Li Cheng booked two triple rooms and a single suite at the hotel, which meant that the team members would stay in the triple room and Xue Chen would stay in the single suite. However, Xue Chen strongly refused and asked Li Cheng to cancel the offer for a night.
A single suite costing RMB 1,000 was booked into a triple room.
After placing their luggage and briefly washing up, the group left the hotel and went to a nearby Sichuan restaurant for dinner.
After returning to the hotel after dinner, Li Cheng handed the keys to the Mercedes-Benz business car to Xue Chen for him to use these days. Xue Chen took the keys without saying anything, just nodded.
After Li Cheng left, Xue Chen and others returned to the guest room. Zhou Qiang sat on the soft bed with a comfortable look on his face, looking very satisfied.
"You guys should rest first. I'm going out for a walk. If anything happens, just call me." Xue Chen saw that it was still early outside and there was nothing to do while staying in the hotel, so he wanted to go out for a walk and take a look.
The scenery of Lanning is not a waste of time.
After going downstairs and leaving the hotel, Xue Chen did not drive the car left by Li Cheng, but walked and strolled slowly along the sidewalk, admiring the surrounding scenery.
Just as Xue Chen left the hotel, a burgundy BMW Z4 parked in front of the hotel, and Xu Ming and Jessica got out of the car.
How could Xu Ming take a taxi when traveling with his American companion? He had already reached an agreement with the car rental company before boarding the plane and rented the car and delivered it to the airport in advance. The rent of 1,000 yuan per day was just a drop in the bucket for him.
. And what he told Jessica was that a friend of his who had business cooperation drove it for him for free, which sounded more respectable than renting a car.
After entering the hotel, Xu Ming reluctantly took the keys to the two single suites he had booked earlier. His original intention was to book a double suite so that the two of them could live in the same room, even though the distance was the same.
The goal of sharing the same bed is still far away, but at least I can watch the beautiful woman wake up from her sleep every day.
Unfortunately, Jessica declined. In order not to offend the beauty, Xu Ming had no choice but to book two rooms. He thought to himself that this time he came here to play without any interference and enjoy the beautiful scenery. He must seize the opportunity and try to make the two of them happy.
Human relationships go one step further.
When the two arrived at the door of the room, Xu Ming said with a smile: "Jessica, you must be tired during the journey. Go wash up and rest. I will see you later."
Jessica smiled at Xu Ming and nodded without saying anything. She opened the door and walked in. When he entered the room, he immediately dropped his luggage bag and sat in front of the computer. He turned on the computer and started searching.
She learned that Xue Chen came to Jiangdong Lanning this time, and it seemed that he was bringing people to participate in some e-sports competition, but she didn't know the details. In order not to alert the snake, he didn't bring the purple-gold box, but when Xue Chen came out
On the day of Haicheng, she felt that the Eye of God had also left Haicheng!
She searched the Internet and quickly found the information she wanted. When she saw a team called Excellence Team coming to Yunzhou Haicheng, she narrowed her eyes and immediately learned about this e-sports competition.
The schedule of the competition records the dates and times when outstanding teams will participate in the competition.
She saw a link to sell tickets online and immediately purchased the corresponding tickets. If she wanted to know Xue Chen's whereabouts, she had to find him first, and this was the simplest and only way. After she had done all this, she had just
After turning off the computer, Xu Ming knocked on the door.
As soon as Xu Ming entered the living room, he said with a smile: "Jessica, I have already learned about Lanning's famous tourist attractions..."
"No, I'm not going to travel, I want to go to the game." Jessica said in a light voice.
"Competition, what kind of competition?" Xu Ming was stunned for a moment.
"E-sports competition." Jessica added,
Xu Ming stood there blankly, looking at Jessica in disbelief. He was in a spartan mood. Didn't he agree to go out for fun? He had already fantasized many times about traveling with beautiful women to the mountains and rivers.
, when you get here, you tell me that you want to watch the Laoshizi e-sports competition?
The corner of his mouth twitched twice, and Xu Ming said with an embarrassed look: "Is there a competition here?"
"Yes, the first show will start tomorrow." Jessica returned.
"Oh, tomorrow, I'm afraid it's hard to buy tickets. They might have been sold out. I think we should go rafting in Jiuyun Mountain..." Xu Ming said hesitantly, but before he could finish his words, he was stopped by Jie.
Sika interrupted
"Don't worry about this, I have just bought the tickets online." Jessica's bright eyes flashed with determination. This time she must clear up the doubts in her heart!
After Xue Chen left the hotel, he walked all the way. Lanning is also a famous historical city. When he got here, it was natural to go to the antique city. It was a worthwhile trip. He asked passers-by and learned that Lanning not only has an antique
Street, there is also an antique city opened on the antique street, and it is not far from the hotel.
He walked for less than half an hour and arrived at the Antique Street. Compared with the Antique Street in Haicheng, the Antique Street here was much the same. The only difference was that there was a retro-style three-story building in the center of the Antique Street.
