427, Xiaoxiong
Running into the middle of the mountain, the field of vision suddenly widened, the traffic lane seemed less crowded, rolled down the window and blew the summer breeze on the seaside, Xiong Baizhou thought to himself that Hong Kong's treatment of the rich and ordinary people is really two extremes.
From Lo Wu Pass to Repulse Bay, you have to pass through Tai Po District and Sham Shui, both of which are predominantly poor, full of pigeon cages and dilapidated houses, but once you pass through Central, the hustle and bustle of Victoria Harbour is like a prosperous life, and the street lights in the villa area are as gentle as starlight.
"Ding-dong. ”
In order to show politeness and respect, Xiong Baizhou came down to ring the doorbell with a gift in person.
The one who opened the door was Guo Zijing's bodyguard, he was very familiar with Xiong Baizhou, although his face was surprised, he immediately bowed down and immediately called the housekeeper on the walkie-talkie to report the situation.
Although he knew that it was impossible for the Guo family to stop Xiong Baizhou outside, Xiong Baizhou did not make an appointment in advance after all, so the process had to be followed, and the bodyguards had no right to let Xiong Baizhou directly enter the door.
Unless, Xiong Baizhou really has an official marriage letter with a certain Miss Guo.
"Why are you here?"
It was Miss Guo Er who ran out to greet her, and she liked it between her eyebrows and eyes under the light, and she was also missing Xiong Baizhou.
"I've come to visit your father. Xiong Baizhou told half the truth.
"He was drinking tea with my third uncle. ”
Guo Zijing took Xiong Baizhou's arm and walked into the villa, Guo Xiaosheng was chatting with a middle-aged man with a similar face in the tea house.
This villa is more than 1,500 square meters, and it is not surprising that there is a tea house to enjoy. The design of the tea house is antique, a few tassels are hung in the eaves, the color of the tea table of yellow rosewood is restrained, but it can faintly reflect the bright light illuminated by the glass lamp, there are several futons around the coffee table, and there is a landscape painting hanging in the south direction of the house, and the faint incense is mixed with the fragrance of tea, which is refreshing.
"Bai Zhou is here, this is your third uncle. Guo Xiaosheng put down the teacup and said with a smile.
"Third uncle. ”
Xiong Baizhou shouted from the good logistics.
Guo Xiaolian, the helmsman of Jiuli Electronics, is also the only company that inherits the name of "Jiuli", and the others, whether it is Henderson Land or Jubilee Freight, have not obtained the naming rights of Jiuli.
"This is Xiong Baizhou?"
is different from Guo Xiaojiang's seriousness and Guo Xiaosheng's generosity, but Guo Xiaolian has a trace of impetuousness and rashness on his face, and he can't expect all the rich second generations in Hong Kong to be serious about business and be good at business.
Guo Bingxiang has the eldest son and the second son to inherit and carry forward the silver jubilee and Henderson is already very remarkable, from the probability theory of the third son Guo Xiaolian is not surprising to lose the extravagance, and now the Guo family and the actress have the most scandals.
In the future, Jubilee Cargo and Henderson Land still exist, but Jiuli Electronics has not heard any news.
"The facial features are not bad, and the temperament is also very good. Guo Xiaolian commented.
"Thank you, Uncle San. ”
Guo Zijingjiao said with a smile, thanking Xiong Baizhou.
"Bai Zhou came up for tea. Guo Xiaosheng pointed to a futon and said.
"Good. Xiong Baizhou answered, and then handed over the gift first: "This is the manuscript of Master Guan Shanyue of the Lingnan School of Painting. ”
"Guan Shanyue's paintings?"
Guo Xiaosheng and Guo Xiaolian's faces flashed a trace of surprise, Guan Shanyue is a famous contemporary Chinese painting master, an outstanding representative of the Lingnan School, the Great Hall of the People huge Chinese painting is so delicate is his handiwork.
This is a picture of cedar plum blossoms, everyone knows that Guan Shanyue likes to paint plums, and many of the manuscripts are plum blossoms.
"The branches are like iron, the flowers are like fire, the majestic and heavy, the beauty and elegance are indeed the true works of Guan Zepei, but it is not easy. Unexpectedly, it was Guo Xiaolian who took the initiative to praise him.
