"Beautiful lady, could you please have a cup of coffee? When I was in the United States, my favorite drink was espresso because it had a rich and sweet taste that was unforgettable!
Witt! Two espressos, please. I'd like to invite this lady to try some. Let's experience the flavors of a foreign land. It would be even better with two scones, the most delicious dessert in English afternoon tea.
Come on, I can't wait to share my favorite with you. One bite is like returning to the days of living in the United States!
Jiang Cha was sitting in a coffee shop next to the hotel to kill time, and wanted to hear if there was any useful news here.
Before I finished my cup of coffee, a man with greasy hair and powdered face came.
He was wearing a striped three-piece suit and his hair was smeared with osmanthus hair oil, the smell of which was so strong in the summer that it was almost intoxicating.
I don’t know if it’s because he applied too much or because the hot weather made his hair oily, but his hair was so greasy that it was stuck in clumps.
He sat opposite her by himself, and was quite talkative even though no one paid any attention to him.
Not only did he tell her a bunch of nonsense, he also called the waiter over and ordered two cups of espresso.
I only listened to what he said about studying abroad and going to the United States.
But what he ordered was the ginger tea that really opened my eyes. Wow, concentrated and sweet?
"Hello sir, please enjoy your espresso and horse manure!"
The waiter came over with a tray, holding back a smile, and placed a cup of coffee, not much bigger than a shot glass, in front of the two of them.
Two scones were also served, and they smelled like bacon.
Jiang Cha pushed the snacks and coffee to the other side and looked at the man opposite with an expressionless face.
"Sorry, I never eat food from people I don't know when I'm out!"
After saying that, he stood up and left with his bag. He walked to the bar, took out his wallet from his bag and gave him five dollars, then pushed the door and left!
As a cafe next to the most luxurious hotel in the entire Wu City, the consumption level here is definitely not cheap.
To be honest, if she had spent her own money, she would have been heartbroken.
She has made a lot of money over the years and is known to be extravagant and picky to the outside world, but she is actually a bit stingy at heart.
From the outside, her extravagance was seen as something she did not like, which led many people to stab her in the back, as they were eyeing the money in her pocket.
But they never thought about how she started her ginger tea business from scratch?
Are those real new rich and old money people so easy to deal with?
The new rich buy whatever is expensive and whatever is limited edition, no matter whether the item is worth the price or not, they will buy it anyway, because they think that this is the only way to be cool!
It’s different for the old rich. They will get up early and go dozens of kilometers away to have breakfast on the street, and tell her that it is run by the retired old servant of the family.
I come here from time to time to reminisce because I miss the old man’s craftsmanship. After all, the elders in my family liked this taste the most.
Or occasionally I would find a box of old things in the warehouse at home, and after cleaning it out I would find out that it was a discontinued product from a luxury brand, and the price outside had been sky-high.
This group of people never wear clothes with obvious brands. Apart from ready-made clothes from certain brands, which are used as casual daily wear, most of them have clothes tailored for them by specialized tailors and shoemakers.
Whether Jiang Cha likes to eat noodles with garlic after returning home, or thinks it’s a waste of money to buy a useless abstract artwork, you can understand what the author’s thoughts are from it.
They all want to get into the so-called upper class, only in this way can they better grasp first-hand information.
It was also at that time that Jiang Cha developed the habit of remaining calm no matter how much money he spent.
Even if you can't sleep at night because of the pain in your heart, you can still tell others the next day with a straight face that the quality of the gems you bought yesterday were average and the size was relatively small!
I was used to showing off in my previous life, so even if I only have two dollars left in my pocket in this life, I will still act like a big shot.
Fortunately, I have always been well-off, thanks to the gifts from Xiao Zi and the friendly sponsorship from the traitors and lackeys.
Not to mention anything else in the space, there are more than a dozen boxes filled with oceans. There are so many that it is impossible to count exactly how many there are.
I just think that five dollars for a cup of coffee that I don’t think is very good is a bit too expensive. How much food can I buy back home with that money?
I thought it was too expensive, so I didn't bring any money with me. I walked out of the cafe and headed towards the train station. When I passed by the window where I had just been sitting, I saw the man yelling at the waiter.
Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, one could clearly see the man spraying coffee all over the table, still holding a half-eaten scone in his hand.
He started yelling angrily without finishing the food in his mouth, and the snack crumbs were scattered everywhere.
Fortunately, she left early, otherwise she would be the one in trouble.
Seeing others in trouble, I suddenly felt that the price of the coffee was not bad, as it included the cost of watching the fun!
We took a rickshaw to the train station. The atmosphere was obviously tense along the way. The Japanese military trucks passed by one after another, and motorcycles drove so fast that they almost hit the rickshaw.
The car owner was frightened. He couldn't afford to compensate for the passenger's fall, and he couldn't afford to offend the Japanese soldiers over there.
"Miss, do you think we should still go there? Things have been turbulent these past few days. If you don't have something important to do, don't go!"
Jiang Cha originally wanted to go over and see what was going on, but who knew that so many devils would come?
“Well, let’s go back. Please take me back to Alice Hotel! I originally planned to come over to take a look, and thought that if I could leave, I would quickly buy a ticket for the nearest one.
"Anywhere is fine, it's just too hot here! No wonder it's called a furnace, anywhere is better than spending the summer here!"
