Chapter 89: Champagne Inn
Lao Tian next to him also looked at it carefully for a while, and then gently tore off the notice on it for sale of cell repair solution, folded it and put it in his pocket.
"You've used up all the cell repair solutions at home, and I'm going to buy some for later." Lao Tian explained.
Chen Xiao nodded silently.
In fact, he felt that his brain was a little insufficient.
Homeland...... It turned out to be like this.
"Where are we going now?"
"Go to the liaison office." Lao Tian laughed: "The official external liaison office of the service agency on the island, where to enthrone you, tell them that I brought you here." β
The liaison office that Lao Tian said is actually a big house at the end of this town...... The house resembles a church, except that there is no cross on the roof.
There were only a few people in the liaison office, sitting lazily behind desks in the house - but in a very kind manner.
It seems that everyone here knows Lao Tian, and everyone greets him warmly and greets him for a while. Later, according to Lao Tian's introduction, everyone looked at Chen Xiao who was standing behind with curious eyes.
"Is that him?"
A person from the liaison office looked at Chen Xiao with a smile. The man had a clean appearance, a light shirt and short hair. He took out a document: "Sign it, and I'll report it immediately, as early as tonight, and tomorrow morning at the latest." Someone will pick you up and take you to headquarters. β
After a pause, he looked at Lao Tian: "Where do you live?" β
"I don't know yet, I'm going to the Champagne Inn."
"Haha, Champagne Inn? Lao Tian, do you also like to stay in a champagne inn? I didn't expect an old man like you to be interested in champagne. β
Lao Tian hurriedly shook his head: "Don't be kidding, I'm not that kind of hairy boy, I just miss the braised pork rice very much." β
"Haha! Then you have to go early, I'm afraid there won't be a room if you go late. β
The locals of the liaison office made a grimace at Lao Tian.
Chen Xiao was a little puzzled at first, but after arriving at the place, he quickly understood why the people in the liaison office had such strange expressions.
Champagne Inn.
The name is quirky. In fact, it was indeed an innβan inn that looked like one of the ones depicted in Chinese martial arts novels.
In the lobby on the first floor is the restaurant. The two shopkeepers stood in the hall and were busy, and upstairs was the guest room.
What made Chen Xiao feel strange was that when he walked into this inn, the hall was actually full! This made him a little curious. Because I have walked all the way in the town, I have walked a lot of places, and I can see that it is very clean and there are not many people.
But he soon understood the reason for the high rate of visitors: most of the guests who came were young men who looked to be in their twenties and thirties. Easterners, Westerners. There are even blacks.
The problem is that all the furnishings of this inn are very oriental: the table of eight immortals, wooden benches, wooden chopsticks on the table, and a small white porcelain wine jug......
Watching a group of blonde, blue-eyed and dark-skinned foreigners sit in such a scene where a lot of martial arts stories should happen...... It's a kind of time and space that makes people feel like they are out of order.
Obviously, all these young people, the focus of everyone's attention is on the girl sitting behind the counter.
This is a girl with red sè hair - this is what makes Chen Xiao curious.
The girl looked no more than twenty years old. Judging from the skin, eyes, and facial contours, it is clear that she is an oriental.
I have to say that this girl was born extremely beautiful, she wore a flowery skirt, and her long hair was combed with a hemp braid - this kind of dress should be said to be very rustic. But in her body, it seems to be almost perfectly integrated with the surrounding environment.
Especially when she lowered her head as if she was looking at something, she was fascinated. A pair of eyes are as calm as water, the contours of the face are soft, and the eyelashes flutter slightly.
Seeing this girl, Chen Xiao immediately remembered a poem: The most is the gentleness of the bowed head!
When Lao Tian walked in. Only a few people stood up to greet him - not that most of the people here didn't know Lao Tian. Instead, everyone's attention was on the chick behind the counter.
She is indeed very beautiful, and she can also attract different eyes.
Walking to the counter, Lao Tian stretched out two fingers and tapped lightly on the counter twice.
The girl raised her head and glanced at Lao Tian, with a smile in her big eyes: "Yi? Uncle Tian, are you back on the island? How many days will you stay this time? β
"I don't know, maybe two or three days."
The Chinese spoken by the girl was a little blunt, and Chen Xiao was slightly stunned. Immediately recognized. The Chinese spoken by the girls is very similar to the tone of Chinese spoken by people from Hong Kong and Taiwan who have been seen in Kidd school.
But then, he saw the girl holding the ground in her hand, and the thing that had just been fascinated...... Stunned.
Such a vintage-filled classical beauty. In such a classical inn, I sat there quietly, but I could see things, and it was actually ......
Fashion Magazine?!
On the magazine's title page, a model wearing the latest Versace chΕ«n chout of the season is scratching her head......
What a bad atmosphere! It's so damaging to the atmosphere......
But the girl just laughed, and then took out a bunch of keys from under the counter: "Upstairs, your old room." β
Then, as if unwilling to speak anymore, she lowered her head and continued to flip through her fashion magazines with feverish and envious eyes.
Lao Tian seemed to be no longer surprised, and he knocked on the table again.
"What? Anything else? β
"I'm going to exchange some currency." Lao Tian smiled embarrassedly: "I'm in too much of a hurry, and ...... You also know that I am long retired and do not have much savings on the island......"
