It’s okay to borrow money, but not too much. I have a group of people to support.
We're all acquaintances. You can write me an IOU and pay me back when you make money, or I can take the IOU to your house and ask Mr. Lou for it when I get home."
At this time, the eldest brother of the Lou family finally spoke: "Thank you, Brother Jia, for your kindness. This time, it is all thanks to you. Otherwise, the two of us brothers would be finished.
We have discussed it over the past two days and decided to find a job first and do it until we are familiar with the situation here.
I'll go back and ask my dad for some money, bring more people with me, and I won't dare to come here in a reckless and aggressive manner like this time.
Can you lend me a thousand yuan first? I'll pay you back when we find a place and settle down and make money. I'll write you an IOU and pay the interest as usual. Just don't go back and tell my dad.
Otherwise, my brother and I would be doomed."
Jia Youcai coughed repeatedly: "Yeah, the wind is so strong in the south, I'm a little uncomfortable with it.
There's no problem borrowing money, and you don't have to tell Mr. Lou.
But, what is your status in Beijing?
Even if you come here without money, there is no reason to beat people up. If this gets back, how will you two ever go back to Beijing to see people in the future?
This is so embarrassing. We can't do this. How about I give you an idea?
Let's start a business together. I'll provide the capital and you'll do the hard work. The people behind me are no match for me. They can't do it and they don't speak English. Do you two speak English?"
The Lou brothers quickly replied, "Yes, we can speak not only English but also Japanese."
Jia Youcai's eyes lit up. What a talented person!
Jia Youcai quickly called for everyone to go together, first take a boat across the sea, and after getting off the boat, he took people to Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon, and headed to the Peninsula Hotel.
Three rooms were booked, Jia Youcai and his twins lived in one, and the others were given two rooms to stay in first.
After dinner in the evening, Jia Youcai led everyone into his room, asked Jinzhaner and Yinzhaner to make tea, and then went back to his room.
Jia Youcai asked everyone to sit down, and then he said to his two brothers, "I plan to set up a real estate company first.
We have been specializing in buying and selling houses in the past few months, and we all came from the old city.
Everyone knows the situation in the country. The north has basically been liberated.
It hasn't happened in the south yet, but it should be soon. As long as the Red Army attacks, those rich people, landlords, capitalists, and foreigners in the leasehold will all run away.
Where can I go? I can only go to Haojiang first, or here. If I want to go abroad, I have to transfer here.
There are only a few hundred thousand people here now, but there are countless houses. Once those fat sheep rush in, the housing prices will immediately rise.
As long as we stock up a batch of houses in advance, the value of the houses will increase several times within half a year.
I looked at the newspapers outside, and the average price is about HK$20-50 per square foot, depending on the location.
Here, the entire building is sold together, so even for those who live there, it might be difficult to come up with so much cash at once.
We can sell it in layers or in rooms.
You two brothers were responsible for buying those houses from foreigners who were afraid that the Red Army would attack and were ready to run away, so you pushed the prices down.
Other than Cai Quanwu and Dr. 㠬, I have some other arrangements.
Just buy ordinary houses, even tenement buildings will do.
I'll provide the capital, and if we close a deal, I'll give you a bonus. Within six months, you can all become small-time millionaires."
