Hong Kong 1980: The Savage Era

Chapter 31 031 [Exposed? ]

"It's just to make a living, not as much as you guys who work in securities." Luo Qihong felt that this topic was too boring, so he changed it, "You were probably forced to come here, right?"

Bai Jinyan was slightly stunned, then smiled politely and said, "I don't like this kind of occasion, but I can't refuse my father's request."

"We are all the same, wanderers in this world! We are so young, yet we have fallen to this point." Luo Qihong complained.

Bai Jinyan's mouth slightly raised, revealing a sincere smile, "Why do you reject blind dates? Is it because your family forces you to do so?"

Luo Qihong thought for a moment and said, "Not entirely. I think I will find someone I like and I don't want to waste too much time and energy. What about you?"

"My idea is to make more money while I'm still young," Bai Jinyan responded.

The two walked side by side, asking and answering each other, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

The Bai family's residence was located in the Ngau Tau Kok area next to Kowloon Bay, not very far away, so it was not until nearly 10 o'clock in the evening that the Bai father and daughter took a taxi home.

Kowloon Bay Law House

The Luo family gathered together and sat in the open space in front of the door, where they could see the starry sky.

Lin Ya was the first to bring up the topic, "Ah Hong, what do you think of Xiaoyan? Do you like her?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Luo Qihong, making him feel a little embarrassed.

Luo Qihong didn't know how to answer. If he said he didn't like it, he would definitely be criticized. If he said he liked it, neither of them would feel attracted to it.

"It's okay. It's hard to say whether we like each other or not when we meet for the first time. We still need to get to know each other." Luo Qihong answered tactfully.

"To tell you the truth, your father and I both like Xiaoyan. She's the daughter of Chengbo, the same age as you, but one month older than you, so she's just the right match." Lin Ya ignored Luo Qihong's euphemistic expression and pressured Luo Qihong to take the initiative as if giving an order.

Hong Kong people are more particular about old rules. They believe that when a man and a woman of the same age get married, the woman must be older than the man. Otherwise, it is considered unlucky and bad things will happen.

Luo Qihong used the excuse of taking a shower to avoid the trial, but Lin Ya's voice kept following him.

In fact, Bai Jinyan is a nice girl, and Luo Qihong also has a good impression of her, but since he has traveled through time, of course he wants to make money and pick up girls. He will consider getting married only when he is tired, so he doesn't want to delay others.

Friday, October 12

As soon as the store opened, it welcomed a familiar uninvited guest who looked very anxious.

"Ah Hong, has anyone come to you to talk about Yiren Real Estate Company recently?" Lin Luoqi came in and asked Luo Qihong directly.

Luo Qihong was confused and replied, "No! What's wrong? What happened?"

Guan Jiahui, who was putting on makeup, would glance at him from time to time. She knew Lin Luoqi and knew that Lin Luoqi was the former boss of Hehong Real Estate Company and was a good friend of Luo Qihong.

Hearing this, Lin Luoqi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, slowly sat down, and briefly explained the whole story.

It turned out that Lin Luoqi's elder brother Lin Luoxun and second brother Lin Luoshi had said some inexplicable things to him, which made him worry that the acquisition of Yiren Real Estate Company had been leaked, so he hurried over to ask Luo Qihong.

Lin Luoxun and Lin Luoshi have the same father and mother, but their mother died many years ago. After that, Lin Luoqi's mother Xu Jiawen married his father Lin Zuhui. Now the family company is controlled by Xu Jiawen, Lin Luoxun and Lin Luoshi. Among them, the Lin twins have the greatest power. Xu Jiawen is relatively weak, but he can occasionally persuade them, so the power of both sides seems to be evenly matched.

"Maybe it's about the previous property sale. You're too sensitive." Luo Qihong consoled.

