"To tell the truth, Ating, why didn't your father come? After all, I boasted in front of my friends and said I would treat him to a favor, but now it's a slap in the face!" Xu Sanshao said with a look of dissatisfaction.
Huo Zhenting showed a silly smile on his face: "He didn't want to either. He hasn't been feeling well recently and has a cold! He's taking care of himself at home!"
The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional.
As soon as Shi Zhijian heard this, his heart became brighter, and it was true!
I remember well, in the previous life, there was a great influenza outbreak in Hong Kong in 1968, which eventually killed 15% of the population and about 60,000 people.
Shi Zhijian took a deep breath and started thinking rapidly.
An ordinary person would be thinking about hoarding drugs at this moment and making money like crazy, but what Shi Zhijian is thinking about is how to prevent this from happening. After all, here are almost all compatriots who are related to him by blood.
"Uncle Huo is sick? I must go and visit him when I have time." Xu Sanshao was surprised for a moment, then turned around and said: "Ajian! Come on, let me introduce you! This is my Uncle Huo's eldest son, Huo Zhenting.
This is my good friend Shi Zhijian."
Shi Zhijian came to his senses, stretched out his hand and said to Huo Zhenting: "Hello, Mr. Huo!"
Huo Zhenting chuckled and stretched out his hand to hold the hand offered by Shi Zhijian: "I'll call you A Jian. Third Young Master usually mentions you a lot. I have admired your name for a long time!"
Huo Zhenting usually had many gatherings with Xu Sanshao, and Xu Sanshao always boasted about what a sharp young man he knew, which made Huo Zhenting's ears itch and he was full of curiosity about Shi Zhijian.
When I saw him today, he really had an extraordinary temperament. Not only was he handsome, but his demeanor, which was neither humble nor arrogant, suited Huo Zhenting very well.
"Huo Shaomiao praised it! Mr. Xu said that your kicking skills are top-notch, and we have time to discuss and learn from each other!" Shi Zhijian knew that Huo Zhenting liked sports competitions, especially football, so he followed his likes and said this.
Huo Zhenting was indeed very happy after hearing this.
His talent in business is limited, and he cannot be as arrogant as his father, Mr. Huo, but he is talented in sports competitions. In particular, he formed Hong Kong's first private football team, which ran on the green field and defeated many ghost teams.
Beaten to pieces.
"Ajian, I like to hear what you say. Come on, let's go in. I will have a few more drinks with you later!" Huo Zhenting was also a sweet-tempered person. The more he looked at Shi Zhijian, the more he liked him, and he immediately regarded him as his wife.
own people.
Xu Sanshao was also very happy. Although he was depressed that Mr. Huo could not come in person, Huo Zhenting was also good. After all, he was the eldest son of the Huo family. As for the development of Tsuen Wan, he could only discuss it in the long term.
…
Xu Sanshao was used to being wild and wild, and it was normal for him to be surrounded by warblers and swallows.
Young Master Huo has been strictly disciplined since he was a child. Even when he goes to study abroad, he must report his whereabouts every day, let alone drinking and picking up girls.
Xu Sanshao knew his personality, so he waved his hand and asked the accompanying ladies to go down.
Shi Zhijian took out his wallet, took out a wad of banknotes between his index and middle fingers and handed it to Chen Huimin, asking him to tip the ladies. He also told Chen Huimin to say "thank you" to the ladies.
Xu Sanshao has long been accustomed to this. He spends money like water. He doesn't have enough money to spend, so how can he have money to reward these young ladies?
Besides, he believed that Shi Zhijian was the best at getting money and made a lot of money, so of course he would do such small things as giving rewards.
Huo Zhenting saw it but nodded secretly.
Huo Zhenting has been with his father, Mr. Huo, since he was a child. He has been instilled in him all the principles of life and how to recognize people.
Mr. Huo emphasized two points in particular, at the card table and at the wine table.
Anyone who loses money at the poker table, keeps their expression unchanged, and accepts their bet is most likely to have good cards and the same character.
Anyone who takes the initiative to bear the expenses at the wine table and is careful and does not look down on the accompanying girls is definitely not a bad person.
All people are created equal.
