Chapter 546 Let’s All Go to the Sea
After greeting Lou Zhenhua and the others, He Yuzhu bent down and looked at his eldest granddaughter.
“Then did you thank your uncle?”

“Thank you very much, my uncle said you’re welcome, and invited my mother and I to go to Hong Kong Island with him, grandpa and grandma.

Grandpa, is Hong Kong Island fun? I haven’t been there yet!”

“It’s fun. Weiwei, do you want to go to Hong Kong Island with Grandpa and Grandma?”

“I’ll go wherever Mom goes!”

“Haha, good boy, go find Grandpa. Grandpa knows you’re back, and he and Grandpa are frying some fruit for you at home. Do you want to eat some?”

“I want to eat it. I want to eat the silver thread rolls made by my great grandfather. Grandpa, give me the big bear. I will go find my great grandfather and my youngest grandfather right now.”

Seeing He Nianwei holding the big bear and running towards the middle courtyard with her short legs, He Yuzhu first talked to Yan Bugui, and then took Lou Zhenhua, He Yushui and others to the middle courtyard.

As he walked, he said to Lou Jinhong,
“Are you coming back now?”

“Hehe, uncle, now the policies in the mainland are becoming clearer and clearer, so I dare to come back now.

By the way, uncle, where is He Qing? My eldest cousin is back, but she didn’t come out to greet me. I remember she was very attached to us brothers when she was little.”

“I’m in school next door. I’ll be back after class.”

When Lou Jinhong heard that He Qing was teaching, his eyes lit up immediately when he thought of her major.
“Uncle, I remember He Qing was studying opera, right? Are there many pretty female classmates in school?”

“Go away, do you think this is Hong Kong Island?
The mainland is not like your place. If you mess around, you will be shot. Besides, you just had a son, why are you still messing around like this?”

“Ask, I’ll ask, it’s not enough to just look!”

When I returned to the central courtyard and walked into the main room, I saw He Daqing holding a silver thread roll with chopsticks and feeding He Nianwei with a smile on his face, while He Jianguo was wearing an apron and pulling noodles on the stove.

Seeing He Jianguo, Lou Jinhong couldn’t wait to shout,

“Uncle, uncle, I’m Lou Jinhong, I’m back!”

Hearing Lou Jinhong’s shout, He Jianguo, who grew up with him, was obviously stunned for a moment, then looked over with a smile.
“My goodness, you’ve been gone for nearly 20 years and didn’t even come back to see us. How cruel!

Why did you come back alone? Where is Jin Hu?”

“I can’t leave Hong Kong Island. I’m helping my parents deal with things at home. So they sent me back as a representative to attend Yuejin’s wedding. By the way, where’s the groom?”

“Busy,
The Development Committee is a key department of reform and opening up. Yuejin is very busy every day. We helped to prepare for the wedding.
Look, my sister-in-law is now taking our Wei Hong to discuss the details of the wedding with Sister Zao.”

……

He Yuejin’s wedding was nothing more than eating and drinking, nothing much to say. After the wedding, he didn’t even go on a honeymoon, which was becoming popular in this era, and just went back to work.

However, He Nianwei was kept in Peiping by He Yuzhu and his wife because she had reached the age to go to school.

After the wedding, the neighbors started to build their businesses, but before their projects were implemented, the crackdown began.

Seeing carloads of people being taken away, the neighbors were really shocked. They thought they had returned to the time 10 years ago. They didn’t even dare to talk about business.

It was not until a year later, in 1984, that people in factories and government agencies were seen taking unpaid leave, and then activities began to pick up again.

1984 was a turbulent and exciting year.

Many people in later generations said that 1984 was the “first year of the company” and the “first year of going into business”.
In addition, in September 1983, the authorities issued a “Notice on Seriously Rectifying the Work of Recruiting Children of Retired and Resigned Employees”, which clearly stipulated that replacement work would no longer be allowed.

