Late at night.

On the second floor of the Yangtze River Silver, two clerks were resting on the simple 'ground shop', but in fact they were on night duty, guarding the safe on the second floor of the Yangtze River Silver. The store has more than 200,000 assets, and Lin Zhichao has never taken them home, they are all placed in the safe on the second floor, and then the clerk is arranged to be on duty at night.

It's very safe!

First of all, these clerks have family members, and their addresses are recorded;

Secondly, there are several doors in the Yangtze River Silver Horn, all of which are very reliable, after all, they are made of Silver Horn;

Finally, there is a telephone on the second floor of the Yangtze River Yinhao, which is very convenient to call the police.

What's more, the safe is not so easy to open; You can't open it at all without a password, only Lee Shau Kee can open it.

"Brother Fa, do you say that this month's bonus will be higher than last month?" Before going to bed, Chen Jie asked curiously.

The employees of Changjiang Silver are all paid with a fixed salary and a profit-sharing model. There are a total of six people in the store, and they can enjoy 6% of the store's profit every month. For example, if you earn 10,000, the six of them can get a bonus of 600.

Among them, three direct trading clerks, each with a share of 1.5%; The other three are security guards and runners, with 0.5% each.

Therefore, a skilled worker like Chen Jie who knows how to distinguish between gold and silver, and can calculate, has a fixed salary of 120 Hong Kong dollars per month; If you add a share, it can reach 250~350 Hong Kong dollars per month.

This belongs to the high-income class in Hong Kong, of course, who in this industry did not survive from apprenticeship, Chen Jie has also been in the industry for ten years this year; The important thing is that he learned the real skills to be able to deserve this high salary. If you don't pay attention to someone who cheats you (gold impurities), the company will lose a lot of money, and they, as the first person to handle it, will also deduct money. Even, they may be dismissed, but fortunately, the Yangtze River Silver has always been very accurate in looking at gold, and they are not sure, and they can also consult the shopkeeper Li Shauji.

And Li Guifa, who was called 'Fa Ge' by Chen Jie, has been in the industry for 15 years, and he was once a little dissatisfied with Li Shauji's gold identification skills, but in the end he was still convinced.

"Yes, the store business is getting better and better this year, don't worry!" Li Guifa said confidently, and then added: "Don't sleep too hard at night, you can't wake up when you shout!" ”

Chen Jie suddenly laughed innocently, it turned out that there was a night watch, and there was an unknown person who made the door on the first floor. Li Guifa shouted that he didn't wake up several times, and finally simply kicked him awake.

Of course, the two shouted 'We've called the police' from the second-floor window, and the unknown person immediately scattered in fright and disappeared without a trace.

In fact, the police did call the police, but the police came to inquire about it, and if there was no result, it was forgotten.

It was about a few hours later.

Li Guifa woke up suddenly, he was not a sleeping person, and he would wake up at the slightest movement.

He didn't say a word, and directly slapped Chen Jie, very hard.

"Brother Fa, what are you doing?" Chen Jie said confusedly.

"There's movement downstairs, get up!" Li Guifa has taken the lead in opening the window on his behalf.

The two looked down, but they couldn't see the door of the first floor, because there was an aisle in the arcade or tenement building; The aisle is roofed, and on the outer side are pillars.

Because of this, many refugees sleep in this aisle to cover up the rain.

"What are you doing? We've already called the police, and if we don't leave, we'll wait to eat in jail! Li Guifa shouted loudly.

Soon, several people came out of the aisle, and these people were masked.

One looked up at the two on the second floor, and then raised the muzzle of a black hole.

"Bang Bang"

Frightened, Li Guifa and Chen Jie were clever, and hurriedly hid back in the room and quickly called the police.

The next morning.

Lin Zhichao came to the Yangtze River Silver and listened to Lee Shau-kee's report. After the incident happened last night, Lee Shau Kee came forward to solve it - communicating with the police, it was impossible to disturb Lin Zhichao.

"The JC bureau has already started an investigation, after all, this is a shooting, and people should be sent to patrol at night, so those people should not come again." At the end, Lee Shau Kee analyzed.

