Chapter 49 Xu Anxin
Jingyang is a city that is both ancient and young. The reason why it is ancient is because it has a long history. The birthplace of the ancient Shu civilization and the Pit 1 and 2 of the Sanxingdui Ruins have already been established a few years ago. It was discovered in 2006, but large-scale excavations have not yet started.
It is said to be young because the Republic has successively established several large factories here, including China's Second Heavy Machinery Factory, Dongfang Steam Turbine Factory, and Dongfang Electric Machinery Factory.
This is a very important heavy industrial base in Sichuan and even the whole country.
In the previous life, my mother went to Shudu to study. She took Zhou Zhi with her and told him nothing. She gave him twenty yuan and let him take a car to Jingcheng to play with his cousins.
In my mother’s mind, TEPCO should be a little bigger than the county cement factory, but no matter how big it is, it can’t be twice as big.
Only after Zhou Zhi got off the car did he realize that his own mother had tricked him.
After asking around at the entrance of Dongdian Electric Power Co., Ltd., I learned that it is divided into two factory areas and three living areas. The third living area alone has more than 30 buildings.
Employees and their families, plus the various affiliated factories surrounding the big factory, as well as the employees and their families in the tertiary industry serving the factory area... This is not the concept of a small factory. It is basically a small city within a city, larger than the two Jiachuan Chengguan towns!
So I had to squat down on the side of the road in despair, waiting for the police station to open in the afternoon, and then went to find Sanjia’s address. However, I was picked up by my cousin An An, who was passing by on a bicycle and was going to work in a popsicle factory.
She couldn't do that this time. Zhou Zhi called her cousin An An in advance. Dongdian Technical School was also on holiday, so she had to ask her cousin to pick her up.
On both sides of the railway, there are endless plains, and most of the fields have been drained.
Yang He took the train for the first time and felt that everything was novel. Looking at the vast land outside, he couldn't help but ask: "Is there no rest here?"
Zhou Zhi glanced outside: " This place is different from my hometown. Those are for Shudu and surrounding cities. After harvesting the autumn grain and draining the water, you can grow vegetables for a whole season in exchange for money.”
There is a vegetable base in Jiachuan called Caiba, which is responsible for the main vegetable supply in Jiachuan. There are two types of land, the "soil" dedicated to growing vegetables and the "field" dedicated to growing rice.
After the rice harvest, water is stored in the fields to nourish the soil.
The farming methods here surprised Yang He, but Zhou Zhi said: "You can't do it in your hometown. There is no such a big market in Jiachuan."
"Oh." Yang He said. Li responded, still looking straight at the land: "The land here is so flat..."
It took the car an hour and a half to reach Jingcheng.
After getting off the bus and walking out of the platform, a girl rushed over: "Elbow!"
Then he started beating me randomly: "I asked you to write an article! I asked you to publish in a magazine! I asked you to appear on TV! You are going to make me angry to death!"
Yang He was both stupid, and girls from big cities were all So tough?
"Cousin An Xin, what are you doing?!" Zhou Zhi dodged the girl's pink fist and turned around to protect the fishing rod bag: "This rod is precious! If you break it, my uncle will deal with you!"
While dodging, he did not forget to introduce it to Yang He: "Monk, this is my reassurance sign." Sister, I’ve been used to making trouble since childhood, don’t be afraid..."
Xu Anxin realized that there was someone next to his brother. He finally stopped, smoothed his hair, and stretched out his hand: "You are the elbow Classmate, I am his cousin, Xu Anxin, hello.”
Yang He thought to himself, maybe I can't put my mind at ease, this should obviously be called a show of force.
Looking at the hand extended by my cousin, I didn’t know whether I should take it or not. I haven’t touched a girl’s hand in more than ten years, and my face turned red just thinking about it.
Cousin An An directly reached out and grabbed Yang He's hand and shook it: "Why did Zhou Zhi call you monk? Your hair is very good."
"His name is Yang He." Zhou Zhi said Only then did I have the opportunity to introduce: "In modern history, it is said that the Tuan people governed the West. Foreign missionaries are called foreign monks, so..."
Xu Anxin glared at Zhou Zhi: "As soon as your article was published, my parents took it and publicized it everywhere, and then I became a target of criticism and was criticized. That general training..."
The third aunt is very busy with work and cannot take care of the children's studies. Otherwise, Cousin An Ran and Cousin An An would not be able to find a way out in the technical school with their cleverness.
Xu Anxin continued to glare: "Tell me, what should I do?!"
"A treat! You can find a place!"
"That's pretty much it." Cousin Anxin smiled then He said: "You are rich now? Don't cry then!"
"My cousin asked me to invite you, it's to give me face."
"You know what's going on. Let's go. I'll pick up the car first."
Bicycles are a necessity in plain cities in Sichuan, but Jiachuan is located in a hilly area and is rarely used by people.
In his previous life, Zhou Zhi had just learned how to ride a bicycle at this time, and he learned how to ride it by renting it from a bicycle stall outside the playground next to the school. The rental bicycle stall had a few broken bicycles, which made a lot of money for the children.
My cousin led the way on a women's bicycle. Yang and Tong Zhouzhi followed behind on a human-powered three-wheeler. After a while, they arrived at the living area of TEPCO.
Each building is exactly the same, except for the eye-catching numbers painted in red paint on the wall, which are the building numbers.
