I am many years in the courtyard

Chapter 460: It’s rude to come and not return.

"Let's talk about it after you make money."

In the anxious eyes of Braao and the others, Duan Nian said with a smile.

He doesn't care much about money.

What they care about is the attitude of Frank and others, as well as the stability of Somalia.

Next, for many years, I told them about the subsequent investment behavior, and nothing else mattered.

The important thing is that the oil or petroleum products you buy must be kept well and cannot be snatched away.

After all, the oil crisis is a big deal, and the Middle East will be in chaos by then.

However, Somalia has purchased so much oil and its armed forces are mediocre.

Isn't this just a child holding a gold ingot while shopping?

When the time comes, there will definitely be people who can't help but be tempted and want to take action.

Therefore, the key is to protect the home and the oil.

Braao and others also became serious, this is a big deal.

They used to be pirates, but they could just rob others.

Now, because they have money, they have to do a good job of defense to prevent their home from being robbed.

After being warned, I left Somalia this time many years ago.

After returning to Hong Kong Island, Rolls-Royce Group, Shinhwa Capital, Huimin Supermarket, etc. also continued to increase investment in an effort to make huge profits in the coming oil crisis.

In the office, Wen Hongwen was a little worried: he didn't have enough money.

Shinhwa Capital has many accounts with total funds exceeding HK$60 billion.

However, all this money was invested, but according to the boss's order, there was still not enough money.

If you want to maximize your profits but cannot increase leverage, you can only seek a bank loan.

During this oil crisis, for many years, I not only wanted to make a lot of money in the stock market and futures market, but also wanted to make a lot of money in the real economy.

So Wen Hongwen reported the matter to Duan Nian, who after pondering for a while, agreed.

However, he did not ask Wen Hongwen to directly approach Global Universe Bank for a loan.

Mainly because Global Universe Bank does not have that much cash to lend money.

And it doesn't fit either.

Using other people's money to make money for yourself is the best way.

So Wen Hongwen approached HSBC.

In Hong Kong Island, the richest bank should be HSBC.

However, Wen Hongwen met Shen Bi, general manager of HSBC Bank, who hoped to meet him for many years.

After hearing that it was Shen Bi, I was very surprised for many years.

Isn’t this person the future HSBC executive?
So he agreed.

In a high-end Cantonese restaurant in Central, Shen Bi set a table here to treat many years to dinner.

A total of three people ate together, with Wen Hongwen accompanying them.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Shen Bi finally smiled and said:
"Mr. Xu, is today's dish okay?"

"It's pretty good. I didn't expect Mr. Shen that your Chinese is so good and you like Chinese food so much."

“Haha, Chinese culture has a long history, is very charming, and attracts me very much.”

Shen Bi praised himself, then praised himself, and then got down to business.

The reason why I want to meet Michael is not simply because I think I am the best among people, but because I hope to meet Michael.

HSBC does a lot of business, but Rolls-Royce does a lot more.

Moreover, in today's Hong Kong Island, the Rolls-Royce Group is the real giant. If HSBC wants to continue to make breakthroughs, it can only seek new development.

"Hey, in my impression, the Rolls-Royce Group should have business dealings with your HSBC bank, right?"

Many years did not respond to the other party, but asked in surprise.

Although Michael is his vest, the cooperative relationship between HSBC and Rolls-Royce Group is not a secret.

As the founder of Huimin Supermarket, Yaya Toys Factory and many other companies, isn’t it normal to pay attention to these economic phenomena for many years?
So he wasn't afraid of what Shen Bi would find.

When Shen Bi heard this, he said bitterly:
"That's just a very superficial and one-sided cooperative relationship, and it's the people below who are responsible for it."

Immediately he gritted his teeth and said:
"Mr. Xu, if you agree to help me pull the strings, then on behalf of HSBC, I will reduce the interest rate by five points for you on this loan."

Quite generous!
He smiled happily for many years, but said disapprovingly:
"Actually, as for the loan, I don't care whether it's interest or not. The key thing is, I still want to know, Mr. Shen, what are you planning to discuss with Michael?"

"This is actually just cooperation."

Shen Bi was embarrassed, but still did not reveal his true purpose.

In this case, many years ago, I had to say that the meal tonight was very good and I was very grateful for the hospitality.

