Chapter 80: Site Selection

When checking out, Xu Qing deliberately gave more tips, and the boss hurriedly waved his hand and said no.

"Boss, are you new to the United States?"

Xu Qing found it very funny, in the United States, it is normal to tip, but in Huaxia, it is generally not tipped to be given.

"When I came to the United States at the beginning of this year, when I first arrived, a lot of people gave me the tip that I was a little used to. The boss wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled innocently.

"The customer is very satisfied with your service when he tips, and the boss is not embarrassed. Xu Qing said with a smile.

"I know what you mean, but you're tipping too much. The boss pointed to the money in Xu Qing's hand.

"Is it much?" Xu Qing looked at the $100 in his hand.

"You guys spent a total of $15 and gave me a $100 tip, that's too much. The boss said.

"Boss, you're from Guangdong Province. Xu Qing asked suddenly.

"Yes, I am a Hakka from eastern Guangdong Province. The boss replied.

"My ancestral home is also in eastern Guangdong Province, M County pickled noodles is my favorite noodles, today is the first time I have eaten M County pickled noodles in the United States, I should thank you. ”

Xu Qing directly stuffed the money to the boss, and Carlyle, and Eben left quickly, ignoring the voice of the boss behind him.

"Xu, we are tipping that boss, how do we feel like we are robbing him. Carlyle wondered.

"The boss just came to the United States, and he is not used to tipping, which is normal, in China, ordinary customers do not tip. Xu Qing explained.

"Huaxia doesn't tip?!" Carlyle was a little surprised.

"There is nothing strange about the different cultures of China and the United States. ”

The culture of China and the United States is different, whether to tip or not does not mean anything, and not to tip is not that customers are stingy, but the habits are different.

Xu Qing and the three of them walked through the criss-crossed streets of Chinatown, in terms of area, New York Chinatown is more than San Francisco Chinatown, and there are more streets.

The streets are neatly planned and similar, and if you are a road idiot, you are likely to get lost and have to ask for help from pedestrians or shops on both sides of the street.

The address of the store that Xu Qing will inspect today is close to the New York City Government and the other is close to Wall Street.

In terms of location, it is very superior, but I don't know what the specific situation is.

Xu Qing and the three of them were all visiting New York's Chinatown for the first time, but Carlyle had already memorized the map of Chinatown.

Relying on Carlyle's strong ability to know the way, Xu Qing and the three of them walked on the street with a relaxed expression, without worrying about getting lost.

On both sides of the street, there are dense shop signs, and the characters on the signs are basically traditional characters.

Most of the voices coming from inside the shop are Cantonese and Hokkien.

Today, most Chinese immigrants in the United States come from eastern Guangdong and Minjian provinces, but in the 21st century, this situation will change, and more and more people from other parts of China will immigrate to the United States.

In later generations, some Chinese people regarded Chinese people as aliens, and did not understand why the Chinese government helped Chinese people when they were in trouble.

After Xu Qing came to this era, he found that many Chinese still think that they are Chinese, and of course there are some scum who are ashamed of their Chinese identity.

Chinese Americans should be the most difficult group to integrate in the world, and Chinese Americans who have lived in many countries for hundreds of years still maintain their best sex until now.

It's rare to hear about immigrants from other countries being excluded from their host countries, but it's not uncommon to hear about Chinese people being marginalized.

The reason for being excluded may be that the host country thinks that you are not integrated and that you are not your own person.

Xu Qing shook his head, putting aside the messy thoughts in his mind.

I don't know why, every time Xu Qing comes to Chinatown, he will have all kinds of messy ideas, whether it is in Chinatown in San Francisco or Chinatown in New York.

Is it because of his Chinese identity in this life, or other reasons.

After walking through several streets, Xu Qing came to the first candidate address to open a store.

Before coming, Xu Qing had already called the owner of the shop to tell him that the boss was waiting for Xu Qing at the door of the shop.

"You are Xu Qing, my name is Huang Deen, the owner of the shop. The middle-aged man asked in an affirmative tone.

Xu Qing took a large number of Huang Deen, with the same honest face as the owner of pickled noodles in M County, with a sincere smile, not tall, about one meter seven, and dressed simply.

Huang Deen should be the first generation of immigrants, if he is a Chinese-born American, suits and leather shoes briefcases are indispensable.

"Boss Huang, hello, I'm Xu Qing, I'm bothering you. Xu Qing also said with a smile.

"It's nothing to disturb, it's too late for me to be happy when someone comes to see the shop. Huang Deen smiled heartily.

Xu Qing and 3 people followed Huang Deen into the shop, and Huang Deen introduced the situation of the shop while Xu Qing walked:

"Mr. Xu, let me tell you, if it weren't for Mr. Xu's desire to rent a shop, this shop would have been rented out a long time ago.

But Mr. Xu is someone I admire, and we Chinese are proud, and I am willing to extend this shop for another month. ”

"On behalf of Grandpa, I would like to thank you, and you can rest assured that even if we don't rent this shop in the end, we will compensate you. ”

What Huang Deen said should be true, and it also confirmed Xu Qing's guess that his grandfather had only recently found an address to open a store in New York.

"Your Xu family is kind. Huang Deen gave a thumbs up.

Xu Qing smiled and didn't speak, and Huang Deen continued to introduce the shop:

"This shop has a total of 3 floors and an area of more than 600 square meters, which is a very large shop in New York's Chinatown Street.

The geographical location is superior, close to the New York City Hall, the transportation is convenient, the flow of people is very large, you are a Chinese restaurant, this shop is very suitable. ”

Xu Qing observed the layout of the shop, a hall of nearly 100 square meters, and then a long corridor with six or seven rooms on both sides.

The layout is decent, and it is very suitable for making a restaurant, but the decoration is a bit shabby, which is not suitable for a high-end restaurant.

"Boss Huang, can we redecorate the shop?" asked Xu Qing.

"Absolutely. Huang Deen replied briskly.

"Our decoration may be a bit big, I don't know if you allow it?" Xu Qing asked again.

Huang Deen hesitated for a moment and said: "The main thing is not to damage the main structure, no matter how you decorate it." ”

"Okay, we understand. Xu Qing nodded.

Then Xu Qing inspected the second and third floors of the shop, and it was generally okay, but Xu Qing was not particularly satisfied.

"Mr. Xu, how do you feel, is the shop satisfied?" asked Huang Deen a little apprehensively.

He really wanted to rent the shop to the Xu family, because this shop was a bit big, and there were very few people who could rent the entire shop, and he didn't want to rent out the shop in a scattered manner, which would be very troublesome.

And the Xu family has the strength to rent the entire shop, and the Xu family's reputation has always been very good.
