0176 [Wealthy Family]

"Master, there is a gentleman named Du Yongxiao outside, who came to visit you with gifts, and the eldest young master!"

Uncle En, the butler, stood respectfully at the door of the hall and reported.

As one of the top wealthy families in Hong Kong, the status of the Huo family is not trivial. Especially in the late fifties, it reached its peak, and it was also during this period that the Huo family was targeted by the British government in Hong Kong, and many important businesses were suspended, especially the emerging real estate business, which was almost cut in half.

The old man of the Huo family was sitting on the sofa in the living room, reading the newspaper, and raised his head to look at his eldest son when he heard the words.

Huo Dashao was watching TV happily, and when he saw his father's eyes, he got up and said, "Oh yes, he called before to say that he wanted to give you a New Year's greeting, and I didn't think it was anything, so I asked him to come over." ”

"He's that Inspector Hua?"

"Yes."

"Doing real estate business with you?"

"Yes."

Big Huo looked disdainful, "As I said, the world is sinister, and no one can believe it." What's more, the other party is still a bad guy. ”

"But father, you also said that you can make friends with the three religions and nine streams, and you can slaughter more dogs for righteousness."

Big Guy Huo glared at his son: "I don't learn what I should learn, but I remember very well what I shouldn't learn!" ”

Huo Dashao immediately shut up.

"Okay, if there are guests coming in the future, you have to tell me in advance, our Huo family is a big family, and we have to talk about etiquette, what if there are guests here who can't receive them? What if something is inconvenient at home? Think more about doing things, don't do it casually! ”

"Yes, Father!" Huo Dashao lowered his eyebrows.

Only then did Big Guy Huo instruct the housekeeper Uncle En: "Invite someone in." ”

"Yes, sir!"

……

The Fok family lives in a garden villa on Keton Road in Mid-Levels on Hong Kong Island.

The whole villa covers an area of more than 20,000 square feet, which is almost 2,000 square meters in terms of square meters.

As a luxury residential area in the mid-levels, the cheapest villas here cost more than one million, and the more expensive ones are four or five million.

Du Yongxiao went to the home of Inspector Liu Fu of Zonghua, Liu Fu also lives in the mid-levels, but it is just a "slum" in the middle of the mountains, although it is also a villa, but it is as small as a sparrow, and it is a small thing compared to the one in front of him.

Huo bought this villa ten years ago, and his neighbors were all famous Chinese businessmen in Hong Kong, ship king Bao Yugang, film tycoon Shao Yifu, Dong family, He family, and some ghosts, such as the Shi Huaiya family, the Kadoorie family, and so on.

For these tycoons, like Liu Fu and Lei Luo, they basically spend money to captive wolf dogs, and if necessary, they can spend hundreds of thousands, millions and then re-captive an obedient one.

Because of this, in the eyes of Huo Dajiao, Huo Dashao is inevitably a little unhappy to make friends with a Inspector Hua in such an identity.

Du Yongxiao stood at the door of Huo's house, smoking unhurriedly.

Zhuang Dingxian was waiting for him in the car.

Datouwen stood behind Du Yongxiao with a gift and complained: "This Huo family's row is too big, and it has been notified for a long time, and no one has come out." ”

"There are many rules for wealthy families, so do you think you go to a department store?"

"Our lord invites you in!"

As he spoke, the old butler came out and spoke.

"There is labor!"

Du Yongxiao gave Datouwen a look, Datouwen handed the gift to Du Yongxiao, and he waited outside.

Du Yongxiao took the gift and followed the old housekeeper inside, stopping and stopping, turning a few corners, and then came to the door of the living room.

A home-grown combing woman dressed in white, black tanties, and with big braids hurriedly opened the door when she saw the arrival of the guest.

"Thank you!" Du Yongxiao was just about to step into the living room, so he took the slippers from the combing girl and put them at Du Yongxiao's feet.

Du Yongxiao smiled, took off his leather shoes, changed his slippers, and then brought the gift in.

"Ah Xiao, you're here!"

Huo Dashao was very happy to see Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao nodded at him, and looked at Big Guy Huo who was sitting on the sofa, with a thin figure, a towering skull, an eagle looking at the wolf, and his eyes were staring at Du Yongxiao, as if he wanted to see Du Yongxiao through.

"Mr. Huo, hello!" Du Yongxiao greeted Big Guy Huo with a decent smile.

Only then did Big Brother Huo point to the sofa, "Please sit!" ”

Du Yongxiao handed the gift in his hand to the self-combing girl next to him: "I don't know what to send in a hurry, this is the roasted sweet potato I bought from Wan Chai Pier, it should be a small gift, for you old!" ”

Roasted sweet potatoes?

Huo Dashao was about to roll his eyes, this Ah Xiao was too stingy.

The old butler and the self-combing girl had strange expressions.

Most of the guests who have been visiting have been carrying heavy gifts, especially in the recent New Year, and there are many heavy gifts, such as Du Yongxiao who brought roasted sweet potatoes to give gifts, which is unique.

Huo Da Boss didn't care about Du Yongxiao's gift, but when he suddenly heard the roasted sweet potato in Wan Chai, his eyes lit up, "But the roasted sweet potato of the old grandson of Wan Chai?" ”

"Yes, it's Old Man Sun's. Originally, he had closed his stall during the Chinese New Year, and I ran over to find him, and he did it himself and baked such a cage. ”

"Haha, bring it!"

The self-combing woman was surprised to bring the gift over.

When I opened it, it was a warm box, and there was hot charcoal underneath the box, steaming hot.

I opened the warmer with a cotton cloth, and inside it were eight large, plump, honey-dripping roasted sweet potatoes.

Big Huo couldn't wait to break one open, take a bite, close his eyes, chew, and savor it.

The maid next to him was dumbfounded.

What's the matter, sir?

Huo Dashao was also surprised, I don't know why my father is so out of shape?

Only Du Yongxiao knows that it is all because of these roasted sweet potatoes.

In the previous life, Du Yongxiao read many biographies of Huo Dagang, among which Du Yongxiao was most impressed by the Huo Da Gang when he was young, he ran a boat when he was young, and every time he went to sea, he brushed shoulders with death, and every time he returned to Wan Chai without dying, he had to eat a roasted sweet potato from Lao Sun Tou.

For him, Lao Suntou's roasted sweet potatoes can not only fill his stomach, but also a psychological hint that if he does not die, there will be a blessing in the future.

Indeed, with his "Airship Tai" famous all over the world, the Huo family was also supported by him, and now he is the first among the Chinese businessmen, along with the Bao family, the Dong family, the Xu family, etc.

But since he went ashore and developed, he has never eaten Wan Chai roasted sweet potatoes again, first, his identity does not allow it, and secondly, he has no time, and even the people around him don't know that he has this hobby.

But today, Du Yongxiao packaged the roasted sweet potato in Wan Chai as a "gift" and gave it to him, which couldn't help but arouse Huo's appetite.

After eating half of the sweet potato in one go, Big Brother Huo was satisfied and asked the servant to wrap the remaining half, accept it, and look at Du Yongxiao: "The sweet potato you sent is very good!" ”

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "As long as you like it." ”

Big Huo pointed to the sofa again: "Sit down!" With such scheming at such a young age, it is worth sitting! ”
