Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

"Ah Chen..." Mother Xue got up and looked at Yang Chen, her eyes were full of love.

Hearing Mother Xue's call, Yang Chen quickly let go of Xue Yufei who had thrown herself into his arms, stepped forward to hold Mother Xue's hand, and said in a low voice: "Auntie".

After leaving for more than half a year, to be honest, the person Yang Chen felt the most sorry for was Mother Xue who cared for him since childhood.

If Xue's father treated him like a strict father, then Xue's mother is the woman who has been playing the role of a loving mother behind her back.

Chapter 48

Xue's mother's name is Xue Lihua, and she has the same surname as Xue's father. The marriage between the two is a feudal product left by the order of the parents and the words of the matchmaker.

As a woman from which era, Xue's mother's life can be summed up in four words, that is, "beautiful husband and son".

Although Xue's mother couldn't help Xue's father in business, she was able to take care of the family properly, so that Xue's father could concentrate on his career without worrying about other things.

After living in Xue's family for nearly ten years, Yang Chen's predecessor has already integrated into this family because of Xue's mother and became a member of it.

Mother Xue stretched out her hands to hold Yang Chen's face, touched Yang Chen's thin face and said, "If you're thin, I'd say it's good that girl Yu Fei can take care of herself, how can she take care of you."

Because of his height, Yang Chen had no choice but to half-squat in order to make it easier for Xue's mother to touch his face, and let Xue's mother observe whether he had lost weight or gained weight, without any impatience.

Hearing what her mother said, Xue Yufei curled her lips, rolled her eyes and said, "Mom, you can continue to be biased."

If Mother Xue doesn't know if it's because she only has Xue Yufei as a daughter, or she really likes Yang Chen, anyway, ever since the day Yang Chen came to Xue's house, Mother Xue has always raised Yang Chen as her own son.

As for partiality, it can only be said that motherhood is inherently more important to boys, while fathers are more partial to daughters.

After a while, Mother Xue let go of Yang Chen, and said: "Ah Chen, let's stay and have dinner together today, Auntie will personally make dumplings for you later."

Seeing Mother Xue's eyes full of anticipation, Yang Chen didn't hesitate, nodded and said: "Okay, I haven't eaten the dumplings made by your aunt for a long time."

Seeing that Yang Chen agreed, Mother Xue couldn't help laughing, then turned her head to look at Father Xue who had been silent all this time, patted Yang Chen's hand and said, "Alright then, Auntie is going to prepare now, now you two have a good chat chat."

"Yufei, come here and help mom." After finishing speaking, Mother Xue winked at Xue Yufei who was tired of being beside Yang Chen.

Seeing this, Xue Yufei blinked at Yang Chen, and then left with her mother.

"Uncle" waited for Xue's mother and Xue Yufei to leave one after another, Yang Chen walked up to Xue's father and shouted, and then he didn't know how to speak.

Father Xue put down the newspaper he hadn't turned over for a long time, and took off his reading glasses: "I'm back, let's sit down and talk."

Hearing this, Yang Chen sat in the seat where Xue Yufei and Xue's mother sat just now, picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, and then waited quietly for Xue's father to speak.

While cleaning the teacup, Father Xue asked Yang Chen, "I heard from Yu Fei that you went abroad a few days ago, are you okay?"

"It's nothing." Yang Chen shook his head and said.

"It's good that you're fine. You've been out for more than half a year, and you don't know how to come back to see your aunt."

Father Xue's tone seemed to be blaming or helpless, which made Yang Chen not know how to respond, so he had to keep his mouth shut and not speak in embarrassment.

Fortunately, Father Xue didn't delve into this matter. He changed his tone and asked, "I heard that your kid went to Haojiang not long ago?"

"I went for a trip." Yang Chen replied with a guilty conscience. He looked like a good baby who did something wrong and didn't dare to face his parents directly. Uncle Fu on the side couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

Seeing Yang Chen's admission, Father Xue's face obviously improved a lot, but he still couldn't help but warn: "Which kind of place, it's better to go less or less in the future, you are still young, don't indulge in those things."

Yang Chen didn't say much, but he seriously assured: "Uncle, don't worry, there won't be a next time."

