Chapter 1520: The Strong Laborers(1/2)

Unlike the inspection team that went back to the capital after a walk, Sun Wufu and the more than 20 people he brought were permanent troops. They were planning to set up camp in Japan, and at least they had to help Ning Weimin get the waste recycling company started.

Especially they have one, one of them is a farmer from rural Hebei, and even the capital is a world of flowers for them. Therefore, when they came to Tokyo, they had a deeper understanding of the prosperity of Japanese society.

For example, none of them had taken a plane before.

On September 26, 1988, from the time of boarding the JAL flight, the eyes of this group of men were not enough, and it was really fresh in everything.

A simple airplane meal and free drinks halfway through were enough to get excited.

Especially the exquisite makeup, gentle voice, uniforms, stockings, long legs, and thoughtful etiquette and meticulous service unique to the Japanese.

This made them all distracted, blushed and incredible, so unreliable that they couldn't even say a complete word.

It’s really before people came to Japan, they experienced the temptation of uniforms in advance.

Even Sun Wufu was the same, he was almost fascinated by the Japanese women.

From this perspective, Ning Weimin brought a flowery world like Japan to a flowery world that they didn't know the taste of women.

Isn’t this sincerely trying to test their willpower?

It's really a bit inadequate to say.

As for why they came so late, it was much later than the inspection team?

It’s really not their fault, I can only blame Ning Weimin for asking them to help buy too much hardwood furniture.

In addition to helping to search for furniture from the trust store, Sun Wufu and others had to help transport furniture to Yunyuan after buying it, and they also cleaned it up together. It was not until September 23 that they could barely finish everything.

As a result, after finishing work, not only did people get exhausted, but it seems that September 25th is Mid-Autumn Festival.

Ning Weimin never treats his subordinates too hard, so after learning about the specific situation here, he simply told Sun Wufu to allow them to rest for two days in the capital, rest well, and come back after the Mid-Autumn Festival.

But then again, although these brave laborers have never seen any world, they feel dizzy when they see beautiful women, but they are really unambiguous in their work.

They are all hard-working people, and they have long been accustomed to the hard work. They have no complaints no matter how they are used, and they will recover quickly.

I slept for two days in the capital, tiring my hair once, soaked in a bathhouse once, and then before leaving, I had a meal at a small restaurant, and they all became fierce again.

Moreover, they were all very honest. Without even asking about the treatment and wages here, they followed Sun Wufu honestly.

These people have very simple ideas.

In addition to their high expectations for flying abroad, the more important thing is that they all trust Sun Wufu.

You know, they are all in the same village, and they can live today with Sun Wufu, who brings them to the capital to make a living, eat enough, wear warm clothes, and make money.

They are all grateful for this, and they can't help but think that Japan is a well-known developed country.

Since Sun Wufu brought them to Japan to see the world, no matter how bad the conditions in Tokyo are, it will not be worse than those in Beijing.

Not to mention, their idea may be a bit simple, but it is really not wrong.

Although the industry they are engaged in is too cheap, it is impossible for those who do waste recycling to make a living in the city center of any city. The best place to stay is the edge of the city or the urban-rural fringe.

Like when they got off the plane, Ning Weimin got a bus and pulled them directly from the airport to Katsushika District, which ranks second to the last economy in Tokyo's 23rd District.

But then again, Tokyo's level of development is here after all, and it is the most developed city in contemporary Asia.

For example, it is like the Majuqiao area where a large number of laborers gathered in the capital thirty years later.

Compared with other areas of the capital in the same era, no matter how backward or how low the consumption is, it will definitely be more prosperous and advanced than Wangfujing in the 1980s.

So don’t think that Katsushika District is an area composed of a large number of elderly people and low-income families.

Walking on the streets of Katsushika, you can often see many elderly people walking leisurely, or low-income families working hard to live.

Not to mention other areas in Tokyo, Katsushika District is full of old and dilapidated houses, and the street sanitation is just acceptable, but it looks clean on the surface.

In fact, the messy wires are like a spider web, which leads to serious safety hazards.

Moreover, since most of the houses in Japan were made of wood, mice were easily breeding.

If you walk into the alley of Katsushika District, you will see those disgusting creatures hiding in the dark corners if you are not careful.

But after all, we have to admit that for Sun Wufu and others, these shortcomings are too ordinary, and there are also in the capital, which is nothing at all.

Moreover, Katsushikaku is still part of Tokyo after all, and its comprehensive urban landscape is still much better than other cities of this era.

At least there will be piles of garbage and various plastic bags flying in the wind like in the capital.

Especially for public bathrooms, their cleanliness and hygiene is not comparable to the black and smelly simple thatched cottages in the alleys they rented in the capital.

Therefore, in the eyes of Sun Wufu and others, Katsushika District in Tokyo is already a super developed city, with many cars and high buildings, advanced everywhere, and far ahead.

As for what is equipped with commercial facilities and living basics, this place is much more complete than that in Beijing.

There are all kinds of clinics, post offices, banks, shrines, parks, police stations, and shops, including izakayas, ramen restaurants, baiqinggo, Snaku, and bathhouses.

If it is also full of neon lights at night, various shops are playing music to attract customers, commercial advertisements in the light box can be seen everywhere, and even more alcoholics who urinate everywhere after drinking too much are more than elsewhere.

