Chapter 88 Going to Hong Kong (fourth update) That night, they climbed onto the cargo...
Going to Hong Kong?
This is something I dare not even think about. It is a completely different world, with neither family nor career.
A strange new world with no roots, where even the language is different.
Most people really can't make such a decision, not to mention that most of the promising and capable descendants of the Yao family are from the Yao Jingzong branch.
As for those idiots in Yaowangzhuang, don’t even mention them. I’m afraid they’ll be killed within a month if they run over there.
In other words, if you really want to make a difference, the candidate can only be chosen from Yao Weiguo, Yao Miaomiao, Yao Weihua and Yao Zhizhi.
There is no doubt that the other three have already started families and careers, and those with families cannot let go and venture out.
Then the only one left is the unmarried Yao Weihua.
But how could he bear to do that?
His younger sister had been wandering outside for eighteen years, and had suffered countless grievances and hardships. Now that her life had finally improved, he would definitely not abandon his younger sister and go to Hong Kong.
I can only focus my attention on Lu Henian.
I just don’t know if Lu Henian has any idea of leaving behind any descendants.
Based on what Yao Weihua has learned recently, there shouldn't be any.
Moreover, Luk Hok-nian has a physique that attracts gangsters, and he might be very popular in Hong Kong.
Furthermore, Luk Hok-nian was well versed in the art of Taoism, and when he arrived in Hong Kong, he could put his skills to good use.
His earnest gaze was too direct.
Lu Henian is not a fool and he understands everything.
He had no ties and no bad thoughts about having to leave anything behind, so he could take a gamble and go to Hong Kong to make a living.
If there are new opportunities in the country in the future, we will be able to cooperate and achieve win-win results as soon as possible.
Besides, didn't Yao Weihua say that he would consider his personal problems after Xiaoyue was weaned? Maybe he could go to Hong Kong to help him then.
Anyway, both families have common debtors.
But just like that...
He would have to leave everything in the country, even though he never owned anything.
A dilapidated courtyard, a grassroots job, and being alone, this is all he has.
It seems like there is nothing to lose.
Forget it, just go.
With his eyelids drooping, Lu Henian stared at his hands. He knew that as long as he said he wanted to go, no one would try to stop him.
But deep down in his heart, he still had a glimmer of hope. What if?
Even if it's just a sigh of reluctance from a cousin.
After considering for a long time, he finally raised his head. Everyone was looking at him, with some anticipation, some shock, but no reluctance.
There is no such thing as an emergency.
After scanning the area, he looked at Huang Yang calmly: "I'll go."
Huang Yang was reluctant. To be honest, a lone man like this had no ties, which meant that this man was not easy to control.
What if he becomes powerful enough to confront the Huang family in the future...
However... this kind of lone hero also has an advantage, which is that it allows Lu Henian to marry the daughter of the Huang family.
As long as you are not a son-in-law, it is not easy for you to be like Hu Biheng, who took away the pot while eating.
It just so happened that he had a younger sister who was not married yet.
However, Huang Yang was still a little hesitant and did not speak for the time being.
Because he is more optimistic about the potential of this branch of the Yao family, he still hopes that Yao Weihua will make a serious statement.
Yao Weihua smiled and patted Lu Henian's shoulder: "Then I'll leave it to you, cousin. My sister needs someone here, and I'm always worried about other people."
Lu Henian held his hand and hid his disappointment well.
He asked Huang Yang: "Can you tell me about your family's specific situation?"
Huang Yang nodded. "In short, I'm the eldest grandson of this branch of the Great Grandfather. I'm thirty-two this year. I have a younger brother named Huang Hao, who recently offended Hu Yan, the grandson of Hu Biheng. In retaliation, Hu Biheng teamed up with British capital to manipulate stock prices, causing our Huang family to suffer heavy losses. He also blew up one of our warehouses, injuring my brother. So I have to remind you, Lu Henian, I can only guarantee that the Huang family will protect you, but I can't guarantee that you will be safe. You must consider this carefully."
Luk Hok-nian was very frank: "I don't know much about stock prices, but I do know a little about gunpowder. I'm fine with going, but please make sure you prepare a few capable people to teach me how to manipulate stock prices and help me understand the situation in Hong Kong as quickly as possible."
"This is what I should do. I'm not afraid that you won't learn, I'm just afraid that you don't have the courage." Huang Yang glanced at the scar on his face and suddenly felt that the second half of the sentence was a bit redundant, but words spoken could not be taken back, so forget it.
Lu Henian pondered for a long time: "It would be a bit lonely for me to go alone. Can I invite two more people?"
"Who?" Huang Yang frowned. Don't bring any bad friends with you, otherwise it will be difficult to deal with if they get into trouble later.
Lu Henian wasn't sure if the other party was willing, so he asked, "Are you in a hurry to leave?"
