Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

After listening to Cao Zhiqiang's pretentious sigh, Lou Xiao'e said with a livid face: "Huh, a dog can't change its eating of shit! I know that bastard who seeks power for personal gain will live well! After all, it will bring harm to the world for thousands of years!"

Cao Zhiqiang: "..."

I always feel like you're scolding me.

But forget it, who made this matter really his fault.

"What are your plans?" Lou Xiao'e suddenly asked.

"Ah? What?" Cao Zhiqiang was stunned.

Lou Xiao'e frowned and asked: "Let me ask you, do you really plan to get involved in this kind of thing? Can't you find someone else? Do you have to find you?"

"This..." Cao Zhiqiang was speechless for a while.

Don't mention it, you can only go to him for this kind of thing, not anyone else.

After all, the child is your own. If you are not responsible for it, who else can you turn to for responsibility?
Of course, that's what happened, but it can't be said, at least not yet.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang sighed again: "Aunt Lou, I know what you mean, and I also know that you are doing it for my own good. However, I owe someone, so I have to handle this kind of thing, and no one else can handle it. .”

"But what can you do?" Lou Xiao'e asked with a frown.

"Don't I have to ask Aunt Lou for help?" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile.

"Me?" Lou Xiao'e looked sideways at Cao Zhiqiang, "How can I help? Let me tell you, don't come to me for this kind of thing, I don't want to get into this muddy water!"

"No!" Cao Zhiqiang laughed immediately, "Who doesn't know that Aunt Lou is the most warm-hearted person in the world? No matter what, you can't look at Sister Zhu alone. No, she has children, so there are two of us.

You can't just look at them, orphans and widowers, so lonely, right?Do you really have the heart not to help? "

Lou Xiao'e turned her head and looked at Zhu Lin, who was sitting on a chair and rubbing his belly, acting very quiet. He sighed softly, shook his head, and then said to Cao Zhiqiang:
"Tell me, what are you going to ask me to help you with?
Let’s say it first, of course I can help if I can, but don’t count on me if I can’t. "

Cao Zhiqiang quickly smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, you can definitely do it."

After saying this, Cao Zhiqiang lowered his voice again and approached Lou Xiao'e, whispering in her ear.

Well, what Cao Zhiqiang asked Lou Xiaoe for help can be summarized in two points.

First, hire people.

As mentioned before, although Cao Zhiqiang plans to let Zhu Lin settle in Xiangjiang, unless he takes an unusual route and wants to sneak over, it will take time to come through normal means, and it is impossible to stay in Xiangjiang immediately.

It's easy to say when. After all, Zhu Lin is less than three months pregnant now, so she can go back to a place in China to raise her first.

As long as you don't go back to the capital and don't see acquaintances, it won't be a big problem.

Cao Zhiqiang’s plan is to take Zhu Lin back to Haikou, Hainan first.

The climate there is warm, and there is also a private villa he bought before, plus a Ford pickup truck F150, which is enough as a temporary golden house to hide his love.

However, for the time being, Cao Zhiqiang has many things to do, and it is impossible to stay in Hainan to accompany Zhu Lin for a long time, so during this period, he needs someone who is reliable to accompany Zhu Lin.

Not only must it be reliable, but it must also be helpful.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang hopes that Lou Xiao'e will hire a reliable confinement nanny, a reliable servant, and a reliable driver in Xiangjiang.

Maybe you need to ask, confinement nanny servants can also be hired in China, and they are cheaper. Why should we find people from Xiangjiang?
There are many reasons, but the biggest one is - reliability!
First of all, there are no reliable servants in the country at this time!

Due to various reasons, the terms servant and servant are currently very taboo in China. Even if you really hire someone to do servant work, such as cleaning your own room, it is still polite, I must say. Find someone to help, or simply get the treatment only a leader can have.

Zhu Lin is not a leader, so he cannot find service personnel from within the system. He can only find servants from outside the system. Basically, there is no reliable servant of this kind.

It's nice to stay in a big hotel, but there are so many people in the hotel that a pregnant woman can't hide.

If you expect the service staff of major domestic hotels to be tight-lipped, it would be really difficult for them.

Therefore, it is basically unrealistic to find domestic servants, at least at this time.

Unless everyone has experienced the mass tide of people and got rid of their original ideas, they will gradually start to worship money, and then gradually accept the profession of servants and servants.

But even then, whether the servants are reliable or not depends on luck.

