Two hundred and seventy-three chapters heaven and earth
When he went shopping for groceries, Hong Tao deliberately pretended to be a foreigner who didn't understand Chinese, and then asked Irene to contact the vendors directly, using her North American Chinese to pick and choose the prices. Hong Tao didn't say a word and just stood by.
Watch and be responsible for carrying things.
Whenever Irene bought something, Hong Tao would drag her to another stall selling the same thing, and then he would go to the battle himself and ask the price again, and the result would often be much lower than the price Irene bought.
The most ruthless thing is the guy selling small tomatoes. The tomatoes cost 8 yuan per catty, but he actually let him sell them for 25 yuan per catty. This is because Irene spent a lot of effort to get the tomatoes from 30 yuan per catty.
Talking about it.
"Why did they lie to me? Aren't they afraid that others will no longer trust them? How could it be so different? I have talked to a Chinese student in our school many times, and he also told me a lot about China, not about buying groceries.
Do you still need to distinguish between true and false?" Irene was very angry, or was very shocked. She and Hong Tao boasted for a long time about how well they knew China, and ended up like this.
"Hey, what you listen to others and read in books can only be knowledge and never become experience. Now you have more experience, so you should be happy." Hong Tao originally wanted to tease her, but he didn't expect that
She was so shocked.
"I heard from Sam that you have a new girlfriend? Is she that Miss Liu?" Eileen suddenly changed the topic and no longer bothered with the issue of vegetable prices.
"Sam is just a gossip guy. Don't worry. Miss Liu and I are fake to deceive his father. You don't understand this. It's about some living habits in China, and it's gone now." Hong Tao secretly made up his mind that next year
We must raise the rent for Mr. and Mrs. Sam. They are almost becoming the little-footed detective team on the street.
"What about you and Miss Zhou? I heard from Gale that you had a conflict?" Eileen is indeed Sam's daughter, with the gene of gossip flowing in her body.
"She went back to Japan to get married. She came here a few days ago and I was abandoned again." Hong Tao said while resting his head on Irene's shoulder. Now Irene likes driving, especially honking the horn desperately when overtaking.
I don’t know if she can still drive after this habit has developed. She will probably be scolded if she gets on the road.
"Oh, so you are single now? That's good news for me, hahaha!" Eileen burst out laughing after hearing this. She really had something to say.
"You should graduate this year. Have you found a job?" Hong Tao didn't intend to discuss this issue in depth. He had temporarily lost interest in love, mainly because the old wounds in his heart had not healed yet.
"Of course, I have found a law firm in Boston, where I have been interning during the summer vacations of the past few years. How about, I will become a paralegal soon." Erin said about her job, or
Very proud.
"Okay, then I will give you a high-end leather bag. The lawyer must be flattered. If I have a case in the future, I will have to trouble you to help me litigate." Hong Tao didn't know what a paralegal was at all, but
You have to compliment me.
"Is Shanghai far away from Beijing? I see it's very far away on the map." Erin suddenly asked about the geography of China.
"It's okay, it's not very far. It only takes 2 hours by plane and about 10 hours by train. Why do you ask? Want to go to Shanghai?" Hong Tao was a little puzzled, but he didn't think much about it.
"No, there is a Chinese student in our school who is from Shanghai." Eileen's answer was perfect.
Hong Tao, Irene, and Liu Gang worked hard for 2 hours to prepare a large table of dishes. Although it was not a big meal, Hong Tao did his best. In order to satisfy the appetites of those carnivores, he deliberately cooked more
He ordered some meat dishes such as braised chicken legs, braised pork ribs, and stir-fried beef tenderloin, but he did not cook fish. Gale and the others were not used to eating freshwater fish, and Hong Tao was not good at removing fish bones, so he might as well not get into trouble.
In fact, Hong Tao's work was all in vain. Boss Liu and the other old fishing men had to call several times before they finally came back. Then they had a hearty meal. After eating, they patted their butts and left again.
