Chapter 118 The Qinhuai River

Chapter 118 Along the Qinhuai River

Zhuang Rui's bank card only had more than 500,000 yuan, but Liu Chuan helped him transfer 480,000 yuan. As a result, Zhuang Rui still had a net worth of more than 100,000 yuan, but it had shrunk a lot compared to a few months ago.

After paying the money, several people waited in the office for a while. It was about four o'clock when the staff of the car dealership informed them that they could pick up the car. Zhuang Rui drove his Grand Cherokee, while Lei Lei and Liu Chuan each

After driving a car, Qin Xuanbing naturally sat in the passenger seat of Zhuang Rui.

The three cars drove out of the dealership one after another and drove to the Qinhuai River not far away. They had already agreed to go to the shipyard there for dinner first. Liu Chuan was also familiar with Nanjing, so he drove the car ahead.

"Xuan Bing, please dial the number for me and I'll ask my brother-in-law if he's coming for dinner? By the way, you haven't met my brother-in-law yet, have you?"

Zhuang Rui said to Qin Xuanbing while driving the car. His mobile phone was next to the transmission, but there were more cars here. Zhuang Rui didn't dare to be distracted, but he didn't pay attention. What he just said made Qin Xuanbing feel slightly embarrassed.

.

"I have never met your brother-in-law, but I have met your mother. By the way, Zhuang Rui, what did your mother do before? Her temperament makes people feel very noble."

Qin Xuanbing suddenly remembered the gentle and generous appearance of Zhuang Rui's mother, and asked while holding her mobile phone and dialing the number Zhuang Rui said.

"My mother? She has been teaching all her life. She is a teacher. There is nothing special." Zhuang Rui replied casually. However, he himself did not know the origin of his mother. It seemed that his mother had never returned to her parents' home since she was a child, and she had never been there.

When it comes to his family affairs, Zhuang Rui only knows that his mother's surname is Ouyang and her given name is a euphemism, but he doesn't know anything else.

"Hey, hey, is this Xiao Rui? Strange, why is there a woman talking?"

Zhuang Rui was distracted for a moment, but Qin Xuanbing heard a man's voice coming from the phone and quickly put the phone to Zhuang Rui's ear.

"Yes, it's me, brother-in-law, have you finished your work? It's already dinner time. Let's have dinner together and stay in a hotel for the night." Zhuang Rui came back to his senses and said quickly into the microphone,

The skin next to the ear came into contact with Qin Xuanbing's fingers, and she felt a little itchy.

"Have you bought your car? There's no need for dinner. My client here wants to treat us to dinner. Let's contact you later in the evening."

Zhao Guodong purchased a lot of things this time and was considered a big customer. The boss who supplied him also wanted to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Zhao Guodong, so he arranged a banquet in the evening.

The car dealership was very close to the Qinhuai River. Within ten minutes, Liu Chuan drove the car into an open-air parking lot. Zhuang Rui quickly followed him. Looking out of the car window, he could already see the Qinhuai River.

.

The Qinhuai River was called Huai River in ancient times, and its original name was "Longzangpu". It is about 110 kilometers long and is very famous in history. According to legend, when the first emperor of Qin Dynasty visited the east, he saw the purple air rising over Jinling and thought it was royal energy, so he cut the square mountain and cut off the long ridge.

As a result, it entered the river. Later generations mistakenly believed that this water was opened during the Qin Dynasty, so it was called "Qinhuai".

The Qinhuai River dates back to the Stone Age, and there have been human activities in the basin. It has been a prosperous commercial district since the Eastern Wu Dynasty. During the Six Dynasties, it became a place where famous families gathered, with merchants and literati gathering, and Confucianism flourished. After the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it gradually

Although it was in decline, it attracted countless literati and poets to come here to pay their respects, chanting that "in the old days, the kings and the swallows in front of the hall flew into the homes of ordinary people." In the Song Dynasty, it gradually recovered and became the cultural center of Jiangnan. The Ming and Qing dynasties were the heyday of Qinhuai, which is ten miles away.

For 1,800 years, the Qinhuai River has always been one of the most prosperous places in Nanjing, known as the "Ten Miles Pearl Curtain". Since ancient times, the Qinhuai River has been a gathering place for humanities and merchants, and is known as the "Beautiful Land in the South of the Yangtze River".

Zhuang Rui's impression of the Qinhuai River came from his school textbooks. The essay "Qinhuai River in the Sound of Oars and Shadows of Lights" was the first time Zhuang Rui heard about the beautiful scenery of the Qinhuai River, which made him even more impressed.

, naturally they were the singing girls on the shipyard, but in modern times, they probably no longer exist.

"Mu Mu, let's go to the boathouse for dinner later. When it gets darker and the lights on the boat are turned on, it will smell good. There may be performances by then."

After Liu Chuan parked the car, there was a little black lion running in front of him, and Lei Lei followed beside him. He looked quite bossy, but his pants were a bit shameless.

On both sides of the Qinhuai River, there are all antique buildings with cornices, leaky windows, carved beams and painted buildings. However, Zhuang Rui knew that the original buildings had long been destroyed in the war, and these should have been built later. Walking along the Qinhuai River, it was like walking through

Going through the vicissitudes of history, it gives people a sense of tranquility and relaxation.

Lighting a cigarette and sitting under the weeping willows by the river, looking at the slightly rippling river water, the little white lions running and playing, and the beauties around him, Zhuang Rui felt as if he was in a dream. His former self was traveling all day long.

