Hu Juncai took a rickshaw all the way to the Causeway Bay Tenement House where Shi Zhijian lived.
After getting out of the car, I picked up my briefcase and was about to leave when the driver shook the towel around his neck and said, "You haven't paid me yet."
Hu Juncai quickly turned his head away, apologized very apologetically, took out the newly bought crocodile leather wallet from his arms, took out three yuan from the wallet and handed it to the driver.
The fare from where Hu Juncai lived here was two yuan and eighty cents. The driver thought the remaining two cents were a reward, so he put it in his pocket and pulled the car away.
This time it was Hu Juncai's turn to stop him, "You haven't changed yet!"
The driver had no choice but to find two cents and throw them to Hu Juncai, cursing in his mouth: "You dress like a dog, but you are also a lonely guy!"
Hu Juncai ignored the coachman's curse. It was not easy for him to get money, and every penny he could save was worth it.
Arriving below the tenement building, Hu Juncai took a look at the five-story tenement building. This was his first time at Shi Zhijian's house. He couldn't help but sigh, when would he be able to buy a building like Mr. Shi? It would cost almost twenty
Wanba, I'm afraid I can't do it without eating or drinking in this life.
Downstairs, former tenant Deng Jiugong was doing Tai Chi in a circle.
Hu Juncai stepped forward and asked, "Hello, does Mr. Shi Zhijian live here?"
Deng Jiugong has long been accustomed to being questioned.
Since Shi Zhijian and his friends moved here, many people have come over to ask him this question.
Pointing to the third floor, Deng Jiugong was too lazy to answer.
Hu Juncai understood and said thank you, then looked at the stairs on the left, walked over, walked along the stairs, picked up his briefcase and went upstairs.
When he arrived on the third floor, Hu Juncai called out: "Is Mr. Shi here?"
The door opened, and Shi Zhijian poked his head out of the room and hooked his hand: "Come in!"
Hu Juncai hurriedly ran over. As soon as he entered the room, he opened the briefcase he was holding, took out all the information contained in it and handed it to Shi Zhijian: "This is the Shek Kip Mei area map. This is the Shek Kip Mei Industrial Zone.
The drawings for the division of residential areas, and this is the draft guidance for the construction of water towers from the Water Supplies Department..."
Shi Zhijian took the materials, lit a cigarette, found a seat and read through them carefully.
This time he has a big plan, which is to buy Shek Kip Mei!
To be precise, he planned to buy a large piece of land in Shek Kip Mei and build a factory here.
Nowadays, the daily output of Yuen Long Factory and To Kwa Wan Factory has reached its limit. If we want to continue to produce instant noodles and beverages in large quantities, we must open branch factories.
What's more, Shi Zhijian is still thinking about cooperating with Kowloon Walled City. When the time comes, the demand from the other party will be even greater, so it is urgent to open a branch factory.
There are three reasons why Shi Zhijian chose Shek Kip Mei.
First, the location of Shek Kip Mei has strong advantages. Shek Kip Mei is in the west of Kowloon, To Kwa Wan is in the east of Kowloon, and Yuen Long is located in the New Territories. Building a branch factory in Shek Kip Mei can be used as a transfer station.
In terms of coordination, supplies will be allocated to Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories.
Second, cheap labor is concentrated in Shek Kip Mei. When the lame man Wu Shihao came to Hong Kong to start a business, he stayed in Shek Kip Mei. He used Shek Kip Mei as a base and opened a Chinese flower stall to lay a solid foundation for his future business. It can be said that Shek Kip Mei is
This area has the most poor people and the largest labor force. As long as they have food to eat, everyone is willing to do anything.
Third, and most importantly, according to the information given by Wu Juncai, it is simply impossible to build a water tower privately in Shek Kip Mei. The Water Supplies Department will never approve such private behavior, because it will be difficult to stop it once it is started.
Live in a car. And Hong Kong is a place with extremely poor water resources. If everyone builds private water towers, the water resources will dry up sooner or later. Even if the east water is diverted, Hong Kong cannot be saved.
The only honest way to solve the water problem in Shek Kip Mei is to open a factory and apply to the higher authorities to build an industrial water system, and at the same time help the people of Shek Kip Mei solve the water problem.
Now, facing a lot of information, Shi Zhijian has almost made up his mind. All that remains is how to apply for land approval from the authorities, and how to raise huge sums of money to buy land and build a factory.
Just when Shi Zhijian was thinking about it, Hu Juncai suddenly said cautiously: "Mr. Shi, I wonder where the toilet in Baodi is? I need to pee!"
