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

The three of them rushed to the airport and saw Soli again in the terminal. Lao Yang went up to greet him warmly: "Hey! Mr. Soli, is this a government-funded tour? You're flying around with us. If you were a little calmer, you should be waiting for us in Hong Kong now. We are definitely going back. We are on our honeymoon, and you're running around with us like you're trying to take advantage of the government!"

Soli smiled faintly and said to Lao Yang: "Mr. Li, you are joking. I am doing my job and you are my research subject! Studying you fills me with infinite passion. This world is really amazing. There is such a magical person like Mr. Li!"

Old Yang said solemnly: "Then Mr. Sony is a bit busy. There are many strange people and things in the world! It's just that you lack a pair of eyes that are good at discovering. I hope Mr. Sony has a pleasant journey!" Old Yang waved to Sony and went to the cafe to accompany the two ladies for coffee.

After Lao Yang left, Suo Li stopped smiling and thought about what Lao Yang said: This world is so big, there are so many amazing things, are there many other amazing people like Lao Yang? Should I study this aspect in the future?

Soon the plane prompted boarding and preparation for takeoff. Lao Yang and his two wives boarded the plane in first class, while Sony bought a business class ticket. Soon the plane took off smoothly and arrived at Paris Airport smoothly after more than 5 hours.

When getting off the plane, Lao Yang waved to Solly and said, "Mr. Solly, we are going to the George V Hotel. I wonder if Mr. Soni is also staying in the same hotel. If so, we can leave together and it can save Mr. Solly some money!"

Sony accepted it calmly and said, "Thank you very much, Mr. Li. I am also staying at the George V Hotel. We can travel together."

Lao Yang pulled the luggage and said to Sony: "Ok, let's go!"

The two ladies took Lao Yang's arm and walked out of the airport. After the four of them left the airport, Lao Yang waved and called a long Lincoln luxury taxi. The four of them got in the car. Lao Yang picked up the drinks in the car and handed one to each of the two ladies. He also picked up a bottle and drank it. Then he raised the drink in his hand and said to Soli, "Mr. Soli, don't be polite. Choose your own way and I'll pay for it!"

Soli then took a bottle of coconut juice and said to Lao Yang: "Thank you, Mr. Li. As a rich man, Mr. Li really lives a carefree life! Unlike us public servants, we live a tight life."

While drinking his drink, Lao Yang said to Soli, "Mr. Soli, you have to admit that in this world, you can't get the results you want just by working hard, but you just happen to grab the results when they appear in front of you! Maybe you don't understand it now, but when you become a rich man, you will find that I am right."

Soli smiled and replied, "What Mr. Li said is really profound. I can't understand it now. I hope I can understand the meaning of Mr. Li's words one day in the future."

Old Yang said mysteriously: "Mr. Soli, I am actually very lonely now, and I need a master to fight with me. I hope Mr. Soli is such a person that I am looking forward to." After saying that, Old Yang smiled and leaned back in his chair, squinting his eyes and took a rest.

Solly fell silent, thinking about something. The car fell into silence for a while, and the two ladies drank their drinks silently. The driver drove the car very smoothly, and soon the car arrived at the George V Hotel. After parking, the four people got out of the car. Lao Yang led the two ladies into the hotel, got the key of the luxury suite they had reserved, waved to Solly and said goodbye. Then they got on the elevator under the guidance of the doorman.

After Lao Yang and the other two got on the elevator, Soli booked a standard room. He and his French colleague who had rushed over took turns waiting for Lao Yang in the lobby, monitoring his every move.

After putting away their luggage, Lao Yang and the other two started to take a shower. After taking a shower and taking a short rest, the three of them went out of the hotel and went shopping at the Champs Elysees. The three hired three cart pushers and started a crazy shopping spree. Soon the two women's shopping carts were full of items, and Lao Yang had only put half of them. Later, the items bought by the two women were thrown into Lao Yang's shopping cart, and soon the three shopping carts were full. It was already 7 o'clock in the evening, so the three of them went back to the hotel and put the purchased items in the room. Then they went to the restaurant on the first floor of the George V Hotel for authentic Western food.

It was hard to come to a standard western restaurant, an authentic western restaurant, so Lao Yang ordered the best western food, such as foie gras, caviar, truffles, onion soup, steak, French roast goose, and all the top dishes that Lao Yang could think of or the restaurant. Lao Yang ordered them all, whether to eat them or not. Unexpectedly, all of the things Lao Yang said were served on the table soon. Lao Yang and his two wives looked at the plates on the table, and the few dishes, and Lao Yang really wanted to complain: That's your soup!

