Peninsula Landlord

Chapter 476

The next afternoon, Incheon International Airport.

"Xiao Xu, is this the airport in South Korea?"

"It feels no different from the airport we departed from, right?"

"It even feels like it's not as advanced as ours."

Huang Wensheng, who came to South Korea for the first time, looked very disappointed at the airport environment and the people passing by.

Before he came to Korea, he had great expectations and longings for Korea.

But now, seeing that apart from the Korean signs and people communicating in Korean, the environment is basically the same as in China, he couldn't help feeling disappointed.

Huang Xu, who was standing next to him, listened to his father's sigh and the disappointed expression on his face, and explained with a smile.

"Dad, South Korea is developed because it developed earlier, so it feels more advanced."

"But after so many years of development, China has caught up with them and is no worse than them."

"In fact, as long as the country maintains this pace of development, it is not impossible for us to surpass them in a few years."

"Is that so?"

Listening to Huang Xu's explanation, Huang Wensheng looked confused.

Over the past decade or so, most of his understanding of the outside world and his knowledge of foreign countries came from television and radio.

And South Korea, as one of the developed countries in Asia, should be very developed and advanced in his mind.

Especially after Huang Wenfu came to Korea to work, he added a layer of filter to his view of Korea through Huang Wenfu's mouth.

There’s no way. Everyone who goes abroad to work will say bad things after returning home, right?
Isn’t it always about reporting good news and not bad news?
Huang Xu looked at his father's expression and didn't say anything. He took him to pick up their checked luggage.

My father's situation is actually very common among people who are going abroad for the first time or have never been abroad.

To put it bluntly, there is a heavy filter through which we view the foreign environment and society.

And it’s not just my father who has this kind of filter, but he is a microcosm of an era.

Nowadays, a large number of people in China have a very serious filter for foreign countries because of the propaganda and preparation of various media.

They need to actually travel abroad, or wait until the era of self-media arrives and see the real situation abroad, before they can disenchant themselves with these things.

So in the face of his father's doubts, Huang Xu did not explain too much, but took his father to pick up their luggage, and then pushed the cart towards the exit.

"Dad, this is"

"There is"

Walking and talking along the way, the two soon arrived at the international flight exit.

At this time, Huang Wenfu was already waiting for the two at the exit.

"Brother, welcome to Korea!"

. . . . . . .

Ten minutes later, after a short break, the three of them drove together towards Seoul.

At this time, Huang Wensheng looked at the farmland outside the car window and the low villages in the distance for a while, and the disappointment on his face became more obvious.

"Xiao Xu, this place is really the same as you described."

“There doesn’t seem to be anything special about Korea!”

"Dad, I told you, don't have any expectations when you come to Korea. It's just a small country in East Asia."

"It's just that he developed earlier and had better publicity."

"In fact, the development in our country is really not worse than here."

Seeing the disappointment on his father's face, Huang Xu patiently explained to him.

Listening to Huang Xu's explanation, Huang Wenfu, who was driving in front, couldn't help but interrupt.

"Brother, Xiaoxu is right. It's actually like this abroad."

"In the past, foreign countries were indeed better than ours, and they were leading in every aspect. But in recent years, our country has been developing very fast."

"In many aspects, China is no worse than these developed countries."

"You don't know how shocked I am every time I go back and see the development there."

"Have we developed so well?"

Listening to his brother and son's words, Huang Wensheng's worldview suffered a huge impact.

He was born in China, grew up in China, and lives in China.

But for those of us who have always lived in a rural area in the heart of the Central Plains, although I feel that life is better now and everyone has money, many families have built new houses.

However, these changes are all happening imperceptibly, and there is still a huge gap compared to the skyscrapers in movies and TV dramas.

That is why he feels that Huang Xu's development still lags behind that of developed countries abroad, and there is a huge gap.

However, everything he saw today showed that his perception was wrong.

It seems to be the same abroad, and there is not much difference between it and China.

This made him a little confused.

On the one hand, it is a worldview that has been developed over years, decades, or even periods of time; on the other hand, it is what one has seen with one's own eyes.

