Chapter 13: Hibiscus out of the water
Bounded by Future Road, to the east is the old airport and the surrounding overgrown wasteland, and even the most daring developers did not dare to plan a property near the old airport in those days, and no one would know that it would take less than two years for the Zhongzhou New District to be put on the agenda.
Within a few years, tall buildings would rise from the bleak wasteland near the old airport.
And the three nearby urban villages will also give birth to the first batch of wealthy second generations in Zhongzhou.
Future Kangnian Hotel, just listen to the name and know that this hotel is located on Future Road.
When it was first completed in '97, it was to get close to the airport and make the hotel business prosperous, but it turned out that it was 99 years, and only a few military trainer planes were still flying in the old airport, and all civilian flights were moved to the new airport.
Fortunately, after all, the Kangnian Hotel is a four-star, and it has only been built for two years, and the relationship with the civil aviation system is good.
That is also the most beautiful time for the future Connaught Hotel.
Although it is not as high as the more than 200-meter-high Yuda International Trade Center in the east, it is also not as good as the earliest five-star stars of "Zhongzhou" and "International" in the city center.
However, compared with the red coral of the railway station and the old Jinqiao and the Great Wall, Kangnian Hotel is second to none in terms of hardware facilities and software services in Zhongzhou.
Karaoke, bowling, disco, bar, café and Chinese and Western restaurants are all available.
There was even a simulated golf course and an indoor swimming room, which was a great thing back then.
At that time, the city's high-end hotels were basically from the airport, so at the new airport, these hotels also had their own receptions. This also means that all the hotels in Zhongzhou that are called on the name and have more than four stars must have a good relationship with the civil aviation system.
Qi Ming's father wanted to negotiate business with suppliers, so Yang Yifu would leave him some coupons within the civil aviation system, whether it was the top Yuda International Trade Center of the year, or the old hotel discounts such as Great Wall and Jinqiao.
Draw a few from under the coffee table, and it will be a coupon with three or four folds. If Qi Ming didn't hold these coupons in his hand, he wouldn't dare to bring Fang Wenjin and them to eat, drink and have fun in the future Kang New Year.
As for the reason for attracting Fang Wenjin, a good girl since childhood, it is that there is also a very magnificent indoor swimming pool here in the future Kang Nian, compared to the water park in the west and Feng Paradise in the north, this kind of open-air swimming pool. The four-star swimming pool in the future Kang Nian, the water in the pool is like a mirror, and you can see through it at a glance.
Basically, there are no people to visit, and the water is clear. Coupled with the brand-new swimsuit provided by the hotel, Fang Wenjin can be said to be like a sea of fish when he comes here.
Although the style of the swimsuit is relatively conservative, it does not prevent her eighteen-year-old girl from swimming in the water in the sparkling, already adult slender figure.
From time to time, she jumped out of the water, and the blue waves rippled around her, and the two slender long legs stepped on the water. A head of black hair was tied up and tucked away in a swimming cap. The beautiful cloud temples on both sides, a few green silks were restlessly floating in the water when Fang Wenjin entered the water, but as soon as she got out of the water, she was close to the white cheeks on both sides, and her skin was like congealed fat in the water.
At first glance, it looks like the youth and immaturity of an eighteen-year-old girl, but if you look closely, you can see that there is also the maturity and tranquility of adulthood.
It is impossible for Fang Wenjin to be the only girl who comes to the swimming pool of Kangnian Hotel to play, as well as the flight attendants of China Eastern Airlines and China Southern Airlines.
There are often stays and even bring their own swimsuits, the whole pool belongs to these girls playing in the water The sound is the clearest and moving, do not look at the light and listen, then the people are itchy and unbearable, if you take a look again, that one by one good figure, the eyes around the mowgli, sometimes jump out of the water, sometimes sink to the bottom, the waves are sparkling on the body, but also show the delicate figure of the style.
Appreciating beauty knows no age, even though the body is eighteen years old, but the heart hides the soul of the year that is not confused. Qi Ming didn't look at the stewardesses who were playing and frolicking in the water, Fang Wenjin only had the hibiscus in the water in his eyes, even though his facial features looked calm and indifferent, but it was difficult to maintain that peace in his heart.
Thinking about his previous life, he went to Shanghai to study, and at the beginning, his contact with Fang Wenjin was quite close. But in his sophomore year, the accident at home made Qi Ming start to close himself.
In order to alleviate the financial burden on his family, Qi Ming has been working part-time outside the school since his sophomore year. Occasionally, Fang Wenjin and Liu Xuqiang organized parties, but Qi Ming was reluctant to use the hard-earned living expenses for eating, drinking, and having fun, so he often excused himself.
