Chapter 333 The Forced Favor

Chapter 333 The Forced Favor

"Comrade Nan, let me introduce you, this is my boyfriend Nie Kai."

Both sides wanted to get close, so Nan Yi and Chen Dan's second meal came very quickly. This time, Chen Dan was not alone.

"Hello, I'm Nan Yi."

Nie Kai said: "Hello, Nie Kai."

Nanyi and Nie Kai shook hands, then sat down humbly with each other.

"Brother Kai also works in Shanghai?"

Nan Yi deliberately used 'Brother Kai' instead of Comrade Nie or Brother Nie. He wanted to quickly shorten the distance between the two.

"I work in the capital, and this time I came here specially to see Dandan."

When Nie Kai spoke, he didn't have a domineering manner, but was very peaceful, with a bit of shyness, probably a meek temper.

"Then my appointment for this meal is not at the right time, and it will delay the world between you and Sister Dan."

"What a two-person world, Xiao Yi, don't talk nonsense, he and I haven't reached that point yet." Chen Dan took the initiative to take over the conversation, and also changed the name of Nan Yi.

Great, both sides want to move fast.

"Sooner or later, sooner or later. Sister Dan, let's order first. This is my first time here, and I don't know what to do. You should order."

"Okay, I'll have some."

Chen Dan took the menu unceremoniously, and reported the name of the dish to the waiter.

Nanyi and the others are at the Red House French Restaurant, which is a western restaurant with a long history, but it was converted into a stir-fry restaurant in the 1960s and 1970s, and it has just been reverted back recently.

Although it has just been changed, the taste of Western food is more positive.

What this taste refers to is not the taste, but the style and atmosphere of the restaurant. Unlike Lao Mo, who eats Suxiu's food, the restaurant still has a strong smell of a state-owned canteen.

After ordering, Chen Dan handed the menu to the waiter, and said to Nan Yi, "Do you still remember the Gong Xue you met last time? She came to see me."

"What did she do with Sister Dan?"

"If you are in a hurry, go to the doctor, Chen Meng's methods are very low, Gong Xue's parents, her elder brother and sister-in-law have all been laid off, and her younger sister is also an actress, and a role that has been set has also been taken down.

Chen Meng and his group have been targeted, and it's only a matter of time before they get caught. If you want to sell favors, now is the right time. "

After Nanyi heard this, he said playfully, "Sister Dan, why don't you take this favor yourself?"

"She's not a young girl, so is it useful for me to take her favor?" Chen Dan smiled and said, "I heard from Chen Feng that you are not that honest when it comes to women."

"Sister Dan, don't listen to Chen Feng's nonsense, I am a law-abiding person, and I will never give up..."

Nan Yi grinned as he spoke, but when he saw Chen Dan's half-smiling eyes, he stopped.

"Okay, I gave this favor."

Just as the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl need a magpie bridge for the July Seventh Meeting, some people also need such a "magpie bridge" for communication. Seeing what Chen Dan meant, he wanted to turn Gong Xue into a bridge for communication between them.

A bridge is also a firewall, and at certain critical moments, it also plays a role in isolating danger.

Nan Yi can only say that Chen Dan is overthinking. He made friends with people like Chen Dan not for convenience, but to solve the inconvenience, and for the peaceful environment that his business advertised on TV and newspapers. thrive in the world without the filth from the mouths of the gossip-mongers.

The dinner ended quickly, not to mention giving Chen Dan some time to get along with each other. In fact, Nanyi and Chen Dan had nothing serious to talk about for the time being.

The spring breeze has been promised, but it hasn't blown yet, and we can't expect the autumn rain to come.

The next day, Nanyi took the earliest train back to the capital. At dinner time, he sat opposite Liu Zhen and told her about Gong Xue.

"Nanyi, what do you think?" Liu Zhen asked after listening to Nanyi's story.

"You should have guessed what I was thinking. Apart from being a bit older, Gong Xue is pretty pretty. To me, it's not too much to have one more girl, so let's raise her."

