Chapter 76: Trip to the Imperial Capital (Part 2)



At the train station, Lu Zhenchuan went to buy train tickets, and Gu Ranzhou and Gu Yuan sat in the lobby waiting for Lu Zhenchuan to buy train tickets.

After buying the train tickets, Lu Zhenchuan came back to see Gu Yu'an and Gu Ranzhou sitting on chairs. He walked over and sat down and asked, "Wife An'an, let's wait. The train won't leave for half an hour."

Gu Ranzhou held Gu Yu'an in his arms and said with a smile, "Okay." The child was a sleepy child and had gotten up early in the morning. Now he was sleepy and curled up in Gu Ranzhou's arms with his eyes closed and fell asleep.

Lu Zhenchuan sat next to him and let his wife lean against him to take a nap.

After waiting for half an hour, the train whistle sounded and ticket checking began.

Lu Zhenchuan felt a little worried when he saw his son sleeping soundly, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions for fear of waking up Gu Yu'an in Gu Ranzhou's arms.

Gu Ranzhou heard the whistle and looked up at Lu Zhenchuan with a smile, "Well, it's time to go."

"Wife, let me do it?" Lu Zhenchuan took the sleeping Gu Yu'an from Gu Ranzhou's arms and picked her up, then stood up.

"good."

Lu Zhenchuan stood up, holding the child, and left with Gu Ranzhou, taking the ticket he had bought not long ago to the ticket inspector for inspection.

......

Lu Zhenchuan bought three tickets because his wife was going to Hong Kong Island, so he bought tickets for two different places. Although the three tickets were not for the same place, they happened to be sleeper tickets with bunk beds in the same carriage.

Perhaps because Lu Zhenchuan was carrying the child while walking, Gu Yu'an twisted his body a little and then continued to sleep.

Gu Ranzhou patted Gu Yu'an's back gently: "An'an, be good, it will be fine soon!"

Gu Yuan was half asleep, mumbling, "Dad, I'm sleepy."

Lu Zhenchuan heard this and quickly said, "Okay, then let's get on the train and stop arguing. It'll be quick."

Gu Ranzhou nodded.

The three of them got on the bus. Gu Ranzhou found Lu Zhenchuan, who was holding the child. They were seated at the seats where they had bought tickets. Gu Ranzhou tidied up the lower bed and ignored them as he didn't plan to sleep on the upper bed. He just left it empty. He would be getting off the bus soon anyway, and he had already paid for it.

Lu Zhenchuan put An An inside and let An An continue to sleep, then pulled up the curtain. Gu Ranzhou was afraid that the carriage was too noisy. After all, it was time to get on the train, and he didn't know if it would still be noisy later. He hurriedly took out a soundproofing sheet and stuck it on a hidden position on his bed, then took out a small blanket from the space and covered An An with it.

The train started moving and passengers boarded one after another.

The carriage was a little noisy, but that position of Gu Ranzhou and Lu Zhenchuan seemed exceptionally quiet. An An was sleeping soundly, with shallow breathing.

Lu Zhenchuan held Gu Ranzhou in his arms and tried to control his voice, chatting quietly: "Wife, we'll be there soon. You'll get off soon, right?"

Gu Ranzhou nodded: "Well, you have to take good care of An An and yourself when I'm not around."

"good!"

Gu Ranzhou instructed: "If you are on a mission and can't take care of An An, just let him stay with Haoyu. He won't get lost."

Lu Zhenchuan agreed in a somewhat gloomy voice: "Yes."

Gu Ranzhou kissed Lu Zhenchuan for a while until he was out of breath, then he slowly let go and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't be unhappy, I told you I will be back soon. Apart from leaving An An to you, only Haoyu and An An are the best with him."

Lu Zhenchuan sighed inwardly. His wife was already like this, and if he lost his temper again, he would be ungrateful. "Yeah, that's true."

After driving for over an hour, the train finally arrived at the platform. Before getting off, Gu Ranzhou urged Lu Zhenchuan, "Take care of yourselves, both of you."

Lu Zhenchuan and Gu Yu'an nodded: "I understand."

Gu Yu'an had woken up long ago and stood beside his own eldest father. He said to him as he left, "I know, Dad. Come back to us soon."

Gu Ranzhou still had to save face outside, so he gave the father and son a big hug and said, "Okay."

Gu Ranzhou separated from Lu Zhenchuan and Gu Yu'an. He simply carried an inconspicuous black backpack and turned to catch a ride to the airport, but the train had already left.

Gu Ranzhou took the nearest flight to Hong Kong Island.

Gu Ranzhou came to the city of Hong Kong for the first time in this era. When he was young in his previous life, he loved to play and fly around. After his old man passed away, he settled down here and could no longer move around freely. He stayed in the mountains of the country for a long time.

In the 1970s, Hong Kong Island was a vibrant mix of people, with people of all colors. There were Chinese, Chinese Americans, and people of mixed Chinese and British descent. Hong Kong's native population was less than 200,000, but the flow of people was enormous, with people of all colors, and Hong Kong was quite prosperous.

After getting off the plane, Gu Ranzhou took his funds to exchange. After the exchange was completed, he went to the hotel to book a room. Gu Ranzhou did not plan to stay there for long, and only booked a room for 10 days.

The next day, Gu Ranzhou took all his funds to the stock market. Gu Ranzhou stood in the stock hall and then walked in to handle all the necessary procedures. The most popular things in Hong Kong at that time were tickets and gambling.

Every pitcher here spends money lavishly, and everyone is calculating carefully. Some people become rich overnight, while others lose everything in a matter of a moment.

It's okay if you can stick to the bottom line, but if you are blinded by greed and can't stick to the bottom line, you can only blame yourself and not others.

Once you start gambling, it's not easy to stop. After all, greed is in everyone's heart. If you win 100 yuan, you want to win 1,000 yuan. If you win 1,000 yuan, you want to win 10,000 yuan, 1 million, or even 10 million yuan. How can it be so easy? It's not like pie in the sky, unless you are truly capable.

In just ten days, Gu Ranzhou made great strides in the stock and financial markets, creating a height never reached before. It can be said that he became a god overnight.

Fifteen billion was earned in just ten days. Even during these ten days, he spent less than three days in the financial market. Gu Ranzhou rarely showed up in public, and most of the time he was seen wearing a black mask and a windbreaker.

What does 1.5 billion mean? This 1.5 billion is not RMB but M-coin.

No one knew where he came from. The only thing we knew was that he came here from the inland and would be leaving soon. That was why he stopped when he earned 1.5 billion M coins.

Many tycoons in Hong Kong Island saw his abilities and wanted to pay a large sum of money to invite him to stay and work for them. Some of them used soft tactics, such as women, money, and status.

There are also those who use hard methods, such as kidnapping, threats, poisoning and so on.

It's a pity that Gu Ranzhou's heart is not here. He had promised his husband and son that he would go back in half a month at the earliest and one month at the latest. Now it's almost half a month since the time agreed with them. He doesn't want to break the appointment. Besides, he is not interested in working for others. He can obviously be his own boss, so why should he suffer under someone else's hands?
