042 [One Phoenix on the First Floor]
One hundred words in one thousand words seems not much different from thirty in one thousand words, but a manuscript of 10,000 words, one is a thousand yuan, and the other is only 300 yuan, a difference of 700 yuan, and a difference of 7,000 yuan for 100,000 words!
How to increase the number of words, I'm afraid it is equivalent to one less suite!
Therefore, when Huo Yaowen walked out of the newspaper with a manuscript fee of 2,400 yuan, recalling his previous conversation with Li Daoguang, he always felt a little bit of being tricked by the other party, but when he thought about the tempting manuscript fee of 100 words for the next 1,000 words, he was still quite excited.
It is one step closer to Huo Yaowen's small goal of buying a house!
Walking on the road, Huo Yaowen glanced at his watch, it was more than two o'clock in the afternoon, he touched his somewhat shriveled stomach, except for eating something in the morning, it was too late to eat in a hurry at noon.
Glancing at the surrounding street shops, after seeing a shop selling soup, Huo Yaowen also walked over quickly, ready to go over and get something to cushion his stomach.
Before Huo Yaowen could enter the door, he heard someone behind him shouting, "Brother Yaowen!"
Without looking back, Huo Yaowen guessed who the person who shouted at him was.
Looking at Ming Tsai, who was dusty and his clothes and hair were covered with dust, Huo Yaowen asked curiously, "Why did you come here?"
Ming Tsai grinned: "I'm here with my master to help people decorate." ”
Huo Yaowen glanced at an old man in his fifties standing not far behind Ming Zai, also like Ming Zai, covered in dust, and thought that this should be his master.
"Oh, it's over?"
"Well, it's finished, and I've been working here for the last few days. ”
"The one in the back is your master, right?" Huo Yaowen glanced at the old man and said.
Ming Tsai nodded: "Yes, we just got off work and are going to come out to get something to eat." ”
"It just so happens that I haven't eaten either, and I'm about to come to this restaurant to eat, and you call your master together. ”
Ming Tsai touched the back of his head and said with a simple smile: "No need Brother Yaowen, let's just eat Che Tsai noodles on the side of the road." ”
"I'm inviting your master to eat, not asking you to eat alone!" Huo Yaowen patted Ming Zai's forehead and said angrily: "Hurry up, go and invite your master over." ”
"Brother Yaowen. "I knew Huo Yaowen's temper, so Ming Tsai turned around and ran to find his master very interestingly.
After a short while, Ming Tsai dragged his master over.
"Brother Yaowen, this is my master, Master Chen. Ming Tsai took the initiative to introduce.
Master Chen stammered, "Hello, hello." ”
Huo Yaowen looked at Master Chen's dark skin, and couldn't tell whether he was shy or not, but he was a little embarrassed to think about it, so he took the initiative to laugh and said: "Master Chen, I'm Ming Zai's brother, please take care of Ming Zai recently, he is a naughty kid since he was a child, so if there is anything that makes you angry in the future, Master Chen sees that he is a little ghost and doesn't care about him, if he really makes you angry, it's no problem to beat him." ”
Master Chen originally saw that Huo Yaowen was dressed as a scholar, and he was a little shy and embarrassed to contact the other party, but when he said this, he also grinned and said: "Ming Tsai is very smart, he learns things quickly, and basically does things hard, but there is nothing that makes me angry." ”
"Yes, Brother Yaowen, I never make the master angry!" Ming Tsai next to him snorted.
"If you don't mess with it now, it doesn't mean that you won't make Master Chen angry in the future. Huo Yaowen glared at Ming Tsai, then turned his head to look at Master Chen and said, "It just so happens that Master Chen and we have a light meal together, so I would like to thank you for taking care of Ming Tsai during this time." ”
"No, no, I've eaten it. Master Chen was still embarrassed to eat with Huo Yaowen, so he said that he had eaten it.
Ming Tsai hurriedly said: "Master, we ......"
Huo Yaowen glared at Ming Tsai again, making him dare not say more, so he continued: "A light meal, just eat whatever you want." ”
Seeing Huo Yaowen's strong invitation, Master Chen was embarrassed to refuse again, so he nodded and agreed.
The three of them entered the soup shop, Huo Yaowen greeted the boss, ordered several stir-fried dishes, and ordered three bowls of pork rib soup, glanced at the recipe and said to Master Chen, "Master Chen, do you want some wine?"
"No, no, enough. Master Chen hurriedly waved his hand.
