After making a wish, financial freedom

Chapter 560

Now that Li's mother is here, Li Zhuo will naturally stop thinking about fun things and stay with her the whole time.

After crossing the port, Li Zhuo was worried that it would be inconvenient for her, so he did not go to Ruan Hong's house with everyone.

Her family has a large flat in Sham Shui Po in West Kowloon. The area is quite large, with more than 300 square meters. It is considered a very large mansion in Hong Kong.

Li Zhuo took Li Ma and Ye Wei to stay at the Peninsula Hotel in Central, Hong Kong Island, which is closest to the bustling area.

He asked for three sea-view suites, all with an area of ​​108 square meters. The price is about 1.5 yuan a night. He can see the beautiful sea view of Victoria Harbor from the room.

After checking in, in order to accompany Li's mother, Li Zhuo rented the hotel's helicopter service.

There is a helipad on the top floor of the hotel. From here, you can take a helicopter trip to Hong Kong Island and overlook the entire Hong Kong Island from a high altitude.

Li Ma has always felt that Hong Kong is a very prosperous place. When she got on the helicopter and flew around the island, the city scenery she saw did not seem so amazing:

"The scenery is not bad. There are seas and mountains. The undeveloped areas are densely forested. The developed areas have taller buildings. In fact, they are not even more beautiful than the big cities in the mainland."

After hearing this, Ye Wei said:
"Godmother, Hong Kong used to be very powerful. The economy took off in the 80s, but it has stagnated since 2000. It's not going to work anymore anymore. Urban construction has basically stopped."

When the plane passed through the area of ​​villas and small bungalows, Li Zhuo pointed to the buildings below and said:

"These are wealthy areas, where rich people in Hong Kong live. Houses in other places may average 50 square meters, but here they can reach [-] million square meters, or even more."

Li Ma saw the Jianzui part of the island extending into the sea below, covering an area of ​​about four to five square kilometers, but she could only see five scattered villas in her field of vision.

The largest villa among them is a palace-like building with a construction area of ​​more than three to four thousand square meters. It is unknown whether it belongs to a wealthy Hong Kong family.

Li Ma was surprised and said:
"How much does it cost to buy such a large area?"

Ye Wei said:

"It should be very expensive, but the richest people in Hong Kong generally don't live here. They like to live in places like Repulse Bay, the top of Victoria Peak or Mid-Levels. Many of the houses there have an average price of over [-]. Ten thousand Hong Kong dollars is equal to one."

Hong Kong is a world where rich people live well, but there is an astonishing gap between rich and poor.

According to statistics, there are about 1 people in Hong Kong with assets exceeding RMB 1 million. They live in luxury houses and enjoy the best life and services.

People at the bottom cannot afford to buy a house, so a family often rents a cage house or subdivided house of about ten square meters. The monthly rent for such a small house costs seven to eight thousand a month. For such a population, The proportion in Hong Kong is over 23%.

As for government public housing, I'm sorry, I have to queue first. The number of public housing is pitiful and the queue time is often very long.

Even if ordinary citizens have money, they often cannot afford big houses.

Ordinary houses in Hong Kong are generally two-bedrooms with 27 square meters, and three-bedrooms with 36 square meters. With such a large area, it is very crowded for a family to live in. The starting price of such a house is at least 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

Therefore, in Hong Kong, it can be said that big capital controls all resources and eats up most of the profits. The people at the bottom are living a very hard life.

At first, Li Ma's experience was not obvious. After all, looking down from the air, one could only see tall and dense buildings, but not its actual divisions.

But when they were shopping on Hong Kong Island together, they happened to pass by a building community where people at the bottom lived. There were so many small rooms and windows that they couldn't see the end when they looked up. It seemed like it would trigger an attack of trypophobia.

Mother Li also had some feelings after reading it.

She told Li Zhuo:

"Sure enough, no matter where you are, the life of the poor is the most difficult. I understand why Hong Kong people like to go shopping. Living in a place like this, I wouldn't want to stay at home in our house. It would be too frustrating."