In less than half an hour, there was really not enough time to eat and not to cook. Hong Tao was so angry that he didn't even want to wash the dishes and left it all to that Liu Gang.
Liu Gang is such an honest young man. A large bowl of ribs and half a plate of chicken legs almost went into his stomach. When Hong Tao asked him whether the ribs or the noodles were more delicious, he actually still said that the noodles were better. Just like Boss Liu.
The scolding is the same, this guy is just a naughty kid, he will not be punished even if he is exhausted!
Four old men were fishing, and Hong Tao and Irene had nothing to do, so Hong Tao took Irene back to his home to catch up on some sleep. This time he really slept. He was too tired from last night and was busy again this morning.
Half a day, I still have to experience the nightlife in the evening. I happen to have free time in the afternoon, so it’s important to take care of my body first.
This time Hong Tao didn't get up late and slept for 2 hours. The alarm clock woke him and Irene up. After washing and dressing up, the two returned to Boss Liu's courtyard. At this time, the four old men finally stopped fishing.
As they were sitting in the courtyard drinking tea and chatting, Hong Tao didn't know where they got so much energy, and they didn't even have to suffer from jet lag.
At 6 o'clock sharp, Hong Tao set off in a large RV. Irene and him sat in the cab, and the remaining four old men were all in the RV. According to Boss Liu, dinner should be a Western meal, so I chose
The restaurant is the Italian Venetian Restaurant in the Kempinski Hotel. This restaurant is just behind the Lufthansa Shopping Mall and it is said that the Italian food is pretty good.
Guests and hosts are welcome. Even though Gale and the others live in an evil capitalist country, when it comes to eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, they are really not as good as Boss Liu, a socialist elite. Even if the Toronto they live in is the largest and most prosperous in Canada,
In this city, they are at best a small middle class with no worries about food and clothing, a car and a house, and they rarely visit the local luxury restaurants.
Except for the Italians, probably none of the people here are qualified to comment on whether the food in this Venetian restaurant is authentic or not. Boss Liu only eats the same brand, and according to his opinion, there should not be any in that seafood pasta.
It's like noodles, but it's all about seafood.
Hong Tao was quite satisfied with his meal. The food here tasted good, especially the Angus rib-eye steak. It was cooked deliciously, with a strong flavor of red wine, and the meat was delicate and made with good craftsmanship.
At dinner, everyone drank some white wine. Although they didn’t drink much, everyone’s faces were flushed when they came out, especially Hong Tao. When he heard Boss Liu say that the evening’s program was arranged for Heaven and Earth
At this time, the blood circulation all over the body immediately accelerated.
The name "Heaven and Earth" sounds so high-end and classy. It is basically the back garden of God's house. Apart from Chang'e, there must be fairies...
Hong Tao lived for more than 40 years in his previous life. He only heard the name of this place, only saw its shape, but not its appearance. This appearance is not the appearance, but the content. He, a common man, had no chance to go there to spend money. However, what he didn't expect was
, in this new life, I finally have the opportunity to criticize the dross of society.
Heaven and Earth is a nightclub. It is located in the annex building of the Great Wall Hotel on East Third Ring Road North in Beijing. There are many rumors about this place. It has a military background and a Taiwanese underworld background. It is dressed in a weird way.
But whether it is true or false, people at Hong Tao's level don't know, and even Boss Liu may not be able to figure out the details.
However, the reason why Heaven and Earth is famous is not because of its background, but because of its price and service quality. It is said that even the ordinary waiters here are carefully selected, and they have very high requirements for height and appearance. They cannot be older than 28
age.
In addition, you must have a college diploma or above, at least be able to master English conversation, and be familiar with all the wines on the wine list, Japanese and Korean simple words for the fruit plate in a short period of time. Anyway, let’s put it this way, heaven
Take any waiter in the human world, and in terms of appearance, figure, etiquette and conversation, he is much better than most white-collar workers sitting in high-end office buildings. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
