The Portable Farm in the Siheyuan

Chapter 159 Hongxing Dragon Head

The mansion on Peak Road, Mo Bin, is a HK$15 billion mansion that will be sold to mainland wealthy people in the future. Do you know how much it sells for now? 15 Hong Kong dollars! Appreciated ten thousand times!

The mansion in Deep Water Bay not only has a large building area, but is also close to the seaside. The area is also very exaggerated. It has a small hill attached and is priced at HK$68.

This is not the author's nonsense, but it is well-documented. The house sold by the Yuan family in later generations was purchased by Billi Stone Official for HK$59 in 15 and sold to PCCW for HK$ million in the millennium. Yuan Tianfan.

This luxury house is located at 22 Barker Road on the Peak. It is a three-storey independent house with a total area of ​​approximately 1099 square meters and a panoramic sea view of Victoria Harbour. In addition, there is a large garden of more than 2500 square meters. There is a small forest and a large grassland in the courtyard. Judging from the exposed pictures, the full sea view of Victoria Harbor seen from the mansion on the top of the mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, is indeed beautiful.

For the prices of luxury villas in Deep Water Bay, you can refer to Li Huanggua. This guy spent HKD 63 to buy the No. 65 mansion in 79. It is a super luxury house next to a golf course with a future valuation of HKD 58 billion.

Mo Bin is now four years ahead of schedule, and it was four years ago when housing prices in Xiangjiang skyrocketed. The house is much worse. What he needs is a location near the sea. The cliff at the front of the yard can be slightly modified so that the yacht can be berthed. It's at the doorstep of the house, so he can come and go freely.

There is another reason, that is, his area is nearly twice that of Li Huagua. It is the land for two super luxury houses. Mo Bin arranged to demolish and rebuild the building. He is too lazy to live in the current building.

The three cars did not go back to the top of the mountain road directly, but took Mo Bin to the warehouse area of ​​​​the port to see the large warehouse rented for him, which stored grain and meat transported from North America and Australia, and the first batch of rice from the United States. The shipment is coming soon.

Not to mention the warehouse, the newly built large warehouse is large enough. Standard Chartered Bank was very thoughtful and called the bosses of the dock gang. They were responsible for loading and unloading, and were also responsible for the security of the warehouse.

Mo Bin saw a tall man, probably in his forties, with a very strong build. He was wearing a relatively smart undershirt. Although it was relatively clean, it was still a worker's clothes.

"Your Excellency the Viscount, this is the biggest force near the dock, the founder of the Hongxing Gang, Jiang Zhen. Mr. Jiang, this is the super rich man and British nobleman, His Excellency the Viscount Sean Douglas." Smith Green introduced both parties.

"Hello, Your Majesty the Viscount, if you have any instructions, just tell me directly." Jiang Zhen said humbly. The president of Standard Chartered Bank was the only big person he knew. What's more, this Lord Viscount, seeing Smith look like Mo Bin was served like a servant. He was not a fool, so he wouldn't dare to bare his teeth.

Mo Bin was excited, "Comrade Jiang Zhen, the founder of Hongxing, I am very familiar with your two sons!" Jiang Tiansheng and Jiang Tianyang are both good among men. Although they are not good at fighting and their management skills are average, they are indeed good among the big men in the world.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang, are you from the mainland too? Where are you from?" Mo Bin responded with a smile and asked.

"Yes sir, I came here before liberation. My hometown is Lu Feng." Jiang Zhen didn't know what this foreigner who spoke fluent Cantonese meant, so he answered honestly.

"Lu Feng's? Fu Lao talk? It's really a coincidence. Lu Feng and I have a close relationship. We are half Lu Feng people, and we are half fellow countrymen. If you have any trouble in the future, you can come to me for help. I will stay here temporarily. No. 22 Barker Road, Peak. That's my butler Alan Parker. He can also speak Cantonese. You can ask Smith to tell me." Mo Bin directly switched the language to Hoklo dialect.

