Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

After hearing Yu Fangfang's admiration, Cao Zhiqiang just smiled lightly and didn't feel anything special.

Nothing else, the more I hear similar words, the higher my happiness threshold is, that's all.

Anyway, those who have visited his place dare not say everything, but most of them will say something similar.

This is actually quite normal. After all, in this period of time in China, apart from foreign guests and expatriates, at least in the capital, it is really unheard of that there are few locals in the capital who will stay in a big hotel like the Peking Hotel for a long time, and they will stay in the administrative office for a long time. It is a high-end room like a suite.

You said that there are several households with ten thousand yuan, and it is understandable to come here occasionally to try something new and spend money to live for a few nights, but there is really no one who lives on a monthly basis for a long time.

The reason is not complicated, and it has nothing to do with identity or not. In fact, there is only one reason - the price is too expensive and not worth it.

Take the executive suite where Cao Zhiqiang lives now as an example.

The cost of living in this suite for one day is 560 yuan, which is already the annual income of ordinary Beijing workers.

Cao Zhiqiang's monthly subscription fee is 5000 yuan a month, with a down payment of [-] yuan. On average, the daily consumption is [-] yuan.

5000 yuan, just to stay in a hotel for a month?
In this era when [-]-yuan households are still scarce, how many [-]-yuan households can afford this method, or are willing to spend like this?

Therefore, the so-called monthly subscriptions are usually done by foreign tourists who are not short of money, especially tourists from Japan.

Therefore, those who can live in executive suites during this period are either foreign guests or some high-level domestic leaders, and ordinary people simply cannot afford to live in them.

As for what level is not enough, the Chinese are not allowed to move in without a letter of introduction and a work certificate, that is all fooling people.

In other words, it is deliberately so publicized, so that some people will quit in advance, and don't make excuses to visit and waste everyone's time.

During this period, hotels in China did not have a star rating system, so they were roughly divided into foreign-related hotels and non-foreign-related hotels.

Non-foreign-related hotels are basically like guest houses and ordinary hotels, which are generally owned by the government or state-owned enterprises, that is, they are all state-owned or collectively owned, and there are no individual hotels.

Of course, some small hotels have begun to be contracted by private parties, but the ownership of those privately contracted hotels is still collectively or state-owned, which remains unchanged.

Non-foreign-related hotels like this, especially privately contracted small guest houses, have relatively loose requirements, and no mandatory letter of introduction is required. Basically, individuals can stay, as long as they register and pay a deposit.

Hotels with foreign-related qualifications are different.

This kind of hotel with foreign qualifications, because it can receive foreign guests and foreigners, is equivalent to the facade of a country, so the requirements are relatively strict.

It is rumored that foreign-related restaurants are only open to foreigners and foreigners. This is wrong. In fact, Chinese people can also go in and live there, but the requirements for Chinese people are stricter.

In the era of no ID card, if Chinese people want to stay in foreign-related hotels, especially famous hotels like Peking Hotel, they need to issue your work permit and unit introduction letter, and these are not enough, you have to call your introduction letter Please confirm with your unit whether there is really such a person as you.

The purpose of doing this is to confirm your identity, and to verify your capital. The fundamental reason is that you are afraid that you are a liar and you will not be paid for staying in a hotel.

But if you are willing to pay a deposit first and bring your household registration book, you can also live in. It is not necessary to have a letter of introduction from the unit and a work permit.

Because you paid the deposit first, the hotel has no risk, so it is naturally willing to let you live.

But this kind of situation where there is only a household registration book and no work permit or letter of introduction, so they can only live in ordinary rooms and cannot live in administrative rooms.

In this period, the executive room is a room that can highlight its status.

There are no restrictions on foreign guests and foreigners in this kind of executive room, but if Chinese want to live in an executive suite, they must have a work permit or a letter of introduction from a regular state-owned enterprise, and their rank or position must be high enough, or they must be familiar with the general manager of the hotel, not just money. of.

This is the case with Cao Zhiqiang. He has a formal work permit and is the president of a publishing house. His position is high enough.

As for the manager of the Peking Hotel, he had confirmed Cao Zhiqiang's identity long ago, and knew that he was a decent person who was not short of money.

And the most important thing is that the manager of the Peking Hotel is also a lover of poetry, and he likes Cao Zhiqiang's poems very much, so after knowing that Cao Zhiqiang is a strong poet, and knowing that he is rich enough and the president of a publishing house, there is no reason not to let him live.

But if ordinary Chinese want to stay in a hotel in Peking, it will be very troublesome. Many times, even if you have money, they will not let you stay, and will deliberately make things difficult for you.

But if you are an overseas Chinese foreign guest, then foreign-related restaurants are quite friendly.

It seems that in the mid-80s, there was a Chinese who pretended to be the manager of Heung Kong and stayed at the Peking Hotel, and was arrested only after the incident was revealed.

