Bright Spring

The airport is in the south of Suzhou City, while Gaoxu's suburb is in the northeast of the urban area, and the navigation route has to pass through the urban boundary.At this time, the car gradually entered the main city.

The development of the city has a difference in time and level. The central area is a bit old, but the outer area of ​​the main urban area is newer and more magnificent.On both sides of the road the car was driving on, and on both sides of an artificial river, there were skyscrapers and giant buildings. It was probably the central office area of ​​the city, mainly office buildings, big hotels, shopping malls, guild halls, big communities and other large facilities.

The sky is already dark, and it may be raining in Suzhou this afternoon, and the air is foggy.

But in the foggy environment, the majestic buildings appear more shocking, probably because of the unclear far vision, which can stimulate people's imagination more.Even Gao Xu has seen him for a while, and he has also felt this spirit.Reminiscent of a heavenly palace, also like a miracle, the highly developed Mingming changed its restrained style and soared to the sky on an extremely exaggerated scale.

At this time, the music in the car was playing an ancient song called Spring River Flower and Moon Night. After all, Gao Xu's taste was more retro, and he downloaded many such songs.Classical sound and modern vision are integrated into one, without the slightest sense of abruptness, as natural as a seamless one.There is no conflict between grandeur and elegance, and the atmosphere is very good.

The sound of the guzheng has a calm rhythm, and it has a sense of grace against the magnificent night scene, and the melody is very elegant.A female voice came late, and hummed the lyrics, "The tide of the spring river connects with the sea level, and the bright moon on the sea grows together with the tide. The twinkling waves follow the waves for thousands of miles, where the spring river has no moonlight. The river flows around Fangdian, and the moon shines on the flowers The forests are like sleet. Frost flows in the air, but you can’t feel it flying, and you can’t see the white sand on the ground.”

Ruan Ling next to her had already taken out her mobile phone and was taking pictures of the scenery outside the car window.Her eyes were wide open, and the knowledge of this trip may have had a considerable impact on her immature heart.

After a long time, she said, "The song is really nice."

Gao Xu said casually: "The poem was written in the Tang Dynasty more than 1000 years ago."

Ruan Ling asked again: "Is this the capital of the Ming Dynasty?"

Gao Xu shook his head and thought for a while, "The capital is called Jingshi, and it should be hundreds of miles away in the northwest. But this place belongs to Beijing Taicang. At this time, it is probably in the urban area of ​​Jiangnan near Shanghai, and the entire area is very large."

Ruan Ling asked again: "Where is the richest area in Ming Dynasty?"

Gao Xu nodded with a smile and said, "That's right. But there are still a few big cities that are not too far apart. There are no less than ten cities that are bigger than Suzhou. North Zhili Xinjin District, Zhujiang District, Huguang Yanjiang District, Chengdu Chongqing District, all It’s a very large urban area with many large cities and a large population.”

Ruan Ling was surprised when she heard that, she was silent for a while, and then said: "I didn't know that before. But Chongqing is famous in our side, is it considered a rich city in Daming?"

Gao Xu thought of the information he read on the Internet, and he just took it as an example: "The urban area is the most economically developed place in the west. Before industrialization, it was because of the perfect water transportation network. The essence of the industry is all over there.”

Ruan Ling said, "Why?"

Gao Xu said: "Because of the Yuan Dynasty. The decision-makers of the Ming Dynasty believed that Sichuan is the eye of a long dragon, like the exquisiteness of Go, and the depth of the rear. Whenever Huaxia Ming is facing the crisis of subjugation and extinction, Sichuan always resists with the last remaining strength to preserve the entire population. Open fire for a long time."

Ruan Ling was quiet for a while, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Back then, why didn't you take over the entire Annan country?"

Gao Xu was stunned, he couldn't answer this question.But Ruan Ling is just a commoner, her personal thoughts are meaningless.

At that time, Gao Xu did lead troops to occupy it, but he went there himself. Later, he gave up because of various considerations, and supported the Chen dynasty to govern the area.However, the Chen dynasty no longer exists.

Gao Xu was not very clear about what the later rulers of the Ming Dynasty thought. Anyway, no one was going to directly govern them. After the Wude Dynasty, the two countries were generally peaceful.Moreover, the local upper echelon should not be willing to accept the direct rule of Ming Dynasty.

Gao Xu thought for a while and said, "Power is a matter of proportion, and has nothing to do with the overall economy."

Ruan Ling was stunned, obviously not understanding at all.

The car was quiet again, except for the sound of music.Gao Xu continued to look at his phone, and looked up at the road ahead from time to time.

