Chapter 259： Wu Shengxing and Rongye Hong (2 in 1

Suddenly, Xia Yu thought of a contradiction. He asked Wu Hongyi: "Hongyi, your Yihexing and the predecessor is the Yihe Yangxing. What is the relationship between the current Yihe Group?"

After speaking, Xia Yu looked straight at Wu Hongyi, waiting for him to solve his doubts.

Xia Yu really didn't know this.

Although he had known about Wu Bingjian and Yihexing in his previous life, he did not have a deep understanding of Jardine International. Xia Yu only knew that the original name of the Yihe Group in Xiangjiang was the original name of Yihe International, but Yihe International was actually Owned by the British, what's the problem here?

As soon as Xia Yu's words came out, not only Wu Hongyi, but even Li Hongchang, who was all smiles, narrowed his smile.

Wu Hongyi's complexion is complex, and I don't know whether it is resentment, aggrieved, helpless, or all three.

Just when Xia Yu wanted to say that it was inconvenient to stop, Wu Hongyi spoke.

"They are shameless thieves!"

Hearing Wu Hongyi's sharp words, Xia Yu raised his brows, but he didn't expect Wu Hongyi to react so much. It seems that there is a story in it.

"The current Jardine Group was formerly called Jardine Matheson, but at first it was called Chadian-Madison International, which was founded in 1832 by the Scottish-British William Jardine and James Madison. It was established the year our line came to the UK!"

"And in 1843, when Dun Yuan Gong passed away, the main line of our Wu family in the Qing Dynasty suffered severe damage. Those two shameless thieves stole the name of Wu Jia Yihe Xing and changed the original -Madison International was re-registered and renamed Jardine International."

Speaking of this, Wu Hongyi's suffocation in his heart became more vigorous, and his fists clenched unconsciously. Li Hongchang shook his head and sighed, feeling equally depressed.

That's it!

Hearing Wu Hongyi's explanation, Xia Yu suddenly understood that the feelings were that the two foreigners had "counterfeited" and "branded" the most prestigious "Jiahe Xing" among the 13 Guangdong lines.

This can also understand why Wu Hongyi's mood changed drastically!

No one can accept that the glory of his family was stolen by outsiders. "Yihe Xing" is the glory of the Wu family, and it was also created by the Wu family. In the end, because the family was oppressed by external forces, the family was overwhelmed by foreigners. Stealing, with the addition of the word "foreign", became popular outside.

As the persecuted Wu family, the suffocation and depression in his heart can naturally be imagined!

Yan Shining, who was listening quietly just now, couldn't help asking: "Then your Wu family's current Yihexing is still there?"

"It has long ceased to exist. Under the oppression of the Qing government, the foundation of our Wu family has long disappeared. Now there is only Wu Shengxing."

Wu Hongyi said bitterly. When Wu prevailed in the end, his fist clenched unconsciously.

Xia Yu's eyes narrowed, Wu Shengxing?

This name is interesting. You can interpret many meanings literally. How to combine what Wu Hongyi is talking about now about the Wu family, it is most appropriate to interpret it as "Wu family's strong business again".

"Have you never thought of re-establishing the banner of Yihexing?" Hou Sheng couldn't help but ask.

After hearing so much, he was also very curious. Seeing that Wu Hongyi did not resist saying this, he couldn't help but want to find out. After all, this kind of secret involving the wealthy family sounds too exciting.

As soon as Hou Sheng's words came out, not only Wu Hongyi smiled bitterly, even Xia Yu couldn't help but shook his head slightly. Hou Sheng was too narrow-minded to ask this unnecessary question.

How big is the current Jardine Group and the Jardine Group with the Jardine Group as its core. Xia Yu knows very well that it is the No. 1 Heung Kong Group and the No. 1 British Group in the Far East. The energy is amazing. Just want to know that the British Wu family is definitely not as good as the Jardine consortium.

Not as strong as people, what else do you want?

