After Bai Shuo returned to the capital of Shu, he was very sad to hear that Xiao Zhen had cracked such a major case again. However, he was more concerned about who the man behind the scenes was, Brother Li, and what kind of punishment he received. But Xiao Zhen told him
, that Brother Li is also a Chinese. He has been developing in Myanmar and Siam all year round. He is a big local drug lord. He also has a good armed force and has a lot of Chinese blood on his hands. In this case
After the incident, Bai Shuo never showed up again. This operation only caught two of his minions. This big devil was not eliminated, and Bai Shuo felt very angry. But what Bai Shuo didn't expect was that in the future, he
He really had the opportunity to have a fight with this Brother Li, and it also brought some danger to himself.
However, compared to Brother Li, what currently deserves Bai Shuo's attention is the changes in the A-share market. ST Jinjing, which Liang Ying bought before, has been suspended for many days. Before the resumption of trading, major good news was suddenly released. The actual controller of the company
Multiple real estate projects will be injected into the company in the form of private placement. When Liang Ying got the news, she immediately went to Bai Shuo to discuss how to operate it. Bai Shuo just smiled indifferently and said: "How else to operate? Just wait for it to rise."
That’s it.”
As soon as the market opened, the stock hit the daily limit without any suspense. This meant that Bai Shuo and Liang Ying had another 10 million in assets on their books. But it seemed that both of them had become numb. 10 million
It's not enough to cause a slight fluctuation in their emotions.
Liang Ying asked again: "How much are you prepared to sell for this yuan's cost price?"
Bai Shuo thought for a while and said calmly: "Don't be too greedy, just buy it 5 times, and sell it if it's 5 times."
Liang Ying was stunned for a long time: "Five times...it's not greedy."
Bai Shuo looked at the ceiling with a deep expression and patted Liang Ying on the shoulder: "After playing this game, it's almost time to stop. Sooner or later, the crisis in the United States will spread."
Liang Ying also nodded and sighed: "Yes, shouldn't we go to the United States? Liu Shu has been urging us during this time. He can't protect us alone."
Bai Shuo was browsing QQ out of boredom when he saw a message called "steel"
oses" friend sent a photo with the following text: The beauty of my hometown is like a city in the sky. The photo showed a quiet town at night. The town is close to the sea and the scenery is pleasant. More importantly,
Dots of light appeared in the mid-air of the town, as if reflecting the town on the ground. It was as if there was a town in the sky. This sight aroused Bai Shuo's interest. He remembered that this QQ friend used to play QQ Landlord.
I met a netizen when I was a kid. The other person seemed to be a girl who was still in her junior year of college this year. The two of them seemed to be able to talk on QQ before. However, since Bai Shuo had that dream, his life seems to have changed a lot.
, we basically haven’t talked much in this year. Bai Shuo thought that Chen Bing was looking for a place with a special scenery to shoot the MV, and this place seemed to be very good.
Bai Shuo pointed out "steel"
oses" dialog box greeted her. "Hey, beauty, where is this place? It's so beautiful."
The other party almost replied cleverly: "Hey, you are actually willing to talk to me. I thought you would ignore other girls after you got married." Smiley face.
Only then did Bai Shuo remember that it seemed like the last time he met "steel"
oses" chatting with her was to tell her that she was getting married, and she was welcome to visit Shudu when she had time. Then after that, she was busy with the wedding, and almost never used the Internet. After that, her life, thoughts, and memories all changed.
There have been huge changes. If you hadn’t seen the photo by chance, you might have forgotten “steel”.
oses" this netizen.
With a wry smile, Bai Shuo still told "steel"
oses" himself was not married. Under the other party's entanglement, he briefly explained the reasons for not getting married. Unexpectedly, the other party expressed his sympathy happily and said that Bai Shuo's best choice was not to get married so early.
Bai Shuo didn't want to dwell on this issue for too long, so he couldn't wait to ask about the place in the photo. Now "steel"
oses" the conversation started immediately, and she introduced her hometown to Bai Shuo seriously. It turned out that "steel
oses"'s hometown is in a small town called Nanshui Town near the sea in the south of Bagui Province. For some reasons, it has maintained a very ancient style. The people here are relatively conservative in thinking and are relatively resistant to contact with outsiders. For hundreds of years
They are all self-sufficient, "steel"
The "oses" family is one of the few families that has the courage to accept external things. In addition, it also has some status in the town. "Steel"
oses" also insisted on going to school and embarked on a different path from others, becoming the only college student in the town. Although Nanshui Town and the surrounding areas are very closed and backward, the scenery here is very good
, there are blue seas, fine white beaches, ancient villages, and hillsides full of flowers... And there is also a landscape that rarely appears in other places. That is, almost at this time every year, similar towns appear in the sky.