Hearing this tactful rejection, Shen Bi was stunned.

After coming back to his senses, he immediately stood up to block Duan Nian and gave up another five points.

Wen Hongwen, who had been silent next to him, couldn't help but wink at Duan Nian.

If it drops by another five points, then the interest on this loan can be said to be very, very small.

You know, this time, the total amount of Shinhwa Capital's loan is one billion US dollars, which is approximately 56 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Such a huge amount of money is almost equivalent to the cash currently held by Shinhwa Capital.

Of course, HSBC is not an idiot. How could it lend so much without collateral?
A bank is not a charity, people also need to eat.

In this case, many years ago, he agreed first and then said that he would just wait for his notification.

A few days later, Shen Bi received a call from many years ago.

Then Shen Bi couldn't wait to come to an office building near Xintiandi Plaza. This is one of the properties of the Rolls-Royce Group and one of the places where Michael usually works.

For many years, I have been waiting for him in the reception room, and there is Sanders next to him.

Sanders is a member of the boss's secretarial team of the R&D center and has been a friend of the boss for many years.

After meeting, Many Years asked Shen Bi to wait in the reception room. Michael had just been called away by an emergency call and had to wait.

After a while, he excused himself to go to the bathroom and left.

Then Michael showed up.

Shen Bi stopped thinking so much and started communicating with Michael excitedly.

After some exchanges, it took many years to find out that Shen Bi wanted the Rolls-Royce Group to hand over part of its deposit business to HSBC, as well as the financial work of some branches, etc. to HSBC.

In return, HSBC will give you interest that exceeds the market rate.

Gee!
Why does it sound so mysterious that a bank is asking for money from a private company like the Rolls-Royce Group?

Not to mention, during this period of time, HSBC has money, but it cannot support its big business and many places to spend money.

Since the beginning of this year, Hong Kong Island's economy has experienced fluctuations, especially the real estate industry, which has continued to slump.

Because house prices have fallen again.

Although it has not reached the lowest point yet, the economic situation is no longer optimistic.

People are borrowing money everywhere, and HSBC is also in a hurry.

On the contrary, Rolls-Royce Group has too many cash cows.

Not to mention the first half of the year, the Rolls-Royce Group sold [-] civil aviation aircraft, bringing in more than US$[-] million.

Even the automobile business sector, financial investment sector, film and record sector, etc., still have very amazing revenue.

PolyGram Records Group is a company whose major shareholder is Rolls-Royce Group, and its smaller shareholders are Yaya Toy Factory, Shinhwa Capital, etc.

Since the acquisition of PolyGram in [-], the company has also grown rapidly.

Not only did it continue to work in the record industry, but after selling Philips' original products, PolyGram also entered Hollywood and invested in movies.

For example, in recent years, Bruce Lee, the most popular actor in the world, is an actor under PolyGram.

The word Kung Fu has been mentioned many times by many foreign media and will soon become a word in the dictionary.

Many movies such as The Way of the Dragon, Fist of Heroes, and Hurricane Rescue were released one after another. In just the past six and seven months, two Bruce Lee movies were released, and the box office broke records.

The cumulative global box office of these two movies exceeded US$[-] million.

Although this part of the money has to be distributed to movie theaters, actors, etc., the money earned by PolyGram is definitely not small.

Therefore, the revenue from the film and music sector is also a large sector of the Rolls-Royce Group.

With such a brilliant performance, it is impossible for HSBC to ignore it.

After listening to Shen Bi's words for many years, I suddenly wanted to laugh.

Although the Rolls-Royce Group is very wealthy, most of its business is handed over to Universal Bank.

Leave it to HSBC?

He was also afraid that the other party would lose all his money.

However, since the other party has come to the door, cooperation is certain, but it is not this kind of cooperation.

It’s not that HSBC doesn’t have money, it just wants someone to fight risks together.

Starting in the 50s, through the 60s, and now in the 70s, Hong Kong Island's economy has been experiencing ups and downs.

Although overall, Hong Kong Island's economy is in an upward stage.

However, every certain time, the economy always declines, which is scary.

For example, in Hong Kong Island now, the stock market has declined rapidly since it reached its peak at the end of last year.

The Hang Seng Index is just like diving, falling all the way, and it keeps falling.

