Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 237

Chu Xiangqian picked up the handbag, got in the car and was still in the passenger seat, and then said to Duan Hongchun, "Old Duan, the taste of restaurants is the first, it's true.

However, if there is a mistake in service and sanitation, the business of the restaurant will plummet.It takes years for the sea to slow down, or even slow down, you know? "

"Understand, understand," Duan Hongchun nodded hurriedly, "Don't worry, Chu Sheng, I will definitely remember your words."

Chu Xiangqian can now be said to be Duan Hongchun's God of Wealth.

The restaurant's business increased by 2% last month, but its net profit was only [-] yuan.

If this were changed to before, Duan Hongchun would be so happy that he couldn't sleep.

But after selling 20 sika deer, he earned 4 yuan in this item alone.

It can be said that in just half a year, Duan Hongchun was able to earn back a "honest" restaurant.

If Chu Sheng doesn't plan to open a branch at that time, for a person with little ambition like himself, then he will listen to him and buy a building or a store.

If Chu Xiangqian knew what he was thinking, he would definitely give him a thumbs up.

In his memory, a 14-square-meter milk tea shop in Causeway Bay in the future cost 64 when he bought it in 9.4.

But in 11, the selling price alone was as high as 3.8 million.

The highest monthly rent once reached 140 million Hong Kong dollars a month.

In just 57 years, the return on investment reached 3 times.

This is three times higher than the rate of return on buying shares in the company at the beginning of IBM's establishment.

Therefore, when Chu Xiangqian told Baifanyu that the store in Causeway Bay could be passed down from generation to generation, it was true.

The rent for 10 stores alone in the next year will be at least 1.5 million.

When I got home, I went into Xinshou Village and lay down in the fountain to take a bath. By the way, I soaked my clothes in the fountain to purify them.

Then began to calculate the income of these two days.

In the morning, Baifanyu gave away 100 million and the property rights of the Causeway Bay Cinema, and in the evening he won 65.

Adding in the 6 yuan for buying tiger and deer glue for rice fish, it is equal to 171 million cash in hand.

If you add in the 30 given to Xiao Ma, it means that your income in these two days has exceeded 200 million.

But tomorrow, if we take Baifanyu, the five movie theaters in Kowloon will cost 5 million yuan.

After careful calculation, I found 500 million cash from Lai Hao's secret warehouse before, plus the 8 scattered money in my hand, it means that I only have 429 million left in my hand.

After 12 o'clock in the evening, all the wild monsters in Xinshou Village were wiped out.

The experience also successfully exceeded 10 and was upgraded to level 11.

Character: Chu Xiangqian, level 11, 500/15

Seeing that the total experience gained from level 11 to level 12 has only increased by 5, Chu Xiangqian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After thinking about it, I still add the points to the physique.

Physique 8.8
force 3.7
Agile 3.5
A sense of refreshment emanated from his body, Chu Xiangqian clenched his fists, and suddenly felt a little bit stronger.

Da Zhuang, Hong Niu and Tit are still going to need two or three days to upgrade.

And Chitu and Jade Lion successfully upgraded to level 10 1100/51200.

Originally, the two horses had added 6 points of constitution, 1 point of strength, and 1 point of agility. Adding agility was the choice to highlight their advantages.

But Chu Xiangqian knew that in the real world, there was no need to make the speed of the two horses so fast that it was incomprehensible.

In the end, it can only be added to the physique again.

With his physical constitution of 1.4 +7, Chitu would be able to run at a constant speed of 30 kilometers per hour for an entire day without any problem.

This is the true sense of traveling a thousand miles.

This horse was placed in ancient times, under heavy armor, it was really invincible.

Maybe a horse can be exchanged for a city.

Chu Xiangqian thought secretly that Chitu would never be allowed to run endurance races of hundreds of kilometers or thousands of kilometers in the future.

Otherwise it would be too scary.
-
The next morning, Chu Xiangqian called Uncle Hai and Sanjiangshui, told them to keep an eye on the crew, and told the director that they should continue filming today.

After hanging up the phone, Chu Xiangqian went to the "Huang Weixin Law Firm" according to the agreed time, and discussed with Da Ma and the lawyers of the two brothers to finalize the change of shares of Oriental Daily.

