Chapter 230 St. George's Day
One day is enough for Burgas to go to Georgia after crossing the Black Sea. The filming of the "007" crew will not start until the middle of the month. Zhang Mai decided to rest in Burgas for a few days.

Zhang Mai didn't need Dvikov to accompany him during the day, and went to the city's parks and beaches by himself, and found the long-lost happiness of being alone again.

On the morning of May 5, Zhang Mai walked out of the hotel alone as usual, but was stopped by Dvikov:

"Zhang Mai, today is our St. George's Day in Bulgaria, also known as Literacy Day, and it is also our country's Army Day. There will be a grand celebration ceremony on the street. Do you want me to come with you?"

"St. George's Day? Isn't this festival only in England and Catalonia?"

Zhang Mai is no stranger to St. George's Day. This festival is April 4, which is also the National Day of England. In the UK, the traditional custom is to wear a red rose on one's lapel, or to admire the St. George's cross flag.

"St. George's Day was once as important as Christmas from the early [-]th century. This tradition gradually declined by the end of the [-]th century. However, within the Orthodox Church, St. George is still commemorated for a very important saint. "

As soon as Dvikov explained Zhang Mai, he understood that Bulgaria is the stronghold of the Orthodox Church.

"It's okay if you don't want me to accompany you, remember to go back to my friend's restaurant early in the evening to celebrate the festival."

Dvikov also knew that it was rare for Zhang Mai to stroll alone for a few days, so he finally let him go with consideration.

The commercial district and municipal square in Burgas are full of strong festive atmosphere, and Zhang Mai had a great time wandering in them.

The Bulgarian diet is deeply influenced by Turkey. It is greasy, salty and full. As an athlete, Zhang Mai naturally tasted it.

But tasting Bulgarian red wine, watching the beautiful girls all over the street, and listening to the performance of local artists, you can appreciate the culture and customs of this country on the coast of the Black Sea.

Bulgaria is a mysterious and romantic country, known as "the country of roses" and "the country of fruits". Relaxation and warmth are the unique characteristics of Bulgaria.

Due to the passage where the Eurasian continent meets, coupled with the integration of multi-ethnic groups for thousands of years, countless ethnic migrations have made Bulgaria diverse, and beautiful girls with blond hair and blue eyes and black hair and blue eyes are all over the streets.
Out of ten young girls, eight or nine beauties can be selected. It is not an exaggeration for Bulgaria to enter the world's "Country of Beauty" list.

rose, beauty...

Zhang Mai, who was dazzled all day long, was thinking hard on the way back to the hotel...

Is there my share?Am I finally going to meet an unforgettable love in this "Kingdom of Roses" by the Black Sea?

After Zhang Mai returned to the hotel, after a short rest, he and Dvikov went to his friend's wine and dance bar, a quaint place in the old city.

Bulgaria is proud of yogurt, roses and wine, and the Bulgarian nation is very warm and generous.

Thanks to the bread and honey presented by the host when he entered the door, Zhang Mai was not overwhelmed by the huge amount of white wine that followed.

Yes, in Bulgaria, people regard bread as a very sacred food, and they will send bread to each other to express their congratulations on big days.

In Bulgaria, people often say "I have eaten so-and-so's bread" if they are favored by others.

When Zhang Mai and Dvikov came in, the restaurant was already very lively, girls and boys in national costumes were singing and dancing, with melodious singing and clear flute.

While drinking mild white wine, Zhang Mai swayed to the music and dance.

The air in the restaurant smelled sweet, and the girls danced so beautifully that Zhang Mai's drunkenness gradually became stronger.

Bulgaria's traditional national clothing, men are the oldest white shirt and black trousers covered with a vest, the white fabric is embroidered with different colors and patterns of embroidery, women's is Skuman and Shaya, the skirt is knee-length At the bottom of the skirt, there will be a color-matched embroidered apron on the outside of the skirt, which is very beautiful.

It just made Zhang Mai inexplicably think of the scene where men and women of ethnic minorities in Huaguo sang to each other.

The rhythm of Bulgarian dance is very fast, and the footsteps will also tap quickly to the rhythm. At the same time, it will cooperate with many hand and arm movements, which is neat and beautiful.

Bulgarian dinners are characterized by eating and watching, and the waiter brings the meal quickly.

The first dish is the usual vegetable platter, with fresh vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, green peppers, olives, etc., and then topped with vegetable oil and other seasonings, and some cheese shreds are sprinkled on top, and then eaten with sauce , It's a bit like Northeast cuisine.

The next staple food also increased in price, all kinds of delicious barbecue, grilled fish and chicken soup were placed in front of Zhang Mai, and they were all Big Mac types.

Dvikov and his friends were eating and drinking, and they spoke Bulgarian, which Zhang Mai could not understand. Zhang Mai could only cast his eyes on the dancing girls in the arena.

After dancing to each song, Zhang Mai must be the one who cheers and applauds the most. Good wine, beauties and beauty... Oh Big Mac!In this way, Zhang Mai has integrated into the atmosphere of the Bulgarian nation.

Good times always pass quickly, and after more than 3 hours, even the strongest pot-bellied man will burp.

The last program of "Night at the Bar" began, dancing girls in costumes lined up in a long line, and the bar boy came to the guests with a plate...

"What does it mean?"

Zhang Mai asked Dvikov with a confused face.

"It's a traditional custom on St. George's Day. If you fall in love with one of these girls, you can choose one from the gifts on the tray and give it to the girl you like. If the girl accepts it, she will go with you."

Dvikov explained in detail, but Zhang Mai, who was on the hormone, didn't notice the narrow smile in the corner of his eyes.

"What if I don't like any of them, or the girl doesn't like me?"

Zhang Mai is trying to contain the small universe in his heart that is about to explode.

"Then you have to put no less than 1000 levs (3945 RMB) on the tray to leave!"

Dvikov smiled more clearly now.

that whoever?Now I really can’t blame me, the Bulgarian people support free love, if you don’t fall in love, you will be fined!
Zhang Mai was so passionate that he followed Tray boy to the girl without hesitation, and even picked out the beautiful girl with black hair and blue eyes who had the sweetest appearance.

Anyway, the language barrier, I just go straight!

Zhang Mai picked up the rose from the only item on the tray, and looked at the girl opposite...

wrong!The black-haired girl was shaking her head vigorously, her expression was full of anticipation...

well!What the hell?It's over, my first one died before it happened.

Zhang Mai sadly picked up another gift—it was a book, but he saw the girl nodding her head harder, her face still a little anxious...

okay!Book, book, I know I have already lost, girl, you don't have to pretend to be a good person here.

The handsome Zhang Mai stuffed the book into the girl's arms, and turned back to Dvikov with a sad face:

"Let's go, I can't stay in this place for a minute."

Dvikov took care of the finishing touches, and Zhang Mai left the restaurant without looking back—this sad place where he was deflated in front of a woman for the first time.

Zhang Mai is also a person who wants face, so even if Dvikov loudly dissuades him from behind, Zhang Mai has no hesitation...run away.
