Chapter 157: The "Old Place" Revisited

After seeing Xiaoying's painting, Zhuang Yan always wanted to find Chen Jiaqing to talk to her, but she kept a straight face and didn't speak. If Zhuang Yan said anything, she would also take care of it, just a hmm, a bang.

Chen Jiaqing didn't go out to make an announcement in the next two days, Zhuang Yan originally wanted to ask her how to deal with it, but seeing that she didn't speak, she didn't ask.

Zhuang Yan packed up his things and went out today, if it was usual, Chen Jiaqing would definitely ask him what he was doing, and he would definitely have to tell a few words, but today Chen Jiaqing kept staring at the TV, completely ignoring Zhuang Yan who was carrying a bag.

Zhuang Yan stood in the aisle, opened his mouth, but finally didn't speak, sighed and turned to open the door and left.

He went out this time to go to Cha Dong for a field trip, but the difference is that he didn't go alone this time, and he also brought Yao Qian.

On the second day of the interview, Zhuang Yan informed Yao Qian that he had been officially admitted.

Later, the things that booked air tickets and arranged cars were all arranged by Yao Qian.

Yao Qian arrived at the airport early, but he didn't go in to check in, and kept standing outside waiting.

When he returned from the interview that day, he didn't receive a call from Zhuang Yan, and he thought it was going to be cold, but he didn't expect that the next afternoon, Zhuang Yan actually called him to tell him that he had been admitted.

also told him to let him go to work immediately, and the first thing he did to officially work was to arrange a trip to Chadong.

Yao Qian had never heard of this place before, and after receiving the task, he went to the Internet to check it out, only to know that it was a small place in Xiangxi.

Although he didn't know why Zhuang Yan wanted to go to such a place, he still arranged the itinerary seriously.

When Zhuang Yan arrived, Yao Qian almost didn't recognize him, because Zhuang Yan was specially dressed today, wearing a peaked cap on his head, and a pair of sunglasses that covered half of his face on the bridge of his nose, so he couldn't see what he looked like at all.

This was the first time Yao Qian had met Zhuang Yan after the interview, although he had nominally worked for Zhuang Yan for three days.

"Mr. Zhuang, when you dress up like this, you look more like a star. Yao Qian made a joke.

Zhuang Yan shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Are there any celebrities who would dress like me?"

In fact, Zhuang Yan can only be dressed ordinary, not to mention soil, but the sports bag he carries does not look like a bag that a star can carry.

On the way to the check-in security check, Yao Qian took out a stack of papers from his bag and said to Zhuang Yan: "Teacher Zhuang, this is the information and some strategies I checked on the Internet, this tea mountain is located in the middle of the three provinces, and the city is ......."

Zhuang Yan smiled and waved his hand: "Let's talk about these things when we get on the plane, you don't have to be too nervous, it's still very easy to work with me, this time it's not a big deal for us in the past, it's just traveling." ”

"Tourism?" Yao Qian was stunned, he couldn't figure out why Zhuang Yan Tourism wanted to bring himself over.

Seeing Yao Qian's doubts, Zhuang Yan said: "You have just joined the company, and we can also understand each other by taking you over this time, which will be beneficial to our future work." ”

Yao Qian still doesn't understand much, work is work, and it's not making friends, why should he understand it like this. However, Yao Qian was still very happy in his heart, after all, he was a fan of Zhuang Yan's books, and it was not a bad thing to be able to travel with Zhuang Yan.

In fact, Zhuang Yan felt that he was alone and had a lot of things to do, such as booking air tickets and finding a car, which consumed his energy too much.

Just like when he was in New York before, he had to find a car and a hotel by himself, and if he wanted to sneak into the school, he had to go over to lie to others that he was a TV reporter.

If there are multiple assistants next to you, it can be much easier to be a hands-off shopkeeper by yourself.

Of course, there was no airport in Chadong, they flew to Zhangjiajie first, and when they arrived in Zhangjiajie, they drove from Zhangjiajie to Chadong.

The car was booked by Yao Qian in advance with the local car rental company, and he could drive away directly after arriving.

This is the advantage of having an assistant by his side, Yao Qian has thought about everything, and he doesn't have to worry about it at all.

It takes about two hours to drive from Zhangjiajie to Chadong, which is relatively fast.

Driving all the way to Chadong Town, Zhuang Yan gradually felt that the scenery was somewhat familiar, and walked to a small river, Yao Qian drove along the river, Zhuang Yan looked at the river, and recognized at a glance that this was the stream that the old boatman ferried.

The water is clear and not deep, and you can see the stones and eggs laid underneath at a glance.

Through the car window, Zhuang Yan looked outside and happened to see the white tower standing opposite. Not far from the White Tower, there was a wooden house, but it was not the same as the house where Cuicui and the others lived.

The car continued to drive, and there was a stone bridge in front of it, so you could drive directly from this side of the river to the opposite side.

Zhuang Yan pointed to the wooden house over there and said to Yao Qian, "Yao Qian, drive the car over there." ”

"But this road is not passable, to go to the town, you have to go straight from the front. Yao Qian said.

Zhuang Yan shook his head, "Let's not go to the town first, I'll go and see the white tower." ”

Yao Qian looked at the white tower in front of him with a low head, and as soon as the steering wheel turned, he drove over there.

Of course, what Zhuang Yan wanted to see was not the white tower, but the wooden house next to it.

As soon as he got out of the car and looked at the wooden house, Zhuang Yan didn't need to go in and ask at all, he could know that this place was no longer inhabited. There were some cobwebs at the doorway, and some wild grass grew under the steps, so it didn't look like a human at all.

Unwillingly, he shouted twice, but no one answered, and now he was really sure that there was no one.

Zhuang Yan turned around and ran to the river, where there was a rotten boat that looked like it had been sunk for some years.

Originally, the ferry boat was held by a rope, and the rope was connected from this end to the opposite side, and the ferry only had to pull the rope.

Now the rope is gone, and only a rotten end remains.

Yao Qian stood beside him, he didn't know why Zhuang Yan was staring at the rotten boat and the rotten rope so intently, just now Zhuang Yan said that they came to see the White Tower, but when they really came, Zhuang Yan didn't even look at the White Tower.

Zhuang Yan stood by the river and sighed, then turned around and said, "Let's go, go to the town." ”

Yao Qian was stunned, "What about the White Tower?"

"I've seen it. After speaking, Zhuang Yan walked to the car without looking back.

Yao Qian inexplicably followed Zhuang Yan back to the car, and then drove all the way to the town.

Along the way, Zhuang Yan's feeling is both familiar and unfamiliar, the mountains and rivers are still there, but the road is so well repaired, you can see a lot of houses built at the foot of the hillside, all of which are small houses in modern style.

From these bungalows, it is the old river street before.

Yao Qian has already booked a place to live on the Internet, and there are two or three small hotels in the town, which can be booked from the Internet.

However, Zhuang Yan was not in a hurry to go to the residence, but asked Yao Qian to continue to drive forward until he reached the side of River Street.

When we arrived at the side of River Street, the car couldn't drive in, so Zhuang Yan got out of the car again: "Let's go, let's walk over." ”
