Chapter 1661 Prefecture Capital
From Lianhe Township to Meigu, and then from Meigu to Xichang, the state capital of Liangshan Prefecture, the distances are actually similar from the map. Even the distance from Lianhe Township to Meigu is shorter. Some.
Because the mountain road is too rugged and difficult to navigate, it twists and turns all the way down the mountain. Wu Renzhong originally knew how to drive, but he did not dare to walk on such a mountain road.
Zhou Zhi was used to running on mountain roads like this in his hometown. Although the mountain roads here are a little more difficult, one advantage is that there are not many vehicles coming and going. You need to drive until Jiukou Township meets the county road. There were gradually more cars on the road, and after passing the county seat, the road was changed from dirt and gravel roads to asphalt provincial roads.
So it took twice as much time here as there. The two of them came down from the mountain and drove from eight o'clock to two o'clock before entering Meigu County.
In 1994, Meigu County was still very backward. In Jiachuan, there were no houses with mud walls in the county, but here, in the center of the county, there were still houses.
On both sides of the short main street, there are some four or five-story buildings, which are the county government, grain bureau, finance bureau, people's hospital and other units. Overall, they are the eight buildings in Jiachuan. Several years of construction level.
In 1988, the State Council listed Meigu County as one of the 27 semi-agricultural and semi-pastoral impoverished counties in the country. There were nearly 300 impoverished villages in the county, ranking third in the province in number. Ranked first in the state, when the poverty incidence rate was the highest, it accounted for 40.25% of the county's population. It was the county with the deepest poverty level, the heaviest poverty alleviation tasks, and the greatest difficulty in getting rid of poverty in the province.
“There is nothing to see here.” Wu Renzhong said: “If you are interested in the old county town, I will take you to Huili sometime. The old town there has not been demolished at all and is very beautiful.”
“I really can go and have some fun when I have time.” Zhou Zhi said, “What’s good to eat, pretty girl?”
"The third child of the Yi family has the same roasted suckling pig, lumps of meat, and even vegetables." Seeing Zhou Zhi's uninterested look, Wu Renzhong said, "Forget it, I'll treat you to rice noodles, and I'll treat you to a treat when I get to the state. Food.”
Meigu’s powder. It’s just ordinary rice noodles, a bit similar to the kind used for cross-bridge rice noodles. Compared with the rice noodles that became soft and elastic and not easy to break after adding potato starch in later generations, Zhou Zhi prefers this kind of rice noodles that are easy to break, but the taste is more comfortable and the rice is fragrant. A richer version of old fashioned rice noodles.
The ingredients are even more special. People in Liangshan Prefecture especially like to eat pig rice noodles, which are small intestines.
The small intestine has a slightly bitter taste and is not as strong as the large intestine. Whether it is grilled, braised, white soup, dried peas added with water to make pea small intestine soup, or the simplest stewed radish, it is very delicious.
But it is very strange that similar eating methods are almost impossible to see outside Liangshan Prefecture. In Shudu, small intestine has almost only one use, and that is to scrape out the casings to make sausage.
"How's it going? Are you used to it?" Wu Renzhong asked.
"It's pretty good. How about we come over to eat again when we come back tomorrow?" Zhou Zhi added the store's special chili sauce to the noodles: "It's unexpectedly delicious."
< br>“If you like, we can have barbecue in the evening. You can also grill crispy sausage here. , Enough." Wu Renzhong laughed, and then said in a low voice: "Don't just keep your head down, look at the streets outside."
"Hehehe, that's right, our Shama belongs to Meigu."
I don’t know if it coincides with the name of the county. The girls in this county are particularly beautiful. The autonomous prefecture has held a beauty pageant at the annual Torch Festival since 1989. It has been held four times so far. The girls in Meigu County A total of eight golden flowers, six silver flowers, and four bronze flowers were obtained. They often won gold, silver, and bronze, which was quite impressive.
Most of the girls passing by outside the store have a well-proportioned figure, with long legs and thin waists, straight nose bridges, and high eyebrow bones, which makes the eye sockets look a bit deep. Quite exotic.
If her eyes were bigger and her face was prettier, she would basically be a beauty.
Actually, Jiang Shuyi looks a bit like this. Her complexion is fairer than the girls on the edge of the plateau, and her appearance is even better. She should have arrived in Paris by now, and she doesn't know how Xu Hui will evaluate herself when she finds out.
"Elbow, you are still an upright person."
"Huh?" Only then did Zhou Zhi come back to his senses. He didn't know why Wu Renzhong said this.
"Several beauties passed by, and you just stared at the trash can."
"Hahaha..." Zhou Zhi couldn't help but laugh: "I was thinking about other things just now. , Do you dare to drive on this road now?”
“No problem, I also want to touch this high-end car of yours.”
"Then I'll just take a rest. It's been a bumpy road..."
The next journey lasted another three hours, and finally we entered the prefecture city.
Although it is the capital of the autonomous prefecture, in terms of size, it is about the same size as Rongshan Town on Jiachuan. Because the terrain is flat, the width must be twice as wide as Jiachuan.
There are two rivers in the city, one with almost no water and only a red stone river valley is called the West River, the other still has a little water flow, and the remaining one is also a red stone river valley called the East River.
Both rivers flow from north to south, and finally merge into the Haihe River, which runs east-west.
The name of Haihe River comes from the fact that it will eventually flow into Qionghai, a large lake in the southwest of the city.
The entire urban area is basically composed of two banks surrounded by three rivers.
It was just after five o'clock at this time. Wu Renzhong drove through the carousel at the three forks of the East River. After bypassing the famous giant statue of the Yihai alliance between Xiaoye Dan and Liu Shuai, he passed the Autonomous Prefecture Government and turned onto Aerospace Avenue. Soon we arrived at the gate of a middle school.
This is the No. 1 Middle School in the city, the best middle school in the autonomous prefecture. After waiting in the car for a while, they saw a beautiful girl wearing a light blue woolen coat carrying a satchel and coming from the school. He walked out and waved goodbye to the students around him.
"Dudu." Wu Renzhong pressed the horn twice. The girl looked over and suddenly found that the driver was her boyfriend who she had been missing for many days. She was so surprised that she ran over: "Renzhong, Why did you come back and drive a car like this?”
"This is an elbow. This car belongs to a college student who came to our hometown to do research." Wu Renzhong said with a smile: "Shama, come up quickly. Let's go have a brazier barbecue and sing after eating!"
"Elbow, this is my girlfriend, Shama Ricong. She graduated from the Southwest People's Hospital and is now teaching English in No. 1 Middle School."
"Hello." Shama Ricong got into the car and took the initiative to turn his head and extend his hand to shake Zhou Zhi's hand: " Elbow, you are so powerful Damn it, are you a graduate student or a doctor?”
“Sister, I’m not that old.” Zhou Zhi had already obediently slipped into the back seat and handed the passenger seat to Shama Ricong, then shook hands with her. I was just in Shu Sophomore year. "
"Sophomore year?" Shama Ricong's beautiful eyes widened, and he was quite surprised: "You can come out to do the project in your sophomore year? The school will provide you with a car? ”
