Chapter 054 [Spring is Coming]
In the office of Cheung Kong Real Estate, Lin Zhichao met with Lee Shau-kee.
He also didn't expect that this 'Asian stock god', one of the four major families in the future, would work for himself.
Of course, he also understood that these were just Lee Shau-kee's temporary shelters, and it was impossible for others to work for a long time, so he didn't think much about it.
"Zhaoji, I will give you a salary of 200 Hong Kong dollars per month, and a bonus will be paid every month according to performance; You can just open this 'Yangtze River Silver' for me, and recruit any talents you need." As for your personal speculation in foreign exchange and gold, I will not interfere with it, and I am free enough. ”
The conditions are superior, but Li Shaoji immediately said: "Boss Lin, there is one more thing I am afraid I want to tell you, if I want to resign in the future, I hope you can understand." ”
Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Don't worry! I know that even if you place flexible orders on Bonham East Street, you will be able to live a good life. Therefore, you can ask me to resign at any time, and I will not stop you, let alone blame you. ”
When Lee Shau Kee heard this, he enjoyed it very much, after all, he could have lived a good life on Bonham East Street with his skills.
"Thank you Boss Lin for your appreciation!"
The two quickly reached an agreement, and Lee Shau Kee immediately went to work to plan the decoration of the silver number and recruit staff for Lin Zhichao, and almost gave it to Lee Shau Kee.
Regarding Li Zhaoji's character, Lin Zhichao is still very relieved, cunning people can make a profit for a while, but it is impossible to achieve great achievements. What's more, 'Changjiang Yinhao' is a subsidiary of Changjiang Real Estate, and the financial aspect is still handed over to the department led by Zhou Fuzhao. The specific simple decoration is the matter of the Yangtze River Real Estate Engineering Department, and Li Zhaoji can give some advice.
.......
In March, when spring came in Hong Kong, Lin Zhichao took Tang Caiyun to take the new Peak Tram to the top of Victoria Peak.
The Peak Tram started operation in 1888 and starts at Garden Road in Central, passing through Kennedy Road Station, MacDonnell Road Station, May Road Station, Barker Road Station and finally to the Peak Terminus.
In fact, very few people get off or board the train at the four stations in the middle, so many of the gondolas don't even stop. Among them, Meidao Station is 180 meters above sea level, Baijiadao Station is 363 meters above sea level, and it is close to the summit terminal at 397 meters above sea level.
"Hey, I've got a new cable car!" Tang Caiyun said in surprise.
At this time, she was dressed as a big lady in Hi Tan, and her slim embroidered long skirt outlined her graceful figure, revealing her arms as white as lotus roots.
Why didn't Lin Zhichao find a rich lady in Guangdong Province, because in terms of appearance, the young ladies and celebrities in Shanghai Beach are enough to beat the whole country, and their thoughts are naturally more avant-garde.
After all, as a modern person, if he is really a woman of the Qing Dynasty, I am afraid that he will not be able to accept any of them, so what is the point of having three wives and four concubines? Even if it is like Mrs. Li and Mrs. Zheng, Lin Zhichao feels that life is dull, after all, his psychology is a modern person.
"Well, I just changed it this year, and there were news reports a few days ago!" Lin Zhichao said with a smile.
This year, the Peak Tram has been replaced with an electric towing gear-driven 'all-metal carriage', which can seat 62 people, and Lin Zhichao also saw it in the newspaper and planned to experience it.
Otherwise, he drove straight to it.
The two of them got on the cable car, which was located right by the window and could enjoy the view outside.
The time of a cable car is very fast, about 8~10 minutes to the summit station, and the two of them come to the observation deck.
Looking down from the top of the hill, the whole Hong Kong scenery is picturesque.
Hong Kong's harbour is clear and clear;
Hong Kong's mountains are green and dust-free;
In fact, at this time, Hong Kong was actually just a simple and clear piece of green and green. There are only two truly bustling roads in Hong Kong – Des Voeux Road and King's Road.
But Lin Zhichao's senses are surprisingly good!
Clean, beautiful, lively and vibrant.
"Brother Zhichao, I'm starting to like Hong Kong too!" Tang Caiyun saw that Lin Zhichao fell into an infatuation with Hong Kong, and immediately confessed.
