Chapter 19: Riverside Adventure
Maybe it was Hu Zhiyong's first aid method, and Bailey had already woken up before he had walked a few steps. In the midst of the howling and crying, Shi Yinhua came over and took it and put it on the ground to support her, crying with her with tears.
"Bailey, you have to be strong! You know, this is the only place you're familiar with, and you can't wait for it to get dark and not store this batch of things in! Hu Zhiyong was very anxious, and in his persuasion, he told the stakeholders.
Bailey nodded sensibly and sobbed, got up and wiped her tears and called a taxi. After depositing the things in the bank, Bailey began to inquire about her uncle's family. The owner of the bank, hearing that Bailey was the niece of the Swiss franc, personally came out and took her into the reception room.
"Miss Bailey, there is no need to be sad about your uncle's family, more than seventy percent of the bank has gone bankrupt in the past three years. Alas, the upper strata of the Great Depression suffered economic losses, and it was difficult for civilians to even fill their stomachs! This Mr. Hu, you have deposited your gold and silver here, I wonder what your plans are? Faced with this young god of wealth, the bank manager was tempted and decided to find out, which might bring great benefits to his banking industry.
"I want to buy a piece of land, and I want to get a passport to live here. Of course, if Mr. Manager can help, I will sell the jewelry and deposit it in your bank. "Hu Zhiyong is very shrewd, he knows that gold is deposited, and jewelry must be disposed of. The jewels, in particular, were worth far more than gold.
"Coincidentally, as long as you make a copy of the visa, I can get you a green certificate. Of course I have to charge you a certain fee! "The manager is cunning, and he does this to reassure Hu and bring benefits to the bank.
"Really? I need a green certificate for one hundred and fifty people, and if you can do it, I'll pay you! Hu Zhiyong knew that the opportunity was rare, and he didn't care about spending some money.
"How about thisβin three batches?" The manager felt that the quantity was too large, but he was reluctant to give up the better deal.
"Hahahaha! Deal! β
In the first batch, Hu Zhiyong only applied for visas for himself and the Shi family sisters. He didn't expect that he could get a permanent green certificate within three days after paying only a thousand oceans.
Regarding the land, the manager immediately put down his work and found the Land Bureau with Hu Zhiyong. Close to the urban area, 500 acres of land 1.5 million oceans will be in hand, and the water and electricity facilities are complete.
"Mr. Manager, don't bother the two masters, simply, you can find a construction company for me. I'm going to look at the design of the neighborhood before I talk about the architecture. With this enthusiastic manager, Hu Zhiyong is determined to use money to open the way and spell out his own circle.
"Okay, I'll call you back tomorrow morning!" The two shook hands and said goodbye, and Bailey led the group towards their hometown. I have to say that the traffic situation in Los Angeles is really good, and I returned to Bailey's hometown for a dollar.
The house here has been auctioned off for debt. Bailey cried again, reluctant to leave her hometown. Seeing a group of yellow-haired and black-glassed people arrive, the people of Riverside Bailey's hometown all ran over to watch. A young Caucasian man walked up to Bailey and shouted in surprise, "Old classmate, is it really you?" β
"You're Carl?" Bailey vaguely remembers that the young man was her table mate in middle school.
"YES, YOUR UNCLE HAS A DAUGHTER WHO HAS JUST GRADUATED FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MEDICAL SCHOOL AND CAN'T FIND A PLACE TO LIVE BECAUSE SHE HAS NO MONEY, SO SHE RENTS MY HOUSE FOR A WHILE." Carl said happily and invited Bailey to his house to meet his sister.
"Darya? Is it really Darya? Bailey was overjoyed and grabbed Carl's arm and asked again.
"Old classmate, can I lie to you?" Carl was very enthusiastic, greeted Hu Zhiyong and the others one by one, and led the way towards his house.
About a mile later, Bailey cried out when she saw a young woman, "Darya, my sister! β
"Bailey!" The two women wailed and cried, hugging tightly for a long time without stopping. Hu Zhiyong coughed helplessly, and Bailey introduced the people around her to her sister.
"Mr. Hu, thank you for saving my Bailey." Darya bowed deeply and politely in English.
"Miss Darya, since you and Bailey are sisters, we are family. Let's go, I hope to get to the city and find a hotel to stay in and talk about it? Hu Zhiyong's English was pure, and Darya looked at the small man who was not handsome in surprise, thinking that Bailey and he were married.
βYESγβ
After booking a room at one of the most beautiful hotels, everyone had their first meal after entering Los Angeles. Luckily, it's close to Chinatown, and the owner of the restaurant is a Guangzhou owner.
"Hello!" The owner of the hotel walked over and introduced himself to Hu Zhiyong, who was dining: "My name is Zhou Fushun, and my hometown is from Yangjiang, Guangzhou. You're from Tohoku, right? Are you here for business orβ"
"Do business, and just apply for a green certificate. Boss Zhou, how is business here? Hu Zhiyong came out with a few good cigarettes, which was a box of cigars and let it go.
"Alas, the Great Depression is currently a mouthful of food. Do you live in the tavern opposite? Zhou Fushun was surprised, it was the best restaurant in Los Angeles, and a night stay was almost a day's income for him.
"Yes." Hu Zhiyong lit a fire, and the two began to talk about the island nation's attack on the northeast. When he heard that Hu Zhiyong was going to buy a large amount of food, machinery, and electrical appliances, he excitedly said to this rich young man: "How about I run errands for you?" As long as you have money, things are cheap! β
"Okay, you contact the source of goods for me, and I will personally negotiate the business, and then give you a commission." Hu Zhiyong was in need of someone to come out, and he sighed in his heart that the opportunity was too good, and he could meet warm-hearted people everywhere.
