Chapter 661 Taiping Hotel

After a night's rest, Ye Gui rarely felt that his stomach was still a little full when he got up in the morning.

It seems that I ate a little too much last night!

"Everyone, it seems that I have to change places to use the toilet today. I ate too much last night and I don't seem very hungry!"

He turned on the live broadcast and glanced out the window.

The long-lost sunny day finally appeared.

The sun shines directly through the hotel's floor-to-ceiling windows into most of the room.

"What, the God of Cookery is constipated?"

"Spread the word quickly, the God of Cookery can't pull him out!"

"Master God of Cookery had a miscarriage?"

The rumors became more and more bizarre again, and Ye Gui was speechless for a while.

"Today we are going to experience the most legendary Taiping Hotel in Zhonghai for a day!"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone was really attracted by the topic.

"Fuck, Taiping Hotel!"

"I remember this hotel is a very famous and legendary hotel in China Overseas with a long history!"

"I thought the God of Cookery had forgotten this restaurant!"

Everyone joked.

Ye Gui smiled and said: "Why wouldn't I go? The chef in charge of this restaurant used to be a member of the dark cooking world, but after being defeated by Grandma Liu, Senior Sun and others, he abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, and started to behave accordingly.

It’s time to eat!" www.bǐqυgetν.℃ǒm

ah?

Everyone was shocked, and some even talked about turning black.

After all, I had heard them talk about the dark culinary world before, and I always found it very scary.

"Lord God of Cookery, will something happen?"

"Could it be that the reason why the restaurant tastes good is because it comes from the dark culinary world?"

Ye Gui laughed loudly: "You are worrying too much. He is completely fine and has even attended the state banquet, so you can rest assured!"

Having said that, everyone's worries were finally relieved.

Soon, he came out of the hotel and took a taxi directly to Taiping Hotel.

This place is located on Jinling Road in Zhonghai, and the location is very good.

You can overlook the Huangpu River and the bustling Jinling Road.

"The predecessor of the China Overseas Pacific Hotel is the Chinachem Hotel, also known as the Sassoon Building. The Chinachem Hotel was designed by a Jewish businessman and is a Chicago School Gothic building. When it was first built, it had twelve floors and a height of 77 meters.

The Taiping Hotel is divided into the South Tower and the North Tower. The South Tower was built before the North Tower. The predecessor of the South Tower was a three-story building called the Central Hotel. The Central Hotel was built in 1854 as a catering restaurant in Zhonghai at that time.

The hotel was bought by a British businessman in 1903 and renamed Huizhong Hotel.

In 1906, the Huizhong Hotel was expanded. The original three-story building was expanded to seven stories, making it the tallest building in China Overseas at that time. After the Huizhong Hotel was completed, it had the earliest two elevators and a roof garden in China Overseas.

Because it was designed and built by the British, the building is in the style of the British Renaissance, and part of the building uses concrete structure, which also pioneered the concrete construction of China Shipping."

Ye Gui is very familiar with the history of Taiping Hotel because he once dined here and competed with others on his cooking skills.

"We have hosted countless celebrities and politicians here. For example, Chaplin lived here, Mr. Zhou also lived here, and now many celebrities also choose to live here!"

“The presidential suite on the top floor costs RMB 100,000 per night, not counting the 15% service fee!”

Everyone suddenly took a breath of cold air: "One hundred thousand a night is my two years' salary!"

"My darling, what kind of family do you want to live in such an expensive house for one night?"

"It's terrible, this is too luxurious!"

Ye Gui shook his head: "Then I don't know who has stayed there. Anyway, I can't afford it. But the establishment of the Taiping Hotel is actually a humiliating history of Daxia. The establishment of the Taiping Hotel can be said to be the beginning of the Xia Kingdom at that time.

It is related to the social environment. At the end of the 19th century, various countries began to invade the Xia Kingdom, carry out economic plunder and capital export. After the signing of the Treaty of Shimonoseki, the entry of foreign capital into the Xia Kingdom became 'legal', and the scope of China Shipping's foreign loans expanded."

"At the same time, the level of Western architecture improved, and architects believed that Xia State was profitable, so they carried out architectural designs in Xia State's big cities. The famous 'Far East First Building' was born in such an environment.

"

Everyone is a little angry when they think of that humiliating history.

"It's all the fault of the Manchu Qing people for harming the country!"

"Especially that old woman, she single-handedly set Daxia back hundreds of years!"

"At that time, it was said that her grave was blown up and her body was exposed in the wilderness. All I can say is that it was a great job!"

"But fortunately, the teachers are amazing, and the ancestors are so great. They led us out and then stood up!"

"Yes, revolutionary martyrs will be immortal!"

"It is because of them that we live in a peaceful country!"

Everyone was shouting and shouting, and everyone was very excited.

On Ye Gui's side, he had already arrived at the entrance of Taiping Hotel.

When we arrived at the door, there were already many people waiting for something.

"It seems like some important people are coming over today, so we'll just sneak in!"

He said something, and when everyone was preparing to go in without paying attention, someone suddenly said: "Master God of Cookery, why don't you go through the main entrance!"

Ye Gui: "???"
