Chapter 384: The Great Gap

Hong Kong.

It has always had the reputation of the Pearl of the Orient.

It is not only an inalienable territory of China, but also the financial center of Asia.

After the plane landed at Chek Lap Kok Airport, the Chinese and overseas delegations all looked excited.

Many young people have been yearning for the Pearl of the Orient for a long time.

So, as soon as they got off the plane, they took out their film cameras and took pictures non-stop.

Shen Lele bought a card digital camera before he came, although the pixel is not high, but it is more convenient, and he started to shoot non-stop from the time he got off the plane.

After everyone lined up and passed the customs, Hu Lao stared at the various signs in the arrival hall of the airport.

Xu Yiyang stepped forward and asked him, "Old Hu, what are you looking at?"

Hu Lao said: "I looked at how to get to the University of Hong Kong, and I heard that there was an airport bus, but I didn't know where to take it. ”

Xu Yiyang asked, "Is there no one at the University of Hong Kong who came to pick up the station?"

"Nope. Hu Lao shook his head and said, "Our official exchange time is Monday, and we will go directly to HKU on Monday morning." ”

Xu Yiyang asked in surprise: "Go to HKU on Monday morning, where are we going now?"

"It's also going to HKU. Hu Lao said: "The hotel booked by the school in advance is near the University of Hong Kong, so let's go over and check in first, and take a break today and tomorrow to adjust." ”

Xu Yiyang was stunned: "Old Hu, let's go to the University of Hong Kong for exchanges, won't the University of Hong Kong give us a place to live?"

Hu Lao said: "The dormitory of the University of Hong Kong itself is relatively tight, and we have only been here for more than 20 days, so the University of Hong Kong does not provide accommodation, and this exchange activity, in the final analysis, we have climbed high, it is good to be invited, how can there be too many requirements." ”

Xu Yiyang sighed, from Hu Lao's words, he can probably understand that it seems that the conditions for this exchange should be relatively difficult.

Finally, after studying the location of the airport bus, a group of 20 people dragged their luggage and got on the bus to HKU.

The bus drove for nearly two hours before finally arriving at the port gate.

However, when everyone got out of the car, they couldn't go to HKU immediately, but followed Hu Lao and Director Li around the neighborhood twice, and only then did they find the hotel that the school had contacted in advance in an extremely dense residential area.

It is said to be a hotel, but the actual hardware conditions are the level of an old guest house in the county.

Director Li allocated a room, the hotel was full of double standard rooms, Shen Lele and Ning Ruolin had one room, and Xu Yiyang and a senior brother named Zhang Wei in the junior year were assigned to one room.

Xu Yiyang entered the room, a musty smell came to his face, Zhang Wei followed behind, and as soon as he entered the room, he sighed: "Damn, what the does this smell like, it's disgusting......"

Xu Yiyang found that this room was really small enough, so small that after putting the suitcase in, there was basically nowhere to put his feet.

With great difficulty, he bypassed the two small beds, which were only 80 centimeters wide, and pushed the windows open, so that the air in the room was a little better.

Zhang Wei said again at this time: "Oh, I don't even have a bathroom, why do I go to the toilet......

Xu Yiyang said: "It should be a public toilet." ”

Zhang Wei sighed and said, "This is not as good as a small hotel in the suburbs of Zhonghai!"

Xu Yiyang nodded approvingly.

The hotel in this old dilapidated building is almost no different from the slums in old Hong Kong movies, and the environment is really too inferior.

To put it mildly, this dilapidated hotel is not as good as the black hotel that caught fire in the light at that time.

At least the rooms in the dark hotel are much brighter than this!

Xu Yiyang came out of the room and found that the other classmates were also standing at the door of the room with a collapsed face, Shen Lele and Ning Ruolin were next door, and the two of them were standing at the door You look at me, I look at you.

Seeing Xu Yiyang come out, Shen Lele said with some grievances: "Xu Yiyang, there are a lot of cockroaches in our room, such a big one!"

Shen Lele said, and gestured with her fingers, the size of a cockroach she gestured to, and it was up to half of her fingers.

Xu Yiyang said: "It should be the American cockroach, and this thing is also available in Zhonghai." ”

Shen Lele asked in surprise: "Why haven't I seen it?"

Xu Yiyang said: "There should be no dormitory in the school. ”

Ning Ruolin sighed helplessly on the side and said, "Hey, this environment is far worse than the dormitory...... If I knew this was the case, I wouldn't have come to kill me. ”

Even Ning Ruolin, who has always been calm, also sighed like this, which shows how disappointed everyone is in their hearts.

Many students who originally wanted to experience the prosperity of Hong Kong suddenly found it difficult to accept this huge gap.

The most difficult thing to accept is the girls who are traveling with me.

Because they went to ask, there was no bathroom in the room of this hotel, and they had to go to the public toilet to go to the toilet.

Taking a shower is even more troublesome, there are only two shower rooms on the entire floor, each of which is only one square meter in size.

