Saturday, November 20th.

In the evening, Lin Zhichao came home from work and greeted Li Gaofu's family warmly when he saw Li Gaofu's family as a guest.

For these relatives, Lin Zhichao also insists on giving basic care, such as if a relative comes to Hong Kong for refuge and finds Lin Zhichao, then he will be arranged to work in the Tsuen Wan factory, at least have a place to stay. However, Lin Zhichao will not take the initiative to invite relatives from the mainland to Hong Kong, after all, there are no immediate family members in the mainland.

Chen Shufang quickly said worriedly: "Zhichao, Ah Fu has been out for almost half a month, do you have any news?" ”

It seems that Chen Shufang brought her family to be a guest, and this is the big purpose.

Lin Zhichao sat on the sofa with a smile, crossed Erlang's legs, and said, "What is Ah Fu?" Cousin-in-law, you have to change it, respect Brother Gao Fu, others will be developed when they come back this time. You have to beware of him marrying an aunt. ”

Between his words, there was not much joking, but some seriousness.

When Chen Shufang heard this, she immediately jumped up in a hurry, and she no longer cared about Li Gaofu's safety.

"He dares! I brought him a son and a daughter, and there was no merit and hard work. After speaking, he was already crying and looking at Li's father and Li's mother.

As a result, I didn't expect that Li's father and Li's mother reacted slowly, and I didn't know if it was intentional.

After a long time, Dad Li said: "Where is it so easy to develop and make some desperate money, what are you worried about in the future!" ”

Having said that, Li's father and Li's mother have already revealed some things - protecting their son; At the same time, the old couple also forgot one thing - when Chen Shufang took them in, her attitude was quite good, and she could be regarded as a good daughter-in-law.

Human nature is like this!

Chen Shufang naturally felt the attitude of the second elder, she was not stupid, but she didn't dare to give the second elder a face, after all, Li Gaofu was considered developed last year.

After such a farce, Chen Shufang suddenly quieted down.

Seeing this, Dad Li was concerned about his son's situation and asked again: "Zhichao, Gao Fu him."

Lin Zhichao immediately waved his hand and said, "Uncle cousin, don't worry!" There is no risk in this route, and Brother Gao Fu is afraid that he has already arrived in Japan at this time. It is expected that in more than half a month, it will arrive in Hong Kong. ”

It takes seven or eight days to sail from Hong Kong to Weihaiwei, and it is almost the same from Japan back to Hong Kong, but the time at the port is longer, after all, the goods are not moved to the ship so quickly. Once down, 30~40 days is more reasonable.

In fact, there must be risks, and there are inherent risks in sailing, otherwise in this era, why is shipping such a high rate of return?

At the same time, it is indeed facing the situation encountered with the G Navy, and when others can't fire their guns, it may all depend on their mood.

However, as far as Lin Zhichao knows, during this period, many people from Hong Kong were transported to the JF District for a conference, and nothing big happened. Based on this, the risk is still very low, but that is for Lin Zhichao's information.

Li Gaofu must have known the risks, but he still chose to do it without hesitation, after all, to get rich is to work hard. As for his family, he believes that Lin Zhichao will still take care of it.

Your wife and daughter, I raise them.

"Zhichao, now that you are developed, why don't you ask a maid to help your grandma?" After a while, Mama Li brought the dishes to the table and said.

As soon as Li's mother arrived at Lin's house, Li's mother helped Wu Wenying, and she was flattering everywhere.

On the contrary, Chen Shufang's performance was a little worse, and she didn't even know how to shoot Lin Zhichao's sycophants.

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "I can't find a suitable one at this time, so I'm going to ask the people around me recently." ”

To be honest, living in this kind of house, Lin Zhichao is also not interested in finding a servant; In addition, Wu Wenying was worried about finding a 'dishonest' servant, so she kept preventing Lin Zhichao from finding a servant.

However, Tang Caiyun is about to marry in, and she can't do it if she doesn't find a maid, especially after she is pregnant with a baby.

