Rebirth in the 90s: The sharp Hong Kong sister uses her beauty to commit crimes

Chapter 72: 072. Trust the people you employ and do not employ those you do not trust

Zhao Zitong pouted secretly in her heart:

Li Ninghao said this as if it was his own responsibility if this matter was not handled well. He is not good at doing things efficiently but is quite good at passing the buck.

Zhao Zitong looked at Yu Wenyin's awkward appearance and felt that there was no need to make things so awkward. If they really wanted to get married in the future, they would inevitably have to deal with each other.

He raised his long legs, sat down, and asked Li Ninghao:

"Granny Gao's house is about 500 square feet. How much is the purchase price you offered?"

When calculating the area of a house, Hong Kong uses the imperial square foot, while the mainland uses the metric square meter:

1000 square feet = 92.90304 square meters

So what Hong Kong calls a thousand-square-foot mansion is actually a house of 92 square meters.

Hong Kong’s ground construction space has reached its limit. For more than half a century, it has been a high-standard area in the real estate industry where every inch of land is worth a lot of money.

An ordinary family of four or five people build bunk beds in a "pigeon cage" of more than ten square meters.

In some places, five or six people are squeezed into a small shed of less than ten square meters, which makes eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping extremely inconvenient.

In 2021, the price of a thousand-square-foot luxury home in Hong Kong is no less than ten million.

Most celebrities in the entertainment industry only live in mansions of around 1,000 square feet.

So when it comes to the housing happiness index, the mainland is more comfortable.

The area of Grandma Gao's house converted into mainland China's calculation method is 46 square meters.

In the mainland, it is the standard for one bedroom and one living room.

This house of more than 40 square meters was previously fully occupied by Grandma Gao and her husband, their son and daughter-in-law, and their five-year-old son.

No wonder Grandma Gao’s daughter-in-law wanted to move out. A family of five was squeezed into such a small house.

If I say it's not frustrating, no one will believe it...

"House prices have been rising recently. According to the latest housing price standards for the area, the total purchase price for Granny Gao's unit is 1.15 million yuan,"

Li Ninghao took out some documents from his briefcase and pointed to the property handover contract to show her.

At the end of February 1991, the Gulf War ended and oil prices began to return to normal.

Influenced by factors such as the improvement of the international environment, the Hong Kong property market, which has eased for more than a year, is ready to take off and the heat is rising rapidly again.

In just one month, the property prices in Whampoa Garden and Taikoo Shing increased from HK$24,700 per square meter to HK$35,500.

Amid this real estate boom, property speculation in Hong Kong is becoming more and more intense.

In fact, the property speculation craze in Hong Kong has been revived since 1985, and phenomena such as professional speculators and group speculators have emerged.

Clashes frequently occurred among people queuing up to buy houses, and even resulted in a murder.

The buildings in Causeway Bay are old, so they are lower than the big ancient city in the Eastern District.

In total, the price of Grandma Gao's house is 25,000 yuan per square meter.

Property repossession in Hong Kong is different from that in the Mainland.

There is no such thing as a 1:1.2 demolition compensation clause.

The developers simply purchase the properties with money and give the money to the owners, and that’s the end of the matter.

Whether they buy a house or invest outside, it is their own business.

1.15 million may sound like a lot, but in fact it can only buy a house of more than 30 square meters in Taikoo Shing.

However, who would buy a house with full payment

With 1.15 million as a down payment, you can buy a 1,000 square foot luxury house in Hong Kong...

We have to admit that the real estate model in Hong Kong in the 1990s is similar to that in the mainland in the 21st century.

Although Zhao Zitong was reborn, it sounds very cool.

In fact, in Hong Kong, a place full of experts, her brain and skills are no match for those real estate tycoons.

She must not become arrogant and conceited because she is a reborn person, thinking that she can do anything.

Otherwise, those smart businessmen in Hong Kong during the golden age would definitely let her know what it means to be ignorant of the immensity of the world!

This is also the reason why she wants to return to the mainland to develop.

The real estate pie in Hong Kong is too small and has been almost divided up by the four major families.

As for the mainland, not only is the cake big, but it is also just in the stage of kneading the flour.

If you don't take the lead now, you will lag behind others by several steps in the future.

Therefore, we must seize the time to earn our first pot of gold.

"Okay, then give me a check for 1.15 million, and I'll take care of Granny Gao in the next two days."

Zhao Zitong spoke out his thoughts without thinking.

Since Granny Gao doesn't like the people from Qihang Real Estate, why not just find someone else to buy from her

"What do you want to do?" Li Ninghao was worried and looked at Zhao Zitong suspiciously.

"What can I do? Of course I'll buy a house from Grandma Gao. Are you afraid that I'll abscond with the money?" Zhao Zitong smiled and asked Li Ninghao.

"Zitong, Ning Hao didn't mean that..." Yu Wenyin's voice was a little low. To be honest, she also had this concern. The events of the school board meeting were still fresh in her memory.

"That's the best if you don't mean that. Trust the people you employ, and don't employ the people you don't trust. My request is that simple. Please discuss it and get back to me."

After saying that, Zhao Zitong stood up and went outside to get some fresh air.

It’s almost twelve o’clock now, and there are still so many people eating supper in Hong Kong…

Anyone who has traveled to Hong Kong knows that the most fascinating thing about Hong Kong at night is not the neon lights of Victoria Harbour, but

Rather, it is the bustling crowds and the wide variety of delicious food from 9pm to 6am the next morning, a late-night food culture known as the "fourth meal" by Hong Kong people.

What distinguishes Hong Kong supper from other late-night snack cultures is its quality and variety; “Supper is not just some random street food after a night of partying.

In Hong Kong, many late-night or all-night restaurants serve a variety of fresh seafood, exquisite wontons and freshly-made Chinese dim sum. "

Hong Kong's climate is hot and humid, which can affect people's appetite during the day.

The locals therefore have the habit of feasting after sunset.

Residents tend to stay up late because of long work hours and a rich social life that often takes place in public places rather than crowded apartments.

Hong Kong has the most restaurants per capita in the world, but that's partly because Hong Kong people's homes are too small to host guests.

Hong Kong people love to eat, so Zhao Zitong is confident about the business he is about to start.

Zhao Zitong was outside thinking about her "Qian Dama" business.

Yu Wenyin and Li Ninghao were discussing whether to make the next risky move...

1.15 million is not a small amount...

If Zhao Zitong ran away with the money, where would he find the 1.15 million to make up the difference

But if I don't give it to her, I won't be able to say a word to Grandma Gao, let alone talk about taking back the house.

All in all, the left rear is in trouble.

"Ning Hao, Zitong won't cheat her friends. I trust her."

Yu Wenyin poured a cup of tea for her boyfriend. She looked submissive and looked like a strict husband.
