Ten Mile Room

He said he was coming, but then it disappeared again.

By the time Yu Dongchi arrived at Laosanxiang, it had been more than half a month since he saw the pencil reply.

This time, he doubled the money for the meal.

When he handed over the money to those children watching the stage, and saw that the other party was holding a small ledger, he would have to calculate his life and death according to how much he ate and used, one penny, one penny or two pennies. Strong energy.

He is not angry now.

This stock should be mine, it's mine, it's not mine, and you don't need a penny more to get your temper, and it's exactly the same as their masters.

Interesting.

After the meal bill was settled, Yu Dongchi heaved a sigh of relief for no reason.

He finally relaxed from mind to body.

When he asked again where did Jiang Gezi go?The one named He Mingchuan said that Master Ganzi went to the corpse mountain in Longzhuao, saying that he went to find artistic inspiration...

Why does Jiang Gezi and artistic inspiration sound so awkward?

Just like a living monkey in the forest, it suddenly feels like writing calligraphy with a brush.

Yu Dongchi and Zhou Songchun glanced at each other, then laughed.And their smiles didn't mean to look down on them, they just thought it was interesting.

Jiang Gezi and Art?

This sentence sounds, literally, full of a jerky sense of incongruity.

how could it be possible!

They laughed at whom, but they shouldn't laugh at other people's grandpa in Laosanxiang.

He Mingchuan was a little angry. Although he didn't dare to lose his temper with the nobleman, he took out a white strip with "struggle" written on it from his trouser pocket, tied it on his forehead with all his strength, and snorted vigorously, turned around and left.

In front of the old theater.

Deng Changnong, with the word sprint tied on his head, held the iron pipa and strummed it desperately against the gable of the old stage.

A group of women spread reed mats on the old stage, which is embroidery, weaving, and sewing.

And on the stage wall behind them, there was a line of bloody characters written in horror.

"There are still fifteen days until the Art Conference!"

Yu Dongchi held back a smile and waved to Zhou Songchun. They entered this familiar alley just now, and felt that the people here seemed a little crazy.

Although this art conference has the meaning of taking care of the place.

However, art is not something anyone can do, otherwise, it would not have such a high status in Gaelic society.

To put it bluntly, just rely on these ordinary old neighbors?

Do they understand aesthetics?Do you know what is the core of art?

After studying for so many years, Yu Dongchi thinks that he will step into the threshold of appreciation and understanding.

As for these people, hey... let's not talk about it.

One by one, they love art so much, this attitude is worth encouraging.

In this way, Yu Dongchi took Zhou Songchun to the foot of the corpse mountain in Longzhuao.

However, Jiang Gezi was not at the construction site either.

Guan Shan Ali, who greeted him, said that the first Changhui Art Conference will open next month, and Jiang Gezi, as the inheritor of Tibetan knives, needs to prepare at least five works with different themes to cope with it.

So he looked everywhere for inspiration.

Yu Dongchi was speechless again!

How to call him?Said that Jiang Gezi took the art conference too simple?

If he dared to say that, Laosanxiang would get green vines in the city again tomorrow, so his temper would be really capricious.

let him!

They rushed all the way to the gold medal, so they prepared five works.

If he prepares five works, it would be nice to take care of an art apprentice for him in private!

Yu Dongchi felt helpless, but he said goodbye to Guan Shan Ali calmly with nothing on his face, and went out to continue looking for Jiang Gezi.

But this time, Guan Shan Ali was not as thorough as before, he just sent them to the gate of the construction site, then turned and left.

When they were far away from the cork forest excavation site, Yu Dongchi stopped, turned his head to look at the construction site on the mountain, sighed, and said to Zhou Songchun: "This time, Ali didn't send me off! You want to understand after all Are you still feeling resentful?"

Zhou Songchun hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at the mountain side and said, "I probably want to understand. After all, he is really a fool to rely on others after suffering so much! Your Highness, he is not under your control now, you You’ve done enough! It’s really not easy to socialize with him too much now. Since you’ve quit, you might as well continue to cut it clean, otherwise, they think you’re going to get your hands on a new power department..."

