Midsummer morning always comes earlier than usual, at four or five o'clock, the first morning star has lit up the first ray of morning light, the stars that have accompanied the pedestrians on their journey of thousands of miles have quietly disappeared, when the dawn in the east and the fish belly turns white, Liu Ya, who had slept all night, opened her eyes in a daze.

"Where?"

Wen Liang turned his head and saw Xiang Ziyu leaning on the seat with his long eyelashes slightly upturned, the tip of his nose that was smooth and smooth, and his lips that were as red as a promise, as if he had gathered the world's spiritual beauty in one, which made people can't help but have a reverie.

"Hey, I'm asking how you are, where are your eyes looking?"

Liu Ya stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Wen Liang's eyes, although the words were not good, but the tone was a little ridiculous, compared to her previous attitude, it was a world of difference. Wen Liang pointed to the corner of his eye and said secretly: "Assistant Liu, there is eye feces......"

"Huh?" Liu Ya exclaimed, quickly took out the makeup box from her bag, looked left and right at the corner of her eye, and didn't find anything, realizing that she had been deceived by Wen Yu, she was immediately furious, and said, "You! ”

Xiang Ziyu was sleeping Zhengxiang, who was awakened by Liu Ya's noise, and after figuring out the situation in the car, he ignored Liu Ya's words of memoration and said with a smile: "Mr. Wen, good morning!" ”

"Good morning," Wen Liang looked at his watch and said, "It's half past four, and there will be about half an hour to get to Guanshan." Miss Xiang, have you arranged a place to stay? ”

"What, you want to find us a place?" Liu Ya leaned on the back of the chair in the front row and said with a smile.

Wen Yu pretended to be ashamed, and said: "We poor people live in small hotels and guest houses, and we don't know where the doors of the big hotels open, Assistant Liu, don't embarrass me." ”

"Pretend, keep pretending!" Liu Ya pursed her lips and said: "Don't think I really don't understand, those who can afford to drive an Audi in the mainland are people with connections and backgrounds, otherwise they can't buy it if they want to!" ”

Wen Yu chuckled. Said: "What kind of old yellow calendar are you...... Is it a small newspaper of 'three nos' that you read at a stall in Mingzhu? ”

Liu Ya's mouth opened slightly, glaring at Wen Liang silently, it seemed that he had guessed correctly. Wen Liang sighed: "This is the reason for the lack of communication and understanding, now the country is not as good as before, the market economy, open and lively, as long as the consumption starts, not to mention Audi, even Porsche Ferrari can be bought ...... you"

"Heh, it's like how developed the country is!" Liu Ya also knew that she was pitted by the small newspaper. lost his ugliness in front of this wicked person, and had the heart to regain some face, and said: "Then tell me, why do you practice family planning, and why do you use violence to deprive every woman of her reproductive rights?" You have also seen it yourself, if Liu Shi and his family didn't have family planning, they wouldn't have to leave their hometown and wander around, and Wu Ping would not have embarked on this road. This...... This is the greatest insult to a woman! ”

Speaking of family planning, Wen Liang remembered a joke circulating on the Internet in later generations, saying that the plan of the country's life is random to die. The most difficult mode to choose from the beginning of reincarnation, because even if you try to outrun billions of brothers and sisters, you don't know if you can legally come to this world. Of course, jokes are jokes, and reality is reality. The family planning policy involves too many aspects, and it is impossible to coordinate various views and positions.

Wen Liang sighed. Said: "This question, I can only say that family planning is a national policy, and the person who formulates the national policy should be smarter than you and me, and more far-sighted than you and me......

"Hmph, I knew you were going to talk empty words. What kind of population explosion swallows up the dividends of reform, what contradiction between excessive population growth and limited resources, these are all false, Japan also had a high fertility rate after the war, but with the rise in per capita income and social and economic development, by the sixties and seventies it had fallen below 2, and then to 1.5 in the nineties, and it is foreseeable that it will be further reduced in the future. But your Professor Ma, who talks about population one by one, probably doesn't understand the connection between population and economy......"

Wen Liang was a little surprised, Liu Ya seemed to be big-chested, but she blurted out such a number, it shouldn't be a mouthful. Xiang Ziyu, who had been smiling and listening to their bickering, seemed to be able to see through Wen Yuan's thoughts, and explained: "Liu Ya studied in Japan before, studied business, and her graduation thesis was a research on Japan's economic weakness in the nineties......

