Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Chapter 483 The Hong Kong rich man who was ripped off

While Zhang Yuliang was desperately explaining, Governor Youde and his wife came to Bao Zixuan. Because of John Madden's leadership, other wealthy people felt that they might not be able to get out of the Governor's Mansion if they did not take action. Everyone had no choice but to lose money to avoid disaster. They all began to actively respond to the call and purchase war bonds on a large scale.

This made Youde feel that the time has come. When the time comes to announce the purchase amount of Heiyun, let's light up the fire a little more and let others see that even Bao Zixuan is so cooperative. There is no point in you still stretching.

After searching around, I saw that Mr. Bao was actually chatting with a beautiful woman. He thought that he would embarrass the two of them in the past, and madam diplomacy was also a method that was effective in both political and business circles.

Youde said to Zhang Youran: "Beautiful lady, can you lend me your male companion and let my wife accompany you!".

Zhang Youran didn't expect that the governor would be so polite to her. Needless to say, it must be because of the richest man's face. It seems that Bao Zixuan is stronger than he thought in Xiangjiang, and even his father Youde would not give him such face here.

Zhang Youran: "Of course, it is our honor to be invited by His Excellency the Governor."

At this time Mrs. Youde said: "I didn't expect this beautiful lady to speak English so well. It's really a surprise."

Zhang Youran: "Madam, my name is Zhang Youran. You can call me Andy. I just graduated from Cardiff University in the British Empire."

The Governor's Wife: "That's such a coincidence. I also graduated from Cardiff University. So we are still alumni, and we will have more exchanges in the future. Now let the men talk about men's matters, and we will go sit there."

An excellent governor's wife is definitely more important than a secretary. There are many things that require the wife to take action when she comes forward, and the wife must fully cooperate. Often an excellent wife will play an unexpected role.

After seeing his wife taking Zhang Youran away, Youde said to Bao Zixuan: "Sheng Bao, many rich people have purchased war bonds at this time; can we announce the amount and quantity purchased by Heiyun Group?"

Bao Zixuan: "You are the protagonist today, and I will obey your arrangements in everything."

Since there is no way to refuse, it is better to accept happily. It seems that the rich people of later generations are right. When wealth reaches a certain level, the money may not belong entirely to you.

Youde: "Don't worry, I won't let you suffer. I know you want to vigorously develop Tin Shui Wai. I can transfer all the Hong Kong government's land in the Tin Shui Wai area to you, or it will be regarded as compensation for you at the previous price."

Bao Zixuan didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise, although the price of land in Xiangjiang would fall to the bottom after Huaying negotiated for a while. However, the land in the Tin Shui Wai area was directly taken back by the Hong Kong government and was not sold during this real estate crisis.

Now being able to sell it to myself at the previous price is already very honorable. If we obtain land from the Hong Kong government, we will purchase the land before integrating with Heiyun Group. The entire Tianshuiwei area belongs to the Heiyun Group, except for a small portion of land owned by the Zhang family and Li Chaoren.

As for these two companies, they believe that they can still get it if they are willing to spend some money during the real estate crisis. At that time, no one will object to changing the name of Tin Shui Wai.

Bao Zixuan: "Then thank you very much, Your Majesty the Governor. I believe you will not regret this decision. In the future, the Tin Shui Wai area will definitely be the technology, education and manufacturing center of Hong Kong, and it will be one of the most famous places in the world."

If this happened in the UK, not only Youd, but also the Queen and Prime Minister would probably jump up with joy. But this is Xiangjiang, and it may no longer be under the jurisdiction of the British Empire in a few years. Is it possible for Bao Zixuan to move the company to part of the British mainland? Even if the government provides certain subsidies, it would be very cost-effective, but I don't know if they are willing.

Many people saw Youde coming over to chat with Bao Zixuan, and everyone knew that big news would be announced soon.

Sure enough, everyone was not disappointed. You Dezhan said in the center of the stage: "Thank you Mr. Bao Zixuan of Heiyun Group for his support of the cause of the British Empire and his optimism that Britain can defeat Argentina. Just now, Mr. Bao Zixuan decided to purchase a 1 billion pound War bonds express our care and love for the frontline soldiers with practical actions."

After saying that, he took the lead in applauding, followed by Yoder's applause. The people below all applauded to show respect, and Bao Zixuan had no choice but to wave to everyone.

It can be said that when Governor Youde announced that Bao Zixuan had purchased 1 billion pounds of war bonds, the people below felt that Bao Zixuan was crazy. Otherwise, even if you have money, you won't spend it like this. Moreover, Bao Bao's shrewdness shouldn't be like this. Is there some hidden secret that they don't know about?

