Chapter 102 [Joy of the Precious Son]

On the night of July 17, not long after Tang Caiyun lay down, her stomach ached faintly, and she couldn't help but let out an 'ouch'.

Lin Zhichao immediately paid attention: "How is it?" ”

Tang Caiyun held her stomach and said, "My stomach is starting to hurt, and I don't know if the child is about to be born." ”

Lin Zhichao got up immediately, put on his clothes, and said, "Then what are you waiting for, I'll take you to the hospital!" ”

He has already booked a delivery room at the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, a private hospital in Happy Valley, which is near Lam Tin Villas, so it is also more convenient.

In Hong Kong at this time, medical services were mainly provided by charities, and the government invested less in social welfare, so a large number of private hospitals emerged. Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, located in Happy Valley in Wan Chai, is one of the leading private hospitals in Hong Kong, with a strong reputation in paediatrics, cardiovascular and especially obstetrics and gynaecology.

Tang Caiyun said worriedly: "It's windy and rainy outside, do you want to go again tomorrow morning." ”

Hong Kong is located in the subtropics, and this kind of weather is mostly in summer, and Tang Caiyun is afraid that it is dark and windy and rainy.

Lin Zhichao suddenly cried and laughed, and said: "You can think of it, how can you have a child who is afraid of wind and rain!" The car is outside, and I'll call for Xin'er to inform your parents. Let's hurry up and move in, don't delay, I promise not to let you get rained. ”

Seeing Lin Zhichao's orderly arrangement, Tang Caiyun suddenly felt at ease.

Soon, the two families were ready, Lin Zhichao directly picked up Tang Caiyun and began to go downstairs. If it were an ordinary man, he would naturally not dare to take this job, but Lin Zhichao didn't feel much weight at all when he held his wife and children, which was the reason why his physical quality was excellent.

Subsequently, Tang Caiyun was placed in the back seat of the car.

"I'll drive, Xin'er, you take care of your sister-in-law, and Caiying and I will sit in front."

The rest of the people, in Tang Zhongyuan's car, walked towards the Sanatorium & Hospital, which was more than a kilometer away.

No matter how big the formation is, it's because this kid is big.

On the way, Tang Caiyun said: "If I go to the hospital and can't give birth for a while, my husband won't blame me for lying about the military situation, right?" ”

In the middle of the night, the tired two families went out one after another.

Lin Zhichao said while concentrating on driving: "It's a drill, I blame you for what to do!" ”

Tang Caiyun was suddenly beautiful!

Tang Caiying on the side couldn't help but look at Lin Zhichao, and suddenly found a shining point.

After arriving at the hospital, Tang Caiyun was hugged by Lin Zhichao on the mobile bed prepared in advance and drove towards the hospital. Before I came to the hospital, I was already on the phone, so everything was in order.

After a while, the doctor came out and said, "Mr. Lin, Mrs. Zun should give birth tonight and tomorrow morning, arrange to rest in the VIP delivery room first, and then enter the delivery room if there is any situation." ”

Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "Okay"

It's a good thing to have this day on that day, so as not to wait too long in the hospital for delivery.

In the early morning of July 18, Tang Caiyun was in severe pain and was then sent to the delivery room.

In less than 20 minutes, with a crisp cry, Lin Zhichao exhaled softly, and his anxious mood was relieved. He looked at his watch, it was 03:28, and wrote down the number.

The delivery room was pushed open.

"Mr. Lin, congratulations! Mother and son are safe, you are happy to have a precious son! The doctor said happily.

The young man in front of him had heard of the name and deeds, so the baby boy who had just been born was naturally extremely important.

Lin Zhichao was really overjoyed and said, "Thank you, Dr. Li, thank you!" ”

Lin Zhichao, who has always been steady, couldn't help but have a smile on his face, and he couldn't disperse. Wu Wenying, who was on the other side, had already turned to the side to pray, with tears in his eyes.

Naturally, the Tang family was also smiling, and their hearts were nervous.

The next day, in the morning.

