The birth of the Hong Kong Island family

Lin Zhichao met Bao Chunlai, an agent for mainland products, at the Cheung Kong Industrial Factory in Tsuen Wan.

As soon as they met, Bao Chunlai complained about his grievances.

"I shouldn't have listened to my boss's advice. I almost couldn't return to Hong Kong this time, so I ended up in Shanghai."

Lin Zhichao asked curiously: "What's going on? I remember that you always use gold and foreign currencies for transactions. It's impossible to be damaged by legal currency or gold yuan certificates, right?"

Logically speaking, with his advice, Bao Chunlai could not lose money. This was Lin Zhichao's consideration of his colleagues.

Bao Chunlai sighed, and then said: "It's also my fault that I was too greedy and was caught. It happened to be 'Xiao Jiang went to the magic city to fight tigers', and I was charged with hoarding foreign currency and gold. I was almost arrested." Pull up and shoot him. If I hadn't used the last bit of money to bribe the executive officer, I would have lost it in Shanghaitan, and my wife and children wouldn't know how to survive."

It turns out that in Shanghaitan at this time, hoarding supplies was a major crime, as was hoarding foreign currency and gold. Bao Chunlai only accepted foreign currency and gold, and infringed on the interests of the Shanghaitan handmade zipper manufacturers. It would be unlucky.

"Just come back safely!" Lin Zhichao could only comfort him.

Bao Chunlai's face turned red at this time, and he hesitated before saying: "Boss, I want to find a job with you, just a worker, so that I can support my family."

But he felt very guilty. After all, his boss used to think highly of him, but he only focused on being the boss.

It's better now. I have lost all my assets and still owe a debt. I have to start over.

"What do I think it is? No problem. I just have an errand here. Do you want to see if you are willing to do it?" Lin Zhichao said cheerfully.

Although Bao Chunlai resigned, he did not change jobs, so there was no "betrayal", not to mention that he had expressed his thoughts long ago.

In addition, he was looking for people, and someone like Bao Chunlai who dared to venture in and had a certain vision was exactly what he needed.

"Boss, please tell me, I'm willing to do any errand!" Bao Chunlai said seriously.

At this time, he had completely lost his arrogance, and the idea of ​​being a boss had long since dissipated. After all, he was no longer qualified.

Lin Zhichao nodded and said: "Come to Singapore with me in a few days. I plan to open a branch factory there. So in the future, I would like to invite you to Singapore to manage that branch factory."

Bao Chunlai said immediately: "Thank you, boss, for your support! I will definitely work hard and do my best for the company."

For him, there is no difference between Singapore and Hong Kong. He even wants to stay away from the sad place of the mainland.

"Okay, you will serve as the deputy director of Yangtze Industrial Factory for the time being and learn factory management again from Manager Wang Liang. At the same time, you will also participate in the preparations for the factory in Singapore."

Bao Chunlai has been educated, he is a boss and manager, he is not treacherous, he is a good talent.

"thank you boss"

evening.

When Bao Chunlai returned home, he frowned immediately, because several relatives and creditors had all come, and the cramped small rental house was full of water.

"Chunlai, I heard that you were almost shot and your property was confiscated in the Mainland, right?" Tang sister-in-law asked bluntly.

Bao Chunlai nodded and said, "Yes!"

The cousin-in-law immediately said eagerly: "Then the money you owe our family? That's what we saved with great difficulty. We are usually reluctant to spend an extra penny. If we don't have this money, we will be sick if we get sick or something." I’m going to see the King of Hell.”

For a time, everyone complained one after another, and the meaning was self-evident.

Bao Chunlai's wife hid in a corner, protecting a pair of children, shivering with fear.

"Don't worry, I will definitely pay back the money you owe!"

"What are you going to pay back? You thought it was still when you were the boss, you thought you were still the manager. We calculated and found that you owed a total of almost 3,000 yuan."

"Yes, the salary in Hong Kong is only fifty or sixty yuan now, and it will take five years if you don't eat or drink."

"It's not my destiny to be a boss, but I want to take risks. It's better now! I don't care, you must pay back our family's money. The couple of us only earn 90 yuan a month."

At this moment, Bao Chunlai felt the sadness in the world.

You must know that these people are all called by him from Shanghai Beach to Hong Kong (zipper skilled workers), so they must have friendship.

When he said he could make a fortune, everyone took the initiative to send the money to him.

Fortunately, he just came back, and everyone came to him, and the words were worse than the last.

At the same time, Bao Chunlai thanked the boss for taking him in again.

If it weren't for the boss, he didn't know when he would be able to pay off these debts, and he didn't know how much he had caused his family to suffer.

"That's enough, don't argue! It's just 3,000 yuan. I promise to pay it back in two years."

"You can pay it back if you say you'll pay it back. Do you have any proof?"

