First of all, let me explain that this is an essay, the prose is an article that comes from hand, this article is the same as the previous ones, it is my personal experience, about five years ago, I often went to Shandong on business trips, and left a lot of deep impressions, I think it should form a textual thing, so as not to blur the memory in the future and not be able to write.

The place I often go to is Zouping County, 80 kilometers northeast of Jinan. That's right, it is the hometown of Fan Zhongyan, and it is also the hometown of the big traitor Fan Wencheng, so far the local distillery also produces the low-alcohol liquor of the Fan Gong wine basket brand as a commemoration, this county is one of the top 100 counties in the national economy, especially the industry, the famous Weiqiao Entrepreneurship Group is located here, you may not be very familiar with this private enterprise, then let me tell you, this is the world's largest cotton textile enterprise, as many as hundreds of thousands of workers, you can control the price of cotton cloth in the world at will, there is a local saying: Weiqiao recruits, several nearby counties and cities have to suspend school, Because all the young people came to apply for jobs, the cotton textile mill needed a lot of steam and electricity, and it was not cost-effective to buy mains, so the company built a lot of power plants to be self-sufficient, please note that there are many power plants, not one or two, but at least ten power plants all over Shandong, with an installed capacity larger than one another, and my job is to provide ignition and furnace safety equipment for the power plant.

Five years ago, the headquarters of Weiqiao Group was still located in Weiqiao Town, every time I went out of home, took a train to Jinan, then transferred from the railway station to the bus station, took a car to the county seat, and then took a bus to drive 30 kilometers, to arrive in the town, the whole trip takes a day, mainly in the transfer trouble, after arriving in the town to find a small hotel to stay, because there are many people who come to do things, there are many small hotels in the town, and they are next to each other, just like the Japanese love hotel, these small shops are their own three-story buildings, Two people to operate, or hire a little sister as a waiter, the usual price is a standard room of 60 yuan a night, with air conditioning and TV, if with a separate bathroom to 80 to 100 yuan, our business trip subsidy is 100 yuan a day, this 100 yuan includes food and accommodation, the savings are their own, so I often choose the poor conditions of the hotel.

The cheapest I have ever lived in the town is a single room of 20 yuan a day, the owner is a poor couple, every day when they eat, they can see them under the noodles, almost every day, there is no shadow of the food, the equipment of the hotel is also very poor, the management is not good, there are often big yellow dogs running into the guest's room to beg for food, the common bathroom is located under the stairs, the health situation is quite worrisome, so I have lived once and have never been again.

I remember one year's New Year's Day, about 2oo3 years, the lights outside are very lively, I still live in the local area because I didn't get the payment, I can't leave like an arrow, a person who is big for the New Year ran out to buy two cans of beer, a roast duck took back to the hotel to eat, set up a banquet in a narrow single room, poured himself a drink, ate for a while and tears suddenly flowed out, think about it is pitiful enough.

When I first started on a business trip, I liked to bring my own rice, every time I came out of the house, I brought a big bag of instant noodles, a bag of ham sausage, two packs of small pickles, two braised eggs, and professional equipment for instant noodles, a stainless steel lunch box, after many improvements, the specific brand of this field package is Fumanduo braised beef noodles, Shuanghui Wang's ham sausage, the kind of starch is less than or equal to 8%, and the small pickles are a brand called Little Monk, and the origin is forgotten. The braised egg is from Zhejiang, a well-known brand, and now I can't remember it, and I hate eating these things every day, so that I want to vomit when I smell the taste of instant noodles for a while.

The reason for always eating instant noodles is to save, and then my local diet is actually cheaper, you can eat a full meal for two yuan, and every noon and evening meal time, the street is full of food, and Weiqiao Town is a street. Walking through the crowded places of the hotel, you will arrive at the place where the restaurants are dense, and every household has set up large jars, large baskets and large pots at the door to sell rice. All kinds of stir-fried vegetables, steamed buns, rice are open to supply, the dishes are the cheapest vegetables on the market, the method is also very simple, put into the big pot and fry it, sprinkle some salt and oil, it seems to have a taste and oil flowers, a plastic bag full of one yuan, I bought it once, it is really difficult to swallow, but rice and steamed bread can still be eaten, the same one yuan can be eaten, porridge, soy milk, all kinds of fruits and drinks are available, it is worth mentioning that the local cold drinks and drinks, cold drinks are messy miscellaneous brands, such as cream sorbet, It's hard to eat the creamy taste, it's all additives, the drinks are even more outrageous, the thin plastic bottle doesn't know how many times it's been recycled, the lid is dirty, the logo printing is very inferior, this five-cent-a-bottle apple Fanta flavored soda tastes good, I've had the pleasure of drinking it twice.

