Chapter 41 All Connected
"Okay, Gao Zhan, you follow my car and take you to a good place today." Lee Ming-che bent down into the backseat door that the driver had opened for him, lowered the window and said to Gao Zhan.
Gao Zhan made an OK gesture to Lee Ming-che and took Bai Lu to pick up the car.
While walking, Gao Zhan took out his mobile phone and called his mother.
It rang only twice, and the phone was connected.
"Son, how did you do on the exam?"
"Mom, I did well in the exam this time, and it's no problem to get the last one!"
"That's great, son, you've been away from home for almost a year, when will you come back?"
"Mom, when I get the admission letter, I'll come back to see you and Dad."
"Mmmm, if your dad saw the acceptance letter, he would be very happy. You don't know, he is now in the unit, and everyone says that he has a good son, and now he can write novels online and make a lot of money. However, every time, there are people who are jealous of him who use your failure to get into college to squeeze your dad. ”
"Mom, you tell Dad, I will definitely be able to go to college this time, and it is a key university!"
"Good, good! Son, remember to call Mom before you go home, Mom and your dad are good at home and get ready. ”
"Hmmm! Mom, I'm not at home, you and Dad must take good care of your health. ”
"Good son, it seems that you have really become more sensible this year, and my mother is really happy and happy."
Listening to his mother's sobbing sound of joy on the mobile phone, Gao Zhan couldn't help but have a sour nose, "Mom, I miss you so much." ”
"Son, Mom misses you too, when you're tired of playing outside, go home, no matter whether you can be admitted to college or not, Mom and your dad won't blame you."
"Don't worry! Mom, I definitely won't disappoint you and Dad this time, Mom, I still have something to do here, so I won't tell you more, I'll hang up. ”
"Hang it, the mobile phone fee is quite expensive."
Silently closed the phone, Gao Zhan stopped, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, and then spit it out vigorously.
"Brother, were you talking to our mother just now?" Bai Lu took his outstretched arm and asked softly with a little shyness.
A "our mother" was heard in Gao Zhan's heart, which was both sweet and a little heavy.
"Well, when I get the admission letter, I will take you and Sister Ying home to see our mother." Gao Zhan caressed Bai Lu's head as he walked.
"Hmm!" Bei Yan bit her lower lip lightly, and Bai Lu nodded softly in reply.
After picking up the car in the parking lot outside the No. 12 Middle School, he slowly drove towards the school gate with Bai Lu. Seeing Gao Zhan riding over, Li Mingzhe waved his hand to the driver, "Drive, Jiangyuan Resort." ”
Jiangyuan Resort is located in the beautiful Fengcheng Shawan Scenic Area by the crystal clear Tuojiang River, the inn is built on the mountain, the appearance is simple and elegant, the eaves are flying.
Departing from Fengcheng No. 12 Middle School, it took almost forty minutes before arriving at the destination.
Under the guidance of the welcoming lady dressed in the Miao family's costumes, Li Mingzhe took Gao Zhan and Bai Lu to the Linjiang Pavilion on the third floor that he had booked.
Standing on the edge of the bamboo railing, Gao Zhan observed the beautiful scenery in front of him very freely.
At dusk on the Tuojiang River, the wind is blowing and it is gradually cool.
The comfortable evening breeze blows slowly from the riverside, and the smoke rising above the mountain villa gathers with the light mist floating by the riverside, and soon spreads over the entire river. Layers of mountains and greenery, forests and green onions, and then in a blink of an eye, they are shrouded in the vast expanse.
From time to time, you can see women dressed in various ethnic minority costumes, beating clothes with mallets and mallets on the stone slabs by the river, and the sound of the crackling mallets, the rhythm is distinct, one after another, like the drum sound that leads the song and dance of Miao Village.
As far as the eye can see, rows of stilted buildings stand near the river, by the mountains and rivers, row upon row, cascading up, the old and old are high and low, one building after another, one eaves next to the eaves, wall after wall, shoulder to shoulder, high and crowded on the river bank. All of them are dressed in black and all are green tiles, and under the backdrop of Phoenix Mountain in the distance, they are clearly layered and neatly stretching from west to east.
