Chapter 281: Communicating in English
found the father-in-law, Xu Fugui also fell a big stone in his heart, and then the father-in-law helped him contact the relationship to apply for a passport abroad.
While waiting for the passport to be processed, Xu Fugui also went to visit Chen Ji Restaurant.
The restaurant covers an area of not small, in the Xiangjiang River, where every inch of land is expensive, it is enough to say that it is spacious, the building as a whole tends to be antique, and even the service staff inside are wearing cheongsam, Chen Liping knows how to attract the attention of guests.
The food inside is indeed mainland cuisine, but the taste has been slightly changed to make it closer to the taste of Xiangjiang.
At the same time, he also saw Chen Liping in a suit and leather shoes, speaking a somewhat awkward Mandarin and talking and laughing with some guests, looking a proper and successful person.
Xu Fugui thought of the terrible housing prices in later generations, and found an opportunity to say to his father-in-law, "If I have any surplus after my dividends are invested, buy some houses and put them away." ”
"Houses in Xiangjiang are not cheap." Chen Liping sighed with emotion, he and Su Yu are still living in a rental house, not because they can't afford to buy a house, but because they can't afford a good house.
His philosophy is like this, if you want to buy, you have to buy it all at once, it is uncomfortable to buy an ordinary house to live in, and he does not dare to withdraw too much money from the restaurant.
Xu Fugui listened to his words, remembered the housing prices in the 21st century in the future, and twitched the corners of his eyes, when was the housing prices not cheap, ordinary people can't afford to buy a house after working all their lives.
How can it be like now, you can buy a house for a few hundred dollars cheaply, where can you find such a good thing in the future?
Chen Liping didn't think much about it, and agreed casually, for some reason, he subconsciously believed what this son-in-law said.
In the past two days, he has inquired about a lot of things in the mainland, and the form is getting more and more serious, and there seems to be a big move next year, but fortunately he ran early.
While accompanying Chen Liping, Xu Fugui did not forget Wang Wenchang, he took the time to go back and told him that he had found his father-in-law.
Wang Wenchang seemed to have come back from running a boat at night, his eyes were bloodshot, but he still nodded happily, Chen Liping he naturally knew him, and often heard him described as an old fox from his father.
Xu Fugui looked at him for a day without a meal, and couldn't help but say, "Why don't I take you to meet my father-in-law?" Let you arrange a stable job for you. ”
With a stable job, this is why a woman is willing to follow you to get married and have children, and his age is not young.
Wang Wenchang was stunned for a moment, quickly shook his head, and said: "Fugui, don't hurt me, I'm fine now, I don't want to find any bullshit work." ”
Xu Fugui couldn't help but persuade: "Why would someone else follow you like you?" ”
Wang Wenchang looked at him suspiciously, "Why do other girls follow me?" ”
Xu Fugui was speechless and supported his forehead, "Don't you want to marry a daughter-in-law, have a few children, and start a family?" ”
Wang Wenchang hurriedly shook his head, "I don't want to, I don't want to think at all, what's so good about women, I don't have enough money for myself, why should I find a woman to spend my money." ”
"Besides, if I marry a daughter-in-law, then do I have to buy a wedding house, you don't know how expensive the house is, don't I have to die of exhaustion?"
"Besides, you think that women are all good things, and you have to take care of them here and there, didn't I marry a bodhisattva and come back."
"Fugui, you see how chic I am now, I don't have to eat the whole family hungry, and I don't have to look at other people's faces, I tell you, I'm alive, I don't want to get married in this life, let those bullshit women get out!"
After hearing this, Xu Fugui was stunned, and he felt that what he said inexplicably made sense.
The next second, he shook his head, forget it, everyone has their own ambitions, Wang Wenchang is estimated to be living too transparently.
He didn't think there was anything wrong with starting a family, he couldn't do without Jiazhen and his two children now, and everything was for them.
Wang Wenchang didn't go with him to see Chen Liping, but Xu Fugui still told him the address of Chen Ji Restaurant, and if he encountered any difficulties in the future, he could go to Chen Liping for help.
When Wang Wenchang heard this, he put his arm around his shoulders and said with a smile: "Fugui, I knew that you were my best brother." ”
With Chen Liping's help, the passport to go abroad was quickly processed, Xu Fugui did not stop in Xiangjiang, carried a new cowhide suitcase bought by Su Yu, bought a plane ticket, and got on a civil aviation plane to San Francisco.
This is the first time Xu Fugui has taken a plane in his previous life and this life, the plane first taxied on the ground, and then the nose of the plane cocked, like a bird, and rushed diagonally into the sky.
Xu Fugui sat by the window, clutching the seat belt tightly in his hand, feeling a feeling of weightlessness coming, and couldn't help but close his eyes.
When he opened his eyes again, the plane had already come to a high altitude, and he looked out the window, and the blue sky was clearly visible, as if it was close at hand.
The white clouds seem to pave the way below, giving people the idea of finding out.
He remembered that it was cloudy today, but he didn't expect to see the blue sky in the sky, and he looked at the scenery outside the window obsessively, feeling that his vision had grown again.
After a while, Xu Fugui lost his sense of direction and didn't know where the plane had gone.
The inside of the plane is very quiet, half of the passengers are from Xiangjiang, half are from other countries, and a little communication is in English, and they wear suits and leather shoes, which looks polite.
Xu Fugui was wearing an ordinary light blue suit, wearing a large silver watch on his left wrist, and his expression was indifferent, looking similar to the people around him.
Next to him sat a beautiful blonde woman, who was from an unknown country.
The scenery was a little tired, and when he was about to close his eyes and rest, the blonde beauty next to him suddenly asked in English, "Excuse me, are you from Xiangjiang?" ”
Xu Fugui glanced at her, nodded, and said YES.
"I feel that you are very different from other Xiangjiang people." The blonde beauty's speech was a little fast, and Xu Fugui reacted before he understood.
Since she took the initiative to talk, Xu Fugui communicated with her in English, and became familiar with communicating in English as soon as possible.
It wasn't until he opened his mouth to speak that he realized that studying in books and speaking to himself were completely different things, and people didn't care about grammar and subject-verb-object when communicating in English, and they spoke quite freely.
On the contrary, Xu Fugui made a lot of jokes, and he didn't say anything about his accent, and many sentences could be finished in a few words, but he used a large string of rhetoric to make the blonde beauty smile from ear to ear.
Xu Fugui also knew his own shortcomings, and persevered in communicating and practicing with her.
From this, he also learned that the blonde beauty is Danish, a journalist by profession, and this time the destination is the same as him, going to San Francisco.
Perhaps out of the instinct of a reporter, the blonde beauty asked some sensitive topics, Xu Fugui answered very cautiously, and if he didn't want to answer, he said he didn't understand.
