Chapter 274 Era
The old house of Chu Ge's family is relatively close to the city center. It is an old government dormitory building from the 1980s.
Before the reform, Nanjiang was still very dilapidated. The location of the old house was considered to be on the outskirts of the city. As the city is now expanding outwards, it is now considered the center of the city...
Chu Ge didn’t know. It was just the XX Institute of Geology back then, but how could it become so tall now... He also didn’t know how many of those in the neighborhood were from real geological institutes, and how many were from special departments. Maybe only his parents were special? No matter how you look at it, you don’t think there’s anything special about those gossipy adults and aunties around you.
This dormitory community is a bit embarrassing. The main reason is that similar old and shabby elementary schools in the city center are often divided into school districts. Unfortunately, they are unlucky. There is a street to the left and a corner to the right. However, they are not in the school district.
It's not a school district house, but it hasn't been demolished...
Due to the location in the city center, the rent is still high, and it is not easy to rent in an old and run-down apartment.
After Chu Ge moved out, he tried to rent a house for a while. Maybe he was unlucky. No one looked at the house for several months. He encountered a few waves of visitors who were difficult to deal with. After a few attempts, he wasted a lot of time coding. I didn't plan to rent it, so I just threw it away.
There are quite a few such embarrassing old and young people in Nanjiang City, and Chu Ge and his neighborhood are not the only ones like this, but they are all quite unlucky anyway.
However, I don’t feel so depressed when I think that sooner or later the demolition will inevitably happen. No matter how late it is, it will still be better than those demolished in the first generation...
Qiu Wuji held Chu Ge's arm and walked in the old alley with some curiosity. She didn't expect there to be such an old place in the city center. She felt that even the buildings from a hundred years ago on the Bund were newer than this one...
Chu Ge told her before that the local snacks should be found in the alleys, but they have never implemented it. If they had known it, they would have come a long time ago. It feels quite interesting. There is an illusion of traveling back from modern society to a few decades ago. Compared with walking through books Don't have a taste.
"This was less than forty years ago?" Qiu Wuji asked.
"yes."
"The changes in these forty years seem to be greater than our four thousand years."
Chu Ge was startled and said with a smile: "Yes. Just talking about smartphones, scan code payment, high-speed rail... these are just these years. When I was a child, I still saw people using BP machines, Big Brother, and taking green trains, ugh~ Besides, Besides~"
Qiu Wuji burst into laughter.
"From BP to Nokia, and now, it has actually been three eras." Chu Ge added: "Looking at today's new energy and autonomous driving... Every year when I look back on last year, I feel that it has changed to a different era. You I am born in this era, which is an era of witnessing miracles. The changes I have seen in this life will be more than those seen by the ancients for more than ten generations. For a young man who writes code words, I often feel that this is my luck. "
"You and I were born in this era"... Qiu Wuji chewed for a moment, smiled brightly, and said "hmm".
I was also born in this era.
And the changes you and I have seen are beyond this era.
We have also seen ancient times and Xianxia, and I want to try such changes in the Xianxia world.
The two of them were full of literary ideas, which disappeared the moment they stepped into the gate of the community.
Before anyone arrived, I heard someone saying: "Old Li from the Bureau of Land and Resources rides a Phoenix to get off work every day. I asked him why he didn't buy a battery-powered bike, and he said to exercise, hahaha..."
"Isn't it just stingy? Hahaha..."
"I heard that his son got a 211."
"The results of their batch of children are all good, but the son of Mr. Xu, the tax collector, is disabled. I heard he was going to do a live broadcast, which didn't make Mr. Xu mad to death."
"It must have been better in the past few years. Each generation is not as good as the last..."
"What's the use? Isn't that boy from the Chu family also a 211? He came out to work as a writer in a state-owned enterprise. He thought he had a bright future. But after only two years of working, he started talking nonsense and had nothing to do. Now that the boss is no longer young, he doesn't know how to find a girlfriend. No, Lao Chu and his wife couldn’t take care of their children if they were transferred to the capital, so what’s so good about the capital?”
"Don't tell me, I heard that kid from my family said that writing books is very profitable now, like 100 million a year."
"There's Jack Ma involved in business, and there's you too. Can it be the same thing?"
"Ahahaha... It's not as good as your iron rice bowl. I heard that wages have been increased recently?"
"Yes, it has increased by more than eighty..."
"Isn't it more than a hundred?"
"It depends on the length of service. Lao Zhang only has more than 100. I can't compare..."
"Hey, have you heard that Wang XX's wife went into her section chief's office yesterday and came out after an hour..."
"Hey, let me tell you this. What I heard is like this...hehe..."
