Chapter 61: A Pot of Lager Beer

  As I walked out of the restaurant, I took a look and decided to let Baozi take three taxis away. I rode on the motorcycle and shouted: "Come over casually with two people." Jing Ke sat behind me, Xiang Yu sat in the back seat with a thud, and the motorcycle almost flipped over. I hurriedly said: "Yu Ge, you take a taxi."

  Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were both unhappy, Xiang Yu wanted to ride in the motorcycle and feel the wind, while Liu Bang thought Xiang Yu's head was too big and it would be cramped in the car. I had no choice but to say: "Then Zhang Fei, you go and switch with Ying Ge."

  It wasn't until the fat guy sat down that they barely maintained balance, now I understand what a heavyweight figure means. These two people were riding my 1955 motorcycle, and I had to avoid traffic police all the way, so I arrived later than Baozi and them.

  Baozi said: "No private room available." I was about to suggest changing places, but Baozi added, "It's just as well we're sitting in the main hall, there's a street dance performance today."

  "When did you start liking street dance?" I asked in puzzlement.

  "I love watching people spin around with their heads on the ground and also squatting down to dig into their crotch..."

  "Don't be embarrassed, that's called a Thomas full turn."

  After we went in, we found that most of the people who came here today were young people wearing loose clothes and holding helmets, obviously street dance fans. We chose a table with a good view and sat down. Since it was still early, there was only a flashing colorful light on the stage, and the band's position was empty.

  Apart from Jing Ke, Li Shishi and the others had also never been to a place like this before. They couldn't help but look around curiously. A waiter came over to greet us, saw me and was taken aback for a moment, but didn't say anything else. Politely he asked: "What would you gentlemen like to drink?"

  We seven people, basically none of us can't drink, especially Xiang Yu and Jing Ke. With just over ten people like this in a county-level city, we could support an entire winery. Although I'm more than half the boss, it's not time to pay with my face yet. Moreover, precisely because I'm the boss, I'm even less willing to serve good wine. Liu Bang's 1000 yuan can only be used to buy rice and cook meals in a place like this. I asked the waiter: "What do people usually drink nowadays?"

  "I recommend a few ways of drinking for you: whiskey mixed with green tea, Jack mixed with Coke..."

  "I interrupted him: 'No foreign liquor.'"

  ".... Carlsberg? Budweiser? Heineken? Corona?"

  I shook my head with my eyes closed and didn't say a word. The waiter knew I was "very familiar" with their boss, so he continued to patiently suggest: "Or would you like to try Qingdao?"

  I suddenly opened my eyes and asked sharply: "Do you have beer?"

  "Some."

  "How much?"

  "A pot of 25."

  "How big is this pot? Is it as big as this one?" I said, holding up the large aluminum pot we bought in the afternoon and swinging it in front of the waiter.

  The young man stuttered: "Compared to this one... much smaller..."

  At this time, a pair of hands pressed on my shoulders and scolded: "You little devil ran to make trouble here?" I turned back to take a look, but it was Zhu Gui standing behind me with a smile, I pretended to be surprised and said: "Ah, old Zhu, how is it you? Where have you been making a fortune lately?"

  Zhu Gui is what kind of person, listening to me say this, following the trend: "Long time no see, I'm just working here for people, right?" He said, pinching my shoulder hard. Zhu Gui ordered the waiter, "Give him a pot of this."

  I poured out the contents of the teapot and handed it to the waiter, grinning from ear to ear as I instructed him: "Rinse it thoroughly before refilling!" The waiter walked away with a mixture of laughter and tears.

  Zhu Gui glanced at our group, subconsciously raised his hand to make a fist, then thought better of it and waved at Qin Shi Huang and the others, saying: "Everyone have fun, today's all on me - I'll get someone to bring over some royal salute fireworks later." Zhu Gui was also quite tactless, seeing that I wanted to save money for myself, deliberately teasing me. I pushed him away a few steps and said: "You're busy too, hurry off, we're fine with just drinking huangjiu."

  After Zhu left, Baozi said: "This friend of yours is quite interesting, why didn't you introduce us?"

  I saw that Li Shishi didn't seem to have anything out of the ordinary, and I knew they probably hadn't seen each other before. So I said, "He's not a good person, he used to be an anti-government militant in his early years." Baozi was used to my mouth running off and didn't pay attention to me. After a while, the waiter came over with a large jug of beer, swaying back and forth. I quickly took it from him and patted his shoulder, saying "Young man, you should exercise your body!"

  However, the kettle was indeed heavy enough. I struggled to pour wine for them, and someone brought a large fruit platter and a table full of snacks. I asked for a deck of cards, and Baozi calculated everyone's fortune-telling, saying that from the divination diagram, Qin Shi Huang was unlucky in his youth, Liu Bang's wife had bad luck, and it was unclear that Xiang Yu would have a marriage next month. I quickly changed the subject.

  After playing for a while, people started to gather unknowingly. The new arrivals at several tables saw our large "wine jug" and thought it was a new activity launched by the bar, so they asked the waiter.

  At this time, the big top lamp in the bar suddenly turned around, casting thousands of spots, and a sharp whistle came from the speaker. Those kids suddenly stood up, clapping their hands, shouting, screaming, we didn't know what happened, only to ask that this was the signal before the street dance performance started, it seems that the bar is not the first time to do such an activity.