The building jumping incident in the middle of last year also continues to occur this year.

This is not a movie, but a real thing. The citizens of Hong Kong Island are afraid.

As a result, many people are afraid to invest in the stock market.

The same is true for housing prices. All the way down, prices have almost fallen below the level of [-] years.

This is a frightening economic crisis. Who is not afraid?
Of course, I won’t be afraid after many years.

That's why he agreed to cooperate with Shen Bi and continue to work on some big projects.

Needless to say, HSBC is indeed a big bank on Hong Kong Island, and its connections and resources are really not comparable to those of Global Universe Bank.

After doing all these things, I didn't go out again for many years.

I stay at home with my wife and children, and occasionally pay attention to the operations of those companies, and that's it.

As a boss, I know how to enjoy myself over the years.

Otherwise, what is the purpose of making so much money?

Don’t forget your original intention and keep your mission in mind!
The original intention of making money is naturally to enjoy life better.

Instead of being dominated by the purpose of making money, forgetting the meaning of life.

Time flies like water, and in a blink of an eye, it is already the beginning of the school season in September.

"The first college student in our family is going to school."

In Villa No. 72, Deep Water Bay, Qin Huairu said with a smile as she looked at the little boy who was about to report to the University of Hong Kong.

Beside them, Xiaodou hugged their children with an envious expression on their faces.

Children born to the same parents are so different, and children born to different parents are even more different.

"Xiaodoubao, Xiaotuanzi, let me confirm with you again. You will also be in your senior year of high school this semester, right?"

At the door of the house, many years looked at the two little guys seriously and asked each word.

Twins born in 14, they are already [-] years old this year.

Now he is over 1.7 meters tall, a little taller than their mother.

Qin Huairu's height is 1.6 meters, which is not considered short among women.

But in front of my two daughters, it was still not enough.

"Yes, Dad, I confirm!"

Both children nodded and agreed that they would be in their third year of high school and take the college entrance examination next year.

They don't want to be left behind as little ones anymore.

Bai Doufu rolled her eyes. She should study step by step and not do anything special.

Well, actually she is special enough.

As a star writer, whenever I go to class, I am always surrounded by classmates.

Although it has been a long time now, everyone is used to it.

But some people still come over from time to time to ask, for example, when will the new album be released?Will I go make a movie or something like that?

In Hong Kong Island in [-], entertainment was already relatively developed.

In particular, the appearance of Bruce Lee, an international superstar, made the citizens of Hong Kong even more proud.

After all, Bruce Lee was from Hong Kong Island, and he often visited Hong Kong Island. Everyone regarded him as one of their own.

Different from the original time and space, Bruce Lee in this time and space became famous in the PolyGram Company, and there were not so many messy things.

As for dying young, it didn't happen.

Anyway, it's already September of [-], and Bruce Lee is still alive and well, so I feel relieved after many years.

The two children, Brother Jing and Hot Wheels, remained silent and even hid, hoping that their father would not see them.

Compared with the two sisters who are trying to catch up, the two brothers Jing Geer are lagging behind.

Lying flat seems to be synonymous with them.

I haven't bothered to tell them this for many years. Anyway, I have looked away and they can do whatever they like.

Forcing them to study will only be counterproductive.

The Rolls-Royce started slowly, and many years ago and Qin Huairu drove the children to school respectively.

The University of Hong Kong is on Pok Fu Lam Road, near Sheung Wan.

It's not far from Deep Water Bay, it's very close if you go past Sassoon Road.

At the school gate, for many years the little ones were sent inside to report.

The senior sister, who was wearing her welcome uniform, saw the father and son who had been together for many years and walked over with a warm smile:

"Hello, are you a new student coming to HKU to report?"

"Yes, senior, I am a freshman and this is my admission letter."

The little boy handed over the admission notice. After reading it, the senior sister returned it and said with a smile:
"Well, I'll take you two brothers to the reporting office to report."

Two brothers?
Hearing this for many years, the little boy smiled helplessly and explained:
"Senior, this is my dad, not my brother."

what?
The seniors were shocked, because for many years the father and son looked like two brothers, with no sense of incompatibility.

The main reason is that he is too young for many years, and the little one is only about 1.6 meters tall, which makes him look a lot shorter than his father.

But the little one is only 13 years old, and her body is still developing.