At the Peninsula Hotel, what Li Ma saw was another world.

Just on the side of the restaurant on the first floor of the hotel, there are Patek Philippe, Chanel and other famous watches and handbags for sale. Many wealthy people bought them when they saw the styles they liked.

The Peninsula Hotel's afternoon tea is also very famous. It is a place where old money and celebrities like to check in. Hong Kong film and television works have detailed the afternoon tea here, and the starting price is more than 1000 yuan.

They went to have afternoon tea and check in. The place was almost full, and many of them were local wealthy people.

His afternoon tea snacks were actually a bit sweet. After eating them, Li Ma was worried about gaining weight, so she went to the luxury store on the first floor accompanied by Ye Wei.Li Zhuo, on the other hand, had no interest in visiting luxury stores, so he sat in the lobby and waited for them.

Not long after, Li's mother pulled Ye Wei back. Li's mother looked a little unhappy and said to Li Zhuo:

"I just met a 60-year-old man in the store shopping with a young girl in her 20s. I really can't stand it. That's all. He keeps staring at my goddaughter. I hate it to death. ”

Li Zhuo stood up, looked over there through the glass wall, and then said:
"There are bad people everywhere. Stay away from such people. Do you want to buy a Chanel bag? I'm with you this time."

When they entered the Chanel store, Li Zhuo saw an old man who looked like a businessman, followed by a young girl who looked like a model.

This man looked over and saw that his eyes always glanced at Ye Wei, which was disgusting.

Li Zhuo stared at him twice but said nothing, and then called the cabinet sister over.

He sat on the round sofa in the middle of the store and asked:

"How many styles of bags do your store have? All are in stock."

"Um,...there are currently 126 types in the store, sir." Although the counter lady was a little confused as to why he asked this, she still answered honestly.

Li Zhuo raised his voice and said:

"Very good, I like Chanel bags. Let's do this. Choose one of each bag here. You can see that the size is suitable for this lady, and then come over and calculate the money with me."

"All? 126 styles?" The counter girl was confused for a moment, a little unbelievable, "Sir, are you saying that you want to buy one bag of all styles for this lady? Are you sure? Their prices may be comparable. high……."

It's the worry that he can't afford it.

"Of course, I'm pretty sure that if it's cheaper, I won't want to buy it." Li Zhuo said easily, gesturing for her to choose.

Chanel's bags are incomparable to Hermès. The price is several grades lower, with [-] to [-] yuan being the normal price.

Besides, even if it is Hermès, the result is not the same.

The counter sister immediately agreed happily, and then trotted to work on her high heels.

The old man over there obviously heard it, and then the counter girl serving him ran away immediately.

With such a big order in the store, who can afford to pay attention to individual customers who buy one or two small bags?

Not only that, the young girl next to him also stared at Li Zhuo, her eyes sparkling.

That's all. Soon the counter girl came over and bowed to apologize, clearly saying that the maxi classic handbag he just looked at was the only one in the store. Someone has already bought it. I'm really sorry, it's out of stock!If he wants to buy, he can come tomorrow and we will arrange the goods for him as soon as possible.

out of stock? !

The old man was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He obviously saw this bag first, and the little model next to him liked it quite a lot.

But he was more afraid of Li Zhuo, because obviously this young man was not a good man, he was just a businessman with a little money, and he couldn't afford to offend a really rich boss.

There are a total of 126 bags, the most expensive one is over 7 yuan, and the cheapest is a drum-shaped small cosmetic bag, which is only 1.1 yuan.

The counter sister calculated the general ledger and found that the total was more than 480 million Hong Kong dollars, which was almost more than 440 million yuan.

Li Zhuo paid the money casually.

The old man weighed his property and felt that it was better not to mess with such a person, so he took the young model and left in despair.

However, the young model was obviously not happy, and she shook off his hand as soon as she left the store. The two of them argued and gradually moved away.