Mr. Huo was born in a family known as "Sampan Ke". The family has been carrying this title since his grandfather. This title is a derogatory term, which means that the family has no family and no business.
Therefore, Mr. Huo has always respected the working people of the lower class.
Without those chattering bartenders, Xu Sanshao was obviously a little uncomfortable, so he could only call for drinks and start drinking with Shi Zhijian and Huo Zhenting.
At this time, the stage program also began to be exciting.
Xu Sanshao and Shi Zhijian took a look at the program and started chatting with Huo Zhenting about the development of Tsuen Wan.
Huo Zhenting immediately put down his glass of wine, spread his hands and said, "As you know, my specialty is kicking waves, and I'm really not good at business! My dad also told me before I came here, just listen to what you say when encountering this kind of thing.
I won’t express any opinions. I’ll tell him when I get back and let him make up his mind!”
Xu Sanshao was dumbfounded and looked at Shi Zhijian, which meant that it was over, he was not a master, and it was useless to say so.
Shi Zhijian knew that this Young Master Huo was a typical "big wise but foolish" person. A person who could stick to one look all his life - middle parted hair, suit and tie or bow tie, how could he be an ordinary person?!
"In that case, Mr. Huo, I will tell you a little more, and I would like to trouble you to tell Mr. Huo when you get back..." Shi Zhijian was not fooled, and immediately told the plan to develop Tsuen Wan in a serious manner.
To be precise, Shi Zhijian wanted to cooperate with the Xu family and the Huo family, relying on the strength of their two families to avoid the bites of the real estate giants and develop 3,000 acres of land in Tsuen Wan into 180 super large beachfront villas.
Shi Zhijian also made a very detailed investment plan for this purpose and handed the plan to Huo Zhenting for review.
Huo Zhenting took the plan but didn't look at it. Instead, he smiled bitterly at Shi Zhijian and said, "It's useless if you gave it to me. I told you that I'm not a family member!"
Xu Sanshao rolled his eyes, "If you're not a master, don't take it!"
He reached out to grab the plan, but was stopped by Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian smiled and said to Huo Zhenting: "It's okay, Mr. Huo! If you're interested, just take a look. If you're not interested, just throw it into the fire and burn it! I trust you!"
Huo Zhenting smiled, pointed at Shi Zhijian and said to Xu Sanshao: "The more I look at it, the more I feel that Ajian is much more pleasing to the eye than you?!"
Xu Sanshao blew his beard and stared: "What did you say? You guy actually said such a thing! Come on, I have to punish you three times! You usually call me brother Xu, but when you don't need it, you say I'm not pleasing to you.
?I’ll beat your lungs out!”
Just when Xu Sanshao was pretending to be angry, the lights on the stage suddenly dimmed, and a beautiful figure appeared on the big stage in the swaying lights.
Everyone at the scene was immediately attracted by the beautiful figure and looked at her together.
Third Young Master Xu and Young Master Huo also stopped playing and looked towards the stage.
Only Shi Zhijian slowly picked up the wine glass, put it to his lips and took a sip.
Just then the music melody sounded——
Along with the melody, a female voice sang: "After sleeping for a hundred years, the people of our country are gradually waking up. Open your eyes and look carefully, who would like to be a captive and think of himself..."
The impassioned songs and melodies, coupled with Nie Yongqin's sweet voice, are slightly dissonant.
But everyone around them listened with interest. After all, this was the first time they heard such an exciting song.
Even Xu Sanshao and Huo Dashao looked at Nie Yongqin who was singing excitedly on the stage with shocked faces, as if they had seen a brand new goddess.
Shi Zhijian sighed, this song needs a male voice to sound good. The sweetness of the female voice dilutes the soaring heroic spirit in the song.
While Shi Zhijian was thinking, he sipped his drink and turned to look at the stage, and then with a "pop" sound, a mouthful of wine spurted out!
On the stage, Nie Yongqin was singing "The Great Wall Will Never Fall" in the front. Behind him, Shao Yajian, Kuili Qiang and others were shirtless, with their upper body muscles stretched out. They were doing the horse stance, huffing and puffing and playing Shaolin boxing!
