My uncle took a sip of tea and continued, "Fortunately, the governor was not in Nandu those two days.
After my father learned the news, he secretly sold all his properties at a low price, leaving only the house to deceive people.
After dealing with the property, my father did not dare to delay. After taking out all his savings, he took us to charter a boat and headed south.
As soon as our ship left the port, we saw that the dock was under martial law.
It must be that warlord who took action and is searching for us.
In this way, we were lucky enough to escape from Nandu.
Because my mother was in poor health and my father didn't dare to leave far away, we stayed in the port city.
There were very few people in Hong Kong at that time, only a few hundred thousand.
We brought all our savings with us, so we quickly got on our feet.
My father has been in business all his life, and he is very successful in Hong Kong. The Lin family has developed step by step.
I don't like to take care of these things. Now these businesses are managed by your uncle and his wife.
When your aunt and I have nothing to do, we'll look after our grandson and take care of your grandmother's dowry.
It’s just right that you came this time, I was just worrying about something.”
"What can possibly trouble you, grandpa?" Zhang Xudong asked curiously.
"After your great-grandmother arrived in Hong Kong, she has been missing and worrying about your sister.
This made her already frail body even worse, and she died within two years.
When she left, she kept telling my father and me to find my sister and asked my father to give her sister the additional dowry.
The father felt sorry for the mother and daughter, so he built a building in Tsim Sha Tsui and named it Yuxiu Building.
He also bought a wharf in Kowloon with two berths for medium-sized cargo ships.
It also comes with a warehouse and a 5,000-ton cargo ship.
Both of these properties were given as your grandmother's dowry.
These are all managed separately, and the income is saved for your grandmother.
When my father passed away a few years ago, he told me, your uncle, and your aunt to do our best to find your grandmother.
He also made a will, stating that if I couldn't find my sister in this lifetime, all these properties should be donated to charity in my sister's name.
He said that since he couldn't live to compensate his daughter, he should help her accumulate more blessings.
I hope she can be reborn into a good family in her next life and live a happy and comfortable life."
When my uncle said this, he was already in tears and sobbing.
Zhang Xudong checked his eyes and advised:
"Grandpa, you shouldn't be sad, haven't we met now?
I will bring grandma to meet you soon.
This is a happy event, and we should be happy."
The old man also checked his face and said:
"Yes, this is a happy occasion. Adong, you must bring your grandmother and little sister over as soon as possible.
We will live here from now on and won’t leave. Our family will be reunited.”
"Okay, uncle, I'll go back and pick them up after I get their ID cards." Zhang Xudong promised.
"Adong, I just wanted to tell you about the incident at the dock.
There's nothing wrong with that building, the rent is increasing every year.
This pier is no longer in service.
Since the construction of Kwai Chung Container Terminal, no cargo ships have docked at the Kowloon terminal.
Now I am losing money all the time, and I am thinking about selling it and switching to another business."
When Zhang Xudong heard this, he knew that this was not possible. Not to mention the wharf in Kowloon, any land in the port city could not be sold anywhere.
"No, please don't sell them, I need them.
Uncle, from now on we can only buy land in Gangcheng, not sell it.
Look at how many more people are coming to Hong Kong City now! In the future, more and more people will come to Hong Kong City.
Anyone who comes must have a place to stay.
This person is here to make a living, and there are shops for those who want to do business.
Aren’t these all about asking for land?
Therefore, land in Hong Kong will become increasingly difficult to buy and increasingly expensive in the future.
Especially the place on this mountain is suitable for building a house.
In the future, there will be more and more wealthy people in Hong Kong.
But here, how many houses can be built on the top and at the foot of the mountain?
Uncle, can you tell me if there is any land available for sale on the top of the mountain?
If there is one, we can build four or five houses for him on the top of the mountain.
From then on, Pengyu could just lie at home and do nothing, and he would never have to worry about food and drink.
As for the place at the dock, not only can we not sell it, we have to buy it.
If anyone wants to sell the pier, we can buy it for him.
If you want to do it, you can take the ferry. If you don’t want to do it, you can just leave it there.”
"Is what you said reliable? Don't waste all your money.
"The dowry I've saved for your grandmother over the years is only over 10 million yuan," said my uncle worriedly.
"Dad, I think what Adong said makes sense.
In recent years, the number of bank accounts opened and capital transactions has increased year by year.
This shows that the population of the port city is increasing year by year, and the transaction volume and people's deposits are also increasing.
The economy of Hong Kong City is already developing rapidly," said Aunt Lin.
"Dad, what Adong and Li Hui said is right.
The price our real estate companies pay for land is getting higher and higher.
Buildings are now being built taller and taller.
There is no problem selling houses these days. As long as they are built, whether they are residential or commercial, there will be people who want them.
I am now thinking of building a few office buildings and shops, and renting them out instead of selling them, for fear of tying up my working capital.
Adong, do you want to join us? How about we work together?
We each contribute half the money and get half the shares," Lin Nandu said.
"Uncle, I can lend you whatever amount of money you need, why are you going through all this trouble?
