Siheyuan: My Northeastern Farmhouse

Chapter 280 Xiangjiang or Stinky River

Damn it, I don’t dare to fly at this airport if I’m not good at it!

This was Gu Weijun's first impression of Hong Kong.

The plane landed close to a residential area, and then there was a small runway. It felt like it would fly to the houses around the airport without paying attention. It was really exciting!

In the 65 years of Hong Kong's east-west intersection, the old and the new have alternated. The Central District, close to Victoria Harbor and the city center, is already full of high-rise buildings, but the low and dilapidated buildings between the high-rise buildings are really hard to describe. The low-rise commercial streets and residential buildings are stacked one on top of another. They were built haphazardly, including wooden huts and thatched cottages at the foot of the mountain.

At night, various lights are shining on Hennessy Road and Nathan Road in Kowloon. The remote North Point, also known as the Little Fujian area because of the majority of Fujian people, lacks lights. More remote areas further away, such as the New Territories, and mainland rural areas are even more so. No difference.

Hong Kong Xinhua News Agency is located at Queen's Road East, near the Royal Racecourse of Hong Kong. Gu Weijun accompanied Team Leader Fang to report here first. The docking staff from Beijing had arrived in Hong Kong a day ago. After safely locking the technical information in the safe, Team Leader Fang I breathed a sigh of relief, these information can really be said to be priceless.

Gu Weijun will stay in Hong Kong with Team Leader Fang for three days, and then will join Deputy Team Leader Chai and others who have returned from the Netherlands and return to Beijing together.

It was already August 8rd. Hong Kong is located in the subtropical zone. It was the hot season. From the moment he got off the plane, Gu Weijun saw that Team Leader Fang and the others were sweating. In order to join the group, he secretly held his breath and wiped his face. Hold back the redness.

There is no way, with Gu Weijun's current physical condition, he is really immune to cold and heat

After arriving at Xinhua News Agency, Gu Weijun reported to Team Leader Fang that he was going to the Peninsula Hotel. Because when he left West Germany, he had already mentioned that Constance was going to open a factory in Hong Kong, so Team Leader Fang asked Xinhua News Agency After a comrade helped accompany him, he was allowed to leave.

This comrade's surname was Xu. He took Gu Weijun to take a minibus after leaving Xinhua News Agency. He also took the initiative to pay 5 cents for the ticket. Then after arriving at the port, he took the Little Star Ferry for 1 cent to reach Kowloon. We then took a minibus to the Peninsula Hotel on Salisbury Road in Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon.

At this time, the Peninsula Hotel only had 7 floors. Its overall appearance was an H-shape. It faced Victoria Harbor and was the starting point of Nathan Road. It was surrounded by shopping, business and entertainment centers.

The embarrassing thing happened. After Gu Weijun got off the minibus, he didn't expect anything and walked directly to the Peninsula Hotel. As a result, he was stopped by the doorman and asked directly in English:

"Sir, how can I help you?"

"Do you have an appointment?"

Gu Weijun was stunned. Damn it, I have never enjoyed treatment abroad. How the hell am I enjoying it on my first day in Hong Kong?

Gu Weijun originally wanted to speak directly to him in Mandarin, but then he thought about it, he was just an ordinary doorman. He was just working and making ends meet, so why bother? If you want to find the inflator, you should also go to his boss!

Then he replied in English, "My girlfriends live here and I'm here to see them."

"What? I can't even get in?"

"Or do you hope to get a complaint from a wealthy foreign man?"

The doorman's face immediately turned pale with fright, "No, sir!"

"I just want to serve you?"

"Please come over here. The phone at the front desk can notify your lover."

At this time, Gu Weijun switched back to Mandarin, with a slight smile on his face, "Little comrade, this is right!"

"What? Are you looking down on me just because I'm wearing a Chinese tunic suit?"

"Don't you look down on the Chinese just because you work for the British?"

Pointed at the doorman with his finger, "Remember, don't get into trouble."

Then he pointed at himself and said, "Especially those wearing these clothes. Not to mention you, even the Kadoorie family, the owners of this hotel, can't afford to offend you!"

The doorman didn't seem to understand Mandarin, so he continued to express his apology in Cantonese. Gu Weijun felt that he was talking like a duck, and his great reasoning was in vain.

"Tsk!" At this time, a woman wearing jewelery nearby sneered, and cursed in a low voice, "A country bumpkin from the mainland!" Another doorman next to him hurriedly opened the door, and the woman raised her high neck. Went into the hotel.

