Chapter 1531 Progress
As the Falklands War progressed, Han Li, who came to Hong Kong University to teach with a recommendation letter from the University of Oxford in England, was also approached by some interested people.

Those powerful and wealthy people have their own connections and channels of communication. They look down on Han Li, a small fry, and those who come to him are some of the more active people in Hong Kong University.

The thing is, today is the day Han Li completes his teaching assignment for this month.

Han Li drove to Hong Kong University after dinner as usual. In the office, he drank tea, prepared lessons, and waited for the class to start.

Because most people in Hong Kong look down on mainlanders, this situation also exists in Hong Kong University.

Even though Han Li holds the title of Master's student at Niu Jing University and is now an associate professor at the school, he cannot avoid this situation.

This is also the main reason why Han Li doesn't like to stay in school and has not really started to teach students yet.

All these situations combined resulted in Han Li's office being visited by almost no one on a regular basis.

However, as the Falklands War progressed, those ignorant citizens were still praising England's successive victories.

The information and knowledge of Hong Kong University employees are far superior to others, and some smart people have seen the decline of the university that once boasted the sun never set.

They believed that it would be so difficult for the British army to conquer a small Falkland Island when fighting against Argentina.

If they were to face a more powerful China that had a geographical advantage and better supplies, they would probably have no chance of winning.

If China and Britain fail to reach an agreement this year, conflict between the two sides will be inevitable.

The most crucial thing is the age of these people. Most of them personally experienced the period when the "little red dot" occupied Hong Kong, and some of them even had relatives and friends who died during that period.

(December 41, 12.)
They don't know what the final battle situation will be like, but this place will definitely be affected by the war.

Faced with this situation, those who had personal experience and witnessed the situation at the time thought about how to ensure the safety of their families in wartime and the importance of leaving themselves a way out.

So, Han Li, the colleague from the mainland, came into their sight again.

Just today, Han Li came to the office to make tea for himself, and when he was teaching, there was a knock on the door.

Han Li then entertained several colleagues in succession, each of whom was more enthusiastic than before.
Not only did he care about Han Li's life in Hong Kong, he shared a lot of school news, some teaching experiences, and also talked about some topics about his life in Beijing.

When receiving the first two colleagues, Han Li really didn't understand why they came.

However, when he met the third colleague, Han Li finally understood what these people meant.

This is a byproduct of the Falklands War, and these people are also very smart.

Fundamentally speaking, these people have not changed their deep-rooted ideas of looking down on mainlanders, nor have they missed their ancestors and loved their country so much that they want to completely embrace their ancestral country.

These people are just trying their best to get close to Han Li. They came today just to get closer to Han Li so that the two sides can have a closer relationship in the future.

What they are really worried about is themselves, because if the situation in Hong Kong really reaches that point.

Then Han Li, a colleague from the Forty-Nine City, could take them to the other side with his identity as a mainlander. If things didn't develop to that point, it would also be good for them.

With the research commissions that Han Li kept receiving, it was only a matter of time before he gained a foothold and made a name for himself at Hong Kong University.

The closer relationship they are building now is nothing more than an advance investment, so this is a sure-win deal in every way.

After Han Li figured it out, he secretly shook his head in his heart, but he did not reject this situation.

Because in this world, there is no road that cannot be traveled and no person that cannot be used.

What's more, they are colleagues. A closer relationship will help Han Li promote academic exchanges with Yan University and Hong Kong University and create exchange students.

Han Li wrote down some of the names they had just mentioned. These people were either indifferent to worldly affairs or die-hard fans of foreigners. In any case, it would not be wrong to write them down until he could see if he could use them or not.

The impact of the Falklands War was more than that. First of all, the Knutsford Terrace Real Estate Company came into contact with several very high-quality properties.

High-quality assets cannot be negotiated in one go, but as long as there is contact, the matter will have some prospects and there is hope of acquiring them.

Of course, Han Li doesn’t need to worry about these things, let alone contact the other party.

In order to get their own commissions, the employees of the real estate company will try their best to make this happen as long as there is hope.

Last year, the property company hired two well-informed and well-connected married housewives. Their achievements led to the company's acquisition of the two shops and several houses in Sham Shui Po a few years ago.

After Han Li returned to Hong Kong this year, he felt that he had not bought enough real estate companies. In this era without the Internet, the more companies he bought and the wider their distribution, the more information he would get.

Han Li wanted to acquire more properties before the two countries talked and some families took action, so he could only ask the real estate company to expand the number of employees.

Han Li is a person who is good at slacking off and taking his time. Even if he is rich, he is unwilling to let others make money by slacking off for him.

So Han Li asked the company to recruit some part-time employees without paying them any salary, but only with bonuses and commissions.

Among these people are middle-aged women who do housework and take care of children at home, street vendors selling snacks, police officers from the police station, people who work in other companies and factories, and even a few gangsters from social organizations.

These people also take part-time jobs with the idea of ​​trying their best to get something out of it. Anyway, this kind of thing does not affect their daily life and work. If they happen to make a deal, it will be extra income.

On the other hand, as per Han Li's instructions, Chung Chu-hung has been renting stores and shops in shopping malls in Causeway Bay, Wan Chai, Mong Kok, Yau Ma Tei, Tsim Sha Tsui and Tsuen Wan, which are the most prosperous and lively places in Hong Kong.

This matter did not go smoothly at the beginning, because most of the shops that could be opened on such a busy street could make money.

Therefore, at the beginning, Zhong Chuhong achieved little success.

Although there has been some improvement recently, it is still somewhat unsatisfactory according to the goals set by Han Li.

For this reason, Zhong Chuhong often complained to Han Li when she got home at night. What could Han Li do? Of course he had to communicate with her properly, but reducing the number was absolutely not an option.

Because Han Li had intended this.
