Chapter 85 085 [Just So Arrogant]
Lai Hao is the type with excess energy. He can’t stop talking after eating a steak. He talks loudly with Shi Zhijian about the big business he made recently. He said that he made a lot of money by doing business with a bunch of Vietnamese guys. They have to be carried by boat. If Shi Zhijian wants to make a fortune, he can take him on the road by himself.
Shi Zhijian can make any kind of money, but he will never make money by going sideways. He can only refuse Laihao's kindness.
It was approaching noon at this time, and more and more people came to the western restaurant to eat, and soon there were thirteen or four tables gathered, and most of them were ghosts.
Shi Zhijian didn't mind seeing Laihao eating steak with his hands. For him, eating was just a form. He could use chopsticks, a knife and fork, or even his hands.
In his previous life, Shi Zhijian also tried hand-caught steak and it felt similar to hand-held barbecue.
The dozen or so ghosts at the next table saw it, but all of them looked contemptuous, and showed disgusted expressions towards Li Hao. Some ghosts even said in English: "Oh God, barbarians!"
"The people in the colonies are horrible!"
"That's why they were colonized."
"Stupid as a pig!"
Shi Zhijian frowned. He didn't want to be troublesome at first, but what these ghosts said became more and more ugly and harsh.
Lai Hao couldn't understand English but could understand facial expressions, and asked Shi Zhijian, "Is this ghost scolding me?"
Shi Zhijian: "What do you think?"
"I'll blow your lungs!" Lai Hao was about to jump up, but Shi Zhijian stopped him, telling him not to be impulsive.
Immediately, Shi Zhijian took out a tissue and wiped his mouth, then slowly stood up, stretched out his left index finger and pointed at the ghosts sitting around him, and said, "Eat, the most important thing is to be happy, but now I am very unhappy !what to do?"
While talking, Shi Zhijian took out his pocket wallet with his right hand, and took out a wad of Hong Kong dollars: "From now on—the one of you eats steak with your hands, and I will reward him with 10,000 yuan!"
Lai Hao's eyes lit up, he was domineering himself, but he didn't expect Shi Zhijian to be even more domineering than himself, to such an extent!
One person is 10,000, and there are at least 30 people in front of him. Wouldn't it cost 300,000? !
Not to mention being lame, even the waiters next to him were stunned. No one thought that this gentle-looking young man would use such an extreme method to throw money at people.
These ghosts in front of me have always thought that they are superior to others in Hong Kong, and they look down on the local Chinese. For them, eating Western food and steak is a very gentlemanly style, and it is also a high-end culture that they have always upheld and abided by. How can they easily change? !
But 10,000 Hong Kong dollars is very tempting!
In other words, although five of these ghosts can drink coffee and eat steaks in such a western restaurant, most of them actually don’t have much money, because the really rich ghosts don’t waste time here. Those who attend are all private parties, or rich and powerful associations, and they are always thinking about making money through relationships, rather than being romantic and enjoying the sun here.
Shi Zhijian pointed his finger at everyone like this: "When I finish speaking, which one will come first?!"
The entire restaurant was silent.
...
Those ghosts looked at Shi Zhijian with strange expressions, and looked a little hesitant.
In fact, to Shi Zhijian himself, it feels childish to throw money at people like this, but now he is a young and energetic young man, and young people should be unstoppable and show their sharpness, especially in front of these ghosts, let alone lose a little bit. Dot the Chinese face!
"Why, no one wants to be the first? Very good, the first place will add another 10,000!"
Before Shi Zhijian raised a finger, those ghosts couldn't hold on anymore, and rushed to grab the steak on the plate like crazy!
Shi Zhijian smiled.
Hong Kong is a really snobby place.
These ghosts look down on the Chinese on the surface, but they have to bow their heads to money.
Even the governor of Hong Kong in this era has to give three points to those rich Chinese.
What is dignity here?
Just two words,
money!
Compared with Shi Zhijian's calm after stepping on someone, Laihao laughed wildly, slammed his cane on the ground, and gave Shi Zhijian a thumbs up: "Ah Jian, you are so sharp! I like you so much! What do you mean? Money can turn ghosts around? This is it! These gangs rush to the streets, thinking that they are superior in Hong Kong, don’t they talk about money? As long as they have money, we can teach them how to behave in minutes! Let them know that this is Chinese. It's not their turn to be arrogant!"
...
Shi Zhijian stomped on these gangsters, which whetted Laihao's appetite, and he insisted on eating all five steaks in one sitting.
Shi Zhijian didn't have such a good appetite, and he only ate one and a half of the two steaks.
After eating the steak, Lai Hao took a toothpick to pick his teeth. By the way, he glanced at the dozen or so tables of ghosts. There were thirty people in total. According to what Shi Zhijian said just now, ten thousand per person was 300,000 Hong Kong dollars. Anyone would put down their dignity and fight a handful.
