Chapter 418: Stormy Past
The topic of discussion within the family was a bit heavy.
Although Yang Yan is the helmsman of the family, he knows that his abilities are limited and he will definitely cut off his own resources to survive when necessary.
"Jiasheng, Yuhao, the hope for the next generation of our family lies in you two.
Yu Jing is in politics, Yu Yun is not interested in this, and the others are still young, so let’s not talk about them for now.”
"I have always had a feeling that if the Yang family fails to land in time before the next crisis comes, this freighter will sink."
Yang Wei felt ominous when listening to his elder brother's words. If he had not accelerated the acquisition of a large number of companies and land, he would not be in the difficult situation today.
The dinner ended at nine o'clock in the evening.
The women in the family are unaware of the group's crisis and are still living the extravagant and hedonistic lives of wealthy wives and daughters.
It was late at night and everyone was asleep. Zhao Sheng waited for Lin Yiyi to fall asleep. After going to the next room to see his son, he went to Zhong's father's study to have a night talk with him.
Listen to Mr. Zhong’s account of the Yang family in more detail.
The Yang family's ancestors had served as high-ranking officials. After four chaotic periods, the family businesses and savings they left behind had long been like a candle in the wind, about to be extinguished.
In the 1930s the war began.
More than a dozen cargo ships of the Yang family were requisitioned by the island country, which was called requisition but was actually robbery.
To avoid the war, Mr. Yang brought his entire family to Hong Kong with his belongings.
At the same time, a large number of people from the north flocked to Hong Kong to seek refuge, which also gave the Yang family an opportunity to rise.
The biggest turning point began after the war, when the United States imposed a strict economic blockade on the North.
In order to exchange for gasoline, rubber and chemical products, the North opened a trading port on Shanshi Island.
Mr. Yang rented a cargo ship to transport agricultural products from the mainland to the port for sale.
The defeated island nation had industrial overcapacity and a large accumulation of cheap steel, but its agriculture was depressed and there was a strong demand for food.
It just happens to form trade complementarity with the north, taking advantage of the supply and demand relationship.
Starting from 1949, he earned hundreds of thousands of Hong Kong dollars in just a few months and also founded a new shipping company.
At that time, the company only had one 30-year-old cargo ship that could only carry 1,200 tons of cargo.
Compared with the ocean-going cargo ships of tens of thousands of tons at that time, it was the old, broken and small one.
Fortunately, the Yang family was lucky and the opportunity to make a fortune soon came.
In the second year after the outbreak of the Xiaochao War, the United States joined forces with Western countries to impose a stricter embargo on the North.
Due to the "embargo", prices in the north and the small kingdom soared, and freight rates also increased, reaching as high as US$150 per ton.
What is the concept?
The old and dilapidated cargo ship is worth 300,000 Hong Kong dollars. It is fully loaded with 1,200 tons of cargo. The freight from the port to North Korea is enough to buy several old and dilapidated cargo ships.
The rate of return is comparable to a money printing machine.
Only with this did the Yang family truly rise again.
Some are happy and some are sad.
At the same time, the shipping company that was richer than the Yang family fell into a difficult situation. In early 1949, the Guoming Party retreated to the Riyue Island and requisitioned a large number of cargo ships in the port.
Transport military supplies to Sun Moon Island and transfer a large number of cultural relics and treasures from the north.
Because the Yang family's cargo ship was old, dilapidated and small, and could not pull tanks or cannons, it was not included in the requisition scope and escaped the disaster.
After listening to Zhong's father's story of the past, Zhao Sheng still couldn't guess his real intention of negotiating with him late at night in secret.
After laying the groundwork, Father Zhong sighed, “I don’t know how long we can rely on this big ship of the Yang family.
But I am not good at business, and I don’t have the family wealth to fill a hole of hundreds of millions.
Gain Capital, are you sure about the stock you like? "
Having said so much, only the last sentence reflects Mr. Zhong’s purpose, which is to choose a good tree to live in.
Zhao Sheng nodded, his serious expression full of confidence, "It is certain that the stock will rise if you hold it, and it will not rise for too long."
He estimated the area of Jiulongcang based on the current land price, and the market value was more than 5 billion.
Kejiu Longcang's stock price fluctuates by ten yuan per share, and less than 100 million shares were issued, which is less than 10 billion yuan in total.
The market value far exceeds the stock value.
It's a pity that he doesn't have much money. If he could get things from Qianzhen, he could raise some funds to buy a large number of shares.
Making a fortune is no problem.
"Are you sure?" Mr. Zhong asked again.
"affim."
Although Zhao Sheng has been in Hong Kong for less than a year, the people he has come into contact with are either politicians, businessmen or various officials.
I learned a lot through what I heard and saw.
Mr. Zhong hesitated for a moment, took out a check from the drawer and filled it out, "Use this money to buy a few shares for me, and put it in your account."
Zhao Sheng took the check, looked at the 500,000 yuan on it, and said calmly: "Whether you make a profit or a loss, it's all yours."
When helping others to take on risky investment, even fathers and sons have to make things clear.
The next morning, Saturday.
An inconspicuous piece of published news caught Zhao Sheng's attention, that Jiulongcang was planning to relocate.
My guess became more certain, and I informed Yang Yuhao of the news that day.
At night, he borrowed another 500,000 yuan from Zhong's father and 1 million yuan from Zhong's mother.
Wait for trading day on Monday.
Zhao Sheng called the stock broker to buy Jiulongcang shares. At this time, the share price had risen to HK$13.4.
A 30 percent increase over a weekend.
Cross-step climbing.
He helped Mr. Zhong buy the house for HK$500,000, plus the HK$1.5 million he borrowed from Mr. Zhong and Mrs. Zhong.
148,000 shares were purchased for HK$2 million, with 2,000 shares per lot, for a total of 74 shares.
In the afternoon, Lin Yiyi was boiling Chinese medicine at home. When she saw the large stack of stocks delivered to her, she once again admired the man's courageous and daring behavior.
After learning from Zhao Sheng that the stock price had risen to HK$13.4, Lin Yiyi happily jumped on him and started kissing him all over.
After the kiss, she held the man's cheeks with both hands, looked at him without blinking, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, future rich young master."
Zhao Sheng spread his hands and let her do what she wanted, with a smile in his eyes and a stern tone like a gentleman, "You are so unruly."
She looks like this when her salary has risen a little, she has no future.
A man in love always says one thing and means another.
"Congratulations, future rich young lady."
Lin Yiyi was so proud that she started to dream, "I like this title, I like it very much. Your label from now on will be rich young master, do you understand?"
Zhao Sheng felt a lot of pressure, frowned for a while, but finally pursed his lips and smiled and agreed, "Okay."
Yang Yuhao entered the market in the afternoon when the stock price was already 13.7. He immediately bought 2 million shares.
Compared with the issuance volume of nearly 100 million shares of Jiulongcang, it is not even a drop in the bucket.
The stock prices of hundreds of listed companies are either showing an upward trend or fluctuating, but this stock has been silent for a long time.
Few people are interested.
While everyone was not able to react, there was another person who was also coveting this sumptuous feast.
Who will win? No one knows who will have the last laugh.