This antique city is built entirely of green bricks and green tiles, with thick eaves and pavilions. There are four nearly three-meter-high bluestone pillars on both sides of the door. It looks extraordinary. There are two unicorn statues on the left and right, which also have a unique flavor.
.
Obviously, this antique city is the center of antique trading in the entire Lanning City. The number of customers entering and exiting is far beyond that of other shops on Antique Street. It can be said that it is very prosperous.
After standing at the door and glancing at the gilt plaque with the five characters "Jinlong Antique City" written above his head, Xue Chen walked in. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a street-like corridor with shops on both sides.
Each shop is well decorated and has its own characteristics, either brilliant or retro. In addition to the shops, there are also some scattered stalls in the corners.
Xue Chen walked in the crowded antique city and did not enter the shops on both sides. He only occasionally stopped in front of the scattered stalls outside to take a look, but he never bent down.
Nowadays, even without the help of ancient jade, his appreciation of antiques has reached a very high level. I dare not say that he has surpassed those of the older generation, but he is still similar, so he can tell that they are selling at a glance.
As for the authenticity and quality of the things, until now, none of them were worthy of him bending down to hold them in his hands and appreciate them.
"Little brother, come and take a look? I have all the good stuff here." A man in his fifties, with a goatee and a very good appearance, smiled and waved to Xue Chen who was passing by.
"No, thank you." Xue Chen nodded politely.
When Xue Chen opened his mouth to speak, a few eyes in the crowd immediately turned over and fell on Xue Chen's face. They immediately glanced at Xue Chen's dress and appearance, and then those few people quietly communicated with their eyes.
They nodded to each other.
After walking around the antique city, Xue Chen didn't find anything good, except for fakes, or some crooked melons and cracked dates but sold for the price of Queen Mother Flat Peach, which made him very disappointed.
Looking at his watch, Xue Chen saw that it was already getting late. He turned around and walked towards the outside of the antique city, preparing to return to the hotel.
But when he walked to the gate of the Antique City, which has the largest flow of people, suddenly a man in his forties wearing gray clothes, holding a black bag in his hand, walked hurriedly towards the Antique City with his head lowered.
Xue Chen quickly dodged to the side and could have avoided it. However, the man in gray clothes also moved in his direction and bumped into his arms. Then he moved in a very exaggerated posture.
Falling backward.
Plop.
The man sat down on the marble floor and immediately raised his head, glared at Xue Chen, and asked loudly: "How can you hit someone if you don't have eyes when you walk?"
Xue Chen was about to step forward and help the man up, but when he heard the first words spoken by the man, he took back his steps and his eyes became cold.
When they saw this scene, the passers-by around them all turned around and looked at Xue Chen with pity, and some even shook their heads and sighed.
The man in gray clothes got up from the ground angrily. At the same time, his eyes never left Xue Chen's body, as if he was afraid that Xue Chen would escape.
After standing up, the man picked up the cloth bag in his hand, opened the bag and took a look, then roared: "You broke my baby!"
"Baby, what treasure?"
When I picked him up, I guess I saw that he was a foreigner and thought he was easy to bully.
Moreover, this touch of porcelain is really simple and crude. It makes no sense at all. It is forced to touch. Moreover, the acting is too exaggerated and not distracting at all.
"Look, this is a pastel vase from the Qianlong period passed down by my family, and it was smashed by you!" The man opened the mouth of the cloth bag in his hand and showed it to Xue Chen.
Xue Chen took a look and saw that there was indeed a pile of pink and purple broken porcelain pieces inside, and they were quite broken. The largest piece was only half the size of a palm, and the smaller one was no bigger than the top of a thumb. When he saw this pile of broken pieces, he
His eyes fluctuated for a moment, thoughtfully.
"You saw, my baby was smashed by you, what do you think I should do?" the man in gray clothes asked fiercely.
At this moment, there were already many passers-by watching, all of them watching indifferently without saying a word, as if they were used to it. Among them were some people standing at the innermost part of the crowd, forming a faint encirclement, blocking all paths.
Xue Chen woke up from his thoughts and asked calmly: "What do you think we should do?"
"What should I do? You broke my baby, of course you have to pay for it, otherwise you won't be able to leave!" The man stepped forward and glared, as if he wanted to scare Xue Chen and make the foreigner in front of him feel scared.
Xue Chen glanced back and asked in the same calm tone: "Oh, compensation, how much will it cost?"
When the man in gray clothes saw that Xue Chen was so talkative, he didn't argue at all about who hit him first. He thought to himself that he was the coward who was frightened. He thought about it and gritted his teeth and said: "Fifty thousand yuan, not fifty thousand.
Don't even think about leaving, this is a pastel from the Qianlong period."
"Qianlong pastels, fifty thousand..." Xue Chen nodded, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, implying mockery. (To be continued)
