When several people from the Foreign Factory and the Intelligence Department of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion were struggling to kill Chai Guoyi, Zhou Changfeng, who was reading the book, ushered in an uninvited guest.

There was a knock on the door, and Xiao Li's voice came in, "Battalion commander, that Miss Xia is looking for you." ”

"Aha?" Zhou Changfeng put down the "Mobile Force Combat Compendium" in his hand, walked over and opened the door, and said in surprise: "What about people? ”

These days, his correspondence with Xia Xiaoshi has not stopped, and although he does not have that heart-pounding feeling for this very fateful girl, he still has a good feeling.

In the past half a month, combined with the previous meetings, Zhou Changfeng thinks that he has a general understanding of her character.

But what's the situation when you come to the door out of nowhere?

Five minutes later, the south gate of the barracks of the 3rd Mixed Brigade garrison.

Midsummer in Nanjing is unbelievably hot, and the sound of cicadas in the trees around the station is heard one after another.

Xia Xiaoshi, dressed in black and white, held a small bag, an umbrella, and a folding fan, waiting around in place as if no one was around.

The hairpin of yellow rosewood, the long skirt of black and gray pleated, the inner layer is a white straight-sleeved undershirt, and the outer layer is a black short shirt, and the clothes are all a blend of cotton yarn and artificial viscose fiber, which is very light.

"What are you doing with this big sun?"

Zhou Changfeng, who was wearing a hat-like wide-brimmed hat, raised his head, squinted and glanced at the hot sun and was dazzled, and then looked at Xia Xiaoshi in front of him.

The latter blinked, and rightly said, "Didn't you say in your letter the other day that you had comprehended the true meaning of life?" He said he wanted to repay me well, so I came. ”

Zhou Changfeng was slightly embarrassed, he did write this in the previous letter-"...... After experiencing the dangers of the battlefield, I realized the preciousness of life, and recently I have thought a lot before going to bed at night, and I have a little understanding of the true meaning of life, so I am more and more fortunate to have that jade pendant to prevent disasters...... I'll treat you to a big meal another day to make up for my gratitude......

Just as the words of many people in later generations in chat software are almost similar to those in real life, Zhou Changfeng is also a bit similar.

As a result, it's only been a few days, and Xia Xiaoshi is really here?

In terms of time, the letter probably just arrived, and she came the next day?

You can't wait to eat and drink, right?

He asked, "When did you receive the letter?" ”

"Yesterday afternoon, and then I thought about what to eat, the cheaper Qin Huai Bajue has to walk the streets and alleys, I think since you said you want to eat something good, then just go to a restaurant." She said unceremoniously.

Good guy, I guessed it, you're really welcome.

Zhou Changfeng smiled, raised his hand and looked at his watch, and then said to Xiao Li who came with him: "I'm going to have a dinner with you, and I'll come back at the latest, and I will let Liu Qidong act as an agent if I have something urgent." ”

After speaking, he brushed his collar and made a gesture of please.

Well? What do you mean? The scorching sun... Walk over???

Xia Xiaoshi looked at Zhou Changfeng with a puzzled gaze, the latter did not know why.

Puzzled, she asked, "You... Don't drive? ”

Zhou Changfeng coughed dryly, and said: "I'm inviting guests to dinner, not going to do errands, public and private should be clearly distinguished, how can I use public and private weapons?" ”

"Then why did you drive alone that day? There are usually people driving for business errands. ”

On the day of the collision, "Zhou Changfeng" was indeed on official business, and he had already returned to the station, but suddenly found that something had fallen on the garrison command and envoy, so he hurriedly drove himself to pick it up.

Listening to his explanation, Xia Xiaoshi was a little speechless, and she felt that Zhou Changfeng was deliberately teasing her.

"But it's so hot this day, it's so troublesome to walk to the tram stop......" her eyes rolled, and at the same time closed the folding fan, "It's better to do this, I'll pay for the gas." ”

It seems impossible to refute this, and to be honest, this kind of driving is really nothing, as long as you don't go too far, you will turn a blind eye.

Zhou Changfeng felt that he was probably the only one who would remember this rule, and change it to someone else... Not at all.

The two of them finally set off in a car.

This is a Thunderbolt 16 off-road vehicle produced by Swift Company, which is the first self-designed light off-road vehicle of Daming, with four-wheel drive, five-speed transmission, 920 kg, and 45 horsepower four-cylinder engine.

The Thunderbolt series is an off-road vehicle exclusively for military use, and the serial number specification of light off-road vehicles is 6, 16, 26, and so on, and the planned heavy-duty off-road vehicles are 8, 18, 28, and so on.

Due to China's vast territory and complex geographical environment, road conditions have always been a major problem for the imperial court, and Tsarist Russia has also suffered from this problem, so both have always attached great importance to the research and development of off-road vehicles.

However, the similarity between Tsarist Russia and Daming is that their automobile industry started very late, the former did not establish the Gorky Automobile Plant with the help of Ford in the United States until ten years ago, but after only a few years, production soared to tens of thousands of cars a year, which is characterized by the main production of trucks, accounting for more than eighty percent.

In terms of the type of automobile production, the same is true of the Ming Dynasty, which is inevitable as a late-developing industrial country with a huge population - the output is limited, and the supply must be given priority.

Yanjing Xunjie, Shanghai Junda, Wuhan Yangyue, the three major companies support today's Daming automobile industry, of which Xunjie and Yangyue companies mainly produce trucks and military off-road vehicles; Junda Company is more balanced, and the proportion of car production is about 40%.

Although the total output of the three last year was only more than 70,000 vehicles, but its development is also advancing day by day, for example, at the end of this year, Yangyue company built a new production line with an annual output of 25,000 trucks will be put into operation, and the other two companies also have their development plans, and it is expected that Daming will be able to increase the annual output of cars to 130,000 within three years.

"So you've figured out where to go? Take the Stone Gate into the city or go around the Jubao Gate? ”

"Hmm... Stone City Gate. Xia Xiaoshi thought for a while and gestured: "After entering, turn right, walk along Chaotiangong Avenue all the way, and then go right to Youshi Street ......."

"Stop." Zhou Changfeng glanced at her sideways and said puzzledly: "Oil Market Street? Then why don't you just go to the city through the Three Mountains Gate? ”

As far as the name is concerned, the main roads have all been upgraded from the ancient name of XX Street to XX Avenue, but people just call it casually.

Obviously, passing through the Sanshan Gate is the oil market avenue, why do you want to walk around?

Xia Xiaoshi said: "It's not good to go to the Sanshan Gate, you have to pass through Xiyuan." ”

The West Garden was built next to Mochou Lake, which served as the site of the Royal Gardens and the Imperial Hotel, and was home to many patrolling and standing guards.

She felt that this seemed a bit swaggering, like dancing in front of the teacher.

"You're pretty good at thinking for me." Zhou Changfeng smiled dumbly, and then continued: "It's more convenient to go through the Sanshan Gate." ”

In fact, there is another reason that he wants to stop by to see a place, a place that only he remembers.