Qiu Wuji slowed down his pace all the way, feeling that his feet could no longer move.
Turning around the door tremblingly, I saw two rows of stone benches, with a group of old men and women sitting on them, basking in the sun, eating melon seeds and chatting.
Seeing someone appear outside the gate, the two rows of people and horses all turned their heads. Qiu Wuji always felt as if he was walking in the underworld. The eyes of the two rows of bull-headed and horse-faced faces were green, and the Naihe Bridge was in the middle of the stone bench.
Who can walk past the most terrifying intelligence agency in the world without changing their expression?
The Qiu Sect Master who dominates the world feels guilty, it is so terrifying!
Chu Ge, on the other hand, was very calm. He walked in with Qiu Wuji on his arm with a half-smile, and waved his right hand in a circle like a military parade: "Basing in the sun? I feel relieved when I see everyone is so healthy. By the way, who is sunbathing in the yard? Have you discussed the quilt? Don’t start fighting again at noon. It’s a neighbor’s affair and it won’t be good for outsiders to see.”
"..." A group of people were stunned by Chu Ge's preemptive strike. By the time they realized it, Chu Ge was already about to cross the Naihe Bridge.
"Hey, hey, Chu Ge!" Finally an aunt came to her senses: "Is this your girlfriend?"
Chu Geqiu and Wuji were holding hands. Of course they were boyfriend and girlfriend at first glance. The big reason why people were stunned was that he just said that he couldn't find a girlfriend, but he ended up holding hands with a stunning beauty. Her beauty was so bright that even the aunt Everyone was shocked, not to mention the uncles and uncles, they still feel like they are in a dream.
Where did the fairy come from?
This OL outfit looks just like the cool female CEO from the book The Dragon King’s Son-in-law. Isn’t this Chu boy going to be the Dragon King?
Chu Ge turned around with a half-smile and looked at the aunt who asked the question: "I just heard that Aunt Zhang is very concerned about my life-long affairs. Thank you. I'm bringing my girlfriend to visit my hometown and get to know her."
Someone immediately asked: "Xiao Chu, which unit is your girlfriend in? This temperament..."
Qiu Wuji knew how to pretend for him, and said calmly: "I opened a company by myself, and it won't be enough to make a fuss."
"Hiss... Xiao Chu, is the person you wrote the book about Douyin the Dragon King's son-in-law?"
Chu Ge's mouth twisted: "Is that so?"
The old man was happy: "Yes, yes, that's it, you're not crooked enough..."
"Because I'm not crooked enough, I'm not as awesome as him."
"Well, you already have a girlfriend, are you still writing books? This income..."
"The income is average. It doesn't depend on clicks. You can't buy it in the store." Chu Ge directly clicked three times.
The aunts lamented: "Why don't you want to find a job? It would be nice to just do something in your girlfriend's company!"
Qiu Wuji finally said: "Why does a famous writer want to work for others?"
uncle:"?"
Aunt: "?"
famous writer?
A famous author that you can’t even buy in bookstores?
Girl, could it be that you were deceived into lameness?
At this time, a young man ran out of the courtyard: "Chu Da, Chu Da! You are back! I told others that I was in the same courtyard as Chu Da, but no one believed me!"
Chugoqi said: "Where are you hanging out? Why don't I see anyone in the group come to me to recognize my family?"
"It's harmful... I watched pirated copies. Change your past mistakes and make an alliance with me, Brother Chu! Brother Chu, I just watched the news. Penguin announced the production of your animation, and Datang Lighting and Film Company officially launched a new Casting for the drama, Brother Chu, you are my idol!”
TV drama!
The eyes of the uncles and aunts changed.
Chu Ge patted the young man on the shoulder: "Forget it, leader." He turned to look at the aunts and said with a smile: "The salary has been increased by more than eighty yuan every month, and the increase in one year is just enough for you to join the alliance."
The young man chuckled: "They don't know, Brother Chu, don't you know that I have more admirals and governors every month than there are people in the courtyard. I don't want to say more, Brother Chu, are you coming back to live now?"
Chu Ge twitched his cheeks and suddenly realized that others made more money than him.
He couldn't pretend anymore, Chu Ge took Qiu Wuji's hand and ran away in panic: "You play, I will take my girlfriend to see my hometown, see my hometown..."
The young man followed and shouted: "Qiuqiu~my Qiuqiu~"
Qiu Wuji staggered, and the soles of his high heels almost broke.
Turning around, I saw that it was quiet on the Naihe Bridge. Many people were stunned, and they no longer felt the same sense of terror as before.
This is not Chu Ge's clothes, but the times.
