"Good! I've tried it too, but I've never drunk this coffee before. Su Hang picked up another glass of ice water and took a sip and poured a cup of coffee into his cup.

Su Hang took a sip of ice water, the inside of his mouth was cold, and the residual taste of the Blue Mountains on his tongue just now was diluted by the ice water, and the cool feeling made his tongue very comfortable. I picked up the Turkish coffee and took a sip, the first slightly sour taste came from the tongue, followed by the bitter feeling, this feeling has not been for a long time, a bit like the feeling when I drank coffee for the first time, the feeling when I drank coffee that time was as bad as diluted Chinese medicine, but after the first few times, this feeling was no more, and the taste sensation transmitted by the tongue was already familiar.

I didn't expect to feel the taste of the beginning again today. This Turkish coffee is my first time drinking, and I have never heard of it before, let alone drunk it. This time, I was able to taste coffee that I hadn't drunk before, and I would like to thank Dean Charles!

When Su Hang took the third sip, he felt that he had drunk something similar to powder, and looked at Osmond and said that he had drunk a powder-like object, and Osmond explained with a smile: "Chu, when I first drank Turkish coffee, I also asked my mentor like this, and my mentor said that Turkish coffee is to grind the coffee very finely, put it directly into the pot and cook it until it is boiled, and then turn off the fire and pour it into the cup. The residue is not filtered out, and the coffee itself is already finely ground, so when you taste it, most of the coffee powder will sink to the bottom of the cup, but sometimes, you will still drink some, and this is also a characteristic of Turkish coffee. ”

"Chu, when Turkish coffee is drunk, it does not add any milk or other drinks, but only adds some sugar when cooking, depending on personal preference." When Osmond saw Su Hang reaching for the milk, he immediately said.

"It's the first time I drank Turkish coffee, but I didn't expect there to be so many points to pay attention to in it!" Su Hang shook his head and said with a smile.

"Chu, Turkish coffee is not only drinkable, but also used for divination in the local area, after the coffee is drunk, the local people predict good luck and evil for the shape and pattern of the residue left at the bottom of the cup, and as far as my teacher knows, only Turkish coffee can be used for divination." Osmond felt a little embarrassed just now, and changed the subject.

"Coffee can also be used for divination, but this is the first time I've heard that anyone can do divination?" Su Hang asked in surprise.

"My mentor told me that some of the locals in Turkey do it on their own, and some go to find a coffee soothsayer, and you can often see coffee soothsayers answering questions in the local coffee shops. My mentor also learned from the locals, but the time was too short and I didn't understand it. Osmond said as he picked up his coffee and drank it.

Time flowed like water, and in a blink of an eye, it was already nine o'clock, Su Hang and Osmond talked a lot about coffee, and the Turkish coffee was quickly drunk by the two in small talk, Su Hang inadvertently glanced at the clock, only to find that it was already nine o'clock in the morning, Su Hang looked at Osmond and said with a smile: "We even forgot the time to chat, I hope Corporal Lynn will not wait too long." ”

"Chu, Corporal Lynn should be in the restaurant, after he came back last night, he and I drank a few glasses of whiskey in my room, and said that we would meet in the restaurant the next morning, and we would go to the restaurant to find him!" Osmond told the two of them what they had agreed to last night.

"Okay, let's go to the restaurant." After Su Hang finished speaking, he got dressed and Osmond left the room and went to the restaurant.

Su Hang and Osmond walked down the second floor, and saw Corporal Lynn coming downstairs at the staircase on the first floor, Osmond looked at Corporal Lynn and asked, "Is it okay?" You drank half a bottle of whiskey last night. ”

"I've been drinking whiskey a lot, and getting drunk doesn't happen." Corporal Lynn said with contempt on his face, he was very dissatisfied with Osmond's suspicion of his drinking, this was his disapproval!

"You haven't had breakfast yet! Me didn't either, I'm a little hungry now, are you guys going to the restaurant together? Corporal Lynn said.

