The road leading from the airport to Pyongyang was very deserted, and there were few vehicles, and Zhang Yang thought that it was because it was far away from the center of Pyongyang, but when they entered the city of Pyongyang, the situation was still the same, and Li Bingmin introduced them to some of the landmark buildings and scenic spots along the way, such as the Taedong River and the Theme Thought Tower. When Lee Byung-min introduced the National Library, he showed a sense of pride in his heart, and this kind of national pride is common among the North Korean people. And only they know what they are proud of.

The first impression left by Pyongyang on Zhang Yang was that it was dark, the whole city was dark, Zhang Yang thought it was a power outage, and after asking, he learned that the country's energy is very tight, everything is going on as planned, and it still belongs to the stage of profit-based economy. When I passed by the Pyongyang train station, I finally saw some lights. Zhao Tiancai muttered in front of him: "It's so dark, it's like going to a small mountain village."

When he said this, Li Bingmin's expression was a little embarrassed, and Wu Dezhi quietly pulled Li Bingmin and reminded him not to talk nonsense. In this land, national self-esteem is very strong, and often you don't just say a word. It is likely that their sensitive nerves will be touched.

Li Bingmin took them to the Korea Hotel, this wine is a foreign-related five-star, into the lobby of the hotel, finally found some traces of the current society, the lobby decoration is good, the light dome, gray and white marble polished floor, the lobby can find a lot of Chinese elements, the most surprising thing is that there are escalators here.

Originally, Zhang Yang thought that Li Bingmin would help them arrange the check-in procedures. But Li Bingmin only took them to the service desk and there was no following, which means that they have to pay the bills themselves, Wu Dezhi quietly told Zhang Yang, the North Koreans are very angry, you let them pay for you to arrange accommodation, it is better to kill them, since this is so Zhang Yang, there is no need to force others, Li Bingmin is willing to spend gasoline to take them from the airport here, it is already very rare, people are not rich, you can't force them to slap their swollen faces? Zhang Yaoguan never did things that were difficult for strongmen, and he asked Wu Dezhi to go through the check-in procedures.

Don't look at North Korea as poor, but the level of consumption is not low at all. The check-in deposit is 15,000, and Wu Dezhi asks for a three-person suite for 2,000 per night. This is all RMB, their country's currency is tied to the RMB exchange rate is 15:1, but on the black market it will reach an astonishing 400:1.The average North Korean's salary a month is only 2,005 yuan, if it is converted to the black market, it is five or six yuan ̈ RMB, so Zhang Yaoguan compared his salary with North Koreans and came to a conclusion, "Our country picks a random person to come over and is a millionaire." ”

The three of them came to the room and put their luggage away, they only planned to stay here for one night and plan their operation in North Korea by the way.

Li Bingmin didn't pay for their accommodation. As a landlord, he still offered to invite them to dinner, and publicized his economic situation. I wanted to refuse. Target. However, Li Bingmin was very persistent in entertaining guests, and it was difficult to see people's hospitality. Zhang Yang could only reluctantly agree.

After a short rest, they came to the meal arranged by Li Bingmin. Zhang Yang thought that Li Bingmin would arrange to dine at the Korea Hotel, but he didn't expect that the place he arranged was at the nearby Begonia Flower Restaurant, where the consumption is relatively cheaper than that of Goryeo wine, in fact, the consumption here is also very high in Pyongyang. Li Bingmin took them to a private room on the third floor, the private room is rectangular, and the dining table placed in it is also rectangular, more like a small conference room for domestic meetings, the dishes have been put on the table, there are seven or eight dishes visually, if it is simply Li Bingmin plus the three of them, it can be regarded as a horse, but Li Bingmin came with three escorts, which is also one dish per person on average.

The dishes are mainly seafood, and they are of some quality, because he knows that Zhang Yang is Zhou Xingguo's younger brother, so Li Bingmin is extremely polite to him. He whispered in his ear: "In order to welcome everyone's arrival, I specially invited a beautiful woman to sing!" ”

At first, Zhang Daguan thought that he had heard it wrong, this is North Korea? With their backwardness and closedness, there is actually a set of escorts?

But as the door opened, three beautiful North Korean girls walked in. Zhang Daguan believed that he had not heard it wrong just now.

From the outfits, it can be seen at a glance that two of them are waiters at the meal, and Zhenzheng is the one in the middle, who is about twenty years old, who attracts Zhang Yang's attention. Dressed fashionably, his short hair is very refreshing, and his temperament is quite elegant. It turns out that she is indeed different from the two girls, this is Li Jinshun, the assistant manager of the Begonia Flower Restaurant. He studied in China for three years and is fluent in Mandarin.

Li Bingmin quietly told Zhang Yang that all the families who can work here have a certain background, and most of them are the children of cadres.

Li Jinshun was arranged to sit next to Zhang Yang, and Zhang Daguan was clear. When I got here, people simply ate and drank with him, and he had to master the ruler, otherwise he would definitely arouse people's disgust, and at present, Zhang Daguan did not have that kind of mood.

