Chapter 1097 Day 1
Han Li saw the other side of England right after he entered the bar. The music and people were wild.
Quiet and introverted people sat at the bar and booths to drink, but they looked at the people in the middle of the dance floor with longing in their eyes.
Indulgent and extroverted people, some of them twisted their bodies wildly in the dance floor, some twisted and danced at the edge of the dance floor with wine glasses, and some gathered in the booths, chatting, flirting, and drinking.
However, whether it was the people in the middle of the dance floor, the edge of the dance floor, or the people gathered in the booths, they all had one thing in common, that is, their hands were not honest, and in many cases they might be placed somewhere.
Dance partner? Is it important? There were so many people in the dance floor, and the original dance partner became someone else while dancing.
As for whether the dance partner is a man or a woman, is it important? As long as you can dance to the beat of the music, it’s fine.
Han Li listened to the wild music, ordered a few bottles of beer, and asked the waiter to find him a quiet booth. Maybe Han Li gave a lot of tips, the waiter said something before leaving.
"This guest is the first time here, and the current situation is just warming up. It will become more and more lively and more hehe later. If you need it, just call me, I can arrange a quiet booth on the second floor for you."
Han Li still had something to not understand after hearing this, but he just smiled, opened a bottle of beer, drank while watching the people twisting passionately on the dance floor.
After the song ended, the people on the dance floor returned to their original seats, the music in the bar changed to softer music, and the lights became a little dim.
Those who like ballroom dancing began to walk to the dance floor in such music, but their dancing posture, distance, and the position of their hands were hard to describe.
Especially those dance partners with a huge height difference, they became like little birds while dancing.
At this time, the door of the bar was pushed open again, and a girl wearing a dress, a T-shirt with messy patterns on it, and a denim skirt walked in.
At this moment, there was no vacant seat on the first floor of the bar. The waiter discussed with Han Li and placed the two girls next to Han Li.
Han Li did not do anything except nodding and smiling at them at the beginning. He had just arrived and didn't know anything about the situation. It was good to be a handsome man quietly.
The two girls were also out to play. After drinking a glass of beer, the music happened to be what they liked, so they put down their glasses and went to dance.
Their names are not important. What is important is that after a few glasses of wine and a few dances, they became interested in Han Li, a foreigner who was just sitting there drinking.
The topic of communication between the three people was opened like this. After a while, Han Li figured out the situation of the two of them, and his actions became a little bolder.
Han Li refilled a few bottles of beer with them, and then told a few adult jokes.
Their chat venue was changed to a secluded booth on the second floor. Although dancing was not allowed here, the sight was good and they could clearly see the situation on the dance floor downstairs.
The three of them drank for a while, and after the voice came from the seat not far away, they also followed the action in this booth.
An hour and a half later, when Han Li left the bar, the people in the dance floor had changed, but the atmosphere was still very high, and even more so than before.
As for the two girls who drank and played games with Han Li, they were sitting in the booth on the second floor at this moment. The table was full of drinks that Han Li had already paid for. Their faces were flushed as they watched Han Li leave.
It was about eleven o'clock when Han Li returned to the hotel he had booked. After taking a shower, he took out tea sets, tea leaves, and charcoal stoves from the decomposition space, and took some sweet mountain spring water from the vast peach garden to make himself a cup of tea.
Han Li sat by the window, drinking the most comfortable cup of tea since he came to England, and recalled the news he had just received from communicating with the two girls.
It turned out that this kind of bar activity in England had already appeared in the 1970s.
And it appeared under the guidance of the government. At that time, the government proposed a night economic development plan, mainly to develop various bars and nightclubs.
It is said that this plan can not only restore the traditional bar culture of England, but also improve the situation of dark and dead silence in the city center at night, and stimulate the development of the entertainment industry.
So, under this revival plan mainly based on bars and nightclubs, everyone will go to bars and nightclubs to consume after finishing a day's work under the guidance of the above consciousness.
In order to grab customers, the decoration and facilities of bars and nightclubs have been improving, and various services and styles have become more and more. However, over the years, the distance between them has gradually been pulled apart.
The bar that Han Li went to today can only be regarded as very ordinary. There are many bars and nightclubs with higher grades and better conditions in London.
Of course, there are bars of lower quality than this one, but they are full of manual laborers and people who have just lost their jobs. The smell in the air is hard to describe.
Moreover, the customers of such bars drink low-quality strong liquor, and many people are very dissatisfied with their work and current life, so there are fights every few days.
So, as long as they are not seeking excitement and have a little financial resources, they will not choose to go to that kind of bar to consume.
In addition, those unemployed people do not have so much money to consume in bars, but they also need to relax themselves.
Therefore, many people hold ladder parties in those factories that have been relocated and abandoned.
The scene is decorated with tape recorders, speakers, and cheap colored lights and bulbs. The participants bring their own drinks and everyone gathers together to revel all night.
However, in this situation, there are more people who drink, fight, and graffiti. Because of the noise and garbage, they have been complained countless times by the surrounding residents, but the superiors have not taken any action on this.
Han Li drank two cups of tea beautifully and lay down to sleep, but at this moment, there are still many people on the streets of London, and there are still many young people with shaved heads and similar patterns and letters tattooed on their faces and bodies.
Among them, even women have short hair, similar patterns and letters tattooed on their bodies, and some have lip piercings and tongue piercings.
However, most of the more reserved ones among them tattoo these letters inside their mouths or other places that are not easy to be discovered. Only a few women will tattoo them on their faces.
These young people are a subculture that emerged in England in the 1960s. They represent the working class and are called Bald D by outsiders.
Now England's economic downturn and high unemployment rate have awakened this subculture again.
The next day, when Han Li opened his eyes, the sky outside was still very dark. He simply stretched his muscles and bones in the room, boiled a pot of water and made a cup of tea for himself while washing.
Finally, Han Li sat in front of the table with a teacup and began to plan his general itinerary for the day.
No matter how good the plan is, it is useless, otherwise there would not be an old saying that plans cannot keep up with changes.
After the sky was completely bright, Han Li got dressed, went downstairs and asked the hotel waiter about the most famous Chinese restaurant nearby and rushed over.
It is said that this kind of Western-style Chinese food is very unpalatable, but since Han Li has come to a foreign country, he must taste it anyway to have a say.
This restaurant was not too far from the hotel where Han Li was staying, and there were not many people here when he arrived.
Han Li saw that the sign above said Cantonese cuisine, and thought that Cantonese cuisine was fine, and it was better than steamed and boiled potatoes.
However, when Han Li sat down and looked at the sign on the wall and was thinking about what to eat, an old lady's voice came from outside the door, and it was Cantonese that Han Li sounded a little familiar.
"Aqiu, I heard that your daughter is amazing this time."
