0176【Wealthy family】

"Master, there is a gentleman named Du Yongxiao outside. He brought a gift to visit you, Master, and the eldest master!"

Uncle En, the housekeeper, stood respectfully at the entrance of the hall and reported.

As one of the most wealthy families in Hong Kong, the Huo family has a very good status. Especially in the late 1950s, it was also during this period when the Huo family was targeted by the British Hong Kong government. Many important businesses were in a state of suspension, especially the emerging real estate industry, which was almost done by

Chop halfway.

The old man of the Huo family sat upright on the sofa in the living room, reading the newspaper. Hearing this, he raised his head and looked at his eldest son.

Young Master Huo was watching TV happily. Seeing his father's eyes, he hurriedly stood up and said, "Oh, that's it. He called him to say he wanted to wish you a New Year. I didn't think it was a big deal, so let him come over."

"He is that Inspector Hua?"

"Yes."

"Doing a local business with you?"

"Yes."

Boss Huo looked disdainful, "I said that the world is dangerous and no one can trust it. Besides, the other party is still a bad guy."

"But, my father, you have also said that all the three religions and all the people can make friends with each other, and there are many dog-slaughtering people for justice."

Boss Huo glared at his son: "I remember clearly what should be learned if I shouldn't learn what should be learned!"

Young Master Huo immediately shut up.

"Okay, if you come in the future, you should tell me in advance that our Huo family is a wealthy family and you need to be polite. What if there are guests here and you can't receive them? What if there is something inconvenient in the family? You have to do things to do?

Think more, don’t act casually!”

"Okay, father!" Mr. Huo lowered his eyebrows and looked smooth.

Boss Huo then ordered the butler En to "Please come in."

"Yes, Master!"

...

The Huo family lives in a garden villa on Kerton Road, Mid-mountain, Hong Kong Island.

The entire villa covers an area of ​​more than 20,000 square feet, which is calculated based on square meters, which is about 2,000 square meters.

As a luxury residential area in the Mid-mountain area, the cheapest villa here costs more than one million, and the more expensive ones are also available.

Du Yongxiao has been to the home of Liu Fu, the Chief Inspector of the General Hua. Liu Fu also lives in the mid-mountain area, but it is just a "slump" in the mid-mountain area. Although it is also a villa, it is as small as a sparrow. Compared with the one in front of you, it is simply a witch.

.

Boss Huo bought this villa ten years ago. All the neighbors of him were famous Chinese merchants in Hong Kong, ship king Bao Yugang, film tycoon Shao Yifu, Dong family, He family, and some ghosts.

For example, the Shi Huaiya family, the Jiadaoli family, etc.

For these tycoons and heroes, people like Liu Fu and Lei Luo are basically all of them who spend money to raise wolf dogs. If they need it, they can spend hundreds of thousands or millions to raise an obedient one again.

It is precisely because of this that in the opinion of Big Boss Huo, it is inevitable that he is a little unhappy that Master Huo has such an identity and actually makes friends with an Inspector Hua.

Du Yongxiao stood at the door of Huo's house, smoking a cigarette slowly.

Zhuang Dingxian was waiting for him in the car.

Datouwen stood behind Du Yongxiao with a gift and complained: "The Huo family is too big, and they have been informing them for a long time, but no one has come out."

"There are many rules for wealthy families, do you think you are visiting a department store?"

"Our master invites you in!"

While speaking, the old housekeeper came out and said.

"Have you been working!"

Du Yongxiao winked at Datouwen, who handed the gift to Du Yongxiao, while he was waiting outside.

Du Yongxiao brought the gift and followed the old housekeeper in, stopped and turned a few turns before he arrived at the door of the living room.

A woman in a house wearing white clothes and black Tang trousers and combing her big braids saw the guests coming and hurriedly opened the door.

"Thank you!" Du Yongxiao was about to step into the living room, and took slippers from her combing girl and put them at Du Yongxiao's feet.

Du Yongxiao smiled awkwardly, took off his leather shoes, changed into slippers, and then brought in the gift.

"Axiao, you are here!"

Master Huo was very happy to see Du Yongxiao.

Du Yongxiao nodded at him and looked at Dabo Huo sitting upright on the sofa. He was thin and tall with a skull. He looked at Du Yongxiao with his eyes fixed on Du Yongxiao, as if he wanted to see through Du Yongxiao.

"Hello, Mr. Huo!" Du Yongxiao greeted Boss Huo with a decent smile.

Boss Huo then pointed to the sofa, "Please sit down!"

Du Yongxiao handed the gift in his hand to the combing girl next to him: "I don't know what to give when I came in a hurry. This is the roasted sweet potato I bought from Wanchai Wharf. I just treat it as a small gift for you!"

Roasted sweet potato?

Master Huo rolled his eyes almost. Ah Xiao was too stingy.

The old housekeeper and the self-combed girl had a weird expression.

Most of the guests who have been visiting the door have brought great gifts, especially during the Chinese New Year, there are many people who give great gifts. For example, Du Yongxiao brought roasted sweet potatoes to give gifts, which is unique.

Boss Huo originally didn't care about Du Yongxiao's gift, but suddenly heard the roasted sweet potatoes in Wanchai and his eyes lit up, "But the roasted sweet potatoes of Wanchai Laosun's?"

"Yes, it's Mr. Sun's. He had already closed the stall during the New Year, so I ran over to find him. Then he took it upon himself and baked it out."

"Haha, take it!"

The self-combed girl brought the gift in surprise.

When I opened it, I found a warm box with hot charcoal under the box, and it was steaming.

I opened the warm box with cotton cloth, but there were eight huge and plump baked sweet potatoes with honey and oil.

Boss Huo couldn't wait to take one and spread it open, take a bite, close his eyes, chew, and savor it.

The servant next to him was stunned.

What's wrong with the master?

Mr. Huo was also surprised, wondering why his father was so incompetent?

Only Du Yongxiao knew that it was all because of these roasted sweet potatoes.

In his previous life, Du Yongxiao read many biographies of Big Boss Huo. Among them, what impressed Du Yongxiao the most was that Big Boss Huo was running on a boat when he was young. Every time he went to sea, he passed by the god of death. Every time he survived the disaster, he would eat it.

A roasted sweet potato with an old grandson.

For him, Lao Suntou's roasted sweet potatoes not only fill his stomach, but also a psychological suggestion that he will have good fortune in the future if he survives the disaster.

This is true. As his "Flying Ship" became famous all over the world, the Huo family was also supported by him, and now it is ranked first among the top Chinese business owners, as famous as the Bao family, Dong family, Xu family and others.

But since he got ashore and developed, he has never eaten baked sweet potatoes in Wan Chai. One reason is that his identity is not allowed, and the other is that he has no time. Even the people around him don’t know that he has this hobby.

But today, Du Yongxiao packaged Wan Chai roasted sweet potatoes as "gifts" and gave them to him, which made Boss Huo's appetite tremble.

After eating half of the sweet potato in one breath, Boss Huo then satisfied and asked the servant to wrap the remaining half, take it away, and look at Du Yongxiao: "The sweet potato you gave is very good!"

Du Yongxiao smiled slightly: "As long as you like it."

Boss Huo pointed to the sofa again: "Sit down! He is so scheming at a young age, it is worth sitting!"
