Chapter 114: Cultural Differences
"One more in a month?" Ye Tianyi is a little puzzled now, how is it possible, it stands to reason that the current Tianxing Mall and Shixuanzhai still have business in the Soviet Union, and they are not enough to make so much money? Is something happening at home or in the USSR?
But after thinking about it for a long time, Ye Tianyi could only preliminarily determine that there was a problem in the Soviet Union, but being able to make money is a good thing for Ye Tianyi now, so this matter should be dealt with when he goes back! After all, you have to give your subordinates some trust as much as possible, so that they can grow better and let go of themselves, right?
"yes, I see." Ye Tianyi nodded, and there was no longer a ** to continue asking, but chatted with a few people about the rest of the topics!
The heavy rain in Manchester stopped after more than a day, and it really came and went quickly!
When he got up and went out in the morning, Ye Tianyi could feel the cool smell of the air moistened by the rain.
In the morning, Lu Ya went out shopping under Chen De's lead! The main reason is that Ye Tianyi also wants to eat some food, so he asked Lu Ya to buy and pack it back, so as not to eat bread and those things every day.
Looking around, I realized that I didn't have anything to do right now. After thinking about it, I decided to go to Rowling's house, and then find an opportunity to make things clear, and give her the task of continuing Harry Potter, so that I can leave as soon as possible and get ready for the sniper pound in August!
When he went to Rowling's house, Ye Tianyi didn't let Qin Wu come with him, after all, with Qin Wu's presence, the conversation between Ye Tianyi and Rowling would not be too easy, there were too many topics, and it was not suitable for a rookie like Ye Tianyi to master.
"Keep your language as short as possible!" Ye Tianyi silently cheered himself up in his heart, and he couldn't help but smile a little bitterly in his heart, it seems that he is really a stuffy person, he is not even good at chatting skills, it seems that he will have to learn this chat skill in the future.
The journey is very short, and it is too late for Ye Tianyi to sort out his thoughts!
When Ye Tianyi first arrived at the door of Rowling's house, he looked at Rowling's door and didn't know what to say when he went in for a while.
So he walked back and forth on the part of the road at the door.
"Hey, Tianyi, good morning!"
Just when Ye Tianyi walked back to the door of Rowling's house, he saw Rowling walking in from the outside.
Ye Tianyi was stunned for a moment, feeling that Rowling was not at home just now! Full of black lines, Ye Tianyi said: "Ah, yes." Walking 100 steps after eating, which is good for your stomach, is a habit of our country. ”
"A hundred steps after eating?" Rowling showed a puzzled expression, it was obvious that Rowling didn't understand why she had to walk a hundred steps after eating, wouldn't it be better to sit and drink a cup of fragrant coffee?
Ye Tianyi saw Luo Lin's puzzled expression, and suddenly understood! But there is also some amusement in my heart, which is a phenomenon caused by cultural differences.
I remember that Ye Tianyi read such a story in his last life, and it was also about the fact that Chinese people walked a hundred steps after a meal in a foreign country!
Several middle-aged men walked in groups, following a fixed route, around a specific house, circling again and again, some picking their teeth, some stretching their arms and expanding their chests as they walked, but they all talked loudly and laughed as if no one was around, and after a few laps, disappeared without a trace.
Just such a simple walk after a meal, a walk! As a result, those foreigners were secretly watching in their own houses, panicking, and thinking it was a group of underworld people, so they called the police!
However, Ye Tianyi prefers to walk a hundred steps after dinner, after all, this is a traditional habit, and it is also a good habit, and it is unique to the famous Chinese family, so Ye Tianyi feels that it is still worth continuing to walk.
However, there are also some bad likes, such as Chinese people who like to smoke in the house often when staying in a foreign hotel, so that the carpet in the room is burned out of the hole! They also make loud noises in restaurants or elevators, etc., causing complaints from other guests. As a result, some high-end resorts have stated that they will no longer accept tours from China, especially in Thailand.
So Ye Tianyi also specially introduced some good customs and culture of China to Rowling, for which Rowling also listened carefully, and expressed her opinions from time to time!
"Oh, let's go to the house, it's a pleasure to talk to you." Rowling found that she had been standing outside with Ye Tianyi as soon as she was fascinated, so she proposed to go home.
Ye Tianyi naturally seemed to nod and agree, isn't this what he is doing for this moment! As long as you shift the topic to the novel at that time, the rest of the matter will naturally fall into place.
When I entered the room, I could see that the room at this time was not as dirty as the thief had made that day! Everything is neatly visited, and there is a bit of simplicity.
"You sit down first, I'll make you a cup of coffee." Rowling beckoned Ye Tianyi to sit down and said.
Ye Tianyi nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you." ”
To be honest, Ye Tianyi doesn't like coffee very much, and prefers to drink tea, although Ye Tianyi himself doesn't know much about tea! But at least Ye Tianyi knew that drinking tea from time to time was beneficial, and he also knew that drinking coffee was not too beneficial, and it was very bitter.
The coffee made by Rowling was very strong, but it was also very bitter, so Ye Tianyi only drank a few sips and didn't drink it.
At this time, Rowling's chat skills don't seem to be very good, and Ye Tianyi is half a catty, and what the two of them are talking about is in full swing!
Ye Tianyi is always looking for an opportunity to change the topic, and Rowling seems to be very cooperative with Ye Tianyi's way of changing the topic.
"Aunt Rowling, I find that your thinking is a bit wild, I don't know if you like magic novels?" Ye Tianyi finally pulled the topic back, so he asked.
"Fantasy novels?" Speaking of this, a flash of brightness flashed in Rowling's eyes, but it quickly dimmed: "Well, I like novels very much, and I tried to write them, but then I found out that there is someone who writes the same thing as me, and most of them are similar!" But he has already been published, and he has written a lot more than I do. ”
Ye Tianyi was secretly happy in his heart, and pretended to be surprised: "Aunt Rowling, you can still write novels!" Can you show me your novel? ”
Rowling smiled, and said with a bright eye, "Have you seen Harry Potter?" I'm not afraid to laugh at you when I say it, what I wrote is very similar to that book. I don't even believe there is such a coincidence in the world. ”
"Harry Potter?" Ye Tianyi's eyes were even more surprised: "Aunt Rowling, you said that what you wrote is very similar to Harry Potter?" ”
"yes." Rowling nodded, she thought it was just a coincidence! But even if she doesn't believe it, she can't help it, because no one has read her Harry Potter except her, not to mention that the Harry Potter published is still written by someone far away in China, so there is no plagiarism, it can only be said that this is a coincidence.
But is this really a coincidence? I'm afraid that only Ye Tianyi can explain this.
"Aunt Rowling, can you show me what you wrote?" Ye Tianyi showed a hint of anticipation.