"I went to find Chu in the morning and saw that he was drinking coffee alone, so we talked about coffee and drank coffee until now, and I originally planned to go to the restaurant to meet you." Osmond touched his stomach and looked at Corporal Lynn and said.

"Coo" Su Hang's stomach rang at the right time, Osmond and Corporal Lynn looked at Su Hang, but at this moment, the sound of "Coo" rang out continuously, and it also came out from the two of them, Su Hang laughed "hehe", "It seems that we can't go if we don't want to!" The stomach protested! ”

Osmond and Corporal Lynn laughed as the three of them walked towards the dining room on the first floor.

When Su Hang and the three came to the restaurant, there were already many people in the restaurant. Several people came to the innermost part of the restaurant and sat down, Osmond beckoned to the tall waiter not far away, and the waiter came over with a smile, "Sir, do you need anything?" ”

"Bring me two cinnamon rolls, a muffin, and a glass of milk," Osmond said, looking at the tall waiter.

"Give me a mushroom hash brown, a muffin, and a cup of coffee." Corporal Lynn continued.

"What about you, sir?" The waiter looked at Su Hang and asked.

"I ordered the same as this gentleman, but I want one cinnamon roll and two muffins." Su Hang looked at Osmond and said to the waiter.

"Okay, gentlemen, please wait!"

Ten minutes later, when the Su and Hangzhou people were chatting, the tall waiter pushed the dining cart to the table of the Su and Hangzhou people, and put the breakfast ordered by several people in front of several people at a time, looked at the three of Su and Hangzhou and said, "A few gentlemen, do you still need anything?" ”

"Another cereal! I want milk," Corporal Lynn said unceremoniously after a moment's thought. I didn't expect that the waiter was actually just a routine question, who knew that he really had something.

"Yes, sir," the tall waiter said with a smile on his face, then turned to push the food cart to leave.

When he saw the waiter turn around from Su Hang's angle, his face was slightly ugly, probably because he was blaming Corporal Lynn for why he didn't say it just now, and now he has to run again.

Su Hang pouted at Corporal Lynn, and looked at the waiter who was about to leave, Corporal Lynn was stunned. "Wait a minute!" Corporal Lynn took £5 out of his trouser pocket, handed it to the tall waiter who turned around when he heard the voice, and said, "It's yours." ”

"Thank you, sir, and I wish you a happy and happy day to come!" The tall waiter took the £5 and said with a happy smile on his face. I am very happy in my heart, the little unhappiness just now has disappeared, which is equivalent to half a month's salary! Even in a high-end hotel like Goering, the salary is only £10 a month. In this era of frequent wars, there are really not many, even if this job is already the best at the bottom of London, but there are many people like him, who can only get a salary of 1 or 2 pounds a month.

On a small hillside, surrounded by a large green lawn, the environment is peaceful. There is a park-like building, which Corporal Lynn says is the observatory of the Greenwich Observatory, but it is off-limits.

Although several people from Suzhou and Hangzhou could not enter the observatory to visit, they took a group photo with their cameras and took a commemorative photo. Through the guardrail, you can see the copper wire embedded in the ground in the park——— 0° longitude, Osmond pointed to the 0° longitude on the ground and said: "The Greenwich Observatory is the starting point of the geographical longitude in the world. My teacher said that there are many countries and regions in the world, and the time is not uniform, and astronomers in the world have come up with a convenient way to record it that is acceptable to everyone, that is, to use Greenwich Mean Time as the standard and set it as Universal Time. ”

"Your teacher won't have ever entered the Observatory, will he?" Su Hang said casually.

"He didn't tell me to go in, but he seems to know a lot about it." Osmond said.

In Greenwich Park, Su and Hangzhou left a lot of commemorative "memories", for which Su and Hangzhou will be treasured. Sitting in the carriage, the three of Su and Hangzhou returned to the hotel before lunch.

Yaheng returned to the hotel before the group of people in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and Corporal Lynn recounted the morning's tour while eating lunch, and spent lunch time chatting. Chatting while eating like this can be said to be the British are used to it, if you don't say a word at the dinner table, it will be difficult for people to eat, and during this time in the UK, Suzhou and Hangzhou have been accustomed to this kind of catering topic.

