Chapter 1281: Cold World
Wang Kuo sent Yang Rui and Jing Yulan to King's Road, found a coffee shop and sat down, and said that he was waiting for them.
According to the original plan, Wang Kuo was going to send them back by himself, but after seeing Yang Rui's Yuntong black card and seeing his free and easy way to buy donkey cards, Wang Kuo's mind changed.
Regardless of how Yang Rui's money came from, as long as he has so much money and so much foreign exchange, it will not be weaker - it is too conservative to say this, Wang Kuo actually feels more terrible the more he thinks about it.
Unlike the ordinary attachΓ© of the embassy, Wang Kuo knew that there was someone behind Yang Rui, who came to Sweden to worship the dock across the river, and it was rare that he was popular with the Swedes, plus he still had money, so Wang Kuo had to think about it more.
Comrade Wang Kuo is a person who has seen the world, he has seen the son-in-law of Jingzhong Genhong Miaozheng, he has seen the children of promising high-ranking cadres, and he also knows the disciples of the big courtyard who have the ability and background, but if the scope is narrowed down to the people he can get, Wang Kuo has never seen anyone more powerful than Yang Rui.
Wang Kuo decided to be a good baby to the end and be a good driver for Yang Rui for a day.
He leaned on the sand of the coffee shop, stretched out comfortably, and took his coffee, thinking to himself if only someone could take a picture of him now.
Coffee shops in Sweden are also notoriously expensive, and the coffee in the King's Road shopping mall is even more expensive, a cup is only a dozen crowns, and Wang Kuo's salary can only be filled in a few days, and he was reluctant to come before. In fact, if Yang Rui hadn't asked him to spend money, he wouldn't have sat here.
Wang Kuo took out his notebook and wrote a bill slowly: coffee, 13.88 crowns.
After writing, Wang Kuo proudly examined his handwriting and was very happy.
Spending public money is naturally enjoyable, and it feels like a salary has risen.
"Brother Wang, you're here. At the gate, Xiao Deng, who was wearing thick dundun, saw Wang Kuo at a glance and came over to say hello with a smile.
In a group of white people, it is too easy to recognize the yellow race.
Wang Kuo turned around in surprise, glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Good guy, what about you leading the group?"
Behind Xiao Deng, followed by six or seven members of the Chinese delegation, they all looked curiously, and some of them looked at the polished floor tiles on the ground uneasily.
Xiao Deng smiled shyly and said: "Take a few of them around, go shopping or something, they have been busy in the past few days, they haven't even come out, don't come to Sweden when the time comes, they haven't even gone abroad." β
"What I said is that when the time comes, people will not care whether we are busy or not, they will only say that our Swedish embassy will not be a person, and people from China will not know how to receive it. Wang Kuo didn't know the specific identities of the other members of the delegation, so he gave Ambassador Ling some eye medicine, and the strength of the little people was weak, so he relied on a little needle to prick.
Xiao Deng asked with a smile: "Why do you have time to drink coffee today?" β
"Blind turn. Wang Kuo didn't mention Yang Rui. Today, he is tantamount to privately using the embassy's car and fuel money to pick up a favor, which is the same as Xiao Deng's nature, but this kind of thing can be done everywhere, and there is no need to hide it or make a big show.
"Then you sit down first, and we'll go in and take a spin. Xiao Deng smiled enviously.
Wang Kuo agreed, suddenly slapped his head, and said, "You guys bring a camera, take a picture of me." β
After Wang Kuo finished speaking, he found a place closest to the signboard of the coffee shop, posed, and asked Wang Kuo to take a picture of himself.
Xiao Deng had the heart to pat himself on the back, and took three photos of Wang Kuo before returning the camera to Qin Xiucheng, who was a little painful, and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, why don't you earn it with us, we will be going to eat a salmon sandwich or something later." β
Salmon is a Norwegian specialty, and in terms of distance, it is almost equivalent to a Swedish specialty, and it is one of the few foods that everyone can afford. Thanks to technological breakthroughs, salmon is currently farmed only in Norway in the world. Compared with wild salmon, farmed salmon is fatter and tastier, and there are no parasites and other hazards caused by wild salmon, which is a cheap and good model. As for the better merchants who promote the wild, I haven't thought of this point yet.
If it had been a day ago, Wang Kuo might have taken advantage of this, but now his mind has completely changed, and he shook his head and said, "I'll sit down for a while, and you guys can go play." β
What is a salmon sandwich, Wang Kuo took a look at his notebook, and when Xiao Deng and the others left, he also beckoned and asked for a sandwich.
There is public money reimbursement, what are you afraid of.
Xiao Deng didn't think much about it, and after saying goodbye, he took everyone inside, and said: "This is one of the best shopping malls in Stockholm, everyone knows that Paris is the fashion capital, in fact, Stockholm is not inferior at all, and Milan in Italy, New York in the United States and London in the United Kingdom are all famous, do you know why?"
He asked like a tour guide, but naturally he didn't get an answer.
Xiao Deng smiled and said, "Because the environment in Northern Europe is different. It's economical, but it's cold, and it's too cold for Parisian clothes to be delivered here, so Stockholm has its own set of design ideas. Winter is the case for most of the year, and thick clothes are required except for the hottest three or four months of summer. I feel that it is colder than our northeast. β
"Sweden is not far from the Arctic Circle, and it is definitely colder than the Northeast. Qin Xiucheng felt sorry for his three films, and his mood was not particularly good.
