rebirth from small pockets

Chapter 355 The beer doesn’t taste good?

In his previous life, Chen Li read a news article saying that when a teacher resigned, he wrote a resignation application.

This resignation application only has ten words, and these ten words are

"The world is so big, I want to see it!"

There is a sense of freedom and ease in this sentence, and the teacher who said this sentence indeed lived a quite free and easy life.

In his previous life, Chen Li also visited the inn that this teacher later opened and had a few chats with him.

Many people envy this teacher's chic life, but more people are facing the current situation.

"The wallet is so small, it can't go anywhere!"

They are also ten words. Compared with the free and easy words of the previous ten words, these ten words are full of hardship and helplessness in life!

Many people don't have the financial means, and some people don't have the time.

Because for most people, economic conditions are actually based on time.

These friends gave up a lot of personal time in exchange for better economic and material conditions.

In short, just busy!

And there are only a few, or even very few, people who can be as free and easy as that teacher.

For most people, the world is so big and everyone wants to see it.

But the reality is that you still have to live, you have parents, you still have a family, you still have to get married and have children. The world is indeed big, but the wind and rain are not small!

If you don't have a home that can protect you from the wind and rain, no matter where you go or what you see, you will be like a duckweed in this world.

But having a family means having constraints, and it is difficult to make an appropriate adjustment between the two.

Unless you can meet a like-minded partner, the fit between ideals and reality will become higher.

But there are so many different things in life, how can you guarantee that you will meet the one that suits you?

After all, marriage and family are not child's play, let alone playing house and games. They can be reopened at any time even if it is inappropriate.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the teacher in the previous life became popular because she did something that everyone wanted to do but couldn't or even didn't dare to do.

In his previous life, Chen Li actually envied this teacher, but while he was envious, he himself could not be as brave as this teacher.

At that time, Li Chen's income was actually not low. Even in Chengdu, a new first-tier city, Chen Li could live quite comfortably with his income.

In fact, if we really talk about it, Chen Li's financial conditions are enough to support him to see the world.

But in fact, Chen Li didn't dare to just throw down a resignation application and embrace the big world like that teacher did.

Chen Li’s monthly mortgage, car loan and various living expenses are not low. Although he has some savings, Chen Li was not married yet!

It's hard to say that he has such a small amount of savings. It's probably not easy to find a wife. How can he be qualified to see this big world?

At that time, Chen Li was still like this~ let alone those whose income was not as good as Chen Li.

And this~ actually sums up the vast majority of people!

But ~ this is a previous life!

Now Chen Li is naturally qualified, capable and even able to take the initiative to embrace this big world!

As long as Chen Lili, with his current wealth and even time autonomy, Chen Li can travel to any corner of the world.

Didn't Professor Lu suggest that Chen Li go to Germany to study? Chen Li could actually go to any country, let alone Germany, the United States, France, or England.

Perhaps for most people in 1999, going abroad is not that easy.

But if it’s Chen Li, it’s easier, because Chen Li is rich!

Not only is he rich, he can even speak multiple languages.

With the system plug-in, Chen Li can even learn a language in the system space, and then travel around the country with the corresponding language environment.

Just like English, it may be said to be the language of England, but in fact there are many countries around the world that use English.

In the same way, if you learn a foreign language such as Spanish, French, Portuguese, etc., you can travel to multiple countries.

So if Chen Li really wants to go, he can really take a tour of this big earth.

But in fact, Chen Li didn't want to wander outside.

As a reborn person, Chen Li understands many things that ordinary people these days do not understand.

It’s not that the air in foreign countries is sweeter, nor that the moon in foreign countries is particularly round!

If you want to travel around, one Huaxia is actually enough!

China is a vast country with nearly 10 million square kilometers. Chen Li can be considered quite good if he can travel around his own country.

Moreover, he is actually not that keen on traveling. Thinking about it and doing it are actually two different things.

He envied the teacher who could say freely and freely, "The world is so big, I want to see it"!

But if you really ask him to do it, even if he has enough financial strength and enough free time, he may not actually do it.

