Chapter 224: Escape from Hong Kong! (page 12)

Before this, Lin Xiuzhi had never gotten along with domestic employees, and felt that their efficiency must be very slow.

After getting along with each other these days, she found that Tang Yun's personal abilities were very strong, and those part-time employees who joined the Yang Group's Beijing office were also really capable.

Sometimes, Lin Xiuzhi found that she was not as good as Tang Yun and the others.

Tang Yun seems to have adapted to the position of deputy director of the Beijing office now, and does not seem to be very interested in the commission offered by Mr. Yang.

The commission of two thousand yuan is indeed a lot.

However, this is not what Tang Yun wants.

. . .

1978 10 Month 14 Day.

It was the sixteenth day when Yang Ming came to Yanjing.

That night, when Yang Ming saw Mr. Shen coming, he knew he had to go see the old man alone.

During the recent period, Yang Ming went to meet the old gentleman every night.

The two of them met more often and became more familiar with each other.

The old man also admired Mr. Yang's insights even more.

There are still a few days until the old gentleman visits Japan.

The old man knew that it had been nearly half a month since Mr. Yang was invited to Yanjing for the first time. As the chairman of a large group, it was impossible for him to stay in Yanjing for a long time.

Yang Ming went in in a wheelchair.

Obviously, before Yang Ming came, the old gentleman was still smoking.

After Yang Ming arrived, the old man put out his cigarettes in advance and opened the window to let the cold wind outside blow away all the smell of cigarettes.

"Sir."

"Mr. Yang."

The two greeted each other.

When Yang Ming sat down, Mr. Shen went out and closed the door.

"Mr. Yang, I heard that your Yang Group's Beijing office bought many houses in Yanjing."

Those natives in Yanjing are not starting to buy and sell houses privately now.

always have.

Especially last year, it started to appear.

The old gentleman will not interfere in this kind of thing, nor does he want others to interfere.

They want to sell and Mr. Yang wants to buy. As long as the price is right, it is normal for the transaction to be fair and equitable.

The hottest old gentleman was shocked.

Representatives of other wealthy overseas Chinese businessmen who came to Yanjing only stayed for a day at most and then left Yanjing in a hurry, as if they could not leave Yanjing safely if they did not leave as soon as possible.

Mr. Yang?

First, I visited the National History Museum and bought all the calligraphy and paintings from the Foreign Guest Service Department.

It is said that he also donated a large amount of money to the National Museum of History.

Another deal with Rong Baozhai.

Mr. Yang spent millions of RMB, nearly 5 million Hong Kong dollars, to buy thousands of collections from Rongbaozhai, including calligraphy and painting collections.

Five million Hong Kong dollars?

In the opinion of the old man, this is definitely a large amount of foreign exchange.

In other words, Rongbaozhai creates a foreign exchange for the country.

Only when the country gets more foreign exchange can it purchase more foreign technologies and other products.

The old gentleman also very much agrees with these.

The old man also found it strange that many of the calligraphy and paintings by modern painters were still alive. Mr. Yang actually bought them all at any price, making life easier for these modern painters and their families.

They can even continue to create continuously.

The old gentleman couldn't understand these. He felt that Mr. Yang was a capitalist, but not the kind of capitalist he imagined.

In his view, people like Li Jiacheng and Bao Yugang are capitalists.

Are they the same as Mr. Yang?

Of course it's different.

"The old gentleman bought a lot of houses. They wanted to sell them, so I bought them. Before the sale, I had asked the staff to investigate clearly. If there were problems with the houses, we would not buy them, and we did not want to cause any further consequences. a series of questions.”

Some of them were sold because of gambling losses.

Some have the only property in their family and want to sell it secretly.

Also, their family members don’t agree at all.

and many more.

Yang Ming didn't want anything like this.

The old gentleman nodded. He felt that Mr. Yang did a particularly good job in this regard.

No wonder Mr. Yang is so successful in Xiangjiang, there must be his reasons.

Next.

The two started talking about business.

"Mr. Yang, where is your hometown?" the old gentleman asked.

He had thought about it before Yang Ming came.

Sure enough, the old gentleman still mentioned his hometown.

Historically, representatives of Chinese capital in Hong Kong and old gentlemen suggested that they go back to their hometowns to visit, which would trigger their motivation and ideas to change their hometowns and even change a country.

Hu Yingxiang and others returned to Guangdong Province, or even their hometown, and saw the poverty in their hometown, which triggered their inner emotions and love for their hometown.

Take the money and invest it directly.

Especially investments in infrastructure.

Build bridges, build highways, build power stations.

These all require a lot of money.

Now the country simply does not have that much money to invest in this area, so it can only rely on these Chinese capital coming back from Hong Kong.

After the old man got acquainted with Yang Ming, he also wanted to know more about Mr. Yang's hometown.

"Old sir, I didn't know where my hometown was at first. However, my parents mentioned it to me. My father Yang Jirong came to Xiangjiang from Longchuan County in northern Guangdong in the 1950s to develop. In Xiangjiang I met my mother Li Yufang there, and later I was born.”

Yang Jirong came to Hong Kong in the 1950s?

The old gentleman thought of many things.

In the 1950s, 1960s, and even the 1970s, even during this period, there were always people from China, especially those in Guangdong Province, smuggling people to Hong Kong to develop.

Why are they going to Xiangjiang?

Or it’s because the country is too poor, so poor that they can’t even support themselves.

In China, ordinary farmers now don’t have enough to eat, and they don’t even have a few dollars a month.

They successfully smuggled themselves to Xiangjiang, easily earning hundreds or even thousands of Hong Kong dollars a month.

Even more smart people have become rich people in Hong Kong.

Thinking of this, the old gentleman also sighed.

"Does your father still have contact with his hometown?" the old gentleman asked.

"There should have been correspondence in the past. I heard my father say that it was always intermittent."

The old gentleman nodded again.

In this era, the only people in China who can really afford landline phones are some government agencies in Yanjing and Shanghai, and ordinary people simply don't have them.

All added up, there are less than two million households in the country.

Under such circumstances, how could the people in northern Guangdong keep in constant contact with Yang Jirong?

"Does your father still have feelings for his hometown?"

"Yes, my father dreams of returning to his hometown."

I heard Yang Ming say that.

The old gentleman finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He also knew that some people smuggled themselves into Xiangjiang from China and almost escaped death. Under such circumstances, how could they survive in Xiangjiang without feeling resentment against the country?
