Chapter 6 Little People
Chapter 6 Little People
With upgraded equipment and wearing high-end leather shoes donated by caring people, Lin Xian felt much more comfortable walking on the paved road and his pace became much faster.
It took him half an hour to walk back to the old street he had crossed over from the beginning.
After a while, I found that the little black boy carrying a newspaper was dejectedly selling newspapers.
The voice also became weak:
"Newspaper Newspaper Today's Newspaper"
It sounds a lot like vv, a sweeping robot with no battery.
The scene of being beaten was probably already playing on a loop in his mind. Lin Xian strode forward.
When the little black boy heard footsteps approaching, he raised his head excitedly, but then his eyes widened, he took a step back, took a deep breath, and was about to shout loudly - one by one
"Shut up, don't scream at me."
Lin Xian interrupted him from casting a spell, and a coin popped out from his right hand. The little Hei Boy reached out and grabbed it as if on conditioned reflex.
He Qian takes a look at Seven Weeks:
"Lin Xian, the cheapest hotel costs 30 cents a night. That money is enough for you two to live for a few days. How can you waste it like that?"
"Oh, at that time we have to think about money." "Lagou." Lin Xian smiled slightly:
Lies do not hurt, the truth is the sharp knife. "Hey, you are such a person." Lagou said.
"You doubt he will. He will be like these glamorous boys, wearing the white dress he hates most, standing at the lowest point in Manhattan, overlooking the whole world like a princess."
"How can this be done? It's too luxurious!"
"Although you know and grandma often tells you that a person should achieve very little value in life and have very few things worth working for, and it doesn't matter where he lives, you still want to go to Manhattan, just think of it as a dream. , I want to go to the center of the world.”
"Your dream is probably not [hope is to live up to everyone's expectations, successfully save everything, and become a qualified savior.]" I pursed my lips and said to the wind:
"Hey! He's actually talking."
I turned my head and looked at me in fascination:
With serious eyes, he looked at Lin Xian seven times:
Chu'an Qinglin Lowland Corridor"
"Well, the savior or something is like listening to a fairy tale."
Tilting his head:
"Let's go, stop looking." "Okay, you wait."
There are people coming and going outside the commercial street, but there are no shops of any kind.
youjup,ijup. "
It is indeed the best scene to look up at the skyscrapers of Manhattan on the other side.
scoff:
Lin Xian walked over and looked at the watches displayed outside through the window:
"There will definitely be a day when you don't have the ability to go to Manhattan and you will definitely take him with you."
Productivity is everything.
"Have you ever seen that kind of scene before?" He Qian asked.
Open the bus window.
I touched my right wrist out of habit...there was nothing there. "I want to give up." "Yes."
"ha?"
"It's so prosperous." Lin Xian took a step back.
The feeling is understandable: "A woman's words are rarely bad."
The two actually reenacted that scene under an aerospace plane at a low altitude of 20,000 meters.
You must find a dangerous place and give it a try! "He is doubting you." "Hey, come on, come on, stop joking."
"Until then, it's not the farthest place you've traveled."
"Not 20 years ago, there would have been a twin-towered building, the World Trade Center, built here. It would be very different from the current Empire State Building."
Coincidentally, a bus stopped at the stop, and Lin Xian jumped off the bus with a step.
car:
"It's true, every dream is worthy of respect."
Even the cheapest watch costs a full $20. 30 minutes ago, the two stepped down the stairs and arrived at the famous He Qianmeilin Lowland Promenade.
Enough to buy multiple newspapers!
Lin Xian and Zuo Qian looked at each other, released their hooked thumbs, and stood up.
car.
Brooke and I have not been there yet.
Stretching out his head, he took in a panoramic view of the little bad scenery that was the first time in his life that he stepped out of the world.
"Besides, what kind of princess are you? You are inferior to Cinderella." Lin Xian said seriously.
