Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

"Hey, Aunt Lou, are you here? Please come in, please come in!"

After letting Lou Xiao'e into the room and closing the door, Cao Zhiqiang walked to Lou Xiao'e with a smile. While leading her to the sofa in the living room, he said enthusiastically: "Aunt Lou, why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming, so I could prepare early?" ah?"

Facing Cao Zhiqiang's enthusiasm, Lou Xiao'e didn't say anything, just walked to the sofa and sat down with a smile, and then looked directly at Cao Zhiqiang.

Cao Zhiqiang was stunned, but continued to smile, poured a cup of tea for Lou Xiao'e and himself, and then sat down opposite Lou Xiao'e.

After sitting down, Cao Zhiqiang found that Lou Xiao'e was still smiling at him with squinted eyes, without saying a word, and finally couldn't hold it any longer.

After blinking, Cao Zhiqiang simply asked: "What's wrong? Aunt Lou? Is there something dirty on my face?"

Lou Xiao'e smiled and did not answer. Instead, she took a sip from the tea cup and nodded: "Well, not bad, good tea."

"If you like it, drink more." Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, "This is the Dahongpao mother tree in Wuyi Mountain, and it comes from the three mother trees on the cliff of Kowloon Nest. It belongs to the first generation of Dahongpao, and it is absolutely the authentic one!"

"Oh? Dahongpao, the mother tree of Wuyi Mountain? Those three authentic ones on the cliff of Kowloon Nest?"

The knowledgeable Lou Xiao'e was stunned when she heard this, and looked at the tea soup in the teacup again, unable to hide her surprise.

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "How dare I give you fake goods."

Hearing this, Lou Xiao'e looked serious and stared at the tea soup: "If it is the real thing, that would be amazing."

Speaking of this, Lou Xiao'e put down her tea cup, looked at Cao Zhiqiang with a serious face and said: "As far as I know, the mother tree that can be said is Dahongpao. There are only six trees in the country, and they are all on the cliff of Jiulongnese.

Among these six tea trees, three are the most original, and the other three are branched off from the original three mother trees.

Because of this, the production of this kind of tea is extremely limited. It is said that the production is only about eight taels per year.

Speaking of this, I have also heard of a very famous diplomatic story, which is related to this tea.

I think back then, when US President Nixon visited China, we gave him four taels of red robes.

Nixon was puzzled at first and thought he was too stingy, so we said that this is the mother tree Dahongpao, which only produces about eight taels a year. Now giving him four taels is equivalent to giving away half of the country, which is very precious.

You must have been in the capital at that time. You must have heard of this story, right? "

"I know this story." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

Just kidding, the fact that Nixon received the Dahongpao as a gift during his visit to China was widely reported at the time. Even Lou Xiao'e, who was still in Xiangjiang at the time, knew about it. How could Cao Zhiqiang not know about it.

Hearing what Cao Zhiqiang said, Lou Xiao'e frowned: "As far as I know, because the production of that kind of tea is very limited and the value is extremely expensive, it has been protected for a long time and ordinary people have no access to it.

This kind of tea is supplied in quota every year and has been allocated long ago.

Among them, half a catty is given to the central government every year, which is five taels, and the rest is left to the provinces, which is about two or three taels.

In other words, this kind of tea is all in the hands of the government and is mainly used as a gift to high-level VIPs. Not to mention that ordinary people can't get it at all, even ordinary high-ranking officials can't get it. You, how can you have it? "

Cao Zhiqiang chuckled: "Of course it was given by someone else."

Well, of course Cao Zhiqiang got this from signing in through the system before.

But, I definitely can’t tell anyone about it, I can only say it was given by others.

And saying it was given as a gift by others also has the meaning of pulling off the skin of a tiger.

After all, as Lou Xiao'e said, the real first-generation Wuyishan Dahongpao is indeed not available to ordinary people because they are all controlled by the state.

Just for this kind of tea, there are all levels of supervision, and armed police are here to supervise and escort the whole process. It is definitely a national treasure among national treasures.

At least before the 90s, there was no real first-generation Wuyishan Dahongpao on the market, because they were strictly controlled by the state and were not circulated at all on the market. All those in circulation were fake, or were not humane enough.

The authentic first-generation Wuyishan Dahongpao mother tree tea really began to appear on the market. It was in the 90s after the reform. In order to make money, the Wuyishan government began public auctions, and this precious tea entered the market.

Before that, you couldn't buy this thing if you had money, and what you bought was definitely a fake.

However, there is a saying. Although this is a national treasure, the right to distribute national treasures is also in the hands of people.

Not to mention those high-end foreign guests, even in China, some real big shots can get some Wuyi Mountain Dahongpao mother tree tea leaves.

