Chapter 268: Learn to speak Mandarin for me

Li Ye took Wang Jianqiang and Li Dayong through the Luohu port and was warmly greeted by Pei Wencong.

"Mr. Li, I can look forward to you, this time you must stay on Hong Kong Island for a few more days, so that I can entertain you well."

Pei Wencong held Li Ye's hand with both hands and shook it vigorously, as if he had grabbed a cash cow and wanted to shake off a rain of money.

Actually, that's exactly what happened.

The reason why Pei Wencong even used the honorific title of "you" for Li Ye was because some time ago, the Hang Seng point finally fell to around 700 points, and there were violent fluctuations.

Luo Runbo asked Li Ye's opinion, Li Ye analyzed it, and told Luo Runbo that he could gradually deliver the harvest, Pei Wencong, the guy who followed behind and bet heavily, rubbed Li Ye's "luck" solidly. ”

Li Ye didn't know how much money Pei Wencong had invested, but he himself earned more than 70 million Hong Kong dollars, no matter how cautious Pei Wencong was, he must have earned tens of millions of dollars.

Li Ye and Pei Wencong finally ended shaking hands, and said teasingly: "What, when I bought a big villa on the top of the mountain, do you want me to stay for a few more days to show off?" ”

Hearing Li Ye's ridicule, Pei Wencong not only didn't get angry, but laughed out loud.

"Oh, where do I dare to show off in front of Mr. Li, purely to do my best to fulfill the friendship of the landlord, the friendship of the landlord."

"Let's go! Take me to see your hilltop ocean view mansion. ”

"Please, please."

Pei Wencong hurriedly took Li Ye to the side of the car, and personally opened the door to let Li Ye and the two younger brothers up.

Li Ye got into the car and said, "Your Mercedes-Benz is a little out of line!" Why, Rolls-Royce hasn't applied yet? ”

Pei Wencong, who was sitting in the co-pilot, looked back and said with a smile: "Mr. Li knows Hong Kong Island, and you can buy a Rolls-Royce if you don't have money, but when Mr. Li comes back next time, I will definitely drive a Rolls-Royce to pick you up." ”

Before Rolls-Royce was taken over by BMW, it was very "hypocritical", and their requirements for customers were "celebrity gentlemen", and they did their best to handle customers.

Pei Wencong has his own publishing house, and later he also invested in Hong Kong Island Fenghua Clothing under Seris, and graduated from Hong Kong University, and now that he has money, he should be qualified to precipitate it after a while.

However, Li Ye waved his hand and said: "I don't care about Mercedes-Benz and Rolls-Royce, but I am somewhat interested in the mountaintop mansion and Ferrari.

Let's see if you can help me find it, and next time I come I want to drive around and have a look. ”

He was stunned for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Is Mr. Li going to buy a house on Hong Kong Island?" Do you plan to live on Hong Kong Island in the future? ”

Li Ye glanced at Pei Wencong, waved his hand noncommittally, and did not answer.

Of course, he will not move his family to Hong Kong Island, after all, in the next 40 years, the mainland will be the dragon that will take off, and Hong Kong Island will only be a dragon scale attached to the dragon's tail at most.

It's just that the house price on Hong Kong Island was the lowest in 83~85, and Mr. Cha Liangyong bought a mansion at No. 1 Peak Road, and only spent 12.5 million Hong Kong dollars.

But after 11 years of living, he sold it for HK$190 million, with an annual return of more than 15 percent.

Although with Li Ye's ability to open and hang, the rate of return in these eleven years may be higher, but it is still necessary to buy a set of fixed assets such as a mountaintop mansion with only a few hundred units.

。。。。。。

Amin drove a Mercedes up the hill along a two-way two-lane path.

In 83, there was no cable car in Taiping Mountain, and it was not so convenient for ordinary people to go up the mountain, so the surrounding environment was very private and quiet, and there were hardly a few tourists and idlers in sight.

Li Dayong and Wang Jianqiang sat in the back seat of the Mercedes-Benz, watching the villas passing by one after another, feeling as if they had walked into a Hong Kong film they had watched, both excited and fascinated.

Li Ye smiled and whispered in Qingshui dialect: "What's the matter?" Look like? ”

Li Dayong and Wang Jianqiang immediately sat up straight and moved their eyes back from the window.