From this moment on, Chu Xiangqian officially entered the Hong Kong newspaper industry.

As soon as the contract was signed, barrister Huang Weixin's attitude towards Chu Xiangqian immediately improved by several levels.

It even made people feel that he was trying to curry favor with Chu Xiangqian.

Chu Xiangqian, who was planning to wait for Baifanyu to come over and go to the newspaper office after signing the sales contract of five movie theaters, said a few words to Da Ma and asked them to wait for him for a while.

Then he took Huang Weixin to his office, sat down and asked, "Lawyer Huang, are you in trouble?"

Huang Weixin hesitated for a moment, and then said with an embarrassed smile, "Chu Sheng, I'm really sorry, if it involves legal issues, or things that can be solved by the police, I don't need to bother you.

But this time the person causing trouble is a person from Macau, and my methods are really powerless against him. "

Chu nodded forward. As a senior barrister, his network of connections is by no means small.

Even some big clubs would never provoke him unless necessary.

As for the poor man, seeing him made my heart tremble.

One complaint, maybe the plainclothes will have to be transferred to the military uniform, even if it is at the inspector level, it will be a headache.

But if there is a cross-border lawsuit, it must be him, Attorney Huang, who has a headache.

Chu Xiangqian smiled and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Huang Weixin calmed down his thoughts, lit a cigar for Chu Qianqian, and then said, "I have a client who has a child who is not sensible and was dazzled by a beautiful girl.

I spent 10,000+ on that woman before and after.

If it's just for money, it's okay, after all, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

But the woman saw that there was no hope of getting into a wealthy family, and she actually said that she had a photo of my client's son in her hand, and she was pregnant herself.

Now people have hid in Macau and colluded with people from the association.If it is 100 million, the child will be abolished. Otherwise, not only will the photo be published in the newspaper, but the child will be raised to fight for the family property.

I asked someone and found out that the woman was not pregnant.It's just that my client is worried that if it is delayed for a long time, it is very likely that she will be threatened by being pregnant with a child. "

Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes at Huang Weixin, it was nothing more than a scumbag who didn't want to take responsibility.

After the gold digger's dream of marrying into a wealthy family was shattered, she wanted to make another big fortune.

But there is no DNA testing these days. If the woman had a child with someone else's man, it would really be a big trouble.

"Lawyer Huang, it seems that the lawyer's fee paid by your client should not be low."

Huang Weixin was stunned, smiled awkwardly and said, "The legal fees are indeed very high, but it is not money, but a piece of 2 acres of industrial land worth 4 Hong Kong dollars in Tuen Mun, New Territories.

My client doesn't have much money, but he is definitely a big landlord in the New Territories.Many villages and towns in the New Territories have large tracts of land. "

Chu Xiangqian was moved. Although the New Territories at this time were in the countryside, and because they were leased, the British had never planned to develop them.

But if I remember correctly, it seems that since 60, Tuen Mun will plan to develop into a new town.

Of course, after the development plan is determined, if you want to develop it, you will not see results in one or two years.

But one mu of land is only 5 yuan. If you spend 10 or 20 yuan, you can still buy 20 or 40 acres of land. It is not difficult to increase the price by two to three years.

If the factory building is rented out, the rate of return will not be low.

"Has the plan to develop a new town in Tuen Mun been announced?"

Huang Weixin was taken aback for a moment, he had only known the news for a few days.

Otherwise, who would have taken a fancy to the land on the Tuen Mun side? I didn't expect Chu Xiangqian to know about it, and from what he said about the 'new town', it seemed that he knew more than himself.

The importance attached to Chu Xiangqian in my heart, after raising another level, nodded and said, "I heard from my teacher that it should be announced within a month or two."

Chu Xiangqian immediately smiled and said, "Lawyer Huang, I don't care about your 4 acres of land, but you have to help me buy a larger piece of industrial land, and I will help you solve the trouble in Macau. How about that?"

"No problem," Huang Weixin agreed immediately.Anyway, customers have plenty of land.

Giving Chu Qianqian 10 acres was only 5 yuan.

Compared with the million Hong Kong dollars that the woman threatened, it was just a drop in the bucket.

