A few people came to the Guangmaotai General Number, the magnificent four-story building, the big gold-lettered signboard, and the people entering and leaving, all showing the grandeur of Hong Kong's large commercial houses.
Zhao Qi led the three people into a well-appointed reception room next to the hall. Asked the servant to bring tea, and said: "Three, this transaction involves a large amount of cash, I will go to the back hall to find the elders for instructions, a few of you will wait!" After
that, he entered the inner hall and left a servant to serve here, which was actually a surveillance.
The three of them did not sit stupidly, stood up and looked around, touched the table, picked the chair, and looked at the tea bowl.
His mouth kept whispering: "Not bad!" "Well, it's Hainan Huanghuali." "Let's get it back and sell it for a lot of money."
From the contemptuous expression of the little servant, you can see the feeling of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Hey, despised again.
In another room, Zhao Qi stood with his hands down, and was bowing his head to be trained.
The trainer was a magnificent septuagenarian with a good brocade robe and horse coat, thick-soled boots, a slightly raised belly, not low in stature, and a figure similar to Xiao Zhuren.
"Such a thing can't be done, three foreigners have just arrived, you actually let them bring the goods to Hong Kong safely, and they haven't set out the details, it's really waste!"
"Dad, it's Ah Liu, they didn't find out the details, they didn't expect them to be so alert, and they brought short guns..."
"Strong words, this businessman who went to sea is a guy who has no self-defense. If you don't do it well, you don't do it well. Forget it, since you have arrived in Hong Kong, don't move them first, there are many people who want to suppress us, don't ruin my reputation of Guangmaotai, and look for opportunities again. But look at this watch is indeed a boutique. Well, I'll meet them later. "
The kung fu of a meal. The door of the waiting room was pushed open, and the old man paced in, followed by Zhaoqi.
"Ahem," under Wang Luobin's reminder, the three immediately recovered calmly.
The old man smiled faintly, really as frivolous as Qi Er said, not like a perennial businessman, this year is a person who wants China to get rich.
Everyone saluted and sat down, and the old man spoke: "The contemptible person is the current owner of this Guangmaotai family, and I heard Xiao'er Zhaoqi say that several gentlemen came from Nanyang to buy and sell pocket watches." Just saw the goods, which is really good. I have always put credibility first in business, and since Xiao'er agreed to this business, then I should abide by it. It's just that the turnover has been a little difficult recently, and it is inconvenient to take out too much cash. I wonder if I can give it some time or offset it with the goods? After
Zhao Dongjia finished speaking, he looked at the expressions of Yi Xiaojun and several people, and continued: "My Xianghe business has hundreds of branches in the mainland, and there are countless goods from north and south, and it is enough to make a lot of money by transporting them overseas, I believe there must be gentlemen who look at it?"
Yi Xiaojun took the lead in answering: "Zhao Dongjia, your number intends to arrive with goods, and we also have this intention, I am waiting to come to Hong Kong for trade." Well, a few of us like antiques, porcelain, calligraphy and painting, jade. I don't know if your number has these things.
"There are some of these things, I wonder what kind of antiques Mr. wants?"
"Mr. Zhao also knows that a few years ago, foreigners invaded Beijing and copied a lot of things from the palace, most of them were directly taken away by foreigners, and some of them went to Hong Kong. For example, folk calligraphy and painting can also be calligraphy and painting, such as "Four Kings" and "Qi Baishi". Foreign paintings are also available, such as Picasso, Van Gogh and other works are the best, the price is good, and the silver dollar can be left a little.
"Well, let me think about this, although the calligraphy and painting of the four kings is expensive, it should not be a big problem, Qi Baishi's seems to have no reputation, but I will let people pay attention." I haven't heard of the foreign painters you talked about. In this way, I have friends who work in foreign banks, I will ask and see, how about answering you in a few days!
"Yes!" Yi Xiaojun replied.
"Well, let Xiao'er accompany you to get better in Hong Kong these days." I went to deal with the matter, and Qi Er entertained several distinguished guests for me.
"Yes, Father," he replied.
"Then thank you to the owner, I'll wait for the good news." After speaking, the three got up and sent the owner out.
After Zhao Dongjia went out, he said to the servant beside him: "Ah Ding, prepare a car, go to Standard Chartered and see Mr. He." More
than ten minutes later, Ah Ding followed Zhao Dongjia to the British Standard Chartered Company by rickshaw and met Mr. Ho.
Mr. Ho was a British student and worked as a high-class comprador at Standard Chartered in Hong Kong after returning to China. I am very familiar with the Zhao Owner.
"Brother Zhao, why are you free to come to me today?"
"Brother He, brother, I have something to ask for, come, take a look at this first." After speaking, he handed over his watch.
"Oh? Is this a pocket watch? I have seen Mr. MacGalley's wife have a similar watch on her wrist, which is regarded as a treasure, but not as luxurious as this watch. Where does Brother Zhao come from?
"Hehe, I got it from 3 Nanyang merchants, and since this watch is worth a lot, then I am relieved." I know that brother, you have worked in a foreign company for many years, and this foreigner likes to do some antique calligraphy and painting, although I also collect some, but it is still a minority. My client also designated the works of foreign painters Picasso and Van Gogh, I don't know if my brother can help me get some, the price will definitely satisfy you.
"Hehe, that Nanyang guest is also interested in foreigners' calligraphy and painting?" Don't hide Brother Zhao, you said that I do have a way to get some of these things, since Brother Zhao wants it, I will handle this matter later.
Mr. He agreed.
Zhao Dongjia thanked Mr. He, chatted for a while, and then left and returned to Guangmaotai.
At this time, Yi Xiaojun and the three followed Zhao Qi with their suitcases and came to the Xianghe Hotel next door.
