Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 627 Wangfujing

   After staying in the study for a while, Yang Chen soon lost interest.

   New three years, old three years, sewing and mending for another three years.

  This ancient book is the same as clothes. It is 300 years old, 300 years old, stitched and mended, and then 300 years old. Those that are more than 1,000 years old are basically buried in the soil.

   Yang Chen has no interest in collecting books.

   In the words of the later Ma Boss, the books in the study are all for others to see.

   Yang Chen agrees very much with this, even for businessmen of this era, most people can read the daily newspapers.

  What needs to be supplemented by reading is always the subordinates, not the boss. If the boss can do everything and intervene in everything, what should the employees do?

  Hypocritical human beings like to disguise themselves with masks. The more successful people are, the more they show their best side, like a child who needs praise.

   Didn't stay in the study too much, and didn't say a word to Old Master Song, Yang Chen and Song Yang turned around and left the study.

  I believe that Father Song will tell Father Song about his intentions one by one, and he only needs to wait for the result.

   "Hey, what is this?" Returning to the living room, Yang Chen couldn't help but let out a small hum.

  He Chaoqiong squeezed a dumpling, put it in the palm of his hand, and sent it to Yang Chen, "Dumpling, can't you see it?"

  Yang Chen rolled his eyes, "Of course I know it's a dumpling, I mean, why is it red?"

  To be honest, it was the first time he had seen red dumplings. Don’t they add some coloring? Are there any colorings these days? Is it red ink?

   "Guess what?" He Chaoqiong said with a smile.

   Yang Chen said with a look of embarrassment: "How much red ink did you add?"

   "Red ink?" He Chaoqiong's eyes widened, "Can this food be added with red ink? ’

   "Isn't it red ink?" Seeing He Chaoqiong's stunned expression, Yang Chen's face finally looked a lot better. If it wasn't for ink, it didn't matter.

   Decades later, as long as anything that can be put in the mouth is brighter, the more pigments are added in it, the Chinese people's iron stomach is not a joke, but is accumulated over time.

   It’s fine to drink gutter oil every day, not to mention a few drops of pigment, so you should exercise in advance.

   In order to prevent Yang Chen from continuing to speculate, He Chaoqiong had no choice but to laugh and cry: "It's tomato juice, Aunt Song added tomato flavor when she was mixing noodles."

   "cough cough" Hearing the words 'tomato smell', Yang Chen was always embarrassed, thinking about it really, tomato smell is not red.

  The reason why he didn't think about it in this regard was mainly because in his memory, as long as there were pure green and pollution-free things, nine out of ten were fooling people.

  Various additives, preservatives, and carcinogens are used openly by unscrupulous merchants, and everyone is like a guinea pig.

   Those black-hearted bosses who don't eat their own products will still eat other people's products in the end, and no one can get rid of the reincarnation of heaven.

   Taking a closer look, seeing that the fillings in both pots are vegetarian, Yang Chen, who has always been fond of meat, raised his eyebrows, and asked curiously, "Why are the fillings in both pots vegetarian?"

   This time, without waiting for He Chaoqiong to speak, Song Xue on the side continued, "Because it's vegetarian dumplings, the northern Chinese New Year basically eats vegetarian dumplings, why? Do you want to eat meat?"

  Yang Chen proudly said: "Well, as a carnivore, I am always fond of meat."

   The corner of Song Xue's mouth twitched, and she said lightly, "Dumplings are only vegetarian. If you want to eat meat, I will give you more than a dozen big white steamed buns. Even if you are full, you will be very hungry."

"Uh..." Yang Chen was choked for a while, thinking of the big white steamed buns from the north that Song Xue said, it was tasteless and tasteless, with half a bottle of water, two or three steamed buns can really last a day, so he laughed dryly: "Ha, then I Let’s eat vegetarian dumplings, unfortunately, they are not stuffed with chives.”

  He Chaoqiong heard the words, her pretty face was slightly red, she naturally knew what happened to the dumplings filled with leeks.

   It's just that Song Xue and Song Yang, who had never heard of it, were confused, they only thought that Yang Chen was too picky, what stuffing should be added to eat dumplings.

  …

   Noon the next day

Wangfujing Street

  The streets that are already lively on weekdays seem to welcome the New Year in advance.

   After yesterday afternoon, evening, and noon today, almost half of the people in the capital already knew about the news of Carrefour’s opening.

  Wangfujing Street is located in the DC area. It got its name from the Ming Dynasty and has been the most famous commercial pedestrian street in Beijing until later generations. It has a long history of hundreds of years and has always enjoyed the reputation of "Golden Street" in Beijing.

Since the Xuantong period, Wangfujing has become more and more prosperous. There are many vendors and shops on both sides of the street. Today, many state-owned enterprises are concentrated here, department stores, hardware stores, various restaurants and snack bars, and many time-honored brands are located here. .

  The reason why Carrefour built the square here is not only because of the lively people in this street, but also because of the tolerance here.

  Wangfujing not only has many time-honored Chinese brands, but also many world-renowned multinational companies and well-known brands.

  Those hundred-year-old shops have seen vicissitudes as the years change, and their strong historical heritage makes them a must-visit place for Chinese and foreign tourists.

  Fashionable commercial buildings, large squares, full of modern atmosphere, keep it up to date with the times, so that this ancient street with hundreds of years of history has not disappeared.

   combines Chinese traditional and modern business culture together, which is why Wangfujing is still unique in the capital after decades.

   In recent years, with the reform and opening up, Wangfujing has developed rapidly, especially during the Chinese New Year, when people buy New Year's goods, there are more people.

   No matter where it is, inland or overseas, as long as there are Chinese people, no matter what you do, if you want to attract attention and be lively, you must have a traditional performance like the lion dance.

  Especially the opening of a new store, no matter the size of the store, without this performance ceremony, it will make people feel that there is something wrong.

  Everyone loves to join in the fun, especially our Chinese, the effect of following the trend cannot be learned from other places.

  Whether good or bad, as long as there are more people, everyone will be able to join in.

   In order to make Carrefour an instant hit, Wu Jiangtao didn't mean to give Yang Chen any money left. From south to north on Wangfujing Street, dozens of lion dance teams performed in sections, so that all the people who joined in the fun had a lively look.

   Every lion dance team along the way was surrounded by banners, beauties in red, held up plaques, and blocked the entire Wangfujing Street for more than half an hour.

   One south and one north, the lion dance team converges into two long dragons, attracting people along the way to the square.

   is so powerful that people who don’t know it will think that it’s New Year’s Day today.
