Several dishes were put on the table, but everyone's discussion point was still on the changes in the village.
"Let me tell you, there should be more tourists when the terraced rice is golden. Last time when the rice here was ripe, we hadn't officially launched this scenic spot. Just relying on Chen Xing's promotion, hundreds of people came to visit every day. Next year
We should prepare early when the rice is ripe."
"Well, the terraced fields are one of the most unique scenery here, but I'm afraid that when tourism really takes off in the future, few people will be willing to farm."
Hearing what Chen Xing said, Song Xingwen quickly shook his head.
“ Chen
If the land is idle, people might scold you."
Chen Xing shrugged.
Eat vegetables.
Today's dishes are richer than the last time I came here, but there is still fried moss on the table.
Chen Xing searched on the Internet and found that this is a famous dish of the Dai people.
Nowadays, many Dai people no longer cook or eat it, but the conditions here in Chunman Village are very good, with constantly flowing mountain spring water and clean moss, so this dish has been passed down.
Song Xingwen and Song Shulan obviously never told their mother that Chen Xing didn't like this dish, and now they still want to laugh at him.
So I picked up a piece with chopsticks and put it in Chen Xing's bowl.
"You've had a hard journey all the way. It's quite troublesome to get here from Guizhou, right? Eat more."
Zhou Peng also gave Chen Xing a slice and said, "Yes, yes."
Ah.
Chen Xing ate without changing his expression and praised loudly.
I just complain and complain, do you really think I don’t dare to eat?
In fact, this dish has no taste. The base flavor is just the taste of grass. Many grasses have a dry taste, while moss does not have such a dry feeling, but almost all the taste comes from the seasoning on it. The seasoning is good.
Okay, what's not delicious?
Most of the reason for eating it is the taste.
Besides, I'm not afraid of getting a bad stomach. Are you afraid?
Zhou Peng sighed upon seeing this.
Not interesting.
Chen Xing looked at his two friends proudly and thought to himself that he wanted to tease me and try something new.
He suddenly felt that he could travel to India. Their history there is also very long. After all, it is one of the four ancient countries. And the most important thing is that Chen Xing is not afraid of eating their food.
Many times, Chinese people will have diarrhea after eating authentic Indian food. In fact, this cannot be entirely blamed on the ingredients and production techniques. The biggest culprit is the four words acclimatization. According to modern terms, it means that the human intestines and stomach lack of local food.
of bacterial flora.
Just like many people will have diarrhea when drinking milk.
But as long as you keep drinking for a while, you will naturally get used to it.
Chen Xing thought of Yang Xiu and asked, "How is Yang Xiu doing now?"
Zhou Peng ate the food and said, "Don't worry, your little sister is fine now, but she doesn't like to go out to play as much as she did before in high school. During the summer vacation, she ran outside every day and always asked me when you could come.
Are you going to see her later?"
Chen Xing thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "Forget it, we are leaving soon. I'm afraid I will be even more sad when I see her. Xingwen, when the express delivery resumes after the new year, I will send her something.
Then help me get it to her."
The two of them will drive away immediately after eating. If everything goes well, they will be home in the evening.
Time is so tight, there is no time to do anything to visit relatives and friends.
"what?"
"A camera. I told her I gave it to her when she was in high school. I don't have time to teach her how to take pictures. Let her figure it out on her own."
"No problem." Song Xingwen agreed readily.
………………
Around noon, it starts to rain here in Chunman. The rain is not heavy. People in the southwest like to use a redundant word to call it drizzle.
Chen Xing and the others were still sitting down when they were about to leave.
Zhou Peng found his car at the entrance of the village. He went up and turned on the air conditioner. Then he came down and said politely to Song Xingwen: "Don't let it go. You can take it back and eat it yourself. I have brought a lot of specialties. There are enough."
"It's not just for you. Chen Xing also has a portion, ham, sausages, etc. I use two bags. Remember to take them when you get off the car."
Chen Xing thanked him repeatedly.
Zhou Peng really didn't want it. He had enough local products in his car, including dried sweet potatoes, boiled peanuts, bacon, dried mushrooms given by others...
He has lived here for such a long time, and he has a lot of things just given by others.
I don’t cook much, and eat in the canteen every day, so these things accumulate more and more.
In the end, they didn't stop them. Song Xingwen and Song Shulan forcibly put the things in the back seat of the car. The trunk couldn't fit them. After all, they were just ordinary cars, not off-road vehicles or SUVs.
