182 Come up and fight
Chu Xiangqian has no doubts about the offer of 30,000 yuan, and buying a house with a store has more room for appreciation than a simple house.
I silently calculated in my heart, and then I was startled again.
At this time, 1 small yellow croaker is equal to 208 Hong Kong dollars, and 30,000 is 144 small yellow croaker.
When this was placed in the Republic of China, it was definitely sky-high.
It can be seen how strong the actual value of the US dollar, which is directly linked to gold at this time.
Fortunately, when I think about it, purely based on the price of gold, it is equivalent to more than 2 million when gold is 500 grams in a few decades.
But at that time, the land of this pharmacy alone will cost one or two hundred million.
Chu Xiangqian immediately nodded, "Okay, I still got the money." ”
Not to mention Gong Er, Lao Jiang and the first line of heaven now, even Gong Changqing and Chen Shenglan were surprised.
The old lady hurriedly asked, "Forward, where did you get so much money?" ”
The old man asked, "You don't want to sell the antiques I collected for you, right?" That's not good, I'd rather live in my sister's house, or live in a shack, than let me sell the treasures handed down from my ancestors. ”
"Master, don't guess whether it's good or not", Chu Xiangqian wanted to say that he had changed a lot of small yellow croakers for hunting, but after thinking about it, he had been in the city for less than two months.
Even if a wild boar is exchanged for a gold bar, it is impossible to exchange it for 144 small yellow croakers in two months.
After thinking about it, he said, "Do you remember what I said to you, my sister, and Uncle Jiang last time?" ”
Chu Xiangqian deliberately didn't talk about the cave and the treasure, just to mislead the master and the master.
Gong Changqing, Chen Shenglan and Lao Jiang were stunned for a moment, and then remembered that Chu Xiangqian had killed the people of the 7 island countries.
In this way, when this kid kills some island people, he may get a lot of good things from them or at home.
Thinking about it carefully, Chu Xiangqian got a lot of porcelain and antiques from these island people, and those people must have hidden hard currencies such as gold bars and silver dollars.
Gong Changqing and the old lady were relieved.
Gong Er and the first line of heaven couldn't help but look at Lao Jiang.
Lao Jiang thought about it, and secretly said that he couldn't say this, not even the girl, so as not to be sorry for the trust of Qianqian.
Shaking his head silently, Gong Er and Yitian immediately stopped asking.
Early the next morning, after Chu Xiangqian woke up, he entered the novice village and brushed all the refreshed wild monsters, and then got up and went to the practice room on the first floor to practice boxing.
Waiting for a slight sweat, Lao Jiang greeted with a smile, "Xiao Chu, I bought the famous breakfast here on Hong Kong Island, come and eat some." ”
Chu Xiangqian hurriedly thanked him, and when he entered the restaurant, he saw that Gong Er, Gong Changqing and the old lady were already waiting for him.
After a few words of confession, as soon as he sat down, the old lady served him a bowl of white porridge, and sandwiched shrimp dumplings and roasted wheat for him.
Gong Changqing, who was watching, was faintly jealous.
Chu Xiangqian waited for Gong Er to move the chopsticks, then picked up the chopsticks, sandwiched a shrimp dumpling for the old lady, and then started eating.
At this time, when Gong Er was eating, he glanced at Chu Xiangqian and Chen Shenglan.
The secret sister-in-law was rich and noble in the first half of her life, and she endured hardships in middle age, and when she met this apprentice in her later years, she was also a blessed person.
Thinking about it like this, I can't help but feel a little sad.
The old lady secretly used her arm to bump Chu forward, facing Gong Er Nunu's mouth.
After Chu Xiangqian came back to his senses, he hurriedly used the other end of his chopsticks to clip a shrimp dumpling for Gong Erye, "Uncle Shi, you need to eat something nutritious, if you don't want to eat it, just start tomorrow and order some milk to come back."
If you want to avoid it, then a cup of soy milk every day. ”
After speaking, he looked at Gong Changqing and Lao Jiang again, "The master and the old Uncle Jiang, as well as the master's mother, have to drink, this is to supplement protein." Moreover, we Celestial Empire people have been accustomed to plant protein since ancient times. Drinking soy milk is actually easier to absorb than drinking milk. ”
When the four old fellows heard this, they all laughed.
Seeing Chu Xiangqian's gaze became more and more kind.
After breakfast, I wanted to help the old lady clean up, but even Gong Er refused to let him do it, so he could only go next door with Lao Jiang to ask about the house.
This dry goods shop is indeed not small, but the mainland itself is not full, and it is basically impossible to import all kinds of dry goods from the mainland.
However, with this recent source of goods, if you want to go to Southeast Asia to purchase, the cost of freight alone will have to rise a lot.
As for Hong Kong Island, there is meat, but there are very few dry goods in the mountains.
The owner of this business started the idea of selling the shop and moving the whole family to San Francisco for development.
