Chapter 188: Mythical Chessboard Copy Hangcheng!

The old man of the Zhang family laid the foundation for mining in the Northeast. Six brothers and sisters of his father\'s generation were responsible for spreading the business across the country, mostly focusing on the entertainment industry. In addition to the Internet, their family was in the serious entertainment industry. There is also a big company that is managed by Mr. Zhang\'s third uncle.

As for Zhang Zhiyuan himself, he is the son of his eldest sister. His father is a daughter-in-law, and he takes his mother\'s surname.

Because of some disputes within the family, Young Master Zhang chose to go to Yunnan Province, intending to start a new business in the borderland.

There is a bit of helplessness in this...

"Of course, when we are not talking about business, our family relationship is still very good. When my second uncle was young, it happened to be when Guganzai movies were popular. At that time, he wanted to go to Hong Kong City to hang out with Brother Haonan. Grandpa almost broke his leg..."

"So he may have a bit of a reckless complex. Don\'t worry about it when you really get along with him. My second uncle is a good person..."

Because coming to Hangzhou would inevitably involve dealing with Mr. Zhang\'s second uncle, Zhou Wang still remembered what Zhang Zhiyuan said before.

Judging from this unique pick-up ceremony, Zhang Zhiyuan\'s judgment of his second uncle was still very accurate...

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, my name is Xiaobiao, and I am Mr. Zhang\'s assistant. Mr. Zhang originally wanted to pick you up in person, but because the day after tomorrow is the night of Wuyou, there are too many things that Mr. Zhang needs to coordinate in person. He asked I convey my apologies to you, and he will be waiting for you at the company headquarters tomorrow..."

Among the group of men in suits, the leader was a strong man, but he spoke very carefully and methodically.

At this time, a group of people surrounded Zhou Wang and walked to the parking lot. There were beauties on the left and right, and behind them were a group of black-clad bodyguards.

After the initial embarrassment, Zhou Wang\'s mentality became much calmer. He put on his sunglasses and shook his steps, showing that he didn\'t like anyone.

"It doesn\'t matter. He is an elder and the top leader of the company. No matter what, I can\'t bear for him to personally pick up the plane. Please help me convey my gratitude. In fact, it doesn\'t need to be so grand..."

Zhou Wang nodded and responded to what Xiao Biao said.

Soon, the group of people arrived at the parking lot, where a row of black Mercedes-Benzes were parked nearby. The front one was a Mercedes-Benz S500L, and the other cars were Mercedes-Benz E-Classes, a total of five cars.

The price can\'t be said to be expensive, but the lineup seems to be there.

Xiao Biao and another boy in a suit personally opened the door for the three of them. Xu Wenqian consciously got into the passenger seat, leaving the back seat for Zhou Wang and Jiang Qingkui.

The Mercedes-Benz started slowly, drove out of Hangzhou Xiaoshan Airport, and drove along the airport highway toward downtown Hangzhou.

To Zhou Wang\'s surprise, not only was an ashtray placed in advance on the folded headrest in the middle of the back seat, but a pack of Liqun and a metal lighter were also placed.

"Thank you."

Zhou Wang smiled, this detail is invincible. After all, for people who are addicted to smoking, the first thing they do after leaving the airport is to light up a cigarette...

"Mr. Zhou, as long as you are satisfied...but this is actually what Miss Jiang reminded me."

Xiao Biao smiled sheepishly and did not take any credit.

When Zhou Wang heard this, he looked at Jiang Qingkui in surprise, who was just smiling and saying nothing. He wanted to kiss her as a reward...

As if she sensed that Zhou Wang\'s eyes were a little dangerous, Jiang Qingkui didn\'t dare to sit still any longer. She quickly picked up the lighter, took out a cigarette from the cigarette case and lit it for Zhou Wang.

Zhou Wang glanced at the cigarette case. It was Liqun\'s "Cloud Leisure". He didn\'t know much about it, but it was good to change the flavor occasionally...

Zhou Wang lit up a cigarette and didn\'t look at Jiang Qingkui anymore. He just turned around and pressed the car window. He looked at the extremely nice greenery on both sides under the scorching sun and the shadows of the tall buildings in the distance. He couldn\'t help but sigh:

"Hangcheng..."

Although in a previous list, Mingcheng, like Hangzhou, was selected into the list of new first-tier cities in China.

