Those Things (4)
When I went to the hotel today, I thought it was just noon, and it was estimated that there were more guests, so I decided to go through the back door. When we designed the back door, we deliberately set the exit on the second floor here, as well as the other two side doors, so that the guests on the second floor have to pass through the hall on the first floor after eating.
But the first floor was not connected to this back door, and the hall on the first floor was separated by a ceiling-length wall.
This is the intention of the contractor, and their reason is that they cannot let customers in through the back door, and if they come in from there, it is "ill-gotten wealth", which is not very lucky. Although I don't believe in this set, I believe that there is some truth to it, not to mention that there is really no need to set up gates in all four directions on the ground floor, so it was built as they say.
When I passed the second floor, there were only a few people dining, and there were two tables in total. This floor is not selling food, but fame, and many people come here just to try it, or to prefer exotic flavors, and the dosage is very small. Recently, the business has been slightly better than my sister, and many businessmen from other places are willing to come to this floor.
After taking a turn on the second floor, I decided to go downstairs and go to the kitchen on the first floor from a side hallway. It's the most annoying place for the old pig, it's messy, and it's dirty.
Along the corridor, through the second floor, to the staircase to the hall on the first floor, just about to turn, suddenly saw a very uncomfortable scene: Sister Qing was sitting on the only sofa in the corner, and the worker Anan was squatting in front of Sister Qing and buried his head between her legs, looking very forgetful; Sister Qing also looked focused, staring at Anan's head motionlessly with her head down, and making "ah" and "ah" sounds from time to time. Seeing this scene, I believe most people can guess what they are doing here. This Anan is very young, and he used to be a long-term worker in our family, responsible for the repair and maintenance of several machines. Later, I told several other people that I wanted to go out to see and see, and after some rhetoric, I agreed that they would go out and have a look alone, and then make plans after finding a satisfactory job.
It's wonderful on the outside, but it's brutal at the same time. This is what the worker who went out whispered to them when he returned. So, they stayed with me.
I admire Anan more, not only do things seriously, but also have a fierce energy, and vow not to give up until the goal is achieved, otherwise I would not have worked hard to keep him in the first place.
When our hotel was ready to recruit people, Anan told me to see if I could find another driver, and he wanted to do things in the hotel. This request was granted to him, but the salary offered was not as high as when he used to drive, because he worked as a waiter. At that time, he wanted to go to the kitchen, and I said that since you want to come to the hotel, you must be to see more things and learn to deal with people, so you shouldn't stay in the kitchen, right? In that case, you might as well keep driving! Anan said yes. I thought that he thought that the salary of the waiter was low and not ideal, so I encouraged him and said that it was not too late to earn more money when he learned something later.
Because I have been working in our house for a long time, I am very familiar with us, and we have gifts for the New Year's holidays. Of course, he is also very familiar with Sister Qing, but Sister Qing has always said that he is like a boy who doesn't grow up, like a younger brother.
The former sister and younger brother are now good, and they are actually "engaged".
I didn't bother them in time, because they quickly shifted their "positions", and the two of them helped each other to walk in the direction of the bathroom.
Grandma's, this is worth it!!
I was angry, but I still couldn't bear it and didn't vent it, as the saying goes, "catch the rape in bed", I thought that it would be more convincing to arrest them when the time came.
When they went to the bathroom, they did not enter the men's or women's restroom, but stopped at the outside washing place and stood shoulder to shoulder, one left and one right. The two of them still hung their heads down, as focused as they had just looked. I wonder if they are not afraid of being seen here. Can you do that while standing? …… Anyway, I can't figure it out.
While I was thinking about it, I suddenly remembered the voice of "Hello boss" behind me. It turned out that an employee came in to use the toilet.
Of course, I couldn't sneak in anymore, so I pretended to be casual and walked over and asked casually: What are you doing?
Sister Qing said that you came just in time, come and help get it, this cat somehow injured its leg.
Cat?
Sister Qing said that she had just seen the cat's leg bleeding at the entrance of the building, so she hugged it and sat on the sofa to wrap it. I wanted to find someone to help, but those girls were timid and didn't dare to see blood; It just so happened that Anan was delivering food to the second floor, so Sister Qing stopped him to help out, just now Anan was bandaging the cat's legs, and Sister Qing teased the cat like a child; This is not bandaged, so take it down and wash it.
I see! I couldn't help but blurt it out.
What do you think? Sister Qing asked suddenly.
I turned around and shirked and said go to the toilet first, you guys get it slowly.
I'm glad I didn't rush up angrily at the bend of the staircase, otherwise the scene would have been awkward. The most important thing is that when I go home, I will definitely be educated by Sister Qing's big education.

Today, Li Tianwang called and said that he wanted to invite us to get together. "We", referring to me and Sister Qing, as well as Brother Monkey, Li Tianwang said that he hadn't drunk together for so many years, and now he came to get together again. Of course, it's not simply eating and drinking, because Brother Monkey and Brother Monkey have already mentioned to him about the contracting market before. Li Tianwang's attitude is that since his old colleague has that meaning, he must give priority.
