After discussing the launch of Fragrant Duck, Mo Zhexuan kept Vice President Li Xinlei.
"Mr. Mo! We have consulted the employees of Xie Liyuan Gold Shop and the gold processing factory. Most of them have no objection to changing the boss, as long as their salary is not reduced. A small number of people want to continue to work with you..."
Li Xinlei's main job during this period was to be responsible for the sale of Xie Liyuan Gold Shop and the gold processing factory. Although he was reluctant, he had no choice but to obey the overall situation.
"Those who want to follow me will be assigned to various subsidiaries of the Xiangjiang Group, and the security personnel will all be placed in the group's security department."
Mo Zhexuan pondered for a moment and then told his plan. He was not an emotionless person.
"Mr. Mo! I've already announced the sale of Xie Liyuan Gold Shop to the public, and the response has been enthusiastic. Many citizens who opened gold accounts at Xie Liyuan Gold Shop have come to exchange them for physical gold. We've satisfied all of them, but our gold reserves are almost sold out..."
Li Xinlei nodded, and then talked about another thing.
"So how many buyers are interested in gold shops in Hong Kong right now?"
Mo Zhexuan calmly took a sip of tea, feeling a little relieved that the gold mortgaged to Hang Seng Bank was redeemed in time. If it had not been exchanged to the citizens in time, he would probably have to go through another big storm.
"Mainly the four major gold merchants in Hong Kong and some medium-sized gold and jewelry companies? However, the general manager of Chow Tai Fook personally found me and wanted to offer 100 million Hong Kong dollars for the acquisition. What do you think?" Li Xinlei continued to report.
"You should talk to these buyers first and determine their target price. Then, select the two with the highest price. I will talk to them in person."
Mo Zhexuan pondered for a while and expressed his thoughts. Zheng Yutong had already made his intention of acquiring Xie Liyuan's gold shop clear last time, but who wouldn't want to sell it at a higher price?
“Bang, bang!”
Just as the two were about to continue their discussion, there was a knock on the office door.
"Come in!"
As soon as the words fell, a tall woman in a gray business suit and high heels quickly pushed the door open and said with a smile:
"Mr. Mo! I just received a notification from the front desk downstairs that Mr. Huo Zhenting of the Huo family wants to see you and is waiting downstairs. What do you think?"
"Secretary Wen! Go and invite him up in person."
After the secretary left, he let Li Xinlei leave and went outside the office door to wait for Huo Zhenting's arrival. Although he didn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, he still had to follow the proper etiquette.
After a while, Huo Zhenting, wearing a black suit and black-framed glasses, came over with his secretary. He hurriedly greeted them, extended his right hand, and said enthusiastically with a smile:
"Brother Huo! Welcome to Xiangjiang Group."
"Xiaoxuan! You are too polite."
Huo Zhenting quickly stretched out his right hand and shook it, and a smile instantly appeared on his face.
There was a rumor in Hong Kong that Mo Zhexuan was only twenty years old. Now that I met him, I realized that it was true.
I couldn't help but be secretly surprised, knowing that at this age he was still studying in the British Empire.
The other party is already worth billions, almost surpassing the Huo family's decades of development.
It is true that talented people emerge in every generation, and each wave is stronger than the last.
After entering the office, the two sat on the sofa and chatted, and the secretary hurried to make tea.
The secretary's name is Wen Jing. She graduated from the Chinese Department of Hong Kong University. She was admitted not only because she has strong professional skills and high emotional intelligence, but more importantly, she has an experienced tea-making technique.
"Mr. Mo! Mr. Huo! The tea is ready."
Wen Jing brought over the freshly brewed teapot and walked over with a smile.
She quickly took a guest cup from the coffee table, poured two-thirds of the tea into it, and handed it to Huo Zhenting with both hands.
Then he picked up the teapot and poured fresh tea into Mo Zhexuan's empty cup.
"Brother Huo! How about trying my secretary's cooking skills?" Mo Zhexuan picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile.
Huo Zhenting smiled and nodded, picked up the teacup and put it to his nose to smell it. A refreshing and unique fragrance immediately hit his nose. He took a sip and praised:
"Great tea! The color, aroma and flavor of Pu'er tea are all brought out. The fragrance lingers on the tongue and the aftertaste is endless!"
"Xiaoxuan! You found a good secretary!"
Mo Zhexuan also had a smile on his face when he heard this. Doesn’t this mean that he has good vision?
The two chatted about all sorts of things, and gradually got down to business, and understood each other's intentions.
"Xiaoxuan! I came here today to invite you to dinner at my house on Sunday night."
As Huo Zhenting spoke, he took out an exquisite invitation from his purse and handed it over.
"Brother Huo! Why are you being so formal? Can't you just call and notify them directly?" Mo Zhexuan thought for a long time and didn't expect that he was actually invited to a dinner party.
"Alas...! You are an honored guest, how can I not personally invite you? You must be punctual for the banquet. Your Uncle Huo has given me many instructions. If you don't come, I will be punished according to the family rules."
Huo Zhenting said jokingly.
"Don't worry! I will definitely attend the banquet on time." Mo Zhexuan said solemnly, but in his heart he was wondering why Huo Yingdong invited him?
"Okay! Then I won't stay any longer. I still have to deliver invitations to other people." Huo Zhenting nodded and said goodbye.
Mo Zhexuan originally wanted to see the other party off in person, but was rejected, so he had to let his secretary take him downstairs.
When I see Peter Ho, I think of his grand wedding with Miss Hong Kong Zhu Lingling in 1978. I’m afraid no one would have thought that they would get divorced in the future!
Of course, the most famous one is the other party’s eldest son, Huo Qigang, who married the famous diving queen and was famous all over the world at that time.
Recalling the sensational property dispute within the Huo family in later generations, I wonder if the once wise Huo Yingdong would be so angry that he would jump out of his grave. It was truly a disgrace to the whole world.
At that time, it was revealed that Huo Yingdong had three wives and thirteen children. Fortunately, Huo Jianhua, the first Chinese Chief Executive of Hong Kong, actively persuaded Huo Zhenting, Huo Zhenhuan and Huo Zhenyu to reach a settlement agreement.
Otherwise, if it really comes to the point of going to court, it would be a laughing stock to the outside world. This also serves as a reminder to him that if he has more children in the future, he must prevent disputes over family property.
This is an unsolvable problem in Hong Kong and even in the world. When a father with supreme authority creates an extraordinary family business, it is always inevitable that it will fall apart due to the open and covert struggles of future generations.