"Now that I have found a job, I still work for my original boss. Regardless of the past, he gave me the position of deputy factory director with a monthly salary of 200. Does Cheung Kong Industries know that it has 200 workers in Tsuen Wan and is the largest zipper production factory in Asia? , I am the deputy factory director, I can definitely afford your money."

For a moment, several relatives were stunned.

immediately.

"I just said that Chunlai is a promising person. How can he not be able to pay back the money? You have to come and ask. No, this is a slap in the face!" Cousin-in-law was the first to stand up and said.

As everyone knows, she was the most active just now.

"I didn't. I just came to see Brother Bao. I hope you get back safely!"

Soon, the smoke disappeared and everyone left one after another, leaving nothing to Bao Chunlai to promise. Because they understand that a deputy director of a large factory can not only afford repayment, but he is also considered to be a middle-class person in Hong Kong and cannot be offended.

After Bao Chunlai saw everyone leaving, he quickly comforted his wife and children.

The wife complained: "I told you to do it well, but you had to go through this whole thing. You almost didn't get scolded to death by them just now. Fortunately, Boss Lin doesn't care about the past grudges. You have to do it well in the future!"

Bao Chunlai could only say yes again and again, and it was wrong to harm his family.

"Boss, the price of gold has risen to 405 Hong Kong dollars per tael, and the buying power is very strong!"

When Wang Boyuan received the call, he decisively arranged: "We will buy gold immediately, and we must do it quickly."

"okay, I get it!"

After hanging up the phone, Wang Boyuan showed a trace of bitterness. He estimated that he would not make much money by selling gold short this time; because he sold a lot of gold at less than 400 Hong Kong dollars, and now he needs to buy gold at a high price to close his position.

Otherwise, the longer the delay, the more losses he will suffer, because the mainland gold yuan coupons have begun to depreciate and prices are almost out of control.

By then, the phenomenon of the collapse of legal currency will continue to be realized on gold yuan coupons.

Lin Zhichao came to the Yangtze River Bank and looked thoughtfully at the busy scene on the first floor.

Originally, he opened a bank account just to speculate in gold, but he didn't expect that he was really lucky. The gold trading and foreign currency exchange business in the store was not bad.

At present, one month of store business can already earn 10,000 Hong Kong dollars.

If it develops like this, it is estimated that in the next year, it is possible to earn 20,000 yuan a month. After all, more and more wealthy people are coming to Hong Kong for refuge.

But there is also a problem that comes with it, that is, the problem of safety.

At present, Lin Zhichao has recruited two security guards for Changjiang Bank, and with Lin Zhichao's network background, ordinary people must not dare to make up their minds. However, as the defeated army comes to Hong Kong, some people will take risks. The important thing is that they have guns.

The security measures of the Changjiang Bank are also very good, just like the banks of later generations, but surrounded by iron fences. In addition, the store only stores a small amount of foreign currency and gold, and other properties are stored in the safe on the second floor, and outsiders cannot enter the interior space at all.

For those with guns, of course, there is no solution. After all, if you point at the counter, the teller has to obediently hand over the property on the first floor.

Lin Zhichao shook his head in the end. This kind of risk is nothing, to him, it is just sprinkling water.

When we got upstairs, Lee Shau Kee was also there.

"Boss, now it seems that Shanghai-based gold merchants have also joined in buying gold. The price has risen rapidly, and it has climbed to 408 Hong Kong dollars per tael."

After Lin Zhichao sat down, he said, "As expected! They sold so much gold short, it's no wonder they don't close their positions now."

Lee Shau Kee said with a smile: "Furthermore, prices in the Mainland have risen and gold dollar coupons have depreciated. They are so smart, how can there be such a reason not to buy at the right time."

"So, next we only need to keep an eye on the frequency of Aomen Gold cashing out. The overall trend is an upward trend. But every time they cash out gold, the price will inevitably fall back a little."

"No problem! The telegraph has been installed over there, and we have another information channel."

Changjiang Yinhao leased a 200-square-foot office building nearby, which was specially used to receive information from the radio station, and then handed it over to Lee Shau-kee for reference.

After chatting for a while, Lin Zhichao left.

But Lee Shau Kee is full of confidence and high morale at this time.

He calculated in his mind that the reward share would be distributed in October, and he might be paid 30,000 Hong Kong dollars, because Yangtze River Bank had already earned 500,000 Hong Kong dollars in the third quarter.

As a result, he has been in Hong Kong for less than a year, and his net worth has reached nearly 50,000.

"These days, I am getting more and more hopeful!" Lee Shau-kee said in his heart.

He was very grateful to Lin Zhichao, and the gold speculator boss also had a share of the credit, but he never mentioned it. Instead, he always said that the rewards would be paid out on time.

At the same time, he still has a salary at the store, which is 200 Hong Kong dollars per month, which is very good, and he only needs to go out for gold inspections (large amounts) occasionally.