No matter how much sorrow, I can only endure it! Haven't seen the Wu Family endure it for more than a hundred years?

Wu Hongyi's personality is very easy-going. He didn't feel unhappy because of Hou Sheng's problems. Instead, he was silent for a while before shrugging and pretending to be free and easy: "The difference in strength is too big, I don't even think about it, let alone... I only have the Phoenix Tower. , So forget it."

As soon as he said this, Li Hongchang, who was sitting beside him, showed a distressed expression on his face, and patted Wu Hongyi on the shoulder to show his comfort.

Xia Yu's eyes narrowed too, and he heard what Wu Hongyi said.

The difference in strength is too great, so I don't even think about it, so is the Wu family not thinking about it? Or does he not think about it? Or did he and the Wu family not think about it?

And the last sentence is even more profound. He said that he only has the Phoenix Tower, and he needs to list it separately to refer to himself. Then this means that the Phoenix Tower belongs to him, not the Wu family?

Or is it that among all the assets of the Wu family, the only one that belongs to him is Phoenix Tower?

Thinking from the outside to the inside, there are more things to ponder, such as Wu Hongyi's status in the Wu family, and the relationship between Wu Hongyi and the Wu family.

However, these things involve tighter privacy. Since Wu Hongyi doesn't seem to have any intention to say anything, it is inconvenient for Xia Yu to ask, let's learn more about it later.

However, Xia Yu did not agree with Wu Hongyi's attitude of recognizing his fate, and it was also very detrimental to Wu Hongyi's personal future. He encouraged: "The sea is traversing, and the hero is true; the green mountain stands tall and does not fall into the ambition of the sky! "

"Hongyi, this is a great era. The world is in a process of drastic changes. Anything is possible. Throughout the ages, there have been many people who have built themselves up to the pinnacle. What's more, you still have the capital to start from. Think of your family. Yuan Gong!"

"All going forward, count the romantic figures, and look at the present!"

"Excuse me with you!"

Wu Hongyi looked at Xia Yu in a daze, and Xia Yu's words kept roaring in his heart like Hong Zhong Dalu.

At this moment, his heart was greatly impacted. The young Xia Yu was full of vigor. He, a more mature young man in his twenties, had the idea of ​​resigning and bowing to reality. This contrast , He felt a deep shame.

Sitting aside, Li Hongchang watched Wu Hongyi grow up since he was a child. He knew everything about him. Wu Hongyi couldn't hide anything from him. Now Wu Hongyi's violent fluctuations in his heart were naturally noticed by him.

However, instead of blaming Xia Yu for talking too much, he gave Xia Yu a grateful look.

In fact, he has long discovered that Wu Hongyi's mentality is problematic. To put it nicely is a young and mature person, and to put it badly, it is a lack of the energy, vigor and spirit that young people should have.

And because of family reasons, he is not good at fighting, or does not want to fight, but subconsciously learned tolerance. Forbearance is not bad. This means that there is a city, but forbearance cannot solve all the problems. The city mansion will become a bottomless pit, burying himself.

Therefore, for the state of Wu Hongyi for so many years, Li Hongchang remembered it in his eyes, and was afraid that Wu Hongyi would not look good. He would have failed Wu Hongyi’s father and his father’s trust, but because he was too familiar with him for many times To remind Wu Hongyi, but Wu Hongyi was not touched.

Unexpectedly, the new friend Wu Hongyi just brought with him today achieved an effect that he had never done before.

Li Hongchang looked at Wu Hongyi expectantly, hoping that he could take this opportunity to think thoroughly that time is running out, and the later he wakes up, the more disadvantages Wu Hongyi will be!

Everyone sat quietly and watched Wu Hongyi who was immersed in his own world, his face constantly changing with his mentality. Even the cute Li Qian felt the change in atmosphere and realized that this opportunity was against Wu. Hony is very important.

