McDonald's seats are very compact, less than a meter next to the aisle, another seat, a middle-aged man, and a young man.

The middle-aged man was in his thirties and forties, with a slender face, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his nose, a striped suit, a straight back, his hair neatly combed behind his head, and a square old black leather case on his right hand.

The paint on the suitcase has fallen off, and he is tall and thin but delicately dressed, feeling like an old-school intellectual, very much from the Republic of China period.

This kind of dress is still relatively rare, and Fan Yang has already found him when he finds a seat.

The other young man, probably no more than twenty years old, wore a white shirt, a khaki director's hat, gray plaid suspenders, and the shirt was tucked into the pants, and his face was still very green.

The two also came to dine, with a plate in front of them, a cup of Coke in front of the young man and a cup of coffee in the middle-aged man's hand.

It was this young man who interjected just now, looking at Fan Yang with a look of disdain: "What's good about the ghost guy, it's like no one has ever been there." ”

The middle-aged man frowned slightly: "Ah Kun." He stopped speaking, turned his head to Fan Yang and smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how to be polite." ”

"It's fine. Fan Yang suddenly became interested, this middle-aged man's Mandarin is a little jerky, with an obvious Hakka accent, this accent is very different, either Chaoshan or Guangdong, and he asked abruptly: "Where is Mr. from?"

The middle-aged man smiled, he had already noticed Fan Yang, at least the silver-gray suit on Fan Yang's body was much more valuable than his own, and he also carried a watch in good condition, you must know that young people in this era often wear dragon robes and do not look like princes, and Fan Yang obviously does not have this feeling, and replied: "Shantou, Chaofeng, Mr. Your surname?"

"Don't be expensive, my surname is Fan, I'm from Lianyungang. As he spoke, he handed over his business card.

The middle-aged man took it with both hands, and when he saw the title on the business card, it turned out to be the general manager, his face was slightly happy, and he also turned out a business card, and handed it to Fan Yang with both hands: "Disrespectful, disrespectful, my owner is engaged in medicine, Chaofeng Huitongli, Mr. Fan is also here to do business?"

The middle-aged man was unusually polite, Fan Yang also stood up and took it with both hands, swept the business card slightly, and looked up not the name of the company, but a Chaofeng Chamber of Commerce, followed by three words, Chao Yongyi, followed by the name of the company, Chaofeng Huitongli Commercial Bank, medical representative, Lin Chaosheng.

Fortunately, seeing the four words of Chaofeng Chamber of Commerce, and then seeing Chao Yongyi, Fan Yang's brain melon seeds were buzzing, and a familiar feeling came up, this name is indeed old enough, so he quickly stood up and shook hands with Lin Chaosheng: "Disrespectful and disrespectful, I didn't expect to meet my predecessors in a foreign country, and it can be regarded as a hometown acquaintance, and it can be regarded as a fellow countryman." ”

Lin Chaosheng laughed and said, "Mr. Fan is also from Chaoshan?"

Fan Yang snorted and said: "Lianyungang, Shantou Port, are also people on the same coastline." ”

The army next to him looked inexplicable, since he followed Fan Yang, he had never seen Fan Yang so low-key, even in the face of those British, he said that he was a stinky fart, and his face was arrogant.

Fan Yang sat down and looked at the business card again.

Only he knows what the four words of Chaofeng Chamber of Commerce are.

Since the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the situation of the Chinese has been particularly difficult, and they have to survive in groups, and groups such as the hometown gang have emerged in an endless stream, such as those electronics factories in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, carrying sacks on the docks, and regional state factions.

Just working for the factory, there are also a lot of disputes.

There is a flyover outside the Longhua bus station in Shenzhen, there is a private printing, the tabloid newspaper that monopolizes the car and ship terminal has been sold for 10 years, 3 yuan a copy, the front page headline is one every day, hundreds of people, as the two major provinces that are also labor exports, these people who come to work for the first time are often attracted by this, and they buy it with great interest, but the result is all nonsense.

Either this star died, that star cheated, Andy Lau died countless times, and Chen Long often held memorial services.

There is even news of alien attacks on housing estates.

When you go out, everyone will seek help, such as coolie workers, businessmen, and even more so, a place of prestige people participate in the chamber of commerce, share network resources and platforms, and jointly make the business bigger.

There are also chambers of commerce in various places, just like the Henan people who resell clothing, they are also doing things in the name of the Henan Chamber of Commerce, gathering talents, and the management model is quite extensive, and it does not have much influence.

But the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce is different, this is a real time-honored brand, the history is much older than the Henan Chamber of Commerce, the Chamber of Commerce of New China, if you really want to trace, you can trace back to the Ming and Qing dynasties of Shanghai Hongmen.

And the name "Comptoir" is also very particular.

But to put it bluntly, it is the earliest company.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, it specifically referred to shops that did business with foreigners, and later developed and expanded, and gradually formed large-scale enterprises mainly dealing in certain products, such as the old Shanghai Hutchison Whampoa, which started with rice and noodles, Hong Kong Li Heng, which started with grain and oil, Datong Commercial Bank, which started with Western medicine, Lao Fengxiang, who started with gold jewelry, and so on.

Until now, those old enterprises still bear the name of a certain firm.

And these trading houses are also different from those engaged in production, for Fan Yang, who later foreign traders, these people are the real predecessors, relying on wharves, shipping, mobilizing goods from all over the world, transporting, and selling.

The golden age of Hong Kong's entrepot trade was supported by these large and small commercial houses, which were earlier and older than Li Chaoren and Zheng Yutong, and the old business house talkers, all of whom were stomped and stomped their feet, and the opposite side was shocked three times.

After the establishment of the People's Republic of China, Shanghai was no longer engaged in international trade, resulting in the shipping industry and wharf industry in old Shanghai also moved to Hong Kong, and Hongmen, which was mainly developed by wharf coolies, also moved its headquarters to Hong Kong with Du Yuesheng entering the port in 49 years.

The coolie workers at these wharves, if they wanted to have a job and a bite to eat, had to seek shelter from their fellow villagers, and gradually developed into branches of Hongmen, which were called at that time, such as Fuqing Bang, Chaozhou Bang, that is, Fujian people, Chaozhou people, the established state associations, all called themselves Hongmen orthodoxy.

The Chamber of Commerce is closely related to the wharf state council below, the chamber of commerce does business on it, charters ships to go to sea, and controls the business, while the state council relies on the chamber of commerce to provide food.

It is equivalent to the relationship between the owner and his subordinates.

And these state associations have also inherited some traditions of Hongmen, with strict hierarchical divisions, such as thugs called red sticks, gold medal beaters called double-flower red sticks, white paper fans, straw shoes, four six boys, four nine boys, sitting in the hall, sitting in the hall, but these are just low-level people, and the boss of the chamber of commerce is the real talker.

It's the same as Mr. Jiang in the old boy, they are all real rich people.

The business card is printed with the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce, and the origin of this company is not simple, which means that there is a top boss.

In the Chaoshan Guangdong area, just by virtue of these four words, all the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods from all walks of life must weigh it carefully, and no matter how much they can, they will give some face.

And what about the three words Chao Yongyi? It represents the state association, Chaozhou state, after landing in Hong Kong, due to the relationship between business, developed many branches, but all start with the word Chao Yongyi, like Chao Yongyi, Chao Renyi, Chao Zhongyi......

Fuqingbang also has some blessings and bravery, blessings and benevolence and the like.

It represents that the state faction that is all Hongmen is righteous has this tradition.

That is, the XX Society in Hong Kong.