Lin Zhichao held Tang Caiyun's hand, his eyes were full of tenderness, there was a stroller on the side, and Lin Ruihuan was sleeping sweetly.

"Husband, I didn't expect it to be produced so smoothly, I was so nervous at first."

"Good work! It shows that this kid is a blessing to our family. ”

Tang Caiyun nodded happily, it was the first time she heard Lin Zhichao say 'family', and naturally she understood the extraordinary significance.

After a while, the family arrived.

Some took breakfast, some took red envelopes, and quickly settled down.

Lin Zhichao distributed red envelopes to the relevant departments of the hospital, so the obstetrics and gynecology department of the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital knew that there was a big guy holding his son today.

In the morning, those who should go to work went to work, those who should go to school went to school, and the hospital left three women, Wu Wenying, Song Qiaoling, and A Xia, to take care of them.

Cheung Kong Industrial.

"Manager Guo, wrap a 20 yuan red envelope for all the staff for me, and put two 10 yuan for each red envelope, just say that the boss is happy with your son today."

Guo Xinxin, the manager of the finance department, immediately smiled and said: "Congratulations to the boss, you are happy to be your son, perfect." I'll arrange it right away! ”

Lin Zhichao smiled and nodded, feeling like he was happy with the sky.

There are about 500 employees of Cheung Kong Industrial, and he only spends 10,000 silver paper, but he is very happy.

But for the workers, the red envelope is equivalent to ten days' wages.

How low are wages in Hong Kong?

At present, Hong Kong's wages are 25~50 Hong Kong dollars, but Cheung Kong's wages are 50~100 Hong Kong dollars, which is definitely a factory with good treatment; The average salary of workers in British-funded companies such as electric lights, shipyards, trams, and gas is 84 yuan, which is about the same.

Moreover, Cheung Kong gets 13 salaries a year, and there are benefits on holidays.

The real sweatshops in Hong Kong are textiles and garments, which are also the two industries with the largest employment. In the previous life, in 1966, the starting point of skilled workers was 9 Hong Kong dollars per day (that is, less than 300 yuan per month), ordinary workers only 4 or 5 yuan, and laborers with a monthly salary of 100 yuan abounded. Industries such as toys, plastics, umbrellas, and batteries are also in the same market.

Therefore, some things are inevitable, and after that, the wages of workers in Hong Kong have been rapidly improved, and the Hong Kong government has begun to pay attention to people's livelihood. Moreover, these things are also an opportunity for Lin Zhichao.

Subsequently, Lin Zhichao called Changjiang Real Estate, Changjiang Garment Factory, and Changjiang Yinhao, and all employees paid 20 Hong Kong dollars.

Suddenly more than 10,000 were spent!

"The boss is very happy, everyone has a big red envelope of 20 yuan, don't stop the work in your hands!" The management came to the workshop to distribute red envelopes, but did not forget to tell the work.

The reason is very simple, the factory order task is heavy, and the machine cannot be stopped.

"Thank you boss, oh my God, 20 yuan red envelope, the boss is generous!"

"20 yuan big red envelope, the boss should get rich, he should hold his son!"

"The boss has a successor, and I will strive to have another son next year and have a few more."

The whole workshop was filled with joy, and then the sky of the whole factory was filled with a sense of wealth and wealth.

In the office, Lin Zhichao has calmed down and worked seriously. He checked Cheung Kong's accounts and found that Cheung Kong had a full cash flow of HK$1.32 million on its books, and the debt was only HK$1.725 million (including interest) from the Bank of East Asia.

Cheung Kong has paid off the machine money of Bourne Machinery (1.15 million), the construction of the Sing Tao factory (500,000), the construction of the Tsuen Wan factory (200,000), and the purchase of a piece of land of 120,000 square feet (500,000).

This is equivalent to Cheung Kong's net debt of only 400,000 Hong Kong dollars, and there are many assets: a 240,000-square-foot factory in Tsuen Wan, a factory in Sing Tao, and a large number of machinery and materials.

After thinking about it, Lin Zhichao called Guo Xinxin.

