On the weekend, the Lin family and the Tang family had dinner at a high-end restaurant in Central.

Regarding the recent 'Wang Tongyuan incident', Tang Zhongyuan felt that his son-in-law was a real business war, not only defeated the competitor, but also directly made the competitor lose his wife and soldiers.

During the banquet, Tang Zhongyuan said with a smile: "This Wang Tongyuan is also right, buying a batch of second-hand machines, and inviting fellow villagers and old people to visit with great fanfare. didn't think about it, it was exposed by Brother Bingyuan on the spot, and the guests immediately understood the reason for the incident, and the comedy turned into a farce. Haha"

Wang Tongyuan and Tang Bingyuan were originally textile rivals, the kind of fierce competition, but they deliberately invited Tang Bingyuan; It is conceivable that Wang Tongyuan's purpose at that time was to 'declare war'.

Lin Zhichao shook his head with a smile and said, "It's really too much for my subordinates to do things. ”

It was indeed Wang Liang's idea, although Lin Zhichao agreed.

Tang Zhongyuan immediately said: "It's very fair, it's not too much at all, it can be said that it is a dignified defeat to the Hong Kong zipper factory." ”

What are you kidding, although this level of business war can be regarded as a classic, it is not insidious at all.

Several women and girls were also very interested in this topic, and asked Lin Zhichao about the origin of the matter, Tang Zhongyuan frowned, meaning that there are no women who 'interfere in politics'.

Lin Zhichao doesn't think so, Tang Caiyun, Tang Caiying, and Lin Xin'er can all work in the family business in the future, which is equivalent to an extra layer of insurance, which is equivalent to the 'Taifu Fuchen' he is looking for for his son.

So, he told the story!

"Wow, wouldn't this not only sell the machine that should have been discarded in the warehouse, but also make this Wang Tongyuan merchant lose millions. Brother-in-law, you are really murderous, and you are still punishing! Tang Caiying's eyes were shining, and she said excitedly.

"Chaeyoung! How to speak! Song Qiaoling hurriedly warned her second daughter.

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "It's okay! This time my subordinate has indeed gone too far! "That's right.

Tang Caiying was suddenly proud, thinking that this brother-in-law likes herself, and she is still very good, and she protects herself everywhere! But she also has troubles, this brother-in-law is lustful, and occasionally takes advantage of her, pulls hands, hugs her waist, and has a thick skin.

I haven't figured it out yet!

Next, Tang Zhongyuan said: "Next week, I will go to the United States to inspect and buy modern sewing machines such as electric car clothes, so I will trouble Zhichao to take care of my family for me." ”

Lin Zhichao said with a straight face: "Father-in-law, don't worry, I'm here." ”

This time to the United States, Tang Zhongyuan will purchase 500,000 Hong Kong dollars of various advanced sewing machines. In this way, Cheung Kong Garment will become the most advanced factory in Hong Kong, and its competitiveness will be greatly increased in 1950~1953.

Because other garment factories do not have advanced garment-making electric equipment, their natural disadvantages are highlighted.

At the same time, Lin Zhichao can also start to develop the brand of 'crocodile shirt' and enter the brand clothing industry.

At the end of dinner, the two families took four cars to prepare for the return to Lam Tin Villas.

In the car, in the back row are Lin Zhichao and the Tang sisters, and Lin Xin'er and Wu Wenying are holding their children in another car.

This combination of car rides can't help but have some deep meaning.

Father and son are not in the same boat, this is the basic truth.

And Tang Caiying wants to take a car with her sister, obviously because she has a good impression of accepting Lin Zhichao, but the little girl doesn't fully understand, or she has concerns.

Lin Zhichao whispered a few words in Tang Caiyun's ear, which immediately aroused Tang Caiying's dissatisfaction, and Tang Caiyun was a little shy.

"What are you two talking about?"

Tang Caiyun's face showed a hint of embarrassment, first ignored Tang Caiying, leaned into Lin Zhichao's ear and whispered: "Husband, is it okay to borrow Xin'er?" ”

Lin Zhichao immediately said: "Wife, I feel guilty like this, that's my own sister." ”

Tang Caiyun nodded hurriedly! She forgot about it.

Tang Caiying was suddenly a little unhappy, this brother-in-law also said that he liked himself, and he dared to whisper to his sister, hum, he wouldn't let him touch it next time.

