History of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 284 Female Secretary

"Ah Shui", the secretary to the president of Xinde Aviation, received the call, frowned, and said in a displeased tone, "Brother Tai just finished taking his medicine and went to sleep, now he is waking him up to beat him up."

"Brother Shui, I can't help it." Chen Wentao, the person in charge of the terminal, stood in a telephone booth and said anxiously, "The convoy and the bulk carrier are waiting at the terminal. Now the cruise ship is being taken away by the customs. What happens next? manage?"

"Is it really the customs?" Ah Shui said suspiciously.

Chen Wentao said: "The investigation has been clear, and the ship has sailed into the berth involved in the case in Victoria Harbour."

"it is good."

"Leave it to me." Ah Shui hung up the phone, stood in the living room, and lit a cigarette.Tai Ge had trouble falling asleep due to his early years of wandering at sea, and the most annoying thing was that someone disturbed him to sleep.If Brother Tai sleeps well today, he will be in a good mood all day. If Brother Tai doesn't sleep well all night, he will be extremely irritable the next day.

The doctor has prescribed sleeping and conditioning medicines, but Tai Ge usually does not take them, and always lies in bed waiting to fall asleep.

He hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't go upstairs to wake up Brother Tai, but called the customs person to communicate first.

Day two.

morning.

Huo Guantai washed up and came to the dining room. He saw Ah Shui, Chen Wentao, and A Biao sitting in a row, with a slightly surprised expression, and pointed to the dining table: "Let's go to the table and eat breakfast first."

"Thank you Taige."

"Thank you boss." The three of them got up together, bowed and said hello, and then came to the dining table, sat down with apprehensive expressions, and looked at each other from time to time, like little brats who did something wrong.Seeing the three of them, Huo Guantai knew that something happened to the freighter yesterday, after the servant served the three of them millet porridge, he drank the porridge with side dishes, and chatted while eating at a leisurely pace.

"A Biao, what's the matter with the head injury?" He first glanced at A Biao among the three.Because, there was a white cloth wrapped around A Biao's head, and there was a scar on the right side, with bright red blood oozing out.A Biao forced out a smile, instead of being as tough as he was on the boat, he looked a bit tiger-headed, and said naively: "Brother Tai, I was beaten."

"Nonsense, can't I see that I was beaten!" Huo Guantai picked up a piece of cabbage and threw it into his mouth: "I ask who you beat!"

"People from the customs department." A Biao lowered his head, a little embarrassed: "Last night, the people from the customs department went crazy and checked the Canghai number."

"Are you all right, brothers?" Huo Guantai asked.

A Biao shook his head: "It's okay, everyone is released on bail and rests in the company's dormitory building."

"Ah Shui, tell me." Huo Guantai turned his eyes to his confidant, Ah Shui, who put down his bowl and chopsticks, and replied seriously: "Brother Tai, I sent someone to check. Yesterday's action was ordered by the Director of Customs, Du Yihua. They came here specifically for the Cang Hai."

"Currently, the Cang Hai and all the cargo on board are detained in Victoria Harbour."

"I contacted several customs captains, but no one dared to release the goods out of the port. Things are a bit tricky."

Huo Guantai's expression was a little ugly, and he said: "This batch of steel contains 700 tons of steel, with a market value of more than [-] million Hong Kong dollars. The customs department will detain it if they say so? No reason at all!"

Ah Shui's eyes showed timidity, and he thought about it: "The customs ghost said that smuggling is the reason."

In the restaurant, there was a sudden silence, and the atmosphere seemed to freeze.

At present, the most expensive and largest cargo cruise ship in Sindh Shipping is the "Cang Hai" that runs the route from the Soviet Union to Hong Kong Island. Cloud sails help the sea."

This cruise ship is not only worth more than ten million Hong Kong dollars, but also a milestone for Huo Guantai in the shipping industry.The [-] tons of steel on the freighter are used to build real estate. Since the Huo Group obtained the river sand franchise in the Mainland, the Huo Group has intervened in the upstream raw material supply chain of the real estate industry, not only importing river sand in the Mainland, but also The Soviet Union imported steel.The number gang "Ge Zhixiong" opened a special rolling mill in Kowloon, responsible for rolling steel billets into suitable steel bars, steel pipes, etc.
At present, the production capacity of steel in the mainland is not high, and industrialization has just begun, so there is not enough steel and cement in the mainland, let alone exporting to foreign countries.Heavy industrial plants such as steel, chemical, and cement are often representatives of a country's industrial strength.

There is also a shortage of iron ore in Hong Kong Island, so large-scale steel products have to be imported from abroad, and some steel products can even be resold into the mainland.The main importing country is the Soviet Union, where the steel output is large, the quality is high, and the price is good, which can be described as world-class.

Huo Guantai ate and drank enough, put down the soup bowl, and said: "I think the ghost thinks that Xinde's ship is easy to bully, if you want to play with me, you can play with me, okay!"

"Check my ship, detain my goods, and I will play with them!"

"Ah Shui, A Biao, your name is Dabideng, and Ge Zhixiong came to see me at the company at noon. I have something to talk to them about."

Ah Shui and Ah Biao quickly said, "Yes, Huo Sheng."

"Let's go to the company." Huo Guantai got up and left the table, stepped out of the house without looking back, got in the car and went directly to the office of "Huo Xiantang Real Estate".After he finished processing a batch of documents on the table, he looked up and saw that it was almost noon. Then he picked up the landline phone and dialed a series of numbers: "Dudu."

