Chapter 11: The Frog Building
Haimo City, Chaobai Street, Houxidi Garden Community.
Just in the morning, there is a positive force in the city that refreshes people. Each time he returned after two months underground, he felt as if he had been separated by a few springs and autumns.
There was a lot of traffic around, cars rumbled constantly, and everyone who just woke up greeted the sun and chased the light of the new day.
Hou Liqing had already changed into casual clothes, stood at the entrance of the community, and took a deep breath.
Suddenly, he turned around, as if he had eyes behind his back, and hugged Hou Zeze, who ran out, into his arms. This suddenly, frightened Hou Zeze 'Wow, wow, wow'.
Behind Hou Zeze, at the entrance of the community, a woman with a mature temperament smiled at this scene, a family of three harmonious and beautiful.
watched him throw Hou Zeze high and heard Hou Zeze's exclamation. Reaching out to catch it, Hou Liqing put Hou Zeze into the car, and when the woman next to him sat in the back row, Hou Liqing closed the door and said with a smile: "Xiao Ze, are you ready? Let's go." ”
He looked happy, like a big kid.
"Let's go!" Hou Zeze stretched out his fist, and his father was also very excited when he came back.
The woman kissed Hou Zeze, causing Hou Zeze to hide in shame.
At this time, she patted Hou Liqing, who was sitting in the front seat and was about to drive, on the shoulder, and advised: "Don't be arrogant later, you may meet that adult this time." ”
"Don't worry, dear. Originally, Hou Liqing wanted to add, even if it didn't look at his face, it had to look at the face of money. I was just about to say this, but when I thought of Hou Zeze, I closed my mouth tightly again.
The thick sweetness in his eyes couldn't be stopped at all, and while turning the steering wheel, thinking that Hou Zeze was valued by that adult, he couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Son, you are awesome, Dad is proud of you." ”
The little boy's face turned even redder when he heard this, and he sat in the back seat and didn't speak, so he shook his little feet with a shy smile and looked at Hou Liqing's face in the rearview mirror.
Hou Liqing stared at him, his eyes were right, he grinned twice, turned around, and drove the car smoothly into the traffic.
The steel jungle is just like 3,000 years ago, after the original heaven and earth changed, all the buildings became wreckage due to the expansion and extension of the earth, but then the city style was restored again in a crowded place.
In the earliest days, in the land where the original beast was wanton, the one who established a new empire was not the former big capitalist.
They used their wealth to build their own 'manor', and because they chose profits, they reduced scientific research and increased hunting.
The world has changed, and the Force has stepped onto the stage. The former oil and coal mines have undergone qualitative changes, increasing the attributes of the Force.
The originally cautious big capitalists, after the successful implementation of the Tinder Plan, began to do whatever they wanted, treating human life as a mustard, and living an arrogant and erosive life every day.
It was this kind of freewheeling behavior that caused frequent dynastic changes in the initial period of the Great Change.
And after 3,000 years, the current situation in the empire is relatively stable. The citizens of the empire were given more human rights, and the autonomy of Ayutthaya was a fertile ground for the growth of new, home-grown capitalists, although it stabilized the regime.
Hou Liqing, as an ordinary person and an exploited party, can feel these most clearly and intuitively.
But those who govern have a lot of daily affairs, and they can't really see it. And such a system is so deep-rooted, how can it be so easy to change.
This is the reason why Xiao Shen has become Hou Liqing's role model, and in his opinion, it is amazing.
The Xiao family, an ordinary family, was born in this Heimo City, which is run by a big family.
At the age of twenty years, he got the order of the city lord. That's it, he actually single-handedly pressed the Wang family, the overlord of the land, to raise his head, this is really remarkable, he once struggled with Xiao Shen as the goal, but in the end he was still busy.
The newborn sun heralds new life.
He heard that in the far east, there was a country called the Han Empire. After the great changes in heaven and earth, it developed with its unique system superiority and unity, and in just a hundred years, it made concerted efforts to pacify the chaotic territory after the enlargement, and became a place of pilgrimage for the surrounding empires. Among them, there are many large sects, transcendent schools, geniuses everywhere, and the original qi is like rain, and it is subject to the dynasty from all directions.
It's just too far, too far. I haven't even been out of the Tuya Empire, I haven't even been to the mainland, let alone the more distant legendary places in the east of the continent.
Retracting his thoughts, Hou Li secretly laughed at himself, and then looked in the rearview mirror, and his son and wife were already asleep in the car.
He pointed out the country in his heart and sat and watched the ebb and flow of the tide because he was just an ordinary person.
He wants to enter this country and mountains, and if he has the opportunity, with his strength, he will be able to step into the upper circle.
He has been looking for opportunities, but reality has forced him to go along the original trajectory, and reality does not allow his life to be uneven. Therefore, in the five years since he became a second-order primordial, he has never found that circle.
Even two months ago, because Hou Zeze learned the piano, he spent a lot of money, so that the original housing loan, car loan, etc. were relatively balanced with income, and the situation of being able to save a little money was broken again, and life was a little embarrassed.
There is no comparison with Wang Zhuang, a guy who lives with his mother and has no mortgage, but he has a son.
Every time Hou Liqing thinks of this, his heart warms. From the size of a palm to the current appearance, his relief, happiness, and joy are not enough for outsiders.
