Rebirth of Hong Kong Island, leading the technology war

Chapter 213 The yacht is broken, so let's change it

Chen Yifei, Zhang Xiaorou and Li Shuning were also there.

Hu Jiangshan put these things aside for the time being and went over to say hello to Hu Rongguo and the others.

Hu Jiangshan pulled Hu Rongguo aside and whispered, "Rongguo, we're in some trouble."

Hu Rongguo's heart skipped a beat: "What? Has the situation changed? Can I still go?"

Hu Jiangshan said: "My yacht broke down yesterday and I needed to replace the engine. They said they could have replaced it before today, but when I came here to check, it still hadn't been done."

Hu Rongguo looked at the small yacht, which was the Seahorse.

There were several mechanics and repairmen working on the boat, indeed replacing the engine.

No wonder Hu Jiangshan was waiting in the lounge yesterday, it turned out that the yacht broke down.

Hu Rongguo scratched his head: "This matter is a bit troublesome."

Hu Jiangshan asked: "Where is the ship you went out to sea yesterday?"

Hu Rongguo sighed: "That was a boat rented by the company and it has been returned."

Hu Jiangshan asked in a low voice: "Where is your yacht?"

Hu Rongguo rolled his eyes: "You think every family has a yacht? Mine doesn't."

Hu Jiangshan was very surprised.

Hu Rongguo does not have a yacht, but doesn’t his father and grandfather have one?

But this is hard to say. Not all rich people like to go to sea and buy yachts.

There are many people who don't have yachts but have private jets.

Hu Jiangshan said, "If all else fails, just rent a yacht. The marina should have such a service. Rongguo, you chat with them for a while. I'll go to the management department to ask."

Hu Rongguo couldn't think of a better solution, so he nodded.

Hu Jiangshan turned his head to look at the crew, then walked towards the yacht club management department.

To be honest, this is really Hu Jiangshan's fault. He didn't confirm it in advance. If he had known earlier, he would have taken them there a day or two later.

Now that they have come, we can’t let them go back.

But this is an easy thing to do. At worst, we can just rent a yacht here. It doesn’t matter whether it costs money or not. As long as everyone is happy, that’s fine.

But when people are unlucky, even drinking water will get stuck between their teeth.

When Hu Jiangshan arrived at the management department and asked, he learned that there were only a few yachts available for rent at the yacht club pier, only three. One of them was broken and was under repair, and the other two had already gone out to sea.

Well, it seems this approach is not feasible.

What to do next? Is there any other solution?
Of course there are. Hu Yingxiang owns several other yachts, each of which is bigger and more impressive than the Seahorse.

Hu Jiangshan thought about calling his grandfather Hu Yingxiang. Although it was a bit abrupt, Hu Jiangshan had been performing well recently and had important things to do. He was helping Hu Rongguo, so the old man should agree.

At the same time, in the yacht club lounge, Hu Rongguo was chatting in a low voice with the crew.

Hu Rongguo did not tell the whole story, but just said that Hu Jiangshan's boat was broken and he went to borrow a yacht.

Wang Qiu Ming asked with concern: "Manager Hu, should I be able to borrow it?"

Hu Rongguo smiled slightly: "Of course he can borrow it, he is Hu Jiangshan."

When Zhang Xiaorou heard this, she couldn't help but roll her eyes and coughed twice.

Chen Yifei glanced at the assistant, feeling both angry and amused.

Zhang Xiaorou whispered to Chen Yifei, "What if Hu Jiangshan can't borrow the yacht?"

Chen Yifei said: "How is it possible? How could he not be able to borrow it?"

"That's possible. He's not reliable."

Chen Yifei smiled and shook her head.

To be honest, it is hard to say whether Hu Jiangshan is reliable or not, but Chen Yifei still feels that Hu Jiangshan is not the kind of person who talks nonsense.

As they were talking, a man came into the lounge.

The man was of medium height, but had dark skin, sharp eyes, and looked like a tough guy.

Hu Rongguo looked up and found that he actually recognized the person who came in. It was Zhao Quan, Hu Yingxiang's bodyguard.

Hu Rongguo was surprised to see Zhao Quan here.

Unless there is something special, Zhao Quan would not come here alone.

After Zhao Quan came in, he looked around, found Hu Rongguo, and walked over.

Hu Rongguo stood up and waved to Zhao Quan.

Zhao Quan has a very high status in the Hu family, and no one in the Hu family dares to neglect him. Neglecting Zhao Quan is almost the same as neglecting Hu Yingxiang.

When the younger generations of the Hu family see Zhao Quan, they have to respectfully call him "Uncle".

Wang Qiu Ming looked at Zhao Quan, stood up, and asked curiously, "Manager Hu, who is that?"

