As a Magnate, I Started Checking in at a Convenience Store

“Alright, go change your clothes, and let’s get going! After all, we’re busy with your affairs!” Zhou Chao extinguished his cigarette and walked into the bedroom.

In less than five minutes, Zhou Chao changed into casual clothes and walked out, holding a leather folder in his hand.

“Let’s go!” Zhou Chao shook the folder and headed outside. Li Yang extinguished his cigarette and followed Zhou Chao out of the room.

“Where are we going first? Straight to the port?” Zhou Chao fastened his seatbelt and asked.

“Let’s go to the pier first. Uncle Liu will be responsible for the handover when the time comes. He’s very familiar with this area. My dad has also made it clear to him!” Li Yang explained as he drove the car out of the Peninsula Hotel.

“Does Uncle Li trust him so much?”

“Yes, they have a great relationship, a lifelong friendship. Otherwise, my dad wouldn’t have entrusted him with the import and export trade of Hong Kong Island!”

“I see. 1 understand now.” Zhou Chao probably had a clearer picture of the situation. The two of them chatted casually along the way.

“Hey, isn’t this month shorter, only 28 days?” Zhou Chao had just noticed that this month had fewer days, leaving just around io days until his brother’s wedding.

“Yeah, tomorrow is March 1st. What’s up?” Li Yang looked at Zhou Chao with a puzzled expression.

“So, it’s not many days left until your wedding, right?”

“Right, I’ll be back in Modu before the 8th. Otherwise, it’ll be too busy, and my dad is also in contact with a larger cruise ship. After all, these things aren’t available anytime!”

“A cruise ship? I have one, a super-sized one! It can carry thousands of people!”

“Hey, why did you hit the brakes!” Li Yang heard about Zhou Chao’s top-notch cruise ship, and in excitement, he braked suddenly. Fortunately, there weren’t many cars behind them, or there could have been an accident.

Zhou Chao rubbed his head, which had just bumped into the car roof when Li Yang braked. Luckily, the car wasn’t going too fast, and his head had just grazed the roof.

“Bro, when did you get a cruise ship? Why didn’t I know? And it’s a freedom-class cruise ship worth billions!” Li Yang finally regained his composure and slowly started the car, looking puzzled.

“I acquired it recently. Otherwise, why would 1 bother coming to Hong Kong Island? 1 could have stayed home, right? Consider this, with you handling the transportation, what else would I need to do? There must be other matters to attend to!” Li Yang responded to Zhou Chao, feeling a bit puzzled by his own actions.

“So, is your cruise ship coming to Hong Kong Island?”

“Yeah, the Independence of the Seas should be arriving at Hong Kong Island in the next couple of days. We can even take the cruise back to Modu. 1 calculated the travel time, and it will perfectly fit your schedule!”

“Is it for real?”

“Of course, it’s real. Don’t worry!” The two chatted as they drove, and before they knew it, they had arrived at Kwai Chung Container Terminal.

“I’ll call Uncle Liu first and ask where he is!” Li Yang took out his phone from his pocket and dialed Liu Man’s number.

“Uncle Liu, where are you now? Are you already at Pier 3? Alright, I got it. I’ll be there soon!” Li Yang hung up the phone and started the car towards Pier 3.

“Today, the company has a batch of goods to be shipped from Pier 3 to Singapore. It happens to be loaded together with your goods. When we reach Singapore, we can directly transport it to Peng City!” Li Yang explained to Zhou Chao.

“Yeah, with this back-and-forth, not many people will pay attention to the domestic situation.” Zhou Chao pondered for a moment and muttered to himself.

“Bro, what are you transporting that requires going outside and then coming back?” Li Yang was still curious about what exactly they were shipping and couldn’t help but ask.

“Production lines! They’re in short supply in our country. I’m going through this trouble just to divert some attention. Otherwise, I’d have shipped them straight to Peng City.”

“What kind of production lines are worth all this trouble?”

“12-inch wafer production lines!” Li Yang’s eyes widened at the mention of it. He parked the car by the roadside and took a while to recover.

“Bro!!! When you make money from this, remember to bring me along!” Zhou Chao looked at his excited expression and didn’t want to dampen Li Yang’s enthusiasm.

“You can talk to your dad about that. Let’s go and pick up the cargo first.”

“I need a moment to digest this. In the past half an hour, you’ve given me too many surprises and shocks. I need a breather.” He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, handed one to Zhou Chao, and lit one for himself.

“Bro, I’m starting to not recognize you anymore.” Li Yang exhaled a puff of smoke and sighed as he looked at Zhou Chao beside him.

“Hehe, who doesn’t have a little secret?”

After finishing their cigarettes, Li Yang started the car and headed towards Pier 3-

As soon as they arrived at Pier 3, they saw Liu Man standing in a conspicuous spot, waiting for them. Li Yang parked the car in front of Liu Man.

“Uncle Liu!” Both of them got out of the car and greeted Liu Man.

“Mr. Li, Mr. Zhou.” Zhou Chao handed the documents to Liu Man.

“Uncle Liu, we’re not familiar with this area, so we have to trouble you.”

“The boss has already informed me. Mr. Zhou, you can rest assured.” Liu Man took the documents and turned to walk towards the office building. Zhou Chao and Li Yang had no choice but to sit back in the car and wait quietly.

About half an hour later, Liu Man returned with a smile on his face, holding a folder in his hand.

“Mr. Zhou, everything is sorted out. I’ll arrange for the cargo to be loaded immediately.”

“Uncle Liu, thank you for your hard work.”

As Liu Man was about to turn and leave, he suddenly remembered the concert tickets he had bought through a contact. He spoke up, “By the way, Mr. Li, these are the concert tickets for the Heavenly King, as we discussed earlier. They’re VIP seats, a total of four. Please take them.”

“Thank you, Uncle Liu!” Li Yang happily accepted the tickets from Liu Man, who nodded and bid farewell to Li Yang and Zhou Chao before walking away.

“Is it really that simple?” Li Yang couldn’t believe how smoothly everything had gone. It seemed almost too good to be true.

“You should consider how many years Uncle Liu has worked here and how well he knows the ins and outs of this place. He can do it quickly because of his familiarity. If you had to handle it yourself, it might not have been completed by tonight,” Zhou Chao explained, and Li Yang nodded in agreement.

“All right, let’s head back.” They got back in the car, but this time Zhou Chao took the wheel for the return journey.

When they arrived back at the hotel, it was already noon. As soon as they entered Zhou Chao’s room, they saw Jiang Li and Shen Lan sitting in the living room, chatting and laughing.

“What are you two talking about? You seem so happy!” Zhou Chao couldn’t help but ask when he saw their cheerful expressions.

“We won’t tell you. You shouldn’t pry into girls’ matters!” Zhou Chao and Li Yang exchanged a knowing glance, recognizing the hints of helplessness in their eyes.

“Let’s go out and try some of the local snacks on Hong Kong Island first. After eating, we’ll accompany you for some shopping and enjoy the scenery of Hong Kong Island!”

The two girls jumped up with joy when they heard Zhou Chao’s suggestion.

“Oh my, don’t jump around like that, my little darling!” Li Yang, who saw Shen Lan also excitedly jumping up, was scared out of his wits.

“It’s okay, I only did it for a short while!” Shen Lan reassured him, but her hand gently touched her belly as she spoke.

Then, Li Yang and Shen Lan went to their room to change into different clothes. The four of them got in the car and left the Peninsula Hotel, heading towards Tsim Sha Tsui..
