Chapter 12 This is a good idea

Leave the dealership.

First I found a Wal-Mart and bought some daily necessities.

Now I am temporarily staying at the Four Seasons Hotel. There are only some basic daily necessities in the hotel. There is no place to buy them on Lanai, and even online shopping cannot be delivered.

I happened to be in Honolulu, so of course I had to take the opportunity to do some shopping.

Suri also specializes in hoarding a bunch of canned cats, cat tea sticks, catnip, etc.

Occasionally, when he encounters a snack he is interested in, Daju will point out his stubby paws, and Su Rui, the poop scraper, will help him get it, which is quite like a "humanoid ATM machine".

After calling my mother to ask questions, I also helped her buy some toothpaste, shampoo, sunscreen and other products. The shopping cart was quickly filled up, and I went to check out with satisfaction.

Secretary Amanda was not squeamish. After paying the order, she took the initiative to pick up the shopping bag and introduced Suri:

"Actually, there is no need to buy so much. There is a supermarket on Maui next door, but the variety of products is not as complete as Wal-Mart. It should be because of the relatively high cost of freight and delivery. Online shopping malls like Amazon would rather open up the European market , have not come to Hawaii to do business. Although the local population is only over one million, the consumption power is actually quite strong."

After listening.

Suri said with a smile:

"Mosquito legs are also meat. Maybe I can support one or two local shopping websites and sell them directly to Amazon at a high price after running them. This company has been burning money for so many years and finally started to make a profit. Sooner or later, it will pay attention to the Hawaii market. "

"Boss, this is a good idea, and the price of luxury goods in Hawaii is cheaper than in California and New York. A Chanel women's bag costs US$3,300 in Los Angeles, but it only costs more than US$2,800 here. We can attract the attention of tourists, order directly from our website, and have it delivered to the hotel where the tourists are staying.”

Although Secretary Amanda is now helping Suri take care of Lanai Island affairs.

But this woman graduated from Harvard Business School and went to McKinsey Consulting Company for training. If she didn't have any real skills, how could she have been spotted by Su Rui and selected from a bunch of personal profiles to become his personal secretary.

Suri continued:

"When Amanda is free, help me find a suitable team, invest seven to eight million dollars in it, add zero in the future, package it and sell it to interested peers. This would be great."

Secretary Amanda smiled and said:

"The shares you hold in Facebook still have room for appreciation. There is no need to touch it for the time being. And the development of Lanai Island is very expensive. It is time to consider how to earn enough funds. Hawking is even sitting in a wheelchair. If you can write "A Brief History of Time," boss, you should be more open-minded and continue to look for a career that you like."

Su Rui smiled, knowing that she wanted to comfort and enlighten him. The past two years had indeed been quite difficult.

Except for trying to short U.S. stocks after the Olympics, even if I saw some business opportunities at other times, I was too lazy to seize them, and I missed many opportunities in vain.

For example, Amazon's stock price has soared in the past two years, and Apple, which launched smartphones, has also seen its stock price rise.

It should be because he had little influence in his early years and couldn't make many waves. The world now is almost the same as the previous life in Su Rui's memory.

He added at the moment:

"Don't worry, I will get the funds to develop Lanai. I'm in a good mood recently. Say hello to my twelve-member investment team and say that I, Suri, am back."

"Your investment team in New York now only has ten people left. Without business, there is no bonus income. Last week, two people submitted their resignation letters together and moved to a British hedge fund company."

"..."

Knowing that they were talking about business, Little Rock, who was accompanying them, didn't interrupt. He silently carried two shopping bags and put them into the trunk of the BMW X5 borrowed from the car dealership.

It wasn't until the topic of investment ended that Little Rock became very interested and asked:

"It's almost lunch time. How about going to the clothing store run by my mother? Near her store, there is an old Kahlua roast pig restaurant. You can also eat chicken risotto. I used to go there often. The owner is a Chinese. .”

"Okay, since you meet your compatriots, of course you have to take care of business."

Suri happened to be hungry.

He opened the car door and continued to sit in the passenger seat. Secretary Amanda drove the car. Following Little Rock's guidance, he came to a lively street lined with shops.

Passing by several shops with shells and other handicrafts, Little Rock first took them to the clothing store run by his mother.

Suri came to the store and looked around.

I found that the walls were covered with all kinds of floral shirts, as well as light and loose trousers, as well as large pants in rich colors.

It is full of tropical style, seems to be mainly operated for tourists, and the highest price is only 49.9 US dollars.

Saw my son coming.

Little Rock's white mother put down the hot dog bun and wiped her mouth, opened her hands to welcome her son, and gave her son a passionate bear hug.

After introducing each other, they learned that Suri was the new owner of Lanai Island. His mother immediately became very enthusiastic and boasted about how sensible little Roque was. The child had been smart since he was a child.

Little Rock, who had only graduated from high school and had not even been admitted to community college, was greatly embarrassed when he heard this.

I felt ashamed of being killed on the spot. Before my mother revealed more embarrassing news, I hurriedly wanted to leave for lunch.

I'm here, but I'm short of some clothes.

Suri was not in a hurry to leave, so she picked out some floral shirts and large pants, tried them on under a curtain, and paired them with two pairs of flip-flops and a beige hat with black stripes and a wide brim.

Just change out of the pants and leather shoes you just wore, and your whole body will feel much cooler.

After all, it is Suri who was once ranked as the fourth most popular bachelor in the world. Even if he changes into the clothes from the stall, he still looks handsome.

From the upper-class upstart to the island-style playboy, there is only a flowery shirt between them.

After little Rock's mother praised her, she gave her an internal discount. The total price of all these items was only a hundred dollars.

Things wholesale from the other side of the Pacific may not be expensive, but shop rent, labor, water and electricity costs, etc., all have to be calculated separately.

Suri didn't like putting wallets in her pockets, so she asked secretary Amanda to give her two hundred dollars and leave with the bag in hand.

The so-called Kahlua Roast Pig.

The traditional method is to wrap the whole pig in banana leaves and marinate it with salt, put it in an underground stove, and smoke and heat it for a whole day.

Suri didn't understand this before, but only after reading the introduction on the wall of the restaurant did she understand this dish.

The Chinese owner of the restaurant still insists on the traditional Kahlua roast pig. Based on the idea of ​​​​small profits but quick turnover, the food prices are not high.

The family who ran the restaurant neither recognized Suri nor wanted to say hello to him. After all, more than 30% of Hawaii's population is Asian, which is different from some small towns where Asians are rare.

And it happened to be lunch time, and the kitchen was so busy that there was no time to chat.

Suri found a small dining table and sat down, letting Daju squat on the dining seat. Suri specially ordered a chicken risotto and put it in a packaging box in front of it.

Little Rock finally understood why there were only three people, but four meals were ordered.

Seeing Da Ju opening his mouth as wide as possible, as if he wanted to stuff the entire lunch box into his mouth, Secretary Amanda twitched her eyes and asked:

"Can cats really eat these? No wonder they gain so much weight. Will it affect their health?"

Su Rui was extremely calm and replied:

"Don't worry, it has been eating this since it was a child, and its body has adapted. If you feed it cat food, it will lose its temper..."
