Chapter 164: Please go out and turn left
"What fifteen floors, it's seventeen floors, you count them again!"
Li Jiahua corrected Zhang Weiwei's surprised words and said firmly.
Zhang Weiwei counted it again and said with certainty, "That's right, it's fifteen floors." ”
The two argued.
Who has ever seen such a tall building!
So big, so tall.
They have already been shocked by the buildings everywhere in Wuhan, this is the city! Now, a building so tall appeared in front of them, and their excitement and excitement were beyond words.
Li Lu said with a smile, "Don't fight, just ask there, and you'll know." Or there is an elevator, look at the elevator floor number. ”
"Elevator?" Zhang Weiwei and Li Jiahua's eyes suddenly lit up, "What is the elevator?" ”
"For example, if you want to go to the third floor, you only need to press the button on the third floor, and the elevator will automatically rise and stop automatically after reaching the third floor." Li Lu explained with a smile, "It's coming soon, I'll teach you how to use it later." ”
Lin Peisen came back to his senses and was taken aback, "Third uncle! Where do we live? ”
Li Lu nodded and said, "That's right, it seems that the Hankou Hotel is undoubtedly a landmark in Hankou, and we have also seen the modern hotels in big cities." ”
"No way, right? Third uncle, that's estimated to be very expensive! Lin Peisen's teeth chattered slightly, and he said very unconfidently.
"Big mouth, you are useless, you are also a person with a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, a 10,000 yuan household a month, a 10,000 yuan household a month, and you are afraid of living in a better hotel." Li Jiahua sneered and sneered, but everyone could hear that he was "forcing a smile", although he said it with confidence, but his trembling voice completely exposed him.
"Second uncle......" Lin Peisen smiled awkwardly, he didn't dare to talk back to Li Jiahua, and even, he didn't dare to talk back to any of the Li family brothers and sisters, so he could only smile awkwardly.
Li Jiahua was bottomless in his heart after all, he pretended not to care and asked, "Third child, how much can it cost to stay for one night, this hotel is also a high point, and it is nothing." ”
The car suddenly fell into an indescribable tense atmosphere.
Soon, Li Lu understood what was going on.
Even if Zhang Weiwei prides himself on being a city native and a child of the military industry, he suddenly finds himself in a super city like Wuhan and sees a neat and orderly building complex that does not know how many streets there are in the urban area of Lugang, and he will feel inferior from the bottom of his heart.
Li Jiahua and Lin Peisen's feelings are particularly strong, they are nervous, excited, excited, and scared like frightened rabbits timidly looking at everything strange around them, and even the same kind of people walking or riding bicycles on the street with the same appearance make them feel strange, and there is an invisible and deep gap between each other that cannot be crossed.
Even if they are sitting in a million-level luxury car, even if Lin Peisen, who has the least income among them, can earn back a two-story small western-style building in a month - the cost of building a two-story small western-style building of about 100 square meters will not exceed 20,000 yuan.
Why did the term nouveau riche gradually become synonymous with derogatory terms such as rich and uncivilized, low taste, and flamboyant?
When parking, the security guard of the parking lot guided Lin Peisen to park at a specific position, but Lin Peisen didn't care at all, the steering wheel was beaten, and the brakes under his feet were not brought and he stopped in another position.
Lin Peisen took the lead and walked to the hotel lobby, not only because he should do the little things such as booking a room, but also because he was unwilling to lose the face of the rich in front of the third uncle.
He is a rich man, and he dares to stand up and point to his nose and say - I am a rich bastard!
The emotion of self-esteem wounded from the shame of inferiority in his heart was driving him. He never forgot who he was as a farmer, and he thought he could afford to stay in the most expensive hotel in the big city.
Not only him, but also Zhang Weiwei and Li Jiahua have similar emotions.
Li Lu remained silent, he couldn't know their psychological feelings better.
"Sister, I want the most expensive room for you here!" Lin Peisen strode to the front desk, although the palatial lobby shocked his heart, he tried his best to control it, and used strong willpower to support his words and deeds to be more natural and generous, and more casual, which can highlight the identity of a rich man!
Lin Peisen's words attracted the attention of several neat guests wearing trousers, white shirts and black leather shoes on the side, and they all looked at Lin Peisen in surprise.
Li Lu stood a little later, Zhang Weiwei and Li Jiahua on either side of him.
What kind of dress are the four of them like?
I hadn't bathed for several days, I hadn't shaved for several days, and the linen clothes worn by most peasants at this time were chosen to facilitate long-distance travel and sweat absorption, and the feet were liberated rubber shoes, and they were covered in dust, and even the dirt on their hands was very obvious.
Where did this redneck come from?
The market-oriented Hankou Hotel does not need a letter of introduction, as long as you have money, you can check in. A clock hanging on the wall behind the front desk shows the time in several major time zones, indicating that this is a hotel that is highly likely to be foreign.