It is impossible for the sugar-coated shells of the evil society to bring down their unyielding successors.

Li Ye patted his brother's arm and said, "Don't worry, if you like, we can be neighbors here, it's good to bring your family over for the winter in winter." ”

Wang Jianqiang and Li Dayong were immediately interested.

Li Dayong asked in a low voice, "Brother, how much is a house here?" Is it more expensive or cheaper than a yard in the capital? ”

"Well, it's definitely a little more expensive now."

Li Ye looked at the expectant eyes of the two little brothers, and ruthlessly quoted the house price: "Now a set is about 10 million Hong Kong dollars!" You don't have to be in a hurry, you can wait a few years. ”

Li Dayong: "."

Wang Jianqiang: "."

The light in the eyes of the two little friends dimmed in an instant, and they looked at Li Ye's face full of resentment.

Brother, are you sure you're not drawing a pie?

A house is 10 million Hong Kong dollars~

Are you sure the pit inside is not made of gold?

Li Dayong and Wang Jianqiang are also considered to be small and wealthy now, and they are definitely a handful of rich people in the mainland, but with millions of assets in front of a location like Taiping Mountain, they can't even sneeze, right?

Li Ye touched his nose, there was no way to comfort the depressed mood of the two brothers.

He can't say that this mountain used to be popular to speak English, and soon it will become popular to speak Cantonese.

But in a few decades, it doesn't matter if your native language is Cantonese or English, learn to speak Mandarin for me.

This is not because the mainland bigwigs marched into Taiping Mountain, although there are indeed rumors that the boss of SF Express led his subordinates to sweep Taiping Mountain.

But what this really means is that the center of gravity of the economy has been shifting north, and as long as you want to stay out of fashion, then you have to move north.

Pei Wencong's new home is on a very high ground, and the Mercedes Benz has been climbing to the top of the hill before entering a villa.

This villa doesn't look big, but it's in a good location.

Li Ye asked Pei Wencong: "Is your house above the fog line?" ”

Pei Wencong praised: "Mr. Li has good eyesight, if there is fog tomorrow morning, you can see the scenery on the fog." ”

Li Ye smiled: "What kind of eyesight is this, it's just common sense." ”

The mansions in Taiping Mountain are also divided into upper and lower grades, and those who are above the fog line and can see the scenery above the clouds and mist in the morning are called "upper mansions".

And if it is foggy in foggy weather, it is all foggy at a glance through the window, it is a "mansion".

After entering Pei Wencong's house, Li Ye saw Ah Qiang.

Cuong is dressed as a painter and is concentrating on painting an old house in the yard.

"Hey, Qiangzai!"

Ah Qiang, who was on the herringbone ladder, heard the voice, looked back and saw Li Ye, who almost fell off the ladder.

He threw away the paint, ran over in three or two steps, and asked nervously, "Mr. Li, why did you come to Hong Kong Island at this time?" ”

Li Ye said strangely: "What? Do I need to choose a time to come to Hong Kong Island? ”

"No," Ah Qiang scratched his head and said, "Recently, there have been negotiations, and those reporters have been chasing people like me who have been to the mainland all day long.

It just so happened that a few days ago, the reporter here learned about the skit of "The Wanderer's Homecoming" in the Great Hall, and was tracking down who was Ah Qiang in it.

I don't know why they are suspicious, so hide from the boss, you come here now, you must be careful of the reporter. ”

Li Ye said with some surprise: "Is the news so well-informed?" But so what? Can they still rebel against you? ”

"That's definitely not possible, Hong Kong Island is a place where the law is spoken,"

Ah Qiang kept shaking his head and said, "But I hate staying here more and more now, or Mr. Li will take me back to the capital when you go back this time!" ”

Li Ye looked at Ah Qiang for a few seconds before he smiled and said, "It's fake that you want to go back to the capital, and you think that reporter Pan Xiaoqing is real, right?" ”

Ah Qiang's face turned red when he saw it, and he squirmed and laughed a few times, very embarrassed.

