Chapter 37 Salty News
Xian Yaowen turned around and saw Hong Yingdong who was just as he thought. He clasped his fists and said, "It turns out to be Brother Hong. What a coincidence."

Hong Yingdong stepped in front of Xian Yaowen and said with a smile: "After leaving Dongsha Island, I went to Brother Xian's house. Your servant said that you went to England. Did Brother Xian just come back from England?"

"I just got off the plane this morning. Did Brother Hong just arrive or is he already eating and about to leave?"

Since there was no power supply on the Getang ship at this time, and the main business was from noon to evening, Xian Yaowen and the others arrived late, and they would inevitably have to eat under a lantern later.

"Just here. Brother Xian, since we happened to meet each other today, why not let me be the host and give me a chance to express my gratitude." Hong Yingdong said with his fists in his hands.

"Forget it today." Xian Yaowen gestured to Luo Yingshi next to Hong Yingdong, "This is Luo Yingshi from Giant Eagle Real Estate. Brother Luo, I am hosting this meal for Brother Luo. Brother Luo, this is Hong Yingdong, we were colleagues in the past, and we were both doing business in seaweed."

After Luo Yingshi and Hong Yingdong exchanged greetings, Xian Yaowen said again: "Brother Luo, Brother Hong, why don't the three of us come together and let me get a bargain and earn two favors for one meal."

Luo Yingshi said with a smile: "One more person means more excitement. You can take advantage of this."

"Then I'm sorry to bother you," Hong Yingdong said.

The three of them went up to the second floor of the boat together and chose a seat by the window.

Luo Yingshi is probably a foodie, and Hong Yingdong is a Dan family. Xian Yaowen is definitely not as good as the two in terms of eating seafood. He is also happy to humbly give up the right to order food to the two of them, and he looks out the window.

There are stars and moons in the sky, and lanterns are shining brightly on the sea. The dim light is refracted, elongated, and rippled by the waves. It is quite the artistic conception of stars hanging over the vast plains and the moon surging in the river.

After admiring the night view of the sea for a while, I looked back and saw that Luo Yingshi and the others had already placed the order. Xian Yaowen sat upright and said to Hong Yingdong: "Brother Hong, are you still continuing the business of sea human grass?"

Hong Yingdong gave a wry smile and said, "What I encountered was an inhumane thing. The partnership business has been dissolved. Not only did I not make a penny, but I also got a ride on a boat."

"Oh, what is Brother Hong doing now?"

"I help my mother take care of the barge business at home. I come to Yulitai not only to eat but also to settle the freight. Mrs. Xian takes good care of my mother's business."

Xian Yaowen chuckled and said: "What a coincidence, your client actually has the same surname as me. I don't know how strong the Xian family is. If they are strong, I will shamelessly seek a relative."

Luo Yingshi interrupted, "Yaowen, don't you know the Xian family?"

"Brother Luo, from what you say, the Xian family is great? How does it compare with the He and Li families?"

"No comparison." Luo Yingshi replied and looked at Hong Yingdong, "Mr. Hong, please introduce the Xian family to Yaowen. I don't know much."

"Brother Xian, the Xian family used to be officials in the late Qing Dynasty. Later, because they offended the powerful, two generations of the family were forced to buy two sailboats and go south to Hong Kong to escape. During the voyage, one of the sailboats sank, and all the people on board were killed. The remaining The Xian family members on a boat were lucky enough to survive. They used the remaining sailboat to learn to be fishermen and run a fishery business in Aberdeen, Hong Kong.

Over time, with capital, Xian provided boatbuilding services to fishermen under the name of Yu Litai. Now Xian controls the price and supply of seafood in Aberdeen. "

Hong Yingdong introduced.

Xian Yaowen suddenly realized, no wonder Luo Yingshi asked the previous question. He proposed to come to Yu Litai, but he didn't know who its owner was.