Traveling can indeed make people feel the beauty of life, but traveling is definitely not a necessity in life.

Many times, Chen Li would rather stay at home, play games with the air conditioner blowing, watch soap operas on TV, eat when he is hungry, and sleep when he is sleepy. He feels that such a life is actually very beautiful!

Therefore, when Chen Li saw the new tasks released by the system, Chen Li's first reaction was that something was wrong with the system again.

Because if you simply look at this mission, you might think that this mission should let Chen Li go on a trip and see the world.

But in fact, if you combine Professor Lu’s previous proposal for him to study abroad and the group of Germans he has come into contact with now.

Chen Li has reason to believe that if he really follows the mission description and simply goes out for a trip, he will definitely not be able to complete the mission.

After all, Chen Li has owned the system for seven years. During these seven years, he has already understood the virtues of the system.

Therefore, this task is definitely not as simple as whether to travel or not.

Because~the reward for this mission is an advanced skill book!

This is the first time Chen Li has seen an advanced skill book!

Because Chen Li has never completed the system promotion task, Chen Li has not obtained this thing so far.

I have to say ~ this reward is very tempting!

But just like good-looking mushrooms are often poisonous, and beautiful women often have owners, it is absolutely impossible for Chen Li to get such an attractive reward easily by going on a trip or something.

So, the system actually wants me to study abroad?

That's impossible!

Chen Li's plan for himself did not include studying abroad.

Even if he wasn't afraid of being beaten to death by his parents if he dropped out of college, Chen Li probably wouldn't even be able to complete his bachelor's degree.

Chen Li was very confused about this task, so he always wanted to ask Xiaomeng in the system space.

The previous system might not explain it to him, but now Xiaomeng might give him some hints.

But there is Lucas beside Chen Li. This guy keeps nagging at Chen Li's side. Chen Li can't even spare time to go to the system space.

Originally, after arriving at the hotel, this guy was supposed to rest.

As a result, this guy didn't let Chen Li go even during his rest time. He even wanted Chen Li to take him out to visit Yanjing City.

This is noon in the middle of May~ The sun in the sky is very fierce.

Chen Li is in a suit and tie. Are you asking him to take Lucas out for a walk at this time? Unless there is something wrong with his brain!

"Chen~What is this? It's sour and sweet~it tastes good!"

“This is sour plum juice, it’s great to drink in summer!”

On the street of Houhai~ Chen Li pulled off his tie and put it in his pocket. He had already finished the glass of iced plum juice he just bought in his hand.

"Chen~ What is this? Is it delicious?"

"Why don't we give it a try? I'm not used to eating Chinese food and I wasn't full at lunch!"

"That's it. I don't know what kind of meat skewers it is. Anyway, it's either pork or mutton."

Chen Li looked at the meat skewers in this store and said they were mutton skewers, but Chen Li felt that they were not mutton!

Some people may think that mutton is hard to recognize? You can smell the filthy smell.

But in fact, after the meat skewers sold in some stores have been repeatedly fried and covered with seasonings, you will definitely not be able to tell what kind of meat it is.

It is said to be mutton skewers, but in fact, you can get the corresponding taste with pork.

Even not just pork, horse meat and even mouse meat can give you a beef flavor.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, Chen Li rarely buys barbecue skewers from roadside stalls outside. Even if he eats barbecue, he always goes to a relatively regular shop. Although this does not guarantee that he will not fall into a pit, the danger is definitely there.

Be smaller.

But Lucas obviously didn't know this, and it was impossible for Chen Li to tell him this, so Lucas took out the money, and then.

"Pfft~ Boss, didn't you see me standing next to you?"

Chen Li was made to laugh by the stall owner. The kebabs cost one dollar each, but the boss dared to speak!

Well~ Actually in the early days, one thing that was popular in many places in China was cheating foreigners.

For example, if you sell something for one yuan, you will sell it for ten yuan; if you sell something for ten yuan, you will sell it for one hundred yuan!

Many people are even keen to use this kind of thing as a talking point to show off ~ it feels like they are pretty awesome when they say it.

