Battle of the Luxury Cruise Ships (1)
Three days later, Xiao Tao and Yuan Wei, who were dressed in white suits, yellow shirts, and blue ties, each pulled a suitcase, got out of a taxi, and walked towards a passenger ship at the dock.
The white leather shoes under the feet of the two made a crisp footstep sound on the ground. However, the neat and brisk footsteps were soon drowned out by the noisy noise of a chaotic crowd.
"I heard that only 500 people were invited to this big passenger ship, and they could enjoy a luxurious trip! In addition to the crew, there are also maintenance personnel, waiters, bodyguards, doctors, cooks, and I heard that there are nearly two hundred of them! β
There were envious words from the crowd, which made Xiao Tao, who was hidden behind sunglasses, smile a little. Those well-dressed men and women who walked in front took out exquisite invitations one after another with elegant and calm postures, and stepped on the red carpet onto the escalator of the passenger ship under the jealous and eager eyes of others.
"Hello sir, please show your invitation!"
There were many onlookers, but there were not many people with invitations in their hands. Xiao Tao and Yuan Wei almost didn't stop, and after the people in front of them walked up the escalator to board the boat, the two walked over one after the other. Among the seven or eight bodyguards in blue suits, the one who was the leader politely stopped the two of them and said softly.
"The people who can get on this passenger ship are either rich or expensive! Even some rich people are not necessarily qualified to get on the boat! I heard that a boss spent a lot of money, and it was not easy to get an invitation letter, without a certain social status and family background, it is not so easy for ordinary people to get an invitation, after all, this is a gathering of high society! β
There was a sigh from the crowd, but it was also because people with invitations were not allowed to bring their partners unless there was more than one invitation. Otherwise, it is estimated that those of them holding invitations will definitely be surrounded by a large number of people and a lot of money will be smashed on them.
"Yes, gentlemen, please, have a good journey!"
After checking the invitation in his hand, there was no problem, and the man in the blue suit led by him smiled on his face, turned sideways and let go of the way, and let Xiao Tao and Yuan Wei walk up the escalator of the passenger ferry.
"Hello sir, here's my invitation! Excuse me, when will the boat depart? β
Behind Xiao Tao and the two, there was another blonde and blue-eyed, handsome man, nearly forty years old, the two mustaches on the upper lip showed a bit of elegance and handsomeness, looking very similar to a certain Hollywood movie star, causing a scream from many girls in the crowd, and the man also showed a variety of flying kisses, and the cheers in the crowd suddenly became a little louder.
"Huh? The disguise technique is good, and a lot of money has been invested! β
Hearing the movement from the crowd behind him, Yuan Wei glanced back sideways, hidden in the gaze behind the lenses, and said softly with a little smile.
"It's really everyone, it seems that you have to be careful this time!"
The blonde man who came up immediately afterwards, dragging a small suitcase in his hand, caught up with Xiao Tao and the two in three or two steps. As if the situation was in a hurry, after saying sorry, the man squeezed past the two of them and walked towards the deck cabin of the ship first.
"It's a character who can 'touch' our things!"
Xiao Tao looked at the figure of the man who quickly walked away, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth. Then he stepped on the splint with Yuan Wei, identified the direction of the left and right, and said as he walked.
"There are a lot of people here and the dΓ©cor is luxurious, and it deserves the price! Why, I'll go and 'talk' to him in a while, but I can't be underestimated so easily! β
At the tables not far away, a few people who knew each other sat well, and some snacks and drinks were placed on the table, so that they could talk here. Xiao Tao glanced around, didn't see any acquaintances, then turned his head to look at Yuan Wei and said. But before that, you still have to put your luggage away and familiarize yourself with the location of the room.
"It can be regarded as a star-rated hotel standard, just this environment, it feels like it is not in vain!"
The room is a two-bedroom room with a separate bathroom, sofa seats, tea cups and drinks, two writing desks, and a built-in refrigerator. This made Xiao Tao nod very satisfied, and then while familiarizing himself with the layout of the room, he checked whether there was any listening equipment or anything like that.
Their room is on four floors, with three floors below and two floors above. In addition to restaurants and places for leisure and entertainment, there are also meeting rooms and gyms, as for the swimming pool below, it is estimated that there will not be too many people going there this season, so Xiao Tao and the others did not plan to go there.
"Well, I'll see you in the restaurant in an hour and a half, let's go around separately first!"
Yuan Wei walked in the direction of the upper deck, while Xiao Tao walked towards the lower deck, where there was a warehouse and a crew lounge.
There are nearly 300 rooms here, and it takes a lot of manpower and material resources to clean them up. Fortunately, most of the people who come here are high-income groups with some status and economic strength. Whether it is to leave a good impression on others, or to pay attention to his words and deeds, along the way, Xiao Tao has not seen any uncivilized places, or the phenomenon of littering at will.
The rooms are located at the bottom, most of them are shared by two or three people, sharing the living room and bathroom. The general price is lower, and it is also those who have found a relationship and have someone to vouch for, and they have a rest room these days. The rooms located above are all rooms with a preferred view and a natural low price, mainly suites with luxurious configurations. On each floor, there are single rooms, but only those with special statuses or some cleanliness habits will choose to live.
Xiao Tao's feet were not fast or slow, and it took about half an hour to finally turn the three floors below.
On the way, I saw a lot of busy bodyguards and waiters, including not only European and American faces, but also many Asian faces. A few of them were still speaking familiar Mandarin, and when they saw Xiao Tao's attention turned to them, they politely said hello. His expression was also a little excited, obviously because he saw the familiar compatriots of the motherland here, and he was a little inexplicably close.
After looking left and right and seeing no one, Xiao Tao stopped at the door of a room on the second floor, pretended to arrange his collar, pinched his throat with his hand, and then knocked on the door.
"Hello, waiter! The bathroom in the room needs a break, is it convenient to come in? β
One long and two short knocks on the door were learned by Xiao Tao just after paying attention to the way those waiters knocked on the door. The voice is also a little bright, so I don't worry that the people inside will not be able to hear it.
There was a movement in the door, accompanied by the sound of slight footsteps, Xiao Tao took two steps back with a smile on his face, lowered his head slightly, put his hands in front of him, and looked polite and polite.
"No, I think the bathroom is good! Come and take a look, I have another question for you! β
A blonde man, wearing a burgundy nightgown, seemed to have just changed his clothes and was ready to sleep, and the door had not been fully opened, so he muttered in a whisper.
"Okay, sir, I'll take a look at the bathroom first!"
Xiao Tao was wearing a white navy hat on his head that he didn't know where to get, and the shirt and tie on his body had also been changed, with a white fitted suit, he really looked like a crew mate.