"Manager Hu
" "Young Master Qi, you are back." Manager Hu of the hotel saw that the young owner was coming, and hurriedly got up to greet him.
"Well, these are our distinguished guests, arrange a high-class room, if you want to face the street, you must not slack."
"Okay, three gentlemen, please upstairs," Manager Hu personally led a few people upstairs.
The room is decorated in a Western style, with a fireplace and three wooden beds lined in the corner.
There are glass bulbs hanging from the roof, and the filaments inside are still bamboo.
In 1906, Edison invented the tungsten light bulb, which has not yet reached China.
When the three looked at the light bulb, Manager Hu showed a proud expression. "The drawstring of the electric light is by the door wall. Please rest first, please tell me if you need anything, I will be in the lobby downstairs. With that, he exited the room and closed the door.
The three put down the suitcase, moved their wrists, and carried dozens of pounds of boxes along the way, which was really not easy.
Xiao Zhuren walked to the window, pushed open the green glass window, and the noise immediately doubled in.
From here, the street scene is unobstructed, and the location is not bad.
Without turning his head, he said to Yi Xiaojun and Xiao Zhuren who were lying on the bed, "Look at Hong Kong 100 years ago, what you see in the cinema is incomparable." If you shoot a background, it is estimated that it will sell for some money in the 21st century. Oops, look! Xichunlou, it's a brothel, there are many people, or let's go shopping at night? "
Forget it, in this era, the most popular is syphilis, it has not been cured, the probability is too great, or don't go, it is reliable to engage in our loli cultivation plan." Wang Industry said.
"Well, when you rule Hong Kong in the future, pull all these young ladies to heal."
"Hey? By the way, the penicillin we brought can be sold, and it should be no problem to treat syphilis in this era, and people at this time are not yet resistant. Xiao Zhuren said immediately.
"When we come over, the energy is produced, and then sell it to these young ladies, they don't have much money, we brought less this time, it's better to keep it and sell it to rich people in Hong Kong, and get more money to buy equipment." Wang Yegong said seriously.
"Too! I always feel that the day when the energy of this light hole space is used up, there should be a degree, I am afraid that it is used less than once. This light hole space would be good if it were the time-space door of the robot cat, and you can wear it as you want. Yi Xiaojun said.
"Well, then we have to control the number of times." Xiao Zhuren said with a little regret. The worry about the light cave space made the three of them lose the joy they had just now.
In the evening, it was a banquet for three people, and the location was the private room on the second floor of the Wen Xiang Restaurant across the street.
During the banquet, the three continued to talk and talk about each other.
Yi Xiaojun and the three did not know that a day ago, they were almost killed by someone for money.
It's just that the interest shown by Zhao Qi is not very large, as if there is something on his mind. Yi Xiaojun and Xiao Zhuren looked at each other.
Xiao Zhuren opened his mouth and asked: "Does the young owner have something on his mind?" Didn't our business go awry?
"Well, don't worry, my father has already instructed me before I first arrived, and the antiques that the gentlemen want are already slightly eyebrows, and there will be results in the near future, please rest assured." Hey, don't hide a few gentlemen, what you are worried about is actually a family matter, although a few gentlemen are from Nanyang, but they must have heard of the plague more than ten years ago, right? More than 2,000 people died in Guangxu in 20 years, and more than 1,000 people died in 25 years in Guangxu. Hong Kong is also a trade port, and there are many merchants from the south and north, especially foreigners, so the disease has spread to all countries in the world.
"When I returned to Hong Kong this time, I learned that a girl in the family had recently accidentally contracted the plague. This girl has never given birth, and she has loved me very much since she was a child, and she regarded me as her own. I saw that she was so sick, but there was nothing I could do. So today's heart is not smooth, snub a few gentlemen, I hope you forgive me!
"Little things, we have..." When Wang Industry said this, he immediately covered his mouth, broken, and said that he leaked his mouth. Yi and Xiao immediately pulled Wang Gong.
"Does Mr. Wang have a cure?" Zhao Qi looked at the performance of several people and said urgently.
When Yi Xiaojun saw this, he had to answer: "Nanyang is also suffering from the plague, so I waited for a good remedy and finally developed a medicine that can cure the plague, but it can't ensure that everyone can cure it." This time I came to Hong Kong, and I also meant to sell this medicine. After speaking, he took out the two prepared medicine bottles from his body, and inside were liquid streptomycin and amazun.
Zhao Qi looked at the two bottles of potion with a happy face, "Oh, Mr. Yi, if this medicine can cure the plague, then the gentlemen are the grace of all Hong Kong people." I wonder if I can try this medicine?
"Absolutely. One bottle of each of the two potions has a good healing effect, but occasionally there are some side effects, and the medicine must also be injected into the vein of the human body.
"My family has shares in the hospital, there are Western doctors who can inject, and the two bottles are used together, I remember." That saving people is like fighting a fire, I will go to deliver medicine now, and after a few people have eaten, they will rest at the Xianghe Hotel.
After speaking, he said to the servant behind him: "Ah Xi, after settling the bill in a while, take a few gentlemen back to the hotel to rest and serve well." "
Yes, young master," Ah Xi obeyed.
After the three of them had eaten, they returned to the hotel to rest.
"I don't know if the plague in this time and space can be cured, the dose we let him inject is not small, it doesn't matter if it can't be cured, just don't treat the dead."
"Mr. Yi, don't worry, there is no streptomycin in this era, and the effect should not be bad. It's a big deal, we walk through the light hole space.
"Well, take a gamble!"
"This plague is only contracted by poor hygiene, or it is used by the poor. In the future, the price will be set low, don't be unable to sell at that time. "
Talk was replaced by sleepiness and a night without words.