Liu Ya looked at Wen Liang triumphantly, and said, "I was speechless, right?" There are many factors contributing to Japan's economic weakness, not the least of which is the fact that the population is aging, which is still a consequence of the lack of family planning...... In the eyes of a stupid person like me, in less than 20 years, you in the interior will inevitably face the problems that Japan is now facing...... Tell me, what kind of foresight will repeat the detour that others have taken? Kindness? ”

Wen Liang really hasn't done any research on this issue, and if there is no research, he has no right to speak, so he had to smile and say: "I don't study the Japanese economy, but the Professor Ma you mentioned has written many economic works, and writing "New Population Theory" is an inter-industry ......."

"I have a master's degree in economics from Yale University and a doctorate in economics from Columbia University, but I just wonder how such a powerful figure uses mathematical calculations to calculate that if family planning is not implemented, the population of the mainland will exceed 2.6 billion by 2007?" Liu Ya said disdainfully: "Could it be that in these decades, the population growth rate will only be more, not less?" Could it be that after the economic development and the increasing social pressure, do you still have to have seven or eight children and be able to afford it? ”

Wen Liang has always been an eloquent person, and he can talk for three days without ignorance, but in the face of Liu Ya's aggressiveness, he really doesn't know how to refute it. In particular, from the perspective of his two lives, it is obvious that the historical limitations of the "New Population Theory" can be seen, and the facts have also proved that the "only one child is good, and the government will provide for the elderly" propagated when family planning was implemented has been infinitely close to bankruptcy, and the aging problem is seriously plaguing the country.

But the question is, will family planning not be practiced and the same problem will not be faced again in 30 years?

History has no ifs, so there will be no answers either!

"2.6 billion is just a theoretical number, you can't look at historical figures outside the limits of history, that would be unfair to them."

"Yes, it's not fair!" Liu Ya was obviously very disgusted with Professor Ma, and said: "I married two wives and gave birth to seven children, but I want others to have family planning!" ”

Wen Liang said helplessly: "This is unreasonable, he married his wife and had children during the Republic of China." Let's be reasonable. ”

Liu Ya looked at Wen Liang as if she were a rare animal, and said, "You didn't have water in your head, right?" Isn't it a fool to reason with a girl? ”

What else can Wen Liang say, shut up and ignore her, Liu Ya rarely gained the upper hand in the battle with Wen Liang, so she naturally didn't want to let him go so quickly, tilted her head and leaned over, and kept teasing: "Hey, you should continue to debate." ”

"Good. I'll take a step and let you say, I don't say. ”

"Actually, I understand what you mean, the national policy and national policy, of course, is the result of collective efforts, and you can't blame a certain person."

"Hey, aren't you a man, so stingy, don't talk, right? If you don't speak, you've been talked to ...... in this life."

These words are spoken. A bit like the anger between lovers, Liu Ya noticed that something was wrong, she was ashamed and annoyed, and said, "I won't say it." I'm! ”

When the two were making a fuss, Chang Cheng suddenly honked his horn and said excitedly: "Guanshan has arrived!" “

The ancient city of Guanshan showed its true face from the light and shadow of the early morning, and many pedestrians who got up early to exercise could be seen in the distance. Smoke willows everywhere, lotus leaves in the sky, a few egrets leisurely across the blue water. It is the most beautiful season of the year, when the car enters the city, Liu Ya pokes her head out of the car window, admiring and admiring: "It's so beautiful, just like in the painting, miss, you can't see such a scene in the pearl." ”

Xiang Ziyu nodded, where did her gaze stay more on Wen Liang, and then asked, "Mr. Wen, will you go back to Qingzhou later?" ”

"After sending you to the hotel, I left, and I have been out for more than a month, and there is an idiom how to say it, the heart is like an arrow, ha!"

Xiang Ziyu smiled slightly and said, "Yes, I'm also a little homesick......

Audi stopped in front of the Minghua Hotel, this is Gu Shitong's industry, Liu Ya looked at it, was quite satisfied with the environment, and said, "Mayor Chen's arrangement is still good...... Hey, a poor man, do you want to go in with us for a long time, don't worry, we won't charge you money, we will treat you to breakfast! ”

Although Xiang Ziyu didn't speak, her eyes showed that she had no opinion on this mention. Although Wen Liang didn't mind staying with them for a while, he was in the same situation as Gu Shi, eating in his territory, what if he was recognized, and then secretly spat in the meal, so more is better than less.

