On September 9, the morning before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Huahu and Wen Cuiping left Macao, returned to Hong Kong, and came to Li Hualong's home.

On this day, Li Yisong and Li Hualong, father and son, did not go out to work, and when Li Huahu and Wen Cuiping came, they were playing badminton in the yard.

"Abba, why are you so good today!" Li Huahu greeted with a smile.

"What kind of Yaxing is playing badminton!" Li Yisong smiled, "I'm a little tired, I'm sweating, stop and rest for a while." ”

"Ah Hu, Cuiping, do you miss your child?" Li Hualong asked with a smile.

"I want to, I don't want to!" Wen Cuiping sighed, with a smile on her face, "Sometimes, think about whether it's worth it to make money so desperately." ”

"Don't be sad, let the three children live with the third brother, I don't worry."

Li Huahu and Wen Cuiping have a total of three children, two sons and a daughter, the eldest son and eldest daughter are now in elementary school, and the second son is a little more than two years old.

"You didn't have three children?" Wen Cuiping glared at her husband in disgust.

"Leaving the children in Hong Kong, but the result of our discussion, the third brother's family has many children, and it is lively, and our children live in three families, which is good for the children's growth. In the future, when you want to have children, you can go back to Hong Kong every day. A round trip from Hong Kong and Macau doesn't take much time. ”

Wen Cuiping didn't answer, looked at Li Hualong and asked, "Third brother, where is Sheng Jiang?" ”

Li Hualong said: "I watched Mr. Sanyu paint in the house. ”。

Li Huahu smiled: "Sheng Jiang is so small, does he understand?" ”

"You underestimate Sheng Jiang, maybe Sheng Jiang will become a great painter when he grows up." Li Hualong smiled and said, "You don't object to Sheng Jiang being a painter, right?" ”

"It depends on whether he has talent in this area, and if he can become a great painter, I will definitely support it. Actually, it's good to be an artist, Sheng Jiang grows up. Don't worry about money at all. Li Huahu smiled, "Let's not talk about it yet, I'll also go and see Mr. Sanyu paint." ”

Li Hualong looked at Li Yisong and said, "Abba, let's stop fighting, let's go into the house and drink tea." ”

"Good!"

After Li Huahu entered the house, he smiled and greeted Sanyu: "Hello, Mr. Chang." ”

"Hello, Mr. Li Huahu." Sanyu smiled, he had met Li Huahu a few times before, and he had also chatted a few words.

Sanyu has a good impression of Li Yisong's family. Especially Li Hualong, he can feel Li Hualong's appreciation for his paintings.

"Daddy!" Li Shengjiang ran to Li Huahu and hugged his father's thigh.

Li Huahu squatted down, hugged Li Shengjiang in his arms, kissed his son on the face, and said with a smile: "Shengjiang, do you want to be a father?" ”

"Yes!" Li Shengjiang chuckled.

"That's good!" Li Huahu said happily and kissed his son on the face.

Li Huahu accompanied him to chat with Sanyu, and he came to the living room to sit on the sofa. chatted with Li Hualong about business matters.

After chatting for a few words, Li Yisong interjected: "You are not vulgar, in front of Mr. Chang, don't talk about business." Mr. Chang. You take a break and come over for some tea. ”

"Okay!" Sanyu is as good as a runner.

On this afternoon, Li Huawen and Zhou Liyun both left work early and after work. They went straight to Li Hualong's house.

"Sheng Quan, Linyu, why didn't they come with you?" Li Yisong asked.

"Linyu hasn't finished school yet. Sheng Quan said that when she got out of school, she would come over together. Li Huawen replied.

"Sheng Quan is still working hard, right?" Li Yisong asked again.

"It's very hard, and in a few years, I can be on my own." Li Huawen was pleased.

"Big brother, how old are you, and now you're thinking about retirement." Li Huahu said with a smile.

"I said that Sheng Quan could stand alone, and I didn't say that I would hand over the company to him." Li Huawen smiled.

"Sheng Quan is twenty-six years old, right?" Li Huahu asked.

"Twenty-six years old, and in a little more than a month, he will be twenty-five years old." Li Huawen said.

"Sheng Quan is not small, it's time to get married. He and his high school girl have been dealing with each other for several years, Huawen, Liyun, you also urge him. Li Yisong said.

"Liyun didn't urge him less." Li Huawen smiled bitterly, "But he said that he is still young and wants to focus on his work and is not in a hurry to get married." ”

"What do you mean by Sheng Quan, riding a donkey to find a horse?" Li Huahu asked jokingly.

"Why do you say that about your nephew?" Li Huawen glared at Li Huahu, pretending to be displeased, "Sheng Quan is like me, and he is very single-minded." ”

Li Huahu smiled noncommittally and changed the topic: "Big brother, this year's Mid-Autumn Festival, have you sent moon cakes to the company's employees?" ”

"If you send it, can you send it, I sent it in previous years, but if I don't send it this year, I definitely can't say it."

Li Huahu smiled and said: "I found that the more generous the boss, the richer he is." ”

"You said the opposite, the richer the boss, the more generous, the poor boss, if you want to be generous, you can't be generous." Li Huawen smiled, "However, it can't be too absolute, many rich businessmen are stingy, like misers, not only very harsh on their employees, but also very stingy with themselves!" ”

That night, under the repeated invitations of Li Yisong and Li Hualong, Sanyu stayed at Li Hualong's house for the night, and the next day, Sanyu and Li Yisong's family will spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

The next day, the Mid-Autumn Festival, Friday, on this day, the school was in class, and the children who entered the school went to school, while Li Yisong and his three sons did not go out to work, and their wives also stayed at home, celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival lively.

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Hualong accompanied Yang Meng for the night.