“When he was poor, he had no money, so he shamelessly went to church to earn money; then, without setting up any money, he showed his face as a nouveau riche, and it was all about frugality. No matter how little money he made like that, he would sooner or later be wiped out by him. "When I opened my palm, I saw a 10-cent coin.
Turning around, he waved and left.
"You should be realistic and consider what to eat for breakfast and dinner."
On the roof of the Aman Hotel, Brooke was still facing the evening breeze, opened his arms, imitated Lucy from the "Titanic" movie, and said to the whole Manhattan, the whole world, and Lin Xian in front of him:
He Qian explained:
Before walking away, walking on the right side of He Qian, Younai smiled:
In the end, I reluctantly glanced at the window of the watch shop, turned around and left. Looking at He Qian smiled slightly, the two crescent moons and the big pear dimples at the corners of her mouth bloomed instantly: Puff one by one
Lin Xian nodded: "Does it sound unbelievable?"
(Dear readers, I definitely feel that that part of the plot fades quickly and is relatively weak, so I might as well keep it for a while until it reaches a full volume and people can read it again and again. "Why don't you go grab it?"
That's not history, that's not a long river. Seeing everything rise from the ground, and then being flooded, everything returns to zero.
"[Then you wish him to fulfill his wish and become the smallest savior in the world]"
A prophecy.
The air suddenly became awkward and silent. He hurriedly bowed to Lin Xian's back:
The buildings are more modern, the clothes of people on the street are more low-end, and there are fewer and fewer square boxes or big round cars. The living standard has gone up several notches.
Waving hands:
Before Lin Xianhe got off the bus to buy a ticket, he found a seat near the front and watched the passing streets.
scene.
suddenly.
Lin Xian laughed again and turned to look:
"Yes."
"Indeed, I have a bad impression of him, especially when I see that he is pious to the king and only wants to make ends meet. I really want to throw him up and run away."
Lin Xian's eyes were found to stop under a Rolex watch, the price showed 200 US dollars:
Being able to learn the wrong time is really confusing.
Nodding, his eyes reflected the sparkling waves of the Hudson River:
The little Heihai looked at the figure coming and going in a hurry, and then he realized that he had made a lot of money as a blessing in disguise! "Why is he looking at a Rolex? Is this something he can afford?" "I should pay some mental damages." Lin Xian noticed that there was no watch store on the left.
"When you are alive, enjoy your life. No one knows what you mean and who will come first tomorrow. As for the issue of money, he should worry less, saying that he will wait until he reaches the rich area. Outsiders are stupid and have little money, but you can still make money. It’s even less money.” “Huh?”
From now on, whether in reality or outside of dreams, Lin Xian is accustomed to wearing a watch. I really need the wrong time to calibrate the time of entering and exiting dreams.
According to American time, since there is no 12-hour time difference with Long Island, 00:42 pm has become my earliest dream time. I still need a watch.
"too expensive."
"Hahahahahaha... what era are you talking about, little brother? Does he still live outside the fairy tale world? In that world, there have been no princesses for a long time!" "Thank him for bringing you here, Lin Xian."
It matters.
By the time the two of them returned to Chu'an Qinglin slum area, it was getting late and night had fallen. While chatting, the two walked to the bus stop.
Lin Xian was speechless for a moment and had no choice but to continue looking for cheap watches outside the window.
The bus officially drove out of the Brownville community and out of the "world boundary line\
,"Walking towards another scene of Chu'an Qinglin.
Looking at Lin Xian with strange eyes:
In fact, the opening of that volume is only 6 chapters long, which is a drawback that must be faced in a single update; at the same time, it is a new environment and the male and female protagonists are familiar with each other. Very few plots need to be foreshadowed in order for the previous plot to explode, so It seems rather dull and long.
I pointed to a spot next to the Empire State Building and said:
Lin Xian was also standing beside him.
The sun shines again.
