003 Trip to Shanghai
Shanghai. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć INFO is a national historical and cultural city with a profound modern urban cultural heritage and many historical monuments. The traditional Wuyue culture in the south of the Yangtze River and the industrial culture imported from the West are fused to form Shanghai's unique Shanghai-style culture, which has the name of "Shanghai" as early as the Song Dynasty, and after 1843, Shanghai has become a commercial port open to the outside world and rapidly developed into the largest city in the Far East.
It was at that time that various foreign religions entered Shanghai, and the Zhengyi Church became less famous in Shanghai. In the early days, Shanghai is a mixed metropolis, with French, Japanese, Americans, etc., each with its own side. Islam, Catholicism prevailed in Shanghai. The power of the Zhengyi Sect is weak and can only be hidden in the mountains and forests.
After the reform and opening up, Shanghai, like other places, became a phenomenon of the coexistence of five religions, and Taoism also had to develop very well. Some commercial contents of modern times were abandoned, and the original face of Taoist beliefs was restored. At the same time, it has actively carried out friendly international exchanges and developed exchanges and contacts with Taoist circles in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macao.
Although the official text tells Taoism has abandoned some of the commercial content that used to be, it only refers to Taoist temples and grandmasters that can be put on the stage. They devoted themselves to cultivation and lived in Taoist temples for a long time, which really promoted the culture of Taoist beliefs.
But there are also some who, under the banner of Taoism, are willing to be abducted and deceived, exaggerate with their ability to cheat money, and cheat their reputation!
No, in Shanghai, it can be said that the old lady of the Zhao Group, who is a little famous, has been choked enough. almost didn't take the life of the little granddaughter.
At the beginning in Luoyang, Old Man Zhao had to compromise and let Wang Lao slaughter. After his little granddaughter recovered, the three grandchildren respectfully brought the Wang family to Shanghai as if they were uncles.
Although Xiao Wang Hao usually lives in Luoyang City, his father has a car, and the farthest distance is to the third grandfather's house. He was only six years old and took a plane for the first time, which was really exciting. Every time the plane took off and landed, he felt that he was no longer himself, and his heart and soul did not know where to fly.
But fortunately, Xiao Wang Hao was very strong, he didn't cry, and he didn't vomit.
After arriving in Shanghai, there was a special car waiting outside the airport. A group of five people took the car and went directly to the small courtyard of the villa newly bought by the Zhao family.
"Brother Wang, what you plan to eat at night, I'll let you prepare it first. Hehehe..."
After getting off the plane, I returned to Shanghai, and my little granddaughter's illness was all cured. Zhao Lao is a lot more down-to-earth, after all, he has been friends with Wang Lao for so many years. Money is now outside his body, his son is still young, and it is no problem to struggle for thirty or forty years, as long as the family is healthy and healthy, it can be regarded as his happiness in his old age.
Wang Lao ignored the old man, but smiled and stroked the head of Xiao Wang Hao, who was looking around curiously, and asked, "Xiao Hao, what do you want to eat?" Order it casually, this is something you can't eat, only you can't think of it! ā
"Ahh Right! Xiao Wang Hao, tell Grandpa Zhao what you want to eat. It's grandpa to pick up the wind and wash the dust for you, and speak boldly! ā
Zhao Lao is such a smart person, he knows what Wang Lao loves this grandson and what he is, so he immediately followed his words and took it.
Xiao Wang Hao took a plane for the first time, saw such a large airport for the first time, and saw so many cars for the first time! I don't know where my mind has drifted for a long time. Speaking of eating, Xiao Wang Hao's throat gurgled and saliva. I thought of the snacks of Luoyang City, beef soup, and lamb hot noodles.
Some of them said, "I, I want to eat beef broth." ā
The voice was very small, and he said a little embarrassed.
In Luoyang, they are just ordinary petty bourgeois families, their parents are office workers, they have been in kindergarten since they can remember, and they are at the third grandfather's house in the village during the holidays. It's delicious to have a bowl of beef broth.
"Hahaha, good! Just make beef soup for us Xiaohao. Old man Zhao looked at Xiao Wang Hao's cute appearance, and his little granddaughter were completely two personalities, and he couldn't help but like this kid from the bottom of his heart.
Then he instructed the driver to prepare beef and some other things at home. Wang Lao didn't listen carefully to what it was, and sat in the car with his eyes closed.
About half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at the Zhao family's villa community.
It is indeed a good quiet place with the water and the birds singing and the flowers fragrant. The surrounding communities are scattered, and the greening of single-family houses is very good. The location of the Zhao family is even more unique, built in the middle of the North Mountain, every day the sun rises, the first is sprinkled in the small courtyard of his house.
It's just that since Wang Lao entered the community, his brows have not stretched. Whether it's from the driving directions, or the location of the buildings in other surrounding neighborhoods, the mind is restless.
Elder Zhao seemed to notice the change in Elder Wang, and asked with some concern, "Brother Wang, how is it?" Did you find something? ā
"It's hard to say, let's watch it after eating first. After all, old man, I'm old. When I'm hungry, I'm restless, for fear that Ming'er won't be able to eat! Hehehe..."
Although the face is smiling, although the mouth is joking. But in my heart, I regarded this matter as a top priority. It's just that he doesn't want his old friend of many years to be too sad, and this matter is by no means simple.
