....

When I woke up the next day, as Huo Yaowen expected, there was an obvious bruise on the left side of my face, which happened to be on the left cheekbone of my face impartially.

After learning about the end of the matter, Anna covered her mouth and smiled: "You must have been dishonest last night, otherwise how could I give you a punch?"

Huo Yaowen glanced at her, thinking that if you were not honest yesterday, it would be a question of whether you can get up today.

But these words are just thinking about it in my heart, but I said: "Next time, I will guard against you, it's just a matter of drinking and playing drunk, and if you still do something, your life is in danger!"

Anna couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay, okay, it's my fault, I'll take you to the hospital later." ”

"Forget it, you don't have to go to the hospital for this little injury. ”

Huo Yaowen called the waiter in the restaurant and asked him to go and get an egg, and when the egg was brought over, he peeled off the shell, wrapped it in a napkin, and gently kneaded the egg slowly on the left cheekbone of his face.

Anna was a little puzzled: "What are you doing here?"

"It's an old way to relieve bruising and swelling. Huo Yaowen replied while rubbing his face with an egg.

Anna didn't know: "Is it a Chinese medicine doctor?"

Huo Yaowen thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's not a traditional Chinese medicine, do you know how to apply a hot compress to a bruised wound?"

As soon as she heard the hot compress, Anna understood what it meant, but she still stared at the egg in his hand with a little curiosity: "Why do you use boiled eggs?"

"Well, I don't know. Huo Yaowen didn't know why he used eggs, maybe because eggs could be eaten with a hot compress.

"Okay. Anna didn't ask, eating breakfast, suddenly felt slimy on her body, then remembered that she hadn't taken a bath all night from yesterday to now, plus she drank wine, and her body smelled a little, and said in an uncomfortable tone: "Let's eat faster, I want to go back and take a bath." ”

"Hmm. Huo Yaowen rubbed his face while speeding up the speed of eliminating breakfast, although he ate a lot last night, he was already hungry at this time.

While eating, Anna suddenly asked, "Did you take off my clothes?"

Huo Yaowen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said: "No, I asked the front desk lady for help, you drank too much yesterday, and your clothes were wet from the rain, so I was afraid that you would catch a cold when you sleeped, so I asked someone to help." ”

"Oh. Anna didn't know whether she was disappointed or what, but she let out a soft sigh and continued to eat breakfast.

Huo Yaowen didn't know what she meant, but looking at her face, she was very calm, and she couldn't see anything at all, so she could only speed up her breakfast.

......

There are no classes today.

After Huo Yaowen sent Anna back to school, he went back to his dormitory to take a shower, changed his clothes, and prepared to go out for a trip to the Far Eastern Stock Exchange.

I asked when I went last time, and the official opening of the Far Eastern Exchange was September 28, which was yesterday, but it was not too late to come over today.

When Huo Yaowen drove to the Far East Exchange, it was already more than ten o'clock in the morning, and there were some people standing outside the gate of the exchange at this time.

When he walked into the stock exchange, he found that this place was still quite large, different from the electronic trading board in later generations, at this time, it was still used to manually record stock prices and fluctuations on the big blackboard.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing the word "trader" on his arm walked up to Huo Yaowen's side and whispered: "Sir, are you here to buy stocks? There are several companies listed today, do you want to take a look?" ”

"All of them?" Huo Yaowen glanced at the visitor, and then put his gaze in front of the huge blackboard in front of him, a little far away, and he didn't know what was written on it.

"The companies listed today include Dahua Real Estate Company, Chen De Hardware Company, ......"

Huo Yaowen hadn't even heard the names of several listed companies mentioned by the trader, so he didn't have to guess to know that they were small companies, and he noticed that in the entire hall, in addition to him, although there were many people who came, they didn't look like ordinary shareholders at all, they should all be people engaged in the financial industry.

Huo Yaowen glanced at the trader: "That's all?"