Yu Dongchi waved his hands in disgust and said, "I know, I know...how do I manage it? Overstepping my authority to interfere in financial affairs? And it was an old policy three generations ago, and my mother didn't say anything. The primary applications of various counties and states in the parliament, I I go to see it every year! There is no application form from the Dugaoke people, what do you want me to do? I am an idler who broke free a long time ago, Guan Shan Ali...he is a fool!"

Yu Dongchi who said this was a little frustrated, and he also hated iron for being weak.

When a gust of mountain wind blew over, he stretched out his hand and tugged at his collar.

Zhou Songchun immediately picked up the short windbreaker hanging on his arm and helped him put it on.

"It's good that you have a clear conscience."

While tying his belt, Yu Dongchi said softly: "He doesn't want to offend anyone. He is as good as anyone who is a panacea. In the end, everyone will be on guard against him. Gaoke's current state has something to do with his always vague political attitude." He is not worthy of sympathy!"

"Yes!"

Zhou Songchun nodded, thinking to himself, there is no shortage of smart people anywhere in this world, and Guan Shan Ali is really terribly smart if he can play smart to the point where no one can guard against him.

He is not as good as someone else's child.

Jiang Gezi also knew that something had happened, so he had to protest and negotiate in accordance with the above-mentioned procedures step by step.

Moreover, the means of others are to the point that the government can bear, and the scale is quite good.

In the end, they also hired professionals, and human rights lawyers went to the human rights department, and property and civil matters went to the civil lawsuit yamen, and everyone could sit down and argue with the yamen one by one.

The head can speak clearly to the extreme.

As for Guan Shan Ali, he just knows that no one should be offended, and that I am good with anyone, but he doesn't know how to do any of the things that should be done. He solves problems.

Is it possible?

impossible!

Who is in a hurry!

Such a big man hesitates every step of the way, and frightened house sparrows generally dare not say anything, how good this is!

The weather is entering early winter, and the temperature on the banks of the canal is getting colder. Yu Dongchi took Zhou Songchun along the foot of the mountain and searched all the way there. It was around noon when he saw Jiang Gezi squatting motionless outside the ruined walls of an old construction site. .

Seeing that he didn't want to disturb anything, the two looked at each other and smiled, and also tiptoed over, squatting beside Jiang Gezi, and looking in through the gap in the broken wall.

Jiang Gezi looked around, pursed his lips and smiled, and continued to observe secretly through the wall.

It was a pretty focused look.

Not to mention, it really looks like an artist's madness and obsession.

But, what is he looking at?

Yu Dongchi also observed carefully.

On the other side of the wall, there are only weeds growing wantonly, and a few household garbage, such as broken shoes and socks, are also thrown away at will.

The most uncomfortable thing is that there is a dead man's skull over there, which was also thrown under the broken wall. It opened its upper and lower jaws with only a few remaining teeth. Due to the angle, it seemed to be laughing at someone. generally.

Recently, there have always been corpses left on the battlefield by enemies that the Gaoke people don't care about, and they are unceremoniously cleaned up and discarded at the foot of the Longzhuao mountain.

The yamen didn't know how to clean up the remains of the ancient battlefield, so they typed a report on it.

Now that the approval opinion has not yet come down, and because there are too many corpses and there is no protection, there are naughty local children who often go there to steal one and bring it out to test their courage...

This skull was probably brought out in this way, right?

Fortunately, only the dead souls of the Gaoke people are still angry, otherwise, if there are spirits in the sky above the bones in these places, it will be enough for these unlucky children to suffer.

Time seemed to stand still, and the three of them lay motionless in the corner and looked over there.

Half an hour passed, and Zhou Songchun, whose legs and feet were numb, felt that he hadn't seen anything anyway.

There are only a few autumn grasshoppers jumping out of the grass, jumping on the broken shoes, and jumping on the skull...

Later, a gust of wind swept the reed flowers by the water, followed by Zhou Songchun's big sneeze, those autumn grasshoppers were startled and jumped up and fled into the grass.

Only then did Jiang Gezi turn his head and glared at them.

Although he didn't know why Jiang Gezi was angry, Zhou Songchun continued to sneeze while apologizing:

"Sorry, ah... Chi! What are you... Ah! Ah... Chi! What are you looking at?"

