Chapter 68 Seeing Friends

The next morning.

Zheng Fan and Zhang Yixing sent off Xiaotu Xiaonan, Su Linlin and Lu Ling at the airport.

"Brother Fan, I don't know if I should say something or not."

Watching the plane fly overhead, Zhang Yixing said hesitantly.

Upon hearing this, Zheng Fan immediately said, "Is there anything you can't say? Just say it if you have something to say."

After preparing some words, Zhang Yixing said: "I think my sister-in-law is prettier than the two people who came to see you that day, huh...how to put it, I think my sister-in-law is reliable, you know what I mean, uh, it's over, I don't know what to do said…"

Looking at Zhang Yixing's somewhat troubled face, Zheng Fan sighed, patted him on the shoulder, and said as someone who came here: "Yes, your sister-in-law must be unique in my heart, but this man, especially the rich Now, the mind is alive."

"Family flowers are fragrant, wild flowers are more fragrant. My brother Yixing, you are still young. If you don't believe me, think about what I told you today in a few years. There is a certain truth in it."

Shaking his head, Zhang Yixing said, "I won't be like you."

"hey-hey."

Zheng Fan laughed dryly, remembering that Zhang Yixing did not have any scandals in his previous life.

"Let's go, let's go back, the third round will start tomorrow morning, take a good rest."

Zhang Yixing: "Yeah."

When the two were about to take a taxi back to the hotel, Zhang Yixing suddenly remembered something, and stopped Zheng Fan: "Brother Fan, Luo Jie should be here today, why haven't you seen him?"

When Zheng Fan heard this, he stopped in his tracks and said, "That's right, it was agreed at the time that Shang Hai would contact us as soon as he arrived, so give him a call and ask."

When Luo Jie returned to his hometown, Zheng Fan and Zhang Yixing made an agreement with him, and contacted them as soon as possible when they returned to Shanghai.

Because Zheng Fan and Zhang Yixing secretly bought some clothes and shoes for Luo Jie after the second round, and wanted to give them to him when he came back.

But the game will start tomorrow morning, so it should be here by now.

Zheng Fan took out his mobile phone, found Luo Jie's number and dialed it.

"Can't connect, is it turned off?"

Zheng Fan scratched his head, thinking that the signal at the airport was not good, so he and Zhang Yixing went far away and called again.

"Still shut down! This kid."

Zheng Fan and Zhang Yixing looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"Is it because the signal in his hometown is not good? Didn't he say that his village is in the mountains? His old phone probably can't receive the signal well."

Zhang Yixing guessed.

The two looked at each other, feeling a little uneasy in their hearts. They couldn't contact anyone, and they didn't know what happened to Luo Jie.

Zheng Fan thought for a while, and said, "Let me first find out how far his village is from us, if not, let's go find him!"

For Luo Jie, Zheng Fan's emotions are very complicated. This boy was not famous in his previous life, but he can write songs like his father's, which shows that he is very talented and talented.

His growth experiences have touched Zheng Fan a lot. Optimism and strength can overcome all misfortunes. This is what Luo Jie taught Zheng Fan.

Moreover, Zheng Fan had a big idea in his mind, that is to keep Luo Jie by his side.

However, putting this idea into action requires talking to Luo Jie and considering all aspects at that time, which is not something that needs to be thought about now.

Clicking on the map, Zheng Fan searched the Luojiazhuang under Kunshan.

"More than 90 kilometers, it's not too far. If you drive, it should take about two hours. Shall we go?"

Zhang Yixing nodded, and said affirmatively: "Go! If there is nothing wrong, let's make a trip for nothing. If he really has something to get away from and delay the game, I think I will feel guilty for the rest of my life."

Zheng Fan: "Okay, let's go, there is a taxi in front."

The two got into the taxi and told the driver the address.

When the driver saw the name of the village clearly, he said, "Two brothers, I want to explain to you that the distance is not too far, but I have to pay more."

Before Zheng Fan and Zheng Fan could speak, the driver continued, "If you go from here to Kunshan, you can pay around [-] yuan, but if you want to go to Luojiazhuang, you have to give me [-] yuan. This village is in the mountains, full of dirt roads and trails. , one fell into the ditch if it doesn’t work well, so I’ll explain it to you, I’ll go for five hundred, if you can’t accept it, just ask another car.”

The driver's expression was very determined, and he would never send the two of them without 400 yuan.

500 yuan is acceptable to Zheng Fan, but he did not expect that the village where Luo Jie lives is so poor that there is not even a painted road?

This is the difference in life experience and environment. In Zheng Fan's original impression, even if a village is so poor that there is only one smartphone, 90.00% of the villagers in a village must rely on farming, herding cattle and sheep, and weaving bamboo baskets. born.

When he heard Luo Jie introduce Luojiazhuang, he couldn't believe it.

But now, according to what the driver said, Luojiazhuang doesn't even have a proper road, so how poor should it be?How far behind?
"No problem master, five hundred is five hundred, how long can we get there?"

Driver: "It depends on the situation. If there is no traffic jam in Shanghai City, it will take about two and a half hours. If there is a traffic jam, there is no way to tell. It may be three or four hours."

Zheng Fan nodded and signaled the driver to drive.

The sky was slowly covered with dark clouds, and after a while, light rain began to fall.

"Master, is that Luojiazhuang really that poor?"

On the way, Zheng Fan thought about Luo Jie's thin body, and his nose felt a little sour for no reason.

Taxi drivers are generally very talkative, and this master is no exception.

Hearing Zheng Fan's question, he immediately said: "Hey, brother, at your age, you have never seen a time when you were poor. I think you were really poor when the devils came over. How much hardship we ordinary people suffered at that time..."

Realizing that he had strayed off topic, the driver laughed dryly and changed the subject again.

"This Luojiazhuang, in the mountains, the traffic is extremely inconvenient. A few years ago, it was rumored that roads were going to be built to lead directly to towns and villages. But the construction team went over and saw that the terrain was complicated and the construction period was very long. They wanted to increase the price. .”

"But at that time, the town had no money, the budget was not enough, and Luojiazhuang had no place to develop. Except for planting bamboo in every household, there was neither scenery nor the need for renovation. This matter has been delayed until now. solve."

"It's inconvenient to travel, that's a big deal. All the young people in the village have gone out to work, leaving only the young and old. Tell me, this situation will make you poorer and poorer."

The driver's eloquence is very good, and he tells the cause and effect, and some places are very detailed, as if he has seen it with his own eyes.

"Oh, so don't think it's expensive for you five hundred. It's really not expensive. If you go back and forth, the tire will have to be scrapped."

The taxi left the center of Shanghai slowly and headed out of the city.

The light rain gradually turned into heavy rain, pattering on the car windows and roof.

"By the way, I haven't asked you why you went to Luojiazhuang? It seems that you don't look like young people from there."

Hearing the driver's question, Zheng Fan replied softly: "Look at my friend!"
