"Sorry, I'm not familiar with foreign guests, so I can't exchange foreign currency casually." Xu Erlong replied and walked forward.
Sun Weili refused to give up and wanted to follow.
Qiao Lifu stepped forward with his left foot and stood firmly in front of Sun Weili, blocking her path. Then, he glared at Sun Weili fiercely.
There was a serious warning in his eyes, and he almost raised his fist and said directly: "Don't think that because you are a woman, I won't dare to hit you. As long as you dare to come forward to harass you again, my fists will not distinguish between men and women."
."
Sun Weili was frightened by Qiao Lifu's eyes. Mom, what kind of eyes does this man have? It's so scary.
This made Sun Weili temporarily give up her plan to continue following.
After handing over the shift with her colleagues, Sun Weili packed her small satchel and went home.
Her family lives in Pudong.
It is obviously so close to where she works, but just because there is a river across it, the geographical gap is not just one or two points.

Every day, she has to catch the ferry from Pudong to Puxi.
"I would rather have a bed in Puxi than a room in Pudong." This is the most familiar sentence I hear every day.
Ever since she was little, a trip to Puxi has made her feel as happy as entering the city.
Now, I go to work in Puxi every day, and after get off work, I have to drag my exhausted body to squeeze on the ferry and rush back to Pudong.
The area where her home is located is full of shantytowns. When it rains, there are all dirt roads, and there is not a single decent building around.
Back then, her ancestors moved here from other places and took root here.
Now, with the death of the older generation, she is now the only one.
She used to think about marrying Puxi and becoming a real city dweller.
But with the spring breeze of reform and the arrival of many crooked nuts, Sun Weili's mind changed.
It is better to go abroad.
Therefore, Sun Weili is now preparing to go abroad.
She wants to find a way, she wants to find foreign exchange.
It's a pity that the guest house where she works is not high enough to receive foreign guests. When she is not working, she will often go to places where foreign guests hang out, trying her best to try her luck.
It's a pity that these days, there are too many girls like her who have sex written all over their faces, and Sun Weili never has a chance.
She thought again of the young man who stayed in the guest house today.
Although the letter of introduction stated that he was from a small village in a mainland city, he was well-dressed, spoke standard Mandarin, and had foreign currency on him.
And, most importantly, the person following him looked like a bodyguard.
Maybe, someone has some connections?
There have always been legends in this Shanghai stock market. Countless poor boys have come here to make a living and have many opportunities to become famous. This is a paradise for adventurers.
Sun Weili decided to take another risk.
The next day, Xu Erlong went out, and Qiao Lifu was still following him.
Just as Sun Weili came over to change her shift, she watched the two of them walk out of the guest house one after another.
That grandeur and posture are just like the big boss in the movie followed by bodyguards.
She felt that Xu Erlong should be able to exchange foreign exchange, but he was just unwilling to do so.
Xu Erlong bought some more gifts in the department store.
There are cigarettes, wine, tea, and even chocolate.
Then, he began to visit his first target.
This old master is only in his fifties. It is said that he took the initiative to step down and let his children take over the job in order to take care of their children's employment. His shoemaking skills are quite good.
Xu Erlong felt that it would be easier to persuade a retired master in his fifties to go to other places.
After all, my health is fine, and I still have children and grandchildren to support, so I want to earn more money, which is what I should do.
Unexpectedly, when he found this old man's home, he saw the old man going out with his bag.
After questioning, it was found that although the old man was retired, he was not idle. He made leather shoes at home and sold them to earn some money. He had no interest in going to other places.
Seeing this, Xu Erlong didn't waste any words.
He took the list and started to visit the second person.
Although the second person is a little older, he has a son who has opened a restaurant. He has to help out and is unable to leave, and he has no interest in going to other places.
I visited several people in this way, but for one reason or another, no one wanted to go.
I'm used to hearing other people come to Shanghai to hunt for gold. After all, this is a paradise for adventurers, and who wants to leave here and go to a small county outside of town?
Even if Xu Erlong offered three times the salary, no one would be willing to go.
Qiao Lifu watched from the side, feeling discouraged.
Sure enough, in this world, martial arts training is the simplest and most direct. If you are not convinced, just raise your fists and go forward. There is no need for so many twists and turns.
Xu Erlong was not discouraged and continued to look for the next target.
, the family’s surname is Tao, who has also retired, and now works outside to look after shops, earning a salary of dozens of dollars a month.
Since you are willing to work as a storekeeper for others, you can always impress me by paying three times your salary and promising some other benefits, right?
Sure enough, Xu Erlong talked about this matter with Master Tao at Tao's house. Master Tao had not yet agreed, but his son and daughter-in-law strongly agreed.
Looking at this small home, you can understand what his son and daughter-in-law are thinking.
There are two bunk beds, with a desk next to the bed and a spittoon next to it. Then, the dining table is placed here. The whole family eats, drinks, and sleeps in such a small room with less than ten people.
square meters of space.
You know, the housing shortage in Shanghai is well-known throughout the country. In the early 1980s, including all the habitable areas including attics, stoves, terraces, etc., the per capita area was only 4.51 square meters. And those with less than four square meters
Housing accounts for 60% of the total number of households in the city.
Dojo inside a screw shell is the best way to describe the housing of people in Shanghai. The words "Liao Liao" describe all the scenes of people in Shanghai living in a narrow and shabby place.
Now, when I heard that Xu Erlong asked Master Tao to work elsewhere, he was not only willing to pay three times the salary, but also provided accommodation for his son and daughter-in-law. Naturally, he was happy and agreed.
With one person gone, the home naturally becomes a little more spacious.
Master Tao was unhappy when his son and daughter-in-law agreed.
This is to drive him out.
However, he also knows that housing is tight, which is an indisputable fact.
"Master Tao, we are really sincere. If you have any concerns, you can tell us." Xu Erlong asked Master Tao.
"Aren't you liars?" Master Tao asked.
Xu Erlong chuckled and said: "Master Tao, you are so funny when you talk, why should I lie to you? I have been making leather shoes in your factory for so long, and my reputation is guaranteed. Now I just want to open my own leather shoe factory.
That’s why I’ve come to ask you masters to give me some eye care.”
