Chapter 67: The ridicule of the magic capital
The middle-aged man was a little surprised and a little curious: "I really let the little brother say it, I did go home on a business trip, but how did you see it, little brother?" ”
Chen Geng said with a smile: "Your accent has a little magic accent, but it's not heavy, it means that your hometown is not from the magic capital, but you have been working in the magic capital for a long time, and this train is going to the magic capital, so it's easy to explain, right?" ”
"Awesome!" The middle-aged man gave a thumbs up and admired Chen Geng's logical analysis ability: "I really let you say yes, little brother, I have been working in the magic capital for five or six years." ”
"Alas, the devil has been working for five or six years?" Chen Geng looked at him sympathetically: "Tsk, the housing conditions in the Demon Capital are very difficult. ”
"Little brother, do you know the situation of the housing in the magic capital?" The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, and became more and more curious about Chen Geng's whole person.
Chen Geng nodded and said: "You know one thing, the per capita residential area of each household in the magic capital is less than 20 square meters, and many families or even three generations of a family, seven or eight people, live in these 20 square houses......
"Third child, are you kidding? That's the magic capital, the movies and TV are so beautiful and prosperous, why do you say this as if it's like a refugee? Listening to Chen Geng's mystery, which was completely different from the big Shanghai and Shanghai in his impressions and concepts, Zhang Xiangyang instinctively began to defend his beliefs.
In his eyes, the magic capital is the only big city in the country to question, in Haizhou, if anyone can have a relative of the magic capital, it can make the surrounding neighbors and colleagues envious, it is a little worse than having overseas relations with Hong Kong and Taiwan, but the people of the magic capital are actually a family of three generations living in a small house of less than 20 square meters?
My family's forty or fifty square house is still too narrow, how can a family live in a house of less than 20 square meters? He couldn't imagine.
"Comrade, what your colleague said is really right, the housing situation in the magic capital is so tense," the middle-aged man said: "Just tell me the place where I live, that alley...... You know the alley, right? ”
"Yes." Zhang Xiangyang nodded hurriedly, he had read a lot of information about the magic capital alley in the book.
"Such a small alley can accommodate one or two thousand people, and the housing area of each family is only twenty or thirty square meters," the middle-aged man gestured: "You must know that in the countryside, the deposit of one or two thousand people is a big village, but in the magic capital, it is normal for one or two thousand people to live in an alley, and in the morning, the whole alley is filled with the sound of hula brushing the toilet, the smell, tsk......"
"Flushing the toilet?" Zhang Xiangyang's eyes widened, what age is this, still cleaning the toilet?
"It's the kind of wooden toilet in ancient times, it looks like a drum standing up," Chen Geng explained to him: "The houses in the magic capital are all old houses, without kitchens and bathrooms, and there are only one or two public toilets in an alley, so every household must have a toilet to solve the sanitation problem, and every household has a toilet, so in the morning, the whole alley is full of poured toilets and brushed toilets." ”
Zhang Xiangyang's expression was a little sluggish, and he seemed to want to retch...... Thinking of the spectacular scene of hundreds or thousands of people pouring and brushing toilets there, it is estimated that few people can bear it.
Chen Geng looked at Zhang Xiangyang and felt a little sympathetic in his heart: this poor child, when he came, his heart was full of longing for Shanghai, thinking that he was qualified to be a person who had gone to a big city to see the world after coming around this time, but he didn't think that the place he was going to was a place where dozens or even millions of people squatted together every morning to brush the toilet......
Vomit......
Chen Geng felt that his taste was also quite heavy, and he would even think about what a spectacular scene it was to have hundreds or thousands of people squatting there at the same time to wash the toilet.
The middle-aged man had long been accustomed to seeing it, but noticing Zhang Xiangyang's discomfort, he quietly changed the topic: "If you want to say that the housing in the magic capital is tight, let me tell you a joke...... It's not a joke, it's a real thing, but it can reflect how tight the housing in the magic capital is, when the four-person team was put on trial, guess what one of the charges was? Occupy a two-bedroom house! ”
The middle-aged man said in an exaggerated tone like a romance novel: "Ha, the four-person group cow, where did they climb to the beginning?" But one of the charges is to occupy a two-bedroom house. ”
“…… Really? ”
Zhang Xiangyang thinks this thing is simply amazing, let's not discuss how bad the four-person team is, how much loss and trouble it has brought to the country, just talk about their former identity and status, it's no problem to live in a courtyard house in the capital, but one of the charges is to occupy a two-bedroom house? Anyway, it should occupy a small western-style building!
