Era: I have a two-world door

Chapter 300: If you can’t afford to buy one, you have to rent one

PS: After struggling for a long time, I decided to write as before. It is inevitable to become bigger and stronger in the future, but now I still want to write about some ordinary little people, otherwise the pace will be too fast.

I bought a lot of books and found that the housing prices at that time were actually not cheap.

If it's millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions, it feels meaningless.

In those years, there were many people in Hong Kong with annual incomes of tens of millions, but they were all people with a lot of historical accumulation.

…………

When Wang Qingsong left the place, he was already yawning.

Four or five trucks of stuff were transported one by one, and it was already early in the morning when everything was done.

This further strengthened the idea of ​​setting up a warehouse.

Get things ready in advance so you can save time, put the things in place, and then just bring people over to look at the goods.

I quietly returned to the hotel I had rented before and went to sleep.

……

The next morning, just after daybreak, he headed straight towards Central. He had to transfer ownership today, and he also had to come back here for something.

Because we have to get up early.

So he got up a little earlier today.

However, the pace of life in Hong Kong Island is very fast, and there are already many people walking on the streets just after dawn.

The breakfast shop is also open.

I rode my bike to the ferry, and saw a huge crowd of people gathered there, waiting to cross the river.

Wang Qingsong looked at the sea.

I know that it will take another ten years to complete the construction of the earliest tunnel in Hong Kong Island.

The area he was in was occupied by passengers.

Not far away is a large parking lot where vehicles are also queuing to cross the river.

Many fishing boats have set out in the river and are moving forward in scattered patterns on the surface of the river.

It took nearly another hour before I got off the ferry and stepped onto the ground in Central.

I rode my bike back to the place where I bought it.

Got up to the eighth floor.

Knocked lightly on the door.

After a while the door was opened.

"Brother Xuan!"

It was Li Siying who opened the door and called out to him sweetly when she saw him.

After Wang Qingsong came in, he looked around the room.

At this time, there was a tattered square table, two wooden benches, and some scattered wooden barrels, brooms and other things in the main room.

The lights have been installed.

The doors of the room, kitchen and bathroom have not been installed yet, so you can directly see the scene inside.

The one near the balcony was left untouched.

In the small room next door there was an old wooden bed, and the bedding did not look very new.

It must have been bought from Taobao.

In the kitchen, there was a coal stove with an aluminum kettle boiling water on it.

"Axuan!"

Inside the room, Li Sichen came out and shouted at him.

Wang Qingsong smiled and said, "Are you used to it? What are you doing?"

"Oh, the bed was a little unstable, so I fixed it."

Li Sichen looked at the inner room, smiled and said, "I'm used to it! I never thought I could live in an apartment in my life. I'll just have to wait until the toilet is ready."

Wang Qingsong looked around.

He nodded slightly, saying that it would take more than one day to fix the toilet.

There is also a wooden urine bucket in the toilet for temporary use.

At least life is okay.

Then he said, "You'll get used to it. Go make a phone call and ask him to come over. We have something to do in Kowloon this afternoon."

Li Sichen didn't ask anything.

He agreed and went downstairs to make a phone call.

Wang Qingsong glanced at Li Siying who was a little restrained beside him, thought for a moment and said, "How about this, let's all go down, eat something, and wait for someone. If someone comes, your sister should not go, and stay at home."

Seeing this, Li Sichen thought about it and agreed.

The three of them went downstairs together.

When you go downstairs, there is a breakfast shop next to it.

Li Sichen went to make a phone call.

Wang Qingsong took Li Siying to the side and ordered three servings of rice rolls and some breakfast, and sat there waiting.

After the people left, he looked at Li Siying who was a little restrained and said with a smile: "Why? Are you so scared of me? I don't eat people."

This made Li Siying laugh, and she quickly explained, "No... I am... I am..."

I'm a little embarrassed to say it out loud.

Seeing her expression, Wang Qingsong could understand.

After all, the two of them had no place to stay and eat, and they felt a bit like dependents, and he was a man.

I heard that women in Guangzhou are more conservative, even more conservative than those in the mainland.

In her, one can see the shadow of Axia.

Looking at the rice noodle rolls that had just been served, he smiled and said, "You eat first. I'll wait for your brother. We have something to talk about."

Seeing this, Li Siying looked at her brother who was talking on the phone in the distance.

He didn't refuse and started eating quietly.

Wang Qingsong took a steamed dumpling and started eating it. Many of the foods here are steamed in bamboo steamers.

Some he knew, some he didn't.

Anyway, just try a little of everything.

