Siheyuan, Shazhu: I have both parents in this life

Chapter 207 Let's start a security company

When He Yuzhu arrived home, most of his family members had already gone back to their rooms. In Hong Kong, it's impossible to stay cool outside, so all the houses are equipped with electric fans. As a result, they've all gotten into the habit of chatting for a while after dinner before going back to their own rooms.

Back in her room, Xiaoman was comforting the two younger children; He Yaozu wasn't there.

"Where did the boss go?"

“You’re back. He went to Yu Yan’s place and insisted on sleeping with his uncle.”

"is that OK?"

"It's okay, we still have Yuxin and Yuyao."

"Oh, I forgot that the three brothers moved into one room. That's going to be a nightmare that night."

"They all know their limits; at most, they just stay up a little later."

"Aren't these two little ones good?"

"Daughters are well-behaved, sons are mischievous, and then daughters follow suit."

"Thanks a lot."

"It's okay, I'm used to it. I sleep well after my milk at night, and my mom and the others help take care of me during the day, so I'm not tired."

"I've noticed you've been running around outside these past few days. What exactly have you been doing?"

"I'll go see if there's anything I can do, like a factory or a shop."

"Have you decided? Do you have enough money?"

"You don't need to worry about money. Before I came here, I exchanged all the money I had saved for gold. Oh, it's not that much, is it? Things here are much more expensive than in Beijing."

"Yes, let's see."

"No, I'll wait until things calm down outside, then I'll go back to work and help out at home."

"Let's talk about it when the child can walk."

“Brother Zhu, don’t try to tough it out on your own. We’re family. If anything happens, you have to tell us. Yu Shui and I can both go out to work. Aunt Ping has also said that she doesn’t want to stay at home all the time.”

"Yes, once I've made arrangements, I definitely won't let you guys be idle."

"Really?"

"When have I ever lied to you?"

"Great."

"By the way, could you help Yushui with her studies? She can't even get into university. Has she wasted all those years in vocational school?"

“She’s been working for a while now, so it’s normal for her to put down her books.”

"You don't need to speak well of her. Lou Xiao'e has been married for several years and she still managed to pass the exam."

"Fine, I feel sorry for Yushui for having a brother like you."

"I was only doing this for her own good. I just hope she won't blame me for not letting her go to high school."

"By the way, Brother Zhu, did you already know something?"

"No, she didn't study hard back then, and some of her peers had already started working, so her heart had already wandered off."

"what about now?"

"You should know a little about the situation here in Hong Kong. Vocational schools are basically equivalent to high school, and you won't find a good job after graduation."

"That's true. What about Yushui's wedding? She doesn't know anyone here."

“I’ll keep an eye out. I’m also thinking about sending her to university. Instead of us helping her find someone, it’s better for her to go and talk to people herself first, and then we can help her make the selection.”

"Brother Zhu, I've discovered that you're cunning from head to toe."

"How can someone talk about their own man like that?"

"Giggle."

After putting the two kids to sleep, the couple rested. Xiaoman asked He Yuzhu about the situation outside. To be honest, she had been to Hong Kong twice and still didn't know what it was like outside.

He Yuzhu promised her that he would take her to explore Hong Kong properly in the future, and Xiaoman was satisfied.

The next day, He Yuzhu approached A Lang. He wanted to start a security company, so that at least his business would need someone to protect it in the future.

"Boss, many of the security companies are operating privately."

"I just asked if I could register; I want to do it officially."

"can."

"That's fine. Find someone to help me register one. Also, do we have our own lawyer?"

"No, very few people go to court these days."

"You should also inquire about this. It doesn't have to be famous, but it has to be experienced enough."

"Understood, boss. Is there anything else you need?"

"Do you have enough money over there? I went to the refrigerator factory, and Gu Yuanheng was crying poverty to me."

"This is enough for now. Why didn't he say he insisted on buying such a large piece of land? Now he can't even sell it."

"Alright, I don't believe he'll dare to buy it if you don't agree."

"Hehe, we still have some funds left. After all, our factory and shops were basically making money before."

"That's fine. If it's not enough, you should tell me."

"Okay, boss."

"By the way, a security company is being established. Do you have anyone to recommend?"

"Boss, I have a suggestion. Your grandfather's place has a martial arts school, right? We could recruit a group of people to learn martial arts."

"Can you really rely on fists in the outside world now?"

