After the storm, Hong Kong was completely quiet, and the damp soil exuded a fishy smell.
Kowloon, Wan Kwok Funeral Home.
As soon as the funeral home opened, nearly a hundred people lined up outside. Most of them were construction site workers, food factory workers, and employees of Shinhwa Group.
These people are here to "send off" the big boss Shi Zhijian today.
They heard the news of Shi Zhijian's death and the obituary announcement that a memorial service would be held today, so they all came over at the same time.
They all came here sincerely, and the things they brought to pay homage were very ordinary, including yellow paper, roast chicken, and even steamed buns. Most of them brought fruits, especially the bananas that Shi Zhijian finally ate.
"The boss likes eating bananas! Every time I do something wrong, he doesn't hit or scold me, he just tells me to eat bananas! I know he is blaming me, and I am very angry! But the next day I have to
I know that he taught me the cost of surgery for my old mother, and the reason why I made mistakes before was because I was worried about my mother's surgery!" said a man carrying a bag of bananas.
"Mr. Shi is a good man! I work in an instant noodle factory. My daughter was sent to the employee kindergarten run by the factory. My mother applied for a nursing home run by the factory. Now I have no worries and just focus on making a lot of money!" A fat man carrying a basket
Roast chicken in hand, "Now that I have saved some money, I stopped working in the factory and opened a small factory. I also made some money. I will treat the boss to a chicken today!"
These people were talking and laughing, and their eyes were wet with laughter.
Shi Zhijian is a capitalist, but he is also a conscientious capitalist. At least he treats his workers and subordinates like family members!
Especially the workers at the Wharf construction site. When Shi Zhijian was building the Wharf, he ate and lived with them. He had no boss airs at all. The older ones even dared to call Shi Zhijian "Akin" or "Jianzi".
——Now that Kin Tsai has passed away, the old people like them came to see him off on his last journey.
…
In the hall of Wanguo Funeral Home.
There were wreaths and memorial items on both sides. The entire hall was decorated in black and white, making it look extremely solemn.
In front of the main hall, there is a mourning hall with a banner with black characters on white cloth: Died young, his voice will last forever.
On the altar, incense burner, incense candles.
The shadow of the candle flickered.
A large black and white photo of Shi Zhijian was placed in the center. In the photo, he showed his teeth and smiled brightly.
Shi Yufeng was wearing plain clothes, holding Bao'er's hand, and they knelt down and sat aside.
Although the three women, Bai Leti, Nie Yongqin and Su Youwei, have not yet been married to the Shi family by Shi Zhijian, they are willing to act as widows today, wearing plain clothes and kneeling with Shi Yufeng as their wives.
Xu Sanshao and Huo Shao's eyes were red. They stayed up late last night to guard the mourning hall, and early in the morning they started to help Shi Yufeng and others take care of the guests who came to worship. It can be said that they didn't even have time to rest after being so busy.
No.
In fact, for things like Shi Zhijian's death, Shi Yufeng originally wanted to inform Shijiacun Shi Taigong and others to come and arrange the funeral, but was stopped by Xu Shao and Huo Shao. The two of them knew that Shi Zhijian did not like to see this person very much during his lifetime.
If you invite them over this time, you might be able to do something if you invite them to come.
After all, Shi Yufeng was a woman, and she had no backbone for such a big deal. She only knew that Xu Shao and Huo Shao were her younger brother's best friends and would never harm her.
Facts have proved that the decision of Xu Sanshao and Huo Shao was right. Shi Taigong and his gang were greedy for profit. When Shi Zhijian was here, they were probably eager to join in and take advantage. Now that he has passed away, if they were called here, they would be a bunch of wolves.
I really want to carve up Shi Zhijian’s property!
Now that they are shut out, they can better protect Shi Zhijian's accumulated family property.
"Third Young Master, Young Master Huo, you are tired too, go and rest for a while!" Shi Yufeng felt a little sorry to see the two of them working so hard.
Xu Sanshao shook his head, pointed outside and said: "These people are Ajian factory workers and company employees. I know many of them. I can welcome them!"
"Yes, we are young and can still bear it!" Mr. Huo said with dark circles under his eyes.
When Shi Yufeng saw this, it was hard to say anything more.
It was almost noon, and there were many people coming to pay homage, but they were all small figures, and not many of the big guys from Xiangjiang came.
Dai Fengnian from the Dai Group is here. After all, he is also Shi Zhijian’s cheap uncle.
Su Diwen, the son-in-law of the charter king, came and was a good friend of Shi Zhijian.
Lin Jianming, the eldest son of the Lin family, is here. He and Shi Zhijian are very good partners.
People kept picking up the phone here and came over and said to Shi Yufeng: "Sister Yufeng, Chief Shen Bi of HSBC Bank said that she can't come because she has something to do."
"Oh, I got it! It's okay."
"Sister Yufeng, Saipan, the CEO of Standard Chartered Bank, can't come. He said he has a meeting today and asked me to send you a message to express my condolences!"
"Oh, I see, he has a heart!"
There were a lot of calls, mostly from the big guys who called to say hello, to express their condolences to Shi Yufeng, and to say that Shi Zhijian died young and Xiangjiang was devastated by the loss of a talented person. Some people greeted her on the phone and even sent wreaths.
Some even didn't even make a call.
At first, everyone thought it was nothing. After all, these big shots all had a lot to deal with, so it was understandable that they couldn't get away from things. All they had to do was call and say hello.
But gradually, not only Xu Sanshao and Huo Shao smelled something unusual, but even Shi Yufeng, a lame woman, felt that it was "too much of a coincidence".
Soon, someone who inquired about the news came over and reported that the Hong Kong Fu family and the Lee family were going to hold a groundbreaking ceremony for the Furama Hotel, and many Hong Kong bigwigs went there to support it.
"Things are going well, it's better to have tea after leaving!" Xu Sanshao clasped his hands behind his back and looked at the large black and white photo of Shi Zhijian on the mourning hall, "Ajian, you must not be unhappy. Friends are more valuable than others. We have a few of us to give you a gift."
That’s enough!”
But Young Master Huo couldn't help but said angrily: "These gangs are attacking the street! They are not good people! Like Li Fuzhao, the president of Far East Bank, Ajian helped him invite Rockefeller to support the opening of his exchange! Now he has
Not even ghosts are here! There is also Brando, the ghost guy from the Planning Bureau of the British Hong Kong government. Now that Ajian has just passed away, he can’t wait to flatter the Fu family! I’ll give him a thumbs up!"
"People's hearts are separated from each other! We can't force others to do anything!" Xu Sanshao said helplessly.
Then he looked at Shi Zhijian's photo and saw the shadow of the candle flickering.
At this moment, someone outside suddenly heard a loud shout: "We have guests! Mr. Zhuang Jiajun of Cheung Kong Industries, come to pay homage to Mr. Shi Zhijian!"
