The Red Era: Starting from a Truck Driver

Chapter 198 Just Leave It There
Jiang Cheng lay in the room for a while before being called out by Shen Li for dinner. Zhang Hao and the others naturally put down the cards in their hands.

There were fish, shrimps and meat, which made Zhang Hao and his friends feel a little untidy when eating.

Jiang Cheng is not a gentleman, but at home, he picked up food as if he was snatching it. He kept talking about this and that while eating, and didn't pay attention to the saliva spraying into the food.

It's just that they haven't had enough food every day yet. When they have enough food and drink, they can pick and choose dishes and use chopsticks to stir in a dish. Jiang Cheng really can't eat with them. They are really suitable for eating the single-person barbecued pork rice.

Moreover, in front of Shen Li, he said that he wanted to relax in the evening and said many obscene things.

Jiang Cheng was not the so-called destined son of heaven, and felt that he was just daydreaming. As soon as he arrived in Hong Kong, he was shocked and three capable men came to help him.

However, Jiang Cheng did not expect Zhang Hao and the others to help him accomplish anything big. The main thing was that they would be used in the early stages, so it didn't matter whether they were ugly or not, as long as they could be used.

After dinner, Jiang Cheng went back to his room and lay down to read magazines. Ahao and his friends planned to play cards at home all afternoon. They actually earned thirty yuan each today, so they didn't plan to look for work in the afternoon.

However, they planned to go and find out about Jiang Cheng's commission later when it was not so hot outside. The main thing was to find out where there was a cold storage to store the goods and to find out the price. That was none of their business.

"Brother Cheng~."

"Hmm~."

When Jiang Cheng was lying in the room, Shen Li should have cleaned up the dishes and came in. Facing Shen Li, Jiang Cheng just responded simply, mainly because he didn't know how to treat her.

Shen Li walked to the bedside very cautiously, then lay down on the bed next to Jiang Cheng. Seeing that Jiang Cheng did not resist, she felt relieved and said, "Brother Cheng, is it because the food I made is not very delicious? I saw that you didn't eat much during the meal."

"No, the food you made tasted very good. It's just that Zhang Hao and A Guang kept talking to the table while we were eating, and the key is that they spoke in a swearing way~." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.

There was no need to be so blunt in what he said later. Jiang Cheng didn't say anything about their meal at noon. Mainly because he was afraid of causing conflicts and being accused of looking down on them.

"Brother Cheng, Ahao and the others said they were going to find women at night. Do you want to go?" Shen Li asked, looking at Jiang Cheng's face.

"Don't say such things in the future. I won't touch other women except my wife. If you really want to, I'll do it to you first. I'm going to sleep for a while. I have to go out for something later. I'll leave around 10 o'clock tonight. Can you make fish balls?" Jiang Cheng replied.

"Brother Cheng, I can make fish balls. And if you need help, I know who else here can make it." Shen Li said.

"Okay, next time I come over, you can help make the fish balls. We'll hire someone to cook for everyone then." Jiang Cheng said, and when he saw her hand 'inadvertently' placed on his chest, he didn't stop her.

Now Jiang Cheng really wanted to sleep for a while. He couldn't go back to the mainland too early at night, because the inspection would be strict. But if he went back too late, he would be exhausted and would not be able to sleep well tonight.

So not long after, Jiang Cheng fell asleep despite trying hard to sleep.

But after waking up, Jiang Cheng felt that he would betray Zhou Lingying sooner or later. He pushed Shen Li's legs away from him, said a few words to her, and then left.

In Hong Kong, we exchanged the yellow croaker for more than 2,700 Hong Kong dollars, and bought clothes for five people for more than 150 yuan, all cheap clothes, including the ones Shen Li had made at a tailor shop. We spent 700 yuan on rent and ID cards.

He spent more than 200 yuan on a bicycle, more than 1,000 yuan on processed and leftover cloth, and the food expenses for Shen Li. Jiang Cheng had less than 100 yuan left.

This little yellow croaker is gone too. Next time I come, Jiangcheng will save trouble. I may have to find a scalper to exchange Hong Kong currency. The official exchange rate is more than 1:2, but I can only exchange it to about 1:1.2.

The key is that in Hong Kong banks, you can use Hong Kong dollars to exchange US dollars, British pounds, and island dollars, but there is no exchange for RMB. You can only use the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars to US dollars and RMB to US dollars to convert. The exchange rate can be converted, but it cannot be exchanged in the bank.

