Chapter 82 childhood sweethearts
Li Ling had all kinds of materials of this era in his mind. After thinking for a while, he remembered more than a dozen Hong Kong Islanders who graduated from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Public Schools.

All stars.

Xu Zishan, Li Huimin, Lin Feng... They are all too young now, and they haven't even gone to middle school yet.

Wang Mingquan...has graduated for many years, and is now very popular.

Guan Shuyi, Liu Jialing... have all graduated. The Jiangsu and Zhejiang Association has built four middle schools in Hong Kong. They are enrolled in the "North Point Jiangsu and Zhejiang Public School". North Point is on Hong Kong Island. Ten miles away.

This famous mainland girl has graduated from Jiangsu and Zhejiang Public School in North Point. In November last year, she applied for TVB's entrance examination and successfully stood out.

In January this year, she enrolled in the 12th artist training class, and she will soon make her screen debut in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Once a celebrity debuts, they all pay attention to ostentation, and their social circle is tight, so it is quite difficult to meet.

Who else?

Li Ling continued to think, and there was only one star left.

Li Ruotong.

"Huh? This sister graduated from Shatian Jiangsu and Zhejiang Public School?"

Li Ruotong is the old dragon girl in the 95 edition of "Sculpture of the Gods". According to the information, she is a student of the middle school next to her. She was born in 1967. She is 16 years old this year and is in the fourth grade.

If history did not change, she would have graduated from the preparatory course in 1986 without applying for university, and was directly admitted to Cathay Pacific Airways as a flight attendant in the same year, and debuted in the entertainment circle in 1990.

Li Ling checked the time. It was only 10:30 in the morning. Li Ling picked up the newspaper and began to read the recent news.

Pick out Ming Pao first.

Today's date is Friday, May 1983, 5.

The headline used a bold exclamation point: "How long will the house price fall!"

The editorial gives detailed data:
"Since the outbreak of the global economic crisis at the end of the 70s, housing prices on Hong Kong Island have continued to fall for three consecutive years. The floor price of industrial land in Kowloon Bay, Kwun Tong District has dropped from the highest price of 1980 yuan per square foot in December 12 to the current 360 yuan. The drop was as high as 21%.

"The floor price of high-end commercial and residential land on Nanwan Road, Hong Kong Island has dropped from the highest price of 1500 yuan per square foot to the current 390 yuan, a drop of up to 74%."

"Happy Valley, Ho Man Tin, Stanley, Victoria Peak, Repulse Bay, the market prices of almost all residential areas on Hong Kong Island have been cut in half, with an average drop of 50.00%."

"The market is in a downturn and the buildings are vacant, and China and the UK are starting sovereignty negotiations. The prospects are unclear, and the business of large and small immigration companies has skyrocketed..."

After browsing through, Li Ling snorted. In any developed city, housing prices have plummeted into the abyss, and they all collapsed immediately. What a developed city!
He also took out the "Sing Tao Daily", which is good at finance and economics, and the current stock market is also not optimistic:

“1981年7月港岛股市恒生指数上涨至历史最高1810.2点,年底以1405.8点收盘,全年微跌4.6%。”

"In 1982, the Hang Seng Index went downhill and closed at 783.8 points at the end of the year, a sharp drop of 44.2% for the whole year."

"This year, the stock market is troubled by the future of Hong Kong Island. The Hang Seng Index fluctuates between 676 points and 970 points. The Sino-British negotiations have made progress, and the index has risen in time; the negotiations have reached an impasse, and the index has fallen sharply, with erratic and huge fluctuations. Unless the negotiations come to an end, there will be no peace on Hong Kong Island..."

Seeing this, Li Ling's mind suddenly became active. The stock market crashed, wouldn't it be a godsend opportunity to buy the bottom?

But buying bottom requires a lot of capital, otherwise the income will be very low. He needs to get a sum of money first, and then play the stock market with sufficient funds.

Next, he watched the "Hong Kong Island Commercial Daily", which has a left-leaning stance. Today's editorial mainly revolves around the exchange rate:

"Three years ago, the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Hong Kong dollar was 4.976; the next year it depreciated by 5.589%, and the average exchange rate was [-]."

"The Hong Kong dollar depreciated by 6.086% last year, with an average exchange rate of [-]."

"This year's depreciation is even greater. As of yesterday, May 5, the exchange rate was 5, and the depreciation has exceeded 7.375%."

"Speculation in foreign exchange has led to soaring prices and panic buying. The existing floating exchange rate system is obviously outdated. It is imminent to introduce suppression policies as soon as possible. If the authorities are helpless to solve the problems of people's livelihood, please step down and return home as soon as possible..."

Li Ling read more than a dozen newspapers in a row, and found that the front pages were all related to the economic situation and Sino-British negotiations. The only entertainment news that focused on it was the Miss Hong Kong beauty pageant final two days later. The actress is about to debut.

The situation on Hong Kong Island is sluggish this year, and the citizens are in panic, staring at their money bags.

The stock market fell.

The housing market collapsed.

The Hong Kong dollar depreciated sharply.

In 1983, Hong Kong Island was in the midst of an economic crisis, but Li Ling knew very well that when the Sino-British negotiations were concluded in December next year, the market would immediately stabilize and give rise to a round of explosive growth.

