Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 12 012 [New Plan to Make Money]

Dragon Phoenix Restaurant.

"Char siu! Delicious char siu!"

"Shrimp Dumplings! Hot Shrimp Dumplings!"

With her head down, Shi Yufeng sat on the second floor uncomfortably, surrounded by guests walking around.

Shi Zhijian held the menu and looked at the dishes, while Bao'er ran over to look at the live fish kept in the tank.

"What's wrong with you, why are you lowering your head?"

"I... nothing." Shi Yufeng, who has always been aggressive, hesitated to speak. ""

Shi Zhijian took her out for dinner tonight, and she changed into a skirt on purpose. The skirt was old and ordinary, but it couldn't hide her proud appearance.

"I heard that besides working in the 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, staring and said, "I'm picking, did you do it on purpose? You know I'm working here, so you brought me here?"

"I really don't have this!" Shi Zhijian looked around, "But this restaurant is quite big." After finishing speaking, Shi Zhijian waved: "Come here, order!"

Soon, a waitress came over. She first smiled politely at Shi Zhijian, then saw Shi Yufeng who was sitting, and said in surprise: "Hey, aren't you Miss Yufeng? Why don't you wash the dishes in the backyard today and come here gone?"

Shi Yufeng stared wide-eyed, "Big-eyed Ling, what do you mean by that? Could it be that I can only wash dishes in the backyard for the rest of my life, and can't come here to eat?!"

"Ahem, that's not what I meant." The waitress looked embarrassed. She had the impression that 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 anymore, "He's my younger brother! Don't make plans with him!"

The waitress snorted, "Why, Miss Yufeng, would you like me to introduce you to the cheapest seafood here, such as scallops—"

"Abalone! Sea Cucumber! And Sky Nine Fins! Order all of them!" Before the waitress finished speaking, Shi Zhijian dropped the menu and said.

The waitress stared.

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 your order right away."

"Place a 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, Miss Yufeng—what else do you want?"

"Who says I'm not generous? That..." Shi Yufeng gritted her teeth, "Big Yanling, what is the name of that thing that you and Chang San and the others often steal in the kitchen - oysters, right? Come and have one, and I'll give it to you." Little guy, make up for it! He's not smart enough, he's so funny!"

The waitress looked at Shi Yufeng, then at Shi Zhijian.

Shi Zhijian surrendered, "Listen to her!"

The waitress then placed the order and went to prepare scallops and oysters.

After the waitress left, Shi Yufeng scolded Shi Zhijian: "You prodigal son, you will spend all your money! You still eat abalone and heavenly wings, those are the things that rich people eat! Even if you eat 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, and you will need money for all of this!"

After nagging for a while, Shi Yufeng said again: "Ajian, I think you have changed. You were not like this before! Although you were weak before, you knew how to be frugal, and you never spent money lavishly."

After finishing speaking, Shi Yufeng looked left and right at Shi Zhijian, and muttered: "If you are not as beautiful as me, I really think you have changed!"

Shi Zhijian's heart skipped a beat, and he didn't dare to look into Shi Yufeng's eyes, "Old sister, I'll be your brother all my life, especially if I remember that your leg is only because of me..."

"What is it? How long has it been, do you still remember!" Shi Yufeng changed the topic, "You are my younger brother, I will not save you, who else?"

Three years ago, Shi Zhijian was still studying at the Baptist Christian College in Kowloon City, but he offended a bunch of bad guys on the street because he didn't pay the protection fee.

Those bad boys chased Shi Zhijian with knives, but it was Shi Yufeng who took a kitchen knife and chased him from the street to the end to rescue him.

Unfortunately, because of being outnumbered, one of Shi Yufeng's legs was cut off, and she became lame.

Even so, Shi Yufeng was still limping, and carried her injured brother to the hospital for treatment, which saved Shi Zhijian's life.

"Anyway, old lady, I will support you in the future!" Shi Zhijian said.

"You raise me? You raise yourself first!" Shi Yufeng rolled her eyes at the younger brother, "Besides, I don't need you to raise me because I have hands and feet!"

Shi Zhijian smiled: "Sister, let me tell you something, I met some rich people today, and I am going to start a business. When the business is on track, we will move away from Shek Kip Mei, and you don't have to work anymore , stay at home and enjoy the happiness!"

"Do you know rich people? There are too many rich people in Hong Kong! I also know a few, such as the owner of our plastic flower factory, Li. He opened two large factories in one go, and became the famous "flower plastic king", so Ah Jian, as a human being, you must keep your feet on the ground and don't always think about flying into the sky!"

Shi Zhijian knew that no matter how much he said, the elder sister would not believe him, so he shut up.

Soon, seafood such as scallops and oysters came up.

Shi Zhijian ate heartily.

But Shi Yufeng was worried.

Baoer's mouth was full of oil, she had never eaten so many good things in her life.

After eating and paying the bill, the total cost is forty-eight!

Shi Yufeng was startled, she didn't expect such cheap seafood to be so expensive!

She works in a plastic flower factory on Nathan Road. She only earns more than 300 yuan a month for overtime work, plus washing dishes in a hotel, 50 yuan a month, which is less than 400 yuan a month!

Eating a meal now is equivalent to cleaning the dishes for a month!