But even though Mingcheng is his hometown, Zhou Wang has to admit that the gap between Mingcheng and Hangzhou is still huge. Taking GDP as an example, in 2023, Hangzhou\'s GDP has exceeded 2 trillion, while Mingcheng has only 700 billion.

This is the stark gap.

Looking at the prosperity that was about to engulf him, Zhou Wang felt a throbbing for no reason.

...

On the way, Zhou Wangxian had a phone call with Zhang Zhiyuan and was personally entertained by his second uncle, which was as it should be.

When he put down his phone, he glanced at the dozen or so unread WeChat messages and frowned. When he opened them, he saw that they were all from Cheng Yiyi.

"Zhou Wang, are you free tonight? I\'ll get off work at 5:30 after the meeting..."

"Peeping in the Secret.jpg"

"I\'m staying the night in Hangzhou. Do you want to have dinner together?"

"Zhou Wang, I\'ve asked you out so many times, how could you go so far!"

"Fairy\'s Wrath.gif"

"You did something like that to me today..."

"I want to tell Liu Zixi and Xie Yuying that you... you are irresponsible!"

"..."

Looking at the series of messages sent by Cheng Yiyi, Zhou Wang couldn\'t help but have black lines on his head.

However, the more the other party became emotional, the less Zhou Wang wanted to ignore her... He felt that no matter what he replied, there was a risk of it being taken out of context and posted online.

"Mr. Zhou, the hotel that Mr. Zhang arranged for you to stay at is the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake in Hangzhou. Do you think it needs to be changed?"

At this time, seeing Zhou Wang finally put down his cell phone, Xiao Biao, who had been driving quietly, asked.

"Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake?"

Zhou Wang was slightly surprised.

"Among the many luxury hotels in Hangzhou, this is the only established hotel listed on Forbes five-star list."

Jiang Qingkui, who had already understood it in advance, explained softly at this time.

"Have heard a little bit."

Zhou Wang smiled and said.

Forbes not only has the rich list, it is authoritative in many aspects of selection, such as the star hotels in the "Forbes Travel Guide".

As of 2023, there are a total of 128 hotels in China on the Forbes list, and if the three special zones are excluded, there will be less than 20 Forbes five-star hotels in mainland China.

The Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou West Lake, built more than ten years ago, is the only hotel in Hangzhou to win this honor.

(Xizi Lake refers to "West Lake" in order to distinguish it from the other 35 lakes named after West Lake in China, so everyone also calls it "Xizi Lake")

This high-end hotel, which is part of the Four Seasons Group, is located at position C of the inner lake of West Lake. From this unparalleled location, you can also see its awesomeness.

Unlike Mingcheng, which is located in the southwest corner, as a truly developed city, there are too many high-end hotels in Hangzhou. The first time I stayed in a five-star hotel in Hangzhou, I stayed directly next to the West Lake. It was natural for Zhou Wang is the best choice.

Who told this to be his first time in Hangzhou...

When a native dog enters the city, of course he must see the world as much as possible.

"There\'s no need to change. I\'m very satisfied with this arrangement. Let\'s go to the Four Seasons at West Lake."

Zhou Wang said with a smile.

Xiaobiao responded, slightly speeding up the car, and the Mercedes-Benz S500L continued along the Airport City Avenue, shuttling all the way into the most prosperous urban area of ??Hangzhou.

When he was about to enter the Xixing Bridge, Zhou Wang looked over at the Qiantang River in the distance and was somewhat amazed.

The Qiantang River is inconspicuous on the map, but it looks so wide to the naked eye!

"Mr. Zhou, this bridge will be demolished and rebuilt this year. Maybe you will never see it again next time you come."

Jiang Qingkui smiled and explained to Zhou Wang.

Zhou Wang nodded when he heard the words, and was about to answer when the throbbing in his heart that had arose since entering the city suddenly reached its peak at this moment.

"parking!"

Zhou Wang, who felt dizzy, quickly spoke.

Although Xiaobiao was surprised, he still turned on the double flashers as instructed and pulled the Mercedes-Benz S500L to the side.

"Mr. Zhou, what\'s wrong?"

The moment the vehicle stopped, Zhou Wang didn\'t care what to say to Jiang Qingkui and Xu Wenqian. He quickly opened the door and got out of the car, and stepped onto the flower bed on the roadside in a few steps.

Buzz!

