Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 257 It seems that I have taken advantage of myself

After looking at the sky, Chu Qianqian drove the speedboat and finally returned to Kwai Chung Pier before it got completely dark.

After returning the speedboat and taking back the deposit, the fish boss hesitated for a moment, but in the end he didn't ask Chu Qianqian what he did for four days and three nights.

In his mind, there was a high probability that this kid was on a shopping spree.

Therefore, in the eyes of Boss Yu, people like Chu Xiangqian are basically not easy to mess with, so it is better not to bother with the two thousand deposit.

After driving the car out of the grain warehouse on the dock, Chu Qianqian thought about it and put the car into Novice Village.

I got on my bicycle, wearing old clothes, and rode unsteadily toward Kowloon.

I met a phone booth on the road and called Qian Guotai, "Qian Sheng, the bread you ordered has arrived. Come and get it when you have time."

Qian Guotai knew it was Chu Qianqian as soon as he heard it, even though the boy deliberately put his finger on his throat and his voice changed.

Hurry to reply, go back and get it tomorrow.

After hanging up the phone, Qian Guotai walked around excitedly.

In the end, I couldn't hold it back anymore, so I dressed up and made sure no one was following me several times. Then with excitement, I crossed the sea to East Tsim Sha Tsui, where I met Chu Qianqian a few days ago.

It's a pity that Chu Qianqian didn't wait until he waited.

Just as he was about to go back, Chu Qianqian, who had already driven to the Peninsula Hotel, spotted him through his tits.

He turned the car into a parking space on the street, walked to the alley, got on his bicycle, and slowly followed Qian Cathay, who was already walking to the ferry terminal.

After making sure that no one was following Qian Guotai, he caught up with him on his bicycle. When the two passed by, Qian Guotai heard the sound of "Shatoujiao Sea, XX Island".

By the time he was sure that the figure riding the bicycle was Chu Qianqian, Chu Qianqian had already ridden more than ten meters away.

Qian Guotai suppressed his excitement, accelerated his pace slightly, and boarded the ferry back to his residence.

The next step was simple. Not to mention transporting 30 rice, 2 breadfruit, 2 kilograms of dried fish and 5300 kilograms of chestnuts overnight, there was no news from Hong Kong Island at all.

Chu Xiangqian went back and drove into the Peninsula Hotel, feeling very happy.

So much so that when she entered the suite, she hugged Feifei and walked to the bedroom.

The little girl has had enough rest in the past few days, and she has just been developed, and her love for Chu Xiangqian is so deep.

Any request made by Chu Xiangqian was obeyed without thinking.

It's a pity that Feifei is young after all and is still a scumbag. She slept until noon the next day and then got up in a daze.

Seeing that Chu Xiangqian rarely left early in the morning, he immediately ran to the sofa happily, lay in his arms and continued to doze off with his eyes squinted.

Not long after, the doorbell rang in the suite. Chu stepped forward and patted Feifei on the back, smiling and saying, "I asked someone to cook deer glue and red date soup, and also ordered two dishes and one soup.

You go wash up first and then drink the deer gum. We'll have lunch in 10 minutes. "

Feifei twisted reluctantly and muttered without opening her eyes, "Hubby, can you open the door?"

Chu rolled his eyes forward, stood up with her in his arms, and entered the bathroom.

Then he went to open the door himself.

Not long after, Chu Qianqian, who was having lunch, quickly saw Qian Guotai carrying dried fish and other things from the tit eyes, sitting at the place where they met last time to fish.

I immediately understood that the food and other things must have been transported back.

Otherwise, this guy's steps would not be so brisk, not to mention that the titmouse was still whistling when he saw him fishing.

Chu Xiangqian was no longer in a hurry. Not only did he finish lunch with Feifei, he also took a nap with her in his arms.

After Feifei fell asleep, she got up and went out to see Qian Guotai.

During this period, Chickadee also confirmed again and again that no one was staring at this side.

Seeing Chu Qianqian sitting next to him, Qian Guotai's eyes narrowed with a smile.

"All the things have been transported back, and the 120 soldiers who were responsible for transporting them last night will be stationed at Dongpingzhou, Dapengwan, specifically responsible for transporting the food you brought.

