Reborn with My Wife Chapter 51: Depart from the magic city
Gu Xia's hometown is also in Xinjian District, but it is more than an hour away from the district. It is on the edge of Xinjian District. It is a small town called Shigang Town, with a population of 40,000 to 50,000 people.
Gu Xia was driving home on the national highway, and his mother fell asleep halfway, because the heater in the car made people feel comfortable. Gu Xia had already taken off his down jacket, otherwise he would have been sweating all over.
Seeing her mother falling asleep, Gu Xia turned off the music, opened the car window and lit a cigarette.
There is a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere along the way. Because of cars and electric vehicles, there is not much snow on the road, but the snow on both sides of the road is already more than ten centimeters thick.
Gu Xia saw a gas station on the side. It must have been built for a long time.
This snow is really big! It is said that auspicious snow heralds a good year, but when the snow falls heavily, it is not auspicious snow, but a catastrophic snow.
Gu Xia passed Shigang Town and came to his hometown, Gujia Village. When he arrived at his grandfather's house, Gu Xia woke up his mother, and then got out of the car to see that a large part of the adobe brick house of his grandfather's house had collapsed.
"Hey~ Isn't this Gu Xia? Got rich outside? Buy a Mercedes-Benz."
"That's right! Aren't you going to college? You're doing big business, and I'll take my Gu Ying to do it tomorrow!"
“…”
Gu Xia was a little embarrassed to hear the uncles and ladies near his grandfather's house constantly boasting about him, after all, he didn't have this kind of treatment in his previous life!
Young people in the village
Gu Xia greeted the uncles and aunts, and then walked away like a father and grandfather who were clearing the snow and moving things out of the house.
"Dad ~ grandpa."
Gu Xia yelled, and then joined in the cleaning process.
"Xia Xia is here, you go and rest aside, you are a college student and have never done heavy work, so it's fine for me and your dad to come." Grandpa waved his hand.
"It's okay, Grandpa."
Gu Xia said with a smile. After finishing speaking, he went to find a shovel, and dug hard the snow and earthen bricks, not to mention that digging was quite heavy. After a while, Gu Xia was sweating. Hastily took off the down jacket and woolen sweater and put them in the car, and continued digging.
Many things in the house are under pressure, including the savings of grandparents, as well as home appliances and furniture.
The three of them dug until noon, and put all their things at the second grandpa's house, and had dinner at the second grandpa's house at noon.
Gu Feng was in contact after dinner, planning to build a new house on the spot. Originally, Gu Feng had been taking two old people to live in the city, but Gu Xia's grandfather said: "I've lived here all my life. , my father, grandpa and grandparents have lived here for generations, this is my root! There are so many old guys here, with my memories, why go to the city? I don’t know what to do when I go out every day, unlike here, I go out casually If you go to that house, you can talk and eat, but I won’t go, our old couple lived here, and we will die here.”
There is no way, the ancient peak can only be rebuilt, and it will have to wait until next year to live in it.
"Second Uncle, let's go, sometimes you can go to the city to chat with my dad." Gu Feng said to Gu Xia's Second Grandpa.
"Good~ good."
"Brother! Be well in the city."
"Well, it didn't take long, we'll be back when the house is built."
“…”
Seeing Grandpa and Second Grandpa saying goodbye there, Gu Xia was filled with emotion...
People of my grandfather's generation came from hardships. My grandfather has two younger brothers and one older sister. The older sister has been dead for several years. The younger brother lives with his son from other places. Only the second brother is still in the village. Gu Xia's The second grandma also passed away. When grandpa and grandma went to the city, there was no relatives around the second grandpa. His son and daughter were all out of town, and they usually came back for the New Year. Now that grandpa is gone, he is even more lonely.
"Brother, have a good journey!"
Gu Xia looked at the second grandpa who was waving his hands and shouting through the rearview mirror, and then looked at the grandpa in the back seat who was blinking wet eyes. .
……
A group of people and two cars returned to the Xinjian District.
At Gu Xia's house, Gu Feng was talking with his parents, while Deng Ling was tidying up the room and laying the quilt for her parents-in-law.
Gu Xia sat on the sofa, listening to the conversation between her grandparents and her father, without interrupting, just listening.
Gu Xia saw the deep wrinkles on the faces of his grandparents, their silver-white hair, and their slightly slumped backs.
Time is not forgiving!
……
The next day, Gu Xia got up and took out the suit and leather shoes he bought last time. Today he is going to Shanghai, so he must dress more formally.
"Parents, grandparents, I'm leaving, I'm going to Shanghai." Gu Xia greeted his family.
"Be careful on the road and drive slowly."
"Be careful~"
“…”
Listening to his family's instructions, Gu Xia smiled and said, "I understand."
When they got downstairs, Gu Xia cleaned the snow off the car again, his hands were red from the cold.
"I'm going to buy a car cover when I find time, so that I can cover it when I don't drive it."
Gu Xia opened the navigation on her mobile phone. The navigation had already been available in 2005. It appeared on the Nokia mobile phone at that time. At that time, there was a storm, and many people rushed to buy it.
It's just that the map at this time is not comprehensive, there are not many places, and it is not like in the future that there is a map navigation everywhere.
This is also the main problem that Guxia's taxi-hailing software has not started to develop. The current problem of taxi-hailing software is not that no one is doing it, nor is it a research and development problem, but that the map is not comprehensive. The current map is only for some major cities in the country. Many cities don't even have maps, let alone roads in cities.
This is also where Gu Xia and Xu Fan are worried~IndoMTL.com~ Fortunately, everything is going smoothly in terms of food delivery, and the taxi-hailing software can only be implemented after the map is completed.
After all, there is no such comprehensive map as Gaode and Baidu at this time.
The map on Gu Xia's cell phone is unknown, and it has no name, only the bare word "map".
Fortunately, the map of an international metropolis like Shanghai is relatively comprehensive. Shanghai Shanghai Lingyun Technology Co., Ltd. is located on Nanjing Road in Shanghai. The total length of Nanjing Road is 5.5 kilometers. It used to be called "Ten Mile Foreign Market". It is the most prosperous road in Shanghai. . The six characters "Nanjing Road Pedestrian Street" were inscribed by the former chairman himself. This pedestrian street completed on the 50th anniversary of the National Day gave the "Centennial Nanjing Road" a new look. Now it is the most luxurious and fashionable commercial district in Shanghai. paradise.
And Magic City Lingyun Technology Co., Ltd. is located on the Yunfan Building here. It rents an entire floor on the 23rd floor. The rent is 6 million per year, which means that the monthly rent is 500,000. The figures in 2008 are very scary. Fortunately, Xu Fan, as a real estate owner, has a lot of money. If ordinary people start their businesses, they can only rent in small workshops in the suburbs of Shanghai.