Chen Xing fastened his seat belt on the passenger seat, and the two of them waved to Song Shulan outside the window.
"Bye-Bye."
After chatting for a while, Zhou Peng drove the car slowly out of the village.
He sighed and said, "Why are you still a little reluctant to let go?"
"You will always have feelings after living here for more than half a year."
"That's right, the house you live here is big, the air is good, the girl is pretty, and the land in front of the house is your yard by default. I even planted some flowers. Alas, I may not live here anymore.
Already."
The inside of the village was fine. All the buildings at the entrance of the village were built bit by bit by Zhou Peng. When he first came here, he could only stay in Song Xingwen's house. Slowly, the visitor center was repaired, and he
Just move into the visitor center, then build a hotel and a canteen...
Zhou Peng drove the car and looked at Song Xingwen in the rearview mirror who was still waving, and said with a smile: "He will be the only one watching here after we leave."
Chen Xing played with his mobile phone and said, "Why, you are still not proficient in business after such a long time?"
"Almost, there's nothing to get familiar with." Zhou Peng also told Chen Xing about the current situation of the company, "Now we mainly take on some group buying customers, and there are more of them like group building for some companies. We are not busy at ordinary times.
, Just cooperate well with the hotel and canteen."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chen Xing has achieved his goal and said impatiently: "As long as you don't lose money, don't tell me this, it gives me a headache."
"Hey! You're such a cool hands-off shopkeeper."
Zhou Peng rolled his eyes and began to talk about his life in the village this year.
This trip back to his hometown in the New Territories required at least eight hours of continuous driving. Zhou Peng was always bored and worried that he would get sleepy, so he tried every means to prevent Chen Xing from sleeping.
There were only two people in the car, so he had to find someone to chat with.
Chirping along the way, the car soon left the rainy area, and the whole sky became brighter. This made Zhou Peng feel a lot better, but this good mood disappeared immediately after getting on the highway.
There's a traffic jam.
It's not an ordinary traffic jam. After they got on the expressway from the toll station, they were blocked before merging from the auxiliary road to the main road of the expressway. They drove forward alternately with the cars on the main road next to them, and then stopped and stopped after merging.
Stopped, it took half an hour to move a few kilometers.
"Fuck!" Zhou Peng couldn't bear it anymore and slapped the steering wheel hard.
He has an anxious personality to begin with, but now he is even more anxious when he is stuck in a traffic jam. He keeps making little moves in the car, either suddenly cursing or honking the horn.
Chen Xing was a little sleepy at first. After all, he took the bus all the way to Chunman Village this morning, but he is not sleepy now.
"Are you really afraid of road rage?"
"That's a lot!" Zhou Peng subconsciously cursed back, then laughed, "I'm just in a hurry, brake and accelerator, MMP, I'm really annoyed to death."
Chen Xing also laughed a few times.
"How about I come and help you drive it later?"
"you?"
Zhou Peng's eyes were suspicious, "When did you learn to drive?"
"I always know how to do it, but I just don't dare to drive it. This time I went abroad and drove their car for a while, and it will be fine once I get a feel for it."
Zhou Peng didn't care whether Chen Xing's skills were good or not, and said quickly: "Then it's settled, I will drive one section and you will drive another section. Oh, this is great. The workload has been reduced by half. It feels like a relief."
Chen Xing actually wants to help him open it now.
He acquired the vehicle driving skill some time ago, but he hasn't really used it yet.
The highway they took at the beginning of the road they took was called the 'Rongcheng-Lijiang Expressway', or Rongli Expressway for short. This section of road is considered the most important road from southern Yunnan into Sichuan Province. Not to mention that when the Spring Festival comes, there are
There are so many traffic jams, and they are not the worst. When the traffic jam is so frustrating, you can still look at the opposite lane, and that is called being motionless.
"If we leave at night, will there be fewer cars?" Zhou Peng said.
Now he would rather stay up late and drive than be stuck on the highway, which is too uncomfortable.
"Do you think you are the only one who is smart? No matter if we set out in the middle of the night or in the morning, there will always be a lot of people."
After driving for three hours, Zhou Peng couldn't bear it anymore.
"You can drive the service area in front of me. I'll take a rest first. My waist really can't bear it."
"Are you looking for a girlfriend in Chunman Village?"