In an instant, everyone's hearts were half cold.

Hu Lao also walked out of his room at this time, his face was very ugly.

Director Li behind him kept rubbing his temples, and said in his mouth: "In this place, a room costs more than 200 Hong Kong dollars a day, what about playing monkeys......"

Hu Lao sighed: "Hong Kong is every inch of land, and it is understandable that there are still many ordinary people living in subdivided units in Hong Kong, and a family of several people is crammed into a small room of five or six square meters, and you can't think of that kind of life." ”

Director Li sighed, and when he saw that there were students all around, he didn't speak again.

When Xu Yiyang saw him come out, he couldn't help complaining: "Old Hu, isn't the school saving money and saving home, and making such a shabby place for everyone to live for more than 20 days?"

Hu Lao was also a little embarrassed at this time, he thought that the hotel conditions set by the school would be relatively poor, but he really didn't expect that the conditions would be so poor.

He looked embarrassed and full of helplessness and said: "I don't know what the actual situation here is like this, but our school is very tight on funds now, and the new campus is about to be put into use in one semester, but there is still a big financial hole that has not been solved, so I can't wait to break a penny into a three-petal flower, so please be considerate." ”

Xu Yiyang said: "Let everyone live a little like it, it won't cost too much money, right? All the rooms here are shady, cloudy and damp, the rooms are still small, and the environment is really bad." ”

Hu Lao said: "There are twenty of us, ten rooms, if there are three hundred yuan more in one room, it will be three thousand yuan a day, and seventy or eighty thousand yuan in more than 20 days, and it does not include catering, so we must save some money!"

Xu Yanan couldn't help but say angrily: "Old Hu, if our school is really so difficult, then why don't we just come?"

Director Li hurriedly said: "Yanan, you are the president of the student union and an old cadre of the student union, so you have to carry forward the spirit of hardship and hard work at this time and set an example for everyone." ”

Xu Yanan's aggrieved eyes were red: "Director Li, I can't do this example, you go to my room to take a look, my bed sheet is messy, I don't know what it is, do you know what I found under the bed?"

"What?" Director Li asked in surprise, "What are you doing under the bed when you are idle?" ”

"Put the box!" Xu Yanan burst into tears and said, "The room is so small, there is no place to put the box, how can we live!"

Director Li hurriedly nodded: "Okay, okay, then tell me what's under the bed?"

Xu Yanan hesitated for a long time before he mustered up the courage to say, "That kind of thing that has been used! And there is more than one!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions were not good-looking.

There is no need for Xu Yanan to say it more clearly, most people have guessed what she is referring to.

For a while, everyone felt a little sick to their stomachs.

Director Li was also stupid, and after a while, he said indignantly: "I went to the boss to theorize, and the money was paid a week in advance, and the result was so perfunctory!"

As she was talking, a middle-aged woman in her forties walked over, and Director Li hurriedly stopped her and said, "I said boss, don't you clean up this house? at least clean it for us?"

The middle-aged woman spoke to Director Li in Cantonese, but her speech was so fast that everyone couldn't understand what she was saying.

Director Li hurriedly asked, "Can you please speak Mandarin, I don't understand what you say." ”

The middle-aged woman responded impatiently.

Xu Yiyang understood the Cantonese sentence she said, to the effect that I don't speak Mandarin.

So Xu Yiyang asked her in English: "Then can you speak English?"

The other party waved his hand impatiently: "I don't speak English either." ”

After speaking, the other party hung a full sign in front of the glass door more than half a meter wide, and left with a step.

Director Li tried to stop her, but the other party ignored her.

Director Li, who was full of sadness, turned around and said to everyone: "Let's make do with it today, and I will communicate with her tomorrow and redo the hygiene for us." ”

Everyone complained for a while, and Director Li had no choice but to reassure: "In this way, let's put our things away first, let's go out for a walk, and find a restaurant to eat by the way, okay?"

Xu Yiyang opened his mouth and asked him: "Director Li, how much is the food standard set by the school for us?"

Director Li said: "Fifty Hong Kong dollars a day for one person. ”

"How much?" Xu Yiyang was stunned.

"Fifty Hong Kong dollars, more than fifty yuan, this food standard is what I strive for, so everyone can rest assured, the diet will not let everyone be wronged!"

Xu Yiyang shook his head helplessly: "Director Li, fifty Hong Kong dollars a day, eat three meals, eat soil, you want us to come to Hong Kong to lose weight, right?"

Director Li asked in surprise: "Isn't 50 a day enough?

Xu Yiyang was really powerless to complain, and said, "What should you do in the China Overseas Canteen?

Director Li asked rhetorically: "Where is Hong Kong going to be more expensive?"

Ning Ruolin opened her mouth at this time and said: "Director Li, if you eat a bowl of noodles on the roadside in Hong Kong, it costs ten yuan, and the standard of fifty yuan, we girls are better, and boys may really not be full." ”

Director Li was surprised: "So expensive?!"
