Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 183

Chu Xiangqian had no doubts about the offer of [-] yuan, and buying a house with a store had more room for appreciation than a simple house.

I silently calculated in my heart, and then I was shocked again.

At this time, 1 small yellow croaker is equal to 208 Hong Kong dollars, and 144 is [-] small yellow croakers.

This was definitely a sky-high price in the Republic of China.

It can be seen how strong the actual value of the dollar directly linked to gold is at this time.

Fortunately, after thinking about it, it is calculated purely by the price of gold, which is equivalent to more than 500 million when gold is 200 grams a few decades later.

But at that time, the land of this pharmacy alone will cost [-] to [-] million yuan.

Chu Xiangqian nodded immediately, "Okay, I can still get the money out."

Let alone Gong Er, Lao Jiang and Yi Yitian, even Gong Changqing and Chen Shenglan were surprised.

The old lady hurriedly asked, "Qianqian, where did you get so much money?"

The old man Gong asked, "You don't mean to sell some of the antiques I collected for you? That's not okay. I would rather live in a sister's house, or live in a shack than let you sell the antiques handed down by my ancestors. Come down baby."

"Master, don't make wild guesses, okay?" Chu Xiangqian wanted to say that he had hunted and exchanged a lot of small yellow croakers, but after another thought, he had been in the city for less than two months.

Even if one wild boar is exchanged for one gold bar, it is impossible to exchange for 144 small yellow croakers in two months.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Do you remember what I told you, Mrs. Jiang, and Mrs. Jiang last time?"

Chu Xiangqian deliberately did not mention the caves and treasures, just to mislead Mrs. Fu.

Gong Changqing, Chen Shenglan, and Lao Jiang were taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that Chu Xiangqian killed the seven islanders.

In other words, when this kid kills some islanders, he may get a lot of good things from them or from his family.

Thinking about it carefully, Chu Xiangqian got a lot of porcelain and antiques from these islanders, and those people must have hidden hard currency such as gold bars and silver dollars.

Only then did Gong Changqing and the old lady feel relieved.

Gong Er and Yi Yitian couldn't help looking at Old Jiang.

Lao Jiang thought for a while, and secretly said that he couldn't say anything about it, not even the girl, so as not to be sorry for Xiangqian's trust.

Shaking their heads silently, Gong Er and Yi Yitian immediately stopped asking.

The next morning, after Chu Xiangqian woke up, he went into Xinshou Village to wipe out all the refreshed wild monsters, and then he got up and went to the training room on the first floor to practice boxing.

When he was sweating slightly, Lao Jiang greeted him with a smile, "Xiao Chu, I bought a famous breakfast on Hong Kong Island, come over and have some."

Chu Xiangqian hurriedly thanked him, and when he entered the restaurant, he saw that Gong Er, Gong Changqing and the old lady were already waiting for him.

After a few words of apology, as soon as he sat down, the old lady served him a bowl of porridge, shrimp dumplings and siu mai.

Looking at it, Gong Changqing felt faintly jealous.

Chu Xiangqian waited for Gong Er to move his chopsticks, then picked up the chopsticks, picked up a shrimp dumpling for the old lady, and then started eating.

Now, while Gong Er was eating, he rolled his eyes at Chu Xiangqian and Chen Shenglan.

Secret Dao's sister-in-law was rich and honored in the first half of her life, and suffered hardships in middle age, and she is considered a blessed person when she meets Xiangqian's apprentice in her later years.

Thinking about it this way, I couldn't help but feel a little sad.

The old lady surreptitiously bumped Chu Xiangqian with her arm, and pouted at Gong Er.

After Chu Xiangqian regained his senses, he hurriedly used the other end of his chopsticks to pick up a shrimp dumpling for Gong Er, "Master, you should eat more nutritious food. If you don't mind eating, why not start ordering some milk from tomorrow?" .

If taboo, then a cup of soy milk every day. "

After finishing speaking, he looked at Gong Changqing and Lao Jiang again, "Master, Uncle Jiang, and Mistress all have to drink it. This is to supplement protein. And we Chinese people have been accustomed to plant protein since ancient times. Drinking soy milk is actually more healthy than drinking milk. Easily absorbed."

The four old guys all laughed when they heard this.

Seeing Chu Xiangqian's gaze became more benevolent.

After breakfast, I wanted to help the old lady clean up, but even Gong Er refused to let him do it, so I could only go next door with Lao Jiang to ask about the house.

This dry goods store is indeed not small, but the mainland itself can't eat enough, and it is basically impossible to import all kinds of dry goods from the mainland.

However, if you want to go to Southeast Asia to buy goods without the nearest source of goods, the cost of shipping alone will increase a lot.

As for Hong Kong Island, there is meat, but there are very few dry goods in the mountains.

The owner of this family came up with the idea of ​​selling the shop and moving the whole family to San Francisco for development.

When he heard that Chu Xiangqian wanted to buy this small three-story building, the shopkeeper hurriedly invited him to sit with Lao Jiang, while he hurried upstairs.