"Big brother, this ancient city is really beautiful!" Gao Zhan looked back at Li Mingzhe and praised with emotion.
Li Mingzhe held a cigarette between his fingers, slowly walked to Gao Zhan's side, looked at the Phoenix Mountain in the distance by the railing, and said leisurely: "This city is not only beautiful, but also very cultural, not only the scenery here is good, but also the feng shui." Xiong Xiling, the first democratically elected prime minister of the Republic of China, Shen Congwen, a world giant, Huang Yongyu, a genius in the painting world, and Ye Yucui, a master of Chinese arts and crafts, are all well-known national representative talents at home and abroad bred in this land. ”
Gao Zhan nodded and replied, "Yes! According to historical records, from the 20th year of Daoguang of the Qing Dynasty (1840) to the first year of Guangxu of the Qing Dynasty (1875) in just 36 years, there were 20 commanders, 21 total soldiers, 43 adjutant generals, 31 generals, 73 guerrillas and other officers of the third grade or above. During the Republic of China, Fengcheng produced 7 lieutenant generals and 27 major generals. ”
Glancing at Gao Zhan with a little surprise, Li Mingzhe smiled: "I can't see it, you know a lot about this city!" ”
Gao Zhan smiled, touched his bare head, and replied: "As an outsider, I have been here for almost a year, and of course I need to check some information related to the local area." ”
"Such an ancient city with infinite scenery and outstanding people, if it can't be managed and governed well in my hands, you say, am I committing a crime?" Li Mingzhe spat out thick smoke in his mouth, looked at a flat boat on the Tuojiang River in the distance with a little gloomy eyes, and said in a low voice.
Over the past month or so, Lee Ming-che has been a little overwhelmed by the various problems that have emerged one after another. In the face of Fengcheng's current economic development, he has a kind of emptiness and strength, but he can't start.
The mess left by Liu Jinsheng seems to be the only solution in addition to attracting investment and attracting large amounts of foreign capital, but when Li Mingzhe attracted investors through his connections, he suddenly found that if he relied on foreign capital, Fengcheng would be like a bottomless black hole, and no matter how much money was thrown into it, it would be difficult to see any obvious effect.
Looking at the gloom and depression on Li Mingzhe's knife-like angular face, Gao Zhan's heart moved, "Big brother, I think it's ......"
It was as if he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and he wanted to speak and stopped.
"What do you think? Let's listen to it, even if it's not right, are you still afraid that your eldest brother will blame you? "Lee Ming-che is really a little sick and rushes to the doctor now, and I want to hear if my brother, who can write novels, has any high opinions.
Gao Zhan lowered his head and was silent for a while, then raised his eyes to look at Li Mingzhe and said, "Big brother, that's the case, in the new book I'm writing now, the dilemma faced by the protagonist is a bit similar to your current situation. ”
"Oh?!" Li Mingzhe looked at Gao Zhan with great interest and smiled: "Then how did you let the protagonist solve it in the novel?" ”
Gao Zhan raised his hand again and touched Guangguang's head, plucked up the courage to say: "In my book, the protagonist is a declining nobleman who is excluded by others, and he is sent to a wild place that leads the Warcraft Forest, where there is no arable land, except for the hills are forests and barren mountains. My protagonist is a modern man who has traveled over, he uses the perspective of modern people, and finds that his territory is not useless, the Warcraft Forest is an inexhaustible forest resource and hunting resource, and the barren mountains where the black iron dwarves live are full of various mineral resources that can be mined, and the tribes where the elves live, the scenery is beautiful, and it is a natural tourist resource. My protagonist has no foreign aid, so it is impossible to attract foreign investment, so he can only integrate those dwarves, elves, goblins, and orcs who are equivalent to ethnic minorities through his personality charm, bind them together with common interests, base themselves on the local area, vigorously tap potential, integrate resources, and finally develop a three-way zone that no one cares about into a super city-state with a prosperous economy. ”
"Based on the local area, vigorously tap the potential and integrate resources. Based on the local area, vigorously tap the potential, and integrate resources......" Li Mingzhe muttered to himself and repeated these twelve words, suddenly, his eyes lit up, he slapped it on the bamboo railing hard, and said loudly: "Yes! How come I never thought of this question? Why should I bother with attracting investment? Based on the local area, adapting measures to local conditions, digging deep potential, and integrating resources, this should be the direction I should exert my efforts! ”
Lee Ming-che's mood at this time was obviously a little excited, he kept walking back and forth, and he didn't know what to say to himself.
