Chen Rou first meets Nie Zhao because of an anti-terrorism case involving Hong Kong's wealthy elite. He is the richest man in Hong Kong for many years, and a renowned powerful figure. Even thou...
The person the original owner liked, Chen Rou also liked. She smiled and said, "Yu Yan, sit down and chat with us for a while."
Mrs. Bao came specifically to deliver drinks so that her daughter could have more contact with the two young masters of the Nie family, and here they are.
Actually, the children are all very young, only seventeen or eighteen years old.
However, it is a common practice among Hong Kong's wealthy families to arrange marriages between children. By letting them fall in love, the adults can then naturally discuss business opportunities and make a fortune together.
Seeing that Bao Yuyan had sat down, Mrs. Bao said with a smile, "You two can chat slowly. I'll go tell the staff to cut some fruit and prepare some snacks."
Bao Yuyan and Nie Han had a good relationship, and the two of them sat down next to Chen Rou.
Guo Fuzheng sat opposite him, with Nie Jiayu and Nie Jiajun sitting on either side of him. Chen Rou specially pushed the bird's nest towards Guo Fuzheng, smiling and saying, "Try it. This bird's nest must have been stewed by Mrs. Bao herself."
Guo Fuzheng was flattered and overwhelmed: "How could I possibly accept this?"
Chen Rou also laughed: "I've always been particularly interested in the mainland, but I just don't know much about it. I'd love to hear you talk about it. Have a sip of bird's nest soup to moisten your mouth, and tell us about the customs and culture of the mainland."
Guo Fuzheng is still young, and he is surrounded by young masters and ladies from wealthy families. With the richest man's wife smiling and praising him, the boy naturally gets a little cocky.
He said, "Mrs. Nie, please feel free to ask me anything. I will answer everything I know."
Chen Rou glanced at Nie Han, who was one of the people who had fought her way out of the pirate den, and immediately understood and clapped: "Guo, you're really great."
She clapped, and Bao Yuyan wanted to clap too, and the Nie Jiayu brothers echoed her, each joining in.
Amid applause, Chen Rou didn't directly pose a question, but instead asked Guo Fuzheng, "Currently, in mainland China, which country has the highest status for businessmen? If I were to establish a successful business there, it would be Hong Kong, wouldn't it?"
Guo Fu had no idea that this woman would later become a female special police officer renowned for her interrogation skills.
He waved his hand: "On the surface, Hong Kong is obviously superior, but the national situation is what it is. Hong Kong and the mainland will be one family sooner or later. It's enough to be polite on the surface. If the government is really willing to make concessions behind the scenes, that would have to be..."
He deliberately kept everyone in suspense before saying, "Taiwanese businessmen."
Currently, Hong Kong looks down on Taiwan, considering its people to be poor and fussy.
Upon hearing that he was a Taiwanese businessman, the group of children were all shocked: "No way!"
Chen Rou crossed her legs and said, "This is indeed quite unbelievable, but I believe Mr. Guo has a special explanation. Come on, tell us why."
It must be said that although Guo Fuzheng's family connections didn't reach the level of the Navy Commander, they did have connections in the local area. It was because of these connections that they were able to do business in Hong Kong during that era.
On one side were the young masters and ladies waiting to hear the news, and on the other side was Mrs. Nie stirring things up with a mixture of belief and doubt. Guo Fuzheng then began to explain: "Why? Because the British Empire, which Hong Kong relies on, is far inferior to the backing of Taiwan, the United States!"
The young man got excited as he spoke: "If Taiwanese businessmen go there, they can call the SWAT team whenever they want, but Hong Kong businessmen can't."
...
This kind of thing is really infuriating.
Like Chen Ke, Song Yuanchao, Yue Zhongqi, Sun Dahe, and Wang Baodao, who shed blood on the front lines of Laoshan, endured malaria and dengue fever in the Philippines, and survived round after round of life-or-death battles, Chen Rou's predecessors, when they transitioned from soldiers to special police officers, carried out tasks in specific eras, such as clearing paths for international friends and protecting their safety, in order to attract friendly businesses, promote cooperation, and improve the lives of ordinary people.
Therefore, whenever Taiwanese businessmen arrive, they have to go whenever the local government summons them.
However, how could Chen Rou tolerate people like Guo Fuzheng's father and Guo Xiaobai, who exploited loopholes in the policy to play with her seniors?
At the same time, she also discovered a problem: the rampant drugs are always difficult to detect, and they are likely being smuggled in through special privileges. If that's the case, Chen Rou is about to make a big move.
Looking at my mobile phone again, there was still no call from the Taiwanese guy.
To achieve great things, one must not be impatient. Well then, Chen Rou should calm down first and deal with these little brats while she's at it.
Just then, Mrs. Bao brought over drinks and snacks. She took a bottle of iced cola, but didn't open it to drink. Instead, she smiled and asked Nie Jiayu and Nie Jiajun, "By the way, what do you think of my horseback riding skills just now?"
Need I say more?
Mrs. Bao quickly interjected, saying, "I can't believe that Arou has never ridden before, but your skill level is enough to qualify you for professional races."
Nie Jiayu frowned and asked, "Xi Niang, did you learn your horsemanship at the artist training class?"
Chen Rou lied with a straight face: "Of course."
People always say that two years of compulsory military service will forge a lifelong bond with the military. Chen Rou's six-month training course has almost turned her into an all-rounder.
Nie Jiayu scratched his head and looked at Nie Jiajun: "Brother, do you think it's because Xi Niang is so talented? Like in the movies, she's a martial arts prodigy. Otherwise, how could it have only been half a year?"
Chen Rou continued to lie: "Actually, it's because the masters who taught me were all incredibly awesome."
Now that's interesting, even Guo Fuzheng is intrigued: "Madam Nie, who is your master? Are you still taking on apprentices?"
Chen Rou countered with a question: "Do you know how many military horse farms there are on the mainland?"
Several young masters and ladies looked at Guo Fuzheng and asked, "How many?"
Guo Fuzheng didn't even know what a military horse farm was, so he shook his head. Chen Rou looked on in astonishment: "Really? Just last year, on the front lines of the Vietnam War, in those mountainous and steep places, the mainland cavalry slaughtered the enemy so badly they couldn't even lift their heads. And according to my riding instructor, he trained his riding skills in the mainland's military horse farms. He also said that there are more than fifty military horse farms on the mainland, and even the smallest one has three thousand fine horses. You don't even know that?"
