Chapter 225, that's all
When I came to the vicinity of Huang Xintong's house, it was not very late.
I went straight up with the fruits, biscuits and tea I bought on the road.
"Hello, Huang Xintong is not there?"
Yang Xiaole stood at the door, looked at the wide open door, and shouted inside.
Through the piles of things in the hallway, you can also see the scene of the family sitting together watching the black and white TV.
"Brother Jing......"
Stretched out his head and looked at it, in fact, he didn't need to watch it to know which TV it was, the Legend of the Condor Heroes.
It seems to be the earliest version.
shouted twice, but didn't seem to hear any sound, Yang Xiaole shouted again.
At this time, Huang Xintong's aunt seemed to hear the movement and stood up and looked.
"Who is this?"
Muttered, stood up, and walked towards the door.
When she came closer, after seeing his face, she reacted: "Oh~~ It's you, that...... That ......"
After talking for a long time, I didn't call out my name.
Yang Xiaole smiled when he saw this: "Hello Auntie, I'm Yang Hao, is Huang Xintong at home?" ”
"Oh, oh, yes, yes! Tongtong, Tongtong...... Come in and sit down! ”
Huang Yujing hurriedly shouted inside.
Then he greeted him.
Hearing the movement, Huang Xintong, who was wearing a double ponytail, stood up.
It is estimated that he was far away and did not react, and only when he arrived at the door did he react: "It's Ling!" What are you doing here? ”
"Hehe, I didn't walk around the city today, and I came here today to take a look at you, and thank you."
Huang Xintong smiled a little shyly: "I'...... What do I have to be thankful for! ”
"Come in and sit down! Sit down and talk about it! ”
Seeing this, Huang Xintong's aunt urged him to come in with a smile.
Hearing this, Huang Xintong nodded, and then walked back, because there can only be one person in the corridor.
Yang Xiaole also followed.
After coming in, there were two people sitting in the room of the part-time bedroom in the living room, a man and a woman, the man was seventeen or eighteen years old, and the woman was about fifteen or sixteen.
Both of them glanced at him curiously.
"Get up!"
Huang Yujing pushed the girl next to her and asked her to give up her seat.
The girl was a little impatient to hear this, but she gave way to a nearby log and sat down.
Then he continued to watch TV, ignoring a few people.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole handed the things over: "Auntie, a little heart." ”
"Oh, don't be so polite! Sit down! I'm going to make a glass of water! ”
Huang Yujing politely spoke.
I put it away and went over to soak in boiling water.
"No need, I'll be gone in a moment, Auntie!"
"You're welcome!"
After saying that, he squeezed out of place.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole didn't say anything more.
After looking at it, the two two people who looked at him curiously from time to time nodded with a smile and said hello.
Then he smiled at Huang Xintong next to him: "What about your uncle?" Not at home? ”
"No, I'm playing cards downstairs!"
Huang Xintong smiled, and then said indifferently: "You don't have to be so polite, I didn't help you much." ”
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Don't be so polite!" Miss Huang! ”
I made a joke in half-baked Cantonese.
"Puff~~"
Suddenly, the little girl next to her smiled: "Cousin, this friend of yours is so funny!" ”
Huang Xintong was also laughing there.
"Come, it's time for tea!"
Huang Yujing smiled and put a glass in front of him.
"Thank you, Auntie!"
Yang Xiaole thanked him.
"You're welcome!"
After Huang Yujing put it down, he sat next to him with a smile.
After looking at it, he asked with a smile, "Have you found a place to live?" ”
"Well, I found it."
Huang Yujing nodded lightly when she heard this: "Oh, I've found it, have you found a good job?" ”
I heard my niece say that her man actually asked the other party for 200 Hong Kong dollars, and she was still a little embarrassed.
Those who come from the mainland basically don't have much money.
Yang Xiaole smiled and shook his head: "This is not true!" ”
"Oh, there are quite a few new textile and garment factories in our neighborhood! You can check it out around here! ”
Huang Yujing opened her mouth and spoke.
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole nodded: "Okay, thank you, Auntie, I'll take a look then!" ”
It seems that the light industry on Hong Kong Island has always been dominated by the textile industry, and it was not until after the reform that the cheap labor force on Hong Kong Island began to lose its advantage and moved to the mainland one after another.
In his memory, at its peak, four out of ten people were engaged in textile related work.
Yang Xiaole just politely.
But in Huang Yujing's opinion, he thought he hadn't found any good job yet.
Then he smiled: "You can work in the factory first, and you will change it when you find a good job in the future!" Don't look at the many textile factories on Hong Kong Island, but many of them closed down not long after they opened! I'll introduce you to one! ”
Yang Xiaole smiled awkwardly when he heard this.