Li Tianwang's location is in our hotel. Brother Monkey said that you Li Tianwang is biased, why don't you choose the place closer to our Huaguo Mountain? Li Tianwang said that Brother Pig not only has a good environment here, but also meets everyone's taste; Besides, "fertilizer and water don't flow into outsiders' fields", this little money should be earned by Brother Pig. I wonder if Li Tianwang will really be able to get people, since they have already chosen me to be here with my old pig, and what does he have to pay? It is estimated that even if he has that intention, where will the old pig have the face, otherwise he will definitely be charged with "six relatives do not admit it". But don't worry, the money for this meal will definitely be credited to his Li Tianwang, and it will be pulled out of the rent when the time comes.
Sister Qing didn't come over during the meal, but just said that there was something wrong and walked away. Yes, such an occasion is not suitable for her.
As soon as he sat down, Li Tianwang looked like a host, and said in a very domineering tone: Let's just talk about the old days today, and don't talk about business!
He was the first to say it, but at the same time he was the first to break it.
As soon as he drank two bottles of wine, Li Tianwang's words became significantly more, and he talked about the market as he spoke. Brother Monkey said that he had broken the rules and was going to be punished for drinking, but Li Tianwang was forced to drink several large bottles of Brother Monkey in succession before he would stop. Li Tianwang said that since it is your brother and sister who want to contract, then I, Totahan, have nothing else to say, and give you priority unconditionally; But I'm just going to ask, are you serious or are you kidding me?
Brother Monkey patted him on the shoulder and said that if we fool you, you don't have to call you one by one to ask you, do you think we are full and have nothing to do?
Li Tianwang said "I'm sorry" and "I'm sorry" again and again, saying that as long as it is true, it will be fine; This meal is the beginning of our cooperation. After speaking, I was ready to call the waiter to come over and pay the bill.
I said Brother Li, we haven't finished eating yet!
Haven't finished eating yet? Okay, let's wait a minute.
I thought that this Li Tianwang was really a master of mixed rice, and he actually used the trick of taking the lead to deal with my old pig; Fortunately, I was mentally prepared for a long time, and it was nothing more than a meal.
Chatting and chatting, we talked about the pagoda that Li Tianwang used to hold up, because Li Tianwang was able to have today's creation, to a large extent, thanks to the prestige of the pagoda.
Tota was first proposed by Brother Monkey, and as soon as I mentioned it, he asked the King of Heaven, hey, did the emperor take back your Tota when you came down?
Li Tianwang said fart, how could it be that he took it back if he wanted to? Natota has been with me for thousands of years, and has reached the point where the breath is connected, and not everyone can use it; Except for me, Li Tianwang, everyone has children's toys in their hands.
Brother Monkey said that you put my grandson in it back then, and I kicked it away, how did you get it done later? Li Tianwang mentioned this to me before, saying that it was repaired in Taibai Lao'er's alchemy furnace, and it also used up the vitality of Tianwang Sancheng, and later Li Tianwang relied on the pagoda in his hand to gain a foothold in the construction world. Listening to them, as long as it is the house handled by Li Tianwang, it will definitely not fall, because there is a pagoda in his hand.
Li Tianwang said that it was pure nonsense for people to say, where does our pagoda have such great ability; But this is a good thing, the name of the King of Tota has been called, and business is more prosperous than everyone else.
Li Tianwang said that in fact, what people need most of the time is not a solid backer, but a support point for faith; This can also be used to explain why people behave in extraordinary circumstances in extraordinary circumstances......
Brother Monkey interrupted the king's talking, and said that you don't rely on the old and sell the old, if it wasn't for my old grandson's mercy, your broken tower would have been unable to even find the ashes, and what did you say about relying on it to eat; In this way, it is my grandson who has fulfilled you, otherwise, you would still stand next to the emperor and do it all day long!
Li Tianwang heard Brother Monkey say this, not only did he not object, but he seemed to agree with Brother Monkey's statement, saying that it was really like that, without your grandson Monkey, I, Li Tianwang, would not have made the first windfall.
The "first windfall" that Li Tianwang refers to refers to the first money he earned after coming down to the heavenly court. He said that he had almost used up the money he had just been down for a few days, and he couldn't find a way to make money at that time, so he was in a hurry. In the end, he had an idea, and carefully packaged the pieces that Brother Monkey had broken his tota before, which had not been fully recombined into the tower, and then took them to the auction to sell, what he never expected was that the people participating in the auction would raise the reserve price again and again, resulting in the final price actually exceeding the sum of all his previous salaries in the Heavenly Court for thousands of years. The king also said that he found a few more pieces of fragments later and sold them in the same way, so he had the money to make a book later, otherwise he might still be drinking the northwest wind.
I guess it's called "a blessing in disguise."
