"Hey, new beauty! I want a spoon!"
"Give me a set of knives and forks. These chopsticks are too awkward to use.”
"I want a tissue, thank you!"
Seeing that Xia Ziyan was a beauty, many customers tried to find excuses to strike up a conversation with her. Xia Ziyan answered with a smile," Wait a moment, I'm coming!"”
"Red Star, this pretty girl looks quite similar to Xiaojing. Is she your relative?”An old man in clean clothes asked with a smile.
Mao Hongxing took a break from his busy schedule and replied," You really have a good eye. That's Xiaojing's distant cousin. She just graduated from university and came to experience life with me!"”
"Hehe, your family's genes are pretty good. You're really lucky ~"
Amidst the noise, the family was busy until past eight o'clock. Only then did the number of customers decrease. Mao Hongxing could handle it alone. He asked Zhou Hai to get a bowl of spicy soup and a few youtiao to eat by himself.
"American restaurants are really profitable. A Moonlight Breakfast alone earns nearly ten thousand dollars!”
He roughly estimated that in just over an hour, he had sold more than 300 servings. The average consumption was about 1 USD, and the turnover was at least 300 USD!
Xia Ziyan and Xiaojing walked over with a bowl of Eight Treasures Porridge each. Hearing Zhou Hai's words, Xiaojing smiled and explained,"Usually, I'm too busy to handle it, and many customers will leave. Today, I broke the record.”
The two girls had been running around in the morning. They looked a little tired, but they were still smiling.
"Phew, I'm quite tired, but I'm very happy.”Perhaps it was because she was too busy and was eating hot porridge, Xia Ziyan's face was red as she stuck out her tongue at Zhou Hai.
"It's only because our old restaurant has authentic food that our business is so popular. The other breakfast shops don't even have half of it, and they have to pay a thousand yuan a month as protection fees!”
Mao Hongxing sent the last customer away. He picked up a bun and took a big bite. He sighed deeply. It was very difficult for Chinese people to do business in New York.”
"Pay protection fees?" Xia Ziyan asked in surprise,"What era are we in? How can someone do such illegal things?"”
"Puff!"
Zhou Hai almost spat out the spicy soup. He looked at the girl's innocent expression and teased," You're the daughter of a noble family in the capital. You live at the foot of the emperor. Naturally, you don't feel anything about this kind of thing."”
"In a country like the US, there is racial discrimination. White people have the highest status, while Asians and Blacks are lower races and are often blackmailed.”
"Ah Hai is right. You seem to have a lot of social experience. What did you do before coming to America?”Mao Hongxing agreed with Zhou Haifeng's words. Seeing that Zhou Haifeng was working very quickly today and his words were more tactful, he couldn't help but ask curiously.
"He has four books!" Xia Ziyan answered first. Unfortunately, her mouth was full of food and her words were unclear. Her silly look made people want to laugh.
"Ah?" The Mao family members were all dumbfounded.
"Eat your food!" Zhou Hai almost got stuck on the youtiao. He coughed and smiled." I drive a taxi. I'm an experienced driver!"”
"Hahaha, you two are so funny!”Mao Xiaojing covered her mouth and snickered.
"Hehe, we still have to stock up after breakfast. Ah Hai, you go with your Uncle Mao. Xiao Yan will stay in the shop and help us wash the dishes.”Aunt Mao said with a smile.
This was their family's life. It was simple, busy, fulfilling, and repeated day after day. It was also a portrait of most families in China.
It was very simple to purchase goods. There was a market not far away. The two of them drove a Ford pickup truck over. Uncle Mao picked all kinds of beef and sheep meat, pig offal, vegetables, fruits, seasonings, etc., and filled half the truck.
They were busy until past ten o'clock. The only work left was the secret braised pork and side dishes. The old couple operated by themselves. The restaurant only accepted takeout orders at noon and was not open in the store. Therefore, the three young people got off work.
"Shall we go shopping?" Xia Ziyan suggested. I've received an advance of 200 yuan. I want to buy some clothes!”
"Alright." Zhou Hai had not changed his clothes for a few days. Although he had taken a shower, he was sweating all morning. His clothes stuck to his body and he could not stand it.
Xiaojing acted as a guide and brought the two of them to another street. This place was full of stores selling shoes and clothing. There were all kinds of elements such as formal wear, casual wear, fashion, jeans, and so on. Moreover, it was more in line with the aesthetic standards of Chinese people.
Zhou Hai didn't really like shopping. He saw a Li Ning store and went in to buy two sets. A white sweater, a black jacket, blue jeans, black sneakers, and even socks and underwear.
"I've bought it. Where are you guys going? Why don't we just buy a few sets nearby?" Carrying a few bags, he began to urge the two beautiful girls.
The two beauties giggled and said," Don't be anxious. Just follow us. Help us get our things later. Haha!"”
A man should never ask a woman who is shopping a question: When will it end?
The three of them walked from the street to the end of the street, and then from the end of the street back to the street. It took them two hours to buy a set of clothes, which made Zhou Hai look resentful.
"What's with that look?" Xia Ziyan pouted.
Although the two girls were very beautiful and the people on the street looked at him with envy, Zhou Hai could not be arrogant at all. He just wanted to go back and study how to improve his strength.
"Alright! I'll buy a set of casual clothes too!"
Under Zhou Hai's resentful gaze, Xia Ziyan finally gave up. She stuck out her cute tongue and walked into the Li Ning store with Xiaojing's arm.
"It's getting late. Go back and get some things and rest for a while.”After buying the clothes, Zhou Hai looked at his watch. It was already past 12 o'clock. The three of them decided to go back to the shop for dinner.
Just as they turned into a narrow road from the clothing street, a dozen strong men suddenly rushed out from the roadside and surrounded the three of them!
"Ah!" The two girls had never seen such a scene before. She was so frightened that she screamed.
"You guys again!"
Zhou Hai suddenly felt that the world was too small, and Manhattan Island was even smaller. He actually ran into the few black guys from yesterday here!
