Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon
Chapter 257: Chinatown and Phoenix Building
Three cars shuttled through the bustling London city. I don't know how long it took. After the cars turned a corner, they saw a huge red Chinese archway.
Wu Hongyi didn't stop, and drove the car directly to the street inside.
With this entry, the surrounding environment suddenly changed, and a strong sense of familiarity came to his face.
The car moved slowly, and Xia Yu constantly observed everything outside through the window.
The decoration styles of the shops on both sides of the road are full of Chinese culture. The signboard of each store has Chinese characters in the center, and a line of English is added under the Chinese characters.
Two big red lanterns are hung under the eaves at the entrance of each store, and some couplets with red paper are still pasted at the entrance of the store. The words dragon and phoenix dancing on it look refreshing and pleasing.
Moreover, along the way, Xia Yu found that the shops on both sides of the road were large and small Chinese restaurants, supermarkets, hairdressers, Chinese medicine stores, Chinese souvenir shops, and several large Chinese archways, all of which conveyed a message to people. Information, that is, here is the most concentrated place for Chinese.
After a while, Wu Hongyi's car stopped in a parking lot, and Xia Yu and others also stopped.
Wu Hongyi smiled and walked up to Xia Yu. After Xia Yu casually looked around, he said, "This is Juelu Street, Westminster, London."
Xia Yu nodded slightly, and said with some emotion, "It's still more comfortable like this."
"Haha, of course, you also know that we Chinese are old-fashioned. Even though we have moved here for so many years, there are some things that go deep in our bones that we can't forget."
Wu Hongyi nodded in agreement and explained with a smile.
"Indeed!"
Xia Yu nodded slightly and agreed.
"Let's go, let's go shopping and talk as we go!"
After Wu Hongyi finished speaking, Xia Yu and others set off with him, and Wu Hongyi also introduced relevant information to Xia Yu.
"Xia Yu, in the past two hundred years, there are at least 500,000 Chinese and overseas Chinese living in the UK. Although they are all over the UK, as long as there is a Chinatown, the connection between us Chinese cannot be broken. Chinatown can say It is the bond between us Chinese to maintain each other."
"This Chinatown is the most concentrated place of Chinese in Britain, and it is also the largest gathering place of Chinese."
"But in the whole of Europe, London's Chinatown may not be the largest and earliest, but it is definitely the'most traditional Chinese' and'most lively' Chinatown in Europe."
Speaking of this, Wu Hongyi unconsciously brought a sense of pride in his tone, which greatly increased Xia Yu's affection for him.
From this, it can be seen that the young Wu Hongyi’s tutor is good. He has a high recognition of his Chinese identity and traditional Chinese culture. He is not the kind of banana man with yellow skin and white heart in later generations. Xia Yu naturally treats him more. Have a good impression.
After all, in the final analysis, Xia Yu is proud of being a Chinese, regardless of his past or present life.
Walking, Wu Hongyi stopped to introduce Xia Yu to the surrounding shops from time to time, and many Chinese shopkeepers greeted Wu Hongyi enthusiastically, and Wu Hongyi also introduced Xia Yu and others.
Walking to the middle of the street, Xia Yu saw a pair of mighty, lovely, and Chinese-colored stone lions standing quietly.
"Xia Yu, there are still stone lions here!"
Seeing the pair of stone lions, Li Qian couldn't help but said in surprise.
"This pair of stone lions was sent by the China Embassy a year ago. I heard that they were airlifted from the Imperial Capital. They were said to be a gift to commemorate the opening of the pedestrian zone in Chinatown."
Wu Hongyi introduced in due course.
Xia Yu raised his brow. It turned out to be transported from the imperial capital, or delivered by the China Embassy in the United Kingdom. At this time, it was placed in the center of the entire Chinatown. The meaning is extraordinary!
Xia Yu couldn't help but approached to observe carefully, and he saw a line of words at the foot of the stone lion's stone pier.
"This pair of stone lions is really good at carving!"
After Xia Yu observed carefully, he exclaimed, and Li Qian leaned forward curiously.
"true!"
"Let's go, keep going there!"
After watching for a while, Xia Yu said, pulling Li Qian's hand and walking forward.
Before they knew it, Xia Yu and the others walked to the street. When they first entered, the towering red archway reappeared in front of them.
And this time, without the roof blocking the line of sight, Xia Yu had a more intuitive feeling for the big red archway.
Looking closely at this large archway full of traces of Chinese culture, Xia Yu was a little emotional.
I saw that this large archway was about six meters high, with red pillars and green tiles with Phnom Penh, and a majestic atmosphere was blowing.
On the two big red pillars of the big archway, there are couplets with black background and gold lacquer, and the letter is written: "Lun Si is facing the Yingdiyuan, Dunyi Keshao Han Tianwei; Huatang Kengu Tao Gongye, Port Kangmin Temple Bell ."
On the top of the archway is a banner: London Chinatown, on its left and right sides, there are also words such as "good weather" and "Guotai Minan", expressing the sincere wishes of the Chinese for the country and the place of residence.
"This big archway is very imposing!"
After a long time, Xia Yu came to a conclusion.
Wu Hongyi smiled and felt very happy about it. After all, their family worked hard to build this big archway. Xia Yu praised this big archway and praised them from the side.
At this moment, a person walked out from the nearby shop and said loudly: "Second Young Master, you are here, why are you standing at the door and not coming in!"
"Uncle Chang, I took a friend to stroll around, but I didn't notify you."
Wu Hongyi said with a smile.
Xia Yu turned to look at the person who was talking to Wu Hongyi, only to see a man in his fifties dressed in Tang suit and full of energy. At this time, he was nodding at Xia Yu and the others with a kind smile.
"Xia Yu, this is Li Hongchang, our old housekeeper."
"Uncle Chang, this is Xia Yu. Next to him is his girlfriend Li Qian, and his three friends Yan Shining, Hou Sheng, and Li Wuming. They just came from Xiangjiang, and now they live with me. By the side, I brought them to Chinatown today."
Wu Hongyi introduced each other.
"Hello Uncle Chang!"
Xia Yu had a very good attitude, calling Li Hongchang like Wu Hongyi, and Li Qian and others also greeted Li Hongchang.
"Hello! I didn't expect that you came from Xiangjiang, and there are new compatriots here, okay, please come inside, don't stand!"
With a smile on his face, Li Hongchang enthusiastically invited Xia Yu and others to the store.
"Xia Yu, go in, this restaurant is under my name and is now managed by Uncle Chang."
Wu Hongyi explained with a smile.
Xia Yu raised his eyebrows and looked up at the shop in front of him as he walked. The decoration was classical and atmospheric, with a fiery red color, and a sign was written "Phoenix Building".
It is a Chinese restaurant~www.readwn.com~Good name, great atmosphere! "
Xia Yu praised that the name is indeed very impressive, and the decoration complements the name. From the outside, the size of the shop can be seen. The length of the restaurant can be determined from the front, and it is at least twelve meters in length, and it is three floors high.
In addition, this restaurant is the first shop at the entrance of Chinatown. The location is very good. Such a large shop in central London is definitely worth a lot!
Considering that Wu Hongyi just said that he belonged to him, then his identity is worth pondering.
"Haha, please inside!"
Hearing Xia Yu's compliment, Wu Hongyi was very happy, and said to Xia Yu and others in a please gesture.
"Go together! Please!"
Xia Yu also politely made a please gesture, and walked in side by side with Wu Hongyi.