Lin Luoqi nodded, "Maybe! In order to avoid any trouble, I still have to deal with Yiren Real Estate Company as soon as possible. Are you free today? Let's go and handle the transfer procedures." "Okay! Let's go now!" Luo Qihong didn't want to be disturbed by strangers. Those people were difficult to deal with. It was difficult to deal with them with ease.

"Don't be in a hurry! I'll take a break first." Lin Luoqi's breathing was indeed a little disordered.

A minute later, Lin Luoqi asked again, "Do you have any shares of Yiren Real Estate Company?"

Luo Qihong shook his head. "No, the funds from the land sale have been used to buy a lot of Yongtai Construction Company's shares. You have 41% of the shares on hand, so you don't have to worry about others acquiring Yiren Real Estate Company, right?"

Lin Luoqi sighed slightly and said, "The share price of Yiren Real Estate Company is too low. There are still many scattered shares on the market. If my two brothers rush to grab Yiren Real Estate regardless of the loss, it is not impossible for them to hold a higher share than me."

Luo Qihong felt a little soft-hearted. After all, the hundreds of thousands of capital he had previously invested were earned with the help of Lin Luoqi. Now that Lin Luoqi was in trouble, he still wanted to help.

However, being involved in the internal strife of the Lin family was not what Luo Qihong wanted, and for a moment he felt conflicted and embarrassed.

"Let's do this. By January next year, I can withdraw my funds, and I will help you buy them then. If anything unexpected happens during this period, I will try my best to help," said Luo Qihong.

Lin Luoqi nodded. Luo Qihong did not refuse directly, but also said that he could help at any time. He was already satisfied.

Soon, the two went to the law firm to handle the transfer procedures, and the matter was not completely completed until 12: noon.

At this point, Lin Luoqi officially held 41% of the shares of Yiren Real Estate Company and became the largest private shareholder of Yiren Real Estate Company.

After lunch, the two men parted ways and Luo Qihong went to HSBC to inquire about the share price trend of Hang Lung Group and asked Zhang Taotao to help keep an eye on the stocks of Yiren Real Estate Company.

Back at the North Point shop, Luo Qihong had just sat down when Guan Jiahui came over with a cup of tea.

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!

"Is there something wrong? If you ask about the stock price, I can tell you that Hang Lung's stock price has increased by 2 cents, and you have made 140 yuan." Luo Qihong said expressionlessly. He was thinking about something at the moment and was in no mood to tease Guan Jiahui.

Guan Jiahui noticed that Luo Qihong was not in a good mood, but she was very confident in her beauty, so she moved a little closer to Luo Qihong and said, "I don't want to ask about stocks. How much money did you make from the land you talked about this morning?"

Luo Qihong was a little stunned. What did Guan Jiahui want to do?

"I didn't make much! Just a little money!" Luo Qihong said vaguely. This was not a secret, but he was not clear about Guan Jiahui's purpose for the time being and felt a little nervous.

Guan Jiahui knew Luo Qihong's wariness, and curled her lips and said, "I don't want your money, I just want to know if I can make a lot of money by speculating on land."

Facing Guan Jiahui's coquetry, Luo Qihong didn't feel much, "Speculating in land is not as simple as you think, and you don't have the money to buy a piece of land, so you'd better work honestly and earn money to pay me back."

"Hmph! If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me." Guan Jiahui ran away angrily.

Fenggui Development Company began to focus its attention on North Point Industrial Building and new properties developed by large companies. The latter were pre-sale properties that the head office began to invest in in the early 80s and are now completed and available for sale.

According to the analysis of the circulating information, Fenggui Development Company can earn 3% profit on the pre-sale housing projects, and can also bring a relatively substantial commission income to the branches.

As a result, the pressure on real estate agencies in North Point has been reduced sharply. Most of the energy of luxury agencies has been invested in pre-sale projects and they will not compete with their peers for the old house market business in the short term.

Therefore, Luo Qihong and Guan Jiahui became busy again. In one morning, they brought 6 guests to view houses. Sometimes Luo Qihong was so busy that he even forgot to go to the toilet.
