Chapter 1883: Visiting the School

In Country M, the Xia family did not have any influence and did not even have many friends here. Even if Xia Wen wanted to help Qiao Mei and the rest, there was also nothing much he could do.

“There’s nothing he can do even if he’s here. We must rely on ourselves! Didn’t you do very well in your business back in the capital? Why are you so full of doubts here,” Qiao Mei said.

“It’s not the same. Anyway, everything is so unfamiliar,” Xia He explained.

“Rest well and don’t think too much. You still have me. Let’s go and take a look at my school tomorrow. I still don’t know how to get there. We can also take a look at the shops nearby and see if there’s any business we can do around there,” Qiao Mei said as she patted Xia He’s shoulder to comfort her.

“Do you already have a good idea?” Xia He asked.

“I’m thinking about opening a restaurant and promoting the food from our country. My culinary skills should be able to attract a lot of customers,” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

Xia He did not doubt this at all. If someone said that Qiao Mei t s cooking did not taste good, that person must have lost all sense of taste!

“Sounds good! I can’t cook well, but I can prepare the ingredients for you!” Xia He said excitedly.

“l can teach you. Go to bed now. The two of us still have a lot of things to do tomorrow!” Qiao Mei gave Xia He a push and urged her to rest as soon as possible.

Xia He tossed and turned in bed the entire night and did not sleep well. She kept thinking about how to earn money. Qiao Mei, on the other hand, slept very soundly.

“You… look at the dark circles under your eyes. Are you cosplaying a panda?” Qiao Mei held back her laughter and asked.

“Stop talking about it! I’m feeling so frustrated! You don’t have to worry about me. Let’s go to your school now,” Xia He urged.

It took the two of them some effort to find a taxi to take them to Country M’s agricultural university. Country M had vast land and abundant natural resources, and the land was very suitable for growing vegetables, fruits and other crops. The agricultural university here was also more professional than back home.

However, everyone’s focus was on the light industry now. The people of Country M were not so keen on agriculture anymore. Since there was limited funding, Country Mt s agricultural university needed to self finance their purchase of experimental fields and professional equipment, so the school campus was not big for an agricultural university.

“It doesn’t even look as nice as Capital University! It’s not even half the size of Capital University,” Xia He said unhappily.

“Size doesn’t matter as long as the essentials are all there. They definitely have more strong points than us. Isn’t it our task to learn all the strong points and then go back and improve the seeds we have? It doesn’t matter how big the place is,” Qiao Mei said.

“You’re right. I just feel that this place is different from what I imagined,” Xia He said.

“Let’s go over there and walk around,” Qiao Mei said as she pointed at the library.

Qiao Mei and Xia He were a pleasing sight as they walked around the school.

All the students who walked passed by them turned around to look at them. There were already more than 10 male students who wanted to get their contact details, but Qiao Mei rejected them tactfully.

“They’re so expressive!” Xia He said as she patted her chest.

“Yes, this is the way they are. You’ll get used to it after a while. You have to practice speaking the language more or you won’t be able to communicate with them,” Qiao Mei instructed.

“Alright! I’ll learn when I’m free!” Xia He said.

It only took them two hours to finish walking around the entire school. When they were done, they went straight to the main street opposite the school. This was the main shopping area near the school.upda@te by new novel. o r g

There were all kinds of things sold here, though the majority of the shops were restaurants or cafeterias. Qiao Mei took a look around and saw two restaurants which were opened by fellow citizens. The food looked the same as what they used to eat in the capital.

“Let’s go and try it!” Xia He said excitedly as she pointed at one of the restaurants. However, when she thought about how they did not have much money now, she retracted her hand awkwardly.

“Let’s go and try. If we want to open a restaurant, we have to know the type of food the locals like.” Qiao Mei pulled Xia He and walked into the shop.

The shop space looked very big from the outside, but it was not as spacious as it looked when they entered. In order to seat more customers, the whole place was filled with tables and chairs. There were about 15 tables inside.

Qiao Mei and Xia He chose to sit near the window. From this position, they could observe which shops were more popular with the shoppers and when there was more human traffic in the area.

“You… should be from our country’s capital!” The lady boss came over hesitantly with the menu..
