After attending the class reunion, he stayed one night in Dongyang. The next day, Zhou Yan took Qin Ruoshu and set off to attend Zuo Jiyun's wedding in Hetao.
There is an airport in Hetao, so Zhou Yan's plane can fly directly to Hetao from Xinhai.
These days, private jets are only associated with big names. As soon as the Falcon business jet with the Xinghan Group logo landed on the ground, it became the most beautiful one.
Lin Yong, the northwest area manager of Anxin Mall who came to pick him up, is mainly responsible for the operation of the green food industry chain in Ningxia, Suiyuan, Shaanxi-Gansu and other regions.
In their junior year, Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu went to Yinchuan Town to visit the "Taoist Descending the Mountain" class. It was Lin Yong who hosted them, and Lin Yong was responsible for the Qilian Mountain series wines operated by Anxin Mall in Ningxia, so Zhou Yan had no regard for Lin Yong.
strangeness.
However, Zhou Yan was a little surprised that Lin Yong came to pick him up at the airport. After all, the Ningyuan area is based in Yinchuan.
Although he was a little curious, Zhou Yan didn't ask any more questions. After putting their luggage in the trunk, they got in the car.
After leaving the airport, Lin Yong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around and said, "Mr. Zhou, I came here from Ningxia on a special trip!"
Is this something wrong?
"That's what happened. There will be a desert potato project here in Hetao in the next year, which is being launched." Lin Yong smiled, "This project has a public welfare nature, and Mr. Chu just plans to test the water..."
After hearing what Lin Yong said, Zhou Yan was immediately happy: "I came here to attend a classmate's wedding, it was just a coincidence!"
Lin Yong just breathed a sigh of relief and glanced at the rearview mirror unintentionally, only to find that the corners of Zhou Yan's mouth were raised...
Lin Yong thought: It’s broken!
"Since it's a coincidence, after attending the wedding, I'll go and see it with you. By the way, my wife can also experience the desolation of the northwest..."
In fact, you don’t have to look for it, the desolation in the northwest is everywhere.
As soon as we came out of the airport, a blank scene appeared in everyone's eyes.
Secondly, the desolation is everywhere. The most worrying thing is that every not far away, there will be a saline-alkali depression: in the season of abundant rain, those places are full of puddles.
Of course, the most distinctive feature of the Hetao area is the vast swaths of sunflowers. If it is placed in the golden autumn, the city will naturally be covered with golden sunflowers. But in winter, they will turn into straight sunflower poles, piercing the sky.
After walking for a while, Lin Yong saw that the atmosphere in the car was a bit awkward, so he took the initiative to adjust the atmosphere: "Mr. Zhou, the sunflower seeds and watermelon seeds from Anxin Mall originate from here. Recently, the company is producing more oil sunflower seeds..."
Zhou Yan glanced at the tall sunflower poles in the field: "The natural gas resources here in the Hetao should be relatively abundant, right?"
Lin Yong naturally knew that Zhou Yan was not asking about natural gas, but about the use of sunflower poles: "Here in the Hetao, they are usually buried in the soil during deep plowing, or they are pulled out directly and thrown on the edge of the field, leaving them alone.
The stems rot..."
"In this case," Zhou Yan thought for a moment, "let Anxin Mall cooperate with Qingyan to develop some more practical agricultural machinery."
Another striking feature near residential areas in the northwest region is the protective forest lined every few hundred meters: towering poplars, standing still in the biting cold wind...
The car drove along the sparsely populated national highway for more than 40 minutes and finally entered the city.
"Mr. Zhou, the conditions are limited, I feel aggrieved!"
If Zhou Yan hadn't heard Zuo Jiyun talk about the Hetao Hotel in front of him, he would have really thought that the conditions were limited. He smiled and shook his head: "A five-star hotel is already luxurious enough..."
"Why did I forget..." Lin Yong pretended to be "regretful".
"Okay, don't you feel embarrassed to act in front of your own people?"
After completing the check-in formalities, it was almost past eleven o'clock...
"Mr. Zhou, how about I invite you..."
"No need," Zhou Yan smiled at Lin Yong, "Just leave me a car and we can go out to eat by ourselves!"
"Then I won't disturb you anymore..." Lin Yong asked the driver for the key to the Sheephead SUV and handed it to Zhou Yan, "Mr. Zhou, if you need to support the show, I can borrow it from the partner here.
A Benz!”
"No need! I'm here to attend the wedding..."
At noon, Zhou Yan and Qin Ruoshu walked around the neighborhood and made up for a hot pot meal. They returned to the hotel and were about to take a rest when the phone rang...
"Lao Zhou, I have arrived at the Hetao Railway Station, where have you been?"
"I've already settled in," Zhou Yan looked back at Qin Ruoshu, who was staring at him curiously, and whispered, "Zhao Ruijie..."
"Do you need me to pick you up?"
"Okay, how did you come here?"
"Driving, of course!"
As soon as he picked up Zhao Ruijie at the train station, Lin Junfeng's call also arrived: "I'm already here, where are you?"
In the afternoon, Yang Haisheng, He Qiulin and Yan Wentao from the dormitory arrived one after another.
After a short reunion, laughter continued in the hotel corridor arranged by Zuo Jiyun.
In the evening, Zuo Jiyun invited a group of friends to have a meal in the hotel, catch the wind and wash away the dust, and make arrangements for the wedding the next day.
In order to set off himself, classmate Lao Zuo was more "evil" when selecting his groomsmen: no one who was more handsome than him, and no one who was taller than him.
In the end, Zhou Yan, Yan Wentao and Zhao Ruijie only had the identity of being handymen...
After arranging the work for the next day, Lao Zuo looked around happily: "Do you have any questions?"
"Yes!" Yan Wentao raised his hand with a smile, "Lao Zuo, your high school female classmate named Wang..."
"Wang Xuening!"
As soon as Lin Junfeng opened his mouth, the friends around him cast surprised looks: They all have nine years of compulsory education, why are you the only one so good?
"You old hooligans, you have a lustful heart but no lustful courage..."
"Okay!" Zuo Jiyun glanced at Qin Ruoshu, who was sitting next to Zhou Yan and snickering, "Look at Zhou Yan, and then look at you..."
"You are a well-fed man but you don't know a hungry man is hungry!" He Qiulin hit the nail on the head.
"You have no hope. I already have a boyfriend and have started talking about marriage..."
There should be heartbreaking sounds here and now.
"By the way," Zuo Jiyun suddenly turned around and looked at Zhou Yan with gloating, "Old Zhou, when will you get married?"
"It's very fast," Zhou Yan's eyes were full of inexplicable smiles, "However, no matter how fast it is, it will have to be after the next generation comes. No one knows how unexpected things can happen so quickly..."
"Haha..." Everyone present laughed.
"Come on, let's get wet together. Go back to bed. We have to get up early tomorrow..."
After dinner, a group of people left the hotel laughing and noisy, leaving a long string of happy shadows under the light of the festive red lanterns.
"Old Zhou, this old Zuo has quite a wide range of social contacts..."
"We all met when we were playing football," Zhou Yan smiled and looked back at Lin Junfeng, who was sitting in the back row playing with his clothes, "Old Lin, you will be the best man tomorrow, do you have anything to say?"
"I just want to say one thing," Lin Junfeng shook the unopened suit in his hand, "It's so cold, can I wear a down jacket outside this thing?"
"Probably not!" Zhao Ruijie, who was traveling with him, was a little gloating, "It's rare to have the opportunity to be the best man in life, why don't you seize the opportunity quickly..."
Lin Junfeng rolled his eyes and thrust the suit into Zhao Ruijie's hands: "How about you come?!"
