"Sweet and sour spare ribs, braised pork, boiled chicken, stir-fried vegetables with garlic, and a soup." Qin Zijin took the menu, waved his hand, and ordered several dishes.
The people around were originally attracted by her and were now paying attention to what was going on here. When they heard that so many dishes were ordered, they immediately looked at them several more times.
Jiang Zhenlong brought four younger brothers, plus Qin Zijin's family of five, exactly ten people, sitting at a round table.
Qin Zijin ordered quite a few dishes, exactly twelve in total including the dishes and soup.
These meat dishes are not cheap. A whole meal will cost over a hundred yuan.
No one would be so wasteful as to eat so much.
Even the waiter who came to take the order couldn't help but look at Qin Zijin a few more times, wondering where this nouveau riche came from. Even if he has money, he doesn't eat like that.
But since they had money and were willing to spend it, she was happy too. She wrote down the menu and repeated it to Qin Zijin before going to the kitchen to instruct them to cook.
Jiang Zhenlong glanced at the menu and felt a little pain in his stomach. "Sister-in-law, are you eating too much?"
"Our first meal here should be something better as a celebration. We won't eat out casually like this in the future." Qin Zijin shook her head slightly.
After all, Jiang Zhenlong had left his hometown with his men, so she wouldn't be so reluctant to treat him to a good meal.
Qin Zijin not only ordered dishes, but also ordered wine.
She poured a cup for Tang Shen and the others, but she didn't drink it herself.
I don’t drink well and I’m afraid I’ll make a fool of myself after drinking.
The dishes were served quite quickly. Qin Zijin took a bite and found them delicious. After all, anyone who was selected to be a chef in a state-owned restaurant must have some skills.
The family ate and drank well. After they were full, Qin Zijin paid the bill. When they heard the number, everyone frowned.
A meal cost more than 100 yuan, which is equivalent to the average family's income for half a year.
What a luxury.
"Go back and have a good rest tonight, and then split up tomorrow morning, in groups of two. Dad, you stay at home and look after the two children, you don't need to go out." Qin Zijin divided the work and gave another instruction.
Although Qin Zijin has already planned what to do here, it is still necessary to familiarize himself with the environment.
Today's Guangzhou City is very different from what it was decades later.
After several days of bumpy journey, even Qin Zijin felt a little tired.
I didn't think about anything that night and fell asleep.
I got up very early the next day, sat on the bed with my eyes open, looking at the unfamiliar environment. My mind was blank for a long time before I gradually came back to my senses.
They have left Shangao Village.
Qin Zijin let out a breath slowly, got up quickly and put on his clothes. He looked at Tang Simeng who was sleeping soundly on the bed and didn't call her.
I went out and took a walk around the neighborhood.
There was someone selling breakfast outside at this time. He was riding a tricycle and selling soy milk, fried dough sticks, and tofu pudding.
This tofu pudding is very simple to make. Just pour honey or syrup over the tender tofu, or mix it with some sugar.
Qin Zijin bought some tofu pudding, and ordered a cup of soy milk and a fried dough stick for each person. She also bought a lot of meat buns, and then carried the bags back to the guesthouse.
"Hey, are you the guests who checked in yesterday?" When Qin Zijin arrived at the door of the guesthouse and was about to go upstairs, the girl at the front desk suddenly called out in confusion.
Qin Zijin turned his head to look at her.
Yesterday they were received by a middle-aged woman in her forties, but today they were replaced by a young girl of seventeen or eighteen. The girl had bright eyes and white teeth and was quite pretty.
Seeing that the pretty girl was in a good mood, Qin Zijin nodded and said, "She just moved in yesterday afternoon."
"No wonder I've never seen you before. Are you here to play or to visit relatives?" The little girl looked at Qin Zijin's good looks and couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
"Neither." Qin Zijin shook his head slightly.
"Are you also here to find a job? If you want to find a job, you have to go to the factory. I know the locations of two factories. If you need anything, I can tell you." The girl started chatting with Qin Zijin enthusiastically.
"Then do you know where there are houses for sale? I want to buy a house." Qin Zijin thought for a while and suddenly asked.
The little girl didn't expect her to ask this. She was stunned for a moment, then thought for a while before her eyes lit up and nodded, "I know. Do you want to buy it now?"
"Yes, the sooner the better." Qin Zijin suddenly felt that there was a chance.
"Then come with me later and I'll take you." The little girl grinned when she heard that, her eyebrows and eyes curved with a smile.
"By the way, my name is Gu Niansheng."
"My name is Qin Zijin."
The two exchanged names. Qin Zijin was in a good mood. He hummed a little tune and went upstairs with soy milk and fried dough sticks.
When I got back, I told Tang Shen the good news.
After the family had breakfast, Jiang Zhenlong took a few of his younger brothers out to look for a place to rent as a waste recycling station, while Qin Zijin and Tang Can went out to look at houses.
Gu Niansheng watched them come down, especially when he saw that there was a man following Qin Zijin, he couldn't help but look at Tang Shen again, and then he chattered with Qin Zijin.
You can see that the little girl is very enthusiastic, a little chatty and very warm-hearted.
The house she was talking about was not too far from here, and was originally occupied by an elderly couple.
A few years ago, the old man lost his life because of that movement. Although the old lady saved her life, she felt it was meaningless.
Now that the children are all abroad, and seeing that the old lady is getting old, they want to bring her abroad, so they plan to sell the house.
That person happened to be Gu Niansheng's neighbor, and the little girl only knew about this matter after hearing the elders in her family mention it.
These days, there are still only a few people who buy and sell houses.
"Sister Zijin, this is it." About half an hour later, Gu Niansheng brought Qin Zijin and Tang Can to the door of a large house in Xiguan.
Qin Zijin looked a little confused.
Xiguan Mansion?
She originally thought it was just an ordinary bungalow, but she didn't expect it to be such a house!
Such well-maintained Xiguan mansions would be worth at least hundreds of millions of yuan in later generations, and there would be no market for them.
Qin Zijin was a little excited, but he also knew that the price of this house would probably be quite high.
She didn't know if she could get the job with the little money she had.
Even if I really buy it, I don’t have enough working capital. How can I continue the business?
For a moment, Qin Zijin hesitated.
However, despite his hesitation, he still followed Gu Niansheng in.
"Grandma Ye, I brought guests to you. They want to buy your house." Gu Niansheng shouted crisply into the house and led Qin Zijin and Tang Can into the house.
The threshold of the Xiguan Mansion is high. When you step in, you will first see a foyer, which is blocked by a screen.
After walking around the screen, there is a patio.
The patio was nicely decorated with many flowers and plants. An old lady with gray hair was sitting in the patio, basking in the sun.
Only when he heard the sound did he open his eyes and look towards Qin Zijin and Tang Can.