"Heh..." Liu Zhen's tone of "heh" was colder than humming, "Isn't this right in your arms?"

Nan Yi said lightly: "You don't know how I classify women. In my eyes, there are only two types of women. Those who can make money for me and those who can't.

I admire beautiful women and have the urge to coax them into my bed, but I don't pay too much for it. "

Nan Yi patted his cheek, "Look at my face, look at my figure, listen to my fluent mouth of more than a dozen languages, some rich women want to coax me to bed. Well, today's meal, The water is just right, soft and chewy."

"Don't just say that you don't practice fake moves, and I haven't seen you coax a rich woman back."

"Let me tell you, don't provoke me. A rich woman winked at me last time on the plane, and I almost followed her."

"Hmph, let me tell you, Nanyi, in China, I don't want to see the second one, do you understand?" Liu Zhen said coldly.

"Look at you, you have forgotten your origin, you have forgotten your origin, you have forgotten who raised you."

"Then you can continue to train me. Let me tell you, relatives were supposed to visit yesterday, but they haven't come today. Come with me to the hospital for a checkup another day."

"Don't be surprised. It's normal to refuse for two days. Let's see after two days. Whether you are pregnant or not, I have to find you a female Chinese medicine doctor who is good at food supplements. You have to take supplements."

"Um."

After staying in the capital for one night, Nan Yi went back to Shanghai again.

Back at the Fang mansion, he made a phone call first, then sat in the living room and waited.

After waiting for more than an hour, Gong Xue finally arrived.

Glancing at Gong Xue who came late, Nan Yi didn't invite her to sit down, but carried a vegetable basket, "Follow me to Sanjiaodi vegetable market to buy vegetables."

Gong Xue didn't answer, but followed Nanyi out silently.

Fortunately, he happened to meet a Lagabu, Nan Yi stopped the car, got into the car first, and then waited for Gong Xue to get on the car.

Gong Xue stood there in a daze for a while, then gritted her teeth and got in the car, sitting opposite Nanyi.

"Master, let's drive."

After Gong Xue sat down, Nanyi said to the driver.

After finishing speaking, Nanyi tugged the waistband of his trousers to keep the trousers from getting stuck, then stretched his feet forward and under the opposite seat.

People who have ridden in a disabled vehicle know that the suspension of this kind of three-wheeled motorcycle is less than or equal to zero. Once it is driven, it will shake very much. If it hits a pothole on the road, people will fly up and hit the roof of the vehicle.

It seems that Gong Xue also has experience in riding. As soon as she sat down, her hands were on the stool, but when the car drove out, she still swayed uncontrollably.

It swayed from side to side for a while, hitting the wall of the car from time to time, and then swayed back and forth again, with its head bouncing forward and its hair flowing.

Suddenly, the driver slammed on the brakes, Gong Xue couldn't hold on to the stool any longer, and rushed towards Nanyi.

Seeing Gong Xue rushing towards him, Nan Yi quickly lifted up the vegetable basket in his hand, already panicked but subconsciously wanted to find a cushioned Gong Xue, so he could only grab the vegetable basket.

Nan Yi flicked Gong Xue onto the stool on his left.

With a bang, Gong Xue's buttocks came into close contact with the stool, and with the inertia to the right, she fell sideways on Nanyi's arm.

For a long time, Gong Xue still hasn't let go of Nanyi's arm.

"Do you feel safe relying on me? Believe it or not, if you don't let go, I'll go to the police station and ask the police to sue you for molestation?"

"How can there be such a shameless man in the world?"

Nan Yi's words directly caused Gong Xue to shut down, and stood there in a daze, she didn't know what to do.

Nan Yi didn't speak any more. Looking at the scenery outside the window through the small window of Lagabu, he hummed "ひとりGetting Started" by Yuki Nakajima. Of course, the words he hummed were in Chinese, which came from Teresa Teng's album of the same name this year. Walking the Road of Life".

Going online is an innate ability of Chinese people, and Nanyi also has this kind of blood in his bones. He is not yet a top player who can be labeled as a top player, and there are many people who are better than him.

