Joe didn't know that Chen Canaan came home with a pile of newspapers, cut out a picture of himself, and then, in spite of Hao Zai's strong protest, tore off all the hot female stars on the bed , Putting on this pile of newspaper clippings—he had long thought of the big girl on the wall, and this time he finally found a chance to cut the weeds and root them out. Today, looking at a photo of Joe wearing a suit and cutting the ribbon on the wall, he feels refreshed , a sense of pride welled up.
And poor Haozai's spiritual food was just abandoned by him, looking at the photos on the wall, wanting to cry without tears. Thinking of doing something bad when my parents are not at home in the future, it will be Joe's mother, so what else can I do
The end of the year is approaching, and it is the peak season for the retail industry. With the good start of the opening ceremony, the Mengzhen brand quickly gained a reputation in Hong Kong Island, and then entered the counters of shopping malls one after another. Because the tailoring quality is very good, and the price/performance ratio is much higher than that of foreign big brands, it has become the darling of emerging white-collar workers and middle-class business people. Especially for young people who have just entered the society, it has almost become their first choice for a business suit.
Qiao's career in this world went quite smoothly, but he attributed it to Lin Zihui's halo as the leading man.
At the same time, Chen Jianan's business of old and confused boys is also in full swing. Because of Qiao's relationship, he fell in love with wearing a suit. Every day, he wears a white shirt and a black suit, dressed neatly with a ponytail. Go outside the Walled City to collect accounts and grab land.
In addition to being more chic and handsome in formal clothes, it does not affect the speed of his punches, and the name of the suit thug gradually spread.
The only fortunate thing is that Zhao Shanhai didn't know what kind of consideration it was, and he didn't let him do other shady tricks except collecting accounts and grabbing land. Qiao didn't worry too much for a while, and even secretly hoped that he could stay like this until the next year, when the police raided the city and wiped out Zhao Shanhai's gang, then Chen Jianan would be able to leave He Xingshe, at that time, should also have enough ability to pave the way for him.
At the end of the year, a small event happened in the city. Lin Zhaoming's Lin Group and his wife's Zhong Group merged to form the new Lin Group, with Lin Zhaoming as the chairman and Zhong Kai as the director. Only two days after the public announcement, Zhong Kai left for the UK.
The outside world didn't know what happened, but Joe knew that it must have something to do with the initial assassination. No one knows what Lin Zhaoming has done in the past six months, but it is obvious that he has won a complete victory in this family strife.
The calm Lin family is undoubtedly a place of right and wrong, and Lin Zihui of course knows this too. Under Qiao's suggestion, he completely separated the Mengzhen brand from Mingyue Factory, and became a complete brand. I started my own business, and moved into a new factory after only a few years.

This year is coming to an end, and Joe has received tens of thousands of yuan in dividends based on 10% of the contract's profit, which can be regarded as his real pot of gold in this world.
Although the ready-made garment industry has great prospects, it is not what he is interested in. It is impossible for him to follow Lin Zihui all the time. As long as you live in this world, you must have a career that truly belongs to you.
And to open an account, you need enough funds. This dividend plus the tens of millions in the stock market, although it seems like a huge number, it is far from enough to do something.
Fortunately, this is a great era in which the myth of wealth can be easily created. When the stock market collapses, there will be the housing market, and when the housing market is depressed, there will be gold and crude oil. He is not an investment genius, but he was lucky enough to grasp a little opportunity.
Half a month before the stock market closed a year ago, he and Chen Jianan went to the stock exchange with all their stock certificates.
The stock market has been rising steadily, and today it has reached a new peak. Many stockholders are so jealous that they not only bet all their net worth, but also borrowed money to enter the stock market. The temptation of getting something for nothing and getting rich overnight is indeed too attractive.
When walking into the stock exchange, Chen Jianan was startled when he saw stockholders crowding in the hall and frantically buying stocks, and said: "So many people's stocks, do I really want to sell them all now? Don't keep any ?”
Joe said: "A stock god said a famous investment saying, others are greedy and I am afraid, others are fearful and I am greedy. So many people frantically rushing into the stock market, it means that the time to withdraw has come. Go to the queue and clear them all. "
Chen Jianan seemed to understand the location, and went to queue with the stocks.
Qiao Yan, who followed behind him, looked around at the swarming crowd, and sighed silently. In the first half of next year, the stock market crash will come. I don't know how many people here will go bankrupt, wives and children, or even their families will be destroyed.
In the capital game, most ordinary people are cannon fodder, and only capitalists will always profit.
After finishing the transaction, the canvas bag in Chen Jianan's hand became bulging, and it was more than two million yuan they got from selling the stocks. During this period of time, because of debt collection and lending, he quickly entered the period of the highest income in nineteen years, and he could earn several thousand a month.
At this time, carrying more than two million yuan, it was like sleepwalking. He kept pulling Qiao and said, "Little Qiao, did I really make so much money? Why do I feel so unreal?" Pull the zipper a little to see if the money inside is still there.
Qiao laughed and said, "Of course the money is real, as real as the bullet hole in your stomach. If you don't earn three or four times the principal you exchanged for half your life, how can it be worthwhile?"