There was a huge roar in his ears, accompanied by countless laughter and murmurs. At the same time, the system prompts sounded in Zhou Wang\'s mind.

bite!

[It is detected that the host enters a developed city with an annual GDP exceeding one trillion for the first time, triggering a hidden reward]

[The host gets the "random chessboard" reward]

["Mythical Chessboard·The Realm of Crouching Dragon" has been loaded and the map of Hangzhou is being changed...]

bite!

[Hangzhou map has been copied]

[The Realm of Crouching Dragon·Hangzhou: When the host is in Hangzhou, he will receive invisible luck blessings, which can trigger events and characters to the naked eye, and give at least three hidden rounds on the map]

bite!

[The Mystery Shop has been updated, and the "Chessboard·Map" mechanism has been activated]

[The host can purchase chessboards of different levels in the mysterious store. The existence of the chessboard will provide various conveniences for the host\'s actions in the corresponding city. The degree of blessing varies depending on the level]

[Note: Each chessboard can only be bound to one city]

[If life is a game of chess, then every important place that can affect your life is the chessboard. Try to be the best chess player]

...

As the system prompts ended, all the strange feelings disappeared.

But the surprise on Zhou Wang\'s face did not diminish but increased. He pushed away Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui who came to help him, looked around, and then, with the blank eyes of the two women, he suddenly looked towards a place by the river. Run to the observation deck.

"boss..."

"Mr. Zhou?"

Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui couldn\'t keep up at all, and could only watch Zhou Wang run dozens of meters at extremely fast speed, and then boarded the observation deck.

When you stand at a higher place and cross the Qiantang River, your vision is reflected in various magnificent colors. Standing on the viewing platform, you are shocked.

Busy traffic, high-rise buildings...

In the eyes of others, this is no different urban landscape, but at this moment, Zhou Wang\'s eyes have undergone earth-shaking changes.

On the horizon, the illusion of a golden dragon is slowly rising. Its figure is entrenched on the edge of the entire city, and it is roaring silently, plunging the entire city into darkness.

At the same time, those buildings and streets all lit up with colorful illusory lights, and various symbols and illusions flashed over the city.

What the hell is this?

Do those symbols and illusions represent events and characters that can be triggered?

Combined with the previous explanation of the system, Zhou Wang already roughly understood...

This is what the chessboarded map originally meant.

When he is in Hangzhou, it is like entering a game. He can actively trigger various events or tasks in this city to obtain rewards.

Or to put it another way, the original reward mechanism of the system in these places is invisible, and can only be seen when Zhou Wang encounters it or accidentally triggers it.

But now, through the chessboard of this "crouching dragon realm", everything has become traceable.

It becomes much easier for him to trigger the reward.

The chessboards in the Mystery Shop also have different levels, and the "Mythical Board" is undoubtedly the highest level among them. This is the benefit brought by the first trigger.

Zhou Wang glanced at it and saw that the exchange price of the "Mythical Chessboard" was as high as one million reputation points. It was a top-notch item that he was currently beyond his reach.

As for at least three initial hidden rounds, it means that there must be more than three unlockable hidden rounds in this map...

For the hidden round, you can refer to the earliest "Angels and Demons", which was also the starting point for Zhou Wang\'s mentality change.

As Zhou Wang gradually calmed down, the magnificent illusion that shrouded the entire city gradually disappeared, and the city in his field of vision gradually returned to an ordinary scenery under the blue sky and white sun.

However, there is an additional "Chessboard-On/Off" button in the system interface. As long as Zhou Wang wants to, he can change the scene he sees at any time.

interesting...

When you are in it, compared with the bustling and huge Hangzhou, the surrounding area seems so small.

But Zhou Wang was quite agitated.

With the help of the chessboard, he seemed to have the capital to truly conquer this city.

Given the system\'s urinary nature, it\'s not certain that there will be any surprises when Zhou Wang completely clears the Hangzhou dungeon...

"Mr. Zhou, what happened?"

At this time, the panting Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui finally caught up to the observation deck. In the distance, Xiao Biao and a group of people also chased after them.

"It\'s okay, I felt a little nauseous just now, so let\'s get some air... let\'s go."

Zhou Wang smiled at the two women. Before turning around and leaving the observation deck, Zhou Wang took out his mobile phone and took a photo of the Qiantang River, treating it as a check-in.

Looking at the vast river and the towering tall buildings, he couldn\'t help but want to say loudly:

"Hangcheng, your emperor is back!"

