The braised pork knuckle rice was delicious the first time I had it.

After finishing one serving of braised pork knuckle rice, Ye Yuqing was still not full, so she ordered another serving and then shared half of it with Lin Yifeng.

The two fish weren't full, but they weren't given another serving, so they had to finish all the rice in their bowls.

I paid, slung my backpack over my shoulder, and headed out.

On the way, Ye Yuqing, unusually talkative, blinked and asked Lin Yifeng curiously, "What were you guys talking about just now?"

"Someone wants to drown me in the river!"

Lin Yifeng said with a smile, and Ye Yuqing's expression froze instantly. She bent down slightly and placed her hand on the BiuBiuBiu on her tactical pants.

"Let him do it!"

Master Ye was very domineering, and Lin Yifeng felt a sense of security he had never felt before.

"profound!"

Following Ye Yuqing's speaking habits, Lin Yifeng first said "Oh," and then chuckled, "I just asked who the local bully is, and that person told me that you can't mention the local bully's name directly here, or you'll be drowned."

"Ye Yuqing, tell me, isn't this a bit too domineering?"

Ye Yuqing nodded, placing her hand on BiuBiuBiu, a hint of excitement hidden beneath her long eyelashes.

This girl.

Could he really have a violent streak?

Lin Yifeng couldn't help but think of Ye Wuzheng. Ye Wuzheng seemed to be very afraid of his sister, and this fear was a physical one.

You'll have to protect me then!

Lin Yifeng decided to seek Master Ye's protection, and Ye Yuqing nodded heavily, as if making some very important promise.

"Alright, let's go, Changle County!"

Lin Yifeng waved his hand, pointed to the location of Changle County, and strode away.

...

In this era.

If we compare them with other third-tier cities or county towns...

The roads in Fujian Province are far inferior to those in Central Plains Province.

After all, several hundred years ago, the Central Plains was a strategic location fought over by military strategists, and everyone in the world wanted to conquer it.

And what about Fujian Province?

The Land of Exile!

The roads here are in very poor condition and teeming with mosquitoes. Only Lin Yifeng and his group took the main road and did not venture into the jungle.

Otherwise, they would definitely have been overwhelmed by the miasma.

On the bus to Changle, Lin Yifeng sat next to Ye Yuqing, with the two girls sitting behind them.

After more than an hour of shaking, Lin Yifeng and his group finally arrived in Changle County.

The roads in Fujian Province are not very good, they are rugged and bumpy, but the development here is very good, and the economic conditions are much better than those in Central Plains Province.

As a coastal city, Changle County appears very prosperous on the surface, relying on formal or informal means such as fishing and sea hopping.

As soon as Lin Yifeng and Ye Yuqing got off the bus, they saw many people in the station wearing short sleeves, shorts and slippers, holding mobile phones.

At Makino City Bus Station, you can hardly see any mobile phones.

As for the bus stations in Changle County, there aren't many, but if you look around, you can see about ten.

"So many mobile phones?"

"This is a county town? This place is incredibly wealthy!"

The two fish were shocked by the man holding the mobile phone; they hadn't expected that there were so many rich people in such a small county.

"Also a coastal city, it can't even compare to Shantou, let alone Hainan Island."

Lin Yifeng said with a smile, "Chang Le County does look much more prosperous than the inland areas, but that's a benefit of being a coastal area."

Compared to other coastal cities, Changle County is really quite ordinary.

In this era, among the coastal cities, Hainan Island and Shantou experienced relatively rapid development.

Especially Hainan Island, which was extremely exaggerated and outrageous at that time.

With housing prices of over 5,000 yuan per square meter, and cars and televisions everywhere, Hainan Island is nearly 20 years ahead of the mainland in terms of economic prosperity!

Shantou was developing rapidly during that era. If it weren't for that fire later on, people who would have gone out to work and eat braised pork trotters would probably be from Shenzhen.

Perhaps in the future, the "Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen" that migrant workers talk about will become "Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Shantou".

"Let's go, let's find a guesthouse to stay in first."

Lin Yifeng's target was Yang Biaozi, or more precisely, to buy a batch of smuggled goods from Yang Biaozi: arcade games.

In the 1990s, the arcade market in China was practically a red ocean.

If you have three to five arcade machines and are willing to open a shop, you can make money almost effortlessly, if not while lying down.

The arcade boom lasted for 15 years, from 1990 to around 2005.

After the turn of the millennium, although the advent of computers began to impact the arcade market, arcades were still profitable at that time.

Moreover, arcades could easily be converted into internet cafes after the turn of the millennium, and the profits from internet cafes could be enjoyed for 20 years.

From 1990 to 2020, the benefits of arcade games and internet cafes lasted for a full 30 years, which is no exaggeration.

In this day and age, opening an arcade means you could easily live in a large villa 30 years from now.

Arcade games are a highly competitive market, even more profitable than Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream.

But to get into this industry, you need capital and connections.

Lin Yifeng, who has been reborn for almost three months, has barely met this condition.

In terms of connections, he knew Ye Wuzheng, who could deter troublemakers and prevent them from causing trouble in the arcade.

In terms of capital, Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream are both cash cows, with their eight stores contributing between 15,000 and 20,000 yuan in net profit to Lin Yifeng every day.

certainly.

Having capital alone is not enough.

Without access to purchase arcade machines, it's impossible to open an arcade.
