Hong Kong: Rise of the Kings.

Chapter 177 0177 [The Legendary "Tsar"]

"Inspector Du, is that right? I guess you didn't come here just to wish me New Year's greetings? If you have anything to say, let's talk about it first!"

Boss Huo asked his servant to serve tea to Du Yongxiao, straight to the point.

Du Yongxiao knew that it was useless to play tricks with the person in front of him, he might as well be straightforward.

"Huo Lao Mingcha, I do have something to come here today."

Young Master Huo next to him interrupted: "If you have something to tell me first, how can you—"

"Shut up." Big Brother Huo scolded him.

Young Master Huo hurriedly shut his mouth tightly, and gave Du Yongxiao a sad look.

"The first thing, I really came to wish you New Year's greetings, Mr. Huo, the second thing—" Du Yongxiao paused, and sorted out his thoughts, "About the construction river sand issue——"

Brother Huo smiled: "Zhen Ting is doing real estate business with you. His construction company has not started construction for a long time. This time I strongly support it, so there is no problem with river sand!"

Du Yongxiao knows that Mr. Huo has the support of the mainland, holds the exclusive right to sell river sand in the mainland, and is known as the "tsar", so the sand and gravel problem is not a problem in his eyes.

But Du Yongxiao's ambition doesn't stop there.

"Mr. Huo, I haven't finished my sentence. There is no problem with the construction of Times Square. I am also very relieved about the supply of sand and gravel. I mean Kowloon—"

Brother Huo glanced at Du Yongxiao, "Don't tell me you have other ideas?"

"Yes, now I am in charge of Kowloon, and the Kowloon Wharf is a place where sand and gravel must pass. I want to cooperate with Mr. Huo to do sand and gravel business together."

"Hahaha!" Mr. Huo laughed, with contempt in his eyes, "You want to make gravel with me? Do you know that even Liu Fu would not dare to tell me that?"

"I know!" Du Yongxiao said, "In the past, Kowloon was a plate of loose sand, and even Lord Fu couldn't convince the crowd. When orders were issued, most of them were yin and yang. Kowloon Wharf is even more mixed with dragons and snakes. Even if you have [-]K escorts on the sand and gravel, But you have to pay tolls."

"But it's different now, old man, as long as you trust me, I can give you the pier! Hong Kong Island, the New Territories, I can't do it, but Kowloon is up to me." Du Yongxiao gradually revealed a bit of domineering.

Boss Huo stared at him, and didn't think seriously until Du Yongxiao finished speaking.

He holds the power of sand and gravel, but the operation of sand and gravel needs to pay a lot of "tolls".

These "tolls" are sometimes higher than the excavation and transportation costs of sand and gravel.

Now Du Yongxiao can hand over the Kowloon Wharf and let him use it for free, so at least he can save a lot of money.

"I'm curious, why are you, Inspector Hua, so keen on doing business?" Big Brother Huo asked.

"Working as an errand is to get food and fill your stomach; doing business is to learn how to be a human being--business, after all, is the way of the world."

Du Yongxiao's words were old-fashioned, but Mr. Huo nodded frequently when he heard them.

"You have great ambitions, but why are you only focusing on the sand and gravel business?"

"Because I am optimistic about real estate development." Du Yongxiao said, "In my opinion, the next 30 or even 40 years in Hong Kong will be the golden period of real estate, and real estate cannot do without sand and gravel."

Huo Da narrowed his eyes and stared at Du Yongxiao, "You really think so?"

"Yes!"

The living room was silent for a moment.

Huo Dashao sat the closest, feeling the powerful aura radiating from his father, making him breathless.

The old housekeeper, Uncle En, and the others were far away, but they also felt a little bit of pressure.

"Okay!" Big Brother Huo said, "If you want to do sand and gravel business with me, I promise you!"

Du Yongxiao said happily: "Thank you, Mr. Huo!"

"Thank you for a while! I always only look at the results, not the process. Can you fix the Kowloon Wharf and let the sand and gravel go ashore smoothly? Let's wait and see!"

"Of course! I will never let you down."

Du Yongxiao was slightly excited, he knew very well how profitable the sand and gravel business is, especially with the boom in real estate in Hong Kong in the future, the value of sand and gravel will surpass gold.

"Finally, I have an unfeeling request——"

"You speak."

"I heard that Mr. Huo, you are the chairman of the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce?"

"So what?"

"Can you give me a place, Franchise Chamber of Commerce?"

"Who wants to join? You?"

"No, my old bean!"

……

"My humble Du Dapao, please give me more advice in the future!"

"I'm in the laundry business, and everyone is from Chaozhou, Jia Jilang!"

"In the future, if you need soap, scented soap, and shampoo, just ask me! Du Shihua, I will give you a new life!"

At the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce New Year's Conference, Du Dapao wore brand-new clothes, frequently gave business cards to people, and advertised for his company.

Some of those Chamber of Commerce bigwigs took a look and said a few polite words.Some of them didn't even bother to look at them. Newcomers like Du Dapao were just younger brothers in their eyes, and they were still unknown younger brothers.

Seeing that the selection meeting for the new members of the chamber of commerce was about to begin, many bigwigs were seated one after another, and Du Dapao acted as the younger brother, running around, pouring tea and water for everyone.

Some big bosses from the chamber of commerce who came late were still confused and asked the people next to them: "Who is this guy? He is quite diligent in doing things."

"New recruits."

"Huh? I thought it was a waiter."

Li Jiacheng sat on the vice-chairman's seat, ran around Du Dapao sideways with his eyes, and said to the people next to him: "I will remember what I explained later."

"understand!"

That person is the person in charge of this selection meeting and the owner of Hong Kong Qicheng Company, named Fu Libin.

Soon, the meeting will begin.

Including Du Dapao, eight candidates were sitting in danger, waiting to join the association.

Fu Libin began to read his name.

Everyone is very excited, it is not easy to join Chaoshan merchants.

"Huang Tianjun."

"Ding Wanfu."

"Zhang Shaoqi."

"Wang Tianfeng."

Everyone who read their names was elated and stood up to greet everyone.

Du Dapao was also very excited. It was not until Fu Libin finished reading the list that he realized that he was missing.

"How could this be?" Du Dapao was a little confused.

Fu Libin gave him a cold look, "Originally, eight candidates joined the Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce today, but after our investigation, this Du Dapao, Boss Du—"

Du Dapao stood up, "What's wrong with me?"

Fu Libin said contemptuously: "Someone reported that you were suspected of fraud!"

boom!
Blow up the pot on the spot.

"Scam?"

"Is he a fraudster?"

"It's so dangerous, I was almost sneaked in by a scammer!"

Du Dapao's face was red, his mouth was tongue-tied and he didn't know how to explain it.

Boss Li proudly watched Du Dapao make a fool of himself.

The others also looked at Du Dapao with contempt.

At this time, a voice said: "Chaozhou Chamber of Commerce? That's all!"

Dressed in white, Du Yongxiao walked in, glanced contemptuously at the many Chaozhou bigwigs, and then walked up to his father, "Let's go, let's go home!"

Du Dapao: "But——"

"But what?" Du Yongxiao smiled, "You should report to the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce now, not stay here!"

Pause——
"Chairman Huo gave you a spot!"
