Following the route, Chen Huimin drove Shi Zhijian directly to the Mid-Levels mansion area.
Shi Zhijian got off the car and looked up at the mansion in front of him. It was extraordinary and spectacular.
It can be said that among the luxury houses in Mid-Levels, the Huo's house is one of the best.
As soon as Shi Zhijian arrived at the door of the mansion, an old man in a blue shirt came out to greet him.
"Hello, are you Mr. Shi? I am Ah Cai, the housekeeper of the Huo family!"
"It turns out to be Uncle Cai, hello!" Shi Zhijian said politely.
"Master is waiting for you in the restaurant. I made boiled fish tonight."
Uncle Cai was very polite. Not many people could be invited to Huo's house to eat boiled fish, and it was even rarer for a young and promising person like Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian followed Uncle Cai along the gravel path in the garden, and soon came to the door of the living room. A maid with long braided hair came over and brought slippers for Shi Zhijian to put on.
Shi Zhijian changed into slippers and then politely came to Huo's restaurant.
There was a servant in the restaurant, holding disinfectant alcohol in his hand, and said to Shi Zhijian: "I'm sorry, sir, I haven't been feeling well lately, so..."
Shi Zhijian smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and said, "Squirt more for me."
The servant couldn't help but be startled.
Since the master implemented this alcohol disinfection order, many people don't like it, and those who come to Huo's house also find it troublesome, but people like Shi Zhijian are rare.
The servant didn't know that Shi Zhijian had experienced several epidemic prevention and control in his previous life, and was very concerned about things like influenza. The more the Huo family paid attention to it, the safer he felt.
The servant sprayed alcohol mist on Shi Zhijian's hands and handed him a tissue for Shi Zhijian to wipe.
Shi Zhijian took the initiative to turn around and asked the servant to spray it on him too.
Not to mention the servants at this moment, even Mr. Huo and Mr. Huo who were sitting in the restaurant were stunned.
"Ating, this friend of yours...well, very interesting!"
"Yes, yes, it's very interesting." Huo Zhenting didn't know what to say.
In the past, when guests came to the house, they would cooperate with alcohol disinfection only after having to talk to each other. But this Ajian is afraid that the disinfection will not be thorough, so he keeps going around in circles? Sharp!
"Ajian, here!" Young Master Huo stood up and greeted Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian hurriedly walked over, and then bowed to Mr. Huo who was sitting at the dining table from a distance, "Hello, Uncle Huo!"
"Okay, don't be polite!" Mr. Huo said.
Shi Zhijian then raised his head and looked at Mr. Huo in front of him.
The man in front of me was Mr. Huo, who was about forty-eight or nineteen years old, with a thin appearance. Although he had a cold recently and could not speak very fluently, his eyes were still bright and clear. Especially when he looked at himself, his eyes were like falcons, penetrating into his heart.
When Shi Zhijian was looking at Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo was also looking at him. He was under twenty years old, young and handsome, with a very special temperament, and his behavior was neither humble nor overbearing.
"Are you Mr. Shi Zhijianshi? I have heard Ating tell you many times. This time I invite you to my home for dinner. I have nothing to entertain you. Please forgive me!" After speaking, Mr. Huo pointed to the table opposite the dining table.
Chair, coughed a few times, took out a handkerchief and covered his mouth.
Huo Da didn't see this, and while stroking Huo Dao's back to calm him down, he told the butler Cai Shu: "Have someone bring me an extra pair of bowls and chopsticks!"
Shi Zhijian sat down at the seat pointed by Mr. Huo, held his head high and looked at Mr. Huo.
Soon a servant brought over a set of silver rabbit and black porcelain tableware and placed it in front of Shi Zhijian.
Mr. Huo coughed a few times, then waved his hand to tell Mr. Huo not to be nervous, and then looked up at Shi Zhijian: "Mr. Shi looks very young and talented! May I ask where your ancestral home is in Yu?"
Shi Zhijian did not hesitate.
Mr. Huo was startled and nodded slightly, "I didn't expect that we are from the same hometown. I am also from Panyu."
"Really?" Shi Zhijian looked surprised, "I didn't expect you and I to be from the same hometown. It's so surprising!"
Shi Zhijian's ancestral origin can be described as "various". He has been from Chaozhou, Zhejiang, and Shanghai.
People have a lot of skills but not a lot of work.
He has many ancestry, so it's easy to do things.
"Uncle Huo, I respect you so much! You don't have to be so polite. Just call me Ajian or Jianzi. But I can't bear the word sir!" Shi Zhijian lowered his head slightly and spoke humbly to Mr. Huo.
road.
Shi Zhijian's answer was impeccable. Since the two were from the same hometown, Shi Zhijian's "Uncle Huo" was even more affectionate.
In addition, Big Brother Huo's identity is here. Shi Zhijian is not only from the same hometown as him, but also good friends with Mr. Huo, so it is understandable that Big Brother Huo calls him "Ajian" or "Jianzi".
"We have talented people in Panyu!" Mr. Huo nodded slightly, feeling that Shi Zhijian was very polite and knew how to communicate with others.
"Okay, I heard what Ating said. You helped him a lot, and he will help you in turn, so I invite you to drink soup!"
Mr. Huo deliberately did not talk directly about the real estate development in Tsuen Wan. He wanted to see whether the young man Shi Zhijian could keep his composure.
Politeness and conversation are there.
If you want to become a real talent, you must be able to tolerate it.
To endure a knife on one's head is the hardest thing to do, especially for those young people who are arrogant and arrogant. Many of them cannot do this.
At this time, the Huo family's servant brought the soup to the table, but it was the highest-quality "boiled fish" that Mr. Huo entertained his guests.
Many people think that people from a wealthy family like Mr. Huo must eat abalone, ginseng, and tripe. However, they don't know that Mr. Huo comes from a poor family and has always advocated frugality, so most of his daily meals are very light.
For Mr. Huo, food is just for eating, as long as it can fill his stomach. There is no need to be so luxurious. If you have spare money, it is better to invest in business, or donate it to more people in need.
.
In a sense, Mr. Huo really lived up to the saying "If you are rich, you will benefit the world."
Therefore, the Huo family usually entertains guests with the highest standard of "boiled fish".
Seeing the "boiled fish" being served, Mr. Huo pointed and said, "Ajian, don't dislike it! I loved this dish the most when I was young. I would always call it before going to sea or when doing important things.
Grandma made this dish to suit the occasion. Boiling fish turns out to be a fish that will make you rich! There are strong winds and waves, so you will make a fortune!"
The servant of the Huo family helped Shi Zhijian put a cup of fish soup away, then arranged several exquisitely matched side dishes into a petal shape and placed them on the dining table, then bowed and left.
Shi Zhijian first said to the servant who helped serve the soup: "Thank you very much!"
Then he turned back and looked up at Mr. Huo and said: "Uncle Huo, I have heard of many of your heroic deeds. But in my opinion, this fortune fish is particularly suitable for the occasion tonight!"
