Chapter 66 A Friend Comes from Afar
A lot happened in 1991. Last month, news came from Shanghai that the Nanpu Bridge was completed and opened to traffic; and on Christmas Day, the eldest brother split up.
The new world was released as scheduled, and on the day of its release, it became a sensation in East and Southeast Asia, where people had never seen a movie like it before.
Zhang San looked at the two and a half women in the room. He didn't like holidays, regardless of whether they were Eastern or Western. In his previous life, he didn't like holidays either, because he had no relatives.
"Meitian, it's almost Chinese New Year, I'm giving you a holiday so you can go home and visit your family."
After Zhang San finished speaking, he went upstairs, looking somewhat lonely.
Guan Meiren asked, "What's wrong with him?" This was directed at Chai Xiaofen. He Meitian looked completely bewildered and naturally couldn't get any answers.
"Maybe he doesn't have any relatives?" Chai Xiaofen had just told some things about Zhang San when she finished speaking, which may have aroused a woman's innate maternal instincts.
"Oh, I didn't expect him to be so pitiful. He's an orphan, and his wife died not long after he got married." After saying that, Rosamund Kwan immediately added, "I'll go comfort him."
She went upstairs without looking back. Chai Xiaofen and He Meitian exchanged a glance and knew that this woman had ill intentions.
"Sweetie, the boss gave you a day off. Are you going back?"
"And you, Sister Xiaofen?"
Chai Xiaofen felt a little embarrassed when He Meitian asked her this. She said, "My mommy... sigh, never mind; I can't go home, I'm still grateful to the boss."
Just as they were talking, the door opened and three foreigners, one man and two women, entered.
"Hi, Ida, where's Stephen?"
"Allen, when did you arrive? He's upstairs, I'll go call him." Chai Xiaofen paused as she was about to go upstairs, and said to He Meitian, "Xiaotian, this is Stephen's brother-in-law, Allen, and that's his girlfriend, Jessica, and that... um, is Helen."
"This is Meitian, he's...that friend. Okay, I'll go call Stephen now."
I never expected them to come all the way from Tokyo; they must have a really good relationship, otherwise they wouldn't have come at this time.
"Wow, Stephen has really made it big. This place is amazing, so much better than those tiny houses in those island nations."
"I love it here, it's so great."
"I'll buy you one. Houses like these aren't expensive here, just over ten million US dollars."
Zhang San came downstairs with a smile, followed by Guan Meiren, whose face was slightly flushed, and Chai Xiaofen.
"Alan, it's so great to see you! Merry Christmas!"
He went up and hugged Allen warmly, then hugged Jessica, but gave Helen a somewhat awkward hug.
"Merry Christmas!"
After everyone sat down, Zhang San said, "I've bought a few more villas nearby; we can be neighbors."
"Wow, Stephen, you're investing in real estate here?"
Zhang San shrugged and said, "I've been here a lot lately. I own a lot of property here. After Christmas, I'm going to the mainland."
"Has Jim contacted you?" Allen asked. "There seems to be some dramatic change up north."
"They've split up. Jim has a shipment coming over after New Year's Day, and I need to go receive it."
That place is too crazy, and Jim is too crazy. It makes Zhang San feel a little uneasy, but there's nothing he can do. Once he's on board, there's no turning back. They're giving him too much.
"You'll be staying here for a while. I'll arrange for someone to take care of you. But it would be best if you learned some Hong Kong dialect."
"certainly."
That evening, Zhang San had his servants prepare a lavish dinner to entertain them.
"Stephen, you're living like an emperor, it's so awesome."
"With money, you're the emperor. Heh..."
"Celebrate, we're all rich!"
"Yeah, let's celebrate that we're all rich, haha..."
Only He Meitian didn't know what they were saying, so Chai Xiaofen translated their conversation for her.
The next morning, Zhang San took them to see the movie "New World," which he had invested in and produced. When they entered the cinema, they saw people queuing to buy tickets.
"Hey Stephen, your movie is a hit! You've succeeded again."
Zhang San gave a shy smile and didn't say anything. The group lined up and entered the movie theater. In order not to attract attention, Guan Meiren and the other women put on masks and quickly entered the movie theater.
The cinemas in Central are very upscale, and they started waiting for the movie to be shown.
Soon, the theater lights dimmed, and the movie began. It was a film about Hong Kong triads, but the people in it were dressed in suits and looked very ruthless, which didn't seem like it.
The story is simple: an undercover cop is forced to betray his job and become a triad boss. Overall, it's very exciting and thrilling.
As I came out of the movie theater, I overheard someone in the audience saying, "Holy crap, are Hong Kong triads really like this?"
Just then, a few shady-looking street thugs walked past them, and someone whispered, "That's more like it."
"Those scumbags, dressed like slackers, where would they get the money to buy suits? They're hopeless. If that's the case, I'd rather be a scumbag myself."
"Hey, it's actually pretty fun."
Ignoring their chatter, Zhang San said, "Let's go shopping first. This is Central, it's very bustling."
Because it was Christmas, the streets were packed with people, especially the shopping centers. Several department stores from the island nation were located there, and many people were coming and going. Zhang San saw Yaohan and smiled. He had bought the Taipan Mansion, and the other party should... go bankrupt as usual, but he wouldn't get HK$3.7 million to recover his losses.
"Buy whatever you want, it's on me today, consider it my Christmas gift to you."
Zhang San really wanted to shout, "Young Master Zhang, pay the bill!" But everyone would probably just send him to Qingshan Hospital! It's said that this hospital set up a small stock exchange there in 1973, so that those who couldn't stand it could speculate on stocks.
Of everyone present, Rosamund Kwan was probably the happiest. The others also smiled. Allen said, "I didn't want to buy anything, so let's buy a watch instead."
Soon, Zhang San said that he didn't need his brother-in-law anymore. Just now, he had bought a Patek Philippe worth more than two million Hong Kong dollars; then he also bought himself a Patek Philippe worth more than three million Hong Kong dollars.
"I heard that Hong Kong's richest man has a huge collection of watches like these, supposedly worth over a billion?"
Zhang San looked at himself after putting on the watch, looking it over and over again.
"Is it too late for me to get a new one?"
Zhang San rolled his eyes at him and said, "You said you only wanted one watch, so I'll give it to you."
Allen said he had nothing to say about FUC, at which point he saw women coming out of several nearby shops, each holding a San Francisco credit card.
Zhang San didn't even look at the bill. After taking the card, he said, "Just have them send it back. Don't take it yourself; we're going somewhere else later."
He instructed his bodyguards to send them back to 10 Poole Road.
Sure enough, these people haven't gotten used to how to enjoy themselves yet.
