Chapter 255, Causeway Bay
Causeway Bay Port is one of the most prosperous and famous areas in Hong Kong except for Central and the Western District.
Although it is still seven or eight years, Causeway Bay is already a piece of land. Walking on the street can be said to be crowded and crowded. The street is surrounded by many shops, all kinds of snacks, restaurants, luxury jewelry stores, in the words of the old boy, here just collect protection fees to pay.
The piece of land that Lei Weidong grabbed from Uncle Li Si's mouth is here, this piece of land is only 7,000 square meters, and now it is almost more than 8,000 square meters, which is currently the most valuable land in Lei Weidong's hands.
Later, Hong Kong real estate had a crazy Lei Weidong who knew it, so after buying this piece of land, he spent a lot of money to buy the surrounding shops and expand the land as much as possible.
In 2010, the price of shops here could create a sky-high price of 400-5 million Hong Kong dollars per square meter, which is thousands of times higher than now, and the housing prices in the capital are far worse than those in Hong Kong.
Minister Li and others, under the leadership of Lei Weidong, soon came to Causeway Bay.
At this time, the construction site has been closed with a fence, and warning signs have been put up to indicate that this is already a construction site, so that passers-by should pay attention to safety.
At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the construction site, Lei Weidong arranged for 100 retired soldiers to patrol the construction site 24 hours a day in two shifts.
There is no way that the community forces in the Causeway Bay area are rampant, and people from all walks of life are constantly fighting here for profit
The most prosperous areas in Hong Kong are Central, Eastern, and Western Districts, because they are located in the center of the city, the land price and consumption level are extremely high, and they have eliminated some people who are mixed with dragons and snakes, in addition, the British pay great attention to the security of these districts, equipped with a large number of police resources, PTU military and police are almost 24 hours a day of non-stop patrol, once illegal acts are found, they must be severely punished, and they have persisted for a long time, and there is no community active here.
And there are no such good benefits in his districts, especially Wan Chai, Causeway Bay, and Yau Tsim Wang, because of the proximity to the city center, land prices, and relatively low consumption levels, they are the favorite of the underworld, and club activities are frequent, and all kinds of blackmail, fights, fraud, and bullying dominate the market are simply too common.
The reason why Chen Haonan is famous is because he is the leader of Causeway Bay, and Causeway Bay is the best site in Hongxing, and it is also the most fiercely competitive territory with Dongxing.
However, even the most rampant society has to back down in the face of 100 veterans, knowing that although those gangsters are numerous, they are all rabble. Although these PLA uncles did not have guns in their hands, soldiers with only electric batons were not something that these people could resist.
In addition, there is not much oil and water in the construction site now, mainly because there is no protection fee for people, so after several battles, those societies have wisely given up here. However, this is only temporary, people's desires are endless, and I believe that after the building is built and the shops are settled, there will be a dragon fight.
It's a long way off, let's talk about the situation in front of us.
After a group of people got out of the car, Mr. Wang's eyes immediately focused on the rows of prefabricated houses standing there, with white bottoms, blue tops, and boxy things, which looked quite comfortable.
"Let's go inside the mobile house first and see how it goes." Mr. Wang couldn't wait to see it clearly.
"Yes! There's already someone living there, so it's time to go and have a look! Regarding Mr. Wang's eager expression, Lei Weidong smiled and nodded in agreement, in his previous life, as a post-80s generation, Lei Weidong was very clear about the situation in China, in the seventies and eighties, China was poor and white, and many things that have been commonly used in the world are rare goods in China.
Sure enough, after looking at the prefabricated house, Mr. Wang's expression was very excited, but there was a trace of regret and distress in his excited look.
"Minister Li, you see that Mr. Lei here is still doing quite well in terms of accommodation, and such a house is taken out for our people to live in, which seems to be very sincere. Look at this steel, this wall skin, although it is a little thinner, but it is durable. The wind can't blow, the rain can't blow, there is such a spacious space, and there are such big windows, such a mobile house, I don't know when it will be available in China! Mr. Wang said while watching.
"Yes, from the outside, these houses should be all up to date, not more than a year old! It would be nice if such a thing could be used by domestic construction workers. This house is better than what many workers live in. I don't believe anyone would be dissatisfied. Minister Li nodded in agreement.
