Chapter 237 This person is useless
Chinese people who come to live in France will definitely not be able to adapt to the French nightlife.
Although it gets dark late here, most shops are closed at around 7 or 8 pm, and public transportation is not well developed at night. It is not so bad in the city, but it is even worse in the countryside.
Take La Ciotat where Xiao Peng lives, for example. After eight or nine o'clock, there is basically no place open except for restaurants and the only "Hull Bar".
In China, there are all kinds of nightlife at night: uncles and aunts can go to dance in the square, and the rest of the people can go to eat skewers, snacks, sing karaoke, dance, go to a teahouse to drink tea, play mahjong and cards, go to an Internet cafe, take a sauna, and so on.
And in France?
Boring to death at night!
People here eat late, usually around 8 or 9 p.m., and then they can sleep in after a full meal. Paris is a bit better, with evenings spent enjoying cabarets and museums. But Marseille? There are basically only three main nightlife options: gyms, bars, and nightclubs. And then...
It’s gone!
There's not even a KTV here!
There are a few KTVs in Paris, all owned by Chinese people. If you ask French people on the street, many of them don't even know what a KTV is! Many French people only discovered KTVs after arriving in China and fell in love with them.
As for dancing square dance like the old Chinese people, it is even more impossible here.
Public intellectuals would say that this is because French elderly people like their families and don’t like to go out.
This is pure bullshit! The people who love going out the most are the French! It’s not that they don’t want to go out, it’s that they don’t dare to go out at night!
In a country with a population smaller than Jiangsu and an area smaller than Qinghai, the urban crime rate is astonishingly high!
Not to mention Marseille, the long-established "crime capital," but even in their capital, Paris, crime is increasing at a rate of 15% every year! Most crimes are robbery, robbery, rape, and human trafficking (controlling women for sex).
But generally speaking, it's much better here than in America. After all, there aren't that many guns here, and most robberies here are done with knives or bare hands. So getting robbed and stolen is pretty normal, but the chances of getting killed are slim.
The elderly and women are the easiest targets for these criminals. Do these elderly people dare to go out?
Young people all over the world are full of energy, and having nothing to do at night is a real bummer. Ruins solves this problem; they've cleaned up abandoned factories and turned them into their secret base.
Xiao Peng was sure that he had arrived at the 'ruins'. The buildings here were extremely old and covered with graffiti of various colors and patterns.
Before we even approached the ruined buildings, we heard a chaotic mix of arguing and music. There was indeed a party going on, and it wasn't just one building; music was emanating from several. In front of each building, there were many young people, both men and women, chatting, dancing, skateboarding, playing football, and so on.
When Xiao Peng and others came over, many people surrounded them and invited them to join their party.
However, these parties are not free. The 20 yuan ticket provides two free bottles of beer.
"Isn't it free?" Xiao Peng asked as he took out the flyer.
After seeing the flyer, a girl dressed in hip-hop clothes jumped out and said, "Hey, this is our guest!" Then she took Xiao Peng's arm and left without saying anything.
Xiao Peng was confused. What the hell did this mean?
"Beautiful lady, don't be anxious!" Xiao Peng pushed the girl's hand away. "I came here to look for someone. Have you seen a Chinese girl?"
"You are talking about the king, right?" the girl asked directly after hearing it.
"Turtle?" Xiao Peng almost laughed out loud: "Ahem, you're right, I'm talking about Turtle. Have you seen her?"
The girl pointed around and said, "In the 'ruins' you can find people from all over the world, but the only yellow people you see are Japanese. The only Chinese girl here is Wang."
Xiao Peng became excited: "Where is she?"
The girl spread her hands. "How should I know? She was here the night before last. After she got the job, she left. She only comes here when she doesn't have any customers."
"Got the job?" Xiao Peng was stunned: "What is she doing here?"
The girl said indifferently, "What else can I do? Accompanying men, of course. Are you her friend or a regular customer?"
"Wang Shuang is doing this now?" Xiao Peng widened his eyes.
The girl smiled and said, "What else?" At this point, she lowered her voice and said, "Sir, would you like some smoking lollipops? Guaranteed top quality. 25 each!"
Xiao Peng shook his head: "Thank you, I'm not interested in this!"
This wasn't his first day in Marseille. What was a "smoking lollipop"? It was a high concentration of cocaine! Besides the marijuana epidemic in France, the cocaine epidemic was even more of a problem! He already knew what this party was hoping to make money from! It turned out to be selling exclusive products!
France's monopoly problem can be described as 'serious'.
The European Statistical Office proposed that drug trafficking and sex transactions should also be included in GDP. As one of the core countries of the European Union, France naturally took the unification very seriously. After calculation, it was found that the annual output value of drug trafficking in France was 3 billion euros, which is equivalent to 0.2% of France's GDP!
What's even more impressive is that it supports over 20,000 full-time drug dealers, meaning there's one drug dealer for every 1,000 full-time workers in France! This doesn't even include part-time dealers who sell drugs as a sideline. In France, most gang conflicts are drug-related.
The girl listened to Xiao Peng's words but did not give up. Instead, she leaned on Xiao Peng and rubbed her chest against his arm. "Don't refuse to try new things. Feel the thrill of flying. Believe me, you will love this feeling! It will make you go to heaven alive!"
Xiao Peng shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, I don't believe in religion or heaven. I'm just here to find a friend. Chinese people don't touch that stuff."
"Tsk." The girl said disdainfully, "That's because you haven't touched it before. Wang liked it so much after he touched it! Don't worry, our injection tools here are not clean. They are all new and unused."
After hearing this, Xiao Peng frowned and stopped. Wang Shuang is fucking useless!
He stopped and turned to Walter and said, “Let’s go.”
Walter was stunned: “Leave? You’re not looking for anyone?”
Xiao Peng shook his head and said, "Don't look for her anymore. This person is useless! Finding her will only bring trouble to myself!"
This is not an exaggeration. He is a drug addict and a prostitute. His future... Alas.
In fact, there are many people like Wang Shuang. When they go abroad, no one cares about them. They don't know anyone around them. They throw away the masks they used to wear and start to indulge themselves. If they can't control themselves, they will be ruined!
But when they saw Xiao Peng and his group about to leave, several people surrounded them and asked, "Hey, you came here and didn't spend any money, and you want to leave?"
"Consumption? Isn't it free?"
