Chapter 234 Free Party
In 'E-Kosel', Xiao Peng and the other two sat there drinking juice and eating 'Grilled Daddy'.
Even without looking at their skin color, one would be able to tell from their current attire that they are tourists.
Walter and the other two, like Xiao Peng, were dressed in the same Chinese sportswear style: loose-fitting sweatpants, T-shirts, and sneakers or sneakers.
However, this dressing habit that the Chinese find comfortable and cozy is rarely seen in the West. They think that sweatpants are only worn when exercising or at home. Wearing sweatpants when going out instead of exercising is a very strange thing here.
So on the streets of Europe, you can see people wearing sports shorts, but rarely see men and women wearing sports pants. Even if there are people wearing sports pants, most of them are small hooligans or beggars. Many bars here don't even allow people wearing sports pants to enter.
Anyway, when you go to Europe, the most common pants are jeans. At least eighty out of a hundred people wear jeans.
The key reason why jeans are so popular here is that they are cheap. For example, Levis, which is regarded as "high-end jeans" by domestic fashionistas, the regular models here are only a few dozen euros without discounts, and 25 euros during the discount season...
Walter and Khedira usually wear suits and ties, but after spending time on the boat with Xiao Peng, they now like to dress in sportswear. This is what they wore when they came to the "ruins" this time.
Xiao Peng felt that the two of them looked very good dressed like this, and it seemed that they both looked at least ten years younger.
However, due to cultural differences, they had no problem wearing this way at home, but they felt uncomfortable when they went out and insisted on buying a pair of jeans from 'E-Kosel' after dinner.
"They're all stubborn!" Xiao Peng concluded. "Why bother caring so much about what others think?"
"Hello!" The three of them were still eating barbecue when someone suddenly greeted them. Xiao Peng saw that it was a young Marseille man. Although he had a beard, the acne on his face betrayed his age.
Xiao Peng was stunned: "Hello, what can I do for you?"
The young man was holding a stack of flyers. He took one out and handed it to Xiao Peng: "I'm having a party at the Ruins tonight. Do you want to come?"
Xiao Peng smiled and said, "Okay! Let's go over and take a look after we finish our meal!"
The young man smiled and said, "Then welcome!"
After saying that, he continued walking and went to the side to find someone to distribute flyers.
Xiao Peng looked at the flyer and asked in confusion, "Free party? How do they make money? Just for fun?"
Walter shrugged and said, “Who knows what young people think, maybe it’s the sales of alcohol.”
Xiao Peng pointed at the flyer and said, "But it says 'Bring your own drinks'."
Walter scratched his head: "I can't figure it out either! Who knows what young people think nowadays."
Xiao Peng suddenly laughed. "Why don't we just go and take a look? Look at you two. If you were sitting here normally, no young people would hand you flyers, right? The way you're dressed makes people think you're young too. Well, you just look a little anxious."
Khedira asked: "Boss, if you bring your own drinks... what do you want to drink?"
Xiao Peng shook his head and said, "We're here to look for someone, not to have fun. What are you drinking?"
Khedira shook his head and said, "Boss, I think we should make some preparations. I just saw someone selling 'DEUZT' inside. I'll go buy some for you. The wine is on me!"
Xiao Peng was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "Damn Germans! Go buy it."
DEUZT is a German champagne brand. Oh, it shouldn't be called champagne, it should be called sparkling wine, because it's not produced in the Champagne region of France. Only sparkling wines from the Champagne region of France and a few specific regions in the United States can be called champagne. This wine is also sold in France, but it's not very popular because the regular version is quite expensive, 40 euros a bottle.
In fact, champagne is not as expensive as you might think. Except for the limited edition exquisite ones, most ordinary champagnes cost around 25 euros. After all, it is an "occasion wine".
There are really not many people like Xiao Peng who drink champagne as beer.
Khedira snapped his fingers after hearing this and was about to go buy some wine when he suddenly stopped and said, "Boss, I remember there was a bag in your car. I packed the wine in that bag!"
"Ah? There's a bag in my car?" Xiao Peng was stunned. He had no recollection of this, but he still casually tossed the car keys to Khedira: "Take it yourself! Walter, aren't you going to eat?"
"Who said that?" Walter asked curiously, "What on earth are you looking for this woman named Wang Shuang for? If you really have something urgent to find her, you can ask Fabian to contact the police for help. Don't you have friends in the police too?"
Xiao Peng was a little embarrassed after hearing this: "Well... I came here for some personal matters. In fact, I didn't even want to bring you along."
Walter was stunned for a moment, then laughed: “As a man, I understand. Boss, when I was your age, I had more peach blossoms than you.”
Xiao Peng raised his middle finger and said, "A man who doesn't brag will die. When you were my age, you were still in the military, right?"
Walter said, "Boss, you don't understand. Why did I join the army? It was for the money! After Germany abolished the conscription system, they basically couldn't recruit enough soldiers, especially good soldiers. So Germany adopted the 'high salary' strategy. In Germany, the bonuses and allowances for soldiers are very high, and people like us don't work full-time. When I was in the army, including allowances and bonuses, I could basically make 8,000 a month!"
"Then why did you retire?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly, "You should still be able to make a living in the army!"
Walter spread his hands: "I left the army on my own."
"Why?" Xiao Peng asked puzzledly.
Walter was silent for a moment and then said, "In 2012, I was involved in the Kunduz incident."
Xiao Peng was stunned and patted Walter on the shoulder: "That's not your fault. It's the duty of a soldier to obey orders."
Due to historical reasons, Germany has always been "low-key, low-key and low-key" in the military field, but no matter how low-key they are, they are still Germany, one of the ten countries with the strongest military power in the world.
More than a decade ago, in an effort to expand its influence, Germany abandoned its traditional non-interventionist approach and actively participated in international military operations. Germany now has more troops stationed abroad in Europe than any other country, second only to Britain and larger than France. Most of these troops are deployed in peacekeeping operations.
But there are also times when accidents happen.
In 2012, German soldiers on a mission in Afghanistan launched a bombing attack on a terrorist organization in the Kunduz area. However, they failed to hit any terrorists and instead killed 91 civilians.
This incident caused a huge uproar at the time, including the dismissal of many high-ranking officials. Walter originally left the army because of this incident.
Khedira came over and said, "Boss, the wine is ready, let's go!"
Xiao Peng pointed at the roasted papa on the table and said, "Why are you leaving before you've finished eating? What's the rush? Are you too disappointed to see that Bruch has a girlfriend?"
"Boss. Bruch and I are pure!"
"Don't explain, explanation is just covering up!"
