Chapter 403 The Beginning of the Game

"So, where do we go now?"

Liu Shuang looked at the pick-up vehicles coming and going outside the airport with a little confusion, and was at a loss for a while.

This is not because she has never seen the world or traveled far, on the contrary, it is because she has seen the world too much, and every action has a clear purpose, so when faced with this situation, she does not know What should I do.

And Huang Qi, as a veteran of the customer line, is much more comfortable handling this kind of thing. I saw him pondering for a while, then took out his mobile phone to open Baidu, and directly entered a line of words:

"Is there any place to play in the north of the island?"

Afterwards, he randomly picked one of the results that popped up, and chose the Palace Museum, which seemed the most worthwhile to visit, and then confirmed the itinerary.

"Let's find a hotel to settle down first, and then go for a walk—didn't we say before that we would investigate the mobile payment environment here? Now is the opportunity."

Liu Shuang nodded and continued to ask:
"What hotel are you staying in? How much is our business trip quota this time? Find a better one?"

Huang Qi smiled slightly and replied:
"Student Liu, you still have too little contact with the front end. Do you still need to consider quotas for business trips of our nature? Just pick the most high-end local ones."

"A man relies on his clothes and a horse depends on his saddle. After arriving at the hotel, he will find a way to rent a better car and set up the pomp first."

"It's not good"

Seeing Liu Shuang's hesitant expression, Huang Qi patiently explained:

"Business etiquette and business practices are very complicated things. To a large extent, a large part of the success of a negotiation has already been determined when the two parties meet for the first time. Of course, we can keep the same as at home. Austerity, however, does not meet our prudence requirements."

"A luxury car or a high-end hotel may not be necessary, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. Compared with the huge benefits of subsequent negotiations, this cost is nothing at all."

Liu Shuang glanced at Huang Qi suspiciously, and asked hesitantly:
"This is not an excuse you made up, is it?"

"The conscience of heaven and earth is really like this. If you don't believe me, you can go to the financial reports of domestic listed companies. Their social entertainment expenses, travel expenses, and vehicle purchase expenses are generally very high. This is the reason."

"Okay. Then follow your arrangement."

Seeing Liu Shuang nodding in agreement, Huang Qi did not hesitate, and went directly to the tourist reception window in the arrival hall of the airport, picked the one that looked the most upscale, and directly pre-booked a top-end Lexus LM with a pre-swipe card, and then booked a travel agency The most expensive Marriott hotel in the recommended range.

The staff of the travel agency thought they were fat sheep from mainland China who came to travel, and they recommended various value-added services to them very hospitablely, while Huang Qi would not refuse anyone who came, and paid by swiping his card one by one.

In just half an hour, more than [-] Ruanmei coins were swiped out of his credit card, which made Liu Shuang's heart hurt, but he himself had a calm expression.

After sitting in the Lexus, Liu Shuang finally learned the mentality of breaking the pot. Anyway, the money is actually nothing to them now. If there is really no way to reimburse it, at worst, it will be treated as a luxury trip. up.

Because there was a driver, the two of them tacitly did not talk about work matters. They just chatted about the upcoming itinerary. When they talked about unfamiliar places, Huang Qi directly lowered the privacy soundproof wall and asked the driver:

"Master, what time does the Palace Museum open every day? When is the right time to go?"

Hearing Huang Qi's question, the driver was stunned for a moment, and instead of answering directly, he asked:
"Are you guys from the mainland?"

"Yeah, come and play!"

Huang Qi and Liu Shuang looked at each other, both of them had puzzled expressions on their faces.

The driver's accent is not like a local, but more like a northerner in the mainland.

The driver was silent for a moment, sighed insignificantly, and replied:
"The Palace Museum is open from 8:4 to [-]:[-] pm every day. You can go there anytime during this period, and you don't have to queue. But if you want to see it, you'd better go early. There are hundreds of thousands of exhibits in it, which is not so easy. You can see it all."

"Then you really have to go early, master, from your accent, it seems to be different from here?"

"Isn't it the accent they speak? My family speaks with a northern accent. I'm used to it. I can't change it, and I don't want to change it. In fact, this is also normal. Basically, our generation does not have the accent that is said on TV. People with an Austronesian accent, you'll know if you come here more often."

Huang Qi nodded slightly, and continued to ask:
"Your parents and elders are northerners? Where are they from?"

"People from Fengtian, they ran away during the Liaoshen battle, and they have been running for decades. I don't know when I will be able to go back."

Huang Qi heard that his tone seemed a little sentimental, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

Because he really couldn't tell whether the "go back" in the other party's mouth was "go home" or "call back".

It's okay if it's the former, but if it's the latter, at this time, there's no need to discuss such a sensitive topic.

