Vol 5 Chapter 731: Dance

Standing on the square of the Taj Mahal Hotel by the sea, Feng Yiping looked at this reputed "Best Hotel in India that symbolizes India's self-esteem and wealth", and nodded unceasingly.

In India, the word Taj is easy to think of the Taj Mahal, but the Taj Mahal and the Taj Mahal are actually not related. It is Arabic, meaning "place where the crown is placed."

He had also seen this hotel on the news, and forgot exactly which year, but he remembered exactly that it suffered a terrorist attack.

In other words, the first reaction he saw when he saw this incident was as if the three views were not correct. People living in the Taj Mahal Hotel were either rich or expensive. He felt that attacking such a place is better than attacking a vegetable market. The place is better.

The flow of people in those places is greater, and the people are already very hard, why bother with them?

Unexpectedly, he became a VIP here now.

By the end of last year, the hotel had been in use for a whole century, and it lasted for a hundred years. It did not reduce its brilliance. The original magnificence, after the precipitation and carving of time, became more elegant and noble.

And this location is also a good one, just by the sea, not far from the side, is the famous India Gate.

That is another building in this world that resembles the Arc de Triomphe in Paris.

This is an arch that combines Indian and Persian cultural architectural features. It is 26 meters high. It can also be said to be an achievement project.

As a rule, the British royal family will regularly visit the colony. In 1911, in order to cooperate with the visiting King George V-that is, the grandfather who seems to be going to die of his son Elizabeth II, and Queen Mary, the colonial government specially built this This building allows George V to pass through the gate to show that Mumbai is the gateway to India.

Since then, this is the designated place for the Mumbai City Government to welcome the heads of state. As a result, it has naturally become a place for many distinguished guests.

It can be said that the establishment of the high-end brand of Taj Mahal Hotel is not unrelated to the successful positioning of this first hotel.

Such a luxurious hotel, such a solemn India Gate, logically, the surrounding area should be very clean and tidy, but the Indians are not like this. Next to India Gate is the busy Apollo Wharf. At this time, the boats are passing by and there is a lot of people.

It's very lifelike.

Next to India Gate, and on the square of the Taj Mahal Hotel, there are many young people sitting very relaxed under the trees, on the flower beds, and on the ground, looking at the surrounding hustle and bustle leisurely.

Such a scenario is definitely not seen in a city with fast economic development in China. How can young people be so leisurely?

But India is like this. You are in its well-known commercial city, but you don't really feel the rush of the well-known commercial city.

From these young people, it seems that the founder of the Tata Group, Jamsheetji Tata, can't see that momentum.

In other words, he was already a successful businessman and planned to go to a high-end hotel and coffee with his friends, but because he was an Indian, he was driven out of that hotel.

This matter is somewhat similar to the Fuxing Park where Feng Yiping took Jin Ling and the others for a while. Its predecessor, when the Gujiazhai Park was just opened, legal rent defined the discriminatory and insulting "Chinese and dogs are not allowed inside". Terms.

But unlike the various protest methods adopted by all walks of life in the domestic society, Jamsetji Tata is more rigid. If you don't accept me, then I will build my own-so there is this luxurious hotel in front of me.

For this reason, this seaside hotel has a unique design. Its back faces the sea, while the main entrance faces the city. Many people joked that this hotel did not welcome British people from the sea.

This is not the case. It is designed this way so that all rooms in the hotel can see the sea.

"We know that Mr. Feng also owns a five-star hotel, and we also hope to cooperate with Mr. Feng in the high-end hotel field," said Xiao En as he walked towards the front door.

"I really hope to learn from the successful experience of the Taj Mahal Hotel in this area," Feng Yiping said.

But in fact, in the field of high-end hotels, he has no willingness to cooperate with others. In fact, the Taj Mahal Hotel is the same. Unlike other joint venture companies under the Tata Group, it is entirely owned by Jamsetji Ta. Tower personally funded and established.

The establishment of the Taj Mahal luxury brand is actually difficult to replicate. As a member of the wealthy bourgeoisie in India, the Tata Group has successfully persuaded the government to transform a number of formerly luxurious and exquisite palaces into Taj Mahal hotels.

Feng Yiping thought about such things, such as Prince Gong’s Mansion, Mountain Resort, etc. However, can the domestic cultural relics department agree?

…………

Not long after leaving Sean and his party, Feng Yiping, who was standing in front of the window, saw that in the afterglow of the setting sun, some hawkers danglingly carried their clothes or pushed the shuttle bus. They never passed by, thinking they were going to the night market. .

And those young people who watch the scenery are still sitting leisurely in their original place, still watching everything around them leisurely. At this time, are they not hungry?

Just thinking of being hungry, there was a movement from the door. Mike walked in with Malika, who had changed another set of sari. "Hello Mr. Feng," wearing a bright red sari with a headdress on his forehead. She said with a smile.

"Hello," Feng Yiping nodded with a smile.

From the perspective of women’s clothing, India is also a very contradictory nation. For example, the sari currently worn by Marika looks more seductive than Western evening dresses.

The black bodice is very low, and it looks white, the petticoat inside is also very low, and a part of the abdomen is exposed...

The feeling is that if you take off the outer piece of cloth that is about 5 to 6 meters long and go to the beach directly with the clothes inside, it will not violate the peace.

"Look at the dinner I prepared for you," Malika beckoned, and suddenly a large group of people pushed in the food delivery truck.

"This is looking for food made by an Indian chef that I think is the best,"

"Oh, this is the thing you contacted on the plane?" Feng Yiping asked.

"Yes, I supervised what they did on the spot, and things like last night will never happen again," she said.

"Let me introduce to you. This is grilled fish in marinade, shami chicken kebabs, sweet and sour green vegetables with sour cream, chicken with dried jam sauce, Suheli Karia..., stewed beans, cumin rice, India Flavor pie..., chickpea pie, herbal tea and South Indian coffee,"

The waiter put one on, and Malika introduced one. There were more than 20 dishes in the front and back. Not only did it smell very fragrant-India was originally the largest producer of spices, and the shape was good, and the colors were well matched.

It's just that while Mike is drooling ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ it's a little regret: there is no beef.

Feng Yiping also regretted that there was no braised pork.

Regarding these two things, the Indian chef said that I am also very helpless!

Hinduism naturally does not eat beef, and Muslims do not eat pork. What do you tell me to do? I can only find chicken and fish.

This time, Feng Yiping finally can easily experience authentic Indian food, let alone, it's really good.

"There are 98% of residents in India have their own religious beliefs, and in India, religion is not only a belief, but also a simple concept, a way of life, and our food and folk customs are greatly influenced by religion," Malika said. Eat, while introducing them to Feng Yiping.

Feng Yiping doesn't know much about religious issues. He just doesn't understand why many religions in Asia have restrictions and requirements on the diet of believers, but Christianity in the West does not?

Such a topic that is easy to cause controversy, he will naturally not say it, food is first, beauty is on the side, he temporarily puts aside everything, and concentrates on enjoying this rare meal.

It's just that Mike, who is next to him, always feels uncomfortable. He always feels that he is superfluous.

After enjoying the chickpea pie, while drinking coffee, he took the phone and returned to his room, saying that he had work to do.

This is not a lie. When the people here in India get off work, the U.S. side is ready to go to work. This is also because there are so many American companies that have their customer service centers in Bangalore. connection.

"Mika, thank you for your painstaking arrangement. You see, Netflix intends to make it by itself... sorry, who are you?"

Malika has untied the piece of cloth wrapped around her body, leaving only a corset on top and a petticoat underneath, "Let me dance for you,"
