Chapter 59: Goodness and filial piety come first
Chapter 59: Filial piety comes first
The winery has it ready.
Mu Liancheng gave a winery to the stationmaster.
It has a good reputation in Guangdong.
But because it is a local wine, it cannot be considered high-end.
The trend of worshipping foreign things is prevalent at present, and the top politicians, military personnel, and businessmen all regard foreign liquor and cigars as their most prominent features.
Especially brands such as Axe and Yaners are very popular.
Hong Zhiyou has tasted the winery's brandy and found its taste and quality to be absolutely first-class, in no way inferior to foreign brands.
If you can copy the license plate, you can save on ocean transportation, tariffs, etc.
It is undoubtedly huge profits.
"Minmin, which foreign company in Jinhai is doing the worst business right now?"
“Stinky man.
“When you employ someone, just call her Minmin, no need to call her Mrs. Kang.
"Why are you so cruel?"
"Let's talk about business, about making big money." Hong Zhiyou begged for mercy.
“Worst?
“Those must be a few British foreign companies, which were basically drained dry by the Japanese.
“Companies like Jardine Matheson, Swire, Yan Kee and Sun Tai Hing have yet to recover.
“We finally recovered the territory, but the Americans occupied Jinhai again.
"The company with the best business right now is Longdong Company in Shanghai. They have agents here. Tianjin, the Beijing garrison, the municipal government, and wealthy merchants all buy from them."
When the topic of money was brought up, Fang Min stopped giggling.
“I remember Mrs. Ji from Ren Kee was very pretty.
"Let's set up a card game tomorrow and I'll meet her."
Hong Zhiyou buried his head in her arms and said.
"What do you mean.
"You want to get rid of me as the middleman and be with her?
"Her husband is a jealous person!"
Fang Min snorted unhappily.
"I think you are the jealous one."
"I don't care. You have a lot of ideas. If you want to find a good way, you can't leave me behind."
"Don't worry, I won't throw you away no matter who I throw.
"I'll have your share when the time comes."
He is the Shancai boy named Wu Jingzhong.
The one on the bed is his Sudhana.
The bedding is a bit shabby, but when it comes to shamelessly making money, they are definitely good at it.
After hanging around for a while, Hong Zhiyou simply washed up and drove to No. 1 Changde Road.
……
Arrived at the stationmaster's house.
Mei Qiuju has already had a large table of seafood prepared.
"He smells like rouge, a romantic man." As soon as he sat down at the table, Wu Jingzhong pointed at Hong Zhiyou and laughed.
Sister Mei curled her lips, a little unhappy.
"If a man is not romantic, he is not a hero." Yu Zecheng joked.
"Don't mention it, I wanted to go to the club to get some peace and quiet.
“I didn’t expect to enter the Pansi Cave!”
Hong Zhiyou smiled helplessly and pointed at a large plate of oysters:
"Teacher, can I eat now?
"I feel weak and need to replenish myself."
"Eat, eat quickly." Wu Jingzhong said with a smile.
“Young people should still take care of their health.
"Or else, when you get married, being so philandering will affect your relationship with your spouse."
Sister Mei said a little unhappily.
She also plans to introduce her niece to Hong Zhiyou.
Smart is smart.
Such frivolous behavior really makes people feel a little disgusted.
"sister in law.
"To be honest, my philandering has really led to some results." Hong Zhiyou said while eating oysters dipped in vinegar.
"What's going on?" asked Sister Mei.
Hong Zhiyou told the story of the winery.
"Mrs. Kang is so powerful that she can sell the wine?" Mei Qiuju was delighted.
“There is absolutely no problem with the taste of our wine.
"Don't you think it's too low?
“She was willing to pay 20 percent more and cover the shipping costs.
“Then ask Ruirui to raise the reserve price by another 10%.
"You don't have to do anything. Just make 30% first."
Hong Zhiyou was as casual as if he was at home, eating with his mouth full of juice.
"Very good!
“To be honest, foreigners dominate the wine market in Hong Kong, so business is difficult.
"I originally planned to fly to Hong Kong Island in person to ask Station Master Xie for help.
"Zhiyou, you solved my urgent problem.