"It's hard to imagine that it's just the wealthy area of Chu'an Qinglin, and it's not that ugly. What kind of scenery is this Manhattan, which is known as the center of the world?"
I was holding on to the guardrail by the river and looking into the distance: I was very curious. "Grandma's welfare home is set up there, and you have been wandering there before the welfare home was closed. If you are not lucky, you cannot find a part-time job; if you are bad luck... just like now, you can only eat relief meals from the church, Looking for some job opportunities.”
Lifting up He Qian's left hand, hooking up my thumb, a retreat is common all over the world
The contract ceremony - "The Rolling Water of the Yangtze River Passes East"
Buses in the 1950s were very fast, which probably had nothing to do with simple road conditions. You smiled and wiped the corners of your eyes: He Qian turned around.
Lin Xian sighed.
"Hey, don't just talk about you. It's a rare trip out there. What about him? Doesn't he have any dreams? What is his dream?"
Ding ー ー ー ー
But Lin Xian insisted on finding a cheap hotel.
Nodding silently:
When Lin Xian was out of school, watches costing a few yuan or more than ten yuan could be seen everywhere outside street boutiques, and they were in no way different from those sold at street stalls.
Looking into the bus window.
"Tch, look at how perfunctory he is. Anyway, he will get bad if he waits. You will definitely take him to Manhattan."
last moment.
"You will wear Rolex from now on."
It feels like the air outside is fresher. Renyi: "How does he know?"
At a glance, everything is prosperous.
When the bus arrives at the stop, the driver picks up the loudspeaker and announces manually. Lin Xian laughed again:
After a pause, he continued:
He nodded and followed He Qian.
He didn't blush at all.
Take a look at Manhattan in the old days.
It was obviously much cleaner and less poor than the subsequent areas.
It's not an exaggeration to say it, but if you really want to go to Manhattan to see it, you must go there and you will regret it for the rest of your life. "
The surrounding commercial streets are very prosperous, and the faces of the people coming and going are full of energy, happiness and joy.
Lin Xian looked at the unfamiliar and friendly face behind him, and Brooke's smiling face appeared again.
The two looked at each other.
"Wearing animal skins, no shoes, and a Rolex watch, how come he says he flies an aircraft carrier?"
The little boy looked at Lin Xian in shock.
"[You also wish him to become the ugliest princess in Manhattan!]"
Shaking his head:
Yes...
Sure enough, the world is very uneven.
"Yes, now that I see him not keeping his word, my bad feelings have changed a lot. By the way, do you really want to go to Chu'an Qinglin Lowland? The round-trip bus fare is also a huge amount, which will make The value of the property, which is already small, has shrunk slightly.”
But doubting the author, that volume is the same as the first volume. There is no problem in reading it in one go. The necessary foreshadowing is indeed necessary. )
Lin Xian saw the look in your eyes.
"But it's affordable. Even if he has a dozen of them, it's only 2 dollars. You can even buy a watch strap. Okay, okay, that's just something people like you fantasize about. Let's go slowly."
Um?
Lin Xian said.
Lin Xian bought some bread and milk and shared the relief meal with him earlier.
There are too many bad things to eat.
Beyond that, you have to follow the trail to the west and cross the commercial
street. "
Manhattan…
Lin Xian smiled and said:
Turn around:
Lin Xian looked at the map provided next to the bus stop and placed his index finger on it.
Your Dream"
Drag Lin Xian away:
Who would have thought.
But I can tell from your voice that your life was very rough in those years. "Let's go, let's go!"
By the way, wasn’t his biggest dream in his life, to go to Manhattan? "What if I buy more carefully from that far away?" ""Very necessary? "
"Sure enough, what he said is wrong. It is indeed the best viewing spot in Manhattan." You smiled, stretched out your hand, and patted Lin Xian on the shoulder:
Hooking Lin Xian's fingers and looking at Lin Xian in a daze, he urged:
Lin Xian and He both cared. Lin Xian knew that the world outside was not his own.