"Thank you Assistant Liu for your generosity, it's just that I am a poor man and can't afford to eat such high-end food." Wen Liang laughed, then stared at Xiang Ziyu's face, and said, "Miss Xiang, take the liberty of asking, which Mayor Chen did Assistant Liu mention just now, who is Mayor Chen?" ”

Xiang Ziyu listened to Wen Yuan's words, looked at him quietly for a moment, his body was slightly straight, his slender jade legs were sideways, his head was raised slightly, his eyes and face were lowered, and he said lightly: "Guanshan Mayor Chen Zongzhi, what's the matter, does Mr. Wen know him too?" ”

"I've heard it, but I don't know it, and we don't have that honor!"

Wen Yu knew that Xiang Ziyu had already misunderstood, and regarded himself as the kind of speculator in the drill camp who wanted to climb the relationship when he heard about the dignitaries, so he just inadvertently adjusted his sitting posture, but he changed from the extremely comfortable casual state just now to the lady's sitting posture that people can't find fault with now.

Trust a person, it's hard,

Don't trust a person, but it's easy!

"Presumably, Mr. Wen also guessed that we came to the mainland this time to make investments, and Mayor Chen was introduced to him by a friend, and everyone is not familiar with it."

Xiang Ziyu is a smart person, and smart people tend to think more about why. Wen Forgiveness has always been a very gentleman along the way, and he is very measured in dealing with the world, except for knowing that he is a pearl person, he has not asked anything about personal matters, even if when the two of them chatted in the car, he completely let down his vigilance, he still did not cross the line one step. But just arrived in Guanshan, and when he heard Chen Zongzhi's name, he immediately became interested, which was just the words that Liu Ya brought out of his words, but he immediately captured it, and the meaning it represented was self-evident.

And he is a native of Jiangdong, the mayor of a provincial capital, what does it mean to the locals, Liu Ya may not know, but she knows very well the powerful relationship, and if she really wants to be able to climb the friendship, it is enough to make people struggle for ten years!

Ten years, how many people can refuse such a temptation?

Perhaps, he thought that after a night of getting along, he had done enough foreshadowing to take the opportunity to make some less excessive requests, such as pulling a string between him and Mayor Chen?

The human heart is indeed the most difficult thing to guess!

The estrangement in Xiang Ziyu's words is very clear, faintly rejecting people, Wen forgave and smiled, and did not explain anything, at this time the explanation seemed to be empty-hearted, and said: "I hope that Miss Xiang will invest in Shun lì, and her career will be thriving!" ”

At this point, it was relatively boring, Xiang Ziyu and Liu Ya got out of the car, and watched the Audi car go away, and the impulse to contact the car disappeared at the last moment. Liu Ya seemed to feel something, glanced at her own young lady, and didn't make a sound.

Xiang Ziyu stood for a while, his expression returned to calm, and he turned around and walked towards the hotel: "Xiaoya, let's go, take a shower and have some breakfast, and then hurry up and rest, and have a meeting with Chen Zongzhi in the morning." ”

Thousands of miles in one night, she experienced the fight between the market for the first time, the first time she saw the joys and sorrows of ordinary people, the first time she quietly hid behind a strange man, let him protect herself, and the first time she boldly got into this stranger's car, walked with him for thousands of miles, and it was the first time to do such a shameful thing in the wild, but the figure standing under the bright moon did not make her feel embarrassed, but very relieved!

He is not the wisest person he has ever met, nor the most charismatic person, nor is he a star who can be noticed at first sight, but compared with those handsome men who are always around him, he is more approachable and relaxing, as if there is a strange quality in him that will turn uninteresting topics into interesting topics and make interesting topics more interesting. Of course, it's not a liking, it's not even a good feeling, she doesn't have a little girl's fantasy about love at first sight, and she is past the age of simply infatuating with men, she is just, she has been alone for too long, thinking that she has finally met someone who can be friends.

It's just that in the end, she found out that this friend is no different from the men she met before, or the difference is that he is more able to hide his true colors, and because of this, it seems even more terrifying!

But......

Still grateful for the journey of this night,

And then

Go your separate ways, cherish each other!

(On September 1, 2010, the parallel line was officially released, and on September 1, 2015, for five years, many people have changed a lot from students to work, many people from single to married, including me, have changed a lot, but what remains unchanged is that it is the original intention of writing parallel lines, thank you for the persistence of friends who have followed so far, and thank you for your willingness to tolerate the laziness and instrength of the ball.) Looking back at this time, a thousand words but I don't know where to start, I can only bow again, grateful! (To be continued......)
