Chapter 66: A New Year
Zhao Shanhe got up and also came to the window.
The mansions of Pak Ka Road became very famous in later generations, selling for more than one million per square meter.
Among these mansions, the adjacent Commander's Mansion on the 11th and the Governor's Mansion on the 15th are in the best locations.
Standing in front of the window on the second floor, looking down the hill, facing a mountain col, and in the distance below is the bustling Central.
Zhao Shanhe didn't understand what he wanted to do, and waited for him to speak.
He didn't sell it, and said directly: "But as an official, the biggest pursuit is the power in your hands." Many times, power is more useful than money. ”
Zhao Shanhe nodded. "Yes."
He pointed to a house directly below that was blocked by green trees and only showed a red roof, and said, "That's Number Twelve, the official residence of the chairman of the housing management committee." ”
"Blessed location."
"Yes, it is facing Central, there is not a single resident around, the entrance is facing the official residence of the commander of the eleventh, you have to go down a hundred meters, go through three bends, and a height of more than twenty meters to reach the manor.
Located at an altitude of 280 metres above sea level, this 30,000-square-foot estate occupies an area of 30,000 square feet, with a construction area of 10,000 square feet, and is flanked by cliffs. ”
Zhao Shanhe looked at him with some doubts, and he said with a smile: "The former chairman is now being examined for taking bribes, and the housing management committee intends to sell this house." ”
Zhao Shanhe's heart understood, and said, "It shouldn't be cheap, right?" ”
He smiled and said, "It shouldn't be too expensive for you...... I know you're still training at the Victoria Park Natatorium, and there's a 15-metre swimming pool on this estate that can be expanded to 25 metres. ”
"If it is sold, there should be a lot of rich people who are willing to buy."
Zhong Yijie nodded and said: "But you have an advantage, you are a competitive celebrity in Xiangjiang, as long as you are in the name of supporting sports training, there are not too many people competing with you." ”
Zhao Shanhe was invited to come, the main purpose is to get closer to the relationship, and if possible, to help his fitness center get a place supported by the government.
But before this matter was mentioned, Zhong Yijie gave this generous gift.
Bai Jia Dao in the 80s was still a privileged circle. Especially between the 11th and 17th, not a single wealthy merchant could live in.
He recalled that when the richest man in Ma bought a house here in his previous life, the price per square meter was almost 1.2 million, which shocked the world.
When I think about it now, I remember the records I saw on the Internet.
No. 11 and No. 15 remained official residences in later generations, and No. 12 was sold to a merchant when he returned, and the price in the nineties was 150 million.
The entrance to No. 12 faces the official residence of the commander No. 11, and there are soldiers on duty, so the security here is naturally the strictest.
Zhao Shanhe asked, "What is the approximate price?" ”
Zhong Yijie smiled. "Thirty million."
Ten years later, 1.5 billion, now 30 million is definitely not expensive at all, even according to the market price, the price per square foot here is only equivalent to 1,000 yuan.
However, there are only a few villas in total, which are completely priceless and scarce resources in the market.
Not to mention, now the price is 50 million, and there are many people grabbing it.
And Zhong Yijie mentions it now, which proves that he is very sure that Zhao Shanhe will get this house.
Although he only borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, Zhong Yijie was able to take the initiative to help, which proved that he wanted to maintain this relationship for a long time.
He turned his head to look at Zhong Haowei, who was still a little unclear, and nodded.
Zhong Yijie laughed with satisfaction......
He is not short of money, and he will have a generous pension when he retires, and he does not need Zhao Shanhe's interests.
And what he is most concerned about is his grandson, with Zhao Shanhe's guarantee, even if Zhong Haowei is not successful, he will not be hungry in the future.
Zhao Shanhe said with a smile: "The price is still according to the market price, I don't need to save this money to make you embarrassed, and I don't want to implicate you." ”
Zhong Yijie nodded and said with a smile: "This news will not spread, it will only spread in a small circle, and no one will maliciously raise the price." ”
This is a trading game for the privileged class, although Zhao Shanhe can't play it now, and he doesn't know the specific situation.
But later generations have heard a lot, and they are not unfamiliar with this game.
Zhong Haowei asked, "Ah He, are you going to move in?" Then we can be neighbors from now on. ”
Zhong Yijie said: "It's impossible to be a neighbor, Evan just bought this house, and it will take about half a year to renovate it." We're moving out in a few months. ”
Zhao Shanhe asked, "Is this house going to be transferred to the new political secretary?" ”
Zhong Yijie nodded and said with a smile: "There will be an official residence for me to live in in the next two years, but I am already preparing to build my own house in the New Territories." ”
"Why the New Territories? It's remote over there, huh? ”
"I have been working in the New Territories for decades, and in the 70s, I bought a plot of land in Tsing Tau Tung between Tsuen Wan and Tuen Mun as a place to live after retirement.
