Do you care where he stays? Don’t worry, just sleep in the car. These people don’t need to sleep in a hotel (you are too cruel. Besides, aren’t you afraid that the driver will not get enough rest and get into an accident the next day?)
3. Yunluo scolded them (referring to his employees) and said, "You are bastards." The employee asked, "What kind of egg is a bastard?" Yunluo told him that it is an egg laid by a chicken and a duck.
4. How patriotic he is when he is abroad. The real reason is that when others talk about China, it is equivalent to scolding him, and he loses face. (If he is not Chinese, who knows how he would scold China given his enthusiasm for making up stories about Chinese people)
5. How bad the Chinese are in foreign countries, how they are oppressed and how bad they are.
6. These people are not human beings at all (referring to the Lankans). Don’t treat them as human beings. Those who don’t speak nicely are beasts (after he said this, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo were speechless, and no one responded to him)
The conversation lasted for more than half an hour. The proprietress shouted the boss's name from downstairs, and the boss replied that he would be downstairs soon. A minute later, the proprietress called out again, and the boss apologized to Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo and said he would go downstairs to take a look.
The boss turned around and the waiter came over with the bill.
This is just a trick. It turns out that he is afraid that Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo will negotiate with him. But this kind of person is really not worthy of Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo to negotiate with him. He took the whole bill, including the 10% service charge. The meal cost 9343 rupees.
After taking the photos and filming, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo started the most important shopping trip. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo went to buy gems.
Kandy hemachandras, this shop was established in 1942 and is a family business.
The price is definitely high, but the quality is definitely guaranteed. There are certificates. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo have tested it in Colombo. I also tested it when I returned to China. They won't take heated products as unheated, fake products as real, or inferior products as good ones.
If you want to buy a nice stone but don't know how to buy it, you can consider this place. Even if the price is higher, it is cheaper than in China.
Does it look like a hotel? Yunluo also met some locals who were getting married and were shopping for jewelry.
According to Tyron, the locals still value gold. The exhibition hall on the basement floor is all inlaid with gemstones. Let's take a look at Yunluo's favorite little elephant first. I really wish I had money, so I could get one home.
Yunluo picked a cat's eye. The color on the certificate was green. Yunluo didn't like honey color very much.
Yunluo bargained for a price lower than 40% off. He bargained for 20% off, but it didn't work. Yunluo stood up, but the other party still ignored him. Finally, he raised the price to less than 40% off, and it worked. It was very entangled and took too long.
Yunluomei didn't gain anything here. The sapphires she picked out were all 8,000 or 9,000 US dollars, and she couldn't bargain down the price. She tried to bargain down to 70% off, but it didn't work. After all, there are only so many good things, and no one wants to buy at a low price.
Thinking of Yunluo buying bracelets, every time she pointed at a bracelet, people would say "w". From then on, she got a new nickname, "Guiguitou"
Yunluo will not announce the price, it is expensive or cheap. People say all kinds of things. Yunluo is narrow-minded, you have to say something. The host will be sad if you lose money. After all, this thing is not that cheap, Yunluo will buy the one he likes.
Cat's eye from Yunluo, 1.76 carats. Certificate, and their manager.
Leaving the jewelry store, we headed to the tea plantation. We saw this big tree near a university.
When getting off the car, Yunluo left her phone in the car. She took some photos, but when she wanted to use her phone to take photos, she found that her phone was gone. She was flustered. She looked for her phone everywhere, and finally found it in the car.
So Nalan Shiqi started to scold Yunluo. Yunluo couldn't say anything back, after all, Yunluo had lost a camera before, and lost some small items, so Yunluo couldn't bear to talk about it.
Tyron seemed to understand and said to Nalan Shiqi, "Relax." Then he told a story about a doctor. A doctor from Beijing who hired a car to travel in Lanka lost his camera for the first time, but it was found. The next day, when he was boarding the boat, the camera hit a certain place on the boat and broke.
This way, no one would dwell on Yunluo's mistake. But he forgot to ask Tyron the name of the tree.
When Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo saw the tea garden, they started talking about the Mackwoods Tea Factory.
I chose this tea factory among many others because the price of tea here is the same as that sold in supermarkets and airports.
Tyron told Nalanshiqi and Yunluo that it was not recommended for Nalanshiqi and Yunluo to go to the tea factory because the price would be higher than in the supermarket. This tea factory should be his first time to come. In the end, he bought a few small boxes for his mother. When Nalanshiqi and Yunluo asked about the price, he said that this place was good and the price was the same as in the supermarket.
About pesticides. Two nights before departure, I saw a travelogue about black tea. I remember the poster said that the situation in Sri Lanka is the same as in China, where pesticides are also used. It is impossible to be completely pesticide-free.
In China, you can smell a strong odor of pesticides as soon as you enter the tea garden, but in most places in Sri Lanka it is not bad.
