With a Door In Mind

"You wait for me for a while. I'll make a call and ask Xiaowei and Xiaomeng to come and pick up the goods."

After leaving the port, Mr. Hu explained to Zhou Xiaochuan.

Then he went to the phone booth next to him and made a call.

Zhou Xiaochuan waited beside him and looked around.

Victoria Harbour is the oldest port on Hong Kong Island.

The buildings in other places can only be commendable. There are ten-story high-rise buildings everywhere. Anyway, it is much more prosperous than the mainland.

But the most conspicuous is a hotel diagonally opposite the port.

Peninsula Hotel.

Nowadays, the most luxurious hotel in Asia.

It was about nine o'clock at this time, but many lights in the whole hotel were still on, not only the hotel, but many shops in other streets were still open.

After a while, Hu Laosan finished the phone call and said, "Let's go, let's have a meal first."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded, thinking of the name of the third Hu, and asked strangely: "What's the matter? You all changed your names?"

"Yeah! It's better to change the name to avoid any trouble." Hu Laosan shrugged, "Oh, yes, since you're here, I'll give you the money then, you really are, since Come, and toss me."

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at him with a smile, "I didn't make a decision, okay? So I didn't think of it."

After speaking, he looked around, "Where are you taking me?"

"The big hotels are closed. Let me take you to the night market! Don't underestimate the night market. There are many good things in it."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded and followed him for a while, in fact, it was only more than 200 meters.

In a snack street, the alley is not big and there are many shops.

There were a lot of people sitting sparsely, eating.

There are storefront-style food stalls on the roadside, and there are also stalls that push cars directly there.

It is estimated that it is too late, and many people who set up stalls to sell clothes and jewelry are closing their stalls and preparing to go back.

Side oven, egg tarts, curry fish balls, car noodles, pork chop rice, roast duck, roast goose, all kinds of barbecued pork rice...

Hot pot, desserts, pasta, all kinds of barbecued pork rice have everything.

There are also many barbecue restaurants.

The thick smoke wafting from the outside shop carried the unique aroma of barbecue.

It's just that most of this barbecue is mainly seafood.

In the corner, I also saw a family wearing Taoist robes with a lot of antiques inside, which seemed to be playing with Feng Shui.

And he also saw several shops with scantily clad girls sitting at the door.

When he saw a man passing by, he made an enchanting greeting.

"Beautiful boy, come and play! You are satisfied!"

After turning around, Hu Laosan smiled at Zhou Xiaochuan and said, "What do you want to eat? If you don't want to eat at all, I will take you to the Peninsula Hotel for a Western meal."

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head when he heard the words, "Forget it, just eat here."

Looking around, he has never eaten many dishes, and he doesn't know whether they are delicious or not.

Looking at a hot pot restaurant on the side of the road, he said, "Eat that!"

"Okay, you can also use the side stove." Then he led him towards the food stall.

The side stove is the Cantonese hot pot.

There were only three people working in the hot pot restaurant, a middle-aged couple in their 40s and 50s, and a little girl in her twenties.

There are five folding tables in front of the store, and three tables are seated at this time.

"Old world!"

Hu Laosan brought Zhou Xiaochuan to a table and sat down, and shouted to the inside.

Hearing the voice, the little girl who was serving the dishes finished the dishes and came over.

They smiled at Hu Laosan and said, "You two, have something to eat."

"What do you want to eat, do you want to look at the dishes inside?"

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head when he heard the words, "No need, you can eat whatever you want, you can order whatever you want."

Hu Laosan nodded, then chatted with the other party over there for a while, and then left.

Before, what Hu Laosan said could only be regarded as the Cantonese version of Mandarin, but now the two of them speak authentic Cantonese, and the speed is very fast.

He may not understand everything, but he can understand the general meaning.

Then Mr. Hu turned his head and smiled at Zhou Xiaochuan: "I don't know what you like to eat, but most of them will serve you."

"It's okay, you can eat anything."

While talking, the bottom of the pot came up quickly. This was the big bone soup base that had been boiled in advance. It was placed in a casserole, and at the bottom was a small pottery stove with a charcoal fire.

There are spices such as peppers on the table, you can serve them if you like.

The dishes were also served quickly, and the table was filled up in a short while, and finally could not put it down, so I brought the folding table next to it to put the dishes.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at so many dishes, and was speechless for a while, "Have you finished ordering so many?"