"No rush." Huang Yang spent a lot of effort to come here and wanted to stay for a few more days.
If Lu Henian is found to be unsuitable during this period, there is still an opportunity to change the strategy.
Lu Henian made an appointment with him and decided to meet at the guesthouse instead of coming here.
However, Huang Yang still wanted to fight for it: "Yao Weihua, maybe you can reconsider it. If you go, you can get more benefits for your sister. Isn't that good? Accumulating family property is also a way to love your sister. You can hire someone to help her take care of the children."
After all, Yao Weihua's father is a military officer. He has heard that the mainland's policies are about to be relaxed. When that time comes, Yao Weihua's background will be more advantageous.
Unfortunately, Yao Weihua is a stubborn person. He said that he would wait until Xiaoyue was weaned, so he would definitely keep his promise.
He gave a deadline: "You can ask me again next year, and I will definitely consider it carefully then."
Huang Yang was helpless, okay, let Lu Henian be the advance team member.
He stood up and said goodbye, asking Lu Henian to take him to the guesthouse. He brought a lot of fake letters of introduction, each with a different name, and he used one and threw it away one by one.
Lu Henian arrived at the guesthouse and lied that the man was his mute cousin who came to visit relatives and would stay for three days.
After checking in, he took the initiative to buy some daily necessities for Huang Yang.
Huang Yang was not optimistic about him at first, but when the house was filled with several piles of daily necessities, he had to admit that this little Lu was quite attentive.
After saying thank you, he leaned against the head of the bed and closed his eyes to rest.
Lu Henian thought about it for a while, and before leaving, he asked, "If my friend and I go there, will you cover the initial food and expenses?"
Huang Yang crossed his legs and said, "Of course, since this is a cooperative relationship, we must show sincerity. Don't worry, although our Huang family has suffered losses, we can still come up with this little money. As long as you have real ability and don't let us work in vain, it will be fine."
Lu Henian was still worried and suggested, "When you have time, please draft a cooperation agreement. I don't want to leave it unsupported and let you take advantage of me."
Huang Yang suddenly opened his eyes and put down his crossed legs.
He suddenly became interested in this Lu guy. He squinted his eyes and looked at him for a long time before smiling, "Not bad. You can even think of this. You have some skills."
"Don't say these useless things, just tell me, is it okay?" Lu Henian was not interested in these compliments. Since he was going, he had to consider all the possibilities and try his best to ensure his personal safety and future financial disputes.
Huang Yang smiled and leaned back. "Of course. Since you like to discuss cooperation in black and white, that would be great. I hope you can uphold the spirit of the contract and not let me down."
"Then wait a minute, I'll go buy you some paper and pen." Lu Henian hurried away and hurried back.
He didn't rush Huang Yang, letting him think it over carefully. "The food is all here. Just make do with it for the next few days and try not to draw attention to yourself. Especially your windbreaker. Take it off quickly. I'll bring you two sets of my clothes later."
Anyway, they are about the same size.
Huang Yang became more and more interested in this man. He stroked his beard and said with a smile, "You are much more interesting than I thought. Go ahead. I'm here and I won't run away."
After dark, Lu Henian sent over two sets of clothes and a bowl of fried rice.
While Huang Yang was eating, he picked up the cooperation agreement and read it word by word to see if there were any traps or loopholes.
Finally, a few clauses were deleted and added, and Huang Yang was asked to consider them carefully. After considering them, he should come back tomorrow to re-copy and sign them.
*
Late at night, Yao Weihua came to the slum to find Lu Henian.
I gave him some money and a folding dagger for self-defense, made of alloy steel, which is not easy to get in China at the moment.
As soon as Lu Henian got the dagger, he felt that it was unusual and asked, "Where did you get it from?"
"My brother-in-law prepared it for you." Yao Weihua didn't ask whether it was bought from his sister's system store or from his brother-in-law. It made no difference.
The disappointment in Lu Henian's heart suddenly disappeared.
There are also people who think of giving him money and are concerned about his safety. Even if they don't show their reluctance, it is enough to comfort his lonely heart.
He smiled and accepted the things: "Don't you want to ask me who you want to take with you?"
"That old Taoist priest with a big nose from last time? And Qin Yichen?" Yao Weihua came to chat with him at night every few days, and every time after Xiao Xingxing fell asleep.
They have common interests and hobbies, and both are single, so they get along very well.
Therefore, he could guess most of what Lu Henian was thinking.
Lu Henian didn't show any surprise, but just asked, "What do you think of this combination?"
Yao Weihua nodded. "That's great. Qin Yicheng is one of us. If he's willing to go with you, I'll feel more at ease. The old Taoist priest with the ox nose can help you predict good and bad luck, which will be even more powerful. If you bring them all, I think it will work."