Lin Zhichao was suspicious: "These people have guns, why do they still act at night?" After all, the gold and money at night have been locked in the safe? ”

Lee Shau Kee suddenly came to his senses, and then said: "It makes sense, listening to Ah Fa and Ah Jie's descriptions, they are like peers who are jealous, looking for trouble with us, and deliberately destroying the gate." ”

"Nine times out of ten! By the way, where the shooting is, let's go and see! ”

Lin Zhichao is very calm, to put it bluntly, these things can't cause him any fear.

The more the enemy is like this, the more he is afraid of his strength.

Today's Lin Zhichao is almost in control of the community, how can he be manipulated by the community?

As a result, Ah Fa and Ah Jie, and then according to the position of the bullet, Lin Zhichao immediately said: "Do things with peace of mind!" Just this quasi-head, at first glance, it is to scare the men. Don't be afraid at night, do what you have to do! ”

Li Guifa immediately said: "Boss, we are not afraid!" It's they who are afraid! Lin Zhichao patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're right!" ”

Li Guifa suddenly felt that his whole body was fluttering, and he was really lucky to be favored by the boss.

"Boss, do you want to go and say hello to the police station, lest those police officers don't do their best?" Lee Shau Kee then said seriously.

He knew that Lin Zhichao had a certain social relationship, and he would definitely be able to know the senior management of Bureau J, so he said this. And last night, those policemen almost came to go through the motions, and they didn't pay attention to it at all.

Lin Zhichao said unhurriedly: "There's no need! Relationships are only used at critical moments, not to mention that money is also needed, so it's not necessary now. Let's look at the situation again, anyway, the Yangtze River Silver is solid, and the purpose of those people can basically be determined. Look again! ”

"Okay!"

Subsequently, the two returned to the second floor, and Lin Zhichao learned about the investment situation as usual.

In the past two months, Lee Shau Kee has once again made a contribution, speculating in gold with less than 700,000 Hong Kong dollars, and obtaining a profit of more than 200,000 yuan.

"It's all industrial gold now, right?"

"Yes, since July 10, the Hong Kong Gold and Silver Exchange Society has adopted ninety percent of four or five industrial gold, and the price has also increased according to the proportion of pure gold, and has now risen to about 650 Hong Kong dollars per tael."

Lin Zhichao nodded, the ban on pure gold trading is because the Eagle Sauce government pressured Hong Kong to abide by the 'Bretton Woods system'; governments or central banks can exchange US dollars for gold in the United States at the official price, and in order to prevent the official price of gold from the impact of free market gold prices, governments need to cooperate with the US government to maintain this official gold price in the international financial market.

In the past few years, the gold in Hong Kong and the mainland has not maintained the control price, and Eagle Sauce naturally wants to put pressure on the British government; As for the mainland, Eagle Sauce can't be closed, and speculation is not allowed in the JF area.

"August is the eve of the liberation of Guangdong Province, and the mainland will flow a lot of gold into Hong Kong, so I think it may be 700 Hong Kong dollars."

The more gold flows into Hong Kong, the hotter the gold speculation becomes. Therefore, Lin Zhichao concluded that August was the peak of gold in Hong Kong, and then it slowly fell, and it may fall a lot by the end of the year.

Regardless of whether it falls or not, some Cantonese gold dealers will not participate in the purchase, and smart people know that gold is smuggled from Aomen and cashed out in Hong Kong. Therefore, in the end, it was the gold merchants and financial circles of the Shanghai Stock Exchange who took over, and most of them were taken.

Lee Shau Kee immediately said: "Okay, I will refer to it." ”

Lin Zhichao added: "It may not be possible to achieve the end of August, at a price of 700 Hong Kong dollars, we will completely retreat!" The store is also preparing to close, after all, the price of gold is going to fall, and the gold in our store will naturally have to be cashed out. ”

Lee Shau Kee has been with Lin Zhichao for so long, so he naturally understands the key, and he admires the boss's clear thinking, decisiveness, and not greed.

"Good!"

Two more days passed, late at night.

The gate of the Yangtze River Silver was smashed again, this time even more violently, Li Guifa hurriedly ran to the window and shouted: "Dead on the street, I called the police, do you know who our boss is, and dare to make trouble!" ”

Although he mustered up the courage to reprimand these bandits, Li Guifa was actually scared, and he didn't even stick out his head, for fear that the bandits would shoot him.

This time, Li Guifa and Chen Jie responded with two gunshots and a scolding.

The bullet hit the wall on the second floor, and then the bandits scattered again.