In the meantime, they will only stay on the island from now on.

If you need anything, these 120 people are at your command.But once you really use them, you will have to be responsible for the supply of these people in the future. "

Chu Xiangqian rolled his eyes after hearing this. A month's rations for 120 people was quite a lot.

And once you become your own person, your food must not be too bad.

But think about 120 soldiers, and soldiers carrying infantry weapons. If they appeared on Hong Kong Island, they would really cause earth-shaking.

As for whether these soldiers stationed on Dongpingzhou Island would be discovered by Hong Kong Island, Chu Xiangqian thought about it and felt that the probability was very low.

I sailed all the way yesterday, and even the marine police on Hong Kong Island didn't come across a single one, and the smuggling boats basically all went to the western waters.

There is no oil or water in this sea area to the east, so the marine police are naturally unwilling to go there.

Of course, when it becomes more difficult for mainlanders to enter Hong Kong Island in the future, it will become the first choice for many people to swim across the sea.

But Chu Xiangqian actually only needs to get more food from the mainland this year and next year.

In other words, your security has been guaranteed to be high enough.

He said with a smile, "Next month I will get another 30 kilograms of grain, 15 kilograms of breadfruit and [-] kilograms of dried fish. After that, it will be somewhat beyond my ability."

Otherwise, my current business will definitely be greatly affected. "

Qian Guotai nodded. The food and other things last night alone cost almost 30 Hong Kong dollars.

It's okay to give it away once or twice, but if it happens too often, it will really affect Chu Xiangqian's capital flow.

At this time, Chu Xiangqian had already planned to increase the breadfruit supply from 2 jins to 15 jins next month, which is equal to the grain sent to the mainland, with a value of about 35 to 40.

The capital consumption of RMB 6 to RMB 70 before and after, for the sake of long-term interests, the superiors would not let themselves continue to give it away in vain.

"Don't worry, the big boss asked me to tell you that although we can't give you foreign exchange, there is no shortage of high-quality medicinal materials. There is already a batch of medicinal materials worth 30 Tianchao coins being collected and waiting to be sent to Guangdong.

Then transport them in batches and I'll hand them over to you. "

After speaking, Qian Guotai took out a folded piece of paper from his pocket.

Chu Qianqian took it and opened it. On it was a handwritten prescription for Shen Bao, as well as a detailed explanation of how to make it.

Just after reading it, Chu Xiangqian felt that he could do it.

Of course, I really don’t know whether the finished product is good or not.

But I have a plug-in. I can put various medicinal materials in the Novice Village Pharmacy and click Make, and I should be able to make finished pills.

The only question is whether to consume silver coins or gold coupons.

There are also how many silver coins or gold coupons need to be consumed to make a finished product.

"By the way, the 300 kilograms of Hotan mutton-fat white jade, chicken blood stone and Tianhuang stone you asked for have been transported to the dock. Should I drive to you tomorrow, or will we hand it over somewhere?"

Chu Qianqian thought for a while, "Tomorrow I will ask someone to drive to the newsstand outside Sha Tin Racecourse and wait at the newsstand. When you see my car, just ask him to move it to the car."

Qian Guotai nodded.

If it were yesterday, he would have advised Chu to be careful going forward and it would be best to hand over the matter himself.

But because of the large amount of food last night, in Qian Guotai's heart, Chu Xiangqian must have a group of trustworthy people.

So he asked others to come, and he could take the opportunity to see who it was.

It would be great if I could follow this person and guess who those subordinates are.

If Chu Xiangqian knew Qian Guotai's thoughts, he would definitely laugh out loud.

With tits staring at him, it was impossible for Zhang Tianzhi to act recklessly.And he also has a son here, so he won't mess around.

By the way, it was used as a test for Zhang Tianzhi.

Finally, Chu Xiangqian mentioned the stick throwing thing again.

Qian Guotai wanted to persuade him again, but Chu stepped forward and said, "Half of the proceeds from this business will go to Mountbatten's grandson."

Qian Guotai's attitude immediately changed.

His tone was a little surprised, but he asked uncertainly, "Is this really the Mountbatten who became marshal last year?"

Chu shrugged forward, "I learned from that guy Norton that Hong Kong Island wants to import more pigs, chickens, ducks and grain from the mainland.

