Chapter 1013: Return

Boss Bao finally moved out of the British suite in the Peace Hotel where he had lived for nearly seven years, went to an office building to work, and began his career as a brokerage firm owner.

This time, with greater prestige, he became famous in one battle and was renowned among groups related to the domestic stock market. As long as he didn't have his next failure, his name was still very loud. After all, turning defeat into victory, and it was a stock market battle with hundreds of millions in funds, A-Bao was now the number one person.

The benefit of gathering funds was one aspect, but just talking about his actions in the stock market and his guidance of the retail investor group was quite terrifying. He publicly commented on a listed company, and the stock price fluctuation of this company within a day would be at least ten or eight. Relatively speaking, this was actually the biggest gain of his battle.

After all, if retail investor sentiment is guided well, it is truly overwhelming. No matter how much capital an institution has, it cannot withstand the vast ocean of retail investor friends.

Boss Bao rode the wind and rose, while Boss Qiang returned to zero in half a day.

In March after the New Year, Qiang Mujie was taken away by the police from his apartment in Shanghai. Two months later, he was sentenced to three years and four months in prison and fined for the reason of misappropriating funds in violation of regulations.

The arrogant and arrogant Qiang Mujie still ended in this way. After he comes out, he might not worry about food and clothing, and even live far better than the vast majority of people, but it is impossible for him to stand in front of the stage and point out the country again.

For Wang Yan, however, not a single splash was raised.

His life was still so simple and unadorned, after all, there were people doing all kinds of businesses, and they were doing quite well. The company was already an aircraft carrier, and even if there were some small problems, it wouldn't affect the whole, continuing to sail steadily. If it wanted to turn, it would take a long time. If there was a hole in the bottom of the ship, it would take a long time for the ship to sink. As long as the strategy was correct and internal self-cleaning ability was guaranteed to a certain extent, there would basically be no impact.

The seasoning company and the clothing company could be considered thriving; these were businesses that had been done long ago. In terms of seasoning, the barbecue seasoning formula of that year had long been made public, and even if Jinbao's mother guarded it strictly, it was useless. When there were only one or two people before, it was very strict. Later, there were more people and more procedures. Although the salary was still not low, relatively speaking, it was also shared, and it could not reach the exaggerated degree of the past.

If there were some problems in one or two procedures, and then staring at the raw materials, and then finding someone to match the ratio, some time would be exhausted. In fact, for this kind of thing, the ratio is not strict. If there are some mistakes, the taste is not much different.

As for Hongyun Clothing, an exaggerated point that makes people feel is that most of the stores are self-owned properties. In hundreds of cities across the country, most of the thousands of stores. After all, they are all in the prosperous areas of various cities. Although the housing price has not risen much in the past two years, it is not a small number for thousands of stores.

And the clothes sell well. Cheap is definitely not cheap, but it is not expensive to the point of being unaffordable. It belongs to a choice of consumption upgrade. The style is still kept novel until now, and they are fighting lawsuits about plagiarism design all over the world.

On Li Li's side, after the New Year, her belly gradually began to grow. She got a sum of money from Wang Yan and started the business of children's products unhurriedly and unhurriedly, mainly milk powder, diapers, and other infant and toddler products. She intended to take advantage of these few months to make the products first, and then use them directly for her own child, which would be more reassuring. In this respect, she is someone who knows how to spend money.

Seeing Lingzi's branches are also gradually opening more. She is doing high-end dining, and the main areas for development are also the eastern coastal areas, as well as the capital, the place of first goodness, all of which are good for big cities. It highlights a chain brand effect, high-end but not too high-end.

In terms of actual level alone, the best cook is the little monk. The chefs of the branches are all brought out by the little monk, or they have good craftsmanship themselves and have been strengthened and trained by the little monk. To say how high the level is, it is definitely not. It can only be said that it is not bad. What is guaranteed is the service on the level and the taste of the dishes.

And on Xiao Jiangxi's side, the hotel opened, and it is doing quite well. She has already started looking for a suitable place in Beijing, and is fully prepared to communicate well with Wang Yan. In fact, Xiao Jiangxi has always been very hard-working. She might not be found once a month, and she has to recuperate for several days after such a communication. Who can say that she is not working hard?

As for Miss Wang...

"Boss, I'm back." Miss Wang arrived at the small shop of pork chop rice cake, and took a satisfied long sniff of the shop's atmosphere, "I've wanted your pork chop rice cake for a long time."

"Oh, Miss Wang, Wang Laoban, rare guests, rare guests, it's really been a long time." The boss of the pork chop rice cake, who was sitting and reading, stood up with a smile and warmly welcomed, "You are busy people, it's really not easy to come once. Sit, sit."

"It's all busy work, still the same." Miss Wang sat down happily by the window.

Wang Yan, who was smiling, followed behind, raised his head to the boss to greet him, opened two bottles of almond dew, inserted straws, and then sat down beside Miss Wang.