It's hard to imagine the scene when it's time to eat, tens of thousands of young workers rush into the streets, sweeping everything they can eat like a swarm of locusts, these are sixteen or seventeen-year-old girls, wearing high hats of textile workers, wearing cheap clothes, pinning badges with different branches and workshops on their chests, buying food in groups and taking it back to the dormitory to eat, there are relatively few male workers, and the little boys are wearing fashionable T-shirts with the words Meteor Garden and F4 printed on the back of their chests,I feel pretty good.,Their sense of superiority comes from the uncoordinated ratio of men and women.,There are too many women here.,And they're all young girls.,It's said that in the town.,A bowl of rice noodles can be changed to a big girl to spend the night with you.,I think it's a bit exaggerated.,But that's the general meaning.。

Of course, there are also hotels and cities in the town that cater to high-end customers. There is nothing worth saying about the hotel, but the city is very distinctive, first it is difficult for you to find familiar goods, the shelves are full of unknown copycats, it is difficult to buy a bottle of pure water of Wahaha, what is provided here is a mineral water called Laoshan, there is a straw inserted in the bottle, it is very unappetizing, I still don't understand why the manufacturer is so designed, it is difficult to buy beer liquor, the local can produce beer liquor, the famous amber beer is the high-end brand produced by the county distillery, and the brand for the public is called Antarctica, A smell of alcohol, quite unpleasant, liquor is all produced by local miscellaneous manufacturers in Shandong, Xiaocuizhu, Fan Gong wine basket is a variety that the locals love to drink, guess how many degrees, twenty-five degrees, that is not wine at all, it is alcohol mixed with water, I can drink sixty degrees of Lao Baigan, but I am extremely afraid of this kind of liquor in the twenties, without him, on the head.

Later, the headquarters of Weiqiao Group moved to the county seat, the hotel industry in the town plummeted, and there was no longer a source of customers, I no longer went there to stay, and went to the county government guest house, the agency guest house is a very good place, located in the center of the county, there are luxurious standard rooms and ordinary public rooms, I live on the first floor of the ordinary building every time, because the first floor is a beautiful sister with long legs, the level of the organ guest house is high, the snow-white bed sheet is changed every day, hot water is available at any time, it is inconvenient to take a bath, To run to the back of the building near the tea stove near the professional bathhouse, this bathhouse seems to be open to the public, guests can rely on the daily bath ticket to enjoy, the guest house also has a restaurant, the grade is very high in the local area, I sometimes go to the tooth sacrifice, order a cucumber sting, two bottles of beer, two bowls of rice, a pot of boiled meat slices, Shandong cuisine is very sufficient, eat very full, the waiter looks at me with admiration.

The county and the town's public transportation is the same, are a kind of three-wheeled covered motorcycle, at the beginning is an ordinary three-wheeled, front straddle riding, with a carriage behind, the carriage with iron bars and plastic sheeting to tie a shed that can block the rain, and later evolved into a professional factory with a steering wheel of motorcycles, left-hand drive car, co-pilot seat can also be a person, hand crank window, with sunroof, there is a reverse gear, there is a radio, the starting price is 2 yuan, I often come out of the guest house, recruit a three-wheeled motorcycle to drive to the power plant construction site to work, It feels quite windy.

The transit station of every business trip is Jinan, every time I live in the surrounding area centered on Quancheng Square, or just started on a business trip, I always like to find a cheap place to live, once I walked on the road with a bag, and saw a place called Baotu Spring Hotel, the price is quite cheap, so I walked in and asked, the boss picked up a bunch of keys and took me to the ground, it turned out that this was a hotel with an air-raid shelter, through the heavy gate (I guess it can prevent atomic bombs) is a hall of more than 100 bungalows, which supports dozens of beds, and the beds are scattered with quilts, I was shocked in an instant, this is even more terrible than the migrant worker shed I have lived in, but the price is worthy of this condition, only five yuan a night. I didn't dare to live here, so I asked the boss if there was anything better, the boss took me on, came to a narrow aisle, the dim electric lights flashed overhead, on both sides were rows of iron doors, he opened an iron door and said to me: this is a single room, sixteen yuan a day, there is a bed in it, there is still a quilt that can not see the age, and the quilt can be pinched out of the water, I believe that I don't need to say that everyone can also think of the similarities between this kind of room and the prison, or the eerie dungeon.

In the end, I didn't dare to live here, I chose another resistance hotel, a certain hostel opposite the provincial traditional Chinese medicine, enter the door to register, the porter gives you a red plastic accommodation certificate, and then with this to the upstairs to open a room for accommodation, the difference between the hotel and the guesthouse is that the guest does not have the key, every time the waiter comes to open the door, I have lived in the treasure of their store, the only smallest single room, which can only accommodate a single bed, even a chair can not be placed, there is a folding wooden board on the windowsill, There is a twelve-inch TV set that can play snow scenes, and if you are a friend of the post-80s, you may have to call it a big brother.

In view of the fact that there are more patients staying in this hotel, I went to other places, and found a community hotel near Chaoshan Street, the room is changed from a residential building, the condition is relatively good, open the window to see the advertisement on the four-star hotel Yuquan Senxin Building, I once got off from the train station, took a taxi and let the driver go straight to Yuquan Senxin, and waited for the small guy at the door to come and pull the car door, I walked out in a dignified manner, turned around and went to the community hotel next to it, very Stephen Chow from the Regent Hotel to the Regent Hotel charm.