But it turned out that he was in too much of a hurry when he arrived and had been holding back his urine until now. Just now, Shi Zhijian was in a hurry to ask for information and asked him questions, and he had no time to go to the bathroom to solve the problem.
Shi Zhijian looked at the information in his hand and pointed outside, "Left, turn right!"
"Thank you!" Hu Juncai nodded and bent down, holding his stomach and jumping out.
…
Hu Juncai finally found the toilet, pointed at the urine bucket, and hurriedly unfastened the waistband of his pants with trembling hands, but the waistband was tied too tight, and it took him a long time to untie it. At this time, his hands shook, and a spurt of urine came out.
On hand.
Hu Juncai didn't care much, he closed his eyes and felt the pleasure brought by the release below.
The strong pressure in his abdomen gradually disappeared. Hu Juncai opened his eyes and took a deep breath. He felt that the happiest thing in life was this. Then he realized that his hands were cold, so he simply tied the waistband of his pants with a few fingers and wrinkled it.
I walked out of the hut with a frown on my face, looked at the urine stain on the back of my hand, shook it off, then brought it to my nose and smelled it. I felt it was very dirty and yellow, and I wondered if I had been angry recently.
Hu Juncai came to the faucet in the corridor, turned on the faucet and was about to wash his hands when he saw Shi Zhijian's sister Shi Yufeng coming out with disheveled hair and looking at him as if she had lost her soul.
Hu Juncai hurriedly washed his hands, took care of his middle-parted hair, and shook his hair handsomely, then he said with a smile: "Sister Yufeng, it's you, I thought I recognized the wrong person! What's wrong with you?
Are you there? You look uncomfortable?"
Shi Yufeng looked at Hu Juncai, "I lost my money."
"Lost money? How much money was lost? I can understand. I also lost money before, and it was the money I spent to buy legal materials. It's so heartbreaking!" Hu Juncai looked considerate.
"I lost thirty thousand yuan!"
"Thirty thousand?" Hu Juncai was dumbfounded and looked at Shi Yufeng carefully. What a rich little woman!
"Am I embarrassed? I lost so much!"
"It's a bit! I deeply understand your mood at the moment! How about this, let's go in and sit down, and I can listen to you. When you encounter something sad or bad, it's best to find someone to talk to.
!”
Hu Juncai took the initiative and took Shi Yufeng into the house.
Shi Yufeng returned to the room and sat down on the bedside of his bed. Hu Juncai looked around and hurriedly poured water for Shi Yufeng's tea, making him look like the master of the house.
Then he sat down on the side of Shi Yufeng's bed with his butt half pulled up, held tea in both hands and handed it to Shi Yufeng, and said to Shi Yufeng: "Sister Yufeng, drink tea first! Come, let's have a heart-to-heart talk about the fact that you lost 30,000 yuan!"
"
…
A moment.
"In this way, I donated all 30,000 yuan to build a water tower for the neighbors in Shek Kip Mei."
Shi Yufeng poured out all her grievances like beans.
Hu Juncai crossed his arms, held his chin with the other hand, nodded, and said in a very affirmative tone: "Sister Yufeng, your story really makes people feel the same! Thirty thousand yuan is not a small amount, and it's you again.
Who knows that it hurts my heart to save all the hard-earned money after taking so long?!"
Shi Yufeng couldn't bear it anymore and cried "Wow".
Hu Juncai was in a hurry and found a tissue and handed it to Shi Yufeng.
Shi Yufeng took a tissue and wiped her tears first, then blew her nose, and then returned the tissue to Hu Juncai.
Hu Juncai took the dirty tissue and threw it away, and it didn't matter if he didn't throw it away, so he put it in his pocket and comforted Shi Yufeng: "The matter is over, sister Yufeng, don't be sad! Although 30,000 yuan is a lot, it doesn't mean we can't save it!"
Besides, you have done a good deed, and it is a great deed! Since ancient times, helping people drink water is to increase their luck and longevity! Maybe those people in Shek Kip Mei will treat you as a living Bodhisattva.
Come on! So Sister Yufeng, if you want to be more open-minded, just lose the money, as long as you lose it happily!"
It was rare for Shi Yufeng to receive such considerate comfort.
Ever since something happened, my younger brother has never comforted me. At most, he said, "I'll give you the money! Don't worry about it, just relax!"
Am I, Shi Yufeng, the kind of person who covets my younger brother’s money? Even if I want money, I have to earn it myself!
Thinking of this, Shi Yufeng became excited and couldn't help but hold Hu Juncai's hand and said with tears in her eyes: "Juncai, you still understand me!"