"During the time I was away, the changes were quite big." Miss Wang sighed, "Yesterday, on a whim, I went to Huanghe Road when I came back, but the True Garden closed, the Jin Meilin also closed, and it's not as lively as before. Jingxiu's telephone booth doesn't have many people making calls."

"People are getting richer and richer, and mobile phones are getting smaller and smaller, and cheaper and cheaper. Before, Huanghe Road was a famous place, but now it's worse, but the demand for making calls must still exist."

No matter how rich Shanghai is, it cannot achieve one mobile phone per person at the current stage, otherwise there would not be so much infrastructure for public telephone booths.

Miss Wang nodded: "You are right. I heard that you gave Boss Bao funds before, had a fight with others in the stock market, and even put people in prison?"

"What you said is quite interesting. But it's almost such a thing. At first..."

Wang Yan smiled and patiently told her about the heart-stopping stock market struggle and some things that happened later.

"So, Boss Bao is now a brokerage firm owner? Is he still doing foreign trade?"

"I remember when I first met Seeing Lingzi, she told me that it was by playing the stock market with one hand and doing foreign trade with the other that Bao Zong came to be. I reckon that's what should be done; walking on two legs, after all. I last saw him before the New Year, and come to think of it, it's been a few months now. Oh, right, he also said that once your clothes are made, you should go to his place to stock them."

"I won't go, I want to open a direct-sale store."

Wang Yan asked with a smile: "How is it this time? Any gains?"

"It's okay, there are some orders that need to be handmade, and I don't earn much. It's not easy to build a brand, especially the clothes I make cost thousands or tens of thousands each, so I can only do it slowly. Wait until I hold a fashion show and then see, find some celebrities or something."

"Take your time, don't worry."

"Anyway, you are not afraid of losing money. Didn't you just say you earned 100 million before?"

"Yes, yes, yes, you can rest assured." Wang Yan nodded with a smile.

He could only nod, after all, he could only give feedback on money. These women, including Xiao Jiangxi, if possible, had no hope of finding such a man, but they had different requests.

Some want money, some want feelings, some are lonely, some are moved, and some belong to normal communication, and so on.

"How are Seeing Lingzi and the others?"

"Not bad, Night Tokyo has opened three branches, two here, one in Shenzhen, and the store in Beijing is being renovated."

"That's doing very well, unlike me, I've been losing money all along."

Wang Yan reached out to help her tidy up the broken hair on her forehead: "You are the most money-saving. The stores where Seeing Lingzi opened branches were all bought by me."

'Pa' sound, Miss Wang slapped his hand away: "Then I have to spend more money too. I want a direct-sale store, and I will open one in big cities in the future. The decoration must be elegant and luxurious. When organizing fashion activities, I also have to spend money."

"Let the accountant give you money tomorrow." Wang Yan was straightforward, without a word of nonsense.

Soon, the boss served the pork chop rice cake, and Miss Wang ate with her mouth bulging, fragrant.

Suddenly, she said: "I feel like it's not as interesting as before."

"Is the pork chop rice cake not delicious?"

"That's not it, I love pork chop rice cake the most, and I won't feel annoyed even if I eat it for a lifetime. It's just that suddenly I feel it's not as lively as before."

"Maybe it's because you are on your own now."

"Hmm~" Miss Wang thought seriously, "Maybe. How is the 27th?"

"Jin Ke was transferred away, and a new male section chief came."

"Hmm? Isn't it Mei Ping?"

"Mei Ping resigned last year and also came out to do clothing herself."

Miss Wang looked at Wang Yan suspiciously: "Did you say hello?"

"Not worth it."

Wang Yan shook his head, "She couldn't do it herself. She reported you because she wanted to be the section chief herself. Later, Jin Ke didn't leave and worked for another half a year. Where did she have any hope? She couldn't be promoted, and she wasn't liked in the section, and she had no connections to make a transfer, so naturally she left."

"I'll ask Master later. I should congratulate her if she transferred. Although she was originally transferred back to take the lead, she should have been transferred away after so many years."

The two people's conversation was very jumpy, the gap between domestic and foreign, the imagination of the future, the memories of the past, and so on, but Miss Wang was chatting very happily.

Outside the window, there was heavy traffic, flashing neon lights, and the two people in the shop sat by the window chatting and laughing...

Wang Yan's simple and unadorned monotonous life is still continuing. But in fact, relatively speaking, Miss Wang is right, it is indeed not as lively as before, because everyone is busy with their careers.

The originally noisiest Night Tokyo is now quiet. Every time Wang Yan goes over, what he hears is Teacher Ge's sighs and his nostalgia for the noisy past.

Although Seeing Lingzi is still here, she also has to go out to see the situation of the branches occasionally, and there are always times when she is not on Jinxian Road. Linghong is working as a manager of a branch, and her salary is not low, and the treatment is naturally good, so she doesn't toss back and forth, just lives near the branch, and only occasionally comes back to Jinxian Road to sit for a while.

