Princeton Avenue in the Central District is the most prosperous area in Shengjing today. There are many foreign banks here and there are many private clubs that are only open to Westerners.
Lu Ming walked with a group of young men and women, all of whom were classmates from the business school, and most of them were fellow villagers of Sun Jingjun. He and Gao Xiaoli were also attracted by Sun Jingjun.
In fact, Hofers had been talking on the phone for a long time last night, and Horton, the boss of Guanglifa, wanted to make an appointment with him.
For me, it would be better to go shopping and relax with these young people than to waste such time. It is very pleasant.
The only thing that made people feel a little uncomfortable was that Gao Xiaoli was hanging around a junior senior sister, and he seemed to be someone's licking dog.
I want to say, don’t you have Xiaohua? If you compare the two, Xiaohua is more suitable to be a wife.
However, the junior senior sister wears red nail polish, light makeup, and a very popular blue flower dress. Her delicate temperament will indeed make the young men who are bored in campus all day refreshing and flock to her.
In school, the school uniforms are all traditional blue jackets and black skirts, or they are very rustic. It is difficult to see someone dressed like this senior.
This senior named Zhao must have a good family background and be very knowledgeable. She quickly became the center of everyone's attention as she walked around introducing the rare things found in the foreign trade.
According to Sun Jingjun, Gao Xiaoli was obsessed with this senior Zhao Peipei the first time he saw her, and he chased her ass like a man possessed.
I drank too much that day and decided to join the performing arts club because Senior Zhao Peipei is the president of the club.
To be honest, there are not many children from truly wealthy families who study at Shengjing Business College, but it is extremely rare for someone as poor as Gao Xiaoli.
Zhao Peipei treated Gao Xiaoli very well, which made Gao Xiaoli even more attracted to him.
In front of the soda shop, Zhao Peipei was very considerate and invited Gao Xiaoli to drink soda. Most of the others were boys inviting girls. She did the opposite and saved Gao Xiaoli from embarrassment.
But her eyes clearly showed deep contempt for Gao Xiaoli, as if she had discovered an ugly novelty toy and was just playing with it.
Under the umbrella in front of the soda shop, these students formed their own groups, getting close to each other, sitting in twos and threes at three tables.
At the snow-white round table by the street, what Sun Jingjun thought was the Iron Triangle was replaced by Gao Xiaoli, the sophomore who had met Lu Ming outside the Xinzhi Bookstore, his name was Yuan Keli, and he was still wearing the same cheap suit.
As for Gao Xiaoli, he and many people crowded into the table where Zhao Peipei was, and they were chatting lively.
Lu Ming knew that Gao Dali probably didn't tell his brother about his affairs. He might have thought it was too incredible, and he didn't know who he was, so he just kept silent. Many times, this was also a way for people to protect themselves.
road.
"A Ming, do you know how to play billiards?" Yuan Keli has been following Lu Ming during today's outing, while Zhao Peipei and Gao Xiaoli were also talking about playing billiards at the table over there.
Lu Ming smiled and said: "It's okay." I felt that Yuan Keli was not very popular, probably because his really rich classmates disliked him, and the poor classmates thought that he liked to suck up to rich people too much.
Looking at his watch, Lu Ming smiled and said, "It's almost lunch time. Let's find a place to have something to eat."
Sun Jingjun looked at Gao Xiaoli's table a little angry and said, "Okay!"
Lu Ming looked at him and smiled: "Don't be angry. I'm treating you today. Let's go eat something delicious. I won't be able to go in the afternoon and tomorrow. If the professor calls on you, you will have to cover for me."
This time I really wanted to get my diploma by the way, but thinking about it, it would be too embarrassing if my ultimate degree in this world was from Shengjing Business School.
"What are you talking about? I should go and tell them." Sun Jingjun stood up.
Sun Jingjun went to finish talking, and after Lu Ming and the others left, they also dispersed in twos and threes, and some of the better friends walked together to discuss where to have lunch.
…
There is the most famous Michelin restaurant in Shengjing on Princeton Avenue, which is a two-story building like a snow-white palace.
At this moment, Sun Jingjun looked at the handsome Western waiter in suits and ties at the reception desk next to the restaurant door, and smiled bitterly at Lu Ming: "Should we change places?"
Yuan Keli looked at the splendid scenery in the restaurant with envy and a little flinch, and murmured: "It would be great if I could really go in." It doesn't have to be that you can sit and dine here, even if you can go in here and even walk around, you can meet your classmates in the future.
If they brag about it, it will be a great success.
Because the Michelin restaurant is an old restaurant in Shengjing for more than 100 years. It used to be only open to Westerners, but now it is a membership system. However, the selection of members from Zhongzhou is extremely strict. Only the top people in Zhongzhou can enter. It is said that the Montenegro Special Zone is here
Before the concession was opened, there were no more than 100 Zhongzhou people who had received VIP cards. To the millions of Zhongzhou people in Shengjing, he was truly one of the top people in a million.
Westerners can still enter casually, but if they don't have a membership card, they will register and they will be considered as members of the restaurant. This can avoid some legal problems.
When Lu Ming just made a call at a public phone booth not far away and said that he was going to dine at Michelin today, Yuan Keli and Sun Jingjun thought they heard wrongly, but they didn't expect that Lu Ming really led them here.
At this time, Lu Ming had already walked towards the welcome desk, and Yuan Keli and Sun Jingjun could only follow him.
"Table No. 18 was just ordered by Black Mountain Investment Company. My surname is Zhang." Lu Ming spoke in Zhongzhou dialect.
Although the Western waiter behind the reception desk frowned, he had just received a call from the front desk, and he had just recorded it in the book that there was table No. 18 reserved by Montenegro Investment Company. There would be four guests, and the host was Mr. Zhang.
People in the Heishan Concession are clearly treated differently by their bosses because the Heishan Special Economic Zone is located in the south of the Yangtze River and is directly under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Capital in terms of administrative management. It has recently become part of the East China Sea Economy.
The manager and foremen gave the waiters several lessons, saying that it was the boss's instructions that if Montenegrin people wanted to dine in the restaurant, they could enter freely with their Montenegrin concession area driver's license, work ID, etc., just like Western individual tourists.
, just register as a member.
Therefore, although it is basically required to speak Western in the Michelin restaurant, the other person speaks Central Asian. Since he understands it, the waiter still has a professional smile on his face, "Okay, three gentlemen, please! There is another one who will be later.
Are you here?"
It should be said that these three people, two students wearing one suit, although they look cheap, they are not disheveled, so there is no way to refuse.
There was another female waitress on the side, leading Lu Ming and the others into the restaurant.
Yuan Keli and Sun Jingjun followed Lu Ming tremblingly.
Lu Ming turned around and smiled at them: "I've heard of the name of this place. It happens to be close. Come in and see what's going on. Sooner or later I'll tear this place down!"
The two of them were stunned and didn't know what to say.