Oh, no, I have never been to Hangzhou...

It should be said that your king has arrived!

...

We got back on the road, and not long after, the Mercedes-Benz S500L stopped near the West Lake in Hangzhou.

After getting out of the car, Zhou Wang walked around some trees that blocked his view with some expectations. Soon, the legendary West Lake of Hangzhou appeared in his field of vision.

emmm...

How to say it?

At first glance, it\'s not very impressive.

However, Zhou Wang thought for a moment and realized that it was probably because there were too many labels in his memory and his expectations were a bit high.

After all, the song "The Water of West Lake, My Tears" was sung on TV all over the country. It is estimated that many people were as full of expectations as Hui himself before coming here.

To be fair, the scenery here is definitely not bad, but it\'s just not stunning.

The unique tenderness of Jiangnan seems to be reflected in the water, showing a completely different style from the plateau lakes like Yangzonghai.

After Zhou Wang paused for a while, Xiaobiao waved the other men to leave, and he led the three of them to a pier on the edge of the West Lake.

Four Seasons Hotel Hangzhou West Lake provides many special services, one of which is that you can take a boat provided by the hotel to cross the West Lake and then enter the hotel\'s private pier to check in.

We got on the boat picked up from the hotel. There were snacks and tea on the boat. With the gentle rocking of the boatman, the boat paddled through the water and headed towards the inner lake of the West Lake.

The most interesting thing is that there is an expert on the boat who claims to be from the Zhejiang Wild Bird Association. He explains the ecological characteristics of West Lake to several people throughout the process, acting as a tour guide.

"This kind of secret lake tour service can also be purchased separately from the hotel. It costs 3,600 per hour, or 450 per person for a shared boat ride..."

Xiao Biao smiled and said something to Zhou Wang.

Zhou Wang was startled, and then understood what he meant.

The lake tour service Zhou Wang experienced was obviously free, or it was already included in the room rate.

Even in a five-star hotel, it is impossible for the price of all rooms to exceed the price of this service. This only shows that the room booked by Mr. Zhang\'s second uncle is not ordinary. This makes Zhou Wang look forward to it even more... ...

Although the service could last for an hour, Zhou Wang was obviously not interested in visiting for that long. After a quick look, about half an hour later, the boat had docked at the private dock of the West Lake Hotel.

On the pier, there was a woman in her thirties with a good temperament, dressed in formal clothes, waiting for a few people with two waiters.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou, I am the personal butler for you and your relatives and friends staying at Four Seasons at West Lake. You can call me Xiao An or Ann~"

The woman took two quick steps to meet him, bowed to Zhou Wang and greeted him.

"Your English name is easy to remember and easy to remember."

Zhou Wang smiled and shook hands with the woman.

After Xiao An, Xu Wenqian and others also said hello, the waiter took the luggage from everyone and put it on the cart, while Xiao An led everyone into the hotel.

"Mr. Zhou, do you want me to explain our hotel to you and your relatives and friends?"

Xiao An asked with a smile.

Zhou Wangzheng looked around curiously, and nodded immediately after hearing this, "It couldn\'t be better."

"Our Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake officially opened in 2010, so it has been 14 years..."

"The hotel covers a total area of ??37,000 square meters, but so far we only have 81 rooms, and the smallest room is 76 square meters. The greening rate of the entire hotel has reached more than 55%..."

"In short, the hotel\'s style is Jiangnan garden-style architecture, allowing you and your relatives and friends to experience the most authentic Jiangnan style without leaving home..."

(hotel exterior)

After walking and stopping, feeling the coolness and breeze, the group came to the hotel lobby to check in.

The hotel lobby is designed in the style of a Song Dynasty hall. It is spacious and bright, and it makes Zhou Wang feel something different.

Sitting down in the VIP lounge, Xiao An served tea and snacks while helping the three of them check in.

"Mr. Zhou, please confirm that you are about to stay in our Ambassador\'s three-bedroom residence at the Four Seasons Hotel at West Lake. The room area is 920 square meters. It contains a master bedroom and two secondary bedrooms. It can accommodate up to 9 people..."

"The ambassador\'s three-bedroom mansion?"

Zhou Wang felt embarrassed when he heard the name. He couldn\'t help but asked curiously: "Is this your best room?"