"I'm sorry, you look very young. I thought you were two brothers."

"It doesn't matter, this isn't the first time." Duan Nian chuckled.

The three of them chatted while going to the reporting office to report.

After the registration was over, the little boy stayed at the school.

He definitely doesn't live on campus, but in a villa on Sassoon Road. He can go back to Deep Water Bay at any time on weekends or if he gets homesick.

Anyway, the distance between HKU and No. 72 Deep Water Bay is only seven or eight kilometers, which is really close.

When I returned to the Deep Water Bay Villa, I had already registered the names of my two children, Brother Jing and Hot Wheels, for many years.

Then he talked to Qin Huairu about the mistake he had just made, but he didn't expect that she would be the same.

"You don't even know how surprised the teachers and parents were when they heard that we were mother and daughter."

Qin Huairu was in a very good mood, dancing and talking about what happened just now.

There were small bean buns and small dumplings nearby who chimed in a few words from time to time. This cheerful atmosphere made the child Xu Yi couldn't help but jump up and down, especially wanting to participate.

After all these years, Qin Huairu's face has not left any traces of time.

But the gentleness and maturity in his eyes cannot be deceived.

What's more, although Xiaodoubao and Xiaotuanzi are taller, they are still too immature.

Coupled with their slender figures, they are obviously different from their mothers.

Just being mistaken for sisters instead of mother and daughter made Qin Huairu so excited that she couldn't find the answer.

This is really interesting.

After the school season, Xu Yi was also sent to kindergarten.

Different from the previous three days of fishing and two days of drying nets, this time she stayed in the kindergarten around the clock.

I went home for lunch at noon.

Anyway, just send her to the kindergarten and let her play with other kids of the same age.

As for learning these, it is just incidental.

She is still too young, and I have only taught her some simple enlightenment movements for many years.

Anyway, they had some red bean buns before, and Xu Yi would definitely have them as well.

As time goes by, October has arrived.

Cairo and Damascus brazenly sent troops to the Hebrews, and chaos began again in the Middle East.

The love-hate relationship between Arabs and Jews can be said to have lasted for thousands of years.Even in this era, or in other words, in [-] in later generations, the turmoil has still not stopped.

After sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight for many years, I have already waved my sickle and waited for the oil crisis to come.

People like Frank and Burao from Somalia are also ready to go.

Now that a war has broken out in the Middle East, they can guess what will happen next.

However, now is not the time to sell oil, just wait slowly.

Soon, a group of Middle Eastern tycoons who used oil as a weapon began to impose various restrictions, embargoes, etc.

They all hope to use this to coerce Western countries like Bald Eagle and change the situation of siding with Hebrews.

During the oil embargo during the war, international oil prices rose from three dollars per barrel to twelve dollars.

The rapid increase in oil made Frank and others happy and inspired.

Many Western merchant ships that originally wanted to purchase oil from the other side of the Gulf of Aden went to Somalia to purchase oil this time.

How interesting!
Somalia is not an oil-producing area. How much oil is there?
However, many people who knew the inside story kept their heads down and ran to Somalia, and then left full of oil.

The international price of oil is twelve dollars a barrel, but it is only sold in Somalia for eleven dollars, which is a full dollar cheaper.

Although it is still very expensive, after all, it used to cost three dollars a barrel.

But no one can do anything about it. Who makes oil expensive all over the world now?
Compared with the chaos in the Middle East, there is also some chaos in Asia.

Mainly Hong Kong Island.

In the past ten months before October, the oil shipped back from Hong Kong Island from all over the world completely exceeded US$400 billion of oil.

It is definitely the region with the highest growth rate of oil imports in the world this year.

Before such a crazy move, many economists, commercial spies, etc. wanted to know the underlying reasons.

As a result, at this time, when Tokyo, Medan, Seoul, Bay Island and other places were frantically looking for cheap oil, Hong Kong Island took action.

On sale for the low price of eleven dollars.

hiss!
Only then did everyone realize that Hong Kong Island still had such foresight?

But it should be said that this time, Hong Kong Island really made money.

Since the end of [-], international oil prices have been soaring.

"Now the meeting begins."

In a building office in Central, Hong Kong Island, a meeting was held many years ago.

