Chapter 64: The Bird of Paradise Bar

Although night has fallen, under the bright lights and street lamps of Feiyuan International Hotel, the whole hotel and its surroundings are decorated in a dreamy and gorgeous way, compared to the jade plate in the sky.

Coming out of Chengdu Feiyuan International Hotel, Xiao Rui and Chen Xia couldn't suppress the excitement in their hearts. For them, today is like a dream, not only entering such a luxurious and high-end hotel, eating a meal of more than 2,000 yuan in Louis XV Western Restaurant, but also learning that they can transfer to Stone Chamber Middle School to study and become a cold alumnus, which is equivalent to saying that one foot has stepped into the university gate. When I went home and told my family about all these unbelievable things, I guess they couldn't believe it.

"Xiaohan, thank you so much today, I'll take them back first." Standing at the door of the hotel, although Xiao Lu was a little reluctant, she still said goodbye to Leng Binghan.

"Sister Lulu, don't worry, it's still early, I have to take you to a good place!" Leng Binghan smiled: "Hehe, there is a very special bar opening today, I want to take you to see it." ”

"Well, there's no mission tomorrow anyway." Xiao Lu thought for a while and said, "Where are they, I'll send them back first and then rush over directly." ”

Leng Binghan looked at Xiao Rui and Chen Xia's eyes full of hope, and said with a smile: "Take them to see and learn together, don't be so nervous when you have a holiday, one piece and one relaxation is the way of civil and martial arts." ”

"Yay!" Seeing that Leng Binghan agreed to take them there, Xiao Rui couldn't help but cheer, but when he saw Xiao Lu's phoenix eyes, he said pitifully: "Sister, take us to see, we have never seen what a bar is like!" I promised that I would study hard in the future. Don't worry, from tomorrow onwards, I will double my daily exercises......"

Xiao Lu was actually soft-hearted, and couldn't stand Xiao Rui's bitter pleading, so she bowed slightly, but she still told her again and again: "If you go, you must listen to the greetings, and you can't talk nonsense." She knew that Leng Binghan's contacts were not ordinary people, and she was afraid that her brother would not pay attention to it and lose face to Xiao Han.

Xiao Rui, who achieved his goal, naturally responded repeatedly, and at this moment, even if it was ten times more difficult, he would accept it.

Leng Binghan stopped a taxi, and several people quickly drove towards their destination.

At this time, it was just more than eight o'clock in the evening, and the street lights in Chengdu were bright and green, and the streets were full of vehicles and crowds. As the capital city of the country of abundance, Chengdu is an important town in the southwest, with convenient transportation in all directions, and the exhibition is still very fast, especially in the past two years, under the vigorous investment and drive of Feiyang company, it has quickly developed, and the economy has been quite prosperous.

The bar is located in the area of the Nine Eyes Bridge in Chengdu, named after the bridge over the Funan River. It was founded in the twenty-first year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (400 years ago. As the name suggests, the bridge has a total of 9 holes, formerly known as Hongji Bridge, also known as Suojiang Bridge, which is the largest stone arch bridge on the Jinjiang River. Later, it was built several times, but the size and shape remained the same as the original.

Jiuyan Bridge is one of the gathering places of bars in Chengdu in later generations, and it is also a symbol of Chengdu's night culture, because it is close to the Funan River and Sichuan University, Sichuan Conservatory of Music, etc., there are many students and foreigners, so the bar business is very prosperous. At night, a street by the river is brightly lit. There are hundreds of bars on this street, most of which are open-air or seated, but each bar is small and can accommodate up to a few tables. One by one, you are free to choose the style and price you like. You can sit outside and watch the river view, enjoy the scenery and drink wine.

The bars in Chengdu probably started in the late 80s and early 90s. The bar opened by Leng Binghan is not the first bar in Chengdu, but it should be the first Qing bar in Chengdu.

The so-called Qing Bar is a relatively pure bar, the customer source is mainly people over 30 years old who have a certain cultural accomplishment and ideological concentration, the purpose of their clubbing is not to find excitement, but to find a rich and humane place where you can talk about wine, make friends or calmly meditate, elegant and nostalgic. Unlike ordinary bars, in order to cater to and meet the needs of customers, it combines the functions of karaoke halls, dance halls, restaurants, and even cold drink shops and cafes.