At this time, Tang Caiyun quietly leaned into her sister's ear, and then said: "Caiying, can I borrow your summer school uniform for one night, I envy you." When your sister came to Hong Kong, she didn't study anymore! ”

Tang Caiying didn't react for a while, and said, "No problem! But sister, what did you just whisper? ”

Tang Caiyun was stunned, her sister was so smart, but she was still a little tender after all.

"It's a matter of husband and wife, why are you a little girl asking this! By the way, don't let your parents know about borrowing school uniforms, so as not to make them ashamed. ”

"Hmm"

Tang Caiying's face turned red suddenly, and she finally understood why she avoided her, it turned out to be her brother-in-law and sister's 'ah-huh-ha-hmm'.

Cut, I'm not happy to know yet!

Soon after returning home.

Tang Caiying took her school uniform skirt and knocked on her sister's bedroom, but it was her brother-in-law who ushered in her.

"Brother-in-law, where is my sister?"

"Washing"

Lin Zhichao quietly covered the door, and then blocked Tang Caiying's way.

"What are you going to do? I'm here to deliver clothes to my sister. Tang Caiying finally knew that she was afraid.

She has a cheerful and lively personality, and she is quite bold, but under Lin Zhichao's eyes, she will look 'scared'.

Lin Zhichao took a step forward, hugged Tang Caiying's waist, and said, "Caiying, you are so beautiful today!" ”

Under his gaze, Tang Caiying finally lowered his 'fighting' gaze and said with a twist: "Brother-in-law, you can't be in a hurry about this matter, I'm still studying!" ”

Lin Zhichao immediately stopped and said, "Okay" and then let go.

Tang Caiying realized that she had been 'fooled', and immediately showed a brutal and vicious expression.

"Don't think about it!"

Lin Zhichao spread his hands, meaning, you have been exposed just now.

Tang Caiying suddenly made a move, pinched Lin Zhichao, and then threw the bag containing the clothes on the bed, and then snatched the door.

"There's a play!" Lin Zhichao said to himself.

As it stands:

Tang Zhongyuan and his wife have a non-interference and acquiescing attitude. The reason why the two of them are like this is because Lin Zhichao can give the Tang family a lot of help in their careers; And, Lin Zhichao is good enough and strong strength.

Tang Caiyun vaguely said that she agreed, provided that Lin Zhichao wanted to do a good job in the relationship between the parties and could not force it.

As the protagonist, Tang Caiying's attitude is also changing, and she slowly likes her brother-in-law.

There is hope for everything!

Fortunately, Lin Zhichao is not in a hurry!

After a while, Tang Caiyun walked in and learned that the clothes had been delivered.

She immediately said: "When the girl came in, did she bully her?" ”

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "What am I bullying her for, it's my sister-in-law, it's too late to spoil her!" ”

Tang Caiyun looked at Lin Zhichao playfully, and then said: "We have to make three chapters of the law, and it is not impossible for you to marry Caiying, but you must do three things." ”

At this time, Lin Zhichao didn't pretend anymore and said, "Those three points? ”

Tang Caiyun immediately gave Lin Zhichao a pink fist, and said coquettishly: "You still say that you don't want to marry someone else?" ”

Lin Zhichao grabbed it, hugged it into his arms, and said: "Good wife, I know that you are virtuous and generous, and I don't dare to provoke flowers outside." But looking at the beautiful Chaeyoung every day, I can't be indifferent, so you sisters will follow me in the future, I will handle your relationship well, and I will not let you be wronged. ”

Marry two first, at least these two are legal.

Tang Caiyun leaned on Lin Zhichao's arms and said faintly: "I know, Caiying is cheaper than others, so it's better to be cheaper than you." ”

Although she was unwilling, she understood that since Lin Zhichao dared to do it, she would definitely achieve it. So, she couldn't stop it. And her sister's attitude made her feel that this thing was going to be done.

Therefore, it is better to push the boat with the current.

Immediately, Tang Caiyun left Lin Zhichao's arms, and said: "Three chapters of the law: first, my parents, Caiying, and mother-in-law, the relationship between these three parties must be good, and do not affect family unity; Second, we must treat our sisters equally in the future, and we must not favor one over the other; Third, no other woman can be brought into the house. ”

Lin Zhichao immediately said: "I promise!" ”

Although the third point is a bit harsh, it just said that it would not be brought into the house, and obviously Tang Caiyun did not say anything.

After all, she understands that Hong Kong's laws allow it.

Tang Caiyun immediately said: "Go take a bath, I'll change your school uniform, but you are not allowed to think about that little girl tonight, you can only think about me." ”

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Don't worry, I just want to see you look in your school uniform." ”

Afterwards, he happily went to take a bath.

