Chapter 520 Don't Go Too Much
Zhang Tong didn't come to Hive City for anything else, but mainly for his own future.
Because Wang Qian made a deal with him at Shuangqing, how could he make up the down payment for buying a house in Huaihai. The Jiang family didn't sell their daughter, and they didn't expect Zhang Tong to offer much as a gift. But the necessary ceremony is to have.
This is not a question of more money and less money, but that Zhang Tong is afraid that Jiang Hua's words are too easy to get, and he will not cherish them after marriage.
This consideration is not unreasonable. After all, there are quite a lot of cheap men these days, and women who can accompany them to endure hardships don't cherish them. Then I spent a lot of money to get a queen dowager back, but I couldn't get rid of it even if I wanted to.
Because the money has been spent a lot, I feel a little bit reluctant to get rid of it. Just like buying stocks, after buying at a high price, you are always reluctant to cut the meat and put it on the market.
There are not a few people who turn marriage into a business. In this kind of marriage, there is no emotion at all, it is completely a game of interests, and everyone is discussing who gets more and who gets less.
Wang Qian doesn't care how much dowry Jiang Hua will accompany after she gets married, after all, the family's property will belong to Jiang Hua in the future. Not to mention how rich and powerful they are, but according to the statistics of the Central Bank, the wealth of Jiang Hua's family can barely enter the only 5% of the wealthy class in China.
Zhang Tong had to show his sincerity, otherwise Wang Qian wouldn't let him go with Jiang Hua so easily.
Zhang Tong had to find a way to get a house, and the easiest way was to come to the hive city.
Because Sun Hua had revealed to him about the recruiting of new citizens in the hive city before, he came here directly by car.
Now because the first phase of the hive city has been opened, it is no longer completely closed. Only the construction part is still closed, but the main urban area of the first phase has been opened.
However, the honeycomb city's policy of recruiting new citizens is the same as many policies in China, that is, the publicity is not good. It's like Zhang Tong came here looking for a long time, but he didn't know who to ask for a house.
"This is really troublesome. I need to find that department to share the house. The house is too small, and Jiang Hua and I need to live in one room when we get married. In the future, we will have one room if we have children. If Jiang Hua's work disturbs the children, it won't work, so I still have to You need to prepare a separate study room. If your father-in-law and mother-in-law come to Huaihai to play, you also need to prepare a place to live. This needs at least four bedrooms and one living room." Zhang Tong walked on the street rambling.
"Well, although there are few people in this city, the environment and municipal construction look very good. It feels several grades higher than Huaihai. The roads are wide and there are no telephone poles. I see that the hospitals and municipalities that have been built The school is also very impressive. Apart from the absence of people, I feel that there are no shortcomings here. Oh, by the way, the bus has not started running yet, so I don’t know how the public transportation is.”
"I want a house with four bedrooms and one living room, and I have to get a shop facing the street. But I don't have any money." Zhang Tong is planning to eat the country and use the country. But what about the empty-handed white wolf? This is also a science. The problem is that he hasn't found out where the wolf's lair is yet, so he can't get caught if he wants to.
Zhang Tong was in distress. He was still looking for where the wolf was, but the wolf came to his door.
"Zhang Tong." Huang Gang stood at the intersection and waved to Zhang Tong.
"Oh, Director Huang. I didn't expect to meet you here." Zhang Tong stepped forward and shook hands with Huang Gang cordially. Jiang Hua and Huang Gang have some conflicts, but Zhang Tong and Huang Gang have no conflicts.
As the direct leader of his wife, Zhang Tong felt that he still wanted to have a relationship with Huang Gang.
And Huang Gang considered that Jiang Hua would be his most important assistant in the future, and he also needed to have a relationship with Zhang Tong. Because the relationship between him and Jiang Hua is already very stiff, and someone needs to lubricate it.
That's right, Zhang Tong was regarded by Huang Gang as a lubricant between him and Jiang Hua.
"Zhang Tong, why are you here?" Huang Gang greeted.
"Hi, it's nothing. Didn't I hear about it recently? It's said that the hive city is going to start. It's said that it's going to expand and absorb the group of returnees and people who have awakened abilities to become citizens or something. I'm not a typical person in the district, I Just thinking about this kind of thing, I will respond to the call of the party and the country, and rush forward as soon as possible." Zhang Tong smiled, just like Zhu Shimao in "The Wrangler" categorically rejected the huge foreign property and chose to live in the motherland. Frontier horse herding is the same as making great contributions and sacrifices to the motherland's animal husbandry and border security.