He clasped his fists at Luo Yingshi and Hong Yingdong, "Brother Luo, Brother Hong, and I have only been in Hong Kong for more than a month. Although I understand the style of Hong Kong attentively and are familiar with the layout of the streets, I know very little about humanities. Please ask me in the future." Please give me some advice, don't let me make any jokes."

Luo Yingshi said with a smile: "With Yaowen's ability, I will soon be able to make a name for myself in Hong Kong. Brother, I still count on your care."

"Brother Xian has been a life-saving benefactor to Hong. If he can be of use to Hong, just say so." Hong Yingdong responded with clasped fists.

"Brother Hong, I'm serious. Don't mention this matter anymore. Xian is planning to open a factory and build a business. There will be transportation of goods in the future. I need Brother Hong to take care of the barge."

Hong Yingdong smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Xian."

"Don't be too busy thanking me." Luo Yingshi nuzzled his lips in one direction, "The raw pickled crab is delicious, let's not let it down."

The food was served, and the three of them chatted while eating.

The three of them were not too familiar with each other, and the topics they talked about would not be too in-depth. They would only talk about general people's livelihood and romance in Hong Kong, such as what kind of business is easy to do recently.

"Roshan Hidden Daji" did not bring any surprises to Xian Yaowen. Qin Xiaoli only wore a sequined bra on the upper body and a pair of briefs on the lower body during the performance, which also attracted the audience to swallow their saliva and keep applauding.

With this quality, it is not as open as the pheasant performance troupe that ran exchange meetings and temple fairs in various places in the Mainland in the 90s. Cantonese opera is not Cantonese opera, stripping is not stripping, and it is very smooth.

When leaving Gaosheng Theater, Xian Yaowen saw an advertisement posted at the entrance. In a few days, the "new handsome man" Guan Dexing would perform "Cao Cao, Guan Yu, Diao Chan" on stage here. He secretly noticed that if the ticket price was not too high by scalpers, Gao, come and watch a show.

Kwan Tak-hing is amazing. He is both a martial arts master and a Cantonese opera master. In the future, he will open a pharmacy called "Po Chi Lam" and become the incarnation of Wong Fei-hung. He played Wong Fei-hung dozens of times in his life. After his death, he was even praised as his concubine to the gods. , is very loved by a group of people, and it won’t hurt to have some connections with such people.

Thinking of martial arts, Xian Yaowen also thought that the fighting skills of several people were almost useless, so they should find a master with good kung fu to help them strengthen their skills.

On the way home, various martial arts schools were wandering around in Xian Yaowen's mind, such as level 8, Tai Chi, Bagua, foot poke, Hong Quan, Cai Lifu, Chuanquan, Wing Chun, etc., and the ones that were too difficult to practice were divided into those that were too difficult to practice. We eliminated and screened out the ones where it was easy to find masters in Hong Kong, and finally only Wing Chun and Stampede were left.

Stab the foot is easy to say, even if he can't find a master, he can do it by himself. Stab the foot specializes in vital points. Most of the moves have a small range of movement. When fighting in close combat, a surprise kick to the crotch or numb tendon can instantly make the enemy lose combat effectiveness.

As for Wing Chun, as long as the time in those Ip Man movies is not made up, this poor guy Ip Man should be in Hong Kong. Speaking of which, he and Ip Man are half the same people. He is doing joint defense, and Ip Man is They used to work in the Flower Collection Bureau (the unit responsible for collecting taxes from brothels), so they have a common language. In addition, Ip Man's life must be very tight. If you give more tuition, the other party will definitely be willing to teach.

Thinking about things, Xian Yaowen had already arrived in front of his house. Before he got off the rickshaw, the smell of roasted suckling pig penetrated his nose, and then the light of the bonfire also dazzled his eyes.

In front of the shop, except for Gu Baozhang and Dong Xiangqian, two people with a family, there were several other people in the family. A suckling pig was slowly roasted on the bonfire. Smelling the fragrance of the suckling pig, everyone drank some braised beer.

Xian Yaowen frowned and walked to the bonfire. When everyone saw him, they stood up quickly.