Jiang Gezi leaned against the wall and stood up. He waved his hands in disgust and said, "I can't talk to you two laymen who don't understand art! You don't understand...why are you here?"

The world's top art colleges and universities, the top students with first-class art appreciation certificates looked at Jiang Gezi with both laughter and laughter.

He said with a good temper: "Did you get any inspiration from the scene just now?"

Jiang Gezi nodded, and said with bright eyes: "Yes! Yes~ I saw a good material just now, but it's a pity that my full artistic inspiration was interrupted by you like this... By the way, this How did you get the time?"

Yu Dongchi laughed straight at Jiang Gezi's tone of "I'm a great artist".

He hadn't been this happy in days.

Finally, he sprayed out the reed hair in his nose, Zhou Songchun cleaned his nose with a handkerchief, and said in a pleasant tone: "My son! You are an artist and you are so forgetful? You forgot? We wrote a visit letter, and you agreed to visit."

Why did you ask why we came here? Isn't it just for the dungeon excavation project?

And it's not your third lane either.

This Changhui County belongs to our eighth master, okay?

Jiang Gezi thought for a moment and replied, "How long has it been?"

Yes, more than half a month has passed.

Yu Dongchi's expression darkened, he didn't explain, just smiled apologetically at Jiang Gezi and said, "I'm late, sorry."

Jiang Gezi replied dryly: "Oh, it's late, it's late!

Yu Dongchi watched intently. He hadn't seen Jiang Gezi for a long time. After seeing him just now, he just squatted quietly by the side and kept observing him.

It's been a long time since I saw him, and the little pigeon he loved so much has become more and more beautiful.

It also seems to have grown taller.

Even, his clothes are more refined now.

Jiang Gezi was wearing a gray-blue, one-time-molded long padded jacket with dark lines.He even wears a Gelai watch that looks simple in design but is very valuable on his wrist. It was only launched this year.

His trousers and shoes are all produced by a company under the Qiangong Bureau of Zhongzhou Neifu.

Yu Dongchi knew this brand because he was also wearing it.

And this brand is only supplied to the royal family, and it is also a very solid old brand.

Yes, now that he is His Excellency the Baron, he can wear it.

But he didn't know that it wasn't that Jiang Gezi had taste. Now that Jiang Gezi was taken care of, he no longer had to sew clothes by himself.

At the beginning and middle of every month, there are all kinds of big packages from Zhongzhou.Even the new clothes, luxury goods, and snacks that Yanzi prepared for Jiang Gezi were bought in piles. As long as he looked pleasing to the eye, he would buy them for Jiang Gezi and send them back eagerly.

Now Jiang Gezi has to change into a new suit in two days from the inside to the outside, and he can't finish wearing it.

Now open Jiang Gezi's bedside drawer, there are [-] or [-] valuable brand-name watches in it for him to take with him casually.

Jiang Gezi has no concept of luxury goods, and he doesn't understand the local luxury culture, so he casually fishes and wears them according to his own ideas.

However, good things are always good things.

Zhou Songchun pinched his still itchy nose and explained: "It's no wonder we, His Majesty is in a little sick. We went back to Zhongzhou once, and we just came back..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Dongchi suddenly interrupted him and said: "I arrived yesterday, and my mother is already well. The old man is getting old, and when the season changes again, he feels a little unwell, which is normal."

His Majesty the Empress of Kyushu is ill, no wonder!

Jiang Gezi nodded understandingly, but pointed down at the foot of the mountain without taking it seriously, and said, "You are all because of the underground city passage? I bought a car a few days ago, and today I have to go to the Art Museum Material factory, are you going? Let’s talk on the way?”

The material factory has already started business?

Hearing this, Yu Dongchi and Zhou Songchun looked at each other, they both showed happy expressions on their faces, and nodded together.

In this way, they followed each other and walked down the mountain together.

Zhou Songchun said as he walked, "I haven't received the report that the material factory has started business?"

Jiang Gezi turned to look at him, but thought in his heart, you don't know, how do I know?

Yu Dongchi explained with a smile: "It's normal, it should be a trial operation, they haven't officially listed yet, and the auspicious date hasn't been calculated yet. It's probably because of the art conference. It's not important to serve the artists first."

