83, Old Man Li went abroad
In the gazebo in the front yard, Li He asked Old Man Li, "How are you thinking about it?" Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"You say, it's interesting to go to a place where you are not familiar with your life, my old bones can be tossed for a few years, how can it be good to die outside", Old Man Li took a puff of dry tobacco, his eyes were still staring at the eldest grandson by the pond, "Hey, pay attention, don't get so close to the pool."
When the child heard Old Man Li's voice, he just raised his head blankly, not understanding the meaning of Old Man Li's words.
Li He said, "It's good for you to go and bring the child to him, your eldest grandson obviously can't even speak Chinese, can you rest assured?"
Old man Li sighed, "This fucking Chinese can't speak, can you be considered Chinese."
The second and third generations of overseas Chinese are relatively poor, this child speaks Thai, after all, the people around him speak Thai, and the social language environment is also Thai. The older I get, the more I can't speak Chinese.
The basic situation is that Thai can be taught without teaching, and Chinese must be taught by their own parents with extra time.
Old man Li is also justified in worrying.
"Your son is a gentleman, he used to eat well and live well, maybe you can still bloom old trees, rejuvenate the second spring, and open a foreign meat", Li He deliberately joked with Old Man Li.
"Don't make fun of me, how old is Lao Tzu?
"I'm supporting you to enjoy happiness in the past, if you're not happy, just go home again, what a big deal, make it difficult for you to be like this. Don't you want to see your daughter, so it's convenient to go out and see you, right?"
Old man Li smoked the sparks from the smoke pot, sighed heavily and said, "Okay, I'll go on a walk." If you don't feel well, I'll come back."
Old man Li said to Li Jiasheng, "I can go over, but I want to come back, you have to send me back."
Li Jiasheng naturally agreed, "Dad, this is no problem."
Old man Li began to pack his luggage, took Li He to the basement, fumbled for the light, and carefully wiped the shelf with a rag, "I mainly can't bear these things."
After a few years of tinkering with Old Man Li, Li He's basement was almost full, with porcelain, calligraphy and paintings.
"Bring two of your favorites."
"I've really helped you collect a lot of good things over the years, and I'm happy to look at it every day. Now that I'm gone, you can dispose of these things as you like, whether you want to sell them or give them away, you make your own decisions. But I still said before, most of these are treasures, and you really have no place to cry if you lose money. If there is anything you don't understand in the future, you go and ask Lao Zhu, I will explain him before I leave", Old Man Li took out two pieces of jade and said to Li He, "I will take these two pieces, one for my daughter, and one for my granddaughter, no problem, right?"
It's just an ordinary jadeite species, and the carving is delicate, Li He nodded, "If you like it, just take it, just take a few more pieces." Originally, you received all the jade in that box. I want to collect it without you, and I can't collect so much."
Old man Li took out the account book from his arms again, "This is the account book of so many years, my old man dares to say with his conscience, every item is worth buying, and the money you spend is not unjust at all."
Li He took the account book and didn't look at it, of course he knew that the money was not wronged, and he had only spent less than 300,000 yuan over the years, but the collection had increased by half, and he would take something casually in the future and send it to the auction house, which would be hundreds of thousands.
"You've also become a mother-in-law, I've been like this for so many years, and I don't know you."
"It's just because I've been in it for so many years that I have to explain it so clearly to you, and I'm too lazy to talk so much nonsense about others," Old Man Li said with a heartfelt voice.
Since Old Man Li was about to leave, Li He wanted to cook a practical meal, so he went to the public phone booth to call Shoushan back and take charge of the spoon.
Old man Li himself went to invite Old Man Zhu, Monk Bo, and Old Yutou's family.
Shoushan knew that Old Man Li was leaving, so he asked his daughter to ride a tricycle, bring all the ingredients, and take out the housekeeping skills.
Old man Yu said, "You don't use this sincerity in my house."
Mrs. Yu blamed the old man for not being able to speak, "People kindly cooked you all day on a hot day, and they didn't take a penny from you, and you still said such sour words."
