Chapter 916: A Trip to Yanjing (IV)
In Yanjing in summer, the temperature from the scorching sun is quite severe. At the hottest time, the temperature in Yanjing can even approach 40 degrees, which is terrifying. Because the weather forecast is all forty degrees, the surface temperature of those outdoor roads that are always scorched by the sun is at least fifty or sixty degrees. If the vehicle is parked outdoors, it would be very easy to fry an egg or something on the hood that is being burned by the sun. Coupled with the hot air from the air conditioners inside the house, the entire city is experiencing an irritating heat from the beginning of work hours in the morning.
When Zhang Pingan, Taeyeon, and Pani went out, they not only brought UV-resistant parasols, but also wore UV-resistant ice silk sleeves. Under the scorching sun in Yanjing, they were fully equipped to avoid tanning. When the three of them arrived at Badaling in a vehicle arranged by the hotel, many tourists had already arrived, and the female tourists from all over the world were dressed similarly to the two of them.
Anyway, most of the people in Zhang Ping'an's eyes were holding parasols in their hands and slowly walking towards the cable car. It was only close to ten o'clock in the morning, and the summer sun in Yanjing was already showing its harshness. Even Zhang Ping'an wore a wide-brimmed straw hat when he went out today. Well, it's because he's too lazy to hold an umbrella because he finds it troublesome. Men, let alone the bright sun, sometimes the common sense of bringing an umbrella when it rains is omitted because it is too troublesome. So a wide-brimmed straw hat is very suitable at this time.
Fortunately, the Rolls-Royce, the vehicle Zhang Pingan drove for a long time in Shanghai and Seoul, was equipped with an umbrella. Because Taeyeon and Pani were wearing sunglasses and holding parasols, no one called them by name along the way.
The three of them got on the cable car very easily. As the cable car slowly went up, the Great Wall buildings in the distance gradually appeared in front of their eyes. Taeyeon and Pani had no intention of chatting with Zhang Pingan at this time. They both stared at the Great Wall and sighed: "Wow... I can't describe this shock. It is indeed a miracle of the world. Oppa, what did you say in ancient times?" How do people do it?”
Zhang Ping'an responded with a smile: "Anyway, manpower can sometimes be beyond imagination, just like the pyramids in Egypt and Stonehenge in Europe. As for the ancients who did not have modern equipment, how did they do it? They must have been built step by step. Well. However, the purpose of the Great Wall was to defend against foreign enemies, and it is recorded in our history books. I have always felt that the "civilization" handed down by China is great, because the written record of historical events has never ceased. Yes, this is why we Chinese people say that we have a civilization of five thousand years, because these major events that happened thousands of years ago are all recorded in clear words."
Zhang Ping'an was talking about "history" in the cable car, but Taeyeon and Pani were looking at the endless stretch of the Great Wall. In the cable car where the three of them were riding, Taeyeon and Pani sighed endlessly. Because the visual shock brought to them by the "Great Wall" is also quite powerful. The Great Wall stretches along the ridge until the end of their sight.
The three of them got off the cable car and finally came to the Great Wall. Taeyeon and Pani looked at the Great Wall from side to side. They were so shocked by the 'giant dragon' that they could only sigh, because they were short of words. They stood there After visiting the Great Wall, I realized that I could no longer find the words to describe the Great Wall.
Another thing is that it is morning and there are not many people on the Great Wall. Even though there are some tour groups coming up, these few groups are like a few flowers to the vast and boundless Great Wall. Moreover, this is not a holiday period, and summer is not the peak tourist season in Yanjing. So there are really not many people standing on this Great Wall.
Zhang Pingan led Taeyeon and Pani towards the nearest beacon tower. They both took out their cameras and mobile phones to take pictures, but Zhang Pingan said, "This is the entrance" and they could only follow Zhang Pingan as they walked along the Great Wall. . Taeyeon smiled and said: "The Great Wall, is it really ten thousand miles long?"
Zhang Ping'an said with a smile: "Yes, didn't you read the introduction when you came up? The total length of the Great Wall is: more than 21,000 kilometers. There is no problem with the length of the Great Wall going around South Korea!"
When they arrived at the beacon tower, Taeyeon and Pani had already started taking photos of each other, taking pictures of each other. Cell phones, cameras, come into play one after another. An uncle who was passing by was also asked by Zhang Pingan to take a group photo of the three of them. During the group photo, the three of them were sitting in a row on the steps leading up to the beacon tower. They sat in a row as they went up. The beacon tower, the three people sitting in rows and smiling, And the weather with clear skies, everything is so beautiful.
