Luo Youyi sleepwalked for a few minutes, following the flow of people into the car like a walking corpse, and did not come to his senses until he sat down in his seat for a long time.

The bus they sit in is a sub-brand of Mercedes-Benz, and the structure is very simple and atmospheric, with very good lighting, a large proportion of windows, and a tram with excellent silence. Although the endurance of the tram is poor, there is no pressure to drive in the urban area, after all, the farthest point on the main island of Lanfang is only seventy or eighty kilometers away.

Before getting on the bus, Luo Youyi secretly asked, and learned that this bus costs more than 2 million yuan, which is really arrogant. The design is fully loaded with 40 seats, but in fact, each car only seats 30 people, leaving a considerable margin and appearing spacious.

"Lan Fang is really rich, the buses are all Mercedes-Benz, Brother Han, you said you were here before, was this the case at that time?" Luo Youyi swallowed a mouthful of saliva before asking about the tourists who sat with him beside him.

The man he was sitting with was also an Internet café owner named Han Xiang. However, the business is much bigger than him, and it comes from Ark City, the provincial capital of a coastal province.

Luo Youyi's hometown is in the suburbs next to Shudu, the provincial capital of Shu Province, and it is already close to Meishan. He has more than 100 machines in the Internet café in his hometown, plus all the other total expenses for house decoration, and it costs 1.5 million yuan to open an Internet café.

The capital of 1.5 million yuan was earned by opening a game machine hall in 95, and it took five or six years to upgrade from a game hall owner to an Internet café owner.

And Han Xiang has five Internet cafes in the urban area of Ark City, which are almost chained, except for the largest one, which is managed by himself, and the others are all left to relatives at home, such as brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law. Adding up to thousands of machines, the business scale is close to ten times that of Luo Youyi.

In terms of the time when the two joined Alipay customers, Han Xiang was also more than half a month earlier than him, and during the period, Han Xiang used Alipay to purchase online game point cards, Han Xiang was dozens of times better than Luo Youyi.

However, this time, the preferential treatment of Han Xiang and Luo Youyi was quite comparable to the fact that they were invited by Alipay to pay for the ticket and enjoy the financial visa-free treatment of the Lan people.

Because of this, Luo Youyi has always been cautious in the group, and in the face of peers who are much stronger than him, he almost politely handed over cigarettes to learn from experience when he saw one, and made friends who were richer than him. On the plane that came, Han Xiang sat next to him, and he was even more like Brother Han, and he didn't hesitate to ask for advice on anything he could, and said that he would invite Brother Han to drink at night when he landed.

At this moment, Han Xiang was asked by him, so he replied casually: "I came to travel almost three years ago, and at that time, I just took advantage of the Southeast Asian financial crisis and the Lanfang people to fully switch to RMB, so prices fell by one-third all of a sudden. I thought it was a good deal, so I took the opportunity to come at my own expense.

At that time, the best hotel was a five-star Hilton, and the road from the city to the port around the Hilton was relatively neatly paved, which was completely incomparable with now. At that time, I stayed on the main island for two days, and one of the days was a good trip to experience the foreigner Hilton.

The other projects on the main island don't bother to play more at all, and the rest of the week is on the Galloping Horse Atoll, where the sea is really comfortable, it is a real glass sea, and from near to far, from green to blue, I have never seen it elsewhere. It's useless for you to go to Bali, it's not an island made of pure coral. I heard those really rich bigwigs say that if you want to see the sea like Galloping Horse Reef, you have to go to the Great Barrier Reef or Tahiti. ”

Han Xiang is Lao Lanfang at a glance, and it is definitely not the first time he is familiar with the way. Luo Youyi just asked casually, and he showed a lot of knowledge. It is like a pair of two-week events in the tour group, and even frequent guests point out the country in front of the one-week players.

When Luo Youyi heard this, he was not only a little embarrassed, but also humbly praised him online: "Brother Han, since you played so deeply back then, how can you be willing to repay such an expensive group this time."

The tour price is not cheap, although I invited a ticket, but I think it is still several times more expensive than the price I found in other low-profile groups. I haven't been here for the first time, so I gritted my teeth and endured it. You are an old man, you can't come to such an expensive group again. ”

The reason why Luo Youyi said this is because the price of the "Alipay Early First Batch of Customer Exclusive Group" they followed this time is really exaggerated. Although the ticket was paid for by Alipay, the remaining money was still as high as 50,000 yuan per person!

Of course, the reason why it is so expensive is actually because of the good quality of the whole game and the enjoyment is very high-end.

For example, for three of the five days you stay on the main island of Lanfang, you will stay at the newly opened Burj Al Arab! The most basic standard room of the Burj Al Arab will cost 10,000 yuan a night. The standard room can sleep two people, and there are 5,000 yuan per night!

In the next two days, I stayed in a five-star Hilton Hotel, which was worse than the seven-star Lanfang Burj Al Arab, but compared with the domestic hotels in 2001, it was also a first-class top service experience and quality.