"It's alright, I can't finish it. After a while, Xiaowei and the others will come to change the bottom of the pot for them to eat." Hu Laosan took a piece of beer brought by the little girl, opened a bottle and put it in front of him, and opened it for himself a bottle.

Then smiled: "And this thing is very cheap!"

"How much is this table?"

"Fifty or sixty yuan! Come, come, have a drink first!"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, it wasn't cheap either. It is equivalent to five or six days' wages of ordinary workers here.

But there are so many dishes.

All kinds of seafood, shrimp dumplings, fish balls, some beef, sheep and pork, and some vegetables.

Then I touched the bottle with Mr. Hu.

The dishes were hot in the pot, and the two chatted while eating.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at Hu Laosan's wealthy appearance, and smiled, "Brother Hu, you are living a well-off life here, right? Didn't you find a daughter-in-law?"

When I met him back then, the other party was 25 years old. It's been 12 years, and he's 37.

They are all old men.

Hearing his words, Hu Laosan's originally dark face suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

"I found one, but I'm still in school!"

"puff…"

Zhou Xiaochuan almost spit out a sip of wine.

This guy can do it!

Even in college, he is at most twenty-four or five years old. As for graduate students, he may be older, but it is estimated that he does not look down on him.

"What school? How old is it?"

"Oh, at the University of Education, now a senior. 22 years old!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was speechless for a while, this is really the old cow eating the tender grass! And the grass is really tender!

But think about it.

The real estate here didn't start long, and it was similar to the 1980s. Most of the people lived in small houses of 30 to 40 square meters.

A more powerful family of five or six lives in a house of ten square meters.

On this Hong Kong Island, which can be called a "thousand-foot mansion" with hundreds of square meters, Lao Hu has a villa, and he is also a valuable person no matter what.

It is indeed a world of capital where money comes first.

But this has nothing to do with him, in case the family is true love!

The two chatted while eating. About an hour later, Zhou Xiaochuan looked at the time.

"When are they coming? It's not that far from Repulse Bay, is it?"

Hu Laosan was peeling shrimp, and nodded when he heard the words, "It's not far, only twenty miles away, but now there is no road, so we can only cross the ferry. It is estimated that it will take a lot of time to cross the ferry. However, there is a built in the east. The undersea tunnel, it will be much faster to come back in two years, at most half an hour."

During the conversation, two people walked into the alley, about thirty years old.

Hu Laosan glanced: "Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here! Isn't this coming?"

"Big Brother Hu!"

The two of them brushed their hair apart, walked over in casual clothes, and greeted Hu Laosan.

When they saw Zhou Xiaochuan arrive, both of them were surprised.

One of them looked at Mr. Hu hesitantly: "Brother Hu, he is..."

Hu Laosan nodded when he heard the words, "That's right, it's him! All right, sit down and have something to eat."

After speaking, let the boss serve two bowls quickly.

After the two sat down, they were all excited.

For so many years, the two of them have experienced great winds and waves with Hu Laosan.

Everything is because of this person in front of me.

But neither of them regretted it. Without each other, they don't know how many people in their village would starve to death.

They just don't know what to call each other.

Because from the beginning to the end, neither of them knew his name.

Zhou Xiaochuan naturally saw the embarrassment of the two and smiled: "Call me Zhou Ming!"

Although Hu Laosan knew about it, he was not ready to tell the world.

"Brother Ming!"

"Brother Ming!"

The two greeted him.

Zhou Xiaochuan waved his hand when he heard the words, "I'm not even older than you! It's not appropriate to call me brother!"

Hu Laosan interrupted him, "It's okay, many here are not divided by age."

It means to divide by position.

Xiaowei and Xiaomeng nodded, "Yes, Brother Hu is right!"

Zhou Xiaochuan didn't care when he saw it.

It just feels weird.

Several people were eating, and Hu Laosan arranged for two people there.

After half an hour, the food was almost the same, and a few checked out and left.

Hu Laosan looked at Zhou Xiaochuan and said with a smile: "We still have something to do at night. I'll take you to find a hotel to stay first."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words.

Several people came to the intersection, and there was a black Ford old-fashioned sedan parked at the intersection. The front and rear of the car were square.

The slightly thinner Xiaowei smiled at the two and said, "Where are you going? I'll take you there."

Apparently there were several people in the car.

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at the Peninsula Hotel opposite, "No need, I'm going to live there, you guys are busy with yours."

Hu Laosan nodded, "Okay!"

He knew the price over there, and knew that Zhou Xiaochuan could still live there. It should be said that he lived casually.