Ruan Ling turned sideways to look at his mobile phone: "What are you playing, brother Ah Gang?"

Gao Xu said: "Try the next software. People on the forum said that it is very cheap to use this software to book a hotel. It is almost possible to find a free hotel."

Ruan Ling shook her head and said, "Then how does the family make money?"

Gao Xu said without raising his head: "It doesn't make money, it burns money. But only at a certain time, there is such a benefit, usually a period of capital expansion of the market and users, and the money burned is equivalent to advertising expenses."

Ruan Ling said: "I understand, everyone will use his software in order to take advantage of it, and more and more people will use it."

Gao Xu smiled and said, "Smart."

Ruan Ling suddenly asked: "Why do you want to visit the hotel, aren't we going home?"

Gao Xu said: "I'll go home, you stay in a hotel. I'll find a good one that's close."

Ruan Ling said softly: "No need?"

Gao Xu said: "My family's conditions are very average, not necessarily better than a hotel."

Ruan Ling shook her head and said, "That's not what I mean, I don't have any money, so I'm sorry to spend your money any more."

Gao Xu said: "It's okay, I'll do my best as a landlord. Besides, I can take advantage of the capitalists for a while, and it won't cost me much."

Then Ruan Ling didn't hear any more responses, and the surroundings became quiet again, but this time the atmosphere was slightly awkward.

Chapter One Thousand and Two

In the silent atmosphere, only the slight tire noise from under the chassis remained.

Xiao Ruan's voice finally broke the silence, "Brother Ah Gang, don't think too far, I won't pester you in the future."

"I didn't mean that." Gao Xu said in astonishment.But when he heard this, he felt that Xiao Ruan was still a smart girl as long as she didn't get involved in complicated matters.

Unexpectedly, she was even more aggrieved: "Then, do you dislike me so much?"

Gao Xu shook his head without hesitation, and then looked at her.This girl is good-looking, with delicate skin and a slender figure. The slender waist that can be easily grasped is pitiful. The best part is still full of youthful vitality.In Gao Xu's eyes, she sometimes plays and jokes, but she is also cute in her own way.When he first met Xiao Ruan, he had a good impression of her.

Sure enough, Xiao Ruan's voice said: "Brother Ah Gang looks at me like this, I don't think you hate me."

Gao Xu said, "Of course."

He let out a long breath, pondered for a while, and finally said calmly: "If people go by feeling alone, there may be troubles, and it's not good for each other."

Xiao Ruan pursed her lips and said unhappily, "You always like to reason."

After a while, she suddenly asked again: "Do you have someone you like?"

Gao Xu was taken aback again, thought for a while before replying: "It's hard to say now."

Xiao Ruan sighed and said, "Okay, I'll go to stay in a hotel. But it's a pity that you have no one to take care of you. I'll help you with some housework, and it's also a reward for Brother Ah Gang."

Gao Xu nodded happily and said: "I won't go to work for the last two days, and I will pick you up at the hotel tomorrow morning. Most hotels have free breakfast, and you will wait for me at your place of residence after breakfast."

When the car arrived at the hotel in the small town in the suburbs, Gao Xu took out some cash from his wallet and handed it to Xiao Ruan.

Xiao Ruan shrank her hands in embarrassment and said, "I can't take it anymore."

Gao Xu said calmly: "What if the money is useful? Annan's money is not used here, so you don't have to change it."

After hearing this, Xiao Ruan smiled, took the money, and looked at him for a while.

Early the next morning, when Gao Xu went to pick up Xiao Ruan, she had already bought food with the money and wanted to cook him lunch.When I got home, I saw that the house was a bit messy and the ground hadn't been cleaned for a long time, so Xiao Ruan was busy cleaning up the house first.

Many years ago, Gao Xu never did housework, and even had someone wait on him when he got dressed.Now that he has not been able to adapt to it for the time being, the solution is to ignore it, thus making the family look like this.

Xiao Ruan was so busy, she was quick to do trivial things.Gao Xu simply asked her to put her hand on the electronic door lock and save her fingerprints, so that she could use her fingerprints to open the door and help him with housework more conveniently.

The vacation is over, Gao Xu got up early in the morning to dress neatly, and prepared his wristwatch and leather bag.He rummaged through the closet and found a whole row of handkerchiefs, picked up one and folded it in the side breast pocket.But he thought about it for a while, and remembered that he didn't seem to see a man wearing a formal suit with a handkerchief on the TV or on the street.

He took out his handkerchief and put it in the inside pocket of his coat.
