Chapter 385: I'll figure it out
Seeing that Director Li had no idea about Hong Kong's consumption level at all, Xu Yiyang couldn't help but shake his head, turned his face to Hu Lao and said: "Hu Lao, I have always respected you very much, so what I want to say is definitely not aimed at you, I just want to say, can you say hello to the school leaders when you go back, if we really don't have this condition, don't come out to do any communication, isn't it good to stay at home? I have a total of more than 7,000 Hong Kong dollars on me now, and I can't do anything if I want to!"
In 2000, UnionPay was not established, and mainland bank cards could not be used in Hong Kong, even if they had tens of millions in their accounts, they could not use them in Hong Kong.
Hu Lao sighed lightly and said: "This is my mistake, the school is also the first time to come to Hong Kong for exchanges, we don't know the situation in Hong Kong, and the matter of booking a hotel, maybe the implementation link is not clear, I really didn't know that this was the case before I came." ”
As he spoke, he asked Director Li, "How much Hong Kong dollars do we have prepared this time?"
Director Li said: "I brought a total of 70,000 Hong Kong dollars. ”
"Seventy thousand?" Hu Lao sighed: "Why is it so little?"
Director Li said helplessly: "According to the school's standard, 50 yuan per person per day for meals and 100 yuan for other expenses, 20 people are 3,000 a day, a total of 23 days, 69,000, so the school gave 70,000." ”
Hu Lao was also a little angry and said, "The school's budget is too picky!"
Director Li spread his hands: "Old Hu, I can't help anything about this......"
Hu Lao sighed and said to everyone: "In this way, let's put down our luggage first, go out for a walk, relax and relax, and I will communicate with the school again to see if there is any solution." ”
Now that everyone is far away in Hong Kong, it is really not so easy to solve the problem, although everyone has complaints in their hearts, they can only accept the reality temporarily.
Everyone temporarily left their luggage in the extremely dirty hotel, and when they came out, they still had a musty smell all over their bodies.
Mr. Hu and Director Li took a map of Hong Kong and took everyone to find the bus stop, hoping to take everyone to Victoria Harbor to see and divert their attention.
But the thought of going back to sleep at night made everyone feel a little unthinkable.
While walking, Shen Lele whispered to Xu Yiyang in his hometown: "Actually, there are also that kind of things under the bed in my room, as well as used toilet paper and urine in plastic bottles, so I didn't say anything for fear ......of scaring Ning Ruolin."
When Xu Yiyang heard this, he scolded angrily: "This is really nonsense." ”
Shen Lele said helplessly: "Hey, I want to go back......"
Xu Yiyang comforted her and said: "I have to let Hu Lao make a statement to the school, this matter must be resolved, otherwise there will be no flow, and I will go back to Zhonghai directly." ”
Hu Bingwen was also in a hurry, bought a mobile phone card at a roadside shop, and couldn't wait to call the school leaders.
As soon as the phone called, Hu Bingwen truthfully fed back the situation to the school leaders.
The school leaders didn't expect that the hotel booked in advance would be so bad, so they immediately checked with the specific staff to find out what happened.
First of all, this hotel was set up with the help of an old classmate who works in Hong Kong.
The old classmate said it at the time, saying that this is his friend's hotel, very close to the University of Hong Kong, convenient transportation, clean and tidy, cost-effective, at least more than 200 cheaper than the hotel of the same level outside, anyway, it is a lot of flowers.
In these days, it is impossible to book hotels in Hong Kong through the Internet, and China Overseas has no similar experience in Hong Kong and foreign affairs, so it can only find various channels to help.
The school staff had never been to Hong Kong, and he didn't have any suspicions about his old classmates, so he reported the situation to the school, and as soon as the school heard that it could save a lot of money, it immediately decided to approve this person and set the hotel.
However, the school really didn't expect it to be so bad.
Now this person can no longer be contacted, and it is clear that he has cheated China and Overseas.
Secondly, the school can't give them any solution now, because the school can't send them thousands of miles to Hong Kong dollars.
So, the solution given by the school was four words: "Stick to it." ”
Hu Bingwen was naturally very angry, but anger was useless, far water could not quench his thirst.
The school is also willing to pay, but how to convert the money into Hong Kong dollars is a problem.
In other words, it's a problem that can't be solved at all.
Hu Bingwen reported the news to everyone, and the expressions of everyone at the scene were very ugly.
So there's no way to solve it?
When everyone came, they didn't bring much cash with them, and the economic conditions were limited, so most people exchanged a few hundred Hong Kong dollars, and the most could only bring more than 7,000 Hong Kong dollars.
After all, most of them are students, and most of them have saved a few hundred Hong Kong dollars for a few hundred Hong Kong dollars, and when they are ready to leave, they will buy some souvenirs, which are not enough for a night in a hotel.
Even with the 70,000 Hong Kong dollars in cash prepared by the school, it is not much money at all.
Even if you bring in the food expenses for the next 20 days, it is impossible to meet the cost of changing hotels for 20 people.
Hu Lao had no choice but to apologize to everyone one by one, explaining that this was not the school's deliberate money-saving, but the school's money was not spent, but the result was that he was unladylike and was cheated.
Director Li also said: "Fortunately, that bastard still has a bit of humanity, at least he booked a hotel for us, if he directly ran away with the money, we people would have to sleep on the streets." ”
Hu Lao said: "This person seems to be very smart, if he runs away with the money, it will be a sure fraud, but he will set you a first-class hotel to deal with the errand, even if you call the police, I'm afraid it will not be easy to pursue him......"
Xu Yanan, the student president next to him, said seriously: "Mr. Hu, Director Li, let's have one thing to say, it's true that the school is unladylike in this matter, but if the school is not greedy for cheapness, can it be fooled?"
Director Li said embarrassedly: "Oh, Xu Yanan, Hu Lao also said just now, the school is indeed a little difficult now......
Xu Yanan said aggressively: "The school can come up with tens of thousands of yuan of program preparation funds for the New Year's Day party, not counting the stage construction and equipment rental costs of the day.
Saying that, Xu Yanan said again: "Isn't the school afraid that we live here, with a musty and smelly smell on our bodies every day, and we will lose the face of the school when we go to HKU for exchanges?"
Director Li scratched his head and found that it was indeed a bit difficult to wash the floor of the school at this time.
Xu Yiyang, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly remembered a key point and asked: "Director Li, how did the school give money to that person? Since the school has the ability to give him money, why can't it give us the money?"
Director Li sighed and said: "Isn't this a strict foreign exchange control, and it is very troublesome for our school to exchange foreign currency, so the person who did the work took the initiative to propose that he could remit the equivalent amount of RMB to his relatives in the mainland, and then he used Hong Kong dollars to book a hotel for us in Hong Kong, which is equivalent to 'exchanging foreign exchange in the air', which means that there is a bit of a side game, and now that person is missing, we can't do anything about it......"
Xu Yiyang suddenly realized.
Why didn't you think of this mode of operation?
So he opened his mouth and said to the people, "Then I'll think of a way." ”
After speaking, he also went into the store and bought a mobile phone card, and after replacing the card, he called Fang Junhui, a lawyer in Guangcheng who had cooperated many times.
Although Fang Junhui is in Guangcheng, the company has a lot of business in Hong Kong, including the business of registering a company in Hong Kong, that is, he is helping to handle it, very professional, they are close to Hong Kong, there is a way in Hong Kong, and there must be a way to solve the problem.
So, Xu Yiyang made a direct phone call, and after revealing his identity, he asked directly: "Lawyer Fang, I am now in Hong Kong and need about 100,000 or 200,000 Hong Kong dollars, can you operate it here?"
