There are many realms of pretentiousness. Speaking from other people's mouths, it is obviously the highest.
Xie Xiaochun went to university sponsored by Xie Zhiyao, a distant cousin, and Xie Zhiyao himself was working hard for the development of his hometown, and they had Xie Zhiyao to worry about a lot of their family affairs, so naturally they kept helping Xie Zhiyao. Yao boasts that he is a staunch vanguard and fully supports Xie Zhiyao.
So after Xie Zhiyao left, she tried her best to help Xie Zhiyao brag behind his back. Of course, there was also the reason why Wang Yan wanted to invest in opening a store, so she had to give Wang Yan some confidence.
From this, through Xie Xiaochun's introduction, Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou also learned that Xie Zhiyao gave up a promising job in the capital, returned home, took over a B&B, a horse farm, and tie-dye, and opened a popular business. He opened a small restaurant and set up an online store, purchasing various agricultural products that were not easy to sell in the village at market prices, opening up sales online, providing jobs to people with poor conditions in the village, and leading the villagers to make money. At the same time, he used the money he earned To subsidize other money-losing businesses, he is a good young man who is praised by people in the village with thumbs up when he mentions it. He is the backbone of Yunmiao Village in all matters big and small...
Also during this process, Xie Xiaochun prepared two cups of freshly squeezed watermelon juice and refilled Xu Hongdou's thermos cup with water. Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou arrived at Youfeng Restaurant and sat down in the open-air dining area. After taking a while, they were ready to have lunch.
Seeing Wang Yan putting his hands behind his head, leaning back comfortably on the chair, looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, Xu Hongdou also looked up and said with a smile: "They are also strange, the store is open to the air. It rains here too. Quite a bit, it would be bad if it was poured over half of the food."
"It's not all open air, they give people a choice. If you eat and drink under the eaves, you will lose the sky in this square well. If you eat here, you have to withstand the sun and rain. Think about it carefully, there are still some It’s a matter of feeling.”
"Life is full of philosophy." Xu Hongdou nodded seriously and said with a sigh, "That Mr. Xie just now was quite powerful and very ambitious."
"It depends on a person's choice. Rather than saying that he is very ambitious, it is better to say that he is capable. After all, not everyone can open up a situation in such a poor village. But it is not bad. To say that it is powerful, it is also It has to be those impoverished villages where there is not much output from the land and there is no good scenery. The people who rise up in those places are really powerful."
"Have you ever seen such a person?" Xu Hongdou sipped watermelon juice from her cherry mouth and looked at the lazy man opposite.
"That's for sure. It's in the northwest region, where there is poverty and only loess is left. It's in places like that that people just start working hard. They set up some handicraft workshops and artificially create scenic spots to attract some time-travel enthusiasts. . There are many such people, but they just don’t show their name. China has a population of 1.4 billion, and the poverty alleviation efforts for so many years cannot be all done by directly giving money to show off, right? Every mountain is higher than the other."
Wang Yan would never praise Xie Zhiyao. Of course, he did not harm others, but he just mentioned some people who were more powerful than Xie Zhiyao, thereby reducing Xie Zhiyao's sense of existence. As the saying goes, you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but you are afraid of comparing goods. In this drama, Xie Zhiyao is a capable person, but if you look at the whole country, that's all.
"very nice."
"What's so good?"
"It's great that you have traveled all over the world and are knowledgeable."
"It may not be good. You asked me about my friends two days ago. This is a lonely journey."
Xu Hongdou looked at Wang Yan doubtfully: "So you really want to invest here?"
"Maybe. Didn't I say that I have to look again?" Wang Yan shook his head and said, "I have told you this before. I am too tired after walking for so many years. It is true that I want to find a place to settle down, but not That’s all. But I quite like it here. The air is good, the environment is good, the Bai people are friendly, and there are mountains, water, and woods. It’s a good place to retire.”
"What about after you settle down?"
"Of course, you should live one day at a time and take it one step at a time. You don't have to set a goal to achieve it. And many of people's goals are money, living in a big house, driving a luxury car, and all kinds of high consumption. These things, with My current financial strength is not a big problem, but I don’t like it very much. I just thought, drinking tea, reading books, writing, and taking photos every day, three people are full and two people are well fed, isn’t this a good life? "
Wang Yan lowered his arms, leaned on the table and drank freshly squeezed watermelon juice. He looked at Xu Hongdou, who was sitting across from him thoughtfully, and continued, "What about you? What's your future? I think it's probably your return. Go to the capital to find a job and earn money to make a living. With your conditions, it is difficult and tiring to stay in the capital. Maybe one day you meet a man and you agree to work together. Struggle. But you are already thirty-two. How old is the man you are looking for? He is a late bloomer. What is the probability that it will fall on you two?
