Chapter 120: Ashtray
Island Airlines Boeing 747-400D First Class
This is the first time to take a large passenger plane across the ocean to go abroad on the flight from the capital of China to the island country Tokyo, and the adaptability of Brother Xiaoye in Yuetan is good, and this Boeing 747-400D can be called the most advanced and safest passenger aircraft of the same era.
The U.S. imperialist was only put into use three years ago, and the Boeing 747-400D introduced by the island airlines last year is the only one among the airlines of Asian countries, compared with the 200 and 300 747 of China International Airlines, the 400D engine thrust, sound insulation effect and cabin space have been improved by more than one grade.
What made Jiang Yelin puzzled was that on the air giant of the island country airlines, after the plane was changed from the ascent stage to level flight, the safety buckle above the head and the non-smoking warning light went out, Nima This is really strange, the old man in a suit and leather shoes with a big belly on the seat next to the first class directly took out a cigar and called the beautiful island flight attendant to light a fire for himself, which started to smoke?!!
Doesn't that mean you can't smoke on the plane? Jiang Yelin has been to the magic capital and Hong Kong Island once in the past few months, and he took Huaxia Airlines, do you remember that it is non-smoking throughout the whole process, and the airline with the little devil actually does not smoke? !
I already knew that Jiang Yelin felt stupid, and before getting on the plane, he stuffed a box of Panda brand cigarettes into the pocket of Qian Cangai, who quietly saw him off, and of course, there was also the Langsheng lighter, all of which were contraband after passing through the airport security check.
"Miss! Please bring me a box of Huaxia, I want a soft shell! Jiang Yelin's eyes were sharp, and he looked at the tray in the hands of the stewardess who came over in the aisle, in addition to the small bottle of foreign wine and juice, there was actually smoke, and he suddenly came to his senses.
"Sir, I'm sorry, in the first class cabin of Island Airlines, we only provide Seven Star, Marlboro, Jian Pai and Sanwu cigarettes, and we don't provide soft-shell Huaxia cigarettes......" The petite and soft-looking island flight attendant apologized vigorously.
Seeing this, Jiang Yelin had no choice but to take a box of Marlboro casually, what island country Seven Stars, that is a woman's cigarette? Brother is such a man and only Marlboro can deal with it, the cigarettes provided on the flight are the same as foreign wine, they are all mini-packed, and a small box only contains 5 sticks.
Jiang Yelin opened the seal, held a cigarette, and began to habitually touch his pockets, only to remember that before the lighter went out of the customs, he stuffed it with the panda cigarette to Qian Cangai, at this time he heard a click, the stewardess handed over a cigarette lighter, Jiang Yelin went up and lit a cigarette, only to find that there were smoking passengers around, even if the cigarettes were brought by themselves, the cigarettes were really lit by the flight attendants with a special cigarette lighter.
"Capitalism is really rotten and degenerate, and you can still smoke on a plane! I'm not afraid of the fire on the plane......" Jiang Yelin was half-lying, Mei-Mei took a puff of cigarette, and the smoke rings he spit out gathered into two Chinese characters above his head: "Shutan" "Disturbed, may I ask, does Mr. need an ashtray?" The flight attendant of the island country came over with a blue and white porcelain ashtray, half-squatted in front of Jiang Yelin and asked, the smile on his face was extremely kind. Hmm, let's put it down, I thought I could just pop the ash into the ashtray on the armrest...... Your Chinese is good" On the armrest on Jiang Yelin's left hand, there is a stainless steel box similar to that that that can be turned down on the train, but the volume is a little smaller. "Thank you for the compliment, the flight attendants of Island Airlines must be proficient in Chinese and English daily language, can you put it here?" Then I'll put it down! There was a thin layer of water in the ashtray that the petite stewardess had put down, and it was clear that the service in this first class cabin was very attentive and attentive.
Jiang Yelin is not so interested in the study of ashtrays, but blue and white porcelain is different, at this time this goods habitually looked at this ashtray, but I think it is a little strange, to say, ashtrays are cheap a few pieces of more than a dozen, that kind of crystal or high-grade materials made of zuò, tens of thousands of them, but blue and white porcelain ashtrays......
Porcelain is Jiang Yelin studied for 20 years, the Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties until the Republic of China and contemporary China, whether it is an official kiln or a civilian vessel, this blue and white porcelain is the largest number of porcelain types, the blue and white porcelain ashtray on the island country in front of you, it is a little strange to look at.
The strange thing is that this ashtray does not look like a brand-new handicraft, but a bit of a quaint old meaning and glaze in it, Jiang Yelin wondered, to say that the ashtray is no matter how early, it is also the product of the appearance of paper cigarettes.
After smoking dry smoke, you can directly knock on the soles of your shoes or on the legs and feet of tables and chairs, and you don't need an ashtray for hookahs......
Thinking of this, Jiang Yelin snuffed out the cigarette roll in his hand, picked up the blue and white porcelain ashtray and looked at it carefully, the glaze was bright, the cobalt material under the glaze was gorgeous, the shape was open, and the pattern was mackerel algae.
