Chapter 1876 Uncle is Disappointed with Po
Chapter 1876 Uncle is Disappointed with Po
Why is it embarrassing?
In just three short years, Abao has grown from a carp to a dragon, and with the help of his uncle, he has become the famous Mr. Bao on the Yellow River Road, and his foreign trade business is booming.
As a new upstart in Shanghai, I naturally heard some things.
For example, the only woman he ever loved deeply, originally named Xuezhi but later changed her name to Betty, was close to Wu Mingfan and is now the general manager of his trading company.
It is rumored that the two have an unusual relationship.
Although I didn't want to believe it, it was indeed true after investigation. I didn't know how long I was sad every time, so when I saw Wu Mingfan, I had an indescribable feeling in my heart, and I was also confused!
Because I made up my mind to do business because of the ten-year agreement. I wanted to achieve some results to show her that I was not someone who was not worthy of trust.
The result turned out to be like this. Suddenly I couldn’t find the motivation to strive forward.
However, he was able to get started thanks to the support of Wu Mingfan. Even this American suite was given to him by him. A Bao couldn't say much and could only feel uncomfortable in his heart.
"Hello... Mr. Wu!" He shook hands gently, but quickly let go and stepped back to the uncle's side, with no intention of speaking.
"Alas~" The uncle shook his head slightly, feeling a little disappointed with his child.
He was an experienced man and had discovered early on that his disciple was good in every way except when it came to women. Although he was not passionate, he was affectionate towards them and just couldn't handle his relationships with them well.
Wang Mingzhu from No. 27, Lingzi from Night Tokyo, and the proprietress of Golden Phoenix, these women are all stupid.
The man in front of him is now extraordinary. He is no longer the unknown person who came to Lanqiao five years ago. According to the information he has, he has made a big name in Hong Kong in the past few years. He has made a fortune in trade in recent years and has extensive connections in various provinces.
The uncle has some ideas for the two. For example, if they can cooperate for mutual benefit, then Abao's strength will be further improved. Because there is news that the Shanghai Stock Exchange will be reopened at the end of the year, and by then, stocks and foreign trade will go hand in hand, then his basic base will be stabilized, and he can retire with great success in two years.
Now it seems...
Wu Mingfan on this side also smiled faintly and didn't take Abao too seriously. In other words, even without him, these two people would never be able to succeed.
Because Betty is a person with a strong sense of self-esteem, she does not allow herself to go back to her old friends when she is down and out. She has to grit her teeth and hold on even if it means picking up garbage.
From the moment she made the decision 12 years ago, her relationship with Po was destined to end.
"Uncle, how are you feeling recently?" Wu Mingfan was too lazy to try to please someone so he didn't even look at Abao.
“Very good!”
The two chatted for more than half an hour, and Wu Mingfan also told the old man in front of him about his future development plans in Shanghai.
He raised his hand and glanced at the Rolex on his wrist.
"Uncle, Mr. Bao!"
"Please come to my humble home this Saturday. We have organized a small banquet!" Wu Mingfan stood up and took out two invitations from his arms.
Doing business now is different from that in the future, especially in a place like Shanghai. You have to make a name for yourself and let everyone feel that you are strong, so that subsequent plans will be stable.
"Okay, I'll go over!" The uncle usually stays at home and his main area of activity is the Peace Hotel. This time, it's a rare occasion that he plans to go out.
Po looked at the gold-embossed invitation, hesitated for a moment, then nodded, with his signature smile on his face.
"Thank you, Mr. Wu, for the invitation~" After coming out of the Peace Hotel, I got in the car and went home.
The new house is a Spanish-style building. It was built in 1942 and was originally owned by a Spanish businessman. Later, it changed owners several times. Finally, Wu Mingfan fell in love with this place when he returned to Shanghai a few years ago.
It had been changed beyond recognition, with more than 20 houses crammed in and various illegal self-built houses in the yard, completely lacking the historical beauty of the old house.
After more than a year of operation, the property rights issue was finally sorted out, and the renovation was not resumed until the New Year. Because Wu Mingfan had high requirements, the materials must be the same as when it was originally built, and the old house must be restored to its original appearance as much as possible, while also taking into account some modern facilities.
So after eight months of hard work, the room finally met the standards for check-in just a few days before I returned.
"boom!"
The car slowly drove into the compound.
The new home is located on Fuxing Road, very close to the Peace Hotel. It is an old villa with a single-family style, with two main and secondary buildings connected.
The first owner, a wealthy Spanish businessman, was a romantic man. The three-story brick and wood structure has a beige facade, a unique curved arch, rotating columns between the windows, and fancy iron railings and fancy earthen mound columns on the balcony, all in typical Spanish architectural style.
It covers an area of more than 500 square meters, and the most noteworthy thing is that there is a large garden of more than 200 square meters. The main building is surrounded by elegant gardens on three sides and is hidden among green trees and flowers.
The main building is for living. Wu Mingfan wanted a retro style when he bought the old house, so he asked the designer to restore it as much as possible. There are three double-bay floors above ground. The first floor has a spacious living room with a depth of ten meters, a guest room, and a specially decorated audio-visual room.
There are three rooms on the second floor, two on the south and one on the north. Each room is about 20 square meters and all have independent bathrooms. The most luxurious one is the master bedroom on the third floor. Even the mattress is imported, plus there is a spacious study.
Including the renovation and property rights processing, the whole thing cost several million. This was several million in the early 90s, which was definitely a sky-high price.
But it is also great value for money.
"Everyone remember, when you are working, you must..."
Butler Lao Zhao gathered all the servants in the yard. Halfway through his speech, he heard the sound of a car and hurriedly trotted over to meet the car. His agile movements did not seem like that of a man in his 50s at all.
He opened the back door skillfully, and the whole movement was smooth and fluid.
"Mr. Wu!"
"Well, Lao Zhao, this is the second time we meet!"
A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. In addition, Wu Mingfan was not short of money, so the new house not only hired two nannies, two cooks, a gardener and a housekeeper, but also had eight bodyguards working in two shifts.
Wu Mingfan took a lot of effort to choose the housekeeper. It took him more than half a year to finally decide on one. Although Old Zhao is only 55 years old this year, he has very rich experience.
When he was in his teens, he worked as a servant in a wealthy family in the old society. He was the kind of family-born son whose father used to be a housekeeper. If nothing unexpected happened, he would have inherited his father's business. However, with various changes later on, he could only work in a state-owned guesthouse.
It has been more than 30 years now, and the guesthouse is getting worse day by day. Plus, my children are growing up, so I gave my job to my son some time ago. I had nothing to do at home, so I was very happy to get the chance to work.
To be continued...