  As expected, 3 boys and 2 girls, a total of 5 young people, quickly walked onto the stage. The two girls wrapped white headscarves around their heads, stood on either side of the stage, and struck a very cool symmetrical pose. The three big boys started to perform street dance moves to the music, starting from slow to fast. The screams of the girls in the audience immediately drowned out the music. At this time, the spotlight also changed from its previous slow rotation to gradually speeding up, finally rolling frantically like a football kicked by an outside foot, making the faces of the people below change rapidly in the light, like ghosts.

  The atmosphere was high, but I had no interest at all. I said listlessly: "Today is a children's special, and who knows when they'll start doing the steel pipe dance." Baozi also said disappointedly: "Those few guys are quite handsome, it's just that their movements are too simple, when will they spin around with their heads?" After a while, those two girls started dancing and I found it somewhat interesting.

  The music became more and more intense, also making my heart throb. The students in the dance hall were twisting along with it. I saw Zhu Gui and Du Xing standing at the back of the crowd, looking up at the stage with their arms around each other's shoulders. I walked over and leaned forward from behind them, saying: "Who organized this?"

  Du Xing saw me open my mouth and loudly asked: "What did you say?"

  "I shouted loudly: 'You can't do it like this! We need to find two women to go up and hug the steel pipe.'"

  "What's wrong now?" Zhu Gui shouted.

  I pointed at the beer all over the world and said: "Students have no money, only drink beer; striptease, drink foreign wine, make money!"

  Zhu Gui understood and smiled: "It's hard to find a woman who is willing to take off her clothes in public!"

  It seems that although they speak modern words, their ideas have not kept up. It's hard to find a three-legged frog, but is it even harder to find a woman who is willing to take off her clothes? Du Xing shouted: "We didn't do this, every month on this day the tavern does this, it was that little Chen girl who decided."

  I secretly smiled: Chen Kejiao has been in the bar business for so many years, yet she's still as naive and stubborn as a college student who just started her own business. It seems that the bar will have to be run according to my plan, with profits of no less than 2 million yuan per month.

  At this time, 5 young men in black clothes suddenly jumped onto the stage from below, and as soon as they went up, they seized half of the stage. Four of them were in charge, and one stood out to point at the three men and two women opposite him. The people below began to shout excitedly, I watched for a while and laughed: "It's lively, someone has come to 'compare dances'." Du Xing said: "Do we care?" I said: "Don't care, it's a good thing."

  That 3 men and 2 women group seems to be much younger than the black-clothed group, not only are their dance skills inferior, they probably have never fought against so many people before, plus with the audience booing, they can only watch helplessly as the others perform. The black-clothed group keeps sending out new members to provoke them, and their dancing is indeed very beautiful, using Baozi's words, "their heads are spinning in circles", Thomas full spin, cloud step, wave...

  The kids under the stage are the fairest judges, they don't care if you've been bullied or not, whoever jumps well gets applause from them. They started booing the male-female pair and the black-shirted group became more arrogant, until one of them gave a "fall down" gesture to the male-female pair.

  I think it's quite interesting, just about to leave, the black-clad group on stage suddenly threw off their black jackets, revealing white vests underneath, each with a letter on it. The five of them standing together spelled out "APPLE". The one with the letter "A" grabbed the microphone from the edge of the stage and loudly asked: "Do you think we danced well?"

  The audience below thundered: "Good!"

  "A continued: 'Want to know where we come from?'"

  "Think!"

  He pointed at the letters on their five jackets and loudly said: "Follow me: A-P-P-L-E! Apple!"

  I also recited it once and felt very familiar. It's not about the English meaning, but this place. Suddenly I remembered: This is the name of a bar!

  He said, "If everyone wants to see us dance again, welcome to our Apple Bar." Then the guy looked around and said, "I think we're not welcome here anymore. Don't worry, we didn't mean to challenge you. If your bar can send someone up to have a dance-off with us, we'd be happy to. If you give us the boot, we'll leave immediately."

  This time Du Xing immediately understood: "Damn it, this is a kick-off!" He asked me, "What are the rules for going up to 'compare martial arts'?"

  I wasn't angry at all, I'd be more than happy if these kids could take away those students who only drink beer and occupy the space. I told Du Xing in a not-so-enthusiastic tone: "There's no particular rule, just jump around to attract people, but don't have physical contact with each other." Du Xing stepped onto the stage.

  That waiter who served us the first time we came here, from the black uniform group, as soon as he signed up, came to ask Zhu and Du for advice. Now seeing Du Xing about to go on stage to dance, he rushed onto the stage, snatched the microphone, and loudly said: "Now welcome our Deputy Manager Mr. Du Xing!"

  I nodded secretly and said to Zhu Gui: "This young man is clever enough, unfortunately I have no say in the matter, otherwise I would recommend him."

  Du Xing walked onto the stage, this time also not caring whether it was suitable or not, and struck a pose with his fists clenched on all sides. His big head and large eyes, combined with his wrinkled face, made him look older than he actually was. He didn't need any makeup to be featured on the cover of "UFO" magazine. The people below snickered quietly.

  The people in black were also puzzled. One of them asked, "Excuse me, do you have anything to say?" Du Xing snorted and said, "Let's fight!"

  He burst out laughing, Du Xing was wearing a shirt and trousers, with shiny leather shoes on his feet. This was probably the first time he had seen someone come up to dance in such attire, but seeing that Du Xing wasn't joking, he said: "There are 5 of us and only 1 of you, this isn't fair. How about this, I'll do a few moves, if you can follow them, then we lose, dare you?"

  The music had stopped and the strobe lights were adjusted to a steady glow, making the entire bar seem very quiet. Du Xing hummed a note: "Please do."

  Please provide the text you want me to translate. The separator line is empty.
