Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 778: We are all human beings, why is there such a big difference? (Happy Holidays)
"Shall we have a baby?"

On the bed, Hua Yourong looked at him with a dazed look on her face and asked softly.

Yang Xiaole thought about it and said, "Sure! But... when the baby is born, I may not have the time to accompany the child often."

Now that you are married, having children is naturally on the agenda.

When I was with Qu Ying before, I was in my pregnancy period. I guess we’ll find out about the pregnancy next month. After all, we’re both in good health and have no problems.

Hua Yourong kissed him directly after hearing that.

……

The next morning, Hua Yourong got up on time.

"If you have nothing else to do, let's go take wedding photos today. You and Sister Jing can do it tomorrow!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole was stunned for a moment.

wedding photos.

This is something that is very popular in later generations, but it actually originated very early. It’s just that due to the special situation in the mainland, he even forgot about taking wedding photos.

However, it is impossible to take photos in the mainland and pose in various ambiguous postures.

Now that Hua Yourong brought up this matter, he finally reacted.

He collected his thoughts and said with a smile, "Okay! I'll follow the leader's instructions! I'll do whatever you say!"

I was thinking about taking a photo with Qu Ying when I get back.

You can't have one without the other!

Hua Yourong smiled and agreed.

Then they started making phone calls to make arrangements, and it was obvious that everything had been agreed upon in advance.

In the next two days, Yang Xiaole followed the two women to take wedding photos.

Fortunately, it is not that complicated at this time and you don’t need to change many sets of clothes.

……

On the fourth day after arriving in Hong Kong, Huang Qiujing mobilized funds and used part of them to purchase gold passbooks from HSBC.

Some people buy it in the name of following the trend.

In addition, Huang Qiujing has already asked his financial department to start deploying the layout of the Hong Kong stock market.

The wedding date was set for seven days later.

That evening, Yang Xiaole drove to a tenement building and went upstairs carrying his things.

"Is anyone home?"

He knocked on the door gently and called inside.

After a while, a young woman in her thirties came out of the house with a shovel.

"Sister Fang Mei!"

Yang Xiaole looked at the other person and greeted him with a smile.

The other person was Captain Liu’s wife Fang Mei, who had gone to the Northwest Base with him before.

Fang Mei was also excited when she saw him: "Oh my god, Xiaole, why are you here! Come in, come in quickly."

Greeting with a smile.

Yang Xiaole went in with his things in his hand, smiling.

The room is very small, only a dozen square meters.

It's very messy and cluttered inside.

"Look at you, you're already here, but you still bring something with you! Don't bring anything with you next time!"

Fang Mei looked at him and said with a smile.

"Bring some food for the kids. Where are Tiedan and Lanlan? Aren't they home? Hasn't Brother Liu returned to Hong Kong Island yet?"

Yang Xiaole glanced around and asked with a smile.

He had come here once before, but Fang Mei did not accept his kindness, so she found a job for herself.

Maybe it’s because Lao Liu has a special identity!

"The kids are out playing, and your brother Liu has also returned to Hong Kong Island. Don't leave for a while. I'm going to buy some food and we'll have dinner here tonight. Old Liu and the others will be back soon."

Since Yang Xiaole was here, he naturally planned to eat here.

Pointing at the things he brought, he smiled and said, "Don't buy vegetables. I brought chicken and meat. I'll cook and eat them later. By the way, are Chen Hongjun and Chen Hongjun here? And where's Meng Dong?"

"They are all here! They will probably be back soon."

Fang Mei looked at him and complained, "How can a guest bring his own food? What's wrong? I can't even afford to treat you to a meal!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole said with a smile: "Big sister! You treat me as an outsider! I just thought that I came at the wrong time, and it would be troublesome to buy vegetables!"

The lives of ordinary people in Hong Kong Island are not particularly good now.

Rich people live a lavish life, but ordinary people still live a very frugal life.

After hearing this, Fang Mei thought about it and said, "Okay, I won't be polite with you. I'll go and do my work first. You can talk again when Lao Liu and the others come back."

After saying that, she poured him a glass of water, said hello and went out.

Yang Xiaole knew that she wanted Tiedan to call her father back.

After a while Fang Mei came back and was cleaning up the food.

While chatting.

"Xiao Le, what are you doing now? I haven't seen you for a long time."

"I don't have much to do. I just have some business in Africa and I go there often."

"Wow! Your business is so big now!"

