Chapter 885 This is Pyongyang

The road to Pyongyang at this airport is very deserted, and there are few vehicles. Zhang Yang thought it was because he was far away from the center of Pyongyang, but when they entered the city of Pyongyang, the situation was still the same. Li Bingmin drove and introduced some landmark buildings and attractions to them, such as Datong River and what When Li Bingmin introduced the National Library to the guests, he showed a kind of pride from the bottom of his heart. This kind of national pride is very common among the people in North Koreans, and only they know what they are proud of.

Pyongyang's first impression on Zhang Yang was that it was dark. The whole city was dark. Zhang Yang thought it was a power outage. After asking, he knew that the country's energy was very tight. Everything was planned and it was still in the stage of planned economy.

When I passed the Pyongyang Railway Station, I finally saw some lights. Zhao Tiantian muttered in the back, "It's so dark, just like a small mountain village." When he said this, Li Bingmin's expression was a little embarrassed.

Wu Dezhi quietly pulled Li Bingmin and reminded him not to talk nonsense. In this land, the national self-esteem is very strong, and often your inadvertent words are likely to touch their nerves.

Li Bingmin took them to the Goryeo Hotel. This hotel is a five-star hotel. Entering the lobby of the hotel, I finally found some traces of modern society in it. The decoration of the lobby is good, with a light dome and gray and white marble polished floor. You can find a lot of [middle] national elements in the lobby, the To their surprise, there are also escalators here.

Originally, Zhang Yang thought that Li Bingmin would help them arrange the check-in procedures, but Li Bingmin only took them to the service desk and didn't follow up. It means that they should pay the bill by themselves. Wu Dezhi quietly told Zhang Yang that North Koreans are very pette. It's better to kill them if you ask them to pay In this case, there is no need for Zhang Yang to force others. It is rare for Li Bingmin to give up gas to pick them here from the airport. He is not rich in the first place, so he can't force them to be fat? Zhang Daguan never did what was difficult for him. He asked Wu Dezhi to check in.

Although North Korea is poor, the consumption level is not low at all. The occupancy deposit is 15,000 yuan, and Wu Dezhi wants a three-person suite, 2,000 yuan per night. This is a currency ratio. The exchange rate of their country's currency bound to RMB is 15:1, but it will reach an amazing 400:1 on the black market. Ordinary The monthly salary is only about 2,000 yuan. If it is converted on the black market, it is five or six yuan, so Zhang Guanren compared his salary with North Koreans and came to a conclusion: "Anyone person in our country is a millionaire."

The three of them came to the room and put their luggage away. They only planned to rest here for one night and plan... the action in North Korea by the way.

Although Li Bingmin did not pay to arrange their accommodation, as a landlord, he still offered to invite them to dinner. Considering the economic situation of this person, Zhang Yang wanted to refuse, but Li Bingmin was very persistent in inviting guests. Seeing that other people's hospitality was difficult, Zhang Yang could only reluctantly agree.

After a short rest, they came to the restaurant arranged by Li Bingmin. Zhang Yang thought that Li Bingmin would arrange a meal at the Gaoli Hotel, but he didn't expect that the place he arranged was the nearby Begonia Huā Restaurant, where the consumption here was relatively cheaper than that of the Gaoli Hotel. In fact, the consumption here is also very high in Pyongyang. Li Bingmin took them to a private room on the third floor. The private room is rectangular, and the dining table placed in it is also long-shaped. It is more like a small conference room for domestic meetings. The dishes have been arranged, and there are seven or eight visual inspections. If it is simply It's sloppy, but Li Bingmin came with three companions, which is one dish per person on average.

The dishes are mainly seafood, which is of some quality. Knowing that Zhang Yang was Zhou Xingguo's younger brother, Li Bingmin was particularly polite to him and whispered in his ear, "In order to welcome you, I specially invited a few beautiful women to sing!"

At the beginning, Zhang Daguan thought he had heard it wrong. Is this North Korea? With their backwardness and closure, they even have a three-time escort?

But as the door opened and three beautiful North Korean girls came in, Zhang Daguan believed that he had not heard it wrong just now.

From the dress, you can see that two of them are the waiters of the restaurant. What really attracts publicity is the one in the middle. He is about twenties old. His clothes are fashionable, his short hair is very refreshing, and the temperament of raising hands and feet is quite elegant. It turns out that she is indeed different from those two girls. This Li Jinshun, the deputy manager, once studied in [Zhongzhong] for three years and can speak fluent Mandarin.

Li Bingmin quietly told Zhang Yang that all families who can work here have a certain background, most of whom are children of cadres.

Li Jinshun was arranged to sit next to Zhang Yang. Zhang Guanren understood that when he came here, he simply ate and drank with him. He should master the scale, otherwise he would definitely arouse people's disgust. Besides, at present, Zhang Guanren does not have that kind of mood.