Just as he was looking at the scenery outside the car window and lost in thought, Huang Xu and Huang Wenfu had no intention of disturbing him.

In fact, both of them have gone through similar disenchantment stages and can empathize with each other.

After the two of them fell into a tacit silence, time passed slowly.

However, it did not remain silent forever. After more than a minute of silence, Huang Xu suddenly remembered the situation of the catering company and asked Huang Wenfu.

"Uncle, how many of our directly-operated stores have been transferred out now?"

"how?"

"Finally remembered about the company?"

When Huang Wenfu heard Huang Xu's question, he immediately started to mock.

Since he and Huang Xu agreed to transfer the store and reduce assets in South Korea half a month ago, Huang Xu has once again become a hands-off boss, leaving everything to himself.

Of course, if that were all, he wouldn't have such a strong resentment.

After all, that was how they divided the work before.

But this time, Huang Xu threw everything to himself and ignored him completely, which made him a little angry.

You have to know that that was the transfer of more than 30 stores.

There are too many tedious tasks for him to handle, including evaluating the transfer price, negotiating the contract, and screening the right person to take over.

In addition to this, the company's layoffs and tax declarations also gave him a headache.

However, Huang Xu, as the boss of the company, ignored all these things, which made him inevitably feel resentful.

Even if Huang Xu is his nephew, it would be the same.

Huang Xu listened to his uncle's complaints, smiled embarrassedly, and continued.

"Isn't this my uncle?"

"With you here, what do I have to worry about?"

"You~~, you only know how to say nice things."

Huang Wenfu shook his head helplessly, his words full of doting on Huang Xu.

At the same time, he felt very happy that Huang Xu trusted him.

As a middle-aged man who has been working in society for nearly 20 years, he has a very clear view of the human nature in society.

How many good friends or even relatives have ended up with some unpleasantness after opening a company or a restaurant together.

He felt very happy that Huang Xu still trusted him so much even though the company was so large and involved so much money.

So after sighing, he began to tell the story.

"Now, 13 of the 20 pickled fish restaurants have already negotiated with them and are going through the process and formalities."

"The remaining seven companies now have interested customers and are in communication."

"As for those spicy hot pot restaurants, now..."

"This is progressing quite fast!"

Huang Xu couldn't help but sigh as he listened to his uncle's progress report.

In just over half a month, more than a dozen stores were transferred. This speed is abnormally fast.

Huang Wenfu listened to Huang Xu's sigh and explained modestly, "It's mainly because our business is good and popular."

"And the person your friend introduced was very confident in this business, so it went so smoothly."

"Is it?"

"Then I have to thank Brother Zhongguo properly when I come back!"

Huang Xu felt a little surprised when he heard the news.

Earlier, Kim Jong Kook said that when many artists wanted to join this business, he didn’t take it seriously.

After all, most Korean artists are relatively stingy or mean in real life.

For a store like theirs that has already been built and is doing very well, the price to transfer it is not a small amount.

It would cost at least several billion won.

The huge investments made by these artists were beyond Huang Xu's imagination.

Huang Wenfu didn't know what Huang Xu was surprised about, he just expressed his agreement with Huang Xu's statement.

"You could really thank him."

"I heard from the customers who have done business with you that he has done a lot of promotion for you in the industry."

"Okay, uncle. I'll go find him after I finish my work these few days."

Although he felt a little surprised, Huang Xu still kept this matter in mind.

I will prepare for the next few days and take my father around Korea first. After I am done with the work, I will go to Kim Jong Kook to express my gratitude.

When Huang Wenfu heard what Huang Xu said, he nodded slightly to show his agreement.

But then he looked up at the rearview mirror, then asked Huang Xu in Korean with some hesitation.

"Xiao Xu, what are you planning to do by bringing your dad here this time?"

"Take him out to see the world, travel, and enjoy life?"

"Or do you want to take him to meet your girlfriend?"

"Yes, both."

When Huang Xu heard his uncle Huang Wenfu suddenly ask him in Korean, he quickly answered in Korean.

