Chapter 363: Underground Vault Officially Opened
Ye Jin is pregnant!
When Hardy saw the telegram, he stood there in a daze, his heart pounding with joy, excitement or surprise.
When the gangs were killing people,
His heart had never beaten so fast before.
When I made my first million dollars,
His heart had never beaten so fast before.
When you become an American tycoon.
His heart had never beaten so wildly before.
Many of the things he is planning now are big things like establishing the Cayman offshore center, splitting up the Japanese economy, and acquiring a piece of territory in Southeast Asia.
But none of these made his heart beat as wildly as it did now.
Yi-jin is pregnant, which means the continuation of her bloodline. When she heard the news, her mood suddenly changed drastically.
In the past, he always felt that this world was illusory and unreal, but now it suddenly became real.
He picked up the coat he had just taken off and put it back on, then said to his assistant, "Call the airport right away and tell them I want to fly to Hong Kong."
"Oh, by the way, send a telegram to Victor in Hong Kong and tell him that I will arrive in Hong Kong in a few hours and ask him to arrange to pick me up at the airport."
After saying these two sentences, Hardy ran out. The driver and bodyguard were outside and immediately got in the car to take Hardy to the airport.
The plane stopped for only one hour before taking off again and flying to Hong Kong. More than four hours later, the plane finally arrived in Hong Kong. It was already 11 o'clock in the evening. When Hardy got off the plane, he saw Victor and his men standing outside the plane waiting.
"Boss, what's the hurry? I've asked the security team to be ready and ready to take action at any time?" Victor said seriously.
He had never seen his boss in such a hurry before, something big must have happened.
"Haha, no need for security team, just send me to Yejin." Hardy said with a smile.
Get in the car.
The convoy set out.
Hadi asked Victor, "What has Yejin been doing these days?"
"Didn't you have someone send a large amount of antique gold over? It's all in the vault now. Miss Han often goes there and spends a lot of time looking around when she has nothing to do. But a few days ago she said she felt a little unwell and hasn't been to the vault for two days." Victor said.
uncomfortable?
I guess it's a pregnancy reaction.
Hardy had no wife or children in his previous life and had never experienced such a thing, but in an information-rich society, he naturally knew these common sense.
The convoy arrived at the Mid-Levels Manor soon. The housekeeper opened the door and was slightly surprised to see that it was Hardy. "Master, you are here. I didn't receive any prior notice."
"I came in a hurry, where is Ye-jin?" Hadi asked.
"The young lady has gone to bed." said the housekeeper.
Hardy asked Victor and the security guards to leave as they had nothing to do here. He walked into the bedroom and gently opened the door. The light from the corridor shone in and he saw Han Ye-jin sleeping soundly.
Hardy tiptoed over to the bed.
Dare not make a move.
Maybe it was the change in light, Han Ye-jin slowly opened her eyes and saw Hardy standing in front of her bed. She asked dazedly, "Are you dreaming?"
Hardy smiled.
Sitting by the window, touching Han Ye-jin's face.
"I just arrived in Japan, and rushed here as soon as I saw the telegram." As he spoke, he held Han Ye-jin's face with his palms and gently rubbed it with his thumb.
Han Yizhen felt the warmth and knew that the man had really come back. She immediately woke up and held the man's waist with her hands. She said in surprise: "You really came. I thought I was dreaming. I sent you a telegram just to tell you. Why are you so anxious?"
Hardy reached out and touched the woman's lower abdomen.
"How do you know?"
"I had a loss of appetite and felt groggy a few days ago. I thought it was because of the weather at first, but then I kept feeling nauseous and wanted to vomit. The housekeeper called a doctor, who said I might be pregnant after an examination."
"Later, I consulted a Chinese medicine doctor, who also said that I was pregnant. That was when I confirmed it."
"I originally wanted to tell you after some time, but then I thought if I didn't tell you, you would be surprised to have a son or daughter when you come to Hong Kong, so I sent you a telegram anyway."
Han Ye-jin said with a smile.
This girl has also learned to make jokes, which made Hardy feel a little amused and helpless.
If I come back a year later and see a child, I will probably be really shocked.
