Chapter 781: Houhai
In the back sea of Kyoto, the moonlight is like mist.
It's very hot in May, and it's only cool at night.
The water surface is sparkling, surrounded by many old Kyoto alleys, and the large willow trees are very thick, and the breeze blows, and the sound of hulala.
Further inside, there will be a lot of red and green lights, the sound of drinking, accompanied by the sound of musical instruments and singing, and the beautiful scenery and fine wine, it seems to be a paradise on earth.
Kyoto is a fast-paced city, but it is also a place where the dragon and the tiger are hidden.
From the nobles, the young masters of the chaebol, down to the common people, the inexpensive laborers, or the ordinary employees and small white-collar workers of the 9-to-5 office workers, every time in this season, they like to relax and have a drink at night.
And here, it has obviously become a holy place for people to gather, beautiful scenery, wine, warblers singing and dancing.
Kyoto's old alleys have a strong sense of history and old-fashionedness, or there are boats on the artificial lake, and the lights are bright, and they become a beautiful scenery in the water.
There are many restaurants on the shore, most of which say so-and-so bars and so-and-so restaurants, and the cries of various special foods and snacks are endless, adding a touch of fireworks.
Then there are some cultural and antique artifacts, which are all imitation souvenirs, and the price on them has become sky-high.
This is for some "foreigners" who come to China for tourism.
For the hawkers, foreigners' money is easy to make and easy to fool.
A random third-rate vase from Jingde became a long-established blue and white porcelain after some boasting.
Both Android and Apple are available. 】
There is often news that foreigners have spent tens of millions of dollars to buy a "big porcelain bowl", and they will dance elated because of this, and finally drink a pot, boasting about how smart they are and how those foreigners are lacking in heart.
Over time, the three elements of food, wine, and antiques have become the characteristics of this place, and it has become a famous tourist attraction with the light of those old buildings in Kyoto, benefiting the people of Kyoto who make a living by pulling rickshaws in this area.
Among the three elements, fine wine is the first in Houhai.
This sake does not refer to the sake that can be made here, or how good the sake is, but rather the atmosphere in which the sake is made.
The world knows that there are two good places to drink in Kyoto, so lively, the workers' gymnasium is the first choice, good mood, naturally come here.
The most attractive thing is the so-called "encounter culture" here, which is deeply loved by some "petty bourgeoisie".
The so-called petty bourgeoisie, as the name suggests, is a group with small capital.
They do not need to be persecuted by the bottom of the society and have a regular income that is not low.
Although it is less than those upper-class people, it is more than enough than those 9-to-5 small white-collar workers. They often flaunt the words "wealth and freedom" to themselves, and they will not cling to the high-ranking officials and nobles, but they have great prejudice against those who are struggling in the bottom society.
In their view, only when a person achieves "financial freedom" can he truly feel the beauty of this world and deserve to have the right to speak in this world.
The reason why they do not cling to the dignitaries is because they want to show their own compulsion, and "freedom" is the highest state they pursue, and they will talk about it for a long time.
They look down on the bottom of society because they feel that they are also born as human beings, they all have hands and feet, and the reason why they struggle at the bottom is because they don't work hard enough, have no thinking, and don't make progress, this kind of person deserves to be like this, and they don't deserve sympathy.
And these bars in Houhai attract the most are these "petty bourgeoisie".
Because the mood here is in line with their forced style.
Among the many bars, the closest to the shore and the largest one is: Listen to the Wind.
The owner is a native of Kyoto's old alleys, and since it became famous here, the Tingfeng bar has opened on the shore.
The three-storey ancient style building, the huge hall and hall, the environment is first-class, the audio equipment is first-class, and the service inside is also first-class.
Of course, the price is also much more expensive than other bars.
A bottle of Tsingtao beer outside for 2 yuan, here it costs 10 yuan a bottle, 88 yuan a bottle of dry red in the mall, it will start at 300 yuan at this point, casually put on some fruit plates, melon seeds and peanuts and other snacks, and then get some barbecue fried skewers, the table is slightly richer, and the consumption is not a thousand yuan can not be lowered.
In this era when the income of ordinary people is only about six or seven hundred, those who can come here to "relax" and just to "relax" are counted to listen to the wind.
Still, every night when night falls, the Listening to the Wind Bar is almost full.
The point is that the boss is very good at doing business and is also very good at soliciting business.
It is said that the Tingfeng bar is aimed at young girls, and you can send alcohol according to your appearance.
As long as the girls come to the Tingfeng bar, not only do they not need tickets, but they can also get a prepared cocktail for the best looks, and they can also eat the fruit plate carefully prepared in the store for free, and the girls with ordinary looks can receive a few bottles of Tsingtao beer, even if you are a dinosaur, as long as you are a young girl, you can also receive a small food and drink.
It is precisely because of this kind of management method that the Tingfeng Bar reaches out to the love of young girls.
Especially those girls who are more confident in their appearance.
There are a lot of girls, and the men who are wandering in Kyoto naturally like to go here.
Coupled with the labels of "encounter" and "romance", many people have fantasized that they can find their true love here.
This fantasy exists for young people, both men and women.
It's just that the men are too naïve in their fantasies, and they think they have a chance when they come here.
As for what exactly the girls are thinking, it is not known, perhaps...... They just want to sit there and drink and listen to songs.
Another reason why Tingfeng Bar is so popular is that the singers invited here are very high-quality.
It is said that many singers sang here before the fire was popular.
On the background wall of Tingfeng Bar, there are also photos of many bar owners and celebrities.
It's just such a bar, if it is placed in a foreign country, maybe there will not be so many stories.
But this is Kyoto.
To be a leader in the industry in Houhai, Kyoto, or even a landmark, it still takes two brushes.
It is not difficult to see from the group photo of the bar owner that his connections are still very strong.
In the hall of Tingfeng Bar, there is a woman wearing a white gauze and a fairy spirit sitting in the middle of the stage, holding a guitar in her hand, and singing softly like a small bridge and flowing water, which makes people linger.
The woman wore a veil, and her eyes were clear and clean, like a crescent moon.
The fingers are slender and the skin is delicate, as if they do not eat the fireworks of the world.
Her singing voice is quiet, with a hint of loneliness.
The people in the bar were chatting with their heads down or looking out the window.
And more of it, listening to the woman's singing while drinking, his fingers gently tapping the beat.
Yan Tingfeng stood on the second floor, holding a wine glass and looking down at the woman downstairs, with a slightly intoxicated look in his eyes.
"It's been a long time since I've heard such a clean singing."
Yan Tingfeng closed his eyes slightly and muttered to himself.