We are short of food now, but pigs can be raised here in Nanguang, and we can try to raise them in small batches in the mountains and forests.

If you have hogweed on the top of a mountain, you will definitely be able to raise two.

It doesn’t take too much, just raise a few dozen first, and then think about slowly expanding the scale after you’re sure it works. "

While Qian Guotai nodded, he was secretly thinking that his superiors would not just want to raise dozens of animals for experiments.

There must be hundreds, even thousands.

Chu Xiangqian also knew this, and advised with a serious face, "It's best not to act eager to earn foreign exchange. In the eyes of capitalists, profit is the first priority.

Once we are in a hurry, they will not miss the opportunity to lower the price.Moreover, transporting pigs is a big trouble. Otherwise, if you are not prepared, there will be too much loss on the road, and you will suffer a huge loss, which is not worth the gain. "

Qian Guotai nodded hurriedly.

Of course, in his mind, the drought situation in the mainland may not be alleviated for long.

After two or three months of research and discussion, just after the situation was alleviated, we took advantage of the situation to expand the scale of pig farming.

Later, I also gained a new understanding of Chu Xiangqian’s communication skills.

From the looks of it, this guy will 100% be able to get some information on Hong Kong Island in the future. He may even know about things in London very quickly.

Qian Guotai found that he still underestimated Chu Xianghou, and he took his attitude more seriously.

After thinking for a while, he asked, "How many sticks will you need for the first batch?"

Chu Xiangqian shook his head, "It is expected to cost 2 pieces, and the price can be as low as 10 Hong Kong dollars per piece, but the quality should at least not be worse than what I customized."

After finishing speaking, Chu Xiangqian took out a stick from his pocket, and handed over the swing stick made by the blacksmith shop in Xinshou Village to Qian Guotai.

"You can take this stick back for experiments. The strength and craftsmanship cannot be worse than this. If the cost is higher than 10 Hong Kong dollars, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

Qian Guotai frowned and took the swinging stick, and according to Chu Xiangqian's explanation, he shook it vigorously, and immediately threw out the stick with two knots.

Just looking at it makes people think that this thing is very suitable for ordinary people to use as a self-defense weapon.

"By the way, don't rush to distribute this gadget to the military and police. At least wait until we sell it to the English, so as not to get me into trouble because of this."

Qian Guotai nodded hurriedly. This thing seemed convenient, but daggers were definitely more popular in China.

And even in an era when the guards were handing out guns, basically no one wanted this thing if it was handed out.Adding 2 cigarettes is 20 Hong Kong dollars, which will definitely not be distributed to the troops.

As for the cost point, not to mention that the mainland can reduce the cost to less than 10 Hong Kong dollars, even if the cost exceeds 15 yuan, the higher-ups will still produce at a loss in order to earn foreign exchange.

After all, when it is state-owned, the ore is actually free of charge. If you calculate it this way, the cost is actually very low.

Qian Guotai carefully examined the swing stick for a while, and suddenly felt that the craftsmanship would not be difficult. After all, the gun barrel and barrel must be much more difficult than this.

The question now is what kind of steel should be used to save money and ensure quality.

Qian Guotai thought about it carefully and secretly said that this thing would not be more difficult to make than the steel pipe of the bicycle's triangle bracket.

"Okay, I'll report this to you shortly. It shouldn't be a big problem."

After finishing speaking, Qian Guotai hesitated for a few seconds before asking, "How much do you and Mountbatten's grandson plan to sell to the English military police?"

Chu Qianqian smiled. He shouldn't be able to hide the price for a long time, so he might as well say it clearly.

"The FOB price is 5 pounds. When it arrives in England, the purchase price should not be less than 8 pounds."

Qian Guotai became indignant after hearing this.

But Chu Xiangqian said, "If you have the ability, you can sell it to the English people yourself. By then, let alone 8 pounds, it will be 1 pound a piece, and no one will care about you.

Besides, do you really think we'll get £10, or maybe £16? "

Qian Guotai understands this. Maybe the purchase price of 8 pounds may not even be 4 pounds when it finally reaches Chu Xiangqian and Mountbatten's grandson.

If Chu Xiangqian split another point with Norton, he might get only 2 pounds.