The car bypassed the big fountain at the entrance of the hotel and drove directly to the entrance of the hotel. Zhou Xiaochuan and Hu Laosan got out of the car and walked in directly.

There were two doormen in dresses at the door, who gave them a strange look.

But it didn't stop.

Seeing this, Mr. Hu glanced at Zhou Xiaochuan, and then smiled: "When there is time, let the hotel send you a few sets of clothes. Your clothes are too cheap."

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look at his clothes after hearing this.

The quality is really bad. Even if you wear it outside and compare with ordinary people, you will feel like a migrant worker.

"Fine!"

Then the two came into the hall.

The whole hall is magnificent, full of gorgeous decoration and classical style lobby design, exuding the fascinating victorian aristocratic atmosphere.

Several Gothic columns, carved white lions, the roof of the hall is a variety of exquisite frescoes and a string of crystal chandeliers.

This decoration will also be star-rated in later generations.

However, the corresponding prices are not cheap, ranging from the cheapest ordinary single room at HK$288 to the most expensive VIP suite at HK$6888.

fo

As for the most expensive presidential suite, you can only stay with a VIP card issued by the hotel separately.

Not even money.

There was only one beautiful woman with long hair and big eyes at the front desk, wearing a uniform that looked uneven.

There are no flaming red lips, only heavy makeup, which looks very seductive.

Nothing happened because his clothes were too bad to let him in.

It's just that the beauty at the front desk looked suspicious and didn't say anything.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan decided to give it a try and opened a suite for 6888 Hong Kong dollars.

Ordinary people live one night a year for wages.

Although the bulk of the money was given to Mr. Hu, he still had hundreds of thousands of spare change. He paid a deposit of US$10,000 and asked the front desk to help match three sets of clothes for this season.

As for where the clothes come from, he doesn't care, the most upscale hotel in Asia cannot do this.

The lady at the front desk asked about the price.

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head, "Whatever, it's fine!"

"Okay sir, the clothes will be delivered to your room when they arrive."

The beauty smiled politely at Zhou Xiaochuan, asked about the size again, and took a note.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan turned around and looked at Mr. Hu next to him.

"You go to work first, just come to me directly tomorrow."

Hu Laosan nodded when he heard the words.

Write down Zhou Xiaochuan's room number, say hello and leave.

Seeing the other party leave, he took the elevator up and went straight to the 26th floor.

The top 27th and 28th floors should be the presidential suites.

When I came to the room and opened it, there was a suite of nearly 200 square meters.

Like the hall downstairs, it is very gorgeous.

It is no problem for two or three people to lie down in an oversized bathtub.

But he didn't know how many people washed here, and he didn't know what they were doing there.

I put things down and went to take a shower.

Money is good, and the service is very fast. When he came out of the shower, before he was dry, there was a knock on the door.

After opening, UU reading www.uukanshu. com is the front desk before.

"Sir, your clothes have arrived! A total of 30,000 Hong Kong dollars!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xiaochuan picked up the clothes, opened them, and looked at them. There were three sets of clothes, from underwear, shoes, socks to a punk jacket.

There is no brand on it.

But it feels comfortable and looks classy, ​​or fashionable.

Without arguing, I just took out US dollars and gave the money.

It's just three days' room fee.

But the beauty didn't leave with the money, she smiled charmingly at Zhou Xiaochuan, "Sir, do you need any other services?"

Zhou Xiaochuan thought for a while after hearing the words, then shook his head, "No more!"

The other party shrugged and said disappointedly, "Well then, I won't bother you sir."

Then he turned and left.

Zhou Xiaochuan knew what the other party wanted to do.

If you really want a woman, go straight to a nearby university, flip the dollar, and some people come over.

The point is that he has no interest.

Originally, I wanted to ask the other party why she spoke so sloppy Chinese, but I gave up after thinking about it, but don't think that you are interested in her.

Wrapped in a bath towel, I came to the master bedroom and turned on the TV.

I saw a TVB variety show in it: Unforgettable Tonight.

The show was nothing to watch, but the host made him shine.

It is the actor of Xiangshuai Chu Liuxiang, Zheng Shaoqiu.

And he was young.

Looking back on his deeds, it seems that the other party only became popular after a few years.

When I was a child, I watched Chu Liuxiang but I was fascinated by it. Zheng Shaoqiu's version is also his favorite version.

After watching the show for a while, it was over.

And it was already 11 o'clock.

Turn off the TV and go to bed.
