Rebirth: Rising Hong Kong

Chapter 256 0255 [Sea People! 】

That afternoon, Shi Zhijian brought Su Youwei to Hong Kong's most famous GF to choose gifts.

What does Su Youwei know? She thinks it's good when she looks at the shoes, she thinks it's good when she looks at the clothes, and she thinks it's even better when she looks at the perfume.

When Shi Zhijian asked her anything, she could only speak one word, okay.

In the end, Shi Zhijian didn't expect her to give advice, and directly helped her choose a few things, including clothes for Aunt Su Youwei, clothes for her brother, shoes and toys.

As for herself, Shi Zhijian gave her a new suit, a very fashionable lapel sweater, and bought her a pair of earrings and a bottle of French perfume.

In addition to the gifts from Su Youwei's family, Shi Zhijian also helped to choose gifts for Uncle Ah Shui, Uncle Dahai, and Mrs. Sea Urchin.

In short, all relatives, friends, or neighbors that Su Youwei cares about, all have a share.

In this way, Su Youwei followed Shi Zhijian's ass, running around in the department store of Guangfa. For these beautiful clothes and shoes, she just thought they looked good, and what she was most afraid of was losing Shi Zhijian.

This place is very unfamiliar to her, there are stairs and elevators, and there are many corridors and detours. If she loses her, she doesn't know where to go.

At the end of the checkout, when the cashier said that everything was worth 3,000 yuan, Su Youwei was going crazy with fright.

You must know that her current monthly salary in the company is two thousand and three. In this era when the monthly salary is more than three hundred, she is already considered a super white-collar worker, but she has never spent any money. Spend so much money all at once.

"How much is this perfume?"

"Two hundred and three."

"No, it's too expensive."

"And those earrings?"

"Three hundred and eight."

"No more, it's too expensive."

Su Youwei is going to return these expensive things.

At this time, Shi Zhijian had already paid for her, "These things are from me, and you don't need to pay."

When the female cashier heard this, she couldn't help but secretly stunned. This pretty guy is so rich, and she glanced at Su Youwei again, her eyes couldn't help but be full of envy.

"No, Mr. Shi!" Su Youwei shook her head hurriedly, "I can't take your things casually."

"What is casual? This is a New Year's gift." Shi Zhijian couldn't help but mention those things, "Let's go to your house!"

"But——" Su Youwei hesitated to speak.

They often wear casual clothes at sea, and the children don't even wear clothes. If they buy such good clothes, they won't be scolded to death by A Niang when they go back?

...

In his previous life, Hong Kong star Aaron Kwok once filmed an inspirational film about the life of "Danmin" called "Floating City Tycoon". tycoon.

In fact, the living conditions of the "Dan people" in Hong Kong in the 1960s were even crueler than those depicted in the movies.

Many of them have lived at sea all their lives without identity or status, and some of them don't even have names.

If Hong Kong people in this era belong to second-class citizens after the British, and those Indians and Nanyang people from outside belong to third-class citizens, then the "Danmin" in this era are not even as good as third-class citizens. .

It was approaching evening.

Shi Zhijian's hands were full of shopping bags, and Su Youwei was also carrying things in his hands. The two stood at the pier, looking at the rolling sea.

Around some fishing boats and sampans docked at the edge of the pier.

At this moment, the fishing fires are on, and many people are starting to live and cook. The smoke from the sampans and fishing boats rises and is instantly blown away by the sea breeze.

Su Youwei seemed to be very familiar with this place, she put down the things she was carrying, put her hands together into a trumpet shape, and shouted towards the sampan parking area in one direction: "Uncle Dahai!"

A clear and loud voice drifted past, and soon there was movement over there, a rough voice shouted: "Is it Miss Su?"

Immediately, a small sampan was seen paddling towards them.

"Uncle Dahai, are you okay?"

From a long distance, Su Youwei greeted each other.

