Chapter 5 Southerners first arrive in autumn Kyoto
When Zhang Yunqing completed the entry formalities at Western Construction Company and left the company, he found that it was already dark.
Today's interview took a full day.
Zhang Yunqing felt very tired and wanted to find a place to settle down first, so he walked north along the road and watched as he walked.
The wind blew loudly in my ears, the temperature was more than 10 degrees lower than during the day, and it felt very cold.
Dragging my luggage and carrying my computer bag, I walked nearly 800 meters before I saw a "Go Home Inn".
Zhang Yunqing saw that this was the closest to the company, so he decided to stay here temporarily.
After registering and paying with my ID card at the front desk, I received a 301 room card and quickly arrived at the room.
Zhang Yunqing was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, thinking about the current situation and how to solve the problem of food, housing and transportation that he had to face every day.
According to the success of today's interview, the probation period is one month, which means that you have to live in Kyoto for at least one month. It is estimated that if you continue to live in this home inn, it will cost more than 200 yuan a day, which is close to 7,000 yuan a month, and the remaining salary will be
Not much left.
You should rent a house closer to the company, which can reduce the cost of living.
It just so happens that the company has given me a day tomorrow to deal with the matter of settling in.
Zhang Yunqing also thought for a while about what to pay attention to, what to care about and what to improve in future work.
Almost an hour later, Zhang Yunqing felt much refreshed and his stomach was growling. He had to go out to have some dinner and take a look at the Kyoto night.
Zhang Yunqing had just arrived in this new metropolis. Before he had time to feel the taste of the metropolis, he hurriedly attended a whole day of interviews.
Now when I came to the street, it was after eight o'clock in the evening. I saw cars on the road one after another. It was impossible to see the end at a glance. It took a few minutes to move forward a few steps. This speed was faster than walking.
The speed is about the same.
There are radiant works on the outside of each building, which look bright and bright against the silhouette lights. These high-rise buildings give people a pleasant and comfortable feeling.
There are Chengdu snacks, Chongqing noodles, Lanzhou noodles, northern restaurants, etc. on the street.
Zhang Yunqing naturally walked into a northern restaurant, wanting to taste what northern food tastes like.
As soon as Zhang Yunqing chose a table and sat down, a waiter from the store came up and asked: "Sir, have you ordered anything?"
Zhang Yunqing replied casually: "I just arrived and haven't had time to order yet. Please bring me the menu to order."
The store waiter said: "Please come here and order."
"What, there's no menu?" Zhang Yunqing asked a little confused.
The store waiter smiled and said: "Sir, our store does not provide menu orders, but we provide sample orders of dishes. Please come with me."
The waiter pointed to a long transparent cabinet and said to Zhang Yunqing: "These are the dishes in our restaurant. Just tell me which dish you like and register it."
Zhang Yunqing pointed dizzily at a meat dish, a vegetarian dish, and a soup dish. The key was that there was no menu and he couldn't pronounce the names. So, he could only talk by looking at the pictures and finishing with his fingers.
The waiter reminded: "Sir, do you need rice?"
Zhang Yunqing replied: "If necessary, bring me two bowls of rice. By the way, isn't rice provided for free here?"
The waiter in the store replied with a surprised expression: "Sir, in our restaurants in the Kyoto area, rice is generally not free. It needs to be ordered separately according to the needs of the guests. This is your order plate No. 32, please take it.
Find a seat with the menu number and sit down. After the kitchen prepares your dish, we will deliver it to your seat according to the menu number." At this time, the waiter in the store also realized that the gentleman in front of him must have just arrived in Kyoto.
, I am not familiar with many of the local customs here, so I will explain them more clearly.
Zhang Yunqing waited for about 20 minutes before the food he ordered was delivered.
The meat dishes are on a big plate, the vegetarian dishes are also on a big plate, and the soup dishes are served in a small basin.
I estimated before ordering that the portions of two dishes and one soup from my hometown were just enough for me to eat. Now the portions of these dishes and soup are at least four times the size of the dishes from my hometown.
Zhang Yunqing thanked Kyoto Restaurant from the bottom of his heart for its sincerity, as it was quite satisfying in terms of portion size.
Zhang Yunqing tasted the meat dishes, but they were not spicy and had a strong salty taste, which is equivalent to the feeling of pouring the salt shaker into the dishes in hometown dishes; he tasted the vegetarian dishes, which were salty; he also tasted the soup, which had the same taste, with a salty taste.
Heavy.
Zhang Yunqing knew that he had encountered a dietary difference, and he estimated that it would take a long time to adapt to this problem.
Finally, after eating about 20% of the dishes, Zhang Yunqing waved to the waiter and said, "Pay the bill."
"Here, sir, your meal cost is 135 yuan." The waiter said.
After Zhang Yunqing paid for the meal, he returned along the original route and returned to Room 301 of the "Go Home Inn" to rest.
In the middle of the night, Zhang Yunqing was in a daze. She always felt uncomfortable. She felt a little like having trouble breathing. She woke up several times in the middle of the night. She got up and turned on the light several times to check, but she couldn't find the cause.
At 8 o'clock the next morning, Zhang Yunqing's alarm rang.
