Yang Ming handed the menu to Ma Shimin.

Ma Shimin was even more surprised when he saw the price marked on the recipe.

Cheap!

A cocktail is HKD 5.

A glass of German beer costs HKD 5.

A glass of vodka costs 5 Hong Kong dollars.

In addition, the steaks here are not expensive.

For Ma Shimin, his salary at Jardine was not very low before, but now that he is the general manager of Wharf, his salary is higher.

Even then, I was really surprised to see the prices for the recipes here.

You can sit here for a long time with a cocktail or even a beer.

No wonder so many white people sit here drinking, chatting and listening to music.

"Shimin, how are you?"

"Boss, the drinks here are too cheap. I'm worried that they are fake?"

fake?

Yang Ming smiled.

He knew it was absolutely impossible.

This place is at its peak. In fact, the drinks here are the cheapest in Hong Kong.

The waitress stood aside and saw that after Ma Shimin and Yang Ming ordered, Chen Zhenhua and others were bodyguards and they did not drink.

Not long after, the waitress personally delivered the German beer ordered by Ma Shimin and Yang Ming.

Beer in a big glass.

Yang Ming was still a little surprised.

This actually only costs HK$5.

Although 5 Hong Kong dollars is not too little for the average income class now.

"cheers!"

After Yang Ming and Ma Shimin picked up the wine glasses, they took a sip of the hoppy beer.

Yang Ming, Ma Shimin could tell from the first sip that this was pure German beer.

If that were the case, beer imported from Germany would not be that cheap.

Ma Shimin and Yang Ming were drinking there, listening to European romantic songs playing in the bar, and chatting at the same time. This really felt like a British bar.

"Boss, you really took me to the right place. I have lived in Xiangjiang for more than ten years and I don't even know this place."

Yang Ming smiled.

He came to this place often in his previous life.

Do you want to say that you like it very much?

That's impossible too.

However, it is still 1978 after all, which is completely different from the time in history.

"Shimin, after you finish drinking, we can go out and take a look at the surrounding environment."

. . .

The two sat drinking and chatting, occasionally listening to other white people chatting there.

It lasted from about ten o'clock in the evening to about eleven o'clock in the evening.

Yang Ming and Ma Shimin drank German beer and red wine. Yang Ming was a little drunk, but Ma Shimin was fine. He still didn't look drunk.

The time came to 12:00 in the evening.

However, the bar is basically dominated by white people.

Yang Ming went to the bathroom and came out.

"Shimin, do you still want to drink?"

"Boss, if you don't drink, it will affect your work tomorrow."

Ma Shimin did not drink any more.

When they asked the bartender to pay the bill, Yang Ming and Ma Shimin spent a total of about 80 Hong Kong dollars after drinking here for so long.

Yang Ming took out 100 Hong Kong dollars and used the remaining 20 Hong Kong dollars as a tip for the waitress.

“Welcome next time.”

Yang Ming, Ma Shimin and others came out.

Ma Shimin didn't know what the boss wanted to see. He really liked this bar or the environment here.

After Yang Ming took Ma Shimin around for a while.

"Shimin, how do you feel about this place?"

how is it?

"Boss, the environment here is very good and suitable for drinking."

"But what about this?"

"except this?"

Ma Shimin didn't understand why Yang Ming asked here?

Naturally, when Yang Ming and Ma Shimin came out, they didn't just drink to cultivate the relationship between superiors and subordinates.

His real purpose is to do business.

This is no other place.

It is Lan Kwai Fong, a famous scenic spot in Hong Kong in history.

Speaking of Lan Kwai Fong, more than 20 years later, even in China, many tourists who have visited Xiangjiang know it.

At this time, white people like Ma Shimin who had lived in Xiangjiang for more than ten years did not know.

Lan Kwai Fong Bar Street first originated in the early 20s when the Government House began urban renewal in the Central and Western District.

At that time, an Italian businessman opened an Italian clothing store and restaurant here.

Some "yuppies" who work in Central want a place to chat after get off work, so this restaurant becomes their happy hour gathering place.

However, the actual formation of Lan Kwai Fong was actually the work of a Jew.

Sheng Zhiwen.

In the early 80s, because of his relationship with a trading company, Sheng Zhiwen met many young buyers from China. They often complained that if they wanted to go to a bar in Hong Kong, they had to go to a hotel, which was very inconvenient.

Sheng Zhiwen felt that Hong Kong was an international metropolis. Country M had Soho, Canada had Montreal, and Hong Kong could also have Lan Kwai Fong, so he opened his first restaurant California there.

It started as a temporary rental. After a few months, he found that it was very popular and many celebrities and models came to patronize it because it was just across the street from Queen's Road, the heart of Central.

In Sheng Zhiwen, he rented out all the properties around Lan Kwai Fong to build the Lan Kwai Fong Group.

This led to the world-famous Lan Kwai Fong attraction in Hong Kong.

At this time, except for this L-shaped uphill path and two or three ordinary small bars, compared with the dozens of bars and Western restaurants in the future, they are really nothing.

"Boss, what do you mean?" Ma Shimin finally reacted.

"You are from country Y. You should like this place to drink."

"I like it. I quite like this environment."

"That's it. This is a good place. However, we have to think about it in the long term."

Ma Shimin looked at his boss and already guessed it.

Chen Zhenhua pushed Yang Ming and he and Ma Shimin were in the Lan Kwai Fong area. Yang Ming looked at it again. The more he looked, the more familiar he felt.

Later, Lan Kwai Fong changed a lot as a whole. In fact, many buildings remained unchanged, except that the outer walls may have been renovated.

Yang Ming had been here many times in his previous life and was deeply impressed by this place.

In his mind, he could even draw this place.

I have to say that Sheng Zhiwen is really a business genius.

When I discovered this place for the first time, I knew it had great commercial value.

Now that Yang Ming has taken a liking to him, it is impossible to leave him to the Jewish Sheng Zhiwen.

After Yang Ming finished reading, the time had reached 0:25 in the morning.

Yang Ming was going back to the Repulse Bay mid-level villa to rest.

Ma Shimin also wants to return to the apartment building in Central District.

When Yang Ming was carefully pushed downhill in his wheelchair by Chen Zhenhua, he was heading towards the place where the car was parked in front.

Sudden.

Yang Ming heard a noise in the distance.

Under the dim light, a young girl was being teased by a group of gangster-looking young men.

"If you dare to come any closer, I will jump down."

Coming down the hill from Lan Kwai Fong, there is a smelly ditch not far away.

However, the smelly ditch is neither big nor small, just a lot of garbage and sewage.