"Under normal circumstances, it's still possible."

"Alright, I'll ask about this first. You go register, and remember to broaden the company's business scope and make it a bit larger. You can add people gradually."

"Boss, should we get a batch of these?" Ah Lang made a gun gesture with his hand.

"I'll figure something out. Get you guys to handle it, and bring me back a bunch of revolvers? For shooting birds, you know?"

"That's the only way we can go; we don't dare to get involved with any ruthless individuals."

"I know."

"However, if the boss really sets up a security company, Huo Sheng will definitely be willing to cooperate. Their ships always run into trouble at sea. If we have big equipment, we can ask for a higher price."

"We'll talk about it after you register. The people we recruit will need training, and we might need to buy some land to build a training base."

"Still buying? Prices are dropping so fast these days, it's not worth it for the boss."

"It seems you've really started paying attention to land prices lately."

"Yes, you wouldn't believe it until you see it. It's shockingly low, like prices at rock-bottom levels, and they're still falling."

"This is only temporary. Let's deal with the land issue later."

"The boss also told me to keep an eye on Changjiang Plastics, but there doesn't seem to be any activity yet, although their plastic flowers are really selling well."

"Why are you moved?"

"Yes, it is quite profitable, and the technology involved is not high, as the equipment and labor are cheap."

"Looks like you've learned something these past few years, you know about the technical aspects now."

"I have to learn it, otherwise how can I help the boss manage the business?"

"I haven't rewarded you yet since I got back. You've done a great job these past few years. So, what do you want?"

"No need, no need, I've made money these past few years."

"Haha, how about this, I'll reward you with a new car. Do you want a sedan or a Jeep?"

"Foreign goods?"

"Do you want the domestically produced one?"

"Domestic? Boss, you must be joking. What good cars can domestically made cars possibly have?" Ah Lang, who had initially shown some interest, immediately lost interest.

"I'm not afraid to tell you that I'm the factory manager of a car factory in the country."

"Huh?" Ah Lang's mouth dropped open. He had thought the boss was from a special department.

"There's no need for me to lie to you. Find me a warehouse, and when the truck arrives, you can take a look."

"Okay." He wasn't interested in Ah Lang's creations made by others, but he really wanted to see what the one made by He Yuzhu looked like.

After settling Ah Lang in, He Yuzhu went out to the newspaper office that Xu Damao had mentioned. At lunchtime, he saw Yu Zecheng, who was still wearing glasses but now dressed in a suit. His hair had turned quite white, indicating that he was under a lot of pressure there.

He Yuzhu also surveyed the area around the newspaper office and didn't find anyone suspicious. It seemed that the old man had cleaned up the mess quite efficiently when he came over.

After watching it, He Yuzhu went to the martial arts school and asked his second uncle about the employment situation of the disciples of the martial arts schools in the surrounding area.

Except for a very few, most people want to learn martial arts to find a good job. Of course, a good job means earning more money. As for what kind of work they do, most of them are thugs or help others guard their venues.

These days, there are many people learning martial arts in Hong Kong. If you don't know a few moves, you can't do these jobs. Some people aspire to be stuntmen, and making movies and TV series is also a way out. However, the requirements there are higher. It's not enough to just know how to fight; you also have to fight well and act well.

That's why many martial arts schools don't teach their students well; their moves are all killing techniques, not very aesthetically pleasing.

"Zhu Zi, why are you asking this?"

"I want to start a security company."

"This is very dangerous."

"High risk, high reward. Doesn't it take a lot of risk to become a thug?"

"That's true. When are you hiring? I have a few apprentices who are just sitting at home doing nothing."

"Let's wait a while. I don't want anyone with bad character. I'll still conduct assessments. Not just anyone can come." "Don't worry, those with character issues have already been expelled from the sect."

“Okay, my second uncle can also ask around at other martial arts schools for me.”

"Martial arts schools are all competitive, I'll give it a try."

"The person who introduced you has become the one who takes a cut of your profits."

"What are you saying? Do you still consider me your second uncle?"

"That's two different things. You also have a family to support, and you'll still need to take on apprentices in the future, right? You're relying on this pharmacy for everything."

"Ah, business is tough. It's hard to find good apprentices."

"How's your Tai Chi practice going? Want to spar with me?"

"No need?"