"International oil prices are still rising. We must seize this opportunity to make money and sell a large amount of this oil."

"We need a lot of cash to pay it all out before February, do you understand?"

Wen Hongwen and others all nodded.

They no longer have any objections to the boss's decision.

Just follow the boss.

A large amount of oil is stored on Hong Kong Island, although the warehouse, labor, freight, etc. in the past ten months have been a huge expense.

However, at that time, their price was less than three US dollars, and they were purchasing in large quantities. With freight, etc., the cost would not be more than three and a half US dollars per barrel.

Now, it was sold for eleven dollars.

The difference in price was only US$[-], which directly made more than twice the profit.

More than twice the profit, it’s simply not too strong.

Just like Shinhwa Capital, it invested 120 billion Hong Kong dollars successively, and after deducting the interest on the 56 billion loan, it still made more than twice the profit.

All in all, it probably made more than 240 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Such a capital feast does not happen often.

Other companies such as Rolls-Royce Group have also seen rapid surges in revenue and profits.

In this wave, the financial investment sector within the group is finally proud.

Their revenue this time will definitely exceed the previous revenue from the civil aviation segment.

Many of its companies have been extremely happy for many years.

On the other hand, the bald eagle looked sad.

Because of the oil crisis, Bald Eagle, Tokyo, Europe and other places were caught off guard and fell into the worst economic recession after the war.

Bald Eagle's GDP is predicted by economists to drop by [-] percent.

You know, the Bald Eagle's economy is the largest in the world, and it is a completely behemoth.

Down four point seven, that's a big deal.

And the chain reaction caused by this was that the Hong Kong Hang Seng Index fell by 75% after plummeting by 60% last year.

For a time, the entire Hong Kong stock market was in mourning.

This caused a strange phenomenon.

Obviously Hong Kong Island's cargo terminals, airport cargo, etc. have always been very busy, which is a sign of economic prosperity.

However, the small group of people who speculate in the stock market wailed in pain in front of newspapers, TV stations and other media, saying that Hong Kong Island's economy was in recession.

In fact, not so.

The real economy is developing rapidly, and only speculators have become the unlucky ones in this oil crisis.

Yaya Toy Factory, Comfortable Company, Rolls-Royce Group, Huimin Supermarket, FamilyMart, Shengmeng Seafood Supermarket, etc. These are all enterprises that have been under the name of Michael for many years.

These companies were not affected by the oil crisis at all.

It can't be said that there is none at all, it can only be said that it has been smoothed away.

For example, Huimin Supermarket.

Its market base is actually the Bald Eagle. Today, the total number of supermarkets has exceeded 200 and continues to expand.

With the advent of the oil crisis, the cost of trans-Asia shipping and high-speed logistics will definitely increase rapidly.

However, they also sought bank loans and invested in oil, thus directly eliminating this part of the cost.

There is even a very high revenue. The money was originally invested in opening new stores six months ago, but it was only enough to open fifteen stores at most.

But this time the revenue was enough to open forty new stores, and it was more than enough.

If it weren't for the need to reserve some funds to ensure operation, let alone 45 companies, [-] companies would be fine.

In addition, the consumption of some local Bald Eagle residents has indeed declined.

Although not much, it was still affected to some extent.

As [-] goes by and [-] arrives, I have been looking forward to the future more and more for many years.

Not long after New Year's Day, trouble came to the door.

In the second half of last year, Air Arabia, which had initialed a civil passenger aircraft agreement with Rolls-Royce Group, had this large order snatched away by Boeing.

After hearing this news for many years, I was surprised.

He was not angry, but surprised.

Because he had already started to guard against Boeing, an old silver coin company.

To be precise, he was part of a wiretapping unit that was on guard against bald eagles.

However, what he didn't expect was that even though he had initialed the agreement, he would still be pried away by Boeing.

As the person in charge of Rolls-Royce in Hong Kong Island, Alexander was really under a lot of pressure this time.

When he heard about this for the first time, he was very angry. He personally took a plane to the Middle East and asked the wealthy people why they had betrayed their trust.
But in business matters, as long as it is profitable, who will tell you integrity?

You know, this is not a benefit of tens of dollars, but a benefit of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.

The price offered by Boeing is very low, much cheaper than the price of Rolls-Royce Group.