I'm 58 years old now, and I'm retired in two years, so I'm ready to build a new home. ”
Zhao Shanhe hesitated, but still said: "If there is pressure on the financial side, I can solve it." ”
"No, I still have some savings."
If he is going to be the chairman of the housing management committee next, there are naturally real estate developers who are willing to help him build a house at a low price.
However, Zhao Shanhe's attitude has to be expressed.
He turned his head to look at Zhong Haowei and asked with a smile: "Chris, you told me last time that you are interested in computer science, right?" ”
Zhong Haowei nodded and said, "You donated fifty computers to the school and opened a computer class, which seems to open a new world for me." ”
Zhao Shanhe said with a smile: "I hope you can continue to study, the future computer industry is definitely an emerging industry that can change the world." Now we are classmates, and in the future I hope that we can become colleagues for life. ”
Zhong Haowei smiled: "I will work hard." ”
Seeing Zhao Shanhe guiding Zhong Haowei to move forward, Zhong Yijie and his wife showed sincere smiles on their faces.
After having dinner together, Zhao Shanhe accompanied Zhong Haowei on the top of the mountain and played the game console for a while before saying goodbye.
When entering Baijia Road from Hospital Road, Zhao Shanhe said: "Go east first, and stop at Junction 12." ”
Xiao Zhuang asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"The twelfth is for sale, and I have a good chance of buying it."
Xiao Zhuang took a breath of cold air. "You can't buy a house here with money...... Hehe, collusion between officials and businessmen. ”
Zhao Shanhe smiled: "Don't be so cynical, you are not such a person." ”
Baijia Road walked east for about 100 meters, the uphill on the right is to go to the commander's residence, and the downhill on the left is to go to the twelfth.
Standing on the side of the road, you can see the bright Xiangjiang, but you can't see the house of No. 12.
Zhao Shanhe enjoyed the beautiful scenery for a while before saying, "Let's go, go home." ”
This matter has not yet been finalized, and Zhao Shanhe did not mention it when he returned home.
When he woke up the next day, Zhao Shanhe began to prepare the red envelope for work.
Today, on the ninth day of the new year, many companies in Xiangjiang have opened, and the renovation of the fitness center has also been restarted.
The custom here in Xiangjiang is that there is a start profit, that is, a red envelope.
This custom in Xiangjiang has a long history, and no matter how big or small the boss is, all of them must make a profit.
I don't care how much, it's mainly a lottery.
However, Zhao Shanhe is also a rich man now, and the staff hired by his fitness center are each a thousand yuan red envelope, and the decoration workers are all five hundred yuan red envelopes.
In addition to these red envelopes, a lot of red envelopes of varying amounts have been prepared for distribution to others.
Zhao's mother and Xiao Stammering helped, and the three of them loaded it for more than an hour, and when they went out, Zhao Shanhe used a bag to pack up all the red envelopes.
Today I was going to send money, and Mother Zhao and Xiao Stammering also followed.
From the beginning of going out, the property staff downstairs met one by one for 200 yuan red envelopes to ask for a lottery.
When I arrived at the school, the security guards on duty at the school also gave out red envelopes one by one, not caring how much, just customs.
When we arrived at the fitness center, the 500 yuan red envelope for the renovation workers came in handy.
The sixth floor of the company has been sorted out, but it has not been renovated, and the employees who have been recruited are trained here, and today is also the first day of training.
They are people from their own company, and they are all 1,000 yuan red envelopes.
Xiao Zhuang and Feng Gang, Shao Yi also have red envelopes, and they are bigger, and Zhao Shanhe also deliberately asked his mother to personally send them red envelopes.
After a busy morning, he finished the procedure, and Zhao Shanhe officially stepped into 1987.
"Mom, I asked Xiaozhuang to send you to Xu's house to attend the party, and I won't go at noon. In the afternoon, you can arrange your own ......."
Mother Zhao nodded. "Then you come early in the evening."
"I know."
Let Xiaozhuang send them away, Zhao Shanhe and Feng Gang crossed King's Road and came to the north side of the road, in the house they rented a few months ago.
Feng Gang entered the house, closed the door, and scanned it with electronic equipment, but found no electronic signal, then walked to the inner safe and said: "I bought the weapon back last night, and I also got the news that a large circle is being chased by black and white......"
The safe opened, and four pistols were neatly placed on the top layer, and the plastic outer box was still there.
The lower floor was full of bullets, thousands of them.
Zhao Shanhe excitedly took out a Boleta 92F pistol, which he was most accustomed to, the gun was brand new, unpacked, and the smell of gun oil came to his nose.
Taking a deep breath obsessively, Zhao Shanhe took out a handful and asked, "How much did you buy in total?" ”
"Thirty pistols, it's not easy to buy too many grenades, only ten, and AK bought ten, and there are matching bullets."
Zhao Shanhe dismantled the package, put two into the bag, and then loaded a whole box of bullets, and loaded two more magazines. "I'll take these back, and you can take the rest. Now let's talk about the big circle, what's going on? ”