Li's mother immediately offered her courtesy and said: "You are high up every day, so it is naturally difficult for you to have the opportunity to meet the daughter of a poor family. I know a little girl from Shunde, who is diligent and honest, if you are interested, I will let her try. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Zhichao immediately became serious.

"How's the family going? What does a father do, what does a mother do? Do you have any gambling in your family? Cousin, you can investigate it for me before introducing it. ”

In the end, it is inevitable that the seriousness of a big man is put on.

Mother Li was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I'll inquire again, don't worry, I have checked the three generations of his ancestors, and then I recommend it to you." ”

"Thank you, Cousin!"

In fact, in this way, Lin Zhichao also has channels, and there are so many worker families in Changjiang Industrial, if you ask about it, you can naturally find a suitable one.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhichao decided to treat it as a thing.

After dinner, Lin Zhichao asked the driver to send his cousin's family home. Chen Shufang sat in the car, both envious and remembered the matter of 'marrying his aunt', and finally an idea flashed in his mind - if Li Gaofu really let her live in a mansion and take a car, she would marry her aunt's wife.

"Shufang, you will be more respectful to Zhichao in the future! Gao Fu can have today's opportunity, all relying on others to help. If it is replaced by other relatives, it would be good if others could reward you with a bowl of rice, Zhichao also borrowed 100,000 yuan from Gaofu, which shows that there is great kindness to our family. Dad Li suddenly said.

Chen Shufang immediately said aggrievedly: "Dad, how dare I be disrespectful to his big boss!" ”

In fact, Chen Shufang didn't have much gratitude, and always thought that Lin Zhichao was repaying the kindness of the original take-in.

That's true, but she shouldn't take it for granted.

Dad Li said: "It's good to know, in short, you have to pay special attention in the future!" ”

Mother Li said: "Yes, Shufang, Zhichao is a noble person in our family. Later, we developed, and the first person to visit during the New Year's holidays was their family. ”

Finally, the son is about to have a chance, and the old couple still understands, not to mention that the son's attitude also says everything.

"I know!"

Thinking that her husband was about to develop, Chen Shufang finally bowed her head to everyone, or rather, she was succumbing to money.

At the start of the new week, the price of gold in the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange Society began to trend downward, citing the fact that mainland officials allowed people to deposit and exchange gold. Of course, there are many conditions, such as a fixed period of one year to withdraw gold, the limit of one tael, three months at most once.

Even so, major cities in the mainland, especially banks in Shanghai, have seen a run on people's money – saving less and withdrawing more.

On the morning of Wednesday (24th), Lin Zhichao came to the Yangtze River Yinhao.

"Boss, it seems that this wave will not make much money, according to the news from the telegram, the gold is already at sea. At the same time, the development of gold deposits and exchanges in the mainland is bound to make some importers wait and see. Lee Shau Kee analyzed.

Lin Zhichao sat in his position, his expression was more relaxed, but he made less money; More importantly, he knew that the gold exchange in the mainland would be canceled soon, and the Jiang family would not watch a large amount of gold and silver flow into the people.

In fact, although the Jiang family 'looted' a lot of gold in the mainland, only a small part of this gold was brought to Taiwan Island, and almost all of the rest was taken out for military spending. And the remaining batch of gold was enough for them to spend on Taiwan until 1950, which can be regarded as stable funds.

What is said that Taidao relied on that batch of gold to develop, it is all brainless people who think like that.

The Chinese are very intelligent, and they can endure hardships and toils, and there is almost no possibility of poverty.

"What do you think?" Lin Zhichao asked.

Lee Shau Kee said: "Cash out in two days, and then buy at the right time!" In this way, we can also get a profit of 80,000 or 90,000 Hong Kong dollars. ”

looks like he has made a lot of money, but in fact, he has bought more than 2.8 million Hong Kong dollars, which is nothing.

Lin Zhichao, as the boss, has his concerns and said: "In this way, it will inevitably cause gold instability, which will also affect our original intention of this transaction." In this way, cash out with them and divide it into three or four days. ”

In Lin Zhichao's view, business can be intrigued; But if you want to be bigger, you must always learn to be honest and virtuous.