After inquiring carefully, it turned out that in addition to scallops and oysters, their table also ordered a top-quality grouper, also called leopard star grouper, which is very expensive.

It was only then that Shi Yufeng realized that her daughter Jiang Meibao was actually ordering food when she went over there to look at the fish just now.

"I'm sorry for your mother...!" Shi Yufeng wanted to scratch 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 many guests in the hotel these days, you'd better come to work early!"

Before Shi Yufeng could reply, Shi Zhijian said, "Sorry, she resigned today!"

The waitress looked shocked, "Sister Yufeng, are you sure you want to quit? Washing dishes is very popular now!"

Shi Yufeng pushed the younger brother away, "Trust him! My old lady will never quit her 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 has a neat suit and an extraordinary appearance.

Shi Yufeng limped, walked up and down, still worried about the money for tonight's meal.

"Buying western clothes and eating seafood, no matter how much money you have, it's still not enough!" Shi Yufeng thought to herself, still complaining about Shi Zhijian's extravagance.

Shi Zhijian took out a cigarette and knocked it on the pack, pretending he didn't hear it.

"What kind of cigarettes? Marlboro? Your sister and I are lucky to smoke one or two yuan, but you smoke such expensive cigarettes!" Shi Yufeng snatched the cigarettes directly, "Confiscated! I will go to the factory to give cigarettes to the foreman in the future. You can't always let Dakoujiu's gang take the lead!"

Shi Zhijian was speechless.

Shi Yufeng still wanted to speak, but Bao'er broke free from her hand and ran to the department store by the side of the road, looking through the glass at the blonde "Barbie doll" in a small dress and enviously saying, "Wow, so beautiful!"

Shi Zhijian held a cigarette in his mouth, put his hands together to light it, 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 curl her lips, Bao'er had already run in and waved back to her: "Mom, come here!"

Shi Yufeng rolled her eyes, "Why is this girl just like her uncle, she only knows how to spend money!"

Immediately went up and grabbed Bao'er's little hand, "What are you going to buy! What's so good about this ghost toy? Yellow hair and green eyes, like a ghost! Wait for your mother and I'll save some scraps of fabric and make you a beautiful doll!"

Shi Zhijian was about to speak——

"Shut up!" Shi Yufeng scolded, "If you want me to sleep well tonight, you'd better not say anything!"

...

In the middle of the night—

Shi Yufeng and Jiang Meibao huddled together on the same bed.

Bao'er was already asleep, and I don't know if it was because Shi Yufeng didn't buy her a doll from a department store, and her face was still full of grievances.

Shi Yufeng pillowed her arm, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

There were so many things that happened that day that she was going crazy.

Shi Yufeng always felt that the younger brother now was different from the previous one, and she couldn't tell exactly what was different.

And the 2,000 yuan "huge property", which Shi Yufeng carefully hid before going to bed, first under the bed, uneasy, thinking that someone would steal it, and then hiding it in a shoe box, but afraid of being bitten by mice , and finally simply hid it in the seam pocket of his underwear, so that he felt a little more at ease.

While Shi Yufeng was thinking, Bao'er murmured: "Mom, I want to buy a doll, and my little uncle said he would give me a doll." After speaking, he wrapped his arms around Shi Yufeng, and put one leg on Shi Yufeng's body.

Shi Yufeng thought she was awake, but when she looked carefully, she was hysterical.

Shi Yufeng gently took Bao'er's arm away, and then pushed her leg that was on her body down. Looking at her sleeping daughter, she felt guilty.

"It's not my mother, I won't buy it for you. A broken toy costs more than ten yuan. It's a money grab!" Shi Yufeng said to her daughter, and then thought of her brother, "This dead Jian, spending too much money, can't do this Yes, sooner or later it will be over! Well, he is getting old, and he needs to find a woman to take care of him... Axiu, who sells fish balls next door, is pretty good, with big buttocks, so she can give birth; Amei from the barber shop in the village is also fine , good figure, and craftsmanship...they are all big girls, worthy of our A Jian!"

Shi Yufeng turned and turned, unable to sleep all night.

Next room--

Shi Zhijian lay on his back on the bed with his hands under his pillow and couldn't sleep.

He has been thinking about his next investment plan.

It is impossible to store 300,000 yuan in the bank to earn interest. Only by investing this money as soon as possible can we get more profits.

In this era, Hong Kong's industry is on the rise, and the real estate industry is on the rise. There are opportunities to make a fortune in various industries.

But Shi Zhijian wanted to find the one who could make the most money.

Small competition, bright future, the key is sustainable development.

Thinking of this, Shi Zhijian's brain suddenly lit up, and one industry stood out, and that was - instant noodles!

Remember clearly that instant noodles were invented by Momofuku Ando 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, the real instant noodles with seasoning packets were produced by Hong Kong Yongnan Food Company When it came out, the product was advertised as a "doll", and it was quickly accepted by Hong Kong people on the grounds that it could be cooked in three minutes. The company not only made huge profits, but "doll noodles" became synonymous with Hong Kong people calling instant noodles.

In other words, the "doll noodles" have not yet been born, and the entire Hong Kong instant noodle market is blank!

As for the profit of instant noodles, anyone who has come here will know.

Thinking of this, Shi Zhijian's blood was already boiling with excitement, and he almost jumped out of bed.

Instant noodles, let me do it!