Gao Zhan ignored Li Mingzhe's excitement and continued: "As far as I know, "1.138 million acres of grassland can be turned into a large-scale pasture, so that local ethnic minorities can contribute, and the political axe will provide start-up funds to vigorously develop animal husbandry;
The forest area of 998.67 square kilometers can be turned into a natural wild vegetable planting field to develop green and pollution-free wild vegetable planting.
Diamond, mercury, lead and zinc, cement limestone, anthracite, stone coal, marble, silica, antimony and other 35 kinds of mineral deposits 279 private small mines can be through the political axe to introduce preferential policies, the integration of resources to form several large-scale mining groups, and then the integration of several separate management of chaotic scenic spots, led by the political axe to set up a tourism group, etc., to do this, can be completely based on the local area, fully mobilize the active surnames of locals and ethnic minority residents, as long as their vitality is fully burst out, I believe, There's still a lot to be done. ”
Li Mingzhe stared at Gao Zhan like he was looking at an alien, and his eyes were even sharper than seeing his beloved lover who had reunited after a long absence, because what Gao Zhan just said was exactly what he was thinking about in his mind, but it was not as complete as Gao Zhan thought.
"How did you come up with this?" Li Mingzhe clutched Gao Zhan's arm tightly and asked excitedly.
"Khan, big brother, I'm thinking about this nonsense, I haven't done market research, I haven't done a feasible surname analysis, at best it's just an idea." Gao Zhan said embarrassedly.
"What I'm missing now is ideas!" Lee Ming-che patted his thigh and shouted.
The rivers and lakes have a little trick, and it is worthless.
But often when people fall into a blind corner of thinking, it is difficult to break their heads and get out of the rigid inherent thinking.
Attracting investment is an artifact offered to almost all cities engaged in economic development, and Lee Ming-che has been misled by this concept before, and like most officials think, he thinks that foreign monks can recite scriptures, and he has not thought about how to base himself on this policy in the local area.
Being reminded by Gao Zhan just now made Lee Mingzhe feel like he had found a guiding light in the dark.
With the lighting of this guiding lamp, coupled with the flexible thinking and mind that Lee Ming-che already has, a new bright road for Fengcheng's economic development has taken shape in his mind little by little.
"Hahaha! Gao Zhan, I really didn't expect you to write a novel and have to think about these economic issues! Good brother, thank you for waking up, you helped the big brother solve the big problem! Li Mingzhe patted Gao Zhan's shoulder and laughed loudly, the original depression and decadence on his face were swept away, and he was replaced by a passion for guiding the country to develop its ambitions.
"Big brother, I'm just talking nonsense, don't take it seriously. Otherwise, if it spoils your big thing, I will not be responsible for a hundred deaths! Gao Zhan looked at Li Mingzhe very solemnly and said, not at all because he was praised by Li Mingzhe.
"Brother, you're not talking nonsense, you're a bystander, and I'm a fan of the authorities!" Li Mingzhe said with emotion: "I've always been dark under the lights, and it's a shame to have the nonsense you just said, otherwise, the eldest brother doesn't know how long he will have to grope on this black road to break out." ”
was praised by Li Mingzhe again, Gao Zhan raised his hand and touched his bald head, and said a little embarrassed: "Big brother, in fact, I have always had confidence in you, knowing that you will definitely be able to think of a good way to solve the current problem." ”
"Say no more, drink! Hahaha! Li Mingzhe took Gao Zhan's shoulders in a very happy mood, walked back to the table where five or six dishes had been served, opened the twenty-year-old bottle of Moutai he brought, took three cups, and filled them all, looking at Bai Lu, who had been sitting there quietly watching him and Gao Zhan chat, and said with a smile: "Today is a happy day, Lulu, you also have a drink, I know that you can drink, but I definitely don't let you drink more, otherwise Gao Zhan will definitely have to be anxious with me." ”
Bai Lu bit her lip lightly and glanced at Gao Zhan.