After a while, Li Sichen came back, sat down and said, "Mr. Huang will be a little late, about half an hour."

"Well, that's just right. We've already eaten and it's almost time for us to get here. There's no need to be so anxious."

After Wang Qingsong finished speaking, he muttered to him, "By the way, when I go to the law firm later, can you help me ask if they will take the job in Kowloon? I will rent a warehouse there. Ask them if they know anything about the situation there."

Li Sichen was puzzled for a moment; "Rent a warehouse?"

"Well, it may not be renting, maybe buying, we'll see how it goes then!"

Wang Qingsong said it casually.

This is not acceptable as I spend several hours every day on the way to deliver goods.

You must have a warehouse. Even if you can't afford to buy one, you have to rent one.

Longxiang Road is his ideal location.

The garden houses there are only 35 square feet.

As for Longxiang Road, is it a bit far?
He feels this is not very far away!
The three of them had their meal and waited there for a while, then Mr. Huang drove back here.

After letting Li Siying go home, the two of them followed each other in a car to the Housing Authority and spent a whole morning transferring the house.

The two of them also went to the law firm and found the law firm that could help them with the formalities.

The other party does all kinds of business.

But I am not very familiar with Kowloon. As for the place Wang Qingsong asked about, it belongs to the New Territories.

Not in Kowloon.

There are basically no customers here like there.

Fortunately, the other party also gave him some information.

That’s the price at a nearby warehouse.

There are regulations in Hong Kong Island that the price of industrial land is one-third cheaper than residential land. The price of a warehouse here is around RMB 110 per square foot.

But the problem is that this is Central, which is naturally the most expensive place in Hong Kong, and there are not many warehouse sites approved for use.

Moreover, the warehouses here are basically owned by large British companies. They were not sold before when the occupancy rate was only 30%, and they are even less likely to be sold now due to the real estate boom.

Only for rent, not for sale.

It can be said that it is priceless.

Unless the circumstances are special, you basically can't buy a warehouse for sale here.

Therefore, if you want to buy a warehouse in the Central area, you have to rely on luck.

However, there are some warehouses for sale in the mountainous areas or Repulse Bay.

The price is around 70 or 80 yuan per square foot.

As for Lung Cheung Road which Wang Qingsong mentioned was a bit far away, the other party recommended Kwun Tong in Kowloon, Tsuen Wan in the New Territories and Chai Wan Road on Hong Kong Island.

Hong Kong Island transformed from a trade transit city to a light industrial city.

Therefore, the land prices in these three industrial zones are very cheap.

Moreover, transportation is convenient and the main roads are well built.

The industrial zones in other places were all approved in the past. The locations are indeed good, but the prices are very expensive.

Also rarely sold.

After listening to the other party's advice, Wang Qingsong walked out of the law firm's building holding a business card.

As for the business card, it was not from the lawyer just now.

Instead, she was a junior of the other party in Kowloon, but she worked in another law firm and was more familiar with Kowloon and the New Territories.

"how to do?"

After coming out, Li Sichen asked him a question.

Wang Qingsong smiled and said, "Put your sister to bed. Let's go to the other side. I don't know if I can come back today. Please let your sister take care of herself."

Hong Kong Island is a mess.

But more than half of the people living in Central are foreigners.

Because Chinese people were not allowed to live here in the past, the public security here is relatively the best in the whole of Hong Kong Island.

Of course, it is relative.

Li Sichen naturally agreed.

After the landlord completed the transaction and received the money, he ran away directly, as if he was going to play the stock market.

Wang Qingsong also checked the stocks.

I also want to make some quick money.

Unfortunately, there is no information about the stock market at that time on the Internet. The only general idea is that the Hong Kong stock market has been hot in recent years.

He doesn't understand this at all.

Naturally I wouldn't do these things.

There are obviously many more taxis in Hong Kong Island than in Kowloon.

I took a taxi and went straight back.

After making arrangements with Li Siying, the couple boarded the ferry back to Kowloon.

Back in Kowloon, as recommended by Lawyer Huang, the two came to Victoria Harbour.

This was also the first time that Wang Qingsong came here up close.

The houses here are similar to those across the street. It is very prosperous and is the most prosperous place in Kowloon Island and the New Territories.

“Is this the Peninsula Hotel?”

The two passed by the Peninsula Hotel and looked at it curiously?
Li Sichen asked Wang Qingsong there.

Wang Qingsong rolled his eyes: "You ask me, who should I ask? I just got here too, just half a day earlier than you."

These words made Li Sichen smile.

