Chapter 350 Patrol the Southern Country

In 1946, after the Spring Festival, Zhang Naijing and Qin Ling left the Magic City together with their three children and the old man Zhang Danru and took a steamer to New York, USA.

This year, Zhang Yiran was 19 years old and Zhang Shaoqing was 16 years old. Since then, the siblings have stayed in the United States to study.

Zhang Naijing and Qin Ling only stayed in the United States for three months, and then returned to the Demon Capital with their youngest son Zhang Shaoming.

The old man Zhang Danru stayed in the United States for a few more months, arranged the lives of his two children and ensured that there was no need to worry about safety before he returned to China.

In March of spring, Qin Di and Yan Xue took their father Qin Hancheng and mother Zhu Wan, as well as a group of small radish heads, including Qin Hong, Qin Ying, Qin Xi, Wang Shao, and Wang Zhe, and took a boat trip to the southern country.

They arrived in Hong Kong first, and Yan Xue and Zhu Wan took the children to stay in the villa in Repulse Bay, accompanied by bodyguards, and walked by the beach.

Qin Di, accompanied by his father Qin Hancheng, inspected the property he had purchased before, accompanied by Zhou Ming, Zhao Chang and Youlong.

Zhou Ming said: "Old man, Mr. Qin, we currently own 350 properties, half of which are villas, all of which are more than 250 square meters. The most valuable one is located on the top of Taiping Mountain with a construction area of ​​only 220 square meters, but its location is excellent. Let's go and see this place first, okay?"

Qin Hancheng nodded: "Okay, go and have a look!"

Hong Kong Island is 552 meters above sea level and has been excavated everywhere, with hills flattened, houses built, and cable cars to go up.

The five people took the cable car to the top of the mountain and found that there were not many villas on the hill, only a few dozen buildings in total, and there were still some open spaces.

Qin Di looked at the "small house" with two floors, 220 square meters, and circled around the house, saying, "The place is very good, facing the sea, with a wide view, there is open space in front and behind the house, but the house is a little smaller and looks a bit old. It seems that it is old, so it's better to knock it down and rebuild it! Lay the foundation deeper, build a few basements, expand the building area! Create another swimming pool in the yard."

Zhao Chang said: "Sir, there is a problem with the water supply when building a swimming pool on the top of the mountain."

Qin Di said, "Just build, I will solve the problem of water." Then he pointed to the distance and said, "There are still some land there, I don't know who owns it. Go and inquire and buy it as much as possible."

Zhou Ming said: "Sir, the top of the mountain is where foreigners live, and few people are willing to sell the land here. If it weren't for the Japanese who locked foreigners into concentration camps, we wouldn't even be able to buy this land."

Qin Di said: "When next year, Hong Kong's policies will change. As long as you have money, anyone can buy land on the top of the mountain."

"Okay, we will keep an eye on it. As long as the other party intends to sell it, we guarantee to buy it."

"Don't worry about how much money you spend. The housing prices in Hong Kong will be unimaginably high in the future."

Qin Di is right. Every mansion on a mountain top will exceed HK$1 billion in a few years!

Afterwards, everyone went to see many luxury houses in Mid-mountain, Deep Water Bay, Stanley, Chunkan Kok, Causeway Bay, Kowloon Tong and other places.

Qin Di said: "I brought some funds. In addition to pounds and US dollars, there is also a batch of gold and silver. You can help me buy it into real estate. No matter where the location or what the price, come out and sweep one building!"

All three were shocked and excited.

Zhao Chang said: "Sir, if you buy so many houses, you will inevitably raise the housing prices. The people below will complain!"

Qin Di said: "Buy the property and rent it out, and leave it to Youlong for the responsibility of this work."

Qin Hancheng suddenly said, "A Di, how did you bring gold and silver here? Why don't I know?"

Qin Di smiled and said, "Dad, I have a secret channel. I transported 10 tons of gold through Boss Du Yuesheng in advance. Don't worry."

Qin Hancheng suddenly realized: "Oh, so that's it."

He looked at twenty villas in a row, and finally realized that what Qin Di said was true. With so many real estate alone, the Qin family would not be poor in the next hundred years.

Qin Hancheng lived in Hong Kong for seven days, and people accompanied him around every day. After a long time, he felt that the environment in Hong Kong was OK. The only bad thing was that most of the people here spoke Cantonese, while the people in the Magic City spoke Wu language. These are two completely different language systems. For this point, he didn't want to stay here.

So Qin Di took his family to Macau again.

Qian Rong led four bodyguards to greet the pier and led them to a villa by the Nanwan Lake to live.

Then, he reported to Qin Di about the progress of work here, saying that the casino land had been bought, not far from Nanwan Lake, and was currently building a base, and the drawings were designed. The building area was 150,000 square meters, including a single 10-story hotel, with a total of 1,200 rooms, a hexagonal casino in front of it, which can accommodate 750 gambling tables and 2,000 slot machines...

Such a large building consumes a lot of money. It can spend 60% of Qin Di's money last time in Macau, and the remaining 40% is used to buy gambling tables, furniture, etc.

Qin Di looked at the map and thought the location was good, which happened to be a place where casinos in later generations gathered together. Looking at the design drawings, it was not bad. Qian Rong's consideration was quite detailed. Ten-story buildings were already relatively high in this era and would not fall behind for at least 30 years. If a 30-story building was built at once, there would be problems with water supply and fire protection, and it would be better to be too advanced.

So he nodded and expressed his approval: "Yes, just follow this plan. All the materials are made of high-end goods, and the casino should be decorated in a grand manner, and it is the best in Asia. You don't have to worry about the funds. I can continue to add them."

Qian Rong said: "Mr. Qin, the Macau authorities have regulations on gambling and compete for gambling franchise every year. Last year, a tycoon named Gao spent 2.4 million yuan to get gambling rights."

Qin Di said: "This problem will be discussed after we have built the casino. According to this plan, the casino will be built within two years. At that time, I will try to get the gambling rights."

The next day, he went to the casino location and took a look at the Taixing Entertainment Company opened by "Gaokening". He found that the casino was not large in size and only occupied one floor.

He knew in his heart that Macau's economy was still relatively weak at this time. It would take until the 1960s that the gambling industry would take off with the influx of a large population. Gambling king Stanley Ho cooperated with Ho Ying-tung in 1961 to acquire the exclusive operating rights of the casino and occupy the Macau gambling industry for 40 years. It was not until after Macau's return that the Macau government opened the gambling industry and no longer set up exclusive operating rights.

The family stayed here for two days, and then took a boat to return to the Magic City.

After returning, Qin Di urged Du Yuesheng to go to Macau in person, bring more disciples of the Qing Gang, and leave some people to help Qian Rong build the casino, and then cultivate power in Hong Kong and Macau.

Du Yuesheng agreed without hesitation because he was rejuvenated, just like a thirty-year-old young man, wishing he could jump up and down, busy every day.