Li Ye thought for a while and said, "You recently corresponded with Pan Xiaoqing, didn't she say if she was willing to come to Hong Kong Island?" ”

Ah Qiang nodded and said: "She didn't say it directly, but I think she wants to come to Hong Kong Island to study, but you know the current situation, even I am going to be annoyed by the reporter to death, I am afraid that she will regret it after she comes." ”

[If you don't let her come, maybe she'll regret it!] 】

Li Ye didn't want to comment on the love between Ah Qiang and Pan Xiaoqing, so he thought about it and said: "You don't have to worry, the environment on Hong Kong Island will stabilize soon, and reporters will not be interested in caring about such trivial matters at that time." ”

Li Ye knew that this month was the most tense time for the negotiations between the mainland and Britain, and the two sides had great differences, and Britain even played the "economic card," causing the stock market and foreign exchange market on Hong Kong Island to plummet, causing the Hang Seng Point to eventually fall by more than 600 points.

But in the face of the tough position of the mainland, the former empire on which the sun never sets has only this big card, which only lasted for two months, and finally had to bow its head in front of strength.

Ah Qiang sighed and said: "That's the best, I haven't been to the mainland before, and I thought that Hong Kong and Britain were very powerful, but now it seems that some people are just wishful thinking." ”

Li Ye was surprised, he couldn't imagine that Ah Qiang would have such thoughts.

You must know that most of the people on Hong Kong Island still have honey confidence, thinking that the Iron Lady who just won the Battle of the Falklands can create more brilliance!

"Dididi~"

A car horn sounded outside the villa door, the maid of Pei Wencong's family opened the electric door, and a small red BMW drove in.

After the little BMW was parked, two women, an old man and a young woman, got out of the car carrying several bottles of wine.

She is at least fifty years old, and although her hair is black, the deep years on her face show the vicissitudes of her first half of her life.

The girl who was driving was probably less than twenty years old, and the little bird was smart in her eyes, and when she got out of the car, she kept looking at Li Ye, Li Dayong and Wang Jianqiang.

When she saw Li Ye, her eyes were full of light, and when she saw Li Dayong, her eyes were full of surprise.

Compared with the figure of Hong Kong Island people, Li Dayong, who is nearly 1.9 meters and 1890 pounds, is too tall and strong.

The girl did not take the liberty to come over to greet Li Ye and the others, but shouted to Pei Wencong in the villa: "Brother, you brought a friend?" ”

Pei Wencong walked out in three or two steps, walked over with girls and women and introduced: "Mr. Li, this is my mother, this is my sister Pei Wenhui. ”

"Grandma, this is the Mr. Li I told you, this is Mr. Wang, this . It's also Mr. Lee. ”

Pei Wencong's mother immediately greeted Li Ye in Cantonese, very enthusiastic, and Li Ye also felt a little nervous.

And her sister Pei Wenhui was more generous, bowed slightly to the three of them and said, "Hello, you are welcome to come to my house as a guest." ”

Pei's mother slapped Pei Wenhui's arm and said unhappily: "What are you a guest?" This is Mr. Li's home, and he doesn't bring guests in for tea. ”

Pei Wenhui stuck out her tongue and hurriedly took Li Ye and the others in to drink tea.

Pei's mother entered the kitchen and quickly packed up a large table of dinner, which was obviously prepared a long time ago, and it was estimated that the two of them went out to buy wine.

Pei's mother poured wine for Li Ye, picked up the wine glass and said: "These two bottles of wine are not good wine, but I have been buried under the house in my hometown for more than ten years in my early years.

At that time, I said that I would not drink until Ah Cong married and had a happy event, but today I know that Mr. Li is coming to Hong Kong Island, I think this is a big happy event, and I hope Mr. Li will not dislike it. ”

Li Ye hurriedly raised his glass in return, and then drank it all happily, which made the three members of the Pei family greatly admired.

Then everyone began to drink and eat food and chat about family life, and Pei's mother's chatting was very high, almost completely suppressing Pei Wencong's limelight.

It's just that Pei's mother can understand Mandarin, but she can only speak Cantonese.

Li Ye can understand that Wang Jianqiang, who has been in Yangcheng for a short time, needs to guess, and Li Dayong is completely confused.

"My mother said that we used to be mainlanders, and we came from Chaoshan when she was very young, and we have lived a very hard life for so many years.

But my mother never lost hope, because the master said that my brother would definitely soar."

Pei Wenhui's Mandarin is better than Pei Wencong's, so he acted as a translator, but this translator seemed to be only for Li Dayong.

Today, the elderly at home are not feeling well, and I went to the hospital to delay the time, sorry.