The group meal of the tour group package is also to ensure that there are big Lanfang red lobster and Napoleon wrasse, a table of ten people, an average of three to five catties of large Napoleon wrasse per table per meal, and the same size of the East Star Grouper, Lanfang Red Dragon each, as for the cedar lobster is open and buffet like a casual eat, all other tropical local seafood are all eaten casually, chickens, ducks, fish, beef cattle and sheep are also open to supply (Lanfang Red Dragon is the original Aolong, Aolong is stinky, After KG Group, Australia's largest seafood company, was bankrupted by Gu Kun, those Indonesians renamed the Aolong they caught in the Arafura Sea as Lanfang Red Dragon and sold it in the northern market. Gu Kun made a difference as a middleman for nothing)

Therefore, for the five days of playing on the main island, the accommodation fee and the meals are added up, and the original price is 20,000 yuan.

The trip lasted for two weeks, except for the five days on the main island, which had just been renovated and opened, to visit the Zhaoming Palace Museum, stay at the Burj Al Arab, visit the Aircraft Carrier Museum, Lanfang Hollywood Studios, and several natural attractions.

Most of the rest of the time is to go to the Galloping Horse Atoll to play the Maldives/Tahiti model of coral reef islands, water sports every day, and go to the fitness center where many Hollywood stars come to do health management to work out and lose weight, and follow the actresses who shoot bodybuilding movies to ask for personal trainers. The white female personal trainers in the fitness center here are also quite famous on the small screen.

Such a high-end enjoyment, the two-week tour fee is 50,000 yuan, which is really a conscience price.

Luo Youyi just hasn't seen the world, after all, he hasn't played to the back, so he will suffer from gains and losses and is afraid that the money spent will not be worth the ticket price.

Han Xiang looked at his stingy appearance and shook his head: "You are not happy! I came here three years ago, and this time it is really expensive." But I believe that there is a truth about expensive.

Besides, when I came here three years ago, do you know how much the visa fee was? I was rich at that time, but I opened an Internet café, and I didn't even register my company, I used the name of a self-employed business, and I was still young at that time, and I didn't care whether I paid pension insurance or not.

Later, it was called a toss, no company, no serious job, no insurance, just a self-employed identity, I must have one million of the liquidity I had on hand at the time, but I didn't sign it, saying that my money was all current, not frozen, I don't know if I was cheating, I was afraid that I would cheat people, in fact, I was a poor man, and I wanted to mix with Lanfang to make money by working as a black worker.

In the end, fortunately, I took the real estate certificate of the three suites in the provincial city to notarize it, proving that I was a serious person, and they gave me a visa. This time is different, we are early users of Alipay! Lanfang Bank admits that we are people with a sense of social responsibility! We are exempt from financial scrutiny! Lao Tzu does not argue for other things, just come and go freely for this, then I have to come and play, and go back in front of my colleagues who have troubled visas, so that we can have face. ”

Many officials may not understand, but even at the beginning of the 21st century, in fact, domestic people have to go to some countries with relatively tight visa cards - the so-called "relatively tight" is generally considered to be tighter than going to the same period, or similar to going to Oceania, even if it is tight - "no serious work", it is still a hard wound that is relatively easy to be stuck.

If you have registered a company, become your own boss, and the company's finances are indeed profitable, and it is not a leather bag company, then it should be no problem. If it is a doctor and lawyer, a decent profession and a high formal income, it is no problem. I am afraid of those self-employed who are obviously rich, but have not opened a company and have little tax income.

At that time, there were still many self-employed people who were actually quite rich, but the income that could be proved by the evidence of Mingmian Mountain was relatively vague, and this kind of person was easy to eat when he went to a foreign country, so he was stuck very badly.

(For the same income, foreign countries do prefer self-employed because they have more flexibility in earning a living.) For example, if you are a good cook, you can open your own small restaurant, and if you successfully go to Oceania, you can still open a small Chinese restaurant in the community in some corners of Oceania. Therefore, the more "people who have skills abroad and are still easy to find flexible jobs", the tighter the visa guard.

On the contrary, if it is a government institution or institution, it depends on the establishment to eat. Even if the salary is low, if a foreigner will believe that "this kind of person will not have the skills to make a living after leaving", then he will be relieved that you will travel to a foreign country. In short, the more flexible the livelihood skills, the more wary people are)

When Han Xiang talked about this, he also seemed to recall some not very good memories of the past, and sighed with emotion.

Luo Youyi listened to it next to him, and was quite touched: "It seems that Gu Ye's hand 'as long as Alipay is opened, even self-employed people with flexible employment can be released directly without reviewing finances', which is really a wonderful move, and has unearthed many market blind spots that other developed countries did not dare to do in the tourism market." ”

Wealthy self-employed people, including the owners of Internet cafes in leather bag companies, these groups are all rich people who can give up 1 million in a time period like 2001. But originally this group was excluded from the circle of "it is easy to travel abroad to developed countries", Gu Kun pocketed the part of the money that these people wanted to spend but couldn't spend, even if it was only a small part, it was enough to fill the pot.

A large country of 1.4 billion people, and a small country with a population of 70,000 nationalities and 300,000 permanent residents, still have no language barrier at all. As long as a little bit of rich people's spending power leaks through the fingernails of a big country, a small country with a population of only one-20,000 of a large country can eat enough.

Although the trip has not yet begun, he is already full of expectations, and the original idea of "worrying about spending money in vain" has completely dissipated.

"I'm so lucky, who made me the first user in our city to join Alipay's real-name authentication, and I was able to get such an honor. I don't know how much benefit the people behind will get. ”