"Come, let me toast you on behalf of Ruirui and Jianhua."
Wu Jingzhong was overjoyed, and he and his wife raised their glasses to Hong Zhiyou at the same time.
"Sister-in-law, my flirting was not in vain." Hong Zhiyou raised his glass and took a sip, claiming credit. "Well done, well done."
As long as he can get the money, he will take ten wives, and Sister Mei will be happy with it.
"Zhiyou, you are not young anymore, it's time for you to start a family.
“I have a niece named Yingxue, who is an international student in England.
"She will be returning home in a few days, or you guys can go anywhere."
Mei Qiuju became more and more pleased as she looked at it, and she stood up and looked for the photo.
The girl in the photo is very fashionable.
White princess hat and white gauze skirt.
Beautiful and stylish.
Tall and plump.
This is exactly the one that Hong Zhiyou likes.
"Sister-in-law, a playboy like me is not worthy of you." Hong Zhiyou put down the photo and joked.
“Why not?
“A talented man and a beautiful woman.
"These days, sooner or later, we have to resort to gunfire.
"Whether you are an official or not, or a bandit or not, it's all just empty talk. Only the money in your pocket is the real guarantee.
“Hong Kong, Australia, America, England, New Zealand, which one is not a paradise on earth.
"You and Zecheng should work hard with Old Wu, and you will have a good life in the future."
Sister Mei brainwashed the two of them with a smile on her face.
“Sister-in-law is right.
"Wherever the stationmaster goes, we will go." Yu Zecheng nodded in agreement.
"Xiao Hong, you and Ying Xue try it first.
“If it works, it’s better to be a family.
"No, just make friends."
Sister Mei continued.
"I hope God will bless me and give me this blessing." Hong Zhi nodded and put the photo away.
Wu Jingzhong smiled faintly and did not express his opinion.
After three rounds of drinking.
Wu Jingzhong asked Mei Qiuju to take out a tray.
Hong Zhiyou and his two companions each received five large yellow croakers and two thousand US dollars.
The two of them were naturally happy to express their gratitude.
"Then the military mediation will begin.
"Then the ladies in the station will have to interact with them to show the style and beauty of the party and the country."
"When will your wife arrive?"
After dinner, Wu Jingzhong got down to business.
"It will be soon, if not tomorrow then the day after tomorrow." Yu Zecheng said.
"Ok.
"Zhiyou, what about you?" Wu Jingzhong looked at Hong Zhiyou again.
"Me? If one person is full, the whole family will not be hungry." Hong Zhi was a little confused.
“No way.
"Filial piety is the most important virtue. Have you ever thought about bringing your parents and sister over to enjoy their new life in the rural area outside Hangzhou?" Wu Jingzhong smiled, and his eyes gradually became serious.
Hong Zhi is numb.
If Wu Jingzhong hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten his original body's parents and sister.
"Stationmaster, they are used to staying in Hangzhou..."
Just as Hong Zhiyou was about to refuse, he was interrupted by Wu Jingzhong:
“I said personnel is politics.
"If you don't understand human feelings and human affairs, how can you make political progress?
“If a person doesn’t even love his own parents, what’s the difference between him and an animal?
“Can the leaders and the masses entrust you with the important task of the party and the country?”
"The stationmaster is teaching me a lesson. I'll send someone to pick it up right away." Hong Zhiyou said with a stiff face.
"No.
“I have arranged for Section Chief Xiao to pick him up.
"It'll be there tomorrow."
Wu Jingzhong stopped pretending and spoke directly.
Hong Zhiyou is indeed a good knife.
Fast and sharp.
Especially the unexpected surprise from the winery, which made him more determined to hold the knife and use it for himself no matter what.
He was not in favor of marrying his niece.
The main reason is that Yingxue is too arrogant, so this matchmaking is unlikely to work out.
Wives and children, fathers and daughters are people’s weak points, and this is the usual method used by the Military Control Commission to capture its internal members.
If Hong Zhiyou's family members are captured, he will not be able to escape from his own Five Fingers Mountain.
Wu Jingzhong smiled.
Hong Zhiyou also laughed.
Both of them smiled particularly brightly.