After getting out of the car, Leng Binghan took Xiao Lu and the three of them to a bar called Bird of Paradise at Qiaotou.

The bar is an ancient castle-like gatehouse, with a granite surface attached to it, and a figure with hands raised upwards in the shape of a cheer above the gatehouse. There is a parking lot of several hundred square meters in front of the gatehouse, more than ten cars are parked, and there are many cars that have nowhere to park. It seems that the first day of business was good.

Leng Binghan sighed with emotion, and walked inside, but when he walked to the door, he was stopped by a uniformed security guard.

"Hey, isn't it open today, why don't you let me in?" Leng Binghan was very surprised

The security guard explained kindly: "Today is the opening, but only the guests invited by the boss will be entertained, and it will be officially opened to the public tomorrow." If you don't have an invitation, you're welcome to come back tomorrow. ”

Leng Binghan touched his nose, he didn't expect Wang Yingying to come up with such a trick, but why didn't she tell herself in advance? It's really embarrassing to be blocked outside with friends. He was about to take out the phone to call Wang Yingying, when a voice suddenly came: "Hey, Xiao Rui, Chen Xia, why are you here!" ”

When they looked back, there was a Santana parked behind them, and when the door opened, a well-dressed couple of about forty years old and a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old came down. The boy was looking at Xiao Rui and Chen Xia proudly. And Xiao Rui and Chen Xia saw this boy, and the expressions on their faces were a little unnatural.

"Xiaofeng, is it your classmate?" The very handsome woman glanced at them contemptuously and asked.

"Yes, Mom, this is Xiao Rui and that is Chen Xia, they are all in the same class." The boy named Xiaofeng pointed to Xiao Rui and Chen Xia and said. Then he turned his head and asked, "Do you want to go to this Bird of Paradise bar too?" You can't do without a special invitation. But Chen Xia, if you want to go, I can take you in. When he said this, his eyes were bone-lining, and a trace of disdain flashed in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui pulled Chen Xia and said viciously to Xiao Feng: "Wang Feng, don't dream, Xiao Xia will not go with you." ”

"Xiaofeng is gone, don't patronize and talk to your classmates, we're all going to be late." Wang Feng's mother pursed her lips and urged.

On the side, Wang Feng looked like a gentleman, and his father, who had eyes, saw Xiao Lu's eyes light up, and said, "Since we are Xiaofeng's classmates, we should help." After that, he tidied up his clothes, walked up to Xiao Lu, stood up with a smile on his face and said, "I am Wang Feng's father, Wang Bo, the current deputy director of the Municipal Bureau of Industry and Commerce, may I ask this young lady's surname?" ”

The woman saw that her husband's old habit of not being able to move his steps when he saw a beautiful woman had been committed again, so she quietly reached out and pinched him, and glared at him angrily, but she did not dare to say anything. The dignity of the family is supported by her husband, and she does not dare to offend her husband.

"Hello, I'm Xiao Rui's sister." Xiao Lu took a step back slightly, frowned, and hated this person a little in his heart, so he just briefly introduced his identity, and didn't even say his name.

Hearing that the charming beauty in front of him was Xiao Rui's sister, Wang Bo immediately smiled and said, "Oh, it turned out to be Miss Xiao, it's really a blessing." Do you want to go to the Bird of Paradise Bar? This bar is not simple, but it is not accessible to ordinary people. We happen to be the honored guests invited by the boss, so come with us! ”

Xiao Lu was about to politely refuse, but Leng Binghan on the side hurriedly said: "Okay, Sister Lulu, now we can finally go inside and open our eyes." As he spoke, he gave Xiao Lu a narrow look, and then smiled meaningfully.

Although Xiao Lu didn't understand what Leng Binghan meant, she trusted him very much, so she said to him with a smile: "That's really troublesome Mr. Wang." Her begonia-like charming smile still made Wang Bokai's heart pound, and his heart was as if he had been scratched by a cat a few times, itching uncomfortably.