In any case, Cao Zhiqiang's ability to live in the executive suite of the Peking Hotel for a long time at this time is a symbol of strength and status in itself.

Because as long as his strength and status are not enough, it is impossible for him to live in the executive room of the Peking Hotel, and he will stay there for a long time.

As long as you can realize these, can you not admire and envy.

After a little modesty, Cao Zhiqiang stopped being polite, and asked Yu Fangfang directly: "You two sisters, it's so late, you came here to find me, what's the matter?"

Yu Fangfang rolled her eyes at Cao Zhiqiang: "Why, I can't come to you if I have nothing to do?"

Cao Zhiqiang quickly apologized and said, "Of course I didn't mean that, but I'm really surprised that you came so suddenly."

"Hmph!" Yu Fangfang curled her lips, "Don't you just dislike my light bulb? If only Yuanyuan came, would you ask me that?"

Before Cao Zhiqiang could speak, Yu Yuanyuan couldn't help but tugged at Yu Fangfang's arm: "Sister, what are you talking about?"

"Am I wrong?" Yu Fangfang said, "Look at him, he is reluctant, doesn't he just hate me for coming? If you are the only one coming, I dare to make a big picture, he will definitely be happy Jumping up from the ground is definitely not the attitude.”

Cao Zhiqiang was depressed when he heard that.

I thought about my attitude, my attitude is good enough, but I am smiling and giving drinks, what else do I want?

This Yu Fangfang didn't mean to find fault, right?
While Cao Zhiqiang was muttering to himself, Yu Yuanyuan hurriedly said to Cao Zhiqiang: "Zhiqiang, don't pay attention to her, my sister is like this, she likes to joke."

"Hehe." Cao Zhiqiang chuckled, "It's okay."

Yu Yuanyuan then continued: "Actually, there is nothing else, that is, I just heard from my dad that you took the college entrance examination pre-examination and got a good result in the exam. After I found out, I was very happy for you.

Well, I just wanted to call you to celebrate, but, but my sister insisted on pulling me out, saying that it is impolite to call to celebrate, and asked me to come to you in person and celebrate with you face to face. "

Speaking of this, Yu Yuanyuan paused, and said:
"By the way, I also want to thank you for helping me that day.

If I didn't have you by my side that day, I, I really don't know what would become of me.

Actually, I wanted to thank you a long time ago, but I knew you were going to prepare for the exam, so I didn't bother you.

Well, now I know you've finished the exam, so I'll come over to thank you and congratulate you by the way. "

"Ah, that's it." Cao Zhiqiang suddenly said, "Actually, sister, why are we so polite? For such a trivial matter, you can just make a phone call, why go all the way."

"That's not sincere enough." Yu Yuanyuan smiled slightly.

"Then thank you, sister." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Thank you for your congratulations, as for the previous thanks, they are all due."

"Yeah." Yu Yuanyuan pursed her lips, then stood up suddenly and said, "Okay, I, I came here to thank you in person, and congratulate you again, since there is nothing wrong, then, then I'm leaving .”

After finishing speaking, Yu Yuanyuan was about to pull Yu Fangfang away.

But Yu Fangfang was not happy: "What are you going to do, I haven't eaten yet."

Speaking of this, Yu Fangfang looked at Cao Zhiqiang: "Cao Zhiqiang, our family Yuanyuan didn't eat dinner just to see you, can you make some arrangements?"

"Sister!" Yu Yuanyuan was anxious, and quickly pulled Yu Fangfang's arm, "What are you doing?"

"What are you doing?" Yu Fangfang said, "He is your good brother, and you haven't eaten, so what's the problem with him arranging a meal?"

Speaking of this, Yu Fangfang looked at Cao Zhiqiang: "No problem, right?"

Cao Zhiqiang laughed dryly: "Of course, of course there's no problem, and I didn't eat it, just so, let's go to the restaurant to eat together."

"No, I can't." Yu Yuanyuan blushed a little, "No, I didn't mean that, I, I won't eat!"

"What's going on!" Yu Fangfang suddenly stood up, "Come with me!"

After finishing speaking, Yu Fangfang pulled Yu Yuanyuan aside, and whispered in her ear: "You are stupid, can't you see that this is me creating an opportunity for you? You come in a hurry, leave in a hurry, there is a fart use?
You have to have a meal with him, chat with him, and it's better to go to a movie, that's the person to talk to. "

"What are you talking about!" Yu Yuanyuan blushed and whispered, "Sister, I'm not, I don't have one!"

"All right, all right, stop pretending!" Yu Fangfang curled her lips, "What are you pretending to do in front of me?"

Looking back at Cao Zhiqiang who stood up, but did not follow, Yu Fangfang continued to say to Yuanyuan:

"Yuanyuan, I have seen your situation these days.

These days, you don't think about food and drink all day long, and others think that it's because of your falling out with Yang Weiguo, and because of this, Wei Min even fell out with his brother.