On the way to the restaurant, Wu Dezhi specially explained to them. North Korea is home to spies, especially in places like the Korea Hotel and the Begonia Restaurant, where foreign guests often hang out, and spies are more common, taking advantage of various opportunities to gather information. Be careful when speaking here.

So Zhang Yang has a heart, in addition to drinking. Li Bingmin prepared a lot of drinks, and the beer was all the same Datong River. Liquor is vodka from Russia.

North Koreans are not very vague when they drink, and when they hold their glasses, they are pouring violently, and the three escorts invited by Bingmin are absolutely dutiful. Holding the wine glass and drinking with Zhang Yang, these people more or less understand some Chinese, and also know the rules of Chinese drinking, as soon as the wine glass is served, there is a sentence immediately, "Dry!" ，

The pronunciation of this word is easy, but it is not easy to pour a glass of vodka into the stomach, and the North Korean people probably want to use their boldness and hospitality to impress Zhang Yang's friends from a strong neighboring country, which is also the first thing Lee Byung-min has made. Be sure to let the guests drink well, and on this point, the people of the two countries have a common understanding. If you don't drink, you can't call it good, so they took turns to toast, and Wu Dezhi insisted on not drinking because he lost his right arm. Coupled with the scarring on his face, others always feel that he is not easy to approach when they see him. So some people took the initiative to ask him for a drink.

Zhao Tiancai only drinks beer.

So the other party's firepower was concentrated on Zhang Daguan. Their first round of bombing apparently did not have the desired effect, seeing Zhang Daguan with vodka in hand. Talking and laughing, several North Koreans can see that this dare is a lot

Zhang Daguan would not take a few of them in his eyes. Seeing that a few people showed timidity, his counterattack began.

In fact, Li Bingmin is not only afraid of Zhang Yang's counterattack, he also feels sorry for these wine money, a bottle of vodka is not cheap, the price is eight thousand five, and five bottles of wine will be seen in a while, looking at Zhang Yang's state, five more bottles are not a problem, Li Bingmin is furious in his heart, eighty-five thousand, plus the cost of the dish, this meal is simply sky-high. Zhang Yang knew this distress from the frequency of Li Bingmin's toast getting lower and lower, and the three escorts were not strong enough to drink at this time, and they drank red ears and red words, often Korean mixed with Chinese.

Li Jinshun came to Zhang Yang with a small wine glass and took the initiative to toe him to have a drink. Smiled sweetly: "Where is Mr. Zhang from?" ”

Zhang Yang said: "Pinghai! ”

Li Jinshun's eyes lit up and said, "Pinghai, I'll go!" Zhang Yang smiled: "I haven't seen you!" This is a little more provocative.

Li Jinshunqiao's face was a little red: "It's very difficult to meet Pinghai so young." However, I have a good impression of Pinghai, where the economy is developing very well. In China, Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Welcome Miss Li to take the time to Pinghai as a guest." I will definitely do my best to be a landlord. Li Jinshun nodded, Li Bingmin proposed that the family should not only care about drinking but also engage in some entertainment, in fact, he was distressed about the wine money, Zhang Yang's evaluation of him was a small family, counting the three escort ladies, a total of ten of them ordered eight dishes. Now that the food is almost eaten, if it is changed to China, I will definitely continue to order. But Bingmin didn't mean to order, and the vodka was willing to continue to take it. Yao Tongjiang beer asked for a lot, and you can drink more beer if you can. If you drink too much, your stomach is still swollen, and besides, Datongjiang is cheap.

That is, Zhang Yang is in a bad mood now, if it weren't for the nightingale, he would have to be ruthless.

At Li Bingmin's mention, Li Jinshun stood up and picked up the microphone and presented the first "I Wish You Peace" to the guests, and her singing voice can only be regarded as average. However, the pronunciation is clear and the pronunciation is also standard.

Li Bingmin said with a drink: "Tomorrow morning, I will arrange for you to visit the leader's statue and present flowers to the leader!" "When I say this. There was a deep sense of honor on his face.

Jang Daguan knew long before he came to North Korea and went to Leader's Square. Offering flowers to their leaders is a must for almost everyone who comes to North Korea, and Zhang Daguan secretly said, "You guys are doing my with pomelo?" Why should I give him flowers? ”

However, seeing that Wu Dezhi quietly gave him a look, Zhang Yang also said anything against it, after all, this is other people's territory, and he follows the customs of the locals. Li Bingmin is also pregnant, they like things, think guests also. Huan, thought that his arrangement was very thoughtful for the guests.

The overall feeling of the meal was rather odd. After saying goodbye to these North Koreans, Zhang Yang and they left the Begonia Flower Restaurant, Zhao Tiancai couldn't help but say, "The people here are too stingy, such a big table of people around eight dishes and I don't know how to order two more." ”