"Boss, everyone outside is congratulating you, everyone is so happy!" Guo Xinxin said with a smile.

Lin Zhichao nodded and said, "I won't go, I have received all the blessings." By the way, I want to convert Cheung Kong's funds into US dollars as much as possible, so you can arrange it. Calculate how much money can be exchanged without affecting the operation of the factory; Funds are withdrawn from BEA, then exchanged in US dollars at foreign banks and deposited into US dollar accounts at BEA. ”

I won't exchange the Bank of East Asia's US dollars and take care of Jian Dongpu. After all, if Lin Zhichao first exchanged US dollars and then converted them into Hong Kong dollars, Jian Dongpu would have to lose some of it.

Guo Xinxin immediately understood that the boss was worried about the depreciation of the pound, so he would arrange it like this.

"Okay, I'll arrange it right away!"

"Hmm"

In fact, Cheung Kong also has a US dollar account, after all, the products are sold to the United States.

After Guo Xinxin left, Lin Zhichao calculated an account, assuming that 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars were converted into US dollars (including later exchanges), then it would be about 300,000 US dollars; Once the pound depreciates by 30%, it becomes about 5.5 Hong Kong dollars for 1 US dollar, which is 1.2 million Hong Kong dollars into 1.65 million Hong Kong dollars.

Of course, this does not calculate the handling fee, but in any case, it easily earned more than 300,000 Hong Kong dollars.

As long as you spend money in Hong Kong and the UK, you can count it as profitable. But even if you spend money in other countries, it is equivalent to avoiding a 30% depreciation, and it is still earning.

The next day, in the evening.

Lin Zhichao came to the Hong Kong Sanatorium and Hospital, picked up Tang Caiyun and Lin Ruihuan's mother and son from the hospital, and the family returned to Lantian Yayuan lively.

Lam Tin Villas has become a symbol of Hong Kong's high-end private housing estates, not only because Happy Valley is originally a wealthy area, but more importantly, the property management and public facilities of Lam Tin Villas are quite powerful, so the housing prices in the estates have risen to about HK$45 per square foot, which is similar to the price of luxury homes in Mid-Levels.

After all, in this era, people generally have no sense of security, especially some warlords and their descendants who have taken refuge in Hong Kong from the mainland, wealthy businessmen who carry a lot of property, and rich people who wash their hands in the wrong place.

The eight security guards of Lantian Yayuan are on duty 24 hours a day, and they are wearing majestic uniforms, which is definitely a deterrent; At least, once there is an abnormality, the alarm can be quite timely.

At night, in order not to affect Lin Zhichao's work the next day, Wu Wenying put Lin Ruihuan in his bedroom; If the child is hungry, come over and ask Tang Caiyun to feed.

"Husband, I've gotten a lot fatter!" Tang Caiyun snuggled in Lin Zhichao's arms and said coquettishly.

She understands a truth, Lin Zhichao is very 'sexy', so she is worried about 'fat', but on the other hand, she is fed by her mother-in-law and mother.

Lin Zhichao followed Tang Caiyun's hair and said: "According to modern medicine, the body will recover after thirty days after giving birth; So in recent times, you have been recuperating. After that, you can use some exercise and a reasonable diet to restore your previous appearance, but I can guide you. ”

After all, he has experienced it once, how can Lin Zhichao not understand the truth.

But in Tang Caiyun's opinion, her husband is very caring, and he must have learned from a doctor or read books; In this way, it shows that this man is very careful and loves himself.

"Hehe, if you can't get back to your previous appearance, I'll look for you!" Tang Caiyun said with peace of mind.

"No problem, I'm afraid you won't have the determination and perseverance when the time comes!"

"Look down on me, don't worry, in order to capture my husband's heart, I can suffer anything."

Good guys, what is this alluding to?

To tell the truth, Lin Zhichao is definitely a model of a rich man in this era, even if he goes to entertainment venues to accompany customers (many, such as the zipper industry), he will only arrange for guests, and he will guard himself like jade.

