Feel embarrassed

When I returned to my residence, it was time for lunch, Lao Yu didn't care about me, he soaked a bowl of noodles and ate it by himself; The instant noodle box after eating was not collected, but was placed on the coffee table, and he himself was already lying on the sofa and falling asleep...

 I feel a little bad in my heart, this is my family, never thinking about me, let alone making me feel loved.

 I took the instant noodle box that Lao Yu ate, and then ordered a takeout by myself, while waiting, thinking about things; This time, I really want to start my own business, and it's against the wind, so imagine how much pressure it is.

 I lit a cigarette, probably heard the sound of a lighter, Lao Yu woke up, he first looked at me in a daze, and then replied to me: "When did you come back?" "

 "It's been a while... This house is small and not very ventilated, so the next time you finish eating instant noodles, remember to put it away, so as not to make the room smell of instant noodles. "

 "Are you being a hypocrisy with your old man... You don't like the smell of instant noodles so much, why do you hide such a big box of instant noodles under your bed!? "

 "I just vomited, so I didn't like the smell... Let me tell you, I won't go to Tianjin, I will stay in Xiamen in the future, and you think too highly of your son, what kind of life I live, what I eat every day, you have also seen it... But don't worry, I won't lower my standard of living just because you're here, how I lived before and how I live now. "

 Lao Yu glanced at me and replied, "Supposedly, your salary is not low... Isn't it almost 10,000 yuan when you get it, and there is always money for a meal of meat at two ends in three days. "

 "I don't have time to cook for you, and if you want to eat meat in the future, I'll take you down to the restaurant... If you don't want to bother, you can also buy your own meat and make it yourself, and the pots and pans are ready-made at home. "

 "If you go down to the restaurant to eat, you must go down to the restaurant to eat... Make it yourself, how can someone make it in a restaurant. "

 Looking at Lao Yu's happy appearance, I chose to be silent, that is, at this time, the delivery man delivered the takeaway I ordered, and before I touched it, Lao Yu opened the box, and then brought a spoon and bowl from the kitchen, and said to me with a smile: "This egg fried rice looks very fragrant, I didn't eat enough just now, you give me half of it." "

 "If you don't have enough to eat, I'll give it all to you."

 "And what do you eat?"

 "I'll go down and eat a bowl of Lanzhou ramen later."

 "Okay."

 ...

 After Lao Yu finished eating, I took him downstairs, and then led him to a fishing tackle shop, Lao Yu asked me very puzzled: "Aren't you going to eat, what are you doing with me to the fishing tackle shop?" "

 "Buy you a set of fishing gear, and if you're okay in the future, you'll go fishing."

 "When did you see me go fishing? ... I don't know this, you're ruining your money. "

 I was patient and said, "No, you can learn... Fishing, you can cultivate your self-cultivation, it's not much better than running out to gamble if you have nothing to do... Besides, the fish in the sea are so delicious that if you can catch a few of them every day, I can enjoy them too. "

 Lao Yu thought about it, and finally replied: "Cheng, this matter is up to you... It's weird and uncomfortable to be stuffed in your little house every day. "

 "Hmm."

 I bought Lao Yu a set of amateur fishing gear, and when I was about to hand it over to him, he patted me on the shoulder again and said with a smile: "You have to work hard, and then buy a suite in Xiamen, our father and son have a room for each person, it's beautiful to think about... Let me complain to you, in your current house, it's okay to live alone, and the two of us are crammed into it, which is really a bit unbearable. "

 "Can't do it? Are you going to run in it? "

 "Why does this sound so familiar?"

 "The unreliable Lao Tzu in the world is like you."

 ...

 After eating a bowl of "Lanzhou Ramen", I took Lao Yu to the pier that I named "Fool", I didn't really want him to fish, I just wanted him to help me guard here...

 I'm still waiting for Cha Xiaoqing, hoping that she can give me a chance to explain; In addition, ask where the 170,000 cash went.

 Lao Yu really enjoyed it, he went directly to the yacht, and then regarded the yacht as a fishing spot for himself; And I went to look at the letter that was tucked between the cracks in the door...

 The letter was still there, but the handwriting on it had been blurred by the moisture of the seaside... Cha Xiaoqing is afraid that he has never been here at all; It is also possible that she came, but did not get on the yacht; Therefore, letting Lao Yu fish here is not a solution, as long as Cha Xiaoqing comes to this pier, he will definitely be able to see it, and he will definitely call me to inform me.

 Before leaving, I specially told Lao Yu not to change places to fish, and Lao Yu agreed.

 ...

 Leaving the dock, I swept a shared bike and wandered the streets... Since I have promised to open a bubble tea shop with Tang Ning and Tang Guo, I should focus on this matter... I am very sober, compared to Tang Guo and Tang Ning, I am the one who has the most no way out, so I have to have a greater sense of urgency than them.