"call……"

After a long time, Wu Hongyi's expression finally recovered. He took a long breath and suddenly raised his head to look at Xia Yu.

When seeing Xia Yu with a smile on his face and encouragement in his eyes, Wu Hongyi smiled gratefully, stood up and bowed to Xia Yu and said, "Thank you!"

Wu Hongyi's movements were too fast, Xia Yu stood up before he could stop him, he already bowed, Xia Yu could only smile and waved his hand and said: "I'll just talk about it casually, you can figure that it's your business, and I have nothing to do, haha!"

"No, listening to the Lord's words, I am better than reading ten years of books, and I will teach you all the time!"

Wu Hongyi solemnly said to Xia Yu that he really took this matter in his heart, and the kindness of waking up cannot be forgotten.

The words spoken by Xia Yu had a great impact on him, and many of his thoughts have changed.

After he figured it out, he thought about his previous concepts and attitudes. Many of them were extremely ridiculous and were indeed unfavorable to his development, but he thought they were right and did not change them.

If Xia Yu's words hadn't made him wake up, he would probably continue to wander down, but if he could wake up in a few years, it would be too late.

So Xia Yu's awakening grace is indeed very heavy.

Friends are a kind of feeling. Some people have known each other for ten years, and some have become confidants at first sight.

At this moment, Xia Yu has risen to the level of a confidant in Wu Hongyi's heart.

Over the past two decades, he has known no longer a few friends, but none of them would say this to him like Xia Yu when he first met him for a short time.

He just didn't figure out something. In fact, he is a very smart person. Who is good for him can be clearly felt in his heart.

At this moment, an employee came to the door and saw so many people sitting inside. He hesitated to enter. Fortunately, Li Hongchang saw it. He nodded to Wu Hongyi, Xia Yu and others, then stood up and walked out. , Call the employee aside and ask.

After a while, Li Hongchang asked about the situation. He thought for a while and felt that Wu Hongyi should be known. So he walked in again and came to Wu Hongyi's face, and said to Wu Hongyi who raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "Second Young Master Ye Huanrong, the boss of Rongyehang, is here, do you want to see him?"

Li Hongchang did not want to disturb Wu Hongyi and Xia Yu and others chatting, but the person who came was Ye Huanrong, and now the second young master Wu Hongyi had clearly figured out a lot of things. Time is urgent. Naturally, he has to make up for his previous mistakes as much as possible and start to expand his contacts. , To form a network of relations, and the energy of "Rongyexing" is not bad. Naturally, I have to receive it. Otherwise, if Ye Huanrong knows that Wu Hongyi is here, but he avoids him, Ye Huanrong doesn’t say it on the surface, but it must be in his heart. There will be pimple. "

Wu Hongyi frowned slightly, looked at Xia Yu, and hesitated whether to leave Xia Yu and others to see Ye Huanrong.

However, Xia Yu's EQ is higher than Wu Hongyi's. He smiled and said: "Hongyi, you are busy in advance, we have plenty of time, don't worry! Business matters!"

Wu Hongyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and apologized to Xia Yu and said: "Then Xia Yu, and everyone, I'm going to accompany me first, everyone is free!"

"Well, you should be busy, don't let the guests wait for a long time, we won't be polite to you."

Xia Yu waved his hand and smiled.

Then, Wu Hongyi and Li Hongchang walked out quickly, while Xia Yu and others stayed in the room to chat, drink tea and eat snacks.

...

Not long after, a string of footsteps came from far to near. Xia Yu and others immediately looked out the door. When they saw Wu Hongyi, Li Hongchang and a middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses and an upright man coming by, They stood up consciously and looked at Wu Hongyi and others with a smile.

Soon, the three of Wu Hongyi walked in again, and he took the lead to introduce: "Let me introduce, this is Ye Huanrong, the owner of Rong Yip Hong, who is the largest Chinese food supermarket and wholesale center in Birmingham. Many Chinese restaurants and retail stores purchase from Rong Yeh. Boss Ye’s business has grown and he has now entered London."

