The boss's surname was Dong, and Han Qi called him Boss Dong. Boss Dong knew some Norwegian when he was in China, so he came here to open a Chinese restaurant to earn money for a few years.
Nowadays, domestic development is too fast and housing prices are too high. Although chefs are a high-income industry, it is still difficult to earn enough to buy a house.
Fortunately, he came to Tromso, where there are many tourists. Otherwise, it would be good to open a Chinese restaurant, let alone make money. It would be good if it didn't make a loss. Because the locals here don't eat out much, the restaurant mainly relies on tourists to make money.
Han Qi had also asked Boss Dong how much he earned in a year before, but Boss Dong did not tell Han Qi on the grounds of commercial confidentiality.
Chefs who went abroad have developed their ability to innovate dishes in order to cope with market competition. The egg fried rice that Han Qi ate was fried by the boss according to the domestic method. It is not special, but looking at other Chinese dishes on the menu, the pictures are really good.
Much like Western food.
While Han Qi was eating, Boss Dong took out his mobile phone to learn Norwegian.
"Haven't you been here two years?"
"What happened to two years? You are so good at English, did you learn it in two years?"
"Um..." Han Qi took a few mouthfuls of rice and asked, "I also want to learn Norwegian. Where did you read it?"
"The textbooks I bought cost a lot of money."
Nowadays, everything is available on the Internet, and there are many tutorials to teach people to learn Norwegian, but they are all mixed in quality. It is too difficult to find something excellent and suitable for you. It is better to spend money to buy textbooks from teachers. If you don’t understand, you can still do it.
Ask the teacher.
Han Qi also wants to learn Norwegian.
But I don’t think I need to buy paid videos. Once I have the language talent, I can learn some Norwegian phrases just by listening to Norwegian people talking. Now I guess I can find a video that introduces grammar and I can learn Norwegian quickly.
While watching TV, I finished the fried rice quickly.
But it’s not easy to go back.
He walked here as if taking a walk, and it took him almost two hours. But now it was completely dark and it was still snowing heavily. Han Qi didn't want to walk to the hotel in such heavy snow... But there were no taxis on the road, so he passed by occasionally.
It's also a private car.
Boss Dong said: "Let me call the taxi company for you."
"Can this still happen?"
"That's all."
The taxi came quickly and the driver was a Norwegian in his forties.
After walking for two hours, it only took ten minutes to drive to the hotel. Han Qi adjusted his hat and prepared to get out of the car.
Snow is not like rain, so you don't need to bring an umbrella. You just need to wear a hat when going out.
As soon as I opened the car door, the unsmiling driver asked in unfamiliar English: "Are you Mr. Han? The one who designed the library?"
"It's me."
The driver smiled, nodded and said, "Come on, the new library is beautiful."
Han Qi was stunned for a moment and said in Norwegian: "Thank you."
The driver was stunned for a moment, and his smile became even brighter, as if Han Qi was no longer a stranger, but a friend. He also said in Norwegian: "You're welcome."
Han Qi watched the car drive away before turning back to the hotel.
I really need to learn Norwegian.
I may come here often to see the progress of the construction in the next year. Learning some Norwegian will make it easier to establish a good relationship with the introverted Norwegians. You can tell from the expression on the driver’s face just now that I spoke in Norwegian.
After thanking you, I became noticeably closer to you.
I went to the hotel to open my mailbox and read over tomorrow's procedures before going to bed.
the next day.
What is it like to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of a building you designed?
Excited.
Before the official start of construction, Han Qi dozed off a little while listening to the leader's speech. It was not that he was disrespectful, but mainly because he didn't understand. It was impossible for Han Qi to speak English exclusively in such long public occasions in China, so the whole process
All in Norwegian.
Han Qi just nodded and smiled.
What made Han Qi's eyes light up was that the blond girl who had met here yesterday also came on stage to speak. She must be one of the few stars in Norway that Tristes said was so beautiful, right? The audience was in the audience.
The cheers also confirmed this for Han Qi.
Han Qi could only hear a few simple words such as co-construction, come on, hope, and thank you.
Han Qi was very excited when he came, but was completely dissipated by a series of foreign words that he did not understand. He originally thought that his mood should be like this, but when Han Qi saw the blonde beauty shoveling a pile of soil symbolically to mark the library
After the construction officially started, Han Qi became inexplicably excited again.
