Chapter 34 Victoria Bay
Hong Kong's buses are very popular, but this language has become a problem, either English is spoken or Cantonese is spoken, although I also have some understanding of Cantonese pop songs, but it really allows you to communicate in reality, it is no different from foreign languages, what was the original Daming faction, the Four Heavenly Kings, many of the smash hit songs are Cantonese, but I can't let me call a car and use the lyrics, my uncle is even more cola, and he speaks Chinese with a foreign flavor, others can't understand it, but it makes me bad. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
As luck would have it, I finally found a taxi driver who could speak Chinese, and people knew that we were from the mainland, so they started talking in the car.
Because there is still a long way to go to the uncle's grandfather's house, we told him the interesting stories on the road, and we may also unconsciously talk about the matter of subduing demons and catching ghosts.
The uncle hurriedly stopped and asked, "How much?" ”
The taxi driver did not answer directly, just said that his wife worked as a secretary in a company, and the boss lived in a wealthy area, and recently because he moved to another villa to live, but there were always strange things at home, and he always felt nervous inexplicably.
When the uncle heard this, he didn't say a word, "We took it, we took this case!" ”
I'll take whatever I say, you know? But he had already said such big words, and for his sake, I could only smile at the driver.
"Then can you go and show it today?" The driver was still in a hurry and wanted to take us there immediately.
We thought, anyway, there is time in the summer vacation, and we can still earn money, so instead of bothering my uncle and grandfather first, it is better to find a place to earn some money first, so that people can look shabby.
Crown car all the way to the east, took us to a rich area, are a piece of independent small villas, we thought this is the place, but the driver limped, took us into another area, before we saw the house, the sound of the water first entered the ear, and then, a beautiful harbor appeared in our field of vision.
Yes! Is this the legendary Victoria Harbour, I exclaimed, the driver praised again and again, this little master has good eyesight, well-informed, this is the villa area of Victoria Harbour, and our gentleman who needs help, lives in this place by the mountains and rivers, to say, how can such a place be bad feng shui, but, I don't understand, you have to go and see it!
The car drove all the way to the gate of a villa, and there was a gatekeeper who opened the door, it seems that the driver is very familiar with this place, and everyone here seems to know him. He drove straight to the front of the villa, parked the car in the parking space, and then got out of the car with us and walked in.
This is a one-family villa, not only has a lawn in front of the house, but the driver said that there are two large swimming pools in the back, and behind the pool is the back mountain, and this villa can also be said to be occupied according to Feng Shui.
I just wanted to be happy, and my heart said, this driver seems to know this feng shui very well, but in fact, the knowledge in this is great.
The housekeeper let us sit on the sofa in the living room downstairs, and brought us snacks, we don't know whether to eat well, or not to eat well, eat, afraid of people's jokes, don't eat, I am indeed hungry, so the Lord stared at the taxi driver, the driver seemed to understand, so he picked up a piece of it and ate it, we saw that we could eat, so we also took a piece of snacks.
The butler quickly came out of the other room and said politely: "The boss has to participate in a very important PART tonight, so he can't come back, let the two of you stay here, and he will come to see you tomorrow." ”
I said in my heart, okay, this night's accommodation is a good place, not to mention such a high-end place. I was so excited that I ate several more bowls for dinner.
After dinner, the driver said that he was going home first, and he would come to pick us up tomorrow, we said in our hearts, we don't know how many days it will take to finish it, and then we will talk about it, and I didn't say anything more, and after saying goodbye to him, I went back to my customers.
I don't know if this family loves to show off, give me such a big house as a customer, listen, it's for me, not for us, that is to say, one uncle, one for me, and the two of us are still facing Victoria Harbour, such an environment is something I would never dream of.
In fact, I am still familiar with Victoria Harbour, the reason is because I like geography more, I have read a lot of travel books, I know that Victoria Harbour (Victoria Harbour) is located in Hong Kong between Hong Kong Island and Kowloon Peninsula port and sea area, from Lei Yue Mun in the east to Tsing Yi Island to Hong Kong Island in the west. It is narrower between the middle Tsim Sha Spit and the central ring. Victoria Harbor is the largest seaport in China and the third largest in the world, after San Francisco in the United States and Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. As Hong Kong is a natural harbour due to its wide and deep waters, Hong Kong is also known as the "Pearl of the Orient" and "the world's three major night scenes".
And the name of Victoria Harbour comes from Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom. Victoria Harbour is a wide and beautiful port, and in the northwest of the harbour is the Kwai Chung Container Terminal, one of the world's largest container shipping centres. Victoria Harbour dominates Hong Kong's economic and tourism development and is one of the keys to Hong Kong's emergence as an international metropolis.
This port is free to enter and exit all year round. In its early years, the British saw the potential to become an excellent port in East Asia, and later took Hong Kong from the Qing government to develop its maritime trade in the Far East. Victoria Harbour has always influenced Hong Kong's history and culture, and has dominated Hong Kong's economic and tourism development. Every day at sunrise and sunset, the busy ferry crosses between the north and south shores, and the fishing boats, cruise ships, sightseeing boats, 10,000-ton giant ships and their whistles weave a wonderful picture of the prosperous scenery on the sea.
Victoria Harbour has a long coastline, and there are countless attractions on the north and south shores. On the shore of Hong Kong Island, there are modern high-rise buildings and the landmark Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Wing, as well as the nostalgic Star Ferry Pier. Kowloon is home to the Hong Kong Museum of Art and the Hong Kong Space Museum. Victoria Harbour has blue skies, white clouds and clear water during the day, and small boats and 10,000-ton giant ships enter and leave the harbor without interfering with each other, and at night they are even more brightly lit, creating a magnificent night scene of the "Pearl of the Orient". There are many types of marine sightseeing boats in Hong Kong, among which the Star Ferry is the most popular. The Star Ferry mainly travels to and from urban tourist spots such as Central, Wan Chai and Tsim Sha Tsui, and has been listed as one of the "50 must-see attractions in life" by National Geographic magazine.
For more than 100 years, Victoria Harbour's role has gone far beyond an ordinary port. The area around Victoria Harbour is the centre of Hong Kong in terms of location and topography, it is an important natural resource of Hong Kong and a part of Hong Kong people's lives, with millions of people crossing the north and south shores every day.
In front of such a port, even the night has become blurry, as if it has been embellished with colors, and we live in such a house, I don't understand, how can such a house be said by the boss that feng shui is not good?