It wasn’t until the global stock market crash in 1987 that the economy weakened again, but the property market in that year was still strong. From next year onwards, housing prices on Hong Kong Island will climb to a new level every year, and the bull market will last for more than ten years.

Li Ling read it very enthusiastically, and the newsstand owner didn't rush him when he came over, and just looked at a dirty magazine by himself.

This is a big fat man with lustful eyes. On the cover of the magazine is a busty girl, revealing a whole body of white flesh, so little clothes!

Li Ling took a few glances, wondering who is this boba sister?It seemed unfamiliar, but he couldn't remember it all the time.

Lin Baozai was also peeking, almost nosebleed, and there was a shock like a lightning strike in his heart. He has lived to be 13 years old, and he has never seen what a woman in a swimsuit looks like. Chu Ge is like this bird.

The fat man looked at him, raised the magazine in his hand, pointed at the big busty, and smiled wickedly:

"Little pretty boy, do you know her? Sister Yiman, Shaw's new meatball, acted in the salty and wet drama "Fragrant Beauty" at the beginning of the year. It was super explosive. The seventh edition also published a real soldier. How about a copy?"

Lim Po Tsai's head 'hum! With a sudden explosion, he lowered his head like a thief, how dare he speak up.

"Don't peek, kid!" Li Ling patted Lin Baozai on the head.

Baozai bowed his head and said nothing, Li Ling asked the boss: "Fat guy, what magazine is this?"

""Sapphire"! The top-ranked salty weekly in Hong Kong Island, only charges you five yuan. The great talent Ni Kuang, alias Hong Xin, serialized the hot novel "Flying with the Immortal Hand" in the third edition. I guarantee you will enjoy it! "The fat man immediately retweeted the sales target.

"Ni Kuang? A talented man who writes salty novels? He's so cheap!" Li Ling curled his lips. He didn't have the slightest affection for this yellow-skinned and white-hearted banana man.

"As long as the remuneration is high, it doesn't matter if it's cheap to the bone, and integrity can't be eaten!" Fatty's point of view is very insightful.

"Five yuan is too expensive, I'll only buy it for five cents!" Li Ling began to bargain.

"Five pennies? It's only enough to buy a cover! Pretty boy, I think you are handsome and handsome, and you need a big busty to cultivate your sentiments. I will give you a discount, [-] yuan! Only [-] yuan! Iman Sister's original photo is yours!"

"Cultivate sentiment? Fat guy, you are so eloquent, why don't you host "Happy Tonight"?" Li Ling was amused, and he gave the bus driver's comment to Fatty, which added to his own feelings.

"You and Sister Fei are a perfect match. I support you as a comedy star, and I will give you a discount for your future loyal movie fans. How about it?"

"Deadly loyal? For your two words, I will deduct another two cents from you, four yuan and six!"

"Give me four!"

"Go to six! I'll sell you for a fixed price!"

You are paralyzed, shouldn't magazines be sold at a fixed price?Li Ling despises his black heart!

Picking out a few more newspapers, he went to the school gate to look for Lin Baozai.

Seeing him holding the magazine in his hands, Lin Baozai asked with a sullen face, "Brother Ah Ling, can I read it?"

"No problem." Li Ling joked, "Bao Zai, have you ever been in love in your hometown?"

"I'm popular with girls!" Lin Baozai braggingly said:
"Brother Ah Ling, my mother sends money back to the mainland every month. I am the richest man in the school. My principal is not as rich as my family. My teacher is very kind to me. My classmates all chase me to play with me. The female classmates in the same class have dated and even held hands!"

"Hey, have you held my little hand? I can't tell that you are a hidden little lover!"

"I don't dare to be a love saint, I am competitive at best!" Lin Baozai shy.

"I said that I am so powerful, now that the girls are out of school, why don't you go find someone to strike up a conversation with!"

Lin Baozai turned his head and saw that Wu Yaya was full of young, beautiful and beautiful girls. He was stunned, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't move a step.

"Go!" Li Ling pushed him, "What are you doing in a daze? Don't be a man, just do it! Go!"

"No, Brother Ah Ling, I, I, sometimes have a thin skin!" Lin Baozai scratched his ears, blushing, hesitating.

"You let me brew a brave mood, or I will make a joke!" He lowered his head and thought hard, where is my courage hidden?Liang Jingru, please give me some courage! !
Li Ling stopped teasing him, and asked with a smile, "To be honest, did you take the initiative to hold your classmate's hand, or did your classmate hold your hand instead?"

Lin Baozai was coy, and answered honestly: "We have known each other since elementary school. She held my hand first. I refused to let her do it, but she did it! Before I came to Hong Kong Island, she went to my uncle's house to find me, and asked me to give it to me. She writes."

"Then you must remember to write." Li Ling began to educate him, "A good sister from childhood is too rare, you must cherish her."

Lin Baozai was ignorant, and he was ashamed to talk about such things, "Brother Ah Ling, I don't want to brag anymore, I don't want to strike up a conversation!"

"Brother was just joking with you. I remember that when I have a chance to go back to my hometown and chase your childhood sweetheart back." Li Ling beckoned him to leave, "Let's go, have a meal, and send you home."

For some reason, Li Ling felt a little uncomfortable. Damn, I don't even have a childhood sweetheart, so sad!so poor! !
