MTL - Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong-Chapter 12 new fortune
Dragon Phoenix Restaurant.
"Char Siew! Delicious Char Siu!"
"Shrimp dumplings! Hot shrimp dumplings!"
Shi Yufeng lowered her head and sat on the second floor uncomfortably, surrounded by guests walking around.
Shi Zhijian took the menu and looked at the dishes, while Bao'er ran over to see the live fish kept in the tank.
"What's wrong with you, why are you lowering your head?"
"I...it's nothing." Shi Yufeng, who has always been savage, hesitated. ""
Tonight Shi Zhijian took her out for dinner. She deliberately changed into a dress. The dress was very old and ordinary, but it couldn't hide her proud appearance.
"I heard that in addition to working in a plastic flower factory, you also work in a restaurant. Could it be this restaurant?" Shi Zhijian seemed to remember something.
Only then did Shi Yufeng raise her head and stare: "I picked it, did you do it on purpose? You brought me here because you knew I was working here?"
"That's not true!" Shi Zhijian looked around, "but this restaurant is quite big." After speaking, Shi Zhijian waved, "Come on, order!"
Soon, a waitress came over. She first smiled politely at Shi Zhijian, and then saw Shi Yufeng sitting, and said in surprise: "Hey, aren't you Sister Yufeng? Why don't you wash the dishes in the backyard today and come here? already?"
Shi Yufeng's eyes widened, "Da Yanling, what do you mean by that? Could it be that I can only spend my whole life doing dishes in the backyard and can't come here to eat?!"
"Ahem, that's not what I meant." The waitress looked embarrassed, and in her impression, Lame Feng was so stingy, how could she be willing to come here to eat, and looked at Shi Zhijian again.
Shi Zhijian winked at her.
The waitress blushed immediately.
Shi Yufeng couldn't stand it any longer, "He's my scumbag! Don't hit him!"
The waitress snorted, "Why, Sister Yufeng, would you like me to introduce you to the cheapest seafood here, such as scallops-----"
"Abalone! Sea cucumbers! There are also Tianjiu fins! All of them!" Before the waitress could finish speaking, Shi Zhijian said, dropping the menu.
The waitress widened her eyes.
Shi Yufeng was taken aback, "Are you crazy?"
"If you want to eat, of course you have to eat the best!" Shi Zhijian took off his suit jacket and put it on the back of the chair.
The waitress looked at Shi Zhijian with a strange expression, and her tone became respectful: "Wait a minute, I'll go and place an order for you."
"Next ghost order!" Shi Yufeng immediately jumped up and grabbed the menu, "Just give us one of the scallops! The scallops are very good, fat and big, and they are delicious!"
The waitress rolled her eyes, "I knew you wouldn't be so generous, Sister Yufeng-----what else do you want?"
"Who said I'm not generous? That..." Shi Yufeng gritted her teeth, "Da Yanling, what is the name of the thing you and Chang San often steal in the kitchen-----Oysters, right? I want one, too. Make up for the slender guy! He's not enough brains, he's so funny!"
The waitress looked at Shi Yufeng, and then at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian surrendered, "Just listen to her!"
The waitress just placed the order and went to prepare scallops and oysters.
After the waitress left, Shi Yufeng scolded Shi Zhijian: "You prodigal son, if you have any money, you will spend it all! You also eat abalone, Tianjiu fins, those are the things that rich people eat! Even if you eat them If you can afford it, save the money! You are the only male in our Shi family, and you will marry a wife in the future, so you will need money!"
After chatting for a while, Shi Yufeng said again: "Ajian, I think you have changed. You were not like this before! Although you were weak in the past, you were very thrifty, and you never spent money lavishly."
After speaking, Shi Yufeng looked at Shi Zhijian left and right, and muttered, "If you hadn't looked as pretty as me, I would have thought you were a different person!"
Shi Zhijian's heart jumped, and he didn't dare to look into Shi Yufeng's eyes, "Sister, I'll be your scumbag all my life, especially if I remember your leg is because of me..."
"What? It's been so long, you still remember it!" Shi Yufeng changed the subject, "You are my scumbag. If I don't save you, save someone else?"
