In the corridor, I happened to meet the fat woman Aunt Biao next door who was so fat that she came back from grocery shopping, followed by three daughters: bringing a younger brother, coming a younger brother, and recruiting a younger brother.

Lin Li Shaoping greeted and said, "Aunt Biao, what good things did you buy back?" ”

Aunt Biao hurriedly covered her vegetable basket, put on a smile, and said, "Mrs. Lin, it's nothing, so I just bought some chicken, duck, fish, ginseng, abalone and swallow wings." It's almost dinner time, where are you going as a family? ”

Lin Li Shaoping said: "Today we don't eat at home, we go out for a big meal. Just eat Lu Yu Tea House and Peninsula Hotel! ”

……

After separating from Aunt Biao, Liangkun's family walked to the elevator door and waited for the elevator.

The innocent Lin Shufen asked, "Mommy, are we really going to Lu Yu Teahouse and Peninsula Hotel?" ”

Lin Li Shaoping touched Lin Shufen's head and said, "How is it possible?" Your eldest brother is about to become a bar owner, but he still has to save a little bit of life! ”

Liangkun asked, "Why is Aunt Biao still so fat after so many years?" ”

Lin Li Shaoping said: "It's not that she is bent on inheriting the family for Uncle Biao, she has gained ten pounds during pregnancy, and another ten pounds during confinement." There were three 'money-losing goods' before and after, and I couldn't think about it if I didn't get fat. ”

Lin Huaile said: "Mom, you haven't given birth to our three brothers and sisters, but you're not fat at all. ”

Lin Li Shaoping said: "Some people are easy to get fat. However, speaking of which, when the two families were neighbors, I still thought that in the future, the two families could form a family and bring a younger brother to be a wife for the two of you. ”

Lin Huaile said: "Some people say that what will become of my wife in the future, just look at my mother-in-law. That Aunt Biao, who wears glasses, is not Sven at all, and looks like she should have more than two hundred pounds of 'tonnage'. I don't want to marry a woman who will become a fat woman in the future. ”

The priest scolded: "You decrepit boy, you don't study well all day long, and you are still picking and choosing there, and if there is a woman willing to be your wife in the future, it will already be blessed by God." ”

Lin Li Shaoping also helped: "The master is right, although Aunt Biao is a little fatter, she has a good family." If you have a brother or a brother, you are definitely the best choice for a good wife. ”

Lin Huaile pursed his lips and said: "If she had a good family, she wouldn't have asked you to play mahjong all day long, and she would have bought the Mark Six lottery jackpot with a little money." ”

Lin Li Shaoping said: "She doesn't want to get rich overnight! Like Uncle Biao, relying on the dead salary of the TV station, he may have to live in public rental housing for the rest of his life, and he can't afford to buy a brick and tile. It's not like us, we're about to move into a mansion! ”

Bite~~~

The elevator is coming!

When they entered the elevator, Liangkun's family found that Aunt Biao was standing behind them.

Lin Li Shaoping smiled awkwardly and asked, "Aunt Biao, why are you here?" When did you come? ”

Aunt Biao said with a dark face: "I forgot to buy soy sauce for abalone sashimi, go downstairs and buy it again." I came when you just talked about 'losing money'. ”

In order to break the embarrassing atmosphere, Liangkun took out a thousand-yuan bill from his pocket, handed it to Aunt Biao, and said: "Aunt Biao, you must have a lot of experience after buying the Mark Six lottery for so many years." I want you to buy it for me. In the future, whatever number you buy, buy one for me. ”

Aunt Biao took the thousand-yuan bill, checked the authenticity over and over again, and asked in disbelief, "Is it really fake?" ”

Liangkun said: "Of course it's true. When you run out of money, you tell me and I'll give it to you again. ”

Aunt Biao put the thousand-yuan bill into her pocket and said, "You kid has a vision." ”

Liangkun asked again: "Aunt Biao, does Uncle Biao have any relatives who work in the police station, I think they look quite alike......

Hearing Liangkun's words, Aunt Biao took out the thousand-yuan bill in her pocket, fell into Liangkun's arms, and said with a different face: "Okay, I said why are you so kind, it turns out that you want to bribe senior police officers through me." Did you know that there is an Anti-Corruption Ordinance in Hong Kong? ”

Liang Kun pressed the thousand-yuan bill into Aunt Biao's hand again, and said, "Lei Rongbiao, from the West Kowloon Serious Crime Team!" I've known him for a long time, he's my good friend's uncle. I asked him because he and Uncle Biao did look alike. Aunt Biao, you misunderstood. I didn't bribe you, and you don't forget to buy my ticket, or you'll have to pay me your winnings if you don't. ”

Aunt Biao accepted the thousand-yuan bill and said, "Stinky boy, make it clear!" My husband's name is Lei Biao, and Lei Rongbiao is his second brother. ”

Liangkun said with a smile: "Then what my mother said about the marriage between the two families, you see ......?"

