Chapter 427: Follow Me If You Want to Play
Manila's civil servants are paid in the upper middle range, but the benefits are unmatched. Enjoy the preferential benefits provided by the government in many aspects, such as free medical care, welfare housing, pension insurance, paid holidays, and children's education. As long as you become a government servant, although you will not be rich and wealthy in your life, you can definitely become a member of the middle class.
Although the benefits of government officials are good, they are managed very strictly. Don't look at those chengguan and mounted police, but as long as you don't violate Manila's city management regulations and law and order regulations, they must keep a smile and serve with a smile, and even have detailed rules for speaking when on duty. If you find that law enforcement officers are extortion, extortion and harathing, or even their attitude is arrogant, you can go to the Independent Commission Against Corruption of the city government to complain.
The Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) is an independent unit directly under the board of directors of the Far East Company, and is at the same level as the Luzon Management Committee, and they have the right to summon government officials for tea at any time and place. Government officials who neglect their duties and abuse their power for personal gain will face severe punishment by law once the evidence is conclusive.
Often, when government workers break the law, they will be punished more severely, and their credit rating will be reduced to the minimum. It can be said that many opportunities will be lost in a lifetime.
The current situation of the Far Eastern Company is not suitable for the immediate establishment of the country. However, the company still set up a preparatory group for the founding of the country to make preparations for the future of the founding of the country. Manila is a newly developed city and the first city to be built to modern standards.
Therefore, the company's preparatory team for the founding of the country will take Manila as a pilot city for the policies and regulations to be implemented in the future of the founding of the country. In the future, they will also try out many policies here, involving finance, justice, real estate, education, commerce and many other fields, so Manila, including Luzon, will be a pilot area for the company to formulate various policies and regulations after the founding of the country in the future.
By this time it was already dark. Lucien and his men got off in a public carriage in Manila's recreation area and strolled through the bustling streets.
The main streets of the recreation area are fully enclosed pedestrian streets, and the streets are lined with mesmerizing neon lights that have just been lit up.
For the luminous luminaries that can be seen everywhere in Manila, Lucien and others were shocked at the same time. It is also full of doubts. This kind of lighting made them get together and study for a long time, but they still couldn't get the answer.
In fact, when merchants from all over the world arrive in Manila, they will find that at night, the glass lampshades on the pillars on both sides of the streets of Manila will automatically light up, and even in the rooms of hotels and hotels, they will light up the rooms with a light touch.
Many businessmen were overjoyed when they saw the electric lights in the Far East. They thought that this was definitely a big business opportunity, but when they went to the trade hall to inquire, they were dismayed to find that these glowing glass covers were not within the scope of goods sold in the Far East.
The mayor of Manila, Xiao Hanguang, could only shake his head and smile bitterly, which really couldn't be explained to them. Can you tell them the basics of electricity, from the basic knowledge of electricity, the source of electricity, current, resistance, capacitance and electromagnetic phenomena? Explain it to them in detail, even then they may not understand. So it's a bit mysterious. Then silently pretend.
The leisure and entertainment area is full of various restaurants and streets, where you can eat the cuisine of all parts of the Ming Dynasty, as well as Japanese, Persian, Korean, Vietnamese and other oriental flavors. Of course, there are also restaurants with flavors from all over Europe. Anyway, businessmen from all over the world can definitely find a place here that suits their tastes.
There are all kinds of catering establishments such as flavor snack streets, restaurant streets, high-end hotels, and luxury clubs, which can meet the needs of consumers of different levels. And the standard of hygiene here is quite high, both from the
Manila Health Department. The hygiene of the leisure and entertainment area is very strict, even in the flavor snack street, it is clean and tidy, and each food street vendor pushes a uniform trolley and arranges neatly on both sides of the street. All stall owners did not dare to relax hygiene requirements.
If there is a hygiene problem caused by the business, or if the garbage is dumped indiscriminately, they will be fined like bankruptcy. And they will be blacklisted by the city government, and their credit rating will be lowered, and in the future, things like loans, insurance, employment, etc., will all be affected by this.
After eating, you can also have a good time at the entertainment venues here. The leisure and entertainment area has a large number of casinos, leisure baths, Fengyue Street and other entertainment venues.
You can enjoy a variety of baths, such as Finnish baths and Turkish baths, or soak in a comfortable hot bath before receiving massages, massages, foot pinching, cupping and other services.
Here are the most professional technicians, not only excellent skills, but also will never appear when a girl takes advantage of your feet to pinch your feet, stretching her little feet under you to tease your birds.
There are also women who are willing to go to the leisure and entertainment area, they can go to Manila's beauty salon street, various beauty salons, hair salons, fitness and weight loss salons, makeup and nail salons, etc., are their best leisure places.
