Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 366: Are you thinking too much?

Yang Xiaole drove to He Wentian's villa area and told him the building number. The other party looked at the license plate and respectfully let him in.

Obviously Huang Qiujing had already said hello before.

We drove along the mountain road towards the top of the mountain and stopped in the yard of a Western-style house.

Huang Qiujing's car was already parked there.

And she was already waiting at the door.

"boss."

Seeing him get out of the car, he shouted respectfully.

Yang Xiaole nodded and smiled: "You don't have to be so polite in the future!!"

Walk straight inside.

After entering, the room was very warm and was filled with the most high-end Western-style furniture.

But not now.

There is also a set of porcelain cups and glass cups.

Of course, quality issues are also an important part.

I saw Huang Qiujing wash her hands and start doing it.

"Is the air conditioner on?"

Yang Xiaole naturally followed.

It’s just that there aren’t as many styles as later generations.

Many people may have heard of the Dahongpao ancient tree in Wuyi Mountain.

Hearing this, Huang Qiujing stood up: "Let's go to the tea room."

These people can really decide a person's life or death with just one word.

Yang Xiaole smiled nonchalantly: "It's okay, I don't understand. I'll drink whatever you do."

Watching the other person start making tea.

"Well, it's a bit cold outside! I'll come over and turn on the air conditioner."

It is famous only through Hong Kong movies.

Of course, the reality is indeed awesome.

After hearing this, Huang Qiujing carefully sat next to him, her butt only dared to sit halfway up.

When we arrived, we found a relatively quaint room with mahogany furniture. There were some purple clay pots and purple clay pot cups on a coffee table.

Knowing that mainlanders might not be used to drinking coffee, she specially made some tea.

Now that I have come into contact with more and more high-level people, I feel more and more respectful towards Yang Xiaole.

She didn’t understand before!

I looked at the air conditioner curiously, it looked like a window.

Yang Xiaole saw this and smiled: "You can still do this!"

Huang Qiujing stood nearby and answered.

In my previous life, when I was young, I was mostly surrounded by various carbonated drinks.

Still need to wear thicker clothes.

Human aesthetics actually goes through reincarnation, from classical to Western style and back to classical again.

Yang Xiaole sat on the sofa in the living room and touched it. Seeing that it was clean, he asked with a smile.

It's just not as cold as in the mainland, and the wrapping is like rice dumplings.

As he spoke, he took the information on the coffee table and introduced him to a room.

Thinking of something, he asked: "Boss, what would you like to drink? Coffee or tea? The teas include Wuyishan Dahongpao, an old tea collected from six nearly 300-year-old trees in Wuyishan, and Biluochun, which was also awarded by the emperor during the Qianlong period. Picked from eighteen ancient trees.”

The charcoal fire path has been prepared long ago, and the water on it has begun to steam.

Yang Xiaole nodded lightly when he heard this. It is actually not too cold or warm here now. The highest temperature is about 20 degrees and the lowest temperature is only a few degrees.

People will find that what their ancestors liked is still good.

He didn't pay attention. He looked at Huang Qiujing who was still standing there and said with a smile: "What are you doing? Sit down! You were not like this before. Why are you so polite this time?"

Yang Xiaole sat there, looked around, and then sat there.

And he is not used to drinking black tea either.

Are the things of today necessarily worse than those of later generations?

Not necessarily.

The eighteen ancient trees in Biluochun are also hundreds of years old. Now they are also imperial tea, but few people know about them.

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows: "Oh, where did it come from? Let's take a dip in Biluochun."

Otherwise, not so many people will like mahogany furniture in the future.

Hearing this, Huang Qiujing smiled and said: "My dad used to like to drink tea. I saw him doing it. Later, I drank it a few times when I occasionally participated in negotiations and learned a little bit. Don't laugh at me."

When he is almost old enough to drink tea, he will come here.

Even if you understand a little bit, it’s all superficial.

Huang Qiujing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this, and while doing it, she said: "Boss, what do you want to hear first? Is it from our side or Mr. Chen's side?"

"That's fine, let's talk about our side first!"

"okay!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Qiujing began to talk about the general situation of the company.

assets in the name of the company.

There are 431 shops with a total price of more than million.

Yang Xiaole was a little surprised at first that he could be ranked among the top 50 Chinese with so much money.

After all, there are many wealthy people and officials coming here.

Later, it’s not surprising when I think about the current prices of gold and silver.

A large yellow croaker costs about 4,000 yuan in Hong Kong dollars.

If it costs 100 yuan, it would be close to kilograms (sixteen taels).

Ten thousand taels of gold is only four million.