It was like the first time the expectant father felt the little one moving from his wife's belly.
This library is Han Qi's first son.
There may be more designs in the future, but this first one is definitely something Han Qi will never forget.
After the groundbreaking ceremony, Han Qi was free again, and Garcia returned to Oslo. A government official would definitely not chat and eat with Han Qi every day. The workload of Nordic civil servants is light and easy, but it is by no means without work.
"Where are we going?" Han Qi looked at the map on his phone and whispered.
The trip in the system has been started. If you don't go anywhere, you will definitely not get any points this time. Although you can only open eight treasure chests no matter how many points you have, the more points you have, the better the quality of the treasure chests will be. If you give it to yourself again,
How about opening a talent?
Moreover, the vlog has not been updated for a long time, and the private messages are full of fans urging it to be updated.
He didn't dare to read the messages during this period.
When Officer Garcia came to pick up the plane, he told Han Qi about some interesting places in Norway. Han Qi quickly found their locations on the map on his mobile phone. The nearest one seemed to be only more than a hundred kilometers away.
Let’s go here first.
This is a ski resort. Garcia said there are a lot of lights and various protection measures. Experts can go there and novices will not be in danger.
There was not much luggage, so Han Qi packed up the things for the past two days and stuffed them into the suitcase before walking towards Tromso Central Station.
Stations in many places abroad can be called Central Station. Even if it has a formal name, if you have just arrived in a European city and don't know the name of the station, then you are right to tell the taxi driver that it is Central Station.
It didn't snow today, but the sky was still dark.
The polar night will last for at least half a month.
It feels like dusk at one o'clock in the afternoon, and it's still dusk without the sun, but this is already the brightest time of the day in Tromsø. After this time, there is really no light at all in the sky.
Of course, if you are lucky you can see the Aurora.
………………
The station in Tromsø is small, but there are a lot of vehicles coming and going.
Among them, there is a tour bus that is specially designed to pick up people who want to go to the ski resort in winter. The fee is a little more expensive than a normal bus, but it can take you directly to the gate of the ski resort, which is relatively cost-effective.
There are many people in the car now, but mostly couples and parents and children. Han Qi is the only out-of-towner in the car, and he came alone.
In order to avoid embarrassment, Han Qi walked to the back of the car.
Like the handsome guy in the front row, he also put on headphones.
However, he was not listening to music, but watching the Norwegian grammar teaching video at double speed. Han Qi had almost finished watching this video series, and had all the grammar in his mind. After watching the last two videos, he
It’s time to enter the vocabulary learning stage.
Everyone has their own way of learning, and Han Qi’s method cannot be learned by others.
You can master the grammar as soon as you hear it, and you can't forget the words once you memorize them.
This does not mean that he has a strong memory. Yesterday, many people greeted Han Qi at the groundbreaking ceremony. Han Qi had forgotten their names and looks in the past day, so the current Han Qi definitely does not have a strong memory.
But I can just remember the words.
Perhaps this is the abnormality of talent.
When the car started at the appointed time, Han Qi looked up and looked around. He saw that half of the seats in the whole car were unoccupied, and most of the people were sitting closer to the front. It seemed that no one wanted to sit in the back. Han Qi was also happy.
So, put down your phone, lie down on the seat behind and close your eyes to rest.
It’s more than 100 kilometers, and it’s dark weather, driving on such easily icy ground as Norway, you can imagine how long it will take to get there.
Han Qi slept soundly this time.
The bus driver's skills were also very good, there were no bumps along the way, and although the speed was not fast, it was always very stable.
A few rows in front of Han Qi, a girl looked behind her several times, and then woke up her sleeping companion: "Ingrid, Ingrid, look quickly, is that Asian the one we saw yesterday?"
, a designer named Han?”
Ingrid felt that she had just fallen asleep when her friend woke her up, and she looked behind her in confusion.
"It seems so."
She recalled carefully that when she came to the stage to speak, this person was standing closest to the audience. Uncle Garcia said that she originally wanted to invite him to the stage to give a speech, but he refused because he did not understand Norway.
language.
Ingrid gradually woke up.