Lu Henian was very relieved. At least he still had a confidant. "That's right. Just like Investiture of the Gods couldn't be without Jiang Ziya and Yao Tianjun, Romance of the Three Kingdoms couldn't be without Zhuge Liang's clever use of the east wind."
"You want to go and talk to him yourself? Do you need my help?" Yao Weihua still had time, as Xiao Xingxing had already fallen asleep.
Lu Henian shook his head: "No, I'll go by myself, you go back."
"Then... can you use a gun?" Yao Weihua hesitated for a long time, but still wanted to ask. He knew that his younger sister had snatched Huang Yang's gun.
Lu Henian shook his head: "No, but I can learn."
"There is no chance in the mainland. You should go to Hong Kong to learn." Yao Weihua sighed silently. It's a pity that you can't use it.
Otherwise it would be safer to carry a gun.
After Yao Weihua left, Lu Henian repeatedly stroked the dagger. The cold blade was placed against the fingertips of his left hand. With a slight pressure, bright red blood oozed out.
It's a good knife, a sharp knife.
Thank you, Qi Changxiao.
That night, he cast a fortune and hurried to the mountains, where he found Qin Yichen squatting on the ground sulking, puffing out smoke, and it was obvious that he had been bullied.
Lu Henian squatted beside him and lit a cigarette: "What's wrong?"
Qin Yicheng was furious. "The old man over there thinks I'm meddling in his business, so he won't let me touch the subsequent joint construction. It's so annoying. These old men are always so self-centered and think they have the truth. The young people don't bring any skills, but rather a challenge to their authority. Damn it, I just want to complete my work properly. Who did I offend?"
Lu Henian patted his shoulder and said, "Come with me to Hong Kong. I heard that there's a big real estate development going on there. Talent like you will be in high demand. Do you want to go?"
"Are you okay?" Qin Yichen had received the righteous education from Old Qin since he was a child. Capitalism was a monster.
Lu Henian raised his eyebrows and said, "I'm serious. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see. Within three months, you will definitely be punished."
"I don't believe it. Don't try to tempt me. If you want to go, go by yourself." Qin Yichen was not convinced. He made a living by his own ability and he held his back straight wherever he went.
Lu Henian was helpless: "Don't believe it? Fine, then remember this, from August to October this year, I will send someone to wait for you at the dock every day. If you go, just say my name when you get ashore."
"Are you crazy?" Qin Yichen was convinced. Is this kid having a seizure? What is he thinking about?
He's talking nonsense and is like an idiot.
Lu Henian stood up and crushed his cigarette butt with a smile: "Don't believe me? We'll know within three months."
Qin Yicheng pushed him away impatiently: "Stop playing tricks on me and go away!"
Lu Henian did not stay and went to find the old Taoist priest who had taken away the evil ghost years ago.
The old Taoist priest's surname was Sun. He pointed at the hexagram in front of him and said mysteriously: "If I had known that guests were coming, I would have had good tea waiting for you. Please come in."
Lu Henian smiled. They hadn't slept all night and had a very pleasant conversation.
The next morning, I made breakfast and sent it to the guesthouse. When I arrived, I found that Huang Yang had gone out.
This kid is probably just wandering around aimlessly. He should at least understand the situation in the mainland, otherwise his trip would be in vain.
He was not in a hurry and just waited in the room.
Huang Yang came back around nine o'clock, closed the door, and couldn't help muttering, "Stingy guy! Asking him to sell me two antiques is like asking for his life!"
Lu Henian was confused: "Do you have friends here?"
Huang Yang said angrily, "That's not the case. My dad came here in the 1950s and 1960s and met a collector. He asked me to see if he had any good stuff. This Grandet is really stingy. It's not like he doesn't give him money!"
Lu Henian had a bold guess in his mind and asked, "Are you talking about... Ning Zhengrong?"
"Yes." Huang Yang sat down and drank the red date porridge brought by Lu Henian in one breath. He spat the date pits into the trash can with a bad temper.
Lu Henian smiled: "Don't you know, he is now Yao Zhizhi's father-in-law."
"I don't know. It's not mentioned in the intelligence." Huang Yang was shocked. No way, is this such a coincidence?
Lu Henian spread his hands: "Now you know."
Huang Yang was filled with envy: "...Ms. Yao is so lucky. Her husband is the only child in the family, right?"
"That's right." Lu Henian smiled. Huang Yang was quite easy to understand. He had just exposed his weakness.
Still want to control him, so naive.
That night, the two men met the old Taoist priest on the outskirts of the city, climbed onto the truck that was picking up Huang Yang, and headed south.
The next day at noon, Cai Bao came to Lu Henian with a crucian carp, but found that the house was empty.
Silently throw the fish to the passing wild cat.
When he turned around, Xiao Zhao, who had fought with him for the fish last time, had appeared behind him. He smiled and patted his shoulder: "What's wrong? Was your good brother abandon you?"