Seeing that Huang Qi didn't answer, the driver continued on his own:

"You guys are from the mainland. I'm also a member of the Xiachao Club. There's no recording in this car, so let's talk about the topics that ordinary people want to talk about. It shouldn't be a problem. I want to ask, now our Fengtian What happened to that big plane?"

Hearing the driver's question, Huang Qi and Liu Shuang were taken aback for a moment.

It never occurred to them that the first person they met on this small island and had a real communication with them would be a member of the Xia Chao Club.

Is this too high a ratio, or just luck?
In their previous predictions, if they encountered a green man in the future trip, they would simply keep silent, do not communicate, do not discuss, and just have fun.

After hesitating for a moment, Huang Qi was the first to answer:

"Fengtian didn't make big planes, but COMAC. Fengtian made aero engines, but they were pretty strong. Now their Qilian-2 is the strongest engine in the world."

"This is all public information, and it's all available online."

Hearing Huang Qi's answer, the driver shook his head lightly.

"It's online, it's online, but it's another thing to hear it from your own mouth. Besides, the things on the Internet are true and false, and the more you look at them, the more angry you get, so it doesn't matter if you don't read them."

The two people in the back seat couldn't help laughing, and Liu Shuang couldn't help but interjected:

"Master, you know the public opinion quite well, don't you?"

"I don't know if I can do it? I am also an old man. I used to be a writer with Mr. Nancun. Unfortunately, I can't play with the pen. Later, I became a worker. Isn't this unemployed? I just came out to find a job as a driver."

"I didn't expect to meet people from my hometown! Brother, you are from the Northeast, right? I can tell from your accent."

Huang Qi nodded and replied:

"I'm from HLD."

"Oh, it's not too far away. Next time I have a chance to go shopping. Where are you going to go this time? Tell me in advance, and I'll make arrangements for you."

"Uh, we're not sure about the time. Let's go to the Forbidden City Museum first, and then we'll see the specific arrangements."

"Is there any business?"

Hearing the driver's question, Huang Qi didn't pause at all, and said directly:
"Come here to see the source of goods, and plan to buy some high mountain tea back - we run a milk tea shop and make cold brew tea."

"That's a good business, but how can the tea here compare to the tea in Wuyi Mountain? You are also looking far away."

"The taste is different, try more, there is no harm."

"That's true. If you try more, you will succeed one day. It's a pity that people of my generation have tried for a lifetime, but still haven't found a way out. It's another year of looking north."

Just as Liu Shuang was about to speak, Huang Qi gently pressed her hand.

"If you miss home, why don't you just go home and have a look? It's also convenient to buy a plane ticket now. It only takes a few hours to go back and forth, so pick a weekend and go back."

The driver in the front row sighed slightly and replied:
"It's not that simple! I'm getting old, and my heart is lazy. Besides, the old people are gone, and now there are only thoughts left in my heart."

"The reason why Nianxiang is Nianxiang has to be in an illusion. If you really go there, it won't be beautiful."

"You are a bit philosophical in what you said. You are indeed Mr. Nancun's disciple."

"I'm not really a doorman, I'm just lucky enough to have learned how to write superficially. There's a lot of gossip. I'll rest in the car when you arrive at the hotel. If you need it, just contact me at any time."

"Thanks a lot."

Huang Qi took Liu Shuang out of the car, took his luggage and went into the room and closed the door, the latter couldn't wait to ask:
"something wrong?"

Huang Qi shook his head lightly.

"I don't know. We talked too little, so we didn't find any flaws."

"However, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Think about it, we can be so lucky to meet such a 'fellow townsman' at the first stop?"

"Of course, this possibility cannot be ruled out, but out of the principle of caution, we should keep as little contact as possible."

"None of us are professional intelligence workers. At best, we have received some temporary education before coming here. We are absolutely incapable of intrigue with them. Therefore, shutting up firmly is the best coping strategy."

Hearing his words, Liu Shuang nodded solemnly and replied:
"In fact, I also feel that something is wrong. Brother Qi, you don't have to worry about me, I know it well."

Huang Qi smiled gently and said:

"Don't worry, I have absolute trust in you."

"It's just that we are now surrounded by a pack of wolves, and the information revealed by every word may bring huge troubles, so we must be cautious."

"Okay, go back to your room and pack your things, let's go right away."

"Are you really going to the museum?"

"Of course! Aren't they going to hang us? Playing with me like a scumbag, their rank is too low!"

In the parking lot downstairs of the hotel, the driver held a mobile phone in his hand, and the mobile phone had already dialed a number that did not display the number.

Just as Huang Qi and Liu Shuang thought, the game this time had already started from the moment they landed.