But when he thought that 2 pounds was equal to 32 Hong Kong dollars, Qian Guotai still felt that Chu Xiangqian had taken too much profit.

Chu Xiangqian naturally had a way to block the mouth of his superiors.

Pretending to be helpless, he said, "For this matter, I spent a full 8 pounds to buy two blood horses, a male and a female, from an Arab and gave them to Mountbatten's grandson Norton.

For this business, Norton also planned to give two bloody horses to Princess Margaery.

This 8 pounds alone has almost wiped out more than half of the cash in my hand.

If I want to make money back, I have to sell at least 12 sticks.Do you still think I earn a lot now? "

Qian Guotai was suddenly speechless.

Chu Qianqian continued without letting go, "How about I ask the superior to help me get two bloody horses, and I give up two-thirds of the pure profit from the stick to the superior?"

Qian Guotai shook his head without thinking. The Khan-blooded Horse currently only has Kazakhs and polar bears with stable pure-blood groups.

But the polar bears heard that there were only 3 or 4 pure-blood horses, so I asked the polar bears for them. Thinking about it, I knew that they would definitely be rejected.

Even if the polar bear agrees, who knows if the horse sent over is a mixed-breed horse that has been mixed with other horse breeds.

If Norton saw this, the custodian would feel cheated.

It is not easy to ask for help from Kazakhstan, and it will definitely take a long time.

"Okay, okay, I will report this to my superiors in detail."

After talking about Qian Guotai, he was again thinking about the pound in Chu Xiangqian's hand.

According to what he said before.

A white tiger can sell for £30.

I gave myself 240 million Hong Kong dollars before, which is equivalent to giving 15 pounds to my boss.

Now I spent another 8 yuan to buy two blood horses, a male and a female.

In other words, the pounds left in his hand should only be 7.

But asking for it directly is definitely not possible. After thinking about it, I still have to let the superiors decide whether to exchange things for the 7 pounds.

Whether to sell him food and handicrafts from the mainland, the decision needs to be made by the superiors.
-
The next morning, Chu Xiangqian, who hadn't spent the night at the Peninsula Hotel, got up early, and the chick saw Zhang Tianzhi go out to buy breakfast, and Chu Xiangqian also opened the door and pretended to go for a run.

Zhang Tianzhi, who hadn't seen Chu Qianqian for several days, although he had moved into Gong Er's house, had been idle for a few days and his boss had gone somewhere, and now he was feeling awkward and anxious.

When he saw Chu Qianqian, his face lit up, "Boss, you're back."

Chu Qianqian smiled and nodded. Seeing him holding an aluminum lunch box, he asked with a smile, "Going to buy breakfast?"

Zhang Tianzhi nodded hurriedly, "How about I buy you some too? You can eat it when you come back from your run."

Naturally, Chu Qianqian would not refuse. He ran out for half an hour and returned to Gong Er's house next door.

He saw Zhang Tianzhi and his son, who was in elementary school, sitting in the living room waiting for him.

Zhang Tianzhi hurriedly stood up and said, "Boss."

The little guy also stood up uneasily and shouted, "Mr."

Chu waved his hand forward and said to Zhang Feng with a smile, "From now on, you can call me Uncle Chu or my uncle, do you understand?"

Zhang Feng turned his head to look at his biological father. Zhang Tianzhi felt very happy, but felt that it was inappropriate to call him such a name.

Chu Xiangqian didn't wait for him to speak, "Okay, okay, it's decided."

Zhang Tianzhi nodded to his son.

Zhang Feng hurriedly smiled and shouted, "Uncle Chu, sit down quickly, I will serve you porridge."

This time Chu Xiangqian was not polite and watched the little guy nervously serve himself porridge and put down a pair of chopsticks.

He touched Zhang Feng's head and said "thank you", and the three of them soon sat down to have breakfast together.

After almost eating, Chu Qianqian handed the key to Zhang Tianzhi, "Master Zhang, you will drive my car to take Zhang Feng to school in a while, and then wait by the newspapers and magazines outside Happy Valley Racecourse.

I bought a batch of jade, please help me transport it back. "

Zhang Tianzhi nodded hurriedly. Although he was a little confused, he didn't ask any more questions.