One relaxed, one stiff, forming a stark contrast.

After Lagabu stopped at the gate of Sanjiaodi vegetable farm and both of them got off the car, Gong Xue finally couldn't help asking: "Can you help me?"

"Buy vegetables with me first." Nan Yi replied, and walked into the vegetable market first.

Sanjiaodi Vegetable Market, as its name suggests, is a triangular-shaped vegetable market. It turns out that in the late 19th century, the Shanghai Concession Industry Bureau successively built Wenjianshi Road, Hanbili Road, and Miller Road. After these three roads intersected, they formed a triangular piece of land with a size of 10 mu, known as the Triangle Land.

It is located at the intersection of Wusong Road and Tanggu Road. Because another Hanyang Road enters it, it forms a rare "Wujiaochang" where five roads meet on Shanghai Beach.

However, the Triangle Land did not build a vegetable market from the very beginning.

At the beginning, a few eagle-eyed folks who came to Shanghai to pan for gold fell in love with this triangular land and built an amusement park called Feilong Island. This was also the first comprehensive large-scale amusement park in Shanghai, much earlier than the 20th century. The original Great World Playground.

The main entertainment of Feilong Island is the pulley: there is a certain slope and undulating rail between a building and the flat ground, and a pulley for tourists is installed on the track.

The trolley slides from high to low and undulates on the wavy track. This is also the prototype of the current roller coaster. For the Shanghainese at that time, this thing was indeed a very exciting [good fun] thing .

But after a few years, the equipment of the pulley was outdated and damaged, and accidents of overturning and injuring people often occurred, and was finally ordered to suspend business by the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry.

So this vacant triangular land gradually attracted many vegetable farmers to set up stalls here, and gradually formed an open-air vegetable market.

This inspired the concession authorities, so in 1890, the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry built a large-scale indoor vegetable market with brick and wood structure in Sanjiaodi. Small vegetable market.

There is a small pavilion built in the vegetable market facing Wenjianshi Road, and a ceiling is set in the middle to facilitate lighting and ventilation.

The interior of the vegetable market is divided into spaces that are rented out to vegetable sellers to set up stalls. In addition to paying booth fees, tenants also have to pay taxes and management fees. This is similar to the management model of popular supermarkets and hypermarkets.

Due to the booming business of small vegetable farms in the downtown area, in 1915, the indoor vegetable farms with brick and wood structures were no longer enough, so the concession authorities demolished the old houses and rebuilt them into reinforced concrete structures.

The newly-built Sanjiaodi vegetable market has three floors, with double stairs going up and down.

The bottom floor is mainly a vegetable market; the second floor sells fish, meat, non-staple food, canned and packaged food, and agricultural and sideline products; the third floor is a variety of snack shops.

At most, there were more than 1,500 stalls of various kinds, making it look like a big vegetable market.

Someone wrote a jingle and praised: "We have created a large western-style building and gathered it into a foreign market for a store. The vegetables, fruits and vegetables are divided into places, and the double ladders are busy with tens of thousands of people."

There are not only stalls of Chinese people here, but also vendors from Japan, Soviet revisionism and other countries.

The Dongyang Po, who sells seafood with a loud voice and wearing clogs, is particularly eye-catching. For a long period of time, the Sanjiaodi Vegetable Market has always been the indoor vegetable market with the largest area in Shanghai, the most complete variety of products, and the best service facilities. The place has also become synonymous with the famous place names and vegetable markets in Shanghai.

After liberation, the Sanjiaodi vegetable market took on a new look, and it is still the largest indoor vegetable market in Shanghai, ranking first among the four major vegetable markets in Shanghai [the next three are: Changshouzhilu vegetable market, Julu road vegetable market and Shaanxi North Road vegetable market ].

The total amount of vegetables and non-staple food sold in Sanjiaodi reached 40 tons a day. On September 22, 1979, there was an article in the "Mouthpiece News" that specifically introduced the Sanjiaodi vegetable market in Shanghai HK District.

