Traveling through 1942 with space

Chapter 248 Two Surprised Families

"By the way, Ah Fa, please invite your brother and Boss He to come over tonight.

I just came to America and I only know these few friends. Now that I am almost settled, let's have dinner together at my home." Hou Xiaoge instructed.

"Row!"

After the car stopped in front of the Fulin Hotel, Hou Xiaoge and a group of guards got out. They all wore black suits, giving people a sense of keeping strangers away.

"Wangzai, are you going home at night? If not, just stay with Lao Liu and the others, and drive for me recently." The temporary driver at the door of Hou Xiaoge's house asked with a smile.

"Boss, my family also lives in Chinatown. Can I go back and talk to my family and come over in the evening?" The young man in his early twenties looked embarrassed.

There was no way. The boss's salary of five dollars a day was so good that he couldn't bear to give it up.

"Relax, I don't eat people, and since I live in Chinatown, it's easy.

You don't have to come over at night. Give Lao Liu your home address. If he needs a car, ask him to call you." Hou Xiaoge patted Wangzai's shoulder and said with a smile.

"Thank you, thank you boss!" Wangzai was excited and bowed repeatedly.

"Let's go!"

After entering the lobby, Hou Xiaoge directly asked the waiter to prepare a table.

As for the accommodation at night, I simply changed to a large suite, which solved the problem of guarding and resting at night.

"Old Liu, you guys have been following me for a whole day, you must be hungry! I just told the waiter that I have prepared some food, you can go and fill your stomach then." Hou Xiaoge said with a smile as he looked at the six guards following behind him.

"Okay, boss!"

The remaining four people continued to follow Hou Xiaoge, while the others took turns going to eat in pairs.

On the other side, Zhang Xiaonao parked his car in front of his restaurant and honked the horn, causing the people eating in the restaurant and Zhang Juncai's family to look outside.

"What kind of person is this! Does he have any sense of public morality? It's just a grain truck! He honks his horn randomly, it's so noisy." Customers in the store murmured.

But no one dared to tell anyone about it. After all, they only earned 23 yuan a month. It would take them 20 to 30 years to save up for such a car. They really couldn't afford it.

As the boss of the store, Zhang Juncai also had some assets and was an outer disciple of the Hongmen, so he was not afraid of the people driving outside the door, so he naturally had to go out and persuade them.

Because it was a little dark, Zhang Juncai didn't see the people in the car and could only give polite advice.

"Hello, sir. It's time for dinner now. Please don't disturb others, otherwise I can only ask the law enforcement officers of the Hongmen." Zhang Juncai said as he walked to the front of the car.

"Hey! Dad, it's me, Xiaonao." Zhang Xiaonao rolled down the passenger window and greeted him with a smile.

"Damn, I thought it was water! Turns out it was you, you idiot. Why are you honking the horn so late at night? Don't you know it's noisy?" Zhang Jun changed his role immediately when he saw that it was his son, and started cursing.

Zhang Juncai felt that what he had just said was a bit embarrassing, so he got into the car and pulled his son's ears.

"Dad, wait, wait. This is the boss's car, worth more than a thousand dollars! Be careful not to get it crushed." Zhang Xiaonao watched his father trying to get in through the car window and quickly found an excuse to stop him.

"Humph!"

When Zhang Jun heard the amount of more than a thousand US dollars, his hands trembled and he walked out.

"This is the car one of my fellow villagers just bought today, right?

How did you drive it back? If it was scratched, it would take several months for our family to earn back the money." Zhang Jun walked around the car, then opened the passenger door and got in.

"Dad, it's okay, the boss is rich and doesn't care about these little things!

Dad, is the store busy? The boss asked me to treat you to a big meal at a nearby hotel." Zhang Xiaonao said with a smile.

"I will be busy for a while. It won't be so busy after this wave of guests leave. I'm going to go in and get busy. I'll ask you something on my way home." Zhang Juncai experienced the luxury car for a while and reluctantly opened the car door.

"I won't go in. If someone scratches my car on the side of the road, I won't be able to explain to my boss on my first day driving." Zhang Xiaonao said proudly.

"Get lost! Who is so full that he dares to scratch a car? Are you dissatisfied with the money in your pocket that you have too much to spend?" Zhang Juncai scolded angrily.

"hey-hey!"

"Lao Zhang, I saw you got on the car just now. What's going on? Do you know the boss in the car?" Customers kept asking Zhang Juncai after he entered the store.

"Whoa!"

"It's nothing. My second son is now a driver for a big boss! He drove the new car I just picked up today and I scolded him just now." Zhang Juncai said proudly.

"That's incredible! I heard that the monthly salary of a driver is very high, it can't be more than 50 yuan."

"Mr. Zhang, your second son is amazing! He was still working as a noodle dealer yesterday, and today he's a driver."

"The second child is a good kid. He has shown a promising future since he was young." Everyone talked about it.

……

"Oh! That guy doesn't have that ability. I introduced him. His boss is my fellow villager, and for my sake, he paid the guy 100 yuan a month." Zhang Juncai said proudly.

"Is that so! As they say, age makes the best, and this Mr. Zhang is really good." Several diners gave Zhang Juncai a thumbs up.

"Lao Zhang, does your fellow villager still need someone? I'll do odd jobs for you." Someone's eyes lit up and he wanted to find a good job.

"Yes! Lao Zhang, my daughter is eighteen years old this year. Why don't we let the two children meet each other someday?" A burly man with broad shoulders and a big waist said with a flattering look on his face.

"Old Liu, your daughter's figure is almost as good as that of a female demon. My second son's waist can't bear it."

Zhang Juncai was quite pleased at first, but when he saw that it was the butcher Liu who introduced his 1.5 meter tall, 200 kilograms daughter, he was shocked.

Even Zhang Xiaonao, who had just walked in and was about to say hello to everyone, was frightened when he heard the voice. He was afraid of the fat black girl on the street, so he quickly slipped in through the side door where he lived nearby.

Huang Jiafa was also lucky. He put the fifty US dollars that Hou Xiaoge gave him today in his pocket, went to the meat jerky shop which was about to close, and bought ten pounds of fat pork for five dollars.

[Some people here may say that an 800-pound cow only sells for US$35, and a pound of pork is only worth 50 cents, which is really outrageous.

But what I want to say is, can the price at the farm be the same as the price at the supermarket? During the financial crisis in the United States, farmers lost money and poured milk into the river, but ordinary people still cannot afford to drink milk in supermarkets.

So this is the reason, sometimes the sales price may be ten times or more than the place of origin. 】

"Afa, are you living a normal life? Why did you cut so much meat? Our family can't eat so much in half a year!" Ren Ying was also shocked when she saw her cousin bringing back such a big piece of fat meat.

"It's okay, sister-in-law, you can use some of the pork to make oil, and use the rest to make braised pork for the children." Huang Jiafa handed the meat to his cousin's wife and said with a smile.

"You are too extravagant. Your brother hasn't come back yet. I'm going to make some braised pork and you two can have a drink in the evening." Although Ren Ying said this while holding the meat, she couldn't hide the joy on her face.

“No need, sister-in-law, just do it for you and your nephews!

I'll wait for my cousin here. The boss said he would treat my cousin to dinner at Fulin Hotel, so we don't have to cook dinner." Huang Jiafa loosened his tie and explained.

"Oh! I was just busy talking. Afa, your suit looks so neat and handsome!" Ren Ying praised Huang Jiafa as she looked at him in a suit.
