Chapter 220: Return to Life
Flower Market Road, listen to the name to know that what is sold is naturally flowers. Ho Shan is very familiar with this area, because this street is in Mong Kok.
Usually, ordinary families go to buy symbolic plants, such as orange trees that imply good fortune, and those who do business will buy fortune trees and rich bamboos, but the most bought are peach blossom trees and gladiolus, which are not only beautiful and have good meanings, but also ward off evil spirits.
And what He Shan bought was a little out of tune with the New Year, Cordyceps, cactus, numb yellow, and human-tall apple trees.
Fortunately, Carmen came to buy flowers, of course, but in the flow of people in the flower market, holding a pot of fruiting green apple trees is really a bit out of season.
The flowers are not finished after buying, and Carmen has pulled a whole car of flowers and plants to buy clothes.
He Shan didn't say much about this, other girls came all the way to find him, and he couldn't help but entertain him.
He Shan saw that Carmen was busy dropping his clothes, so he asked, "Why do you want to buy me clothes for no reason?" ”
"This red, no, try this white!" After comparing the two sets of Van Heeder shirts in Carmen's hands, she pushed them into the fitting room, fearing that he would procrastinate, and went in to help undress.
Taking advantage of the time when He Shan went to change clothes, Carmen gave full play to her fashion vision one after another, picked out a large number of clothes, and she was followed by the female saleswoman in the Taipan to give advice.
I don't know if she made an appointment with Guo's mother in advance, and it didn't take long for Guo's mother to lead Xiao Guo in the store in the image of a noblewoman.
Then when He Shan came out after changing his clothes, the storefront had already been taken out by Guo's mother.
“…… Take a quick turn and let me see. Carmen bit her fingers and looked at He Shan, who was dressed in front of her.
He Shan looked at Xiao Guo with a face that didn't matter to me and Mother Guo who was smiling brightly, sighed and obediently did so.
"Why are you buying me so many clothes?" He Shan saw that Guo's mother was also trying on Xiao Guo's clothes, and his mood was a little better.
Carmen smiled and tied a tie for He Shan, "Because your clothes are ugly." The last time I woke up at your house, I searched your closet for a long time, and I couldn't even find a decent shirt to change. ”
"That's it?"
"Of course it's more than that, I won't express my opinion on the shoe cabinet, your watch box is empty, and the cloakroom is also empty, in short, before I leave, I will definitely configure your room before leaving."
After Carmen finished speaking, she patted He Shan's collar and took a step back to appreciate her masterpiece with satisfaction.
"What if I don't want to?" He Shan didn't want to waste time on this bit of.
Carmen confidently took a pair of leather shoes for him to change into, "You will, because you don't want me to stay at your house all the time!" ”
He Shan stepped on the leather shoes with one foot, "What if I insist?" ”
Carmen stretched out her hands helplessly, "Don't be duplicitous, you can't do it." ”
He Shan smiled rarely, and was seen through.
All the old clothes were thrown away by Carmen, and Ho Shan was carried on his arms to the next boutique to shop.
In short, the two men went out empty, returned home with a full load, and were overweight, followed by a door-to-door delivery.
Food, clothing, shelter, transportation, eating, drinking and merrymaking. With three meals a day and a "supper" in the evening, Carmen is trying to drain all of Ho Shan's time and energy.
On the evening of the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, He Shan and Carmen quietly climbed over the wall and returned to their home after eating Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at Xiao Guo's house.
Originally, He Shan didn't want to spoil the fun, but a large group of relatives of Xiao Guo's family were there. Playing cards, chatting, and the festive and warm scenes made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"Don't like the Chinese New Year?" Carmen saw the seven wolves obediently carrying wine bottles in their mouths to He Shan, who was blowing the wind in the garden, so she stepped forward and asked.
Without answering, He Shan rubbed his fingers lightly on the mouth of the bottle, pushed the metal bottle cap away, and drank it.
After he quickly knocked out the whole bottle of vodka, he said, "How many big boxes of fireworks bought during the day are in the garage, do you want to put them?" ”
"It must be released, otherwise it will not be complete." Carmen tilted her head to confirm that He Shan was fine, so she happily trotted with the seven wolves to get it.
Every year at Victoria Harbour, there is a 23-minute Lunar New Year fireworks display, which can be watched right from Barka Road.
Because he was afraid that he would delay the viewing time during the meal, Xiao Guo suggested that He Shanxia buy a large number of fireworks and prepare to have a lot of fun at that time.
Quiet and private is one of the characteristics of Baijiadao, which is inhabited by local leaders in the political and business circles, but He Shan did not take these profiteers and eunuchs who speculated on housing prices in his eyes.
Without prior greeting, he lit the fuse and let the brilliant fireworks bloom over the garden of the only deserted mansion on Kabai Road.
The happiest of all were the elderly and children who lived nearby, and they all rushed out of their gardens.
Xiao Guo forgot the lesson from climbing the wall last time, and took the lead in grabbing the fireworks stick with his cousins.
Guo's father and Guo's mother reluctantly took the phone to call the neighbors to explain, and then some neighbors who wanted to take this opportunity to get to know He Shan, the invisible rich man, found an opportunity to make friends.
