Chapter 1862: Visiting, the role of uncle's recommendation letter

"Young man, are you going to Xiangjiang too?"

Wu Mingfan turned around when he heard the voice. Standing behind him was an uncle in a loose grey suit, who looked to be in his 40s. He was standing on the deck with excitement in his eyes that he could not hide.

He was holding an old-fashioned briefcase in his hand. This kind of outfit is more suitable for public officials. His excitement is understandable. He was probably sent on a business trip to Hong Kong, which is a good job these days.

"Yes, a distant relative of mine has no children. Now that he is old, I can only go over to take care of him when he receives a letter!"

Wu Mingfan continued with a smile.

His 3 US dollars were not wasted. There is a bug in the old version of Hong Kong's household registration book. The identity proof on it is not machine-printed. He has to fill in the identity proof by hand and paste a small -inch photo of himself.

Then, by spending some money and getting the police station there to stamp his document, Wu Mingfan would become a distant cousin with official indigenous status, and the Immigration Department would have no way to stop him.

Of course, this is only the case now, because the Hong Kong government has also realized this loophole and will soon popularize machine-printed identity documents. By then, stamps from police stations will no longer be effective.
Through chatting, the two of them became familiar with each other. This brother named Zhao Jiefang was a section chief in charge of foreign trade in a certain district. This time he came to Hong Kong specifically for inspection.

Of course, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is impossible for him to come alone in this situation. Otherwise, who can he go to if he runs away?

But there was an old comrade who was seasick. This landlubber had finally managed to get this opportunity, but he suffered from vomiting and diarrhea as soon as he got on board, and was now lying on the bed groaning.

More than an hour later in the restaurant.

"Xiao Wu, I didn't expect you to know so much about Hong Kong!" Zhao Jiefang looked at him with some respect.

Originally, he was very arrogant because of his status, but because he had nothing to do on the ship, he came over to talk to Wu Mingfan because he saw him in a suit and tie with an extraordinary temperament. However, he did not expect that he turned out to be very knowledgeable through chatting.

And he is actually from Hong Kong!
There is no way. Nowadays, Chinese people are very envious of the outside world.

"Woo~" The ship is about to arrive at Victoria Harbour.

Wu Mingfan was rich so he naturally couldn't afford to compromise. He had already spent 3 US dollars and could afford a single room, so he stayed in a second-class private room with a private bathroom.

I dressed neatly, polished my shoes, fixed my hair, and left the room in high spirits, but I was not in a hurry to leave!

"Knock knock knock!" There was a knock on the door.

"Xiao Wu~" Zhao Jiefang opened the door and saw Wu Mingfan and smiled with his teeth bared.

"Brother Zhao, we will arrive in Hong Kong soon. It is fate that we meet. We will see each other again!"

"Okay...Xiao Wu, wait a moment!" Zhao Jiefang ran back in a hurry, took out a notebook from his bag, tore off a piece of paper and wrote down a string of phone numbers.

"This is my workplace's phone number. Let's keep in touch when we return to Shanghai~"

"Okay, bye!"

Wu Mingfan also wanted to give the other person a contact method, but unfortunately he had no place to live now, so the distant relatives were just an excuse. In fact, he didn’t even know what the other person looked like.

Hong Kong is one of the largest cities in Asia and is not called one of the "Four Little Dragons" in vain. The Victoria Harbour is bustling with people and there are countless ships coming and going.

The moment Wu Mingfan got off the boat and looked at the tall buildings in the distance, he felt like he was returning to the city from the countryside. There was no way around it because Shanghai had not started its drastic construction in the mid-80s, and there was no trace of the Oriental Pearl Tower.

I hailed a taxi with my suitcase.

"Handsome guy, where are you going?" The taxi driver was wearing a floral shirt and shorts, and a gold necklace around his neck (of course it was unknown whether it was real or fake). He spoke Mandarin with not very fluent accents.