Of course there is another option. With your looks, it is not difficult to find a rich man. I think when you were working as a lobby manager in a hotel, many people must have expressed this intention to you. The probability of getting married is too low, and the main thing is to live a youthful life, but it is certain that you will get more money than you can get from working. In the end, it is nothing more than returning to your hometown to be with your parents. No matter whether you get married or not, you will still live the same life. So what is your future? Have you thought about this problem yourself? "
Xu Hongdou fell silent because she didn't know how to answer and there was no need to answer. She must have thought about it, including talking about it many times with Chen Nanxing, but she never came up with any results because there was really no result. This was a problem she subconsciously avoided. She had never thought carefully about the long-term future.
"Stop!" After a while, seeing Xu Hongdou wanting to go in, Wang Yan woke him up, shook his head and said, "Don't think too much, otherwise the more you think about it, the sadder you will be and you won't be happy. Anyway, you have to stay here for three days." There are only a few months, so there is plenty of time. When you have enough fun, you will have plenty of time to think about a major problem."
With a depressed sigh, Xu Hongdou said with some disappointment: "I really don't know what to do in the future. In the past, I only looked at the little money in front of me. I spent a lot of effort just to make a living every day. How could I Do you think so much? It’s better for a rich person like you to satisfy your material needs before you can have spiritual pursuits.”
"You can't say that. The main problem is whether you know what you want. Before considering this issue, you should understand where your upper limit is. After all, it is no longer possible to shout loudly that I will grow up. Children who want to be scientists who invent and research, teachers who teach and educate people, and doctors who save lives and heal the wounded can no longer have unrealistic fantasies.
It is important to know where your abilities are so you can know what you can get and what you cannot get. All in all, you need to know what kind of life you want, and what kind of life your abilities can enable you to live. "
"Okay, okay, let's stop talking. Listening to my nonsense will affect your own judgment. You must consider the long-term future, but more importantly, you must grasp the moment." Wang Yan raised his wrist and looked at the time. "It's almost time. Let's go have lunch. I was thinking about it yesterday. The most important thing in life is eating and drinking. You can't neglect it. You must eat and drink well."
Xu Hongdou took a deep breath, drank up the remaining watermelon juice in the cup, and stood up while supporting the table: "Eat well and drink well!"
The two of them went out one after another, said hello to Xie Xiaochun and Nana who were busy at the bar, and walked happily towards the Gesanghua Hotel not far away...
Nana took a break from her busy work and looked at Wang Yan's back chatting and laughing with Xu Hongdou, and said without looking back: "I think they are a good match."
"I think it's a good match. Wang Yan's conditions are very good. He's well-informed and well-spoken. He's not a gregarious person. The important thing is that he's not short of money. Oh, yes, I haven't told you yet. You know Wang Yan is open How much does that big pickup truck cost? More than two million. Well, all the hard work we have done is not worth the cost of one of his cars.
Hongdou, you are pretty. Didn’t you say that your previous job was the manager of a five-star hotel? That is also capable. After all, not everyone can be a manager. I have a lot of headaches when I manage so many people every day. Hongdou manages so many people, and I also have to take care of the reception and delivery. It’s awesome. .
But yes, they are a match, but whether it will lead to a result or not is up for grabs. "
Xie Xiaochun shook his head and sighed.
Nana was not a little girl who didn't understand anything. After thinking about it, she understood what Xie Xiaochun was talking about. She shook her head and smiled: "Are you trying to say that Wang Yan is not a good man? He has a lot of relationships between men and women, and there is no long-term love?"
"Hey, I didn't say that. I came into contact with him twice in total, once when I picked them up, and once now. He made me feel very good, and I don't know exactly what it was like. But what you said may be There are some too.”
"Tch, isn't that what you mean? The two of them have just met, and we don't know the specific development yet. That means we are bored, so we are talking about whether we can get along with each other."
"I know you are still gossiping here, so hurry up and get to work. If you don't finish the work, your salary will be deducted."
Nana smiled and started making various drinks again...
Wang Yan and Xu Hongdou had eaten eight large bowls without staying too much in the village. They went directly to the entrance of the village and drove to the ancient city.
After first finding a car wash to wash the old and dirty car until it was shiny, the two went to the famous Fuxing Road in the ancient city. Of course, it was not just this street, but there were several others. The snacks are relatively concentrated, with local characteristics and famous delicacies from all over the country. In this regard, snack streets across the country are similar.
This is a popular tourist attraction. Although it is afternoon, there are still a lot of people. They speak with different accents and it is very lively. At night, the ancient city lights up and it is even more crowded.
Of course Wang Yan was the main one who ate, and basically ate from beginning to end, trying everything. Xu Hongdou was a lot worse and couldn't eat much at all. She watched Wang Yan eat sweetly and felt pity for her full belly.
Of course she paid for it, maybe because she didn't want to have any trouble with money. She spent a lot of money along the way.
