Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 437, white gloves
Yang Xiaole and the old man were chatting there.

After all, the old man had only been here a few days and didn't know much about the situation here.

What he can talk about is what he has seen and heard here these days, and some of Cao Zhongxuan's situation here.

As the economy of the United States weakens, the global economic situation is not very good.

In his memory, it should take another two or three years for it to get better!
Singapore and Hong Kong Island also began to steadily improve from that time to rapid development, until they became the Four Asian Tigers in the 90s.

But overall, the past two years have been much better than last year. Although the situation is depressed, it is still relatively stable.

Suo Ye looked at the youngest apprentice in front of him and asked, "When will you go back?"

Yang Xiaole sat there, knowing that Suo Ye was talking about returning to the mainland.

Then he said with a smile: "It's not confirmed yet. I'm going to meet my second brother and the others today and leave in the afternoon. I've bought the tickets. I don't know how long I'll stay on Hong Kong Island! Let's see."

As long as there was nothing going on in his hometown, he didn't really want to go there for the time being.

The past six months have been a bit depressing.

The old man nodded when he heard this and sighed: "When can I go back!"

Yang Xiaole didn't answer this!

It will take more than ten years!

He changed the topic and asked: "Um... are you drinking the potion I gave you?"

"Well, here you are! Didn't you say one or two drops every day? I drink it every day!"

Yang Xiaole snorted lightly when he heard this.

"Okay! After you finish drinking, I'll have Hong Kong Island send it to you again!"

Then he checked the time: "Master, will the second brother and the others come back at noon? If not, I will go back by myself in the afternoon."

He came to see the old man.

If the other person is not there, forget it.

"You should be back at noon! Let's go, go back!"

After the old man finished speaking, he stood up.

Yang Xiaole naturally followed, and as for the money, the old man naturally took it.

Didn't care about this.

After the two came out, they walked towards home.

When we arrived at the place, it was very lively inside.

"Dad! Xiaole is here!"

The door opened, and Cao Zhongxuan opened it. When he saw the two people, he naturally greeted them with a smile.

"Second brother and second sister-in-law!"

Yang Xiaole showed a professional smile and said hello.

Don't reach out to hit the smiling man, he is Suo Ye's son after all.

In terms of relationship, I haven't kissed each other yet.

He still recognized this clearly.

Cao Zhongxuan said with a smile. "Come in, come in quickly. Weiwei just called me and said you were here. There happened to be nothing going on at the company, so I came back with your second sister-in-law."

After saying that, he urged: "Come in quickly."

Yang Xiaole nodded with a smile and followed in.

After entering, a young man stood up. He was in his early twenties and looked somewhat like Cao Zhongxuan between his eyebrows.

It should be his eldest son.

I didn't come last time because I had to take care of the company.

Next to her was a girl in her twenties, with a slightly bulging belly.

"It's dawn, Xiaoqing, this is your Uncle Xiaole! Call someone quickly."

Cao Zhongxuan explained to the young man.

Cao Tianliang took out a cigarette with a smile and said, "Uncle Xiao Le, right? I always listen to my grandpa nagging you, so today we can meet you."

"Uncle Xiao Le!"

The girl next to her also shouted with a smile, and then sat there without speaking.

Yang Xiaole smiled when he saw this: "Thank you, I don't smoke."

After all, the two of them are in business, and they are both people in the scene, so they will not let their guard down at this time.

Look at the unhappy expressions of Cao Weiwei and her mother.

I had already guessed that after they left, they probably called to complain.

Right.

As an outsider, how can I control others?

After everyone sat down, Cao Zhongxuan said with some shame: "Xiao Le, Weiwei called me. I know the situation. I think you misunderstood."

Then he said: "As you can see, the house is so big. I want my dad to live here in the future, so I am not planning to rent a house, but to buy a house. I have been looking at houses these days."

After saying that, he looked at the old man: "Dad, the two apartments I showed you before are a bit small, but they have full balconies and bathrooms. They are in our community and we are close to each other. I am going to book one. ”

The old man also nodded lightly.

Yang Xiaole felt better after seeing this.

At least attitude is an issue.

Buying a house instead of renting it shows that you really want the old man to live here.

Then he smiled and said: "Second brother, this is a matter between you and the old man. As long as the old man agrees."

