After the mayor was surprised, he quickly recovered his face, but his appearance was still seen by everyone, no need to ask, I am afraid that what Liu Lian just said is very likely!

"Mayor Zhang, what the hell is going on?" Zhu Zhengtai's face sank.

The mayor's name is Zhang Changgen, and the reason why he is shocked is not because no one knows about this matter, but because everyone who knows has been warned by the county that once it leaks out, he will be arrested and drink porridge!

At the same time, the town also knows that they are poor and remote here, and there is no other way out except to develop tourism, and if they want the tourism industry to develop well, this matter must be kept secret!

Therefore, under the leadership of the county, they all coincidentally concealed this matter, and neither the previous developer nor the current Zhu Zhengtai knew about this matter.

"Hehe, this ...... This gentleman may be here for the first time, and occasionally hear some rumors, but how is this possible, not to mention other people's families, the old man of my family is still alive, he is almost seventy now. ”

Zhang Changgen said with a smile, he didn't know what Liu Lian should call him, so he had to use Mr. instead.

Hearing Zhang Changgen's words, Zhu Zhengtai was stunned, Li Hongchang and the others also looked at each other, Zhang Changgen looked at least fifty, saying that his father was not sixty years old, it was impossible to say that his father was not sixty years old, it was impossible for his father to have children when he was ten years old, eleven or twelve years old, right?

But Liu Lian's face was still calm, and he didn't continue on this issue, and said lightly: "Let's take a look in the town first." ”

Seeing that Liu Lian didn't mention this matter again after saying it, Zhang Changgen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart: Which Wang Balamb leaked this matter?

Zhu Zhengtai and Li Hongchang were surprised. But a trace of doubt rose in his heart. They know some of Liu Lian's skills. also knows Liu Lian's character, he is cautious, and he has never seen him open-mouthed.

What's more, they have experienced too much, so naturally they will not be dismissed by Zhang Changgen's words, but they can't think of the problem for a while.

Thinking of this, Li Hongchang stepped forward and walked side by side with Liu Lian. He whispered, "What you just said is true?" ”

Liu Lian nodded, his expression a little solemn: "Well, you'll know in a while." ”

The group walked around the town, and there was basically not much smell of modern architecture in the town, and even the wires were hidden under the black eaves, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

The roads of the town are paved with long strips of green and granite stone, and there are some faint ruts of different shades on them, showing the prosperity of the past.

"This road is the main road in the past, when those old men returned to their hometowns, they were all opened by armored soldiers. Gongs and music, crowds of people on both sides. It's more lively than the Chinese New Year, but unfortunately there is no such grand occasion now, some people's children are admitted to university to work, or after going abroad to study abroad, they take their parents away, and there is almost no ...... to come back."

Zhang Changgen introduced on the side, looking a little lonely.

Liu Lian said calmly: "When this place is developed, it will be better in the future." ”

"Hehe, this is what I hope for, when the development of our town comes, I can count on you bosses." Zhang Changgen said.

But after a while, Zhang Changgen came back to his senses, immediately stopped talking, stopped talking about these things, and turned to Liu Lian to introduce the buildings on both sides.

By this time they had already walked through the main street to the fork in the road ahead.

"The ones on the right are those big houses, facing the river, the scenery is very good, and this is where we villagers live, most of them are old houses, but the pattern of construction is a bit messy." Zhang Changgen said.

Liu Lian didn't go to the road near the river, but pointed to the other side and said, "Let's go and have a look here." ”

Walking here, except for the occasional sparse tourist with bags on their backs, there are some locals, among whom there are a few gray-haired old people.

"Mayor Zhang, are these old people from your town?" Qiao Yuling said suddenly.

Zhang Changgen was stunned for a moment, then understood what Qiao Yuling meant, and immediately nodded: "Yes." ”

Hearing Zhang Changgen's words, Qiao Yuling immediately said to Liu Lian: "You are a big fool, look at them, they look like they are less than sixty years old?" I think it's all seventy! ”

Liu Lian looked at Qiao Yuling and said lightly: "What you see with your eyes is sometimes not necessarily true. ”

After speaking, Liu Lianwu walked forward, leaving a few people looking at each other, as well as Zhang Changgen with a worried look in his eyes.

In the thinking of rural people, this kind of thing is very unlucky, and generally speaking, people who do business pay attention to an auspicious thing, once they know about this kind of thing, I am afraid they will not invest.

In the past, there were still some fields in Qianshi Town, but in order to widen the river, those fields were dug up, and now the fields are gone.

Just when Zhang Changgen was distracted, Liu Lian suddenly pointed to a house that looked quite spacious and said, "Mayor Zhang, this should be your house, right?" ”

Hearing Liu Lian's words, Zhang Changgen was stunned for a moment, and then seemed to think of something, looked at Zhu Zhengtai and them, and thought that it should be Zhu Zhengtai and they sued Liu Lian, so he smiled and said, "Yes." ”

"Can we go in and sit?" Liu Liandao.

"Of course, you can!" Zhang Changgen hurriedly smiled, and made a gesture with both hands to invite in.

Liu Lian touched the sign of 'Zhang's Inn' hanging on the eaves of the door, and said with a smile: "Mayor Zhang, is there the most hotel in your town?" ”

"Yes, we used to be croppers, and we would farm, but now the fields are gone, and we can't do anything else, so we have to open hotels, and some houses are small and do some business, basically like this." Zhang Changgen said.

Walking into the courtyard, Zhang Changgen began to shout: "Mother-in-law, the distinguished guest is here, why don't you hurry up and make tea!" ”

Zhang Changgen's house is a three-story brick and wood structure house in the style of a patio, the wood has been brushed with tung oil for a long time, and now it is covered with a layer of dark color, and the air exudes a smell with a boom, but it is not strong, naturally because it has been exposed to the sun during this time.

The light in the room was a little dim, and Zhang Changgen turned on the light as soon as he came in, and said loudly: "This lazy woman, I don't know how to turn on the light first!" ”

Saying that, Zhang Changgen said to everyone: "Everyone sit down first, and the tea will come in a while." ”

Liu Lian smiled and said, "I'm not busy." ”

Looking around, Liu Lian finally felt some shadows of the past, some red wooden boards in the pitch black, several cases and circle-backed chairs of the same color, and those carved and hollowed out window lattices, all of which were full of antique style, but Liu Lian looked very kind.

At this moment, an old man walked in from outside, saw that there were many people in the house, and was stunned for a moment, nodded to everyone honestly, and said, "There are guests coming......

Saying that, the old man was about to leave, but Liu Lian said, "Old man, stay." (To be continued......)