But this kind of thing is impossible to happen. He has people all over Hong Kong, including Victor, security companies, and intelligence companies. Even if Yi-jin doesn't say anything, he will definitely hear the news within a month or two.
"You must be tired after the long flight. Just lie down on the bed." Han Ye-jin let go of Hardy and said.
Hardy took off his clothes and got into the woman's quilt. Their bodies were pressed together. Hardy's big hand passed through the woman's pajamas and touched her smooth belly.
Average,
No changes from before.
But Hardy felt differently, because here, the seeds he planted were sprouting and nurturing a little life.
Han Yizhen's face turned red and her body became hot when the man touched her. She whispered, "The doctor said that it's the danger period now and we can't do that. We have to wait until the danger period is over."
Hardy is not that impatient.
Know the seriousness of the matter.
"Haha, I don't have any other ideas. I just want to say hello in advance to that little guy who might be my son or daughter."
The two hugged each other.
Han Ye-jin told Hardy the details of her discovery, and the two chatted for a long time. Finally, Han Ye-jin tied herself up and snuggled in Hardy's arms and fell asleep, sleeping more soundly.
I woke up at around ten o'clock the next day.
After realizing that Hardy was no longer around, she got up, washed, and dressed. She had just gotten pregnant, so there was actually no difference between her and a normal person. When Han Ye-jin came to the living room, she saw quite a few people sitting there.
Several white-haired old men are particularly eye-catching.
Hardy stood up and took Han Ye-jin's hand, smiling and saying to her, "Let me introduce you to something. Hardy Group has a Chinese medicine research institute. These are all researchers from the institute. They are all masters of Chinese medicine. I'll ask a few of them to come over and check your pulse."
Today, the Hong Kong Institute of Chinese Medicine has gathered more than 30 doctors, most of whom are well-known figures in the medical field with family traditions. These people are not idle in the institute, and have come up with dozens of Chinese patent medicines that are very suitable for sale, including those that can be eaten, drunk, applied, smeared, and pasted.
Hong Kong pharmaceutical factories are now expanding and preparing to produce more varieties of Chinese patent medicines for the market.
Mr. Zhao Weihan took Han Yizhen's pulse and let go of her hand after about ten minutes. He smiled and said to Hardy, "Congratulations, Mr. Hardy. Miss Han is indeed pregnant. Her pulse is very stable and everything is normal."
After that, he looked at the other old man and said, "Old Zheng, you specialize in gynecology, and you can check Miss Han's pulse."
Zheng Youqian is an expert in gynecology. After checking Han Yizhen's pulse, he nodded and said, "Miss Han has a good physique. The abortion is going very well. Everything is normal."
Hardy believed what these people said.
Before the advent of Western medical testing machines in later generations, pulse diagnosis was an unrivaled ability, comparable to human CT scans and blood analyzers.
"Do you need some tonic?" Hardy asked.
Zheng Youqian immediately shook his head, "Medicine is poisonous to some extent. If there is no serious problem, try not to take medicine. Miss Han is in good health now. She has sufficient nutrition. She will definitely give birth to a healthy baby."
"Just be more careful about your diet in the future and avoid eating things that are too cold or too hot, such as crabs, turtles, barley, and pork liver."
"There are also spices such as star anise, prickly ash, pepper, cinnamon, and allspice, which are hot in nature. Although they are not strictly prohibited, you should try to eat less of them."
"As for fruits, longan and lychee are warm in nature and can easily cause fetal heat. People with anemia should eat less pomegranate, and watermelon can be eaten less."
Hardy listened and nodded, then said to the housekeeper, "Let Mr. Zheng write down the precautions, and you can tell the chef to pay attention to them when cooking in the future."
"Yes, sir." The butler responded quickly.
The old gentlemen left, and only Hardy and Han Ye-jin were left in the room. "Be careful with everything from now on, and don't work too hard, okay?" Hardy warned.
Han Ye-jin smiled.
She looked at Hardy affectionately, her eyes full of happiness. The man was very nervous and cared about her. She felt very happy.
"It's only been two months. Actually, there's no difference between her and ordinary people. There are so many pregnant women and children in the world. There's no need to be so nervous. It's normal for women to give birth." Han Ye-jin said.
