Chapter 90: A Friend's Friend
Listening to Lao Lin finish telling his experience in one breath, Xiao Zhang said with some puzzlement: "Brother Lin Dapeng, listen to you, this Russia is really terrifying, whether it is Moscow or Novosibirsk, the police are like bandits, the underworld is more cattle than the government, even if it is so chaotic, but there are still so many Chinese coming to Russia." Lao Lin sighed and said: "As the saying goes, people die for money, birds die for food, and Chinese come to Russia in batches, not because Russian money is easy to earn." If it weren't for the money, who would come to this place of the hell? I'm scared all day long, and going out is like being a thief, and whenever I see someone in a gray uniform in front of me on the road, my heart trembles, and sometimes I think that the security guard can also be seen as a policeman, and I have become a gray phobia. Hearing Lao Lin say this, I laughed and said, "Brother Lin, what you said about gray phobia is too accurate, and I am also nervous when I see someone in gray uniform from a distance on the street." ”
At this time, I suddenly remembered that Ah Cheng, a native of Wenzhou, and Lao Song, the old man of Heilongjiang who met in the international column, they had all done business in the Chinese wholesale building in Moscow, and the Chinese wholesale building where they were located was seized. So I asked Lao Lin: "Brother Lin, I heard that the Russian special police in Moscow recently seized a lot of Chinese wholesale buildings, is there anything wrong with your wholesale buildings?" Lao Lin replied: "Listen to my brother, we have also been seized there, I returned to China more than a month ago to apply for a visa, I returned to China on the front foot and the rear foot of the wholesale building was seized, this time I didn't dare to ship, so I brought some goods with me." I asked, "The batch building was seized, did you lose much?" Lao Lin replied: "We are very lucky, I returned to China before the sale of goods almost, and has already sent home the money for the sale of goods, I originally planned to return to China after the shipment, fortunately I have not had time to ship the past, in the batch building we do not have much left, at that time my brother did not bring much money, so the loss is not big." ”
If the batch building where Lao Lin is located was seized more than a month ago, would Lao Lin and Ah Cheng be in the same batch building? Thinking of this, I asked Lao Lin: "Brother Lin, I know a person named Ah Cheng who is from Wenzhou, and the batch building where he is located was seized more than a month ago, I don't know if you know him?" Lao Lin said: "Does this Wenzhou man Ah Cheng you are talking about have a Ukrainian girlfriend?" It seems that he also helps him sell goods. I nodded and said, "That's right, it's this Ah Cheng, so it seems that you should be in the same batch building as him." After listening to me, Lao Lin laughed and said: "This world is too small, I didn't expect to meet friends and friends on the international column, I am very familiar with him, and he sells my family's goods." Dapeng: How did you know Ah Cheng? I replied: "The first time I came on the international train, I was in the same carriage as his relative, whose surname is Gao, who went to Moscow to join him." Lao Lin said: "Before I returned to China, when I was drinking with me, Ah Cheng said that he had a relative who was coming, Dapeng, did you hear Ah Cheng's relatives talk about Ah Cheng?" But listening to your tone, you seem to be quite familiar with Ah Cheng, and you all know that he has a Ukrainian girlfriend, and he doesn't seem to have talked about this Ukrainian girlfriend with his family. I smiled and said, "I didn't listen to Ah Cheng's relative Lao Gao, Lao Gao didn't tell me what his relative's name was, he just said that he went to Moscow to join his relative." Later, Lao Gao called me after arriving in Moscow, Ah Cheng chatted with me for a long time on the phone, he told him how he got to Moscow, how he became a fallen master, how the Ukrainian girl saved him, and when the batch building was seized, the Ukrainian girl helped him escape again. When he called me, there was no result or explanation for the seizure of the wholesale building, and I still wanted to wait for me to call him after returning to Novosibirsk to ask what the situation was, I just met Brother Lin, you should know what the final result of the wholesale building is, right? Lao