The middle-aged man smiled: "Let's not talk about what this crime is, this kind of thing is not something we can discuss, but the director of the Modu Nuclear Power Research Institute that I know is just a two-bedroom house, and you should be able to imagine how tight the housing in the Modu is." ”
Zhang Xiangyang opened his mouth slightly in surprise, although he didn't know what level of institution the Nuclear Power Research Institute in the magic capital was, but just listening to the word "nuclear power" made people respectful, and instinctively felt that this thing was simply too high-end, but the director of the Nuclear Power Research Institute could only be assigned a two-bedroom house? The housing situation in the magic capital is tight enough.
"Speaking of which, I'll also tell you a stalk," Chen Geng was also aroused, and said: "There are many guest houses now, all of which are converted from abandoned air-raid shelters, do you know this?" ”
Zhang Xiangyang nodded: "I know." ”
At present, there are many guest houses that have been converted from air-raid shelters dug during the preparation for war in the past, but now there is no need to guard against the north, and these air-raid shelters are idle there.
The air-raid shelter is warm in winter and cool in summer, in the absence of air conditioning, this kind of air-raid shelter converted guest house is very popular with people who travel on business, many people are also looking for this kind of guest house to live, not only cheap, but also comfortable, Zhang Xiangyang is only curious about, why did the third suddenly say this?
"There are air-raid shelter guest houses all over the country, but the air-raid shelter guest houses in other places are one bed or two beds per room, and the great thing is the Chase shop, but only the guest house converted from the air-raid shelter in the magic capital is a considerable part of it is a shelf bed, and many of these guest houses have three layers of shelf beds."
"Are you kidding me?" Comrade Zhang Xiangyang, who has just completed a reshaping of his outlook on life, feels that his outlook on life needs to be reshaped again: a three-story shelf bed? Could it be that the bomb shelters in the magic capital are so scarce?
"Are you kidding? Hehe...... In the past two years, Changzhou diesel engine factory has developed rapidly, and it is becoming more and more well-known in the agricultural diesel engine market, but do you know? The reason why Changchai has developed so fast is because Changchai has made great efforts to dig people from Shangchai in the first two years, and the reason why Changchai can poach the technical backbone and engineers from Shangchai is because Changchai has set a condition: all people who go to Changchai can each get a two-bedroom house to solve the problem of employment for their families and children's schooling.
On this one, at that time, the technical backbone and engineers of Shangchai each residential area was twenty or thirty square meters, Changchai's condition was opened, Shangchai's technical backbone and engineers could not refuse, the entire Shanghai Diesel Engine Factory instantly floated people's hearts, several years of hard work on the technical backbone and engineers of Shangchai was Changchai to dig seven, seven or eighty, Changchai can develop, Shangchai is made a lot of self-sacrifice, hehe......"
Zhang Xiangyang didn't speak, but turned his head to look at the Zhongnan man for the first time.
The middle-aged man nodded with a smile and affirmed Chen Geng's answer: "There is such a saying among the people of the old demon capital, it is called 'I would rather have a fire in the house than fall in the gutter on the road', do you know why not?" ”
Although he knew that this was another pit, Zhang Xiangyang still couldn't help it: "Why? ”
"Because of poverty, the most valuable belongings of the whole family are the clothes on the body, and if this clothes are destroyed, half of the belongings will be gone."
"Actually, don't laugh at the second brother about this," Chen Geng took over: "Speaking of which, our country is too poor, and the situation in the magic capital is quite good, and there are many worse places than the magic capital." ”
As far as the whole country is concerned, in fact, the situation in the magic capital is good, and this sentence is more of a joke and not very funny joke.
"Little brother has lived in the magic capital?" The middle-aged man finally couldn't hold back and asked Chen Geng.
These things that Chen Geng said, if he were not a person who had lived in the Demon Capital for a long time, it would be absolutely impossible to know, but Chen Geng's voice could not hear the slightest taste of the Demon Capital accent, which inevitably made him a little curious about Chen Geng.
"I've interned in the Demon Capital for a while," Chen Geng nodded: "This old brother, you're in the literary and artistic industry, right?" ”
"How do you tell?"
"This, mainly depends on temperament." Chen Geng easily dragged a stalk from the later generations.
In these years, engaging in literature and art is still a very tall job, hearing Chen Geng say that the middle-aged man in front of him is doing literature and art, Zhang Xiangyang immediately said in surprise: "You are making movies?" ”
"I'm from the Modu Art Film Studio," the middle-aged man's polite expression carried a touch of pride in his polite expression: "Two little brothers, are you also Modu?" This is...... Business trip? ”
"Yes, we're going to Poussin, the magic capital, to talk to them about business." Without waiting for Chen Geng to answer, Zhang Xiangyang took the lead.