Of course, both Huang Weixin and Chu Xiangqian knew in their hearts that when they were a big landlord in the New Territories and the local power was extremely strong, it was impossible to just ask Huang Weixin to settle the matter.

So be fast.

Chu Xiangqian picked up the phone on the table and called Deng Fei.

"Hey, who is it?"

"Dun Bo, I, Ah Chu."

Chu Xiangqian put the phone on the table and asked Huang Weixin to listen.

Only then did he explain selectively, and Deng Fei quickly understood.

He smiled and said, "Chu Sheng, after the person is found, should he be sent back to the New Territories, or should I have someone deal with it directly?"

Chu Qianqian looked at Huang Weixin, how dare this guy speak now.

He hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal Chu Qianqian to make the decision.

Chu Xiangqian smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Deng Bo, let's see if that woman is really pregnant with someone else's child.

If there is, then we have to support others to seek justice.

If it's a lie, it's fine. "

Deng Fei smiled, knowing that Chu Xiangqian had said so much, and the last sentence was the key point.

"Okay, I'll call you and let you know if there's any news."

Chu Xiangqian hung up the phone and looked at Huang Weixin, "Lawyer Huang, it's best to move quickly for the land I want. If possible, I will pay 50 to buy 100 acres of industrial land."

"This...", Huang Weixin was just being scared by Chu Xiangqian's disregard for human life as expressed by Chu Xiangqian's sentence just now, "If you lie to people, then do whatever you want."

When I heard Chu Xiangqian say that he wanted to buy 100 acres of land, I was shocked.

Although the 'New Town' plan is about to be announced, there are not many people who are really optimistic about the future of Tuen Mun.

The reason is simple, there is not much population in that place.

And no matter how good the new town plan is, it cannot compare with Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.

Many young people will still go to Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.

With a small population and the loss of young people, it will be difficult for the real estate industry to make significant achievements for a long time.

If real estate cannot develop, the appearance of the city cannot be changed in a short time.

The development of new town plans is also slow.

Therefore, in Huang Weixin's view, spending 50 yuan to buy land in Tuen Mun is not as good as buying properties, stores, or even a small building in Kowloon and Hong Kong Island.

But Chu Xiangqian knows that the development of Tuen Mun does take time, but in a few years, there will be a large number of toy factories in Tuen Mun.

In the 70s, it once became the largest exporter of toys in the world, and has remained the number one in the world all year round.

This requires a large amount of industrial land.

Just keeping the 100 mu of land, the annual rent is quite a lot. Most importantly, although the business does not make much money, but employing hundreds or thousands of workers, not only the social status is much higher than that of the purely rich.

Local influence can also be regarded as a kind of protection for oneself.

Otherwise, Chu Xiangqian would be stupid to buy 100 mu of land in a rural place like Tuen Mun.

Even if you don't open a factory yourself in the future, you can still buy shares with land.

100 mu of land is enough to open an industrial park and attract ten or twenty toy factories to settle in.

If thousands of people work there, those politicians in Tuen Mun will 100% win over them.

Even clinging to himself.

This is the best means of self-protection.

As for the land as a share, it may be occupied by others, and the land will appreciate in value.

The worst case scenario is to sign a 10- or 20-year use right with the factory instead of property rights.

Not only in the past 20 years, we have been able to enjoy the development benefits and large dividends of Tuen Mun's industry.

After the land was taken back in the 80s, it happened to coincide with the special period when the British were about to be driven out, and they could do things with money.

Convert industrial land to commercial land and then build high-rise buildings.

Of course, you can also spend money to convert the land into commercial land now after obtaining it.

Not long after, when Baifanyu arrived with his lawyer, Chu Xiangqian signed a contract with him for the transfer of five movie theaters in Kowloon and the decoration with Baifanyu.

In the end, even the playback equipment, Baifanyu patted his chest and said that he could handle this matter, and it was included in the 50 fee.

Chu Qianqian glanced at Baifanyu, secretly wondering if the old man had something to ask for help from him again.

Huang Weixin whispered in his ear, "Chu Sheng, Mr. Bai is in the parallel import business. He can get cars, hardware, gasoline, etc. from other places into Hong Kong Island.