Guan Shanyue is also called Guan Zepei, because she is too old, she rarely writes, so now you can still get Master Guan's manuscripts, especially plum blossom paintings, in addition to the relationship is very deep, other money can't buy it, so Guo Xiaolian said it's really not easy.
The works of the Lingnan School are very popular in Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and other regions, especially Guan Shanyue, who is also a famous figure in the history of modern Chinese painting, and has a high value for preservation and appreciation.
Xiong Baizhou invited Ye Rongquan and Zhao Yeming to come forward, and only then did he buy this picture in the hands of his daughter, and the price of others was not high, and the purpose was only to deepen the relationship and broaden the contacts in Yuecheng.
"Bai Zhou bothered. Guo Xiaosheng smiled and asked the maid to put away the painting, and it could be seen that he liked the gift very much.
Xiong Baizhou sat on the futon and took the initiative to take over the task of making tea, brewing high and brewing low, doing it slowly and rhythmically, Guo Xiaolian glanced at Guo Xiaosheng, Guo Xiaosheng nodded with satisfaction.
"Xiong Baizhou is good at everything, this young man is really nothing to find fault with when he is his son-in-law, it's just, just"
Guo Xiaosheng sighed in his heart, he was still talking to Guo Xiaolian about these family matters just now, Guo Xiaolian is not good at business, but he is his own brother, and because of the early division, there is no inheritance competition between them.
Therefore, there are some things that are inconvenient to tell my ex-wife, but I talk to my two brothers the most.
Guo Xiaosheng and Xiong Baizhou talked about some business matters, and now Xiong Baizhou will not say the plan of Yinxin Building.
"Looks like you're going to drink tea, too. ”
At this time, Guo Xiaolian, who had been observing silently, suddenly said.
"Drink a little once in a while. ”
Xiong Baizhou was distributing tea, responded calmly, and then gently placed the teacup and cup holder in front of Guo Xiaolian.
"Third uncle, please. ”
"Hmm. Guo Xiaolian took a sip and drank it all, then played with the teacup, as if talking to himself: "Tea is a good thing, since you usually like to drink it, you naturally know that strong tea relieves hangover, weak tea nourishes the mind, flower tea clears the stomach, and clear tea filters dust." ”
Xiong Baizhou nodded, he couldn't figure out what Guo Xiaolian said for the time being, so he was silent and didn't respond much.
"Oolong Dahongpao, Huangshan Sumao Peak, South Pig Tieguanyin, North Changqi Mountain Cloud, East Longjing Green, West Yellow Mosaic Forest, these teas have their own characteristics, but also their own benefits, but people who really love tea will only like one, never heard of anyone who likes two different teas. ”
Xiong Baizhou understands now, this is a metaphor for the two sisters Guo Zixian and Guo Zijing through tea, these two have different personalities, and they are really two completely different tastes.
"Therefore, I think that people who like two kinds of tea either explain in advance that they are just quenching their thirst, or they are just a tea-loving liar. ”
After Guo Xiaolian finished speaking, his eyes looked directly at Xiong Baizhou.
There was some quiet in the teahouse, Guo Xiaosheng didn't expect his younger brother to make the words clear so quickly, and he was about to round the field when he suddenly remembered the sound of the phone, and the maid came over and said, "Mr. Guo, your phone." ”
Guo Xiaosheng stood up, glanced at Guo Xiaolian and Xiong Baizhou, and stopped talking.
"You have been so polite to share the tea just now, I should pay tribute as the host, please drink a cup of tea. Guo Xiaolian raised the teapot and said.
Xiong Baizhou was very polite, and raised the teacup with both hands.
"Boom. ”
The white steaming brown tea slowly flowed out of the spout of the thin kettle, and suddenly a burst of fragrance emanated.
It's just that Guo Xiaolian didn't stop after this cup of tea was full, and the high-temperature tea instantly overflowed and flowed into Xiong Baizhou's hands.
Guo Zijing was about to go up to stop her, but she didn't expect Xiong Baizhou to suddenly stretch out a hand to stop her.
Letting the hot tea flow into the back of his hand, although his skin had been burned red, Xiong Baizhou's eyes were calm, and his posture did not change, and he quietly watched the pot of tea completely poured.
In Guo Xiaolian's surprised eyes, Xiong Baizhou brought the teacup to his mouth.
"Uncle Xie divides the tea. ”