Old Jiang said in a low voice, "The man just now is the eldest son of the owner of this shop. I have heard this boy say several times that many people who open restaurants in San Francisco in the United States make money.

I just told you that his family may have sold the house. "

Chu Xiangqian shook his head secretly, 3 Hong Kong dollars was 7500 U.S. dollars.

This is indeed a lot of money in this era, but after going to San Francisco, it’s okay if you buy a store yourself, and if you rent a store to do business.

Three or forty years from now, not even a new millennium.

Just in the 8s and 90s, the other party will find that the rent will become a gold-swallowing beast that swallows most of the benefits.

Then I found out again that I had struggled all my life, let alone buying this house on Hong Kong Island.

Not even a tenth of the price.

This is the same as the people who sold their courtyard houses and went abroad in the 80s.

If Chu Xiangqian bought Gong Er's house and the few rooms next to it, and built a building with more than ten floors, it would cost billions of Hong Kong dollars at least in the future.

Just for rent collection, there are casually [-] or [-] million a year.

The result of the negotiation was surprisingly smooth. Since Chu Xiangqian knew that the eldest son of the other party was eager to free Mi Lijian, of course he would bargain.

All the way from 3 to 2, the owner of the house, the old man in his 8s, refused to lower it any more.

Chu Xiangqian probably knew in his heart that the price was too much to squeeze out.

Finally, he said, "I won't give Hong Kong dollars anymore, why don't we make a deal with 13 gold bars of 10 taels?"

At this time, a gold bar of twelve taels is worth 2080 Hong Kong dollars, and 13 gold bars are 27040.

The father and son muttered to each other, and it was exactly as Chu Xiangqian expected. They just bargained for another half an hour, and then pretended to be in pain and agreed.

As for the dry goods in the store, in fact, the family has no other dry goods to sell except bacon.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry to sell the house.

This time it was more suitable for Chu Xiangqian.

After that, it is to invite middlemen and witnesses, and then go to the housing management department to transfer the title.

Chu Xiangqian naturally invited Yixiantian here, Gong Er was still a little worried, so he asked Lao Jiang to invite Ye Wen and a few people he knew to come over to be witnesses.

Chu Xiangqian didn't forget to hire a lawyer, but he hired someone from the Big Law Firm.

After three days of turmoil, the house finally became his.

Then it was to find someone to come over and fix it. As for the redecoration, Chu Xiangqian gave up the idea after thinking about it.

When the house is tidied up, they will treat guests at the nearby restaurant.

Some kung fu teachers, witnesses, neighbors, and Gong Er knew each other, and the masters who opened the hall to accept apprentices also invited them. Finally, after hearing what Yixiantian said, even the people from the Yau Ma Tei Police Station also sent invitations.

By the way, among the five invitations to the police station, 100 yuan was included in each invitation.

As for the dwarf mule on the road, both Yi Yitian and Lao Jiang said no.

Chu Xiangqian thought for a while, it seems that San Jiangshui, the apprentice of Yixian Tianshou, is the little leader of the gangsters.

At the beginning, this guy was still leading people and went to Yixiantian to collect fees, but he was punched several meters by Yixiantian.

If it were replaced by Chu Xiangqian's palm a few days ago, it would definitely break Sanjiangshui's bones.

But seeing that the palm is more powerful, but it can exert force, but it can't be retracted, it lacks a bit of ingenuity.

After Sanjiangshui was beaten, the fees were not charged, and he turned around and insisted on worshiping Yixiantian as his master.

Yi Yitian probably thought that San Jiangshui, like Gong Er, was a northerner, so he actually accepted him as an apprentice.

On the day of the treat, many neighbors from the neighborhood came. Seeing that Chu Xiangqian was tall and handsome, and also heard that he had inherited the inheritance of gossip and Xingyi at the same time, Gong Er's eyes couldn't help but change.

In the past, everyone felt that there was no one in the Gong family.

But I didn't expect that at the end of last year, Gong Er heard that he was going to be unable to hold on. The martial arts circle on Hong Kong Island was still very sorry.

Unexpectedly, a year later, not only her cousin came to visit her from the mainland, but also a nephew and nephew followed her.

At first, when everyone heard about it, they thought that this cousin, master and apprentice, was thinking about Shanggong Er's money.

Unexpectedly, on the second day after they came to the door, they spent 2 Hong Kong dollars to buy the house next to the house where Gong Er lived.

Now, no one will talk about eating out of the house anymore.

And a woman has her natal relatives to rely on, if outsiders want to bully her, they have to carefully weigh it.

And what everyone is most concerned about is the ultimate moves and unique skills in the hands of Gongjia 64 handed down by Gong Baosen.

Before the banquet started, someone came to the door as expected.

Chu Xiangqian was welcoming guests and chatting with a few apprentices of Yixiantian.

While chatting with Sanjiangshui about the situation in this area.