For example, in Cao Zhiqiang's previous life, there was a very popular TV series called "The Story of the Editorial Department", in which a nanny was hired, but it turned out to be like hiring an old man.

Later, people looked at this situation as funny and impossible, but in fact, the stories were based on prototypes and actually happened, and there were more than one case.

There was no way, people at that time were like that, their service awareness was not very strong, and the service industry was extremely lacking, so there was bound to be a situation where the customer bullied the owner.

This is inevitable in the early stages of the service industry, when relevant standards and constraints have not been established.

Only when the service industry becomes more mature in the future, with relevant standards and restrictions in place, and more and more domestic service companies become available, will the maid system truly mature.

Compared with mainland China, where the service industry is immature, things are completely different here in Xiangjiang.

As a developed city, Xiangjiang's service industry level is also first-rate in the world.

This gives Xiangjiang's service staff a general sense of service personnel and relevant industry standards.

Of course, the so-called standards mainly refer to relevant legal provisions, which can only restrict people from Xiangjiang, but cannot restrict non-Hong Kong people.

From this perspective, hiring servants such as confinement servants and drivers from Xiangjiang will cost more, but the service level will also be higher.

It is said that Filipino maids in Xiangjiang are good, but actually they are referring to the cost-effectiveness.

The really good servants in Xiangjiang are actually the local Chinese in Xiangjiang.

Those people are truly useful, and over time, it is easy to cultivate them into their own people.

Otherwise, if you look at the wealthy people in Xiangjiang, some of them hire Filipino maids. Aren’t they all Chinese from Xiangjiang?

Secondly, Zhu Lin is an actor. Since the movie "Love in the Rain" became a hit in Japan, not only many Japanese people got to know Zhu Lin, but also because of the popularity of the movie in Japan, it appeared on the domestic media in the form of news. Newspapers and magazines.

Under this circumstance, not only did the domestic public have high expectations for the Chinese original version of "Love in the Rain", "Love in the Ancient Pavilion", but it also made them have a good impression of the heroine Zhu Lin.

On the same day, they also had a good impression of the leading actor Cao Zhiqiang.

In other words, Cao Zhiqiang and Zhu Lin are now very well-known people in the country, and many people in the country know their two faces.

They are already very famous now. If someone discovers that they secretly settled in Hainan and knew that Zhu Lin was pregnant, it would definitely be big news.

Due to the general environment in China, the level of confidentiality of this kind of personal privacy is actually very poor, so if you hire domestic servants, it is difficult to guarantee that the information will not be leaked.

Relatively speaking, things are much better here in Xiangjiang.

It’s not that people here in Xiangjiang don’t gossip, but people in Xiangjiang know a little bit about the law and abide by it.As long as you hire locals with Xiangjiang ID cards and sign confidentiality agreements with them in advance, or confidentiality agreements with high penalties, then generally speaking, those people will not leak secrets casually.

After all, if the cost of leaking secrets is too high, most people can keep their mouths shut.

In addition, Zhu Lin is destined to settle in Xiangjiang in the future. In addition, she has a special status and is an actress. Therefore, when it comes to servants, it is better to use the raw than the familiar. It is best to keep using them.

Only in this way can the secret be kept.

In other words, Cao Zhiqiang planned to find people with strict mouths as servants from the beginning. For this reason, it didn't matter if the price was higher.

Those people are not only going to Hainan to take care of Zhu Lin temporarily, but when Zhu Lin returns to Xiangjiang to settle down, they, the servants, can also follow him back to Xiangjiang, and then continue to be employed by Zhu Lin and continue to serve Zhu Lin.

In this way, everyone is happy and can keep the secret to the greatest extent possible.

As for whether it is easy to hire reliable Xiangjiang maids in Xiangjiang.

That can only be said that it is really too easy.

In fact, although Xiangjiang is very prosperous and has a high standard of living, there are still too many poor people.

In particular, most of the mainlanders who came to Xiangjiang through the barrier policy and obtained the Xiangjiang ID cards lived at the bottom of the class and were originally meant for others.

Among them, there is no shortage of people from the north.

For example, Lou Xiao'e is.

Therefore, it is really easy to hire a few servants who can speak Mandarin and have Xiangjiang ID cards. All you need to do is pay enough and sign a confidentiality agreement and an employment contract.

As long as there is a confidentiality agreement and an employment contract, the employment relationship between the two parties is protected by Hong Kong law, and generally speaking, there is not much of a problem.

However, out of caution, Cao Zhiqiang decided that all the servants serving Zhu Lin must be women, not men, and all of them cannot be from the same family or related.

