Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Chapter 280 The tallest building in the country in [-]!

During the flight, Cao Zhiqiang, who was sitting in the first-class cabin, was always in fear, looking back from time to time, fearing that there might be a flight accident or a hijacking accident.

Fortunately, the plane flew very smoothly along the way, without any major turbulence, and nothing strange happened at all.

Even so, Cao Zhiqiang waited for the plane to land before putting his mind back to the original place.

After the group got out of the plane, they immediately took two taxis and went straight to Jinling Hotel.

Jinling Hotel may not be very eye-catching in future generations, but it is remarkable at this moment.

Because this is a foreign-related tourist hotel, and it is also the tallest building in the country.

In this era, as long as there is a title of No. [-] in the country, it will definitely be famous all over the world.

In fact, in his previous life, Cao Zhiqiang once lived in the Jinling Hotel, and he felt that his level was average, but that was in the 21st century.

In China in [-], Jinling Hotel was definitely the top hotel.

Among other things, in terms of hardware facilities, only the White Swan Hotel in Guangzhou can compare with this in China. No hotel in the capital can compare with this Jinling Hotel in terms of hardware facilities. Comparable.

Of course, at this time Jinling Hotel has not yet officially opened, it is only in the stage of trial operation.

The trial operation is also a business, but it is not open to ordinary people, only important personnel are received, and some facilities are not open.

Now if you want to stay at the Jinling Hotel, you must be a businessman from Hong Kong, Macau or Taiwan, or a foreign businessman, or a mainlander, you must have a formal unit and can open a formal letter of introduction.

Although Cao Zhiqiang is not a businessman from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, nor is he a foreign businessman, he is the leader of a state-owned enterprise in the capital city. If nothing else, just a blank letter of introduction. He carries a stack of them with him, and he can open as many as he wants.

But just having a letter of introduction is not enough. In other words, the stumbling block that prevents ordinary people from staying in Jinling Hotel at this time is not the so-called letter of introduction, but the price.

Jinling Hotel is not only the tallest building in the country at this time, but also the most expensive hotel in the country at this time, bar none.

A standard double room here costs 650 yuan a day, and a luxury suite costs [-] yuan a day!
You know, in an era when the average monthly income is 50 yuan, [-] yuan is enough for ordinary people to earn more than a year.

With more than a year's salary, you can only live here for one day. How can ordinary people be willing to do so.

But Cao Zhiqiang was willing.

Although Cao Zhiqiang is not particularly rich now, he still doesn't care much about staying in this kind of hotel.

Because in Cao Zhiqiang's view, money is spent, and the key is to live comfortably when you are away from home, otherwise how can you quickly recover your physical strength and energy.

Originally, Chen Jiabang and his wife didn't know the price of this hotel. They only knew that this hotel looked very luxurious, and they had heard the legend about the tallest building here.

However, when they really knew the accommodation fee here, they were still dumbfounded.

"No, it's too expensive!" Mrs. Chen was the first to say, "Zhiqiang, it's too expensive here, it costs six hundred a night, how can it be so expensive, isn't it a scam?"

Hearing this, Cao Zhiqiang didn't say anything, and the female service at the service desk was not happy: "Comrade, we always clearly mark the price here, and we never cheat people.

As for the price issue, we are a foreign-related hotel, which mainly accepts foreign guests and has always been in line with international standards, so if you think it is not suitable, you can choose to stay in another hotel, but please don't slander us. "

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen became unhappy: "How do you talk? What do you mean by mainly receiving foreign guests? Chinese people are not human?"

Seeing that Mrs. Chen was going to argue with the waiter, Chen Jiabang quickly stopped his wife: "Stop talking, it will make people laugh."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly at this time, and said to the waiter: "Okay, don't talk nonsense, open me three rooms, two deluxe double rooms, one... wait, is there a presidential suite? If so, open me one. "

"Sorry, comrade." The waitress pulled her face and said, "We are in trial operation, and the presidential suite is temporarily closed, and we don't accept credit here, so we need to pay a deposit in cash."

"You dogs look down on people!" Mrs. Chen said angrily again.

"Sorry, comrade." The waitress smiled with her chin raised, "This is the rule."

"Okay, sister-in-law, why are you competing with a waiter." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and comforted Mrs. Chen, "They also follow the rules, forget it."

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang turned back to the waitress and said, "Okay, give me two double rooms and one single room, preferably next to each other, okay?"

"Okay." The waitress said, "The unit's introduction letter, and one day's room rate as a deposit, will be returned to you when you leave."

"How much is the deposit?" Cao Zhiqiang took out his wallet and asked.

Seeing the situation, the waitress put away her contemptuous attitude and said a little more seriously:
"The double room is a standard room, 650 yuan a day; the single room is only a luxury suite, [-] yuan a day.

You want two standard rooms and one deluxe suite, the total cost is 2000 yuan. "

Cao Zhiqiang calmly took out two hundred ten-yuan bills and sent them with a letter of introduction: "Is this all right?"