Hu Rongguo gave a brief introduction, and Wang Qiumin suddenly understood, and at the same time he had more respect for Zhao Quan.

Zhao Quan should be considered the person closest to Hu Yingxiang. In a sense, his status is no lower than that of Hu Yingxiang's son.

Zhao Quan walked over and exchanged a few brief words with Hu Rongguo, then looked around.

Hu Rongguo couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Zhao, who are you looking for?"

Zhao Quan asked back, "Where is Young Master Hu Jiangshan?"

Hu Rongguo suddenly realized: "He went to the Yacht Club Marina Management Department. Uncle Zhao, you are looking for him..."

Zhao Quan said, "It's like this. The old man heard that the yacht used by Mr. Hu was broken, so he asked me to arrange for another one."

Hu Rongguo was stunned: "Another one?"

"Yes, the old man said that the boats under his name can be used at will. I can give you full authorization."

Hu Rongguo finally reacted: "Oh, that's great, I'll call Brother Jiangshan back right away."

Before Hu Rongguo took out his cell phone, Hu Jiangshan entered the lounge.

Seeing Zhao Quan was also here, Hu Jiangshan showed a surprised expression.

He was just about to call Hu Yingxiang, but he didn't expect Zhao Quan to arrive first.

Zhao Quan came here to convey Hu Yingxiang's intention.

After listening to Hu Rongguo's simple explanation of the matter, Hu Jiangshan understood that Hu Yingxiang was truly a good grandfather who doted on his grandson. Even though they had never met, he had always been paying attention to Hu Jiangshan's every move.

Yesterday, Hu Jiangshan’s yacht broke down and the news reached Hu Yingxiang’s ears before evening.

Including Hu Rongguo asking Hu Jiangshan for help and making an appointment to go to General Island today.

Hu Yingxiang was fully aware of the fact that the Seahorse had not been repaired to this day, so he asked Zhao Quan to come over to help Hu Jiangshan out of his urgent need.

I have to say, it’s great to have a grandfather like Hu Yingxiang. He is simply the greatest and most powerful support.

Of course, Zhao Quan was a timely help.

Hu Jiangshan said, "Uncle Zhao, please thank Grandpa for me. Thank you for making this trip. Thank you for your help."

Zhao Quan waved his hand and said, "Master Hu, you don't have to thank me. This is what I should do. By the way, if nothing else, let's go and decide which ship to use."

Now Zhao Quan's attitude towards Hu Jiangshan is surprisingly good.

In fact, this is very different from before.

Although Hu Jiangshan is the grandson of Hu Yingxiang, Zhao Quan has never given Hu Jiangshan a good look before and has always had a stern face.

But at this moment, when Zhao Quan was communicating with Hu Jiangshan, the lines on his face were much softer.

Hu Jiangshan turned to Hu Rongguo and said, "Rongguo, come with me."

Hu Rongguo nodded: "Okay, no problem."

Hu Rongguo said something to Wang Qiumin, then he, Hu Jiangshan and Zhao Quan left the lounge.

At this time, only the crew members were left.

Everyone started chatting at once, with a hint of excitement in their words.

This is no wonder, as they finally got to see the domineering power of Hong Kong's wealthy families.

In the past, people’s impressions of Hong Kong’s wealthy families only existed in legends or were based on imagination.

Seeing it now, I find it really lives up to its reputation.

Take the Hu family for example, they can easily afford several yachts.

If one boat breaks down, you can use another one. If it breaks down again, you can replace it with another one. It’s really luxurious.

In fact, to be honest, the Hu family cannot even make it into the first echelon of Hong Kong's wealthy families, at least they are not one of the four major families in Hong Kong.

Of course, the Hu family was quite powerful before, even surpassing the Huo family by half a head, and almost on par with the four major families, but in recent years, the Hu family has indeed declined.

But a lean camel is still bigger than a horse. A wealthy family is still a wealthy family after all. Their background alone is not comparable to that of ordinary wealthy families.

Zhang Xiaorou whispered, "The Hu family is really rich. I wonder how many yachts they have."

Chen Yifei said calmly: "It should be indispensable."

Zhang Xiaorou stuck out her tongue. She originally thought that Hu Jiangshan might make a fool of himself this time, but unexpectedly he became famous and demonstrated the power of a rich man.

It can be seen that Hu Jiangshan, this prodigal son, has a very high status in the Hu family.

A moment later, Hu Xiaorou and Hu Guorong came back.

The yacht had been chosen, and after chatting for a while in the lounge, everyone went to the yacht's berth together.

Everyone was stunned. What a huge ship!

This is a three-decker yacht of top brand, named ABOSE 73 luxury flying bridge yacht.

It is 22 meters long and nearly 6 meters wide. It can accommodate up to 18 people and has four cabins, all with bathrooms.