What he loaded today was color film, and he was usually reluctant to use it, so he thought that Xiao Deng would take it and sell it.
Xiao Deng pretended not to see Qin Xiucheng's expression, and said: "That's the truth, but the prices in Stockholm are expensive in the cities I mentioned." As far as I know, the price of clothes in Stockholm is higher than that in Paris, and the staff of our embassy are all organized to send them in China. β
"Then there are so many people here?" Nie Liangping is a staff member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and he is quite sensitive to prices and something.
"This is a high-end shopping mall in Sweden, and it sells clothes that are already very expensive, but not necessarily more expensive than those in other countries. Xiao Deng paused for a moment and said with a smile: "I also heard that a piece of clothing here has to be a kilogram of kron, and the coat is casually worth 10,000 kroner, and I can't afford to kill it, so you can take a look and understand it." β
"What about electrical appliances, are there electrical appliances here?" another scholar asked.
"Yes, the appliances are on the fourth floor. Xiao Deng obviously didn't come for the first time, led everyone to an open place, and then said: "Let's move freely from here, if you want to see electrical appliances, go to the fourth floor, if you want to see the watch saber, you can see the watch saber on the first and fifth floors, everyone has been to the store in Sweden, you can look at it casually, the attitude of the waiter is also okay, as long as you don't mess around, no one cares, there are things you like, and if you want to buy something, tell me again, I will check it for you." In addition, the things here are not bargained, just like in our early years, as much as you want, and occasionally there are discounts......"
Xiao Deng explained in detail, and emphatically said: "Let's move freely for two hours, and go back here to gather." Before gathering, it is best for everyone to go to the toilet. The toilets in Sweden are all paid public toilets, only the shopping malls and shops are free, and the general stores, you don't consume, and you are embarrassed to use other people's ......"
The last toilet in Sweden cost 5 crowns, which is indeed a price that ordinary Chinese cannot afford, and everyone attaches great importance to it.
Qin Xiucheng had already been depressed with the group, walked over quickly and took a soak of urine, turned around and walked upstairs.
He still has some savings, and he brought them all with him when he went out this time, thinking about whether to buy a watch or a small electrical appliance.
The advantage of small appliances is that the value is more stable, but it is more suitable for household use, not for giving away. The value of the watch is more comprehensive, and if it is sent to the right place, the official may be promoted to a higher level. However, this capital is a bit big, so Qin Xiucheng can't make up his mind.
Besides, Sweden is not Switzerland after all, the price of watches is cheap, and it has not been low to the bottom, but when it comes to the opportunity to go to Switzerland, Qin Xiucheng doesn't know if he can seize it.
"Hello, what do you want to see?" asked Qin Xiucheng in English by the waiter at the store.
Qin Xiucheng only realized that he seemed to have been wandering outside the window of a store for too long.
"No, I'm just looking. Qin Xiucheng replied in English, shook his head, and continued to walk forward.
"Welcome to your next visit. "The waiters in the luxury store are all very nice and speak beautifully.
Qin Xiucheng smiled in his heart, and said in his heart: Where is there any next visit, the price of clothes here, even the self-employed people in China, are also unaffordable, often five-digit prices, and six-digit prices, I don't know where foreigners get so much money.
He looked around as if he were looking at a diorama, planning to go around the mall, and go upstairs to see the knick-knacks, maybe a little less than a watch or something.
The diorama was dazzling, however, a familiar figure caught Qin Xiucheng's eyes.
"Jing Yulan?" Qin Xiucheng looked at Jing Yulan who was trying on the big glass in front of him in surprise.
Teacher Jing, who has a slender figure, is originally beautiful and intoxicating, and at this time, he is wearing a well-cut fashion and deliberately protruding his shape, which is even more beautiful so that Qin Xiucheng dare not recognize him.
What made Qin Xiucheng even more worried was that Jing Yulan was holding Yang Rui's shoulder with one hand, with a happy face.
A flame of fire rose from the bottom of Qin Xiucheng's heart.
He turned around sharply, rushed into the store with the "LouIs VuITTon" nameplate in a few big steps, faced Jing Yulan, and said bitterly: "I didn't expect that you are such a woman, you are actually ...... Is what you want for marriage to be money? Is it to buy good clothes and eat good food? Yes, I have no money, I can't afford to buy good clothes, but I didn't expect it, I didn't think of it!"
When he said this, Qin Xiucheng's face turned red, it was the anger of righteous indignation spraying, it was the condemnation of the literati to the people who were not ancient......
Jing Yulan was still a little stunned, but Yang Rui had already seen him, and walked to Qin Xiucheng's side with a smile.
"What are you going to do!" Qin Xiucheng clenched his hands into fists, ready to fight back at any time.
His height is 1.7 meters, although he is a head lower than Yang Rui, and he is not as strong as him, but he is not without a hard fight.
Yang Rui shook his head and said, "I'm not trying to beat you, I'm letting you see the truth." β
"What truth?"
Yang Rui stood side by side with him, then pointed to the dressing mirror in front of him, and said, "Look at you, look at me again, do you think the gap between the two of us is really money and clothes?"
Yang Rui pointed to his face, and then to Qin Xiucheng's face, and said, "Actually, I also think that it doesn't matter if a man has money or not, and it doesn't matter if he has good clothes, right?"
Qin Xiucheng looked at himself in the dressing mirror, and then at Yang Rui in the dressing mirror, and stomped his foot angrily.
It hurts.
Tile floor, so hard.
The Swedish clerk's gaze was so indifferent.
World...... It's so cold......