Tang Caiyun, who was left, blushed, she thought of a possible thing, this man is so powerful in that regard, and their sisters are afraid that when the time comes

The next morning, Tang Caiying asked about the school uniform skirt, and Tang Caiyun immediately said that it had been washed off.

Tang Caiying immediately said: "Sister, do you dislike me?" After speaking, he held Tang Caiyun's arm and coquettishly.

Tang Caiyun was suddenly embarrassed, her own man last night was the last one!

How can you do it without washing!

"Why, I wore it twice and accidentally got dirty."

A new week.

The news of the recruitment of seafarers by the Global Maritime Academy spread quickly through the newspapers, although it was called recruiting cadets, but it was a monthly living allowance of 40 Hong Kong dollars; After completing the 3-month course, you can officially become a seafarer in Global Shipping, with a salary of more than 100 Hong Kong dollars.

Kowloon, in the aisle of a certain arcade, there were several young people asleep, and suddenly, they were kicked awake.

"Look for death!" For a while, everyone got up one after another, looking at the people who kicked them with dissatisfaction.

You must know that they are all some G Navy routs, because they are unwilling to follow Lao Jiang to Taiwan Island to suffer, and they are worried about reprisals, so they came to Hong Kong for refuge. As soon as the weapon was lost, he came to Hong Kong, slept in the aisle,

As for jobs, they are hard to find, many people in Hong Kong are unemployed now, and hundreds of thousands of people are unemployed; The Hong Kong government and charities have relief food so that they will not starve to death on the streets.

If you are really hungry, you can only find someone with a gun and do some business together.

"Still sleeping with a P, I heard that there is a maritime academy in Tsuen Wan that wants to recruit students, brothers, hurry up and take a look!"

"You're sick in the head, we can't even afford to eat, and we still have the money to be a student. What's more, Lao Tzu became a navy at the age of 16 and will be a cadet? ”

"I think you're sick in the head! You don't have to forget it, this trainee has a living allowance of 40 Hong Kong dollars per month, and after 3 months of training, he has a seafarer job of more than 100 Hong Kong dollars. There are only 80 others, and it's one thing to choose you or not! ”

Hearing this, a young man named Wang Fei immediately said: "And this good thing, I have to go and see it immediately, you guys sleep slowly!" ”

"Sleep P, I have to hurry up and see, it's too difficult to find a 30 Hong Kong dollar monthly job now, there is still this good thing today, let's go, let's go and see together." Don't forget each other! ”

When everyone came to Changjiang Industrial, they were immediately frightened by the scene in front of them, only to see a sea of people and police to maintain order.

Wang Fei said in shock: "There must be almost a thousand people!" 1,000 people to compete for 80 jobs, this is true, I was pulled away by a mule or a horse back then. ”

"Damn, it can be the same!"

"It's just, hurry, hurry, hurry."

There are a total of six interviewers at Worldwide Shipping, and they will get a brief overview of the candidates.

"Have you ever been a seafarer? Where has it been done? ”

"Yes, I was a soldier in the original navy, and I will have a lot of anchors, rudders, moorings, loading and unloading."

"Where's the people? Are there any relatives in Hong Kong? ”

"From Shanghai, there is an elder brother who is also here today."

Soon, the interviewer, hands the interviewer a piece of paper and a loaf of bread.

"After passing the preliminary selection, I will have an interview tomorrow, and only if I pass will I officially become our student. Remember to bring this piece of paper with your name on it, otherwise it won't be valid if you come. ”

"Okay, I'll be here on time."

For a while, everyone applauded, but I didn't expect this job to be applied for, and the bread was returned!

If you don't give it, Lin Zhichao is also worried that there will be problems, so he will give each person a bread of 3 cents.

Following.

Lin Zhichao interviewed in person, and through a four-hour work, 80 students were finally selected. There are people from all provinces, this is Lin Zhichao's routine, refusing his seafarers to form gangs.

Modernize and militarize the management to train this group of seafarers; Then with corporate culture and humanistic care, we will influence this group of seafarers.

Cultivating a group of high-quality seafarers is the original intention of the Global Maritime Academy. Although this will be a little larger, but there are also many benefits, and when he competes with his Hong Kong counterparts and European and American shipping in the future, his seafarer quality will not lag behind.

As for the increase in costs, Lin Zhichao is not worried at all.

He also has the advantage of doing shipping, that is, he can master the 'cyclicality' and make a lot of money.