“Anyway, you’re free, let’s go, let’s have a go at it on the roof.” Chen Haokun grabbed He Yuzhu’s arm and pulled him up to the roof.

He Yuzhu had no choice but to follow him up to the rooftop.

As a result, the uncle and nephew sparred for a while, and Chen Haokun was full of frustration. He Yuzhu did not use any other boxing style this time, it was indeed Tai Chi, but even though he knew how to defend and how to counter, he just couldn't keep up with the speed. Chen Haokun was very depressed.

"If you had been born a few decades earlier, you would definitely have been a grandmaster."

"Please don't flatter me. I know my own situation perfectly well."

"Don't be modest. Being physically stronger than the average person is also part of your strength."

"I admit that, but as for martial arts, my Tai Chi is not as good as yours, Second Uncle."

“You’re making me even more embarrassed. I’ve been practicing for over thirty years, while you’ve only been practicing for a few years, and you’re just like me, practicing boxing every day.”

"Hehe, it's only slightly better with the daily portion."

"That's all? You have no idea how many martial artists envy this. No, you've really annoyed me. You'll have to drink with me."

"Just say you want to drink, don't beat around the bush."

"Your father said your cooking is better than his, aren't you going to show off your skills today?"

"Alright, I wouldn't dare disobey your orders."

"You go and make it. I'll call your uncle. What's the point of two people drinking together?"

"Okay, I'm going to the kitchen."

He Yuzhu cooks while his second aunt watches. He Yuzhu isn't afraid to learn from her. Even if you watch, you can't make it taste the same without special guidance, unless you have a special talent for cooking.

When the dishes were served, the two uncles almost drooled. He Yuzhu was serving Sichuan cuisine today, and it smelled amazing.

My aunt had already prepared a portion in the kitchen and went to eat it herself.

He Yuzhu's second uncle brought two bottles of local liquor. When He Yuzhu saw that it was distilled liquor, he said directly, "I have two bottles that I brought from China in my car. You guys wait a bit."

"You should have said so earlier, otherwise I wouldn't have brought out this wine and embarrassed myself."

"What kind of wine?" the eldest uncle asked.

"You'll find out later."

He Yuzhu went to the car, but actually took out two bottles of Fenjiu and two bottles of Xifengjiu from his spatial storage.

He turned around and went upstairs. His two uncles saw him and said in unison, "Why do you keep such good wine in your car? Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?"

"It's okay, I placed it carefully, it won't break."

"Quick, quick, open a bottle of Fenjiu and let us have a taste. It's been so many years since we've had Fenjiu."

"okay."

After finishing a bottle of Fenjiu and a bottle of Xifeng, the two uncles refused to drink anymore. They each took a bottle and divided the remaining liquor among themselves. The second uncle then put his distilled liquor on the table.

The drinking session ended when the two uncles finished their rounds. The second aunt came out to clean up, and the eldest uncle went straight to sleep in the old man's room.

He Yuzhu drove back home. These days, no one checks for drunk driving, and there were hardly any people on the road, so He Yuzhu drove like a maniac.

Two days later, Ah Lang had the warehouse ready. He Yuzhu went there and put in a B-class South China Leopard 2 and a B-class Mercedes-Benz M100. Then he asked Ah Lang to pick up the cars.

Ah Lang was stunned when he got there. Such a beautiful car was a domestic car?

He had never seen the car logo before, and the bright BJ South China Leopard-2 and BJ Mercedes-Benz M100 models were clearly domestically made. The instrument panel and other parts were also in Chinese characters, and even simplified Chinese characters.

He didn't dare drive them, and instead found a car to transport the two vehicles to the He family villa.

He Yushui, with her sharp eyes, ran over and asked, "Ah Lang, how did you manage to get a car from our factory here?"

"Your factory?"

"Yes, the Sijiucheng Automobile Manufacturing Plant. My brother and sister-in-law used to work there. My brother was even the factory manager."

"The boss brought this back." Upon hearing this, Ah Lang realized that it was indeed as the boss had said; it seemed that the whole family worked at the car factory.

"Ah, my brother got it. I'll go ask him." He Yushui said as she ran towards the villa.

After He Yuzhu came out, he asked, "How could that be, Ah Lang? Have you made your choice yet?"

"Boss, I don't dare to take this car. I'll go and get the license plates put on it for you. Also, could you remove the model number from here? It's not appropriate to drive it around like this."

