Chapter 3555: Old friend from a foreign land(2/2)
teahouse."
"Did you do this too?" Li Zhifeng pointed at the egg.
You Daoxiu nodded: "This thing is not unusual, most of us Fujian people can make it. But it is a rare thing in Manila, and only rich people can eat it. I thought about it, the cost of this thing is not high, if I make it
, so that ordinary people can taste something new and eat things that they couldn't eat in the past, and maybe it will sell well."
In other words, the Chinese are still good at doing business.
Especially Fujian people, their minds work faster.
Although raw eggs are a rarity here, the production process is not complicated and the cost is not high.
You Daoxiu's method is good.
It was the fellow villager who burst into tears when he saw the fellow villager.
Li Zhifeng and You Daoxiu are both Chinese. When they met in their hometown, they naturally felt like old friends at first sight.
Li Zhifeng told the other party that he wanted to find a house nearby and asked about the situation here.
You Daoxiu also had no reservations: "You said that before the war, although this place was not a rich and wealthy place, it was indeed good. There were decent people living here, teachers, engineers and so on. But since the war broke out,
This place is completely destroyed.
Originally, there were a lot of people living here, but what about now? Those who came back are not even 30% of what they were before. It’s such a hard life every day.”
"Then you still choose to open a teahouse here?" Li Zhifeng asked curiously.
You Daoxiu smiled: "Boss Li, this may not be clear. Now everyone is hungry, and no one comes here to rent a house for business. I found the owner of this house and asked him to compare it with
I rented this place at a bargain price, and the contract is for ten years once signed."
Good guy.
Li Zhifeng was also a little convinced.
That's right, who rents a house here to do business now?
Suddenly someone comes to the door, one sign or ten years?
Most people are happy.
You Daoxiu was obviously very proud of his skill: "You said you really wanted me to pay ten years' rent, but I didn't have it, so I told the owner here that I would pay it every three months. I was right at that time.
He was in urgent need of money, so the owner agreed without even thinking about it.
Boss Li, don’t look at the lack of business here now, but in at least a year, Manila’s vitality will slowly recover. By that time, my teahouse may not be able to seat anyone.”
Li Zhifeng gave a thumbs up: "Boss You, if you still have a far-sighted vision."
Speaking of this, Li Zhifeng suddenly thought of something: "Boss You, you said that the people here live a very hard life? Doesn't it mean that the Manila City Government gives them subsidies every week? They at least have a better life than others, right?
?”
"I said Boss Li, you are also from China, why don't you understand the trick?" You Daoxiu smiled bitterly: "The policies above are good, but how the people below implement them is another matter.
.
Let’s not talk about anything else. The weekly subsidy to teachers, starting from the city government’s allocation, will be exploited at all levels. These officials and police in Manila are darker than those in our country. They are blind to the money.
Without blinking.
When the money really gets into the hands of these people, how much will be left? If it is just like this, then it is okay, but if you only get such a pitiful amount of money, the police will definitely come to your door. All kinds of
The excuse, in short, is not to get money. In this case, how many will they have left?
It can be said that these teachers are capable, but in their current situation, they are worse than just a coolie. Think about it, coolies can at least pay their bills every day, but what about them? In addition to relying on this pitiful living expenses every week, they are the only ones who can count on it.
What else can be done like this?”
Li Zhifeng nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
He pretended to be careless and asked: "Then it's not so bad if you don't have a life?"
"Yes?" You Daoxiu pointed to the outside to the left: "Did you see that house? The male owner's name is Blore. I heard he is a gang member. He lives a carefree life. Not only does he have two wives, but he also has sex every day.
There is fish and meat to eat.”
The location is completely determined.
Li Zhifeng said with a smile: "Hey, two wives, you won't be jealous of each other?"
"Jealous?" When You Daoxiu said this, there was actually a bit of envy on his face: "Not only can't he do it, but we get along very well with him. How else can we just open a small teahouse here because he is so capable?
"
You Daoxiu was very familiar with this place, and he met his compatriots here, so he told everything about the situation without any concealment.
Li Zhifeng also remembered it very carefully.
Any piece of seemingly insignificant information may very well become a major breakthrough.
He stayed here for a whole day, but he didn't gain much.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Zhifeng paid:
"Boss You, I don't have anything to do now anyway. I'll come and chat with you tomorrow."
"That makes, that makes." You Daoxiu said repeatedly: "You come here every day, and I treat you to tea and eggs for free. Living here alone, I finally have someone to talk to. I don't know how happy I am.
.”
As he spoke, he was afraid that the other party would misunderstand something, so he hurriedly added: "Although I don't have much money, this tea and raw eggs are not worth it. I can still afford it. Boss Li, don't mind, everyone is
Compatriots, when we go out, we still have to help each other."
It is said that Fujian people are very united. Even if they are not native to their hometown, they are still so enthusiastic when traveling. ()
