I want to be a giant of Hong Kong Island

Chapter 258 [Family Fixed Assets]

Just after the New Year in 1956, Wu Guangyao typed out an application and sent it to the Hong Kong government;
That is Wu Guangyao's request to buy land on Barker Road (Victoria Peak Section) to build his own property.

At this time, Wu Guangyao owned as many as seven properties and lands, two in Deep Water Bay, two in Repulse Bay, one in Causeway Bay, one in Shek O Peninsula, and Old Tang Lou (the ring of the island). Only No. 79 Deep Water Bay and the old Tang Lou are completed properties, and the rest are just land that has not yet been developed.

However, this amount of land and property could not satisfy Wu Guangyao's appetite at all, so this time Wu Guangyao planned to buy a piece of land in Baijia Road and two pieces of land in Mid-Levels.

Anyway, now that I have enough money, my influence is naturally enough, so I'm not afraid of those foreigners looking for trouble!
At this time, all the people living in Baijiadao were British nationals. Although Ho Tung claimed to be Chinese, he was a British citizen worthy of the name.

Wu Guangyao's report caused an uproar among the British circles on Hong Kong Island.

Some British people living on the top of Victoria Peak have put pressure on the Hong Kong government, declaring that this is the last piece of land reserved by the British on Hong Kong Island. Should they give it up?

It's a pity that Wu Guangyao is not a vegetarian. He didn't hide his application report at all, but leaked it inadvertently. For a while, the media on Hong Kong Island reported it one after another, looking like he was watching a good show.

In other words, the people of Hong Kong Island know that Wu Guangyao wants to live in Barker Road and Victoria Peak!

"The God of Wealth wants to live on the top of the mountain. I think it's a bit confusing. Those British people are not so easy to talk about!" Passerby A
"What are you talking about? With God of Wealth's contribution to Hong Kong Island, living in Baijiadao is more than enough! Besides, God of Wealth is a lord conferred by the British royal family, and he is a real nobleman; even London is trying to woo, Will the Hong Kong government disagree?" Passerby B
"I think the Hong Kong government will definitely agree, and now all the people on Hong Kong Island know; if the Hong Kong government does not agree, then what is the meaning of the equality they advocate? Isn't this a blatant tear of face with the Chinese?" Passerby C
More and more people started discussing this matter, and it became a hot topic on Hong Kong Island, which Wu Guangyao did not expect.

The Hong Kong government is also beginning to feel the pressure. Senior officials like the governor and the third department definitely support Wu Guangyao's move in, but they are not the competent department of the Housing Department after all, and generally do not exceed their authority.

The Housing Department has been pressured by a group of British people this time, so it has not made a decision for a long time!
"It's better sooner rather than later. Ask the housing department to give an approval and don't make a big deal out of it. But since Mr. Wu is rich, it's only natural that the land price should be a little higher, and the Hong Kong government can count as an income." Governor Ge Lianghong knows that this matter cannot be dragged on, so as not to cause antagonism between Hong Kong and Hong Kong in Hong Kong society, and the gains outweigh the losses.

"Yes, I'll go to the Housing Department and tell them!" the assistant turned and left after finishing speaking.

"The media is building up momentum and judging the situation. This Chinese businessman's wings are already hardened!" Ge Lianghong couldn't help but sigh.

Ge Lianghong thought that his term of office was still two years away, so it would be better to make friends with this Chinese;
After all, the stability of Hong Kong Island is more important than anything else, and this Chinese has surpassed Ho Tung two or three years ago, becoming the leader of the Chinese in Hong Kong Island, and his influence has surpassed Ho Tung.

Barker Road is located at the top of Victoria Peak, below the fog line.

"Mr. Wu, which piece of land do you value?" A British official from the housing department said flatteringly.

Why do you say it is flattery, because Wu Guangyao stuffed money!
The British officials of the Hong Kong government in this era are seriously corrupt.

Well, like it's pretty corrupt anyway!

If you think about it, someone else might come to be this official with this purpose.

"Well, I like it! Come on, I'll take you to draw the line!"

The piece of land that Wu Guangyao valued, if Wu Guangyao remembers correctly, should be No. 31 Baijia Road in later generations;
There are four villas ABCD at No. 31 Barker Road in later generations, among which house AD belongs to Da Liu (the one in Saiguan Golf).

Naturally, Wu Guangyao wanted to buy all the surrounding vacant land, a total of 21000 square feet.

When the housing department reported the land price, even Wu Guangyao's worth was a bit stunned, and the first thought in his mind was that he was slaughtered as a fat sheep.

The unit price was 100 Hong Kong dollars per square foot, which was twice as high as the residential land price in Kowloon. Wu Guangyao paid 2 million Hong Kong dollars with heartache;
Wu Guangyao's idea of ​​buying two more pieces of land in the mid-level area disappeared immediately, and he should wait until 1958 to make a move!