The mysterious light spot of reflection. “steel
oses" called it the City in the Sky, but the locals called it "Muguang", which means "light of the sky." Bai Shuo investigated this phenomenon specifically after a long time, and found that it occasionally appeared in cold plateaus and high latitudes.
It does happen, but it is very rare in places with such a hot climate. This phenomenon is called "warm night lamppost".
Bai Shuo showed great interest, "steel
oses" immediately invited Bai Shuo to come over and have some fun. After a while, this phenomenon will not happen easily. Bai Shuo himself didn't know why, but he actually agreed. "steel
oses" invitation and decided to go to Nanshui Town.
Liang Ying was talking to Bai Shuo about going to the United States in the future, but Bai Shuo suddenly said that he was going to Bagui Province, which almost made Liang Ying foam at the mouth. Bai Shuo smiled and comforted Liang Ying.
: "There is definitely not much room for operation in this stock in a short period of time. As for other things, it is enough for you to operate it alone. It is still too early to go to the United States. Isn't that okay? I also think
Let’s go and investigate, and maybe we can invest in a tourism project there in the future.”
Liang Ying chuckled and said: "You are here to inspect beautiful women, what about inspecting tourism projects?"
After some careful explanations and public relations, Bai Shuo finally started preparations for going out after ensuring that the return trip would not exceed two weeks.
Before going to Nanshui Town, Bai Shuo sent some photos to Chen Bing. Chen Bing was also very interested in this place and asked Bai Shuo to investigate it carefully. She also wanted to experience the original ancient town and see it if she had the chance.
A look at the City in the Sky.
The transportation to Nanshui Town is not convenient. You first need to take a train to Huai'an County, the nearest town there, and then transfer to a minibus for more than 5 hours. Finally, you need to walk for a while. On the way to Nanshui
, Bai Shuo couldn't help but recall the relationship with "steel".
oses” fragments of recognition.
I remember that playing QQ Landlords was popular at that time. Once when I was playing Landlords, I saw a girl with the online name "Charming 99". What's even more strange is that her points happened to be negative 9999. Bai Shuo was at that time
I thought it was interesting, so I took the initiative to add her as a friend and asked her: "Charming 99, you are indeed very charming."
She asked why. Bai Shuo said: "Look at your points. If it's negative 9999, how many games do you have to lose to achieve this effect? 9 is really attractive."
Unexpectedly, instead of being angry, the girl laughed and quickly explained that it was a coincidence. Later she changed her name to "steel"
oses", but Bai Shuo still joked about her, even if she changed her name, she still has the temperament of a tomboy.
I still remember that there was a time when Bai Shuo and "steel"
oses" talked about everything, and even talked about personal relationship issues. Every time Bai Shuo asked her why she didn't have a boyfriend, she always said that she was ugly and no one dared to have one. For this reason, Bai Shuo even jokingly asked her to go
The capital of Shu, said he wanted it. "steel
oses" also half-jokingly said that she would consider it. But the next day, she solemnly told Bai Shuo that she still would not go to Shudu. She was reluctant to leave her hometown and her mother. The serious atmosphere at that time was really
Bai Shuo was a little at a loss.
After getting off the minibus, Bai Shuo asked for directions and walked for more than an hour. Finally, he arrived at Nanshui Town. His first impression was that compared with the depression everywhere before, this was a large place with a concentrated population and an ancient atmosphere.
As soon as you walk in, you will immediately see an elegant and leisurely ancient water town. It does not seem to be the backwaters you imagined. There are streams crisscrossing the place, and ancient houses are scattered among them. The simple and elegant landscape makes the carriages and horses that have been driving for several days
I suddenly felt a lot more relaxed after being tired.
However, Bai Shuo feels that the July season may not be the best time here, because the sun in this season will not leave a trace of kindness to the people who come here. The sun is burning everything on the ground like fire, watching
In the bluestone alley, there are frowning pedestrians and an old man sitting at the door waving cattail leaf fan, who seems to have taken a breath. At the wonton stall at the intersection beside the stone bridge, there are delicious and sweaty diners, and even
The weeping willows and flowers and plants beside the river were all soaked in the unbearably hot and humid air, and they seemed to be scorching in the heat wave. This hot weather naturally made Bai Shuo's mood and body unhappy.
But Bai Shuo has never been "steel" before.