“Let’s all go into the sea” has become the most bewitching temptation among the people.

The first people to start doing business in the courtyard were Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong, followed by Yan Bugui who instigated He Daqing to open a restaurant together.

Of course, Yan Jiecheng and his wife were not to be outdone and also opened a Sichuan restaurant in the city.

The neighbors made money, and their lives became more prosperous day by day.
Yan Jiecheng spent the whole day competing with his father Yan Bugui in the courtyard, trying to prove that his father had done something wrong in the first place. Yan Bugui was not to be outdone and followed Liu Haizhong’s example by hiring a nanny to take care of the couple’s daily life. He looked down on Yan Jiecheng at all.

The same thing happened to the couple Liu Haizhong in the backyard. As soon as they had money, they controlled their sons tightly.

It’s a pity that the good times don’t last long,

Xu Damao is now the head of the publicity department of the steel rolling mill and is the confidant of Director Yang. However, Liu Haizhong, as an old subordinate of Li Huaide, still got on board with him.

In the subsequent reselling activities, Xu Damao was kicked out.

As a result, Xu Damao was just like in the TV series, and Liu Haizhong was directly wiped out, making Liu Haizhong’s several years of hard work go to waste.

But all this has nothing to do with He Yuzhu.
Since the publication of the Joint Declaration in 1984, he has frequently traveled to Hong Kong Island.
Firstly, 4 or 5 years had passed, and his initial investment income had become very huge. Every time Lou Zhenhua saw the stock numbers jumping, he felt a little scared and wanted to return the control to He Yuzhu.

Secondly, the huge returns from the investment made He Yuzhu very influential among the celebrities in Hong Kong Island.
The State Council asked him to come here to stabilize the hearts of the celebrities.

“Zhu Zi, you have hundreds of millions of US dollars in your stock account. Every point fluctuation is tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

How can you sit still like this?

In the end, are you born into a capitalist family or am I born into a capitalist family? “

Hearing Lou Zhenhua’s question, He Yuzhu tilted his head and thought for a while, then reduced the disk on the computer, drew a line at the bottom, and then said with a smile,

“Dad, you have to look at it this way. I invested more than 100 million Hong Kong dollars at the beginning, and the cost is basically close to negative now.

Even if Goldman Sachs forces me to close my positions due to my losses, I won’t feel bad.
Besides, I have always been making money, so why should I be afraid? I can just let the snowball roll.
It’s just some money, and it’s not particularly useful to me personally.”

After looking at He Yuzhu’s line and the high stock price, Lou Zhenhua smacked his lips and changed the subject.
“By the way, Mr. Huo and Mr. Bao know that you are coming to Hong Kong Island. They want to hold a welcome reception for you and asked me to sound you out. How about it? Are you interested in attending?”

Hearing Lou Zhenhua talking about this, He Yuzhu agreed without thinking.

“Okay, the higher-ups just released the Joint Statement, I have to meet them and calm down the big businessmen in Hong Kong.
Dad, please ask Mr. Huo and his team to invite more celebrities from Hong Kong Island. I need to have a good talk with them.
Maybe we will have to invest heavily in Hong Kong Island.

Get ready, go to Goldman Sachs and see if you can mortgage the property you live on. If that doesn’t work, withdraw half of the money from your stock account.”

Hearing He Yuzhu saying that he wanted to withdraw money to invest in Hong Kong Island, Lou Zhenhua nodded.
“You are now very famous among the celebrities in Hong Kong Island.

In a few years, the assets of the real estate company have increased several times compared to 79 because of Xiao Ri’s real estate, and the stocks are even more amazing. Although it is leveraged by 10 times, the thousands of times of returns have made many people want to learn from you.

I believe that as long as you make a huge investment in Hong Kong Island, there will definitely be countless people following suit.
Hong Kong Island will certainly become more prosperous and settle down from the panic after the announcement.”