Tao Tao Tao Tao has a son, and he is quite diligent in serving his wife and children at home, and he also has his seafood business to manage, so he is busy instead, and only occasionally runs to Night Tokyo to eat and drink.

It is also because of this that only Teacher Ge is left as an idle person. He had long been used to the liveliness for more than three years, so naturally he is not used to it now. Without an opponent to quarrel with, he inevitably has to nag.

Wang Yan rarely goes to Night Tokyo anymore. After all, there are too many places he can go. Sometimes it is lively, sometimes it is deserted. He has always been used to it, but he doesn't have too many feelings.

As for Huanghe Road, it is only when he thinks of it that he will stroll around. Chat with Jingxiu, listen to the excitement that is becoming less and less interesting, and eat a meal by the way...

The return of Hong Kong is undoubtedly a big event. The streets are full of national flags, and people are gathering to celebrate and witness history everywhere. It was also on this day that Boss Bao, who was doing better and better, came to Hong Kong.

After tidying up, following the bright neon lights, he came to a restaurant overlooking Victoria Harbour.

With complicated thoughts all the way, A-Bao finally saw the back of Xuezhi... who had been hanging in his heart for many years.

She still had short hair and was wearing a long dress, graceful and charming. But A-Bao's complicated thoughts suddenly became a mixture of five flavors. Because beside Xuezhi, there was also a little girl with her legs crossed looking at the excitement outside the window.

Hearing the movement, Xuezhi turned her head suddenly and saw A-Bao, who was still so spirited. She laughed, her voice still so gentle: "Long time no see, Boss Bao."

A-Bao was stunned for a moment, then nodded in response: "Long time no see."

He looked at the little girl who turned her head together, very cute and exquisite, "The child is very cute."

Xuezhi smiled and patted the little girl's head: "Call someone."

"Hello, Uncle, I am Wang Xue, Mom and Dad both call me Little Xue'er."

"Hello to you too, how old are you this year?"

"Three and a half." The little girl was not afraid of strangers, smiled sweetly at A-Bao, and while talking, she was fiddling with her white and tender little hands, one hand leaving three fingers, the other hand fiddling back and forth, as if she was trying her best to show the 'half' to A-Bao.

"Wouldn't it be better if you said four?" Xuezhi patted her stubborn daughter's hand that was still fiddling, "Okay, let's eat."

"Oh." The little girl pursed her lips, smiled at Boss Abao, and then wiggled her bottom to climb onto the stool.

"Very cute." A-Bao repeated it again, then sat on the side, wanting to speak, but suddenly frowned.

Xuezhi asked puzzled: "What's wrong?"

"I remember, that Hong Kong person was surnamed Liu, right?"

"Old calendar." Xuezhi laughed, "Actually, when I returned to Shanghai in 1987, I had already divorced."

"Then this is?"

"In 1990, I was working as a waiter in the catering department of the Peninsula Hotel, and I met a person who came to Hong Kong to start a company. He pulled me to do business, and we were together. Your business is doing quite well, and you are both in Shanghai. Even if you don't know him, you should know him. His name is Wang Yan, and Hongyun Clothing is his."

"Wang Yan?"

Xuezhi raised her eyebrows: "It seems you know him."

In an instant, A-Bao's brain flashed past the things Tao Tao Tao Tao told him about Wang Laoban having a woman in Hong Kong, and also flashed past the things about Wang Laoban's woman in Hong Kong giving birth to a daughter...

He looked steadily at the little girl who was fiddling with her hands, for a long time, until Xuezhi asked 'What's wrong', which pulled him back to reality.

He let out a long breath, rubbed his face hard, and smiled bitterly: "To tell you the truth, I know Wang Yan, and come to think of it, I've known him for seven years. When he came to Hong Kong to start a company back then, I knew it, but I didn't expect that the partner he mentioned would be you."

Xuezhi opened her eyes in surprise: "Really?"

"Why would I lie to you." A-Bao shook his head with a bitter smile.

"That's really quite a coincidence. Call him to eat together tomorrow. It's been so many years, I really don't know that everyone knows each other."

"Is Wang Laoban here too?"

"I don't know where he is taking pictures." After the surprise, Xuezhi didn't feel anything, and said it naturally.

"What a coincidence..." A-Bao sighed again.

He had no other words, his heart was empty, his head was also empty, except for sighing at the coincidence, he didn't know what to say.

The agreement he had remembered for ten years, when they met again, seemed to have lost all meaning. His self-struggle for so many years had become a joke.

This long time no see was very different from what he thought, but it seemed there was no difference, just like men want to find women, and women also want to find men. It was just that coincidentally, both of them were people he knew, and they knew each other.

"The world is really small..."

Boss Bao changed his sigh again...

On an unknown street in Hong Kong, people were moving, and Wang, who was wearing big shorts and a floral shirt, laughed and pressed the shutter, fixing the moments of countless people... ===== CHAPTER 1014 =====