"Young Master Wu praised it, a small business, not worth mentioning!"

First, he waved his hand humbly and laughed, and then Ye Huanrong said warmly to Xia Yu and others: "Hello, I am Ye Huanrong, I am glad to meet you all!"

At the same time, although Ye Huanrong’s face was full of smiles, his heart was stunned. After all, from Wu Hongyi first introducing him to Xia Yu and others, it can be seen that in Wu Hongyi’s mind, Xia Yu and others are more important than him. Hony is naturally not a stupid person, so Ye Huanrong must of course take Xia Yu and others seriously.

"Boss Ye, this is my friend Xia Yu, and his girlfriend Li Qian, these are Yan Shining, Hou Sheng, and Li Wuming."

Wu Hongyi then pointed to Xia Yu and others to introduce Ye Huanrong.

"Boss Ye, hello!"

"Hello!"

Xia Yu, Ye Huanrong and others shook hands with a very warm attitude, and Xia Yu did the same.

In fact, after Wu Hongyi introduced Ye Huanrong, Xia Yu knew who he was.

Previous life Xia Yu has seen the British rich list. Ye Huanrong is the first Chinese to enter the British rich list. He is also the richest man in the British Chinese businessmen. Of course, the name of the "Chinese businessmen's richest man" can be worn on his head despite some moisture. Up is a manifestation of strength.

Ye Huanrong is a Hakka. He was born in 1940. He crossed the ocean in 1959 and came to the UK alone. With the help of the Liverpool Hakka Association, he got his first job-washing dishes for restaurants.

However, he is very business-minded and highly educated, so he started to work hard by himself later and set up a restaurant to operate his own, and his funds began to increase.

In 1970, the "Rongyehang" was established in Birmingham, England. In the 21st century, the "Rongyehang" developed into the largest Chinese food supermarket and wholesale center in the UK. There are 4 large supermarket chains in London, Manchester and Birmingham, headquartered in Birmingham, providing goods for more than 2,000 Chinese restaurants and retail stores in the UK.

Ye Huanrong is also the "leading brother" of Chinese supermarkets in Europe, and "Rongyexing" is the "invincible flagship" of food import and export agents in the European Far East and Asia.

He is also a guest of British Prince Charles, and is also an old acquaintance with Blair and Cameron.

Therefore, Ye Huanrong, who is definitely self-made, is definitely an outstanding figure who has not yet fully emerged.

Then, Wu Hongyi, Ye Huanrong and others sat down again, chatting and drinking tea with Xia Yu.

While chatting, Wu Hongyi said suddenly: "By the way, Xia Yu, June 21 is the day when the London Chinatown Chinese Entrepreneurs Association was established. There are not many days left. You must come by then."

Xia Yu raised his eyebrows. June 21 was indeed coming soon. I didn't expect it to be so coincidental. It was not long before the Chinese Business Association was founded when he first came. It seems that he is lucky.

The London Chinatown Chinese Entrepreneurs Association is indeed a good platform. At that time, the upper-class Chinese will be there. UU Reading www.uukahnshu.com is a good opportunity to expand your network.

Of course, Xia Yu shouldn't miss such a good opportunity. Besides, being idle here is also idle, so it is better to establish contacts with each other.

"Such a grand day, of course I can't be without!"

Xia Yu said with a smile.

"Haha, we will come together then!"

"Then trouble you!"

Seeing Xia Yu and Wu Hongyi talking and laughing, the relationship is so close, Ye Huanrong's mind has changed, guessing what Xia Yu is coming from, but it is a pity that Wu Hongyi didn't tell him Xia Yu's details, which made him very true. regret.

The rest of the time, chatting, drinking, tea and eating, and in the afternoon, Wu Hongyi took him around, or met some people, the time flies full and fast.

At night, Xia Yu and others went back with Wu Hongyi after having dinner in the Phoenix Building.