Zhou Songchun nodded.

After Yu Dongchi finished speaking, he asked Jiang Gezi in a soft tone: "Gege, are the prices of those materials acceptable to you?"

kindness?what happened?

Jiang Gezi paused, turned his face to look at Yu Dongchi, but Yu Dongchi just smiled at him friendly.

There was a kindness in the smile that was not there before.

Jiang Gezi pulled a dry smile out of the corner of his mouth, and continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

Think while walking.

This person~ seems to be a little different from before!

There seemed to be no sense of urgency in his questioning tone like before.

And the innocence and impetuousness that belonged to Yu Dongchi before, as if he went to Zhongzhou once, as if he was polished by someone, he suddenly became round and smooth.

kindness?Are you thinking about it?

That's right, he just said, emotions are hormones, and when the feeling above goes away, that's all.

Since... In this way, Jiang Gezi became friendly, and he replied politely: "To tell you the truth, with the general income of Laosanxiang, it must be expensive! After all, some materials are priced by gram. But I see those foreigners who are expected, um, those who...are engaged in art from other places.

They bought it cheaply by car by car!Five pennies and one gram of flower jade, I think some old men buy ten catties, ten catties... Those who are engaged in art are really rich! "

When Yu Dongchi heard Jiang Gezi say this, he was also taken aback for a moment, and took a deep look at Jiang Gezi, then nodded with a happy look and said, "That's good."

The price of the material factory is not set according to the consumption ability of the residents of Changhui City.

It is linked to the international material market and subsidized by local finance, which is cheaper than the international market.

Zhou Songchun saw that the two experienced eye contact, and then the pigeon changed his tone sensitively. After exchanging polite greetings, he felt a little sad and distressed, but he quickly adjusted his mentality.

and laughed with them.

Let's move on...we're all walking.

Every step of the layout of this small city was drawn by Yu Dongchi himself.

Every step of its growth comes from Yu Dongchi's reference to the development route of art capitals at home and abroad. He even has to work with his staff to design step by step according to the roots, qualities, and ways of thinking of the local people. made.

There are several very important key elements that are indispensable for the formation of an art capital.

Among them, mineral source and material supply are one of the very important basic elements.Therefore, a good art material factory is very important to attract artists from home and abroad to settle here.

They must be going to see the material factory.

Finally at the foot of the mountain, Jiang Gezi pointed at his brand-new silver triangular gas car with a proud face and said, "This is my new car, come on! I'll take you there! There are some things~ I'll talk to you in detail on the way ..."

Before he was finished, when Zhou Songchun and the others saw Jiang Gezi's car, the two couldn't help but laugh together.

No way, this car is too ugly.

It's like...a long and thin triangular sugar cake made by hand from a sesame seed shop on the street.

This car is as ugly as it needs to be.

When they looked at the rear of the car again, they saw that the car hadn't even declared a brand.

Yu Dongchi's complexion turned a little pale at the moment. He only walked for half a month, and someone couldn't sit still anymore?Who is it this time?

Hearing the two of them laughing, Jiang Gezi opened the car door and said, "You guys! Don't think about it. The old alleys in the inner city can't digest the roads. How wide is that road? How big a car can run in it? This is us. The Light of Eternal Brilliance is an oil-energy and pan-energy dual-purpose vehicle specially designed by the Old Hardware Machinery Factory according to the width of the alleys in this city!"

Is that so?

Yu Dongchi took Zhou Songchun with him, and the two of them studied the car carefully. They even ignored the dirtiness and lay down on the ground to look at the height of the car chassis. Finally, they even opened the back cover to look at the power facilities.

Due to the rough production of the car, the inner core was not tightly processed, and some oil stains had already stained all the new power equipment black. Zhou Songchun took out his snow-white handkerchief, wiped the oil stains on the oil pipes, and measured the oil pipes with his hands. Length, look at the nut connected to the nozzle, the attitude is quite rigorous and serious.

Jiang Gezi didn't know what they were looking at, so he stood silently and waited.

He sensitively discovered that in these short fifteen days, not only did something happen to Yu Dongchi, but even Zhou Songchun changed.

But where are they different from before?

He couldn't speak for a while.

