I became a poor little sophora japonica in the courtyard

Lou Mansion, 26 Hillier Street, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong Island.

Lou Zhenhua, wearing pajamas, entered the study room in the inner hall of the central courtyard. He locked the door, opened the safe next to the desk with the key, and carefully took out a book from it.

In the past ten years, he has read this book countless times. He has memorized all the nearly 500,000 words in it. But he is still obsessed with this book. If he doesn't go to the study to read it every night, he will toss and turn in bed.

No matter how carefully he turned the pages, the edges of the book were already curled up. This made him take even more care of it, and he would only study it word by word after taking a bath at night.

Among the many rare treasures he brought to Hong Kong from China, the value of this book is the greatest, far exceeding the sum of all the other treasures.

He has brought the Le and Wei families to Hong Kong for seven years. With the help of the vast amount of information in this book, the three families are now thriving in Hong Kong.

The Le family reopened the Renxintang pharmacy in Hong Kong and opened a Chinese medicine factory, while the Wei family entered many businesses such as high-end restaurants and hotels, real estate, and jewelry.

His Lou family business is thriving. Lou's Ocean Shipping Company and Bao's Shipping Company are now running side by side, with a total of 28 ocean-going cargo ships of various sizes. He also took over three cargo terminals and four large warehouses. His Lou's Import and Export Freight Exchange Company has business all over the world.

The three of them also jointly invested to establish a financial investment company to enter the financial securities industry in Hong Kong. With the tips given to him by the book, this financial investment company is also at the top of the industry in Hong Kong.

There was still more than half a year before the situation there would be turbulent. My family was almost trapped there and couldn't get out, just like a stray dog ​​running away in panic.

Lou Zhenhua read the book again and felt deeply moved when he read about the difficult situation his family was in at that time! It was this book that made him start planning more than ten years ago and come to Hong Kong eight years in advance.

Xu Yueling, no! It was Lou Jingyi. I wonder how this granddaughter of mine in the book is doing in that place?

With her intelligence and talent, Lou Zhenhua was not worried about her poor life. Instead, he felt it was a pity that this talented and beautiful girl did not choose to stay with him.

If she could come to Hong Kong with my family, I would definitely treat her as my own child, just like I treated Lou Xiao'e!

Lou Xiao'e and Le Mingxuan got married right after they graduated from college. They have been married for four years and now have a son and a daughter. Her son-in-law Le Mingxuan is the general manager of his own pharmaceutical factory, and Lou Xiao'e is in charge of finance at Lou's Trading Company.

In 1958, he brought his family to the Lou Mansion on Xili Street and met his eldest son Lou Qiming and his family. As described in the book, he married an opera singer as his third wife.

He carefully observed his eldest son's behavior and found that he was just as described in the book: selfish and petty.

Lou Zhenhua resolutely excluded him from the company's decision-making level and devoted all his efforts to training his younger brother Lou Zhenguo's eldest son, Lou Qigang, who had just graduated from university.

Over the past seven years, his son has tried every possible way to gain benefits in the company. Now he has gradually lost his patience, like a hungry wolf hiding in the dark, with a ferocious and sinister look in his eyes. He will seize the opportunity to bare his fangs at the Lou family!

Lou Zhenhua carefully put the book back into the safe. Lou Zhenhua would definitely go back to repay the owner of the book. If he could live to the early 1980s, he would go back to the city of Beijing to thank him in person.

"Zhenguo, come to my study." Lou Zhenhua used the phone on the desk to call Lou Zhenguo, who lived in the west courtyard next door.

After a while, Lou Zhenguo hurried into the inner hall study. "Brother, why did you call me here so late? What happened?" Lou Zhenguo asked hurriedly.

"Sit down first! I heard that my rebellious son has been very restless in the company recently. I want to separate him out. Do you have any ideas?" Lou Zhenhua stated his thoughts straight to the point.

"Brother! Qiming is your only son. Although his ability to work in the company is not very good, there is no need to separate him out." Lou Zhenguo looked at his elder brother in shock, really not knowing what he was thinking.

Lou Zhenhua sat quietly behind his desk. After intense thinking in his mind, he decided to reveal some inside information to his younger brother. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to convince his younger brother Lou Zhenguo.

"This rebellious son is about to kill his father! And he will attack you too, but you are lucky and only suffered minor injuries. He covets the family property and is willing to do anything crazy." Lou Zhenhua sighed and said to his younger brother.

"How is this possible? Brother, how did you know? Did someone tell you something?" Lou Zhenguo was horrified! He thought this was a bit absurd and bizarre.

"You don't believe it? To tell you the truth, the reason why our Lou family has been going smoothly till now is not because of my sharp judgment and calm business mind. It is because there is an expert guiding us behind the scenes!" Lou Zhenhua revealed to his younger brother.

"But what does this have to do with Qiming's crazy behavior? Could that expert have predicted it?" Lou Zhenguo didn't believe it at all! Just based on someone's words, the father and son would kill each other?

"Since you still don't believe it, let me show you something. This is what the master gave to my Lou family twelve years ago."

Lou Zhenhua took out the key and opened the safe. If he didn't produce any concrete evidence, his brother Lou Zhenguo wouldn't believe it. Whatever! I'll pass it on to him sooner or later, so I'll let him see it tonight.

Seeing his elder brother carefully taking out a book from the safe, Lou Zhenguo was completely confused! He didn't know what his elder brother was up to.

"This book is a warning to our Lou family! I used it to change the fate of many members of our family. You must read it carefully!" Lou Zhenhua placed the book in front of him and warned him.

Seeing that his elder brother was so cautious about the book, Lou Zhenguo nodded and leaned over the desk to carefully read through it.

At first he pretended to be serious, but after flipping through twenty or thirty pages, he turned the pages slower and slower, with a storm of emotions rising in his heart.

"Brother, you have kept this book for twelve years? How is this possible? Is there really someone who can predict the future?" Lou Zhenguo couldn't help but screamed.

"This concerns the rise and fall of our Lou family. I would never joke with you like this. Turn to page 132 and see how this rebellious son hired assassins to deal with you."

Lou Zhenhua had read the book so thoroughly that he knew exactly what was on which page.

"I didn't expect Lou Qiming to be so crazy! Big brother, what should we do now?" Lou Zhenguo was also horrified after seeing this! He had absolute trust in his big brother.

No wonder the eldest brother would rather train his own nephew and not be kind to his own son. This family scum who killed his father and uncle should be cleared out of the family.

"Although the book says that this rebellious son will not take action until 1978. But I came to Hong Kong eight years earlier, and everything has changed. So, we must also take precautions in advance," Lou Zhenhua explained.

"A few years ago, he proposed to me that he wanted the company to invest in cooperation with others to open a gaming company in Southeast Asia. I have no interest in this gray industry, so I rejected him. Now I can let him take the money and go to Southeast Asia to run his own business."

Lou Zhenguo suddenly thought of something and gave his elder brother an idea: exile him overseas first, so that he wouldn't have to be on guard against him every day at home.

"That's good! Let him go to Southeast Asia first, and then arrange someone to keep an eye on him. If there is any movement, send a message back immediately! I'll leave this matter to you personally."

Lou Zhenhua made up his mind that this matter could not be delayed any longer. He must take precautions in advance and never let the scene described in the book happen.
