Chapter 020: Meet an Acquaintance Again
Riding a small yacht, not far from the luxury yacht, Feng Lao leaned in front of Li Le and asked quietly, "Young Master, have you borrowed it?" ”
Li Le smiled slightly and handed the check to Feng Lao. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"One hundred thousand?! Young master, this time it has solved our urgent need! ”
"And Miss Natina has promised us to extend our debts." Li Le added.
"How long?" Feng Lao hurriedly asked.
"Half a year."
"Half a year is good~ Half a year is good~" Feng Lao nodded happily, "As long as we can slow down for a while." ”
It was one o'clock in the afternoon when Li Le and Feng Lao returned to Atalles Bay in Havana again, and after working for a long time, Feng Lao had not eaten Chinese food, so he came to the special restaurant not far from the harbor, ordered two small dishes at random, and ate the banana rice in a big gulp.
"Old Feng, how is the rum distillery on our island now? The past two days have been so busy that I almost forgot about it. Li Le said with concern.
"Young master, our rum distillery was built by the government more than ten years ago, and both the equipment and the plant are very old." After Feng Lao answered, he asked again, "What?" Master, do you want to build a new rum distillery? ”
"Yes, Feng Lao, the climatic conditions on our island are so good, and the quality of sugarcane is so good, it would be a pity if we didn't make proper use of these resources." Li Le took a sip of the juice provided by the restaurant and said.
"I'm ashamed, young master, I know a little about rum, but I don't know much about the construction of this plant and the purchase of equipment." Feng Lao said apologetically.
"Where, Elder Feng, with you, our island can flourish, or let's cash this check for Tina first, so as not to have too many dreams at night, and then let's go around the island of Cuba and inspect it to see where we can buy equipment for the expansion of the rum distillery, what do you think?"
"Okay, I'll see it." Feng Lao responded to the voice, quickly ate a few bites of food, put down the knife and fork, raised his hand, and shouted: "The waiter checks out!" ”
Taking an old-fashioned taxi, crossing Simón Bolívar Avenue and along Barrera Street, Li Le and Feng Lao came to the Cuban National Bank next to San Lázaro Bay, compared with the modern hotels and houses on the street, the classical appearance of the Cuban National Bank looks much more magnificent, the whole building is six stories high, composed of gray-white marble, like a square building block, the entire bank is surrounded by tropical palm trees, many tourists and people are taking pictures next to this old building.
As soon as he walked into the bank hall, when Li Le was looking around in a new way, a familiar figure appeared in front of Li Le.
"Elder Feng, that seems to be ......" Li Le pointed to a tall and thin figure in front of the bank counter not far away, and asked Elder Feng on the side.
"It's Mr. Adam!" Elder Feng said softly and happily.
"Let's go, go see him." Li Le patted Feng Lao on the shoulder, and walked towards Adam together, just when he arrived at him, Adam just finished handling business, turned around and looked, and happened to meet Li Le and Feng Lao.
"Mr. Li Le, Mr. Feng." Still smiling, Adam greeted them softly, shaking hands with both of them, as if he had not been affected by this morning's events at all.
"Mr. Adam, it's a pleasure to see you here, and I and the young master are very sorry for what happened this morning." Feng Lao said sadly.
"Maybe Miss Tina isn't in a good mood today, I can understand that." Adam pouted and shook his head helplessly.
"Mr. Adam, where are you going?" Seeing Adam carrying a briefcase and a suitcase, Li Le asked.
"Go to Miami, reunite with my son, and then get a job." Adam smiled wryly.
"Are you still going to continue working? I thought you were going back to the UK to rest. Feng Lao said.
"Let's be honest, my son is being treated for his illness, and I need to make some money to help him, you know, the cost of medical care in the United States is just too high." Adam explained.
"I'm so sorry, if it weren't for me and Elder Feng, maybe this incident wouldn't have happened this morning." After hearing what happened to Adam, Li Le felt uncomfortable.
"It's okay, it's okay, don't you have an old saying in China, it is said that if you come, you will be safe. From the day Mr. Baird was fired, I had expected that there would be today, but I didn't expect it to come so soon. Adam said with a wry smile, and then said with concern: "What about you two?" How's the conversation with Miss Tina? ”
"Thanks to you, our group's debt has eased." Feng Lao replied.
"That's good, with what I know about Miss Tina these days, although she is a little deficient in some aspects, she is still very good at banking business, she can trust you at this time, I think the construction of your island will definitely bear fruit." Adam was still talking kindly.
Adam's words surprised Li Le, if an ordinary person was fired by his former employer at will, even if he didn't scold an ancestor for eighteen generations, how could he scold the whole family, but Adam was subtle in his words and didn't have many words.
"Feng, we've known each other for almost ten years, why don't you have some wine tonight? I'll fly to Miami tomorrow morning, and then I'll be in Cuba for no telling what year or month it will be. ”
"This ...... I'll have to do something with my young master later...... There should be time in the evening. On the one hand, it was agreed to buy a rum distillery with Li Le, and on the other hand, it was an old friend who was about to be separated and would be difficult to see again.
"No problem~ Mr. Adam, Mr. Feng and you are both people who value love and righteousness, no matter how busy we are, we can't leave our friendship behind, although I haven't known you for a long time, I still respect you very much in my heart, Mr. Adam, can I participate in this gathering of old friends in the evening?" Li Le smiled.
"No problem, no problem, I work in a bank all year round, and I haven't been with young people for a long time, Mr. Li Le, you can also participate." Adam grinned, which was not common for Adam, an old English man who was always conservative and would wear a suit in the summer.
"Haha, I had a treat that night~ We can be regarded as New Year's friends~" Li Le said happily.
"Mr. Li Le, Mr. Feng, do you have anything else to do later? I have been with Mr. Baird for more than ten years, and I have become acquainted with some Cuban businessmen and politicians, and if I don't dislike it, I may be able to give you some advice. Adam asked, smiling.
"That's right, Mr. Adam, the sugar cane on Treasure Island has been bumper recently, and Feng Lao and I are going to build another rum distillery, so we are discussing to buy some equipment in the afternoon." Li Le replied.
"So coincidentally?" Mr. Adam's surprised expression was the first time Li Le had seen it.