Who can say that such a prosperous and magnificent place is a slum?

It is particularly worth mentioning that Shibayashi Indra, located in Katsushika District, is famous in Japan as the location of the movie "The Story of Injiro" filmed by Matsutake. This is actually the hometown of the protagonist Injiro.

Then anyone who has watched this movie will know that the architecture of Katsushikaku is quite traditional and full of a strong Showa style.

Especially for Chinese people, this is actually a different exotic style.

In this case, there are also elderly people wearing kimonos everywhere, company employees with straight suits, young women with fashionable eyebrows and eyes, and students with uniform uniforms carrying leather schoolbags.

It can be imagined that all of this deepened Sun Wufu and his feelings about the prosperity of Japanese society.

Not to mention anything else, even the Japanese dress on the street is so decent. Even if Ning Weimin told Sun Wufu that this was a slum, they would never believe it, and would only think that Ning Weimin was joking.

In addition, it must be said that Ning Weimin also considered Sun Wufu and his life quite thoughtfully.

I know that they have just arrived here and have no language, so there will definitely be a lot of inconvenience in all aspects of daily life.

Therefore, Ning Weimin found a landlord who owns a whole apartment but is also a Chinese.

And for a total of 800,000 yen per month, he booked all fourteen rooms on the third floor and gave them to Sun Wufu and others as dormitories.

In addition to the absence of language communication problems, the landlord also opened a convenience store and a melon and vegetable store nearby.

In this way, it will be much more convenient for Sun Wufu and others to buy things on weekdays, and they can also use credit first even if they don’t bring money.

As for landlords bullying, discrimination, and cheating, they are all impossible phenomena.

It’s not that the landlord has a good character, but that the money in Ning Weimin’s pocket is too convincing.

You know, Ning Weimin is willing to pay such a high price to buy so many rooms for Sun Wufu and the others to build a dormitory. That is a big customer that any owner dreams of.

Moreover, with so many people living there, they are indispensable to taking care of the landlord's convenience store business on weekdays.

The landlord is not stupid. Even if he does not have any affection from his fellow countrymen, even for the sake of money, he will try his best to be considerate and tolerant to Sun Wufu and others who have just come here.

Even if he looks down on Sun Wufu and other mainland workers, he can't stand it if they take off their cloth shoes and reveal their socks, and he will only hide his contempt and disgust in his heart.

Instead, they will smile with a smile for "Fukuzawa Yukichi" and patiently teach them what they should pay attention to in life in Japan.

Perhaps this is why "when a person is rich, he is surrounded by good people."

For Sun Wufu and others, whether the landlord's attitude is good or not is actually secondarily. The key is that the conditions of the house are superior at a glance. The conditions are so good that they are simply unbelievable that they can't help but be overjoyed.

You should know that the house Ning Weimin rented for Sun Wufu and others was not the "Abado" built with wood or lightweight steel, but the "Busy Xiong" built with heavy steel frames or reinforced concrete.

This kind of house has strong earthquake resistance, good sound insulation and high safety. In terms of temperature insulation and comfort, it is much better than the "Abado" renovated apartment in Ginza.

Not to mention anything else, this apartment has windows, which has much stronger lighting and breathability. People live here and are not prone to depression or illness.

Moreover, the house is not small, with a room of at least six square meters, and it is very spacious for two people to live in, which is more than enough.

In addition, there is an elevator in the corridor, a telephone downstairs, and each house has a separate kitchen and toilet, as well as tables, chairs, benches, and basic household appliances. Even pots, pans, and quilts are ready-made.

When Sun Wufu and the others came, they not only checked in with their luggage, but also entered four modernizations in one step.

What menus, refrigerators and washing machines are complete, making it very convenient to live here.

So there is still dissatisfaction or unhappy?

To be honest, the low rent here is just because the remote plot affects the value, and does not mean that the quality and conditions of the house are poor.

For Sun Wufu and others, such a dormitory is much better than squeezing a small bungalow for four people in Beijing, it is much better than the simple buildings where many Beijing residents live.

In the words of the village chief’s son Sun Liuwu, “I really didn’t expect that when we came to Japan, we would live in small foreign buildings. The head of the hometown can’t live in such a building. This is all the treatment of the county magistrate.”

Needless to say, such dormitories naturally make people angry, and I am grateful to the big boss Ning Weimin's arrangements.

That's not all. After meeting the landlord, seeing the residence, and getting the keys, Ning Weimin took Sun Wufu and the others to have a meal.

In order to save trouble, they didn't go far away, but just found a ramen restaurant nearby to eat the Japanese favorite carbohydrate set meal - ramen with fried dumplings.

As a result, even this ordinary meal made Sun Wufu and the others feast and were very satisfied.

I have to say that first of all, the reception attitude is different from that of the country.

When they went there, it was not time for dinner. The owner of the noodle restaurant was almost laughing to death when he saw so many customers coming.

He kept nodding and bowing, pouring water and handing the chopsticks.

This kind of politeness is extremely lethal to Sun Wufu and the others, and it immediately makes them at a loss.

You know, no one in China has respected them so much, and the enthusiasm of the noodle shop owners has really touched everyone.