The waitress smiled slightly: "Of course, no problem, I will arrange it for you."

Soon, another waiter came over and took everyone to the room.

"Hmph!" Mrs. Chen glared at the waitress, "A dog's eyes look down on people! He only sees money! I didn't say you, comrade, a person like you, if you put it in the past, you would be a traitor and a running dog, you know Is it?"

The waitress's face was livid, and she wanted to refute but didn't dare to attack.

Because she had read the letter of introduction before, and knew that these people were all cadres of the publishing house from the capital.

Today's people in the country know that the cadres in the capital cannot be messed with, especially the Jingcheng Publishing House.

Coupled with the fact that they can stay in such an expensive hotel, it seems that they have a lot of background.

Anyway, no matter what, she is not something a waiter can offend.

It also made the waitress a bit regretful.

Mainly, Mrs. Chen's Mandarin with a Henan accent, not a pure Beijing movie, made the waitress subconsciously think that the other party was from Henan.

Regional discrimination also existed in this period, and most of the hotel waiters in this period were related households, so this waitress looked down on Mrs. Chen with a Henan accent, which was normal.

It wasn't too late to regret until he realized that the other party was from the capital, and he was also a cadre and the family member of a cadre.

I can only pretend not to hear it, and bear it silently.

Fortunately, this is also one of the things they learn. When faced with embarrassment, they just smile and don't speak, and pretend that they don't understand what they say, then everything is OK.

"Okay, stop talking." Chen Jiabang quickly comforted his wife, "What a shame."

Mrs. Chen said aggrievedly: "I just can't get used to that girl's face, how old is she, she still looks down on people, and thinks it's the old society?"

Chen Jiabang sighed, and stopped persuading Mrs. Chen, but said to Cao Zhiqiang: "I'm kidding you, my wife came from my hometown just like me, so I'm picky about it."

"It's nothing." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "Actually, I like sister-in-law's character, she's straightforward, and she can say whatever she wants.

To be honest, sister-in-law, I am a big man, I am too embarrassed to break up with a girl, otherwise, I want to scold her for her attitude. "

"That's right!" Mrs. Chen was happy when she heard that, "Look, Xiao Cao can still talk, or he is the president of the company."

Chen Jiabang shook his head and smiled wryly, then said nothing.

Soon, everyone came to their respective rooms.

The first one to enter was the standard room of Chen Jiabang and his wife.

As soon as she entered, Mrs. Chen's eyes widened immediately, it was too luxurious without him.

Although this double room is a standard score, it has a lot of space, with an independent bathroom, two Simmons beds, a color TV, a tea table and two sofas.

Not only is it large in size and full of functions, but also luxuriously decorated, with all kinds of furniture and electrical appliances, and even air-conditioning.

In addition to these, the bathroom is separated from wet and dry. Not only is there a flush toilet, but also a bathtub and shower. The floor and walls are covered with tiles. When the light hits it, it looks tall and tall, all of which are in line with Western standards.

Looking at the environment, Mrs. Chen immediately felt that the money was well spent.

That is, I didn't bring a camera, otherwise, Mrs. Chen would definitely take a picture of this place, and then go back to show it off to my neighbors and colleagues.

"Camera, I have it." Cao Zhiqiang, who came in for a visit, laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, I have a camera, Seagull DF-1, and some color film. You can use it if you want."

"Really?" Mrs. Chen said in surprise, "Well, why are you so embarrassed?"

"What's so embarrassing about that?" Cao Zhiqiang said with a chuckle, "Brother Chen and I are tight-lipped, and we will kiss each other in the future. A camera, take it and use it, anyway, it's for use."

"Thank you very much." Mrs. Chen nodded with a smile.

"What are you being polite about?" Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang brought his suitcase over, opened the suitcase, took out the camera wrapped in the leather case, and took out a box of color film by the way.

After putting the camera and film on the coffee table, Cao Zhiqiang said, "Okay, brother Chen, sister-in-law, you should have a good rest first, and have lunch together later, and then we will go to Qiao's house, what do you think?"

"No problem." Chen Jiabang smiled and said with his hands behind his back, "It's all up to you."

"Okay, let's do this first." Cao Zhiqiang nodded, and then said to Cao Lili and Qiao Simi, who were looking left and right, "Don't look, this is not your room, come with me."

After finishing speaking, Cao Zhiqiang nodded to the waiter, and the waiter continued to lead everyone to the next room.

The next room is also a standard double room, which is the same as the room of Chen Jiabang and his wife.

"This is your room." Cao Zhiqiang who came in said to Cao Lili and Qiao Simi, "There are also two beds, and you each have one bed. How about it, isn't it good?"

"Wow, that's great." Qiao Simei smiled and sat down on the sofa, "Wow, the sofa is so soft, brother, is it really only for me and my sister to live here?"

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

"What about you?" Qiao Simi said, "Where do you live?"