Many people are not clear about it and think that Hai Lufeng also belongs to the Daochao-Shantou language family. In fact, this is just for laymen. They are different. They are similar but not the same. Hoklo is closer to the Hokkien language family.

According to historical research, these languages ​​were the official languages ​​during the Tang and Song Dynasties. At that time, most people spoke this language, also known as Heluo Mandarin. The accents of the Hokkien people who migrated in the early Tang Dynasty still maintained the Central Plains dialect, Chaoshan dialect and Hoklo dialect is actually an extension of the Hokkien language family.

Jiang Zhen was shocked and opened his mouth wide. Aren't you a foreign devil? The English aristocrat's fluent "Hoklo dialect" made his jaw drop.

However, he quickly realized that he had to accept the olive branch handed over by His Excellency the Viscount even while kneeling!

This is not intended to belittle, but is the actual situation. This is the era when the Eagle Country Man was powerful. Not to mention the underworld where he was born as a dock coolie, the Chinese rich are looked down upon by them. They are targeted and excluded everywhere. Who is he?

Not to mention him, even in the era when his two sons were powerful, they would not dare to provoke the Eagle Country, let alone the British nobles. If they saw a Japanese devil, the so-called Justice of the Peace would crush them to death.

Some people may have said, if this is the case, why don't rich people buy a noble status?

This is a matter of knowledge. How do you know they didn’t buy it? Most of the rich people spent a lot of money to buy them, otherwise how could there be so many jazzes? Which one is not bought with money?

It's just that the information is not developed and the time is missed. There is another reason, and that is his appearance. If Mo Bin didn't have a mixed-race appearance and his hair was dyed golden, the viscount wouldn't be able to turn him around, and he wouldn't be able to give him money at this time. The discrimination is more serious.

From the beginning, Mo Bin played a trick. He had a more Western appearance, dyed his hair yellow, and casually announced the English name of David Lee, which made Smith not think of a pure mainlander at all!

This is no joke. The lives of Chinese Americans in the United States are now in dire straits. The Eagle Country is not much better. They are clearly discriminating against you. Although the Chinese Exclusion Act was lifted at the end of 43, what is the real situation? Everyone understands that discrimination Very powerful.

(Let me explain here why the male protagonist was originally set as an ethnic minority and was scolded by many trolls. The scoldings were all unpleasant. It was because they were not allowed to write domestic stories and wanted to write foreign plots. But in this era It is true that it discriminates against Chinese Americans, and it is extremely serious. The chances of success are very low. If I write about it, I will probably get more trolls.)

"You...sir, can you speak Hoklo dialect?" Jiang Zhen was really surprised.

"Isn't this surprising? There are a lot of ghosts in Xiangjiang who can speak Cantonese! By the way, how many people do you have in Hongxing, and how many of them are there?" Mo Bin asked casually.

"We in Hongxing now have more than a thousand people. We now have five gang houses, mainly docks and squatters, where we all work hard to make ends meet." Jiang Zhen said sheepishly.

"Take me to visit the warehouse and introduce to me the situation of the Xiangjiang gang." Mo Bin was very interested in this.

"There are many gangs in Xiangjiang, varying in size. No one knows the exact number. There are at least hundreds of large and small societies. They exist in all walks of life. They collect protection fees, open gambling stalls, flower stalls, opium dens, and horse racing. We have no choice but to work together to stay warm, such as playing games, mahjong parlors, etc.," Jiang Zhen said helplessly.

"You're right. Today's Xiangjiang can be without police officers, but it cannot be without associations, otherwise it will be even more chaotic." Mo Bin agreed with him. Associations are special products, and they are not without merit.

"The big ones include He Zitou, Fu Zitou, Laochao, Number Gang, Dongxing, Four Big, Dongzitou, Quanzitou, Guangzitou, etc. There are also some small groups, such as Crossing the River Dragon. For example, there are countless people who play with fans, those who play with arms, smugglers, killers, Xiajiumen, etc., and most of them are in Kowloon Walled City." Jiang Zhen explained in detail.