That's when the girl was smiling...... Pity. She smiled like this, although she was beautiful, but unfortunately, there was a hint of cunning in her eyes. It really spoiled the freshness of her body even more.
"How much?" The girl squinted her eyes like a little fox.
Lao Tian took out a VIS card from his pocket and pushed it: "There are a million dollars in it." β
The girl took a look, thought for a moment, then flipped under the counter, took out a few colorful things that looked like banknotes, and put them on the table.
Chen Xiao glanced at it quickly: these do seem to be some kind of banknotes. But it wasn't the currency of any country he knew.
Because on the top banknote, there are seven or eight languages printed in Chinese, English, French, Russian and so on! There is no other country in the world with so many languages printed on its currency!
And the ground value of the banknote also surprised Chen Xiao.
The top one, impressively
Based on the calculation that there are no more than ten banknotes on this counter, the total number here will not exceed 5,000 yuan......
A million dollars! Can I change it for such a little bit? What kind of currency is this? Could it be the "Martian element"?
Lao Tian glanced at it, and his face was embarrassed: "This ...... I guess it's a little less. β
The girl sighed quietly, but there was a smile in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Uncle Tian, this is the current market." I've already given the most here. If you don't believe me, you can go to another house to see, and at most you can only give me ninety percent here. I'm still looking at the affection of old acquaintances......"
Lao Tian sighed helplessly, so he could only reach out and take the banknotes, and thought for a while: "But these are not enough for what I need, if I can, can I exchange them for something else?" β
The girl smiled apologetically: "Uncle Tian." You know I'm running an inn, and I don't need any equipment or anything like that. β
Lao Tian scratched his scalp and was about to pull Chen Xiao away.
"Wait!"
The girl suddenly exclaimed and stood up from behind the counter!
The height at which she stood was about one hundred and sixty centimeters, but the sly appearance of a merchant on her face no longer existed. A pair of eyes with heat, admiration, excitement...... and many other emotional factors, staring at Chen Xiao deadly.
Well?
Chen Xiao has not been stared at by girls with such admiring eyes. When I first started working in a fast food restaurant. There are some little girls who look at themselves with this kind of similar gaze all day long...... But. This beautiful and amazing girl shouldn't be that kind of little girl, right? Moreover, the eagerness in her eyes was even more enthusiastic! It's as if a girl has seen the first love of her dreams!
Chen Xiao didn't think she would have such a big charm!
Really......
stared at Chen Xiao for five seconds, and the girl took a deep breath, as if her heart was very agitated, and her chest rose and fell a little.
"You!" She pointed at Chen Xiao: "Your glasses...... Can be used to trade! β
I? Eye? Change?
Chen Xiao was stunned.
Lao Tian was overjoyed in his eyes, and quickly took off the sunglasses that Chen Xiao hung on the collar of his clothes. Placed on the counter.
The girl's hands trembled a little. Her slender white fingers gently lifted the sunglasses. After looking at it carefully for a while, he read softly and quickly:
"Ray-Ban, a summer limited edition ...... three years ago"
She gently stroked the frame with her fingers, and quickly took out a silk scarf from the table and carefully wiped it down.
This sunglasses was bought by Chen Xiao three years ago, when his parents were still there and his family was wealthy, and he bought these sunglasses as a gift to himself. The world-famous brand Ray-Ban released a classic limited edition that year, and it cost about $600 when it was bought.
When he went out this time, he just took it with him casually, thinking that he might be able to use it in a city like Sydney. It just hung on the collar of the clothes just now.
Obviously, the excitement of the girl god Sè is not aimed at herself, but these sunglasses?!
"This can be sold to me, and I can exchange it for currency on the island." The girl withdrew her eyes and pretended to look at Lao Tian and Chen Xiao calmly.
It's a pity that at this time, her laid-back appearance has been completely exposed.
"This ...... According to the rules of the homeland, it is not allowed to sell things from the outside world on the island, including cars, clothing, electrical equipment, and glasses. Lao Tian smiled slyly.
"It's not a sale." The girl smiled quickly: "These sunglasses are this gentleman's own, I am just willing to make a bid to ask him to transfer his personal belongings." It is not considered a commercial sale. β
"How much are you bidding?" Lao Tian smiled slightly.
The girl snorted and pulled out a currency with a face value of "500" from the counter.
Chen Xiao was stunned!!
A million dollars can be exchanged for 5,000 dollars! If you have one sunglasses yourself, you can exchange them for five hundred?!
The problem is, these sunglasses are only worth a few hundred dollars......
"Deal!"
As if he was worried that the other party would regret it, Lao Tian quickly took the banknote back into his arms, laughed, and pulled Chen Xiao, who was still in a daze, and hurriedly went upstairs down the stairs.
Chen Xiao glanced back in her busy schedule, and the girl happily fiddled back and forth with her sunglasses, and put them on excitedly, taking out the mirror and looking around-like a child who had gotten his favorite toy.
Chen Xiao felt a little ridiculous in her heart.
This kind of sunglasses is not uncommon outside, if you take ten sunglasses and come back to buy this girl, wouldn't you be able to exchange it for 5,000 yuan of island currency? That's a million dollars!!
"Don't fight yours for this idea." Lao Tian smiled evilly beside him