This time he was invited to raise the price of gold, if he escaped in advance in order to make a profit, although Liao Baoshan and others would not say anything, but everyone's opinion would still be there. Of course, Lin Zhichao can't raise the price for the Chaozhou gold merchant every time, and this time it should be regarded as a favor.

Lee Shau Kee immediately admired Lin Zhichao's character very much - righteous enough, aware of the overall situation, and felt that it was worth learning from himself. At the same time, he felt that it was his good fortune to meet such a good boss.

"Okay, I'll take control."

Lin Zhichao nodded, and then added: "The mainland may soon cancel the deposit and exchange of gold, so there is no need to consider that factor." At the same time, gold can definitely touch 500 Hong Kong dollars per tael this year. So, after selling, the price is a little lower, so let's buy it again. ”

At this time, gold has risen to 465 Hong Kong dollars per tael, and even if it falls again, it is impossible to fall below 450 Hong Kong dollars.

Li Shauji's eyes lit up, and he suddenly had inspiration, and said confidently: "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely find the right time." ”

The other side.

A few gold speculators from Chaoshan saw that there was no violent short selling of the Yangtze River Yinhao, and they really admired Lin Zhichao's character. Everyone unanimously reduced the number of short sales to avoid a sharp decline in gold.

The result came the next day (Thursday).

There are news reports: On Tuesday (23rd), seven people died in the Shanghai market because of a gold run, so the Republic of China government announced the cancellation of gold deposits.

For a time, the demand for gold in the mainland black market was active again, and the gold in the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange began to continue to rise, soon rising to 470 Hong Kong dollars per tael.

As a result, the Teochew gold merchants and the Yangtze River Silver began to gradually sell a large amount of gold, and immediately made a lot of profits. Under such a large number of orders, the price of gold will naturally be suppressed again, giving the opportunity to buy the bottom.

In the morning, Tang Zhongyuan's family gathered around for breakfast.

Suddenly, Tang Caiyun felt a little like vomiting, and she couldn't control the retching sound, and then she hurriedly ran to the bathroom.

"I'll take a look!"

Song Qiaoling followed in as soon as possible and patted Tang Caiyun on the back.

"I'm sorry, Mommy!"

After tidying up, Tang Caiyun said apologetically.

Song Qiaoling asked with concern: "Retching and want to vomit?" ”

Tang Caiyun nodded and said, "Well, suddenly I felt a little sick to my stomach." ”

At this time, Song Qiaoling vaguely guessed, and immediately said: "Have you and Zhichao had sex together?" ”

Tang Caiyun suddenly became shy, and said coquettishly: "Mommy! What do you ask for, really! ”

is not to be blamed by her parents, she knows that her parents attach great importance to this son-in-law, even if this happens, she will pretend not to know, let alone scold the two.

It's just shyness!

"Silly girl! I mean, if you're having sex, you're going to have to pay attention to whether you're pregnant. After all, if you retch for no reason and want to throw up, it is most likely morning sickness. Song Qiaoling said with a smile.

The wedding of daughter and Lin Zhichao only has eight days left in one month, so why be harsh.

To put it bluntly, after the two got engaged, they had already stabilized.

Tang Caiyun raised her head violently, her eyes were full of surprise, and said, "Really? Good mother, tell me, how can you tell this? ”

"You girl! Don't be shy now! Song Qiaoling joked to her daughter.

As everyone knows, Tang Caiyun has been really worried recently, after all, she and Lin Zhichao have been having sex together since late August, although the number of times is small (no chance), but after all, she has been pregnant for so long and has not been pregnant, so she has to be worried.

And Lin Zhichao's family is thin, not to mention, that is, Lin Zhichao himself, as an entrepreneurial tycoon, is unimaginable if he does not have descendants.

At that time, Tang Caiyun felt that she might take the initiative to take a concubine for her husband.

Because the two were upstairs and downstairs, Tang Caiyun retched a few times, and couldn't help but go upstairs to find Lin Zhichao.

"Mom, what's wrong with my sister?" Tang Caiying asked with concern.

