Chapter 441 Return to Hong Kong (11)

Under the leadership of A Hui, a local leader in Xiangjiang, Cao Chunyuan quickly went shopping in several of her shops that had not yet opened. These shops were purchased by A Hui for her a few months ago and had been decorated long ago and were just waiting for opening.

This is not only the first time for Cao Chunyuan to visit her own shop, but also the first time for her to observe the market economy of Xiangjiang up close.

When talking about Hong Kong in the past, Cao Chunyuan's first concept was that prices were high, with prices 7 or 8 times higher than in the mainland. The second concept was internationalization, with foreign companies everywhere.

After visiting several mainstream shopping malls and business circles in Xiangjiang, Cao Chunyuan just wanted to say that "it is well-deserved."

Chunyuan Fruit Store has a high consumption level in Yanjing, and even in the entire mainland. The most expensive 'Red Strawberry' is only around 100 yuan per catty in the most expensive season.

But in Xiangjiang, imported fruits such as Hongyan strawberry and Zhangji strawberry are simply not affordable for ordinary people. In Xiangjiang, they are collectively called noble fruits, and the price is more than 200 yuan/jin in season.

At its most expensive, the price is thousands.

This is the biggest difference between Xiangjiang and the mainland. It’s not just fruits here. The entire Xiangjiang has a very clear division between rich and poor.

For example, the Repulse Bay, Waterside Bay, and Mid-Levels villa areas where Cai Guangyao purchased his luxury mansion are all wealthy areas. The various living facilities in the wealthy areas are very complete, but the prices are ridiculously expensive.

Mong Kok, Tsim Sha Tsui and other places are relatively typical commercial areas, and the consumption level here is the highest in Hong Kong.

The Island District is much worse. The level of development here is not much different from first-tier cities in the mainland such as Yanjing. It is even worse than the first-tier cities in the mainland.

However, the consumption level here is still 7 or 8 times that of Yanjing, which leads to a very strange phenomenon. Local prices remain high, but the living standards of ordinary residents are very low.

The most valuable thing for the local people is their Xiangjiang household registration, houses, and land. As for work, they can only do some basic jobs that sell their labor force.

Fortunately, Cao Chunyuan came to Xiangjiang only for business investment, rather than preparing to move to Xiangjiang. After she learned about the situation in Xiangjiang, she made detailed work arrangements.

"Lily, go to the Xiangjiang branch first and explain the company's expansion to the person in charge of the branch.

You and the person in charge of the Xiangjiang Branch will start recruiting talents. Ah Hui and I will go shopping in the office buildings in the afternoon and buy two more pieces of land to build the headquarters base of the Xiangjiang Branch.

Xiangjiang is our bridgehead to enter the international market, and when we come here next time, it will be the time to officially enter the international market."

Xu Lili nodded in agreement, and after discussing some details of the company's expansion with Cao Chunyuan, she went to the Xiangjiang branch alone to handle the branch's expansion matters.

Under the leadership of Ah Fai, Cao Chunyuan purchased an office building and a piece of land for the company's headquarters in the Mong Kok business district.

In addition, he also bought a small villa in the mid-level villa area and became neighbors with Cai Guangyao.

After Cao Chunyuan had dealt with all these matters, it was already dark, and Ah Hui drove Cao Chunyuan back to the Qianshuiwan villa area.

On the way back, Ah Hui couldn't help but complain: "Mr. Cao, if you need a place to stay, just tell Mr. Cai. He has many villas under his name.

With your relationship with Mr. Cai, it’s okay to give you a house as a gift. If Mr. Cai knew that I was taking you to buy a house, he would definitely scold me."

Cao Chunyuan smiled and shook her head. No matter how rich Cai Guangyao is, it is still his money. Even if he has too many villas to live in, it has nothing to do with Cao Chunyuan.

The two of them are now in a cooperative relationship, no matter how you say it. If the cooperative relationship between the two of them breaks down one day, they may become enemies.

Therefore, Cao Chunyuan did not want to take advantage of Cai Guangyao. The most she could do was to use his name to start her own work in Xiangjiang to gain some convenience for herself.

As for villas, expensive gifts and the like, Cao Chunyuan will take the initiative to avoid them. This is respect for her friends and respect for herself.

"Mr. Cai definitely doesn't care about this little money, but I can't take advantage of him just because he doesn't care. Besides, I still have this little money."

"hehe!"

A very unnatural smile appeared on Ah Hui's face. He was just pretending to be polite. The cheapest villa in the Mid-Levels Villa District costs more than 5 million.

Even an international wealthy businessman like Cai Guangyao cannot turn a blind eye to this price.

But Cao Chunyuan, a 20-year-old young man, bought a villa worth nearly 10 million yuan in front of him without any hesitation.

At the same time, she also purchased an office building of more than 300 square meters in the prime business district of Mong Kok. This was not the end of the story. She was still dissatisfied with the 300-square-meter office building, so she bought a 5,000-square-meter piece of land to build her own office building.

Cao Chunyuan's generosity greatly improved Ah Hui's overall impression of mainland businessmen, who had always looked down upon them.

"Mr. Cao, let me handle the matter of building your office building. I am familiar with several reliable construction companies in Xiangjiang. I will ask them to give you some architectural drawings, and you can choose the drawings and construction companies yourself.

.

With me watching over you, they will definitely not dare to cut corners for you."

After seeing Cao Chunyuan's courage to spend money like water, Ah Hui also wanted to show his strength in front of Cao Chunyuan and let Cao Chunyuan look up to him.

Before construction, the construction unit must first prepare construction drawings. These construction drawings are not free. The price of construction drawings made by hiring professionals starts at 10,000 yuan.

Cao Chunyuan will definitely look down on this small amount of money, but this condescending attitude can actually increase her own worth.

The corners of Cao Chunyuan's mouth raised slightly. As soon as Ah Hui opened his mouth, she knew what Ah Hui had in mind.

Ah Fai is the spokesperson of Cai Guangyao. When Cao Chunyuan does business in Xiangjiang, she will inevitably deal with Ah Fai, so she is very considerate and follows Ah Fai's words.

"Mr. Ah Hui, you are worthy of being the Bai Datong of Xiangjiang. You can solve any problem. No wonder Mr. Cai said that if I have any problem, I can just come to you."

Then I will trouble Mr. Ah Fai about the Xiangjiang headquarters building. If Mr. Ah Fai needs anything, feel free to mention it. I am not a stingy person either."

Ah Hui shook his head repeatedly and claimed that he was only doing things according to the rules. Cao Chunyuan was Cai Guangyao's friend, so he would help Cao Chunyuan. All conveniences were based on Cai Guangyao's face and had nothing to do with him.

What Ah Hui said was not wrong, but Cao Chunyuan would not really send Ah Hui out casually like this. She would definitely leave the benefits to Ah Hui.

In this way, the two of them chatted all the way back to the Repulse Bay villa area.
