Hu Datong got up the next day and knocked on Ye Chen's room door. He wanted to go out for breakfast with Ye Chen. He didn't expect that Ye Chen was not in the room at all.
Where is Doctor Ye?
Hu Datong was still surprised. He took out his cell phone and called Ye Chen.
"Doctor Ye, haven't you woken up yet?"
"Boss Hu, I'm not in the hotel, I'm at the International Hotel."
Hu Datong was still strange. He didn't know that Ye Chen picked up a friend last night after Ye Chen explained it clearly.
"Boss Hu, you go to have breakfast first, and we will return to Chinatown in a while."
After hanging up the phone, Karina was still asleep.
Now when I opened my eyes in a daze, I asked: "My dear, who?"
"A Chinese boss."
When she got up with Karina, Karina put on makeup to prevent others from recognizing her.
It can be said that women's makeup is like cosmetic surgery.
Now Karina is like that. After her meticulous makeup, Ye Chen looks really different from the original Karina.
Karina also added a mole on it, even more unrecognizable.
"How is it? Can you recognize it?"
Ye Chen shook his head, almost unable to recognize it.
After the two washed up, they packed their things.
Breakfast is included here, and the two went to eat breakfast.
The breakfast here in the hotel is Western style, looks clean and rich, and is completely different from the breakfast that those Indians eat.
After Ye Chen and Karina had breakfast, they went downstairs, then stopped a taxi outside and headed to Chinatown.
Compared to night, it is obviously much safer during the day.
However, thinking of the situation last night, Karina was still a little scared.
After the two went to Chinatown.
More than an hour later, when they arrived at the declining intersection of Chinatown, Ye Chen and Karina got out of the car, Karina asked, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going to give acupuncture treatment to an old grandma in a while, she is an old Chinese."
Ye Chen and Karina went to the place where the grandmother lived.
When I arrived there, I saw the old woman at the door.
"Grandma, here I am."
"Doctor Ye, here you are."
Ye Chen gave the old woman acupuncture and moxibustion treatment last night. The old woman found that her original rheumatic bone pain was indeed much better.
"Doctor Ye, who is this?"
"This is an Indian friend I met in Mumbai."
"Hello." The two greeted each other.
After entering the grandmother, now the grandmother's family has left again, including her husband, who also went out to work.
Although her husband belongs to the Kshatriya class, he still has to go out for business.
Ye Chen and Karina were sitting there, and the grandmother brought them black tea and coffee to greet them.
Knowing that Ye Chen and the two had already had breakfast, the old lady didn't go busy anymore.
"Grandma, how lively was this Chinatown back then?"
"When I first immigrated, it was still very lively. Thousands of Chinese and overseas Chinese lived here. They were sitting in the sugar, tea business, and the business was still very hot. Then there was a war and everything was gone."
For that era, the old lady remembered very clearly.
It may have caused some sad things to the old lady. She was really impressed when she recalled the situation back then.
"Then why don't they come back after leaving?"
"It's difficult. When those Chinese left, they lost a lot, so they didn't want to come back."
Some of the so-called losses are not only the loss of property, but also the danger of life. In that case, why should these leaving Chinese and overseas Chinese come back here?
Of course, some married locals and took the initiative to integrate into the cultural life here before staying.
Most of the remaining Chinese and overseas Chinese in Kolkata are like this.
"I think this Chinatown can still be developed."
In fact, as long as someone has business, it will soon become lively.
Moreover, Kolkata is a port city, which is closer to those countries in Southeast Asia, and is much more convenient than Mumbai.
"Can it still be developed? I'm afraid it will be difficult!"
Ye Chen thinks it's definitely okay.
As long as it is profitable, those businessmen are only profitable and will soon return.
Even Hu Datong and his fellow villagers are the same.
Of course, in order to spread the skills of Chinese medicine and expand the Chinese medicine market, Ye Chen thinks it is still possible here.
Moreover, there are now more and more Chinese companies in India. Like those mobile phones, Ye Chen has seen many advertisements, including Karina herself who has accepted these advertisements.
"It would be great if more and more Chinese are here."
What the grandmother missed most in recent years is to find a Chinese person or even a fellow villager to chat, the problem is that there is no one.
Ye Chen first finished acupuncture and moxibustion for the old woman, and then called Hu Datong.
Hu Datong had finished his breakfast. When he was looking around Chinatown, he had noticed that the houses here looked very dilapidated.
In addition, some of these houses were originally owned by Chinese and overseas Chinese, but they have been taken over by the government. If you want to buy them now, you can, and the price is relatively cheap.
According to Hu Datong's idea, this price should be paid back in two or three years, and the rest is his own property rights.
Now Hu Datong wants to do business with Chinese medicinal materials here. He feels that this side is indeed better than the Mumbai side, mainly because it is closer to Thailand and Singapore.
After hearing Ye Chen's call and Hu Datong said the location, Ye Chen and his grandmother, Karina, quickly found Hu Datong when they came out.
"Doctor Ye, is this your friend?"
"Yes, friends I met in Mumbai."
Ye Chen didn't say Karina, so the other party might not know. Hu Datong felt that the woman Ye Chen knew should be an Indian beauty.
However, Hu Datong did not like women on the Indian side. They felt that they all smelled curry, and even had body odor. In this regard, the Vietnamese side might be much better.
"Doctor Ye, I like the house in this area. Although it is a bit old, if it is renovated, it is actually very good. The main price is not expensive. You can buy it for two million rupees."
Two million rupees is 200,000 yuan. A shop of hundreds of square meters is really not expensive. Of course, there are very few people here now.
"You think it's okay. Of course, I think if more people can be brought here to do business, it can indeed restore the prosperity of Chinatown back then."
As long as there are more people, everything is easy to do.
There should be more and more Chinese in Mumbai.
After all, it is much easier to do business abroad than at home.