Three years ago, Shi Zhijian was still studying at Kowloon City Baptist Christian College, but he offended a bunch of street gangsters because he didn't pay the protection fee.
Those rotten boys chased and chopped Shi Zhijian with knives, and it was Shi Yufeng who took a kitchen knife and chased him back from the street to the end.
Unfortunately, because Shi Yufeng was outnumbered, one of his legs was cut off and he became a lame man.
Even so, Shi Yufeng was still lame, carrying her injured brother to the hospital for treatment, which saved Shi Zhijian's life.
"Anyway, old lady, I will take care of you in the future!" Shi Zhijian said.
"You raise me? You raise yourself first!" Shi Yufeng rolled her eyes, "Besides, I have hands and feet and I don't need you to support me!"
Shi Zhijian smiled: "Sister, let me tell you a piece of news, I met some rich people today, and I'm going to start a business. When the business is on track, we will move out of Shek Kip Mei, and you don't have to work any more. , stay home and enjoy the happiness!"
"Do you know rich people? There are more rich people in Hong Kong! I also know a few, such as the owner of our plastic flower factory. He used to be very poor. His family had to live with his uncle when they came to Hong Kong, but now He opened two large factories in one breath and became a famous 'plastic flower king', so Ajian, as a man, you must be down-to-earth, and don't always think about soaring into the sky!"
Shi Zhijian knew that no matter how much he said, the old lady wouldn't believe it, so shut up.
Soon, scallops, oysters and other seafood will come up.
Shi Zhijian ate heartily.
However, Shi Yufeng eats with trepidation.
Bao'er's mouth was full of oil. She had never eaten so many good things in her life.
After eating and checking out, the total cost is forty-eight!
Shi Yufeng was shocked, he didn't expect this kind of cheap seafood to be so expensive!
She works in a plastic flower factory on Nathan Road, and she earns more than 300 yuan a month for overtime work. In addition to washing dishes in a hotel, she earns 50 yuan a month, and it is less than 400 yuan in the sky!
Eating a meal now is equivalent to cleaning the bowls for a month!
After inquiring carefully, it turned out that in addition to ordering scallops and oysters, they also ordered a top-quality grouper, also called Leopard Star Spot. That fish was super expensive.
Only then did Shi Yufeng understand that her daughter Jiang Meibao had just run over there to watch the fish, but she was actually ordering food, but it was absurd that she thought that the dish was wrong and took a big advantage.
"I will push your mother...!" Shi Yufeng could not wait to dig her throat and spit out what she had eaten.
The waiter who knew Shi Yufeng didn't forget to ask Shi Yufeng when they left, "Sister Yufeng, there are a lot of guests in the hotel these days, you'd better come to work early!"
Before Shi Yufeng could answer, Shi Zhijian said, "I'm sorry, she quit her job today!"
The waitress looked shocked, "Sister Yufeng, are you sure you want to quit your job? Washing dishes is very popular now!"
Shi Yufeng pushed the slender man away, "Trust him! I won't quit my job! Keep it for me!"
…
The lights flickered on the road.
Shi Yufeng took Jiang Meibao's hand and walked side by side with Shi Zhijian, feeling very uncomfortable.
Shi Zhijian's suit is neat, and his attire is extraordinary.
Shi Yufeng walked with a lame leg, one high and one low, still feeling distressed about the money for dinner tonight.
"It's shopping for dresses and eating seafood, even if you have enough money, it's not enough!" Shi Yufeng thought about it, still complaining about Shi Zhijian's extravagance.
Shi Zhijian took out a cigarette and knocked it on the cigarette case, but Quan Dang didn't hear it.
"What cigarettes? Marlboro? Your old sister, I only smoked a buck or two, but you smoke such expensive cigarettes!" Shi Yufeng grabbed the cigarettes directly, "Confiscated! Later, I will go to the factory to give the foreman the cigarettes. You can't always let Dakoujiu's gang grab it first!"
Shi Zhijian, speechless.
