Chapter 23 Lin Songhan Can't See Through It
From the first time I saw Li Yu yesterday, Lin Songhan felt that this person was a bit unusual. Li Yu received training since childhood to make him behave like ordinary people in various occasions, making it difficult for people to see his true identity. However, Lin Songhan received another kind of training, which is to specifically identify all kinds of real ordinary and disguised ordinary.
Li Yu had breakfast at Songhan Restaurant. His performance at that time was too abnormal and there were too many doubts. Even his name was so special that it made people feel that there must be a deception. However, Lin Songhan knew that using abnormality to show normality is a higher level of disguise. Most people would think that it is impossible for a person with a ghost in his heart to reveal so many flaws. Then, on the other hand, a person with flaws is a person who does not need to doubt.
Too normal means abnormal, too abnormal is normal, this is the reality of the false and real in the camouflage technique. It is precisely because Li Yu exposed so many abnormalities that Lin Songhan was alert. Is this a kind of camouflage technique that is as clumsy as a pretense? If this is true, then who would Li Yu be?
Regarding Li Yu's death at the store to ask for food soup, Lin Songhan also classified him as "abnormal" and believed that Li Yu did this on purpose. Of course, he could not have imagined that Li Yu was indeed showing his true feelings this time - he was really overeating.
Although I couldn't guess the reason why Li Yu did this, Lin Songhan still took a few slices of fruit peels, brewed a pot of strong tea, and delivered it to Li Yu's table. Since there were no other customers in the store, Lin Songhan sat down opposite Li Yu after delivering the goods, pretending to chat casually, and asked, "Xiao Li, why are you eating so much with a friend?"
"Two friends I just met can't be considered a deal without a fight." Li Yu said. He was open-minded, so naturally there was no need to say anything lies. Of course, this increased Lin Songhan's doubts a little.
"By the way, Uncle Lin, I have something to ask you for advice." Li Yu thought about it and said to Lin Songhan.
Lin Songhan nodded and said, "Tell me, I see if I know."
Li Yu said: "I used to live in the mountains and I am not familiar with Yuhai at all. Today I made two friends and wanted to do some business together. What do you think we should do?"
"This..." Lin Songhan was suddenly stopped. After a long time, he said with a wry smile: "Xiao Li, your question is too broad. If you want to do business, you have to talk about what direction you have, what abilities you and your friends have, what resources you have, and how much capital you have, and I don't know all these conditions, how can I give you an idea?"
"Oh, Uncle Lin is right." Li Yu also found that he was too stupid to ask. He smiled and said, "My friend and I don't have much ability, we just have the strength. As for the capital, we have more than 100,000 yuan. If it is not enough, it will not be difficult for me to raise some more. There are still resources...what is resources?"
Lin Songhan said: "Resources are all kinds of relationships. For example, if you want to trade, can you find a source of goods or customers, do you have some government relationships, or any familiar relationships overseas. In short, what can be helpful to your business are resources."
What Lin Songhan said did not exceed Li Yu's knowledge. Even in the Ming Dynasty, business was about contacts. The connections in modern society were different from those in the past, but the principles were not different. Li Yu thought about it and shook his head and said, "I first arrived in Yuhai and didn't know a few people. My friends are all from the peasant family, so it doesn't seem to matter."
Lin Songhan said: "This is a bit troublesome. There are many things we can do now, but we must have some experience. For example, I started this small restaurant and took a lot of detours at the beginning because I didn't understand the rules, what kind of customer tastes, how much ingredients were prepared. I slowly explored for several years before I got on the right track. If you want to try it, it's good to open a small restaurant. As long as you are more diligent, there should be no problem supporting you a few people."
"Restaurant..." Li Yu nodded, then smiled and said, "Uncle Lin, are you not afraid that I will steal your business?"
Lin Songhan also smiled and said, "It's not necessarily all enemies. If you want to open a restaurant, you may not be on this street. What conflicts can you have with me? Besides, even if you are on the same street, sometimes it is not a competitive relationship, but can increase your popularity with each other. I still think the catering industry on this street is not developed enough. If the catering industry is more developed and there are more people coming, my small shop will benefit from it."
"Uncle Lin is right. I'll think about it. Maybe I'll really open a restaurant." Li Yu said.
As they were chatting, a sound of music started to sound. Li Yu looked around curiously, and looked around for a while, but didn't find that there was a source of the sound. When he turned around, he saw Lin Songhan looking at him in surprise, looking at him but stopped.
