Chapter 266
"I'm glad you're not hurt. I gave you my phone number a long time ago. Why haven't you called me yet?"
Teng Ze and Meng Haisheng haven't had much contact. Meng Haisheng really doubts whether Teng Ze is lazy and doesn't help him investigate Meng Changyue.
"All the phones here are public phones. You didn't see that when someone went to make a call, the old man and woman who were watching the phone next to them wanted to put their ears close to them."
"No, they not only want to listen to everything I say, but also want to see where I call from."
Teng Ze was also helpless when it came to this.
He vaguely knew that the things they talked about should be confidential, so before finding a suitable public phone, he would rather write a letter to Meng Haisheng.
"It's really inconvenient to call like this."
"Teng Ze, tell me in detail about Meng Changyue. What else have you found out? How did he become rich after coming to Beijing from a poor boy?"
"I really put a lot of thought into investigating Meng Changyue. I almost sold my body."
It turned out that in order to investigate Meng Changyue's college life, Teng Ze actually tried every means to get to know Meng Changyue's classmate's sister.
Teng Ze found out a lot of things through various indirect inquiries.
"Meng Changyue was very poor when he first went to college. His clothes were washed white."
"Later, I heard that he met a female student who was one year older than him. The female student lent him some money and let him open a small restaurant on Dongfu Street."
"He gradually made money from this small restaurant, but later I heard that the female student had an improper relationship with other male classmates, and the two broke up."
"Now his small restaurant has become a restaurant, and it is quite famous in the Dongfu Street area."
"Recently, I heard from Miao Jun that Meng Changyue is going to open a herbal medicine store. He is a strange person. He is obviously a researcher, so why is he opening a herbal medicine store."
"He should graduate from graduate school this year."
"Yes, but he followed a great teacher and heard that he will continue to study for a doctorate. Meng Changyue is still very good at studying."
Meng Haisheng listened to Teng Ze's detailed account of Meng Changyue's life in Beijing. He didn't know how many times he rolled his eyes in his heart.
It turns out that Meng Changyue has everything he has now, except for studying, all the other things were cheated along the way.
Meng Changyue's family is quite poor. Since their parents passed away, Meng Changyue's family has no savings.
At the beginning, he was able to go to high school for three years and get into college. In addition to the help of Meng Changxi, his girlfriend Ding Meiying also contributed a lot of money.
Unfortunately, Meng Haisheng asked for a long time, but he couldn't find out where Ding Meiying went.
Ding Meiying's family moved away less than a year after Meng Changyue went to college, and no one knew where they moved to.
"Tengze, are you free now? Come with me to see the hotel opened by Meng Changyue."
"Okay, I'll take you to see it. It's not far from here. It's only four stops away by bus.
For the time being, the hotel should be Meng Changyue's main source of income. If it goes bankrupt, it will be a disaster for Meng Changyue.
When the two of them went out together, they didn't talk about Meng Changyue, but talked about taking the college entrance examination this year.
"So many messy things happened in my family before the New Year. I put my studies aside for a while. Now I pick it up again. Although it's a bit difficult, it's still possible to take the college entrance examination in Beijing. "
Meng Haisheng nodded slightly. Teng Ze's household registration is here. Looking at the whole city, there are not many people taking the college entrance examination this year.
Unlike him and Lin Mucheng, both of whom are registered in the provinces with a large number of college entrance examination candidates, if they want to take the exam in Beijing, it would be like a huge army.
"There is another thing. After lunch, you take me around Beijing. I want to buy a courtyard house in Beijing, preferably one that can install a personal phone."
"Ah, installing a personal phone costs several thousand."
Teng Ze soon found that his focus was a bit off.
"No, buying a slightly better courtyard house in Beijing costs tens of thousands, or even more expensive. I heard that the city counted some time ago, and now there are only 800 courtyard houses in good condition."
"The others are similar to the one I live in now. Seven or eight households in a small courtyard are rare. Some courtyard houses can accommodate more than ten households. I heard that the small utility room where coal was stored before was later occupied by people. "
Meng Haisheng had never heard of this news before. He came to Beijing a little later, and at that time, Siheyuan had already cost hundreds of thousands of yuan per unit, and it was hard to find one.
Since the early 1980s, Siheyuan in Beijing has become a hot commodity. There are only 800 units in good condition in the whole city. It is hard to say how many of them are in private hands and want to sell.
"If I want to buy a SiheyuanHow to buy a courtyard? Are there any private agents in Beijing? "
"Yes, go to Beijing later and look for courtyards in that area. I will help you find someone to ask."
"Okay, I will trouble you again when the time comes."
The two took the bus for more than half an hour before arriving at Dongfu Hutong.
This place is much more prosperous than Feicui Hutong. A new food street has been built, and both sides of the street are full of beautiful two-story buildings.
Meng Changyue's restaurant rented one of the two-story storefronts to open a restaurant.
Meng Haisheng looked up and saw the plaque on the restaurant "Baiwei Restaurant"
"It's neither Chinese nor Western. This name is really weird."
Meng Haisheng strode in with Teng Ze.
"Comrade, how many people?"
"Two."
"The table for two is temporarily full. Please wait a moment."
"Okay, bring me the menu. ”
It was near noon, and the restaurant was doing pretty well. All the tables in the hall were full.
From time to time, waiters would carry dishes upstairs. Meng Haisheng estimated that there should be quite a few people in the private rooms upstairs.
When the menu was opened, the prices of the dishes were not cheap. Even a vegetable dish cost 1.5 yuan, and meat dishes and seafood cost 4 yuan.
Meng Haisheng took a quick look and saw that the Baiwei Hotel also sold roast duck, and the processed one cost 10 yuan.
Even Meng Haisheng was shocked by the price.
At the moment, the processed Beijing roast duck only cost 16 yuan. How could he not rob Meng Changyue, a little-known restaurant, for 10 yuan?
But with such an expensive price, why were there so many people in Meng Changyue's restaurant?
Just when Meng Haisheng was puzzled, Teng Ze pulled Meng Haisheng's arm, took the menu from Meng Haisheng's hand, put it directly on the table, and pulled him out.
"What's wrong? Is the food not delicious? "
Meng Haisheng looked at Teng Ze in surprise.
"It's not that it doesn't taste good, it's just that it's too expensive. Those who can eat here have been approved by the unit."
When Teng Ze said this, Meng Haisheng instantly understood what was going on.
He used to be in business and naturally knew that the unit's approval was generally for entertaining customers, but some villains would take more and eat more when entertaining customers.
And Meng Changyue's restaurant sells such expensive dishes, and nine out of ten will give kickbacks to certain people.
Thinking of this, Meng Haisheng curled his lips. He was afraid that he couldn't find Meng Changyue's fault. It was difficult for him to start with the right things. Now that he had grabbed Meng Changyue's pigtail, he would definitely pull it hard and make him feel painful.