An hour and a half later, Hou Liqing drove steadily into the parking lot.
Raised his head casually, and then looked around the parking lot, only to see luxury cars all over the ground, which made his smile a little more restrained, and even a little more restrained. Money and power are disgusting when they talk about it, but they are always scary when they are really faced.
After getting out of the car, helping his wife open the car door, and seeing her come out with the sleepy-eyed Hou Zeze, Hou Liqing took a close look at the building in front of him for the first time.
It stands out in this jungle of steel, like an oasis in the desert.
I don't know which designer designed it, so beautiful and detailed.
The rough texture of the building materials is piled up to create a huge piano-like building, and below the pedals is the hall, and the hall and the attic above, the piano case, are connected by two elevators like ribbons. On it, the black and white keys carry the crystallization of modern technology, and the huge body directly covers the parking lot facing west, not seeing the sky and light, so as to make it even more towering and straight.
This is the Frog Building.
Hou Liqing's face was full of yearning: "Frost interpreter Flogg, the leader of the Haimo trend, and the strong man alongside the Iron Wings Xiao Shen." ”
It's really enviable, Hou Liqing sighed from the bottom of his heart.
But when he looked behind him and saw his son looking at the piano excitedly, all his sighs were shattered, and only sweetness and beauty remained.
"Come, Ozawa, Daddy hug you. ”
"There are so many people, let's go. The woman was used to this, so she glanced at Hou Liqing, pulled the two of them and walked forward. She has long been familiar with this place, and she will come here every day after work to pick up Hou Zeze and go home, and the gap with others and the grandeur of this building have long been the same as usual.
Inside, the style is simple ice and snow wind, as soon as you step in, there is a cool influx, emptying the impetuousness at the bottom of the heart, making the whole body ethereal.
The illuminations at the top are like stars in the sky, shining brightly, reflecting the ice fields beneath your feet, as if you have come to another world. The living room on the periphery alone highlights the luxury of the owner to the extreme.
Hou Liqing sighed in his heart, but he pretended to be calm, it was not okay to perform poorly in front of his son, he was the father, the teacher of his son's initial personality, and he must be the most majestic.
Walking inward, you can see the models of musical instruments in the glass houses on both sides, including small pianos, violins, small saxophones, etc., among which because of the dignity of Floge, the piano is called the honor of musical instruments, and it is placed in the center, which is extremely conspicuous.
Hou Liqing thought of his son, and then he saw the expectation of this small model in his son's eyes, seeing that his son was very reluctant but resolutely took his eyes away, for fear of being seen by him, Hou Liqing felt bitter in his heart.
These instruments are clearly priced, even the cheapest ones cost 100,000 Haimo coins, not to mention Hou Zeze's favorite piano model, the price is 500,000.
Some money must be spent, but how can he bear to spend this 500,000 yuan, Hou Liqing only feels that his heart hurts, hurts his son's sensibility, and hurts his poverty.
Holding back the pain and keeping the expectant look in his heart, Hou Liqing didn't dare to stay.
Entering the main hall, the voices began to be noisy but the heart was quiet, and this strange state continued.
There are a lot of people here, and they are all sending their children to class.
It seems that they all brought bodyguards, and the bodyguards who were not too conspicuous in civilian clothes were instantly eye-catching when compared with those nobles who wore famous brands.
At least Hou Liqing's eyes were pierced, and others may have gotten used to it.
Living in a crowd, people lose their sensitivity and are assimilated, and sensitive people, as long as they are in the crowd, will be rich sooner or later.
Hou Liqing secretly clenched his fists to cheer himself up, and his desire to enter a higher circle and make more money also reached a peak.
The reality is really easy to arouse people's fighting spirit.
Early in the morning, Chen Qian made a morning at home, and a family of three came over after eating beautifully. At that time, when I saw Hou Zeze's sleepy appearance, I thought about enduring it and passing it.
But at this time, seeing these people, they are in this ice field-like hall, spending high prices, enjoying a delicious breakfast, as if they came out for a picnic.
They don't have to wake up early, they can wait for the arrival of their child's private teacher, and they can even have breakfast with the private teacher.
And he has no money, and he even takes his son to suffer with him, it's really-
"We're not like them. Chen Qian looked at Hou Liqing's appearance and whispered. She held Hou Liqing with her left hand and Hou Ze with her right hand, and walked directly to the front.
This family of three has attracted the attention of some people, because in this environment, they seem too ordinary, and the ordinariness here is too prominent.
In the past, coming with his mother would not cause any ideas at all, but at this moment, feeling the eyes around him, the sensitive Hou Zeze's face turned red in an instant, and then he buried his head directly, very shy.
"Hahaha, this kid, it's interesting. A middle-aged man who had just raised his head to look here said to his friend next to him.
"It's weird, I guess I'm here to inquire about the tuition fees of the big class. The friend nodded and laughed.
He hadn't paid attention to this child before, but looking at this child's parents, even the most ordinary large class, it didn't seem like they could afford the tuition. Of course, his self-cultivation makes him not directly say this judgment, after all, ordinary people, who are also people, will also be slapped in the face.
Moreover, there are many pretending criminals who deliberately wear ordinary clothes.