"roll."
Zhou Peng drove the car into the service area.
It was also the first time for Chen Xing to see so many cars in the service area of the expressway. He had to circle the parking lot several times to find a parking space.
As soon as the car stopped, Zhou Peng immediately got out of the car and stretched his body. It looked like he really had back pain.
Chen Xing rubbed his hands and got into the driver's seat.
We can also drive.
As soon as his hands touched the steering wheel, Chen Xing suddenly felt a sense of familiarity with the vehicle, as if he had driven Zhou Peng's car for hundreds of kilometers before.
"Get in the car and let's go." Chen Xing said excitedly.
"Let me take a break. Why are you urging me?"
Zhou Peng said this, but quickly got into the car.
The roar of the engine was extremely pleasant to Chen Xing's ears. The discomfort of motion sickness after three hours of stop-and-go traffic also disappeared. He lightly stepped on the accelerator and the vehicle drove forward.
From the perspective of the co-pilot, the car driven by Chen Xing is very stable.
Zhou Peng was completely relieved.
With Chen Xing’s current skills, it’s no problem to drive a rally or F1. It’s certainly safe to drive a car. However, Chen Xing’s driving skills will not allow him to drive faster on the highway during holidays. He still has to stop when he needs to.
stop.
This traffic jam eased somewhat after getting onto the Beijing-Zhaoji Expressway.
After about eight hours of driving, they originally planned to arrive home at eight o'clock in the evening, but it was already eight o'clock and they were still halfway there.
Fortunately, the traffic is not that big now. If everything goes well, we should be home at 11 o'clock.
Their lane is heading towards Sichuan East, and the traffic volume is not as large as the opposite lane. During the day, you can only see rows of waiting cars. Now at night, when everyone's car lights are turned on, the angle of view is occasionally
When you look that way, you will find that the car lights on the opposite side have gathered into a long queue.
The ancients said there was a lot of traffic. This may have been an exaggeration in ancient times, but in modern times it is very realistic.
In fact, at this time, if your home is still far away, you can find an exit to get off, and then find a hotel to have a good sleep. This way, there will be fewer cars on the highway and the route will naturally be smoother.
But very few people do this.
It’s the twenty-eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, and tomorrow will be the twenty-ninth. All the people who are still on the highway are eager to return home, and they have to go home no matter how late they are. Not to mention them, this is basically the case on highways across the country today.
Sichuan Province is pretty good, at least there haven't been any accidents.
There are already too many cars, and if two cars collide and block one or two lanes, it will take a lot of time to clear the route.
Such an accident happened in Shandong in the afternoon.
There was no accident with the car, but a landslide on a section of the road blocked a section of the road and several cars.
The good news is that everyone is fine, only two people suffered minor injuries. The key is that the emergency lane was blocked by some smart people. It took the relevant units a long time to clear the route, which delayed the rescue time for a long time.
Car owners who had been hungry for several hours gathered around the roadside chatting.
"I heard that a large truck overturned. How could you drive a truck like this if it could overturn in such a traffic jam?"
"It was a mudslide, a mudslide, not a car overturned."
"There's nothing we can do about it, it's a natural or man-made disaster."
“I don’t know when it will be opened to traffic.”
In the distance, there are people playing badminton having fun in their misery.
Although it's dark, all the cars here have their lights on, so it's definitely no problem to shine them on people playing badminton. If you look closely, there are people playing chess, and there are quite a few military advisors around them. Everyone is copying their hands.
You will help me with your reference sentence by sentence.
At this time, a large group of motorcades passed by in the emergency lane and then stopped on the highway.
The car door opened, and a man wearing a chef's hat got out of the car carrying a barbecue grill and a lot of ingredients.
What is this for?
The car owners who were stuck here and couldn't go anywhere were puzzled. Could it be that the nearby restaurant knew that tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of people were stuck on the highway and had no food to eat, so they expanded their business on the highway? Oh, this is too much.
I know how to do business, but I don’t know if the price is expensive.
At this time a voice came from the big speaker in front.
"Dear passengers stranded here, the road ahead will be opened in about two hours. Our rescue is too slow. I'm sorry for everyone. I only apologize to everyone on behalf of this city. Please have a meal with us.
The special barbecue, the road should be cleared after eating, I wish everyone a happy Spring Festival..."
After the voice finished speaking, the car owners looked at each other in shock.