After being woken up by the alarm, the uncomfortable feeling was very clear. My nose was blocked, and it was so serious that I couldn't breathe at all.
After cleaning, it was found that the nose was full of clots.
In Zhang Yunqing's decades of life, there has never been a situation like this where he was fine the first day and then had such a serious problem with his body after waking up one night.
Is there a serious illness? This is too scary.
He thought to himself that he might as well finish washing up early and go downstairs to ask the front desk if they could help find out the cause.
Taking advantage of the fact that it was still early, Zhang Yunqing hurriedly went to the front desk to ask the waiter about the situation.
There were two waiters at the front desk. Zhang Yunqing chose the one who seemed a little more free and asked: "Hello, I have a question to ask."
The waiter replied: "Okay, what is your room number?"
"My room number is 301"
"What is your name, please?"
"Zhang Yunqing"
"Okay, it checked correctly. What questions do you want to ask?" the waiter asked politely.
"It's like this. Before I checked into your hotel yesterday, my body was normal. I didn't have a fever or a cold. I didn't feel any sick except for some tiredness." Zhang Yunqing said.
"Ah, this is normal, Mr. Zhang." The waiter said with a puzzled look. She couldn't feel anything wrong with this guest.
"But when I woke up this morning, my nose was full of blood clots, quite a lot.
In my lifetime, I have never seen this phenomenon in my mind.
I was thinking that since my body is fine and normal, could it be that the decoration items or other inappropriate items in your hotel room could cause diseases in the bodies of our guests?"
Zhang Yunqing looked at the hotel waiter with an expression of dissatisfaction with the hotel and said.
The waiter rubbed his face with his hands, rubbed his hands again, and thought for almost a minute before saying: "Mr. Zhang, that's what I think. If it's like you said, there is a problem with the items in our hotel room that caused your health problems.
In case of disease.
In addition to you, there may be other guests staying in our room 301 who may get sick.
But our current hotel has been operating here for at least 10 years. Room 301 is basically full, and some of the longest-staying guests have stayed for more than 15 days.
After so many guests have stayed in this room, I have never heard of your situation happening.
So I understand it shouldn’t be our hotel’s problem. It should be caused by other reasons.”
Zhang Yunqing nodded and said: "I think what you said makes sense. I flew to Kyoto from 1,600 kilometers away yesterday. Is this the reason? I flew too far?"
"Haha, you are so funny, Mr. Zhang, no matter how far you fly, you usually won't get sick.
By the way, where did you fly from?" the service asked easily.
Finally, the guest understood that it was not the hotel's problem that caused the guest's illness, and the waiter was quite satisfied with himself from the bottom of his heart.
"I flew to Kyoto from the capital of Nishikawa Province early yesterday morning. After arriving, I worked very nervously for a day, and I felt quite tired when I got here." Zhang Yunqing replied.
"That's right, Mr. Zhang, I think I can understand the reason.
Because you previously emphasized that your situation occurred in Room 301, I first looked for the specific cause of illness in Room 301, without considering the issue of where you came from.
In our ten-year-old store, if someone like you checks into a hotel when your health is normal, but becomes uncomfortable after staying for a period of time, or even has a nosebleed, come to our front desk to inquire about the reason.
According to the records, there are more than 10 cases every year. So your situation should be normal." The waiter replied with a smile.
"It's normal. But I don't know what caused it. Do we have nosebleeds like this all the time we live here? Is there a solution?" Zhang Yunqing asked nervously. He, now he is afraid that there is no solution.
If you continue to do this, you may have nosebleeds every day, and you may not have to go to work in less than a month.
"Mr. Zhang, it's like this.
Your situation can be solved based on our hotel's statistical records.
Most of them are southerners who come to the north for the first time. In serious cases, some northerners have been in the south for a long time. If they suddenly return to the north, they may feel uncomfortable and have trouble breathing at night. In severe cases, they may even have trouble breathing the next morning.
There are nosebleeds.”
The waiter said, "After consulting relevant experts, the general meaning is: the climate in the south is humid and has sufficient oxygen, the temperature is slightly higher, the wind volume is small, and the evaporation is small; the climate in the north is dry, the oxygen content is slightly lower than in the south, and the temperature is much lower than in the south. The level of wind
It is strong and windy most of the time, and evaporation is much greater than in the south.
Therefore, when southerners move to the north, they have the problem of climate incompatibility. The solution is:
1. Sprinkle an appropriate amount of water in the room where you rest. If the conditions are better, you can use a humidifier to completely solve the humidity problem.
2. When you are new here, maintain an appropriate amount of exercise and be sure to avoid strenuous exercise.
3. If there are comrades who drink, do not take a hot bath in the north when you are drunk.
Some serious cases even lost their lives because of Article 3."
After listening to the waiter's explanation, Zhang Yunqing was quite happy. The second difficulty for a southerner coming to live in the north had been solved.
"Okay. I understand. I'm sorry. I blamed your hotel for my physical problems before. It seems that this is a common sense problem in life that caused my own problems. Thank you for your patient explanation. Goodbye."
Zhang Yunqing smiled and said hello to the waiter and walked out of the hotel.