The trader was a little embarrassed, nodded and said: "There are only a few listed on our Far East Stock Exchange for the time being, but there will be more companies listed in the future, Mr. can consider buying a little, if you buy stocks now, buy one share and get two shares free." ”

How generous!

I actually bought one share and got two shares free!

Huo Yaowen glanced at the trader, these listed companies, if they were some well-known companies that he had heard of in later generations, they would definitely buy them anyway, but what is this Dahua Real Estate Company, Chen De Hardware Company...... What are you playing?

Just as he was about to reject the trader, there was a sudden commotion outside.

"Mr. Ho, please. ”

"Haha, Brother Li, please first. ”

I saw that outside the gate, a group of people gathered around the door, and there were two people in front of each other modestly pushing each other.

Seeing these two people, Huo Yaowen's eyes were burning, he had seen these two people on the Internet in later generations, one was Li Fu, the main creator of the Far Eastern Association, and the other was Ho Hongluan of the famous Ho Qidong family in Hong Kong.

Ho Hung Luen is the cousin of the Macau gambling king, this person is also a powerful person, he once graduated from St. Joseph's College, received a bachelor of arts degree from the University of Hong Kong, and later went to the British Inland Revenue Office for 3 years of training.

In 1954, he joined the British Department of Hong Kong and successively served as Assessor of the Inland Revenue Department, Assistant Secretary for Civil Affairs, Assistant Chief Secretary, Assistant Treasurer, Assistant Director of Agriculture and Fisheries, and Deputy Director of Industry and Commerce.

Even last year, that is, in 1968, he was promoted to directorate C-level administrative officer, which is a rare official position among Chinese officials.

Looking at the back of the group, the trader's eyes were retracted, and when he wanted to continue to sell securities to the dignified and expensive man in front of him, he was shocked to find that the person had already left.

......

Huo Yaowen came to the Far Eastern Stock Exchange this time to see if there were any well-known companies listed at this time, taking advantage of the fact that the exchange had just been established and the stock price should be cheap, he wanted to pick up a leak, but after he came, he found that the listed companies were all small fish and shrimp, and he had never heard of it, and he still bought a ghost stock.

After coming out, Huo Yaowen didn't wander around, and drove to his home.

Yesterday on Grandma's birthday, he didn't accompany the old man well, so he went home at this time, so he could talk to Grandma more, and by the way, at noon, he went to Kowloon.

has already promised to arrange a job as a foundation clerk for Huo Xiufen, Huo Yaowen is not a person who breaks his promise, it is better to make an early decision on the late arrangement, take advantage of today's rest and no classes, and take Huo Xiufen to the foundation to have a look.

Wait until you get home.

There is only one grandmother in the house.

Seeing her grandson come back, Grandma didn't mention how happy she was, she said happily: "Yaowen, isn't the set of gold jewelry you bought yesterday very expensive, I took a look at your grandmother, the styles are very beautiful, and it is not cheap at first glance." ”

Huo Yaowen sat down next to Grandma, grabbed her hand, and said with a smile: "It's not very expensive, Grandma, if you like it, this is grandchildren's filial piety to your old man." ”

Grandma was relieved to hear this, but also with a smile on her face: "Okay, good, my grandson respects me, then I will accept it, and when you get married in the future, I will pass it on to your daughter-in-law." ”

Huo Yaowen smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Okay, then Grandma will keep it." ”

Suddenly remembering Huo Xiufen's matter, Huo Yaowen thought about it, and still said: "Grandma, Brother Yaozu told me yesterday that I would arrange a job for Xiufen. ”

Grandma sighed and said: "You Lao Dou also told me about this, since you can help, you can help, they are all a family, although I didn't look at her father Huo Chengguang in the past, but that is the grievance of the older generation, it is not about Xiufen's business, and Xiufen I like this girl very much." ”

"I know. Huo Yaowen nodded.