He is not as blind as his best friend, and he is deeply impressed by this Oriental named Han Qi.
It's not that he is handsome and has a good figure, but she thinks Han Qi has beautiful eyes. She likes to look at Han Qi when he looks at her, but this man always smiles and then looks away, which agrees with her.
My view of Chinese people is modest and low-key.
"Come on, let's go over and get acquainted."
"Ah? No, Ingrid!!!" My best friend pulled Ingrid hard as she tried to stand up, and said in a low voice, "Others are still resting!!"
"Then why did you wake me up when I was sleeping?"
Ingrid pouted.
You don't want to wake others up, but come to wake me instead, right? If there weren't so many people on the bus here, I would just slap you on the bus and let you see how powerful I am.
Seeing that Ingrid was really not ready to go, her best friend Marianne was relieved.
"We sneaked out to play. We don't know what punishment we will get when we go back. Don't worry about other people."
"Humph." Ingrid snorted, "I am already 17 years old!"
However, she also agreed with what Marian said in her heart. She really shouldn't create any complications. What if Han Qi and Uncle Garcia said they saw her? Wouldn't the rare vacation time be wasted?
A few hours later, the car finally arrived.
It takes four hours to drive on this kind of road. Han Qi admires this driver quite a lot. He may not be as good at driving this kind of car as he is.
In fact, Han Qi woke up when the car was halfway through, but she had already closed her eyes and rested until the car stopped before getting up.
It's okay in the car anyway, so why not try to sleep again? The terminal is your destination anyway. Even if you oversleep when parking, the driver will come and wake you up.
After getting off the car and picking up his luggage, Han Qi looked around.
So many people!
Although there are a few people on their bus, it does not mean that there are few people in this ski resort. Everyone comes from all directions. Tromso is only more than 100 kilometers away from here, but some people even come from hundreds or thousands of people.
Came from kilometers away.
Han Qi walked towards a hotel in front of him and looked around when he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Turn around and stare in one direction.
Is it her?
It seems like ugh.
The big star I met at the groundbreaking ceremony yesterday.
He is only face-blind to black Africans and Koreans. As long as people from other countries are deeply impressed or say a few words, they will remember it for a long time...it is definitely not wrong.
Meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
Han Qi quickly dragged his suitcase towards them.
Walking behind the two girls, Han Qi stretched out his hand to say hello, but didn't know their names, so he just said: "hello..."
Ingrid and Marianne turned around in surprise and saw that it was Han Qi who seemed to have seen a ghost. He opened his eyes wide and took a breath of the air-conditioning of the ski resort, causing Marianne to doze off.
"You, you, hello, what's the matter?"
"We just met yesterday, but we never got around to asking your name."
Han Qi's etiquette was very good.
Anyone with normal emotional intelligence has a sixth sense that can roughly judge whether a person likes or dislikes you. However, Han Qi did not feel like or dislike in them, but found that they were a little scared...
Why? Haven’t we seen it before?
This discovery made Han Qi a little embarrassed.
He rarely takes the initiative to strike up conversations with others, and most people behave very kindly. This is also the first time for Han Qi that a girl is afraid of him when he strikes up a conversation with someone.
"Excuse me."
Han Qi is ready to leave.
Only then did Ingrid come back to her senses and said in a panic: "I'm sorry, I lost my temper. You are Designer Han, right?"
"Well, just call me Han Qi. What's your name?"
Marianne suddenly raised her head and looked at Han Qi, looking at him more surprised than before: "Ah? It's normal that you don't know me. Don't you know Ingrid?"
"I...don't recognize you..."
Ingrid and Marianne looked at each other, two little girls spreading information with their eyes.
'He doesn't know you!!'
‘Korean designers are foreigners, so it’s normal.’
'We have been worried for so long for nothing.'
‘Then let’s get to know each other and play together!!’
Ingrid was a little excited. She originally wanted to meet Han Qi, but the situation was not right yesterday. She originally thought there was no chance of meeting Han Qi, but who would have thought that we would meet on the same bus today? This may be God's arrangement, right?
Ingrid threw away all her worries and fears and smiled at Han Qi.
Just like the darkness and dark clouds in the sky in the polar night are all wiped away, the snow melts, and the sun rises from the horizon.