The two of them are like riddles, the father doesn't speak, the two younger brothers don't care, but she feels that she has been left out, why doesn't her sister share it with her?

Song Qiaoling stared at her second daughter and said, "It's nothing, haven't you had no appetite in the morning!" ”

Tang Caiying is naturally very smart, of course she won't believe it, but she knows that she can't ask from her mother, so she hurriedly finished breakfast and ran up in the name of looking for Lin Xin'er.

Tang Zhongyuan said: "If it's true, don't talk nonsense everywhere!" ”

Song Qiaoling glanced at her husband and said, "I don't know yet!" ”

She also knows that if she gives birth to a boy, her daughter can worry a lot less. When she gave birth to two daughters, her parents-in-law didn't gossip a lot, and it was really uncomfortable that day, so she almost didn't take the initiative to marry her son to an aunt.

And my current son-in-law, I'm afraid I pay more attention to this aspect, after all, the people are not prosperous, and the career is getting bigger and bigger, how can there be no reason not to want to inherit it.

Here, Tang Caiyun came to Lin Zhichao's house, and after saying hello to Wu Wenying and Lin Xin'er, she pulled Lin Zhichao to the bedroom. Leaving Wu Wenying and Lin Xin'er a little stunned, this girl (Sister Caiyun) is a little abnormal today, why did she take the initiative.

"Brother Zhichao, guess what good news I have for you?" Tang Caiyun stood in front of Lin Zhichao, with a happy expression on her face.

Seeing this, Lin Zhichao had already guessed it, but he was a person who knew romance.

"I guess, did Caiyun dream last night and dreamed of me?"

Tang Caiyun immediately squirmed and said, "No. Although I often dream of you! ”

Especially after the relationship between the two has gone further, because there is only one time a week to get close, it is common for a girl to be pregnant.

"That's it! That's not Caiyun."

Soon, Tang Caiyun found out that Lin Zhichao was deliberately teasing her, and immediately fell into Lin Zhichao's arms!

"Haha, you girl, we are both so healthy, how can you not get pregnant. Recently, have you been worried a lot, which makes me feel so heartbroken, and I'm afraid that it will make things worse, so I don't dare to enlighten you! ”

Men just can deceive people, Lin Zhichao's whole body stiffened that time, which put a lot of pressure on Tang Caiyun; At that time, Tang Caiyun knew that if she didn't get pregnant, the pressure would be all on her.

However, Tang Caiyun didn't care about those, she was full of happiness at this time.

"Brother Zhichao, you are so good!"

When the two of them were talking to each other, the door was opened, and it was Tang Caiying.

This style of acting, Lin Zhichao will not be surprised by nature, first of all, the door is hidden, not closed; Secondly, the two sisters will not be very clear in the future.

"In broad daylight, can you two pay attention to your image!" Tang Caiying said with a big grin.

The word 'pay attention to the image' came from Lin Zhichao's mouth, and she quickly used it flexibly.

Next, Tang Caiying desperately asked if there was something to hide from her, and she didn't tell herself, it was Lin Zhichao and Tang Caiyun who jointly bullied her.

Lin Zhichao smiled and said nothing, isn't it a good thing that the two sisters have a good relationship?

Tang Caiyun couldn't stand her sister's curiosity, and finally said euphemistically: "I don't know if it's true, it's just that I seem to be pregnant, and you're going to be an aunt!" At this time, she was no longer shy, but happy.

Tang Caiying was stunned for a long time before she said sullenly: "This is to be an aunt?" ”

Lin Zhichao knew that the relationship between the two sisters was very good, and Tang Caiying was not a girl who was messing around, but purely realized that she was going to lose a very pure sister.

So, Lin Zhichao explained: "We are married in 39 days, you also have to be ready, be my sister-in-law, be the aunt of the child in your sister's womb." In the future, the relationship between you and your sister will remain the same, and it will not affect me. ”

Tang Caiying's face turned red, and she immediately said: "I didn't treat you big or small, brother-in-law!" ”

Soon, she was in a good mood and did not have the sadness of 'losing' her sister.