Oh, there are still people who dare to take the initiative to ask me for trouble?

After the woman entered, Gu Weijun pointed at her figure and asked in English: "Whose family does this woman belong to?"

The doorman turned his head and glanced, his expression changed slightly, and he whispered, "Sir, I don't know." Gu Weijun glanced sideways, shook his head with a smile, and led Comrade Xu into the Peninsula Hotel.

Only when you enter the interior of the Peninsula Hotel can you truly feel the magnificence and dazzling marble floors, thick and tall Roman columns supporting the huge dome, and colorful crystal chandeliers hanging below the painting of the Virgin Mary. There are also oil paintings on the walls, all showing the aura of wealth.

Gu Weijun arrived at the front desk and asked the receptionist to contact Constance and the others in French skillfully. Then he swaggeringly took Comrade Xu to the coffee shop and called the waiter with a snap of his fingers, "Black tea, no milk, no sugar."

"Comrade Xu, what do you want to drink? Is coffee okay?"

Comrade Xu was a little cautious about details, "I can do it."

"OK, do you have Blue Mountain here? Give this gentleman a drink."

"It will be included in the room charge later."

The waiter, who was still showing signs of indifference, immediately calmed down, placed his order and left in a polite manner. He didn't know whether it was because Gu Weijun brought up the Blue Mountain coffee or because the room charge was credited.

After a while, Catherine, Constance and others happily trotted over and kissed Gu Weijun one by one. Not only Comrade Xu, but also everyone in the Peninsula Hotel cafe was stunned.

If they were white, they might not be so surprised. This veneer itself is a European etiquette, but Gu Weijun's face and clothes make it look like he came from the mainland, and Catherine and others are obviously rich European girls. The two correspond to each other. down, it gives people a great sense of fragmentation

And there was more than one kiss, all four European ladies gave them kisses.

Damn it, Gu Weijun became famous among Hong Kong’s wealthy circles right away. Is this a contemporary Lao Ai?

I also want to eat this kind of soft rice.

This is the voice of all the male compatriots present here

After Gu Weijun met with the women, he waved to the waiter to arrange a room for Comrade Xu, "Arrange a guest room for this gentleman! The fee will be charged to this lady's account." Then he said to him: "You can stay in peace, I will follow The company’s phone number.”

After that, while Comrade Xu and everyone in the cafe were stunned, he took the women and left.

Catherine and Constance lived in the presidential suite on the top floor, with a better view. The room was decorated with a European style. There was a butler at the door to serve at any time. After casually instructing the butler to prepare afternoon tea, Gu Weijun and the girls sat on the balcony. Facing Victoria Harbour, you can admire the sea view while expressing your love.

After the butler and the waiters arranged the afternoon tea and handed the tips to send them away, Gu Weijun started to ask more serious questions: "Catherine, Constance, Emma, ​​Mandy, what do you think of Hong Kong?"

"Not bad!" Constance took a sip of black tea. "I really didn't expect Britain to do such a good job in such a small colony? The environment is no worse than some places in France."

"I was worried about the clutter of people in a remote location. For safety reasons, I specially brought a five-person security team."

Gu Weijun smiled and nodded, "It seems that you have only been here for a short time. Hong Kong is still prosperous here, while other places are still in a mess."

"The reason why the British built it is because most of the people here are Chinese, hard-working and the best candidates for workers, and the British made money."

"Otherwise, do you think the British will be kind?"

The women nodded thoughtfully.

Gu Weijun asked them again if they had contacted the Hong Kong Governor to discuss opening a factory after arriving. Constance shook her head and admitted that this matter was of great importance and she had to wait until he arrived before starting.

Gu Weijun nodded with satisfaction, and then discussed matters such as acquiring the land. The key was acquiring the land. The equipment could be dismantled directly from Lyon, France for a period of time, and then gradually replaced with the latest technical equipment after everything was on track.

After reminiscing about old times and talking about business matters, the atmosphere gradually became ambiguous and the temperature gradually rose.

The clothes of Gu Weijun and the girls also fell off one by one.

Gradually roll into a ball.

　I used to work in an American-owned company, and it was difficult to communicate with my colleagues in Hong Kong. My colleagues in sales were okay, and they could communicate in Mandarin when they frequently traveled to the mainland. I called other colleagues in the Hong Kong company, including the front desk, but they couldn't understand Mandarin and could only speak in plastic English.