Cao Tianming, who was next to him, smiled and said, "Uncle Xiao Le, you probably haven't eaten since you've been on the plane for so long. Let's go to Tianhai Restaurant and let us uncle and nephew have a drink."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded: "Just eat whatever you want. Master and I will have a drink."

In fact, the reason why he was angry was still about money.

When the old man came over, although he didn't bring a lot of money, he still had several thousand US dollars, which totaled more than 10,000 Singapore dollars.

This is just pocket money for the old man.

Moreover, housing prices in Singapore have not been very expensive for more than ten years.

Just now he saw houses listed for sale on the road.

A 95-square-meter house costs only more than yuan. The money he gave is enough to buy square meters.

He actually let the old man sleep on the balcony.

I didn’t find a house, why don’t I sleep in a hotel?
The reason why the two people were so polite was probably that the money the old man brought was used by the two people to fill up the company.

This is an old man's business.

If he does this again next time, he won't give it.

That's what he said, but he's not bad at this point. If he really wants to see it, can he not give it to him?

Seeing this, Cao Zhongxuan smiled and said: "Okay, let's go. By the way, don't leave for a few days. You can play here for a few days. Don't leave in a hurry."

Yang Xiaole shook his head: "No, there are still things at home, I have to go back as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Cao Zhongxuan did not force himself.

"Okay, next time, I'll have a good time here for a few days when I come next time."

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded.

Then the group went to the hotel for dinner.

At the dinner table, Yang Xiaole was holding a wine glass, and several people drank there for a long time while changing glasses, making everyone drunk.

The appearance was passable.

Yang Xiaole then said goodbye to Mr. Suo and left here.

Get on the plane to Hong Kong Island.

After landing, it was already dusk.

Instead of rushing to Hong Kong Island, I drove across the river to Shekou, found the post office and made a call there.

After confirming that there was no problem there, we turned back to Hong Kong Island.

By the time he returned to Kowloon, it was already around eight o'clock in the evening.

This trip was already very fast for him, and it took him four days to get everything back.

After coming back, he naturally called Huang Qiujing as soon as possible.

When Huang Qiujing received the call, she went straight to the Peninsula Hotel.

As soon as they met, they started complaining: "Boss! The company really has no money. It's bottomed out, and you still have to take over the land. How can there be money!"

Yang Xiaole stretched his muscles and said with a smile: "Okay, the money matter has been taken care of. I will send it to you when I have time."

"Are you rich?"

Huang Qiujing's eyes lit up. "Um!"

Yang Xiaole nodded, thought for a moment and asked, "By the way, let me ask you something. Didn't your dad open a jewelry store before? Are you familiar with this?"

Then he added: "I'm talking about the business process, purchase channels and so on. I'm not talking about your interest in gold."

Huang Qiujing nodded: "It's familiar! There are several ways to get gold in Hong Kong Island. It is mainly imported through banks or precious metal companies. However, Chow Tai Fook in Hong Kong Island bought gold mines from South Africa, and the gold is refined directly from there. Ship it over."

Then she looked at him with a troubled expression: "Boss, you don't want to get involved in the jewelry industry again, do you?"

After she followed this boss, she was afraid that he would ask about new industries.

If you ask, you might do it.

This time I asked about gold, maybe I want to work in this field.

Yang Xiaole thought about it and nodded: "Well, I have this idea, I will think about it again."

According to the current gold price, it is considered good if the mainland can absorb one or two hundred tons.

After all, the current foreign exchange reserves are there.

It’s not much if it’s half buy and half free.

Gold still needs to be circulated.

It is necessary to open a gold shop!
Will opening a gold shop necessarily consume a lot of gold?

Not necessarily.

Because gold stores still need to purchase gold, in general, they will be in a state where reserves are gradually increasing and the scale is getting bigger and bigger.

Just like Chow Tai Fook.

In the beginning, there were only two or three small stores. Later, it became larger and larger with more and more branches.

Making more and more money.

Is he short of gold?

on the contrary!

more and more!

It's a dead thing if you put it in your hand.

And gold is not invincible.

South Africa's gold output accounts for more than half of the world's gold ratio, and it doesn't matter how developed it is!
This was what he thought after getting so much gold.

While these things have to be circulated, they also have to make money for him.

Also in order to be able to reasonably take out gold in the future.

When Huang Qiujing heard this, she scratched her head!
After struggling for a while, he still said: "Well... boss, there is something I want to say!"