After parking the car, my cousin took Zhou Zhi and Yang He upstairs, opened the door and said, "I have agreed with my parents that my brother will be living in the factory these days, and you will live in his room."
"I heard that Is the labor bureau building a dormitory? "My uncle is the director of labor, so he must have some ideas for allocating rooms.
“Not even a single horoscope.” My cousin was already opening the box that Zhou Zhi and the others had brought: “Pure and sweet pomelo like Zhenlong pomelo cannot be eaten outside Jiachuan. Finally, we have another chance. , Monk, don’t be so polite, come and help peel the grapefruit.”
Who is being polite and who is not? Zhou Zhi had no choice but to act as the host: "Has lunch been made? Let me check. Will uncle Sanma be back at noon?"
"If you don't come back, it will be just the three of us at noon. In the afternoon, my cousin will take you out to play. In the evening You treat me, we'll eat outside." "Ah..." Zhou Zhi couldn't help but laugh: "Sister, your arrangement is very tight."
"You guys are getting an advantage!" My cousin looked like she was taking advantage of you: "My two best friends want to meet you, tsk tsk tsk, they are great writers! How amazing!"
"Isn't this a bit rude? I mean to my uncle, my third wife, and my cousin An Ran." Zhou Zhi was a little speechless. It was unreasonable for a scumbag to laugh at a top student and still feel comfortable laughing at him.
"It's not like he won't come back. My dad usually doesn't come back until eight or nine o'clock."
"So miserable? I still want to go fishing with my uncle."
"Fishing? Now he can only go to the park on weekends to enjoy himself. The fish raised there are not bad in terms of water quality."
"Isn't there a river here?" Zhou Zhi picked up the Jingyang map he bought at the station: “Jing...yang...he. "
"It's become a stinky ditch, and it's still Jingyang River." My cousin looked at Zhou Zhi with a half-smile: "Who did you listen to?"
"Then this. Didn’t the fishing rod go blind?" Zhou Zhi was a little confused.
“Stop talking nonsense and go cook!”
A simple meal, soup with green bamboo shoots and leaf slices of meat, and braised radish with green garlic sprouts. After eating and washing the dishes, my cousin asked Yang He: "Can the monk know how to ride a bicycle?"
"He can't, I Take him.”
The cousin picked out two keys from the bamboo plate at the door: "Let's go!"
"Pick a women's model, it's easy to get in and out of." Zhou Zhi said, "I'm not very good at this craft."
Cousin An Ran is a mechanical geek, and in this family One thing about bicycles is that even though they are old, they are still as good as new.
In the early years, when cousin An Ran was still a middle school student, he made as much money as his parents by saving used cars and selling them to his classmates.
When you get to the auto repair shop and have painting equipment, it will be even worse.
So there is no shortage of bicycles at home.
Zhou Zhi and Yang He had a falling out, but in the end Zhou Zhi rode alone, while Yang He sat aggrievedly behind his cousin.
The bicycle arrived at a small storefront in the city. My cousin led the two of them in, and they heard two beauties waving in the corner. One of them shouted in Mandarin: "Anxin, here!"
People in this city come from all over the world, and they often communicate in Mandarin, which is a major feature of the Sichuan area today.
Zhou Zhi looked at the environment. It could almost be regarded as a cafe.
Of course they also sell beer and skewers, but they are different from the skewers shops of later generations. There are posters of foreign movies on the walls, and Western light music is played in the shop...
In other words, ——Still showing off his style.
After sitting down, several girls chatted among themselves, and then one girl said: "An Xin, you haven't introduced us yet!"
The cousin then said with a smile: "My cousin doesn't need to be introduced, right? This is his classmate Yang He, everyone can just call him monk."
After that, he introduced Zhou Zhi: "These two are my best friends. , this is Lu Qiao, this is Cancan, please call me sister!”
Zhou Zhi and Yang He nodded quickly: "Hello, sisters."
Zhou Zhi also asked: "Sister Cancan, what is your surname?"
As soon as this question was asked, the girls were already laughing. , Cancan blushed and kept slapping Lu Qiao and her cousin: "Don't tell him!"
While struggling to avoid the hand of the girl named Cancan covering her mouth, the cousin shouted: "Her surname is Jin!"
Jin? Golden? This person’s parents are really good at naming!
After laughing for a while, the person on the other side stopped, and the cousin said: "Today the great writer agreed, he's treating me! Monk, what do you want to drink?"
"I'm free." Yang He was at a loss in this place.
“Let me see what I have.” Zhou Zhi took the order.
Today's merchants are very honest. The coffee on the list does not say coffee, but "Nescafe", and the orange juice is not orange juice, but "Guozhen Orange Juice."
The advertisement Guozhen placed on TV showed a spectacular scene of an American space shuttle taking off, implying that this thing was an imported space drink, which was amazing.
There is another even more powerful thing - Tianfu Cola.
Zhou Zhi wanted to try it, but drinking Tianfu Coke in winter was too nonsense, so he had to say: "Give Yang He a cup of pineapple-flavored Guozhen. It doesn't taste like Sichuan. Well... forget it. Green tea.”
“Don’t embarrass me, little old man!” My cousin snatched the order: “Then one cup of Guozhen and two cups of coffee!”
Ah...why does drinking tea embarrass you? !
Looking at the two cups of brown transparent liquid ordered by the two girls opposite, this coffee is a bit too much, and only the masters of the future will drink it...
