Chapter 36: Artistic Talent

After the waiter left happily with the 5 pounds, Osmond looked at Corporal Lynn with wide eyes and said in surprise: Corporal, you actually gave him 5 pounds, which is equivalent to half a month's salary!"

"Is this to help the poor?"

"In ordinary small restaurants, the tip is only a few shillings, and you gave so much." Osmond looked at Corporal Linn and said.

"Osmond, when did you find out about the waiter's salary?" Chu Long interjected out of curiosity.

"I overheard those waiters discussing wages yesterday." Osmond looked at the waiter and several other waiters walking away, and said to Chu Long.

"A good friend of mine is a waiter in a hotel, so I know very well about the waiter job that requires looking at people's faces every day, cleaning until midnight, and getting ready before the customers." Corporal Lin En heard that O

After Simon's words, he squinted his eyes and said with a look of reminiscence on his face. It could be seen from his face that he had a very deep memory, but he didn't know whether it was his friend's experience or his.

········

While Osmond and Corporal Lynn were chatting, the waiter brought the milk cereal that Corporal Lynn ordered. Chu Long sat quietly, eating breakfast, listening to Osmond and Corporal Lynn chatting. Today’s breakfast

Cinnamon rolls and muffin bread were newly added in the past two days. I heard that a new chef has arrived. Chu Long has not eaten them for a long time. The last time he ate them in memory was in the United States!

Eating cinnamon rolls, this touched Chu Long's deep memory of the flower rolls his mother made for him when he was a child. They looked very similar, had a strong butter aroma, and were a bit heavier than the flower rolls. However, compared to the cinnamon rolls, Chu

Dragon himself prefers muffins.

There is a layer of spinach on the muffin bread, followed by fried bacon, and a layer of eggs on top, which is somewhat similar to soft-boiled eggs. They call this method eggs Benedict, and finally it is topped with hollandaise sauce.

Chu Long discovered muffin bread yesterday. As a professional foodie, he still has some resistance to delicious food, but he still wants to know how to make it. So he deliberately waited outside the kitchen last night, and the chef waiting to get off work asked him about it.

Regarding the muffin bread, the chef said that although the muffin bread is made of British style

Muffin, but this breakfast dish is indeed American. In the earliest times, muffin bread was also called English muffin. It was made from bread, with grains and a small amount of accessories added, but later American chefs came to taste it.

Later, the muffin bread was improved and became what is now on the table in front of Chu Long.

The chef told Chu Long about the origin of muffin bread, and at the same time handed over the recipe to Chu Long, and even promised Chu Long that he could demonstrate it to Chu Long himself if he had time.

Breakfast was spent in the chat between Osmond and Corporal Lynn. Chu Long played the role of a listener and a foodie. After finishing the breakfast he ordered, he ordered grilled sausage and yogurt cereal again.

"Where is Mr. Selt?" Chu Long and the others asked strangely after they had had breakfast for a long time and had not seen Ya Heng appear yet.

"Ah! I forgot to tell you. He left a message at the front desk saying that the goods destined for the hotel had arrived, but there was an error in the quantity. He went to the store to confirm the condition of the goods. He said there was no need to wait for him, and he would go to the tableware himself.

From the store." After hearing Chu Long's words, Corporal Lin En seemed to have regained his memory and told him what the front desk told him.

"Corporal, people say that a fish's memory lasts seven seconds. You are better than a fish." Chu Long looked at Corporal Lin En and said.

"Chu, you are wrong. A biologist in the United States proved that fish have memory, but it is common for a month or two. The Times once reported it in a small page." Corporal Lin En was not angry at Chu Long's sarcasm.

, come up with strong scientific evidence to 'fight back'.

Chu Long rolled his eyes and said nothing. He ate the rest of his breakfast and was obviously choked!

"Then what are our plans next?" Osmond obviously felt that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, and took the initiative to ask the topic.

"Mr. Selt, I don't know when we will arrive at the tableware store. We can't just wait somewhere!" Osmond said again.

"Osmond, do you have any suggestions?" Corporal Lynn said.

"Continuing the trip to London that was not completed yesterday." Osmond looked at Chu Long and Corporal Linn and expressed his thoughts.

"Okay! I have no objection." Corporal Lin En said and looked at Chu Long.

"I don't know Mr. Selter's travel time, so just listen to Osmond!" Chu Long thought for a moment and said.

After breakfast, Chu Long and the others went to the famous British Museum on Russell Street in London. In the British Museum, Chu Long saw cultural relics from various countries with names and annotations, ranging from unique books to statues and ornaments. Inside Chu Long

Long also saw several ancient Chinese cultural relics, but the era markings were not very clear.

Osmond told Chu Long that none of the treasures here were treasures. The hall marked "No Entry" deep inside the museum was where the treasures were stored, and the ban could not be lifted now. There were patrols 24 hours a day.

There are intermittent inspections and patrols, and the defense is quite tight.

Chu Long and the other two spent an hour walking around the museum. They just looked around briefly without paying much attention. The main reason was that Corporal Lin En really couldn't arouse any interest in these collections and kept cheering.

, it really affected the mood of Chu Long and Osment when they visited the museum. If they were not in the mood, they couldn't stand it any longer, so they went in and out quickly.

After leaving the museum, Osmond once again suggested going to Greenwich Park. Since there was nowhere else to go, the group took a carriage and set off again.

While sitting in the carriage and chatting, Corporal Lynn said that next to Greenwich Park is the Royal Naval Academy. His friend is a teacher there and would occasionally visit him. During the chat, the carriage took the three of them to Thames.

Greenwich Park near the river.

After getting off the carriage, Chu Long saw many students wearing school uniforms. In fact, they were called school uniforms, but to Chu Long, they looked more like military uniforms. Corporal Linn said that students at the Royal Naval Academy generally only wear this 'military uniform' style uniform.

, only during celebrations will they wear the 'dress' style military uniforms customized for them.

The three of Chu Long walked into Greenwich Park. Students from the Naval Academy could be seen everywhere. Corporal Lin En said that many students would come here to fall in love, and there were also students who sketched here. Even though it is a Naval Academy, they must also know etiquette and be good at some arts.

Talented. Regardless

Whether it is the Naval Academy or the Navy, there are various banquets every year. At this time, you need to show off your talents. Dancing, playing the piano, and painting are all programs to add to the fun. The higher-ups will see it and they will most likely remember you.

There may be opportunities for promotion in the future!

In Chu Long's memory, even in the high-tech era of another world, there would still be banquets, and banquets were places where people of all kinds showed off their talents. However, Chu Long rarely went to such occasions.

His background is not low, and secondly, the banquets he can be invited to are too high-value, and they are held infrequently.

Note ①: The shilling is the old auxiliary currency unit of the United Kingdom. In Chinese currency, it is equivalent to a "corner". The United Kingdom was the first country in the world to use the shilling as its currency. It was abolished during the British currency reform in 1971.

One pound = 20 shillings, 1 shilling = 12 pence.