From the description of "oses", you can also imagine that if it is the crisp autumn season or the drizzle in spring, this small town is shrouded in a gauze-like mist, and there are hazy clouds on the river.
The boat passed by silently, and the ancient houses with white walls and blue tiles were scattered and stretched continuously. They stood quietly in the wind and rain, allowing the world to change for thousands of years. On the stone bridge in the distance, there were flowers.
The blooming red or green umbrellas floated by like the wind, seeming to be the vivid and bright finishing touch in the gray and white renderings of Chinese paintings. Suddenly, the scenery became a scene again.
"Sir, do you need accommodation?" The words of a thin middle-aged man brought Bai Shuo back from his thoughts. "We are the only hotel in this town. We still have two rooms. If we don't stay here, we will lose them."
The middle-aged man said cheerfully.
Bai Shuo thought about settling down first before contacting "steel"
oses", he nodded and followed the man down an alley and came to an inn called "Linshui Renjia" near the water. The inn was simple and elegant, with some Hakka customs. Walking into the inn
I felt a refreshing and peaceful feeling. The boss was a middle-aged woman. She greeted her warmly and helped her with her luggage (actually Bai Shuo only had a backpack and didn’t bring anything) and also introduced her to the inn.
Compared with other hotels, Bai Shuo realized that this was not the only inn that the middle-aged man mentioned. However, Bai Shuo heard that this place was relatively exclusive, so he cautiously asked about the price. The accommodation price was not expensive.
, it only cost about 50 yuan a night. Seeing that Bai Shuo showed no objection, the boss was already talking and quickly moved the things into a room.
After settling in, Bai Shuo found that although the place was simple, it was still clean. But the most unbearable thing was that there was no air conditioning in the room. If it weren't for an electric fan, Bai Shuo would even doubt whether there was electricity. But the temperature inside the room
It seemed very cool compared to the outside. When the fan started spinning quickly, Bai Shuo slowly started to feel a little more comfortable. When he opened the window, he saw the clear river in front of him, and the sunlight didn't feel so annoying.
The clear light slowly shines on this thousand-year-old ancient town, giving off a breath of history. Close your eyes and take a deep breath. It seems that as soon as your eyes open and close, the vicissitudes of the world for thousands of years will swim through your body. On both sides of the strait are a row of simple ethnic groups.
Thousands of years of wind and rain have dented the stone walls of the characteristic houses, but the Ming and Qing style architectural complex here is quite well preserved. The same black tile roofs and gray and white stone walls are built along the river and stand beside the river.
One body, endlessly winding, far and long. The antique houses beside the river, with long corridors and sheds, overlapping black and gray spaces, and leisurely rowing boats, seem to have an ancient style.
At this time, Bai Shuo remembered that he had promised to contact "steel" when he arrived in Nanshui Town.
oses" agreement. I took out my mobile phone and found a phone number. The name on the number was Xue Manlin. This was after I decided to come, "steel
oses" before telling Bai Shuo his real name. After pressing the dial button a few times, a sweet voice called out: "Why did it take you so long to call me? Did you just get off the train?"
When Bai Shuo explained that he had arrived in Nanshui Town, she said in surprise: "Hey! Where are you?"
Bai Shuo thought Xue Manlin didn't hear clearly, so he repeated, "Nanshui Town? Didn't I tell you before?"
"No, where is Nanshui? Be precise."
Oh my God, Bai Shuo thought to himself as a foreigner, how could he know the exact location here? "See if there is anything special next to you?" Xue Manlin prompted.
"Well, there is a river," Bai Shuo said stupidly.
"Go away, there are rivers everywhere in Nanshui. Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid?"
Bai Shuo giggled a few times, suddenly woke up, and said hurriedly: "I'm at an inn, it seems to be called Linshui Inn...".
"You live in Linshui, right? Then leave the inn and wait for me on the Yanyu Covered Bridge."
"Yes, yes, it's Linshui's house, Yanyu Covered Bridge? Where is it? Go out now? Where are you? It's very close?"
Faced with so many questions raised by Bai Shuo, Xue Manlin raised her voice by 8 degrees: "Ah...! Are you annoyed? Just do whatever I tell you to do. The Yanyu Corridor Bridge is the long, long bridge across the river from the inn.
Go to the long promenade along the river, and when you get there, just stand there and don't move."
Bai Shuo wanted to ask something, but he heard the phone had been hung up. However, he walked out of the inn honestly according to the instructions and walked towards the corridor. Suddenly he thought that this was his first time meeting and dating a netizen, and he felt something in his heart.