"Sure, just pry it off and give it to me, consider it a souvenir."

"it is good."

"If you really don't want it, I'll just drive that old car. This one is for the boss; it's more prestigious to drive this one."

"Okay, I'll give it to you later."

"thank you boss."

"Alright, you're so fixated on it, why don't you try opening it?"

"Okay, then I'll try out the cars we produce ourselves."

Ah Lang wasn't quite used to it yet, as the car was left-hand drive, while most cars in Hong Kong are right-hand drive.

Of course, as an experienced driver, he quickly got used to it and fell in love with it after driving it a couple of times, especially the Jeep, which has good visibility and is not picky about roads.

Of course, there were also things in the car that he didn't recognize, such as the car radio and various indicator lights.

He Yuzhu didn't even need to teach them; He Yuxin and He Yuyao insisted on learning to drive, and He Yuzhu didn't object and let them go up.

They had ridden in this car many times and were naturally very familiar with everything on it. After the introduction, Ah Lang wanted to get out of the car immediately and ask He Yuzhu if the boss still had this car, because it could make a lot of money.

Of course, this car can only be sold through grey market channels, because there are no formal sales channels for goods in China. Even so, Ah Lang could predict that it would be in high demand.

Ah Lang got out of the car and asked what was on his mind. He Yu shook her head and said, "Forget about getting supplies."

"Oh." Ah Lang was a little disappointed.

"However, we can find a way to make it ourselves."

"Build it yourself? Boss, are you kidding me? This is a car, not a household appliance."

"I'm not kidding. Of course, we don't have that capability right now, but we will in the future."

"I trust my boss."

"Don't tell anyone where this car came from."

"I definitely won't tell; that would just cause trouble for the boss."

"It's good to know."

Getting a license plate isn't difficult; these days the regulations aren't as strict. But this car is too eye-catching when you drive it around, so naturally people will ask about it. Ah Lang just says it's modified, but he won't say what brand it is.

Of course, it cost money to register the vehicle. There are Chinese characters on the engine and chassis, and the registration information is all done using initials.

By August, the street security had deteriorated further, and He Yuzhu heard that someone had even stormed a police station.

Police used tear gas and fired shots, arresting a number of people before things calmed down.

The store was open, but business wasn't good, and He Yuzhu knew he would have to hold on for a while longer.

He took out all the Hong Kong dollars from his storage space and gave them to Ah Lang to prepare for the more difficult times to come.

The security company has been registered. Coach He Yuzhu didn't even need to hire one; Wang Cuiping was readily available. This was because Wang Cuiping asked He Yuzhu to hire a security company after learning that he wanted to do it.

She felt like she was growing mold all over her body after staying at home for more than half a year.

As for security, it was naturally a group of young men, only about twenty, all of whom were carefully selected from the martial arts school street.

When these guys saw that they were assigned a middle-aged woman as their instructor, they immediately refused to continue.

Wang Cuiping didn't tolerate them. She first subdued the group of kids with her fists, and then subdued them again with her marksmanship.

The training ground was temporarily set up near the refrigerator factory. The target practice vehicle was used to transport the vehicle to a wasteland. He Yuzhu did not provide rifles, but only a few pistols, which were kept by Wang Cuiping.

Even He Yuxin and He Yuyao, who insisted on going along to see, were shocked. They had never known that their Aunt Ping was so powerful. They had never dealt with the police before, but this was too amazing.

They had sparred with the newcomers, with some wins and some losses, but Wang Cuiping was basically a pushover. They had only ever seen that kind of strength in their older brother.

They even went so far as to verify with Wang Siyu to see if the girl had inherited her mother's immense strength, but to their disappointment, Wang Siyu was just an ordinary girl.

However, they didn't get away with it either, because that girl had a better talent for Tai Chi than they did, and she had secretly practiced with Xiaoman before, so naturally they got a beating.

Of course, as young men, they would definitely give in a little, otherwise, if their older brothers found out, they would definitely be in big trouble.

Since they couldn't go to school anyway, the two boys started training with Wang Cuiping every day after that. He Daqing and his wife didn't object; these days, it's always good to have more self-defense tools.

With the two brothers gone, Wang Siyu lost her playmates. Before she could even feel down, her task arrived: to learn English. Her teacher was her older sister, Xiaoman.

She also had a classmate named He Yushui. The two girls were so depressed; they also wanted to go out and have some fun.
