Chapter 61 [In the bowl and in the pot]
It's May, and it's already a scorching summer in Hong Kong.
Even though this era is so conservative, you can still see the graceful figure set off by cheongsam and the beauties of the era dressed up in waist skirts everywhere in Hong Kong, which is pleasing to the eye.
Saturday night.
The Lin family had dinner together at Tang's house. The two families lived upstairs and downstairs. In the future, they were in-laws, so they often had dinner together. Tang Caiyun was used to sitting next to Lin Zhichao, and occasionally looked at her sweetheart affectionately, which made her heart feel sweet.
Lin Zhichao, on the other hand, seemed to be at ease, active in the party, able to chat with everyone, and having a great time, and he did not forget to interact with Tang Caiyun.
Tang Zhongyuan raised his wine glass, and Lin Zhichao immediately did the same. Weng and his son-in-law drank a small drink, which could be said to be a celebration for a stable life. After all, many times in the past, everyone was worried about the future, but now everyone has finally stabilized.
"Cheung Kong Industries estimates that it will add three automatic zipper machines in June and July, and its production capacity should soon double. Uncle Tang, you have to be prepared!" Lin Zhichao put down his wine glass and said with a smile.
Tang Zhongyuan immediately showed joy and said: "No problem, I promise to keep up with the production value and quality." He was worried that his orders were insufficient, and now they have increased by 20 to 30% in one fell swoop. There is no reason to be unhappy.
Immediately, he asked: "Are you so optimistic about the zipper market in Asia? In less than a year, the output value will double!"
Lin Zhichao said: "In the past six months, Yangtze River Industries has almost been unable to accept orders. Not to mention three machines, I plan to add ten more machines next year!"
These were not his bluffs. After all, there was no need. They were just to inoculate Tang Zhongyuan.
Tang Zhongyuan was shocked. Compared with the courage of this son-in-law, he was simply a child.
Thinking of this, he felt even more happy about his son-in-law. He had two sons and two daughters. If he didn't create a big industry, how could he be worthy of his life?
And he thought that compared to doing business, Lin Zhichao was definitely a few blocks ahead of him, so he had to hold on to his son-in-law's lap.
"Then I will build my own factory on my 80,000-square-foot land in Tsuen Wan to expand production capacity! When the time comes, I can just sell the current factory."
Tang Zhongyuan's words also reveal another meaning, that is, if Yangtze River Industrial expands its output value in the future, it must still consider its own Oriental Textiles.
Lin Zhichao would not understand, and immediately said: "Okay, when I expand my production capacity, I will tell you long in advance. I will make arrangements based on my other orders."
He doesn't mind bringing his father-in-law to make a fortune, just like he doesn't mind making Li Gaofu and Lee Shau-kee rich, because he also needs to cultivate his own 'circle'.
At this time, Song Qiaoling helped her husband and said, "Your Uncle Tang has been living directly at the factory in Tsuen Wan recently. He said he wanted to make a lot of money, so he slept with the workers in the factory at night." After speaking, she showed a heartbroken expression.
Tang Zhongyuan blushed and said quickly: "I'm worried about the factory machinery. It's desolate over there. Besides, I go home several times a week, so what's the big deal?"
Lin Zhichao reassured: "It's actually easy to make money. Uncle Tang doesn't need to worry too much. By the way, I bought two more second-hand cars with drivers. This car usually takes Xin'er and Caiying to school. Which one of you wants to use it?"
Any car will do."
Tang Caiying immediately said happily: "Long live my brother-in-law!"
She used to take a car, but now her father doesn't buy one in order to save money.
The price of goods in Hong Kong is very high, so many rich people may not be willing to come to Hong Kong. They know the truth that "it's all in vain", so they have to spend their money sparingly.
Tang Caiyun said shyly: "Crazy girl, what are you talking about!"
Tang Caiying stuck out her tongue and made gestures to her sister, which seemed threatening;
Tang Caiyun felt guilty and immediately stopped her activities.
Song Qiaoling took advantage of Tang Caiying's shouting and forced Wu Wenying to say: "Sister Wenying, the marriage of the two children"
Wu Wenying looked at Lin Zhichao. Of course she wanted to do it as soon as possible, but she knew that Lin Zhichao had a plan. She also knew how much her son valued his career and did not want to interfere rashly.
Tang Zhongyuan immediately observed the situation and said: "Although Sister Wenying is Zhichao's elder, she should make the decision, but Zhichao has always been calm and planned in doing things, and now he has a huge career, we still have to listen to his opinion!"
The two families looked at Lin Zhichao one after another.
Lin Zhichao said calmly: "My idea is early next year. The reason is that my foundation in Hong Kong will be more stable, and the house in Lam Tin Garden will be available for move-in."
After saying that, she looked at Tang Caiyun who was a little shy and expectant next to her, and said: "Let's hold a simple engagement ceremony during the summer vacation!"
