C350 He Was Unfamiliar with the Place
"Sure, let's go together when the train arrives. Speaking of which, I still have to thank you. If it weren't for you just now, I would have been cheated of 1,000 yuan." When Xiaomei thought of this, she said angrily," I really didn't expect Brother Daniu to be so bad. He's also a citizen of Tan Fang Town. My hometown is just a little bit away from Xu Fang Village. Speaking of which, I am still from the same hometown. He even cheated money from his hometown. It's really not something. "
"Hehe, don't blame him. It's not easy to make a living out there. If there's a need to forgive someone, then forget about it. " Although Fann Binn felt that it was not a good thing to be a liar, it was not to the extent of hurting other people's minds. At most, it was just a scam of some money, and it wasn't very serious.
Xiaomei heard Fann Binn's words and nodded with a smile. Since the two of them got off the car at the same station and were going to the same village, so Xiaomei took the initiative to invite Fann Binn to sit beside her. Fann Binn thought for a while and agreed. With a companion, they could gradually get familiar with each other and spend the boring time in this dirty carriage. Soon, Fann Binn and Xiaomei had a general understanding of each other.
Xiaomei's name was Xu Xiaomei. It turned out that everyone in the village had the surname Xu. Except for those who had married into the village. Xu Xiaomei was a textile worker working in Guangdong Province. She had been away for a year. She had stayed in the factory for the New Year because she worked overtime and had doubled her salary. It was not until today that she finally had time to go home. Fann Binn actually admired this hard-working girl.
In his heart, everyone in this country should not discriminate and look down on agricultural workers and working girls. If they did not work so hard, how could they have the current happy life and powerful national power? In fact, what should be respected the most was that they had the lowest requirement of treatment. However, the children of the peasants who did the most bitter and tiring work, without them... Who could imagine what the city would look like?
Fann Binn only briefly introduced him, but he didn't mention his relationship with Hsu Rann, nor did he mention his family situation and financial situation. To him, this had nothing to do with Xu Xiaomei.
The two of them chatted on the train. Seven hours of travel had unknowingly come to an end. The moment Xu Xiaomei and Fann Binn got off the train, Fann Binn suddenly felt as if a fish had entered the sea. It had to be said that the green carriage was too sullen! At this moment, Fann Binn suddenly thought of whether he should use the future technology in his mind. To improve the lives of the people in the lower country? For example, this kind of slow train could be completely eliminated by the train crew. Although there were already train groups in the country, they were all imported overseas. If he sold the technology of the train group to the country, it would probably greatly improve the domestic railway operating situation, right?
"Fann Binn, what are you thinking about? I'm leaving." Xu Xiaomei saw that Fann Binn was a little absent-minded after he got off the train. She couldn't help but shake her hand in front of him. She smiled and said, "Distracted? Do you think this train station is so old and shabby?"
Fann Binn woke up from the disturbance caused by Xu Xiaomei. Only then did he look around. It had to be said that this train station, which had been built since the beginning of the 60s, was indeed old and worn out. Some of the earth walls had even collapsed and looked very dilapidated. However, the small station was just a small station, and there was no need to undergo any modern modifications. There were not many people who got off the train. After all, it was a county-level train station. As long as it was enough.
"Let's go. Are we going to take a bus to the bus station?" Fann Binn smiled and took the lead to walk towards the exit. Xu Xiaomei followed him closely and nodded. “ That's right. Huang Yi was not a place with a more developed economy. The bus station is not far from the train station, just follow me in a while."
Since Xu Xiaomei gave the order, Fann Binn naturally listened to her. Who asked him to be unfamiliar with this place?
Walking out of the shabby train station, Fann Binn and Xu Xiaomei, who were shuttling through the bustling crowd, walked to the bus station on foot. As West River Province had recently encountered cold air, the snow accumulated here was rather thick. It was a vast expanse of white everywhere. Fann Binn only saw this spectacular scene when he left the train station. He could not help but feel that it was a spectacular scene of dancing silver snakes.
If the scenery in the south was said to be a small family's jade, then the north was undoubtedly heroic and grand. Huang Yi was a poor county. Of course, this poverty was on a completely different level from the poverty in Fann Binn's hometown, Ping'an County. The poverty and decline in the inland provinces and the coastal provinces were completely different. When Fann Binn saw the yellow bread and three passenger carriages that had disappeared in Ping'an County for nearly eight years, he suddenly felt like he had returned to the streets of Ping'an County when he was young.
Of course, all of this was just an illusion. Fann Binn was not stupid enough to believe it. While Xu Xiaomei was bargaining with a tricycle, he was observing the small town in the north that was completely different from the south. It seemed that last year, in this place called Huang Yi, there was a national famous case of house demolition and self-destruction. At that time, it was a hot topic, and it was precisely because of this that... It was because of this that Fann Binn felt so familiar with this place after Hsu Rann told him about it.
After waiting for a few minutes or so, when Xu Xiaomei finally reached an agreement with the tricycle owner, she called Fann Binn to board this shabby tricycle. She didn't know if it would fall apart halfway.