The three Wuhan girls at the front desk are more than one logo, cheongsam-style short-sleeved overalls, with a little powder on their faces, their faces are white and naturally red, their figures are all straight, their teeth are white when they smile, and they are checking in or checking out for guests.
At this time, they all looked at Lin Peisen and noticed his disheveled clothes, unkempt gray face, and big mouth.
Big-mouthed guns, where did the mentally problematic rednecks come from?
The melon-faced girl who was facing Lin Peisen across the front desk was a little scared, and her first reaction was that it would definitely be no good for these mentally challenged people in front of her to mix in. She hurriedly glanced at the security guard at the door who was already paying attention to the situation here, her lips trembled a little, and she didn't dare to say a word to Lin Peisen.
Lin Peisen saw that the girl in front of him actually ignored him, his self-esteem was hit hard, and he slapped the front desk hard, but his voice was not too high, after all, he was facing a beautiful girl, he said, "Sister, I want housing, please give me the most expensive room, I want to have four beds." ”
A well-looking guest on the side couldn't help but laugh when he heard it.
Li Lu's brows furrowed slightly, but he still didn't say anything or do anything. But Zhang Weiwei and Li Jiahua beside him breathed a sigh of relief.
From the moment they entered, it was already very obvious that everyone around them was looking at them with strange eyes. It was like an animal to be seen.
Two security guards who were waiting solemnly over there strode over.
Lin Peisen didn't know, he saw that the girl at the front desk didn't react, so in a hurry, he took out all the money in his pocket, and grabbed a large handful of ten yuan denominations, a thick stack, and put them on the front desk.
The girl at the front desk was shocked.
Lin Peisen didn't stop yet, he went to dig out other pockets, and cleaned all the pockets on his body, most of them were ten yuan denominations, only a few yuan of change found from buying things on the road. The banknotes were piled up at the front desk like a hill, and Lin Peisen secretly breathed a sigh of relief - this should be enough, right?
He had no idea at all. The most expensive hotel I have stayed in is a guest house with a tow, a piece of five days. It's not that he has a lot of cash on him, it's not that he has any hobbies, but that he basically spends money on everything along the way.
The girl at the front desk had very sharp eyes, and she could probably see that these banknotes were definitely more than five hundred yuan! That's almost half a year's salary!
She subconsciously covered her mouth and took two steps back, looking at Lin Peisen in horror - at this time, Lin Peisen was suspected of being a person who had illegally obtained money in her eyes.
Fang laughed The guest's eyes were also a little straight at this time, he was not uncommon to have rich people, and more people had seen them, but he had never seen a person with a few hundred dollars with him. Ten dollars can cost half a month in the 80s, and a few hundred dollars is a veritable huge amount of money.
The security guard wanted to step forward and twist Lin Peisen's arm, however, it was absolutely impossible for this kind of thing to happen in front of Li Lu. Without his orders, Zhang Weiwei and Li Jiahua stepped forward, blocked the security guards, and protected Lin Peisen behind them.
Zhang Weiwei has been on the battlefield!
Li Jiahua is a ruthless man who has beaten more than a dozen nearby villages since he was a child!
The security guard was stunned and did not dare to take half a step forward.
At this time, Li Lucai walked over slowly, "The way your hotel entertains guests is quite chic. Do all guests staying at the hotel have to talk to your security personnel first? ”
The guest who was sneering was slightly stunned at this time, walked over, and said with a smile, "There is no thing, there is no thing, our Hankou Hotel is the most high-end hotel in Wuhan, and the first-class service is well known." ”
"I'm sorry, there may have been some misunderstanding." He smiled and stretched out his hand to Li Lu, "Oh yes, I'm the duty manager of Hankou Hotel, Bi Xiaolong, fortunately." ”
Li Lu narrowed his eyes and shook his hand.
It turned out that he was the manager on duty, but he kept watching the jokes and didn't show up.
Bi Xiaolong said to the girl at the front desk, "Check in these gentlemen, the most expensive room has four beds." ”
He couldn't help but laugh a little as he spoke.
The girl at the front desk came back to her senses a little and whispered, "Manager Bi, we don't have a four-bed ...... in our room."
Bi Xiaolong patted his forehead as if he had just remembered, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I forgot, only the presidential suite in my hotel has four beds, and it is a very large suite, with one large, three small and four rooms......"
As he spoke, he asked the girl at the front desk, "How much is the store price?" ”
The girl at the front desk read Bi Xiaolong's eyes, understood it, and replied, "One thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight." ”
Lin Peisen immediately exploded, "One thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight!" Why don't you grab it! ”
Zhang Weiwei stared at Bi Xiaolong coldly, and said coldly, "Are you a black shop!" ”
"This gentleman must not say that." Bi Xiaolong pointed to the price list on the wall and said, "We are clearly marked with prices, have you seen it, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight RMB, there is nothing wrong." ”
Li Jiahua smiled and said, "Bullying us can't understand, right?" ”
Bi Xiaolong spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, it's indeed this price." Don't you want the most expensive room? The needs of our guests are our goal, and the Presidential Suite is indeed the most expensive room in the hotel. ”
He laughed silently, and felt extremely funny. More importantly, he hopes that in this way, he can make these guests who are dressed in bad clothes hurt the image of the hotel. He is very good at handling things in a gentle way rather than being forceful.