For example, Cao Zhiqiang's earliest friend, the retired Uncle Xu, had a handful of Wuyishan Dahongpao mother tree tea, but he was reluctant to drink it at all. He kept it as an honor and a family heirloom.

Of course, he did drink it and knew what it tasted like.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so surprised when Cao Zhiqiang gave him a drink from the Wuyi Mountain mother tree Dahongpao.

As for Lou Xiao'e, although she has been the daughter of a big capitalist for a long time, she actually only knows the preciousness of this kind of tea, but has never tasted authentic tea.

There was no way, let alone after liberation. Even before liberation, not many people could drink that kind of tea.

Anyway, no matter how you calculate it, it can't be counted on Lou Xiao'e. Her father is not qualified to drink it, and he never drank it until his death.

"Then this is really surprising." Lou Xiao'e immediately understood the meaning of Cao Zhiqiang's words, "It seems that the person behind you is really well-established."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip of the tea, without replying.

Well, the reason why Cao Zhiqiang brewed this Dahongpao mother tree tea was actually intentional.

Otherwise, he has plenty of tea leaves, all kinds of famous teas, and even more precious tea pastes. Why do he have to use this to entertain Lou Xiaoe?

This is clearly telling Lou Xiaoe implicitly that there is someone behind me, and he is still a very big shot!

Only by doing this can Lou Xiaoe truly value Cao Zhiqiang, and subsequently Zhu Lin.

After all, Cao Zhiqiang's previous misinformation hinted that the man behind Zhu Lin was a big shot, and the child in his belly also belonged to a big shot.

I believe that with this knowledge, Lou Xiaoe will be more enthusiastic to help.

After all, Lou Xiao'e is a smart person, and she understands how powerful she can be with a big leader as her backer.

That was a matter of life and death, and she had experienced it back then.

After taking a breath, Lou Xiao'e picked up the tea cup again: "In that case, I have to have a good taste."

After taking another two sips and drinking it all, Lou Xiaoe nodded: "Well, it tastes really good."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled and poured Lou Xiao'e another glass: "If it tastes good, drink more. I don't have much."

Lou Xiao'e smiled and drank the tea in one gulp. Then she put down the teacup, looked at Cao Zhiqiang and said with a smile: "I'm flattered to be served such precious tea all of a sudden."

"What's the point?" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "As a secular person, I think tea is just for drinking.

If you don't drink it and you have to serve it, it won't taste good after a long time.

No matter how powerful this tea is, it is just a rare product. Its essence is still tea. In terms of technology, it is a type of oolong tea.

If you don't drink it for a long time, this thing will really get moldy.

Therefore, I will not offer this thing.

Of course, because this is very precious, I usually don’t give it to ordinary people.

But Aunt Lou is different, you are not an ordinary person.

Not only are you my Aunt Lou, but you have also helped me so much. It is only natural that I treat you to a drink of this tea.

By the way, I have two more taels here. You can take them back later. ""oh? Lou Xiao'e raised her eyebrows and said, "Give them all to me?" you sure? "

"What's so uncertain about this?" Cao Zhiqiang said.

"To be honest, I don't usually drink this, I'm used to drinking coffee.

So, although this tea is good and precious, it is useless to stay here with me.

This thing is in my hand, it's just a gift for others.

As the saying goes, BMW gives gifts to heroes, and good tea gives good people.

After much thought, the only person worthy of me giving this tea is you, Aunt Lou.

Even if you don't come to me today, I will still find an opportunity to give it to you.

So, just keep it, it’s a part of my heart. "

Lou Xiao'e smiled: "Yes, thank you very much."

"That's right." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and poured another cup of tea for Lou Xiao'e, "Which of us is following who? It's a joke."

Lou Xiao'e nodded and did not drink tea immediately. Instead, she looked up at Cao Zhiqiang and said, "In that case, I won't treat you as an outsider. There are some things I want to talk to you about."

"Say it." Cao Zhiqiang quickly acted like he was all ears.

Lou Xiao'e rubbed the edge of the teacup with her fingers and said thoughtfully: "Well, what should I say? Forget it, let's get down to business first."

Having said this, Lou Xiao'e opened her bag and took out two documents: "This is the company contract you asked me to help purchase before.

One of them is an investment company registered in the Virgin Islands, and the other is a trading company registered in Hong Kong.

I purchased this trading company in Xiangjiang as a wholly-owned limited company in the name of the investment company in the Virgin Islands.

The characteristic is that in addition to having complete qualifications and a wide range of main businesses, it also has a complete manpower and all kinds of business channels are open. It is a formal trading company that fully meets your requirements.

It can be said that this company is just short of funds. Once funds are injected, it will be able to operate normally.