Seeing that Master Chen insisted, Huo Yaowen didn't order more, returned the recipe to the boss and asked him to serve the food quickly.
On the contrary, Ming Tsai is a little hungry for alcohol, he has been following Master Chen behind the master's house for a while now, and he doesn't know if he was born to drink, but he can also drink a lot.
But seeing that the master and Brother Yaowen didn't drink it, they could only endure this idea and wait for the food to be served.
...
This meal was eaten quickly, mainly because Master Chen was too restrained, he ate quickly, and he was full at once, and before Huo Yaowen and Ming Tsai finished eating, he said that he had taken a step to say goodbye in advance.
Seeing this, Huo Yaowen had no choice but to get up and send Master Chen out.
Ming Tsai said while drinking the soup: "Brother Yaowen, my master is like this, this time the master of our decoration is also the same as Brother Yaowen, dressed up in a polite person, the master is a little stumbling when he talks to others, or I discuss with the master how to decorate." ”
"You're amazing!" Huo Yaowen patted Ming Zai's shoulder and said, "Hurry up, let's go back together." ”
"Oh. When Ming Tsai heard this, he picked up the bone broth and poured it into his mouth.
After eating, Huo Yaowen went over to pay the bill, and the two went out together.
After walking for seven or eight minutes, when he came to the intersection and waited for the bus, Huo Yaowen suddenly noticed that the windows on the residential building opposite seemed to be a little different, and when he looked up, there was a window on almost every floor of a residential building that was almost ten stories high and was painted with green paint.
Subconsciously asked Ming Tsai beside him: "Ming Tsai, are those houses being renovated, why are the windows painted green?"
Hearing this, Ming Tsai glanced up at the residential building opposite, and suddenly his mouth was crooked, and he grinned: "Hehehehe...... Brother Yaowen, don't you know this?"
Huo Yaowen was puzzled: "What do you know?"
Ming Tsai smiled evilly: "These are Sister Feng!"
Huo Yaowen was stunned, Sister Feng?
Seeing Huo Yaowen's stunned and puzzled face, Ming Tsai was surprised: "Brother Yaowen, you really don't know what kind of place this is? Although our building doesn't have it, there are a lot of Sister Feng in the estate!"
"Something to say bluntly!" Huo Yaowen patted the back of Ming Zai's head, this kid has become oily and slippery recently.
Ming Tsai really didn't know when he saw Huo Yaowen, he glanced around, and saw that no one was around, so he leaned over and whispered: "The phoenix is the chicken!"
"In a residential building?"
As soon as Huo Yaowen heard this, he didn't know what Sister Feng meant, but he never expected that there would be someone working in a residential building, and when he looked up, almost every floor had a window painted with green paint.
"Sister Feng isn't in the residential building, where is it?"
Ming Tsai seemed to be an old fritter, and said with a smile: "There is a phoenix on the first floor, and we also have one in the estate, but there are more people here, so it is normal to have a phoenix on the first floor." But there are not many here, Xie Fei Dao in Wan Chai, where is Sister Feng really much, a street look, there are almost dozens of such green windows. ”
In the 60s, Hong Kong's "one floor and one phoenix" was also called the "green window prostitute", because the prostitutes who used this method to prostitute at that time painted the windows facing the street green in order to show off their clients.
At that time, this kind of phoenix building was mostly concentrated in the area of Jaffe Road in Wan Chai, and the veterans of Fengyue would naturally look for it along the path, where it can be described as a veritable "phoenix tower in the city, flowers blooming everywhere." ”
Huo Yaowen was reminded by Ming Zai, and then recalled that he seemed to have seen a similar situation in Hong Kong movies before, glanced at Ming Tsai who was proud next to him, patted his head and said: "Yes, Ming Tsai, you know this?!"
"Of course, I've come out to play too!" Ming Tsai grinned.
"Played?" Huo Yaowen knew that what he said was out of the mix, but he still laughed: "Ming Zai, do you want me to tell you Lao Dou, you go to play with Sister Feng." ”
"I don't have it, Brother Yaowen!" Ming Tsai waved his hand again and again: "I've just heard people talk about it, but I've never gone to Sister Feng!"
Looking at Ming Zai's crying and begging face, Huo Yaowen laughed and said, "Okay, I know, the car is coming, let's go back." ”
"Brother Yaowen, I really haven't gone to find Sister Feng, don't tell my old bean!"
"It's up to you. ”
