Chapter 168: Christmas

Until the afternoon, after finishing his official duties, Lin Xiaoguang was ready to leave.

Noticing that he was cleaning up, Jiang Shanshan quickly stood up, walked to the desk, and asked: "Mr. Lin, you are going out, do you want to make some arrangements?"

"No need." Lin Xiaoguang shook his head: "I have personal matters to deal with."

"What about me?"

Lin Xiaoguang looked at her. Assistants did not have to follow the boss all the time, but secretaries were needed. But she didn't seem to need to know about this. Thinking about it, he shook his head: "You should stay in the company, I have something to do."

I leave it to you to do it.”

Jiang Shanshan made a gesture of listening: "Say what you say!"

"You should make a car purchase plan and purchase a few official cars. You can ask the managers of each department about which brand to choose. As for the price, you can decide on your own." Lin Xiaoguang said calmly.

He had wanted to buy a car for a long time, but he was really not used to taking taxis every day, but the money he had before had a legitimate use.

"Okay, Mr. Lin, do you have a favorite brand?" Jiang Shanshan took a pen and wrote in her notebook.

"Audi."

"Okay, see you then!"

Lin Xiaoguang walked out the door, passed by the front desk, and winked at Ruan Guan. The latter was already ready and hurriedly came out. He smiled at Qiu Yingying as a greeting, neither salty nor light, neither close nor friendly.

He is distant and maintains the airs of the general manager very well.

When Qiu Yingying saw the two of them going out together and Ruan Guan skipping work openly, she felt envious and a little disappointed, but she didn't dare to ask or say anything.

After going out, the two of them came to the taxi stand, and Ruan Wan said while walking: "Brother Lin, you, the general manager, are so stingy. You don't even have a car. If other companies know about it, don't you look down on it."

us."

"I'm ready to buy it, don't worry."

"Really? What car should I buy? I think BMW is pretty good. How about you buy this one?"

"..."

The young girl is invincible in her youth, sunny, cheerful, outgoing and lively. Lin Xiaoguang can't resist it. Although he is young, his mentality is very old. He doesn't like to make troubles, but it is quite interesting to see young people making troubles. However, Ruan Wan is really

It's too active.

"Wen Yongen, where is her home?"

"Tin Shui Wai, Yuen Long, New Territories, is quite far away. Her whole family is aboriginal from Xiangjiang, her parents are here, and she also has a fifteen or sixteen-year-old brother who is very naughty..." Ruan Guan Balabala said.

"Oh..." Lin Xiaoguang made a voice.

The taxi continued to drive until it reached Tin Shui Wai and stopped on the side of an open street.

After paying a hefty fare, Lin Xiaoguang got off the car and stood on the street corner, looking around at the Tin Shui Wai community described in Xu Anhua's "Days and Nights in Tin Shui Wai". Well, Tin Shui Wai in the early 1980s.

Hong Kong has a developed economy and developed cities, but that is Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, and the New Territories are not related. Along the way, as far as you can see, most of them are farmland.

Apart from farmland, all that is left are villages, with basically few factories.

Quite backward.

Take the Tin Shui Wai community in front of us as an example. It is no different from the most prosperous rural streets in the township government in the northwest region of China in later generations. The prosperity of Xiangjiang has nothing to do with the residents of the New Territories. They live the life of farmers, farming and selling vegetables. Their life is not poetic.

, but he is also independent from the world and lives a very leisurely life.

Wenshan Village is a very ordinary small village in Tin Shui Wai. The only advantage is that it is relatively close to the highway, so life is relatively easy.

The two walked to the village. When they approached the village, Ruan Guan told him: "When you get to the Wen family, just say that you are Yong En's classmate. Wenshan Village is relatively exclusive. You are so young and bookish, so they will definitely believe you."

."

"I know." Lin Xiaoguang nodded. He will go to the University of Hong Kong to study for a master's degree in a while. It's not a lie to say that he is a classmate.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, some villagers had already finished work and went home. Along the way, they met many people.

Ruan Guan is relatively familiar with the Wen family, but not very familiar with Wenshan Village. However, he is still a half-acquaintance. After meeting each other, the villagers are quite friendly.

While walking, Ruan Guan asked: "Brother Lin, I heard that your hometown is also in a rural area?"

"My grandfather is an out-and-out farmer, but he caught up with the Anti-Japanese War and later joined the revolution, so my family moved to the county seat. What about you? I haven't heard Brother Wen say anything about your sisters."

"We, we are not. My family was in Saigon, Vietnam, and my grandfather owned a small shop."

Ruan Guan did not say anything else later, but Lin Xiaoguang also roughly knew that the daughter of a Chinese shop owner had a relationship with the son of a French entrepreneur. Their relationship was not favored, and they were completely separated because of the war.

"Here we are, this is Yong En's house." Ruan Guan stopped.

Lin Xiaoguang looked up and down. The three-story house was not large, less than 700 feet. While looking at him, he asked: "Is this a small house that the British Hong Kong government allowed men in the New Territories to build?"

"Brother Lin, you know so much." Ruan Wan looked at him with admiration.

Small house, legally called a small house, is a house that aboriginal men in the New Territories of Hong Kong are allowed to build, with a height of no more than three stories and an area of ​​no more than 700 square feet.

In the 1970s, the British Hong Kong government planned to develop the New Territories. In order to gain the support of New Territories residents, it promulgated a small house policy, which stipulated that Xiangjiang aboriginal men over 18 years old could apply once in their lifetime for a small house with limited construction height and area within the designated area.

It is a small house and does not need to pay land premium to the Hong Kong government.

"This house was built by Yong En and his father. If it weren't for the clause restricting the sale and transfer of the house, he would have sold the house long ago." Ruan Guan was very indignant.

Lin Xiaoguang remembered the movie "Overheard 3" that he had watched.

He learned about Xiangjiang Dingwu and Dingquan through this movie. In the 1970s and 1980s, residents in the New Territories of Xiangjiang began to build their own Dinghuts, but building Dinghuts also cost a lot of money. Not everyone

We all have this kind of money. If we have this kind of money, wouldn’t it be a good idea to buy real estate in Kowloon?

Therefore, before the handover, the small house policy in Xiangjiang progressed slowly and was in vain.

While he was thinking about it, Ruan Guan exclaimed and looked in the direction they came from, only to see a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old walking towards them.

"Yong En, I'm here!" Ruan Guan waved to her.

Wen Yongen walked around and quickly walked up to him, said hello to Ruan Guan, and then looked at Lin Xiaoguang. Upon seeing this, Ruan Guan introduced him proactively: "This is my brother's good friend and the boss of Qinhuai Company, Lin Xiaoguang.

, I call him Brother Lin."

"Miss Wen, I am Lin Xiaoguang." He stretched out his hand and spoke concisely.

"Hello, Mr. Lin." Wen Yong'en quickly stretched out her hand, shook it, and then let go, breaking away at the touch. Then she hurriedly opened the door and said, "Excuse me, Mr. Lin, please come in with me."

Lin Xiaoguang nodded and followed the two of them in.

"Yong En, why did you come back so early today? Don't you have classes in the evening?" Ruan Guan asked.

"It's Christmas today."