Time passed by, the blue sky and white clouds changed to a sky full of stars, and the cities on the ground lit up with neon lights. The ancient city with a history of more than 600 years, combined with the lights of modern civilization, reveals the traces of time, making people unable to help but sigh at the power of time and the greatness of modern civilization. After all, in the past in this land, the chieftain was the leader, and the lives of the brothers and sisters of the Bai ethnic group were not much better than those of the Han people at that time. They were all exploited. Where could there be such a bustle of people?
Seeing Wang Yan eating the squid with his mouth full of oil and holding a handful of skewers in his hand, Xu Hongdou was full of resentment: "I said I came out to eat, but you actually ate well. I was so greedy. But I can’t eat much.”
Wang Yan smiled: "No need to pout, it's not just this one time, there are plenty of opportunities to eat. And this is a snack. If you eat all kinds of things indiscriminately, you will definitely have a bad stomach. What you eat is enough. There’s no need to hold on.”
"Then you're not afraid?"
"My digestion and absorption function is better, so it's not a big problem. Even if there is a problem, you should pay some price to satisfy your appetite. It's not a big deal. You are a woman, and your body structure is different. You will suffer more, or control it. Control it well. Besides, you didn’t eat less today. It’s the same thing to wait for two days before eating. There’s no need to rush.”
"You are the only one who has many principles and speaks one way..."
Xu Hongdou's words suddenly stopped because her eyes were blurred. She saw Wang Yan suddenly bite the squid skewer, turned around and pinched the collar of a medium-sized man behind her wearing a peaked cap, and then followed her a step forward. With a hook of his foot, he threw the man to the ground and stepped on the man's chest with one foot.
Wang Yan bent down and looked down, holding the tip of a bamboo stick through his clothes to prick the man at his feet: "If I continue to struggle, I'll have to work harder."
"Brother, I..."
"You can't even talk." Wang Yan spoke in a calm voice, and then stabbed his face gently with a bamboo stick. "Be honest and cooperate. Let's go through the motions and it's over. Understand? Don't struggle, let alone pick you off." The small dagger in your pocket won't do you any harm. Is there surveillance over there, and do you know how to defend yourself infinitely? Very good, let's stay in this position now."
Xu Hongdou looked at this scene with confusion, and then looked at the Lezi people who had formed a circle in an instant, becoming the focus of so many people, which made her a little uncomfortable.
She came closer and asked softly: "What's wrong?"
"Thief." Wang Yan put away the bamboo stick, stood up and looked at a group of busybodies holding mobile phones. He shook his head and smiled, took out his mobile phone from his pocket and called the police.
This is the modern world, or the modern world two thousand years from now. He would then go to great lengths to subdue the person and then call the police and act like a monkey for a period of time. If it were in the past, when there weren't so many cameras, he would definitely break an arm and leave for such an able-bodied adult. He must be taught a painful lesson.
Xu Hongdou also realized at this moment that her mobile phone in her pocket was missing and she had to ask the man on the ground for it.
"Catch the thief and catch the dirty laundry. Wait until the police come. If he doesn't admit it, we can also check fingerprints or something." Wang Yan stopped him for a moment and the call was connected. He communicated with the people at the alarm center and explained the location. Then he hung up the phone and put it in his pocket.
Wang Yan looked at the busybodies around him and said loudly: "Friends, everyone takes videos, but don't talk nonsense. The scenery of the ancient city is very good, and all kinds of food are delicious. Friends here are Enthusiastic. But this kind of sneaking around and getting something for nothing happens everywhere. Don’t use nonsense, malicious smear, or even regional discrimination."
What he said is true. When there are too many people, troubles are likely to happen. This is a problem of people, not of the people there. The country has been cracking down on pickpocketing for decades, coupled with ubiquitous cameras, and today cash is rarely used. Taken together for various reasons, there are almost no thieves left, and they have all turned to fraud and other industries.
That is to say, this is a scenic spot, and the crowds are too busy, which temporarily gives thieves an opportunity to take advantage of it. According to the current intensity of police actions, especially in scenic spots, law enforcement is still carried out under the lens of everyone holding a mobile phone and snapping photos. Today, he failed to catch the current situation. When the police station receives the report, the thief will probably not be able to hide. He would be arrested within a few days.
But many people don't think so. There are always people who confuse right and wrong, have no brains to think, and regard occasional incidents as the norm. This is part of the root cause of many noisy things on the Internet.
As soon as his words fell, there was a burst of applause from all around. That being said, it’s unclear how the specific video was released. Mainly it’s a question about the comment section…
The police arrived very quickly. In places with dense crowds like this, even if there is no police station, there will still be police patrols on duty to ensure the safety of people's property.
In such a short time, many people have gathered on the three floors inside and outside. When the police came, they didn't waste any time. They took out Xu Hongdou's cell phone from the thief and took it away. They also asked Wang Yan to leave with Xu Hongdou. They went over to cooperate, register, record a testimony, etc... …