Forty minutes later, a group of people gathered at the pier in the West Ring, and it was the bandits who had just attacked the Yangtze River Silver.

At the same time, Pan Yaoxing is also there.

I saw him explain: "You go to Omon to live for a while, and I will let you come back and come back." ”

"Yes, big guy!"

Then, looking at the few people who left, Pan Yaoxing showed a smile. As long as you can't find anyone, who knows if you arranged someone to do it?

"After two such actions, Lin Zhichao, the owner of the Yangtze River Silver Number, must have no intention of operating it, right?"

"And it's impossible to suspect that I instructed someone to do it, after all, we have no stakes, and the most likely one is a competitor like Yu Dongchang."

Pan Yaoxing showed a sneer, and said to himself: "Yu Dongchang, you think I'm stupid, I think you're stupid!" ”

He understood that Yu Dongchang was also uneasy and kind, and when he used his gun, he drove away a powerful competitor.

But he didn't think that if he did it seamlessly, he would not doubt himself, and he should suspect that he was also a competitor of Wenham East Street like Yu Dongchang.

"Phew, when I win the Yangtze River Silver Number, I will definitely manage it well and continue to press the Richang Silver Number."

Thinking of such a good thing, Pan Yaoxing went home happily.

In the morning of the same day.

Lin Zhichao came to the Yangtze River Silver again, looked up at the two bullet holes and thought, the door downstairs was also damaged, all this was ultimately jealousy of his peers, or was there another conspiracy?

After a while, the counterparts from Bonham East Street came one after another.

"Lin Sheng, I think you should put pressure on the JC Bureau and solve the case as soon as possible, this group of bandits is really too lawless!"

"That's right, it's really easy to bully when we open a silver gold store!"

Everyone comforted one after another, but in fact, they were removing suspicions.

Lin Zhichao suddenly said: "I appreciate everyone's kindness!" This gang is very cunning, put two shots, smash two and run, JC can't do it. Listening to the refugees in the surrounding area, the group of people were all covered and moved quickly, and the whole process took two or three minutes. ”

After speaking, he observed several of his peers.

Everyone cursed one after another, for fear of suspicion.

Lin Zhichao then said: "Don't be careful, we are all peers, we will definitely not do this kind of villainous thing, otherwise you will do it, and I will do it, wouldn't it be a mess." Right? ”

"Of course! When you enter this trade, you must speak the rules of this trade. ”

"That's it, it's not okay to go wrong for a decent business!"

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Don't worry, I think I believe that this counterpart on Wenxian East Street is probably done by a deserter who came from the mainland recently, and they think that this gold store is easy to rob at night, so they are really stupid." ”

"Haha, yes. Which gold shop doesn't take things home at night, or lock them in safes. ”

After chatting for a few words, Lin Zhichao suddenly said: "It's just right, I don't like this small business anymore, I plan to transfer it out in the near future, if you have friends, you can introduce it to talk in detail!" ”

At this time, Yu Dongchang was also in the crowd, and he asked quietly: "Lin Sheng, with your connections, there is no reason to be afraid of these little ghosts!" ”

Lin Zhichao said calmly: "I'm really afraid of ghosts!" Haha, but I'm really ready to transfer it out so as not to be distracted. As you all know, my business is so big now, and I have long had this intention. ”

Everyone nodded and left.

Subsequently, Lin Zhichao called Lee Shau Kee and said: "Make a signboard for business transfer at the door, and then if someone comes to the door, make an appointment with me, and I will talk in person." However, the signboard at the entrance can only be left for 1 day, and then quickly removed. ”

If someone does this, it means that he is paying attention to Cheung Kong in the dark and can see it for the first time; Therefore, the 'transfer' should not be left for too long, so as not to confuse the public.

Lee Shau Kee immediately said: "The boss has a good trick, and if the business is transferred out, you can still get a sum of money, which is much more cost-effective than directly closing the business!" ”

If it weren't for the boss saying that gold was going to fall, he would have wanted to take over the business of the Yangtze River Silver.

Lin Zhichao also said self-deprecatingly: "It's really stupid to say, I don't know that this business can be worth a lot of money when it is transferred out!" ”

Lee Shau Kee was also a little embarrassed, he didn't remind the boss, which was also a mistake.