The answer to why she came to love Hong Kong is self-evident.
Lin Zhichao retracted his gaze from a distance, looked sideways at the lovely person beside him, and said, "Thank you, Caiyun!" ”
Tang Caiyun raised her head slightly and said, "Brother Zhichao, what do you like about Hong Kong?" She asked curiously.
Compared with Shanghi, Hong Kong is relatively backward in economy, culture and life, and the urban construction is far worse than Shanghi, listening to my father, even Hangzhou ~ Zhou is not as good.
Lin Zhichao blurted out: "I like you." Because you're in Hong Kong. ”
But it is the modern population that is used to flowers, although subconsciously there is some restraint, but the essence has not changed.
Tang Caiyun suddenly had a hint of blush on her face, and then lowered her head and said, "Why are you robbing me!" ”
"Haha...... Let's go, let's go to the hilltop restaurant for a meal and a cup of tea! ”
The original site of the Peak Restaurant was originally used as a place for British engineers to work and rest when the Peak Tram was built in 1888, but the site was handed over to the Government and demolished and rebuilt in 1901 as a sedan chair parking place and a shack for sedan chair drivers to rest, so that residents could take the sedan chair from the Peak Tram to the sedan chair to return home. Parking in the building includes public sedan chairs for palanquines and private sedan chairs. With the decline of the sedan chair, from 1947, the site was converted into an open-air café and a western restaurant, and was named The Peak Restaurant.
If Lin Zhichao's favorite places in Hong Kong at the moment are Victoria Peak, Deep Water Bay, and Repulse Bay. The top of Taiping Peak can be 'a glance of the mountains', the deep water bay can be 'deep-rooted and the feng shui is vigorous', and the repulse bay can be 'beautiful and romantic and poetic'.
Along the way, Lin Zhichao and Tang Caiyun are like handsome men and beautiful women, attracting countless eyes, and they are also a rich and expensive couple.
When they came to the western restaurant of the hilltop restaurant, the two sat opposite each other.
"Brother Zhichao, I don't plan to continue my college studies!" Tang Caiyun said suddenly.
Tang Caiyun had studied in the magic capital for a year, if it weren't for Tang Zhongyuan's eagerness to arrange refuge, she would still continue to study in the magic capital!
Originally, she was more opposed to giving up her studies and taking refuge in Hong Kong, but Tang Zhongyuan lied to her daughter that Hong Kong also has a 'University of Hong Kong'. In fact, the admission requirements of the two universities are different, so if Tang Caiyun wants to continue her studies in college, she will inevitably need to re-study a lot.
Of course, now that Tang Caiyun told Lin Zhichao, the meaning is different.
Lin Zhichao is not stupid, and he will not pretend to be stupid, so he said: "I will marry you early next year!" ”
Tang Caiyun immediately showed a hint of joy and blush, and whispered: "Hmm"
Immediately, Lin Zhichao said: "Consolidate your career this year, and you will have no worries next year." Moreover, I also want to go to Europe and the United States to buy you a diamond ring as a wedding ring! ”
Tang Caiyun nodded happily, this man has strength and understands romance, he is simply a girl's prince charming.
......
In the evening, Wu Wenying invited Tang Zhongyuan's family to dinner together.
During the banquet, Tang Zhongyuan took out a piece of textile cloth and handed it to Lin Zhichao.
"How about the fabric we just produced?" After saying that, there was hope on his face.
At this time, Tang Zhongyuan looked like Lin Zhichao's future father-in-law, and more like a textile factory owner who stepped forward to sell. This is a fact, he is very eager to prove himself, and he can achieve a career without Tang Bingyuan; At the same time, when the family arrived in Hong Kong, he also urgently needed to open up the situation, and it was impossible to sit on the empty side.
Lin Zhichao felt it in his hand, and then observed it very carefully, before he said: "I think it should be about the same, but I have to let the people in the factory make sure." Uncle Tang don't worry, you have been in the textile industry for so many years, there will definitely be no problem. ”
He has a clear distinction between public and private, if Tang Zhongyuan's products are not qualified, he can give him time to change them, but he can't use them.