Chen Jianan touched the scar left by the gunshot wound on his stomach, and nodded: "It's true." Seeing that Qiao was leading him back to the city, he asked strangely, "Xiao Qiao, I don't know." Where are you going now?"
Qiao said, "Go buy a house."
Chen Jianan was surprised: "Buy a house?"
Qiao turned to look at him and said with a smile, "Then what are you going to do with one million? Eat offal? That's enough for you for several lifetimes."
"I..." Chen Jianan suddenly wanted to live in a bright and spacious apartment one day, but he just thought about it. After all, as a child in a slum, living in a high-rise house is too far away for him. I don't know if I can afford it in seven or eight years. Now holding more than one million yuan, after listening to Qiao's reminder, I realized that I can afford a house, which means that my father, uncle, aunt, and uncle can live in a certain place. An apartment with gas in the water, I get excited just thinking about it.
He reacted, and asked again: "Where did you see the house?"
Qiao said: "A batch of new high-rise apartments have just been built in the area near Yau Ma Tei in Kowloon Bay. I read the advertisements in the newspapers. The prices are quite reasonable. The main reason is that it is very close to the Walled City. Your uncle and aunt also All wealthy youngsters are working in the Walled City. Even if they move, they will not be able to do other jobs for a while. My grandma is the same. I can afford it, but it is definitely the same for him to enjoy the blessings at home now. I don’t want to be small. So I decided to build a new home, not too far from the city.”
Chen Jianan pressed hard: "It's still you who are thoughtful, I'm still in Hexing Club now, it's really inconvenient to live too far away."
Today, the real estate industry in Hong Kong City is in the ascendant, and a large number of high-rise buildings have sprung up. The real estate that Joe is interested in has just been launched. It is the same as most of the houses in this city. It is small in size, but it has complete supporting facilities and convenient transportation.
The apartment is just a simple decoration, but Chen Jianan is like grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, fumbling here and there, running to the kitchen for a while, and rushing to the bathroom for a while.
"Little Qiao, there are several water taps, and I will never have to carry water again in the future."
"Yes."
"The room is also very big, and two beds can be put down, so I don't have to share one with Haozai."
"That's right."
"When the time comes, buy a big sofa, and put the TV in front of the sofa. The electricity here should be very stable, and it won't be cut off three times a day like in the walled city."
"Of course, this is electricity provided by a regular power company."
To be honest, Joe used to live in a mansion. This kind of apartment in the 1970s, although compared with the tenements in the Walled City, is a heaven and a ground, but in fact, it is not very attractive to him. It's nothing more than wanting to cross over.
However, he was still moved by Chen Jianan's undisguised excitement. Only those without great ambitions and desires can be so easily satisfied.
After Chen Jianan visited the neighbourhood, he dragged him to the balcony again, looking down from a height, he could have a panoramic view of the bustling city, and it was no longer a dark alley.
"Can we see planes here like a city wall?" He was so excited that he couldn't help but look up to the sky and asked,
Qiao smiled: "It should be possible, but I won't be disturbed by the motor again."
The two always mentioned the Walled City, and the only Walled City in Hong Kong was called the Walled City of Kowloon. The salesman heard it, and he had other ideas.
Although Qiao Yu and Chen Jianan are still wearing suits today, after all, they are only eighteen or nineteen-year-old young people. With the word "city walled" in their mouths, it is hard to believe that they can afford the value. Hundreds of thousands of new apartments.
Seeing the two of them holding each other as if they were talking in sleep, the salesman couldn't help it. He stepped forward to interrupt their vision of the future, and asked with a smile on his face: "Are you two gentlemen optimistic? There are a lot of people looking at the house, and I still need to entertain the next wave of guests.”
Qiao Yu was also infected by Chen Jianan and forgot about his business. He just remembered it when he heard the reminder from the salesman, so he returned politely and said, "It's not easy to think about it, I was the one who talked about it." It’s gone. I want both this apartment and the smaller one next door I just saw.”
The man was slightly taken aback, and said, "The total price of these two apartments is 1.2 million. Are you sure you want it?"
Joe nodded: "OK."
The man said again: "If you're sure, I need to pay the deposit right away. Is it convenient for you?"
Joe still smiled and nodded: "No problem."
He and Chen Jianan, two young people, looked like they had never seen the world just now, so it is not surprising that they were suspected of having no purchasing power. Qiao Yu has a good temper, but Chen Jianan has a serious and violent temper, especially when he broke into the city, he would not look down on him at all. Seeing this man at the moment, he seems a little displeased Go up to him and little Joe. It's fine if you don't like him, but you dare to look down on Xiao Qiao who was featured in the newspapers.
He was suddenly furious. Unzip the canvas bag, throw it on the ground, and said angrily, "What? You think I can't afford it? Take me to sign the contract now!"
The man's eyes fell on the big bag of banknotes on the ground, and he took a deep breath. Combined with Chen Jianan's fierce expression, he very much suspected that it was money just robbed from the bank. Unexpectedly, seeing the expression on Qiao's beautiful face, he felt that his conjecture was difficult to establish.
In the end, under Chen Jianan's anger, the man wiped the sweat from his brow and took the two of them to sign the contract.
