Well, visiting the grottoes allowed Zhang Nan to show his knowledge of historical monuments, and combined with the Dunhuang Grottoes, he let the people who came with him know what Zhiti and Vihara are. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhiti is the meaning of the tower, the Zhiti Cave is equipped with a tower in the center of the cave, so it is also called the tower temple cave, and there is an improved one in Dunhuang. The scale of this type of Zhiti cave is generally relatively large, because it is used for devotees to go around and observe the image, similar to the main hall in a temple.

Vihara, meaning monastery or monastery, is where the monks lived, and there are murals and Buddha statues in it, but the complexity cannot be compared with the former.

After visiting the cave, the time was just two o'clock in the afternoon, and lunch was arranged in the most upscale Indian restaurant in the scenic area. For Indians in this area, it is early to eat Chinese food at this point.

Zhang Nan was hungry early, if it weren't for some bread, it is estimated that he would not even have the strength to visit.

Fortunately, there are such high-end restaurants in the scenic area, otherwise it would be a big problem for Nicole and Jenny to go to the bathroom - not to mention the common Indian toilets, it's scary to think about!

Well, the top of the fine dining restaurant also has the prefix "Indian", and the brother-in-law's "war materiel" is really handy - a large plate per person, which seems to be a piece of dough in the middle, and an omelette on top.

There were also 8 stainless steel bowls with straight cylinders on the plate, and Zhang Nan only recognized that one of the small bowls seemed to be fried chicken nuggets.

Red, green, yellow, black... Seven of the eight bowls were mushy, and they smelled of curry anyway.

The accompanying foreign affairs officer, Mittal, also introduced quite enthusiastically: one of the "mush" also has mutton in it - listening to Zhang Nan, he understands that this is probably a big meal in the eyes of Indians, and he also knows that the price of mutton in India is very expensive.

But Zhang Nan tried a bite of fried eggs - his stomach twitched when he smelled this smell, and he dared to eat it again after remembering the "past"!

Under the pretext of not adapting to the water and soil and poor appetite, Zhang Nan and the two women ate some bread.

Even the bodyguards were similar, and they ate some breadbread, fried eggs, and fried chicken nuggets--- and they didn't eat 800 percent at first.

Luckily, this is a high-end restaurant, and Westerners often come here to eat: freshly baked Western-style bread is still available, at least you don't have to eat the cold bread you brought, which is the only good news.

Don't worry about the unhygienic bread in the restaurant, the temperature in the oven is high, even if there are bacteria or something, it will be ruined.

And Zhang Nan suspects that the water quality in the creeks outside is better than the tap water in Mumbai, at least not much pollution.

Thanks to the woods and mountains.

As soon as I finished eating, I had to leave the Ajanta Caves, which was in the real mountainous countryside of India, and the convoy had just driven out, and Zhang Nan, who was worried about his stomach for the next few days, suddenly discovered a new continent!

"Alyosha, inform the lead car to stop. ”

The boss ordered, and the big guy immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and called.

Did you find something good?

It's very simple, the countryside is on the side, and Zhang Nan saw a group of chickens running around!

Don't think crooked, it's the kind with wings, authentic Indian native chickens, not the kind of European broilers raised on chicken farms in Mumbai City, and they don't even have their hair!

As soon as everyone got out of the car, Mittal who was sitting in the front car walked over, "Mr. Allen, what's the problem?"

Zhang Nan was a little embarrassed, and pointed to the chickens that were looking for food not far from the side of the road and a few farmers passing by, "Mr. Mittal, I want to buy some live chickens to take back." ”

Mr. India's eyes widened!

Well, Mirta has also received a lot of foreigners, and has seen a lot of people who are not used to Indian food, and has dealt with a lot of strange requests, but this is the first time I have encountered this drama of catching live chickens in the countryside!

Mirta was born into a Brahmin family, and she had never touched a live chicken, so she didn't know what to do with it.

He also had no experience working with farmers.

Don't look down on Indian farmers, some local newspapers in India often publish news such as "a certain farmer's family of 20 went to Europe for a month".

Of course, the word "peasant" in the eyes of the Indian media and officials is completely praised, and the peasant also needs to pay no taxes, and his income is higher than that of the vast majority of civil servants, even dozens or hundreds of times higher!

Because the concept of "peasant" in India generally refers to at least rich peasants, to put it bluntly, landlords: in other words, the concept of Huaxia refers to those landlords who have at least a few hundred acres of land at home, or even thousands of acres.

Many landlords in India also work, unlike "Liu Wencai", but generally do technical farm work, such as driving tractors to plough the land, and other jobs are hired by hired farmers.

Moreover, the price of agricultural products in India has been very stable, and the Indian government will also give a lot of agricultural subsidies, so the life of "farmers" is very nourishing.

Coupled with the fact that these farmers are generally of the upper castes, it is not impossible to go to Europe for a luxury January tour of the whole family in seven countries.

What about those who hire farmers and have little land?

I'm sorry, but many high-level people in India don't classify them as "farmers" at all.

There is no way for the foreign affairs department, but the officer who led the team was born in the countryside, and there is a way!

I took two policemen to the village, found the landlord, and soon returned with the owner's family with five or six live chickens, also in a bamboo basket.

Originally, the landlord heard that it was a foreign dignitary who wanted to buy live chickens, although it was very strange, but he also wanted to invite everyone to his home, at least to have a cup of afternoon tea in advance.

Indian landlords, many of them are very rich!

Tractors are driven, luxury off-road vehicles are also driven, and the small landlord's house has at least four or five servants casually, and dozens or hundreds of servants are serving!

Zhang Nan was a little embarrassed, because the other party refused to accept money at all - people didn't care about a few chickens at all, and if they forced the money, they would look down on the other party.