And Huang Xintong also nodded in approval: "Well, my aunt is right, the factory here on Hong Kong Island has built a lot in the past two years, and if you want to find a factory with good benefits, it is better for my aunt to know better." ”
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole nodded.
"Well, good! I'll check it out tomorrow! ”
Then a few people chatted for a while.
Yang Xiaole also watched TV from time to time.
Looking at this black-and-white TV, his thoughts also returned to the scene when he was a child, when it was time to eat in the orphanage, a group of people gathered in front of the black-and-white TV to watch TV.
At that time, the happiest time was watching TV.
However, he also knew that this TV set was also a very valuable thing on Hong Kong Island.
More than 800 Hong Kong dollars per unit.
On top of the house, more than one-fifth of the price.
After all, there are only more than 4,000 houses in this house.
A few people chatted casually for a while, and when they saw that Yang Xiaole was finished the movie, they offered to leave.
Seeing this, Huang Xintong sent him to the door.
"Yang Hao?"
After going downstairs, I was about to leave with the cart when I heard the sound of shouting behind me.
Yang Xiaole turned back curiously.
"Huang Xintong? What's wrong? ”
Huang Xintong came down and was surprised when he saw that Yang Xiaole actually had a bicycle.
Then he reacted and shook his head embarrassedly: "It's okay, it's okay." ”
Seeing her expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Yang Xiaole smiled: "Say, what's embarrassing?" I don't have any friends on Hong Kong Island, you are one, just say anything! ”
This is not very polite.
Huang Xintong's kind gesture before, especially that sentence, she also escaped from that side.
It makes him feel very kind.
Even without her, I can still find someone to help here.
But she is indeed the first and only friend here, not even Huang Xintong, at most half.
"My aunt said that you may be embarrassed, let me take you to the nearby factory to see, if you want to go in, she can help ask, she is more familiar with this piece!"
Huang Xintong stood there with his hands behind his back, and after speaking, he looked at his car, and then smiled embarrassedly: "You just came here, you can buy a bicycle so soon, you shouldn't need help!" ”
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole took a look at his car.
Suddenly, it was all of a sudden.
The class divide here on Hong Kong Island is very serious, the rich are especially rich, and cars are running all over the place.
But I've seen a place to sell bicycles before.
There are still many poor people who can't afford to buy bicycles.
He felt that the living standards of Hong Kong Island at this time were similar to those in the mainland in the eighties and nineties, and the bicycle should be considered a big item here.
Then he patted the car and smiled: "Didn't you see that this is an old car?" Buy a substitute car and run errands. Why don't you show me? But it's so late, okay? ”
There is no kindness to thank Absolute.
didn't pretend to say how rich he was.
"No problem! Not far ahead, I'll take you to a big factory. It's very profitable, my aunt used to work there! She can help you ask. ”
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled, anyway, he didn't have anything to do.
For a while, I will also wander around here.
patted the car and smiled: "Come on, take me to see!" ”
Then the two of them rode their bikes and followed her instructions and rushed straight to the nearby streets.
The buildings in this area are not very high, very few are about ten storeys, most of them are about five storeys, and some brick houses and wooden houses.
Especially in the direction of the suburbs, there are more wooden houses.
Walking on the road, Yang Xiaole smiled and asked, "Miss Huang, are your parents at home?" Is there anyone else? ”
"I have a younger brother! I will go to high school this year, and when I graduate next year and find a job, I will take my younger brother over to junior high school here! There is still a gap between the education level there and the city! ”
Huang Xintong looked at the sky and said with a smile.
Yang Xiaole smiled: "Oh, then you come here, do you still have a mission?" Isn't it right to give your brother a front stop? ”
But what makes him strange is that Huang Xintong is a girl, she can go to high school over there, and her family conditions should be good.
Why did you come here?
You know, the situation over there isn't so dire right now.
But he wasn't too embarrassed to ask.
Huang Xintong straightened the big braid on his chest and smiled: "Yes, it's not a way to live in my aunt!" My dad wants me to get a good job here so that my brother can go to college. ”
"Oh, that's a big job! Is it easy to find a job at the high school level here? ”
Yang Xiaole made a joke, and then asked with a smile.
Patriarchy, you can't escape anywhere.
Huang Xintong shook his head with a smile: "It's hard to say, it depends on luck, if you're lucky, you can find an easier clerical job, if you're unlucky, then enter the factory~"
Yang Xiaole smiled.
I wanted to say something, but suddenly asked her, "Oh, by the way, I want to ask you something!" ”
"What's the matter?"
"Do you know that Lychee Kok is not far from here?"
Huang Xintong nodded directly when he heard this: "Lychee Corner? It's so close to here! Don't ride for 10 minutes! ”
Hearing this, Yang Xiaole's eyes lit up: "So close? Why don't you take me there, I have a friend around here, but I don't know him. ”
"Where?"