Even if it is the issue of marrying his aunt's wife, Lin Zhichao is also very cautious, he has to consider that the family is not chaotic and harmonious. Therefore, Tang Caiying is a good choice, of course, it also needs to be laborious.

In the Richang Silver on Wenham East Street, its boss Yu Dongchang watched the Yangtze River Silver in and out not far away, and was suddenly a little distressed.

"The business is so big, and you have to grab food from us, you can really make any money, die Shunde!" Yu Dongchang cursed in his mouth.

He's furious!

The Yangtze River Silver is diagonally opposite the Richang Silver Brand, and the Yangtze River Silver Brand, with the loud signboard of the "Yangtze River" (group effect), also relies on a good reputation (Lee Shau Kee has a hand in business), so the business of the store is getting better and better, and it has become the silver gold store that has come after Wenham East Street.

As everyone knows, this move has stimulated many people, but the scene when Lin Zhichao opened is surrounded by these people's minds.

At that time, it was a gathering of famous businessmen, and Lin Zhichao was the benchmark of the Shunde Chamber of Commerce and the Friendship Association, and it was rumored that Lin Zhichao and He Dong and Jian Dongpu were New Year's friends, so everyone could only keep it in their hearts and dare not make small moves.

A friend walked in and greeted heartily, "Brother Dongchang, what are you looking at?" ”

Yu Dongchang retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "Brother Yaoxing, just take a look, are you here?" ”

Pan Yaoxing looked inside the Richang Silver and found that the business was average, so he immediately showed a suspicious look, but then said: "It's not that I heard that you can make money by speculating in gold now, so I want you to give me some guidance and give me a way to do legitimate business." I'm also getting older and don't want to do anything risky. ”

Yu Dongchang looked at Pan Yaoxing, he knew that this friend had a close relationship with the 'dock gang' Dongfu, and he himself made a fortune from smuggling. Now that I want to go ashore, I am suddenly a little curious.

"You also know that you can make money by speculating in gold, so you should also understand that smuggling gold is also very profitable now, so it makes no sense that you want to change careers at this time?"

Pan Yaoxing's face turned red suddenly, but then he smiled bitterly: "Smuggling gold does make money, but now there is a group of G Army routs on the sea, and they are using the signboard of 'Da Tianer' to rob smuggling gold ships, and no one will recognize it." ”

Yu Dongchang gasped, although Dongfuhe is a gang, in the final analysis, it is a group of dock workers, and smuggling is okay. Compared to those 'regular troops', it can be said that they are vulnerable, and recently there have been many regular soldiers in Hong Kong, who have left their guns and scattered on the streets of Hong Kong, becoming one of the refugees, and also becoming a factor of instability on the streets. And some of them didn't even lose their guns, and they were so dangerous that even the police dared to kill them.

Suddenly, Yu Dongchang had an idea and thought of a way to kill people with a knife.

"Let's talk upstairs!"

"Okay, sure enough, it's right to find Brother Dongchang!"

Pan Yaoxing was happy, he was now ashore and urgently needed a way to make a fortune; And this Yu Dongchang is the boss of the old silver number, and there must be many ways.

When he arrived upstairs, Yu Dongchang made tea for Pan Yaoxing unhurriedly, and suddenly Pan Yaoxing was so anxious that Pan Yaoxing was restless.

Seeing Pan Yaoxing like this, Yu Dongchang suddenly became more sure.

After taking a sip of tea, Pan Yaoxing couldn't wait to say: "Brother Dongchang, I don't know what you want to instruct my brother to do, if it can be done, I will definitely thank you!" ”

Yu Dongchang waved his hand and said, "What do I want you to thank, how many years of friends!" It's just that this thing has some risks, I don't know if you dare to do it? ”

Is there still a risk in doing business?

Pan Yaoxing was stunned.