Shoushan did show the ability to take care of the house, and the meal was exquisite and exquisite.
Li Jiasheng's wife is such a picky person, and she eats a lot of it.
Children who are picky eaters like this also eat with relish.
Everyone was very happy with this meal, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, so it was not lively.
Li Jiasheng went to the kitchen to find Shoushan privately, and a cigar was delivered, and Shoushan happily accepted it.
"Your cooking skills are very good, have you ever considered going abroad for development?".
Shoushan choked on his cigar, covered his mouth and coughed and asked, "Where to go abroad?".
"Thailand, I have a Chinese restaurant in Thailand, if you can go there, Mr., the business will definitely be able to go to the next level, it's a pity that your craftsmanship stays in China", Li Jiasheng said with a smile.
"It's a pity, what's a pity, it's not the same cook, the same cooking for people," Shoushan said nonchalantly.
"But the income is different, have you considered the income gap between domestic and foreign countries, if you want, I am willing to give you a salary of 500 yuan per month", Li Jiasheng Since returning to China, the silver dollar offensive has been unfavorable.
500 yuan is about 10 times the domestic income, he looked at Shoushan playfully, he didn't believe that Shoushan was not moved.
He has slowly gotten used to this feeling and even enjoyed it a little.
"500 yuan?", Shoushan asked in disbelief.
"Yes, as long as you agree, it is 500 yuan, if you are not at ease, we can sign an employment contract in advance, and all the expenses before going abroad will be borne by me, and I will also give you a settling-in fee to ensure that you have no worries", Li Jiasheng felt that Shoushan was a little tempted, and began to increase his promise, grinning at an arc-shaped angle, and did not forget to puff out a puff of smoke.
Shoushan happily learned to smoke a cigar from Li Jiasheng, but every time he inhaled it into his lungs like smoking a cigarette, his head was dizzy, and he swallowed his saliva and said, "You are the son of Lao Li Tou, according to my junior, I will call you Jiasheng." Do you know how much I earn a month now?"
Li Jiasheng couldn't figure out the meaning of these words again, "According to the current domestic salary, I have observed that there are 20 yuan and 120 yuan, but it is rare to see more than 120 yuan."
Shoushan finally figured out the trick of the cigar, and blew out a big smoke ring violently and urgently, which fell directly to Li Jiasheng, and hurriedly fanned the cigarette away with his hand, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, you go on", Li Jiasheng wiped his eyes, and the tears that were sprayed were about to come out.
"I, how can I have more than 1,000 yuan a month now, I really can't go with you, I'm sorry", Shoushan has a dividend every year, plus salary, and 5,000 yuan was divided last year. This year he opened all the private rooms, entertained more guests, and more than doubled his profit compared to last year, and he is sure that he will be able to share more this year.
His daughter, son-in-law received another salary, the family was very comfortable, he had nothing to do with his grandchildren, teasing his grandchildren, and it was very comfortable.
If he leaves, where will his daughter and son-in-law go?
Now everyone will call him Boss Shou, and he has to get the inside and face, how can he Shoushan ever be so beautiful.
Although it is good abroad, but he is so old, he can't eat a few bites of food, and he can't return to his hometown with wealth, so he doesn't want to show the blind.
The most important thing is that he has pondered Li He's idea of opening a chain of restaurants and thinks it is very feasible, and he also hopes to leave a family business for his daughter.
Li Jiasheng couldn't help laughing, thinking that Shoushan was bargaining, "600 yuan, I will give you another 500 yuan settlement fee."
In his opinion, this is already a fair price.
Shoushan was a little annoyed, feeling that he had already made it very clear, this old man Li's son was a little confused, and said angrily, "No matter how much, this is clear enough."
Before Li Jiasheng could speak, Li He came in, "Is there still water in the kettle?"
Shoushan immediately took Li He's cup, made a cup of tea for Li He, and said with a smile, "Just shout no if you want water, I'll send it over."
Li Jiasheng saw Shoushan's turbulent appearance, he froze for a while, snorted, and turned to leave.