Coming to the villa courtyard of Zhao's hometown, it is really not an ordinary luxury! The courtyard is built halfway up the mountain, surrounded by a cement parapet hidden among the greenery. The gate opens to the east, and there is a small pond with circulating water, goldfish in the pool, and lotus flowers in the corner. Bypassing the fish pond, it is the residence of the Zhao family, Wang Lao has a kind smile on his face, and the eyes of the sky have been opened, looking at the entire three-story villa The sky is full of ashes.
Clouds formed by gray temperament are faintly visible in the sky.
Similar to such a strong death gas, it can only be seen in the crematorium funeral home, but the small courtyard of the Zhao family has actually become like this.
I'm afraid that the people who live in the courtyard will definitely not be in good health. I don't know who this Zhao family has offended, so that they have set up such a big array of children and grandchildren.
Secretly observing the small courtyard in his heart, Wang Lao's face smiled and greeted Zhao's eldest son and daughter-in-law who walked out of the room.
"Hahaha, Uncle Wang. I haven't seen you for several years, but you're still so old and strong! ā
The first person to speak was Zhao Lao's eldest son, Zhao Xuewu, and his wife and ten-year-old son were by his side.
"It's a martial arts study, my son is so old, hehehe. Not bad, not bad. ā
Wang Lao led Xiao Wang Hao and Zhao Xuewu to greet him, looking at their family of three, there was a gray breath between their eyebrows, although it was very light, it was not enough to affect their fate, but it was inevitable to be petty and petty.
Looking at his wife beside him, the smile on his face was a little stiff, which was caused by the anger in his heart before, and the two should have just quarreled.
"Xiao Hao, this is your uncle, and aunt, call someone quickly."
Xiao Wang Hao, greeted the two of them crisply, and his appearance was very cute. Zhao Xuewu asked his son to pull Xiao Wang Hao and Zhao Ying to the villa first.
Zhao Xuewen's wife, about thirty years old, is tall and slender, but her face is a little pale. When I saw my daughter jumping around, I was happy, but I coughed because I was excited. The gray gas was the most intense between her eyebrows.
"Thank you Uncle Wang for saving her life to the little girl, the woman will kneel down when she comes to Wang Lao."
Wang Lao's eyes were quick, he grabbed her arm, and said with a smile: "I have been old friends with your old man for many years, can I stand by and watch his good granddaughter have something." Hehehe, since I'm here, if you want to thank me, I'll make more delicious food! ā
The woman wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, smiled softly, and led the way in front of her old man and Wang Lao to the house together.
Entering the villa made Wang Lao even more frightened. It's almost like a funeral home. In this kind of place, the old man Zhao has a hard life, and he is a soldier, and his ability is really strong, and it is difficult to invade, if the old man next to him is estimated to have died a long time ago.
Through the eye of the sky, Wang Lao could clearly see that around the bodies of Xiao Wang Hao and Zhao Ying, there was a layer of golden light that others could not see, and the gray gas in the room could not invade their bodies, while everyone else was suffering from it.
After eating, Wang Lao let a few children play in the yard, and walked around the community with Zhao Lao on the pretext of walking.
"Lao Zhao, have you offended anyone in business in recent years?"
Walking out of the small courtyard, Old Man Wang began to ask.
Zhao Lao, who heard the words, glanced at it suspiciously, and knew in his heart that it must be this courtyard that made people move. With a sigh, he said, "You also know that business is like a battlefield. I spent the first half of my life in the army, vigorously and resolutely, fighting on the battlefield. I never like others to press me, a few years ago, there was a person who also did foreign trade business, did a lot in Shanghai, and came to compete with me for territory. I relied on my connections at all levels in Shanghai to make that person's business in Shanghai nowhere to go, and eventually went bankrupt. ā
"But then I learned that it wasn't that person who went bankrupt. It was a friend of his, who was in charge of the overall situation in Shanghai, and that person heard that he was an investor who had returned from overseas. His friend committed suicide by jumping off a building because he went bankrupt, and his wife and children also died at home due to a gas leak. ā
Zhao Lao looked a little guilty and sad. Obviously, this result was not what he expected. He didn't think he was going to make such a decision at this time.
After that, his son Zhao Xuewen returned from overseas and took over the company. Along the way, the business is getting bigger and bigger. After that incident, he returned to the field and went home to coax his granddaughter to enjoy Qingfu.
While listening to his narration, Wang Lao observed the layout of the entire community everywhere.
"Elder Zhao, the person you offended this time is definitely not simple. Who introduced you to this villa? ā
"This is an old friend in the business field, his family also lives in this community, said that the place is good. I also asked someone to come and take a look, there is water in front of me, and the back is against the mountain. The location is sunny and the place is quiet. So..."
"You've been calculated!" Wang Lao threw down a sentence and walked to the position of the mountain. Wang Lao didn't look at the people who were almost eighty, but his body bones were not ordinarily hard, and he didn't see him panting when he climbed to the top of the mountain.
Zhao Lao had been following his footsteps to the top of the mountain together, and at this time the sun had gradually set, and the sunset was shining from the northwest. There is a small pavilion at the top of the hill, where watching the sunset is really enjoyable.
"Brother, what do you say? Could it be that this house is very strange? ā
Wang Lao's expression was serious, and he squinted at the small courtyard behind the mountain and the small courtyard in front of the mountain. Shen Sheng said:
"When I first arrived at the villa, your sons and grandchildren were there, so I can't say more. Now I can tell you very seriously. If I hadn't come this time, I would have died in this family except for you within a month. ā
