Chapter 770: 770
Thailand’s time zone was about one hour earlier than China’s . Therefore, when Yuan Zhou woke up naturally, he checked the time on reflex .
“Huh? It’s still four in the morning? Well, I’ll sleep a bit more then,” Yuan Zhou placed the phone down and continued sleeping .
But he was jolted awake not long after he lied down again .
“Wait a moment, the time zone here is one hour earlier, right?” Yuan Zhou opened his eyes and got off the bed after he recalled this .
He cleaned himself, dressed up, and left after putting on his running shoes . He was doing the same thing as what he would do when in China .
However, since he was not familiar with this place, he did not go outside . Instead, he went to the hotel’s gym .
When the elevator reached the floor, Yuan Zhou headed straight to the gym . Only when he reached did he notice that the gym had yet to open .
“It’s not opened yet?” Yuan Zhou was speechless as he stared at the shut door .
“Fine, I will go run around the hall downstairs,” Yuan Zhou went downstairs and started his exercise routine .
After finishing his exercises, Yuan Zhou returned to his own room and took another shower . The temperature in Thailand was rather high .
He was drenched with sweat after his exercise session, making him unable to go eat breakfast . After all, he was a chef that loved cleanliness .
As the breakfast time approached, Yuan Zhou started getting anxious .
“I don’t know the language here . How am I supposed to get food?” Yuan Zhou stared blankly at a hotel booklet .
The booklet in the room was in Thai and English, but unfortunately, Yuan Zhou’s English was at the kindergarten level . Apart from a few common terms, he knew no other English words .
“System, do you provide translation services?” Yuan Zhou asked .
The system displayed, “It is suggested that the host learn the language himself . ”
“I’m already at this age . Can I even learn English at this age?” Yuan Zhou countered with a question .
The system found it hard to answer this question . After all, Yuan Zhou was definitely without any linguistic talent . The system did not need to have a talent assessment ability to know this .
A clear example of this was the fact that even though Yuan Zhou could understand French, he still couldn’t speak the language, and couldn’t read French as well . The level of his linguistic talent was rather obvious…
“Um, I think I will at least be able to recognize the word ‘restaurant’,” Yuan Zhou decided to depend on himself after thinking a bit .
“Restaurants will normally be located on the tenth floor . It wouldn’t be too high up . I still know how to read the word ‘ten’,” Yuan Zhou started searching for the restaurant in a meticulous manner .
After studying the booklet for half an hour, Yuan Zhou finally found something that he suspected to be the restaurant . It was on the third floor of the hotel .
“Luckily I am smart,” Yuan Zhou put the booklet down and left the room .
Yuan Zhou had a habit of eating a light breakfast . In his own restaurant, he would eat whatever he planned to sell for the day . Now that he was in a restaurant, he selected a simple breakfast, consisting of a sandwich and a glass of fresh milk, after walking around the restaurant .
After being done with breakfast, Yuan Zhou prepared to leave the hotel . This was his first day in Thailand . Therefore, he had to enjoy himself .
“I’ll go visit the Phra Phrom statue beside the hotel first . I am from a country with Buddhism as its main religion . it is only proper that I first visit a Buddhist statue,” Yuan Zhou decided and set off after double-checking his wallet .
His wallet was stuffed full with the trip funds provided by the system . As for Yuan Zhou’s own money, he had not brought any . It was very rare for the system to be so generous . Therefore, Yuan Zhou had decided to respect the system’s generosity by finishing the system’s money .
The Phra Phrom statue was at the left side of the hotel, about 500 meters from it . Yuan Zhou walked there on foot .
“The sunlight at Thailand is indeed strong . Luckily, I have my suntan lotion with me . Otherwise, if I get too tanned, I might not be able to find any girlfriends,” Yuan Zhou rejoiced .
Before long, Yuan Zhou reached the Phra Phrom statue . The entrance was wide open, and there were no ticket counters outside . Evidently, one did not need to purchase a ticket to visit this statue .
“It’s good that the entrance is free . Look at this, System . I am saving money for you,” Yuan Zhou said smugly .
The system ignored him . Yuan Zhou was not bothered and entered the building .
Although the entrance was free, one still needed to buy flower offerings for the Buddhist statue . And these flowers weren’t free .
“This,” Yuan Zhou said as he pointed at a yellow and red garland .
A Thai woman with a tanned skin did not say anything . She stretched her palm open, gesturing that this would cost him 50 Baht .
Yuan Zhou nodded and took his wallet out, preparing to pay . Right this moment, the system appeared .
The system displayed, “The trip fund can only be used for Thai food and must be finished while you’re in Thailand . ”
“What?” Yuan Zhou froze, evidently stunned .
Fortunately, there were a lot of people buying flowers here . When the customer beside Yuan Zhou saw that Yuan Zhou wasn’t paying, he stepped forth and paid for his own flower instead . Shortly after, Yuan Zhou was squeezed away .
The system displayed, “The trip fund can only be used for Thai food and must be finished while you’re in Thailand . ”
Once again, the system reminded Yuan Zhou . To make sure that Yuan Zhou could see the message, the system had even considerately used a red font for this message . However, Yuan Zhou only felt like scolding someone now .
“System, this is not right . You did not mention this requirement before,” Yuan Zhou reasoned .
The system displayed, “This is the hidden term . ”
“Hoho,” Yuan Zhou was in disbelief .
The system displayed, “Since hidden missions exist, hidden terms naturally exist as well . A specially allocated fund can only be used for a special purpose . ”
“Sh*t, system, you sound so reasonable . I can’t even counter that,” Yuan Zhou choked on his own words . The “specially allocated fund can only be used for a special purpose” was especially destructive .
That’s right . Yuan Zhou had indeed completed several hidden missions before . He had also reaped the rewards of those missions . It was understandable that hidden terms existed as well .
“So you were waiting for me here,” Yuan Zhou palmed his forehead .
“Fine, I will use it for food . Looks like I won’t be eating any free hotel breakfasts anymore,” Yuan Zhou immediately decided to have all three meals of the day outside . Moreover, he had decided to only eat good food .
He had been forced to waste his money by the system . He was originally satisfied with free food . But now, it was quite annoying for him to return to the hotel to convert some THB for his personal usage .
Before coming, Yuan Zhou had done some serious research on Thailand . Therefore, he knew there was an ATM machine in the hotel and he could directly withdraw THB from the ATM machine . He could avoid using his terrible English at some currency exchange counter .
He already used enough of his terrible English when he was checking in to the hotel yesterday .
“A five-star hotel is really filled with amenities,” Yuan Zhou muttered while withdrawing money . He had withdrawn 2,000 THB from the ATM .
When he returned to the Phra Phrom statue, he encountered no other hiccups .
Yuan Zhou was very devout when praying to the Buddhist statue . He closed his palms together and prayed seriously .
The statue was right beside a street . After he left the statue, he reached the street . Then, he started walking along the street . He was currently at the heart of Bangkok where shopping centers were everywhere .
“I’ll walk around and decide what to eat for lunch . Looks like I need to eat really good food to finish the trip funds,” Yuan Zhou muttered .