Pressing his hands, Xian Yaowen asked everyone to sit down and said calmly: "If you do this again in the future, don't do it at the gate. Do it on the rooftop. There are many people in Shek Kip Mei who cannot guarantee three meals a day. Don't worry. If you are few and suffer from inequality, be careful."

With that said, Xian Yaowen said to Xian Yaowu alone: ​​"Have you bought the newspaper?"

"I bought it and put it on the dining table."

Xian Yaowen nodded, "Cheryl lives in a Hong Kong hotel?"

"Yes." "Oh." Xian Yaowen nodded again, then turned to look at Wang Xiamin, "Amin, eat quickly. When you finish eating, go up and I'll tell you something."

Wang Xiamin stood up and said, "Sir, I'm going up now."

"No need." Xian Yaowen pressed his hand, "You eat first, and then we'll talk after you finish."

After Xian Yaowen finished speaking, he walked towards the stairs. When he got to the third floor, he saw Su Lizhen standing in the corridor in a daze. He stopped and took a look, then went up to the fourth floor and returned to his room.

There were two piles of newspapers on the dining table. One pile contained newspapers that published serious news. Xian Yaowen did not move it, but picked up one from the other pile and started reading.

The word "Xian" in "Xian Bao" does not mean "salty" but "salty", which means "salty". As the name suggests, "Xian Bao" is a newspaper that publishes pornographic articles.

Although Hong Kong has a press censorship office, it only censors articles that are not conducive to the rule of the Hong Kong government and smear the British. Once discovered, the bosses of the newspaper and related people will be embarrassed and will be more tolerant of other content. Love Write whatever you want, just don’t go too far.

Because of this, Ham News has free space for development in Hong Kong, and many cultural figures work in Ham News or serve as writers.

Xian Yaowen glanced at the articles in newspapers and periodicals. When he saw the articles in the newspapers and periodicals that were well written and engaging, he would draw a circle on the author's name. When he saw the ambiguous foreplay articles that were particularly exciting, he would circle them and make a circle. hook.

He has decided that the first factory to open is a clothing factory. The main products at the beginning are shirts and women's underwear. His idea of ​​how to make shirts has not yet been formed, but he already has mature ideas for underwear, and the styles are in He already has hundreds of ideas in his mind, and can propose one for printing at any time. He also has a relatively comprehensive plan for publicity methods, and Xianbao is one of them.

When the factory is built and the underwear products come out, he will go to the writers of these salty newspapers. Not only will he pay them privately for writing, but he will also teach them a new writing style "underwear school" and provide them with some creative ideas. , for a single male landlady and female tenant, he can come up with hundreds of story scripts, and in turn, there are hundreds more for the female landlady and male tenants.

Perhaps, he will become the spiritual leader of Hong Kong's salty-wet revolution.

After thinking about it, Xian Yaowen still felt that this was not the right leader. It would not be good if he was labeled as a salty man. He had to cherish his feathers and let others take care of it.

"The salty newspaper is only the first step. There are several big plans ahead. We need to find a capable and shameless cultural person to execute them." Xian Yaowen silently recorded this item in the to-do list in his mind, planning to complete it before the year This matter has been dealt with.

After reading a dozen newspapers, Wang Xiamin came upstairs, walked up to Xian Yaowen, called sir, and then stood silently waiting for Xian Yaowen to speak.

Xian Yaowen finished reading an article before he looked up at Wang Xiamin's face and said in a pleasant tone: "I missed it this New Year's Day out of town, but the etiquette should still be followed. Tomorrow you go to the vegetable market to cut a piece of double-knife meat and buy some snacks. You can buy candies and choose what your family likes to eat.

Go to the bookstore and buy some books, paper and pens for your younger brothers and sisters, so that they can study hard. As long as their grades are good, I can sponsor their tuition.

This is a courtesy for your family. As for you, I will give you a day off. Go home in the morning, and in the afternoon you can go shopping, buy clothes, watch a movie, eat something delicious, and spend your money freely. It doesn’t work. No matter how much you drop, you can ask me to reimburse you. "

"Thank you, sir." Wang Xiamin said with a smile.

