Chapter 23 Hire bodyguards with high salary!
In the late 1970s, were luxury cars expensive in Xiangjiang?
expensive!
This is for the ordinary people in Hong Kong whose monthly salary is very low.
For the wealthy class in Hong Kong, it is really not expensive.
In addition, because Hong Kong has always been a free trade port, many imported things are relatively cheap.
Like Ferrari, the low-end version of the four-seater costs 130,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the high-end version of the two-seat Ferrari costs 260,000 Hong Kong dollars.
Like ordinary Bayer and Pingji, the prices are even cheaper.
Yang Ming knew that he would have to travel by car in the future, and of course he couldn't rely on his father's car alone.
After Yang Ming visited these parking garages that could keep out the rain, he came outside.
Saw a slope in the distance.
"Mr. Yang, this is a golf course, but it's not completely repaired."
In Xiangjiang.
A favorite sport among the wealthy and aristocrats.
It’s golf.
Not even horse racing can compare to golf.
This golf ball was brought in by people from country Y. At this time, the rich in Xiangjiang, both whites and Chinese, loved playing golf.
It is precisely because playing golf can not only exercise the body, but many of their business cooperations are also negotiated on the golf course.
The first homeowner here fenced off the surrounding land. It was a large area. It couldn't compare with those large-scale golf courses that were being developed, but the area was not small.
A lot of investment was made to renovate this place.
In the end it wasn't finished.
After the Hattons became the owners here, they continued to invest in the golf course, but work has not completely stopped until now.
When Yang Ming saw this slope, he actually still needed to continue filling it with mud.
Near Repulse Bay, there is actually a large standard golf course.
It is said that Chinese tycoon Li Jiacheng likes to play golf at this golf course.
Private golf courses like this are really rare in Xiangjiang.
The location is great.
"Steward Lin, please note that this golf course needs to continue to be repaired. In addition, more trees must be planted around the perimeter to prevent it from collapsing."
The situation here will not cause soil erosion. Planting more trees will look more comfortable than having everything covered with grass.
"Yes, Mr. Yang."
After Yang Ming looked around, the situation here was like this for the time being.
Of course, further away, there are actually the villas of other rich people.
Yang Ming knew that if the time was right, other villas around him would also have to be bought.
After all, his and his family’s safety comes first.
When Yang Ming and Lin Dezhong returned to the lobby on the first floor.
The Hattons and their family were already packing their things. Of course they would take away the valuables, such as gold and silver jewelry, but kept the rest.
Now they can get a house payment of tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars. For them, if converted into pounds, that is a lot of money. When they return to Edinburgh, they can live a good life even in retirement.
When it's time for lunch.
The Hattons and their family took one look at the villa, but they were not reluctant to leave. They hurriedly left in a car.
It has nothing to do with them anymore.
"Peter, this place really belongs to us." Li Yufang said excitedly.
"Mommy, it's like that. This is our new home in Xiangjiang."
When Lin Dezhong and the two servants were making lunch, Yang Ming wanted to try Lin Dezhong's cooking skills.
Wait until Lin Dezhong prepares lunch.
Yang Ming saw that it was Western food.
Speaking of Yang Ming's previous life, he spent a lot of time abroad, but he was really not used to eating Western food every day.
After lunch.
Yang Ming called Lin Dezhong over.
"In addition to hiring a Western chef, we also need someone who knows how to cook Chinese food. I like Cantonese, Sichuan, and Hunan cuisine."
Yang Ming wants to hire a new chef, but Li Yufang is not curious.
What she was curious about was how her son could like spicy Sichuan and Hunan cuisine after waking up.
"Young Master Yang, no problem."
Yang Ming and Lin Dezhong came to the study room on the third floor.
Lin Dezhong handed the list to Yang Ming.
Among them, there are three full-time chefs who are responsible for the Yang family's food and drink.
There are five full-time maids, these are cleaning people.
There are two full-time gardeners who take care of the flowers inside and outside the villa.
A full-time electrician is responsible for the electricity and safety of the villa.
In addition, there are five handymen and support workers.
In addition to the maid Ah Zhu brought by Yang Ming, in addition to Lin Dezhong and the two maids in the original villa, sixteen more people are now hired.
"Young Master Yang, is there anything else?"
"As for bodyguards, I will find two for me for the time being. They can drive and can protect my personal safety. Price is not an issue. They are not just pretentious. You must find capable bodyguards."
"Yes, Mr. Yang."
Lin Dezhong wrote it down, calculated it, and including him, there were really a lot of servants in the villa.
The normal salary is also a large sum of money, which is almost equal to the monthly salary of the employees of Honghui Electric Fan Factory.
If it were Yang Jirong and his wife, they would definitely not be able to support these servants.
For Yang Ming, this is definitely not much, but it feels like it is not enough.
"Mr. Yang, are there too many people? I'm afraid the monthly salary expenditure will be quite a lot."
In addition to salary, food and accommodation are also included, which is also a large expense.
"The money is no problem."
Yang Ming took out a Huifeng Bank check for two million Hong Kong dollars.
"Except for buying a car, the rest will be used as expenses for the villa for the time being. It won't be enough to come back to me or my mommy later."
"Yes, Mr. Yang."
When Lin Dezhong got the money, he finally felt relieved.
It's easy to do things if you have money. As long as you have money, these are not problems.
What surprised Lin Dezhong the most was that Mr. Yang actually gave him a check of two million. Aren't you afraid that he would take the money and leave?
At this point, Yang Ming is really not worried.
"I will go back with my parents and Azhu in the afternoon. You guys need to clean up here first. On Monday, my parents and I will move in. We will replace everything that needs to be changed. You don't have to worry about spending money."
"Yes, Mr. Yang." Lin Dezhong looked more respectful.
Half past three in the afternoon.
Yang Ming, Azhu, Yang Jirong and his wife got into the car.
After Lin Dezhong and the two maids watched Yang Ming's family leave, he started looking for someone.
While in the car, Yang Jirong and his wife had learned that Yang Ming actually asked Lin Dezhong to invite more than ten servants back, which shocked the couple at first.
"Peter, hiring a dozen more servants for the villa is a huge expense, almost as much as the employee expenses of our electric fan factory."
"Daddy, Mommy, don't worry, that little money is nothing. The most important thing is that you will live here comfortably and peacefully."
"That's good."
Yang Jirong and Li Yufang don't have to worry about money issues, and the couple won't ask any more questions.
Yang Jirong drove away from here.
Yang Ming, Azhu, and Li Yufang were sent back to the Huayuan Community first, while he returned to Honghui Electric Fan Factory first.
. . .
That night.
Yang Ming received a call from Lin Xiuzhi and learned that he had rented a floor in the Federal Building and had someone clean it. In addition, everything such as desks and office chairs had been bought back.
If Yang Ming has time tomorrow, he can take a bus to the Federal Building to have a look.
