vs 88 Purpose for money only (1)
Two days after this incident, Zhang Dadong took four people to the Sparrow Pavilion on Tai Kok Street in Kowloon City, which was empty, from the first to the third floor was completely empty, and there was not even a place to sit, so he had to invite them to the fourth floor, the largest one here was the practice ground for the Bagua Sect disciples, and there were a few rest rooms left, which were made bedrooms for Lu Li and Xu Yunjian.
"Lu Sheng, this is the main brother of Quanji Decoration Company, and the rest are his buddies; Brother Zheng, this is Mr. Lu I told you. ”
Brother Zheng is a big-eared man, slightly bowed, smiled diligently, took out a business card from his arms and handed it over, "Niu Zheng." ”
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Brother Zheng, I'm sorry, I don't have a business card."
"It's okay, it's okay." Niu Zheng smiled and shook his head, "I heard Lawyer Zhang talk about Lu Sheng, he is really a young man, admire, admire." ”
"Lu Sheng, I invited Brother Zheng over this time, I want the two of you to meet at three heads to explain the words clearly, you can tell him what you want, you can tell him, as for how much the price is, it is good to make it clear in person, if you are willing, they will immediately work on the skidding, and start immediately; If you don't think it's appropriate, discuss other options. ”
Lu Li nodded, understanding the other party's intentions, but he didn't rush to speak first, but shook hands with a few people brought by Brother Zheng, and asked for their respective names, which were Ah Cheng, Ah Jie, and Ah Shun. "I don't speak Cantonese very well, but I know how to listen. So you can speak the language you are familiar with, and there is only one request, and that is to slow down. He smiled and said, "It's not a short time to be here, but I feel like learning Cantonese is really hard work!" ”
Everyone chuckled, "No problem, Lu Sheng." We can all understand you. ”
"That would be great. Let's stop talking about it here, let's go downstairs, so I can hear your expertise. ”
So the group went down to the first floor, and Luli pointed to the spacious hall and said, "I'll tell you what I think first, and if you think it's inappropriate, you can interrupt me directly." ”
This is one of the few people who came over from the Quanji decoration company. Although it is headed by Brother Zheng, Ah Cheng is a professional, when it comes to such a topic, others consciously look at him, Ah Cheng smiled and nodded: "No problem, and our service is completely based on the standard of guests." Unless the mistake is very serious, we will carry out the construction according to your wishes. ”
"Well, I'd like to put twenty-four tables here. At four people per table, that's ninety-six, and the same is true for the second and third floors. Do you think you can put it open? ”
"I don't know what the hot pot business is like, but Lu Sheng, Hong Kong people occasionally eat side pot at home in winter, and I think the biggest feature of this way of eating is that there are cups and plates, and the table will be very lively. Except for the necessary hot pot. Other kinds of seafood, water vegetables, mutton, beef, fish balls, shrimp boys, and many other products. If you put 24 tables, I'm afraid that the area of the table should not be too large, and when the time comes, can you put so many things open? ”
"It's a real problem, but I've been thinking about it lately. Do you think it is feasible to make a mobile hot pot restaurant that is completely self-picked by customers? The simple explanation is that there are twenty-four tables around it. All are installed in the form of conveyor belts, all kinds of different foods are placed on the conveyor belt, and guests can take what they like, so that the time for ordering and serving food can be omitted; second, it can also reduce the number of handlers; Thirdly, it can also simplify the final accounting time. ”
"So, how do you settle the bill?"
"At first, I thought that everything should be at a uniform price, but then I felt that this was not appropriate, after all, the price of green vegetables and shrimp is too far apart, and if you tilt it in either direction, there will be people who are dissatisfied, so I thought, how about paying according to the color of different plates? Is it okay to have different colors and different prices for the plates? ”
"Yes, of course, yes." Ah Cheng secretly calculated, this Lu someone's brain is really smart! He can also think of this method? The last two advantages are not mentioned, the first one saves the time of ordering and serving, but it is indeed as he said - people who have eaten in restaurants have this feeling, order five dishes, serve two first, let the guests enjoy, and the remaining three will take a long time! And this kind of self-service hot pot dish, once launched, will definitely be very popular with Hong Kong people!
"I mean, can you do this kind of mobile conveyor belt?"