As soon as he heard that Chu Xiangqian wanted to buy this three-story building, the shopkeeper hurriedly invited him to sit with Lao Jiang, and he hurriedly ran upstairs.
Lao Jiang whispered, "That person just now is the eldest son of the owner of this shop, and I have heard this kid say several times that many people who open restaurants in San Francisco, the United States, make money."
I told you that his family may have sold this house. ”
Chu Xiangqian shook his head secretly, 30,000 Hong Kong dollars for US dollars is 7,500.
This money is indeed a lot in this era, but after going to San Francisco, it is better to say if you buy a store yourself, if you rent a store to do business.
Thirty or forty years from now, it won't even take the new millennium.
Just in the 8 and 90s, the other side will find that the rent will become a gold swallowing beast that swallows most of the benefits.
Then I found out again that I had struggled all my life, and in the end, let alone buy this house on Hong Kong Island.
I can't even pay a tenth of the price.
This is the same as the people who sold their courtyard houses and went abroad in the 80s.
If Chu Xiangqian buys Gong Er's house and the few rooms separated by each other and builds a building with more than ten floors, the future will be billions of Hong Kong dollars, to say the least.
Just collecting rent, there are one or two hundred million a year.
The result of the negotiation was surprisingly smooth, and since Chu Xiangqian knew that the other party's eldest son was in a hurry to free Mi Lijian, of course he would bargain.
All the way from 30,000 to 20,008, the owner of the house, the old man who was already in his 60s, refused to descend again.
Chu Xiangqian probably knew in his heart that the price could no longer be squeezed out.
Finally, he said, "I won't give Hong Kong dollars anymore, why don't we trade for 13 gold bars of 10 taels?" ”
At this time, a gold bar of ten taels is worth 2080 Hong Kong dollars, and 13 bars are 27040.
The father and son muttered, and sure enough, it was the same as Chu Xiangqian expected, but they just bargained for another half an hour, and then pretended to be in pain and agreed.
As for the dry goods in the store, in fact, the family has no other dry goods to sell except bacon.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to sell the house.
This is more suitable for Chu Xiangqian.
After that, it is to invite the middle-aged people, witnesses, and then go to the housing management department to transfer the property.
Chu Xiangqian's side naturally invited a glimmer of heaven, but Gong Er was still a little worried, so he asked Lao Jiang to invite Ye Man and a few people he knew to come over as witnesses.
Chu Xiangqian himself did not forget to hire a lawyer, but asked someone from a barrister's firm if he wanted to do so.
After three days of disturbance, the house was finally his.
Then it was to find someone to come over and tinker with it, and as for redecorating, Chu Xiangqian gave up this idea after thinking about it.
When the house is cleaned up, it is to treat yourself in the restaurant nearby.
The Chinese people, the witnesses, the neighbors and some kung fu teachers that Gong Er knew, and the master who opened the museum to accept apprentices also invited, and finally listened to the words of the first line of heaven, and even the people from the Yau Ma Tei Police Station also issued an invitation.
By the way, among the five invitations to the police station, each invitation contained 100 yuan.
As for the dwarf mules on the road, Yilintian and Lao Jiang said no.
Chu Xiangqian thought about it, it seemed that Sanjiangshui, the apprentice of the first line of heavenly harvest, was the little leader of the Dao.
This guy was still taking people with him at the beginning, and he found a line of heaven to collect fees, but he was punched by a line of heaven and flew several meters.
If it was replaced by Chu Xiangqian's palm a few days ago, it would definitely break all the bones of Sanjiangshui.
But looking at the power of that palm, it can exert force, but it can't be collected, and it lacks a bit of ingenuity.
After Sanjiangshui was beaten, the fees were no longer charged, and he turned his head to worship the first line of heaven as the master.
The first line of heaven probably looks at Sanjiangshui, like Gong Er, for the sake of northerners, and actually accepted him as an apprentice.
On the day of the invitation, a lot of neighbors came, seeing Chu Xiangqian tall and handsome, and hearing that he had gossip and Xingyi inheritance at the same time, Gong Er's eyes couldn't help but change.
In the past, everyone thought that there was no one in the palace family.
But I didn't expect that at the end of last year, Gong Er heard that he would not be able to hold on, and the martial arts community on Hong Kong Island was still regretful.
Unexpectedly, after a New Year, not only did her cousin come to see her from the mainland, but also a nephew came over.
At first, after everyone heard about it, they thought that this cousin and apprentice were worried about the money of the second palace.
Unexpectedly, the day after they came to the door, they spent 27,000 Hong Kong dollars to buy the house next door to Gong Er's house.
Now no one will say anything about eating out of households.
And a woman has her relatives to rely on, and if outsiders want to bully her, they have to weigh it carefully.
And what everyone is most concerned about is the killing moves and stunts in the sixty-four hands of the Gong family handed down by Gong Baosen.
Before the banquet began, someone came to the door.
Chu Xiangqian was greeting guests with a few apprentices of the first line of heaven and chatting together.
