I want to be a good person

Chapter 140 Daily Life in Shanghai



Chapter 140 Daily Life in Shanghai

Study hard and make progress every day!

Shanghai's winter has a southern climate and is cold.

There was no sunshine, only a thin mist and the sky was gray.

It's been a long time since I last visited Shanghai, but there was no sunshine to greet me. What a disgrace.

Zhang Aiguo looked out the window, turned around and took a hot bath. The sore and numb feeling dissipated a lot, and he felt lazy all over.

I didn't expect the enthusiasm for learning to be so high. We discussed together, took turns asking questions and speaking, and the process was intense. We also drew several maps to analyze the distribution of language grammar and which accent is more authentic.

"Sir, it's time for breakfast."

Daya came up to call for help.

"coming."

Zhang Aiguo put on his clothes and went out. Those who were pretending to be asleep also got up playfully, although some were still shy.

Being honest and forthright is a quick way to change and bring relationships closer, but only at the right time and with the right people.

Seven or eight maids and servants lived on the first floor. There was a sentry post on duty and several guards took turns to keep watch.

Zhao Dayou's family and guards live on the second floor.

Zhang Aiguo and others lived on the third floor. They kept a big yellow dog and two thin dogs in the garden. They took off their collars at night and let them wander around.

"Dayou, how's the place I asked you to search for?"

"I've found it. I've reported it to Madam. I'm waiting for your decision."

Zhao Dayou was wearing a green cotton robe, standing aside with his hands behind his back, answering the questions. Several guards were also there.

"Sir, are we really going to open a grocery store?"

"what happened?"

Zhang Aiguo looked up.

"I…"

"Why are you hesitating? If you have something to say, just say it. I've said it before, I treat you as brothers, brothers, there's nothing you can't say."

"gentlemen."

The five men looked at each other, and Zhao Dayou bravely said, "Sir, we feel that we can't make money by running that business. We brothers have the skills to help you make a lot of money. We are living too well now. If we follow you, we will soon be smoothed out."

Zhang Aiguo smiled and said, "Why, you are living a good life, but you are still thinking about the bloody past."

"Everyone wants to live a good life, but now we have never thought about it before. At first, we just wanted to have enough food and clothing, and we were satisfied with wine and meat. Sir, you are kind and righteous, but our food and drink expenses have exceeded the industry rules. I feel really bad and always want to do something."

"Well, I understand your feelings. To be honest, I am glad you think this way. I just treat you as brothers. As for your skills, if you don't practice for a day, you will regress seven days. I see some training tools installed in the corner. The guns you brought are the ones you brought with you. The gun numbers are nothing. Shanghai is not comparable to Zhangjiakou."

"Come, sit down and have a cup of tea together."

Zhang Aiguo poured a cup of tea for each of the five people.

Several people stood up hurriedly and took the teacups with both hands.

"You will eventually have to marry and have children. As the old saying goes, there are three types of unfilial behavior, and the worst is to have no offspring. We must have a respectable identity. It doesn't matter whether we make money or not, as long as you can continue the family line. If anything happens, I will be responsible for raising them and will not cut off the incense."

"gentlemen...."

......

Several people were very excited. Although they were forced by life at the beginning and could not even solve the problem of food and clothing, how could they have the money to marry a wife? It was very thoughtful.

Zhang Aiguo looked at the excited expressions of the crowd, picked up the small teacup and drank it all.

No one dares to use a lonely man without any evidence in their hands. In this chaotic world where people are willing to kill for a bite of food, I must serve you wholeheartedly under the banner of doing good for you.

Zhao Dayou quickly filled the fairness cup with tea.

"Da You, you can read people's expressions now."

Zhang Aiguo joked.

"Sir, this is what I should do."

"Send a message to your family as soon as possible, arrange a blind date, and complete the big thing as soon as possible. I will pay for it."

"Sir, no need. We still have the reward you gave us. It's enough."

"It's a gift. I'll go to my wife and get 20 dollars. We want to be dignified and not let others suffer any loss."

"Yes, thank you sir."

Several people expressed their gratitude in unison.

"Hey, Dayou, why are you thanking me? You have to marry another one too."

"Hahaha"

"Hehehe"

"Sir, that's a good thing."

Which lady is in charge of the money?

Everyone knows it well, and although there is no distinction between senior and junior on the surface, there must be someone in charge, and this has become a custom.

"Go back one by one to marry a wife, and then bring her to Shanghai. The situation is unstable now, so it's safer to keep her by your side."

"We all listen to the master."

"The concession is a bit chaotic, and there are many black hands behind the scenes. When a few of us didn't come back, we heard that there were flies. For me, no matter if it's a fly or a tiger, if it provokes us, we will kill it with one blow."

"Sir, we are waiting for your order."

The four of them were ready to go, feeling inexplicably excited.

"The International Settlement is economically prosperous, but not as safe as the French Concession. I will go to the French Concession and buy a large Western-style building where we can all live."

"Sir, what about the house over here?"

"Keep it. You now have people in the open and in the dark. Do you have any brothers who know you well and whom you can trust?"

"How many do you need, sir?"

"Sir, we are all men, and it is not convenient for us to accompany the wife. I have two apprentice sisters who are very good at kung fu and are very good at throwing knives and darts. I think we should call them up as well?"

Zhao Dayou quickly interjected.

I have long wanted to call my junior sister up, but my other thoughts have been dashed. Her appearance is still a little lacking.

After thinking for a while with his head down, Zhang Aiguo felt depressed. It was all Xiao Zhang's fault. He was the only one who was happy. Alas.

But on second thought, being an ascetic is not a good idea. I can't always rely on the twin girls to solve problems.

"Okay, call them up as well. The monthly salary is the same, so it will just free up some of your manpower."

"Sir, how many people do you need?"

"Dayou is still in charge of the family and helping Madam to manage the two shops."

"clear."

"You four people, each of you only need three people under you. You can choose yourselves, secretly, and live alone. Sometimes you need to do dirty work. The key is loyalty. Starting from the day everyone is here, your monthly salary will increase by 50%."

"Yes, sir, we'll do it right away."

"Let me be frank. You are fully responsible for your people. The monthly salary is the same as what you have now. We are all trying to survive. It is taboo to betray your own people. How to deal with problems? You should know in your mind."

"understood"

The four people were startled. They must be more careful when choosing people and cannot be careless. It is better to be safe than sorry.

The streets are like the world, foggy and the air is damp. A slight breeze makes you feel cold to the bone.

The grain shop was located in the French Concession. An agreement was signed with the landlord. Zhang Aiguo held the key and Yang Zichao had just posted a recruitment notice.

The man hasn't returned to the shop yet.

"Boss, are you hiring here?"

The applicants came.

Zhang Aiguo was surprised. What a bunch of wind! Where did the wind come from?

Although the government boasted beautifully, with all the flowers and flowers, and all the data were on the rise, unfortunately there was a gap in the middle, which resulted in you talking about yours and I feeling uncomfortable about mine, and we really had no connection with each other's joys and sorrows, and the height and angle of the problem were inconsistent.

Beef was so cheap in the Republic of China. Was it because of the huge number of deaths caused by bragging?

Falsifying data is the most difficult. It has to look good, maintain growth, and not be outrageous. It is a purely technical job.

Awesome, my brother! Salute!