The business hours of this vegetable market are from 4:30 in the morning to 12:00 in the middle of the night. It is divided into morning market, middle market and night market. The morning market is the most lively. At five o'clock in the morning, the street was still quiet, but the vegetable market was already bustling with people.

The Sanjiaodi Vegetable Market has three floors. In the 1950s, the business of flowers, trees and bambooware on the second floor of the vegetable market were all transferred to related industries, and the personnel were transferred accordingly. The second floor was used as the office of the vegetable market.

The dim sum business on the third floor was closed before liberation, and was converted into a dormitory for the vegetable farm staff. A guest house was also opened, and a small school was placed in it.

Nanyi looked at his watch. It was around three o'clock in the afternoon, but there were still a lot of people buying vegetables in the vegetable market. Some were full-time housewives, and there were also workers who stopped by to buy food after work in the morning. Some of them seemed to be purchasers. State-run canteens or factory canteens.

Nanyi also saw soldiers in military uniforms loading baskets of vegetables into Jiefang Daka, which should have been purchased by the troops.

It's just that it's rare for troops to purchase at this point, and they usually come early in the morning.

After a rough observation, Nanyi looked at the stalls one by one. The state-run has its advantages. Especially for Nanyi, there is a price tag next to each dish, which saves him from asking the price.

At this time, there are not many out-of-season vegetables. Except for meat, most of the vegetables that can be seen in the vegetable market are seasonal vegetables, such as cabbage, spinach, radish, lettuce, cauliflower, shepherd’s purse, grass head, lettuce, green garlic, taro , winter bamboo shoots and the like.

There is also Huhaiqing, which is only grown in the East China generation. It is a kind of small cabbage, but most of the time it will be called green vegetables. Thirty years later, if you are an ordinary person, you should be able to eat it often. The ones in Sha County The green vegetables served with rice bowls are Shanghai Haiqing.

Nanyi actually saw Luotangqing. This dish has a bit of astringent taste. It is the best choice for making salty glutinous rice balls. Because it originated from Huang Chuping’s hometown, it is also called Daxian dish.

Huang Chuping is the Huang Daxian who is highly respected by Xiangxi, and he is enshrined in Huang Daxian's palace.

While carefully observing the dishes in the vegetable market, he also wrote down the prices of several dishes, and bought what he wanted to buy by the way.

And since Gong Xue stepped into the vegetable market, Nanyi has intentionally distanced herself from her. Whoever told her to be recognized as soon as she came in, everyone went to say hello to her.

She attracted people away, which also allowed Nanyi to stroll around the vegetable market more leisurely.

After Nanyi finished shopping around the whole vegetable market, he came to a preliminary conclusion that there is no shortage of vegetables in the vegetable basket here in Shanghai. If he wants to make a vegetable basket, he still has to go north to the capital.

The vegetable baskets in Beijing and Tianlong are relatively tight. Once autumn comes, it is difficult to see blue ones. To solve the problem of vegetable baskets in the two places, policy support will definitely be received.

"Next year, let Ge Cuizhu send a few people to explore the road, and try to see if it can be done first. If the difficulty is not as great as imagined, it is time to encourage Chen Feng to grow vegetables with him.

Solving the problem of difficulty in buying vegetables for the citizens and building a vegetable basket project is a great achievement for thousands of years, and it will put gold on the face of the Chen family.

Entrepreneurs must meet the needs of the times, and must do business that the people need, instead of using financial hype thinking to play with the source of goods and manipulate the market, even a small cabbage must be squeezed out. come out. "

Nanyi pondered in his mind, and then thought that Grasshopper and Six Fingers were about to finish their training, and next year, the soybean plan in Africa should also be implemented.

I had to ask a meteorological expert. He remembered that in the next few years, there was a winter that was extremely cold.

The weather is cold, and the harvest of winter wheat may fail, so you have to prepare in advance, squeeze half a catty of oil from wheat futures, and you can live several fat years.

Shennong Nanliang Group now only sees money, but not money!