Shi Yufeng still wanted to speak, but Baoer broke free from her hand and ran to the department store on the side of the road. She looked at the blond "Barbie" in a small dress through the glass, and said enviously, "Wow, so beautiful!"
Shi Zhijian held a cigarette in his mouth, lit it with his hands, and said to Shi Yufeng, "Go in and have a look, and buy a toy for Bao'er!"
Just as Shi Yufeng was about to pouted, Bao'er had already run in and turned around and waved to her: "Mom, come here!"
Shi Yufeng rolled her eyes, "Why is this girl the same as her uncle, she only knows how to spend money!"
Immediately went up and grabbed Bo'er's little hand, "What to buy! How good is this ghost toy? It has yellow hair and green eyes, just like a ghost! Wait for your mother and I will save some scraps of fabric to make you a beautiful doll!"
Shi Zhijian was about to speak-----
"Shut up for me!" Shi Yufeng reprimanded, "If you want me to sleep well tonight, you'd better not say anything!"
…
Late at night-----
Shi Yufeng and Jiang Meibao huddled on the same bed.
Bao'er was already asleep. I don't know if it was because Shi Yufeng didn't buy her a rag doll from the department store, and there was still grievance on her face.
Shi Yufeng was resting on her arm, but she couldn't sleep.
There were so many things that happened that day that she was about to go crazy.
Shi Yufeng always felt that the current younger brother was different from the previous one. She couldn't tell what the difference was.
There is also the "huge wealth" of 2,000 yuan, which Shi Yufeng carefully hid before going to bed. First, he hid it under the bed, feeling uneasy, thinking that it would be stolen, and then hiding it in the shoebox, but he was afraid of being bitten by mice. , In the end, he simply hid himself in the seam pocket of his underwear, so he felt a little more at ease.
Just as Shi Yufeng was thinking about it, Bao'er murmured, "Mom, I want to buy a rag doll, and my uncle said he wants to give me a rag doll." After speaking, he put his arm around Shi Yufeng and put one leg on Shi Yufeng's body.
Shi Yufeng thought she was awake, but upon closer inspection, she was suffering from hysteria.
Shi Yufeng gently took Bao'er's arm away, and pushed her leg down, looking at her sleeping daughter, filled with guilt.
"It's not my mother, I won't buy it for you, a broken toy costs more than ten yuan, it's stealing money!" Shi Yufeng said to her daughter to herself, and then thought of her younger brother, "This **** Ah Jian, spends too much money, it won't work. Yes, it will be finished sooner or later! Well, he is getting old, so he needs to find a girl to take care of him... Axiu, who sells fish **** next door, is very good. Ah Mei from the shop is also good, with a good figure and craftsmanship... They are all big girls, worthy of our family Ah Jian!"
Shi Yufeng turned around and couldn't sleep all night.
Next room-----
Shi Zhijian put his hands on his head and lay on his back on the bed, unable to fall asleep.
He has been thinking about his next investment plan.
It is impossible to save 300,000 yuan in the bank to earn interest. Only by investing this money as soon as possible can you get more profits.
In this era, with the rise of Hong Kong's industry and the real estate industry, various industries have opportunities to make money.
However, Shi Zhijian wanted to find the most profitable one.
The competition is small, the future is good, and the key is sustainable development.
Thinking of this, Shi Zhijian's brain suddenly lit up, and one industry stood out, that is - instant noodles!
I remember clearly that instant noodles were invented by Momofuku Ando, a Chinese from RB, in 1958, but only in RB.
"Ando Baifu - The Advance and Retreat of the Father of Instant Noodles" records: Ten years after Ando Baifu invented instant noodles, that is, in 1968, instant noodles with seasoning packets in the true sense were produced by Hong Kong Yongnan Food Company. , the product is touted as a "doll", and it is quickly accepted by Hong Kong people on the grounds that it can be cooked in three minutes.
In other words, the "doll noodle" has not yet been born, and the whole instant noodle market in Hong Kong is blank!
And how profitable instant noodles are, anyone who has come here will know.
Thinking of this, Shi Zhijian's blood was boiling, and he almost jumped out of bed.
Instant noodles, I'll do it!