Over time, the contact between himself and Fang Wenjin, and even Liu Xuqiang and Zhao Zeming, gradually decreased.
After his sophomore year, Fang Wenjin finally went abroad to study, and since then he has lost contact with Qi Ming.
Sitting by the pool and thinking about these past lives, I can't help but have mixed feelings. In the past, he lit a cigarette but was seen by Fang Wenjin, who had just come ashore from the water, and couldn't help but glance at Qi Ming.
"Smoking, I started smoking at the age of eighteen, and I don't know if it's just to pretend to be cool and handsome, or if I'm really so addicted to it, and sooner or later I will become a black lung."
Fang Wenjin said angrily, as soon as he came ashore from the water, the water was dripping down, and Zhao Zeming immediately stepped forward with a towel on the side. This kid not only grabbed the towel, but also planned to help wipe it.
At this time, Liu Xuqiang, who was on the side, took the menu on the coffee table on the shore, and after looking at it for a long time, he whispered to Qi Ming's side, "Qi Ming, the things here are not cheap, five yuan for a Coke?" Twenty pieces for a fruit bowl? And you see, what is written on it, the water purification gurgling is 269 yuan, the Bodhi jade finger is 169 yuan, and the most expensive Kangnian style is 388 yuan... The whole thing is still crepe. ”
Even if Liu Zeming's voice was small, he was really stopped by Fang Wenjin on the side.
In an instant, she blushed, and she never knew the meaning behind these crepe projects.
"I'm going to change my bathrobe." Fang Wenjin stood up and walked towards the women's department, the bathrobe here was naturally disposable.
Just waiting for Fang Wenjin to come out after changing into a bathrobe, the four of them went up to the second floor. This is the cafeteria of Kangnian Hotel, although it is much cheaper than Yuda International Trade for more than 200 yuan, but the food is not inferior to Yuda International Trade Center.
You can eat abalone cucumber wings, and there is even Korean barbecue, which was not popular at the time, and the meal is very complete.
When they were eating and drinking, Liu Xuqiang and Zhao Zeming quarreled again about cracking the game.
Zhao Zeming said that Liu Xuqiang is a seller of steamed buns and does not understand business operations at all.
Liu Xuqiang said that Zhao Zeming is just a straw bag on paper, and if he follows his father to paint cats and tigers, he will play tricks.
At first, Qi Ming was not at ease, so he let the two of them quarrel, and sat next to him with a sketchbook to write and draw.
Until the two of them became louder and louder, and no one talked about the core issue after arguing for a long time, but it attracted the attention of countless people around them, Qi Ming slapped it on the table, interrupting the dispute between the two, and at the same time, he also shook a few boiled shrimp on the table to the ground.
"Okay, the two of you have been arguing all the way since you went out, and you are still chattering endlessly," Qi Ming said angrily, his voice was not loud but there was a feeling of not being angry and arrogant.
As the saying goes, eating people has a short mouth, and the consumption of the Kangnian Hotel at night is all paid for in unison. Qi Ming slapped the table, and Zhao Zeming didn't dare to say anything more on the side.
"Actually, the two of you talked for a long time, but you didn't get to the point." Qi Ming lowered his voice at this time and said to the two.
"You're not in a hurry, but it's the third day, and there are still so many burned cracked games that haven't been sold." Zhao Zeming muttered and complained.
"yes, could it be those Internet café owners, after getting the cracked game, they started to sell it upside down?" Liu Xuqiang said the doubts that he was holding in his heart.
Qi Ming smiled and took a sip of his drink and shook his head, "Unlikely." ”
After speaking, Qi Ming looked at the two: "If you are the owner of an Internet café and you have these cracked games in your hands, will you sell them to other computer room owners?" If it were me, I wouldn't sell it to anyone else. I'll just keep these games in my own computer room. Don't forget, they are in the most direct rivalry. ”
Hearing this, Liu Xuqiang slapped his thigh, "Yes, why didn't I think of it." After those computer room owners get our games, they can't sell them to others. ”
Zhao Zeming on the side pondered for a moment, frowned and asked Qi Ming: "These cracked games, not only do we have, but others also have them!" Qi Ming: Who did you find to crack these games? ”
As if expecting Zhao Zeming and Liu Xuqiang to react in this way, Qi Ming shook his hand nonchalantly, "It's not important." ”
"It doesn't matter if the game doesn't sell?" Liu Xuqiang said worriedly.
Qi Ming took a sharp puff of his cigarette, put away the sketchbook and put it in his bag, "Want to sell it?" Then deal with it at a reduced price. ”