It is not difficult for him to buy several sets of equipment, and they are at least 5% cheaper. "

Chu Xiangqian felt relieved, and at the same time, he also paid more attention to Baifanyu's attitude.

People who can walk by water, not to mention themselves, may even want to win him over.

Not to mention the future, just transporting food, rice and fish is much easier than others.

But how to pull him into the game has to be carefully considered.

Then he took out a box, and when he opened it, he saw a full 250 million in cash inside.

Not to mention the lawyers, even the white rice fish and the big and small horses watching the fun couldn't help but secretly swallow their saliva.

When I thought that Chu Qianqian came to Hong Kong Island and could easily take out such a large amount of money in just two or three months, I couldn't help but think that if I follow this guy in business from now on, the money he can earn in a year might be It will be worse than a side business.

It's just that the big and small horses don't have many chips to make Chu Xiangqian's heart beat.

And Baifanyu had already taken the lead, and even boarded Chu Xiangqian's boat.

"Ah Chu, give Uncle A and me 10 days, and the custodians will work overtime to decorate those 6 movie theaters for you.

When the equipment is purchased, there will be six large movie theaters that can seat three to four hundred people.

Plus my four, that's a chain of 10 cinemas.

From now on, Uncle will take advantage of you and change from club boss to entertainment tycoon. "

The big horses who said this were envious to death.

Chu Xiangqian laughed. If Baifanyu concentrates on filming Fengyue movies and then invests in other types of movies when he has experience, he will indeed become an entertainment tycoon with a high probability.

After all, he has a movie theater and funds. In ten years, during Lei Luo's reign, he doesn't have to worry about troubles from associations and other film companies.

It can be said that Baifanyu is uniquely endowed with obvious advantages in this industry.

The big and small ponies congratulated each other repeatedly, but their words repeatedly hinted that they wanted to get involved.

It was so easy for Chu Xiangqian and Baifanyu to pull the two brothers into the game.

Just keep perfunctory as if you didn't understand.

After some politeness, Deng Fei's phone call came in.

Chu Qianqian went to Huang Weixin's office and soon heard Deng Fei say that the woman must indeed be pregnant.

But the child's father is most likely a son-in-law from Macau.

In other words, when the woman was dating the son of Huang Weixin's client, she had always maintained a relationship with a son-in-law.

Chu Xiangqian still had a bottom line after all. He smiled and said to Deng Fei on the other end of the phone, "Uncle Deng, send that woman to the countryside to find someone to marry."

"Okay," Deng Fei said with a smile, "I will take care of this matter and take care of it."

Half a month later, Deng Fei and Chu Xiangqian gave him a picture of a woman and a man taking a group photo at the Lion City pier when they had the guts to drink morning tea.

As for that young man, Chu Xiangqian didn't care.

There is a high probability that it has been filled into the sea.
-
After leaving the lawyer's office, Chu Xiangqian drove the car and followed the big horse all the way to the newspaper office.

But he didn't want the old guy Baifanyu to follow him with a stern face.

The big and small horses looked unhappy, but when they were in the law firm just now, the two brothers had the cheek to not leave, and now it's really hard to care about Baifanyu.

The four of them brought seven or eight younger brothers into a 4-story building in East Tsim Sha Tsui. Before entering, Chu Xiangqian looked around at the surrounding environment of the newspaper office.

I secretly thought that although it is not worthwhile to buy land in Tsim Sha Tsui now.

But it is still necessary to spend money to buy the tidal land across the street from the newspaper office, and build warehouses and printing factories.

After all, if there are no accidents, the development of the newspaper office will be very fast. The supporting facilities should be built first, so as not to hinder the development of the newspaper office.

This is business. Naturally, we cannot look at the issue of land purchase from an investment perspective.

Then, on the grounds of building a courtyard wall, a large piece of purchased land was enclosed with a wall.

At that time, not only will there be no shortage of expanded land for the newspaper office, but in 30 to [-] years, after the tidal flats are reclaimed, they will soon become excellent commercial land.

Chu Xiangqian thought about it, and bought it with his own money, and then authorized it to the newspaper for 1 years at the price of 10 Hong Kong dollar.

Decades later, when he thought about how much billions, or even tens of billions, could be made from this land alone, Chu Xiangqian felt that spending 30 to buy 70% of the newspaper's shares was a great deal.