Anyway, he will do whatever the boss tells him. Of course, if Chu Xiangqian sells flour, he will definitely resign.

Three hours later, Chu Qianqian's car parked outside the door, and he saw Zhang Tianzhi holding a box in one hand and walking quickly into the dry goods shop with some difficulty.

Seeing Chu Qianqian sitting on the counter, holding a piece of paper, not knowing what he was looking at, he hurriedly said, "Boss, I brought the things back."

Chu nodded forward, pointed to the table, walked over, and opened a box.

It was full of pieces, tightly wrapped balls wrapped in newspapers and hay.

Chu Xiangqian did not avoid Zhang Tianzhi, and casually took apart a piece, and saw a semi-finished chicken blood stone that had been carved into shape and was about the size of a fist.

With just one glance, Chu Xiangqian determined that it was the highest quality Changhua Bloodstone.

This semi-finished product looks like jade in your hand and is as red as chicken blood. It is easy to distinguish it from Bahrain chicken blood.

Seeing that it was really jade, Zhang Tianzhi felt relieved.

As for the jade business, it is a serious business that cannot be more serious.

Even if there is a problem with the source, for Zhang Tianzhi, who has practiced black boxing, it is not a problem at all, and he will not care.

Not long after all the 12 boxes were moved in, Chu Xiangqian said to Zhang Tianzhi with a smile, "Okay, you can go to 'Backbone' and book a table first, and the two of us will have lunch over there.

Wait until I have these things ready and then walk over by myself. "

Zhang Tianzhi nodded hurriedly. Of course, only the boss knows where Dong XZ is.

After everyone left, Chu Xiangqian closed the door of the dry goods shop, opened all 12 boxes, and looked at all the jade inside.

Only then was he satisfied with collecting all three kinds of jade into the warehouse of Xinshou Village.

Unexpectedly, the aperture outside the Novice Village actually expanded again.

Chu Xiangqian immediately understood that among the 300 kilograms of jade, there must be something old among the semi-finished products.

Thinking about it carefully, it feels normal.

These are the three kinds of jade that are the best in the country and have been popular since ancient times. No matter how hard the country tries, it is impossible to mine so much jade from the production area in such a short period of time.

It’s no wonder that there are hesitations in China. In fact, this thing itself is worth as much as gold.

One tael of gold is 31.5 grams, which costs 220 yuan in China, or 208 Hong Kong dollars.

300 kilograms equals 30 grams of gold.

Just these 30 grams of jade are equivalent to 198 million Hong Kong dollars.

In order to prevent themselves from feeling at a disadvantage in China, they not only give raw stones, but also add a lot of old jade to semi-finished products.

It seems that he did not suffer a loss. After all, he gave Cathay Pacific 240 million Hong Kong dollars last time.

But from a long-term perspective, these jade stones will definitely have greater room for appreciation than gold in the future.

Not to mention that one gram of gold now costs almost 6.6 Hong Kong dollars, but in a few decades, it will cost more than 500 yuan per gram, which is equivalent to a 75-fold increase.

Counting three kinds of top-quality jade, the future value itself will be more than one gram of jade compared to one gram of gold.

The best Tianhuang even costs 1 to 10.

The best chicken bloodstone and mutton fat white jade cost tens of thousands per gram.

Chu Xiangqian felt that he was really taking advantage of this.

He secretly said that he could not produce food out of thin air, but 15 to 16 kilograms of breadfruit was sent to the country several times for free every month.

At that time, I will tell you that there are people in Southeast Asia who owe me money and have not paid back, so they can only use breadfruit to offset the interest.

As for whether you believe it or not, it’s actually better not to believe it.

Let Qing Chen mistakenly think that he gave it to them for free.

No, it’s better to sell half and give half.

And since breadfruit has entered the country, he cannot sell it in large quantities on Hong Kong Island.

Otherwise, all fools know that this thing is most likely given to the mainland by themselves.

After the aperture stopped, Chu moved forward and counted, and immediately knew that the gold coupon had increased by another 1500 points.

In other words, the aperture expanded outward by 15 meters, and the total length reached 123.57 meters.

The side length of the entire space is already 247.14 meters.

Chu Xiangqian's first thought was to look at the stables in the south of the village.
