Chapter 21: The Encounter with St. Paul's
The Ruins of St. Paul's, in fact, are the ruins of St. Paul's Cathedral, the Church of the Mother of God in Macau, St. Paul's Church, which was completed in 1580. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ The Ruins of Info St. Paul's are the site of its faΓ§ade. It is also one of the eight scenic spots in Macau, and was certified as a World Heritage Site by the United Nations in 2005.
More than 400 years ago, the Portuguese invaded Macau and brought Catholicism to Macau. In 1562, after several years, the Portuguese built this church in Macao, named the "St. Paul" church. The Portuguese pronunciation of "St. Paul's" is close to the Cantonese "Samba", so it is also called "St. Paul's Church". Later, the church was destroyed by fire twice. In 1602, St. Paul's Church was rebuilt again, and after 35 years, it was completed in 1637. A fire in 1835 destroyed the church, leaving only the front wall, which cost 30,000 taels of silver, and became today's Ruins of St. Paul's.
Don't get me wrong, Li Hao has no interest in these historical sites at all, but I heard that there are a lot of Macao snacks here, so I came to taste it, and he would buy a little bit every time he passed by a stall, and soon Li Hao found that he couldn't take it with his hands. This also strengthened his determination to find a follower. Just thinking about it, I saw an acquaintance, it was the Northeast fellow who sat next to him when he went to the casino yesterday, the big girl in a red dress.
Li Hao wanted to go up to say hello, but suddenly saw two people coming next to him, and they were also going towards the girl, Li Hao decided to see the situation clearly, obviously this girl's record yesterday should not be very good, and she was talking to these two men with a sad face. After a while, the two men left. Li Hao guessed seven, seven, eight, eight. It is estimated that it is also a bloody loan shark. Li Hao, who originally wanted to go up to say hello to her, was also a little hesitant. I thought to myself, "It's not a good thing to stick to a bad gambler." "Just about to turn away. But the girl saw him.
"Big brother, have you come here to play too?" Li Hao could see her forced smile.
"Yes! I heard that if you don't come to Macau, you won't be able to come to Macau, so I came to take a look, and then I found that what I didn't see was a broken wall, and there were a lot of people who came here to eat some snacks. What about you?"
As soon as the latter words came out, Li Hao regretted it, and really wanted to slap himself in the mouth. Isn't this a chance for this girl to climb the pole? But the words have already been said and there is no way to take them back.
"Oh, I'm here too. The girl obviously didn't want to ask Li Hao for help. This made Li Hao breathe a sigh of relief. But then the girl came again.
"Big brother, you are in business, are you still recruiting? You see if I can do it, I can do anything, and I can endure hardships. Li Hao wanted to refuse, but when he saw the pleading eyes on his sister's face, he softened a little. I thought about it again, I just didn't need an errand, and it was good to use a beautiful girl to carry a bag.
Thinking of this, he felt that he could continue to reload the X that he didn't finish yesterday. So I took a closer look at the girl in front of me, because she was suffocated from internal injuries before, so I didn't look too closely, and now I see that this girl is really a beauty, although she is not as devilish as Sun Yuying, but she has at least 80 points.
"I remember that you said in the car that you had been paid for two years, so don't you have a job? Why do you want to find a job again?" Li Hao is suspicious by nature, and he must ask everything clearly.
"Oh, the boss of the company I used to work for was a pervert, always trying to take advantage of me, he has a wife at home, I haven't agreed, I worked late a few days ago, and there was no one in the office, so he took the opportunity to insult me, I was excited and took a pen and stabbed him. He didn't dare to pursue it because he knew that he was wrong, he just asked me to resign myself, I knew I couldn't do it there anymore and resigned myself, I used to run business, I can do anything, big brother, you can use me!"
"Oh, then why did you come here to gamble again?" Li Hao asked inquiringly.
"My mother was sick and needed a lot of money, and my family couldn't get it at all, and I didn't have any other way, and then I heard from our neighbor Aunt Wang that his son had won a lot of money in Macau, so I wondered if I could win some money back. I also found the most accurate fortune teller Feng blind on our side to open the light, and I felt that my luck would not be bad, and I lost all the money in 2 hours. The girl is also a person who has no heart, Li Hao asked, and he said everything about the beans poured from the bamboo tube.
Li Hao found out that she was really not a bad gambler, so he agreed.
Well, the monthly salary is set at 8,000 per month and then changes depending on the situation, but you can rest assured that I will not take advantage of you. "Li Hao is very bossy.