Not to mention in China, all foreign currencies are not allowed to be exchanged by individuals. That is why scalpers in Hong Kong have the business of exchanging RMB. If banks can exchange at will, they will not be able to do this business.

One hundred Hong Kong dollars still has strong purchasing power in Hong Kong in this era, especially if you just want to buy some pastries.

Jiang Cheng bought a lot of wife cakes in Hong Kong. He didn't expect that wife cakes were the earliest specialty of Hong Kong. But when you think about it, why are wife cakes called wife cakes instead of daughter-in-law cakes or wife cakes? It's because the word wife was introduced to the mainland from Hong Kong, and there is no such thing as wife in the mainland now.

Then I bought two cans of milk powder and some black sesame paste. In China, you can get malted milk in some big cities. But milk powder can only be bought in state-owned stores and overseas Chinese stores. As for black sesame paste, it is easier to get than milk powder in China, but it is also a nutritious product that is difficult to get.

After buying things, Jiang Cheng had almost spent all his Hong Kong dollars. But on the way back, he saw that kind of thing for sale in front of a store here, and for some reason he bought a box.

After buying the things, Jiang Cheng rode his bike to an empty corner, put the things into the space, and then went back.

Zhang Hao and his friends were still playing cards at home, but they also bought some peanuts and melon seeds to eat while playing cards. Plus, the three of them were smoking, so the living room was filled with smoke.

Jiang Cheng didn't know what to say. At least they didn't go out to gamble. The three of them could play however they wanted. As far as he was concerned, the money didn't go out.

After several people greeted Jiang Cheng, Jiang Cheng responded and went back to his room.

While he was reading a magazine in the room, Shen Li came into the room several times to chat with him.

Until dinner time, Shen Li put some of each dish in a bowl and brought the food into the house for Jiang Cheng.

Zhang Hao called Shen Li "little sister-in-law" because in Hong Kong, the women of big brothers are usually called "big sister-in-law". But in their eyes, Shen Li is at most a concubine, and they even think it's possible to play with her, so calling her "little sister-in-law" is considered good.

"Sister-in-law, you are giving Brother Cheng a special treat. You prepared a special portion for Brother Cheng." A Guang said.

"There is no such thing as a special kitchen. Your brother Cheng wanted me to feed him mouth-to-mouth in the room, so I went to serve Brother Cheng." Shen Li said.

"Brother Cheng is awesome, and Brother Cheng knows how to have fun." Ah Hao said with a smile.

Because of their identities, Zhang Hao and the others didn't dare to make any jokes that were too exaggerated, otherwise they would definitely ask questions.

Shen Li brought the food into the room and said to Jiang Cheng, "Brother Cheng, let's have dinner in the room tonight."

The soundproofing of the house here is not good, Jiang Cheng heard the conversation outside in the room. He knew that Shen Li did this because he disliked that Ahao and his friends would spit some saliva when they ate and talked, so he said that on purpose.

She is a thoughtful girl, but unfortunately she has a bad fate.

After eating in the room, Shen Li went to boil hot water for him to wash his face and feet.

After Zhang Hao and his friends finished their meal, they didn't care that Shen Li was at home at all. They told Jiang Cheng in front of her that they were going out to play with women.

Jiang Cheng had made up his mind that he would definitely look for another house next time he came. If he stayed with Zhang Hao and his friends, those single guys would talk about playing with women every day, and he would be led astray sooner or later.

The key point is that Shen Li is curious about the opposite sex and is defenseless towards him. It's unbearable for him to sleep together with her in such thin white girl's shorts at night.

At night, Jiang Cheng and Shen Li lay in the room waiting for time to pass. Jiang Cheng planned to leave at around 9:30. It would take half an hour to get to the beach from here even if there was a bicycle.

At nine o'clock, Zhang Hao and his friends came back. They were still awake at this time and were playing cards in the living room and talking about the woman they had just played with.

"Brother Cheng, I'll just put it here and I won't move." Shen Li also heard the rude words they said outside, and suddenly she made a bold move towards Jiang Cheng with her hand.

Jiang Cheng seemed to have experienced this before. When he was chasing Zhou Lingying everywhere, he also attacked her one part at a time. At first, he hugged her from outside her clothes, and then one day he put his hand inside her clothes. At first, he just hugged her waist and said he would not move.

But after having the waist, there are other parts. At that time, Jiang Cheng was with Zhou Lingying, and there was not a day that he could not go out without being made blushing by him.

But Shen Li is a bold girl. Although it is outside the clothes, she goes directly to the most critical part.