Lao Yang picked up his knife and fork and began to taste the dishes bit by bit. Although the taste was really good, the portions were really small. The two ladies ate with gusto. After finishing all the dishes except the roast goose, Lao Yang called the waiter to order another portion, which made the three of them satisfied.

Feeling very tired after eating Western food, Lao Yang accompanied the two wives back to the hotel to wash up and rest, preparing to visit the attractions in Paris the next day.

The next day, after breakfast, Lao Yang called the two girls and went to the scenic spots around Paris to take pictures. The Leaning Tower of Paris, Notre Dame de Paris, the Seine River of Paris, and the Arc de Triomphe of Paris all left Lao Yang and the two ladies with their photos. At noon, the three of them had a delicious Western meal, and then continued to visit the Paris Opera House, the Paris Conservatory of Music, and the Paris Film Factory. They also met several world-famous stars and took photos and signed autographs. In the evening, after dinner, the three of them went to the Paris Opera House to watch a play. To be honest, the three of them only watched it in vain, watching the actors' mechanical movements and the French they didn't quite understand. The three of them quietly slipped away halfway through the show.

The three of them were chatting on the street while looking at the neon-lit city at night, and then they walked back to the hotel.

On the third day, the three of them continued shopping and bought a large number of French clothing, European folk clothing, and European jewelry. The three of them also bought a lot of Chinese antique calligraphy and paintings in the market. Lao Yang spent money to pack them up and ship them back to Hong Kong together with the clothes he bought, this time in another container!

On the fourth day, the three of them came to the Louvre to view the art treasures. The Louvre displays artworks from various countries, and each museum has different characteristics. Although Lao Yang does not know much about art, he also carefully observed the styles of each venue and artwork. Yes, that is, the style. Lao Yang does not know much about art, so he can only look at the appearance, the kind that looks worth money. The two ladies looked with great interest and commented on each artwork or antique.

The three of them stayed in the Louvre for a whole day and left only when it closed at night. When they returned to the hotel, the two women were still discussing which artworks were more beautiful and more valuable. Old Yang would occasionally chime in, thinking that the golden tower must be very valuable, Rose always thought that the Pharaoh's scepter was more valuable, and Begonia thought that the famous paintings were more valuable. The three people who had no artistic talent were talking about money.

The three people's visit to the Louvre caused a lot of trouble for Soli. Soli was wondering if Lao Yang was going to rob the Louvre. After all, such a special place with special significance and a lot of treasures should be of great interest to Lao Yang! It is also the most likely place to start, but he soon overturned his speculation.

On the fifth day, Lao Yang and his two wives boarded a plane back to Hong Kong. When the plane arrived at the Hong Kong airport, Lao Yang stopped Soli who was about to leave in a car and said, "Mr. Soli, how do you feel about going out with us for a honeymoon? Do you feel that life is not easy? In fact, I am optimistic about you. Why don't you come and follow me? I will definitely live a more carefree life than you do now. I can also set up a company for you and make you rich quickly so that you can experience the imperfections of your life!"

Soli looked at Lao Yang, shook his head and said, "I am a pure person, a person who is free from vulgar tastes. I will defend every inch of land and every interest for my country. So thank you for Mr. Li's invitation, I'm sorry to disappoint you!" After that, he got in the car and left.

Old Yang curled his lips and said, "I was just teasing you. Do you think I would let a foreigner follow me? Ha!" Old Yang returned to the Rolls-Royce and returned to the villa with the two ladies.

After returning to the villa, the three of them took the time to wash up and eat.

Old Yang called housekeeper Tian and asked, "How is the family doing recently? Has the construction of Lion Mountain Manor started?"

Butler Tian immediately reported, "Since you and your two wives went on your honeymoon, the company has been operating normally, and the Changle Gang has been developing relatively low-key. There are already 20 guards. There are two masters who I don't know how to judge, and I'm waiting for your comments when you come back. The sects from the mainland have successively received people from the Bagua Sect and the Shaolin Vajra Sect. The Vajra Sect left two people, and the Bagua Sect people were taken away by the Bagua Sect in Hong Kong after they arrived. The design drawings of the Lion Mountain Manor we are building have been produced, and the real-life sand table has been prepared and is waiting for you and your wife to make the final decision. As for building materials, we have contacted many companies and have begun to prepare stocks. Some precious plants and rocks have been shipped to Lion Mountain from various places."