"Yes, we only have two three-bedroom mansions in our hotel. The other one is the governor\'s three-bedroom mansion, which has the same area as the ambassador\'s three-bedroom mansion."

Xiao An replied with a smile.

"How much does it cost per night?" Zhou Wang asked again.

Faced with Zhou Wang\'s question, Xiao An did not answer, but looked at Xiao Biao aside.

Xiao Biao then answered with a smile: "Mr. Zhou, because it is difficult to book the three-bedroom mansion in the Four Seasons at West Lake, the price is floating. Generally, the external quotation is around 90,000, but the price our Mr. Zhang booked will be lower than this. ..."

"Please help me express my gratitude to Mr. Zhang again, please."

After Zhou Wang understood it, he said with a smile.

"Mr. Zhou, you\'re welcome."

Xiao Biao quickly leaned over.

Since this three-bedroom mansion has three rooms, there is no need to ask Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui. They just have one room each, which is very convenient...

After completing the check-in procedures, Xiao An led the three of them to the courtyard. On the way, Xiao Biao shared an interesting story with Zhou Wang.

Another three-bedroom mansion of the governor has been occupied by a big boss for a long time. Even this three-bedroom mansion of the ambassador took Mr. Zhang a lot of effort to successfully reserve.

Zhou Wang was a little emotional when he heard this.

The room rate is close to six figures per night, how can anyone stay there for a long time...

He is still not rich enough, or there are too many rich people in Hangzhou.

Anyway, with his current daily salary of 100,000 yuan a day, he definitely cannot afford such a squandering.

Not long after, the group arrived at the ambassador\'s three-bedroom residence.

At this time, Xiaobiao also said goodbye in due course.

"Mr. Zhou, I won\'t disturb your rest, but I\'m nearby. If you need anything, call me anytime. I\'m on call 24 hours a day...Mr. Zhang said that during your stay in Hangzhou, I will be your My guide and assistant, please don\'t be polite to me."

"Okay, thank you."

Zhou Wang smiled and shook hands with him, and after Xiaobiao left, the group entered the gate of the mansion.

"Wow, it\'s so big!"

Xu Wenqian, who had been starry-eyed all along the way, finally couldn\'t help but exclaimed.

920 square meters...

Only residential-style hotel rooms can reach this area. The presidential suites in most five-star hotels are even inferior in terms of area.

There are six courtyards in the front and rear of the ambassador\'s three-bedroom residence. The main body of the villa has a total of three floors, two above ground and one underground.

Not to mention Xu Wenqian, Jiang Qingkui\'s eyes flashed slightly at this time, obviously very interested in this Jiangnan garden-style mansion.

"You can go and move around freely. You don\'t have to follow me. You can choose a room by the way... Whichever of you wants to live in the master bedroom is fine."

Zhou Wang smiled and said to the two women.

Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui were both very excited and immediately walked into the courtyard arm in arm.

"Mr. Zhou, can I take you to visit your new home?" Xiao An, who was still staying in place, suggested at this time.

"OK."

Zhou Wang smiled and nodded.

What made Xiao An a little uneasy was that Zhou Wang looked at her in a strange way, and she always felt that Zhou Wang deliberately pushed the two women away...

This couldn\'t help but make her think wildly.

That shouldn\'t be the case, right?

Whether it\'s Jiang Qingkui or Xu Wenqian, their looks and figure are both inferior to hers. Mr. Zhou, who is young, handsome and obviously wealthy, shouldn\'t have any weird thoughts about her, right?

Or rather, Mr. Zhou has a strong taste and likes mature women like her...

Suppose Mr. Zhou really made some excessive demands, what should I do... give in half? Want to refuse or welcome?

While all kinds of heaven and humans were fighting in Xiao An\'s mind, Zhou Wang also felt quite uneasy inside.

He did deliberately separate Xu Wenqian and Jiang Qingkui, because just now, Zhou Wang noticed an illusory "grey question mark" appearing on Xiao An\'s head.

This shows that she has rewards that can be triggered!

Zhou Wang was surprised to meet an NPC-like character so quickly, and of course he would not miss this opportunity.

It\'s just that he wasn\'t sure what the mechanism for triggering rewards was. In order to avoid unnecessary complications, he deliberately created an opportunity to be alone with his personal butler Xiao An...

There should be many book friends who have never been to Hangzhou, so I will try to include as many pictures as possible in the recent Chapters to facilitate everyone\'s intuitive experience...