Of course, the top ones will not come to the door to make friends in person, but there are also 2 rich people who are within the 30th of the local rich wealth list, and the rest are all their family members.
The New Year's is not good to drive people with a black face, and I don't know how to spread the news, but it has become a New Year's party at He Shan's house, and it has attracted a group of young rich third, fourth, and fifth generations who are tied to the family for the New Year and can't go down the mountain to play.
He Shan took a broom to clean up the Northern Song Dynasty porcelain broken by the child, thinking that he would put away some swords, swords, and fragile ornaments first, so as not to hurt people.
"I'm sorry, the kid is too skinny." A noble lady who came to He Shan's house to join in the fun hugged the child and apologized.
"It's okay, it's safe." He Shan waved his hand and let the troubled children go to the garden to play.
"This is a white glazed vase from the Dangyangyu kiln in the Northern Song Dynasty, is it really okay?" A wealthy old man with a hobby of collecting, but he is distressed and wants to get rid of all the little ones who are in the way, and then quietly admire the priceless collection in the hall.
"How much is that vase worth?" Father Guo said embarrassedly, he brought the adults. Children and women are recruited by his wife-like showmanship.
"It's okay, it can be fixed, some things are too perfect to be worthless." After He Shan finished speaking, he asked the servant big bad wolf to take away the broken porcelain tiles in his hand.
A middle-aged neighbor who lived next door to Xiao Guo's house took the old man just now and discussed around Guo's father: "Old Guo, the future life can be described as ah." Tens of millions of vases can be broken as if they are fine! ”
Xiao Guo's father was surprised: "It's so valuable!?" ”
"It seems that you still don't understand the value of these random antiques in the hall." The old man paused and whispered, "We just made a rough calculation, and all the things in the hall add up, and they are worth half of my net worth." ”
Father Guo trembled and asked, "Are the things in the hall real?" Isn't that the study ......?"
The words stopped abruptly at this point, which made the two of them very dissatisfied.
As soon as he thought of the brilliant gold coin floor and a glittering wall that he walked into the study, Father Guo didn't dare to think about it anymore.
There are more valuable antiques in the study! The two rich men immediately thought of the key information of the study, but there were seven large dogs guarding the leading to the study and the second floor and basement. They are all people who have seen a big scene, and they all recognize that He Shan's raising is not a dog, but a wolf!
He Shan did not do a good job of entertaining guests and fulfilling the obligations of the host's family. But fortunately, Carmen had the consciousness of a hostess, so she ran to the cellar and brought out some water and wine to entertain the guests.
It was the children who were happy all night because they received a lot of big red envelopes.
He Shan is unmarried, so he doesn't need to send it to the child, but after the child enters the door and says the auspicious blessing to him, he still doesn't express it empty-handed, which seems unreasonable. So I had to find a gap and seal some red envelopes.
The young people wanted to get close to He Shan, which was what the elders of the family asked of them before they came. Let them touch the foundation of He Shan and see what the way it came from.
It's a pity that this group of young people, except for a few who were happy with Xiao Guo, didn't dare to look at He Shan directly, so they didn't dare to talk to him. Let the elders of their family shake their heads in hatred, and then go out themselves.
The former vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was the oldest, and he was the first to speak: "My nephew, I have wanted to say hello to you several times when I saw you running in the morning, but your kid ran too fast and I couldn't catch up." ”
"You don't seem to have joined the Jockey Club yet, why don't you get together for the Lunar New Year Cup on the third day of the Lunar New Year, and help you join the club by the way." The owner of Bomingham City in the Premier League said that it was his little grandson who had just broken the vase.
Xiao Guo's father continued: "Okay, I just have three horses to participate in the Lunar New Year Cup, you will cheer me on when the time comes!" ”
Guo's father's face must be given, and He Shan should promise: "Yes." ”
"By the way, which line of work do you do, I see that you are full of antiques in the hall, it shouldn't be an auction company, right? Business in Europe or North America. The former vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange saw that the opening remarks were almost complete, so he went straight to the topic.
He Shan thought about running a tea restaurant and didn't say anything, so he replied: "The main thing is investment." ”
"Oh!?" Xiao Guo's father and the boss of Birmingham are very curious about which project He Shan is investing in, but it is not easy to ask too much. The two of them plus Guo's father, the three of them happen to be a regular interest group.
The former vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was direct: "Which securities investment banking company, local or international?" ”
He Shan replied, "Hengsheng." ”
"Hengsheng is too safe, but making money is certain, that is, making less money." "The former vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is worthy of dealing with finance.
After his evaluation, he smiled and said, "You must be their big customer, and you have deposited a lot of money in their bank, otherwise they wouldn't have left this house to you." ”
"Listen to you, as if you have a better introduction." He Shan directly satisfies the purpose of the elderly.
The former vice chairman of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange was also not polite, "My son's company is willing to serve you. ”
Father Guo knew a little about He Shan's decisive style, and he was afraid that he would accept it now, so he interrupted: "Okay, don't talk about business during the New Year, let's go to the garden to have a look." ”