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole told her the address: "Lychee Kok ......"
After listening, Huang Xintong nodded: "I don't know the specifics, but you can inquire about it." ”
"Hey, okay, then you can take me over to have a look."
"So, aren't you going to the garment factory?"
"I'm not going."
Hearing this, Huang Xintong nodded, "Then you ride along this road, and I'll ask you when you get nearby." ”
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole rode away with a smile.
Ten minutes later, after Huang Xintong's inquiry, the two came to a factory near the side of the mountain.
Many of the nearby are wooden houses.
"This is it! Is your friend here? ”
Huang Xintong looked at a textile factory in front of him and asked curiously.
Yang Xiaole stood at the door and looked at the sign on the door: "Junhao Garment Factory"
Visually, the place should not be very large, that is, the appearance of a large workshop, covering an area of about three or four hundred square meters.
This is the address of Uncle Hua Yourong, Soho.
This is also the address he asked for at random when he left.
Of course, this is the factory site, and the other is the residential address.
He just thought about it, and came over to take a look out of curiosity, it was impossible to go to the other party's house to do something!
When he saw Sham Shui Po on the bus, he had already thought about it, but he didn't do it well, and he didn't have time to come and see it.
I took a look at the lights on the road.
The house is relatively old, and according to the time when Soho came here, it should be a factory that changed hands from someone else.
For this area, the land price should be around 50,000 yuan.
The plant and equipment are worth about tens of thousands, and in general, it is estimated that more than 200,000 people will die, and the workers should be about forty or fifty.
"Dudu~~"
In the middle of his thoughts, a leather car slowly drove out of it.
Seeing this, Yang Xiaole covered it with his hand slightly, because he was worried that he would run into an acquaintance.
When the car passed by the two of them, he deliberately scanned it, after all, it was not clear what he could see at night.
"Tsk!!"
When Yang Xiaole saw a familiar face in the driving position, driving the car with a cigarette in his mouth and driving towards the road, he still sighed.
At this time, Soho was not wearing the previous suit.
Dressed in an ordinary cotton suit, he no longer had the calm and leisure when he put ten big black sheets on the table.
Indeed, if he were an ordinary person, that hundred yuan would be a lot, equivalent to three or four months' wages for an ordinary worker, and five or six months' wages for his wife.
But that feeling made him very unhappy.
After taking a look at this factory, according to the price, it will cost at least one or two hundred large yellow croaker.
The exchange rate in mainland China has been doubled.
It is estimated that it will cost the price of two or three hundred large yellow croaker.
This Su family is really rich!
Hundreds of thousands in the mainland is not a small amount, after all, since the beginning of the Republic of China, silver dollars have only been one dollar, which is equivalent to hundreds of thousands of silver dollars.
Huang Xintong saw that he didn't speak, and asked curiously, "Aren't you going in?" ”
Yang Xiaole came back to his senses and shook his head: "Don't go in, I'll take a look tomorrow." ”
He was not familiar with it, and it was impossible for him to run in and pretend to be slapped in the face.
It is impossible to disclose the news to anyone.
Then Huang Xintong, who was puzzled, left again.
The factory Huang Xintong said was between her aunt's house and Soho's factory, which was not very far away.
lived up to her kindness.
Brought her over.
After crossing three streets, the two came to the door of a large factory.
There are also many night markets at the gates, with shops and ordinary itinerant vendors, and some people are eating there.
This factory covers a large area, and there should be about a few thousand square meters.
It's a big factory.
"How? You alright? This factory is quite big! ”
Huang Xintong looked at the big factory and asked with a smile.
Then he thought of something and said with a smile: "Don't you have friends here?" In fact, you might as well go to them, after all, you can take care of each other. ”
Yang Xiaole nodded.
"Well, I'll ask tomorrow."
After speaking, he looked at the stall on the side of the road and smiled: "I'll invite you to eat something!" ”
I didn't feel anything about the steak I ate at night.
Seeing that there was a snack on the side of the road that was familiar, I walked over with a smile.
"Fried oysters!"
After Yang Xiaole came over, he looked at the sign.
As I thought, pancakes made of oysters.
There was a young man next to him who was buying food there.
After the other party left, he smiled: "Give me two." ”
It's an aunt who makes things.
Hearing this, he was surprised for a moment, and then smiled: "Do you want to put the others~"
"No thanks!"
Seeing this, the aunt began to get up.
Oysters, sweet potato flour, eggs, chives, tapioca flour, the variety is quite complete.
Huang Xintong came over and hurriedly said, "I'm eating!" Just ask for one. ”
"It's okay, eat and play."
Yang Xiaole smiled indifferently, took three yuan and put it on the side: "Boss, the money is here!" ”
The aunt took the money with a smile and continued to pancake.
The two of them waited there.