Back at the hotel, Hu Zhiyong took off his clothes and prepared to take a hot shower, but Bailey walked in and begged him to take her to Zhuanghe again.
"I got a green certificate here, and I bought another 500 acres of land, you know. Listen to me, run well here, and I'll be back here sooner or later. Hu Zhiyong is very helpless, this little girl is very stubborn.
"If you want to keep me, you promise me one thing first!" Bailey blushed, hooked her head and glanced at Hu Zhiyong from the corner of her eye.
"You say." Hu Zhiyong saw that things had taken a turn for the better, and hurriedly agreed.
"Marry me!"
Hu Zhiyong jumped up in fright: "Little girl, you are only seventeen years old, and I am only eighteen years old!" β
"I don't care." Bai Li rushed over and hugged Hu Zhiyong, her face pressed tightly against the warm chest: "You can ask for me, even if I want to be your mistress!" β
Hu Zhiyong hugged Bailey lovingly, held her face and said, "You are a great beauty, you will definitely be able to find a good husband in the future." In addition, with your sister here, I am ready to invest in a hospital. β
"Don't you like me?" Bailey almost burst into tears again: "Okay, from now on, we will go our separate ways, and I will leave you now!" Bailey pushed Hu Zhiyong away, and was about to go out with tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Okay, I promise you!" Hu Zhiyong gritted his teeth and hurriedly spoke.
"You're lying to me!" Bailey turned around: "If you're sincere, tonight, tonight." She couldn't go on, and whispered with a red face: "Just keep the door for me!" β
"You don't think about it anymore?" Hu Zhiyong was surprised, how could this girl be so bold.
"I'm going to be the first to eat you!" Bailey snickered, ran out of the room, and grimaced.
Hu Zhiyong was thinking about what Zhou Fushun said, "Since it occupies seafood resources, we should choose the iron box canning production line." Tinplate, pressure cookers, abrasives, electric welding, and printing equipment are almost unattended here, and you can buy them in large quantities and hoard them to consume slowly. β
Hu Zhiyong thought to himself: "Ten years after the little devil and the M Guoyan started a war, this period of time is absolutely safe. "Canned food production is not only suitable for seafood, but also for pigs, beef, sheep, chickens, ducks and goose meats.
After thinking about it, Hu Zhiyong decided to do a big job. However, this requires technology, and four canning lines require the employment of no less than ten technicians.
With doubts, Hu Zhiyong went to visit the owner of the restaurant again.
"Ten people? Chinatown can make canned food, I'll pick you thirty people, no problem! We are currently in the midst of the Great Depression, and many families are even having problems with their lives. The salary will definitely not be high, and thirty people will soon make you profitable. Zhou Fushun enthusiastically gave Hu Zhiyong an idea, and quietly told him: "I am already optimistic about a bankrupt cannery, the equipment is very novel, it is a 300-person factory. His offer was two hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver, and I gave him only one hundred and fifty thousand. β
"Really?" Hu Zhiyong said eagerly: "Let's go, you and I will go and have a look now, money is not a problem." β
"Little old watch, you can't be so anxious about doing business, otherwise you will spend money in vain. It doesn't matter how late it is a few days, how much can you sell if you save 100,000 taels? Zhou Fushun saw Hu Zhiyong's immaturity and instructed him on how to reduce prices in business.
Hu Zhiyong smiled, but he didn't have time here. Zhou Fushun had no choice but to follow him all the way to the door of the cannery.
The tall white man Scola Hill was very happy with the arrival of Hu Zhiyong and Zhou Fushun, and led them to visit the entire factory. Hu Zhiyong asked in surprise: "These devices are all new, why don't you continue to do them?" β
"The bank went bankrupt, who do I sell the cans to?"
"If you can contact me with five hundred tons of tinplate, I will eat your factory, and I will ask you thirty skilled technical masters." Hu Zhiyong knew that in another year, Roosevelt would come to power, and the economy would soon recover. Take this opportunity to buy more raw materials, which can give you a lot of money in the future.
"Five hundred tons?" Scola Mountain was taken aback: "The tinplate is there, are you sure you want five hundred tons?" β
"Of course." Hu Zhiyong smiled slightly: "I'm not long-winded, your factory and mine have a fixed price, I can pay you the silver ticket now!" β
"180,000, I really won't buy it anymore!" Scola Mountain said distressedly: "I have lost enough! β
"I'll give you 200,000 yuan, how about you work for me for a year? Of course, if you want to keep going, I'll pay you more. Hu Zhiyong's preferential conditions made Scola Mountain happy at once, and he hugged Hu Zhiyong and said loudly: "Okay, I accept your conditions!" β
"In addition, choose fifteen good masters to go with you, and you can decide your own salary. From today onwards, you are the owner of the cannery again! Before leaving, Hu Zhiyong took out the deposit, and asked him to get the tinplate as soon as possible, and sent people to start dismantling the equipment here and transporting it to the dock for loading.
"Boss, do you want a car?" Seeing that Hu Zhiyong was leaving, Scola Mountain hurriedly asked.
"How many? What is the condition? What model is it? Hu Zhiyong almost burst out laughing. He needs to buy some cars, and he hasn't had time to take care of it.
"300 new cars, only half the original price." Scola Hill was excited again, this young man was really rich. Quite an appetite!
"Four tons, two and a half tons, okay, you can take me now!" Hu Zhiyong was so happy that he forgot his agreement with Bailey. The three men were driving in a private car to California.