"Driver, do you know that a car going to Tan Fang Town can buy a ticket outside the bus station?" Xu Xiaomei asked the driver who was driving the tricycle and spoke in an earthy voice.
The driver smoked a cigarette and looked at Xu Xiaomei. "Hey, girl, I saw that you took your boyfriend out to work and came home to take a look. Why do you care about these two money? You don't necessarily have to park when you wait for a car outside. It's very good to check cars now. "
Fann Binn seemed to have vaguely understood what the two of them were saying. It seemed like they were trying to say that Xu Xiaomei wanted to wait for the car outside. It was to escape the station's tax. However, the driver said that the private passenger of the bus was being strictly investigated. There might not be a car that dared to stop.
Sometimes, it was really funny to think about it. The shares and the value of the property in Fann Binn's hands... It was growing rapidly almost every day. This billionaire really did not expect it. He would one day run to the bus station and wait for the bus to save some money. This kind of thing happened to him.
He immediately smiled and shook his head at Xu Xiaomei. "Well, Xiaomei, let's go to the bus station to buy tickets. It's fine, I'll pay for it."
Xu Xiaomei felt a little embarrassed when she saw how generous Fann Binn was. " Fann Binn, it's not easy for everyone, and I'm not a petty person either. I just want to save some. I don't want to waste money. Since you want to get on the train, go inside and buy a ticket. I'll pay for the ticket. You helped me so much on the train just now. I haven't thanked you yet."
"Don't. It's the best way to repay you for being my tour guide." Fann Binn smiled and waved at her. What a joke. He, Fann Binn, really did not have the habit of letting girls treat him to pay.
"Tour guide? What tour guide?" Xu Xiaomei didn't seem to know what the tour guide meant.
"A tour guide is the one who guides tourists. Of course, I'm just making an analogy. Of course, you're not a tour guide. You can only be considered a tour guide." Fann Binn explained with a smile.
"Oh, I see. It's nothing. Anyway, I have to go back to the village. I just want to go with you." Xu Xiaomei grinned. Don't look at how the village worker girl looked like. However, her teeth were especially white. It was a stark contrast to the yellow and dry skin on her face. It was foreseeable that if she lived a comfortable life in the city... She might even become a beauty.
Along the way, what Fann Binn saw was dirty and crude. If Yellow Yi County and Ping'an County City were compared, it was really like the difference between heaven and earth. The appearance of the city reflected the poverty and decline of West River Province. This also made Fann Binn understand the fundamental reason why Hsu Rann wanted to stay in Jiangde.
The bus station and the train station were not far from each other. Not long after, the tricycle sent the two to the train station. After Fann Binn paid the fare, he entered the small and very old bus station.
After buying two tickets to Tan Fang, Xu Xiaomei took the initiative to buy Fann Binn a bottle of drink to quench his thirst. At this time, Fann Binn called Hsu Rann and told her that he had arrived at Huang Yi. He was going to Tan Fang very soon. When Hsu Rann heard him, she immediately told him happily that she would go to Tan Fang Town to pick him up.
After about ten minutes, Fann Binn and Xu Xiaomei carried their luggage and checked the tickets to Tan Fang's minibus. What made Fann Binn speechless was that the minibus could be broken. Even his seat was broken.
There was no other way. There was a way to live in a poor place, so he gritted his teeth and endured it. Fann Binn frowned and sat on the rocking chair. He prayed to get to Tan Fang as soon as possible and meet Hsu Rann.
The minibus didn't drive very quickly, and more and more people got on the bus. From the passengers on the bus, it could be understood that most of the people who went to Tan Fang were workers who came back from all directions for the New Year. In recent years, as the country developed better and better, the labor force also gradually began to move toward the coastal cities. This was the background of the labor tide. So every New Year, transportation became the most troublesome thing for the traffic department.
Seeing the minibus that could not take many people, even the walkway was full of men and women, Fann Binn finally heard the driver start the car and slowly drove out of the bus station.
Fann Binn had once seen a movie called People in the Trail. It was difficult to return home in spring, although Fann Binn's trip was not as exaggerated as the two main characters in the movie. But absolutely the word torture. He only understood after experiencing the spring festival that the majority of the people still lived in dire straits. The development of the country still had a long way to go...
However, not to mention the hardships of the Spring Festival, at least the beautiful paddy scenery outside the window was undoubtedly a beautiful scenery. In the winter, mulberry trees with no leaves and leaves covered the fields and vegetable greenhouses. The land covered in snow and snow was as white as a layer of thick white clothes. It was really beautiful.
The speed of the car was not fast, so Fann Binn asked Xu Xiaomei. The answer he got was that it would take about an hour to get to Tan Fang. Thinking about how he had not slept since he got on the train, Fann Binn leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest as the car shook. The minibus' engine was very noisy, and because of the rough road in the countryside, the shaking undoubtedly made the passengers feel as if they were playing on the bed. It would not be so comfortable if the passengers were seasick.
It was more than one o'clock in the afternoon, and the weather was getting better and better. Even the sun had appeared. When the snow and the sun appeared on this land at the same time, people felt the warmth of the sun in the white world. Fann Binn actually fell asleep in such an environment...
