Dong Qiangqiang stood alone outside the hotel. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the night's experience was stuck in his throat, and he couldn't vomit it out. He simply stood by his car and called Lao Bai.
The ringing sounded for dozens of seconds, and just when Dong Qiangqiang was about to hang up and redial, Lao Bai picked up the phone. Before Dong Qiangqiang could speak, Hualin's fast-talking complaints came from the phone.
Dong Qiangqiang didn't expect it when he happened to encounter Lao Bai and his wife arguing. Although Lao Bai couldn't see the embarrassment on his face through the phone, it was strange to hold the phone and not speak. He hurriedly found a step for himself: "What? , I’m fine, I’ll call you later.”
"I'm already out." It sounded like Lao Bai was lighting a cigarette, "Tell me, what happened?"
Dong Qiangqiang is already used to Lao Bai's predictions: "I just met a lot of German policemen in a Chinese restaurant and I couldn't finish the meal."
"Well, other buddies also called me just now and said that many Chinese restaurants were inspected tonight. It doesn't seem to be a coincidence." Lao Bai breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems that there was an inspection a few months ago. I didn't expect it to be like this. Check again quickly, maybe it’s related to the terrorist attacks a few days ago.”
"I didn't expect you to be so well-informed." Dong Qiangqiang said with emotion, "I just met the German police who deliberately made things difficult for our chef."
"People eat all kinds of grains, and there must be all kinds of people." Lao Bai solemnly reminded Dong Qiangqiang, "Wherever there are people, there will be left, middle, right, good, middle and poor. Every country has modest gentlemen and black sheep."
"In addition, I met a new classmate. She said that some Chinese restaurants here have been reported to use illegal workers, so the Germans will make such a big splash and spend a lot of time." Dong Qiangqiang said, "You have heard this statement without?"
"I heard from my seniors before that there were similar large-scale raids in Germany in the 1990s, because at that time there were many people stranded in Germany while traveling abroad, and some people without any survival skills could only go into restaurants and shop. Washing the dishes and cooking a few dishes, but I haven’t heard much about this kind of thing in the past few years." Lao Bai said, changing the subject, "How was your tip today?"
Dong Qiangqiang felt that Lao Bai was like a roundworm in his belly, he could guess everything, and he said frankly: "Not a cent is gained."
"Are you sorry for being thin-skinned?" Lao Bai joked, "Do you think collecting tips is like begging for food?"
"Don't mention it. The first time I talked about tipping, the person in charge originally agreed, but it happened that the Germans were inspecting the restaurant. As a result, the Germans ignored the tip and said that my service was not good enough and I did not guarantee them. Eating on time and so on. I was also very hungry at the time, so I got angry and said I didn’t want the tip today, so I ended up working as a volunteer today..."
"I see you have quite a few methods when it comes to dealing with wild boars," Lao Bai laughed angrily at Dong Qiangqiang's narration, "Why do you throw away your armor as soon as you get down to business?"
"You must have encountered this kind of thing, right?" Dong Qiangqiang said and suddenly thought that Lao Bai seemed to have never told him any tips on collecting tips before. Now it seems that he definitely left it out on purpose. His eyes suddenly lit up, "You knew that something like this would happen to me, right?"
Lao Bai heheyile: "Answer me another thing first. Have you seen the template of the travel contract these people signed with the travel agency?"
"I haven't seen it yet, so Du Lan called me and asked me to help her take a tour group for a few days."
"It's no wonder. You haven't read the travel contract, so you think that tipping is voluntary, but it's not. When traveling in Germany or other European countries, tips for tour guides and drivers are usually written in the travel contract. Some travel agencies will even stipulate the minimum amount of tips each person must give per day. Because it is not customary to tip tour guides when traveling in China, domestic consumers traveling to Europe must be informed in contracts." Lao Bai cleared his throat, "Although You don’t have a German tour guide certificate, but you are actually working as a tour guide in Germany. If you meet the Iron Rooster Tour Group and don’t give a penny of tips during the entire trip, or the other party makes excuses and refuses to tip, then you can give it to them on the last day of the tour Tell them that the German Tourism Union has express provisions to protect the personal interests of tour guides and drivers, and there are other ways to deal with those who refuse to pay tips. You don’t have to tell them how to deal with them, because the other party will definitely not dare to take risks if they are confused. Of course, the above are still just documents. Yes, if you come to Wu, you can probably collect it faster." Lao Bai deliberately let it go.
