Qingteng Ancient Town is located in a remote area, surrounded by mountains, and has a total population of less than 10,000 permanent residents, but the people here are simple, and the residents live and work in peace and contentment, as if living in a paradise.

A highway that connects to the nearest city of Jinyang.

Nearly 200 kilometers are traveled, and buses come and go only once a week.

Xu Yi has not left Qingteng Ancient Town for seven years, and lives in seclusion in the mountains like an old fairy, which is something that the residents of the entire ancient town all know, even if the construction of Qingteng Study and the implementation of the Houshan Project are all the construction teams that Xu Yi invited from the city by phone.

However, today.

The news that Xu Yi was going out spread throughout most of the Qingteng Ancient Town in just half an hour.

The east gate of the ancient town.

The white-haired Grandma Wu sent more than a dozen hard-boiled eggs; Aunt Li, who had been widowed for many years, brought hot bamboo rice; the honest and honest Uncle Sun stuffed a pack of sweet dates; and even the young Lu Yang, who opened a supermarket, gave Xu Yi a cigarette and a few bottles of mineral water.

Xu Yi stood in front of the dilapidated van, looking at the simple faces, although he tried every means to excuse himself, he was still warm and accepted a lot of things.

In the words of the villagers: The poor family is rich, don't be hungry on the way.

Xu Yi's heart was warm and he thanked him constantly.

all these years.

Because of the construction of Qingteng Study, because of the implementation of the Houshan project, he invited a lot of workers from the city, who lived in the town for a long time, clothing, food, housing, transportation, food, drink, Lazar, all need to be purchased locally, so it has brought good benefits to many residents in the town.

Everyone, they are reciprocating and expressing gratitude.

"I will be back soon. ”

Xu Yi got into the car and waved goodbye to everyone.

This dilapidated van, the owner is Sun Zhengqiang, who is engaged in mountain goods trading, in his thirties, he is still a bachelor, he is not poor and can't marry a daughter-in-law, but it is said that he was injured by a woman many years ago, returned to his hometown from the bustling city, ran a small business, and lived a leisurely single life.

"Xu Yi, your prestige in the town is comparable to those respected old people. If you are willing to run for the next mayor, I dare to pat my chest and guarantee that 99% of the townspeople in the town will vote for you. Sun Zhengqiang held the steering wheel in his hand, looked through the rearview mirror and saw a large group of people still waving far behind, and said with a smile.

"Not interested. ”

Xu Yi nestled in the back seat and said lazily.

The mayor of Qingteng Ancient Town is not officially appointed by the superiors, but the residents of the entire Qingteng Ancient Town vote for election, and then report to the government department.

Sun Zhengqiang wants to run for office.

However, the prestige is too low, and I can only sigh every time.

This is good, the time and place are favorable, but there is no interest, it is really a full man who doesn't know that a hungry man is hungry!

Idle all the way.

When I arrived in Jinyang City, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

Xu Yi said goodbye to Sun Zhengqiang, took the train with a large bag and a small bag, and headed all the way to Jiangzhou, until ten o'clock in the evening, when he arrived at Jiangzhou Railway Station.

Jiangzhou is a second-tier city, with many high-rise buildings, busy traffic, and prosperity.

The stars have changed, and it has been seven years in the blink of an eye.

Coming to Jiangzhou again, Xu Yi was not blinded by the prosperity of this city, but his mood was a little complicated, although he only occupied this body, but the family affection connected by blood could never be parted.

Barilla Hotel.

The most luxurious five-star hotel in Jiangzhou, located in the most prosperous area of Fenglin District, with convenient transportation and a wide area, the building has a total of 52 floors, like a giant soaring into the sky.

Xu Yi walked into the hotel lobby with a large bag and a small bag, attracting the attention of many people, although he had a bookish atmosphere and a handsome appearance, but the mountain specialties he was carrying were a little difficult to get into the elegant hall in the eyes of the people around.

It's just that!

Visitors are guests!

Even the hotel lobby manager Yuan Wei had a warm smile on the surface, but he was a little contemptuous in his heart. However, he still took the initiative to meet and asked if he needed help with something.

Xu Yi refused with a smile and came to the front desk.

"Two, I'm really sorry, the hotel room is really full, and I hope you can understand the inconvenience. The front desk lady looked at a man and a woman in front of her apologetically and said.

"How can you have such a big hotel, how can it be full? If you don't have a business room, then let's open a presidential suite, isn't it a matter of spending a few extra dollars!" said the pot-bellied middle-aged man dissatisfied.

"That's it, we don't lack that little money, we just want to move in quickly, and I'm almost tired of tossing along the way. The young girl with dyed blonde hair said in an unhappy tone.

"All the rooms in our hotel are full, including the Presidential Suite, and you can stay in other hotels or go to the lounge area for a while, and we will let you know as soon as you have a guest checking out. The front desk lady explained.

"You ......" the blonde was furious.

"Baby, forget it. The fat middle-aged man grabbed the blonde and complained with an unhappy face: "This is not our territory after all, even if it is a dragon, we have to be honest, let's go! ”

"I just want to live here! It's so close to the Kyushu fashion show that it won't take us a few minutes to walk around after we've rested. The blonde said coquettishly.

"This ......"

The fat middle-aged man was a little embarrassed, turned his head to look at Xu Yi, who had already walked to the next place, and snorted coldly: "We don't live here anymore, even this kind of person comes to live, I'm afraid this Baiwei Hotel is just a vain name." ”

As soon as Xu Yi was putting things away, he heard the words of the fat middle-aged man, and suddenly laughed dumbly, the other party couldn't open the room, and he was angry in his heart, and he actually caused trouble to the pond fish and despised himself.

However, with his temperament, he didn't bother to deal with the other party.

"Open the room!" Xu Yi said

"Hello sir, have you made an appointment online in advance?" asked the front desk lady with a smile.

"Nope. Xu Yi handed over his ID card.

"Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry, our hotel rooms are full, and I hope you will be able to inconvenience you. The front desk lady handed back her ID card with an apologetic face.

"I'll live on the fifty-first floor. Xu Yi didn't pick up the ID card.

The front desk lady was stunned, shook her head and smiled: "Mr. Xu, the 50th floor and above are not open to the public, and they are not the guest rooms of our hotel. ”

"I know, please look it up. Xu Yi still said.

"Mr. Xu, I'm really sorry, don't embarrass me. The front desk lady smiled bitterly.

Xu Yi thought about it, turned around and beckoned to Yuan Wei who had just greeted him.

"Hello sir, how can I help you?" asked Yuan Wei with a smile.

"You are the lobby manager of this hotel, you should have the right to inquire about the hotel information, right? My ID card is in her hand, you can check it to see if I can live on the fifty-first floor." Xu Yi pointed to the work card on the other party's chest and said.

Fifty-one layer?

This guest in front of you wants to live on the fifty-first floor?

Yuan Wei chuckled in his heart, and immediately nodded and walked to the front desk, as the front desk lady got out of the way, he took Xu Yi's ID card and quickly made a system query.

A moment later.

Yuan Wei's eyes widened, looking at the information he had inquired about, and his breathing became short.