As soon as he spoke, Brother Monkey said that I was pretending to be Sven, just like he used to say that I was pretending to be serious.
In the end, Li Tianwang was so drunk that it was impossible for him to remember to pay the bill or something like that; Of course, I can't let Brother Monkey be buried, what do you say, we are all brothers who were born and died, and now sitting together, where can I not be a landlord? So, without further ado, this meal is my old pig's, just as I expected at the beginning.

So far, the metamorphosis has been tickling, never touching the most fundamental things, and it seems to be far away. Sister Qing is not worried, mainly because she is afraid that her parents will be too worried, and she is thinking that I am fooling them. For this reason, I once went to their house with gifts to explain to them, saying that it was not that my old pig was not active, but that there were other reasons.
As for the reason, in addition to the technical unreliability, there is also the problem of funding. Our hotel has just started, not to mention making a profit, and even a tenth of the money invested in it has not been recovered. The bank has not yet paid the arrears; The share of the oil field has been used for the hotel; The money in Sister Qing's hand has been lost again, although the person has been caught, but the person is penniless, and it is impossible to return it to us in a short time. In this way, even if you get all the money, you will still only be able to fill in the holes you dug before. As for the crops in the fields and the share of the oil fields, they are not something that can be cashed out in a short period of time, so they can't produce much money for a while.
Sister Qing's parents gave me this statement: No matter what, as long as you remember the original promise!
I said that I must be sure, once I have money, I will hurry up to find a way to deform, so that you don't let the two elders be angry with others, according to the current form, it is estimated that it will not be until next year to start the actual situation, and the deformation can have further development. Otherwise, even if Dr. Zhong's experiment is guaranteed, I don't dare to come up with so much money at one time, otherwise the future financial road may be cut off.
Since the last time the land elder and Taibai Lao'er met, the two of them often got together to drink two sips, and sometimes they would pull me together to drink. Maybe it's because they're older, so they always talk with each other, and sometimes I can't understand what they're talking about, so I just have to follow and nod from time to time; I don't know if they have a heart or what, so bullshit two people can still understand, this is a question I haven't figured out, I don't know if my old pig will be the same as them when he gets old, there is always a match to speak, if that's the case, I believe it will be more troublesome.
Taibai Lao'er has always lived in the house on our Gao Laozhuang, and the land Lao'er sometimes spends the night there. One day, the old man of the land said to me mysteriously, Bajie, did you hide your private money in Gao Laozhuang's house?
I said no, our family's money has always been kept by Sister Qing, and I never asked.
The old man said that you don't pretend to be marshal, we are not outsiders, so why don't we say it, we won't tell your sister Qing.
It seems that they don't believe in my old pig, so I said to them angrily, believe it or not, don't believe it!
Regarding the issue of private money, frankly speaking, I have only hidden the old pig once, that is, when we learned the scriptures. I've worked so hard along the way, I can't leave some money to buy myself something delicious. So on one occasion, I secretly hid the five coins of silver given to me by the female benefactor and stuffed them in my ears; He just handed over the fasting meal to the master. Maybe it's because my old pig didn't have the life to get rich, and he didn't even keep the five coins of silver, so he was deceived by Brother Monkey, and he said in front of the master that I was not in the right mood. I haven't saved any money since.
There are two reasons why I haven't saved private money again, it is under pressure during the learning period, and it is difficult to explain it if I am afraid of revealing my stuffing again with the experience of the past; It is not necessary to come back after taking the scriptures, because the money is stored in the bank card, although it is kept by Sister Qing, but without my autograph, no one can make a large cash transaction. Therefore, no matter what aspect I have, there is no need to save private money, let alone that I really have no private money.
Seeing my seriousness, Taibai Lao'er and the land Lao'er finally believed that I was innocent. But the old man of the land seemed very strange and said, but how do I see that this well looks like there is money hidden?
That well still existed when I was in Gao Laozhuang, and when I came back, I saw that it was still there, and I couldn't bear to fill it up, so I stayed. However, now the well water has long since dried up, and there is only some rainwater flowing around the well.
It didn't look like a joke to see the old man of the land, so I asked him how he knew?
The old man of the land said that it depends on feeling.
After that, the old man of the land told me to believe in him, and went to invite a few workers to come and go down to the bottom of the well, and there must be something of value in it. I called a few workers over to help, and at first they were scared, but after the two old men assured me that there was nothing to be afraid of.
Since I came back to do things on my own, I have become much more courageous, and I am no longer afraid of wolves and tigers like I used to learn from the scriptures, and I feel that it is very meaningful to experience something that I have not experienced before. Therefore I said to them, "Do not be afraid, I will go down to be your companion." It is not unreasonable for me to think about what the old man said, although this well does not look good, but it is indeed a good place to hide things; Then I thought, if there is anything valuable, then didn't my old pig miss the first look at them? It's not a good deal to think about.
Since you're waiting on it, it's better to go down and see for yourself.