"Drink! Lulu, it's rare to see the eldest brother in such a good mood. Gao Zhan smiled and nodded.
The three of them raised their wine glasses, and Li Mingzhe smiled heartily: "This glass, congratulations to Gao Zhan, my good brother, admitted to university, and has a bright future!" ”
Three white porcelain wine glasses touched together, and Li Mingzhe, Gao Zhan, and Bai Lu raised their glasses at the same time and drank them all.
Li Mingzhe took Moutai, filled the three small cups again, and said with a smile: "The second cup, I wish my good brother a high exhibition, a big sale of new books, and become famous all over the world in one fell swoop, and become a great god on the road of online writing, and write more popular masterpieces!" ”
The three of them were in a good mood and drank the second cup.
Filling the empty cup with wine again, Li Mingzhe's eyes wandered on Gao Zhan and Bai Lu's faces with love, and said with a smile: "This third cup, I wish you both happiness and an early birth to a precious son!" Hahaha! ”
After speaking, Li Mingzhe didn't care what Bai Lu's reaction was, and took the lead in drinking the wine in the cup.
Li Mingzhe's sentence "born a noble son early" naturally made Bai Lu even red at the root of his ears after hearing it, Bai Lu stomped his little feet and glanced at Li Mingzhe, and said coquettishly: "Brother Mingzhe is the worst." ”
After speaking, Bai Lu peeked at Gao Zhan.
Gao Zhan smiled naturally and said, "Lulu, drink, thank you for the blessing of the eldest brother!" ”
Bai Lu shyly picked up the cup and touched it with Gao Zhan, and drank it on his back.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Li Mingzhe's good mood also greatly increased Gao Zhan's appetite. The three of them ate a table full of game, and chatted and laughed about the interesting things around them.
At this time, the waiter served a vegetarian fried wild vegetables, Bai Lu took a bite, looked at Gao Zhan in surprise and said, "Brother, isn't this the purslane we have eaten in the village?" How can this kind of dish be served on the table of the hotel? ”
Gao Zhan stretched out his chopsticks and chewed two purslanes deliciously, and said with a smile: "Lulu, don't you know, now people in the city are popular to eat the original and pollution-free new flavors, in your eyes the worthless wild vegetables that no one eats, in the city at least sell dozens of dollars a catty, just take this plate of wild vegetables, according to the grade of this hotel, the lowest price will not be less than eighty yuan!" ”
"Faint to death, wild vegetables can be sold for so much money, so aren't the mountains behind our village full of money!?" Bai Lu looked at Gao Zhan suspiciously, and then turned his gaze to Li Mingzhe, hoping to get the correct answer from the county elder's mouth.
Don't look at Gao Zhan taking Bai Lu to the city to go to school for so long, it is really the first time that she has been allowed to eat this kind of wild vegetable in a luxury hotel, which in her eyes is only eaten by people who have no money.
"Lulu, Gao Zhan is right, in fact, the mountains and forests where you lived before were full of wealth." Li Mingzhe nodded and replied: "If the wild vegetables in the mountains can be developed into professional planting, Baijia Village can also get rid of poverty and become rich." ”
"Although there are many wild vegetables in the village, transportation is a big problem." Gao Zhan said with a frown.
"The way is made by man. The bearded boss in the village, doesn't he often have to carry a basket full of groceries into the mountains? If he carried a basket full of wild vegetables into the city to sell, he would probably make more money than he would make by pouring out those miscellaneous items. ”
"Brother, this summer, let's go back to the village to pick wild vegetables and sell them in the city, okay?" When Bai Lu heard that this wild vegetable could be sold for a lot of money, how could he not be moved, and asked Gao Zhan with a blank look.