"Huh? Yes! Sorry, I'm a little distracted. Ah Cheng smiled to himself, "I understand what you mean, don't worry, we will definitely be able to help you solve this kind of problem." Are there any other ones that are decorated in the same way you talked to Ellen last time? ”
"Yes, can you calculate the cost for me in the shortest amount of time?"
Ah Cheng nodded, turned his head and discussed with Ah Shun and Ah Jie for a while, the two of them looked embarrassed, they just undertook civil engineering, this kind of conveyor belt with pure electric and mechanical methods added, it is really not something that can be done, the three of them whispered a few words, Ah Cheng turned back to Lu Li and said: "Lu Sheng, what I can tell you now is that it does not include the cost of the restaurant decoration of the mobile conveyor belt, and the other parts will not be able to give you a quotation after at least two days." ”
"Okay, how much does the upfront part cost?"
"140,653.45."
"What about the conveyor belt?"
"Lu Sheng, I can only estimate for you, but the cost of adding such a conveyor belt will not be less than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars."
Lu Li gasped as if he had a toothache, damn, why are there so many? When he came to Hong Kong for the second time, he brought a check of 400,000 Hong Kong dollars given by Zhou Bingcheng, as well as about 5,000 yuan, adding up to more than 400,000 yuan, handling temporary documents, renting a house, and daily food and drink for two people, seven deductions and eight deductions, and when he went home, there were still 340,000 yuan, and when he led the three people to turn back again, it has been spent until now, and it is not less than 300,000 yuan, but now I heard Ah Cheng say that it is just a transmission agency, it will cost no less than 100,000 yuan, a total of three floors of business space, how much does it cost? It really gave him a bit of a headache. Is this idea dispelled?
"Lu Sheng?"
"No!" He shook his head firmly and spat out a word. "No!"
"What?"
"Ah, I mean, just as you said, you go and install it for me, and I'll give you a lot of money. Xu Yunjian? ”
"What?"
"You go out with Gu Zhong for a while and inquire. What kind of contest can I still sign up for, if so, I will also report my name. ”
"Okay!" Xu Yunjian laughed, gave Gu Zhong a look, and the two of them walked away.
Sent away the people from Quanji Decoration Company, but Zhang Dadong stayed, "Lu Sheng, do you really plan to participate in the competition?" ”
"How. Will it be too late for you to dissuade me? ”
"I didn't mean that, I mean, although I didn't see you and people doing it with my own eyes that day in the Jin Family's Rich Gold Shop, since you can defeat four bandits by yourself, it must be very good. But this kickboxing tournament is no better than anything else. Many of them are masters from the Pacific Rim, such as the United States, the Philippines, Thailand, Japan, etc. These people are in the game...... There is not the slightest mercy. And go all out when you do it! Although there are referees and a small number of rules to prevent human deaths, there have been two consecutive competitions in which people have died on the battlefield. You've got to think about it. ”
Luli nodded gratefully, and suddenly smiled: "Alan." When I went the other day, you didn't seem to be very interested in this event, what's wrong today? ”
"I heard Mr. Xu say that he wants you to participate in the competition, so I made up for it temporarily." Zhang Dadong smiled innocently and said, "Really." Lu Sheng, this is not joking with you. ”
"I know, don't worry, I really can't beat people, won't I surrender?"
************************************************
Xu Yunjian and Gu Zhong came back and brought Lu Li unexpected news: the organizing committee of the conference did not accept individual registration, and the two of them temporarily discussed and decided to participate in the conference as Hong Kong gossip - Lu Li also became the only representative of Hong Kong!
Originally, with the many martial arts schools in Hong Kong, and coincided with the grand event, they were eager to try in advance, and there were not a few martial arts schools that wanted to take advantage of the power of the home field to fight a good ranking in the local area, such as Cai Li Buddha Gate, Nanquan Gate, South Shaolin Gate, Taiji Gate, White Crane Gate, Eagle Claw Gate, Baji Gate, etc., many even after the end of the last competition, after determining the venue of the next competition, they signed up with the organizing committee of the conference, and the bad thing was on Sen Sen, he arrived in Hong Kong in mid-October, paid 250,000 out of his own pocket, and continuously challenged the local martial arts sect in Hong Kong. The result is a sweep in all directions, and there is no triad in the ring at all! The Hong Kong martial artists who beat their heads and talked about the 'Sen' color change!
