The two people first came to Nanchang, and then arrived in Changsha. By the way, Changsha is very strong, and the Japs' offensive front may have been too long, so the war has been going on so far, no matter how the Japs attack, although Changsha is shaky, but although the battle is tragic, it has not fallen.
So when we arrived in Changsha, we had basically reached the safe zone. Fan Keqin sat on the boat that had slowed down sharply and was about to dock. He looked at the scene on the dock not far away and enjoyed a moment of tranquility.
Then he looked back at Hua Zhang and said, "Madam, after traveling all the way here, we finally arrived in Changsha. Let's take a good rest."
Hua Zhang understood what Fan Keqin meant. It was indeed not easy to get out of Guangzhou. The intensity was no worse than any previous field mission. In addition, after leaving Guangzhou, their speed has never increased. The reason is: South China is crisscrossed by waterways, especially in Guangdong. The dense waterways seriously slowed down their speed, and also made them physically and mentally exhausted.
In addition, you have to change boats frequently along the way, which will make you even more tired. So it's like running, if you just run at a constant speed, you can run for a long time.
But what about when you run at a variable speed? A steady speed for a while, a slow speed for a while, a sprint for a while, and then running uphill for a while. If you are always changing back and forth, people will naturally tire very quickly.
In Hua Zhang's eyes, Fan Keqin didn't change much, as if this man didn't show any negative physical or mental emotions at all. But Hua Zhang could also see that the reason why Fan Keqin wanted to take a break was actually to let himself relax.
Indeed, Hua Zhang's body was so good that he couldn't be called tired, because the word tired was no longer accurate. To be precise, I was tired, very tired. However, Huazhang's physical fitness is actually quite good among women. She has also undergone rigorous training, so now you want to say whether she can persist? The answer is definitely that you can persist. She can persist even if it takes several times longer.
But again, since you have arrived at a relatively safe place and have the conditions to take a good rest so that your body and mind can reach their optimal state again, why should you refuse?
So Hua Zhang nodded directly and said, "Okay, just take it easy."
When the ship docked, Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang were not in a hurry. After watching all the passengers get off the ship, they got off the ship at the end. There is no need to fight with them. I strolled onto the pier and then walked ashore along the aisle.
After we finally reached the main road above, we saw that there were quite a lot of buyers and sellers nearby. There are various snack stalls, rickshaws waiting on the roadside, etc. everywhere.
Fan Keqin looked at his watch. It was around 5:50 in the afternoon, so he said: "Let's go to the best restaurant in Changsha for a big meal, and then find a place to have a good rest."
"Yeah." Hua Zhang said with a smile: "You can also drink some wine to relieve your fatigue... Well, actually, I want to drink some. It can be considered as a celebration that this business can be completed."
"Haha." Fan Keqin said with a smile, "Okay, let's have a couple of drinks in a while."
As they talked, the two people walked towards the place where the rickshaws gathered. It's not easy for these rickshaw drivers. They are waiting here to pick up passengers at the pier, just to make some money to support their families. So who is giving way to whom? There is no shame in making money to support your family.
So when they saw Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang approaching, several coachmen who reacted quickly stood up and picked up the handlebars to greet them. The few slow ones behind saw this and were obviously very experienced, so they knew they couldn't beat him. So I simply stopped grabbing it and continued waiting where I was.
Seeing this, Fan Keqin casually ordered the two coachmen and said, "It's just you. The rest of you should stop hanging around and disperse quickly."
Seeing his roll call, the other drivers had no choice but to retreat to their original positions again. Fan Keqin looked at a relatively smart coachman. He was still in his early twenties, but his skin had been exposed to the sun and had left many traces. Apparently he is also an "old coachman". So he asked: "Do you know which local restaurant or hotel has the best and most authentic food?"
"You asked the right person." The old coachman, who looked young, immediately replied: "Sir, if you want to say that the most famous restaurant in the local area and the taste that many people say is good, it must be Wangdulou. Ah. And it’s not too far away, it only takes about ten minutes at most.”
Seeing Fan Keqin, the rickshaw driver asked for two rickshaws directly. He must not have been short of money, otherwise under normal circumstances, one car would be enough for two people. So I directly reported one of the most famous local restaurants.
"Sure." Fan Keqin said, "It's Wangdu Tower. You can drag me and my wife over there."
"Okay." The driver agreed and lowered the handlebar to make it easier for Fan Keqin to get on. The same was true for another rickshaw driver. After Hua Zhang and Fan Keqin got into two cars respectively, the two rickshaws started running along the road, one behind the other.
Not to mention, it was just like what the young old coachman said. In about thirteen or fourteen minutes, the two cars had already reached the place. Stop directly at the door of a three-story building.
After getting off the bus, Fan Keqin threw a note over and said, "I don't have any change. You two can split it between yourselves. Any extra will be considered as a tip for you."
"Hey, thank you, thank you, sir." The two coachmen thanked them repeatedly. It was still the smart young old coachman. After taking the money, he said: "Sir, madam, I wonder when you two will finish your meal? Do you need a car after you finish eating? We can actually wait here for you two. of."
Hua Zhang saw that he was pulling the cart and wanted to get a repeat customer. In addition, he had already arrived in Changsha, a relatively safe place, so he was in a better mood. So when he heard this, he smiled and replied: "It's not good to make you wait. No need."
"Oh, why don't you use it?" said the young old coachman: "You two must be very noble people. You two have come back from other places and you don't know, right? It's not peaceful at night during this time! What I said It's the truth, but it's not a deliberate attempt to scare people for the sake of the two nobles' money. We won't do that immoral thing.
As soon as you enter the restaurant, the waiter asks for a newspaper. The newspapers these past two days are full of stories about a group of strongmen who prey on wealthy people. Although you two are auspicious and have good fortune, there must be no taboos between you two. But isn’t the old saying true? A gentleman would not stand behind a dangerous wall, right? You two finished your meal. As soon as you came out, Dazhang and I immediately took you two back to your residence. This is the best strategy..."