The girl was also very excited when she saw that Li Hao agreed, and almost knelt down for Li Hao, but fortunately, Li Hao was in a hurry and caught her.
"Thank you, big brother, thank you so much, you and I are a benefactor. By the way, I haven't asked the eldest brother what your name is! My name is Ren Xiaoxiao, you can just call me Xiaoxiao. Ren Xiaoxiao said excitedly.
"My name is Li Hao, you can call me Brother Li or Boss Li. β
"Okay, Brother Li, can I discuss something with you?"
"Tell me something!"
"Can I advance my salary? I've lost all my money. β
"Well, tell me, how much do you want to advance?"
"Really, thank you so much Brother Li, I want to advance my salary for 10 years first. β
"Poof!" the drink Li Hao was drinking squirted directly out of his nose.
"You mean you're going to advance your salary for 10 years?" Li Hao wiped his nose and asked very depressedly.
"That's the case, Brother Li, I saw that I had lost the money before, so I borrowed a short-term loan of 100,000 yuan from Zenxin Credit Company, but I also lost. If I don't return it, they won't give me the pass. Also, my mother's illness cost a lot. So......" Speaking of this, Ren Xiaoxiao also lowered her head in shame. She also knew that her requirements were excessive, how could she advance her salary for 10 years when she first joined the company.
But Li Hao is really not short of that amount of money now, so he only thought about it for a while and said: "Yes, but you have to show me all your various identity certificates, and then write a receipt stating that you can only work for me in the past ten years." β
"Okay, no problem, Brother Li. I'll get it for you, and I'll stay in a small inn not far from here, or you can come with me. When Ren Xiaoxiao heard Li Hao agree, she felt that Li Hao's whole person was glowing, just like her own bodhisattva.
"Okay, I'll go with you. β
Li Hao felt that there was nothing urgent anyway, so he went with him.
There is a small alley about 200 meters in front, and there is a small alley 30 meters in, and there is a small door 10 meters inside, and there is a small door written on the face, Lisboa Hotel. Li Hao complained infinitely in his heart: "Damn, it's really wonderful." It's also called the Grand Hotel. β
followed Ren Xiaoxiao into the door, turned left a few steps to her room, opened the door with the key, and Li Hao saw that there was nothing but a bed inside. thought to himself, "I don't know how Ren Xiaoxiao found such a magical place." β
Ren Xiaoxiao took out a small drawcase from under the bed, opened it and made a bunch of things out of it, and then took out his ID card from the pile and handed it to Li Hao. Li Hao saw that this girl was still a post-95 generation. I guess I went to work without going to college. Then she took out the household registration book and handed it to Li Hao. Then there is the high school diploma. Then there is the health certificate.
"My Hong Kong and Macau pass is still in the lending company, and I can't show it to you now. Ren Xiaoxiao said with an embarrassed face.
Li Hao was speechless for a while, thinking, "Are you here to gamble for money, or are you looking for a job, you have brought so many books, even the household registration book." β
I flipped through the household registration book in my hand. The first page is Ren Changgui, and the second page is Wang Caifeng, Li Hao thought that this should be his father and mother. The third page is Ren Xiaoxiao. Li Hao didn't continue to flip. Then he asked casually: "Ren Changgui is your father?"
"Yes, Ren Changgui is my father, Wang Caifeng is my mother, my father was laid off and followed my mother to buy vegetables in the market, my grandmother called"
"Stop, no need to introduce, I'll just ask. Li Hao saw that she was going to introduce her ancestors to eight generations to herself, and quickly stopped her. I thought that this little girl didn't have any heart, and she could rest assured. It was decided that it would be her.
"Okay, that's all, you go to the bank with me to withdraw money in a while, pay back the loan shark first, and then clean up and follow me." Li Hao gave a definite reply.
"Well, okay, Brother Li, I'll check out and go with you. β
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at the door. β
"Okay, Brother Li, I'll finish it soon. β
Li Hao, who listened to this voice, how did Brother Li feel that he had become Li Yao's feeling. But it feels good, well, let her call herself that in the future.
Soon Ren Xiaoxiao left the room and followed behind Li Hao with her small trunk. The two took a taxi to the bank to withdraw 150,000 yuan, and then went to the loan company to redeem Ren Xiaoxiao's Hong Kong and Macao pass. The interest of borrowing 100,000 yuan a day is 2,000 yuan. Li Hao pondered that this loan shark was really a money-making industry.
