"Oh, I understand." Cao Yong finally figured it out at this time. He broke out in a cold sweat and said quickly: "I will remit the money to the capital, convert it into RMB, and then go to the post office to mail it to him."
"Also, Uncle Xiaoyong, please help me convert my aunt's and my gold into US dollars. Don't remit the money back yet. Open two anonymous accounts in Xiangjiang for later use."
"You and your aunt need money? I'll give it to you. You don't have to sell the gold."
"We don't want to use money. My aunt is going to graduate school, and I don't want my family to continue spending money on her, so I'm going to make some small investments. I also want to play with it. Now it's converted into US dollars, which is convenient for use."
"Oh, I understand, do you need to tell your dad?"
"No, grandma and my dad both said that it is up to us to decide the gold matter."
"I want it too. I want my brother to take me to play with me." Sun Yuanyuan couldn't hear the word "play". "Well, there is also my brother, what do you want?"
Dahe is an honest child and doesn't understand what they are talking about. When his sister asked him, he said solemnly: "I...I listen to my brothers and sisters. Whatever you do, I will do."
"That's 5 pieces. If you add those from your family and the Liu family, there will be 7 pieces. Uncle Xiaoyong, can you take the gold out? There are still two pieces missing from Xiangjiang." Sun Dahai asked.
"You can bring two or three pieces of gold. Just treat it as if I bought it with the 2,500 US dollars I spent on the house. There is no invoice anyway. The quantity is so small, so the country won't care about it. You can actually bring it in when you enter the country, but I have to go through customs inspection
When you declare it, because it is a state-controlled product, the state compulsorily purchases it. You can only get RMB, not gold or foreign currency directly."
"That's good. You can fly directly to Xiangjiang and don't have to suffer by taking the train."
After breakfast, Sun Dahai led his younger brothers and sisters, fully opened the courtyard door, ran outside and set off a firecracker, which was called opening the door to welcome the God of Joy on the first day of the new year.
Cao Yong was going to make a phone call. Sun Dahai thought for a while, then handed his younger siblings to his aunt and got on the back seat of Cao Yong's bicycle.
From now on, people are coming one after another to pay New Year's greetings. Last year, there was no way. Sun Dahai wanted to buy stamps with the New Year's money, so he waited at home and acted cute to make New Year's money. This year, there is no need to do this again.
Sun Dahai also found an opportunity to go out. If a reborn person always earns the little New Year's money from his miserable relatives and friends, he might as well just die. This is too low of status.
Sun Dahai glanced at Cao Yong in front of him resentfully, and thought to himself: If you could have come back last year and given me one hundred yuan as a gift, or even just ten or twenty yuan, I wouldn't be so showy.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the streets were deserted and there were very few people. It was not as lively as the alleys. There was not much sense of service in this era. During the Chinese New Year, state-owned stores and restaurants were basically closed for the holidays.
Fortunately, the Telegraph Building is not on holiday, so Cao Yong can pay New Year greetings to his wife who is far away in Xiangjiang.
Sun Dahai waited in the telegraph building for two full hours before he came out with Cao Yong after making the phone call.
Cao Yong made three calls in total. The call time was not very long, but it was mainly waiting for manual connection. To be honest, this era is very friendly to foreign guests and overseas Chinese. Cao Yong finished all three calls to Xiangjiang, and the phone room next door
There is a route for a high-ranking official in Hubei, but it has not been connected yet.
Cao Yong was very excited after talking on the phone. He did not ride a bicycle, but pushed a car and talked with Sun Dahai while walking.
"Your aunt and the baby in her belly are both fine. She is now living in her parents' home and is being taken care of by her parents. I am also relieved. I told her and she will go back to our home soon and get the five large yellow croakers.
The nearby Standard Chartered Bank will sell it and open four anonymous accounts for you to deposit in. When we call next time, she will tell me the account number and password, and you can operate it directly over the phone in the future."
Cao Yong paused and continued: "For the second call, I called lawyer Yu Kaihao. He is my friend and a solicitor who specializes in corporate affairs and commercial contract disputes. I entrusted him to help register your home.
company, he told me that all procedures for 'Sun's Investment Company' have been completed. In other words, now we can prepare to formally negotiate investment matters with the government."
"Great. However, Uncle Xiaoyong, when I chatted with my grandfather, I learned that the mainland government does not seem to understand investment companies now. The government is more willing to accept companies that are directly engaged in production. Of course, exporting in exchange for foreign exchange is the best
.So I think we need to add another layer below the investment company. Please ask lawyer Yu Kaihao to help register another company. It will be called 'Shiweitian Natural Food Co., Ltd.' and the business scope should be larger, including various types of products.
Cultivation, breeding, processing and sales of natural food ingredients.”
"For food companies, there are more procedures to register and the waiting time will be very long. I will call him next time and ask him if he has any relevant shell companies. If so, just buy one and change the name.
, just adjust the business scope. In this way, we can talk after the Chinese New Year and government officials go to work." Cao Yong made a good suggestion.
"That's great. But is there such a shell company? Will it be expensive or cause other troubles?" Sun Dahai asked.
"Shell companies are also called ready-made companies. There are many such shell companies in Hong Kong. They are a corporate legal form established according to the Britten Company Law. There will definitely be one in the hands of a lawyer, and he is a lawyer, and the company in his hands
There will be no legal loopholes. The key is to see whether the business scope is appropriate. If not, major changes will be made, which will waste time."
"Okay, as long as the shell company is no problem." Sun Dahai was satisfied.
"I finally called my uncle to wish me a happy New Year. It happened that my uncle wanted to talk to me about something. Yesterday when he attended the New Year's Eve reception of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce, a large real estate developer offered a high price to buy the land occupied by my family's printing factory. My uncle
He seems very tempted and wants to ask me, how is the investment environment in mainland China? Can we move the factory to mainland China?"
Sun Dahai was stunned. Someone actually wanted to take over the real estate right now. This was a living thing and he couldn't let it go.
"Uncle Xiaoyong, what do you think?"
"The printing factory at home has good technology and equipment, and the land is still sold at low prices before. It's just that Xiangjiang is too small and there are only big customers, so the business has been stagnant. Labor costs have increased significantly in recent years.
The profit margins have been squeezed. My uncle has been considering moving the factory for the past two years, but has never made up his mind."
"Sell the land and move to Shezui Industrial Zone. It was established not long ago and the infrastructure construction has just been completed. The policies are very favorable now and it is very close to Xiangjiang. You don't have to lose your original customers. It's just an increase in transportation fees. But
The labor cost in mainland China is very low, so we can never lose money. Moreover, the factory can also develop customers from mainland China in the future." Sun Dahai helped them make up their mind.
"I think so too, but my uncle is worried that if the factory is relocated, the equipment is debugged, and new employees are trained, it will take four to five months. He is worried that many old customers will be lost."
"What was your printing factory's main business in the past?"
"Most paper printing can be done, such as books, newspapers, movie posters, leaflets, etc."