At the subway bus station, at that time, I never thought that I could have everything in front of me.

Qin Xuanbing was also whispering to Lei Lei. Only Liu Chuan was teasing the little black lion boredly. This little guy is not growing very slowly. Although it is smaller than the white lion, it is not as big as other dogs of the same size.

When it gets up, it seems to be growing much faster, especially the head of the black lion, which has now begun to take the shape of a tiger's head. It looks honest but mighty.

"Wood, wood!"

Liu Chuan shouted twice. Seeing that Zhuang Rui ignored him, he picked up a lump of dirt from the ground and threw it at Zhuang Rui. However, he found the white lion staring at him and roaring in his throat. Liu Chuan was so frightened that he quickly raised his hands.

, didn't dare to move anymore, he knew that although this little guy wouldn't really bite him, but if he tore his pants again, he would be really shameless in front of others.

"What's going on?" Zhuang Rui came to his senses, called the white lion into his arms and comforted him before looking at Liu Chuan.

"Brother, let me tell you, there is no chance for us two brothers tonight." Liu Chuan leaned over and whispered in Zhuang Rui's ear.

"No chance? No chance?" Zhuang Rui was a little confused and his voice was raised a few degrees.

"Please keep your voice down. I said there's no chance. They are going back after dinner and shopping for a while. They have to decorate the exhibition hall all night. Tomorrow is the day when they will participate in the jewelry display."

Liu Chuan was a little frustrated. He originally went to the hotel to have sex with Leilei, but after getting the news just now, this guy immediately changed from a Viagra to a wimp.

After hearing Liu Chuan's words, Zhuang Rui couldn't help but feel dumbfounded. Although he had also dreamed about having some super-friendship relationship with Qin Xuanbing, in reality, the two of them had never even held hands a few times, so he didn't dare.

I hope it will develop to the point of opening a room so quickly.

"Let's go have a meal. After dinner, go to the Confucius Temple for a walk. I don't have any money now. Let's try our luck and see if we can find something good."

Zhuang Rui stood up and kicked Liu Chuan's butt, but Liu Chuan accidentally knocked him to the ground. The two of them rolled on the grass. They were used to playing with each other since they were young, but just watching

The little white lion beside him couldn't help but growl, but he didn't dare to bite. Lei Lei and Qin Xuanbing looked on and laughed.

From the tricks he often played when he was a child, Zhuang Rui felt a touch of intimacy. Although he was rich now, his life was still as usual, and his friends remained the same. Not only Liu Chuan, but also the boss in Zhonghai, including those who had been scattered to various places in the country.

The same goes for the local brothers.

Patting the green grass stained on their bodies, a few people walked towards the nearest boat shop. On the Qinhuai River, there were no less than a hundred boat shops, large and small, some of which were specially designed to take tourists on night tours of the Qinhuai River, and some,

But it is a dock restaurant. According to the needs of the guests, the boat can be sailed to the middle of the river or docked on the shore. The business is very good. There are about twenty tables in one boat, and they are basically full of guests. In some places

There are even performances to watch on the boat.

At this time, lights were lit on both sides of the Qinhuai River. The lighting design of the ship that Zhuang Rui and the others boarded was very clever. Among the antique lamps, the light inside was like a burning candle, illuminating the entire ship.

The lights are bright.

The tables in the cabin were already filled with 70% to 80% of the guests. Zhuang Rui and others chose a table by the window and sat down. They looked at the boat, the sound of oars and the shadows of lights. If there were more singers dancing, it would be even more exciting.

It has the flavor of "the area of ​​smoke and moon in the Six Dynasties, where gold powder gathers".

On the boat, of course, you have to eat fish to enjoy the scenery. Liu Chuan ordered a big-headed silver carp, one fish and three dishes, which is one fish made into three dishes, the fish head with tofu, ham slices, coriander stew, and the fish tail.

After marinating with a little salt and cooking wine, put it into a pan and fry it. The fish body will naturally be made into sweet and sour fish cubes. This way of eating is very popular in Su Beibei. Zhuang Rui and Liu Chuan also used it when they were in Pengcheng.

I often eat like this.

In addition, Zhuang Rui ordered some Jinling snacks for the two girls, such as duck fat crispy pancakes, beef pot stickers, etc., which are among the eight specialties of Qinhuai. Although they are not the most authentic, they are also difficult to eat in other places.

It didn't take long for the dishes ordered by several people to be served. The fish soup looked milky white and thick, and tasted extremely delicious after a sip. The sweet and sour fish cubes were crispy, sweet and sour, fragrant and delicious. Zhuang Rui wanted to have a small one.

In the bowl, he picked out the fish bones and mixed them with the fish meat. He put them at his feet for the white lion to eat. His behavior made the guests at the tables next to him look at him with some suspicion, but Liu Chuan, a man with the appearance of an ancient evil, was there.

, but no one came to find trouble.

After eating and drinking, when Liu Chuan finished paying the bill, Zhuang Rui stood up and said to the two girls: "Xuan Bing, let's go to the antique street of Confucius Temple. Are you in a hurry to go back?"

Qin Xuanbing was slightly annoyed and rolled her eyes at Zhuang Rui. On such a beautiful day, she would not go for a walk by the river with her, but would go to a crowded place. But she didn't know that Zhuang Rui had already heard of the name of Confucius Temple.

This time I went really full of energy and prepared to pick up a few big leaks.