"However, Ah Jian, speaking of which, are you playing a bit bigger this time? Three hundred thousand baa, is this cheap for these ghosts?" Lai Hao spit out the meat stuffed between his teeth.
Shi Zhijian crossed his legs and picked up the thick cigar that he hadn't finished smoking before, and exhaled smoke: "Whether you are stupid or not, you will find out later!"
"Ghost horse! I really don't know what you think! But I admire you!" Lai Hao gave Shi Zhijian a thumbs up, then stood up with a cane and said, "Check out, let's go!"
Shi Zhijian got up, picked up the jewelry box containing the diamond and was about to return it to Lai Hao, but Lai Hao said, "Don't open your mouth again! Opening your mouth means denying me, big brother!"
Shi Zhijian had no choice but to accept the diamond.
Seeing that Shi Zhijian and Laihao were about to leave, the gang of ghosts who put down their status and dignity and grabbed the steak before got upset and got up to ask Shi Zhijian to fulfill their promise.
Facing this group of chattering ghosts, Shi Zhijian was not afraid at all, and pointed at these ghosts' noses with a cigar between his fingers: "Hey, I am very trustworthy in life! If you say ten thousand, you will be ten thousand!"
Shi Zhijian turned back and said to Li Hao: "Brother Hao, didn't you say that you have done business with Vietnamese guys recently? 300,000 Vietnamese dong, is there any problem?"
Lai Hao was taken aback for a moment, it seemed that Shi Zhijian did not say the currency of 10,000 from the beginning to the end, although what he took out from his wallet was Hong Kong dollars.
"Hahaha!" Laihao looked up to the sky and laughed, "No problem! The Vietnamese Dong is like a butt wipe! I will throw his mother away!"
Those ghosts look at me and I look at you.
Shi Zhijian spat out: "Stupid as a pig!"
...
Amid the curses of those ghosts, Shi Zhijian and Li Hao left the western restaurant together.
Along the way, Laihao's salary has been getting higher and higher, and he feels that Shi Zhijian's work is beautiful, which is extremely refreshing, no wonder Lei Luo appreciates him so much.
Shi Zhijian was about to wave for a rickshaw, but Lai Hao hooked his fingers to let Snake Ming come over.
She Ziming took out the Volkswagen car key and handed it to Lai Hao with both hands.
Lai Hao casually tossed the car keys to Shi Zhijian: "What kind of rickshaw is it called, take my car!"
Shi Zhijian froze for a moment: "I'm driving your car, what are you driving?"
Lai Hao smiled, raised his crutches and pointed to a new Bentley parked not far away: "Of course it's a Bentley, it's in line with my identity!"
Shi Zhijian looked at the new Bentley, but saw Lame's bodyguards Da Wei and Xi Wei smilingly waiting beside the car.
Seeing Shi Zhijian looking over, Dawei cupped his fists at him, and Xiwei made a face at him.
Snake Ming laughed beside him and said, "Brother Jian, this is also Brother Hao's wish! I have maintained that car very well, and I have already filled up the fuel tank for you!"
Shi Zhijian has nothing to say, it can be seen that Lai Hao has done a lot of work to get closer to him.
"Do you have a driver's license? It doesn't matter if you don't have a driver's license, I'll buy one for you!" Lai Hao was very thoughtful, thinking that Shi Zhijian was worrying about his driver's license.
In fact, there are still very few people who can afford to drive a car in Hong Kong in this era. Therefore, the driver's license is not strict and easy to obtain. After all, having a car means that you are rich. There is nothing that a rich person cannot do in Hong Kong. Son.
Shi Zhijian didn't refuse either. Since he had already collected the diamonds and the car, why should he care about charging an extra driver's license.
Seeing that Shi Zhijian didn't refuse this time, Laihao looked very happy.
On the side of the road, Shi Zhijian chatted with Li Hao for a few more words, and the two broke up.
Lame Hao drove off in a Bentley, and Shi Zhijian took the car keys to drive a car for the first time in this era.
Getting used to riding in rickshaws and buses of this era, Shi Zhijian suddenly touched the steering wheel of a Volkswagen. Shi Zhijian was in a daze for a while, tried to operate it, and soon became proficient.
Shi Zhijian drove the car slowly on the road on Chater Road, and from time to time there were cheongsam girls passing by, which gave Shi Zhijian a dreamy feeling.
And when those girls saw Shi Zhijian who was driving a car, he was young and handsome, and they all winked at him.
Some student girls who had just started their love affairs saw it, but they didn't dare to look directly at that handsome face. Instead, they secretly glanced at Shi Zhijian who was driving the car, guessing which family's son or young master this was?
No matter what era, it's nice to have a car!
Just as Shi Zhijian was driving with one hand and sighed in his heart, a figure suddenly rushed out from the front of the car.
The man rushed out without looking at the road, regardless of the car Shi Zhijian was driving.
Shi Zhijian turned the steering wheel and braked suddenly.
crunch!
The car barely stopped, but still bumped into someone with a bang.