"Hehe, good. New China needs you as a representative of a vigorous returnee." Huang Gang gave a thumbs up, not sure if he really believed what Zhang Tong said.
"It's almost noon, how about having a meal together?"
Zhang Tong looked around for a while: "I walked around here, and there is not even a canteen officially opened, where can I eat?"
"The canteen of the unit. In this special period, the canteen of our unit is temporarily open to the public. It will be closed after a month when it starts to get on the right track. How about it? How about taking this opportunity to try the craftsmanship of our canteen?"
"Okay. Director Huang, how can you not show your face when you ask me?"
The two old foxes were laughing at each other, chatting happily like old friends.
The food in the office canteen may not be delicious, but generally the ingredients are sufficient. Generally, if fast-food restaurants outside sell chili fried pork, the ratio of meat to chili is one to three to one to four. It is normal to fry two or three taels of meat with a catty of peppers, and some unscrupulous merchants may not even have two or three taels of meat.
And the amount of chili fried meat in the canteen is almost one to one, a catty of chili fried with a catty of meat. The chili fried meat in the small plate is full, and the meat is almost overflowing.
There are also braised pork feet in a small casserole. In restaurants outside, potatoes and radishes are placed on the bottom, and a limited number of pig's feet are placed on the surface, which looks like a small casserole with many pig's feet. But in fact, the pig's trotters are only three or four pieces on the surface, and the bottom is full of radishes and potatoes.
And the braised pork knuckles in this office canteen are not slippery, and the pig knuckles in a small casserole are all pig knuckles, and only a few small radishes can be found occasionally.
There is also steamed meat with rice noodles in the same way, with a layer of Chinese cabbage on the bottom, and some steamed pork with rice noodles on top. Moreover, in order to reduce costs, unscrupulous merchants put not serious pork belly, and they will also put a lot of leftover fat in addition to pork belly to reduce costs.
The advantage of the office canteen is that these small dishes are made of real ingredients, and the taste may not be good, but it is basically no problem to eat. Of course, the office cafeteria also has a disadvantage, that is, the cooking is too greasy. I don't know if it's because the public's oil doesn't cost money, and there can be half a plate of oil under a plate of fried vegetables. The taste is not unpalatable, but it is very greasy after a few bites.
"I'm getting old, I can't eat this kind of big fish and meat. And the vegetables are a little greasy." Huang Gang doesn't particularly like to eat this kind of dishes that are particularly heavy in oil. He prefers to eat all kinds of pasta with garlic.
But he can't eat it at noon, otherwise his mouthful of garlic will damage his image as a great leader when he talks in the afternoon.
Zhang Tong, apart from green vegetables, other braised pork feet, steamed rice noodles and meat are all good. After all, this kind of dish itself is a big meat, and it is normal to be a little greasy. As long as you have a bottle of Fat Boy Happy Hydrolysis, you will be fine.
"Oh, the noodles you make are still delicious. The food cooked in the cafeteria here is far worse than your craftsmanship. It would be great if you could open a shop here." Huang Gang wiped his mouth with a paper towel.
"Hehe." Zhang Tong laughed twice: "I would like to. But I don't think any stores in this hive city are open for sale."
"Oh? Speaking of which, Boss Zhang, are you here today to find a store?"
"Hey, I'm not just looking for a storefront. I'm also looking for a house."
"Are you planning to move here? That's right, I heard that you are in a relationship with Jiang Hua. Jiang Hua will work here in the future, and it will be too inconvenient if you are still in Huaihai City. A girl as good as Jiang Hua will be caught as soon as she lets go." I can't stop."
"What you said is true, what you said is true. However, I searched around the Hive City and couldn't find anyone in charge of the house. I heard that there is no discount for the house now?"
Huang Gang smiled meaningfully: "You are quite well informed. Are you really planning to move in?"
"Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn't come here."
Hearing this, Huang Gang rolled his eyes, well, this is an opportunity. It’s good to sell Zhang Tong one, let him help to talk about me in Jianghua in the future, and save the two of us from confronting each other every day.
Thinking of this, Huang Gang said: "Boss Zhang, tell me about your request. I happen to know the person in charge of this area. If it's not too much, I think it should pass."
This is what Zhang Tong was waiting for!
