Reborn as a small European country
Chapter 180 Chinese Association
Chapter 180 Chinese American Association (Fifth Watch)
The power of money is huge, and everything was ready in more than an hour. This villa was successfully assigned to Kate, and it was also her first property in Hong Kong City.
Kate walked around the room with great interest and pointed out where she wanted to modify and how to modify it. Joseph cooperated with her and recorded everything tacitly.
"So tired!"
Lying on the bed, Kate felt lazy and didn't want to get up. Her dry mouth and sore legs were the consequences of pointing out everything in the villa. Joseph was no better than him, but his sore arms were the only thing he had ever recorded for such a long time. .
"Here, your results."
The densely packed dozens of pages are all Kate's opinions, and Kate is a little embarrassed to see these, after all, she is well aware of the exhaustion of recording so many things.
"Where are we going at noon today?"
When Lin Zhisen left, Joseph asked him to hire an Audi to leave at the door, but it was only a temporary car. Since he bought a property here, he naturally needed a vehicle.
"There is a restaurant not far away. When I came, I wrote down the location. After lunch, we went to buy a car."
Looking at Kate who was in high spirits instantly, Joseph discovered for the first time that she was so keen on buying a home of her own, maybe all women are like this!
Although the Nord Palace is also her future home, but there are many housekeepers and servants, it is probably difficult to give her such a design and give her advice on how to plan her own home, which is precisely what can be done in Hong Kong City.
"I guess, in the future, you won't want to travel frequently to Nord and Hong Kong City!"
Squinting her eyes, Kate couldn't deny Joseph's words: "If I have time, I will naturally come and take a look. After all, Nord...is too unfree."
Yes!People can recognize her casually when she goes out there, but it is different in Hong Kong City. There are only a handful of people who can really recognize her, and they can go shopping and buy whatever they want.
Maybe this kind of life is not what you want, but you and I have no choice!
The word love will never appear in Joseph and Kate. In fact, most of the nobles are like this. Their marriage interests are more important than anything else. Naturally, there are Joseph's reasons and Nord's benefits in marrying Kate.
Kate is capable, but does not have a deep background, and has a very bad relationship with her uncle, which allows her to help Joseph deal with the country, while Joseph does not have to worry about any foreign relatives.In terms of status, a marquis is worse, but it is barely qualified.
If Nord was still the weak Nord back then, then it would not matter who Joseph married, but what Nord lacks now is the foundation, commoner women are not suitable, and royal women have to worry about her family. A woman who is not low and has a complicated family status.
For others, Kate is worse, but for Joseph, he and Kate are undoubtedly a match made in heaven, age may be an exception.
"You come?"
Looking at the fiery red Audi in front of him, how could Joseph not know that it was because of Kate?So he simply left the driving position to Kate. It was the first time he knew that Kate could actually drive.
Kate didn't hesitate either. She got in the car, closed the door, put it in gear, and accelerated the pedal. Along with the roaring Audi, she trotted out of the small road in the mansion area. Joseph, who put on his seat belt, didn't expect Kate's meek and dignified character to have such a side.
"Some surprises?"
"A bit."
Kate smiled triumphantly. In fact, people who act decisively have violent personalities. Joseph also understood this truth after careful consideration, so he no longer cared about Kate's wildness.
There are many rich people in the shallow water area, so an Audi trot will not attract too much attention, but when Kate gets out of the car, Kate in casual clothes is still very attractive, and many eyes are fixed on here in an instant.But when they saw Joseph, they also looked back at the same time.
Not having a male partner is suitable for aggressive gazes, but having a male partner is provocative. Women who appear in Repulse Bay and have hundreds of thousands of sports cars are not something they can or are unwilling to provoke.
This is……
Glancing at the hundreds of club members in the restaurant, Kate's footsteps suddenly paused, and Joseph pulled Kate through the door with great interest instead of nothing.
"gentlemen……"
"Don't restaurants welcome customers?"
"Welcome, but..."
"Joseph."
The waiter looked embarrassed, and Kate didn't want to cause trouble, so she pulled Joseph to leave, but this was the first time Joseph saw such a situation in reality, so she didn't want to leave.
"It's just a negotiation, and it doesn't affect other people's meals."
One of the elders in the middle who were clearly divided into three waves suddenly opened his mouth. Seeing this, the service staff stopped blocking them and let Joseph and Kate in.However, a few young people came in after him, but the service staff wanted to go forward but were forced back with a glance. The old man who spoke obviously also saw this scene, gave Joseph a meaningful look and shook his head to signal the service staff to let him in.