In the entire Forty-Nine City, how many people can have ten thousand taels of gold?

When running away in a hurry, being able to carry a hundred gold bars is already considered powerful.

Gold and silver controls were not only implemented after the founding of the People's Republic of China. During the Republic of China, gold and silver controls were actually implemented in order to allow banknotes to circulate.

But the effect is not that good.

But after all, there is this regulation, and gold has always been a large-scale transaction, which is basically rare among the people, so gold is not actually circulating that much.

Even large households and officials have limited gold reserves.

The prices of antique calligraphy and paintings are not high here.

After listening for a while, the tea was almost ready. Huang Qiujing placed a small cup of brewed water in front of him.

Then he said: "Lixin Real Estate wants to cooperate more deeply with our intermediary company, but considering that they are now being targeted by the British, I dare not agree."

"Oh, what do you mean?"

Yang Xiaole felt strange.

The name of Lixin Real Estate is quite familiar.

Then he took a sip of tea.

The temperature is just right warm, but not hot to the mouth.

I don’t know if it’s a psychological effect, or if the temperature is just right, and he also needs to drink water.

It feels quite delicious.

Then he smiled and said, "Have another drink, and you can continue."

Huang Qiujing poured him a glass of water, and then said: "Oh, Lixin Real Estate is the real estate industry of the Huo family, the richest Chinese in Hong Kong. They are very interested in our intermediary model, but since 53, they have been... "

Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment by these words.

Mr. Huo?

Then it dawned on me.

It seems like after the end of the Yalu River battlefield. The other party has indeed been targeted.

Because he secretly collected a lot of emergency supplies and sent them there at low prices. Even after liberation, the embargo against Laos and the United States did not stop.

Mr. Huo still secretly transported the supplies needed from the mainland.

So after 53, we started to be targeted.

The Huo family's property was also divided, creating the current four major families.

These four major families are not the ones from later generations. Nowadays, these few families can be considered one of the emerging families, and they are not yet considered big families.

But Mr. Huo was still young when he saw this.

He should be only thirty or forty years old.

After hearing what Huang Qiujing said, Yang Xiaole took a sip of the second cup. The cup was only a little big.

It's done in one bite.

After taking a sip, he asked: "What is the purpose of our agency?"

Huang Qiujing thought for a moment and said, "House!"

"That's right! Our foundation is housing. There is no second real estate agency on Hong Kong Island now. It is not possible in the future. Now is the time to compete for land, especially the houses of big companies. It is even more important to get them. ………”

Do intermediaries make money?

He once just felt that this thing was just to help him get some cash so that he could pay off the loan.

Unexpectedly, the business was better than he imagined.

However, it is understandable that the major real estate properties in Hong Kong Island now operate independently and have their own sales departments to handle leasing and selling business.

Moreover, these sales offices have to cooperate with law firms.

As for publicity, it means putting up posters or listing it in newspapers, but it is impossible to publish it in newspapers every day.

The people who trade are basically nearby.

But this intermediary model breaks these restrictions. After all, in prosperous areas, there will be such an intermediary just a short distance away, which is also an advertisement.

What’s more, he launched a car-pick-up-and-delivery model.

Now the average salary in Hong Kong Island is only about 100, and in prosperous areas it is higher. Cars only cost 7,000 to 8,000, and good ones only cost more than 10,000. (Top cars don’t count.)

A few buses only cost tens of thousands of yuan, and the driver can barely survive on three to four hundred yuan a month.

A car is picked up and delivered at a scheduled location, and a month's gas expenses don't cost much.

The intermediary also has a unified contract with the law firm, so there is no need to go to the law firm.

This brings a lot of convenience to people.

Moreover, the way to buy a house here in the past was that someone posted a red paper with good news near the community, indicating the general situation. At that time, the writing was usually not very clear.

Customers may not necessarily be satisfied after visiting our home.

But it's different with an agency. There are all kinds of properties for you to choose from, which is much more convenient.

If you just look at the 2-3% agency fee, it is indeed not a lot, but there are more and more properties available, and some agencies are very busy.

Even now it is no worse than ordinary real estate companies.

There is no need to take out a loan to build a house, such a troublesome thing.

Huang Qiujing hesitated after hearing this: "In this case, will we be targeted?"

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "No matter, if you only do their business, it's still possible. Now you do everyone's business, what are you afraid of?"

Hearing this, Huang Qiujing nodded gently.

She had thought of this herself.

But she still didn't dare to make a decision easily regarding matters related to her constitution.

Then he agreed: "Okay, I understand, I will contact them after a while..."

Then he continued to talk about the situation of his two companies.