As for the children they were expecting, neither of them asked. In fact, it didn't matter what they had. Such a family would like to have many children, so they would want both sons and daughters.
Leaving a suspense,
Everything that happens is a surprise.
"By the way, you suddenly got so many antiques. I heard that you brought them from Japan?" Han Ye-jin asked.
"I didn't get it. Although I'm Japan's special economic envoy, I never take bribes. Don't worry, I'm always an honest official." Hardy said.
Han Ye-jin was amused by Hardy's words.
He didn't need to take bribes because he didn't care about that little money, but she knew that Hardy wanted big money and he could even scheme against the President of the United States.
"Those antiques were mortgaged to Wells Fargo by the Japanese. The Japanese took out loans and got the funds, and all went to the US to invest in the stock market. Wells Fargo didn't have a suitable place to store these antiques in Japan, so they moved them here."
Hardy's statement was very official. At least anyone who came to check could clearly understand how these antiques came to him.
"There are more than 100,000 antiques, and I have only seen a small part of them. Many of them are rare masterpieces. Please accompany me to see them again. I'm afraid that when I go back, I won't be able to see them anymore." Han Yezhen said.
Hardy thought to himself, it's impossible to go back.
There is no reason to return things that have come into my hands.
But he was also very curious about what was there. After collecting antiques in the past few days, he also became an antique lover and wanted to go and take a look.
"Okay, I'll go with you to have a look. I'm also curious about what's there."
We called the guards and bodyguards and drove to the museum. The main building outside the museum had been completely built and more than half of the decoration had been completed. It was estimated that it would be completely completed in another two months.
Accompanied by staff, the two came to the underground vault.
Today, there are not only a large number of antiques in the vault, but also a batch of gold, more than 30 tons, of which 10 tons were looted from Chiang Kai-shek, and the other 20 tons were collected from the Japanese, and placed in a separate vault on the bottom floor.
30 tons of gold is actually not much. Gold is heavy, and 30 tons of gold is only 1.5 cubic meters.
This time I came mainly to look at antiques. These antiques were shipped here, all packed in large wooden boxes. In the vault, some have been unpacked and the antiques have been taken out and placed on the shelves, while some are still packed inside and have not been moved.
Every time Han Ye-jin comes, she asks people to open a box and take out items one by one. It feels like opening a treasure chest. "Let's open another treasure chest this time and see what good things we can get out of it?" Han Ye-jin said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll pick one." Hardy said excitedly.
I picked one of the boxes among many and pried it open with a crowbar. I found that it was full of books and scrolls. It seemed that this box contained calligraphy and paintings.
Han Ye-jin picked up a scroll, untied the rope and gently spread it out on the table, "This is Zhao Ziang's calligraphy."
Han Ye-jin said in surprise.
This Zhao Ziang was a descendant of Zhao Defang, and lived in the late Southern Song Dynasty or early Yuan Dynasty. He was extremely accomplished in calligraphy, and was known as one of the "Four Masters of Regular Script" along with Ouyang Xun, Yan Zhenqing, and Liu Gongquan.
His authentic works are extremely valuable.
The two admired it for a long time before reluctantly closing it. This time it was Hardy's turn. He also took out a scroll from the box. After opening it, he was a little dazed when he saw the picture on it. Han Ye-jin next to him blushed after reading it.
It turned out to be a picture of erotic sex.
However, the painter of this picture is a famous person, Tang Yin of the Ming Dynasty. In this painting, there is a man and a woman on the left who are vaguely enjoying themselves in a tent, and a girl outside the door is peeking at them and can't help but put her hand into her skirt.
Next to it is the famous "Young Girl Peeping at Spring".
"The romantic and talented Tang Bohu lives up to his name. His paintings are very lifelike. When you look at the expressions and gestures of the women in the paintings, they seem as if they are alive," Hardy commented.
"Here is also a poem, 'Tao Sheng is holding the jade in the east of the building, the red flowers dye her hair green in spring. ..., my younger sister sneaked a peek, deliberately embroidering in the screen, blinking his silver candle red.'"
Han Ye-jin gave Hardy a reproachful look and asked, "Who asked you to comment?"
