Dong Qiangqiang's Story of Leaving Germany

Chapter 652 652. To give or not to give

At about 20 o'clock in the evening, amidst the cautious dissatisfaction of the men, the women returned home like triumphant warriors.

Considering that everyone has just experienced jet lag and fatigue, if they serve cold food or western food that is not easy to fill, some people may jump their feet.Lao Bai simply didn't ask everyone's opinions, and directly took the group members to the Chinese restaurant with the loudest brand nearby.

Everyone who ate this meal was satisfied, the host and guest had a good time, and the atmosphere couldn't be more harmonious.A car of people laughed and laughed all the way back to the hotel.

According to Lao Bai at the airport, all tour members should pay the tour guide and driver’s tips for the day before dinner every day, but everyone was exhausted during the meal, and Lao Bai just mentioned the tip when he was interrupted by the enthusiastic waiter , Lao Bai, who didn't want to spoil the fun, thoughtfully put this matter behind.

As soon as the car stopped in the hotel parking lot, everyone urged Lei Lanting to help with the hotel check-in procedures as soon as possible, while picking up various handbags in twos and threes, showing off their trophies to each other.

Lei Lanting and Dong Qiangqiang got out of the car and collected everyone's passports. Just as they were going to the front desk of the hotel, Lao Bai stretched out his hand and said, "Wait a minute."

"Everyone has had a hard day today," said Old Bai Lang, "I wonder if everyone is satisfied with our service today?"

As soon as the words came out, there was a lot of positive responses: some praised Laobai discount store for choosing a good one, and some praised Tong Lele for his good bargaining.Although there is no shortage of individual criticisms, compared with the tit-for-tat confrontation at the airport in the morning, the criticism in the evening has been much softer.

"Since everyone is satisfied, I would like to trouble you to combine the tips for the four of us today. One driver and one tour guide per car, that is, 5 Euros per person. There is no upper limit. Thank you for your recognition and support of our work. After Laobai finished speaking, he gave Tong Lele a wink. Tong Lele understood, and walked out of the crowd holding a beautiful paper box, and thanked the crowd while collecting money: "Thank you, thank you."

Seeing that it was Tong Lele who collected the money, the boy band members were generally straightforward, maybe they were really tired. Some people started throwing banknotes into the paper box, while others threw coins.Dong Qiangqiang saw that even the "iron rooster" Zheng threw a few coins into the paper box.

It was the first time for Lei Lanting to experience tipping. Seeing that it went so smoothly, he couldn't help being a little excited. He couldn't help but look sideways at Dong Qiangqiang, and was about to walk to the hotel reception.

"I heard that all German tour guides have a tour guide certificate. Can you show me your tour guide certificate?" A girl with high cheekbones, sunken cheeks, and slanted eyes suddenly opened her mouth delicately, and at the same time blocked the other with her hand. The hand of the girl who was about to throw banknotes into the cardboard box, and the latter was the girl who was forced to sell the rope by black people, "I also know that China's "Tourism Law" has long clearly prohibited tour guides and tourists from compulsory tipping, you are breaking the law Behavior, I can complain to you. In addition, I think your work is not in place today, and many areas need to be improved. For example, my friend was scared by black people today, for example, I have to wait in line for a long time when I pay, etc. If you tomorrow If the service can prevent these things from happening again, then I can still think about it.”

After listening to her, the other women who were about to put the money in the cardboard box looked at each other in blank dismay, and then slowly retracted the hands holding the money.

Lei Lanting had just walked a few meters, when he heard this, he turned back again.

Lao Bai ignored her provocation and explained in a calm tone: "First of all, you should carefully read your travel contract, which contains an explanation clause involving tips: tourists must pay a certain amount after receiving the services of the tour guide and driver. Service fee. Just because the extra cost of tip is not included in it, the travel expenses you pay in China will be lower than the quotations of other travel agencies. The contract stipulates the minimum tip price and service days for each service staff. It doesn’t matter whether you file a complaint in China or in Germany, because there is no violation of any regulations. Secondly, we are indeed negligent about the fact that some members of the group were shocked. We will try our best to avoid similar things from happening again tomorrow, but today After all, we have provided a lot of services." Lao Bai's tone was firm, his attitude was clear, and his words were seasoned without anger, as if he was not surprised by such things.

"We are tired today, you should let us rest as soon as possible, instead of blocking the hotel door to collect money." The woman didn't seem to have read her travel contract, and was speechless by Lao Bai, but she was unwilling to admit defeat directly , I could only stare fiercely at Lao Bai and dragged out a long voice, "If this counts as your service today, I can tell you clearly that I am ~very~not~satisfied!"

"Damn, this lady did a lot of shopping today," Lei Lanting complained to Dong Qiangqiang in a low voice, "I just saw that Lele picked out seven or eight things for her, including three or four coats, all of which were quite heavy. , she still scolded Lele for moving slowly..."

Lao Bai just stood there, motionless, staring at the girl without saying a word, and the girl stared back angrily. The two sides did not back down from each other, and the originally cheerful atmosphere froze.

Tong Lele was very embarrassed holding the paper box. She looked at Lao Bai as if asking for help, as if asking Lao Bai again, "Do you still accept it?"

Dong Qiangqiang knows that as long as one person takes the lead and refuses to give, others will be embarrassed or not in a hurry to give (tips), a typical herd mentality.

There was a stalemate between the two sides for a few minutes, and the older people in the regiment couldn't bear it anymore.

Originally, it was tiring enough to fly for more than ten hours, and I started shopping without eating well. Of course, the shopping is really refreshing, and the dinner is delicious, but people are not strong after all.But the girl refused to let go, Lao Bai did not compromise, and Lei Lanting couldn't rush to check in with more than a dozen passports (he also had his share of the tip).

"Why don't you forget it? It's just a matter of a few dollars... Everyone is a compatriot, and it's so late, it's not good to make a joke here and make foreigners laugh." Someone stood on the moral high ground and tried to persuade Lao Bai to calm down. .

Lao Bai thought for a while, then turned around and ordered Lei Lanting: "Those who give a tip can check in."

Lei Lanting nodded hurriedly, and immediately said to Tong Lele: "Come with me and confront someone."

Tong Lele was relieved, and hurriedly followed Lei Lanting away.

Seeing that Lao Bai was relieved, all the people who had already tipped eagerly dragged their luggage, carrying various paper boxes and bags, and rushed to the hotel lobby.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer people left behind, the other women next to the woman who did not give the tip lowered their heads and whispered in embarrassment, and after a while, they all walked towards the front desk with their heads down and their eyes downcast.

In the blink of an eye, there were only the woman and her companion in front of Lao Bai.
