Chapter 114 Peace Hotel



Song Jin did not go back to the guesthouse directly, but went to the post office first.

I found a place near the post office and entered the space, then took Number One out of the space.

Number One already knew what he was going to do, and he walked into the post office calmly.

"Hello comrade, I want to transfer money."

…………

Ten minutes had passed since Number One came out of the post office. After all, he wrote a little slowly.

Song Jin waited for him at the agreed place, made sure that he had completed the tasks assigned to him, and then took him back to the space.

Afterwards, she went to the train station and bought a train ticket back to Heilongjiang Province. She originally wanted to teach a lesson to those people who Cai Quancai said wanted to stop their car, but there was no specific place name, and he was not hurt, so she let them go.

These people didn't know that they had escaped from the gates of hell and continued to rob people until one day they encountered another evil spirit and the whole village was destroyed.

Let’s not talk about this for now. Song Jin has already checked out of the hotel and boarded the train.

This time it was not a direct train to Heilongjiang Province. Ning City where she was located was not far from Shanghai, so she planned to go to Shanghai.

It was only November now, and she planned to stay until December to help the group survive the disaster before leaving. Although she was not going to show up herself, she still had to see that they were safe with her own eyes.

Now she had nowhere to go, and it was not a good idea to stay in the space all the time, so she decided to take advantage of the letter of introduction to wander around.

The first stop was Shanghai. In her previous life, her favorite thing was the old villas in Shanghai. Although house buying and selling is not allowed now, what if?

Two days later, Song Jin arrived in Shanghai. Holding the letter of introduction, she headed straight for the destination she had been thinking about all the way.

The tallest building in the Far East, Shanghai International Hotel.

The Shanghai International Hotel is one of the oldest hotels in Shanghai and was known as the "tallest building in the Far East" in the 1930s.

The International Hotel is located on the bustling Nanjing West Road, opposite the picturesque People's Park.

Transportation is convenient and shopping is also convenient.

Most importantly, it is twenty-four stories high.

In this era, it is indeed the tallest building in the Far East.

Song Jin had never stayed in a hotel in her previous life, so this time she wanted to give it a try. The hotel had been in existence for thirty years, but it still looked relatively new.

After entering, the front hall is very large with a round plate in the middle. It is said that there are two floors of vaults underneath.

When she took out the letter of introduction, she was told that the place currently only accepts international friends, government officials and diplomatic teams.

She was politely shown away by the receptionist.

Ah this, Song Jin was once again shut out of power.

Having money alone is not enough.

She didn't believe in evil and insisted on staying in a good hotel this time.

There was a tricycle at the door, and it cost her fifty cents to take her to the Peace Hotel, where she was successfully checked in this time.

The price is ridiculously high, it costs sixty yuan to stay for one night.

In an era when a night stay in a guesthouse in Heilongjiang Province costs five yuan and a night stay in a guesthouse in Ning City costs only eight yuan, Song Jin was a little surprised that they suddenly asked for sixty yuan. It was indeed worthy of being the No. 1 Hotel.

She also had high expectations for this place. It was said that this was the earliest hotel and was ten stories high.

In her previous life, she watched TV and heard a rumor that Xu Wenqiang was beaten to death at this door, but she didn't know whether it was true or not.

I heard that both the black and white worlds are very powerful here. There is a legend that no matter who you offend in the black and white world, as long as you hide in this place, you will be safe.

Song Jin originally just wanted to try to see if he could move in, but he didn't expect that he could actually do it.

Compared to international hotels, this place looks very modern. The rooms are fully equipped and have independent bathroom facilities.

It seems that the money was well spent. After taking a nice hot bath in the bathtub, Song Jin changed his clothes and went downstairs to the restaurant.

The Peace Hotel is a century-old five-star hotel. Song Jin asked the staff and was told that the Dragon and Phoenix Hall Chinese restaurant in the north building is a great place to dine and enjoy the view.

As a renowned upscale Chinese restaurant in Shanghai, serving classic Shanghainese cuisine, the restaurant is located on the 8th floor of the hotel, offering a breathtaking view of the Huangpu River.

After sitting down, Song Jin just wanted to say that the food here is really expensive.

After reading the menu, she was secretly shocked. Why is seafood more expensive now than in later times?

Garlic oil grouper, 110 yuan per 500 grams

Steamed grouper, 110 yuan per 500 grams...

The price of shrimp is 60 yuan per 500 grams

But it’s not that she can’t afford it, so she looked at the menu.

The hotel's Chinese menu mainly includes: stir-fried shrimp, crystal river shrimp, crispy duck, crispy duck, pine nut mandarin fish, crab roe tofu pot, local eel shreds, Shanghai fried shrimp, Shanghai smoked pomfret, Shanghai special jellyfish head, etc.

She really wanted to try it, but unfortunately she couldn't finish it, so she could only do it slowly.

In the end, we only ordered Crystal River Shrimp, Pine Nut Mandarin Fish, Shanghai Fried Shrimp, and Special Jellyfish Head.

Four dishes cost thirty-eight yuan, half the cost of a night's accommodation, but she didn't feel too bad about it, after all, she had money.

She almost couldn't finish all the food she ordered, but she didn't want to waste it. Fortunately, the portion was not too big.

After dinner, I went downstairs for a walk. Compared with Heilongjiang Province, this place seems like two different worlds.

In Heilongjiang Province, there are almost no people on the streets at night, but here at this time the lights are bright and people are still coming and going on the streets, as if they are not in the same era at all.

Just as Song Jin was enjoying the delicious food and beautiful scenery of Shanghai, thousands of miles away in the Taolin Brigade of Heilongjiang Province, a postman in green military uniform stood under a tree just after entering the brigade with a piece of paper in his hand and shouted: "Is Chen Liang there? I have your remittance slip."

Aunt Chen happened to be nearby. When she heard about her son's remittance slip, she hurried over despite being extremely confused: "I'm Chen Liang's mother, comrade, who sent him the money?"

The postman looked at the person, confirmed her identity again, and took out a form for her to sign.

Aunt Chen, who was illiterate, asked someone to call the team leader. After a while, the villagers who heard the noise gathered around and asked who sent the money, how much money, etc.

However, the postman only spoke after the captain arrived.

"The sender's name is Li Guaizi. He sent it from Ning City. There's no postscript. The total amount is 500 yuan. I waited a few days and didn't see you go to pick it up, so I came here to tell you. Okay, you guys should find time to go to the post office to pick it up. I'm leaving first."

After the postman finished speaking, he rode away on his bicycle, completely unaware of how much shock his words had brought to everyone present.

"Wow, five hundred yuan! Captain, who is this Li Guaizi? Why did he send so much money to Sanwazi?"

"Isn't Chen Liang away? Why is it sent here?"

The team leader didn't want to say more here. He himself was still confused. He said to everyone in a bad mood: "I'll ask Chen Liang later. What are you all doing here? Have you finished your work in the fields? Don't you want your work points anymore?"

After everyone dispersed, the team leader and his wife ran home.

I have to ask my son what's going on...