"This mobile house is indeed a good thing, especially the simplicity of construction, I just asked, to build such a house, you have to hurry up, you can get it up in a day, and you don't need a few people. This is much better than building a house and setting up a tent in one place in China.
Moreover, it can be installed and disassembled repeatedly, and the utilization rate is very high. It's just a little bad, it's too much of a waste of steel, and this kind of steel can't be produced in China at all, all of it has to be imported, if you can afford it, such a spacious and bright house is more comfortable than many workers' houses.
It's just that there are a little fewer people living in such a house, only six people live on the first floor, and only 4 people live on the second floor.
"Yes, make up some double beds, three in a row on the other side, two on the side of the door, plus the aisle in the middle, just right. Much better than the previous accommodation. How else to say that Hong Kong people have money, such a good house is taken out for us to live in, and when the construction starts, I believe those rabbit cubs will die of happiness. Minister Li nodded in agreement.
"Lei Shao, this prefabricated house is really good, but there are a little fewer people living in it, you must know that there are a lot of people who come to Hong Kong this time, and the house is afraid that there are not enough!!" Mr. Wang tilted his head and asked Lei Weidong.
"Rest assured, the house is definitely enough!" Lei Weidong said with a smile: "Like this prefabricated house, I have prepared two kinds, one is the staff office room, that is, the front one, the room area is smaller, one is arranged at each construction site, each building has three floors, and there are eight rooms on the first floor, I believe it is completely enough for the on-site personnel to work."
As for the room where the personnel live is the room in front of me, the house is divided into two floors, there are twelve rooms on each floor, six people live in each room on the first floor, four people live on each floor on the second floor, and more than 100 people can be arranged in a house. ”
"What? Hundreds of prefabricated houses? Need so many homes! And there are only so many people living in one room, this accommodation is a little too luxurious, right? Hearing Lei Weidong's words, Minister Li said in surprise.
If you follow your own practice, such a room will definitely be arranged for ten people, and if you squeeze it, you can live twelve people, and a prefabricated house like this has twenty-four rooms, which can accommodate two hundred and forty people!
In this way, even if 10,000 workers come from the mainland this time, Hong Kong only needs to arrange 50 such mobile houses, and the problem can be solved.
But I didn't expect Lei Weidong to provide hundreds of such prefabricated houses as soon as he opened his mouth, the first floor is fortunate to live six people in each room, and the second floor only lives four people.
If we follow our plan, we don't work hard, just give us half of the rest of the money, we are poor, we can't wait to break a penny in half and spend it.
For Minister Li and Mr. Wang's surprise, Lei Weidong was not surprised, after all, Lei Weidong grew up in the mainland, not to mention the construction site, that is, when Lei Weidong went to college in his previous life in 2000, the dormitory of the school was divided into several waits, and the best dormitory was also four people in one room.
Like ordinary dormitory girls, there are generally six, and the men's dormitory basically lives eight people, and some even live ten people, so it can be said that the place to live is not much better than the pig's nest, and Lei Weidong has been nesting in such a dormitory for several years at that time.
For example, now Lei Weidong arranges four people from the mainland to live in a room, that is, in 2016, when Lei Weidong went to the construction site to run business, he saw that the dormitories where those migrant workers lived were at this level. Almost all of them are six people living in one room, and that is the standard of living decades later, and they all live like that.
Now that mainland workers are allowed to live in a room for four people, Mr. Wang and others certainly feel that it is a luxury.
But Lei Weidong didn't think there was anything, after all, he was not short of money now, and he didn't need to squeeze the workers desperately to earn any hard-earned money.
And Lei Weidong also believes in one thing, it is actually not much money to squeeze workers desperately, and Lei Weidong can earn it back in other places if he spends more money on housing.
It can be said that Lei Weidong only needs to put some effort into living and eating, and does not need to spend much money, as long as he has some small favors, he can buy the hearts of those workers.
It is conceivable that those workers will not die to work for Lei Weidong and repay Lei Weidong's kindness when they see such a place.
Lei Weidong's requirements are not high, as long as the project can be completed two weeks in advance, all the money spent will be saved, and Lei Weidong will earn it three weeks in advance.