On the way to the restaurant, Wu Dezhi specifically told them that the most common people in North Korea are spies, especially in places where foreign guests often appear, such as Korea Grand Hotel and Haitang Huā Restaurant. There are more spies. They take advantage of various opportunities to collect all kinds of information, and you must be careful when talking here.

So Zhang Yang has a long heart and talks as little as possible except for drinking.

Li Bingmin has prepared a lot of drinks. The beer is the same Datong River, and the liquor is vodka from Russia.

North Koreans are not very ambiguous when drinking. They pick up the wine glass and pour it up. The three attendants invited by Li Bingmin are absolutely conscientious. They drink with Zhang Yang with the wine glass. These people know some Chinese and know the rules of drinking. As soon as the wine glass is raised, they will come immediately. Sentence: "Do it!" The pronunciation of this word is easy, but it is not a simple thing to pour a glass of vodka into their stomachs. The North Korean people probably want to use their boldness and hospitality to impress Zhang Yang's friends from powerful neighbors. This is also what Li Bing's civil statement first said. We must let guests drink well. At this point, the two countries The people have a common understanding that if they don't drink, they can't drink well, so they take turns toasting and going to battle.

Wu Dezhi insisted on not drinking, because he lost a right arm, and his face was scarred. When others saw him, they always felt that it was not easy to get close to him, so few people took the initiative to drink with him.

Zhao Tiancai only drinks beer.

So the other party's firepower was concentrated on Zhang Daguan. Their first round of bombing obviously did not have the expected effect. Seeing Zhang Daguan holding vodka in his hand and talking and laughing, several North Koreans could see that this dared to be massive.

How could Zhang's official pay attention to them? Seeing several people showing timidity, his counterattack began.

In fact, Li Bingmin is not only afraid of Zhang Yang's counterattack, but also feels sorry for these wine money. A bottle of vodka is not cheap, and the price is 8,5 yuan. In a short time, five bottles of wine will bottom out. Looking at Zhang Yang's state, it's easy to have another five bottles. Li .

Zhang Yang knew that the man was distressed by Li Bingmin's increasing frequency of raising his glass more and lower. The three bartenders were unable to drink at this time. They drank red and talked too much. Usually, Korean is mixed with Chinese.

Li Jinshun came to Zhang Yang with a small wine glass and took the initiative to have a drink with him. He smiled sweetly and said, "Where is Mr. Zhang from?"

Zhang Yang said, "Pinghai!"

Li Jinshun's eyes lit up and said, "Pinghai, I've been there!"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I haven't seen you!" This is more or less provocative.

Li Jinshun's pretty face turned a little red: "It's hard to meet when Pinghai is so big, but I have a good impression of Pinghai. The economic development in my nose is very good, and the country is also at the forefront, right?"

Zhang Yang nodded and said, "Welcome Miss Li to take time to Pinghai in the future. I will definitely do my best to be a landlord."

Li Jinshun nodded. Li Bingmin suggested that everyone should not only focus on drinking, but also do some entertainment. In fact, he was distressed about the money for drinking. Zhang Yang's evaluation of him was petuniasant. Including the three winers, a total of ten of them only ordered eight dishes. Now the dishes are almost eaten. If it is I must continue to order, but Li Bingmin has no intention of ordering, and I am reluctant to continue to take vodka. Datongjiang beer costs a lot. How much beer can you drink? If you drink too much, your stomach is still bloated. Besides, Datongjiang is cheap.

That is to say, Zhang Yang is in a bad mood now. If he is not worried about the nightingiobler, he has to do it hard.

At Li Bingmin's suggestion, Li Jinshun stood up and picked up the microphone and gave the guests a song "May You Peace". Her singing can only be regarded as ordinary, but the words are clear and the pronunciation is also standard.

Li Bingmin said with the intention of drinking, "Tomorrow morning I will arrange for you to visit the statue of the leader and present huā to the leader!" When he said this, he had a deep sense of honor on his face. Zhang Guanren knew long before he came to North Korea that going to the leader [Guangzhou] field and offering Xianhu to their leaders was a program that almost all people who came to North Korea must go. Zhang Guanren secretly said, "What's your leader doing? Why should I give huā to him?"

However, when he saw that Wu Dezhi quietly winned at him, Zhang Yang did not say anything against him. After all, this is their territory. Follow the customs when he enters the countryside. Li Bingmin is also kind. What they like, they think that the guests also like it, and think that his arrangement is very thoughtful for the guests.

The overall feeling of this meal was quite strange. After saying goodbye to these North Koreans, Zhang Yang and others left the Begonia huā restaurant. Zhao Tian couldn't help saying, "The people here are too stingy. Such a large table is surrounded by eight dishes. After eating, I don't know if Two."