Jiang Yelin stretched out his right hand to probe, squinted his eyes and tasted carefully, but was startled by the information fed back by the golden eye in his palm: "Mineral porcelain, age 640 years old, size 2.5 cm high, inner diameter 12 cm, outer diameter 13 cm, wall thickness 1 cm"
Nima, what kind of ashtray is this ashtray, this is the Yuan mackerel algae pattern pen wash!! Jiang Yelin suddenly realized, and felt incredible, in the capital Pan Jiayuan, he may not be able to pick up one or two small pieces of Yuan blue and white in a year.
What's the matter, I'm going abroad for a walk at this time, and I've just taken off, and the ashtray sent by the flight attendant of the island country is actually a Yuan mackerel algae pattern pen wash that has been looked away?!
Jiang Yelin grabbed the Yuan blue and white pen in his hand, looked left and right, there were not many passengers in the first class, the cigar man in the big belly and the suit and leather shoes was already asleep with his head tilted at this time, and several other men and women were also closing their eyes or reading books and listening to music, and they didn't see anyone with such an "ashtray" in front of them.
Jiang Yelin pressed the call bell above his head, and after a few seconds, the soft-looking island country stewardess just now came to him along the aisle, still a half-squat service, Jiang said in his heart, what are you doing, the skirt is so short, and it is a tight skirt, you are squatting, I am looking at the spring light under the skirt, I am still watching? ! "Sorry to interrupt, do you need anything? If you don't smoke, can you take the ashtray away for you? The stewardess's smile is flawless, in fact, she is well-trained, and her squatting posture is both seductive and hazy, and she can't really see anything, nothing more than black stockings and long legs...... "Hmm, this young lady, may I ask this thing, do you have more on your flight?" Jiang Yelin pointed to the "ashtray" in his hand and asked, trying to make his tone sound less curious. "Oops, I'm really sorry, in fact, this thing, I don't know if it was left by the passenger on the flight, and I don't know which flight it was, it seems that it has been stored in the storage box a long time ago, and today the ashtray is not enough, so I took it out temporarily and used it, which makes you laugh!"
The stewardess's answer directly made Jiang Yelin petrified, Nima's thing was actually left on the flight by an unknown passenger! How do you let my brother get this down?
"Sir, do you still smoke? If you don't smoke, I'll take this ashtray back......" Seeing Jiang Yelin looking at herself in a daze, the island country stewardess said softly.
"This ...... This young lady, you see, my friend also took your flight last time, but said that from a market stall in Kyoto, the blue and white porcelain ashtray bought for me was pulled on the flight, I didn't expect to meet here today, how do you claim this thing? ”
Jiang Yelin Panjiayuan has been practiced since he was a child, and his words are not ambiguous, brother wants this ashtray, do you have any way?
When he said this, the two $100 green sticks rolled in Jiang Yelin's palm were directly stuffed into the palm of the flight attendant's hand, and the sudden skin contact between the two sides made the flight attendant feel ashamed and angry and almost sit down on the aisle.
The management of the island airline is quite advanced and strict, Jiang Yelin is okay if he does not stuff these two hundred dollars, but the words of the plug make the little girl frightened, and her words tremble:
"No, no, sir, we have strict discipline and we are not allowed to accept tips from guests without permission...... This ashtray, because it was left by a guest, if you can't come up with valid evidence, I'm afraid you won't be able to take it......"
"I'm sorry, I was abrupt, but miss, this ashtray was indeed left behind by my friend, and he was entrusted by me to buy it from the island market...... I just don't know how it could be so coincidental? ”
While Jiang Yelin said this, he took the two hundred dollars he stuffed from the stewardess, but his right hand was like a trick, and he turned out a small note from the inner side of the "ashtray", and handed it directly to the island country stewardess, who was still a little at a loss.
"You see, because it was something that a friend brought from Tokyo, my friend was afraid that he would make a mistake, so he also pasted a small note with my name on the inside, and just now I accidentally saw this ashtray and found a small note, so I was sure that it was something that my friend left behind......"
This small note was just taken out of his pocket by Jiang Yelin just now, fortunately, it was just an old note with the name written before, and at this moment, he had an idea to touch it out as evidence, which was a bit of a blessing to the soul, otherwise the new note before the ink dried was stupid, and the flight attendant would not believe it.
At this time, the petite stewardess was indeed a little dumbfounded when she looked at the small note in her hand, and felt that her brain was a little insufficient, she blushed after bowing, and ran back to the front cabin with the small note handed to him by Jiang Yelin, and soon, the beautiful purser with a taller figure and exquisite makeup came to Jiang Yelin.
"This gentleman, I'm sorry to trouble you, this ashtray is indeed left by the first-class guests on which flight, because I don't know the specific flight, so I can't find the owner, but you said that this is a gift from your friend from Tokyo, if there is proof, of course we hope to return it to its original owner!"
The purser is well-informed, although he can afford to sit in the first-class cabin, and the money of a plane ticket may be able to buy a hundred such handicraft ashtrays, but just relying on the small note that Jiang Yelin didn't know where to find it, he has to prove that this thing is his, but it is not that simple.
Jiang Yelin regretted a little that he underestimated the management of Island Airlines and the consciousness of the flight attendant, if he hadn't tried to stuff $200 to the flight attendant just now, it is estimated that the purser's eyes would not be so vigilant and stern now.