Then he said, "This seems to be the most upscale hotel in Hong Kong Island. I heard that the most luxurious suite costs three or four hundred yuan a day. Ordinary people can't afford it at all!"

Wang Qingsong nodded.

indeed.

Living here is a status symbol.

Three or four hundred is already a very high income in Hong Kong Island. Most ordinary people cannot get this salary, but it is just enough for one day's rent.

Those who can get this salary are lawyers, doctors, drivers or managers.

Of course, bosses and the like don’t count.

Then he joked, "When you have money in the future, you can live here as your home." Li Sichen took it as a joke.

Continue to rush towards the destination.

In an office building on Nathan Road, I found the lawyer recommended by Lawyer Huang: Du Wanting.

The other person was wearing a black suit and had his hair tied up, looking very capable.

He looks pretty good with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and an oval face.

When the three met, they knew that the other party was recommended by Lawyer Huang, and they were very enthusiastic.

Brought the two of them to the reception room.

After a brief chat, I found out that they had just come from the mainland.

Then he changed to Cantonese and said with a smile: "Mr. Wang, my family used to be from the mainland, this is also a kind of fate!"

Wang Qingsong listened to the accent, thought for a moment and asked, "Ms. Du, are you from Shanghai? How can you be a lawyer here?"

I've heard this accent at the Canton Fair.

"Yup!"

Du Wanting made a cup of tea for them and said with a smile: "Yes~..."

Then I explained it a little bit.

After listening, Wang Qingsong understood why.

Du Wanting's family used to be from Shanghai. Her mother went to study in the UK and after returning, she taught at a women's normal school in Shanghai.

Therefore, Du Wanting had the conditions to learn both Chinese and English since she was young.

After liberation, their family came here.

That’s why I can keep up with the all-English teaching here.

After chatting for a while, Wang Qingsong didn't waste any time.

Tell the other party your requirements.

That is to rent a warehouse nearby, the distance can be appropriately far, but not too far.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a little smaller, but it must be a stand-alone building.

Many of the warehouses here are in three- or four-story buildings.

The reason for asking this.

This is also because all transactions in Hong Kong have to go through law firms, so law firms basically do everything.

Many people left the message at the law firm.

It can be considered as a disguised intermediary.

After listening to his explanation, Du Wanting was thinking about it.

"Please wait a moment, I'll go take a look!"

After that, he stood up and left.

The two waited there quietly.

After a while, the other party came over with a folder: "Mr. Wang, according to your request, I found a few, would you like to take a look?"

Put the things on the table and then introduce them.

"This is in an old industrial area at the foot of King's Hill. It has two floors. The area of ​​one floor is 2250 square feet. The monthly rent is HK$0.8 per square foot. The monthly rent for the two floors is HK$3600... This is on Prince Edward Road..."

After listening to it, Wang Qingsong said directly: "King's uncle, is it the one next to Yau Ma Tei?"

That was the place where he had done business with Zhu Rourong before.

2250 square feet, which is about 200 square meters, is not too small.

"Yes, that's right there!"

After listening, Wang Qingsong nodded slightly and said directly: "Can I take a look at this place?"

If it's there, it doesn't matter what size.

At least the concealment is very good.

There is still some distance between the factories.

And there is greenery inside, which is generally good.

This made Du Wanting hesitate for a moment: "Is that all? Don't you want to see the others?"

"Let's take a look at this first."

It's too much trouble, it's almost enough.

Hearing him say this, Du Wanting didn't force it and agreed.

The other party went to contact someone.

After a while, Du Wanting came back and said to him, "We have contacted him. Mr. Gao is busy in his factory. You can go over and take a look."

Wang Qingsong didn't want to waste time either.

Agree.

He asked Li Sichen to pay the service fee, asked for the address and phone number, and then left.

After coming out, I found a taxi at the door and took it directly there.

The place is only 2.5 kilometers away from Victoria Harbour. If you go north on Nathan Road, you will reach King's Hill.

After a while, the car arrived near our hotel and continued on its way.

I came to the factory where I had the previous transaction again, and saw a factory building on the main road.

Pay and get off.

Li Sichen went to the factory to call people.

After a while, a man with big gold teeth came out of the factory.

The few of them exchanged pleasantries again.

Then, under the leadership of Big Gold Teeth, they walked towards the hillside.

The mountain is not very high, only a few dozen meters.

Walking along the repaired dirt road, we saw a big gate halfway, which was the location of the factory.

Open the door and go in. It’s not too desolate inside.

The previous tenant of this house had moved out only about a month or two ago.