"Oh! What's wrong?"

Yang Xiaole looked at her curiously.

Did this guy betray himself?

It shouldn’t be!

What is there to say?

Knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing.

Huang Qiujing has experienced a lot of things like him, but still has the guts to betray her?
Looking at his puzzled expression, Huang Qiujing thought for a moment and said, "I bought back the gold store that my dad lost in gambling."

After saying that, he quickly explained: "Boss, don't get me wrong. I didn't use the gold store for anything. I just found a broker to remove it. It has nothing to do with the company. It's just... I just feel that it is my father's property." , just wanted to take it back.”

Yang Xiaole suddenly realized.

This is about remembering the past.

He did not doubt that Huang Qiujing had this strength.

That gold shop only has assets of several hundred thousand.

Over the years, the shares and dividends I have given to Huang Qiujing amount to at least two to three million.

This is a salary that most agents in Hong Kong do not have.

After thinking about it for a while, he said: "I got some money this time. After it is cashed out in a few days, I will have a lot to invest."

Just relying on a few industries will not work.

Cast a wide net.

Looking at Huang Qiujing, who looked aggrieved, he smiled and said: "We are already forming a group company now! Let's delegate power! Just do a good job of supervision!"

If a company wants to be big, how can it be done well by just one or two people?

Then regardless of the other party's expression, he continued: "Let me make your gold store bigger. It will be included in the management of the group, I will invest, and you will make it bigger for me! At least in the cities of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, slowly spread it out to me. You occupy 5% of the shares.”

Huang Qiujing looked at him and blinked.

No entanglement in shares.

She knew that as long as the boss said he wanted to make the industry bigger, it would basically become bigger in the future.

The profits that a gold shop worth hundreds of thousands will gain in the future are absolutely immeasurable.

"Boss, do you really want to merge?"

"Well, you can draw up a contract when the time comes. By the way, don't rush into it yet. I'll give you an idea."

Yang Xiaole explained.

Then he told the general story.

Chow Tai Fook has always been a long-established gold and jewelry store on Hong Kong Island. Now its business is also developing into Southeast Asia, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan.

But what equated Chow Tai Fook with gold quality was an incident in the 1970s.

They launched 999.9 gold.

This is the reason why they have reached the top and have always occupied a high-end position.

In this life, he borrowed it first.

Of course, he also gave an example and borrowed a method from later generations in the mainland.

That is: as long as it is gold from our store, you can replace it with your favorite jewelry in the same amount, as long as you pay a little crafting fee.

There is no such business in Hong Kong Island now.

What does this mean?
Represents value preservation!
Huang Qiujing blinked her eyes when she heard the words, her mind was a little confused, but she also understood what Yang Xiaole said.

If you follow what Yang Xiaole said.

That is equivalent to defining the standard of the gold industry.

This is a huge deal in any industry, it’s not one thing.

She really wanted to dig out the other person's brain and see how his brain grew.

Thinking of this, she nodded, and then asked tangledly: "Um...boss, the real estate market has fallen like this, and there is no sign of recovery, so you still want to spend money!"

Now it's a pile of half-sold real estate.

My own boss even got into it.

“There is no shop like this after passing this village.”

When real estate is booming, who doesn’t know how to make money?

Enter when you are about to be depressed!

Don’t those rich people understand?
Understand!
It’s just that these people don’t know how long this real estate downturn will last!
Also, no money!
Those big guys who are engaged in real estate are now struggling to protect themselves, so how can they have the energy to do it.

At this time, those who have entered the industry are those who have not been involved in real estate much before.

Just like Lao Li Tou.

Of course, those old British-owned companies have bank endorsements, so don’t be afraid!
The basic market can be stable.

Seeing what he said, Huang Qiujing knew that she couldn't stop him.

She just does what she is supposed to do, and the rest is execution.

Then he started talking about the company's situation, while Yang Xiaole listened quietly.

Of course, he just took a general view.

The ribbon-cutting ceremony for the Hung Hom Tunnel was held three days later and I asked him if he wanted to go.

Yang Xiaole thought for a moment and shook his head: "Go by yourself, don't forget, you represent the company."

Since you are going to be a hands-off shopkeeper, be thorough.

Just help at critical moments.

Just like Soros, a powerful figure is actually the white glove of the Rothschild family.

The old man can do it.

Huang Qiujing can do the same.
