At the time of entry.

didn't run into any trouble,

Lin Yi's procedures are legal and complete, the salute is also very simple, there are no contraband, and the customs clearance is smooth after the inspection.

Promised Brother Shui's clearance fee to Ah Ming, seeing Lin Yi enter the customs, Ah Ming waved his hand and said goodbye, his task was completed.

After passing the customs, it is the long-distance bus station, Lin Yi got on the bus to pay the money, found a place to sit down, and many people came up one after another, and when the car was full, the driver immediately set off.

Lin Yixin said that it was not bad,

It's not as rigid as having to wait for time.

Most of the people in the car were curious to look out of the car window, and for all those who came to Hong Kong for the first time, there was joy and novelty in their hearts.

Among them, there is a team of people, listening to the talk and looking at the style, it is obviously the so-called inspection group, and the situation of the director of the wall calendar factory should be similar to the situation when they come to Hong Kong, under the guise of inspection, in fact, most of them are public-funded tourism.

Even shopping at public expense.

Lin Yi didn't bother to listen to them, he looked out the window, in the 80s, the New Territories were full of large areas of farmland or wasteland, which was not much different from the mainland, and the really developed places were Hong Kong Island and Kowloon.

On the highway, there are indeed quite a few large trucks.

It can be said that this highway,

It was built in Hong Kong specifically for the supply of daily necessities.

Walking this section, you can often see some parking lots on the side of the road, and all the big trucks are parked in them, this scene reminds Lin Yi of those parking lots on the side of the national highway in the future world.

Go to bed

Fart.

There is one more person in Hong Kong to take away smuggled goods.

In fact, here in Hong Kong, people don't call it smuggling, it's a normal business, and it's not illegal for the police to come, so they do it so unscrupulously, they attract Hong Kong drivers who deliver goods to the mainland, and mainland drivers who come to Hong Kong from the mainland to deliver goods.

These drivers are like ants moving, every time they transport a little bit over, they can't stop the car, hundreds of trucks to and from Shenzhen to transport vegetables, every day to commute, over and over again, even if each car only carries a few dozen electronic watches, or one or two televisions, think about how much this number will be.

More than two hours later,

The bus stopped at the West Kowloon long-distance bus stop and everyone got off.

Looking at the surrounding buildings and customs,

Everyone was full of novelty and eagerness, ready to explore the unknown treasure trove, but Lin Yi was not included in these people.

Truth be told,

Hong Kong in '81.

Indeed, there are many high-rise buildings,

It is much more lively and prosperous than the mainland.

But for Lin Yi from later generations, working hard in the sea of clouds, accustomed to seeing high-rise buildings and brilliant neon night scenes, the current Hong Kong will not let him have any waves.

The people in the car were scattered.

The delegation was picked up and followed, some individual passengers were dazed for a while, and they also staggered out of the station, ready to embark on another journey, Lin Yi was very simple, and hailed a taxi when he got out of the station, "Go to the sea pier." ”

At this time, Hong Kong's Kowloon side is still old, and the most prosperous place in Hong Kong is Central, Hong Kong's absolute CBD area, and New York Manhattan, the City of London, Tokyo Ginza, Paris La Défense are equally famous.

In later generations, the domestic CBD areas were Chaoyang, Yunhai, Lujiazui, and Tianhe, Guangzhou.

Lin Yi's purpose in going to Central is very simple, to buy suitable clothes.

The clothes on his body are definitely fashionable in China, but here in Hong Kong, he immediately shows his rusticness, Hong Kong is a typical capitalist society, he only recognizes clothes and does not recognize people, Lin Yi must integrate here if he wants to have fun.

Hong Kong's cross-harbour tunnel has been open for almost ten years, and taxis can actually go directly to Hong Kong Island.

Take the ferry across the sea,

It is one of the plots in many Hong Kong movies.

"Woo~!"

The whistle sounds.

Lin Yi stepped on the deck and went to the dock, at this time it was already dark, and it was about to get dark, with the flow of people to the bus station, he didn't take a taxi again, Lin Yi got on a double-decker bus, did not squeeze underneath, but climbed to the second floor.

Double-decker buses are one of Hong Kong's signature business cards, which are very suitable for sightseeing and visiting Hong Kong's night scene.

In the mall,

Lin Yi bought a suit that fitted, not a big brand, he still spent more than a thousand, and bought a shirt and leather shoes, and after changing a set of clothes, the whole person immediately changed.

There are high-end barber shops around,

Lin Yi found a Tony teacher and cut a neat haircut.

He was originally a modern person, there was no such confusion and rustic atmosphere on his face, he changed his clothes, cut his hair, and brought a Swiss watch in his hand, his temperament immediately came out, he looked like a promising young man in the workplace, walking on the street, absolutely no one could see that he was from the mainland.

After a brief dinner, Lin Yi walked around Central.

What is the most in Central?

Banks, financial institutions, shopping malls, food courts, watch shops, brand-name clothing stores, and the Golden Building.

