Siheyuan: Living in the People's Community, with a Heart for the Red Star

The procedure was handled by President Huang himself, and the contract was signed very smoothly. The gold was deposited for 20 years; the silver was purchased at the market price of RMB 70 and deposited in Huaguo Bank together with 1,000 million US dollars, 1,000 million British pounds, and 1,000 million Hong Kong dollars.

After collecting the silver purchase and sale contract, gold storage contract, and passbooks in US dollars, Hong Kong dollars, British pounds, and RMB, as well as the corresponding checks, Mr. Yang said to Mr. Huang, "Brother Huang, I guess I can't leave now, and I need to deal with other company matters right away. Let's meet at the Peninsula Hotel at 7pm. Mr. Huang, you must show up."

President Huang immediately responded, "What are you talking about, brother Li? I will go even if I have to brave the hail of bullets. I really don't have time at noon today because I have a lot of things to arrange. I will definitely be there on time in the evening."

"Then I will be waiting for Brother Huang at the Peninsula Hotel. Goodbye!"

President Huang immediately followed Lao Yang out of the bank and promised to have a drink with Lao Yang in the evening. He also promised to bring his own wine.

Lao Yang bid farewell to President Huang and drove the container back to the Star Ferry Pier to put it together with another container. He drove his Mustang back to the Peninsula Hotel. He contacted Curry to arrange for someone to return the two container trucks at the Star Ferry Pier and asked him to bring two bodyguards to accompany Lao Yang to investigate the company in the afternoon.

Lao Yang returned to the room and found that the two women had not come back yet, so he called four female bodyguards to go to the restaurant for a buffet.

At about 2:00 p.m., Curry came to the hotel to pick up Lao Yang to go to the investigation company. Lao Yang changed into formal clothes, put on some simple makeup, and took the car to the investigation company.

When the car arrived at the investigation company, Lao Yang saw Manager Duan waiting downstairs. Manager Duan immediately stepped forward to open the door for Lao Yang and warmly invited Lao Yang to go upstairs. When Lao Yang arrived at the investigation company, he and Manager Duan discussed the detailed terms of the employment contract.

For some sensitive clauses, detailed discussions with the parties are needed, and they should be filled in the contract template after confirmation. Manager Duan asked his subordinates to modify it according to the contract requirements and make several copies.

At 3 o'clock, Kong Yi came to the investigation company. Manager Duan arranged for Lao Yang to have a detailed discussion with Kong Yi in a reception room. Lao Yang recognized Kong Yi's calmness and experience very much. They discussed the salary and benefits, the company's current situation and development direction, and the heights to be achieved in the future. The two sides discussed for nearly an hour and finally decided that Kong Yi would serve as the general manager of Xinghai Ocean Shipping Company.

Lao Yang handed the company over to Kong Yi to handle, especially the personnel and organizational structure as well as the purchase or construction of his own shipyard and dock. Lao Yang hoped to complete the entire company structure within a year and start ship leasing and ocean transportation businesses. He told him that he would hire Ji Mingqi as the company's chief engineer later, and that he was still in the process of resigning and handing over.

Kong Yi suddenly felt a huge pressure. This was a company built from scratch, and he had to do everything by himself. He couldn't help but feel excited. A company he built with his own hands would appear in this world. It was a test of his ability, a recognition of himself, and the realization of his own value.

Old Yang was generous and promised to inject 1,000 million US dollars into the account of Sino-Ocean Company in the early stage. He would add more money later according to the actual situation. After signing the agreement, Old Yang sent Kong Yi away, who was eager to realize his life value.

At nearly 4 o'clock, Wu Wenqi came to the investigation company. Still in the same room, Lao Yang introduced the company's current situation and future development plan to Wu Wenqi. He also handed him a plan written by Lao Yang. From the plan, it can be seen that the future East Continent Trading Company will be larger than the previous East India Company. Wu Wenqi was very excited that such a great company would be born in his hands.

After getting excited, Lao Yang told Wu Wenqi that the company structure in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia must be fully established within one year, and the employees must be fully recruited. Wu Wenqi promised that he was confident in completing the task. So Lao Yang assuredly handed over the general manager of Dongdalu Trading Company to Wu Wenqi and signed an employment contract. Like Kong Yi, the annual salary was 100 million Hong Kong dollars. This negotiation took about half an hour to complete. Young people are so passionate!

Lao Yang and Manager Duan drank tea for a while, settled their agency fees, and then left the investigation company.

Thinking about inviting President Huang to dinner in the evening, Lao Yang decided to go back to the Peninsula Hotel to prepare in advance. He returned to the Peninsula Hotel at 5 o'clock.

When we arrived at the door of Lao Yang's room by elevator, we found a young man standing at the door. When the young man saw Lao Yang coming with his bodyguards, he immediately went to meet him. Two bodyguards stepped forward to separate Lao Yang and the young man.

The young man looked at Lao Yang and said, "You must be Li Dazhuang! I am Deng Junlai, I believe you should know my name. I was absent for just a few days and you took advantage of me. You are so ignorant and fearless! I am informing you on behalf of the Deng family and the Fang family. I hope you can give an explanation as soon as possible."

Old Yang looked at Deng Junlai and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Brother Cheese. Why are you, the head of the Punishment Hall, so picky when you see the gang leader?"

Lao Yang waved his hand to let the two bodyguards move aside, then walked forward and said, "Do you need me, the gang leader, to loosen your bones?"

Then he patted Deng Junlai on the shoulder and continued, "Call your brother-in-law to listen."

The contrast between before and after shocked Deng Junlai so much that he couldn't react: "Brother-in-law?"

"That's good! Your brother-in-law hasn't prepared anything good, so I'll give you this watch." Old Yang took out a watch he had taken back from the bank from the space and threw it to Deng Junlai.

Deng Junlai hurriedly caught the watch, and when he looked down, he saw that it was a gold and diamond watch launched by Patek Philippe in 35. The current market price is at least 50 US dollars. Deng Junlai was instantly upset. Who is this person? He is so arrogant, I have determined that he is my brother-in-law.

Deng Junlai immediately said to Lao Yang in a flattering manner: "Brother-in-law! ... Sister Haitang and Sister Meigui have been detained by our family. They are not allowed to see you, so I was sent to inform you. Tomorrow we will go to the Fang family's old house to have a three-court trial on you. We must confirm whether you are as rich and powerful as your sisters said. If so, we will agree to your marriage. If not, we will find a way to deal with you and prevent you from being together."

Old Yang patted Deng Junlai on the shoulder again and said, "Okay, I'm optimistic about you. Come on, let's go to the room and talk about the situation of your two families. I'm going to host a banquet for President Huang of Huaguo Bank, Huang Jincheng, in the evening, and you should accompany me to have dinner. Rest here tonight, and tomorrow we'll go together and venture into this dangerous place. We can't lose the reputation of our Changle Gang." After that, Old Yang took the lead and returned to the room.

The four female bodyguards in the living room immediately stood up and greeted Lao Yang when he came back. They asked Curry to take the bodyguards to rest in the living room. Lao Yang took Deng Junlai to the small cinema, turned on the equipment and played some light music.

Lao Yang and Deng Junlai sat on the sofa and talked about the situation of the Fang family and the Deng family.