"Hey?"

He Dingxian sat in the office, picked up the phone, and said casually, "Who else is?"

"I'm Huo Guantai." Huo Guantai couldn't express his anger and anger, and said, "Sir, are you free to come to the company at noon for a shareholder meeting?"

"Brother Tai."

He Dingxian smiled lightly, and asked aloud, "Do you have a meal?"

"Abalone and lobster are not available, but pork chop rice can be ordered." Huo Guantai said in a relaxed tone, joking casually.He Dingxian immediately looked down at his watch, and opened his mouth to agree: "OK, I'll be there in 10 minutes."

"By the way, which company are you in?"

"Real estate company." Huo Guantai asked, "Did you forget the company name so quickly?"

"I have several joint stock companies, and each company has a building. If you don't tell me, I know a little bit." He Dingxian said hastily: "Okay, see you later."

"See you later."

Huo Guantai hung up the phone, beckoned the subordinates outside the glass door to come in, and confessed: "He Sheng will come to the company later, and go to the downstairs restaurant to pack some meals."

"Got it, Huo Sheng."

The female secretary was wearing a black red-soled high heel, a gray suit with a hip skirt, and black stockings.I saw her nodding her head in agreement before closing the door, stepping on her high heels and leaving smartly.

Fifteen minutes later, He Dingxian brought two subordinates to Huo Xiantang Real Estate Company. The staff along the way bowed and greeted him: "He Sheng."

"He Sheng."

He Dingxian also nodded slightly to the staff to express his greetings. As for the staff, he was recognized as the company's second largest shareholder and the only boss. His name was posted on the management structure diagram at the entrance of the cafeteria. They are all in one place, but they don't have a position on them, and below them are directors, managers, and department heads at all levels.

He asked his two subordinates to stay outside, and when he pushed open the glass door of the office, Huo Guantai was fiddling with lunch boxes with the female secretary.When He Dingxian saw that the female secretary had a good-looking body and an intelligent appearance, her buttocks were tilted, her back bent over high heels, she quickly raised her palm, showing feigned shock, and quickly apologized: "Sorry to bother you, I'll come back later. "

"Is 10 minutes enough?"

Without waiting for Huo Guantai's reaction, he closed the door and turned around to leave.

"Come back for dinner!"

Inside the house, Huo Guantai shouted.

He Dingxian adjusted his suit, turned around and pushed the door open, showing a cautious expression: "Brother Tai, it's less than three seconds. So fast?"

Huo Guantai rolled his eyes, sat on the sofa, and waved: "Come in for dinner."

"Okay." He Dingxian walked into the office and passed the female secretary, looked him up and down unabashedly, and received a polite smile from the female secretary.After sitting down, he picked up his chopsticks and said with a narrow smile, "Brother Tai, you're new?"

"correct."

"How is your ability?" He Dingxian blinked his eyes: "Isn't it great!"

Huo Guantai glanced at him angrily, and put a portion of red fish in front of him: "Eat it!"

"Oh, I really envy you. If you have something to do as a secretary, if you don't have something to do as a secretary." He Dingxian ran the train with his mouth full of mouth: "It's not like in the police force, where there are men all over the top, bottom, left, and right sides. I occasionally see a few female policemen, all of whom belong to the superintendent or the director. secretary."

"When can I have a beautiful female secretary in the office, dangling in black silk, and feed me?"

Huo Guantai ate his meal and said, "Just resign."

"forget it."

He Dingxian shook his head: "There are already three wives in the family, and if I raise one in the office, I will not be able to pay the food when I go home. Didn't I invite me to dinner at noon today, did I invite me to hold a shareholders' meeting? Tell me, the company encountered What's the matter?"

"A batch of goods from Xinde Shipping was inspected by the customs." Huo Guantai said: "The customs department is likely to sue the company. Not only will it have to pay more than 200 million customs duties, but the ship does not know when it will be returned."

It is a loss for the shipping company that the cruise ship stays at the port involved for an extra day.

Judging from the menacing appearance of the ghost, maybe even if the tax is paid, the goods will not be released, and the ship will not be released. If the government wants to make things difficult for you, there are many ways.

Just one procrastination tactic can cause heavy losses to the company.

"Tell me carefully, let me see if I can do my best." He Dingxian said while eating: "Although Xinde Shipping does not have my shares, the seized goods will affect the project of the real estate company, and that is me. thing."

As the second largest shareholder of Huo Xiantang Real Estate, he has no position in the company, but needs to help solve government troubles.And when Huo Guantai told the story from the beginning to the end, he had some guesses in his heart: "I'm afraid this matter is not simple, there may be someone behind it."

Huo Guantai ate his meal and said: "I think that the Customs Department cooperates with the police force. A large amount of fees are paid by the police force. They should listen to the police force. I invite you to help the staff and see if it works." To find a relationship, you don’t need to release the cargo ship directly, it’s enough to find out what’s going on behind the scenes.”

"The shipping company has been quarreling with the Customs Department, and there is nothing wrong with it. I wonder if I have offended anyone recently, and I don't know who is looking for trouble. If no one is behind the scenes, the Customs Department will definitely not attack Shun Tak Shipping. "

He Dingxian took a ladle of soup, drank it, and said with a wry smile: "That's where the problem lies."