Fang Mei was surprised when she heard that, but she didn't try to make friends with him. Instead, she smiled and said, "I've always felt that you were much more intelligent than other children. I didn't expect you to be so successful when you grow up."

"Sister Fang, I'm just lucky."

While thinking, a voice came from the door.

"Brother Xiaole!"

The door opened and Lao Liu saw him and said with a smile.

"Brother Liu, Brother Liang, Brother Meng..."

Looking at the people behind him, Yang Xiaole stood up and greeted them with a smile.

At this time, several people were wearing short-sleeved T-shirts.

There was a lot of dust all over his body.

"Why are you here? Sit down. There's not enough space at home. Go take a shower next door first."

Old Liu greeted them with a smile.

Upon hearing this, the other people smiled, said hello, and left.

The two children were also sent away.

After all, the house is too small.

After the two of them sat down, Lao Liu looked at him, then looked outside, and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"

Yang Xiaole understood what he meant and whether he should come out to carry out the mission.

He smiled and nodded: "Yeah, something happened."

After saying that, he looked around the room and said, "Brother Liu, how many people followed you this time? Aren't you planning to go back?"

Lao Liu sighed and said, "Something unexpected happened. We don't think we can go back in the short term. And you know what the situation is in the mainland now. Going back may not be a good thing, so we will settle down here in Hong Kong Island first.

This place is close to the mainland, and once we have news, we can go back."

Yang Xiaole nodded lightly when he heard this.

Nowadays, external work is still quite sensitive. If you are not careful, you will be regarded as a problem.

It is estimated that Lao Liu’s contact person might have been beaten into a ***.

Without asking any more questions, he looked at the house and said, "Brother Liu, how many people are here this time?"

"There are 23 people here, including relatives, a total of more than 30 people. What happened?"

Yang Xiaole looked at the house and said, "I came here for a few things. I'm getting married in a few days. If you have time, come over to have some fun. I don't have many relatives here."

"Ah? You're getting married? That's a good thing! Don't worry, we will definitely go there."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole said awkwardly: "Well... I have two marriage partners this time."

"Puff~~" Lao Liu was drinking water, and upon hearing this, he quickly sprayed it out to the side.

Fang Mei also stopped cooking.

He came over directly and said, "Xiao Le, you are such a piece of shit! I didn't expect you to be such a person."

Old Liu glared at her and said, "What nonsense are you talking about!"

Fang Mei was not afraid of him, she glared at him and said, "What? You still want to learn from him?"

These words made Lao Liu feel helpless.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole could only say, "It's also a mission requirement! I got the marriage certificate in 71, when the marriage law of the Qing Dynasty in Hong Kong had not yet been abolished."

In fact, the Qing Dynasty marriage system in Hong Kong is somewhat different from that in ancient times.

In ancient times, the practice was monogamy with multiple concubines.

However, in Hong Kong Island, the Qing Dynasty legal system has continued, but people can get multiple marriage certificates.

And these people all have equal legal status.

Unlike in ancient times, there is a rule of having a mistress of the house.

In Hong Kong Island, whether there is a mistress depends on the man's attitude. If the man says yes, there is a mistress. If the man says no, then there is no mistress.

Everything is equal.

After a man dies, if he does not make a will, all members of the same family have equal legal inheritance rights.

"Ah? Are you here for the mission?"

Fang Mei was surprised when she heard this.

I immediately started to imagine.

Yang Xiaole didn't admit it after hearing this: "I can't explain this clearly for the time being, and I can't say it. Anyway, it's much more convenient for me to go out and carry out the mission now."

Fang Mei nodded slightly when she heard this: "That's better. Hey, there's still food in the pot!"

After realizing what was happening, he quickly ran to the kitchen.

In fact, it is just a small platform built on the side where people cook with a coal stove.

"Don't worry, big brother, we will definitely go when the time comes, as long as you don't mind embarrassing you."

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Hey, you are my eldest sister. If anyone dares to say you are shameful, I will throw them out."

Then he looked at Liu Shengli and said, "Brother Liu, I have a building in front. It's not convenient for you to live here. You can just move there tomorrow. I won't charge you rent. You can move out whenever you want."

Hua Yourong's real estate company bought a lot of houses and land back then.

Whether it is a building, a tenement building or even a wooden house, there are them.

Before coming here, a group of tenants had already been cleared out.

There are five floors in total, all of which are cement houses. They can accommodate at least a dozen households, and the rooms are not too small.

It's much more spacious than here.

