After a while the counter comes alive and starts to increase the welfare of taxi drivers and at the same time to reduce yours. Sometimes, the counter begins to count with a crazy speed, especially if you take a taxi, waiting for customers at the “cool” hotel. So, once I was driving from the Orlando Disney transportation on the island of the sun, and yet before reaching the bridge across the Songhua River, I saw on the counter of 35 usd which exceeded the normal rate. I immediately began to resent and signaled the driver that I know the price and pay the top will not. On reaching the destination, I got the number on the counter equal to 50 usd – nearly double the tariff. I go out, give the driver 25 usd, and go up to the boot a taxi to pick up a bag. He is indignant and blocking me from the trunk of his coach. Situation! Well, not to fight the same with him … Pause delayed. And suddenly I see my old friend the guard of this hotel – police Lin! I approached the glass door, firmly knock and Lin, smiling broadly, comes to us. We are a friendly hello to him. Driver check and opens the trunk. He was puzzled. He wants money, but he does not want to be in conflict with my friend and police. He was waiting when I come to it after our hugs with Lin, and strongly shows me the finger 4 and zero (40 yuan). If the Chinese started to haggle – the price tag can throw off yet! I took out five yuan and give him with the words “Ceci pane” (thank you friend). He looks at me reproachfully, but I’ve picked up a bag and went to the hotel.
