quinn and returned home.
But when he found the letter, he opened the envelope and laughed.
It turned out to be another blank sheet of paper.
After thinking about it for a while, I realized that Hobbs didn't actually trust Quinn before he took revenge.
In other words, he didn't have a second chance, so he didn't dare to trust Quinn.
He was unable to leave the Diamond Building at that time, and he had no chance to communicate with the outside world except for meeting Quinn.
So from the beginning to the end, apart from the fact that the diamonds were hidden in car tires before stealing the diamonds, it was impossible to deploy a second backhand.
Letting Quinn say it now is nothing more than showing that Quinn knows very little, and there is no need to be on guard or even silence him.
At the same time, it also made it clear that he, Hobbs, cared about Quinn, the woman he dragged into the water.
With Li Changheng in hand, he will no longer be in the struggle between silencing and not silencing from time to time in the future.
Hobbs, who has been hesitating for more than ten years whether to get paid or not, definitely understands this kind of pain.
So he knew that the longer Li Changheng struggled, the more bloody killings would happen when he finally erupted.
And for him who has already arrived in Hong Kong and Kowloon, there is still a chance to escape, but it is difficult for Quinn who has been staying in London.
But what Hobbs didn't know was that Hong Kong and Kowloon were the most powerful places for Li Changheng.
Any order, whether it is Lan Jiang or Yan Tong, the two of them will definitely not mind sending someone to kill an old man in England.
Even if Yan Tong has scruples, Lan Jiang, who has seen Li Changheng's influence and network in London these days, must know that the consequences of refusing are more serious than killing Hobbs.
On the contrary, in a place like London, Li Changheng has too many scruples because of Annie, and he has never even had direct contact with the London police who he has black information about.
A few days later, Quinn, who handed in his resignation letter to Oliver Aston, boarded a plane to Hong Kong and Kowloon with Lan Jiang and Huo Biao.
A week ago, Bell bribed the people in the foreign affairs department, and the application for eliminating the Jubilee Constant title was submitted four days ago.
Without this layer of skin, Zhou Nianheng couldn't stop the investigations of Lei Luo, Yan Tong, Howard, and Hunter.
And as soon as the news and evidence of Zhou Nianheng's arrest were announced, those people who had had feuds with him in the past, or even had enemies, would never let this opportunity go.
When the wall falls, everyone pushes away, and when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter.
The illegal behaviors and evidence of those managers and executives who wanted to be tainted witnesses in Guangyuan Pharmaceutical Factory were enough to serve more than ten years in prison.
As long as he goes in, within three months he will definitely be murdered by Lei Luo or Yan Tong.
An accident slips, or those prisoners who have been rebelled for life will be killed.
On the plane, Lan Jiang, who was sitting by the window, looked at the increasingly smaller airport and the city of London in the distance, and lamented that he was really lucky.
If Yan Tong came this time, he would definitely get all the benefits.
But thinking of what Henry told him when he was parting, never to touch the flour, Lan Jiang had a faint feeling in his heart that these detectives would step down one day and had a premonition of bad luck.
Fortunately, this exhortation also made Lan Jiang understand that when danger comes, at least he is not an abandoned child who has no backing and is abandoned casually.
Looking down at his wife who was lying in his arms because he was afraid of flying, Lan Jiang sighed in his heart. It seemed that his wife's wish to live in a mansion was not so easy to come true.
Now that Henry has hinted, it means that he will charge at most some fees in the future, and it is better not to charge other black money.
However, considering that I am only 35 years old and have a long way to go in the future, I still think about having children with peace of mind in the past few years.