Tang Zhongyuan nodded and said, "Well, then I'll take it for inspection tomorrow." To be honest, although I have been managing a textile factory for so many years, I have only learned what modern management in the West is like when I entered your factory, and it has helped me a lot. ”
Lin Zhichao invited Tang Zhongyuan to inspect Cheung Kong several times, the purpose of which was to promote each other's progress.
Of course, at this time, Tang Zhongyuan's Tsuen Wan factory has not officially started, and it is expected to open at the end of the month. However, Tang Zhongyuan rented another factory building, which was temporarily used as a place to stack machines and train workers.
"Uncle Tang has won the award, and everyone is making progress with each other. After your textile factory is opened, our factory can give you some orders, and other orders have to be exported to Southeast Asia. As for breaking into Europe and the United States, you have to take your time and not be in a hurry. ”
"Well, that makes sense!"
Tang Zhongyuan is not a wealthy man in the magic capital, and his net worth is only five or six hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars, and he invested nearly 400,000 Hong Kong dollars in the textile factory this time.
Of course, Lin Zhichao will definitely support him, after all, he is his father-in-law.
Therefore, Lin Zhichao said again: "If Uncle Tang is rich, he can invest in the land in Tsuen Wan, and within a year or two, it will double in price." ”
Tang Zhongyuan was immediately overjoyed, and immediately said, "I know!" ”
He only has more than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars in his hands, but he trusts Lin Zhichao very much, so he plans to buy all the land. What's more, once the factory is up and running, he can make a profit, because Cheung Kong can give him nearly half of the orders.
After eating, Tang Zhongyuan took Song Qiaoling and his two sons Tang Xianqian and Tang Youqian downstairs to go home.
As for Tang Caiying, she has already entered the boudoir with Lin Xin'er, the two are classmates, and they are relatives immediately, so they naturally have a very good relationship. As for Tang Caiyun, the couple told them to help their future mother-in-law clean up before leaving.
In fact, when Tang Zhongyuan and his wife left, Lin Zhichao stopped Tang Caiyun from helping, but said: "Mom, you are busy first, I will talk to Caiyun, and I will hire two servants for you another day." ”
Wu Wenying said with a smile: "What kind of maid do you want, I don't want Caiyun to help, I can't bear to have beautiful hands." ”
Lin Zhichao had already pulled Tang Caiyun to his bedroom, Wu Wenying wanted to remind him, but the words shrank back into his mouth.
"Forget it, my son is not a reckless person!"
Tang Caiyun was pulled to the bedroom by Lin Zhichao, her face was anxious and shy, and she whispered: "Brother Zhichao, how can you let me see people in front of Aunt Ying like this!" ”
Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "What's this, we don't close the door!" I invite you to visit my room. ”
So, the door was left 20 centimeters open.
Tang Caiyun finally calmed down, and she was really curious about Lin Zhichao's bedroom, so she visited.
In fact, it is very simple, mainly because there are many books, Lin Zhichao is still very easy to learn, after all, his career needs, he doesn't want to become an 'illiterate businessman'.
Looking from behind, Tang Caiyun's graceful figure is really charming.
After a while, he didn't control it and hugged Tang Caiyun from behind.
Then, he turned her over and began to get closer.
Maybe he was scared stupid by Lin Zhichao, maybe Tang Caiyun was at a loss, in short, the sweet taste was warm and moist, and it was intoxicating.
Lip splitting.
Tang Caiyun said angrily and shyly: "Brother Zhichao, you are too much, this is my beginning..."
Lin Zhichao immediately swore and said: "God testifies, I promise to ....."
Tang Caiyun used a jade finger to seal Lin Zhichao's mouth and said, "Who wants you to promise, I believe you!" ”
When the two of them were talking to each other, the door of the room was pushed open, and it was Lin Xin'er and Tang Caiying at the door, and the two girls were dumbfounded, as if the girl saw something inappropriate and opened her mouth wide.
Tang Caiyun immediately pushed Lin Zhichao away, jumping away like a rabbit, her face was hot.
"Xin'er, send you Sister Caiyun and Sister Caiying home for me." Only Lin Zhichao told his sister as if he was fine.
"Oh, good brother."
Tang Caiying walked at the end and grimaced at Lin Zhichao, as if to say, hurry up and please me, otherwise I will tell my parents.
Lin Zhichao suddenly had a more exaggerated grimace, which immediately frightened Tang Caiying, and immediately fled.
