Spring Thunder Chapter 0143 Integration
"hamburger."
"McDonald's?"
"Dad, do you know McDonald's?"
"Of course I know, but Dad doesn't like McDonald's, can you treat me to something else?"
"Uh-huh, Dad, what do you want to eat?"
"Eat snake soup."
"Dad, are you going to Snake King Finn?"
"Hey, little girl, have you been there to eat?"
"Yes, my great- grandmother took me there. The snake soup there is delicious."
"So where are we going?"
"OK."
Snake King Fen is located on Ge Lin Street. It’s not too far away, but it takes some time to walk there.
Although Nan Yi heard that there were no social organizations or temples in Central, and there were no dwarf mules hanging around, but since he had just arrived, Nan Yi still asked Daven to drive over to be on the safe side.
She Wangfen's shop has been open on Ge Lin Street for more than 20 years, and has a history of more than 60 years. It is considered one of the time-honored brands in Hong Kong.
When Nan Yi and the other two arrived, it was not yet time for dinner, but the restaurant was already about 70% full.
"What do you want to eat, sir?"
Nan Yi and the other two had just found a seat and sat down when the waiter came up and asked.
"Signature snake soup, pigeon soup, mandarin duck intestines, and give me a portion of dry fried beef noodles and a portion of mustard greens. Ruoyin, what do you want to eat?"
"I want snake soup, fried snake balls, beef porridge, and a cup of Yuanyang, with no ice and less sugar."
"Dawyn, what about you?"
"Dad, I know that Sister Dawen likes corn pancake rice and colorful fried snake shreds."
"Dewen?" Nan Yi looked at Dewen and confirmed.
"Boss, the lady is right, add another glass of iced lemon." Devin said.
"Okay, please help us change the snake soup into a bigger one." Nan Yi said to the waiter.
"Yes, sir, would you like a drink?"
“Do you have draft beer?”
"Yes, do you want a shot?"
"Give me one."
"Okay, wait a minute."
Although Nan Yi and his friends ordered a lot of food, most of them did not need to be cooked on the spot. Therefore, the serving speed was not slow at all. All the dishes were served in about twenty minutes.
Nan Ruoyin has grown up and now doesn't need anyone to take care of her when she eats. While eating, Nan Yi looked at the street through the glass.
Ge Lin Street is very narrow, but there are many people on the street, and various luxury cars turn and pass at the intersection in front from time to time.
Several Ferraris, Mercedes-Benzs and BMWs passed by.
The street is so narrow but the traffic volume is so high. This is not good, very bad. The neighbors nearby are going to be annoyed.
They have no sense of public morality. A few of them should be made bankrupt so that they don't have nothing to do every day and have to step on the accelerator to drive around in the streets at night.
"dad."
"Um?"
Nan Yi withdrew his gaze and looked at Nan Ruoyin.
"Dad, are you done eating?"
"Have you finished eating?" Nan Yi asked back.
"Um."
Nan Yi smiled and said, "Then you go and pay the bill."
"OK."
Nan Ruoyin nodded, jumped from the chair, and walked to the cashier counter carrying her small schoolbag.
"Boss, how much is it?"
A woman wearing glasses at the cashier counter stood up and leaned over to look at Nan Ruoyin, "Are you paying?"
"Yes, I'll treat my dad to a meal."
"Okay, you're such a good girl. I'll give you a discount ." The woman looked at Nan Yi's order and said, "Little sister, give me 80 dollars."
"Auntie, here you go."
Nan Ruoyin searched all her pockets before she took out a crumpled Hong Kong dollar and handed it over.
"Twenty dollars for you. Keep it safe and don't drop it."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Seeing Nan Ruoyin paid the bill, Nan Yi stood up and joined her.
After getting back in the car, Nan Yi asked Nan Ruoyin, "Do you only have 100 yuan on you?"
"No, Dad, I have a thousand dollars, all in my schoolbag." Nan Ruoyin patted her schoolbag and said, "I remember you told me not to show off my money. I'm a little girl, and if people see me with too much money, I'll get into trouble."
"Haha, that's good."
Nan Yi hugged Nan Ruoyin with joy. Although a hundred Hong Kong dollars was not a small amount of money for a little girl at that time, he was pleased that the little girl had this awareness.
"Ruoyin, let me ask you, do you know how much an ordinary person in Hong Kong can earn in a month?"
"Yes, an ordinary salesperson can earn 1,600 yuan a month, white-collar workers can earn between 2,000 and 3,000 yuan, and teachers can earn 5,000 yuan. Teacher Meng's salary is relatively high, almost 10,000 yuan."
"How do you know Mr. Meng's salary?"
"I have a classmate whose father is a school director. He told me that."
"Oh, then your father is just an ordinary person. Would you feel embarrassed in front of your classmates?"
"No way, Dad, you're the best dad in the world." Nan Ruoyin leaned on Nan Yi and said flatteringly, "Dad, you have a lot of money, right?"
“No.”
"You're lying. Our kindergarten tuition is so expensive. We can't afford to go to school without money." The little girl snorted, not believing it at all.