Lin said: "The batch building was seized and sealed, what other results and explanations can there be, the Russian police said that your goods were illegally smuggled, what can you do?" Where is there a place to reason in Russia? I called my brother before I left, and he said that the wholesale building could no longer sell goods, and everyone had not taken out the confiscated goods, and the money that had been confiscated unreasonably was even more difficult to get back, and they were robbing under the pretext of checking smuggled goods. My brother is going to buy a container at an ant market or rent a stall in Wittenham, and I'll settle down when I get there. I didn't ask my brother how Ah Cheng was, but I guess I have found a place to sell goods or am looking for a place. I said, "It seems that it will be difficult for me to contact Ah Cheng and them when I go back, unless they take the initiative to call me." After arriving in Moscow, Brother Lin, if you can meet Ah Cheng and them, help me bring a good one, I am very worried about him and Lao Gao. Lao Lin said: "Okay, my brother should know where they are, if you see Ah Cheng, I want him to call you." By the way, what did you just say that the Ukrainian girl helped him escape again? "I then told me how when Amon seized the wholesale store, how the Ukrainian girl cleverly pretended to be a customer who bought goods and hid Ah Cheng's money on herself, so that Ah Cheng escaped. Lao Lin sighed after listening to me, and said: "That Ukrainian girl is Ah Cheng's nobleman, she saved him twice, and she often comes over to help Ah Cheng sell goods, but Ah Cheng is usually good to her." I think that both Russian women and Ukrainian women are good, but the men here are not good, they are drunk and lazy, and they are insatiable, just look at those black-hearted Russian policemen who are like bandits, and you will know what kind of virtue the men of this nation are. I nodded in agreement with Lao Lin's statement.
I just heard Lao Lin say that his brother is going to buy a container in an ant market or rent a stall in Wittenham to sell goods, an ant market I have heard, an ant market is Izmailo market, which is wittily called an ant market by the Chinese. So what's going on with this Wittenham? It's the first time I've heard of it, is it also a humorous name of the Chinese? With questions, I asked Lao Lin: "Brother Lin, you just said that your brother is going to rent a stall in Wittenham, what is the matter with this Wittenham?" Is it also a new market? Lao Lin replied: "Wittenham is a large exhibition center in Moscow, with many pavilions, and during the former Soviet Union, fifteen republics had their own pavilions. Now the various exhibition halls have become shopping malls, and there seems to be a Taiwan pavilion and a Chinese pavilion inside, and many Chinese rent counters to sell goods inside. I see, but I still asked Lao Lin with some curiosity: "Brother Lin, is that what Vuitton Chinese Russian is called?" Lao Lin nodded and replied: "Yes, that's what Russian seems to be called, I know that the subway station there is called Wittenham." "Later, I'm going to ask how to write Super Brother Vuitton in Chinese? What does that mean exactly? I guess Wittenham should be an abbreviation.
I then asked Lao Lin: "Brother Lin, I know that an ant market should be mainly wholesale, so should it be mainly wholesale or retail in Wittenham?" Lao Lin replied: "Wittenham wholesale and retail are available, but wholesale is small wholesale, or retail-based, but the price there is relatively high, and it is very safe, it will not be seized by the police, but the rent is very high." If you want to sell goods, you have to buy containers in an ant market. When I arrived in Moscow, I studied with my brother, and my brother came to the two places together, both retail and wholesale, and then called my nephew and his daughter-in-law over to help. Hearing Lao Lin talk about this, Xiao Zhang blurted out on the side: "Wow! Brother Lin, your family is going into battle together, that's to make a fortune. Lao Lin laughed when he heard this, "Taking advantage of the fact that Lao Maozi's money is easy to make now, you have to hurry up and earn it, otherwise there will be no such shop in this village." "After listening to Lao Lin's words, I think that Moscow is not only a paradise for China's masters, but also a hell for China's masters. Whether it's heaven or hell, the Chinese people will survive in Moscow in various ways.