I would like to recommend a method. If you can see pesticides being sprayed around the tea factory, and if you can smell the odor as soon as you enter, then don't buy any.
Mackwood Tea Factory covers a large area. I didn't see any pesticides along the way. When I entered the tea factory, I smelled the fragrance of tea. After buying tea leaves, Yunluo thought of pesticides and asked Tyron if they used pesticides. Tyron looked up the word pesticide in the dictionary, but he didn't understand it. Later, he changed it to insecticide, but he still didn't understand it.
Finally, I changed it to the simplest one: When tea is growing, will there be pests and will it make a "pooping" sound? Finally, Tyron understood.
Tyron said that in the life of tea, pesticides will only be applied once when the tea buds are just very small, and then no more pesticides will be applied.
After hearing this answer, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo felt relieved and chose to believe what Tyron said.
At Mackwook, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo met many European tourists. In order to avoid the crowds, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo chose cake and milk tea.
We arrived at Eliya soon, around 4pm. The holiday made this quiet town lively, and many parents were playing with their children by the lake.
Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo did not stop the car, so the photos were taken in the car. Eliya has a lake, and students who like water may want to stay for two more days. It feels like a small New Zealand, and it is more like Xinjiang. But in Yunluo's opinion, it is not as beautiful as Xinjiang.
The story of this hotel:
Eliya has a famous hotel called Teafactory, which is a converted tea factory. Yunluo has always wanted to stay there, but this hotel is very popular and it may not be possible to book a room three months in advance. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo failed to book a room.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Then Yunluo didn't know what went wrong in his brain and wanted to stay in a hotel with a nice feel in the tea garden.
The beautiful lady who was going to Lanka during the Spring Festival gave Yunluo their itinerary. Yunluo fell in love with this hotel at first sight. The photo of it on Agoda showed a castle. Yunluo wanted to stay in the castle. She had to stay there.
The beauty booked this hotel for two days to see the morning fog every day, but she didn't go there to see the morning fog. She went there to see the castle. But there is no castle here, absolutely no castle!
On the day at Shizi Rock, they realized that this place was 2 hours away from Eliya and no longer belonged to Eliya. Checking out was impossible. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo rushed to the hotel.
Mistakes continue.
The hotel was halfway up the mountain, and we had to drive down from the mountain. On the way, everyone stared at the castle, but they didn't see anything that looked like a castle until they entered the hotel. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo asked each other where the castle was. Even after entering the hotel, Yunluo was wondering if they had come to the wrong place, because there was nothing like a castle.
Although there is no castle, the room is very satisfactory! Very comfortable and luxurious, with a small balcony, and the mountain view outside is also pretty good. It's just a pity that it gets dark very quickly.
It was already six o'clock in the evening when we arrived at the hotel. I have to thank Tyron again for planning the route in advance. We arrived smoothly without taking the wrong road.
Look at the hotel without the shadow of the castle.
Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo's dinner "chicken in the basket"
Dinner was ordered when we checked in. Even though we ordered long in advance, we still had to wait another half an hour for the food to be served at the agreed time.
Yunluo had vegetables and cheese, which wasn't as good as the first-class food on the plane, but it wasn't bad. My friend had fish, which was also good.
The chicken in the basket finally came up. Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo laughed and finally understood what the chicken in the basket meant.
A basket with some fried chicken nuggets in it. The taste was far worse than that of KFC.
Nalan Shiqi and her friend had one piece of fried chicken and one portion of fried fish fingers. In the end, one of them had a portion of McFlurry and the other had a portion of McFlurry. Of course, the taste really cannot be compared with KFC.
Yunluo's watermelon juice actually had sugar in it. Yunluo had to add two full cups of water before he could drink it. The dinner cost 9343 rupees. This morning, Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo had two choices. One was to drink tea leisurely in the restaurant like the previous beauties and watch the mist rise below. The other was to get up early and rush to the legendary "end of the world" where it was so beautiful that it was lost.
The beauty said that the most memorable thing in Lanka was to see the mist at the foot of the mountain. The most beautiful mist in Yunluo's heart has been left in the Ngorongoro Crater and the Fairy Bay in Africa.
Even if it wasn't as beautiful as it once was, Yunluo might still choose to go to the end of the world. Unexpectedly, it was by hiking. The strategy said that the way to the end of the world was already extremely beautiful, and you could choose not to hike. So Nalan Shiqi and Yunluo also decided to see the scenery instead of hiking, because Yunluo really lacked physical strength.
But in the end, Yunluo still completed the whole journey with his "good friend". Yunluo can only say that the scenery along the way was not bad, but it was not beautiful enough to stop Yunluo. As for the definition and understanding of beauty, don't listen to other people's judgment, you will know it after you have walked it yourself. (To be continued...)
