Chapter: 3934
Thinking about it, Liu Manqiong's good memories should be when she was a child, her mother brought her here every day, trying her best to coax her to eat, but later the person who loved her the most was gone, so she could only come here to find her shadow.
At this time, a street vendor wearing an apron who was frying Niuhe saw Liu Manqiong approaching, and quickly greeted him with a smile: "Miss Manqiong, you are here!"
Liu Manqiong came back to her senses, and quickly said with a smile, "Uncle Nan, why didn't I see you opening a file two days ago."
The vendor grinned from ear to ear, and said, "The day before yesterday my daughter-in-law was born, she is a fat boy, and she weighs eight pounds!"
"Wow!" Liu Manqiong said in surprise: "It's really great! Next time I come, I must give the little guy a big red envelope!"
The vendor hurriedly said: "No need for Miss Manqiong, we have been favored by you every year, how can we let you spend money again."
Liu Manqiong smiled and said, "Uncle Nan, why don't I tell Manager Wan that I will waive your rent for the second half of the year and treat it as a red envelope for the little guy."
The vendor said fearfully, "How can this work? Miss Manqiong, you haven't raised the rent for ten years, and you have taken good care of us. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to support our family here..."
Liu Manqiong said with a smile: "Uncle Nan, don't be polite to me, I will tell Manager Wan later."
After finishing speaking, she pointed to Ye Chen and said to the vendor, "Uncle Nan, I'll take my friends to eat something inside, so don't bother me for now."
The vendor nodded gratefully, then looked at Ye Chen, and asked with a smile on his face: "Miss Manqiong, are you finally dating?"
"No..." Liu Manqiong shook her head quickly: "Ordinary friends."
The vendor looked at Marven Ye deeply, and said seriously: "I have been here for more than 20 years, and you are the first boy brought by Miss Manqiong."
Liu Manqiong said in a panic: "Uncle Nan, he is really an ordinary friend of mine, so please stop setting off smoke bombs here."
After finishing speaking, he greeted Ye Chen quickly: "Mr. Ye, let's go."
Ye Chen and the vendor nodded, and then they walked to the depths of the snack street with Liu Manqiong.
After distanced from Uncle Nan's booth, Ye Chen asked her curiously: "Miss Manqiong, I heard what Uncle Nan said just now, you seem to be the landlord here?"
Liu Manqiong blinked, gestured with her slender hands along the direction of the snack street, and said with a smug smile, "This whole street is mine!"
"Hey!" Ye Chen couldn't help admiring: "The boss is so generous!"
Liu Manqiong said with a smile: "If you want to keep some people and things, you always have to pay some price."
Just after finishing speaking, several street vendors saw Liu Manqiong and said respectfully: "Ms. Manqiong!", "Miss Manqiong, you are here!", "What would Miss Manqiong want to eat tonight?"
Liu Manqiong greeted them one by one, and could even call everyone by name.
After the entertainment, she said to Ye Chen: "The economy of Hong Kong Island has been growing rapidly in the past few years. This kind of place has long been bought by people and is ready to be redeveloped. At that time, the owner of this street wanted to drive away these vendors. After their lease expired, the rent was increased several times overnight. Many vendors couldn�t pay the rent, so they withdrew their stalls one after another. So I begged my dad to buy this place and give it to me no matter what. , as long as he is willing to buy this place and give it to me, I will allow him to marry that woman."
As he said that, Liu Manqiong spread his hands and said with a smile: "So I got my wish and became the owner of this street. All the stalls on this street and the shops on both sides are mine! How is it, is it great?"
"Excellent." Ye Chen asked with a smile: "So after you bought this street, you invited these vendors back, right?"
"Yes." Liu Manqiong nodded and said: "I invited each of them here, and promised them that as long as they are willing to open here, I will never raise the rent. Not only that, they operate here, all the water, electricity, cleaning and The cost of maintenance is all paid by me, the price of goods has risen sharply these years, the rent they pay every year is actually not enough for the maintenance cost here, and my dad's company has to subsidize part of it every year."
Ye Chen said with a smile: "It seems that your father is still good to you."
Liu Manqiong nodded: "He is very kind to me, because for so many years, he has always wanted my forgiveness."
As she said that, Liu Manqiong's expression gradually turned cold, and she said seriously: "But when my mother passed away, it was really painful. I can vividly remember every scene from her illness to her death, so I will never forgive him in this life. "
Seeing that Liu Manqiong's eyes were flushed, it seemed that some painful memories had been brought back, so Ye Chen asked: "By the way, Miss Manqiong, Uncle Nan said that you have never brought boys here, why is it the first time in your house today?" The next time we meet, are you going to take me here for dinner?" JrNovels.com