"Is it really Su Yatou? I'm fine. Look, I'm a little stronger!" While speaking, I saw the small sampan driving in front of me. On the sampan, a bare-armed middle-aged man looked at me with a silly smile on his face. Su Youwei raised her arms in greeting.

"It's you, Su Yatou, you seem to have lost a lot of weight! How is it, are you still used to it on land?" Uncle Dahai pulled the sampan to the shore, jumped onto the pier, looked at Su Youwei and asked with concern.

Su Youwei stepped forward and grabbed Uncle Dahai's arm, "I'm fine, I just miss you, and A Niang and my younger brother." After speaking, her eyes turned red.

"Silly girl, we are doing well, but your mother and I have always been worried about you." After speaking, Uncle Dahai glanced at Shi Zhijian, who was standing by the side with his hands full of shopping bags, and whispered: "There are many bad guys on land. , you must not be deceived!"

Su Youwei smiled "puchi", turned around and pulled Shi Zhijian in front of Uncle Dahai, "He is not a bad person, he is my boss. He has helped me a lot, and I work in his factory!"

"Hello, Uncle Dahai, my name is Shi Zhijian, you can just call me Ajian. I'm not a bad person." After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he put down the shopping bag in his hand, and extended his hand politely to Uncle Dahai.

Uncle Dahai looked embarrassed. He is a low-level man who has been dealing with fish, shrimp and mud all his life. He has never shaken hands with anyone. He quickly wiped his hands on his clothes. One felt wrong, so it retracted again, and hurriedly changed another one, and then shook hands with Shi Zhijian.

"My name is... By the way, what's my name? Many Dan people like us don't have a name, so you can just call me Ah Hai."

"I'm still the same as Youwei, I'll call you Uncle Dahai." After Shi Zhijian finished speaking, he took out a cigarette and handed it to Uncle Dahai, "Please take care of me when we meet for the first time!"

"you are welcome!"

Uncle Dahai wiped his hands on his clothes again, then took the cigarette handed over by Shi Zhijian, reluctant to smoke, but took it to his nose and smelled it, then placed it on his left ear, bowed to Shi Zhijian and said with a smile: " Are you going to Su Yatou's house with your big and small bags?"

Although Uncle Dahai has been fishing at sea all his life, he still has good eyesight. It can be seen that Shi Zhijian and Su Youwei have an unusual relationship.

It's true, Su Youwei is the most beautiful among their group of Dan people, and their group of elders always treat her like a princess.

It's a pity that Su Youwei's identity is Danmin, otherwise...

Uncle Dahai shook his head, not daring to imagine.

"Get on the boat, I'll take you there! Youwei, your mother misses you so much. Not long ago she picked oysters and missed you. I told you that you were coming back soon, but she still didn't believe it!"

Shi Zhijian asked Su Youwei to get on the boat first, then picked up the things and boarded the boat, handed the gift that Su Youwei helped buy to Uncle Dahai and said: "Uncle Dahai, this is a wish from Su Youwei and me, happy new year!"

Uncle Dahai was taken aback, looked at the handbag Shi Zhijian handed over, and took it in disbelief, "Is this... for me?" His hands trembled a little.

He is a Danmin, he has received gifts in his life, this is the first time he received it, so he was so excited.

"Open it and have a look, I don't know if you like it or not." Su Youwei said this sentence, she helped Uncle Dahai choose this gift.

Uncle Dahai opened the packing bag and saw that it was a brand new belt.

Uncle Dahai looked down at the hemp rope tied to his trousers, his eye circles turned red, "Girl, this... I'll take it!"

After saying that, Uncle Dahai put down the gift, propped up the bamboo pole abruptly, and shouted loudly: "Madam Su is back!"

"Youwei is back!"

"She's really back!"

Countless people poked their heads out of the sampans and fishing boats, waved and smiled at Su Youwei.

They are all Dan people.

They are also Su Youwei's family members.