After listening for a while, Yang Xiaole frowned: "The management must pay attention. I don't understand this. You have to figure it out yourself... You must form your own management system..."

I just copied the models of later generations.

It has just been going on for a year now, and the management is a bit chaotic and rough. After all, subsequent companies have developed step by step. Where can I get it right in one step like him?

It looks profitable on the surface, but there are many problems internally.

It's not something that can be solved in one go.

Huang Qiujing nodded lightly: "I know that, according to your requirements, both companies have hired professional and experienced people to manage them. By the way, the company's annual meeting will be held in a few days. You will see Don’t want to participate? Others are missing, so why don’t you meet the managers of these two companies?”

Yang Xiaole thought for a while, and finally shook his head: "Forget it, you can just do it yourself."

If you don't understand this stuff yourself, you just need to correct it based on the situation of later generations.

To put it bluntly, it is to grasp the general direction and act as a hands-off shopkeeper.

Fortunately, I worked as a popular science anchor in my previous life and learned a lot of miscellaneous things. In addition, I am in the future, so my perspective is naturally different.

I am not short of money, so I am preparing for the future.

Why do you make yourself so tired?

As for the shady things underneath, he didn't care. If the water was clear, there would be no fish, so there was no way to get it clean.

It's not a big deal to eat meat yourself and let others drink soup.

It's fine to drink some soup, as long as you don't eat your own flesh.

Seeing that the other party poured another glass of water, he picked it up and took a sip, and then said, "Give me a bigger cup. It's uncomfortable to drink from this."

Hearing this, Huang Qiujing couldn't help but smile.

I found a large, clean cup nearby and poured some water.

Yang Xiaole took a big sip, put down the cup and said with a smile: "I'm still used to drinking like this!"

Huang Qiujing finished talking about the situation of the two companies.

The rest is to improve management and talent reserves in accordance with Yang Xiaole's requirements, and when the time is right, start large-scale expansion.

Then he said: "There is something going on at Junhao Garment Factory and Xinghao Garment Factory!"

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows.

Not to mention, he forgot that he still had shares in a company!

"what happened?"

"Suho and the others are planning to invest more! They will use it to expand the production of Xinghao Garment Factory."

"Oh, additional investment? How much?"

Yang Xiaole was curious. When he wrote the letter before, he already knew that Su Hao was still capable and estimated that he had earned around half a million yuan this year.

This is already a lot of money.

You must know that the plastic flower king Li Chaoren, known as Hong Kong Island's dark horse, only earns several million Hong Kong dollars a year with his plastic flower factory that sells all over the world.

It was this factory that supported his hegemony.

After all, this garment factory and clothing factory are just intensive industries, and he managed them like this in two years.

It can be considered a dark horse.

"one million!"

"So much? Where did he get the money?"

This year's profit was divided into 70% of the profit.

"I don't know. It seems that I borrowed it! What should we do? If we don't make additional investment, then according to the contract, we can only dilute the shares."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought about it for a while.

According to the contract at the time, he took 70% of the shares. As long as the other party did not violate several aspects of the contract, they would not participate in the management.

There are just a few reviews a year.

If the other party invests more, he must increase it in the same proportion, otherwise it will only dilute his own shares.

After thinking for a while, he said: "There is no need to chase so much. Just let 5% of the shares go out this time and keep 65% in your hands."

What he wants is to make money.

It's not like killing Su Hao.

Give the other person some hope and see what he wants to do next time.

Of course, the bigger the better.

In fact, Su Hao is quite good, and it will not hurt him to make him bigger.

Huang Qiujing nodded slightly: "Okay, I understand."

"Tell me about their recent activities!"

After hearing this, Huang Qiujing began to speak out.

With the drawing concepts he gave, the other party's ready-to-wear clothing has slowly formed its own brand and begun to emerge as a new force on Hong Kong Island.

However, Hong Kong Island's current pillar industry is garment manufacturing, so it is very difficult to break out of the encirclement.

However, I still participated in some local fashion exhibitions on Hong Kong Island.

After listening for a while, he thought of something and asked: "Last time, I wrote to you and asked you to hand over the jeans plan. Why is there no movement? I see that there is nothing to wear on the street!"

If there is any piece of clothing that is timeless and versatile, it’s a piece of clothing.

Then just jeans.

Does a pair of jeans matter?

It's actually really important.

Although jeans may have been around for a hundred years, these trousers made of denim are actually wear-resistant overalls worn while working.

Cargo pants also mean cheap.

Moreover, the current jeans are very simple, with only a few shades of color, and not too many styles at all.

They are all straight.

