The next morning.
Ma and Song Zihao were in charge of the shop location and the acquisition of the factory. They had done a good job yesterday, so Chen Jicheng was relieved. He planned to go to the public housing estate in Stone Kip Mei today to try his luck and see if he could find Ruan Mei.
As for Li Jie's mission, it was not difficult to complete it because even without Chen Jicheng's intervention, the doctors 'gang would not have ended up much better.
However, Chen Jicheng felt that this was an opportunity for him to enter the upper class of Xiangjiang City. Therefore, he was prepared to plan carefully.
The public housing estate in Stone Kip Mei was located in North Jiu Long. It had appeared because of the " government low-rent housing " plan implemented by the Hong Kong British government. Most of the people living here were poor. It was common for a family of three generations to squeeze into a small house of more than ten square meters.
Compared to the bustling Wan Chai and Castles Bay, the first impression that Chen Jicheng got when the taxi drove into Stone Kip Mei was that it was dirty, messy, and poor. There were gangsters dressed like hooligans everywhere. His eyes were filled with shacks that were built haphazardly, as well as the clothes drying poles on the balcony. Undergarments that had been washed until they were white could be seen everywhere.
This was the world of the lowest class in Xiangjiang City.
The taxi dropped Chen Jicheng off at the public housing estate building. After paying the fare, Chen Jicheng began to walk around until he saw an old lady who had just returned from buying groceries. He could not help but run over and ask,
"Granny, do you know a girl called Ruan Mei here?”
The old lady sized up Chen Jicheng, as if she was judging his quality.
Chen Jicheng was dressed in casual clothes. He was tall, handsome, and had clean skin. There were no messy tattoos. The old lady felt that such a handsome guy should not be a bad guy. She stopped and replied,
"Are you asking Ah Mei? Of course I know her. She's the prettiest girl here. Young man, who are you? Why are you looking for her?”
Chen Jicheng's eyes lit up. He didn't expect his luck to be so good. A random granny actually knew Ruan Mei.
"I'm her friend."
Chen Jicheng casually made up a lie, but he didn't expect to be seen through by the old lady at a glance. She exposed him with a look that said,"Young man, you can't fool me.""Ah Mei is very obedient. She folds paper flowers at home every day and makes clothes to sell for money. She basically doesn't go out of the house.”
"Tell me the truth, did you see that Ah Mei is pretty and want to hit on her?”
Chen Jicheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry. What was going on? He didn't expect this granny to be so cunning, but her brain was too big.
"No, I'm really her friend.”Chen Jicheng was stubborn.
The old lady snorted disdainfully." You're her friend, so go find her yourself.”
After saying that, the old lady turned around and was about to leave with the basket.
Five minutes later, Chen Jicheng managed to get Ruan Mei's address for a hundred yuan.
As expected, money was the most useful in Xiangjiang City.
According to the information given by the old lady, Chen Jicheng took the elevator to the eighth floor of the public housing estate building."This should be the place, right?"
He went up to knock on the door decisively. A moment later, a pleasant female voice came from inside.
"Who is it?"
"Do you sell handmade paper flowers here? Grandma Cai recommended me."
Before going upstairs, Chen Jicheng had already thought of an excuse. Grandma Cai was the old lady who had extorted 100 yuan from Chen Jicheng.
"Yes, wait!"
The sound of slippers came from inside the door. With a creak, the security door in front of Chen Jicheng was opened a small crack. From his angle, he could only see a big eye like black jade, as if it could speak.
"Hello,"
Chen Jicheng nodded in a friendly manner. The people inside the door seemed to think that Chen Jicheng was not a bad person, so they opened the door completely. Chen Jicheng could also see the beauty's full appearance.
What was that poem?
Clear water produces hibiscus, naturally without carving decoration?
Even Chen Jicheng, who was used to seeing the Four Great Sorcery in the 21st century, couldn't help but gasp when he saw such a beauty.
It was too beautiful!
When she was young, Goddess Hui Min was too good-looking.
"Hello,"
Ruan Mei, who rarely interacted with strangers and was being stared at by Chen Jicheng, blushed." Did Grandma Cai introduce you to me to buy paper flowers?"”
Chen Jicheng regained his senses and suppressed the shock in his heart. He nodded and said,"Yes."
Ruan Mei heaved a sigh of relief. Grandma Cai was also a resident of the estate. She was a warm and kind person. Since she was the client she had introduced, there should be no problem. However, Ruan Mei still did not invite Chen Jicheng into the house.
After all, he was a stranger and she lived alone, so Ruan Mei knew how to protect herself.
Otherwise, why would she only fold paper flowers and make clothes racks at home? She clearly knew that these jobs did not earn much money at all, but she also knew that she was beautiful. In the past, she had worked outside and had been harassed a lot, so she only worked at home.
"How should I address you?" Ruan Mei asked timidly.
"Chen."
"Hello, Chen Sheng. What kind of fireworks do you want? How much do you want?"
"I like red and purple. Just the normal ones will do. I want a hundred of each.”
Chen Jicheng thought for a moment and said. Ruan Mei nodded, as if calculating how much these things cost. After a while, she said,"Chen Sheng, I still have some stock here, but the quantity is not enough. Moreover, I ran out of red and purple origami yesterday. I need to go out and buy them later.”
"No problem."
Chen Jicheng agreed. He wasn't really here to buy paper flowers. He just wanted to get in touch with Ruan Mei. Otherwise, how could he complete the mission?
A stranger came up to you and said that he would bring you to earn money and fly? It would be a wonder if you would believe it. You would definitely think that this person was up to no good!
Chen Jicheng was not stupid and would not do such a stupid thing.
" Thank you." Ruan Mei didn't expect Chen Jicheng to be so easy to talk to, and she had a good impression of him.
"Chen Sheng, the paper flowers you want are 200 yuan in total. I want to collect half of the deposit first.”
Of course, a good impression was just a good impression, but the money was definitely not to be taken lightly. Otherwise, Ruan Mei would not be called a " little Jewels."
Chen Jicheng took out two hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and stuffed them into Ruan Mei's hands. Ruan Mei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. At this moment, Chen Jicheng smiled and said,"There's no need to go through so much trouble. I believe that a beautiful girl like you won't lie. See you tomorrow.”
Women were all hearing animals, especially when it came to sweet nothings. Ruan Mei was also a woman, so when she heard Chen Jicheng praise her beauty, her face naturally blushed. She looked at the 200 Hong Kong dollar bills in her hand and was very happy. The good impression she had previously had also deepened.
"See you tomorrow."
Ruan Mei waved her hand. She felt that Chen Jicheng was a good person…