"What, Uncle Lin, haven't you heard any music?" Li Yu asked.
Lin Songhan pointed at Li Yu's trouser pocket with his finger and said, "Isn't your phone ringing?"
"Mobile phone?" Li Yu finally came back to the smell. It turned out that the source of the sound was on him. He had ever had something that would sound in his pocket when he had grown up so big. It was because of this that he clearly heard the sound was next to him, but he didn't think about it at all in his pocket.
He took out his cell phone from his pocket in a panic, and stroked the screen as he learned the day before. A voice rang out on the phone: "Hey, Li Yu, I thought you didn't take your cell phone out again."
"Oh, it's Senior Brother Ge." Li Yu heard that it was Ge Jianyu's voice and quickly responded.
Ge Jianyu had nothing to do, just called Li Yu to ask about Li Yu's situation. After yesterday's incident, he was afraid that Li Yu would make another monster. He heard that Li Yu had just gone out for a walk and had returned to the neighborhood. Ge Jianyu felt relieved and said, "Ying Yingying and I were talking about you just now. Yingying and her senior brother were very grateful for saving them, and said that we would invite you to a meal after two days of leaving the hospital."
"It's so hard to raise your hands, why bother with me?" Li Yu said politely.
After chatting for a few casual words, Ge Jianyu hung up the phone. Li Yu watched the call screen disappear on his phone, feeling a little unsatisfied.
"What, is there a good thing?" Lin Songhan asked with a smile.
"Oh, I just helped a friend a little bit yesterday and he said he wanted to treat me to dinner." Li Yu said, pointing to his cell phone and said, "I was just thinking just now that such a small thing can actually make me talk so far away from others. It's so convenient."
"You mean... you haven't used your phone?" Lin Songhan asked in confusion.
Li Yu said: "Yes, this is the first call I have ever received."
Lin Songhan stared at Li Yu blankly. After a long time, he realized his incompetence. He hurriedly covered up and said, "Oh, that's right, it's actually very convenient to call. Remember a phone call from my store. If you don't want to go out at any time, you can ask me to deliver takeout to you."
Li Yu's words subverted Lin Songhan's guess about him. It is too common sense to say that it was his first time answering the phone. If this is Li Yu's mysterious words, then he would have pretended to be too much. Li Yu would not understand the truth that too much is too much. It is impossible for him to pretend to be so at this level that it is impossible for people not to pay attention. If Li Yu is really a person with a special mission, he shouldn't use this method to attract other people's attention.
Could it be that he is really a young man who just came out of the mountains as he said? But judging by his conversation and manners, he is not isolated from the world. But if he pretends to be so abnormal, what reason does he pretend to be so abnormal?
Lin Songhan really couldn't understand it, but he still carefully concealed his suspicion, reported a phone number to Li Yu, and urged Li Yu to remember it on his phone.
Ge Jianyu had explained to Li Yu before, and Li Yu had mastered it well. He wrote down the phone number of Songhan Restaurant, and suddenly remembered the phone number that Han Hongqi wrote to him, so he took it out and placed it on the table, and then entered it into the phone in front of the numbers on the note. He didn't understand the pinyin, but fortunately, his phone now supports handwriting input, so he just had to use his fingers to scratch it.
Lin Songhan sat opposite Li Yu, glanced at the note in front of Li Yu inadvertently, and couldn't help but be stunned again. He looked up at Li Yu, then pretended to be nothing, and asked, "Xiao Li, are these friends of you?"
Li Yu said: "That's true, but they are all my elders."
"Didn't you say, don't you know a few people in Yuhai?" Lin Songhan asked again.
Li Yu said: "I have only met these people once. They met them in the park for boxing. They wanted to practice boxing with me, so they left me a phone number. I originally thought I would go to meet them this morning, but who would have thought that I would be delayed."
"Oh, that's it." Lin Songhan nodded again, but he couldn't calm down.
Han Hongqi, Huang Jiping... Li Yu didn't know what they were. How could Lin Songhan not know? These are all old leaders who retired from Yuhai City. They were once people who could shake Yuhai City with stomping their feet. How did Li Yu get their mobile phone number? Of course, as a resigned leader, the mobile phone number no longer needs to be kept confidential, but Li Yu was an unemployed vagrant who had just arrived in Yuhai for two days. Such a person sat in front of him and entered the mobile phone number of several old leaders. What was he showing off to himself? Or was he really heartless...
