Chapter 325 New arrival
After seeing Alexi off politely, Wang Deming lay on the sofa like Ge You.
Although I have been planning in Hong Kong, I have never thought about where to start my real life here?
Of course, this beginning refers to the beginning of career. In terms of life, he had so many US dollars in the bank, and he was also the second largest shareholder of Universal Shipping, the second largest shareholder of Orient Overseas, the second largest shareholder of Huoyexingtang, the second largest shareholder of Cotton and Yarn, etc.
Not to mention the stocks of Hong Kong Land, Wheelock, Hutchison, etc. that he had secretly acquired before, just waiting for the right time to take them all.
There are also long-term investments in Coca-Cola, Gillette, IBM, Intel, etc.
As for his own business, he also has more than a dozen chain Chinese medicine pharmacies in Hong Kong.
He just lay there and did nothing, and decades later he was still included in the rich list.
Alas, life is really as lonely as snow!
After entering this era, to be honest, if you have a golden finger, then coming to Hong Kong for development would definitely be your first choice. We share the same language and culture, and have the mainland behind us. You can make money selling vegetables here, let alone other things?
If you don't have a golden finger, the first choice is to live honestly in the country, wait until the reform and opening up, become a trader, and when you make money, buy a courtyard house or a house, and wait to collect rent, which is the safest choice.
Besides, for those who have been baptized by Hong Kong dramas and influenced by novels, coming to Hong Kong for development is also the first choice. Basically, the paths of development in Hong Kong are almost the same: real estate is the basic plate, followed by stocks, and those with a little brains and ideas can play with high technology.
But it was only the 60s, so it seemed a little too early to start playing with high technology. It was still the age of transistor integrated circuits, and there was no trace of chips. It was not until 71 that Intel launched the 4004, the first microprocessor.
Forget it, I’ll have a good chat with Mr. Huo at the family dinner later this evening.
Wang Deming fell asleep in a daze.
Seeing him sleeping on the sofa, Zhang Shouchun and others immediately lowered their voices and personally took the blanket that Sister Tao brought and covered him with it.
Because they were going to attend a dinner party at the Huo family in the evening, both Tao Jie and Zhang Shouchun had thought of a problem that Wang Deming, a rough old man, had not thought of. So after touring the house and selecting the bedroom on the second floor, they called the tailor shop and shoe shop in Hong Kong and brought the best clothes and shoes made of the best fabrics to the manor.
Also indispensable is teacher Tony
When they said they had chosen their bedrooms, they just picked a room at random. In fact, usually the three of them slept in the master bedroom with Wang Deming, and the children were arranged in a children's room.
It has been like this since they started living with Wang Deming. They sleep alone during their menstrual period, and they definitely cannot let him go at other times.
The tailor and the shoemaker arrived quickly, bringing their apprentices with them in taxis.
Although Zhang Shouchun and others were wearing simple-style Lenin suits, these people did not dare to show any contempt.
It's very simple. People who can live in such a manor can wear whatever they like. Besides, although the styles of the clothes are rigid, the materials are all top-quality plush.
Moreover, the temperament and every gesture of the hostesses show that they come from wealthy families.
Hong Kong at this time was actually experiencing a mixture of the East and the West. Western suits and ties and traditional Eastern jackets and cheongsams with slanting collars were everywhere on the streets.
The tailor and shoemaker who came here turned out to be from Shanghai before the liberation. Their accent made Zhang Shouchun and the others feel close to them.
The reason is also interesting. Because no one in Beijing could make good suits before, Yin Changrong went to Shanghai specially to invite Shanghai tailors to Beijing. They were surprisingly familiar with these people in Hong Kong.
Zhang Shouchun and her colleagues often had their clothes made by Yin Changrong, while Qin Huairu simply worked there and had more contact with tailors in Shanghai.
However, as the conversation deepened, everyone fell silent when talking about the current food problem in the mainland.
After the tailors and shoemakers took the measurements, they hurried to modify the ready-made clothes and shoes. I don't know if it was because the three of them were used to wearing Lenin suits, but the clothes they chose for the banquet were all Western-style women's suits. Of course, women's suits in this era were small suits on the upper body and skirts on the lower body.
After choosing their outfits, the three of them flipped through the hairstyle book to choose a hairstyle. The three of them now did not have short hair that reached their ears, also known as the Hu Lantou, but either had braids or big waves that they had permed at the Silian Barber Shop.
At that time, there was nothing new about hairstyles in Hong Kong, and women's hairstyles were just various big waves and small waves.
Just when they wanted to perm their hair into big waves, Wang Deming woke up.
I was speechless and immediately gave them advice: "Big waves are too vulgar, and your hair is so unkempt like a poodle. Have you forgotten how to use a hairpin?"
"Xiao Ru doesn't know, and Shou Chun and Yu Qing don't know either? Where is the jade hairpin I gave you? Comb your hair and curl it a little bit, and put it in with the hairpin. It looks smart and capable while also showing the feminine beauty. Isn't it much better than big waves?"
"Hey, big waves are popular, okay?" Zhang Shouchun retorted unconvinced.
"Hey, do people like you need to follow the trends out there? Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable."
"Okay, let's try it first. But what about the big waves I got in Beijing?"
"Well, Shouchun, you keep the big waves, Yuqing, use the method I told you, Xiaoru, you can do whatever you want and see the effect. Anyway, I think you look good with braids."
The three girls looked at each other and were speechless. As the saying goes, women are proud to be pleased by the men they love, but the key is whether Wang Deming feels good about it.
The three girls immediately followed Wang Deming's instructions. Zhang Shouchun had big waves on her hair, paired with a lace shirt, a light brown women's suit, and a pink diamond pendant, transforming herself into an urban business beauty.
Jin Yuqing tied up her long hair and fixed it with a jade hairpin, revealing her slender jade goose neck, and put on a string of jade beads, which made her look more feminine and gentle.
Qin Huairu tied her braids again, put her hair up, pinned it with a mutton-fat jade hairpin, and wore a pearl necklace and pearl earrings, which made her look even more charming.
Tsk tsk, it’s really better for lesbians to have both good looks and makeup. How can you tell that she is a woman from the northern capital?
After Wang Deming's passive comments, the three women finally let him go with satisfaction. The key point was that the car to pick them up had arrived.
There were still four Mercedes-Benz cars that brought them from Guangzhou. Wang Deming had one for himself, and the other three women each had one with their children. Except for Yu Qing, each of them had a maid to help take care of the children.
By the way, the children also chose their clothes under the arrangement of Tao Jie and Bai Ma. The eldest, An Ning, changed into a flowery dress, and the two young masters both wore small suits and bow ties. Uh, they were already crotchless pants.
A few minutes later, they arrived at the Huo residence. Mr. Huo, his wife and children were waiting at the door to welcome them as usual.
After Wang Deming and Shouchun got off the car, Mr. Huo laughed and hugged him: "Deming, now that you have come to live in Hong Kong, we brothers will definitely be more invincible together!"
"Haha, Brother Dong, I want to ask you for advice today on where to start developing this business."
"Haha, we have plenty of time, let's chat slowly!"