Of course, as long as Chu Xiangqian is willing to spend money, one or two million yuan can also easily build a newspaper office.

With the ideas in my mind, there should be many developments.

At least Chu Xiangqian knew that gossip and entertainment newspapers were very popular among ordinary people in this era.

Otherwise, the Dongfang Daily in the real world would not have sold more than 8 newspapers in just over a year after changing its style.

In another year and a half, daily sales will reach 30, and this is not the limit.

At its peak, 58 copies were sold in one day.

This is also the sales record of Hong Kong Island Daily.

As long as it develops on its own, it will take at least one or two years for the newspaper to stabilize, and Chu Xiangqian is also a little worried. If Da Ma does not give up on Oriental Daily, there may be another chance to grow the newspaper.

It's better to buy this newspaper first, and one article will ruin the opportunity of big and small horses.

Once you are familiar with the two, it will be easier to start other types of newspapers.

Entering the office building of the newspaper, Chu Xiangqian said to Da Ma beside him when he was going upstairs, "Brother Da Ma, can you buy the tidal flat opposite?"

The chubby Dama was stunned for a moment, took a few breaths, and held on to the wall of the corridor with one hand for a while before saying, "Chu Sheng, are you thinking about the future expansion of the newspaper office?"

Chu Xiangqian nodded, "These lands should not be expensive, and people who have no foresight must have near-term worries. If you brothers think you should take it easy, then I will pay for it separately and buy 10 or 20 acres of land and put them there.

If the newspaper company needs it, I can rent it to the newspaper company at 8% of the market price, and the price can be negotiated every five years. "

Baifanyu knew what Chu Xiangqian was planning as soon as he heard this.

He said before that money will become less and less valuable. Of course, taking advantage of the low land price now, he bought a lot of land and put it away.

And just like what he said, these tidal flats are not valuable at all. If you buy 10 acres, even if this is East Tsim Sha Tsui, the price will not exceed 20.

Da Ma shook his head. Although the two brothers are well-off, even if the younger brother chases a female star, he can throw out 10,000+, 10,000+.

But asking them to spend 20 yuan to buy a tidal land with no prospect at all is really embarrassing for him.

Seeing Dama's hesitation, Chu Xiangqian said with a smile, "Okay, I'll buy it myself, and then build a few warehouses and factories. When the newspaper's sales slowly increase, we will build our own printing factory.

Moreover, I plan to set up this printing house, which will not make a dime except for labor and other expenses, and will specialize in printing newspapers for various local newspapers on Hong Kong Island.

As a result, business is bound to be much lower than other printing plants.

If other newspapers want to cause trouble for us, they will have more scruples.

By the way, our newspaper's own printing costs can also be reduced, and the newspaper will naturally make more money. This can be regarded as transferring the profits of the printing factory to the newspaper.

And this is a good thing for all newspapers, maybe Brother Da Ma will become the first president of the Hong Kong Island Newspaper Association that day. "

Da Ma's eyes lit up when he heard this. In the past few years, he had gained money and many subordinates, and he had long been thinking about how to improve his social status.

The chairman of an entire industry, thinking about it, makes Malaysia feel that this matter must be approved.

"How about we pay for 10 acres of land together?"

Chu Xiangqian waved his hand, "I'll buy the land myself, and the president of the association will do it for you. I'm still young and I don't need these things."

The pony and the pony's favorable impression of Chu Xiangqian suddenly exploded.

Baifanyu secretly laughed in his heart. Chu Xiangqian had grasped the weakness of Dama's good reputation.

From now on, this fat man obviously does not have as many shares as Chu Xiangqian, but he has to do his best to manage the newspaper office. It is no exaggeration to say that he is working for Chu Xiangqian.

After meeting He Yisheng, the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Chu Qianqian, the new boss, quickly appeared in the big office and greeted all the employees at the newspaper.

To put it bluntly, this month's salary is doubled, and he pays for it himself.

Instantly won everyone's favor.

Returning to the editor-in-chief's office, Chu Xiangqian did not sit in the editor-in-chief's seat. Instead, he and Da Ma sat across from the editor-in-chief and began to understand the basic situation of the newspaper.
