Chapter 14: Dig in the potato field

The next day, there was a light snow last night, the dark clouds had not yet receded, and the sky was a little gloomy. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Li Shanhe woke up early in the morning, struggled to get up from the warm bed, and ran to the Kunlun restaurant.

"Brother Li, you're finally here, but you're freezing me to death."

Zhang Jie sniffled, stomped his feet at the door of the restaurant, and shouted when he saw Li Shanhe.

Li Shanhe took out the key to open the door and said, "Hey, why are you so early today?" Didn't sleep in? ”

"You asked me to come earlier, how dare I disobey!" Zhang Jie shouted, "You walked so fast yesterday, and you didn't say what time it would be, and you weren't there when I returned to the store, so I had to get up as early as possible...... Who knew Kyoko was late today, but it froze me to death......"

"Oh, sorry, sorry." Li Shanhe hurriedly apologized to him, he left in a hurry yesterday and completely forgot about Zhang Jie.

Zhang Jie rolled his eyes, and as soon as the door opened, he rushed to the store, turned on the kerosene stove, and shivered while roasting the fire.

How do you sing the lyrics? I am a wolf from the north, but frozen into a dog in the south...... is talking about the current Zhang Jie.

Winters in Japan are difficult, and they are used to the heating in northern China, and if they want to live alone in Japan to heat their homes, they can't afford to pay for fuel. When you leave the warm bed, you can only rely on your own shivering to supply heat.

When Li Shanhe was untying his scarf, Kyoko also arrived. Behind her were several large carts with several large barrels in the backs.

Zhang Jie didn't dare to shout with Brother Xiao Li, and he didn't pay so much attention to Gongzi. He complained while roasting the fire: "Kyoko, you came so late today, if I catch a cold, you will be the fault, how are you going to compensate me?" ”

Usually Kyoko is the first to open the door, but today I don't know why I'm late. She blushed and said with some writ, "Well, I didn't mean to...... The manager of the branch called me, so I went to rent two cars and went to the branch to deliver rice......"

"Kyoko, you're doing the right thing, ignore this guy." Li Shanhe said, slapped Zhang Jie's head, and then said: "I didn't expect the efficiency of the branch to be so fast." Can I give the rice in the bento completely to the branch store in the future? ”

After receiving Brother Li's appreciation, Kyoko's face turned even redder: "Yes, yes." The manager of the branch said that it would be available every day. ”

"That's great, it saves a lot of work. In the future, we can focus on making the side dishes in the bento! ”

Li Shanhe praised it, opened the wooden barrels on the car, looked at them one by one, and felt more and more that Gongzi was very stable in doing things. This kind of physical work is tiring and tedious, but a girl can do it so perfectly, he can't help but sigh with emotion: "Sure enough, the decision to let Kyoko be the store manager is the right one." ”

If you don't outsource some of the work, you can make two to three hundred bento boxes a day at just the head office. In order to sell 1,000 bento boxes a day, we must first make overall arrangements for the overall work.

"Little, little Brother Li," Kyoko plucked up her courage and said, "Although, although there is not much work in the store, I will try my best to manage the store!" Won't let your recommendations go to waste! ”

"Don't be so nervous, just call me Li Jun, I'm a few years younger than you."

"Yes, yes! Lee, Lee-Jun! ”

Seeing Kyoko's restrained appearance, Li Shanhe smiled kindly, "Okay, I'm going to go out first." Kyoko, when the people in the back kitchen arrive, you let them do it first, practice their hands, and strive to make 600 copies today. Remember to make more high-class bento for 120 yen, the students have money, and the 50 yen bento is only for two achievements. ”

Kyoko nodded violently, wrote them down one by one in her heart, and then asked with some concern: "But, if you do so much, how can you transport it?" ”

"You'll find out right away." Li Shanhe picked up the key to the bicycle from the counter, turned his head and shouted: "Zhang Jie, get here, start work!" ”

Zhang Jie reluctantly left from the kerosene stove, put his hands in his sleeves, and followed behind Brother Xiao Li while inhaling snot:

"Where are you going so early in the morning?"

"Get the car, let's pick it up."

Zhang Jie suddenly became energetic: "The car? Where? Where? ”

"Outside the city, looking for money."

Hearing this name, Zhang Jie struck a spirit:

"Brother Li, don't you? That man is so dangerous! We'll be torn apart by him! Buried in the ground! It becomes the nourishment of the cherry tree! ”

"What kind of books have you kid read!" Li Shanhe said angrily. He took out a few coins and flicked them in his hand: "It's okay if you don't go, yesterday's contribution won't be given to you." ”

In two days, I earned less than 2,000 yen in commissions, and after the split was equal, it was ...... 8 coins per person only.

The yen is still strong, but the maximum denomination of the coin has reached 100 yen, which is about the price of three bowls of beef noodles, or two packs of cigarettes, or four bottles of Coke. It is also the largest denomination of coins, can one dollar yuan buy these? The Japanese government has made no secret of wanting inflation.

"I'll go, I'll go!" Zhang Jie's eyes immediately lit up, and he rushed over to catch the coin. No matter how much money you had yesterday, it's also in the store, and it's your own.

