Back to the past: Spring and Autumn Siheyuan

Chapter 447 Governor
"Sister Zhao, do you want to go out?"

"I'm not going to Erheng, you can take them with you. I'll accompany Xiaoya and help her sort out some materials."

Now Zhao Mingxia is not only the little girl's accompanying student, but also more like an assistant, coming to help every night.

On the contrary, Li Heng, the husband, is just like a shopkeeper. Apart from formulating a development route for a few companies, he will not intervene in any other issues related to management and specific operations.

He knows nine things about business, so apart from giving money to the company, he never cares about anything else. The more laymen in the province direct the experts, the worse it is.

As long as you do a good job in financial and legal supervision, implement the approval system for various tasks, and assign responsibilities to people, in this age without the Internet, it is not easy for you to run away with money.

Zhao Mingxia really admired him for this. With so much money, such a big company is handed over to a little girl who also doesn't understand anything. She really isn't afraid of losing money.

However, she was also a little puzzled. She couldn't figure out where this guy's money came from. Could it be from the higher ups?But that's a little too much, right?

There are many people who are also puzzled, such as the high-level executives of Hong Kong Island, but they think more.

At first, they also suspected that the money came from a wrong source, but after investigation, they found that the source was really messy, and some of the money came from an old nobleman in their hometown, which made them have to turn a blind eye and close their eyes. Eye.

There are even MPs from my hometown to help greet them. Seeing this situation, the Governor's Office is even more lazy to take care of it. Anyway, they have lost the benefits. The better the economy of Hong Kong Island, the better they will be. The greater the possibility of confusion, why not do it.

It's just that they also wondered why the agent would choose the Chinese. Is it just because there are many Chinese here and it is convenient to act?Or do those people behind Huasheng have other deeper plans?

"Sir, the planning and budget of the undersea tunnel have been roughly worked out, and the funding gap is really too big. My hometown means to let us raise our own money. You see..."

Although it was already night in the Governor's Mansion, the living room was still full of people coming and going, which seemed very busy.

The population of Hong Kong Island is increasing day by day. The main island and Kowloon face each other across the sea. Although the distance is only two kilometers, there has been no land transportation connection. They can only travel by ferry, which greatly limits the communication between the two sides.

Now that the Governor's Mansion wants to develop industries on Hong Kong Island, it must make full use of Kowloon, because there is no extra land on this island for industrial development. The idea was brought up again.

It's just that what they thought back then was to build a cross-sea bridge to connect the main island and Kowloon, but now their thinking has changed.

If a cross-sea bridge is built, it will affect the waterway of Victoria Harbor. Although they intend to develop industries on Hong Kong Island, they don't want to destroy this world's top three natural harbors. Isn't this what they came here for when they came here?

Therefore, in order to develop, land connectivity is a must, but the original plan to build a cross-sea bridge has turned into a subsea tunnel, but problems have also arisen, that is, the budget is not enough, and I want my hometown to subsidize it, just think about it , it is enough to not want their money over there.

After hearing the city official's report, the Governor frowned deeply, but then he thought of someone again.

"Cavill, you will contact Li tomorrow, talk to him, and tell him that if Huasheng can help solve part of the funds, I will approve the construction plan of the TV station for him, and I will also help him communicate with the Kahn family. Isn't he very interested in the telegraph and telephone company controlled by the Kahn family?"

"Sir, that Li is not a very talkative person. In the words of the Chinese people, if he does not see a rabbit, he will not scatter an eagle. If it is just a verbal promise, I don't think he will willingly pay the money. After all, the amount of money is not small. If He just gave 80 Hong Kong dollars, which is no different from not giving, you have to know that the current funding gap is in the billions.”

"Huh..." His Excellency the Governor sighed deeply. He also had a headache. There are indeed many rich people on Hong Kong Island, but these wealth are basically in the hands of British-funded enterprises. I want these people to pay for the construction Undersea Tunnel, huh...

Those rich Chinese are definitely willing to pay, but what they want is a drop in the bucket. If there is someone who is willing to pay for it all, to be honest, he really dare not accept it, then there must be a big conspiracy, it is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger.

Now only the Huasheng company's money looks cleaner on the surface. Although the agent is still Chinese, most of the funds that can be traced back come from the West, so he just asked Li Heng for alms.

But what the city official said was right, why should people pay this money? If it was just empty talk and some promises that they didn't know when they would be fulfilled, then they really thought too much.

"You should contact Li first to hear what kind of request he will make, and then we can discuss it."

"Okay sir." There is no way, the Governor has said so, the city official can only hold his nose and nod to agree, and then he turns his head to look at a middle-aged white man sitting on the other side The man asked: "Brian, do you know where to find that Mr. Li? As far as I know, this man is quite elusive, and many people can't get in touch with him."

Brian is an official in charge of security in the Governor's Mansion, and has a close relationship with the police department. He must pay close attention to the whereabouts of Li Heng, who is both the spokesperson of Huasheng Company and the spokesperson of Hengyi Club.

"Uh... Actually, Li is very easy to find. He hardly has any other social activities. During the day, his wife goes to school, and he basically stays in the teahouse in Central. ..."

Speaking of which, Brian took out a small notebook from his pocket, read it and said a series of numbers: "You can call this number first to inquire, as long as Li is there, the person who answers the phone will not hide it, but You have to remember to report yourself."

"Tea house?"

Brian's words made everyone in the living room focus on him. A guy who controls tens or even tens of billions of funds, is in the teahouse every day?Shouldn't he be so busy every day that he has no time to rest?

Seeing this, Brian shrugged his shoulders: "Guys, you heard me right, he is in the teahouse every day, I heard that he hardly interferes with the company's operations, but his wife reads various work briefings every day, this What do you say, it seems that he only cares about the company's development direction, a very strange rich man, completely different from other rich Chinese who want to take all the rights into their own hands."