At the same time, when Youde announced that Bao Zixuan had purchased 1 billion pounds of war bonds, Zhang Youran had already returned to him. It was the governor's wife who sent her here in person. This is basic etiquette and the greatest respect for the guests.

At this time, not only Bao Zixuan, but also Zhang Youran became the focus of people's attention. After all, he had just had a long chat with the governor's wife, and now he was standing next to Bao Zixuan. The relationship between them was self-evident.

When the people below saw that Bao Shaofu was spending so much money, they all began to increase the amount of their purchases. Although he is not as wealthy as Bao Zuofu, he can't lag too far behind.

Even if you can't show your face in front of the Queen, you still have to give the British side a good impression. I haven’t seen that even the richest man Bao is flattering the British, so what are we waiting for?

What Huo Yingdong was worried about still happened, but fortunately, the purchases by a few familiar people were not large. Otherwise, we will suffer a big loss tonight. Now it seems that if Xiangjiang is not returned, the British can come over to harvest wool at any time. We must think of a countermeasure.

Zhang Youran now looks at Bao Zixuan as if he were looking at a monster. Wheelock just bought 15 million pounds of war bonds, which put the company in crisis. Of course, there is still a crisis even if you don't buy it, but it just doesn't break out so quickly.

Now Heiyun directly purchases 1 billion pounds. What kind of gratitude is this? The market value of many large companies in Hong Kong is not that high. It can be said that Bao Zixuan used the funds that can acquire a large company to purchase war bonds. When the time comes to get the money back, he may not be able to see it.

Looking at Zhang Youran's expression, Bao Zixuan smiled and said, "Miss Zhang, are you okay?"

Zhang Youran: "Thank you, Mr. Bao, for your concern. I'm just too shocked. Mr. Bao also studied in the UK. He should know that the UK is still repaying the debts it owed during World War One and World War II! Then why are you so generous? , buying so many British war bonds.”

Bao Zixuan: "When you have too much money, you can't control it entirely by yourself. Think of it as a waste of money to eliminate disasters!"

"The economy in the UK is not good, and war is extremely expensive. We can only attack the autumn wind from other places. Xiangjiang is a piece of fat. Everyone wants to take a bite. Of course, they will not let it go easily. Especially when it is related to this kind of thing. The critical period for the fate of the country requires the collective efforts of the entire British people. When the British economy cannot well support the war, it must find a way from other places. Currently, they still rule Xiangjiang, and Heiyun Group is the most profitable company. Of course it’s impossible to stay out of it.”

Zhang Youran heard a lot of helplessness from Bao Zixuan's tone. No matter how much money he had, he had earned it through hard work. No one wanted to invest in projects that were destined to have no returns.

Unexpectedly, Bao Zixuan is still a man who can bend and stretch, but he will have to get to know him better in the future. Seeing Bao Zixuan preparing to leave, Zhang Youran said: "Sheng Bao, can you give me your contact information? I can ask you for advice if I don't understand anything in the future."

Knowing that this was an opportunity, Zhang Youran was a little nervous at this time. He was waiting for Bao Zixuan's reaction to see if the two of them were destined to meet again.

As expected, she was not disappointed. Bao Zixuan took out a silver card and said, "This is my private number. If you have time, you can call me and we can go out together."

In order to reflect his uniqueness, Bao Zixuan specially made hundreds of name tags out of titanium alloy. No matter who gets it in the future, it will be treasured. Maybe it will be auctioned in an auction house in a few years. It will probably become a good story by then.

Under everyone's envious gazes, Zhang Youran put away the business card and said, "As long as you don't find me annoying."

Bao Zixuan: "That's it."

After saying that, he left the Governor's Mansion. He didn't want to be visited by everyone like a big tomcat, so it was better to leave first. If someone else asks for his phone number, he may need to think twice, or simply refuse. After all, Zhang Youran was the one who threw himself into this world. Bao Zixuan also wanted to see if the fate could continue.

Bao Zixuan left because he purchased a sufficient amount of war bonds, but compared to other Hong Kong rich people, they were not so lucky. As long as they had not paid out, or had not paid enough, they all stayed to continue attending the banquet. Yoder wants them to understand that sometimes you have to make choices.

Fortunately, no one wants money or life. Under pressure from all aspects, everyone purchased a certain amount of war bonds. It can be said that the rich people in Hong Kong were severely ripped off during this Anglo-Afghan war. Many people really can’t get over it for a while.

Seeing this situation made Zhang Yuliang not hold a grudge against John Madden so much. If he hadn't been the first to buy, with Wheelock's reputation, he would never be able to get away easily with only 15 million pounds. Youde would definitely let you do well in front of the British Empire. Show off.