The cruising speed can reach sixteen knots and the maximum speed can reach twenty-one knots.

These parameters are not the most eye-catching, after all, they are not intuitive. The key is that the appearance of this yacht is really unique.

As the name suggests, the yacht has a very spacious flying bridge designed like a spaceship.

Not to mention the luxury, even the upper deck is equipped with a side sofa and an elegant wine cabinet, while the terrace at the stern is furnished with multifunctional furniture, providing an ideal place to relax and enjoy.

The bow deck area is equipped with sofas and sunbathing platforms, which can serve as an excellent seaside leisure space.

The price of this yacht is also quite astonishing. Converted into Chinese yuan, it is 35 million, which is equivalent to 40 million Hong Kong dollars.

As a well-known director in the industry, Wang Qiu Ming has seen the world.

However, such a luxurious yacht still opened Wang Qiumin's eyes.

Wang Qiu Ming was like this, and the other crew members were even more amazed, stunned and dumbfounded.

Even Zhang Xiaorou was speechless for a moment, her jaw almost dropping to the ground.

But to be honest, this yacht is not the largest one of the Hu family.

Hu Jiangshan is now a more rational person with scientific thinking. He chooses things based on practicality, and everything else is secondary.

Hu Rongguo was a little surprised by Hu Jiangshan's choice. He thought Hu Jiangshan would choose the largest one.

The reason is simple, it makes you look wealthy.

Unexpectedly, Hu Jiangshan chose a medium-sized and relatively more exquisite yacht.

In fact, Hu Rongguo also wanted to choose this ship, which is very suitable for this voyage. After all, there are not many people in the crew, so a too large ship is not needed.

Not only do large ships consume more fuel, but they also have a relatively slow speed.

This was what surprised Hu Rongguo. He had never thought that his opinions and preferences would be consistent with Hu Jiangshan.

Hu Rongguo could only sigh that Hu Jiangshan had indeed changed, and the change was huge.

When everyone boarded the boat, they could not help looking around, just like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

Chen Yifei, on the other hand, was calm and composed. She stood on the front deck, looking at the scenery and the seagulls, as if she was on vacation.

Zhang Xiaorou came over and said, "This yacht is amazing. As expected of a rich man, the things he enjoys are different from those of ordinary people."

Chen Yifei smiled but said nothing.

In the end, this little girl Zhang Xiaorou was conquered by money.

No wonder, the impact was too great.

Of course, Chen Yifei is also a rich person, but she doesn't show off. She can't even drive a car, let alone buy a yacht or a private jet. She has no desire for these things at all.

In Zhang Xiaorou's eyes, Chen Yifei's life was exactly the same as hers.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaorou pulled Chen Yifei's sleeve again.

"what happened?"

"Look, he's in the cab."

"……who?"

Chen Yifei turned her head and saw that Zhang Xiaorou was talking about Hu Jiangshan.

Hu Jiangshan was seen in the cab, with his head down, touching the operating table from time to time, as if he was studying how to drive a yacht.

Zhang Xiaorou whispered, "No way, Hu Jiangshan can drive a yacht? That's probably too much."

Chen Yifei was also a little puzzled.

Yachting is not an easy thing to get started with.

It's not a problem to play around in the vast ocean, but this is a dock, and you need to leave the port and dock, which requires experience and meticulous operation.

No matter how rich they are, once they buy a yacht, they will hire crew members to drive it. Few of them drive it themselves.

Of course, except for wealthy adventurers.

Is Hu Jiangshan just trying to show off his bravery?
It shouldn't happen, that would be simply playing with fire. At least Hu Jiangshan now doesn't seem like such a fool.

Although Chen Yifei thought so, she was still a little worried and watched Hu Jiangshan's every move.

At this moment, Hu Jiangshan operated the pull rod, and with a few noises, the yacht actually moved.

Oh my God, Hu Jiangshan is really driving a yacht!
A moment later, the yacht slowly and smoothly weighed anchor, sailed out of the berth, and then steadily sailed out of the dock area and into the sea.

Zhang Xiaorou couldn't help but say, "Oh, Hu Jiangshan really knows how to sail! You can't judge a person by his appearance, and you can't measure the depth of the ocean by a bucket."

Chen Yifei breathed a sigh of relief: “So don’t underestimate others.”

"Okay, okay, Yifei, you are absolutely right."

Soon, Hu Jiangshan set the route, then executed the automatic driving mode, and then walked out of the cab.

It was only then that Hu Jiangshan discovered that Chen Yifei was also here.

Hu Jiangshan hesitated for a moment, but still greeted Chen Yifei.

However, Zhang Xiaorou still looked at Hu Jiangshan with vigilance, which made him somewhat embarrassed.