"You're asking for tips but you're also asking for money?" Dong Qiangqiang was surprised to hear that, "You're not going to ask me to hit someone, right?"
"Of course you can't hit people, what are you thinking?" Lao Bai said angrily, "You can collect them before departure every morning, because this is when everyone has just eaten and is in the happiest mood. Or when you go somewhere When refueling at a gas station, tips are collected just because of the gas fee. Another situation is that many guests do not speak English or German well. If the guests are stingy, then you don’t have to help them check into the hotel. , instead of helping them find restaurants, they only take them to visit scenic spots and shopping areas. However, this method is a double-edged sword. It hurts the enemy by a thousand and hurts you by eight hundred. Even if they pay you a tip later, they will definitely not do it next time they go abroad. I will choose you as a tour guide again. So don’t use this trick unless you have to. In addition, do you still remember how Zhou Zhihai deceived the tourists in the shopping village in Munich last time? He quoted two prices for one package. So deal with those who don’t Tippers can actually use many tricks. Even if they fill out the tax return just a little bit wrong, they can lose dozens or even hundreds of times as much as the tip. There are even more despicable tricks that I won’t teach you, so as not to Misleading people. Of course, I am not saying this to trick you, but to warn you: When you are a tour guide, you must put honesty first, and domestic tourists will also have a process of becoming familiar with and accepting tips. Individual Grandet should also be treated in the same way. Give priority to comprehensive education, and try not to use ultimate moves lightly, especially for some elderly people. If they have a family history of heart disease, high blood pressure, cerebral infarction, etc., your single ultimate move will turn into a triggering skill in an instant, and he might be able to use it instantly. Gameover, in the end you lose more than you gain."
When Lao Bai said something, Dong Qiangqiang suddenly became enlightened and nodded repeatedly. In fact, there are some tricks that he may not have thought of, but he is not sure whether he should use them or not.
"Back to the topic, have you thought about the question I asked you just now?" Lao Bai said quietly.
"Think about it." Dong Qiangqiang sighed, "If you don't give it, I won't give it. I'll admit it's bad luck."
"What are you talking about? I asked you before if you had made arrangements for o and the red light district? You just mentioned a few attractions and outlets, but that is definitely not enough. I advise you to make arrangements early to avoid being caught off guard. Many people go abroad for the first time. Travelers love to go to these two places to gain knowledge.”
Dong Qiangqiang didn't mean to pretend to be a white rabbit with Lao Bai, but he had never set foot in the two places Lao Bai mentioned and really didn't know how to choose. Moreover, Du Lan didn't make any demands on him and only told him a few things. A must-visit restaurant and duty-free shop.
"Hey, I really have no idea about the two places you mentioned. How about you recommend a few that you often go to?" Dong Qiangqiang was teasing Lao Bai when he felt someone suddenly flash in the rearview mirror of the car at hand.
He turned around subconsciously, but there was no one behind him. While saying goodbye to Lao Bai quickly, he asked in German: "Who is there?"
But after asking twice, no one answered.
Dong Qiangqiang carefully knelt down and saw the two people's feet through the gap under the car.
Seeing that there were only two people on the other side, he immediately had an idea in his mind. He held his hand on the car and walked slowly towards the back of the car.
When he suddenly dodged out of the rear of the car, the seat where someone had just been was empty.
Dong Qiangqiang was stunned when he heard footsteps coming from his left side.
When he turned around, he saw two people wearing peaked caps and sunglasses standing at the front of the car looking in his direction.
Looking at their clothes, Dong Qiangqiang looked more and more familiar. He suddenly remembered that these two people seemed to be members of the tour group he took at night: Niu Tongsheng and Mei Yifei. But what would they do if they didn't stay in the hotel and hang out?
"Why did you two come out?" Dong Qiangqiang switched back to Chinese mode, "Don't you live on the fifth floor?"
The two looked around furtively, then walked up to Dong Qiangqiang in small steps, and thrust a brand new 5-mark banknote into his hand. "Brother, this is our tip today, please keep it."
Dong Qiangqiang was stunned: What's going on?