Grandma said: "Xiufen, although we don't have much contact with this girl, but your grandfather they have a lot of contact, when I talk to them on the phone, I often listen to them talk about this child, everything is good, but a little too shy, do not communicate with people, if you arrange work for her this time, according to her temperament." ”

Huo Yaowen remembered Huo Xiufen's performance yesterday and laughed: "I chatted with Xiufen yesterday, she was quite introverted, I thought about arranging a clerk's job for her, that is, recording some documents in the office, or sending things, not tired, very leisurely." ”

"This is good, this is the job. Grandma listened to it with satisfaction.

......

It was noon.

Huo's father and Huo's mother came back, and the family had a Chinese meal, so Huo Yaowen hurriedly drove across the sea to Shanghai Street in Kowloon.

I already asked yesterday, Huo Xiufen is now working in the pawn shop of the eldest grandfather.

Entering the Kowloon Prison, Huo Yaowen found that not only Huo Xiufen was there, but Huo Chengguang and his grandfather Huo Zongming were there.

Huo Yaowen greeted with a smile: "Grandpa, third uncle." ”

"Yaowen is here. Huo Zongming was also happy when he saw Huo Yaowen coming.

Huo Chengguang on the side seemed to be a little angry, but he responded with a smile: Yaowen is here.

Huo Xiufen blushed: "Second cousin." ”

Huo Zongming said: "Yaowen came here to work for Xiufen, the little girl's family works in a pawn shop, and it is a little inappropriate to continue for a long time." ”

Huo Yaowen said with a smile: "Well, I still lack manpower over there, that is, I am a clerk in the company, register some information, and then send documents or something, I am not very tired, and I can also exercise the communication with people, I think it is very suitable for Xiufen." ”

Huo Zongming nodded happily: "Okay, this job is good." ”

Huo Xiufen already knew what her job was mainly for yesterday, but she didn't have any expression at this time, she was still blushing, and sat quietly with her head down.

Huo Chengguang on the side hesitated: "Yaowen, the third uncle is here to thank you." ”

Huo Yaowen hurriedly said: "The third uncle is too polite, they are all a family, when I came, Grandma also asked me to communicate with you well, saying that I haven't had much contact for more than ten years, and if the family wants to maintain a good relationship, it must be a long walk around." ”

When Huo Chengguang heard this, he looked a little excited: "Yes, I want to move around more, and I will go to see Erniang in a few days." ”

Huo Chengguang's parents died early, it can be said that he grew up behind Grandma, and he has a deep affection for Grandma, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a mother-son relationship, if it weren't for marrying a daughter-in-law back then, and being deceived with Huo Chengcai after coming to Hong Kong, the relationship would not be estranged.

"Good. Huo Yaowen smiled and suddenly said, "By the way, Uncle San, where do you live now?"

"I live in a tenement building at the back of here. Huo Chengguang said.

Fok Yiuwen said: "Do you have a place to live on Hong Kong Island? My company is near Central on Hong Kong Island. ”

Huo Chengguang hesitated: "This ......"

"Don't live in my old house. Huo Zongming said: "Although my old house is a little road away from Central, it is much stronger than here. ”

Huo Yaowen thought for a while and said: "That's still inconvenient, Xiufen commutes to work alone, it's not safe, or live with me, Tingting, this girl will go home on weekends and stay for two nights, the house has been empty, it's just right for Xiufen to live in, and it's only a twenty-minute drive from the road to Central." ”

"Won't it be too much trouble for you. Huo Chengguang was a little moved, he only had one daughter, so he naturally didn't want her to have a good one.

"What's the trouble with this, it's settled. ”

Huo Yaowen turned his head to look at Huo Xiufen and said, "Xiufen, you go back and pack up your clothes, my cousin will take you home to settle down first, and then go to the company to go around and familiarize yourself with the road conditions and environment." ”

Huo Xiufen glanced at her father Huo Chengguang, and when she saw him smiling and nodding, she also whispered, "Thank you, second cousin." ”

"No thanks, it's all family. Huo Yaowen grinned.
