Chen Dong's words startled the two of them.
A monthly salary of 10,000?
This salary is not low.
Their purchasing power was equivalent to hundreds of thousands or millions in later generations.
In 1990, let alone 10,000 yuan a month, even a monthly salary of 1,000 yuan would be a dream come true.
"Boss, are you serious?"
Upon hearing this, the two men's eyes widened like saucers.
On the side.
Even the usually stern-faced Wolong looked at Chen Dong with some surprise.
One can imagine the shock that Chen Dong's words brought to the group.
"Of course, I, Chen Dong, keep my word!"
Chen Dong didn't think much of it, and he was even less aware that the 10,000 yuan salary he mentioned was equivalent to decades of allowances for soldiers in the military.
"So, boss, what do you need us to do?"
The tiger swallowed hard and said with some difficulty.
"Boss, we don't do anything illegal."
The fox chimed in, but his tone sounded noticeably lacking in confidence.
Moreover, the voice was so soft that he probably couldn't even hear it himself.
"Wolong, didn't you tell them?"
Chen Dong turned to look at Wolong and noticed a rare hint of embarrassment on his face.
"Boss, I only said that you need manpower and the pay is very good, but I didn't say anything else."
Hearing this, Chen Dong was both amused and exasperated, and then said to the two of them.
"I'm just protecting my safety. I won't let you do anything illegal or disorderly. If you're willing to work for me, Wolong will arrange jobs for you two."
Upon hearing this, the two glanced at Wolong, who nodded.
The two said in unison.
"Boss, we're willing to work for you."
"very good!"
"You two can go now. Let Wolong take you to change your clothes..."
"By the way, give me your documents in a bit, and I'll have someone process your immigration procedures. We're going to Hong Kong across the border in the next couple of days, so you'd better be prepared."
"clear!"
Watching the three figures disappear into the distance, Chen Dong nodded in satisfaction.
They obey orders without question, and they never ask why. This is why Chen Dong likes soldiers.
As for the high salary of 10,000 yuan per month for each person, Chen Dong did not take it seriously.
Compared to money, life is obviously more important.
......
Thursday, May 26.
Chen Dong and his group crossed the border and soon arrived at Hong Kong on the other side.
Mr. Huang has already sent people to wait on the other side.
The car was a European-style minivan; most people here drive European models.
"Brother Chen, please get in the car."
Mr. Huang opened the car door and invited Chen Dong to get in.
"Thank you for your trouble, Mr. Huang."
"We're already so familiar with each other, why are you still calling me Boss Huang?"
“Brother Chen, if you don’t mind, you can call me Brother Huang, or you can call me by my real name, Huang Yuanzhong.”
"In short, let's not call him Boss Huang anymore. It makes it sound like we're not on the same wavelength."
Huang Yuanzhong chuckled, using a joking tone to cover up his embarrassment.
He did not deny that he wanted to get closer to Chen Dong.
Generally, the closeness of a relationship can be roughly judged from how one addresses others.
"It was my fault, Brother Huang, please don't mind."
"Hahaha... I don't mind at all, of course I don't mind. It's an honor for me, Huang, that Brother Chen is willing to acknowledge me as his brother. I'm overjoyed."
"Quickly, let's get in the car first. I've already booked a table at the hotel. We'll try some local specialties from Hong Kong later."
Chen Dong and the others got into the car one after another.
Accompanying him were his three bodyguards: Wolong, Tiger, and Fox.
Lin Zhiyuan and Chen Nan also followed.
In her older sister's words, she had never been to Hong Kong before and wanted to take this opportunity to visit.
Chen Dong thought for a moment. His family would immigrate here sooner or later, so it was good for Chen Nan to come and see the place in advance. It was only a matter of a few days anyway, so he didn't say anything more.
He simply told Chen Nan that he was very busy lately and didn't have time to spend with her.
In the end, the task of providing companionship fell to Lin Zhiyuan.
Along the way, there were tall buildings everywhere, dozens of stories high.
Looking at the scene outside the car window, Chen Nan's mouth dropped open in astonishment.
"Wow, so many tall buildings! And they're so densely packed together."
"Dongzi, will we be living in a high-rise like this in the future?"
Lin Zhiyuan understands this point all too well.
Shenzhen is at the forefront of reform and is changing every day.
But compared to the bustling city of Hong Kong, it still has a long way to go.
"Ha ha......"
Upon hearing this, Huang Yuanzhong, who was sitting in the front row, immediately laughed and said with a smile.
“Young lady, you’re wrong. These high-rise buildings are for the poor people of Hong Kong.”
"What......?"
Chen Nan's eyes widened, and he gasped.
In her view, the high-rise buildings, which were already incredibly nice, were actually for the poor to live in.
According to this logic, aren't those wealthy Hong Kongers living in heaven?
Lin Zhiyuan was equally dumbfounded and asked in astonishment.
"Brother Huang, are you kidding me? Such a prime location, only for poor people to live in?"
"Where do those rich people live? It's not the Dragon Palace, is it?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Dong shook his head with amusement and explained.
“That’s not what Brother Huang meant. People in Hong Kong really believe in feng shui.”
There's a saying in Feng Shui: "A bright hall in front and a mountain behind," which refers to the living environment.
"Therefore, all the wealthy people here live on the hillside."
