The Pentium Era - South to North
Chapter 1677 Hot Pot on the Terrace
Liu Yun's home and Xiaofang's home are not far apart. They are both on Century Avenue. Xiaofang is at the head of Century Avenue. Liu Yun is at the end of Century Avenue, next to the Shanghai Futures Building. Xiaofang's home is It takes about five or six minutes to drive to Liu Yun's home.
Xiaofang took the high-speed train and returned to Shanghai from Nanjing. Xiaomi came to pick her up at the Hongqiao hub, brought her her driver's license and company business license, and told her that in the first round of application, I had already applied for you. The requirements have been screened for you, and then we are waiting for your interview.
"What time?" Xiaofang asked.
"You decide. You told them to wait for the interview notice. Once you finalize the time, just ask the office to call them to notify them."
Xiaofang said yes, thank you Sister Mi.
Xiaomi smiled and said, "Thank you for nothing, it's a trivial matter."
Just as he was talking, Liu Yun called and asked where Xiaofang was now.
Xiaofang said: "I just came out of Hongqiao and was in Mr. Mi's car, preparing to go back to Century Splendid."
Liu Yun said: "We will have dinner together that night. It will be the same as that day. We cook it ourselves. But today, go to my house, identify the door, and ask Xiaomi to come too."
Xiaomi was driving the car and heard Liu Yun’s call, and quickly said:
"Thank you, Mr. Liu. There are a few members in our club tonight. They are having a small party. It has been agreed that I will attend."
"Xiaomi, are you afraid of eating with us?" Liu Yun asked.
"It's true that something is true, and I'm really a little scared when I'm afraid. He Shayin, the smell of your food made me cry."
Xiaomi answered honestly, and the three people on both ends of the phone laughed.
Indeed, it is a bit difficult for a Shanghainese to eat with two Chongqing people. It is difficult to choose the hotel to go to first. Xiaomi likes to go to hotels like Laotaimen, or simply in his own club, while Liu Yunhe What Xiaofang likes to go to is either Sichuan food, Guizhou food or Hunan food. Even if it's Zhang Chen's Tuxiangyuan, Xiaomi rarely goes there.
After choosing the hotel, it was difficult to order the food. After the food was ordered, I still couldn’t finish it on a plate.
Liu Yun said, "Okay, I'll let you go, Xiaomi, and I'll find another chance next time. Yaomei, just wait at home. I'll pick you up after get off work and go shopping for groceries."
Xiaofang said yes.
Xiaomi sent Xiaofang to Century Fairview. After leaving, Xiaofang stood there, opened her business license, tax registration certificate, and code certificate and took a deep breath. Her company's name was Shanghai Fanghua Capital Investment. Management Co., Ltd., starting from today, Primavera Capital will officially hit the road.
Opening the new driver's license and looking at it, Xiaofang made a face at herself on the driver's license.
Xiaofang looked at her watch. It was still early. She didn't go upstairs. Instead, she went to the underground parking lot, got into her Ferrari, started the car and went out.
Shanghai is still a strange city to her. Xiaofang drives aimlessly in Pudong without using a navigation system. She uses her feelings and memories to describe this small territory where she works and lives. After getting familiar with it, I will go to Puxi if I have time in the next few days.
Xiaofang walked around the streets for more than an hour. At least she connected all the roads in Lujiazui in her mind, and she had a perceptual map.
She also passed the Shanghai Futures Building and the gate of the community where Liu Yun lived. At night, she would eat in this community. Next, she didn’t know where she would stop or eat in this city. The whole The city will be like developing a photo. When you go to a place, that place will be developed.
One thing Xiaofang is very clear about is that the deeper you penetrate into the capillaries of a city, the deeper and thicker the memory of this city will be in your mind, and the deeper your feelings for this city will be. In the end, it reaches the level of attachment, and it is only suitable for tourists forever.
Xiaofang remembers that when she first arrived in New Haven and later in New York, her favorite thing to do was to hold a city map and walk non-stop, almost visiting the entire city, even the street corners. She knows all about the little shops. She knows where the burgers are delicious, where the coffee is delicious, and where is the most comfortable place to sit and drink beer.
It was almost time, Xiaofang decided to go back. When she went back, it was different from when she came out more than an hour ago. She felt that she was in Lujiazui and could no longer get lost. She intertwined all the roads in her mind. It has become a road network. This is her home. Wouldn't it be embarrassing if she got lost in front of her home?
At around six o'clock, Liu Yun arrived downstairs at Xiaofang's house, called her and asked her to come down. Xiaofang went downstairs, got into Liu Yun's car, and the two of them went to the supermarket.
When they arrived at the supermarket, the two of them went straight to the fresh food area. After walking around for a while, they were a little confused. They seemed to have no idea what to buy and couldn't remember what they wanted to eat. Liu Yun had an idea and said to Xiaofang: "Yaomei, we eat hot pot?"
Xiaofang's eyes lit up and she nodded repeatedly.
The two people immediately changed their shopping route. First they went upstairs to buy an all-in-one pot, then went back downstairs and bought hot pot base and dipping sauce, fermented bean curd, and jars of sesame oil. Xiaofang picked up a jar of minced garlic. Ask Liu Yun:
"Sister, do you want this?"
"Yes, I won't see anyone at night anyway."
Xiaofang said yes and put the minced garlic into the shopping cart.