After they finished surveying the whole car, Zhou Songchun closed the lid of the triangular car forcefully, and asked Jiang Gezi, "Price?"

Jiang Gezi pointed his finger: "It's not expensive! It's only [-] yuan, and you can apply for a local financial subsidy loan."

Brother Duan and the others lived frugally for a few years, maybe every family will be able to use such a cheap and beautiful car in the future.

When the income is high in the future, the neighbors in Laosanxiang will also become car owners.

Hearing what he said, Yu Dongchi shook his head slightly and said: "It's expensive! It uses a power plant design that has passed the protection period. The safety factor of this car is not strong, and the connections in all places do not meet the national standards. It should not be listed. ! Moreover, this car costs thirty guan at most.”

Jiang Gezi was taken aback, he looked at Yu Dongchi, then at Zhou Songchun.

The cost is [-] guan, and the market sells for [-] guan. Isn't this a normal thing for ordinary people?

As for the safety and so on, and the failure to meet the standards, isn't this something you should take care of?

Zhou Songchun wiped his hands with a handkerchief, and said with a sneer: "You are really giving them face! If you want me to say, at most fifteen, why do you always leave them such a big leeway? I will ask later, Who the hell did this, it's just the beginning, and I've brought my crooked brain to you!"

What are these two talking about?

Jiang Gezi seemed to understand, but also seemed not to understand.

Later he thought, after all, he is engaged in politics, and he is just a common man, so...he just listened.

He calmly pointed to the car door and asked them, "Are you still coming up?"

The two looked at each other, and then got into the unreasonably designed back seat together, stuck together very aggrieved, and closed the car door.

And the luxurious Panneng car they brought could only follow behind them aggrievedly, driving slowly.

However, it didn't follow very far.

After entering the city, Jiang Gezi drove the triangular car very smoothly and turned into a narrow alley.

In fact, this car has some advantages after all.

It has a narrow body and a dexterous body, especially when walking in the old-fashioned streets and alleys in Changhui County that cannot be remodeled. As Jiang Gezi said, it is a small car suitable for Changhui County.

However, different people always look at problems from different angles.

In the alleys, there are people coming and going, bustling, and now it is easy to get a job and earn pocket money, and it is very easy to do business in the shops on the street.

The foreign economy is constantly washing the local market with blood. The local local products in the old streets have been removed from the shelves in the old neighborhoods in just a few months.

Nowadays, some outdated brands from Zhongzhou have begun to be sold on major shops.

Most importantly, it seems that local citizens can afford it too.

From the surface, it seems that the city is slowly moving forward...

Jiang Gezi drove a triangular car nimbly through the old alleys in Changhui County.He didn't say a word all the way, just listened to the two people behind him talking about the car he was driving.

Zhou Songchun said in a sarcastic tone: "...this shit, the shell has a little brain, but it's just sprayed with paint... I just knocked it down, it was remade from second-hand alloy materials, and they used it After the design of the patent protection period, the subordinates thought... This is from the interest-free loan for urban development brought to you. Do you believe it, when the streets are full of this little monster, they will definitely open it. Expansion report, and then take the money and walk away."

Yu Dongchi leaned on his uncomfortable back with difficulty, squinted his eyes and said nothing all the way. When he reached the gate of the material factory, he opened his eyes and said, "Leave them alone now. When they have invested in the initial investment, the report will be printed out. It's..."

Speaking of this, the expression on Yu Dongchi's face suddenly became strange, he said with a sarcasm smile: "When the time comes, let's have a good talk with them."

oops!This is wrong!

After hearing this, Jiang Gezi was in a bad mood. He slammed the car door hard, walked up to the two people who had just got out of the car and said, "Let me tell you, you two really don't feel back pain when you stand talking! Ah, wait until they fall in." What about us, I spent eighty guan!"

Yu Dongchi laughed again. He stretched out his hand and patted Jiang Gezi's forehead, and said in a very forgiving tone, "Why can't I change the way I don't suffer! I know, I can't lose you!"

After finishing speaking, he put his hands behind his back, and went to the material factory like an old man.

Jiang Gezi stood stupidly for a while, and finally could only spit to the ground helplessly.

"Fuck, these politicians! Outrageous!"
