As the two were talking, they heard the housekeeper come to report that someone was visiting.

Du Chuan raised his eyebrows. Who is so well-informed? Is he staring at me? He came here just after I arrived?

However, the housekeeper’s next words made Du Chuan realize that he was overthinking.

“It’s Mr. Zhao Mingde from next door who came to visit with his family. They have been here several times before, but you were not here at that time.” said the housekeeper.

Since that was the case, Du Chuan couldn’t just hide and had to stand up to greet him.

When I arrived at the door, I saw a family of four, the man was in his forties, the woman was in her thirties, and there were two children, a boy and a girl, about thirteen or fourteen years old.

“Mr. Zhao, right? Hello, I’m Du Chuan.” Du Chuan smiled and walked forward to shake hands.

Zhao Mingde was obviously stunned when he saw Du Chuan. He really didn’t expect Du Chuan to be so young.

He had some understanding of his neighbor’s situation, of course, it was limited to normal information within the circle.

But I also know that this is a powerful person.

Otherwise why would he come to visit several times.

Although those who can live here are not ordinary people, most of them are not worthy of Zhao Mingde doing this.

He thought Du Chuan was at least in his thirties or forties, but he looked only about twenty-three or twenty-four.

Although he was somewhat surprised by Du Chuan’s age, Zhao Mingde quickly recovered and said, “Hello, Mr. Du. I apologize for my unsolicited visit.”

“Haha, we are all neighbors, so it’s good for us to be close to each other. It’s just that I seldom come here. I heard that Mr. Zhao often comes here before, so I was really a bit neglectful.” Du Chuan said with a smile.

After some pleasantries, Zhao Mingde also introduced his wife and children.

Du Chuan greeted them one by one and then took them in.

After they sat down, they continued to exchange pleasantries, but there was actually nothing much to talk about.

During the chat, Du Chuan also learned that Zhao Mingde was engaged in foreign trade business.

“Hong Kong’s economy has been transforming in recent years, so foreign trade business should be doing well, right?” Du Chuan asked casually.

Zhao Mingde smiled and said, “It’s not bad, especially with the reform and opening up of the mainland, our business has improved a lot.”

Hong Kong is backed by the mainland, and especially now that the mainland has just started its reform and opening up, it lacks many things.

Therefore, many exported goods need to pass through Hong Kong.

This provided Hong Kong’s foreign trade business with a huge source of goods, so business was naturally booming.

After Zhao Mingde finished speaking, he asked casually, “I heard that Mr. Du is in the financial business?”

Du Chuan thought for a moment and said, “I guess so.”

Zhao Mingde didn’t quite understand what this meant. What did “can be considered” mean?
However, he did not intend to dig deeper, and instead asked, “The financial business should be pretty good now, right? And it’s not like us, who seem to make a lot of money, but actually earn it through hard work.”

“You guys in finance can get tons of money just by moving your fingers.”

Du Chuan looked at him with amusement when he heard that. Why did this guy’s words sound so sour?

Is this something appropriate to say when meeting for the first time?

If Du Chuan hadn’t heard any sarcastic tone, he would have suspected that this guy did it on purpose.

Du Chuan changed the subject, “Judging from your accent, are you from Shanghai?”

Many people in Hong Kong came from Shanghai, so it’s not surprising.

Zhao Mingde nodded and said, “Yes, but when I was in my teens, I followed my father to Hong Kong, and I have been in Hong Kong ever since, and I have never been back.”

Du Chuan asked, “Have you ever thought about going back to take a look?”

Zhao Mingde hesitated for a moment, then smiled helplessly, “I don’t have this idea for now.” Du Chuan didn’t want to ask more questions. It was just a casual chat anyway, and he didn’t bother to care.

Zhao Mingde obviously didn’t want to talk about this, so he also changed the subject.

This time he came here just to get to know Du Chuan and didn’t plan to do anything else.

But after all, having such people as neighbors, it is normal to subconsciously build relationships and get close to them.

They stayed here for lunch at noon and then left as a family.

Even if I want to ask for something, I won’t say it when I just met you, as that would seem too snobbish.

“Do you need me to investigate their situation?” Su Weiming asked.

Du Chuan waved his hand and said, “No need, he’s just a neighbor.”

He doesn’t have any paranoia, so there’s no need for him to be like this.

But after thinking about it, he still gave a warning, “Let the people in the villa pay attention. If A-Zu has too much contact with him, tell me.”

With Ji Jianzu’s mind, it is obvious that he cannot beat these people for the time being.

In addition, there is still the impact of the last smuggling incident. Du Chuan is really worried that Ji Nianzu will repeat the same mistake.

Although this is unlikely, it’s always good to be on guard.

It was around eight o’clock in the evening when Ji Nian Miao and Ji Nian Zu came back.

Looking at their rosy faces, it was obvious that they were very happy staying at the He family this time.

“Do you want to wait for two more days? There’s no rush for the convenience store, and it’s a good opportunity for you to adapt to the situation here.” Du Chuan said.

He was somewhat tempted to commemorate his ancestors, but he quickly shook his head and said, “No, I’ll talk about it when I have time.”

“Besides, everyone is busy, and I can’t keep disturbing them.”

Du Chuan nodded and said, “Okay, let’s go over and take a look tomorrow.”

“it is good.”

After that, the two of them went back to rest, and they got up very early the next morning as well.

The car and other things have been prepared long ago.

They came all the way to Causeway Bay. There are several Ink Convenience Store stores in Causeway Bay and Wan Chai.

The main reason is that these two places are now the most prosperous and lively, and there is a good market for convenience stores.

“Hello, I’m the person in charge here, Luo Wen.” A man in his thirties stepped forward carefully and introduced himself.

When Luo Wen saw Du Chuan and the others, there was also a look of surprise in his eyes, but he quickly recovered.

He is from Hong Kong, but went abroad to study very early and joined Ink Convenience Store.

When Ink Convenience Store started preparing to start business in Hong Kong, he was sent over to be in charge of this business.

Originally Luo Wen thought that he was being exiled, but he didn’t expect that just two days ago, he received a call directly from the headquarters, and it was not just the headquarters.

It was Mr. Wade, the general manager of Ink Convenience Store, who personally gave him instructions over the phone.

There was only one instruction, which was that someone would go over to inspect in a few days and arrange for people to go in and work.

But there was no specific statement, it just said that everything was subject to that person’s arrangements.

Luo Wen didn’t know what was going on, but he knew that the person who could make Wade call him personally was obviously not an ordinary person, so he had to deal with it carefully. (End of this chapter)