After lingering passion, Yang Meng snuggled in Li Hualong's arms.

Yang Meng asked, "Ah Long, Mr. Sanyu's paintings, will they really be very valuable in the future?" ”

Li Hualong was stunned when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "Why did you think of asking this question?" ”

"Didn't I hear you say a few times that in the future, a painting by Mr. Sanyu will be able to change a house."

Li Hualong smiled: "Since you have heard what I said, you still ask." ”

Yang Mengjiao said angrily: "I don't have anything to say, okay?" ”

"Okay, you can say whatever your wife wants." Li Hualong smiled and said, "Impressionist oil paintings, you know, right? ”

"Know a little." Yang Meng smiled, "Monet, Picasso." And Van Gogh, their paintings are impressionist, right? ”

"That's right. When a layman looks at an impressionist oil painting, he thinks it is not good-looking, and he thinks that the painter's painting level is very average, but a connoisseur will not see it that way. Oil painting is not photography, and painting it like is not necessarily good. I feel that Mr. Sanyu has some special exceptions, and a great painter must have this quality. I would like to do more exhibitions for Mr. Sanyu in the future, promote his paintings, and package them well. In the future, he will definitely become a world-famous painter. When he is famous, his paintings are naturally valuable. ”

"It's a bit of a hype."

"Sort of. Let's talk about Van Gogh, before he died, his life was down, and there were many well-known painters in the world, who had an unsatisfactory life during his lifetime, and his paintings were not recognized, and after they died. Their paintings are sought after...... The world is impermanent! ”

Li Hualong sighed lightly, smiled mysteriously, and continued: "Mengmeng, imagine it. Within 30 years, a Van Gogh painting can sell for tens of millions of dollars, or even hundreds of millions of dollars, what kind of madness is that. ”

"Wouldn't it?!" Yang Meng was surprised. For her, it is a fantasy for a painting to sell for hundreds of millions of dollars. "How much can Van Gogh's paintings sell for now?"

"The number of Van Gogh's paintings is very small, most of them are stored in museums, and the number of paintings circulating in the market is even less, so the price of Van Gogh's paintings is difficult to say."

"You have a Van Gogh painting in your hand?"

"There's a pair!" Li Hualong said with a smile, "It's a still life painting." ”

"When did you buy it? How much did it cost? Where to put it? Yang Meng asked three questions in a row.

"I bought it the year before last and spent more than 800,000 Hong Kong dollars, and I think it's worth it. Now hanging in room 306, you should have seen it. ”

"I seem to have seen it, more than 800,000 Hong Kong dollars is too expensive!" Yang Meng was slightly surprised, "I can't imagine that painting will sell for tens of millions of dollars in the future." ”

"I'm just a feeling, and it doesn't necessarily come true."

"If your prophecy came true, would you sell that painting?"

"Personally, I like that painting very much, no matter how much it is worth in the future, I will not sell it and leave it as a family heirloom for future generations."

"What if your descendants were going to sell this painting?"

"Children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, and I can't manage so much. Even if I liked the painting, I couldn't let it go with me to the grave. ”

"I remember thinking that "Orchid Pavilion Preface" followed Tang Taizong Li Shimin to the grave, right?"

"That's the way it goes." Li Hualong smiled and kissed Yang Meng's face, "Don't talk about it, let's sleep." ”

"Then turn off the lights, dear." Yang Meng grinned, waited for Li Hualong to turn off the lights, and said, "Good night!" ”

"Good night, baby!"

"Huh!" Yang Meng smiled, "You're all old, and you're still called baby, don't you think it's numb?" ”

"No, I don't. Old men and old ladies in the West, even if they are eighty or ninety years old, don't say words like Darling every day. In this regard, the introverted Easterner should learn from the Westerner, and love to speak out loud. ”

"Love to be spoken out loud...... In the future, this will be your wise saying. Yang Meng said with a smile.

"Later, I'll talk about it later, I'm sleepy."

"Then don't say it, good night!"

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Sanyu maintained his best creative state and was full of passion, creating more than 20 paintings in a little more than a month, most of which were portraits of Li Yisong's family. Li Hualong saw these paintings, he liked them very much, and while appreciating art, he was quite a philistine, always thinking that each painting would sell for tens of millions in the future.

……

In early October, Gemdale Group continued to publish advertisements in Ming Pao and other newspapers for several days for the sale of five plots of land divided by the Navy Dockyard plot.

On October 13, Gemdale Group held a public auction, and five plots of land were bought by Hang Seng Bank, Hongkong Land, HSBC, Hutchison International and Jiuan Group, and the transaction price of these five plots of land was slightly higher than Li Hualong's highest valuation.

These five pieces of land in public auction, the purchase cost is only about 30 million Hong Kong dollars, and finally sold at a sky-high price of 92.6 million Hong Kong dollars, more than twice the profit.

"Aaron, congratulations." Li Huawen smiled and congratulated.

After Li Hualong shook hands with Li Huawen, he sighed: "Big brother, I really didn't expect to be able to sell it at such a high price. Thank you for raising the price for me. ”

"My own brother, what's polite!" Li Huawen said with a smile, "Actually, I have long expected that the transaction price of these five pieces of land will exceed 90 million!" ”

"Really?" Li Hualong said curiously, he felt that the eldest brother's prediction was too bold.

"In the past six months, Hong Kong's housing prices and land prices have risen significantly, exceeding the peak at the end of last year. Coupled with the fact that the location of the Navy Yard is really good, and you proposed 20 buildings, connected by a flyover, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Admiralty has unlimited potential, and maybe Admiralty will surpass Central in the future, I ......"

At this time, someone came to talk to Li Hualong, and Li Huawen also closed his mouth and did not continue. (To be continued......)