Fortunately, Jenny has a solution: there are two large boxes of chocolates made in West Germany in the car, which I originally came out to snack on, but I didn't move it before, which will be just right as a return gift.

Indians generally like sweets such as sweets, and such gifts are just right.

Well, one of the Land Rovers stuffed a few chickens in the back and galloped all the way back to Mumbai.

Upon entering Mumbai, the jeep with a cage of local chickens left the convoy and they were led by a SWAT officer to the police barracks and return to the hotel later.

Live chickens, if they are brought back to the Taj Mahal Hotel, even if the hotel is not crazy, Zhang Nan will not be able to do such a strange thing.

"When the banquet is over in the evening, go back to the room and I'll make you stewed chicken. ”

Zhang Nan said to the two women that there was no need to think about the issue of preservation: he didn't think that by tomorrow, there would be something left of the five or six slaughtered chickens, and it was estimated that they would be eaten up tonight.

Brother-in-law, Brother Guan, Thomas...... Those hungry wolves are waiting, just now I felt that Alyosha's eyes were green when he looked at those chickens!

Returning to the hotel at 5 p.m., the banquet does not officially start until 8 p.m., and the activities of Indians are so late, many people do not get to work until that o'clock.

It's not overtime, it's a habit: it's half past nine or ten o'clock for breakfast, and it's usually 3 o'clock in the afternoon for Chinese food, and everything is pushed back.

Why it's too hot during the day.

Anyway, Indians go to bed quite late at night, and someone in Zhang Nan joked: The two big black circles under Indians are caused by sleeping too late all their lives.

Of course, this is for those who are in good condition, and for the poor, there is obviously no such thing as going to work at 10 o'clock to catch the morning rush hour.

didn't care about anything, he didn't even take a shower when he went back to the hotel suite, Zhang Nan went to a whole pot of rice first, and then his brother-in-law and Brother Guan came: a few people cooked first, otherwise at night, don't say whether the food can be eaten, even if it can be eaten, it will be half starved to death when it is time to eat.

Besides, there is also a Daniel who is in the same room as Zack shouting for help: for lunch, he nibbles bread and mineral water, and the taste of those Indian nutritious meals is said to kill!

If it weren't for the fact that he was really lacking in strength, the chef comrade would have been slightly injured and unable to cook in the line of fire.

The bodyguards were supposed to eat in advance, and thanks to this damn schedule, Alyosha and the others could only find a way to get something to eat.

Only there was a kitchen in the presidential suite, and the guys came to help out on their own: Zach all ran outside to find a vegetable store and bought spinach, cucumbers, tomatoes and cabbage, which are common in India.

The meat is only chicken and lamb, and I didn't dare to buy it.

The chickens were soon delivered, and there was not much chicken skin left, in order to pluck the feathers faster. Take the easiest, quickest and laziest way: rinse again with mineral water, add a very small amount of fennel and ginger to remove the chicken feathers, first boil the water, and then stew in the pressure cooker and eat it with soy sauce.

……

After eating a meal, there is still more than an hour, and they go back to their rooms to rest and prepare.

The gatherings and dinners of high-level people in India are notoriously luxurious, and this Zhang Nan has heard of it before, so he has prepared for this trip.

I can't let Ah San look at it.

Men, they need low-key luxury, even their brother-in-law and Brother Guan each wore a Patek Philippe from the 30s, and after returning to New York, they turned it out of a bunch of boxes, and Zhang Nan gave them gifts.

These two are no ordinary bodyguards, and everyone else understands them.

Zhang Nan himself wore a Patek Philippe 1928 platinum single-button chronograph with a very simple appearance, a suit and shirt custom-made by a British tailor in New York, and a pair of summer thin sheepskin leather shoes made by an old brand shoe store in New York.

Sheepskin shoes, that's because here in India, cowhide drops are inconvenient.

That's it, my hair was washed, and I didn't wear any other rings or other unit jewelry. Those who know the clothes look at at least $50,000 or more, although the buttons seem to be just the most ordinary horn buttons, and the shirt buttons are not full of diamond buttons.

The shirt and suit cost Zhang Nan a full 80,000 US dollars, and Nicole made three sets of different styles in the tailor's shop.

As for the number of people who can recognize the watch, it is estimated that there are not many people, but as long as they can see it, they know that the watch is at least more than $3 million!

In fact, even if Zhang Nan wears the cheapest clothes to the banquet, no one will look down on him for the first time officials, stars and famous directors: not to mention other private jets or anything, when Jenny and Nicole finished dressing up and came out of the bedroom, they all blinded a group of people in the living room!

When Indians attend lavish and top-notch banquets, all women will definitely put a lot of effort into dressing up and wearing the best jewelry, and the focus of tonight will not be those Bollywood female stars, it will definitely be their two women!

Zhang Nan is absolutely confident in this.

For Indians, the value of a man depends on how much jewelry his woman has, and this problem seems to be basically common all over the world, except for the Middle Eastern tyrants who wrap women from head to toe and can't go out.

Nicole and Jenny had just spent more than an hour dressing themselves up and getting makeup. Nicole chose a red evening dress, while Jenny chose a purple one, which was bright and moving.

None of this is the point: the point is that the image of two women wearing jewelry can be on the cover of several major fashion magazines in the United States.

Expensive, rare, unique...... A few pieces of jewelry, add adjectives casually!

When the time comes, as long as you see Nicole and Jenny's jewelry, you can imagine the worth of Mr. Allen, a Wall Street financial giant.

"A man's worth is seen from a woman. Zhang Nan thought with a smile, "Okay, I hope it won't be too high-profile." ”