I heard that land prices and housing prices fell by 70% at that time, which is very suitable for bargain hunting!
The land in front of Wu Guangyao was bought when the land price was cheap. The unit price ranged from 6 Hong Kong dollars per square foot to 20 Hong Kong dollars per square foot. Unexpectedly, this time the Hong Kong government deliberately deceived itself and made Wu Guangyao feel miserable.

Who told you to toss it!

Heaven and Earth Nightclub has developed to 11 stores, 7 in Hong Kong Island, 1 in Macau, 1 in Star Island, 1 in Malaysia and [-] in Thailand.

Over the years, Tiantianrenjia nightclub has earned a lot of wealth, 30% of the wealth is used for expansion, 20% of the wealth is used for raising four halls and management, and 50% is flowed into the account of Leidun Security.

The cooperation between Leidun Security and Wu Guangyao's company is a money transaction, not free, and this is also to deceive people's eyes and ears.

And the amount of money that the Heaven and Earth Nightclub flows into Leidun Security every year is very generous.

How to deal with the money, Brother Fang asked Wu Guangyao from the very beginning, and Wu Guangyao said, "Take it!"

Those few short words revealed sincerity, which moved Brother Fang very much.

In the end, Brother Fang kept a small part, and most of the funds were used by him to buy antiques and famous paintings and sent to Wu Guangyao's home.

Brother Fang knew that it was not convenient for the young master to take that kind of money, so he exchanged it for the young master with antique calligraphy and paintings.

In 5 years, I spent 500 million Hong Kong dollars sporadically to buy antique calligraphy and paintings;

Of course, if these antique calligraphy and paintings are to be stored in the 21st century, their value must be multiplied by 1000 times (the appreciation of antiques multiplied by the appreciation of the purchasing power of money).

"Young master, several lines have been opened up in the mainland, and we will buy antique calligraphy and paintings from there in the future!" Brother Fang said.

"Well, try to buy legitimate antique calligraphy and paintings, and avoid saying hello to those gold-touching captains!" Wu Guangyao urged.

Naturally, Wu Guangyao hoped that it would be legal and compliant to buy from those families passed down from his ancestors.

"I know, I'll try to avoid it!"

Wu Guangyao nodded, he just said that, but he won't take it too seriously!

"Brother Fang, you should also buy more properties with your savings. These things are equivalent to fixed assets, and they will appreciate steadily. They are the best wealth left for your children!" Lijia, known as the leader of Causeway Bay, is talking about rent collection.

"Well, I listen to the young master. Anyway, I don't know how to do business. If I have some money, I will buy properties and wait for the appreciation!" Brother Fang will never doubt his young master's words. How many people in Hong Kong Island want to listen to the young master? I haven't heard these suggestions yet!
Spreading out a pair of calligraphy and painting, Wu Guangyao's hands trembled a little. This is Qi Baishi's famous painting. According to the price of later generations, this one is probably worth 2 million yuan; this time, he bought three pieces from the Qi family in Kyoto!
According to the profits in the sky and the earth, I am afraid that he can still buy antique calligraphy and paintings worth tens of millions, at least tens of thousands of pieces.

No, we have to build a villa quickly to store these antique calligraphy and paintings.

Wouldn't it be a great thing to open a museum in the mainland and open it to the Chinese for free after the actual 21st!
Even if you take one-tenth of it, the museum can open it!
In March, Li Cui gave birth to a unicorn son named Wu Xian'an for Wu Guangyao.

After staying in the hospital for a week, Wu Guangyao followed Li Cui back to Lanwan Villa, which is the home of Li Cui and Wu Guangyao.

Lin Yueru hugged Wu Xian'an, and said enviously: "You have both sons and daughters, you are very lucky!"

Obviously this sentence said that Li Cui's heart was lost, and Li Cui's face showed happiness.

"Miss can also regenerate!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yueru looked at Wu Guangyao with thoughts in her eyes.

Wu Guangyao laughed and didn't express his opinion, apparently he had no intention of getting Lin Yueru pregnant again;

Lin Yueru gave Wu Guangyao a white look, she obviously knew what her man was up to, he just wanted to torture herself to his heart's content.

"Hmph, pervert!" Lin Yueru said dissatisfied.

Li Cui understood in seconds, her face turned red immediately, she seemed to have remembered something!
For Li Cui, Wu Guangyao really intends to let her be anonymous in Hong Kong Island, and has no idea of ​​letting her start a company, so that she can be a charter woman with peace of mind in the future.

In this regard, Wu Guangyao is quite selfish. He thinks that if Li Cui becomes the boss of the company, he will be widely reported by the media, which will obviously have an impact on him.