However, the boss was so resolute at that time, thinking that the boss didn't care about this little money at all; What's more, after all, the Yangtze River Silver has the word 'Yangtze River', and the boss may not be willing to do so.

After a while, Lin Zhichao chatted with the staff Li Guifa, Chen Jie and others one by one, everything has been prepared, I hope to catch this person this time, Lin Zhichao plans to use him to establish power.

"Really? Lin Zhichao: Does he really intend to sell the Yangtze River Silver Horn? Pan Yaoxing jumped up happily and looked at Yu Dongchang incredulously.

Although he had great hopes, when he really succeeded, he still couldn't hold back and fall into ecstasy.

Yu Dongchang said with a smile: "Lin Zhichao said it in front of our peers, this can still be fake, and he also asked us to introduce it, which is naturally true." However, to be on the safe side, you should ask again every few days. ”

Pan Yaoxing immediately asked, "Why is this?" ”

Yu Dongchang said with an unfathomable expression: "It's too early to go, I'm worried that others will doubt you!" ”

Pan Yaoxing said 'oh', but he was a little unimpressed, and he would go to find out the news tomorrow.

"Brother Dongchang, how much do you think is the right amount of Yangtze River Silver, if you win it?"

Yu Dongchang thought for a while and said: "The transfer definitely does not contain assets, it is just a store, so fifty or sixty thousand Hong Kong dollars is more appropriate." At the same time, you still have to do business, so you need to buy another asset, which is estimated to be another 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is almost an investment of 250,000 Hong Kong dollars. ”

Pan Yaoxing was taken aback, because his budget was only 150,000 Hong Kong dollars, and he almost only had assets of 200,000 Hong Kong dollars.

"This, brother's funds are still short, Brother Dongchang will borrow 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, and I will repay you soon!"

Of course, Yu Dongchang will not borrow, but suggested: "You only need to take out about 50,000 or 60,000 transfer fees, and other assets are not necessarily, 150,000 can also do business, buy and sell gold, foreign exchange exchange, just collect intermediary fees." ”

Pan Yaoxing saw that Yu Dongchang changed the topic, but he didn't want to offend Yu Dongchang, so he said: "Then if I take down this store, I hope Brother Dongchang will usually give you some advice." ”

"That's no problem! What's more, those clerks will definitely continue to follow you as long as you increase your salary! ”

"Of course, I wouldn't have taken over without those clerks!"

After Pan Yaoxing left, Yu Dongchang showed a hint of sneer.

He understands that the reason why the Yangtze River Silver is doing well is because it has a good shopkeeper. And it is impossible for this shopkeeper to work for Pan Yaoxing, because others are relatively rich themselves, and Lin Zhichao is a partner.

At the same time, he didn't think that Pan Yaoxing was suitable for this business, because the atmosphere of the rivers and lakes was too strong.

As a result, the Yangtze River silver business has faded, and there is naturally one less competitor.

This time, he won't blow up and take out one of his biggest opponents. As far as he knows, the store business of the Yangtze River Silver should be able to make a profit of about 15,000 yuan, after all, people often come and go, and only the old silver brand has this kind of treatment.

The next day.

Pan Yaoxing came to the store of the Yangtze River Silver Horn, and after he first observed it, he was overjoyed, because the business was really good.

Then, he walked into the store, deliberately pointed to the door and said, "You have such a good business, you also want to transfer it?" ”

A runner then said: "The boss's family has a big business, so I'm going to turn it around." Sir, who are you? ”

Pan Yaoxing then explained his intentions, and it happened that Lee Shau Kee was upstairs, so he stabilized him. And he also thought that he was leaking, and only said that he happened to pass by and saw it, so he felt that he wanted to talk.

"Okay, since Mr. Pan thinks it's interesting, then I'll talk to the boss for you!" Lee Shau Kee said businessmanlikely.

At this time, Pan Yaoxing immediately said: "Shopkeeper Li, if I take over this business, please continue to be the shopkeeper here, and I guarantee that the salary will be increased." ”

Lee Shau Kee then said with a smile: "Pan Sheng, you may not know that I am a partner here, mainly to speculate for the boss. At the end of the year, you can have a high income, not the kind of amount that you work for. ”

He's already conservative!

"Tens of thousands?" Pan Yaoxing's incredible temptation.