"Lulu, your task is to study hard, not to earn money." Gao Zhan looked at Bai Lu Zhengse and said, "It's my brother's business to earn money to support my family, don't worry about this." ”
After a pause, Gao Zhan continued: "What's more, although you can sell a plate for eighty yuan here, it doesn't mean that you can sell it for this money, let alone ...... Once there are more of these things, they will be worthless, and the price will definitely fall quickly, it is easy to get rid of poverty by him, but it is difficult to get rich. ”
"Oh." Bai Lu muttered angrily, very disappointed in her heart, and the idea of reducing the burden on the family was instantly shattered.
"The establishment of a special wild vegetable purchasing company, village by village, door-to-door collection, may also be a way." Li Mingzhe tapped his fingers lightly on the tabletop while muttering to himself: "If you brand wild vegetables and enter the major supermarkets across the country, the benefits will definitely be good......
From this inconspicuous wild vegetable, and then thinking of so many various resources in the Fengcheng Mountains, Li Mingzhe felt more and more that Gao Zhan reminded him of the four words of being based in the local area, which was really valuable!
Writing an online novel also involves economic knowledge.,It seems that there are quite a lot of doorways in this online novel.,You have to study it well if you have the opportunity.。
"By the way, Gao Zhan, how is your new book doing now?" Li Mingzhe asked as he put a purslane in his mouth while looking at Gao Zhan.
"Brother Mingzhe, my brother's new book is going to be published in Taiwan." Bai Lu said proudly to Lee Ming-che, her beautiful big eyes were full of pride, as if she was going to publish a physical book, and the little unhappiness in her heart before was thrown out of the clouds by her at once.
"Really?!" Lee Ming-che was a little surprised. In his opinion, being able to publish a physical book, whether it is traditional or simplified, is a real writer, after all, there is a difference between a writer and a writer.
"Hmm!" Gao Zhan smiled and nodded and replied: "The contract and authorization have been signed and sent to Taiwan, and it is estimated that it will not be long before you can see the traditional physical book I wrote." ”
"Not bad, this is a great good thing, and it's worth a big float!" Li Mingzhe looked at Gao Zhan with satisfaction and said with a smile: "Being able to produce an entity shows that writing a novel is really famous, and when the book is published, you must sign a few sets for me!" ”
"My brother said, his first set of autographs, give it to me!" Bai Lu smiled at Li Mingzhe very proudly.
Tonight's celebration really surprised Lee Ming-che again and again.
He never thought that Gao Zhan would also care about the problems he was currently encountering, and helped him think of a feasible idea. Although this is only an unproven idea, based on the situation that Lee Ming-che has mastered at the grassroots level during this time, it is judged that this idea can be fully implemented.
Hearing Gao Zhan say that these ideas were all written by him in novels, and now that the new book has been published in traditional Chinese in Taiwan, Lee Ming-che really didn't expect Gao Zhan to write so many famous online novels.
In the process of chatting with Gao Zhan about his new book, Li Mingzhe suddenly discovered that his brother's knowledge was really not ordinarily broad, although it was miscellaneous but not refined, but for a young man who was less than 20 years old, it was already very valuable.
Thinking that Gao Zhan had just finished the college entrance examination, Li Mingzhe's heart moved, looked at Gao Zhan thoughtfully, and asked, "Xiao Zhan, have you ever thought about which major to choose after going to college?" ”
Gao Zhan pondered for a while and replied: "I used to be admitted to university for the sake of taking the university entrance examination, but since I entered the profession of a writer, I have a deep understanding of the ancient adage of 'hate less when the book is used'. I don't have any other skills, maybe writing is my best way out in the future, after all, now is a little foundation, the purpose of my university is to make myself on the skills of writing, as well as the knowledge of various disciplines to learn systematically, so as to improve their ability in creation, writing for logical thinking requirements are relatively strict, therefore, I plan to choose the Department of Philosophy. ”
"Philosophy?" Li Mingzhe nodded lightly and said: "Philosophy is a relatively unpopular major for college students nowadays, and only those who have a special pursuit of learning will choose this major. ”
"Yes, big brother." Gao Zhan nodded and smiled: "Another reason why I chose the Department of Philosophy is because I have compared various majors on the Internet. ”
(To be continued)
