The family soon learned the good news that my father's application was approved and he would be able to return home around April next year.

It's almost the end of the year now. Because of this, my father will be very busy for the next period of time, and he may not be able to go home for the New Year at the end of the year.

Although it was a bit of a pity, the whole family was still happy, especially Mom and Anna.

Mom is a blind worship of my father, anyway, she thinks it's good no matter what he does, and my husband is the first in the world.

Anna knows her father's ability, and even if she doesn't develop according to what she already knows in the future, she will definitely not be far behind, so she will also put a hundred hearts.

It's grandma, who was happy at first, but later knew that Anna's father had a lot of ideas, and gave an idle iron job that could have been given to him to come back and settle into the government department to another person who changed jobs together. It's just that grandma also knows that her son An Guoqiang, although he is very filial, but he won't listen to what he has made, and he will not listen to it, and the chatter will pass.

Now that it's almost the end of the year, Anna is waiting for her dad to come home, and she is also wondering if she can think of some more money, so that when her dad comes back, no matter what he does, with financial support, it will always be easier to get started.

In the past, when my father first started his business, Anna was not yet born, and although she later became a business tycoon, I heard him mention that it was not easy at first.

Although I made some money before, I can live a small life for a while, but it really doesn't come in handy.

But what is the way to get money quickly? Anna pondered for a few days, but she couldn't think of it, so forget it. On this day, when I went to work in the garment factory and helped Master He send a finished sample, I saw that Zang Chunlan coming to the workshop and showing off a watch on her wrist to the female workers.

"Oh, this watch is really good, it looks rare, where did it come from?" asked a female worker in the workshop who usually has a good mouth.

"Imported watches brought from Hong Kong! gold-plated! fully automatic! no need to wind up every day!"

Zang Chunlan rolled up her sleeves and showed the female workers with a spring breeze. The female workers gathered around to admire, and after expressing their admiration and envy, Zang Chunlan went out satisfied.

"It's really shameless," as soon as she left, the female worker who was a sycophant just now said, "Didn't Director Zeng go to Hong Kong some time ago?

The female workers whispered and laughed.

Sister Bi came in and told everyone not to talk nonsense. The women slowly stopped talking, and the sound of sewing machines tapping and tapping quickly stepped on the thread sounded in the workshop.

It was just a small episode, but it unexpectedly reminded Anna.

Anna suddenly remembered that at this time, Hong Kong was recovering from the world financial crisis in the late 70s, and gradually became a world financial and economic center, and the stock market had also recovered from the collapse and prospered, which lasted for several years.

It should be from now on, from less than 1,000 points, to nearly 4,000 points. If you buy any stock with your eyes closed and leave it alone, you can at least double or triple it in a year or two.

The reason why Anna knows about the golden age of the Hong Kong stock market before she was born is because she used to have a godfather surnamed Jin.

My godfather, whose English name is Jim, is a Hong Konger who was born and raised in a shoebox house in Sham Shui Po, Hong Kong's largest and oldest slum. Godfather's background is poor, he has no father, and his mother raised him by picking up rags. Relying on his own talent and hard work, he escaped the harsh living conditions of refugees, criminals, dentists and prostitutes, worked part-time to study at night college, obtained a night college diploma that was not recognized, and finally found a job in the Kowloon Stock Exchange in Hong Kong at that time, and began his career.

This godfather is a close friend of Anna's father and a godfather in the financial investment world. Godfather has been unruly all his life, never married, and has no children, treats Anna as his own daughter, and likes to brag to her about how he struggled to get ahead, thanks to him, Anna is very familiar with the golden age of the Hong Kong stock market in the 80s.

Anna remembers very clearly that her godfather once boasted to her, saying that when she first entered the industry, it was just in time for the stock market to begin to recover and rise, and a large amount of hot money from all over the world began to pour into Hong Kong. At that time, it was still the beginning of the recovery period, and many small and medium-sized investors were still afraid to start with the previous stock market crash. He was optimistic about one of them, and took the risk of adding the maximum leverage of the 5,000 Hong Kong dollars he had saved from his part-time job a few years ago to buy all of them from his mother, but in three months, the stock rose nearly four times, and he felt that it was almost over, and he took profits, and this one earned nearly 80,000 or 90,000 yuan.

Within two weeks of his selling, the stock began to fall off a cliff, trapping countless investors who jumped in later, and until years later, the stock price still did not return to the highest point at that time.

This lone godfather not only dug the first pot of gold, but also the first venture capital in his life, and won a big victory. Godfather is very proud of this history, and often shows it in front of Anna, so Anna knows it very well.