"I live in the single room next door." Cao Zhiqiang said with a smile.

"Ah, you won't live with us?" Qiao Simei was unhappy.

"Silly girl." Cao Zhiqiang walked over with a smile, and scratched the bridge of Qiao Simei's nose with his fingers.

"Although we are brothers and sisters, men and women are different after all. If I live with you, if the police find me, I will be confused.

Well, you guys have a good rest here, and I will call you when I come back to eat. "

After finishing speaking, Cao Zhiqiang was about to leave here with the waiter.

But Qiao Simei jumped up suddenly, grabbed Cao Zhiqiang's arm and shook it: "Brother, brother, don't rush away, I will go with you, and see what your room looks like."

"Simei!" Cao Lili frowned slightly, and reprimanded her sister.

"Sister." Qiao Simi looked back at Cao Lili, "Aren't you curious?"

"This..." Cao Lili bit her lower lip, then looked at Cao Zhiqiang.

Cao Zhiqiang sighed, shook his head, and then said with a smile: "Okay, I really convinced you, come along."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Simi happily made a funny face at Cao Lili, and then went to the single room with the waiter and Cao Zhiqiang.

In fact, the single room that Cao Zhiqiang originally wanted was a double room.

According to Cao Zhiqiang's understanding, the so-called double bed room generally refers to a standard room with a double bed.

However, the Jinling Hotel in this period did not have the concept of a standard double room, so the single room here actually refers to the business suite, which is actually second only to the presidential suite.

Generally speaking, a business suite is a luxury suite, that is, it is larger in size than a standard room, with more luxurious decoration, and often only has a large double bed.

Sure enough, when Cao Zhiqiang entered the suite with the waiter, he found that it was really different here.

The simplest difference is that the area here is larger, and a wall is used to divide two rooms, one is the living room and the other is the bedroom.

In the living room, there is a decent big coffee table, surrounded by four chairs, and a full set of purple sand tea sets are placed on the coffee table.

The living room has large floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Jinling City.

Since the Jinling Hotel at this time was the tallest building in Jinling City, looking down from here, it means that the mountains are big and the mountains are small.

"Wow, it's really different here!" Qiao Simei exclaimed immediately, "Even the carpet looks different, tsk tsk, brother, you really enjoy it, aren't you afraid to live in such a big place by yourself?"

"What are you afraid of?" Cao Zhiqiang put the suitcase aside casually, then dismissed the waiter, and then came over and said, "There is a phone here, and a call button. You can call the waiter at any time, so there is nothing to be afraid of."

Qiao Simei smiled and said, "Brother, why don't I stay here with you, your place is much better than mine."

"Come on!" Cao Zhiqiang pushed Qiao Simei's forehead, "Don't hurt me, this is outside, not like at home. Men and women still need to pay attention."

"But I'm just a child!" Qiao Simei puffed up her cheeks and said.

"It's even worse for children." Cao Zhiqiang said, "You're a girl, and I'm not your father. You can't sleep in my room. It will cause problems if it spreads."

"What's the problem?" Qiao Simei still wanted to play tricks, and directly hugged Cao Zhiqiang's arm, dangling it constantly, "No, no, brother, I'm going to sleep with you here, you Such a big bed is not bad for me as a child, okay?"

Cao Zhiqiang sighed, and looked directly at Cao Lili: "Lili, come on!"

Cao Lili covered her mouth and smiled, then pulled Qiao Simei away: "Let's go, don't delay my rest, I will see my elder brother, second brother and younger brother, and my father, aunt and uncle."

After hearing this, Qiao Simei reluctantly let go of Cao Zhiqiang's arm, and was pulled away by Cao Lili.

After Qiao Simei was pulled away, Cao Zhiqiang yawned and said, "Lili, Simei, go and rest first, brother is a bit tired, I'll sleep for a while, just call me when you have lunch."

"Are you going to bed at this time?" Qiao Simei asked in surprise, "It's not far from noon."

Cao Zhiqiang yawned: "I can't help it. I read a novel all night yesterday and wrote a lot of plans. I slept a little late and didn't sleep on the plane... Forget it, let's not talk, I'm really sleepy, you guys Go rest too, don't bother me."

Seeing that Cao Zhiqiang was really sleepy, Cao Lili pulled Qiao Simi and said, "Let's go, brother is really tired, don't bother him."

Only then did Qiao Simei nod her head: "Brother Cao, take a good rest and call you again when you're eating."

"Yes." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

After Cao Lili and Qiao Simei left, Cao Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief, then went directly to the bedroom, took off his shoes, and lay down on the big Simmons bed.

"It's been so tiring every day!" Cao Zhiqiang exhaled, and slowly closed his eyes, "I hope everything goes well and Simei's matter can be resolved as soon as possible, then I will be completely at ease and have nothing to worry about."

While talking, Cao Zhiqiang slowly closed his eyes, then snored lightly, and fell into a deep sleep.