"No trouble, no trouble at all!" Seeing that the beauty finally spoke, Wang Bo was smiling. Then he took out the invitation letter and handed it to the security guard, and walked in with a few swaggers. Wang Feng also walked in triumphantly, and glanced at Xiao Rui before entering, as if to say: Aren't you not coming? It's not about touching our light yet. The arrogant and arrogant posture made Xiao Rui so angry that he wanted to turn his head and leave.

Leng Binghan grabbed him and asked, "What's the matter, you have a grudge against that Wang Feng?" ”

Xiao Rui said angrily: "This Wang Feng relies on his father to be the deputy director of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, always bullying people, and always pestering Xiaoxia......"

Chen Xia hurriedly defended softly on the side: "I, I ignore him!" ”

Leng Binghan couldn't help but laugh dumbly, but he didn't expect to let himself see a farce of middle school students competing for wind and jealousy. However, judging from Wang Bo's virtue just now, it seems reasonable for Wang Feng to have such a move.

When you enter the door, you will see a long string of candle-shaped lamps, and the continuous yellow light is like a crystal necklace worn by a noble lady, reflecting the psychedelic light. There is a horizontal metal pipe at the entrance and the steps of the hall, and the green light shines through the small holes in the pipe, which is faint but has the effect of embellishment.

Entering the lobby, you can see that the bar is very large, with a total of two floors, with a staircase made of glass and metal brackets running up and down, the simple shape is very cool, and the frosted glass of the steps is durable, and there will be no shaking when stepping on it. All the connections between the wall and the ground are cleverly buried in a light trough, and the dazzling light is clearly projected on the wall.

On the first floor, in addition to the center stage, there are a variety of booths. The sand of the booth is also made of metal as a stand, and the coffee table is a candle holder made of glass in the shape of petals. The spotlight above the head quietly concentrates a cloud of light in the center of the coffee table, and the traces left by the years on the mottled wooden table are clearly visible, telling the story of the old age. The photographs on the wall, illuminated by the spotlight clusters, resemble the stars of a full moon in the night sky.

Lamps are embedded under each glass panel in the bar wine cabinet, rendering the various wines in the bottle to look very delicious and attractive. The orange light tube at the bottom of the bookcase also outlines the warm tones.

On the second floor, there are more than a dozen private rooms, all made of soundproofing materials, and the doors can be closed to completely isolate the noisy sound outside, and the curtain can be pulled out to watch the performance downstairs through the glass windows. The private room is very beautifully decorated, the pale yellow wallpaper is elegant, the glass coffee table is surrounded by half a circle of deep yellow sand, the wall lamp emits a faint red light, and the whole room is also shrouded in a layer of light red veil, which is a little more beautiful.

The bar's era and characterful dΓ©cor will leave everyone who comes in jaw-dropping. Wang Feng's mother couldn't help but widen her eyes and said, "My good girl, how much does this cost?" ”

Only Leng Binghan was calm, because all this was done according to his intentions and spent a lot of money, and many materials were not available in China for the time being, and they were all bought back from abroad, so naturally he would not be surprised.

It took them a while to wake up from the shock, Wang Bo's eyes flashed a trace of pride, and he said loudly: "Hehe, the boss here is not simple, the background is amazing, you are considered to have a long experience today, if you don't follow me, it is impossible to come in." ”

Wang Feng and his mother also felt very face-saving on their faces to be able to get the invitation to come here to see and see.

Since it is not officially open, there are not too many people in the bar, sitting together to drink and chat.

A few people casually found a booth and sat down, and immediately a uniformed waiter came over, politely handed over the list, and said, "Guests, welcome to the Bird of Paradise, I hope you can have a pleasant evening." Today, all purchases are 50% off, what do you need? ”

When Wang Feng's mother heard that she was asking for money, she immediately became anxious, stood up and said, "We are the guests invited by your boss, and it will be very face-saving to come, so why do we need money?" After saying that, he looked at the price on the list, and exclaimed: "Wow, a glass of boiled water costs five yuan, why don't you grab it?" ”

The waiter was not annoyed, and patiently explained: "It is precisely because it is not open to the public today, only for VIPs with invitations, so it is only a 5% discount, and there will be no discount after today." And the prices of our birds of paradise are all reviewed by the Price Bureau, and there will be no problems. ”

She seemed to want to say something, but Wang Bo shouted in a low voice with a straight face: "You shut up for me!" ”