Standing in front of the 80 students, Lin Zhichao looked at them back and forth, under his strong eyes, even if he was a sailor before, he had to lower his head now.

"I don't care if you know each other or not, or if you have a group of brothers outside, but as long as you work in my company, the first thing is that you are not allowed to form gangs, otherwise you will be expelled."

"Everything in this society is fake, only money is real. As long as you get on my ship, you will have a higher salary than 90% of Hong Kong, and it will not be a problem to marry a wife and support your family in the future. ”

"If you are willing to work hard and learn, you may be promoted in the future, return to the Global Maritime Academy, learn a higher level of knowledge, become a manager, become a captain, get a high salary, and live a privileged life. Got it? ”

Both soft and hard, painting bread to satisfy hunger.

Of course, it is not a cake painting, and seafarers are the highest-paid jobs in Hong Kong. In the 50s, the salary of Hong Kong seafarers could reach about 200 Hong Kong dollars, and in the early 60s, it could reach 300 Hong Kong dollars.

Of course, in the early sixties, the average salary for seafarers in the United States was $2,000. At an exchange rate of 1:6, it is 40 times that of Hong Kong seafarers. Seafarers' wages have also risen in Japan and Greece, much higher than those in Hong Kong.

In addition, Hong Kong has a very low tax rate and is a free trade port, so it has become a 'tax haven' for shipowners.

"Understood!"

"Didn't you eat?"

"Understood!"

As everyone's emotions were mobilized, Lin Zhichao came to a student again and sorted out his collar for him.

"What's your name?"

"Boss, my name is Wang Fei, from Shanghai."

"Very good, you have to study hard, otherwise it will be the dried salted fish."

Wang Fei said excitedly: "Yes, I must study hard!" ”

When the others saw this, their hearts were touched and excited.

Next, Lin Zhichao introduced four teachers, including a foreigner (equipped with a translator), to impart professional navigation knowledge.

A good team of seafarers can save a lot of money. For example, the maintenance and repair of ships can save a lot of money.

The trainees he recruited were actually equivalent to journeymen, but now they need to learn more systematically.

Lin Zhichao recruited seafarers with great fanfare and established the Global Maritime Academy, which shocked four cities in Hong Kong.

Some people took it as a joke and joked: "If this kind of trick can be successful in shipping, I am willing to climb back and forth on the dock a few times." ”

So, my friend recorded this sentence and spread it widely in the circle of friends.

This incident even alarmed the Hong Kong government and the Hong Kong governor.

After Ge Hongliang heard the assistant's words, he said with a smile: "I remember this Lin Zhichao, a very capable businessman, who has done very well in real estate and industry. Now he has entered the shipping industry again, which shows that he is very confident in our London, so he will develop in Hong Kong, and he is a Chinese worth wooing. ”

The assistant nodded and said, "Yes!" According to the investigation, his background is very simple, he is a self-made entrepreneur, and he has no political background. At present, his Yangtze River zipper factory is also opening a branch factory in Xingdao, and there are seven or eight hundred workers in the entire factory. ”

Ge Hong nodded and said, "He is good friends with Sir Ho Tung, and if the shipping business is also done, I don't mind conferring the honor of Justice of the Peace on him." ”

The assistant was taken aback, such a young Justice of the Peace was really extremely rare.

Xu Aizhou was having dinner with friends, and during the period, naturally some people talked about things closely related to 'Xu Chuanwang'.

"Xu Sheng, this Lin Zhichao recruited fifty seafarers in one go, it seems that he is preparing to do a big job, and he will challenge you as the king of ships?"

Xu Aizhou then smiled and said, "What kind of ship king am I!" There are many ship kings in the Shanghai faction who came to Hong Kong this time, such as Dong Chuanwang, and his father-in-law Gu Chuanwang. I'm old, and after a few more years of boating, I can think about going ashore! ”

"Haha, Xu Sheng is too modest, when you became famous, they were not yet famous. Today, you are still firmly on the throne of the ship, I think this Lin Zhichao will buy two boats of more than 1,000 tons at most. ”

Xu Aizhou smiled and said nothing, but he didn't say bad things about others.

When friends saw this, they didn't talk about it.

Global shipping is making a lot of fanfare, and before there is a ship, it will take the lead, and it is naturally full of topicality.

On the whole, everyone does not think that Lin Zhichao can make a difference, at most he is a small boat owner, and he will no longer have the glory of real estate and manufacturing.

After all, if everything is done successfully, then Lin Zhichao may not be evil.

And if he wants to be the king of the ship, he is obviously a little younger!