Especially when some second-rate dealers like Panjiayuan sell some fake antiques to foreigners as genuine goods, this kind of thing sounds quite exciting.

It's just that if those guys don't deceive our own people, then it's actually pretty good.

But in fact, no matter whether those guys are foreigners or not, they are still cheating.

Maybe he doesn’t fool as many foreigners as he does Chinese people!

So there’s really nothing to say about this kind of thing!

Especially when selling small meat skewers like this, you charge people one dollar per skewer. This is not actually cheating people, it is treating them as fools!

However, Chen Li did not expose the stall owner directly. He just stopped Lucas from paying the bill and paid the bill himself.

"Looking for your money~!"

The boss really didn't notice that Chen Li was working with Lucas at first, so he felt a little embarrassed and got the change back.

"Just keep it~!"

"One dollar is indeed too expensive. You are treating people like fools!"

"But, doubling it is no problem."

Chen Li winked at the boss, who chuckled and took the money back.

The money was paid by Chen Li, but it was not paid by him.

Because he was taking Lucas out for a stroll, the expense had to be calculated on the rich second generation.

"Lucas~ We don't accept US dollars or marks here, only Chinese coins!"

Chen Li skillfully took a 20-dollar bill from Lucas, then after thinking about it, he took out some change from his wallet and handed it over.

It's okay for the stall owner to make some extra money, he doesn't have to take any money.

Okay~ Actually, Chen Li wanted to trick this guy at first, but after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

"Hmm~ We came out in a bit of a hurry, I forgot to change."

"Thank you, Chen!"

"Hiss~ this smell!"

Obviously, Lucas is not very used to this kind of kebab, especially the spicy smell, which makes Lucas very uncomfortable.

"Uh~!"

Chen Li was a little speechless, because this seemed to be his pot. When he ordered the meat skewers just now, he habitually asked the boss to make it extra spicy according to his own taste!

"Hmm~ Eat this meat skewers and pair it with this iced sour plum soup. It's a perfect match~ Try it!"

Chen Li quickly asked Lucas to take a sip of sour plum soup. Don’t tell me, these two foods really go well together.

The sour plum soup neutralized some of the spiciness, but the irritation brought by the spiciness still lingered in the mouth.

"Hey~um~it's really good!"

"Chen~ you are right, this and this~ really match!"

"However, I still think this should be paired with beer!"

"Chen~ you drink beer, right? When you have a chance to go to Munich, I will take you to taste our most authentic local beer."

“The beer you have here doesn’t taste good!”

During the previous lunch meal, Lucas drank a bottle of Chinese-made Cowardly Drinks.

But Lucas seemed a little disappointed.

But this is actually normal, because the beer that Germans drink is actually two different things from the beer produced in China.

Especially for this cowardly drink, Chinese people actually regard it more as an alcoholic beverage than a real wine.

So~ let alone the German guy who drinks well.

Even though Lucas is still a young man, this guy is already considered a good drinker, so he was a little dissatisfied with the bottle of cowardice at noon!

But Lucas was dissatisfied, so Chen Li was a little unhappy!

Yes~ He admitted that domestic beer may not be as good as German beer, but you can feel that way, but you can't say that.

Since you said it~then be prepared for me to be unhappy, and if I am unhappy~then I will attack you. So.

"Really? Then I'll take you to try some really delicious beer when you get the chance!"

"But~ I'm afraid you'll get drunk after just a few drinks!"

"Impossible~Absolutely impossible!"

"Chen~ you seem to have forgotten~ I am a German, a German who can't get drunk!"

When it comes to drinking, almost everyone who likes to drink is not willing to admit that he or she gets drunk easily.

Especially the Germans!

"Haha~ Really? That's okay~ I'll take you to taste it later!"

Chen Li didn't say much~ He found a bench on the roadside and sat down, then entered the system space.

"Xiaomeng~ Please help me find it~ I remember seeing a method of brewing beer before. Where is it?"

"That's the one with an alcohol concentration of 23!"