All three looked at Li Lu.
Bi Xiaolong also saw that the youngest sword-eyed young man in front of him was the one who spoke among these people. In his profession, this point is obviously possessed by the eyes of people.
"Okay, then the presidential suite." Li Lu smiled faintly and said.
Bi Xiaolong raised his eyebrows slightly, "No problem, but there is one thing to explain in advance, the items in the presidential suite are relatively expensive, so the deposit is quite a lot, you pay 5,000 yuan together with the room money, except for 1,888, and the rest as a deposit, and return it in full when you check out, if the items in the hotel are not damaged and there is no other consumption." ”
He was heartbroken, and quoted a price that scared him.
5,000 yuan, two brand-new large tiled houses.
Even the three front desk girls opened their mouths wide in surprise.
Bi Xiaolong thought, now you should know that this hotel is not the place where you countrymen should live, right?
Seeing Li Luwu smiling freely, Bi Xiaolong thought that he was going to retreat in the face of difficulties, changed his sincere tone, and whispered, "Comrade, I see that you have probably traveled a long way, and it must have been very hard." You see if this will work, there are a few hotels when you go out and turn left, you report my name, no need for a letter of introduction, one or two yuan can stay for a night, that's good. ”
It can be seen that his original intention is not to make things difficult, but to stand in his perspective to get rid of these unqualified guests in a gentle and reasonable way. He saw the hundreds of dollars on the front desk, but he didn't think that this was a group of rich people, no matter how he looked at it. He saw a lot of countrymen, borrowing from all the people he knew, and scraping together a few hundred dollars to treat a seriously ill relative.
There are very good hospitals in Wuhan, and these people probably asked someone to send medical expenses for the seriously ill, but they acted so impulsively because they were angry for a while.
Bi Xiaolong obviously thought that he was thinking about these young men.
However, he didn't realize that if these young men were well-dressed, they would never have been treated like this, at least not with such suspicion! He had already treated his guests from a superior point of view, but he didn't realize the fatal point.
Lin Peisen was so angry that his chest was rising and falling violently, he walked up to Bi Xiaolong and glared angrily, "Don't look down on people!" I make more money in a month than you make in a year! ”
Sure enough, it was a nervous abnormality.
Bi Xiaolong maintained a polite smile and said, "No, no, no, this gentleman, as the duty manager of the Hankou Hotel, I definitely don't look down on the guests, you misunderstood." Of course, I believe that you make more money in a month than mine, sir. I also do things in line with the purpose of better serving guests, as long as I enter the door, I am a guest. ”
Lin Peisen stiffened his neck and said, "Then go through the formalities for us!" Isn't it just a few thousand dollars! ”
"Yo, where did you come from, young man, you don't have a small tone."
A middle-aged man in his forties who was holding a cigar in his hand walked over with a smile on the other side, and it was Lu Jinqi, deputy general manager of the Hankou Hotel.
"Boss Lu." Bi Xiaolong immediately greeted him respectfully.
Lu Jinqi looked at the small pile of banknotes on the table in front of him, looked at Lin Peisen again, his eyes swept over the faces of Zhang Weiwei and Li Jiahua, and finally fell on Li Lu's face. He obviously saw at once that the person who spoke among these people was Li Lu.
Bi Xiaolong came to Lu Jinqi's side and explained the situation to him, "These gentlemen want to live in the presidential suite, I quoted the price, and then we couldn't agree on the price. I advise them to go out and turn left to find a suitable hotel. ”
Lu Jinqi nodded slightly, looked at Li Lu, and said, "Young man, you brother has a lot of tone, I don't think you came to stay in my hotel, right?" ”
Hearing this, the corners of Bi Xiaolong's mouth twitched - it is worthy of being a waste who does not learn and has no skills, and he can't speak when he is old, doesn't this kind of speech cause contradictions, and it is in vain to say something to me.
This Lu Jinqi is far worse than the big boss, Bi Xiaolong sighed in his heart.
Li Lu smiled slightly, "In your opinion, what are we here for?" ”
Steady Taishan's tone was flat, his eyes were indifferent and steady, such momentum was by no means an ordinary countryman. No matter how wasteful Lu Jinqi was, he still had the eyes of people, he smiled and said, "Young man, the most expensive room I have here is the presidential suite, and the room fee plus deposit is 5,000 yuan." Why don't you and your brothers go out and discuss first? ”
Li Lu ignored him, looked at Lin Peisen, and said, "Asen." ”
Lin Peisen understood, he waited for the third uncle's eyes, and walked towards the LC80 parked outside!
They're millions of people who throw them in the car!