More importantly, this company used to mainly do business in the mainland. Like my company, it was all about re-export trade, so as long as you take over and help connect the domestic lines, it will be able to operate normally in no time.

If you see that there is no problem, just sign the authorization document, and then, these two companies will be yours. "

"So simple?" Cao Zhiqiang frowned.

You know, when Cao Zhiqiang purchased an overseas offshore company in Japan, he went through a lot of procedures and signed several company documents alone.

But here, all you need to do is sign an authorization document.

Is the difference too big?

"Of course it's simple." Lou Xiao'e smiled and said, "The Virgin Islands are an overseas territory of the United Kingdom. Like Xiangjiang, they are both under the jurisdiction of the British Empire.

Moreover, the system in Xiangjiang is special, especially the financial system, which is one of the most relaxed in the world.

So here, it is really easy to buy an overseas offshore company anonymously.

Here, you don't need to come forward in person, you only need to sign an authorization letter, and a specialized intermediary company will do everything for you.

Even more, you can set up various anonymous foundations or use the name of a trust to purchase overseas companies, which can be done without anyone noticing and no one can find out.

Many people use this kind of shell company, so this kind of business of purchasing companies is very common in Hong Kong, and the business is very mature and not complicated.

Of course, you bought the company not only to transfer funds, but also to do business here and transfer people here, so I helped you buy a fully qualified trading company here in Xiangjiang.

This trading company was relatively well-known in the industry earlier. I have cooperated with them before.

It's a pity that after the first generation head died of illness, the second generation successor was a prodigal who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun, especially he was addicted to gambling.

In this way, it didn't take long for him to lose all his family property, and then he put the company up for sale.

Originally, I wanted to take it on my own and enrich my own company, but since you want it, I'll give it to you.

Anyway, I have other choices, not just this one.

As for the investment company in the Virgin Islands, it is really just an empty shell.

After you buy it, there will be someone here who can act as an agent, or you can do it yourself. Anyway, it is very simple and not complicated. With your ability, you are guaranteed to learn it in no time. "

Cao Zhiqiang nodded to express his understanding, then took the document and looked at it.

He first casually looked at the investment company in the Virgin Islands, which was basically an empty shell, then threw it away and started to pick up another document called "Hesheng Company" and read it carefully.

Although they are all in English, it is not a problem at all for Cao Zhiqiang.

Realizing that Cao Zhiqiang was reading the documents carefully, Lou Xiao'e nodded secretly, and then explained:
"It doesn't cost much to buy an investment company in the Virgin Islands. I paid the money for you, so you don't have to pay it back.

Then I directly found the current boss of Hesheng Company and purchased all his shares in the company in the name of an investment company.

And this guy originally owned [-]% of the shares of Hesheng Company.

In other words, that investment company already owns [-]% of the shares of Hesheng Company and has absolute control.

As long as you sign this transfer agreement and own that investment company, you are equivalent to owning [-]% of the shares of Hesheng Company. And as long as you don't tell it, others will not know that Hesheng Company's largest owner is actually you. .

It's a lot of money to buy Hesheng Company shares. You have to pay me back later. "

Cao Zhiqiang smiled: "Don't worry, I can't miss you."

Lou Xiao'e nodded: "Of course I believe you. After all, it's only more than 300 million Hong Kong dollars. It shouldn't be a problem for you now. The money you make in Japan alone is probably more than that.

However, there is a small problem here.

That's this trading company, and it still has a lot of debt.

I inquired about it and found that this company still has debts of more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars, most of which are loan sharks borrowed in the name of the company by the guy before, and a small part are normal debts for the company's operations. I only found out after I bought the shares. of.

So, if you don't want to get into trouble and really want to run a good business, you have to pay off your debt first.

In short, I was negligent in this matter. If you feel it is inappropriate, then this company will be mine, and I will find a new company for you later. "

"No need." Cao Zhiqiang looked at the document and smiled, "The debt is only 200 million, including the share money, it is only more than 500 million, it's trivial."

Having said this, Cao Zhiqiang put down the document and said: "This is the one. I believe in your vision and you won't choose a bad one."

"Yes, courageous." Lou Xiao'e smiled.

“Although this company is not large in scale, it is well-equipped and has good qualifications. The most important thing is that it has many experienced old employees.

With these experienced and well-connected old employees, we have smooth overseas sales channels.

Therefore, as long as you pay off the extra debt and work hard, you will be able to make a comeback soon.

Especially for the Sino-Hong Kong joint venture project you want to do, it is most suitable to use this company as the basic base. "

Cao Zhiqiang nodded silently: "Indeed, talents are the most precious."

"Okay, you've finished talking about the business." Lou Xiao'e said seriously, "Now, let's talk about the personal stuff." (End of Chapter)
