Chapter 461 Buying a Tenement Building
The tenement buildings in Hong Kong are a mixture of commercial and residential use, with shops on the ground floor and residences upstairs.
In addition, Hong Kong is a colony, and many of its exterior styles are a mixture of Chinese and Western architectural styles, with designs such as arcades and terraces.
The arcade is supported by brick pillars and extends beyond the sidewalk in front of the tenement building.
The floors are generally 3 to 4 stories high and are relatively short.
There are basically no elevators in tenement buildings, only stairs connecting the floors.
Many old tenement buildings do not have toilets, and the rooms are divided by wooden boards and are relatively small in size.
Due to the small size of the rooms, the population is often densely populated, and eight or nine families may live on one floor of a tenement building.
The tenement buildings on the Tsim Sha Tsui Pier are quite old as the earliest Chinese gathering area in Hong Kong.
Because there are many tenement buildings in Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok and Yau Ma Tei, there are also many shops under the tenement buildings, and the business is very developed. These three areas are collectively called Yau Tsim Mong.
In the eyes of Hong Kong gangs, Yau Tsim Mong in Kowloon is one of the most lucrative places, and the only place that can be compared with it is Causeway Bay in Hong Kong Island.
The tenement building that Wang Yuanchao and Mi Xilu came to see this time was three buildings that were mortgaged to HSBC. After the landlord went bankrupt, the buildings were taken away by HSBC.
Not far from Tsim Sha Tsui Pier, close to Mong Kok and Portland Street, the value of this land in the future is unparalleled, every inch of land is worth a lot of money.
If Wang Yuanchao buys these three tenement buildings now, he can make a fortune in the future when he demolishes the houses and builds high-rise buildings.
After Wang Yuanchao looked at the three tenement buildings inside and out,
Said to Michelle:
"Miss Lu, I plan to buy these three tenement buildings and collect rent from them.
But I plan to use the building on the far right as a residence for my employees.
So you need to clear out the tenants on the second floor and above.
any questions? "
Michelle had an innate sense of superiority towards ordinary Chinese people. She nodded indifferently to Wang Yuanchao's question and said:
"Dear, no problem, the price of these three tenement buildings is the same, 20 Hong Kong dollars each.
These two tenement buildings that do not need to be cleared out can be transferred today.
How about transferring the ownership of the tenement building that needs to be cleared out in a week?"
You have to know that in Hong Kong at that time, the Chinese here naturally feel inferior to the white people. Michelle didn't think there would be any trouble if HSBC came forward to clear the rent.
Wang Yuanchao knew this situation in his heart. Wang Yuanchao was Chinese, and it would be easy to cause trouble if he came forward.
It was to avoid trouble that Wang Yuanchao specifically mentioned letting Missy show up.
"Okay, then we'll go back and transfer the ownership of the two neighboring tenement buildings first. After you've cleared out the tenants of this tenement building, I'll come back to take possession of it. How about it, as soon as possible?"
"No problem, honey, a week is just to be on the safe side.
Normally, the building can be cleared in three days."
"Okay, I'll trouble you then."
"No trouble, I'm here to serve you."
"Okay, now that we've finished looking at the house, I'll treat you to a seafood dinner?"
"Okay, where are we going to eat?"
"Let's go to Taibai Seafood Restaurant in Typhoon Shelter?"
"Yes, the seafood here is very famous throughout Hong Kong. I like the zebra mantis shrimp there. The mantis shrimp is as thick as an arm and tastes great.
The black and white pepper crab is also my favorite.”
Wang Yuanchao said with a smile:
"Okay, let's go. I'll satisfy you with whatever you want to eat today."
"Go~go~go~let's go, let's go."
Taibai Seafood Restaurant is one of the largest floating restaurants in the world today.
It is made up of a 31-meter-long and a 45-meter-long pleasure boat connected to each other, and is also the predecessor of Jumbo Floating Restaurant.
The interior of Taibai Seafood Restaurant is decorated in a luxurious palace style, from the lobby to the living room, porch, pavilion, and everything is meticulously crafted.
Whether it is the colorful decorations, exquisite carvings, or dazzling lights, they all show the royal style and create a luxurious and noble dining atmosphere.
The golden dragons on both sides of the main entrance are gilded and lifelike, and the halls are named after famous places in the palace, such as Dragon Tower, Phoenix Pavilion, Golden Throne Hall, Hall of Supreme Harmony, etc., making people feel as if they have traveled back to the ancient palace feast.
There is a large seafood pool called "Fish Viewing Waterside" on the ship, which stores more than 60 kinds of fresh seafood. The lobsters and zebra shrimps here are the most popular.
What surprised Wang Yuanchao the most was that while they were sitting at the table waiting for the food to be served, they could feel the ship shaking noticeably, as if they were in the embrace of the sea.
This experience, which is completely different from restaurants on land, makes Wang Yuanchao feel very novel and exciting.
While tasting the seafood, Wang Yuanchao admired the sea view outside the window. The rolling waves and the gentle sea breeze made him feel particularly comfortable.
Seafood is all about freshness. The cooking methods in Xiangjiang are similar to the Cantonese seafood methods in the previous life, both of which focus on showing the original flavor of seafood to the greatest extent. In addition to steaming seafood, there are also braised, pepper salt and other methods.
Wang Yuanchao and his wife had braised seafood and salt and pepper zebra shrimp.
The meal was delicious and the meat was tender. Wang Yuanchao was amazed and felt relaxed all over.
After a seafood feast, Wang Yuanchao drove Michelle to HSBC and paid 40 Hong Kong dollars to buy the two tenement buildings.
Wang Yuanchao returned to his company, took the design drawings that he and the designer from Lv Yuanxiang Architectural Office had revised repeatedly, handed them to Ouyang Yuanfang, and said:
"General Manager Ouyang, the design drawings for materials, construction and shape have all been completed.
You can contact the construction company in Xiangjiang.
So that they can make a preliminary quotation based on our design drawings.
Then we will pick out the three companies with the lowest bids, and then we will discuss which company to award the project to.”
"Okay, boss, I'll get in touch right away."
"Okay, are the bags and threads for the premium rice ready yet?"
"Boss, these can be delivered the day after tomorrow. They will be sent directly to the rented warehouse according to your instructions."
"Okay, when the goods are delivered to the warehouse, remember to notify me.
After the packaging bags arrive, I will go out to sea and bring back a batch of goods.
Once the goods arrive, the company’s sales work will start.”
"Okay, boss, the marketing department has been practicing sales pitches every day these days.
I have divided the company's 9 salesmen into different regions.
At that time, cold calling sales and salon promotion will be launched simultaneously.
These days the company has been giving employees special rice for tasting.
The company's sales department is full of confidence in the company's products.
I have been ready to do this for a long time.
Once sales start, we are very confident that we can capture the mid- to high-end market in Hong Kong.”
"Okay, then everyone take your positions."
