Chapter Eighty-Nine: Interesting Tall Mountain
"Pounds, now the standard is one pound for sixteen Hong Kong dollars, and if you pay one pound, I will have to find you twelve Hong Kong dollars.
It would be more convenient if you paid in shillings, only five shillings!"
Uncle said with a smile.
There is another income to be recorded in the account, or the income has increased several times compared to the previous time, how can you not laugh.
Wang Xin didn't have a small denomination of shillings and pennies in his hand, only more than 100 pounds and more than 1,000 dollars, so he could only take a small denomination of one pound and hand it over.
"Uncle, I don't have a shilling in my hand, so I paid it with one pound, you just need to find Hong Kong dollars!"
"Ahh
The mountain, the mountain is coming out, there is a visitor!"
The old man took the banknotes, got up and walked to the house, and greeted the people in the house.
At this time, the value of the Hong Kong dollar was still quite high, and the monthly salary of ordinary workers was only about 30 Hong Kong dollars.
Twelve Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to nearly half a month's salary, so naturally I have to go back to the house to find money.
As for the Hong Kong dollar being so valuable, whether Wang Xin was cheated, of course he was cheated, but he didn't pay back the money, did he?
Everyone, if you like me, how can you call it a pit?
"Eh, here you are, are you going to take the car?"
Listening to the uncle's greeting, his son in the house, who was named Dashan, immediately pushed the cart out excitedly.
There are really few people on their side who are willing to spend money on a car, and everyone would rather take two extra steps.
Because compared to spending money, walking, a little more physically necessary, seems to them not to be a problem at all.
Moreover, it doesn't look like there are many people who can afford to take a car.
Therefore, only every time a mainlander smuggles here, one or two people with looser hands will take his car.
"Yes, it's me, I'm going to the Central and Western Side.
Wait a minute, I'll find the address!"
Wang Xin really didn't have time to look at the contents of the box just now, so he quickly sat down on the side and squatted down, opened the cowhide box handed to him by his aunt and grandmother, and found the letter inside.
A note with the address on it is placed on the top of the box, so you can see it as soon as you open it.
Wang Xin said according to the note: "Well, we are going to Huilin Law Firm on Xixiang Avenue in the Central and Western District."
yes, you can just send me over there!"
"Law firm, are you here to inherit the estate?"
Gao Daniu immediately rubbed over with some excitement and asked with gossip on his face.
Wang Xin was stunned for a moment, raised his head and hesitated: "It should be able to be counted."
But how do you know? Just because I went to the law firm?"
"Yes, you don't know, there have been several people who have gone to the law firm to inherit the inheritance this year!
A lot of people who come to Hong Kong Island have a lot of money but no relatives to inherit it, and they don't want to give it to the government like this, so they specially find some relatives who are a little farther away to inherit it.
Which family are you a relative of?
Let me tell you, it's not blowing, there is no big and small wealthy family on Hong Kong Island that I don't know!
That ......"
Before Gao Dashan finished speaking, he was slapped on the back of the head by his father.
"Dead boy, what nonsense is he blowing all day long, and he dares to show off in front of others when he reads the news from those gossip news all day long.
Here, lad, this is twelve Hong Kong dollars looking for you.
This kid in my family likes to watch the gossip news that is true and false when he has nothing to do on weekdays.
Don't believe everything he tells you when you go back, just listen to it as a joke.
How can we, the poor and remote people, know about the affairs of other people's wealthy families, whether you say it or not, you just listen to others!"
As he spoke, he turned his head and shouted angrily: "Why don't you send the guests to the Central and Western Districts, waiting for me to deliver them!"
The change of face can be said to be quite rapid and natural.
"Got it, Dad, don't keep hitting me on the back of the head, you're stupid when you turn around, you keep it!
People have said that they have said that they often hit the back of the head and are easy to be stupid, and I didn't study well when I was a child, it must be because of you!"
Gao Dashan touched the back of his head with some complaint, and then he was ready to get up and pedal on the bicycle.
"Hey!
When you were in school, you didn't learn to dig birds' nests and climb trees all day long, and now you blame me!
When you come back, I won't teach you a lesson!
Give me a good ride, and if I get broken when I come back, see if I don't kill you.
Don't go yet!"
Uncle Gao, that's very angry.
Gao Dashan quickly pedaled the bicycle when he heard this, and then beckoned Wang Xin to get into his back seat.
Wang Xin looked at the bicycle a little apprehensively.
He hadn't ridden this bike for many years, let alone jumped on the back seat, and he was really uncomfortable for a while, and he made a mental preset for a long time before jumping on it.
I didn't expect to be rusty for so many years, but the technique is still good, and I didn't knock down the bike after jumping on it!
Next, there is the pain and suffering.
Half an hour, nearly an hour of bumpy dirt roads, even with a soft sponge underneath the bike, it wasn't easy.
I have to say that sometimes it is really easy to be thrifty and thrifty, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift.
Accustomed to sitting on soft seats, accustomed to sitting on extremely smooth roads, and then going to ride this bumpy and particularly awkward bicycle, it is indeed a bit difficult.
Fortunately, this tall mountain should be a chatterbox, and he kept talking about the gossip on this side of the port city when he was riding.
Wang Xin listened to the gossip, and he could also distract some of his spirit, so that he would not be so painful.
Of course, it's just that it's not so painful, not that it's not painful.
It was better to wait until after crossing the dirt road and entering the relatively flat road.
Entering the main road, it took more than an hour to ride, passing through several lanes and several main streets, and only then did I arrive at a street that was not particularly prosperous.
That's Saigo Avenue.
Xixiang Avenue can only be regarded as a remote place in the central and western districts, and it is not too prosperous, but there are many law firms here, so there are a lot of people coming and going on weekdays.
Gao Dashan was quite familiar with this side, and within a few minutes, he brought Wang Xin smoothly to Huilin Law Firm.
"Little brother, it's hard for me to send it in here, you can come down here!
Do you want me to go in with you and help you build up?"
Gao Dashan said enthusiastically.
On the surface, he was very enthusiastic to help, but in fact, he was a little curious about what it was like to inherit the inheritance.
"No need, I'm really bothering you!
I'll just go in myself!"
Of course, Wang Xin didn't understand the deep meaning of Gao Dashan, but he was a little embarrassed to trouble, so he immediately refused after getting out of the car.
"Alright then, be careful!"
Gao Dashan sighed in frustration, hesitated, and reluctantly turned his head to look back.
It wasn't until Wang Xin walked into the law firm with his suitcase that he had no choice but to pedal his bicycle and leave.
It seems that I can't see how to inherit the inheritance.