He still gritted his teeth and said, "You say! I'll listen! ”

Yu Dongchang said with a smile: "We have a family Changjiang Yinhao across from us, and we have the same business as Richang Yinhao, but their business is much better than ours. If you want to go ashore, you can try to take this silver number and run it yourself, only the store business is at least 10,000 yuan a month. ”

Pan Yaoxing was suddenly excited, and immediately said: "Brother Dongchang, I have no grievances with you, why do you still harm me?" I know that their boss is Lin Zhichao, although others are young, but they have a deep background, with Jian Dongpu and He Dong as backers, and friends with Chaozhou Gang and Hang Seng Yinhao, and Shunde Chamber of Commerce as the backing. Even if he has nearly a thousand workers in Tsuen Wan, he is by no means something I can offend. ”

Yu Dongchang was stunned, he didn't expect Pan Yaoxing to understand it so clearly, even better than himself.

However, he quickly devised a new strategy, saying, "You know only one thing, you don't know the other." Although the Yangtze River Silver is Lin Zhichao's industry, in fact, Lin Zhichao does not participate, but hands it over to a shopkeeper to take care of. This shows that others may not care about this industry. ”

Pan Yaoxing still shook his head and said, "I can't afford to provoke~ I can't afford to provoke!" ”

Yu Dongchang continued: "You listen to me! As far as I know, this Lin Zhichao intends to fade out of speculation in gold, so it is estimated that he also intends to put the Yangtze River Silver Plate. Of course, if you go directly to the door, I'm afraid you'll be kicked out. But if you find some people and make some moves at night, for example, in this way, no matter how capable Lin Zhichao is, he can't find out about you, at most he thinks that his peers are jealous of him. In this way, he originally intended to fade out, and he might put it out. At that time, you will take the money down, just to do gold trading and foreign exchange in the store, which is enough for you to earn enough! ”

He is foolish, and anyone with a little brain knows that this plan is full of loopholes.

But Pan Yaoxing, who has been smuggling at sea all the year round, has no brains.

After listening to it, I was already thinking about it.

Seeing this, Yu Dongchang added another fire and said: "As long as you find someone to scare the shopkeepers of the Yangtze River Silver at night, the matter is almost to let these people go to Aomen to avoid the limelight, no matter how powerful he Lin Zhichao is, he can't find you." As for the success or failure in the future, what is the difference? In short, once Lin Zhichao intends to put it on the market, I will be the first to inform you, and when the time comes, you will take the money to buy it, and it will be above board. ”

Speaking of this, Pan Yaoxing was already moved and asked, "Is the store business of the Yangtze River Silver really profitable?" ”

Speculating on gold may still be risky, but if the faΓ§ade business is very profitable, it is really worth the risk.

"Very profitable, so earning that our peers are jealous! According to their passenger flow, the monthly profit is at least 15,000 or more, and you also know that there are many Weishui guys coming to Hong Kong from the mainland, and they need silver numbers to find exchange and gold trading. ”

Pan Yaoxing nodded, and said: "But if you can earn 15,000 a month, how much money do you have to make a profit?" When the time comes, I hope Brother Dongchang will borrow some. ”

Yu Dongchang was immediately stunned, but quickly reacted.

His idea was that Pan Yaoxing would take over, and then the business would definitely fall, and he would have fewer opponents; Therefore, if it is less, it can be considered.

"Although it makes money, but after all, it's such a trouble, right, it must have to depreciate a lot, you have no problem. Remember, when you transfer, be sure to keep the staff of the store, so that you can save everything and just count the money. ”

At this time, Pan Yaoxing was already excited and nodded hurriedly.

"In the future, I hope Brother Dongchang will give me advice."

"Communication"

After Pan Yaoxing left, Yu Dongchang sneered.

"Regardless of whether this Pan Yaoxing succeeds or not, the Yangtze River Silver is in constant trouble! If it succeeds, it will be impossible for Pan Yaoxing to keep Lee Shau-kee's shopkeeper, and at that time, with only a few cats and dogs, the business will not plummet. ”

"It's better to have a fool as an opponent than the current situation!"

"This matter has never involved me; I have nothing to lose whether it succeeds or fails. ”

"I'm really smart!"
