After making a wish, financial freedom

Chapter 193 Daily life
Nana replied:
"Well, then I'm going back, play on the boat and be careful..."

Li Zhuo nodded, and then returned to the boat.

This is a small fishing boat with a diesel engine. After starting it, it started running on the lake with a chug.

The control is very simple, there is a handle to control the direction, the staff stood aside and let Li Zhuo try to drive.

There is really no difficulty, and the boat is small and flexible.

Li Zhuo drove the boat to the center of the lake and stopped the boat. After that, he hung the bait on the fishing rod and lowered the hook to fish.

But after waiting for a while, there seemed to be no fish to bite the hook.

The staff at the stern spoke in broken English for a long time, to the effect that the weather is hot now, and the fish in the lake like to hide in shallow water under the shade of trees, or in aquatic grass areas, and there are not many fish in the center of the lake.

So, they sailed to the shallow water area again, hooked and fished...

……

Nana smiled and watched Li Zhuo get on the boat, and watched him happily wave goodbye to her.

The lake water is rippling because of the fishing boats. The island in the center of the lake is small and close to the lake shore. Looking at the grass planted on it, it feels soft and close.

She turned around and took two steps, feeling the grass rustling under her feet, the flat lakeside grass was well trimmed and full of greenery, making one want to lie on it and stretch.

There is a breeze blowing by the lake all year round. In a tropical country like Thailand, where the weather is always hot, it is really rare and comfortable here.

With a smile on her face, she kicked off her shoes and walked barefoot on the lawn.

Her feet were slightly prickly and itchy. She smiled and walked a few steps, then took her shoes, crossed the lawn, and walked back along the wooden floor that was laid all the way in the back garden.

On the end side of the veranda, there is an open-air swimming pool, about 10 meters long and 3 meters wide, not too big, but because the water is changed twice a week, it looks very fresh.

Coupled with the lake view in the distance, it feels like an infinity pool.

The swimming pool was originally placed here instead of in front of the main building, probably for the purpose of matching the lake view.

When she came out of the back garden, she didn't take the main road, which was paved with bricks and stones, and it hurt her feet to walk up.

Nana playfully jumped from the steps to the lawn next to the main road, and walked along the lawn to the door of the main building, the villa.

Seeing her coming, a Filipino maid came out of the villa and greeted her.

This girl's name is Nancy, she is about 20 years old, she looks lively and looks down-to-earth.

Looking at his figure, he has long hands and long legs, and looks a little strong. I feel that he is a good hand in housekeeping.

In contrast, although Nana also has long arms and legs, she is much more delicate and taller.

The two exchanged a few words in English. After Nancy knew that Nana was the hostess, she yelled into the villa.

Soon, another Filipino maid also came out. Her name was lotti, and she was also very young, less than 20 years old. She was relatively introverted, but she could speak English and chat.

Nana put the shoes in front of the door and changed into slippers.

When she visited last time, she also noticed that some corners of the house had not been wiped clean. Now that she came in, she could see that many places had been tidied up.

She nodded involuntarily.

To be honest, a good Filipino maid is really good. She is down-to-earth, capable, and hardworking. She has almost no sense of presence at ordinary times, but the house is tidy.

Without her saying anything, one of the two Filipino maids continued to clean up the villa, while the other girl took a small bucket and a rag, and planned to wipe the balcony and veranda in the back garden.

Nana went upstairs to tidy up the bedroom, tidy up her things, took a nap for a while, and then went downstairs.

Nancy came over and asked in English:

"Miss, what do you have for dinner?"

Nana didn't know what Li Zhuo had bought, so she went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator to have a look.

There are only four or five eggs and two tomatoes in it.

Nana was annoyed and funny when she saw it. She didn't know how Li Zhuo ate for lunch.

She then asked nancy:

"Can you cook?"

"Yeah, I can cook Thai food, Filipino food, and simple Western food." Nancy laughed.

This girl is quite nice, Nana asked with a smile while dialing the phone:

"Is it taught in school?"

"Some are, but not many, most of them are learned by watching TV and taught by previous employers."

Nancy once worked in another household in Thailand for a year.

When the phone was connected, Nana asked:

"Dear, didn't you eat much at noon, did you? What do you want for dinner?"

Li Zhuo's voice came over:

"Eating hot pot, you just came back, let's go to that hot pot again."

"Then how should the workers eat?"

"Oh, yes, I almost forgot about them. In this case, you go to buy some vegetables and come back, I will transfer money to you, and you will take care of these housework in the future, I will always forget."

Female housekeepers are the norm, also in Thailand.

Nana didn't think there was anything wrong:
"Okay, no need to transfer money, I'll buy it now."

Li Zhuo was a little careless before, only then remembered:
"Oh, and, it's time to find a chef, otherwise no one will cook for us, now..."

Nana smiled and said:

"...Nancy can cook, let her do it first."

"Well, okay," Li Zhuo said afterward, "Remember, we still need to hire a chef, a Filipino maid, and a part-time plumber, otherwise the swimming pool will be abandoned..."

Nana listened to him rambling a few words, agreed, and hung up the phone.

She then smiled and said to Nancy:

"Call lotti together, let's go grocery shopping."

Just as she was talking, her phone vibrated, and when Nana clicked on it, she found that Li Zhuo had transferred a sum of money to her.

The amount is a bit astonishing, directly 500 million baht, which is equivalent to 100 million yuan.

She gave a lot, and Nana was very touched, knowing that Li Zhuo trusted her a lot.

Nana called back again and said in a low voice:

"You gave too much. I'm afraid that I won't use it well and waste the money."

"It's okay, believe in yourself, make a rough plan, the wages of the workers at home, all kinds of daily expenses, just don't stop, just tell me if you have no money, and I will give..."

The two talked a few more words, when the Filipino maid came in, Nana hung up the phone.

Filipino maids like to go out to buy vegetables, mainly because they are busy at home every day, so it is rare to go out.

The two of them brought two vegetable baskets, followed Nana into the Porsche Panamera parked in the garage, and then slowly drove out of the gate of the manor and drove towards the city.

The two Filipino maids are young people, and it is quite novel to be able to ride in a luxury car, so they couldn't help asking:
"Miss, this car should be expensive, right?"

"Well, I bought it for 1300 million baht," Nana explained. "Mr. Li seldom drives it. Maybe he will be a grocery cart in the future..."

After driving into the city, I found a vegetable market and bought some green vegetables one after another.

Green vegetables produced locally in Thailand are relatively cheap, while those imported from abroad are obviously more expensive.

For example, lettuce, broccoli, and carrots are all imported from China, so the prices are high.

In local dishes, a bag of beans costs 4 yuan, a cauliflower costs 3 yuan, a Chinese cabbage costs 4 yuan, and a cabbage costs 4 yuan.

Meat is also cheap. Pork chops cost 15 yuan a pack, pork costs 12 yuan a catty, chicken legs cost 8.5 yuan a catty, and chicken wings are more expensive at 14 yuan a catty.

Because there are a lot of people in the family, Nana buys meat and vegetables in Doli, so that she can eat them for a few days.

Afterwards, they drove to the Lanpo Seafood Market in Pattaya, and asked about the prices. They found that the two at the door were expensive, and the deeper they went, the cheaper they were.

Nana continued to walk in with the Filipino maid, and successively bought Pipi shrimp, sliced ​​salmon, blue crab with paste, small green dragon, mussels, etc.

After one purchase, it cost 2200 yuan.

This amount should be enough for four or five days.