Counting the time, it's almost this time.

Could she go to Hong Kong and replicate the investment that her godfather is most likely preparing to make?

Anna was thrilled by this bold idea, and she lost her mind to go to work, so she went home and pondered all night.

The biggest problem is how to get to Hong Kong as soon as possible.

Reform and opening up has brought about the emancipation of the people's minds, and the tide of going abroad is beginning to surge, but now, it is not easy to go abroad, and even if an individual gets a passport, it is very difficult to get a visa. No matter where you go, you must first detour to Hong Kong, so the quota for going to Hong Kong is even tighter, there are many applicants, and there are few allocations.

If you do it yourself, when the formalities come down, the daylily will also be cold.

It has to be passed as soon as possible.

Anna thought about it all night, couldn't suppress this strong thought, and the next day told her mother that she wanted to go to Hong Kong.

My mother doesn't worship foreign flattery at all, and she has no interest in going to Hong Kong. Seeing that she wanted to go, he asked her to call her father to discuss.

Anna ran to the telephone office, queued for half an hour, and it was her turn to make a long-distance call to her father, saying that she wanted to go to Hong Kong to play, and asked him if he could help her get the formalities done as soon as possible.

An Guoqiang on the other end of the phone was surprised at first, and he didn't know why his daughter, who had just arrived home, suddenly wanted to go to Hong Kong to play.

After believing that Anna was his daughter in his heart, and feeling sorry for her experience, An Guoqiang felt a desire to protect and pamper this daughter who was not a few years younger than his wife. Now she just wants to go to Hong Kong to play, it's not very difficult, and it is the first time she has asked herself after she arrived home, An Guoqiang didn't even hesitate, and immediately agreed, saying that he would find a way to help her get the formalities out as soon as possible, let her go to Hong Kong to play around, and let her wait for her news.

Anna went home. A few days later, my father called my mother's school and asked Anna to send the materials she needed to the place where she had applied for her passport, saying that she had already contacted the people inside and promised to speed it up.

Half a month later, on the last working day of the holiday before the end of the year, Anna got her passport. My father contacted her and said that a semi-official delegation from Beijing was invited to Hong Kong for a half-month inspection activity, and she could go back with this delegation, and the visa was handled internally, which was very convenient.

Things are going very well.

This year, my father never came home. Anna spent the first Spring Festival with her family after coming here with her mother and grandmother Xiaoguang.

The purpose of Anna's trip to Hong Kong is to make money, so naturally she has to bring the principal. At present, the customs limit can only take out a maximum of 2,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is equivalent to more than 600 yuan. Anna found an old gold shop and asked the old goldsmith to make herself a thick local tyrant gold necklace of nearly 60 grams, which was worth almost 3,000 yuan according to the gold price of 48 yuan per gram.

There has always been a custom of men and women setting up a custom for men to give gold to women after their relatives, and those who have money will make the right rings, and those who have no money will also make the right gold cloves. The old goldsmith had been working for half his life, and it was the first time he had encountered such a tyrant customer, and he was almost frightened at that time. Anna gave him a deposit, and the old goldsmith believed it, and typed out the necklace according to Anna's request.

After the Lantern Festival of the first lunar month, Anna said goodbye to her mother and grandmother Xiaoguang, rushed to Shanghai Airport under the envious eyes of her neighbors, met with the members of the delegation, put the necklace in her sweater and passed through the customs smoothly, and boarded the plane to Hong Kong via the Shanghai-Hong Kong route.

……

In the early 80s, Hong Kong's economic recovery began to reach its peak, and there was a scene of prosperity everywhere, and Anna felt like she had suddenly fallen into an old Hong Kong movie, a bit of a dream.

In addition to their business, the members of the accompanying delegation basically brought their relatives and friends to buy two large and two small pieces to take home. Two large color TV refrigerators, two small watches, and four-speaker tape recorders. It's all imported goods, and you can't buy them in China, and you can save a lot of tax exemption just after they come out. When they arrived, they were busy with their own business, and no one paid attention to what Anna was doing.

Anna speaks English and is familiar with Hong Kong. Thirty years later, it's not much the same as it is now, but some of the old businesses are still in the same area. After settling down, she first bought a newspaper to check the stock market, and sure enough, the stock market is only more than 900 points now, and the stock she wants to buy has not yet begun to rise. After separating from the delegation, Anna went straight to a precious metal recycling pawn shop in Queensway, mortgaged it with a gold necklace, and got almost 80,000 Hong Kong dollars.
