For Meng Fanqi and Han Ci, the places where they stayed in Yanjing were quite remote, and it was not easy to get into the city.
Outside the North Fifth Ring Road, Yanjing Electric Power University is located. To put it bluntly, it is no longer Yanjing. It is closer to Hebei than to the city.
People who are not familiar with these two top schools in China, Yenching and Beijing, often think they are in the center of Yenching, but they are actually just outside the Fourth Ring Road.
In the northwest corner of Yanjing, between the North Fourth Ring Road and the North Fifth Ring Road, the two universities occupy a large area.
They are adjacent to each other and almost run through the Fourth Ring Road to the Fifth Ring Road, crossing the two campuses and taking more than five kilometers to walk.
Next to it is the Old Summer Palace, Haidian Park and the Summer Palace, with mountains, water and courtyards.
A little further to the west, there are Liangshan Park, Baiwang Mountain and Fragrant Mountain. Climbing is good, and the red leaves of Xiangshan Mountain in this season are also unique.
Within the Yanjing Fifth Ring Road, the only two green spaces are near these two universities and the Olympic Forest Park.
It can be seen how good the treatment for students from top prestigious universities is. Here at Yanjing Electric Power University, where Meng Fanqi lives, the wind and dust are blowing, making it difficult to breathe. The oncoming breeze was grainy.
How can you imagine that just across the street from the school gate is the Old Summer Palace and the beauty of the Summer Palace?
However, although the two schools are good, they are still some distance from the city center.
Han Ci didn't go out much on weekdays, and he only entered the city a handful of times in the past few years. Although in theory it is closer to the city than Meng Fanqi, and he can stay in Yanjing for a longer period of time, he really cannot play the role of a tour guide during this trip.
Although he had just signed a contract that was expected to start at tens of millions per quarter, Meng Fanqi had no money, but no driver's license or car.
Not having a car is really a troublesome thing. It's okay in a big city like Yanjing, but in a small capitalist country town, it's really difficult to move without a car.
Meng Fanqi shook his head and listed this matter as the top priority that must be prepared after going to the United States.
Now that they wanted to enter the city, the two had no choice but to embark on the subway arduously. After two shifts, they finally arrived at Han Ci's destination, Nanluogu Lane.
Nanluogu Lane, Drum Tower, and the front and rear seas are basically connected together. Meng Fanqi had visited this area once or twice in his previous life, but it was so long ago that his impression was not deep.
"This place looks like it is meant to rip off tourists." Meng Fanqi walked and looked around. He always felt that the snack shops on both sides had a strong sense of attractions. It seemed that the core of the alley was covered with a layer of capital exaggeration. "If you really want to eat snacks, would it be better to go to West Second Ring Road, Huguo Temple, or Niu Street?"
"From Nanluogu Lane to Shichahai, is it known as a street that rips off customers?" Han Ci looked for delicious food with a smile. He didn't sound like he didn't know the inside story. "My local classmates in Yanjing all said that you can spend a penny here." It’s disrespectful to intelligence.”
"I knew you brought me here." Meng Fanqi didn't care about this, but just found it a bit funny. "Knowingly, right? You're trying to disrespect me."
"I think your IQ is a bit high, so I have to find a way to neutralize it for you." Han Ci said, and he first bought two large potato towers worth more than ten yuan each. "A big bunch of potatoes for 17 or 18 yuan, which will cost you three points of intelligence at least."
"Just stay here and play computer games. It also reduces your intelligence." Meng Fanqi always felt that now Han Ci was no longer as aloof as before, and he was always doing things with abnormal brain circuits, and he was becoming more and more like Maimang. "Two more plastic-wrapped roast ducks, IQ will go directly to the basin."
"Haha~ I want to eat Wenyu cheese." Han Ci did not answer the question at all and led Meng Fanqi to continue to waste money.
"After eating Wenyu cheese, go to Gulou West Street to eat Sanyuan Meiyuan. Let's compare, right? It's really yours." Meng Fanqi looked at the lively Han Ci in front of him and felt that something was wrong.
Why did this girl's style suddenly change like this? Isn't that too childish?
Han Ci had many expressions today, completely changing his usual cold habits. When he heard that Meng Fanqi had guessed his plan, he turned his head and made an exaggerated grimace.
This was unexpected by Meng Fanqi. He had never imagined that Han Ci would make a face.
Freezing the time at that time, Meng Fanqi felt that he was an extremely lucky person. He went back to ten years ago, standing in the alley where Yanjing was robbing customers, listening to a talented and beautiful girl talking about childish logic and nonsense. Discourse.
At this time, Han Ci was eighteen years old and had not experienced what happened later. Although what she was doing was stupid, it could not cover up her intelligence and beauty at all.
Meng Fanqi recalled the days when he worked overtime 996 hours a day, traveled to Yanjing Shanghai for a few taels of silver, and commuted 2-3 hours a day.
Thinking about taking on the mortgage, I began to worry about how many years I would be able to keep my job.
Then I remembered that I had actually signed an astronomical share contract with Baidu, and was about to go to Australia to negotiate with Google.
Holding the technical service contract just signed today in his hands, Meng Fanqi felt that his life had truly begun from this moment on, and his previous life could only be regarded as long dead.
From this day on, you will have the ability and courage to say no to almost everything in your life that you don’t like or want.
And there is no need to provide any reasons or explanations to the other party.
He naively thought that everything would be happy and that he could make the people around him happy. Including Han Ci, the person who witnessed the first moment of change in his life.
Meng Fanqi actually didn't know anything about his future life. He had never set foot in such a wealthy class and world, but his heart was not empty. He was surrounded by love, curiosity, luck, confusion, cowardice, etc., etc. , none of them left.
Looking back at the streets he walked, he couldn't remember which street he came from. The experience just now was like catkins in the wind. He only saw Han Ci, who had just made a face, turn his head. .
For a long time afterwards, he thought that no matter what, he would always return to this place again, because everything started from here, and it must be found from here in the end. It’s just that the feelings that have passed will never come back, but that’s a story for another day.
"Let's go and see the Drum Tower." Han Ci bought the snacks in Nanluogu Alley, but in the end they were just a joke and not a real meal.
If you really want to have dinner, you won’t fill your stomach with snacks like these that fool tourists.
"Shabu-shabu pork in a copper pot~" After walking through Nanluogu Alley from south to north, you can see the Drum Tower to the west, and you can see Shichahai from north to south. Han Ci found a copper pot shabu-shabu restaurant next to Houhai. She happily started showing off her crappy Beijing movies again.
This place is near Beihai North Station, next to Prince Gong's Mansion.
Meng Fanqi couldn't help but hum a few words, "Mountains are to the south, Beihai is to the north."
"It's pretty good. Whose song is it?"
Just as he was about to answer Ma Di, Meng Fanqi was suddenly stunned on the spot. Ma Di had not yet sang.
