Chapter 227 Going to the Port City
This trip to the Pearl of Hong Kong is truly a must.
She had a general idea of how to design Lu Kai's private club, but she wasn't entirely sure how to actually do it.
So she had to go to the port city.
We need to go out and see the world, and learn something.
The port city wasn't a place you could just go to whenever you wanted. Two days later, Huo Zheng's secretary, Qin Mo, came to Bai Zhenzhu and asked for her documents to apply for a travel permit.
Bai Zhenzhu was also busy, as new customers came to her to pick up goods.
She never expected that she would actually start a wholesale business.
Although wholesale requires a large amount of capital and involves tied-up funds, it also brings in money quickly; you can earn tens of thousands of yuan by reselling a single batch of goods.
The shipment of white pearls had always gone smoothly, except for one accident where a package was lost.
However, Zhou Ting resolved the issue before Bai Zhenzhu could even appear.
The lost package was found quickly, and when Bai Zhenzhu went to pick up the goods later, she found that the people at the freight station were quite polite to them.
Bai Zhenzhu asked Zhou Ting how he resolved the issue, and Zhou Ting said he contacted the leaders of those people.
“They probably thought I was someone they didn’t want to mess with, someone who was a troublemaker, so they were quite polite to us,” Zhou Ting said.
February has passed in the blink of an eye.
Bai Chenglei and Bai Chengxiang's families transferred a total of over 130,000 yuan in dividends, and Bai Zhenzhu currently has 1.4 million yuan in her bank account.
Chaoyang Hot Pot Restaurant is very popular and is always full during the Spring Festival.
The clothing stores are doing very well, and these two stores pay a considerable amount of tax every month.
However, the clothing store invested all its money in purchasing goods.
Lin Pei-Chun's business is now quite large. She has opened a clothing factory with someone and is planning to hire celebrities to shoot advertisements and create a brand.
Xia He invested money in her garment factory, making her a minor shareholder.
She shipped out a wider variety of goods, and Bai Zhenzhu found the quality of the clothes to be quite good.
Lin Peijun is a woman with high standards; the clothes she sells are all stylish, of good quality, and expensive.
The supply is stable, and they are not hesitant to buy white pearls.
Many customers like the goods from Guangzhou, and they also sell very well in the surrounding counties and cities.
There is never a shortage of wealthy people anywhere, at any time.
Bai Zhenzhu currently has nearly 1.5 million yuan tied up in payments for goods.
After this period of time, Zhou Ting was able to pick up and ship goods independently.
The renovation of Yunxiang Clothing is nearing completion, and it will be ready to open for business once she returns from Hong Kong.
After settling things at home, Huo Zheng called to say that he would be leaving for Gangcheng in three days.
Zhong Ting was very enthusiastic and called specifically to tell her what to prepare and what kind of clothes would be appropriate.
Three days later, early in the morning, Huo Zheng's secretary, Qin Mo, drove his boss, Jian Shuhang, and Zhong Ting to Teapot Lane to pick up Bai Zhenzhu, and they went to the airport together.
At that time, there were no direct flights from Chengdu to the port city.
Qin Mo dropped his boss off at the airport and then drove back home; he didn't go with him.
This was Bai Zhenzhu's first time flying.
However, she has seen the world now, and she does what others do, without showing any fear along the way.
She was still a little nervous when the plane took off and instinctively grabbed the armrest.
Huo Zheng, who was standing next to her, handed her a mint:
"My ears hurt during takeoff; eating candy helps."
"Thank you." Bai Zhenzhu took the candy, peeled it, and put it in her mouth.
This interruption eased my fear somewhat.
Fortunately, she doesn't get airsick; she only gets nervous when the plane encounters turbulence.
At times like these, those around would gently comfort them:
"It's okay, this is normal, it will be fine in a bit."
When facing the fear of the unknown, it really makes a big difference if someone is there to help.
It was evening when we arrived in the port city.
After getting off the plane, the four of them took a taxi into the city.
The port city was ablaze with neon lights at night, even more bustling than the Yuan City that Bai Zhenzhu had seen after the millennium.
Jian Shuhang and Zhong Ting, familiar with the place, led everyone to a four-star hotel and booked two rooms.
Huo Zheng and Jian Shuhang shared a room, while Bai Zhenzhu and Zhong Ting shared a room.
Zhong Ting explained to Bai Zhenzhu:
"It's safer and cleaner to stay in a star-rated hotel like this. There's also a place to exchange Hong Kong dollars downstairs. We'll go exchange them tomorrow."
Bai Zhenzhu smiled and said:
"it is good."
The two rooms were next to each other. Huo Zheng told them not to go out, and that he would have the hotel deliver dinner to their rooms.
Bai Zhenzhu and Zhong Ting entered the room. This star-rated hotel was indeed different; it was very large.
The room also has a reception area, the TV and sofa are new, and the carpet is very clean.
Zhong Ting pounced onto one of the beds:
"Finally arrived, I'm exhausted."
White Pearl was very excited and opened the window to look outside.
Zhong Ting lay in bed and said:
"Sister Bai, do you think Hong Kong is more prosperous than our Chengdu?"
Bai Zhenzhu smiled and said:
"Yes, but Chengdu will definitely become very prosperous in the future, and our country will get better and better."
Moreover, Hong Kong will return to China in a few years and become part of the motherland. It's really exciting to think about.
Zhong Ting came to Bai Zhenzhu's side, put her hands in her pockets, and said:
"You're just like my brother, practically a patriotic fanatic. You're always saying that the country will develop better and better and that there will be more and more opportunities."
"By the way, he's just like you, he keeps urging us to buy a house, saying that house prices will rise in the future and more and more people will buy houses."
"Isn't he talking nonsense? Everyone's houses are allocated by the government. Take my sister Huaying, for example. She hasn't even had a chance to live in her newly bought house. House prices are going up? Who's going to buy it?"
Bai Zhenzhu thought of the major events that had occurred in this era and said with a smile:
"Maybe I'll have to buy my own house in the future?"
"What Mr. Huo said makes a lot of sense. Those who are allocated houses are all formal employees. Self-employed people like you and me can only buy them ourselves."
"More and more people are coming to the city to work, and the demand for housing is increasing. A lot of houses will definitely be built in the future, and housing prices will continue to rise."
Zhong Ting nodded:
“Now I understand. My brother was talking in too much slang, always talking about policies, which I didn’t understand.”
Bai Zhenzhu thought to herself that people like Huo Zheng, Ge Zehua, and Guo Yongliang were the ones who kept up with the times.
By keeping pace with the times, one can naturally reap the benefits of the era.
It was getting late, and Shuo Shuo should already be asleep, so Bai Zhenzhu didn't call home. She planned to call early the next morning.
A little while later, the waiter knocked on the door and brought over dinner.
Huo Zheng ordered four bowls of seafood noodles. It was Bai Zhenzhu's first time trying it, and she thought it tasted very good.
After eating, Bai Zhenzhu and Zhong Ting washed up and went to bed.
Bai Zhenzhu woke up late the next day, and the unfamiliar environment made it hard for her to fall asleep.
The hotel provided breakfast, and the four of them met up and went to the restaurant.
Bai Zhenzhu also took the opportunity to look at the restaurant's design and learned a lot.
During the meal, Huo Zheng said:
"We can do some sightseeing in the morning. Xiaobai, would you like to go for a walk on the beach?"