Aunt Biao said proudly: "Look at your performance." I just heard from your mother that you're a bar owner now. Is it true? You can't just say it on purpose to bluff me, right? ”

Lin Li Shaoping interjected and said, "How is it possible? If you don't believe me, we'll go to the bar tomorrow. ”

Aunt Biao said: "Of course I want to see it!" For more than ten years, I am also afraid that you will be deceived. ”

……

Lin Li Shaoping took his family to choose a hot pot restaurant called "backbone".

Once you are seated, order and start.

Liang Kun took a green vegetable from the hot pot, put it in the priest's bowl, and said, "Dad, you are from Dongxing, and Ni Kun was injured because of the competition with Dongxing. At this time, will it be a little embarrassing for you to go to see him? ”

The pastor said, "Visiting Ni Kun was not my impulse. Actually, I wanted to be a 'peacemaker'. Speaking of which, the smiling tiger Zhu Tao is also from Chaozhou, but his father and Guo Zhaohuang, the emperor of Dongxing, are old friends, so he did not join Hongxing, but joined Dongxing. There are Teochew people on both sides, and when they fight, it's so ugly. ”

Liangkun said: "As long as he is willing to show sincerity and pour tea and admit his mistakes, there is still something to talk about in this matter." Ni Kun is injured, as long as Dongxing gives face, Hong Xing will definitely be willing to borrow the slope to get off the donkey. ”

Liangkun was about to pick up vegetables, and found that Lin Huaile on the opposite side was listening to Liangkun and the pastor talking about the rivers and lakes with his ears pricked up, and he was listening attentively.

Liangkun put down his chopsticks and said to Lin Huaile: "Ah Lak, after you hear these things, your left ear goes in and your right ear goes out, you must not go out to talk about it, do you hear it?" ”

Lin Huaile said with interest: "I heard it." ”

Liangkun said: "If you go out and talk nonsense, it's easy to get into trouble." No one can protect you! ”

Lin Huaile muttered: "It's a big deal, just like you, run away to Taiwan." ”

Liangkun grabbed the chopsticks, knocked on Lin Huaile's head, and said, ", you also know that I'm running away!" If it weren't for Ni Kun being shot in a big circle, if it weren't for me changing my name to Ni Yongxiao, I would still be hiding in Taiwan and dare not come back to Hong Kong. ”

The atmosphere at the table was sluggish.

Lin Li Shaoping hurriedly came out to play the round and said, "Your brother is still young, you teach him slowly!" ”

"You don't care!" The pastor also put down the dishes and chopsticks and said to Lin Huaile: "I have been rolling on this river and lake, I have had enough, I have suffered a lot, and I can best understand the warmth and coldness of human feelings." Only if we scold you enough at home, others won't scold you anymore when you go out. You have to hurt your self-esteem, you are such a big offspring, you have to beat all your self-esteem, only in this way, we have bullied you enough, far better than letting outsiders bully you after you go out, we feel a little better. We took care of you at home, far better than when you went out to look like a shrimp and shrimp bully, and being crackled by others and knocking your mouth back made us feel distressed. Because, we have scolded everything we should scold, we have taken care of everything we should have, you understand everything, and you won't suffer a loss when you go out. We don't care about you, we spoil you, in fact, the unlucky sun is ahead. Because not everyone on the rivers and lakes is your father and your eldest brother. ”

……

When I went to the bar the next morning, the pastor didn't go, but Lin Huaile, who was supposed to go to school, appeared in the team, as well as a few good neighbors such as Aunt Biao.

The group came to Mong Kok together.

Mong Kok is located in Yau Tsim Mong District, the middle of the Kowloon Peninsula and the northern end of Nathan Road, which is an area of early development in Kowloon, most famous for its typhoon shelters and temples. It is not difficult to find traditional shops such as old-fashioned cake shops, shrine shops, mahjong parlors and other traditional shops in the streets and alleys here, and most of the shops are small-scale operations, and there are some of the oldest streets in Hong Kong, which are completely different from the modern scene of Nathan Road.

Bounded by Nathan Road, shopping malls are concentrated on the east side and residential areas are on the west side.

Mong Kok has a well-developed transportation system, with buses, trains, subways, and special minibuses running overnight.