When he saw Wu Mingfan in the back row was dressed well, he thought he had met a fat sheep and immediately showed his big yellow teeth in joy.

"Deep Water Bay!" Wu Mingfan answered in very familiar Cantonese.

"Gudong~"

The taxi driver swallowed immediately. What is Deep Water Bay?
That is the most famous luxury residential area in Hong Kong! "Boom~" I didn't dare to say any more nonsense and drove quickly.

Wu Mingfan looked at the traffic outside and took out his uncle's letter of recommendation from his arms.

[A letter from Brother Qi Ran] These five big characters are so clear.

I don't know how much of a role it can play. To be honest, I'm a little nervous. After all, the other party's current identity is different from before, and my uncle is just an old wizard in Yongcheng who has fallen into poverty.

Will the other party give you face?
"Ding Dong!" At the door of No. 74 Deep Water Bay, Wu Mingfan was holding a gift in his hand.

A simple Ning's pastry from my hometown can be considered to be a way to please the other party. Otherwise, even if I gave him all the remaining 8 US dollars, I guess the other party would not even look at it highly. It is better to focus on the idea that the gift is small but the sentiment is great.

The production technology of Ning's pastries has a long history, dating back to the Tang and Song Dynasties. I have lived in Hong Kong in previous lives and knew that there was a particularly authentic pastry shop opposite Deep Water Bay. I specially bought some dragon and phoenix golden balls, crystal oil buns, Xikou thousand-layer cakes, etc.

"Who are you looking for?" An old man in his 60s opened the small door with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Wu Mingfan handed over the letter of recommendation respectfully.

"Hello, I came here to visit you as introduced by an old friend!"

When the doorman saw the name "Brother Qi Ran" on the recommendation letter, he was immediately shocked and took him seriously, as he thought it was an old man who had come from his hometown many years ago.

Very politely extended his hand to guide: "Please come in~"

"Thank you!" Wu Mingfan followed behind and stepped into the gate of the mansion. He did not look around, but of course he could feel that he was being watched. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the bodyguard.

After arriving in the living room and handing over the gift, he stood there obediently.

"Please take a seat. I will go and report to you."

"Sorry for the trouble, uncle!" This sentence is said in the local dialect.

The former housekeeper, who had worked for nearly 50 years, had stepped down due to old age and let someone else look after the gate. When he heard the familiar accent, his expression softened a little, and he personally helped pour a cup of tea before turning around and tiptoed upstairs.

The person Wu Mingfan came to see was none other than the boat charter king, one of the top ten richest men in Hong Kong!

To be honest, I didn't expect to be received in person this time. As long as I could say a few words, I would be able to get a big thumb up and have a backer in this small piece of land. From then on, the letter of recommendation played the biggest role.

The charter ship king, also known as Qi Ran, had a wealth of 1985 billion in 400. He was recognized by foreign media as the world's shipping king and one of the top ten richest people in Hong Kong. No. 74 Deep Water Bay is his family's mansion, and his neighbor No. 79 is the mansion of the famous Lao Li, and No. 80 is the mansion of the famous Xu family!

So it is unknown how much face the uncle can have. After all, the status of the two is too different now, and it is possible that the other party does not even remember it.

After about a few minutes, the butler came back.

"Young man, the master invites you over!"

Wu Mingfan was overjoyed. He didn't expect his uncle to be so prestigious!
I quickly followed him upstairs and met Baochuan Wang for the first time in the study on the third floor. He had a kind face and was a little fat.

"My boy, I love your gift!"

"Oh, my old friend..."

The meeting lasted less than three minutes in total. After receiving a business card, Wu Mingfan was taken away by the housekeeper. Don't think that he was being treated unfairly. Don't think that he was particularly admired and became a close friend regardless of age difference as soon as he met. You'd better dream about such a thing.

When he's not joking, Mr. Bao makes millions of dollars a second, so being able to meet an unknown person because of a letter of recommendation is already a great honor.

Because this business card represents the Bao family!