I have never seen the slim-fitting, Korean-style, small-footed, small-straight-leg, hakama trousers, harem, casual, business, one-piece, retro, trumpet and other types in later generations.

It is no exaggeration to say that one pair of pants can eat three generations.

Many large clothing and shoe factories have a wide variety of products, but only a few popular items.

Why not use such a good resource?

He remembered that jeans became popular all over the world in the past two years.

That's because of the popular Hollywood movies and the popularity of rock music, which made jeans worth hundreds of times, and many companies began to research them.

Huang Qiujing was also confused: "Boss, we have transferred your information to Su Hao. But what Mr. Su means is that this dress is not worth the cost."

This is also the only style rejected by Su Ho. The previous styles almost amazed Su Ho.

Yang Xiaole saw this and smiled and said: "Don't worry about it, just tell him, follow my research above, otherwise, we will invest more, mother, I won't even try. It doesn't matter, just tell him, if he doesn't agree, then We will also invest more to dilute his shares.”

After saying that, what came to mind: "By the way, don't forget about the patent."

After jeans were developed in later generations, there were almost no patents to speak of, because as long as they were not exported, there was no need for a patent.

But it's different abroad. Jeans are patented.

If you want to produce it, you have to hand in a patent.

And it hasn’t become popular yet, but it is already becoming popular. When their factory design is launched, it should start to become popular.

There is no need to wait for patent fees to be high before buying one.

Now it's only tens of thousands of dollars.

Huang Qiujing was confused for a while, but still agreed.

Yang Xiaole looked at the other party, thought of something and asked, "By the way, what's going on with Li Chaoren's situation that I asked you to investigate?"

Although Li Chaoren brought out the essence of a businessman to the fullest.

Smashing the pot while eating.

But I have to say that this guy is really good. Whether it is real estate or finance, he has made the right choices at these major turning points in history.

There are some things that you just can't accept.

Huang Qiujing thought for a while and said: "Since the information I gave you last time, there haven't been many other changes. However, they bought another piece of land and are preparing to build a second industrial building in Chai Wan."

Yang Xiaole nodded slightly.

In 58, he built a 12-story industrial building for rent.

Lao Li is just getting started!

No matter how good you are, you won't be worse than him, right?

Then he asked about Chen Zixing.

That is the matter of the watch factory.

The factory is actually quite good. After two years of construction, the annual profit has reached one million levels, and he also shared more than 400,000 yuan.

But I didn’t get a share, so I continued to invest.

According to Chen Zixing’s plan, he will start paying dividends next year and start preparing to develop his piece of land in Central, Hong Kong Island.

Yang Xiaole thought about it, looking at the information given by Huang Qiujing, now all major real estate developers in Hong Kong are British-owned.

But in the past few years, all the big guys from later generations have begun to leave one after another.

In other words, the scale is getting bigger and bigger.

Why don't you set up a real estate company for fun?

There’s no reason to be left behind!

As for other high-end things, he really can't play them, and no one else is around.

Even in real estate, one doesn’t get involved casually.

This is not a one- or two-story building, as long as it doesn't fall down if it's crooked.

It’s a pity that there are no people who understand this industry!

At this time, he was thinking, but his eyes were looking in Huang Qiujing's direction.

Huang Qiujing felt panicked when she saw his gaze.

Why is he just staring at me without saying anything?

Is it...

What should I do?

Then I thought of something and became determined.

No...

Absolutely not! !

Yang Xiaole looked at the other person's eyes and came to his senses, thinking that something was wrong with her.

I thought that after I made a phone call, the other party came directly.

Never thought about her own private life.

Then he said: "Well...it's getting late...if you have something urgent, go back first."

It just so happened that he had to go to a few other shops for a walk.

People in those societies need to know that there is someone they cannot afford to offend.

When Huang Qiujing heard the previous words, she felt nervous and was about to find an excuse to leave.

But after hearing what was said behind her, her face turned red.

Own……

Are you overthinking it?

PS: There is no charge for the following:

Many people don't like to watch the plot of Hong Kong Island, and they won't write too much about it. After all, Hong Kong Island was launched before, so it would be impossible not to write about it.

Although I know the writing is a bit exaggerated, thinking about such a big thing is already depressing in the mainland. If I still can't build it casually here, I feel aggrieved.

It is equivalent to a place for the protagonist to vent his emotions.

Enough nonsense.

Today is New Year's Eve. I would like to wish all book friends good luck and good health in the Year of the Dragon (this is very important.)

Make a fortune next year.

By the way, I asked for a day off at the beginning of the month, but my book friend told me that I didn’t take it. I’ll take a day off tomorrow on New Year’s Eve.

Sorry.