There are no restrictions on gold trading in Hong Kong, and they are free to buy and sell, with Chow Tai Fook, Chow Sang Sang, Luk Fook, Kim Supreme, and Tse Sui Lun all having stores in Central.

Lin Yi walked into a gold store, and a female shopping guide wearing an OL costume came over, "Sir, what do you want to buy, for the old man or for his girlfriend?" ”

"I want to sell some gold for money, do you want to collect it here?" Lin Yi said in standard Hong Kong and Guangdong.

"Sell gold, please here."

The golden building basically has a special place to collect gold, the master sits in it, trading through the glass, Lin Yi took out a small cloth bag prepared in advance, and there were three small gold cakes in it, he didn't dare to take out too much at one time, so he tried the water in this house to explore the situation first.

The master got the gold and tested it, cut the gold cake with pressure pliers, saw if there was a filling, burned it with fire, and tested the purity with medicinal agents, etc., and finally weighed it, and got a set down, and the master said to Lin Yi:

"Sir, our purchase price is benchmarked against the international gold price, your gold is slightly impurities, the purity is about 99, we can buy it at 84 Hong Kong dollars per gram, what do you think."

The price of gold is basically transparent, Lin Yi calculated in his heart, according to the current exchange rate between RMB and Hong Kong dollars, 84 Hong Kong dollars is 28 yuan, and Lin Yi is 26 yuan per gram, which is equivalent to about 2 yuan from it.

Actually, it's not all.

Take back the Hong Kong dollars and directly hand them over to the foreign exchange dealers, Lin Yi can still earn thirty or forty percent of the profit, so that he can earn four or five yuan more per gram than selling the gold directly to Brother Shui.

"Yes." Lin Yi agreed with Master's offer.

"The total weight of your pieces of gold is 305.4 grams, and the total price is 25,653 Hong Kong dollars.

The master said and accepted the golden cake and gave Lin Yi a note.

Lin Yi took the account slip to the counter to withdraw money, the counter lady asked him if it was a transfer or cash, Lin Yi had any bank card, so he naturally asked for cash, and Lin Yi put a wad of money in his pocket and left the gold store satisfied.

Throughout

The gold shop didn't ask Lin Yi to show any personal documents, legal source certificates of gold and the like, the transaction was very simple, if you bring the gold, I will give you money.

Lin Yi raised his hand to look at the time, and at eight o'clock in the evening, he took a turn on the street and entered another golden building.

Same routine.

Inspect the gold and sell the goods, no formalities, this time Lin Yi took out more, sold more than 500 grams, and still asked for cash when he left.

The third home.

Fourth.

Only one night,

Lin Yi walked seven or eight gold houses, sold all the gold in his hand, and gained more than HK$430,000.

No wonder there were so many gold shops in Hong Kong later, because the gold was too easy, it is said that Ye Jihuan took AK and robbed 5 gold shops in Central, I don't know if there are any of these that Lin Yi went to.

Estimated yes.

Passing by a newsstand, the boss was an old man in his sixties and seventies, who was closing the stall at the moment, "Boss, one copy of all the newspapers, and a few more magazines." ”

The owner was delighted.

If these newspapers are not sold today, they will become waste paper tomorrow, so hurry up and get a copy for Lin Yi.

"What kind of magazine do you want?" The old man asked.

Lin Yi glanced at it, entertainment stars, and he felt that he knew the cover character, and after a careful glance, it turned out to be Lin Qingxia when he was young.

Lin Qingxia in the 80s was not the undefeated overlord sister Dongfang in later generations, but a pure jade girl, the most famous No. 1 heroine of Qiong Yao drama, popular in Southeast Asia.

"Here's a copy." Lin Yi pointed at Lin Qingxia and said.

The old man hurriedly took it down.

Current affairs and political magazines, many of the contents in which they cannot be seen in China, have even become the cover character.

"I want these copies."

Lin Yi pointed to those current affairs magazines and said, I can't see these in China, let's see what they say about us.

The old man took it down again.

Academic and story Lin Yi skipped it, the dragon, tiger and leopard are boring, you can have two copies of Reader's Digest, and a few copies of Time Magazine to learn about the ...... world events.

In the end, Lin Yi picked and chosen, bought dozens of magazines, and there was a large stack of newspapers, the old man was so happy, he didn't expect a big customer to come to the stall, and offered to give Lin Yi a ninety-five discount, and finally paid, these newspapers and magazines cost hundreds of Hong Kong dollars.

It is said that knowledge is priceless.

Says who

Knowledge is expensive, okay.

Leaving the sight of the bookstall owner, Lin Yi put the heavy magazines and newspapers into the space, raised his hand and stopped a taxi.

"Find a hotel."

The taxi driver looked at Lin Yi, "Mr. wants an ordinary hotel, or a better hotel, or a hotel with services?" ”

Lin Yi was eager to ask what a serviced hotel was.

Ahem,

"Go to a better hotel."
