Chu Long was lying on the bed thinking about his experiences during this period. He unconsciously touched the jade pendant around his neck and touched this jade pendant. This was what Chu Long had left on him after he was rescued, except for the slightly damaged clothes and
When the ship was about to capsize, his mother opened the safe in the office in the main cabin, took out a small and exquisite ring, and put it on her thumb (it could be said that it was stuck in hard).
.
Even the clothes he was wearing were ones that Yaheng found suitable clothes for Chu Long when he was sleeping and put them in the wardrobe.
Chu Long leaned on the edge of the bed, took out the jade pendant from his clothes, put it on the palm of his hand, and looked at it quietly. This is a piece of mutton-fat white jade, which is the best quality of pure white jade. It is translucent and pure, white and flawless, like condensed fat.
Generally, it appears pure white and translucent under strong light, with a hazy foggy feel. The jade pendant is carved into a bottle shape, just like the mutton-fat jade bottle held by the legendary Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Looking at the bottle-shaped jade pendant in his hand, a beautiful woman with short black hair appeared in Chu Long's memory. She had light eyebrows and a pair of big, watery eyes. She had a medium-sized mouth, tall and tall.
Wearing a pair of black glasses with gold rims on the bridge of her nose. This is the mother in Chu Long's memory.
This jade pendant was given to Chu Long by her mother as a birthday gift when she was a child. This jade pendant was also given to Chu Long on Chu Long’s birthday. Looking at this jade pendant, many things appeared in front of Chu Long’s eyes.
Many memory fragments, every meal when I was a child, every time I bought clothes, every time I was trained, all kinds of memories appeared in front of my eyes, and my eyes became moist without knowing it.
The hand holding the jade pendant wears the only remaining ring related to his parents. This ring was worn by his parents on his hand when the shipwreck occurred. It is said that this ring is stored in the bank.
One of the important verification items for unlocking the treasure inside. The jade pendant and ring are the only items left to me by my parents. Looking at them is like seeing my own parents.
After thinking about it, Chu Long closed his eyes and fell into sleep in his longing.
The night is very late, and there is a faint moisture in the air, like fog. The faint light of the lighthouse in the distance makes the night in Dover even more silent. The moonlight shines through the windows and falls on the bed.
On Chu Long, who had fallen asleep on the bed.
Winter mornings are not as fresh as spring mornings; they are not as bright as summer; they are not as refreshing as autumn; they are just cold. Chu Long got up very early, and almost no one got up in the hotel, only Fei Qi, the doorman, got up.
Early in the morning, he opened the hotel door and sat at the reception desk opposite the hotel's main entrance, drinking tea he brought from home.
Chu Long walked around the hotel and found nothing to be busy with, so he returned to the room. Chu Long returned to the room and leaned on the bedside, holding a book he found in the closet and reading with gusto. Chu Long probably
This copy of "Great Expectations" was originally placed here by Yaheng's younger brother.
Chu Long read for a while, took the teapot and made a pot of black tea. He walked to the sofa and sat on the sofa, reading and drinking tea.
"Dong dong dong!" There was a knock on the door, and a loud voice came from outside the door: "Beloved one, can I come in?"
"Okay, please come in." Chu Long took a sip of black tea and said to the door.
Brooke opened the door and walked in. Seeing Chu Long drinking tea, he walked directly to the sofa and sat down. He picked up an empty teacup on the table, poured a cup of tea and drank it. After drinking, he said
: "Breakfast is ready downstairs, I'm here to ask you to have breakfast."
"Okay! Let's go down then!" Chu Long stood up, stretched, closed the door, and walked toward the restaurant with Brooke.
There were not many people in the restaurant in the early morning, and there were only one or two people chatting while eating breakfast. Sitting in the seats in the restaurant, Chu Long and Brooke quickly ordered breakfast, and the two started chatting without a word.
It didn't take long for breakfast to be ready. Chu Long and Brooke brought breakfast to the dining table respectively. Brooke opened the lid of the dinner plate. On the dinner plate were placed a poached egg, fried bacon, and baked sausage.
, a piece of toast with jam. Then another bowl was brought, mixed with milk and added
Oatmeal with fruit. Finally, a glass of milk was brought. Chu Long and Brook ordered basically the same thing, except that the jam toast was replaced by a Danish roll. In Chu Long’s opinion, the Danish roll looked too long.
It is very similar to Chinese breakfast fried dough sticks and tastes good. I often order it for breakfast.
Breakfast was eaten very quickly. While Chu Long and the two were eating breakfast, the restaurant gradually became more crowded. The two chatted about wine-related content while eating breakfast, making the time pass very quickly.
Brooke finished breakfast before Chu Long. He said he wanted to check the wine in the wine store and asked Chu Long to wait for him in the room after breakfast. After Brooke left for a while, Chu Long finished the delicious breakfast and returned to the room.
I sat on a chair and read for a while. I finished the chapter I had not finished just now, put a bookmark on the page I had finished, closed the book, got dressed and went to the first floor.
In the atrium of the first floor, Chu Long found Brooke, who was wearing a brown and blue cotton coat and a brown scarf, standing there introducing something to a French man. Chu Long waved to Brooke and said hello.
After he nodded, he walked to the bar, found a booth and sat down to wait for him. He saw a copy of The Times lying on the sofa in front of the booth, so he picked it up and read it.
Chu Long saw a familiar name in the British column of "The Times", Harmsworth. This name was told to Chu Long by Ya Heng when he was reading the newspaper. Harmsworth can be said to be the name of the British newspaper.
He was promoted to a peak figure in his career. Ya Heng said that he admired Harmsworth very much. In the words of later generations, he was Ya Heng's idol.
The newspaper used a large section of the British column to introduce Harmsworth and his "Northern Rock Newspaper Group", the origin of the name "Northern Rock Newspaper Group", and what Harmsworth and his brothers meant to Britain.
The contribution of the newspaper industry, and reports on Harmsworth's recent situation.
"Shall we leave now?" Brooke came over and said.
"Have you settled your matter?" Chu Long turned his attention to Brooke and said.
"It's ready. The Frenchman asked me just now if I had any good cocktail recommendations, so I recommended yours to him."
"Oh, let's set off now!"
"good."
Chu Long and Brooke left the hotel and walked on the street looking at all kinds of people. They thought that this place was very close to London and it was the best choice for both trade and war.
Chu Long and Brooke were walking around the town and said hello to people they met. In the town, Brooke spent a lot of "time" with Chu Long's camera, and occasionally asked passers-by to take photos of the two of them.