When I was chatting with Sanjiangshui about the situation in this area.
A middle-aged man dressed in a horse coat and robe stood up and said to Gong Ergong.
"Master Gong, I don't know if your nephew opens a shop in us to do business, is it just for business, or is it also open for apprentices by the way?"
Gong Er knew that someone was looking for trouble, and sighed in his heart, but it was not good to be Chu Xiangqian's lord directly.
It's just that before she could speak, Chu Xiangqian's side Sanjiangshui jumped up and scolded, "Nima's, our junior brother is here to invite people to eat today."
When is it difficult for you bastard, you have to make trouble here tonight, this is deliberately to find fault. ”
Before the first line of apprenticeship in Sanjiangshui, this guy had more than a dozen junior brothers under him.
Otherwise, it would not be his turn to take someone to the newly opened White Rose Barber Shop to collect fees.
After worshipping a line of heaven as a master, although Sanjiangshui has converged a lot, those younger brothers under him still have to eat.
Therefore, Sanjiangshui did not break away from the gang, and even because after learning martial arts, the fight was more powerful and the power was much greater.
Fortunately, the first line of heaven is still restrictive, and it is no problem to make money, but it is not okay to mess around.
When the younger brothers of Sanjiangshui saw that the boss jumped out, they naturally did not admit it.
rolled up their sleeves one by one, and scolded and scolded in a posture that they couldn't talk about it.
"Sit down, it's your turn to come out." ”
Chu Xiangqian wanted to say that he didn't have the heart to open a museum to accept apprentices.
It's just that things have already started to make trouble, and saying this is tantamount to making people laugh in vain.
And people make it clear that they are looking for their own troubles, if they don't stand up, let alone gain a foothold in the future, and the gossip behind them can also make them not want to do business.
got up and looked at Gong Changqing and Gong Er.
I saw Gong Changqing nodding to Gong Er, "Sister, you are in charge of this matter." ”
Gong Er asked Chu Xiangqian at this time, "Chu Er, what are your plans?" ”
Chu Xiangqian got up and said, "There is no need to open the museum, I am not short of business to support myself." If I accept apprentices, when I meet suitable good seedlings, I also have to pass on the kung fu passed down by my master. ”
This sounds fine to ordinary people, but in the ears of those masters who specialize in opening museums and accepting apprentices, they are faintly laughing at them for having to rely on selling their skills to eat.
Not only did he offend more than a dozen masters, but even Ip Man's expression was not good-looking.
There was only a smile on the corner of his mouth, and he, who opened a barber shop, not only confiscated the filial piety of his apprentice, but also confiscated the apprenticeship fee.
Instead, he took his apprentices together to make money with his hands and technology.
In a sense, the first line of heaven is indeed more supported and loved by the apprentices than those masters who only teach boxing and eating.
And don't look at him and Master Ye are fine, but in fact, because of Gong Er, he looks down on Master Ye a little.
Seeing that Chu Xiangqian even scolded Master Ye, he was very happy in his heart.
Listening to the person who stirred up trouble, he answered and asked, "Then I don't know if Master Chu knows the rules for us to start a sect?" ”
Chu Xiangqian sneered, the difference between accepting apprentices and opening a sect is still very big.
After watching the movie, he knows the so-called rules, that is, he has to go to the ring and compete with other masters.
If it can be recognized by most people, it is naturally qualified to open an apprenticeship.
If none of them can win, then they will definitely not want to open a museum, and no one will go to him to learn martial arts.
Chu Xiangqian said with a smile, "Come on stage and fight, I've heard a lot about this kind of thing, but I've never seen it." Since I came to Hong Kong Island to settle down, I am naturally willing to abide by the rules. ”
After speaking, Chu Xiangqian looked at the middle-aged man who opened his mouth and said, "Look at it like this, does this master want to point out and guide me, a foreigner?" ”
"My surname is Fan, I don't dare to be a guide, and I can let the big guy see the sixty-four hands of the palace family."
Chu Xiangqian completely understood that these people were the tricks of the Gong family.
Unbuttoned his suit, took off his suit and stood in the middle of the hall of the restaurant, and said to Master Fan, "Speaking of which, it's nothing more than my own inadequacy."
If I didn't practice my own kung fu well, I thought that my ancestors couldn't do it, and I put my mind on other people's kung fu. ”
The man was directly torn out by Chu Xiangqian, and there was a shame and anger in his heart.
Put on a posture and remind you when Chu clenched his fist forward.
pounced violently, and it was a heart-piercing kick to Chu Qianqian.
But in Chu Xiangqian's eyes, the other party's movements seemed to have slowed down.
After lifting the leg, the first to come, and the kick that is faster than the opponent is in the socket of his leg.
This is the side of the knee joint, where there are a lot of muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, lymph, arteries and veins, and nerves.
If you go down with one leg, you will ruin one of the other party's legs.
Chu Xiangqian finally left some strength, and after kicking it with one leg, he clenched his fist and slapped it with a fierce palm.