A middle-aged man dressed in a mandarin jacket and long robe stood up and said to Gong Er arching his hands.

"Master Gong, I don't know if your nephew is opening a shop with us to do business. Is it just for business, or is it also open for apprentices?"

Gong Er knew that someone was looking for trouble, and he sighed inwardly, but he couldn't directly be Chu Xiangqian's master.

But before she could speak, Chu jumped up and cursed San Jiangshui beside him, "Damn it, our junior brother is hosting a banquet here today.

You bastard can't choose when, but if you insist on making trouble here tonight, you are here on purpose to find fault. "

Before Sanjiangshui became a teacher, Yixiantian, this guy had more than a dozen juniors under his command.

Otherwise, it would not be his turn to take someone to the newly opened White Rose Barbershop in Yixiantian to collect fees.

After worshiping Yixiantian as his master, although Sanjiangshui has restrained a lot, his younger brothers still have to eat.

So Sanjiangshui didn't break away from the gang, even because after learning martial arts, he fought more fiercely and became more powerful.

Fortunately, Yixiantian still restrains him, making money is no problem, but messing around is not.

The younger brothers of Sanjiangshui saw that the boss had jumped out, so naturally they wouldn't admit it.

Rolling up their sleeves one by one, they started cursing as if they would start fighting if they couldn't reach an agreement.

Yi Yitian shouted, "Sit down, it's your turn to take the lead in this matter."

Chu Xiangqian wanted to say that he had no intention of opening a museum to accept disciples.

It's just that things have already gotten into trouble, saying this is tantamount to making people laugh.

Moreover, they have made it clear that they are causing trouble for them. If they don't stand up, let alone gain a foothold in the future, the gossip behind their backs will also stop them from doing business.

He got up and looked at Gong Changqing and Gong Er.

Gong Changqing nodded to Gong Er, "Sister, you decide this matter."

Only then did Gong Er ask Chu Xiangqian, "Chu Er, what are your plans?"

Chu Xiangqian got up and said, "There's no need to open a museum. I don't lack a business to support myself. If I want to take on apprentices, if I meet a suitable seedling, I have to pass on the skills passed down by the master."

It is no problem for ordinary people to hear this, but in the ears of those masters who specialize in opening a shop to accept apprentices, they are faintly mocking that they have to rely on selling handicrafts to make a living.

Not only did he offend more than a dozen masters, but even Ye Wen's expression became ugly.

There was only a smile on the corner of Yi Yitian's mouth, he, who opened a barber shop, not only confiscated his apprentice's filial piety, but also confiscated his apprentice's fee.

Instead, he brought his apprentices together to make money by relying on his hands and technology.

In a sense, Yixiantian is indeed more supported and loved by apprentices than those masters who only teach boxing for a living.

And don't look at him and Master Ye living in peace, but in fact because of Gong Er, he looks down on Master Ye a bit.

Seeing that Chu Xiangqian even scolded Master Ye, he felt very happy.

Just listen to the person who provoked the trouble, and then asked, "I don't know if Master Chu knows that we are here and want to establish the rules of the sect?"

Chu Xiangqian sneered, there is still a big difference between accepting apprentices and establishing a sect.

Having watched the movie, he knows the so-called rules, that is, he has to go to the ring and compete with other masters.

If it can be recognized by most people, it will naturally be qualified to open a hall to teach apprentices.

If you can't win any of them, then you definitely don't want to open a gym, and no one will go to him to learn martial arts.

Chu Xiangqian said with a smile, "Going on stage to fight, I've heard a lot about this kind of thing, but I've never seen it. The so-called do as the Romans do, since I've come to Hong Kong Island to settle down, I'm naturally willing to abide by the rules."

After finishing speaking, Chu Xiangqian looked at the middle-aged man who spoke and said, "Look at this, is this master trying to point out me, a foreigner?"

"My surname is Fan, and I don't dare to give advice, so let the big guys see the 64 moves of the Gong family."

Chu Xiangqian now fully understands that these man-made things are the unique trick of the Gong family.

He unbuttoned his suit, took off his suit and stood in the middle of the restaurant lobby, and said to Master Fan, "After all, it's just that I'm not good enough.

If my own kung fu is not well practiced, I think it is because my ancestors are not good enough, and I put my mind on other people's kung fu. "

The man was directly torn by Chu Xiangqian, feeling ashamed and angry in his heart.

Putting on a posture and giving a reminder, when Chu moved forward and clasped his fists.

He rushed forward fiercely, and hit Chu Xiangqian with a heart-piercing kick.

But in Chu Xiangqian's eyes, the opponent's movements seemed to have slowed down by several percent.

After raising his leg, he came first, and put his foot on his leg socket faster than the opponent.

This place is the side of the knee joint, with a large number of muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, lymph, arteries and veins, and nerves.

If you go down with one leg, you might lose one of the opponent's legs.

Chu Xiangqian finally managed to save some strength, and after kicking the opponent, he clenched his fist to gather strength, and slapped his opponent hard.