But I know that you are not sad for that bastard, you are thinking about Cao Zhiqiang. "

"without me……"

"Hush!" Yu Fangfang stopped Yu Yuanyuan, "Keep down, are you afraid people won't hear you?"

After Yuanyuan shut up, Yu Fangfang continued to whisper in her ear: "Yuanyuan, although Cao Zhiqiang is younger than you, he is really nice.

Apart from being younger than you, the only problem he has left is that he is not highly educated.

But now it seems that as long as he plays normally, he will be admitted to university.

Why did our dad ask about Cao Zhiqiang's pre-examination results, and why did he deliberately mention it in front of you?

Isn't that what I want to tell you?
In fact, Cao Zhiqiang is really a good man, capable, capable, handsome, good character, a good man who can't be found with a lantern.

If it weren't for the age difference between me and him, and knowing him later than you, I would have wanted to chase him.

Such a man, you have to hurry up and stop hesitating.

If you continue to hesitate, when he is chased away by other little girls, you will have no place to cry. "

Yu Yuanyuan bit her lip: "But, but I'm his sister."

"Sister or not." Yu Fangfang curled her lips, "Damn, it's not relative, there is no blood relationship at all, what are you afraid of?"

Yu Yuanyuan shook her head: "But, but..."

"What is it?" Yu Fangfang frowned, "Oh my good sister, if you have something to say, just say it, I'm so anxious!"

Yu Yuanyuan then said: "But, I have already rejected him before, and said that we can only be siblings, and now, now let me go after him, this, this, I can't bear this face."

"Hey!" Yu Fangfang sighed, "Yuanyuan, what time is it, do you still want to lose face? Believe it or not, once Cao Zhiqiang goes to college, once his identity is known, there will definitely be a bunch of little girls chasing him .

If you don't hurry up to establish a relationship with him while he is still single, what will you do when he really has a girlfriend?
Are you really willing to be his sister for the rest of your life?
You really don't want him to be your husband? "

Yu Yuanyuan pursed her lips again: "But, but I can't, I, I can't say it."

"That's why I came here to be your matchmaker!" Yu Fangfang said, "Then, it doesn't matter if you don't understand, just listen to me later, and I'll help you match the match."

"Can this work?" Yu Yuanyuan couldn't help but ask.

"Why not." Yu Fangfang said, "Actually, I have already seen that you and that Cao Zhiqiang are thin-skinned people, but they both like each other.

Therefore, if you want to pierce the window paper by yourself, you don't know the year of the monkey.

At this time, I need my matchmaker to help.

You listen to me, as long as I find a way to help you pierce the window paper, match you up, and let him know that you like him too and want to date him, then he will definitely be happy.

Of course, it would be easy to frighten him if he directly said no, so he had to find a suitable opportunity.

That's why I dragged you to him at night and asked him to treat you to dinner.

Eating and drinking at this dinner table, once the chatterbox is opened, it is easy to talk.

Also, when we eat later, I will try to persuade him to drink more, and you have to cooperate with me to drink more.

When he gets drunk, we'll take him back to the room, and then you take the opportunity to take off each other's clothes, lie on the same bed with him, and sleep under the same quilt.

Until he wakes up tomorrow morning, you immediately scream loudly, and then I immediately barge in, creating a fait accompli and making him have to admit it, understand? "

"Ah?" Yu Yuanyuan was stunned, "Sister, you, you, you..."

"Hush!" Yu Fangfang raised her right index finger again, "Hush!"

Looking back at Cao Zhiqiang, he found that the other party had actually picked up a book and was reading it, so Yu Yuanyuan whispered again:
"Silly sister, I'm doing this for your own good!

If not, what if he is tender and shy, or afraid of what others will say, but refuses to be nice to you?
Men are fickle. They treated you well before, but they may not treat you well now.

Maybe, there is no hope with you, and he will find another woman when he turns around.

Therefore, we have to create some fait accompli and tie him to your side completely.

So what can you do to tie him?Of course it is the body!
If you don't want to be his sister for the rest of your life, then listen to me, and I promise to help you do it properly! "

"I, I..." Yu Yuanyuan blushed a little, and then peeked at Cao Zhiqiang on the other side.

Finally, Yu Yuanyuan pursed her lips and nodded: "I'll listen to you, sister."

"That's right!" Yu Fangfang smiled and patted Yu Yuanyuan's shoulder.

"Yuanyuan, I am your sister, your own sister, I will never harm you!
Don't worry, wait and see what happens to me, you two, leave it to me!
I will definitely make your marriage come true!

In the future, if the matter between the two of you is settled, just don't forget your sister! "

Yu Yuanyuan bit her lip, then took another peek at Cao Zhiqiang.

After thinking and thinking, Yu Yuanyuan finally made up her mind and nodded to Fangfang: "Yes! I understand, I'll listen to you, sister!"