"You're welcome. Make me a cup of tea."

That night, Xian Yaowen read the newspapers for half the night until he had read all the newspapers and compiled a list of contributors.

……

Xian Yaowen was not in a hurry to find Ip Man, but it happened to be such a coincidence.

Wang Xiamin bought things early in the morning and went home to visit her family. Xian Yaowen read the newspaper at home all morning, but did not wait until Liu Changfu came to visit, thinking that he might not have received the news that he had returned.

He didn't stay at home when he was going out in the afternoon. During lunch time, he took Zheng Yueying and Qi Longque out.

He planned to let Qi Longque follow him as a bodyguard first to test his quality, and then slowly become the security chief.

Zheng Yueying is a woman who is both wild and ruthless, and her wealth is not shallow. It will be difficult to conquer her, and she is a reckless person. If she is a member of the club, with her ruthlessness and beauty, she should be able to make a name for herself.

But he is following the path of an entrepreneur. He will have contact with the society and will most likely become a big drain behind a certain society in the future. But that’s it. He can just pay the society to do things for him. There is no need to place him in the society. One of our own.

If this club doesn't work, just find another one to support it. The club is said to be righteous, but at heart it's still money-making. As long as you have money, you don't have to worry about finding people to do things. In Xian Yaowen's eyes, the club is like a chamber pot. After using it for a long time, it will become more useful. If there is urine stain, replace it with a new one.

If you get involved too deeply and are bound by friendship or interests, you lose flexibility. Therefore, you don't need to and can't interfere in the internal affairs of the society. The leader or the person who loves you can just collect the money and get things done. It doesn’t matter if it was collected by Zhang San or Li Si.

Because of this, he had some difficulty with Zheng Yueying's arrangement. He thought of taking her with him to help run errands first, and then trying to send her to night school when he had more time. If she was not good at studying, he would keep her by his side. If not, find an opportunity to help her arrange a path and let her go out on her own.

In this way, it was worthy of her kneeling.

Lei Uk Estate is a bit out of the way. Unless a rickshaw pulls by, there are very few cars here. They had to take a rickshaw, and they happened to have lunch. The three of them walked out of Tokyo Street, turned onto Lai Chi Kok Road, and came to Tai Nan Only in the street section can you see a rickshaw.

After finding two rickshaws for them to wait for, the three of them got into the tea restaurant next to them.

It was such a coincidence that as soon as he entered the tea restaurant, Xian Yaowen looked up and saw a thin man with a sallow face and a short stature. He was holding a cigarette in one hand and a newspaper in the other, sitting with his legs crossed in a polite manner. The old man, he thought that the old man looked a bit like the Ip Man he had seen in the photo, but he was not sure, so he had to take a few more looks. He happened to see the waiter from the tea restaurant bringing a lunch box to the old man and shouting, " Master Ye".

Yes, this is Ip Man for sure.

Xian Yaowen stepped forward and clasped his fists at Ye Wen who was about to pay, "May I ask if you are Master Ye from Foshan?"

Ye Wen glanced at Xian Yaowen suspiciously, and then replied: "I am Ye Jiwen."

"Hello, Master Ye. I, Xian Yaowen, would like to ask Master Ye to teach boxing to a few people."

Ip Man took a drag on his cigarette and said softly: "If you want to learn boxing, you can go to the Hong Kong and Kowloon Hotel Staff Association to find me. I will teach boxing there. The tuition is eight yuan a month."

"Okay, then I'll chat with Master Ye another day." Xian Yaowen replied, and then said to the waiter: "I'll buy Master Ye's order."

"Have a heart."

Ye Wen said something and walked towards the door of the tea restaurant with his lunch box in hand.

"This old man deserves to have worked in the flower donation bureau. He is used to being handed cards." Xian Yaowen cursed and told Zheng Yueying and the two of them to find a seat.