"Hahaha, you're such a clever fellow." Nan Yi scratched Nan Ruoyin's nose, "Well, your dad still has a little money, not too much. I'm counting on you to make a lot of money for your dad and build a big house when you grow up."
"I can make money now. McDonald's pays $7 an hour. I can work for two hours after school every day."
"Come on, stop bragging. You're a little girl, who would dare to want you?"
"Hehehe, then I can help Aunt Xianghe wash the dishes, and grandma will pay me."
"Okay, okay, you're awesome."
Nan Yi stroked the little girl's hair, his heart filled with joy. His daughter was growing up in the direction he wanted.
When we returned to the Repulse Bay Villa, Fang Mengyin was sitting in the living room watching TV.
"Grandma, what are you looking at?"
"K·100, this episode is about Fa Zai."
"Which one?"
"The one who played Xu Wenqiang."
"Brother Fa, I want to watch it too."
Nan Ruoyin walked to Fang Mengyin and sat down next to her. The old and the young sat together watching TV.
Nan Yi had no interest in watching TV. Just as he was about to go upstairs, Xiang He came over and asked, "Master, I've cooked some sugar water. Do you want me to bring it to you?"
"No, I don't eat sweets at night. Don't ask me if you want to make sweet soup in the future."
"OK."
"Also, don't give the young lady too many sweets at night."
"I know, my wife has given instructions."
"Um."
Nan Yi nodded and walked to the study on the second floor.
In the study, there are piles of newspapers on the bookshelf and on the floor. Apart from gossip newspapers, all other decent newspapers are available here.
Nan Yi found a seat against the wall and sat down on the ground. He picked up a newspaper and started reading.
A newspaper actually contains a lot of spam content.
Nan Yi would read the front page carefully, as for the others, he would first look at the title and then glance at the main text. If the content was boring, he would skip it.
He also wrote down some important information that he wanted to know in a notebook.
Nan Yi spent the first night in Xiangkeng reading the newspaper; the next day, after sending Nan Ruoyin to school, Nan Yi returned to the study to read the newspaper, and he spent the whole day reading the newspaper as well.
On the third day, Nan Yi had to go to work.
In the morning, Nan Yi took Nan Ruoyin's car to the gate of St. George's Kindergarten. After saying goodbye to Nan Ruoyin, he walked to Flower Street.
From St. George's to Lyndhurst Street, it's just under a kilometer, passing through some back alleys that cars can't pass through.
Nan Yi walked in front, and Ruan Zhiping followed a few steps behind him.
"Zhiping, how's the thing I asked you to do the day before yesterday going?"
"Nansheng, no news yet."
"Is it so useless to be a gossipmonger?"
"Not really. I'm just looking for an ordinary gossip. Do you want to find someone better?"
"Forget it, it's not a big deal, there's no need to waste money. Do you know where I can find a fellow Taoist?"
"Chasing dragons?"
"Yeah, it's those rubbish chasing dragons."
"It's easy to find. You can see it in almost every block. There are a lot of people like this. There are 'restaurants' in many places in Xiangkeng now."
"Huh? How do you know it so clearly?" Nan Yi asked in surprise.
"Many of those who came with us from Jinan by boat joined the society, and some entered the Kowloon Walled City."
Nan Yi turned around, stared at Ruan Zhiping's face, and said seriously: "I am a serious person."
"Nansheng, don't worry, I never get involved in their affairs. I just heard these from them when I was at a gathering with fellow villagers."
“Keep in touch, but don’t get too close.”
"clear."
Passing by the newsstand on the corner, Nan Yi bought a few newspapers and tucked them together under his arm.
When they arrived downstairs of the office building, Nan Yi said to Ruan Zhiping: "From now on, you can just send it here."
"Nansheng, there are all kinds of people here, let me take you upstairs."
" No , it would be bad if my colleagues saw it."
Nan Yi rejected Ruan Zhiping and went around to the back of the tea restaurant.
It was rush hour at work, and when Nan Yi walked over, he saw that the area from the elevator shaft to the street outside was densely packed with people waiting for the elevator. A quick glance showed that there were about three hundred people.
One elevator can hold at most thirteen or fourteen people. Who knows how long we will have to wait for him.
Too slow and too dangerous!
"Forget it, let's take the stairs."
Nan Yi walked back to the intersection of Lyndhurst Street, went around to the corridor, and followed a few people who were also unwilling to wait for the elevator upstairs.
The corridor was not very wide, and it was a bit cramped for two people to walk side by side. There was a fat man in front of Nan Yi, who was a little out of breath after climbing two floors. Nan Yi did not overtake him, but followed him slowly.
Coincidentally, this fat man was also going to the sixth floor. There was always a big meat shield in front of Nan Yi, which made him much safer. There was a prostitute on the first floor, a financial company, and a short mule in this building. It would not be too surprising if a gunfight broke out one day.
There are jewelry shops on Lyndhurst Street that sell gold jewelry, and there are low-end hotels like the Regent Hotel.
The gold shop, the hotel, the big circle... bang bang bang, what a perfect combination.
No, the bodyguard team needs to be expanded.
As Nan Yi was thinking, he had already reached the door of Room 609. He rang the doorbell, and it was Cen Yangtai who opened the door.
"Manager Cen, why are you here so early?"