In addition, the beautiful Starbucks Cafe, the quiet and elegant tea house, and the chic bar are all good places for women and girlfriends to gather. There are also theaters, concert halls, folk music halls and other places where women are happy to have fun.
People who are good gamblers can go to various types of gambling games, Manila's gambling casinos, all of which are government capital, large and small, there are more than a dozen, and the facilities inside are good even in modern society, in this era it is simply a gambler's paradise, an absolute gold cave.
The management of major gambling & casinos is advanced, and the ways of betting are even more diverse and colorful. Let every businessman and tourist who comes here linger, many Ming and Southeast Asian tyrants have deliberately come to Manila with huge sums of money to gamble. Every year, Bo&Cai alone can create an amazing profit for Manila.
Fengyue Street is a major feature of Manila, with girls from Japan, indigenous women from Southeast Asia, Persian beauties, European Yanmar, and even black girls. However, Chinese women are only forbidden to engage in sexual occupation.
There are also special shops that can satisfy all kinds of bad tastes of perverted customers, and the patterns in it are really colorful, as long as you have money, I am your person tonight! If it's a local tyrant, don't treat me as a human being tonight!
Manila's Windy Moon Street developed relatively late. Although the scale is not as good as the castle town of Tanegashima Akaogi Port, the grade and style of this place have surpassed it in an all-round way. It was a place for businessmen and nobles, and Tanegashima was a paradise for soldiers.
Lucien and his family chose a smaller-looking French restaurant, and to their surprise, the cuisine was not only authentic, but also served several dishes that they had never eaten before. Good value for money though. But it's too expensive, and the prices in Manila are already too much for them to complain about.
Manila is a rich man's world, where as long as you have money, Manila can not only meet your needs, but also let you get the enjoyment of the emperor, if you don't have money, you can only complain uselessly.
They are also a large leather merchant, and in the eyes of many, they are a symbol of wealth. But when they arrived in Manila, they learned what it meant to be rich. Many Ming tyrants are as heroic as they spend money, Persian chieftains show off their wealth, and even the leader of a turtle tribe in Southeast Asia can spend a lot of money. And they could only stand to the side in disappointment, watching others pretend to be richer.
Although they were depressed, when they thought of the high-end luxury goods in the exhibition area of the trade and trading hall, their hearts suddenly became hot again. All vowed to seize this opportunity and strive to have their own sailboat in a few years.
At this time, they all remembered the Chinese tour guide during the day, and the real estate leaflet was still in their arms. They all now feel like buying a property here. Definitely an investment to consider. According to the current development of Manila, it will definitely become a famous city in the East in the future. There may never be such an opportunity again.
They walked out of the French restaurant and walked around in this brightly lit leisure and entertainment area. They went to the most ordinary bathing center to soak in a large pool, where bathing, scrubbing, pinching feet and beating the back are all one-stop services, and the price is very affordable.
Compared with those high-end bathing centers, it is only inferior in decoration and facilities. There is also the fact that the technicians in those high-end places are all beautiful women, and the technicians here are elderly aunts. They feel very comfortable after doing a set of services, and the aunt's calloused hands are not bad at all.
Out of the bathing center, they slipped away to Fengyue Street refreshed. It's a relatively remote location, but it's also the most crowded of the other side. Even the atmosphere has changed, and even the neon boxes on the plaques of the shops on both sides of the street have changed color, making it look very confusing.
In front of each Fengyue establishment, there are several scantily clad women, settling passers-by in various poses. There was also extremely violent music playing in the stereo at the door, which made the whole street smell of obscenity.
Those women have flirtatious eyes, unbridled to everyone who passes by, and occasionally stick out their sultry little tongues, which makes people want to stop. Lucien and the others had just walked here for a while, and then they couldn't take it anymore and turned and walked out of the street.
These girls are so seductive, but they're shy, and while the service here is definitely worth the trip, it's said to be sky-high.
Endure the excitement of a certain part of the lower body, hurriedly walk out, and solve it with your hands at night.
Suddenly, a young Chinese man next to him leaned up to them casually and whispered to them in proficient French, "Do you want to have fun?" The price is cheap, and you are satisfied. If you want to play, follow me......"
With that, the young Chinese man walked forward, came to the intersection of an alley, looked back at them, and then turned and walked into the alley. Lucien glanced at each other, and a French merchant smiled and said, "Are you going?" I can't take it anymore anyway, hehe...... I went to ......"
He walked into the alley and disappeared. Lucien and the others glanced at each other, and two more couldn't help but be tempted to follow, which made Lucien's heart even more piercing, he struggled for a while, but still couldn't withstand the temptation, and also stepped into the alley.
