A newspaper delivery boy rode a bicycle and rushed towards the mid-level villa area.
Wearing a peaked cap and carrying a big bag with today's new newspaper in it, he arrived at a villa. After getting off the car, he carefully balled up today's newspaper and inserted it into the newspaper box next to the milk box.
.
After doing all this, he glanced at the milk in the milk carton, licked his tongue, then turned around and pedaled his bicycle again, dashing away to deliver newspapers to the next villa.
The peace in the villa area was broken by the little newsboy, and from time to time, the barking of dogs and the sound of the door opening were heard.
In front of the gate of Huo's villa.
Crunch!
The door was opened by the housekeeper, Uncle Cai.
As the housekeeper here, Uncle Cai has worked here for almost fifteen years.
He started working in the Huo family when he was twenty years old.
At that time, Mr. Huo was not Mr. Huo, but he had just started to make a fortune. The thirty-year-old master braved all obstacles, traveled around Hong Kong, conquered the sea with a few ships, and was proud of the crowd. He not only dealt with pirates, chatted and laughed with people in the world, but also
After fighting with countless tycoons, he finally soared to the sky and became the most powerful super tycoon in Hong Kong.
Although the Huo family's rise in Xiangjiang was short-lived, the Huo family is now very famous in Hong Kong. As the housekeeper here, Uncle Cai is also honored. Whenever the Huo family is mentioned outside, he is extremely proud of it and will take the initiative to protect the Huo family.
Family image, as if he has regarded himself as a member of the Huo family.
Uncle Cai yawned, bounced his legs and stretched his waist.
No matter how late he slept every day, he would get up at this time and come over in person to pick up today's newspaper for the master to read, rain or shine.
There was once a new servant who didn't understand the rules and claimed that he was afraid that Uncle Cai would be overworked, so he stole the spotlight from Uncle Cai. He took the newspaper in the morning and gave it to Mr. Huo to read in person, but was fired by Uncle Cai the next day.
Uncle Cai only said two words: "It's against the rules!"
The state has national laws, and families have family rules.
His uncle Cai's rules are very simple. He must personally deliver the newspaper to Mr. Huo to read, that's all!
After Uncle Cai finished exercising, he took a deep breath of contentment. The eight German shepherd dogs kept in the yard ran out and gathered around him in a fawning manner, sticking out their tongues and wagging their tails.
Uncle Cai waved his hand like a general, "Go back!"
The eight shepherd dogs obediently ran back to the villa and hid aside, not even daring to bark.
Uncle Cai was very satisfied with his authority, shook his sleeves, rolled them up, and then took today's newspaper from the newspaper box nailed to the wall. As for the milk stuffed next to it, he didn't even look at it.
Uncle Cai took the newspaper, turned around and walked into the villa, closed the door behind him, and then immersed himself in selecting newspapers that had major events today and arranging them at the front.
Mr. Huo likes to read newspapers and basically subscribes to all well-known newspapers and publications in Hong Kong.
There are seven or eight morning newspapers in Uncle Cai's hand, including "The English Standard", "Sing Tao Daily", "Hong Kong Morning Post", and "Ming Pao", etc.
Uncle Cai can read a little English, so he usually puts the "English Standard" at the top, because this newspaper usually contains some important policies issued by the British Hong Kong government, and there are a lot of design businesses.
Today is no exception. The most conspicuous part of the "English Standard" stated that in order to cooperate with the development of the "Tuen Mun New Town", the British Hong Kong government will continue to carry out the "reclamation" plan and open a tender for the construction team.
Uncle Cai smiled and immediately put this newspaper at the front out of habit.
But not long after, Uncle Cai was stunned.
Because he saw today's "Ming Pao".
Uncle Cai rubbed his eyes and looked at the front page of Ming Pao, wondering if he had read it wrong.
That's right, it clearly says: "Fok joined forces with Shinhwa to develop Tsuen Wan with tens of millions of dollars spent!"
"It's terrible!" Uncle Cai didn't care much, quickened his pace, almost staggered, and hurriedly walked into the living room.
…
Villa living room.
Mr. Huo was wearing a loose casual Tang suit and was slowly eating stewed chicken cake.
Fresh chicken is stewed in water and becomes smooth and tender. This is Mr. Huo's must-have meal every morning.
Many wealthy people like to rinse their mouths with ginseng tea and eat bird's nests to recuperate in the morning. However, Mr. Huo feels that he has a hard life and does not care about eating those fine and rich things. Instead, these simple meals are most suitable for him.
The more rustic the meal, the happier he will eat it.
Stewed chicken cakes like this are usually used by poor families to feed their children, but they are also a great way for middle-aged and elderly people to take care of themselves.
When Mr. Huo used a spoon to scoop out a spoonful of trembling eggs from the round egg cake and stuffed it into his mouth, Uncle Cai ran in anxiously, "Master, this is this morning's newspaper. Have you read it?"
First!"
Mr. Huo knew that Uncle Cai was always cautious and would not be so nervous. Something must have happened.
Mr. Huo put down his spoon, took a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth, then took a look at the newspaper handed over by Uncle Cai.
When he saw the headline on the front page of "Ming Pao", his expression was just slightly stunned, and then he laughed, "This Shi Zhijian is a bit interesting. It seems that he is trying to pull off the tiger's skin and pull the flag to make a bigger move!"
I read it carefully and found that the relationship between Shi Zhijian and the Huo family was very ambiguous. What about Shi Zhijian having a secret conversation with Mr. Huo for three hours? What about secret contacts, what about secret departures, what about being quiet, what about the latest revelations, all the vocabulary is basically
It can arouse everyone's desire to eat melon.
In addition, in order to prove the authenticity of this article, the author published a series of candid photos.
In the photo, Shi Zhijian stood furtively at the gate of Huo's villa, looking around as if checking to see if anyone was following him.
In addition, there are several photos that clearly capture a document bag held by Shi Zhijian in his arm. On the document bag are written two large characters in thick red writing: "Real Estate!"
"Eh? Ah Cai, take out the epidemic prevention and control plan that Shi Zhijian gave me last night!"
Soon, Ah Cai took the plan and handed it to Mr. Huo.
Mr. Huo looked at the outer packaging of the plan. It was exactly the same as the document bag in the photo. The word "real estate" was written in thick red on the bag.
Mr. Huo couldn't laugh or cry, "This Ajian is so weird! Last night I only looked at the contents of the plan, but ignored the outer packaging!"
Uncle Cai could see clearly from the side and couldn't understand whether Mr. Huo's expression was anger or praise.
"Now, since he wants to be a monkey and cause trouble in heaven, I might as well be a Tathagata Buddha once and see how he flies out of my Wuzhi Mountain! Ah Cai, summon the reporters, I have something to say!"
"Yes, sir!" Uncle Cai bowed down.
Mr. Huo looked at the newspaper in his hand and dusted it with his fingers contemptuously, as if he was dusting Shi Zhijian's little head, "You are so naughty, I need to give you some memory!"
