Although the city that never sleeps is a city with a large gap between the rich and the poor and a high cost of living,

the elite and ordinary classes work very hard,

the social security is so bad that dozens of people die every day,

it is a contradictory combination of violence, psychedelics and chaos.

But to be honest, the public transportation is not bad.

The skytrain connecting major urban areas,

the bus stops all over the streets and alleys,

the low ticket price for traveling around the city with the price of a can of Coke,

daily travel is quite convenient.

But if you look at it from another angle, you will immediately feel terrified.

Apart from anti-gravity aircraft, most people choose land transportation to commute.

If the traffic is often jammed, a lot of time will be wasted on it.

There are only 24 hours in a day,

spending one more hour means one less hour of work.

It is impossible for office workers to live and eat in the company completely,

and they don’t have enough financial ability to rent a high-end apartment near the business district.

Faced with the squeezing space that slipped away, the company boss's heart was bleeding.

This can explain why the city that never sleeps, which is extremely unfriendly to ordinary people, has invested a lot of financial and material resources to build a complete public transportation system.

Thanks to this,

Qin Nuo and Afra, two poor people, took a double-decker bus,

started from the White Pigeon Shopping Center,

all the way north through Blackthorn Street, Jacob Avenue, Pacific Manor,

and successfully arrived at the destination after 40 minutes.

Coconut Restaurant located in Cream Square in Hayward District.

Well,

Although the sign of this store says "restaurant",

the exterior decoration and interior furnishings are really not related to restaurants.

Dance floor, bar chairs, long counter, wine cabinet, colorful magic ball lights,

there are all the things that a bar should have.

Not to mention sitting in the corner booth,

a small vest, jeans, and moccasins,

his arms are full of tattoos, and he looks like a gangster watching the scene.

Even so,

There are still many customers coming to eat at noon.

Hamburgers, pizza, French fries, fried chicken, watermelon juice,

The waiter carried a full plate,

and shuttled between the seats, busy all the time.

The Mexican man in the kitchen who was responsible for washing dishes,

his arms were as fast as a whirlwind and lightning,

his palms also wanted to wipe out sparks from the plates.

It's a pity that as soon as he finished one pile, another pile was immediately added,

The plates were always piled up like a mountain, and he could never finish them.

After entering the store, Qin Nuo glanced at the restaurant's price list,

1 SGD spicy fried chicken,

2 SGD cheese macaroni,

10 SGD buy 5 get 1 free donut,

5 SGD limited refills of cream puffs,

Free peeled bananas for membership.

It is affordable and the quantity is large.

No wonder the business is so good. It turns out that the route is small profits but quick turnover.

Afra asked Qin Nuo to wait at the bar for a while,

and went to the third floor box with ease to find Hansen Wang.

At the door,

a fat and strong white man sat on a stool.

He looked so fierce and fierce that

it was almost written on his face that "I am a bodyguard".

"Excuse me, is Hansen Wang here?"

Afra raised the corner of her mouth and smiled kindly.

"It's you again. You really know how to pick the time."

The white-skinned man raised his eyelids and said indifferently: "The boss is talking about something. Come back later."

"Oh, okay."

Afra smiled and persisted: "How long will it take? Can half an hour be okay?"

She would not have done this in the past.

The main reason was that the order last night was messed up.

Not only did she not make a penny, but she also lost thousands of dollars.

When she thought of the two mouths to feed at home,

and the daily expenses such as rent, water and electricity,

if she didn't take the new commission quickly, she would be out of money soon.

That's why,

Afra took the risk to find Qin Nuo. Proposed a cooperation request.

"I told you to wait, didn't you understand?"

The white man was a little impatient, and his face was shaking:

"You came here the day before yesterday, and you came again today.

Look at your dirty face, it's probably that you didn't get it done.

Have you prepared the liquidated damages?

If not, hurry up and get it while there's still time."

"Liquidated damages?

Hansen Wang didn't mention this to me."

Afra was stunned, obviously she didn't know about it.

"Not mentioned doesn't mean there is no"

The white man showed a hint of amusement: "The market is not good recently, and it's hard for the boss to do business.

So the rules have been changed.

No matter how big the commission is, if it fails, you have to pay liquidated damages.

Do you know why?"

Afra was about to answer,Suddenly, a few cries of "ouch" came from outside the store, and then there was an inexplicable noise downstairs.

The white man didn't care too much,

and continued to sneer: "It's because of people like you.

You obviously don't have much ability,

but you rely on the boss to talk to you and come to grab work every day.

You don't pay for the mess, and you continue to take orders with a shameless face.

You didn't lose anything, how are you going to explain to the customer?"

"But, but..."

Faced with the aggressive questioning,

Afra, who came to her senses, hesitated.

"But what? Maintaining customer relationships doesn't cost money?

Do you think orders fall from the sky?"

The white man looked disdainful and became rude:

"Don't take the job if you don't have the ability. If you take it, you have to take responsibility.

Don't you understand this simple truth?

The boss took care of it before, but now it's just you.

Go, go, collect the liquidated damages first.

Otherwise, you will definitely make the boss angry when you go in later."

Afra's face turned ugly.

She knew that she would have to pay if she messed up the commission, but that was the rule for big orders.

Besides, the remuneration given by Hansen Wang was far lower than the market price.

Now he suddenly has to bear the liquidated damages. Isn't this obviously bullying?

Forget it, there are so many middlemen.

At worst, she can go somewhere else.

Afra didn't want to get entangled with the other party any more, so she pouted and pretended to leave.

"Wait, what did he just say?"

Just then, a figure blocked the way.

A strong hand was placed on Afra's shoulder, stopping her from leaving.

"Why did you come up?"

The latter saw the appearance of the person coming and said in surprise: "Didn't I tell you to wait.

Wait, why do you have a milkshake in your hand?

I remember you didn't bring any money."

"Oh, this."

Qin Nuo shook the green tea milkshake in his hand and said casually:

"Just now, a few brothers downstairs said they wanted to treat me to a drink.

Then I followed them out for a while.

Speaking of which,

The people in this place are really interesting.

I obviously didn't do anything,

They consciously put their hands against the wall and stood in a row,

It's just like a passive skill."

Qin Nuo laughed after he finished speaking,

as if he recalled a familiar scene.

So you made all those noises just now...

Afra probably understood where the milkshake in Qin Nuo's hand came from.

The white strong man heard the conversation between the two and vaguely felt that something was wrong.

The fat butt left the stool and leaned on the handrail to look down, only to find that the guys who were in charge of watching the place on the first floor were not there at this time.