All fools know that they are going to choose Boeing, so even if the agreement is initialed, so what?
Alexander was furious and asked sternly: "Can Boeing's aircraft technology be as powerful as our Rolls-Royce Group?"

"Tch, why is there no more?"

The wealthy representative snorted disdainfully, "Your Rolls-Royce Group is just a rising star, while Boeing Company is the old-timer, okay?"

"Aren't you fighting against the Bald Eagle? Why are you still cooperating with Boeing?"

"Although we are rich, we are not taken advantage of, understand?"

After hearing this, there was no intention to continue the conversation.

However, it is of course impossible not to recover this place.

For many years, I didn’t really want to make a move. After all, this was just an order worth [-] million US dollars.

In the past half year, he has made tens of billions of dollars, which is a lot of money.

Moreover, he was still gathering bald eagles and wool from Tokyo, which made him very happy.

Today, there is still a war in the Middle East, and the war is far from over.

Oil prices are still at a high level, and we don't know yet whether they will come down and how much they will fall.

This year’s Spring Festival comes very early, January 22nd is the Lunar New Year’s Eve.

Therefore, Alexander was left to figure things out for many years, and then he took his family back to the capital.

During the Spring Festival this year, Xiaodoubao and the others did not return to the capital because they needed to review and did not want to go back and forth.

The little one didn't go back either, he still stayed here on Hong Kong Island.

Now that the children have grown up, they all have their own ideas, but they won't go back for a year or two, and they won't be forced for many years.

Only Brother Jing and the others are very playful. Whenever there is a program to go out to play, the two brothers are always indispensable.

Not to mention white tofu, she now feels a little bit like lying down.

You already have enough money. If you want to study, just follow the steps.

Besides, her IQ is still good enough, and she can get into the top five in her grade every time.

Although it is not as good as the little one and two older sisters, it is already very powerful.

After the Spring Festival, I returned to Hong Kong Island for many years and had nothing to do, and then I prepared to help Alexander and avenge this revenge.

Boeing is preparing to win an order from an airline in South America, worth about US$[-] million.

The South American market is Boeing's back garden. If Rolls-Royce Group wins this market, it will definitely make a fortune.

And not only did he take revenge, he also inserted a needle into Boeing's heart.

Therefore, he personally traveled to South America many years ago to assist the Rolls-Royce Group and win orders from this airline.

And for many years, Alexander was told not to publicize the matter until the aircraft was delivered, so as to avoid any trouble.

Of course, Alexander hurriedly agreed.

As for the South American airlines, they naturally cooperated actively.

Airlines don't know exactly how much a civil aviation passenger aircraft costs. Only the manufacturer itself knows best.

Even different aircraft manufacturers have different costs.

For example, between Boeing and Rolls-Royce Group, the labor costs of the former are definitely the highest, but what about the latter?

Except for R&D personnel and engineers in important positions, it is on par with companies such as Boeing and Airbus, but other labor costs are much less.

After all, Rolls-Royce Group pays in Hong Kong dollars, while Boeing pays in US dollars.

Although the Bretton Woods system collapsed, the status of the U.S. dollar is not as good as before.

But it is still the most common currency unit in the world.

LATAM Airlines is trying to contain Boeing and try its best to deal with it.

As time passed, Boeing quickly came to its senses: Could this bastard have already found a supplier?

So people from Boeing took the time to investigate and discovered that the Rolls-Royce Group suddenly added two new factories two months ago.

Tsk, Hong Kong Island is not very big. It is still very difficult to hide.

That's why Boeing found the reason so quickly.

Of course, Boeing was very angry after being snatched away from orders by Rolls-Royce.

Although they also grabbed orders from Rolls-Royce before, they still lost more than 3 million U.S. dollars, a huge loss.

This is how Liang Zi was formed. If there is a chance in the future, he will definitely find it again.

As for the follow-up to this matter, I haven’t been involved in it for many years.

March has passed, and April has arrived as scheduled. This year’s Qingming Festival, I still have to return to the capital to worship.

At this point in time, he wanted to go back to his hometown to worship earlier than Lao Xu.

Only he can't.

Even if he repairs the old house in advance, he will not do it.

If he makes a mistake, even if he has a lot of credit, it will still be very troublesome.

He has always stayed away from the word trouble.