Old Yang continued, "We still need experts to guard the courtyard, and we don't mind too few. It's really hard to recruit from these sects. After all, Hong Kong is a microcosm of the martial arts world, and many gangs have branches. They have their own place to stay after they come, and they won't easily surrender to us. So let's try our best to win them over. If they can come, they can come. If they don't want to come, we won't force them. We still have to follow the etiquette. We want to make Changle Gang the largest sect in Hong Kong, and other gangs have to look up to us to survive."

Steward Tian said, "You are right. Our Changle Gang has already recruited several masters. These people practice martial arts on their own. Why don't we build a martial arts school and bring our brothers together to learn from each other and improve their fighting skills?"

Old Yang looked at Butler Tian with a high eye and said, "Old Tian, ​​you have a very active mind. I have thought about what you said a long time ago. I have already recruited several super masters from the inland to build a martial arts school to promote martial arts! Since you brought it up, then you should find a place in Kowloon to buy land and build a two-story martial arts school. Our martial arts school must be built with excellence and be suitable for the practice of Chinese and Western martial arts, boxing, etc. Divide the martial arts school into more than a dozen small halls, distinguishing between fists, kicks, weapons and firearms, and each venue focuses on one aspect. Specially hire people to study various fitness equipment to polish the bodies of our brothers. The food in the martial arts school must be good, because practicing martial arts consumes a lot of energy."

"In the future, we will set up a martial arts level test, and the test will be held in our martial arts hall. Martial artists who fail to take the test will not be allowed to take jobs in Hong Kong!"

"Okay, I've written them all down and will execute them one by one."

Old Yang said to Butler Tian: "These things are a plan. Don't be too anxious. It's impossible to achieve them all at once. We have to develop these things slowly. After all, we have limited people. But your master has unlimited money."

"Hahahaha..." Old Yang laughed.

Steward Tian continued to report to Old Yang, saying, "Recently, the gang has reported that Master Deng Junlai is not doing well in Nanyang. He has been assassinated several times and is in danger. Three of the brothers we sent over have also died, and the gang has sent a few more people over. I suspect that the general has cooperated with other forces and may be trying to harm Master Deng."

Old Yang frowned, thought for a moment and said, "I'll go get him back later. It doesn't matter whether the deal is successful or not, but the person must be fine!"

Butler Tian continued, "Recently, the 14K has been quite active, often coming to our territory to sell drugs. They also occasionally instigate some small gangs to cause trouble in our territory."

Old Yang smiled this time and said contemptuously: "It's okay, don't worry about it for now, they are already on the list, let them enjoy their time for a while."

Butler Tian continued, "After you and your wife left, Mr. Jiang from Sun Yee On sent a visiting card, wanting to meet with you to discuss cooperation."

Old Yang nodded and said, "Mr. Jiang, don't worry about this matter for now. Just put it on hold and remind me again in half a month."

Butler Tian said, "Yes, I'll make a note of it."

"The Changle Gang has received news that the food and coal sent to Japan have been sold out. The electrical appliances smuggled from there have also been shipped to the inland in several batches and traded to the Xingbang Company. The Xingbang Company has sent a message asking you to take some time to meet in Shenzhen. There is something to discuss."

"Okay, then you remind me and I'll go there when I get back from Nanyang. Anything else?"

"Some of my brothers have difficulties at home and came to me to ask if they can borrow some money from the master to help them settle down. I lent HK$500 to each of them. Does the master have any arrangements in this regard?"

After a moment of silence, Lao Yang thought for a while and said, "Originally, we wanted to give some benefits to the brothers. I have already told you before that since the brothers are not well off, you should make a record here. All brothers can borrow money from us, but they must have other brothers as guarantors. For brothers who are really in trouble, we can advance their wages, up to 5 months in advance, and pay them back within 10 months. We will only pay half of their wages every month, so that the brothers will not go hungry. Just do as I say! If there are any changes later, I will notify you to make changes."

Manager Tian sighed and said, "The master is really generous. Following the master is a blessing for them in this life!"

Old Yang nodded in agreement and said, "There are really not many good people in this world, but I am one of them!"
