Chapter 80: The Queen of Flowers
Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the sporadic sound of firecrackers on the street has made Shanghai, which is depressed, somewhat have some New Year atmosphere.
Gunpowder is a controlled product strictly controlled by the Japanese, and the larger fireworks factories have long since closed down. In order to whitewash the peace and show that Shanghai is still prosperous under their rule, the Japanese allowed some small workshops to produce firecrackers in moderation during the Spring Festival.
…………
Not long after Xia Ju arrived home, Xiao Ningning sat in her family's car and brought Xia Ju a food box.
Xiao Ningning: "The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner that your godmother personally cooked, specially asked me to bring it to you." My dad said you are, filial piety is commendable, touching the world or something. In short, if you don't come to dinner, they all praise you, which is really incomprehensible. ”
Xia Ju was a little moved, people's hearts are flesh and blood, not because they are in a hostile relationship, even the least human feelings can be erased, the Xiao family's concern for her makes her feel warm.
After Xiao Ningning left, Xia Ju opened the food box, the food box was two layers above and below, eight steaming dishes, she hurriedly covered the food box again, and waited for Gao Fei's arrival.
Although Xia Ju did not make an agreement with Gao Fei, she was sure that Gao Fei would definitely come to accompany her for the New Year, which was not only a tacit understanding, but also a matter of course for no reason.
Gao Fei really planned to accompany Xia Ju for the New Year. In the afternoon, he drove the Buick sedan that had undergone a big change of face and sent Zhang Maosen and Yin Ping to the Xianle Nightclub.
The full name of Xianle Nightclub is Xianle Wanguo Industrial Company, which operates restaurants, hotels, nightclubs, and even participates in horse racing halls. Among the many subsidiaries, Xianle Nightclub is the largest source of economic income for Xianle Wanguo.
After several years of ups and downs, today's Xianle Nightclub, along with Paramount, Metropolis and Night Paris, are known as the top four entertainment venues in Shanghai.
Starting from the afternoon today, the selection of the Queen of Flowers held by Xianle Nightclub has entered the final stage.
In order to strive for more customers, various entertainment venues also have their own tricks, Paramount from the original only to accept members, to now as long as there is money, you can enter and exit at will.
The metropolis over there has just finished a Miss Shanghai Grand Prix, and the selection of the Queen of Flowers of Xianle here has begun to appear, in fact, it is a gimmick, and the ultimate goal is just to attract guests.
Today's selection of the Queen of Flowers of Xianle Nightclub has attracted many customers, and the nightclub is overcrowded. There are two key reasons why Xianle's selection of the Queen of Flowers is so interesting.
First, the champion selected by the Queen of Flowers today, the so-called Queen of Flowers, will receive a huge prize of up to 10,000 yuan. Second, there will be foreigners participating in the selection, and the huge bonus plus the participation of foreigners in the election is an unprecedented initiative.
Yin Ping and Zhang Maosen have long wanted to come to Xianle to have a look, they used to be afraid to come to this kind of place due to poor pockets, but now the funds are very rich, even if they don't give the funds above, they are enough.
In the car, Yin Ping instigated Gao Fei: "Captain, let's go in and sit for a while, you go to Miss Xia's now, it's still early, Miss Xia hasn't arrived home yet, you still have to wait outside." ”
Gao Fei looked at his watch, there were still about two hours before Xia Ju got off work, so he said, "Let's go, I'll go with you to see what the Queen of Flowers is!" ”
After parking the car, they walked into the Xianle nightclub.
On the stage of the nightclub, neon lights flicker, reflecting the all-glass stage, looking into the distance, Ambilight and brilliance.
The table arrangement under the stage is of different levels, and Hua Dayang can only sit at a small table at the back of the stage, a pot of tea, a plate of melon seeds, and that's it.
If you want to be closer to the stage and see more clearly, the price will vary. The most expensive is the first row, which requires ten oceans, a circle of sofa seats, all kinds of snacks and drinks, and a waitress waiting for you.
Yin Ping wanted to sit in front, but Gao Fei stopped him: "Although it is in the concession, but this kind of place is mixed, it is better to be careful, let's sit in the back." ”
Yin Ping: "Sitting in the back is a pot of tea to wash the stomach, and there is nothing." ”
Zhang Maosen: "Whatever you want, just spend money." ”
Yin Ping: "I can't see the stage clearly." ”
Zhang Maosen: "Are you sixty years old or eighty years old, how can you not see clearly?" ”
Zhang Maosen and Yin Ping laughed, followed Gao Fei to sit at the back table, tea and melon seeds were put on the table, and Yin Ping asked for some drinks and snacks.
When a female singer finishes singing, the lights on the stage brighten up and the drums beat in a hurry.
Miss Master of Ceremonies: "Next, please invite our Begonia Queen to make a grand appearance!" ”
In the spotlight, a bewitching woman wearing a high-slit cheongsam walked onto the stage with her waist and hips. The wild bees and butterflies in the audience immediately cheered continuously, and one of them was particularly harsh: "Miss Begonia is so beautiful!" ”
Gao Fei was very familiar with this voice, and looked at the voice, it turned out to be the Japanese ronin Takahashizawa! It's rare that he didn't wear his Japanese samurai uniform today, and naturally he didn't bring two katana swords.
Yin Ping also saw Takahashizawa: "Why did this old devil come here?" ”
Gao Fei: "This guy may be just like us, just here to have fun." He doesn't know who we really are, so there's no need to provoke him. ”
Takahashizawa sat at the front row of the table, dancing and talking and analyzing, and several people around him did not look like Chinese.
Gao Fei took a closer look, but did not find Nanzao Yunzi, and felt a little disappointed in his heart, if he could meet Nanzao Yunzi here and find a chance to get rid of her, it would save him a lot of trouble.
Knock knock knock! There was another rapid drum beat on the stage.
Miss Master of Ceremonies: "Now we invite our Rose Queen to make a grand appearance!" ”
In the spotlight, a blonde woman dressed in Western-style clothes walked onto the stage, and immediately there was another round of cheers, and several foreigners stood up and applauded, constantly shouting: "Good! Goode! ”
Yin Ping looked at it with great interest: "Damn, I don't know how much it costs for this Begonia Queen to accompany you for one night." ”
Zhang Maosen: "I just asked, sit with you for a while, it costs five oceans, and if you want to make flower wine tonight, you need at least one hundred oceans." ”
"A hundred oceans? Lao Zhang, what do you think? Is it worth it? Because of the abundance of money, Yin Ping was a little moved.
Zhang Maosen: "One hundred yuan of ocean and one hundred bullets, do you say it's worth it?" ”
As soon as he took this accounting, Yin Ping immediately knew whether it was worth it or not: "It's not worth it!" Lao Tzu might as well go to the Xinle Club, find a flower and smoke room, and spend two oceans for a night! ”
Miss Master of Ceremonies: "Now we invite our last queen to appear, that is, our cherry blossom queen will make a grand appearance!" ”
Knock knock knock!
The drums beat on the stage sounded again, and a woman in a Japanese kimono walked onto the stage with small steps.
This time Takahashizawa was close to madness, he stood on the coffee table and shouted loudly in Japanese, and he didn't know what he meant, and several Japanese people around him were also shouting after Takahashizawa.