Hearing this, Liu Shengli hesitated for a moment: "This...is not appropriate. We are fine here."

"Brother Liu, why are you still being so polite to me? When I delivered supplies to you, you were never polite to me!"

That batch of arms was of very high value at that time.

Liu Shengli thought about it and laughed: "Okay, I won't be hypocritical with you, okay, we will move tomorrow! This landlord is not easy to talk to. We will pay the rent when the time comes."

"Okay, we'll talk about it later!"

Yang Xiaole was not polite and took out a bunch of keys: "These are the keys to the main door and the residents inside. You can go over and try them yourself when the time comes."

I told him the address by the way.

Liu Shengli took it, looked at it, and put it on the table.

The two were smoking there.

Yang Xiaole then said, "Brother Liu, I have something to ask for your help this time."

"It's okay, just tell me!"

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaole said, "It's like this. Our company has two industries. One is in Tsing Yi Mountain Science Park. I need some of my own people to help me look after the site. The other is Kwai Tsing Pier No. 1 opposite Tsing Yi Mountain. We also need someone to manage it."

In the future, the Science and Technology City will need to attract a lot of Russian people.

So we definitely need someone of our own for security.

Li Sichen is in full control of the security of the entire group company, but he is also very busy and has to go to Africa to be stationed for a period of time when he has nothing to do.

So he also needs someone to take care of the security of the Science and Technology City.

If Liu Shengli wants to leave in the future, we’ll talk about it then.

As for Kwai Tsing Pier, it is naturally a new pier built on reclaimed land.

The port with the largest throughput in the world in the future was later replaced by a mainland port and became the fourth. He was bound to get involved. There were a total of 9 ports, and he took over three of them.

The top four ports in the world.

Except for the Yangshan Port and Shenzhen Port in the mainland, which have not yet been opened, he has acquired a considerable share of these two ports.

These will all be money-making beasts in the future.

As for the dock, it is also because we hope to make it easier for these people to carry out their tasks.

The appearance of the dock is completely different when there are people there and when there is no one there.

Of course, he can find someone else, someone more professional.

But it is not justifiable not to take care of your own people. Besides, professional matters at the dock will be handled by professionals.

No need to worry too much.

Liu Shengli laughed bitterly when he heard this: "Xiao Le, you... you are not asking me to help you! I am a rough guy who knows nothing. I don't want to delay your work."

"Haha, Brother Liu, don't worry! Technology Achievement is responsible for the security there. Isn't this your specialty? Let Meng Dong or someone else take charge when the time comes. You can go and take a look when you are free. Can't you just go over to the dock?"
Let's try it. If it doesn't work, you can tell me again! Isn't that right?"

When Liu Shengli heard this, he was thinking about it.

Yes!

Isn’t security the same as what they do in the mainland?

And it’s not impossible to leave if you don’t do well.

It’s better than carrying heavy bags to the dock every day!
Thinking of this, he agreed: "Okay, let's do it."

Then he reacted: "You said Kwai Tsing Pier is yours?"

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded: "Yeah! What's wrong?"

In fact, he guessed something.

This is no longer Tsim Sha Tsui, but Sham Shui Po.

There is only one pier nearby, which is Kwai Tsing Pier No. 1 which just opened to the public this year.

really.

Liu Shengli smiled bitterly and said, "We'll just carry the bags there!"

Yang Xiaole smiled when he heard this: "I guessed it when I knew you guys were working at the docks. It just so happens that you guys are familiar with that place."

Hearing this, Liu Shengli smiled and nodded.

"Okay, let's try it first. If it doesn't work, you don't have to give me face."

"Okay! That's settled. You guys take a rest today and move tomorrow. I'll give you an address and you guys can report there the day after tomorrow. I'll give everyone a heads up in advance."

The two of them decided this matter with a smile.

Liu Shengli looked at Yang Xiaole in front of him.

I felt a surge of emotion in my heart.

We are all here to carry out the same mission, so how come this guy is doing so well?
They were all living in poverty.

The gap between people is so huge!
After a while, the person who was taking a shower next door came back, and they started chatting together.

Everyone was naturally happy about Yang Xiaole's proposal.

And from what he said, it seemed that there was a foreman at the dock who had given these people a hard time.

Naturally, Yang Xiaole didn't say anything about this and let them handle it themselves. After all, people are biased.

After having a good meal and a few drinks in the evening, Yang Xiaole finally left.

He went straight to the nearby Science and Technology City. He had to inform Lao Luo and discuss the future factory matters.
