Time passed quickly, and Christmas Eve finally arrived.
As a country in the southern hemisphere, New Zealand is also quite funny. Christmas is an important festival that exists in the cold winter. The lonely wind blows the snow and everything dies. Let's have a good time during the festival.
But in the southern hemisphere, the end of December is the scorching summer time. Not to mention the snow, the sweat on the body of the sun will immediately fall to the Milky Way for nine days, so there is no Christmas atmosphere at all!
Fortunately, he was accompanied by Charlie and Bowen, so three people plus a dog and a bird would be interesting. If he was alone, it would be a lonely shadow and the water would be clear and shallow—a pool of stagnant water!
On the evening of December 24th, Christmas Eve.
Wang Bo has never participated in Christmas seriously, so he doesn't understand any etiquette, legends and rules. In fact, he doesn't need to understand, because they don't eat in the castle, but fly to the small town and sleep there at night. Wake up to the small town Christmas events.
New Zealanders are different from Chinese people. They are completely hedonistic. This can be seen from the weekly salary system. If it is changed to a monthly salary system, it is estimated that a lot of people in New Zealand will starve to death.
Lao Wang studied since he was a child, and his textbooks say that the Chinese nation is a thrifty and hardworking nation. This is absolutely true. New Zealanders have no habit of saving money, or even spending their salaries. Since they have credit cards, they have all become card slave.
There are quite a few usury companies like Moi Nosebleed International Finance Co., Ltd. in New Zealand. Because of the large market, many people need to have the concept of borrowing for consumption.
The purpose of saying so much is that Christmas in New Zealand is really lively and luxurious, and people are willing to spend. There are lights and festoons everywhere in the small town, and the helicopter overlooks it from the sky. Before the sun sets, the small town has become a sea of lights.
The three days before Christmas is known as the shopping day in New Zealand. These days, every supermarket and shopping mall will carry out vigorous promotions, similar to the advertisements of "jumping off a building for a big sale" and "the factory manager took his sister-in-law to sell cheap goods to pay for wages". through every street.
As soon as the helicopter landed and Wang Bo went out, the heat wave hit his face, and he couldn't help but admire: "This is the first time I've seen such a special Christmas Eve!"
"Merry Christmas, I love you!" Someone yelled at him, and people coming and going had smiles on their faces.
Wang Bo also smiled and waved: "Merry Christmas, comrade, you are a man, I can't love you!"
Although it is just an ordinary helicopter, because Omarama is a small town, some people still come up to take pictures. The eyes of the people around make Lao Wang quite proud. He saw someone driving a BMW in his hometown.
A few children ran over, and Wang Bo thought they were also here to take a photo with the helicopter, but they ran over and put some Santa Claus stickers on the helicopter, and then ran away quickly. Another kid came by and pissed in the shadow of the helicopter...
Bowen asked as he walked, "Is the restaurant where we eat booked? Where is it?"
"Ask Charlie, he did it." Wang Bo said.
Charlie shrugged and said, "Do you still need to order restaurants? All restaurants will not be closed tonight."
Bowen shouted: "Are you kidding me? No restaurant reservations are made on Christmas Eve, are you sure we can still find vacant seats if we go at this time?"
Wang Bo patted him on the shoulder and said, "OK, I'm sure you won't be hungry, just follow Charlie."
It was the first time to spend an authentic Christmas Eve, and he looked around curiously. Christmas trees were erected on both sides of the road, with gift boxes hanging on them, and Santa Claus was arranged in some shops.
Old Wang felt hot even in T-shirts. Seeing that these people were still wearing red Christmas clothes, Santa hats, and fake beards, he must have been sweating profusely.
They were walking on the street when a police car drove over. Robert poked his head out and said with a smile, "My lord, happy Christmas Eve. I really envy you that you can celebrate Christmas."
Wang Bo asked, "Are you still on duty?"
"Of course, let me count. I haven't had Christmas dinner with my family in one, two, three, four, five, six or seven years." Robert said complainingly.
This is the duty of the police. All police officers must be on duty on Christmas Eve, but it doesn't matter to Lao Wang, because everyone in his jurisdiction is with him.
Robert said hello and left, and Wang Bo and the others also arrived at the place-Spres's kitchen.
Seeing the restaurant decorated with lights, Lao Wang asked, "Is Kobe very busy today?"
Charlie laughed and said, "No, his restaurant only serves twenty tables of guests every day."
When an attendant came up and asked for their number, Charlie said, "Give me my name, Charlie Stallone, and give us the best spot."
The waiter had obviously been told by Kobe, and he smiled slightly when he heard the name, and took them to the location near the French windows.
The reason why this location is the best is because the wide glass window has special effects, with snowflakes floating on it, and it has a more orthodox Christmas atmosphere.
Seeing this scene, Bo Wen was shocked, and muttered: "Xue Te, you are awesome!"
Charlie proudly said to him: "It's awesome, right? Cowboys aren't that awesome, are they? So please don't brag in front of me in the future."
Bowen laughed and said to Old Wang: "I really want to smash that bitch's face with a cowboy's rifle now. It must be very funny when he sees his nose fly out!"
For some reason, Charlie and Bowen were a little at odds.
Special dishes are required on special days. The main course of the Christmas dinner is always roast turkey, Christmas pudding, and roast ham, and the drink is beer. This tradition comes from the United Kingdom, and the British Christmas is also a celebration of beer.
The chubby Kobe winked when he saw the three of them, and after a while he came over, hugged Wang Bo and said, "Man, how is our Christmas Eve, is it interesting?"
Old Wang nodded and said, "It's great, very lively."
Kobe and Bowen hugged again, nodded after learning that he was the Dallas Cowboy, and said that he would give you a taste of authentic Texas baked ham later.
In the end, he hugged Charlie, and the two friends hugged each other enthusiastically. Kobe said: "Little feet, my good buddy, what is your Christmas wish this year? Get rich? Be lucky? Get promoted? Be famous overnight? Be the son of the world? Even youth Forever?!"
Just as Charlie was about to speak, Kobe quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, no, none of this will come true. I advise you to taste my craft later and then go back and take a shower and go to bed early. Don't think about these useless things."
After hearing this, Bowen laughed loudly, then whistled and clapped vigorously, saying: "Kobe, you are so individual!"
