As the first first-tier scenic spot with considerable fame in China to appear so far, many viewers are full of expectations for the 'Ancient Tea Horse Town'... Following the undercover reporter of the program crew, the camera came to a taxi.
"80!" The driver quoted the price directly.
"Is it not possible to use the meter?"
"It's up to you whether you want to take the bus or not! If you don't want to take the bus, get off immediately! There are plenty of people willing to take the bus! Don't waste your time talking to me, if you don't want to take the bus, get off immediately and don't delay me from soliciting passengers!"
Under normal circumstances, the undercover reporter would definitely not tolerate this, but this is just right for the show!
Undercover reporters are also petty. If you kill me, I will expose you! Otherwise, you treat me like dough and you can knead it however you want.
"Okay, okay, 80 is 80. Big brother, please drive us to the hotel entrance!"
The driver smiled smugly, as if he thought the reporter was easy to bully, but he didn't notice that the reporter was taking pictures of the photographer next to him with his mobile phone.
Twenty minutes later, we arrived at the hotel.
The audience was confused. It was only a 20-minute journey, and you asked for 80? Everyone wanted to see the characteristics of a first-tier scenic spot, but wow, wow, wow, they ripped off the tourists right from the start.
"That's so fucking evil!"
"80 yuan for such a short distance!"
The audience's unpleasant memories were brought back and they denounced the taxi driver in front of the TV. However, what the audience never expected was that this was not the lowest level of the driver's behavior.
After the undercover reporter paid 80 yuan, the driver grabbed the cameraman and refused to let him go.
"His 80 has been paid, but where's your 80?"
The cameraman was also shocked and couldn't help but use a secret camera to take a close-up of the driver, while explaining: "We are together!"
The driver thought the two were easy to bully, and said confidently: "I know you two are together, but who told you it's 80 yuan for both of you? Pay up! You can't take a ride without paying!"
audience:"……"
Good guy, they just called him good guy.
In comparison, those overcharging drivers they met seemed pure and upright compared to this one. What kind of black-hearted and rotten-ass driver is this? How dare you!
Even Jia Qingqing's roommate was filled with righteous indignation. He turned around and asked, "Qingqing, did you encounter any overcharging in the Ancient Tea Horse Town... Qingqing?"
The honest roommate looked around and found that there was no one at the table. He raised his head and saw a person wrapped in the small bed above. Could it be that Jia Qingqing had fallen asleep without anyone noticing?
It's only 7:30 in the evening, and Jia Qingqing is already sleepy?
The honest roommate was a little puzzled and continued to watch the show. Influenced by Jia Qingqing and the reputation of the Ancient Tea Horse Town, the honest roommate had a good impression of it.
So even though the drivers in the scenic area overcharged customers, my honest roommate still had expectations for the Ancient Tea Horse Town.
After all, it is not uncommon for drivers in scenic spots to overcharge tourists. You can't ask scenic spots to keep an eye on every driver and ask them to behave honestly and never overcharge tourists.
My honest roommate thought, if we were traveling with a tour group, we would definitely not encounter this situation - right?
The next shot completely changed the inherent perception of the honest roommate.
Then I saw a tour guide angrily scolding many tourists:
"You don't buy anything, do you still have any conscience?
"I didn't spend a penny. Look at you, you old bastard. You're still showing off here. What's so good about you? I'm going to make this clear today. Everyone must spend 200 yuan. Otherwise, you won't be allowed to get on the bus later."
Honest roommate: “…”
The "scenery" of this ancient tea-horse town is really extraordinary!
She couldn't help but look at Jia Qingqing, who seemed to be asleep and "not making any noise", and couldn't help but wonder, Jia Qingqing seemed to be traveling with a tour group, right? Did she encounter any trouble with the tour group?
Just as I was thinking about it, the program crew had already arrived at the hotel. Not surprisingly, the hotel also canceled the room booked by the undercover reporter and compensated him.
When the audience was wondering what the hotel was doing, they saw that the hotel had released the rooms at many times the original price.
It seemed that they had discussed it beforehand. After seeing such a large number of "customers" arriving, all the hotels in the entire scenic area tacitly raised their prices. The lowest one increased its price to three times the original price.
In front of the undercover reporters and photographers, the boss was still sighing:
"They are so heartless and too much! Their eating habits are so ugly. Just because there are more tourists, the prices have increased five or six times! I, Old Liu, look down on people like them!"
The photographer looked at the house price which had tripled, and then looked at the shop owner. He had a thousand words in his mind, but he didn't know how to express them. After a long while, he just let out a long sigh.
The boss still felt good about himself: "I am different from them. I believe in Buddhism! I have faith. I will never do something like increasing the room price five or six times... You booked the room in advance. I asked others to make up 200 yuan a day. Buddha, you only need to make up 150 yuan. Amitabha!"
"If you want to thank someone, don't thank me, just thank the Buddha!"
The undercover photographer was speechless. He felt that if he didn't give a shot to such an "interesting" person, it would be an injustice to the benevolent Buddha.
The audience was stunned.
Other scenic spots all start with the scenery, but your Tea Horse Ancient Town Scenic Spot only starts with "ripping off tourists".
Occasionally, there would be three to five minutes of footage of overcharging customers, and we could still think that the program crew was targeting you, but more than half of the episode has passed and they are still overcharging. There are so many different kinds of footage and the undercover reporters can’t even film it all.
By the way, do you know that you are participating in a program? On TV?
Can't you prepare in advance and look professional to welcome the arrival of the program crew?
Director Hong of the Tea Horse Ancient Town Scenic Area said to the audience, "You have really wronged me. I have really made preparations. In order to welcome the arrival of the program crew, I held at least eighteen meetings in ten days!"
Director Hong's mouth was twisted with anger.
These businesses and travel agencies, during the meeting, patted their chests loudly and made promises one better than the other, but is this how you do things?
But it is obvious that first-tier scenic spots other than famous scenic spots such as the Ancient Tea Horse Town have already formed a complex network of interests that is difficult to break away from, just like the corrupt Qing Dynasty. Even if Guangxu wants to revive the country, it will not change according to his personal will.
Everyone can shout the slogan of "revitalization", but no one has stopped making money. We can revitalize, but we can't delay our making money...As for dedication? What a joke! I made a contribution, but they took it all away.
Paperhanger? The last humerus... Prime Minister Hefei Tianxiashao, are you kidding me?
Who is thinking who is stupid?
Is it possible to stop a cat from stealing fish or a mouse from stealing rice?
"It's over! It's all over!" Director Hong's eyes went dark and he lay down on his chair, feeling that the Ancient Tea Horse Town had completely gone cold.