Sen Sen's methods are very ruthless, whoever fights with him, none of them can retreat with their whole body, how much they are a little injured, Liu Jiang of Nanquanmen, Han Yinghu of Taijimen, and Zhao Huishan of Eagle Claw Gate have injured him, and because of this, many Hong Kong martial arts sects have chosen to stop and simply not send people to the conference to report - this has also caused a lack of personnel at the conference, at least, martial artists from the Chinese side, there is only one guy named Gao Chun from Taiwan, China, and the other is Lu Li.
"Are there a lot of masters?"
"It's a lot, the conference is divided into two halves, and there are four seeded players in each half, namely Japan's Funakoshi Morimori, Kawa Hirojun, and the United States' Toby? Anderson, Collins? Han Nang, Uchai and Goli in Thailand, Binshijia in the Philippines and Nguyen Vuer in Vietnam. Among them, especially Chuan Yangjun and Collins? Hanernan and Uchai are the favourites. Among them, Chuan Yangjun is the champion of the first session, and Wuchai is the second; And Collins? Hanernan was the 1979 U.S. Karate Champion and was very strong. Oh, I forgot to tell you, this guy is black, and it is said that he learned Jeet Kune Do with Bruce Lee back then, and he is the head of several families, so he should definitely not be underestimated. ”
"Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Yunjian nodded frequently and said: "I also heard that in 79, this Collins was absent from the second competition held in Margila in order to prepare for the domestic competition, otherwise, whether Wuchai can win the championship is still being said." ”
Gu Zhong said: "That being said, Uchai's kung fu is also quite remarkable, he has won the Thai Muay Thai championship three years in a row, and he has beaten his opponent to internal bleeding six times. Mr. Lu, you ......, I'm a little worried about you. ”
Lu Li didn't speak for a long time, looking down at his outstretched palm, the palm of his hand was red, white and white, looking very delicate and beautiful; He sometimes finds it strange that he has never received professional training, so how can he use so many martial arts skills? Is this a gift from God, or is it something about? "Tiny, little?"
"I'm fine." Lu Li raised his head with a smile, his black and white eyes were shining, "What is the official start of the game?" ”
"The sixteenth, which is next Saturday. As for your matchups, you won't be able to decide until after the draw of the tournament. ”
"Okay, let's wait for the results of the draw to come out."
The matchup came out quickly, with Luli in the top half of the bracket with a total of 32 players and 33 in the bottom half, with a lucky guy having a bye in the first round.
In the first half of the district, there are Funakoshi Morimori and Toby? Anderson, Uchai and Nguyen Vuer are seeded and divided into four groups: A, B, C, and D, with eight players in each group. Luli was placed in Group C and was in a group with Nguyen Vul. The remaining six are from Singapore, Japan, Thailand and Malaysia. Eight people fought against each other, and it was the knockout round at the beginning, and Lu Li looked at the matchup chart, and the opponent he had to face in the first game was called Ndullah, a Malaysian player.
In addition to the matchup chart, there are also championship handicaps in Macau and Malaysia, and the favorites are the ones Xu Yunjian and Gu Zhong said, especially Collins? Hanernan is the favourite at odds of 1.77 to 1. Of course, this is just the beginning of the data, and the odds are subject to change depending on the progress of the game and the performance of the players.
As for Lu Li, Xu Yunjian searched for a long time before he found his name in the bottom line of the 65-man list: Lu Li, 1 to 190.
He still didn't understand a little, and only after asking Gu Zhong did he know that the concept of this kind of odds is to buy a dollar and press it on Lu Li, and in the end, if he wins the championship, he can get 190 yuan! Xu Yunjian held the odds table, closed his eyes and pondered for a while, and couldn't help laughing! attracted the sideways eyes of everyone around, and even Gu Zhong startled him: "What are you doing?" ”
"I fucking sent it!" Xu Yunjian shouted and grabbed Gu Zhong's hand, "Do you know where to bet?" ”
"What, you really want to buy him?"
"Of course! You've seen a little kung fu, Sen Sen made him fight all over the ground to find his teeth, not to mention others, hurry up, take me, take me. Oh no, I have to go back to Xiaoxiao and ask for money. (To be continued......)
