Chapter 15 Lin Hai
After dinner, the two took a bus back to the hotel to rest.
It will be 2:30 pm, and eating in a high-end Chinese restaurant always takes more time.
"Let's go to the hotel gym later, otherwise you won't be able to eat at night!" Zhang Da looked at his bulging belly weakly, "I haven't seen Brother Hai for several years, and I don't eat anything when I meet. Those who don't know think I don't give him face."
"What kind of gym is going to? Isn't it nice to go to the swimming pool?" Fan Jiang collapsed in his seat. "The swimming pool at the Peninsula Hotel is so cool."
Zhang Da looked disdainful: "Take it down, you are a land duck, do you want to go swimming?"
Fan Jiang was unhappy: "I just like to soak in shallow water, do you care about me?"
After returning to the hotel noisy, the "suffering" two people fell on the bed one after another.
It was like this, and the two of them kept silent.
"Aren't you going to swim?"
"Then you go run first!"
…
Finally, Zhang Daxian relied on his willpower to break free from the shackles. Seeing that Fan Jiang had no intention of getting up, he left the room alone and came to the hotel gym.
After running on the treadmill for almost an hour, Zhang Da returned to the room.
When Zhang Da opened the door, he found Fan Jiang taking a happy bath in the bathroom.
"Is that how you swim?"
Standing at the bathroom door, Zhang Da asked with a smile.
"Shut up, I'm thinking about life."
Fan Jiang closed his eyes and looked like he had seen through the world.
Zhang Da took out his cell phone, deliberately turned on the flashlight and took a photo. Then he went to the shower room to take a shower amid the curse of Fan Jiang who had instantly broken his skills.
After dressing neatly, the two sat on the Rolls-Royce again.
On the evening of the weekend, Shencheng finally got blocked. It took the driver half an hour to deliver the two to the destination.
Xinrongji Hotel is located in Beixuan Mansion on Nanyang Road.
This is the former residence of the Bei family.
As soon as the two entered the hotel, a waiter wearing a robe in the Republic of China came up and took Zhang Da and the others to visit the hotel.
Unlike European-style buildings, the decoration in the restaurant is obviously more Chinese-style.
After walking two steps in, antique bird cages, large dressing mirrors, and photos of the Bei family can be seen everywhere. Many bookcases and display cabinets are now occupied by the Moutai "family".
Zhang Da walked around and found that he didn't see the small Michelin sign, so he asked the robe waiter who called himself "the housekeeper".
The housekeeper smiled and replied: "Sir, the restaurant of our Shanghai Plaza store this year was our Nanyang Road store. Unfortunately, our Nanyang Road store failed to get a Michelin star rating."
Zhang Da felt a little embarrassed: "Oh, that's how it is, I'm sorry, I made a mistake."
The housekeeper smiled brightly: "No, we also hope to use your good words to get Michelin star rating next year."
When he entered the private room, a man was already sitting inside, it was Lin Hai.
Zhang Da looked at the other party and found that it was very different from when he met a few years ago.
The gray hair has been dyed back, the ring on his hand is no longer worn, and the luxury goods that are competing for beauty have also turned into a black shirt.
The only thing that can show the owner's wealth is the Richard Miller watch on Lin Hai's wrist.
"Brother Hai!"
"Zhang Da, I haven't seen each other for several years," Lin Hai stood up and walked to Zhang Da, patted his shoulder, "Okay, now my shrimp soldiers and crab generals are here again."
"Haha, Brother Hai still remembers this joke."
Zhang Da also smiled and recalled the scenes of his childhood.
When they were young, every time the three of them had conflicts, Zhang Da and Fan Jiang would work together to deal with Lin Hai, but due to their age gap, they were often no match.
After Lin Hai saw the Three Kingdoms, he nicknamed Zhang Da and Fan Jiang as "shrimp soldiers and crab generals", and said that they were not doing serious business as a whole and just caused trouble for him, Lin.
"Remember, after arriving in Citiland, no one will play with me anymore." Lin Hai sighed a little, "Sit down quickly, sit down and chat."
The three of them took the seat. After asking Zhang Da and Fan Jiang if they were not chewy, Lin Hai asked if he could leave the food. Seeing that the two little brothers had no objection, Lin Hai nodded in agreement.
Zhang Da and Lin Hai started chatting. Although they hadn't seen each other for several years, they had no strangers to each other. They talked about interesting childhood stories in laughter and joy.
The waiter put fruit and almond slices to Zhang Da and Fan Jiang. When the three of them were chatting happily, they did not introduce the dishes.
After chatting for a while, Lin Hai pointed at Zhang Da's wrist: "Zhang Da, are you doing well? You've put on the Chinese calendar."
"Well, Brother Hai, I made a lot of money in investment..." Zhang Da briefly introduced his situation and then asked, "Brother Hai, I heard from Fan Jiang that you are in the high-end luxury jewelry business now?"
"That's right, it's actually just helping the family. It's okay to rely on the parents," Lin Hai smiled. "I can't compare to you, I'll start from scratch."
Zhang Da said modestly as usual: "No, Brother Hai, I'm lucky."
"You are too modest," Lin Hai smiled and shook his head, pointing at Fan Jiang, "Look at you, can you learn something good from Zhang Da, and don't interact with your friends all day long."
Fan Jiang was stunned while eating the fruit: "No, brother, my friends are okay too."
Zhang Da also looked at Fan Jiang curiously: "What kind of friend? Have you ever heard of it?"
"Just a few rich second-generations with high expectations and low skills," Lin Hai said to Zhang Da. "I don't go to work, I just play outside every day. It's not reliable anyway."
Fan Jiang whispered: "Take it down, brother, you were not like this a few years ago."
"Hey! You kid..."
Lin Hai glared and Fan Jiang retreated again.
Seeing Fan Jiang being defeated, Zhang Da couldn't help laughing and took the opportunity to look at the environment of the private room.
The roofs of the old houses are very high. Zhang Da looked at them and felt that they might be four or five meters high.
The picture of "Two Dragons Playing with Beads" engraved on the ceiling is lifelike, and there is also a dark room without a door in the private room.
After saying hello to Lin Hai, Zhang Da walked towards the small room curiously.
The waiter at the door of the private room immediately followed someone and introduced to Zhang Da:
"Sir, this private room was originally Mr. Bei Zuyi's living room. Because Mr. Bei Zuyi was once the president of China Banking Corporation, he often receives some friends from the financial industry in this dark room.
There was originally a secret door in the dark room, and some guests could leave directly from the secret door, but now it has been blocked."
"Oh, thank you."
Sitting on a chair in the dark room and looking at the fruits placed on the small table next to the chair, Zhang Da sighed from the bottom of his heart:
‘This detail is in place!’
There was also a door in the dark room. It opened the bathroom of the room. Zhang Da simply went in and washed his hands and sat back on the dining table.
At this time, Fan Jiang asked, "Zhang Da, do you want to drink Kuole?"
"...Drink!" Zhang Da was a little hesitant at first, but thought that he had been running for an hour today and drinking some Coke should be fine, so he nodded and agreed.
So Fan Jiang said to the waiter: "Two cups of Coke."
"Okay, sir, do you want to add ice and lemon?"
"Yeah, I want it all."
Oh, I seem to have heard this at noon.
So, Zhang Da remembered the 50-a-cup coke in Tangge and asked the waiter casually: "Hello, let me ask you how much does a coke cost?"
"25 yuan a cup."
Oh, it's quite "cheap".