“Haha, Dad, before I came to Hong Kong, the leaders of the Executive Yuan also said so. As long as I can maintain the stability and prosperity of Hong Kong, I will be credited with a great achievement.

Besides, even though Hong Kong is still in a recession, investing in Hong Kong now does not necessarily mean you will lose money.”

“Then I’ll wait and see.

You go ahead and do your work. I’ll call Mr. Huo and the others to tell them about the welcome reception.”

As He Yuzhu is now famous, he has done a good job in stabilizing Hong Kong Island. A large number of Hong Kong Island businessmen followed him to invest, which directly drove up the real estate prices in Hong Kong Island, and all walks of life began to prosper.
At the same time, due to the signing of the Plaza Accord, Xiao Rizi’s assets began to enter a period of explosive growth, making him earn a lot of money.
In 1989, He Yuzhu brought Lou Xiao’e to Hong Kong Island to make final preparations before harvest.
Looking at the numbers rolling in the stock account and the amount of assets sorted out in advance, Lou Xiao’e looked at He Yuzhu excitedly, as if she saw the couple making a killing in their daily life.
“Zhu Zi, what should we do now? Should we sell all the real estate we own?”

Hearing this, He Yuzhu shook his head, apparently he already had a plan in mind.
“What are you selling?

It is not cost-effective to sell the house now. Let’s go to Goldman Sachs to sell all the stocks first, and then pay off the loans from the past few years.
Then I bought a property in Hong Kong Island, and finally found a small bank to mortgage it. Then I continued to buy properties, continued to mortgage them, and then rented out the house, holding the US dollars and waiting for the opportunity.

The bubble of the daily life is very big, and they can’t hold on for long.”

Hearing He Yuzhu’s plan, Lou Xiao’e took a deep breath. She was no longer a novice who knew nothing. She knew that if her husband’s plan came true, with the couple’s current wealth, one or two billion dollars would definitely not be enough.

And this is simply a case of taking advantage of nothing.

If the stock market collapses, the exchange rate will certainly collapse as well. At that time, you will only need to pay back a fraction or even a tenth of the money to redeem the mortgaged properties.

More importantly, even if it doesn’t come true, the couple won’t suffer any loss given their comfortable life and the prosperous property market in Hong Kong Island.
It’s a sure win business.

Thinking of this, Lou Xiao’e became even more excited. Hundreds of billions of dollars is enough to rival a country. She wondered how much this money could do for Daxia.

“Zhu Zi, hurry up, let’s go to Goldman Sachs now to complete our layout.”

“I know. Why rush? It can’t run away.”

The fact is just as Yuzhu imagined, or just as the history is going.
In October 1990, the Nikkei index fell from its highest point of 10 to 3.9 points, and the yen exchange rate was also extremely tight.
While He Yuzhu, who was shorting the market, made a fortune, he also redeemed his properties in Tokyo and Hong Kong Island at a small cost and regained control of his cash cow.

Of course, He Yuzhu’s actions naturally made everyone in the community hate him to the core, and he directly exposed the incident in the international media.
He Yuzhu had no choice but to exchange all the foreign currencies into RMB.
Fortunately, the State Council got so much valuable foreign exchange out of thin air and gave old comrade He Yuzhu a lot of preferential treatment.

Not only did they allow him to collaborate with the Academy of Sciences and the School of Engineering on major scientific research projects, they also allocated large tracts of land in Baoan, Songhu, and Beiping for him to invest in industry.

This made Lou Xiao’e extremely happy.

“Pillar,
Let’s not talk about the economic contribution we made by building houses and setting up factories in Baoan, Songhu and Beiping.
Just by doing research together with the Academy of Sciences and the School of Engineering, even if now we only provide salary subsidies to scientists to retain these talents, we will be able to leave our names in history in the future.

I will hand this over to Xiaomin and Hexiao, and urge Nianwei and the others to study hard at home.
The He family will be a family of scholars in the future.”