Zhang Jie put the coin in his pocket, suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Brother Li, don't you need to pay for this money?" ”

If you don't become a Japanese citizen, 45% of your usual salary is to pay taxes and insurance, which is so ruthless that countless Chinese in Japan gnash their teeth, so it is called "banbanqian (Sichuan dialect, refers to the money for buying coffins for each other)".

"The tax bureau has come to see it and thinks it has not reached the threshold."

In the eyes of the tax bureau, the commission of food delivery is a very small income, and they do not think that it can be accumulated to the tax threshold. And whether to pay taxes or not is simply two concepts, if you don't pay taxes, you can almost double the wallet in your pocket.

The extent of xenophobia in Japan can be seen in the tax discrimination.

----

Qian Laohei's shop is located on the side of the road in and out of Tokyo City.

It's out of the city, and it snowed lightly last night, and the road is very difficult to walk. Li Shanhe and Zhang Jie cautiously rode their bicycles, taking advantage of the lack of people on the road, and rushed to the Tianjin restaurant where Qian Laohei was.

One or two out of ten Chinese restaurants in Japan are called Tianjin restaurants, and people who don't know the truth will think that they are national chain stores.

Li Shanhe stopped the car, looked at the plaque whose words had faded a little, and said to Zhang Jie: "You are watching the car here, and I will go in to find Qian Laohei." ”

Zhang Jie stomped his feet to keep warm, he had to go in, and nodded hurriedly.

Li Shanhe entered the store, but there were not many customers, and after asking the waiter, he walked through the curtain made of plastic beads and walked to the back.

Perhaps because it is located in the suburbs, the layout of the backyard was transformed into a courtyard house by Qian Laohei. As soon as I entered, I heard a "clucking" hen crowing, and a hen with a flock of chicks walked rampantly in front of Li Shanhe.

Further on, you will arrive at the backyard where the miscellaneous items are placed. A man sat on a small maza, reading a book under a tree in the backyard.

It's Qian Laohei.

Li Shanhe glanced at the title of the book, "Cremation". He grinned, and he was not polite, he also took a small maza, sat aside, and quietly waited for Qian Laohei to finish reading.

Qian Laohei is not called Qian Laohei, he is about forty or fifty years old, and his appearance is only ordinary. However, what is striking is that there are scars on both sides of his cheeks that are three fingers wide, and they are still in the symmetrical parts of the cheeks.

-- It is rumored that this is the evidence left by the legendary "three swords and six holes" punishment on the road.

That's why he has the nickname of Qian Laohei, everyone has shouted it for so many years, and his real name has been forgotten.

In short, Qian Laohei has such a fierce face, and he is still in the catering industry, so you can imagine how the restaurant business is. Most of the guests are scared away as soon as they enter the door, so his life is not good.

In desperation, he relied on doing some knock-on work on weekdays to earn some extra money, and he also had a certain reputation in the Chinese circle.

Li Shanhe saw Qian Laohei's true skills by chance, and beat back the hooligans who collected protection money with three punches and two kicks, and used the grappling and fighting that was obviously from the army. He didn't think a veteran would come to Japan to mingle with the black, so he scoffed at the rumors.

"Got something?" Qian Lao Heitou asked without raising his head.

Li Shanhe got up and said, "Yes, Boss Qian, I have already ridden the bicycle over." ”

"It's good to be here." Qian Laohei pointed to the side, "It's over there, let's see for yourself." ”

Li Shanhe had already noticed the bicycle on the side, and after getting Qian Laohei's permission, he leaned over, carefully touched the solder joints on the engine, and then stretched out his thumb: "The materials are full, and sure enough, Boss Qian's craftsmanship is good." ”

Qian Laohei ignored this unsatisfactory sycophant, he took out a cigarette and lit it: "Take your bicycle in, and the money and goods will be cleared." ”

Li Shanhe coughed twice: "Boss Qian, you know, just after New Year's Day, the proprietress went back to Taipei for the New Year, and now I have a little ...... on hand."

Qian Laohei's face was pulled down at that time, and the scars on his face seemed to be distorted, which was really a little scary: "Two bicycles for one three-wheeler, isn't the price cheap enough?" ”

"No, no, Boss Qian, I mean, there are only two bicycles in the store now, and when the proprietress comes back, I will immediately apply for the fee with her and make up the money for you, what do you think?"

Qian Laohei's eyes seemed to be rusty, and it took a long time to turn: "Okay." Only one for today. ”

As soon as the matter was negotiated, Li Shanhe nodded hurriedly: "Okay, just one." Don't worry, the Kunlun restaurant is not opened by my family, so I can't afford to lose my reputation in the affairs of the public, do you think this is reasonable? ”

Qian Laohei snorted, didn't reply, sat back and continued to watch his "Cremation".

Li Shanhe wiped his sweat, yesterday in order to fool Qian Laohei to help, he placed a 'big' order for two cars, and it was a little troublesome when he lied today. Fortunately, Qian Laohei is not really in the underworld, otherwise he would definitely not be able to eat and walk around today.

He went out and called Zhang Jie in, Zhang Jie was less courageous than a rabbit, he didn't dare to lift his head all the way, and pushed the bicycle into the two cherry blossom trees in the yard, and his legs trembled like chaff.
