Chapter 388: Lao Mou Visits Hong Kong

Being praised in person by the richest man in Hong Kong, Mou Qizhong even had the urge to bow down to him - "I have been wandering for half my life, and I only regret that I have never met a wise master. I hope you will not abandon me."

This is not an exaggeration. From the fact that he aspired to become a journalist when he was young and traveled between Wuhan and XJ to realize his dream of going to university after failing the college entrance examination at the age of 18, we can see that this person has ideals and ambitions.

After failing to go to university, Mou Qizhong simply returned home and worked as a boiler worker in a glass factory, where he worked for fifteen years. During this period, because he was too passionate about integrity, he liked to give advice, which also showed that he was unwilling to be ordinary and eager to stand out.

After he was released from prison, he behaved himself for a few years, but finally he could no longer hold back, so in April this year, he co-founded the "Wanxian Sino-German Store", which was also Mou Qizhong's first business venture.

It has to be said that Lao Mou's business talent really fits the template of the protagonist in online novels perfectly. He was the first to launch the "three guarantees" and "four generations" sales strategies. The Sino-German Store's net profit in the first year reached 8 yuan, and caused a huge sensation in Wanxian.

Because of this success, Mou Qizhong finally discovered his talent for business, and his ambition to make a lot of money overnight grew.

Now that he had received Fang Hexuan's affirmation, in addition to being excited and complacent, he also wanted to become the other party's disciple so that it would be easier for him to take advantage of the situation in the future.

Unfortunately, the person he was facing was not an ordinary person, but a time traveler who had cheated and seen his entire life.

Fang Hexuan noticed that Mou Qizhong wanted to say something, but he didn't give him a chance. Instead, he raised his hand to stop him.
"Don't say anything. It's not easy for you to come to Hong Kong. You must be tired after the flight. I'll have someone take you to your hotel first and welcome you and your third uncle tonight."

Mou Qizhong was even more excited this time. He really felt the thoughtfulness and courtesy of Mr. Fang. He nodded solemnly and said:
"Okay, everything will be arranged by Mr. Fang."

Fang Hexuan made a phone call and said to his third uncle:

"Uncle, come back with me to 12 Barker Road later. My mother should have prepared lunch."

Mou Qizhong didn't say anything extra. It was really not appropriate to bring an outsider back when the siblings were reunited.

A male assistant knocked on the door and came in. Fang Hexuan said to Mou Qizhong gently:
"Mr. Mou, if you have anything to do, you can just ask my assistant to arrange it. Don't worry, Third Uncle will come and meet you after dinner."

After saying that, the male assistant led Mou Qizhong out. Fang Hexuan looked at his watch and it was already 12 noon. He stood up, greeted his third uncle, and the two of them left the office together.

Back at No. 12, the third uncle tactfully handed over the local specialties he brought from his hometown, and then teased Ergouzi for a while before the family sat down to eat.

You Bingwen was not going home for lunch, so there were only Fang Hexuan, his mother Lu Qiaoling and his third uncle in the restaurant at this time.

Fang Hexuan did not interrupt the brother and sister from chatting about family matters. At first, he just listened while eating.

Lu Qiaoling asked the servant to serve her brother a bowl of fish maw and shark fin soup, and then said earnestly:
"Third brother, you only told me on the phone that you were coming to Hong Kong. I also asked my family, but they didn't know what you were going to do. Now, don't hide it in front of me."

My third uncle had been here at the beginning of the year, so he was not unfamiliar with the place. He took a bite of the lobster meat and felt his mouth full of seafood flavor. When he heard my eldest sister asking questions, he had to chew a few bites quickly and then swallowed it all.

"I came to check out the market, sister, you don't know how in short supply Hong Kong products are in mainland China."

Lu Qiaoling glared at him unhappily and interrupted:
"Do you need money? Ah Xuan told me that smuggling goods from Hong Kong to the mainland is speculation and profiteering. If you are caught, you will be sentenced." The third uncle may have heard too many people admonishing him in this way. He curled his lips slightly in disapproval, but said calmly:

"Sister, don't worry. Qi Zhong and I have already cleared all the links of customs clearance. It will be fine. As long as I get the goods to the mainland, I can count the money without any effort!"

Lu Qiaoling frowned and asked doubtfully:

"Who is Qi Zhong?"

The third uncle looked at Fang Hexuan, and Lu Qiaoling understood and asked her son:

"Ah Xuan, do you know?"

Fang Hexuan wanted to roll his eyes. This third uncle was too unreliable. He could have just said no, but had to drag me into this.

"I just met the friend who came to Hong Kong with my third uncle. I have already arranged for him to stay in a hotel."

Lu Qiaoling turned to her third uncle and asked:
"What's your origin? Don't let anyone fool you."

She was not saying this without a purpose. After all, she had been in Hong Kong for so many years, and as her son and husband became more and more successful, she had been exposed to more or less business matters.

The third uncle explained helplessly:
"Sister, don't worry about it. Who can deceive me? Besides, Qi Zhong has a good business, a wide network of contacts, and many ways to get things done. Why would he deceive me?"

Lu Qiaoling felt angry. She hadn't seen her brother, who had never seen the world, for several months, but he was becoming more and more arrogant. So she said to her son:
"Ah Xuan, tell me what you are talking about. After all, you are my uncle. Please check it out."

Fang Hexuan drank a mouthful of soup, picked up a napkin to wipe his lips, and then asked slowly:
"Third uncle, if you want to get rich, I, as your nephew, will not stop you. However, I am curious about how you know Mou Qizhong."

Uncle San picked up a piece of grouper and stopped the fish that was about to reach his mouth. Hearing this, he said with some pride:

"Hi, nothing much. We just met by chance when we were investigating the small commodity market in Yiwu. We are both the kind of people who don't take money seriously, so we hit it off right away. The more we talked, the deeper our conversation became. When he heard that you, Xuan, are my nephew, he decided to start a big business with me. I didn't quite believe it at first, but he had thought of every step, and I thought we could definitely make money, so I agreed."

Fang Hexuan nodded, and roughly understood the whole story. This third uncle was definitely not cut out for business. With his level, he was not fooled by Mou Qizhong. It must be that the other party was afraid of him. He didn't know what this guy was going to do next, but he would definitely not let his third uncle partner with him.

"How about this, I'll have someone take you around Hong Kong tomorrow. After you're done, you can come to me and tell me exactly what you plan to do. I'll see if I can find some connections to help you."

When the third uncle heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. What a great feeling! He really had no idea what kind of existence his eldest nephew was like in Hong Kong, but he was deeply touched by the importance that the mainland attached to his nephew.

After all, when one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit. Their family belongs to those family members. Even he himself can do whatever he wants in Ningbo and no one dares to stop him.

If his nephew could personally help to establish some relationships, then his and Mou Qizhong's "speculation and profiteering" business would be 100% secure.