"Press, that's good." Father Xue nodded, put the washed teacup in front of Yang Chen, and then gave him a cup of tea.

Seeing this, Yang Chen habitually took the teacup in his hand, put it to his mouth and sipped it, then hesitantly asked Father Xue: "Uncle, I heard that the garment factory is in trouble?"

Seeing Yang Chen asking about this, Father Xue put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at Yang Chen, then paused and said: "It's a little trouble, but it's not a big deal, you don't have to worry."

Seeing that Yang Chen seemed interested in understanding, Father Xue couldn't help explaining: "In recent years, Xiangjiang's garment industry has developed rapidly, and its annual export volume has reached tens of billions of Hong Kong dollars, and it has become a pillar industry of Xiangjiang.

Such a big piece of fat is not only greedy for the Jardine Group, but also for other large groups and companies.

Xue's Manufacturing is one of the few large factories in Hong Kong with thousands of workers. Over the years, the Jardine Group has always wanted to further enter the garment industry, and Xue's Manufacturing is just one of their breakthroughs.

It's just that they think of other people too simply, especially the Jardine Group, which has been expanding in recent years, and its domineering behavior has already aroused the anger of the sky and the people.

Once the wolf of the Jardine Group is allowed to break in, with its domineering character, I don't know how many people will suffer because of it. "

With that said, Father Xue picked up the teacup again, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Jardine Group thought that it would cut off the raw materials of Xue's manufacturing industry with its own influence. It simply cannot tolerate it being inserted.

Just look at how the people who came to the Jardine Group left in despair after hitting their heads full of bags. "

"Uh..." Hearing this, Yang Chen was a little stunned.

Originally, he thought that Father Xue would suffer from this, but he didn't want the other party to be completely different from what he thought. Not only was he not in a hurry, but he was also in the mood to see the Jardine Group suffer.

But then again, based on Yang Chen's understanding of those big family consortiums in Xiangjiang in his previous life, it seems that the businessmen in Xiangjiang have always been like this.

Every time, the young ones were beaten to come to the old ones, the old ones were beaten to come to relatives, and the relatives were beaten, and a lot of relatives of all kinds came again.

Relatives within relatives, almost half of the entire Xiangjiang family united together in this way.

It can be said that once outside companies compete with those family businesses in Xiangjiang, they will not compete with one or two companies, but with a large number of relatives and friends behind them.

Once this fight calls friends, the result will be obvious.

As for the consortium forces like Xiangjiang, it was at this time that Chinese capital resisted British capital gradually formed.

Seeing that Yang Chen didn't ask any more questions, Father Xue couldn't help but sighed and said: "It's about that time, the current plight of Xue's manufacturing industry is not outside, but inside.

In recent years, with the continuous development of Hong Kong's economy, people have gradually become richer, and many young people have begun to pursue novelty and trends in clothes.

Those things don’t know if I’m old, I can’t keep up with the times or what, the sales of Xue’s manufacturing industry have been declining in recent years, and I don’t know how long it can last. "

Chapter 49

"Uncle" heard that, Yang Chen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn't know how to speak.

Seeing him like this, Father Xue waved his hands and said, "Originally, I wanted to leave the company to you and Yu Fei, but I didn't expect that your kid is now promising, and even the Governor-General called me to ask me about you.

To be honest, I was really not optimistic about your pursuit of your ideals at the beginning, but now it seems that uncle is really old, and the fact proves that your choice is right. "

"Uncle me"

Seeing what Xiangchen wanted to say, Father Xue raised his hand to stop him and said, "Listen to me."

Father Xue said with a desolate look on his face, "No matter what you say about this Xue's manufacturing industry, I am going to leave it to you and Yu Fei. Instead of continuing like this, sooner or later we will face loss and close down.

Why don't you take this opportunity to sell it, so that you and Yu Fei can save some savings, and it can also make me relax, so I don't have to keep busy with the company all day long, and I don't have time to spend with your aunt..."

Hearing Father Xue say such words, and seeing the old man's lonely expression, Yang Chen knew what Father Xue was really thinking in his heart, it was definitely not as easy as he said.