In Beijing, it has been clearly felt for many years that the atmosphere in Beijing was very different in [-].

What the specific differences were, he couldn't tell for a while.

Generally speaking, the Siberian cold wind is not so sharp.

After worshiping my ancestors, staying in Beihe Hutong for a few days, and visiting my father-in-law and mother-in-law in Qinjiagou, I returned to Hong Kong Island with my children after many years.

In the first half of the year, the stock market in Hong Kong was still very volatile.

The Hang Seng Index is like an electrocardiogram, fluctuating up and down, making people panic.

In October, dates from Somalia traveled across the ocean on ocean ships and entered the market on Hong Kong Island.

During the date harvest season last October, the roughly processed dates were packaged and transported directly to Bald Eagle for sale.

I thought the market response was lukewarm, but unexpectedly it turned out to be extremely popular and extremely popular.

We haven’t invited celebrities to endorse it yet. We just sold it on the most conspicuous shelf of Huimin Supermarket, and then it was sold out in minutes.

Later, after analysis, I found out that dates are delicious, have high nutritional value, and are very cheap, so they are loved by the general public.

The cost of dates produced in Somalia is not high. The cost of dates per kilogram is only a few tenths of a cent.

Including processing, transportation and other costs, the cost to the Bald Eagle is only [-] cents.

The ex-factory price is four cents, which means the Somali side can earn two and a half cents.

When it was put on the shelves at Huimin Supermarket, the price reached [-] cents.

The price of nine point nine cents is actually quite expensive.

But for Bald Eagle citizens, the price is still very cheap.

It was precisely because the dates sold in [-] were so cheap that I felt I was losing money for many years.

In addition to feeling like a loss, the amount of dates was not large, so they were unable to supply the market on Hong Kong Island.

Therefore, in October this year, after the dates were produced, freighters were arranged for many years to be the first to transport them to Hong Kong Island for sale.

As a result, as soon as he brought the dates home, a lot of dates appeared in his house.

"Brother, you are back. Come and try some. Is this the date you mentioned last year? They are all available on the market this year."

Xiaomei saw her brother and waved quickly.

Her daughter Gu Tingting also imitated her mother's gestures, picked up a date and handed it to Nuanian.

"Have you all bought them?"

After years of looking weird, he immediately showed a smile and picked up Gu Tingting, "Thank you Tingting, you are so good!"

Gu Tingting was born at the end of [-]. It is now October of [-], and she is almost two years old.

The little guy was very happy, shouting "Eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, eat". He had to eat the dates she gave him for many years.

There are many dates placed on the table in the living room.

Qin Huairu said with a smile beside her. They seemed to have agreed upon it and went to buy it together. They didn't know how long they would eat so many dates.

Bai Tofu said helplessly:

"Mom, there are so many people in our family, so we won't be able to eat these dates for a long time. Besides, these dates have been packaged and have a shelf life of half a year."

Current preservation methods such as preservatives are limited, and the best consumption time of dates is six months. This is already a very good preservation technology.

"That's right, the fourth uncle's family probably didn't buy it, right? We'll just send some over later." Xiaodou Bao also interjected.

Their children bought all of them without even ventilating them before buying them.

Everyone has a small treasury, and they spend money without mercy.

This means that when each of them buys these dates, they buy them according to the maximum amount.

After all, there are nine people in Duan Nian's family alone, including aunts like Li Jinlian and their grandfather.

Moreover, Xiaomei and Xiaoqian's family often come to the house as guests, as does Xu Qianqian's family.

Therefore, when buying something, it is natural to consider the weight.

For many years, I only went to the warehouse to pick up the goods after receiving a notice.

But because he received a temporary call from the Rolls-Royce Group, he didn't go to the warehouse to get the dates until very late.

I originally wanted to give my family a surprise, but I didn't expect that he received the surprise first.

"Okay, okay, if you buy it, buy it. If you can't finish it, eat it slowly. If it doesn't work, I will use it as a welfare for the employees."

Seeing Qin Huairu quarreling with the children again, Many Years quickly stood up and said.

But just as he finished speaking, the little boy walked in, also holding a large bag of things in his hand.

Brother Jing couldn't help but said:
"Brother, what are you carrying in your hand? It's not dates again, is it?"

Good guy, this family is really on the same page.

this is okay too?