In the afternoon, several people sat in the house, drinking coffee and chatting about various interesting things in life, Osmond and Su Hang respectively took out the interesting things they had experienced to share, and the time was spent in small talk, in the middle Su Hang asked Yaheng why he didn't go in the afternoon, and Yaheng's answer was that the shopkeeper was not there.

Dinner was not eaten at the hotel, but I took a carriage to the tavern, where the dishes were so rich that people would not want to leave, and everyone who had eaten said it was good! At dinner time, there are still a lot of people in the tavern, not much more than lunch time, Boss Tang is too busy to take care of them in Suzhou and Hangzhou, and several people did not sit together to chat, and went back to the hotel directly after the meal.

Before going back to the room to rest in the evening, Yaheng told Su Hang and the others in advance that he didn't have to wait for breakfast tomorrow, and he would leave early if he had something to do. Su Hang asked if he needed to go together, but Yaheng said that he could, Su Hang didn't insist, so he went back to the house to rest.

Like yesterday, Su Hang in the morning held the unfinished "Wuthering Heights" in his hand and continued to read, there was a cup of Blue Mountain coffee with milk on the coffee table, the morning sun was not very sufficient, the lights in the house were naturally on, and the Hindley in the book made Su Hang feel disgusted, but he was not surprised at all by his ending, even without the revenge of the male protagonist Heathcliff, alcoholism and gambling would make Hindley, a gentleman, gradually enter the abyss.

After reading the chapter that I didn't finish yesterday, I drank the coffee in the cup, called the waiter to clean up the room, and walked alone to the restaurant downstairs.

After breakfast, at the suggestion of Corporal Lynn, the three of them played billiards in the billiards room in the hotel. For billiards, in the UK, just like people talk about the changeable weather after dinner, this has been deeply rooted in life, and billiard halls will be built in many big hotels for people to have a little pastime when the weather is bad and they can't go out, and bars are one of the places people often go to.

As the name suggests, the billiards room of the Goering Hotel is divided into hall style, and private room, as the name suggests, is that many people play billiards together, divided into a table and placed in the whole hall, but no one makes noise, no one throws confetti everywhere, everyone just pays attention to the table, even if there are people who do not play, they are quietly watching others play.

There is no noise and noise, mainly because the backstage of the Goering Hotel is very hard, and no one will shout and scream here, which will affect other people, even the nobles of noble status will not do such a dishonorable thing here, if it spreads, it will be ridiculed, which is very shameful for the British who have always taken gentlemanly etiquette as the standard.

This also led to the fact that when Su Hang came to the billiards hall for the first time, he found that in addition to the sound of the collision between billiards, there were almost no other loud noises. This surprised Suhang that it deserved to be a big hotel! There is also a billiards hall in the small town of Irish Town, but it is nowhere near as good as here.

The three of Su and Hangzhou came to the door of the billiard hall under the leadership of a tall and plump waitress, and the waitress looked at us and said seriously: "Gentlemen, you are not allowed to make loud noises or smoke in the billiard hall, please pay attention!" ”

Good! Corporal Lynn looked at the waitress and nodded. Corporal Lynn knew very well that this hotel was not comparable to other hotels in London, but it had the shares of the high officials of the House of Lords and the royal family, and no one dared to disobey the rules here.

The waitress gently pushed open the door and walked in, Su Hang and the three followed, Su Hang saw that there were already two tables of people in the innermost, and a few people were watching, the room was very quiet, only the sound of the cue hitting the billiards and the billiards colliding with each other, of course, there was a slight sound of hitting the billiard table, but it could be ignored, because it was not very loud. The waiter took us to the bar, and after choosing our clubs, led us to a table next to the bar, against the wall.

There are rows of small sofas against the wall, and between every two small sofas, there are small tables with vases and all kinds of flowers. Corporal Lynn took the cue and started the first game with Osmond, Su Hang absentmindedly ate the apple in his hand, thinking about how Yaheng's business was going, and he didn't pay much attention to how Osmond played billiards.