"Yeah" Tang Caiyun said involuntarily.
Then he raised his head and realized that Lin Zhichao was speaking to his parents, and a blush suddenly appeared on his face.
Song Qiaoling said with a smile: "Zhichao is really prudent in his work. Sister Wenying, what do you think?"
Wu Wenying was naturally happy and said: "Okay! The two children are satisfied with each other and have a lot of contact with each other, so they should feel at ease."
She always felt that her son was a bit unspeakable in what he did, and she was really worried about attracting other people's gossip.
Fortunately, although the Tang couple were anxious and worried, they did not stop anything.
night.
Song Qiaoling was on the bed and said to Tang Zhongyuan: "We have to keep a close eye on Zhichao and Caiyun!"
She understands the importance of Lin Zhichao to her family. Although it is hard for her husband to start a business, this son-in-law has greatly helped her husband's career.
"Okay, what are you worrying about! I know Zhichao's character very well, there is no way there will be any mistakes." Tang Zhongyuan was very accurate in judging people.
Song Qiaoling said: "I'm not worried about Lin Zhichao's regrets, after all, my daughter is also very good. I'm worried about the two of them getting ahead of schedule."
Tang Zhongyuan immediately said: "Since you trust others, you must trust them completely. Otherwise, if you ask Caiyun not to have contact with him, wouldn't you offend people? It's best to let nature take its course!"
Song Qiaoling immediately felt deeply that her husband was "not senior enough" in front of Lin Zhichao, and he knew how to be soft-spoken.
She leaned close to Tang Zhongyuan, and then she was full of love and said: "Let me see if you want to have contact with me after you have been back for so long."
Tang Zhongyuan was shocked!
Suddenly his arrogance dropped by three points!
You can only bite the bullet!
The next morning.
"Dong dong"
"Come in"
Lin Zhichao was reading in the study when he heard a knock on the door, turned around, and suddenly felt happy.
"Brother Zhichao, Caiying asked you to take her out to play!" Tang Caiyun stood cautiously at the door but did not step into the room.
Lin Zhichao put down the book and said funny: "Why doesn't she tell it in person?"
Tang Caiying is fun, but Lin Zhichao is the most fun every time he takes everyone out, maybe to visit Lane Crawford, or to Repulse Bay, or to the top of the mountain, or to Happy Valley, etc.
Tang Caiyun's expression paused and she said coyly: "How do I know!"
Lin Zhichao stood up and wanted to catch Tang Caiyun. When he saw that she was about to run away, he immediately said: "Don't run away!"
Tang Caiyun paused instinctively, and was quickly pulled to the room by Lin Zhichao, who closed the door and then hugged Tang Caiyun around the waist.
After the last sneak attack, Tang Caiyun accidentally missed Lin Zhichao's room, fearing that she would be looked down upon by Lin Zhichao and Wu Wenying.
However, Lin Zhichao is a modern man after all. He can bear not to take the last step, but he can't bear not to get close to him.
"Brother Zhichao, I'm afraid." Tang Caiyun said softly.
Lin Zhichao said decisively: "As long as I am in this world, you have nothing to fear! Caiyun, you cannot keep a distance when you are in love. We are not an arranged marriage or a feudal marriage. If you deliberately avoid me again, it will not work!"
"
Tang Caiyun then raised her head, then snuggled into Lin Zhichao's arms and said, "Brother Zhichao, I listen to you!" She understood that with Lin Zhichao's strength, it would not be good for her to hide and seek with Lin Zhichao again.
When Lin Zhichao heard this, he helped Tang Caiyun upright, then leaned forward and started sucking.
This taste finally made Lin Zhichao recall his 'first love'. Even if he has gone through many battles, he can't help but fall into that kind of beauty.
After a long time, the lips parted.
"This is true love. Kissing, holding hands, and hugging waists are all the exclusive domain of lovers." Lin Zhichao taught him a lesson.
Tang Caiyun immediately said: "Did Brother Zhichao fall in love with someone else?"
Lin Zhichao said: "What difference does it make whether we have talked about it or not?"
Tang Caiyun immediately said: "Of course there is a difference! You seem to understand everything, but I understand nothing. This must be my first time falling in love, what about you?"
Lin Zhichao smiled and said: "Don't ask about people's past!"
Tang Caiyun felt itchy in her heart. She was not jealous, after all, men in this era had a high status, but she was really curious.
"I'll kiss you and you can tell me. I'm not jealous."
Lin Zhichao signaled that you can start. Tang Caiyun came forward unnaturally and was directly blocked by Lin Zhichao.
After a long time, Lin Zhichao said with satisfaction: "No!"
Tang Caiyun jumped for joy!
Lin Zhichao felt a little uncomfortable because he still wanted to take a concubine.