There was no other way. Cao Zhiqiang had watched "Parasite" in his previous life. He knew very well how dangerous it would be if the servants were a family. He could always defeat the superiors and turn against the guests.

Calculated this way, if you want to serve Zhu Lin well, you must at least have an ordinary maid who can drive, a maid with confinement nanny experience, and a maid who can cook, especially confinement meals. Servants, at least three people.

Of course it would be better to have one more person. After all, the villa in Haikou is very big. It can accommodate seven or eight people, let alone four or five people.

As for the money, Lou Xiao'e will provide it for the time being, but in fact, Cao Zhiqiang will send the money to Lou Xiao'e privately.

In this way, it becomes Lou Xiao'e helping Zhu Lin. On the surface, it has nothing to do with Cao Zhiqiang. Even if someone investigates, there will be no problem easily found.

In addition to hiring people, the second point is to open a company.

Cao Zhiqiang decided to open several companies here in Xiangjiang, and Lou Xiao'e helped run them.

The method is still the same, that is, first open an offshore company in Hong Kong where the shareholders cannot be found, and then use the name of the offshore company to open a company in Hong Kong, which is a matryoshka model nested within layers.

When the company here in Xiangjiang opens, we can cooperate with the company controlled by Cao Zhiqiang in China.

To put it simply, Cao Zhiqiang registered an overseas offshore company A in Xiangjiang through Lou Xiao'e, and then used company A to register a limited company B in Xiangjiang.

Next, Cao Zhiqiang can use Xiangjiang company B to cooperate with a unit he controls in China to establish a new joint venture company C in Xiangjiang.

In this joint venture, Company B in Xiangjiang holds more shares, more than 50.00%, while the mainland company only holds 40.00% at most.

In this way, this joint venture company is still considered a foreign investment, but it has domestic investment and has a certain say.

Then, the country can legitimately send domestic personnel to work in Xiangjiang.

Whether they are managers or ordinary clerks, in short, people from China are qualified to send people to work and settle in Xiangjiang.

Of course, this form of dispatch can only be obtained with a work visa in Hong Kong.

But as long as people arrive in Xiangjiang, everything will be easier.

If nothing else, you can at least buy a residence in the name of your company and use it for your employees.

At that time, Cao Zhiqiang can use the company's name to buy a villa in Xiangjiang and let Zhu Lin live there.

But there's a problem with this.

That is, if you buy it in the name of the company, because the company does not belong to Zhu Lin in name, you cannot consume the "love fund" related to Zhu Lin and can only use your own money.

Fortunately, the current housing prices in Xiangjiang are not as outrageous as they were later, and renting a house is not expensive, even if it is larger, it is not outrageous.

For example, the average price of houses in Hong Kong, even in the most expensive area of ​​Hong Kong Island, is only HK$600 per square foot, which is equivalent to HK$6000 per square meter in square meters.

During this period, the Hong Kong dollar to RMB exchange rate was approximately 1 RMB to 3 Hong Kong dollars, which is about one to three.

In other words, the housing prices in Xiangjiang at this time are only 2000 RMB per square meter, which is not expensive.

According to this price, a 20-square-meter house in Xiangjiang is only [-] RMB, which is just a drop in the bucket for Cao Zhiqiang.

Even for better luxury homes, 100 million RMB is enough to buy a very nice villa in Kowloon.

Therefore, even if you can't use Zhu Lin's love fund to buy a house for the time being and can only use your own money to buy a villa for Zhu Lin to live in, it won't be a big problem.

What's more, these houses are destined to rise in price in the future. If you buy them now, you will definitely not lose money.

As for Zhu Lin, he was just living there, and the property belonged to the company, which was also his own, so he wouldn't suffer any loss.

Of course, Cao Zhiqiang is not that stingy, he is just a little regretful that he cannot spend the "love fund".

After all, the number of love funds is terrifying. The amount of any one person's love fund is far higher than Cao Zhiqiang's entire net worth.

At the same time, the more the love fund spends, the more rebates he gets, which means the more he spends, the more he earns.

In the end, the money spent on Zhu Lin can still be regarded as his own, and there is no big difference.

Therefore, spending love funds is a real pleasure.

Unfortunately, in reality, it is really difficult to spend a lot of money safely.

Especially with Cao Zhiqiang's current status, it is too difficult to legitimately spend a lot of money on Zhu Lin.

Forget it, we can only do it step by step.

Anyway, the love fund is there.

As long as people are still there, money can't escape!