 After an afternoon, I was really surprised that the rent of some shops in Xiamen had reached an incredible level; Not to mention the first-line scenic spots, just ordinary commercial streets, a small shop of more than ten square meters has already quoted a sky-high price of 100,000 a year, no wonder Tang Ning is so pessimistic! It's really difficult to do physical business now, sometimes I've been busy for a year, and it looks like it's quite profitable, but I'm actually working for the landlord.

 ...

 Towards the end of the evening, Tang Guo and I met at Tang Ning's bubble tea shop, and we talked about the plans of the bubble tea shop again...

 I told them about my situation this afternoon, Tang Ning felt very pessimistic, but Tang Guo looked confident; As soon as I finished speaking, she said to me and Tang Ning: "You always say that I love to play and don't do my job, but when it comes to critical times, you still have to rely on me... You two really need to pay attention to building up contacts in the future... Today, I told my friend about opening a bubble tea shop, he was working as a scenic spot manager on Gulangyu Island, and after a while, he wrote back to me... There is now a 10-square-meter fruit shop to be transferred in the scenic spot, the owner of this fruit shop, signed a fifteen-year contract with the landlord at that time, at that time, Gulangyu Island was not as popular as it is now, so the rent is not expensive, about 80,000 yuan a year, this rent, on the whole island can no longer be found..."

 Tang Ning interrupted Tang Guo's words and asked, "Sister, you're not joking, are you?" My shop still needs a rent of 50,000 yuan a year, but it is a shop on Gulangyu Island, only 80,000 a year! "

 "It's really 80,000 years, let's tell the truth, the owner of that fruit shop does have a vision, and no one thought that Gulangyu Island would become a national tourist attraction... At that time, people also took risks, if Gulangyu was not as popular as it is now, he would have to take a large amount of rent to enter it... However, although the rent is cheap, the transfer fee is really high..."

 I asked, "How much does he want for the transfer fee?" "

 "Two hundred and fifty thousand, a fixed price."

 Tang Ning and I took a sharp breath at the same time, and then sighed: "A ten-square-meter pocket shop, he dares to ask for 250,000 yuan in transfer fees, can't he be crazy... By the way, is his shop renovated? "

 Tang Guo shook his head and replied: "There is almost no decoration, but what people earn is this transfer fee... I asked, a total of 15 years of contract, with eight years to expire, and the annual rent is 80,000 yuan, without increasing ... I can say that given the location of this fruit shop, there is no rent of 150,000 yuan a year, and it is definitely not available now... It is located on the main street of Gulangyu Island, and the concentration of tourists can be said to be one of the best on the whole island. "

 After a deep groan, I replied, "Where are we going to make up the transfer fee of 250,000 yuan?" And the follow-up store has to be renovated, and the rent has to be given for a year, roughly calculated, at least 350,000 yuan must be prepared! "

 "Let's make up the transfer fee first, and then find a way to ... the money later" After a slight pause, Tang Guo said in a very serious tone: "Tang Ning, Yuwei, tell you what I want to say, I am really very tempted by this shop... I've been doing sales for so many years, and I've accumulated a little bit of experience... I can say with certainty that as long as we rent this shop, our bubble tea shop will be half the battle. "

 I nodded, agreeing with Tang Guo's words, of course I know what kind of traffic there is on the main street of "Gulangyu", but this transfer fee is definitely not something that a few of us can afford.

 Tang Ning had the same idea as me, she said with remorse: "If I had known, I wouldn't have gone to your company to buy this second-hand MINI, otherwise, I would have been able to take out 150,000 yuan alone, and my sister would take another 100,000 yuan, which is just enough for the transfer fee... Sister, why don't I sell the car. "

 "I have no objection to you selling cars, but there is a process of selling cars, and it must be too late now... My friend told me that this shop is very popular, but it's not just us who are staring at it; The boss was also anxious to use the money, so he couldn't bear to cut his love, and now the comparison is speed, whoever sends the money over first can sign a transfer contract with him first. "

 "What then?"

 Tang Guo replied: "I'm trying my best here, I should be able to get 150,000 out..."

 Tang Ning also gritted her teeth and agreed: "During this time, the bubble tea shop has made a little money, and I can get 30,000 yuan here." "

 "That's 180,000, and there's still 70,000 short."

 When she said this, Tang Guo set her eyes on me, presumably, she also knew that I received a bonus of 80,000 yuan from the police, but I didn't plan to touch this money at all, so I chose to remain silent.

 With dissatisfaction, Tang Guo said to me: "Aftertaste, it's all this time, are you still hiding there?" "

 "I don't know how to explain it to you, but I really can't touch this money..."

 "I know what's going on in your mind... This money should be borrowed by me and Tang Ning... When Tang Ning sells the car, he will return the money to you... It won't delay you. "

 I was really embarrassed, so I lit myself a cigarette...