Returning to the fresh food area, I bought lotus roots, lettuce, tomatoes, potatoes and lettuce. When I arrived at the aquatic products area, I bought half a catty of prawns and kelp knots. In the dry goods area, I bought bamboo fungus, yuba and vermicelli, and also bought lunch. For meat, I finally went to the frozen product section and bought beef balls, shrimp sliders, beef rolls, mutton rolls, tripe, duck blood and goose intestines. Finally, I bought a large bucket of ice cream.
Looking at half a cart of things, Xiaofang asked: "Sister, did we buy too much?"
Liu Yun took a look and thought it was true. She said, "Whatever, if we can't finish it, we'll eat it tomorrow. Yaomei, do you ever get tired of hot pot?"
Xiaofang quickly said: "No, no."
Pushing the cart, she arrived at the checkout area and saw a row of Green Arrow chewing gum. Liu Yun asked the salesperson: "Are there any Big Bubble Gums?"
Xiaofang laughed when she heard it. There was a time when people ate hot pot in Chongqing. After eating, the store would give them big bubble gum.
The salesperson said: "It's not available here, it's on the shelves inside."
Xiaofang wanted to go find it, but Liu Yun said forget it, this is it, an impostor.
She said and took a box of Green Arrow gum. The salesperson looked at her and didn't understand what she meant by counterfeit.
The two of them arrived at Liu Yun's house. Liu Yun soaked the yuba and bamboo fungus first, and then took Xiaofang to visit room by room. There was only one room. Liu Yun did not open the door to let Xiaofang go in. Every room in that room was full of food. These are clothes from Half an Acre Field. Xiaofang must recognize them. It will be a little embarrassing to open them.
Xiaofang said: "Sister, your place seems more comfortable than mine."
"Of course." Liu Yun said, "You have only lived here for a few days, and I have lived here for several years. You are probably still in the stage of looking for something that you don't have. That's how people are. They accumulate over time and slowly develop themselves. It’s very comfortable.”
Xiaofang nodded.
Liu Yun found a long, roomy T-shirt, gave it to Xiaofang, and told her, you probably don’t want to dress so seriously to eat hot pot, do you?
Xiaofang took the long T-shirt to the guest room, took off her outer clothes and pants, and put on the long T-shirt. The length was almost to her knees. Xiaofang looked at herself in the mirror. She felt a little strange. She twisted her body and said no. It feels so comfortable, and a long-lost feeling comes back.
Xiaofang made another face at herself in the mirror and giggled.
In the past few years, Xiaofang has been working on Wall Street, which is the most formal and well-dressed place in New York. When she comes home, because Zhang Xiangbei is there, she is also dressed very seriously. Xiaofang herself has forgotten what Time passed by so casually.
Xiaofang walked out of the room and saw Liu Yun coming down from upstairs. She also had the same look. Under the T-shirt, there was a pair of white, straight and thin legs, wearing a pair of slippers. They were completely different from the Liu Yun she saw before. Everyone looked at each other and laughed, remembering that they were eating hot pot on the streets of Chongqing many years ago. Isn't it like this? This is a return to true nature.
The integrated pot was placed on the table, water was added, and the hot pot base was also put into the pot. The two of them went to wash and cut vegetables together. Most of what they bought were semi-finished products, and there were not many vegetables to wash and cut. They were busy soon. It's over.
When all the dishes were brought to the table, the pot on the table began to simmer with red oil, and the soaked yuba and bamboo fungus were ready.
Because she was worried about the heavy fumes in the house, Liu Yun turned off the air conditioner and opened all the doors and windows. Xiaofang said no, no, let's go eat on the terrace.
Liu Yunyi thought right, that would be the easiest and cooler.
The two people moved the pots and vegetables out, found the wiring board, plugged in the electricity, and they were ready to eat right away.
Liu Yun went to the refrigerator and got some cold beer, and the two started drinking, eating, and chatting.
Liu Yun said: "I can guarantee that this is the most comfortable meal I have ever had in Shanghai."
Xiaofang said: "Me too."
Liu Yun scolded: "How many days have you been in Shanghai?"
The two people laughed wildly. The sky was high and cloudy, and it was already dark, but the night in Shanghai was bright. Sitting here, they could see the Jin Mao Tower where they worked, the World Financial Center and the Oriental Pearl Tower. You can see the Shanghai Center under construction and the faint Bund, both of which are full of brilliance.
Liu Yun looked around the terrace and said, I should put a treadmill here and exercise for a while after eating. Otherwise, I will become a fat guy from Chongqing.
"No, sister, we have to play two." Xiaofang said, and the two of them laughed wildly again.
The September night breeze was blowing, a little hot, but not stuffy anymore. Someone was playing the saxophone on the terrace of the building next door. No one could be seen, but the sound was audible. Liu Yun asked:
"All the singers and sellers are here, Yaomei, do you have any change, can we order some songs?"
Xiaofang said yes: "I want to order Jacky Cheung's "I Want to Go Flirting with You"."
Liu Yun said: "I ordered "The Meaning of Travel" by Chen Qizhen."
Xiaofang smiled and said: "Sister, she is still fresh and fresh."
"Old and fresh." Liu Yun said.
After saying that, the two people continued to laugh wildly.
The saxophone next door is still playing, playing "Green Island Serenade". Green Island is very far away, and it seems that it is still several hours away from this city that never sleeps. It takes a while until the sound of the customs building can be faintly heard. When the bells ring, it’s really night in Shanghai. Now, it’s still dormant in the sound of the market.
Thank you to Quadratic VC, Tiezhongshang 1, Baby Tin Soldier, One Up and Two Fishes, and the rewards at 3 o'clock in the middle of the night!