Seeing this, Wang Qingsong was very satisfied.

This is on the road going up a hill. The woods on both sides are very dense, and it is completely disconnected from the previous factory and the factory down the hill.

Standing at the door, you can't see any other factories at all.

After entering, there is a large flat area, which has been renovated. The platform is about 100 square meters.

There are many sheds built in the yard.

Standing on the platform, you can see pedestrians and vehicles at the foot of the mountain, and you can also see a corner of the factory area vaguely visible at the foot of the mountain.

Maybe the place wasn't cleaned properly after the previous person left, so it's a bit messy.

The house is a cement house and it was built about ten years ago.

It's not too broken, but the tiles look like they've been exposed to the wind and sun and are not in good condition.

Water and electricity are both available, they have just been suspended. If the transaction is completed, water and electricity will be supplied, but you have to pay for it yourself.

The other party took the two of them inside for a walk.

There are stairs leading upstairs both inside and outside.

Both the upstairs and downstairs are large flats, supported only by some pillars, but they are divided into several areas, which should have been left by previous people.

It's much the same upstairs.

There is also a rooftop with a water tower on it.

After watching it, Wang Qingsong felt very satisfied. It was concealed enough and the size was enough.

The yard at the door can accommodate several large trucks.

well.

It's just a little dirty.

It was decided immediately.

The contract was signed for one year, and I paid half a year's rent and two months' deposit first.

Three years.

In about three years at most, the housing prices here will plummet to only a quarter of the current price. By then, many warehouses, factories and shops will be sold at low prices.

Besides, he doesn't have much money here now, so there is no need to buy a warehouse.

But this location is really good, only two or three kilometers away from Victoria Harbour and one of the future prosperous areas.

It's so hidden here.

If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely buy this house.

The rent cannot be cheaper, but the other party agreed to find someone to clean the place.

Wang Qingsong didn't bother about it.

He first gave them one thousand yuan and asked them to find someone to clean up the place, and then went down the mountain.

The big gold tooth in the middle is there to guarantee that if there are any difficulties, you can ask him to solve them.

What this means is that he has connections in both the black and white worlds.

After the deal is reached, you naturally have to go to the law firm to sign the contract and pay the money.

The other party had a car and took the two of them there.

The signing of the contract is also very quick, and there are templates available.

The transaction was completed very quickly, and the rent and lawyer fees were paid.

At least from now on, the house will temporarily belong to him.

After separating from Da Jin Ya, the two returned to the factory.

At this time, there are many people busy here, and most of them are female workers, of varying ages.

"Hey, Xuan, I think it's better for us to move here. This is a big house, we can do a lot of things!"

Li Sichen looked at the factory area and muttered to himself.

Wang Qingsong nodded. Indeed, such a large house is very suitable for use as a factory.

The garment industry in Hong Kong Island is now quite developed and can be said to be the pillar industry of Hong Kong Island, accounting for more than 60% of the total industrial output value of Hong Kong Island.

There are nearly 100,000 garment factories.

However, in many cases, three or five people spend a few thousand dollars to set up a small workshop.

It can be considered a factory.

Even so, there are still tens of thousands of formal garment factories.

This does not include textile factories and the like.

It can be said that six out of ten people in Hong Kong are related to the textile industry, which shows how prosperous the textile industry is in Hong Kong Island.

No one cared about these female workers.

Instead, he looked at Li Sichen and said, "Don't do anything else these days. Just go to Hong Kong Island and take a look at what industry is making money. Come back and tell me."

His original intention was to use this place as a warehouse and put some things there in advance.

Then sell slowly.

Take some time to come and have a look yourself.

But there is a problem here, that is, I put so many things here and let Li Sichen take care of them.

If this guy swallows the goods, all my work will be in vain.

After all, these things of mine are not from regular channels.

Hearing this, Li Sichen thought about it and he still didn't know what Wang Qingsong was going to do.

But he saw it.

Wang Qingsong is really rich.

I spent over 100,000 yuan today alone.

Then he agreed: "Okay! I'll go and take a look when the time comes!"

Wang Qingsong nodded when he saw this: "Okay, let's go back. We've been here for a few days, but we haven't had a good look around here yet. Let's go out for dinner tonight and visit the night market here..."

As for the hygiene here, someone will naturally clean it.

He can just come back and take a look when the time comes.

But at this time he quietly took out the Bagua mirror, frowned and thought about something.

But looking at Li Sichen next to him, he finally put it away quietly.

PS: I'm going to take a day off tomorrow, just in time to sort out my thoughts. Sorry
