The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

Chapter 344: Life is not easy

Zhang Nan is really worried about India's sanitation, although he heard that the water in star-rated hotels in Indian cities is drinkable before he reborn. Just boil. ???

But my impression of all the things that can be imported in India is really bad. I decided not to drink the water from the tap, even if it was boiled, except for bathing, washing my face and brushing my teeth.

Besides, I don’t have too much confidence in my stomach and intestines. I have heard that some people have diarrhea from tap water in India. It is not because the bacteria in the water have not been eliminated, but because the water is over-disinfected and improperly treated, and all kinds of residual water are left in the water. Chemical substances have brought people down!

I washed my face. Like all five-star hotels, there is hot water here.

After washing, Zhang Nan decided not to drink the tap water in India. The smell of bleach and chlorine was several times stronger than the smell of bleach and chlorine in the tap water in Shanghai!

Out of the bathroom, I asked Nicole, who was reading an English movie magazine provided by the hotel, "Have a cold?"

Nicole looked up and said with a confused look: "No, what's the matter?"

"The tap water bleach smells so bad that I didn't hear your complaints just now, I thought you had a stuffy nose."

"I wash it with bottled water."

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked down at her magazine.

Well, the whole Mrs. Kuo from the United States.

Don't complain, it's all scared by your own men.

When I went to Shanghai a year later, Nicole complained about the smell of the tap water in Shanghai, and also joked that after taking a bath, it was the same as getting rid of the poison.

Don’t blame Nicole for being squeamish. Before the 1990s, Zhang Nan would complain about the tap water in Shanghai every time he went to Shanghai. By the way, he complained about the people in Shanghai. In the 1980s, the water source of the tap water in Shanghai was basically from the Huangpu River, and only large doses could be used. Chemical disinfection.

In the past two years, even if he used it to make tea, Zhang Nan would still feel that the tap water in Shanghai has a taste-since the century, the tap water in Shanghai has been much better, at least the obvious smell of bleaching powder is gone.

And the taste of the tap water in the Taj Mahal Hotel... is eight streets worse than the tap water in Shanghai in the 1980s!

"After taking a shower, I guess the whole person smells like bleach!"

After thinking about it, I picked up the phone in the living room and called the reception desk: "...Yes, the presidential suite, send me 5o liters of mineral water... Okay, it’s in a big bottle. Of this brand."

Jenny heard the conversation between the two and went to freshen up. After a try, she completely agreed with her man's behavior: planning to rinse with bottled water after taking a shower.

As for those bed sheets, I don’t have to pay much attention to it: I need to put detergent in my own washing.

Just now Jenny discovered that the bath products and toothpaste in the bathroom were all British products. She knew these brands: she wanted to bring them by herself before she came. Zhang Nan told her women that it’s not necessary. The hotel will definitely provide western imports. goods.

As soon as Jenny talked about her current situation, she praised her man for her good preparations before coming.

"Don't praise me, India seems to have few modern toiletry production factories, and many of the toothpaste, shower gel, and washing water on the market are imported.

A bottle of washing water is $5, and the poor can't afford the whole bottle. Many of them are in small packages on the market. Even toothpaste is available in small packages enough to brush your teeth twice, absolutely 100% of the products in these hotels are imported. "

This is the fact that Zhang Nan "does not take credit". Not to mention that in the 1980s, India will still be like this in the next 20 years: it is difficult to understand that a country that bites its head and wants to build a "world-class aircraft carrier", actually most of the toothpaste and washing water rely on imports!

There are also those made in India. A toothpaste will cost about 50 rupees in 20 years, which is equivalent to 0.55 US dollars-a heavy Indian worker who works at the bottom of society has a monthly salary of about 10 US dollars.

It can't be used at all.

Faced with the doubts raised by two women because they were unbelievable, Zhang Nan said: “The poor can’t afford to use them, so naturally there are alternatives; the rich don’t care and are used to imported goods; those who can’t afford to buy can buy special small packages, and those large packages are produced. Who will sell it?"

Well, this is the reality in India.

......

Zhang Nan went to the kitchen to look at Daniel, who was scoring left and right. The chef brought ingredients from West Germany. Anyway, when he passed customs, he went through a special passage that would not be inspected. Even Bombay had a lot of refrigerated insurance beef that could be said to be extinct.

Don’t bring it, or just wait to be vegetarian!

Zhang Nan would have to close the door to eat, or she would definitely become an unwelcome figure in the entire city.

Sacred cow!

Daniel, who was arranging dishes in advance, saw the boss come in, and quickly said: "Boss, I prepared braised beef, stir-fried broccoli, and eggplant. The deep-sea prawns provided in the kitchen are quite fresh, and they are also braised in soy sauce.

You eat rice, Jenny and Miss Nicole want to eat steak, I prepared black pepper sauce, half-ripe ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and some freshly baked English bread in the hotel, what else do you need? "

Zhang Nan thought, "I'll have another bowl of shredded pork and egg drop soup, Daniel, we people in Huaxia usually like to have some soup at the end of our meal. Unfortunately, there is no mustard, otherwise it would be better to put a little bit of mustard."

Mustard mustard, Daniel has never seen it before, "It's probably a magical ingredient!"

"By the way, cut me some salted radishes, pour some sesame oil, and don't put sugar."

Daniel pointed his head: "No problem, boss."

The brother-in-law still pickled a whole bucket of salted radishes in the manor. Although the craftsmanship is not as good as pickled vegetables, it is better than nothing.

As for pickles, don't think about it: unless you bring seeds from your hometown and grow them yourself on the manor, you will not be able to buy the potherb mustard you need in the United States!

Leaving the kitchen and passing by the restaurant, Zhang Nan felt that he was a bit "heinous" in India: a meal of pork and beef is all over, and everything is offended!

Many Indians who believe in Hinduism are vegetarians. Even if they are not vegetarians, they will order chicken and goat meat. They eat very little. They are not easy to find if they want to buy meat, let alone hygiene.

Fish are eaten in some places, but there are also many places where you are determined not to eat fish. The reason is clear when you think about the Ganges.

Fortunately, Mumbai is close to the sea. Although the coastal waters are heavily polluted, you can still get some seafood caught in the distant sea: people here still eat seafood, but the cooking method is similar to that of British deep-fried fish. A bunch of spice that I don't understand.

There is also the use of "Indian stew" to make fish, which is terrible at the first thought.

Lamb Zhang Nan only eats white cuts. Unfortunately, his favorite lamb flavor Andy Lu hasn’t taught Daniel yet. Besides the issue of slaughter, there is little hope for lamb in India.

Fortunately, there are marine fish and chicken, otherwise Zhang Nan doesn't know what else to eat.

It is not easy for Chinese people to live in India. 8
