my old life

Chapter 2444
In many cases, it takes time to adapt to the differences of civilizations. To respect the customs is to respect oneself.

"Give me another drink, is another drink OK?" I made gestures, trying to delay a little time.

The foreigner shook his head with a smile on his face. He didn't understand what it meant, so I thought about it and made a movement.

I gestured to the coffee cup, gestured to the side again, and held out two fingers.

"Two cups, double! OK?" I tried my best to make him understand, some words are basically universal in the world.

"OK." The foreigner pushed the dining car away, seeing that he still had a smile on his face, and he didn't look unhappy.

As soon as the foreigner left, I was relieved. In fact, while enjoying high-end services, it is only natural to give some tips.

After all, a cup of coffee needs to be pushed by a dining car. While enjoying high-end service, it is also reasonable to give a tip.

Soon Xiaona came back with an envelope, her face changed a little, and the way she looked at me also changed.

"Is the exchange ready?" I asked curiously, wondering if she had seen the balance in the bank card.

"Okay, this is five thousand pounds." She put the bulging envelope on the table, and her attitude changed a little.

"Five thousand? Why don't you exchange some more?"

"I didn't get permission, so I just exchanged less." She murmured in a low voice, she probably didn't expect that I would have so much money.

"Please go back and exchange another [-], and I'll treat you to coffee when I come back." I said with a smile, and at the same time give due rewards while bothering others.

"Ok."

"By the way, why is there no cat's eye on the door? Can people outside not see it?"

"There is a visual camera here, just press this to connect to the infrared monitoring outside the door."

"Not bad, it's so complicated."

"People in Yingguo think it's ungentlemanly to look at people through the eyes of cats, so many hotels don't have cat's eyes."

Xiaona explained it, and I nodded to show that I understood. It really showed a sense of superiority!

"Okay, I see. How much is a good tip here?"

"Five pounds or ten pounds is fine, or a few hundred pounds, depending on one's mood."

"How much pound does Alex give you for one day of translation?" I asked curiously. I want to give more tips while getting better service.

"This is personal privacy. It's impolite to ask about income here." Xiaona stuck out her tongue at me, and I have to say that she has a high EQ.

"I don't mean anything else, I just want to give you a raise." I said something nonchalant, and quietly hooked her.

"Two hundred pounds." She said the salary without hesitation. I like her straightforwardness very much.

"OK, now I'll give you two thousand pounds, go and exchange them for cash." I pointed to the envelope on the table and motioned for her to take it by herself.

"Really?" She looked at me in surprise, as if she couldn't believe that she could get so many tips.

"Of course, but you have to remember that the people who treat you well are your compatriots!"

As soon as she said this, her face flushed slightly, and she put down the two thousand pounds again. It seems that she is much smarter than I imagined.

I originally planned to teach her a lesson with a tip of 2000 yuan. It seems that she still knows that some things are more important than money, and that is a person's values!

"Go quickly." I smiled and waved my hand. I have always liked this kind of smart girl.

In fact, I think she is like a little sister. When we meet in a foreign country, we should take care of each other. This is a reasonable thing.

At this moment, the foreigner came back with the dining car, this time it was still a cup of coffee, but there was an extra plate of pastries.

"Thank you!" I took out two hundred pounds as a tip, and the foreigner took it with a smile. I didn't expect the foreigner to play tricks!

Just now I didn’t give a tip for the first time, but the foreigner gave me an extra plate of pastries for the second time, which seems to be the behavior after giving a tip, but it is actually in line with sales psychology.

The first rule of sales is not to come up with the best thing at the beginning, because once it is rejected, there is no room for it.

To put it another way, if you fail to meet your expectations the first time, you will often give a little more the second time, using better conditions to achieve your expected goals.

So when talking about something, no matter what it is, you will never get the price you like the most when you talk about it for the first time... This is a theorem!
I drink coffee while smoking, I personally feel that this is a kind of enjoyment, with a long aftertaste...

Soon Xiaona returned to the room, this time the envelope was replaced with a paper bag, and I gave her [-] pounds as a tip directly, and the way she looked at me became different.

I didn't say anything but just invited her to drink coffee, and she told me some local customs, as well as the historical civilization of various periods...

With a guide and translator, you can learn a lot of information about a strange country in a short period of time, and you can get better service while giving tips.

I like to give to others to get a better experience, whether it is sauna massage or translation guide, money is the fastest way to get closer to each other, there is no one!

Time passed by, and after getting the tip, Xiaona acted as my life assistant and helped me with all my needs.

Lunch is a very simple thing, as if they don't care about lunch, or they don't eat much at this time.

"Is there so little lunch here?" I asked curiously, feeling that there was a big gap between the luxurious meal I imagined.

"Here, the afternoon tea will be richer. This is their habit, because the work starts later in the morning... If necessary, it can be customized."

"Don't bother, being able to sleep until you wake up naturally is indeed very similar to the way of life of evil capitalism."

I made a joke, Mike didn't ask me to have lunch, I guess he was busy with something.

"It's only for a small number of people, and most of it is on grants."

"Where is Mike? Has he gone out?" I asked curiously, supposedly he would take me with him.

"He's in the swimming pool on the roof. He said you don't like swimming, so he didn't call you." Xiaona explained, which made me laugh.

"Yes, I really don't like it."

I thought to myself that the reminder given by the mute is really good, others think I hate this, this is the most hidden!
"Come and call me if Mike goes out, you go to rest." I waved her to leave because I had to make a phone call.

"Okay, this is my phone number, call me anytime you need it." Xiaona took out a business card and put it on the table, and pointed to the phone in the room.

"OK."

I lay on the bed and stretched comfortably, took out the phone and dialed Fox's number, wondering if she has returned to Xiaomengla now.

"Hello?" Fox's voice came from the other end of the phone, still sounding so friendly!

"It's me, is the proprietress in place?" I joked with a smile, wondering if she had returned to Xiaomengla.

"Just arrived, I'm going to look for you!" The voice of the fox gnashing his teeth made me murmur, who provoked her?
"What's wrong?"

"You explain to me what a life assistant is? Huh?"

"Ah?" I was instantly dumbfounded when I heard this, how did she know such a thing happened?
"That little vixen ran away as soon as I came back, so fast!" I was completely relieved by what the fox said, so I didn't run into him!

"Misunderstanding, it must be a misunderstanding..."

"Little Shackle's life assistant is pretty good. I heard that you have to have a good figure and a good appearance. You really enjoy it!"

The fox's tone became obviously wrong, and the idiot could hear the meaning, obviously he was jealous.

"Where is it... just an assistant, nothing is good."

"I didn't say it was bad! There is someone who can help take care of you. I am too happy! How can I be angry?"

The fox said it very generously, but I know very well that a woman's ability to tell lies, and I must not guess from the literal meaning!

As the saying goes, a woman has a needle in her heart, never try to guess a woman's thoughts, because you will never be able to figure it out!
"This is just to help with some daily chores, not as much as you think..."