On holidays, the area east of Nathan Road is often crowded.

But in the morning, there was no business in the bar, only the bar manager who handled the handover with Liangkun, the bar staff, and the mother Sang and the singer who ate at the bar.

Liangkun said to Lin Li Shaoping: "Mom, you let these neighbors take a look around first, and we will go to the manager's room and handle the handover with the manager." ”

Liang Kun, Lin Li Shaoping, and Lin Huaile walked into the manager's room, and the manager had already sorted out his personal belongings, and there was no trace of residual personal imprints in the entire manager's room.

After a few people sat down on the sofa, the manager took a folder and handed it to Liangkun, saying, "Mr. Ni, Brother Wen has sent someone to complete all the formalities, as long as you sign these documents, from the moment you sign, this bar will belong to you." Don't know what else you'd like to know? ”

Liangkun said: "I've never run a bar, why don't you stay and help me for a while, and then you quit after I get started?" ”

The manager said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ni, Brother Wen has already arranged other jobs for me and is still waiting for me." In fact, running a bar is very simple, not much different from running a tea restaurant. I believe that with Mr. Ni's ingenuity, he will soon be able to stabilize the bar's business. ”

Liangkun asked, "Who were the previous consumers of this bar?" How's the business? ”

The manager said: "The bar is open in Mong Kok, how can there be bad business?" It's just that the consumption level here is relatively low, and most of them are young people in jeans, drinking some wine for twenty or thirty yuan. ”

Liangkun asked, "What about the wine?" ”

Lin Li Shaoping said: "Yes, bars, bars, the most profitable thing is alcohol, for example, a glass of wine, the bar sells for 20 or 30 yuan a glass, the cost is only 3 or 5 yuan, and a cup earns more than 20 yuan." ”

The manager said: "The supplier is also Hongxing's own people, and they will take the initiative to contact them before the inventory is exhausted." ”

Liangkun said: "I saw that there was a performance stage in the bar, in addition to the guests who were interested in singing and singing, were there any professional performers before?" ”

The manager said: "The turnover of resident singers in the bar is not very large, and a singer can sing in a bar for several years without changing people. Therefore, it is generally necessary to recruit resident singers when a new store opens, and if the singers leave their jobs, they will introduce others in advance. Before, it was Sister Meiyun and her two daughters who were stationed here, and I called her in a moment to get to know her. ”

Liangkun said: "What about watching the scene? Who is in charge of the spectators here? ”

The manager said: "This is Hongxing's field, and the one watching the scene is Brother Feixiong, the hall master of Hongxing Wangjiao. He probably hasn't gotten up yet. ”

Hearing that Feixiong hadn't gotten up yet, Lin Huaile was not happy, and said loudly: "Big brother, if you take over this field today, he won't come, and it will be clear that he will not give you face." ”

Liangkun pressed Lin Huaile's knee and said: "Mong Kok is a 'city that never sleeps', start work at night and sleep during the day, this is nothing abnormal, don't make a fuss, don't let people treat you as a bun." ”

The manager also helped: "Mr. Ni is right. ”

Liangkun asked, "In addition to drinking, are there any other pastimes in that scene?" ”

The manager said: "We have goldfish and wooden fish here, and the leader is outside." ”

Liangkun asked again: "Is there any medicine for sale?" ”

The manager said: "This was Brother Wen's own business before, and no Taoist friends are allowed to chase dragons here." So, no one sells medicine here either. ”

Liangkun nodded and said, "Okay, that's all you know." Thank you! ”

The manager said politely, "Everyone can have a meal together at noon, I'll please." ”

Liangkun said to Lin Li Shaoping: "Mom, you also know that I haven't been in Hong Kong for a long time. After I'm gone, will you be able to hold up this field? - Don't talk about Laat, he definitely can't do it now. ”

Lin Li Shaoping shook his head and said, "If it was ten years ago, I would definitely do it." However, now that I'm older, I can't stay up all night, I can't figure it out. Besides, I still have to cook for my little sister. ”

Liangkun turned to the manager and said, "Among the waiters, who has been working here the longest?" Please call him in. ”

The manager said: "The one who has been working the longest is Ah Can, nicknamed 'Tie Tou Gong'. I called him in. ”

- The name "Ah Can" comes from the name of Liao Weixiong as Cheng Can in the TVB TV series "People in the Net", in which Ah Can is a new immigrant from the mainland who has an ignorant, rustic and eager personality, and makes a sensation because he wants to eat 30 hamburgers in one go. In this regard, "Ah Can" has also become a common name for Hong Kong people to immigrants from the mainland.
