Chapter 722: The Capital of the Southern Dynasties
After a long night, just after noon the next day, the train made a continuous shaking sound, and the speed of the train slowed down dramatically. The www.biquge.info of the pen "Fun" Pavilion often followed Cao Ba's servants out of the house, busy rewrapping their luggage and utensils, and the guards also carefully checked their equipment, because the train was about to arrive at Pyongyang's East Station.
The weather in the capital of the Southern Dynasty is extraordinary, and the feet of the Son of Heaven are really different from other cities. The control in the railway station is very strict, and there are no beggars and pickpockets, and there are no idlers who have not bought tickets and platform tickets, etc., and it is difficult to enter the station where many railway police and staff have been re-fortified.
In this kind of place, even if Cao Ba is a character who can call the wind and rain in Nanpu City, he has to clamp his tail and behave obediently. The wealthy one didn't dare to use it at all, so he could only honestly follow the passengers in the car, and the rules and regulations were sandwiched in the flow of people, and walked out of the station through the underground passage.
As soon as I got out of the station, there were already vehicles sent by the Li family, waiting not far from the station. Ling Yang saw an elongated Mercedes-Benz car, and there were four bodyguards dressed in black and wearing sunglasses in the middle of winter, next to the door, which looked very imposing, but somewhat revealed a little nouveau riche taste. learned the style of the rich in European and American movies, but he learned it indecently, which looked very strange.
Pedestrians and vehicles passing by, seeing the pure black photo of the extended Mercedes-Benz, knew that it was a military vehicle, and avoided it one after another. A middle-aged man with a small head shook Cao Ba's hand with a cold face, let Cao Ba and a guard with a backpack on his back to the special car, and immediately turned around and left.
Cao Ba didn't know what to say in the car, the car stopped suddenly, and five minutes later, the man got into the car with Cao Ba, and pulled the two guards who had been to Yizhou City with Cao Ba and looked badly injured to the car.
Ling Yang looked at the car in the distance and said dumbfoundedly, "Why did you throw us away?" What shall we do? Where to stay? Squatting on the street? ”
The guard, who had taken Ling Yang around the city of Yizhou, hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "We have business in Liujing, so it is naturally not a problem to settle down, and there will be a car to pick it up later, let's wait patiently here." ”
Ling Yang was surprised: "What is Liujing?" Haven't we been to Pyongyang yet? ”
The guard smiled: "Pyongyang is the official name, and the people here are called Liujing, but it is actually a place. When we get here, we can't show our timidity, or follow the local customs, whatever people are called, we will follow what they are called, so as not to be looked down upon. ”
Seeing that Ling Yang had obviously never been to Pyongyang, the guards recommended themselves to be their guides, explaining in detail the land, population, customs, and matters that need to be paid attention to in peacetime.
When Ling Yang heard that Pyongyang covers an area of more than 2,000 square kilometers and has a population of more than three million, he frowned, thinking to himself that such a big city does not know where Chu Wanyi and Luo Tu have gone.
While talking, three or four Chinese-made Jinlong passenger minibuses lined up and stopped outside the train station. The guard pointed to the minibus driveway: "That's our car, let's go." ”
Along the way, Lingyang kept looking out of the car window, only to see that in Liujing City, whether it is the city center or not, most of the parks are lined with trees, although it is now a bleak winter, it can still be seen from the scale of the park, if it is midsummer, the whole city will be shrouded in a lush greenery, it is a very suitable green city for human habitation.
There are many more high-rise buildings in Liujing than in other cities. There are countless high-rise towers with dozens of floors, hidden among the trees in the park, and the momentum is magnificent, and it has the momentum of a national capital. Along the way, Lingyang saw countless parks of all sizes on both sides of the road, and when he asked, he learned that the green area of Liujing even reached more than 80% of the entire city's area, and it was even a green capital that is very famous in the world.
Most of the people on the street are pushing bicycles, wearing gray and black cotton clothes, dressed plainly, and dressed in a decent manner. There are only a few modern women who wear brightly colored down jackets and high heels. But it's just a rarity, and every time you walk through a street, you will attract countless envious eyes.
Although Liujing was the capital of the Southern Dynasties, there were not many vehicles on the streets, except for government agencies and military vehicles with special license plates, purely civilian cars, almost every famous car brand in the world. Luxury to Bentley Lamborghini Jaguar Rolls-Royce can also be seen, German and French Volkswagen Citroen, everything, Chinese local cars, such as the Great Wall, Emgrand and Chery and other cheap Volkswagen models, are countless, but there are no vehicles from the Northern Dynasty and the island country at all, which shows that the national hostility of the Southern Dynasties to those two countries has been deeply rooted in the bone marrow.
The minibus that Ling Yang was riding turned left and right in Liujing City, making Ling Yang confused until he couldn't find the direction at all, and the car finally stopped in front of a large six-story chain hotel with a quiet environment. The guard pointed to the huge blue-lacquered sign of the "Flower Hotel": "Here we are. Part of this hotel was invested by the eighth master, and it was opened in partnership with several Liujing's business partners. Every time we come, we stay here and pack up our things. ”
The Flower Hotel is located not far from the downtown area of Liujing, with parks on the left and back sides, trees lined up, artificial lakes said to come from springs, small bridges and rockeries all over the place, and the environment is elegant and pleasant. Behind the hotel is a state-owned catfish farm, and the guards said that the catfish raised there can only be enjoyed by the residents of Liujing, and the meat is delicious and difficult to eat in other cities.
Lingyang grew up in the north of China, and knows that the catfish in the north are delicate, delicious and juicy, and melt in the mouth. There is an old saying in the Northeast, called "Catfish stewed eggplant, support the old man", which means that the elderly have tried all kinds of delicious things, but they still can't resist the temptation of catfish meat, which shows how delicious catfish is.
When Ling Yang was in college, a classmate from the southern mountains in the dormitory said that in their hometown, a fish similar to a catfish was called "pond fish". Living in a stinky pond full of mud, specializing in eating the stinky meat of sick and rotting domestic animals, it is very aggressive, not only can eat all other fish, but can even catch wild birds and snakes and frogs, and even swallow plastic bags into the stomach to digest it, it is a very disgusting fish.
Ling Yang was entangled in Liujing's feedlot, whether it was catfish or pond fish, Tianbao was already holding the "insoles", and rushed towards the hotel with a smoke: "Hurry up and go in, don't freeze our insoles to death later!" ”