Then the two began to communicate in Korean.

"My dad has lived in the countryside all his life. Now that I have finally become wealthy, I want to take him out to see the world."

"Of course, the most important thing is to take him to see his daughter-in-law."

"He really should come out for a walk."

Seeing that Huang Xu was so filial, Huang Wenfu nodded with satisfaction and expressed his affirmation.

But then, Huang Wenfu asked Huang Xu.

"So are you going to let Goo Hara and Sunny go meet your dad?"

"Have you thought about how to explain it?"

"No, Sunny didn't show up, only Hal herself."

"Hola herself?"

Huang Wenfu was also stunned after hearing what Huang Xu said.

Although, he was somewhat dissatisfied with the fact that Huang Xu was dating two girlfriends at the same time.

But I am still quite satisfied with the two candidates for my niece's wife, Sunny and Goo Hara.

Now Huang Xu only asked one person to show up. Isn’t that a bit inappropriate?

Then he asked with concern.

"What about Sunny? What should she do?"

"Have you thought about how to explain it to her?"

"Don't worry, this matter has already been discussed."

"Okay then, as long as you guys have discussed it, don't get angry about this."

After hearing Huang Xu say that everything had been discussed, Huang Wenfu was still a little worried, but he didn't say anything.

Although he is Huang Xu's uncle, to be honest, he is just an "outsider".

It is hard to say too much about his love life.

While the two were communicating in Korean, Huang Wensheng, who was thinking nearby, had already woken up from his thoughts.

He frowned and listened to Huang Xu and the other man communicating in a language he couldn't understand, looking a little curious.

After finally waiting for the two to pause in their conversation, he immediately spoke to them.

"What are you communicating about?"

“How can we communicate in a foreign language?”

"Are you discussing something without telling me?"

"Ah, no, just chatting with uncle about some company matters."

Huang Xu looked at his curious father and quickly explained.

Huang Wenfu also nodded slightly, testifying for Huang Xu.

When Huang Wensheng saw this, he did not continue to delve into the matter of the two people communicating in a foreign language, but asked curiously.

"By the way, you two opened a company here, how is it going now?"

"Just now I heard you two say that you want to transfer the store. What's going on?"

"Is there something wrong with the business?"

"Something went wrong."

When Huang Xu saw his father's concerned look, he suddenly had the idea of ​​teasing his father, and then he responded in a low voice.

Huang Wenfu, who was driving in front, just smiled when he heard Huang Xu say this, and had no intention of exposing him.

The final consequence was that Huang Wensheng immediately became anxious after hearing Huang Xu's words.

"Xiao Xu, what's wrong with your business?"

“Is it difficult to handle?”

"How far has it developed now?"

“Since the company is in such a difficult situation, shouldn’t you hurry up and take care of things and think of a solution when you still have time to bring me here?”

"Also, you."

"Dad, don't worry! Things are not what you think."

Hearing his father's series of questions and his anxious look, Huang Xu quickly held his father down and began to explain.

"The problem with our company is not that business is bad, but that it is too good, so it is more difficult."

"Now my uncle and I own the company"

"You damn kid, why are you scaring me for no reason?"

After listening to Huang Xu's explanation, Huang Wensheng finally felt relieved.

Then he hit Huang Xu's shoulder several times in a row to vent his anger.

Just now, he was really frightened by Huang Xu's words, but fortunately it was just a false alarm in the end.

However, after this incident, the loss he felt from having his filter shattered had almost disappeared.

At this time, vehicles have already entered the urban area of ​​Seoul, which is gradually becoming prosperous.

Huang Xu then pointed out the window and began to introduce the scenery and buildings on both sides of the road.

Twenty minutes later, following Huang Xu's introduction, the group of three also arrived at the underground garage of Longshan Apartment.

Then the three of them pushed six or seven suitcases and several large boxes and slowly came to the twelfth floor.

Huang Xu opened the door while introducing the apartment.

But when he opened the door and heard the sound of someone wiping hair inside, he was stunned.

"You~~, why are you here?"
