You’ve arrived, so we must arrange everything to the highest standard!
Is this money reimbursed by Ye Ge as well? Pour another drink for A Heng, Shi Tian suggested tentatively.
This money was originally supposed to come from me. Now that you’re here, it’s only right for me to host you. However, Ye Ge insisted that I let them cover the expenses for you, so this money is also from Ye Ge.
Don’t worry, my share won’t be less. I’ll arrange everything to the highest standard; I’ll pay for it myself! Without needing Shi Tian’s signal, A Heng directly took his glass and went to clink it with Shi Tian.
Since this money is from Shi Ye, there’s no problem then.
Heng Ge, this highest standard isn’t cheap! I just saw in the supermarket that a decent bottle of Blue Side costs nearly three thousand. If we get it from a hotel, won’t they charge five thousand? If the four of us order a few high-end dishes, won’t the total come to nearly ten thousand?
We haven’t eaten yet, but I must acknowledge Ye Ge’s intentions! Therefore, we can’t return this money to Ye Ge!
I don’t have a single penny on me here. Given our brotherhood, do you think Ye Ge would mind if you leave this money with me? Otherwise, I won’t even have breakfast tomorrow!
After calculating a bit, if I could get ten thousand from A Heng and save some money, I could definitely make it through a month or two.
Shi Tian spoke up while A Heng squinted at him with a smirk. He knew exactly what Shi Tian was up to.
This isn’t right! You didn’t go eat, but I paid for the groceries earlier! The saved money went towards buying seasonings and ingredients; shouldn’t we report this to Ye Ge?
Picking up the bottle again, he poured another drink for A Heng. This guy still seemed sober!
Heng Ge, we Chinese have a rule: you can’t show up empty-handed. You’ve been in Africa for a few years, but we still need to follow our own etiquette, right? Even when visiting relatives, one should bring some meat and a bottle of wine; aren’t these seasonings and ingredients your gifts for coming over?
You’re being too polite by buying so many things. Next time you come over, don’t bring anything! If you don’t bring more friends along next time, I’ll let all of you taste the flavors of home!
One A Heng can barely make ends meet; if he wants to live comfortably, he needs to bring more friends over. The more support he has, the easier life will be!
What you said makes sense! I can’t argue against that. With a bitter smile, A Heng took out some cash. After all, this money came from Shi Ye; building a relationship with Shi Tian means he could often enjoy free meals in the future—why not?
After paying up, A Heng pushed the cash onto the table and quickly called Simba and the others to help him upstairs; there was no way he could go back now.
With thirty thousand shillings in hand when he left and returning with a bunch of ingredients and seasonings—not to mention an additional thirty thousand shillings in cash—if he keeps this up for another couple of times, he’d have enough money to go see lions.
Helping Simba and Mu Sa clean up the battlefield, Shi Tian inquired about the situation here. Last time Shi Ye and his group came over, they mainly stayed in Benin and hadn’t visited this area much.
Simba had been with Shi Ye a bit longer—around half a year—but Mu Sa had only been here for just over a month. Neither had left Dashi; they were mainly here to look at houses.
The problem was that the houses they were looking at weren’t even in this building. According to them, this building was just rented by A Heng; he had signed the lease just two days ago. It seems they had just helped him find a place before sending him over here!