"Third brother, this is against the rules."
"There are no rules or irregularities. If there are distinguished guests, do we still have to keep them out?"
The other old man was obviously dissatisfied with Joseph and the guards entering the door, but the old man who allowed Joseph to enter the door didn't pay much attention, and officially opened the scene after saying a word.
"We old fellows already know the things about the two of you. What should you decide for yourself? Do you follow the old rules or the new rules?"
……
In the corner not far away, the service staff paid attention to the situation over there and at the same time handed over the menu to Joseph. This time, Joseph didn’t have much interest in ordering. They are all placed in negotiations not far away.
"This is a community negotiation, and it is indeed much more peaceful than it was a few decades ago."
"Society? Mafia?"
"It's not the mafia, it's the local community in Hong Kong City. Compared with the mafia, they may have a bigger name, but it's just too scattered."
The Chinese community has always had a profound reputation, and even Kate had heard of it, so she covered her mouth in surprise, not understanding why she encountered such a terrifying existence in such a small place.
Of course, she misunderstood what Joseph meant. Although these also belonged to the number one Chinese community, they were just branches, not as terrifying and powerful as the legends said.
"Could it be that the Chinese community carries such weapons?"
Knives, guns and sticks are very deterrent to civilians, but it would be funny if they are hung on Chinese communities. Kate thinks that they should have armed helicopters and heavy machine guns like some communities and armed groups in the United States and Mexico.
"Gangcheng is still very strict about gun management. Generally, sticks are used more often. Even machetes and the like are not too frequent, let alone guns."
The guards were not nervous, and they knew something about such negotiations. Since they were sitting at the negotiating table, especially with such a middleman, the possibility of doing something on the spot was very small.
"300 million, the old taro paid 300 million, I don't know about it."
"300 million! Why don't you go and rob! Impossible, at most 100 million, there is no more."
"No, if not, let your old mother enter the Huangpu River to feed the fish."
"If you dare to threaten me, hit me!"
"Just hit!"
There was a clatter of thunderbolts, tables, chairs and tea sets rang together, the guards were secretly preparing, Kate was a little worried, as for Joseph... he sat there peacefully like a normal person.
For example, he was not the only one like Joseph, and the old men seemed to have expected it and joked casually, ignoring it at all.
After a little calmer, one of the old men said: "200 million, if you don't agree, start a fight, and invite the police to go around with you."
What is thunder and rain, the situation at this time is like this, there is no movement between the two sides after a casual sentence, Kate looked at the group of people cursing and leaving with a face full of disbelief, she was very shocked, she didn't understand why she almost moved just now The two groups of people who joined hands left without incident.
"Mr. Joseph, I didn't expect to welcome you as a distinguished guest."
The old man who spoke at the beginning walked over with a smile on his face, and kept apologizing as he spoke, saying that Joseph should not be neglected because of some things in the world.
"It's just a coincidence that the old man knows me?"
"I also attended the governor's banquet, but there were too many people around you to get in."
The conversation between the two and the other old men who did not leave also heard that the old man named Third Brother was the highest among them, otherwise he would not have been invited to the banquet by the Governor of Hong Kong, so they looked at Joseph in surprise , to guess his identity.
"Sir's relationship with Hongmen."
"Three teachings at home and abroad, Hongmen is a family. I used to live in the United States. After returning to Hong Kong, my brothers gave me face and did some mediation work."
It seems that he is also one of the big bosses, Joseph nodded secretly looking up to the old man.Don't underestimate that the other party is just a gang member. Their influence in the world is also extraordinary, and ordinary high-ranking government officials should be courteous.For example, although a status like Joseph is not afraid, there is no need to provoke enemies.
"Gangcheng is a place suitable for retirement, and you may even have the opportunity to go back to your hometown to take a look in your lifetime."
Joseph's words can be regarded as speaking to the heart of the old man, what is the purpose of coming back from the United States?Isn't it just a chance to be buried in his hometown?If this is not the case, the United States is the main place for his foundation.
"Repulse Bay is a good place. Mr. Joseph bought a property here?"
Looking at the parking direction of the Audi Trot outside the window, the old man knew that Joseph came down from the mountain. If this is the case, it can only mean that Joseph has just bought a property here or visited relatives and friends.However, the latter is unlikely. After all, some old residents on the mountain know each other, and no one is qualified to be Joseph's friend.