Then, Zhang Pingan took a photo with Taeyeon. He stood behind Taeyeon, hugging her from behind, resting his head on Taeyeon's shoulder and making a scissor hand gesture. When he took a photo with Pani, Pani asked Zhang Pingan to carry her on his back, and she made a scissor hand gesture on his back. Although the Great Wall is very sunny and hot in summer, the wind is strong and the weather is also very beautiful. So every photo is like a pictorial, Taeyeon’s profile, Taeyeon’s photo. Pani’s grimace, Pani’s smiling eyes. Zhang Ping'an's gentle smile, and his leisurely attitude when leaning against the wall.
The three of them had a great time on the Great Wall in the morning. However, after walking two beacon towers, they lost interest in the Great Wall. Because of the endless Great Wall, walking along the next beacon tower, it seems that the scenery does not change much. The three of them took a lot of photos here when no one was passing by and then went down the mountain.
The Great Wall is ten thousand miles long, and the three of them only need to appreciate a part of it. As for where it ends, Taeyeon and Tiffany are not interested at all. After climbing the Great Wall, they played for about an hour and lost interest. After the three of them went down the mountain and returned to the city, Tiffany smiled and looked at the photos on her phone while asking Zhang Pingan: "What delicious food are we going to eat at noon today?"
Because Zhang Pingan said that it would be almost after 12 o'clock when we returned to the city, it was lunch time. The three of them were thinking about what to eat while returning?
Zhang Pingan smiled and said: "Since we are in Yanjing, it must be Yanjing roast duck. We will eat here in Qianmen, and we can visit the Forbidden City in the afternoon after eating."
.......
Qianmen, Zhang Pingan took Taeyeon and Tiffany to Bianyifang. Compared with Quanjude, which is more well-known overseas, Zhang Pingan chose Bianyifang. First of all, the reputation there is great, and tourists basically choose roast duck from Quanjude. Zhang Pingan personally thinks that compared with the greasy Quanjude, the crispy Bianyifang is more suitable for him.
Moreover, the number of people eating roast duck at Bian Yi Fang was not as large as that at Quan Ju De, so it was relatively quiet. The three of them asked for a private room, ordered roast duck, and chose some cold dishes, duck tongue being a must...
While waiting for the meal to be served, Zhang Ping An did not think about telling the two of them that he had ordered duck tongue, and he would not tell them even when they were eating. Because they just ate it without knowing. But after he told them, even if they thought it tasted good, they still felt uncomfortable in their hearts. So Zhang Ping An did not plan to tell the two of them.
Zhang Ping An wiped his hands while saying, "Oh my God, it's too hot. Walking in the square, especially in places where there is no shade at all. Oh my God... it's a bit unbearable."
Because the front door is a pedestrian street, you can only walk if you want to come here to eat, and there are relatively few shades here. Although they are holding parasols, the weather outside... Taeyeon nodded and said, "This weather, I finally understand why you are playing games in the room every time I chat with you on video. No one would want to go out, right? This street, I have seen All tourists. "
Zhang Pingan said with emotion: "That's for sure. In such hot weather, no one wants to hang out before the sun sets. Especially at noon when the sun is shining directly, it's simply life-threatening. Maybe you will get heat stroke."
Tiffany nodded and said: "How about we not go to the Forbidden City after dinner? It's too hot. Didn't he just say that there is no shade in the Forbidden City?"
In this mid-August weather, the only people who visit the Forbidden City in the afternoon are probably those tourists who are traveling with a tour group. They have to go because of time constraints. Taeyeon and Tiffany are not traveling with a tour group, so there is no time limit. So, go to the Forbidden City this afternoon? It's better not to ask for trouble.
Zhang Pingan nodded and said, "You can tell from searching pictures on your phone that there is no shade inside, so don't go today. If you ask me, we should just go back and take a nap after dinner, and then wait until about three or four o'clock, and then go out to the department store to shop. After shopping, we can also have dinner inside. As for the Forbidden City, we should arrange to go there tomorrow morning. The weather in the morning is a little better."
Indeed, the weather outside is too hot. Taeyeon nodded and said, "Okay, after dinner, let's go back and rest. The weather in Yanjing is similar to Seoul. It's too hot!"
While the three were chatting, the roast duck was pushed over. Taeyeon and Tiffany took out their phones and started filming the chefs slicing the duck.
The duck skin was dipped in sugar, which was fragrant, sweet, and crispy, and the taste was explosive. Taeyeon and Tiffany closed their eyes in enjoyment. Then wrap the roast duck, the sweet sauce is matched with the dough, and the roast duck meat and skin are mixed with cucumbers and scallions. The taste is simply amazing. Taeyeon and Tiffany kept exclaiming.
When the duck tongues came up, Zhang Pingan picked some for them. He nodded with satisfaction, while Taeyeon and Tiffany ate the duck tongues with some doubts. Because when they saw this thing, they couldn't recognize what it was. Zhang Pingan just said it was offal.