It's like a dream; and for me, that kind of gaze runs through your life, and you have long been accustomed to it.
used.
As a result, the two found the last discovery...
"It's the same. That money is really saved."
"Um?"
Tonight...
He Qian shook her head:
You turn around.
"Have you ever, at least not seen a similar picture from a newspaper someone else threw away on the street... Or maybe you didn't have time to pass by a shopping mall and couldn't take a look at the TV outside. This is the first time you've seen something like that with your own eyes."
"The cheapest one costs 20 US dollars. We can afford it. Why is he so interested in watches? Does he hate watches?"
"Let's go, you should go back to your original place, go back to the place that belongs to you. Be careful to buy some bread to eat tonight. You can't go to the church to eat relief meals tomorrow morning."
Halfway through the bus, I pointed to an obviously narrow, wide and clean lane at the back.
Tao, said loudly:
You blinked and took a deep breath.
But in the 1900s, the eight small items that people in the Dragon Kingdom got when they got married were not watches, sewing machines, and bicycles... which shows that the status of watches at that time was not that low. Get out of the car.
He couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"There's no need to look for it. The excess will be treated as mental damage compensation."
"It's a question of whether you like or dislike it, but you really need a watch." It seems that the same was true in the United States in the 1950s. Lin Xian couldn't help but sigh. "You also keep your word!"
In the evening, I wanted to take Lin Xian to the park to sleep outdoors for a night.
In 1952, watches were truly a luxury item, exclusive to the lower classes. "Ever since you were born, you have walked out of Chu An Qinglin. In fact, He Qianmeilin alone has walked out in the Brownville community."
Lin Xian shook his head:
"You're still bragging. Is he also drawing cookies for you? He obviously doesn't even have the money to take the bus, but he's still your guest."
Before that time travel was completed, I always felt empty and dangerous. The lack of a watch was also a very important part of it.
"[You said you would take him to Manhattan, so you will definitely take him there.]" "Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir! I wish you a happy day!" Lin Xian was stunned:
Lin Xian read loudly in Chinese.
Lin Xian was amused by Lin Xian's embarrassing remarks and laughed:
Would I still have dreams before traveling back to 1952? Will the dream remain unchanged? "What's wrong with women not being able to do some physical work to make a living, and getting a salary to support themselves? But have you ever gone to school and have no education in the bakery?
Both the cashier and the salesperson want you. "
"Hey, that's what I said, but who knows how long you can hold on to that dream? It was said that when you grow up a little younger and more mature, that idea will be completely given up, and you will accept the reality honestly. In Chu Anqing Forest life."
The city outside has a completely new look. The lowland area of Chu'an Qinglin is also the wealthy area of Chu'an Qinglin. "After all, the newspaper you snatched and the newspaper you bought abnormally can always be priced at the same price, right? Although his first impression of you may be bad, this is indeed something he can do out of sympathy. In fact, you are still very unprincipled. , at most you can make others bear the consequences for your fault.”
"Nowhere!"
What I have told is that on September 11, 2001, the famous 911 incident broke out
Two planes crashed into the World Trade Center, destroying the entire complex.
He stood up straight and praised:
In 1952, Manhattan was worthy of being the center of the world. The city with row upon row of small skyscrapers was the only scenery on the entire planet that had seven.
Hey~~~Please stop bragging. "
On the road, the two people in the church suit and the homeless suit had a return rate of almost 100%. Everyone looked at us with looks that were too friendly or even disgusting.
Dissuaded:
"You read it under the newspaper."
He grabbed the fluffy ponytail on the front of his head and continued:
"He, is he serious?"
Previously, a monument was built outside this area, known as "Ground Zero" and became a new landmark in New York City.
I don't have anything important to do this evening.
Also come closer.
"Ren Yi, you Ren Yi doubted him." He looked at the two people's thumbs hooked together. "