Li Shauji smiled, but did not answer this question, but said: "A few guys from the store may stay, and Pan Sheng can talk about it in detail when the time comes." ”

"Alright! It seems that I can't afford to hire Shopkeeper Li! ”

Lin Zhichao did not come to the Yangtze River Silver until the evening.

After some introduction, Lin Zhichao said: "What did Pan Sheng do before? This line of work is a bit risky, some time ago, someone wanted to rob our silver number at night. Therefore, I will not hide it from you, after all, I am very honest in business! ”

Hearing this, Pan Yaoxing had been fooled so much that he couldn't find the north, he felt that Lin Zhichao was very sincere in business, and it was right; Since the business is transferred, it is really sincere to even talk about this.

However, he was still deliberately surprised, but quickly said: "I'm not afraid, those people only came in the middle of the night, which means that they are a group of gutless rats, so there is nothing to worry about." ”

Lin Zhichao really wanted to ask, how do you know it's the middle of the night?

Say it yourself at night!

At this time, he was already suspicious of Pan Yaoxing.

After all, his acting skills just now were really bad.

Of course, it is also possible that you have a preconceived idea.

However, in the next chat, Lin Zhichao quickly caught some tricks.

"Pan Sheng has never done this business, and he dares to take over?"

"A friend has a point of view!"

"Are you also a peer?"

"Yes"

Soon, Lin Zhichao's brain was running: his peers on Wenham East Street were jealous and found his friend to bewitch, that is, Pan Yaoxing.

Next, Lin Zhichao talked about the conditions again:

First, he will be in business until the end of the first half of August;

Second, the transfer is only for the store, excluding any assets here, and the transfer fee is 80,000 yuan.

Pan Yaoxing was quickly fooled by Lin Zhichao, he looked at the accounts, and in June, the Yangtze River Silver made a profit of 15,000 yuan, and although 80,000 yuan was expensive, it only took more than five months to earn it back.

And this business is stable and risk-free.

"Lin Sheng, can you sell me some of your foreign currency and gold, when the time comes?"

"Of course, there is no problem, and it will be of equal value when the time comes."

"Those employees?"

"Except for the six employees on the first floor, the rest of the staff had to follow me."

"A member of the Gold and Silver Exchange?"

"You need to reapply for this, Chairman He Shanheng only recognizes me as a person, and the people inside only recognize me."

"Yes, yes, I don't want to speculate."

Soon the two sides reached a preliminary agreement, and Lin Zhichao received a deposit of 10,000 yuan.

After Pan Yaoxing left, Lin Zhichao said to Lee Shau-kee: "Eight or nine is not far from ten, this person is doing ghosts!" ”

Li Shauji also nodded and said, "Indeed, he has a lot of doubts!" I know us so well that I don't even say that much information! ”

Lin Zhichao stretched his waist, and then said easily: "Okay! Whether it's him or not, it has nothing to do with us later! ”

Li Shauji nodded, he understood that the boss was already pit this Pan Yaoxing. It's good that the store can earn 15,000 yuan, but it must be him and all the clerks there, and the clerks below will soon run away and return to work under the boss.

At the same time, according to the boss, this business will be gone by the end of the year.

He believed this, because the JF army occupied the whole country, so why is gold so hot?

In short, Pan Yaoxing is a big wrongdoer, and laymen want to eat this bowl of rice, but they don't know how to write it!

The news that Lin Zhichao planned to transfer the Yangtze River Silver quickly spread in the circle, and then many people called to inquire.

Liao Baoshan: "Brother, no matter how big things are, there is no need to be false to those who have no head and no face." You leave it to me, and I will find someone to settle it for you, so that you can be safe and secure in the future. ”

Lin Zhichao: "Brother, I really want to transfer, not for that reason!" You know, I don't speculate much about gold now. ”

Liao Baoshan: "Okay, I thought you were going to open a bank again." ”

Lin Zhichao: "Brother, there is really one thing, can you check a person named Pan Yaoxing for me, yes, he should have been engaged in smuggling before." Well, thank you! ”

Subsequently, He Shanheng, He Hengjian and others called one after another, Lin Zhichao just got rid of everyone to inquire about 'Pan Yaoxing', in the eyes of these people, they all thought that Lin Zhichao was retreating because of the shooting, and Lin Zhichao could only explain them one by one.

He didn't want to carry a reputation for being cowardly.
