Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss
Chapter 446 Arrangement for Ruby
Seeing that Lohank and Slade looked confused, Mike explained the meaning to them.
As Mike finished speaking, the two men understood that this was a greeting gift from the young boss in front of them, but Luo Hank did not dare to follow Mike's example.
He is a person with a weak backing and is quite wary of the ICAC.
As for Slade, he belongs to the military. For a big boss like Liu Xu who gave him 200,000 Hong Kong dollars as a gift, Slade just wanted to say "give me more".
If the goods at the border involve contraband, he will agree on the surface. When the stolen goods are seized, he will take all the blame. If there are no contraband involved, he will turn a blind eye and do his best to protect the other party.
Seeing that Lohank was hesitant, Mike comforted him, "Lohank, this is one of the heirlooms passed down by your ancestors after they crossed the Strait of Gibraltar. Why don't you recognize it?"
"I believe that even if the ICAC is in a hurry to meet its targets this year, it will still investigate you for selling your heirloom."
"After all, there are many such antiques in our British Museum, right? And Xu can issue receipts for us. This is a legitimate income, the kind that pays taxes to the Queen."
"You are a generous friend. If you need any help in the future, just let me know, Mr. Liu." After Luo Hank put away the porcelain bowl in front of him, he gave a thumbs up and praised.
"I do have something I need your help with." Liu Xu said bluntly without any politeness:
"I recently set up a transportation company, planning to transport Xiaguo's vegetables to Hong Kong Island by sea and land, and to transport Hong Kong Island's discs to the mainland."
"But since I have no friends in these two departments and I am worried that I will encounter all kinds of troubles during the transportation process, I have never officially started the operation."
"If there are friends who are willing to help me solve these concerns, my company will be able to start business soon."
Slade and Lohank looked at each other, and both saw disbelief in each other's eyes. Was he afraid of trouble so he gave away 200,000 Hong Kong dollars? Was it so easy to make money in Hong Kong Island? Or was there a scam?
Slade was the first to react. He patted his chest and responded confidently, "Oh, Mr. Liu, if that's really the case, then I must be your friend."
Luo Hank followed closely behind: "As for the waterway, I am very willing to be your friend, Mr. Liu."
Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Liu Xu happily toasted the two: "I am very happy to have become friends with you two. It seems that in the future, I will have to prepare twelve porcelain bowls every year."
Slade and Lohank's eyes lit up when they heard this, and they quickly stood up and replied: "Being friends with Mr. Liu will definitely be the best decision I have ever made in my life."
Solving the trouble of goods crossing the border is actually very simple. You just need to say hello to the person responsible for border cargo inspection in advance.
Just by talking, he could earn an extra 200,000 Hong Kong dollars a month. Mike, who was standing by, had a look of deep envy in his eyes. He also wanted such a benefit.
After the dinner, Liu Xu personally escorted the three people to their respective cars and shook hands with them tightly before saying goodbye.
Tonight's party not only established his friendship with Slade and Lohank, but also strengthened his connection with Mike, and laid a solid foundation for the future development of his transportation company.
As for Mike's envious mood at the dinner party, Liu Xu naturally felt it, but in order to create a sense of gap, he ignored it.
Giving out benefits once and for all will only wear out the friendship. But if you create a gap first, let it brew over time, and then give out continuous benefits, the friendship will become unbreakable.
--------------------
After resting for a night in Dongsheng Building, he showed up at Ruby's door at eight o'clock.
Seeing Liu Xu, Ruby excitedly hugged him and wrapped her arms around Liu Xu's waist: "I thought you didn't want me anymore!"
He gently lifted Ruby's body, scratched her nose, and explained, "I was discussing cooperation with a few police friends last night. The meeting ended too late and I was afraid of disturbing you, so I rested over at Tuodi."
"How could I not want you? Look, I came to your house to find you as soon as I woke up, little fool."
This explanation and the intimate action instantly made Ruby's face flushed. She felt Liu Xu's restlessness while nestling in his arms, and replied with a blushing face: "My swelling has gone down."
You're not made of iron, how can you get better so quickly?
Liu Xu put the woman in his arms on the sofa and responded unhappily: "In your mind, am I Liu Xu the kind of man who only cares about his own happiness?"
Ruby thought Liu Xu was angry because of what she said, so she quickly shook her head: "No, A Xu. I am..."
She lowered her head, twisted the corners of her clothes with her hands, and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "I'm afraid you will feel uncomfortable."
Seeing Ruby's little woman's attitude, Liu Xu gently touched her lips and responded softly: "I know you are doing this for my own good. I am not angry."
"But I came to your house so early not only because I missed you, but also because of other things."
"Ah? What's the matter?" Ruby stared at Liu Xu with her big eyes.
"First of all, the issue is about your residence. As my woman, Liu Xu, it will be very unsafe for you to continue living in Wan Chai."
"I have made enemies with many people. If they knew of your existence, they might want to take revenge on me by kidnapping you. You have to move to Yau Tsim Mong District so that I can better protect you."
"The second is your future development. There may be more than one woman around me, and I believe you don't want to be a vase, right?"
Liu Xu's words were very straightforward, but Ruby seemed to be lost in her own world, staring blankly at his face without saying a word.
He was somewhat familiar with this symptom, having seen it many times in his previous life. A magical species that could be coaxed into losing its mind with just a few sweet words from the object, and constantly fill in its own imagination - the love brain.
Fortunately, Ruby is a barren woman, so her income is not high. Otherwise, she would have been cheated and lost both her money and her life.
But it was also because she was a barren woman and had indeed undergone surgery not long ago to be able to breathe, otherwise he would not have appeared at Ruby's house today.
Ruby finally came back to her senses from the sweetness, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes, including surprise at Liu Xu's straightforward words and thoughts about her future.
She bit her lips lightly, as if digesting everything Liu Xu said.
"A Xu, I understand what you said. I'll listen to you and move!"
"As for the future development you mentioned, I'm actually... I'm a little confused. I don't want to depend on anyone, but I don't know what I can do." Ruby's voice was soft, but it revealed a hint of confusion.
"Go to university for further studies. Not only can you learn professional knowledge, but you can also broaden your horizons."
He gently held Ruby's hand. "It's mainly about financial accounting knowledge. They are the lifeblood of the company. I need someone I can trust to help me manage the purse strings."
Ruby's eyes sparkled, as if Liu Xu's words had ignited her hope. Her tone became firmer: "Since knowledge of finance and accounting can help you, I will learn these two."
Hearing the determination in Ruby's words, Liu Xu smiled gently. Then he started the moving process.
