Chapter 544 4 Sichuan girl Jiang Xiaoyu
After settling in Lin Ran and his family's accommodation, Jiang Zhou warmly invited them to have a meal in the hotel and talk about opening a branch.
Regarding the Shuzhou branch, Lin Ran actually thought about it for a long time before making up his mind.
Branches will definitely be opened, but opening a branch is not a matter of words.
As the second largest city in Sichuan Province, the rent in Shuzhou is very cheap, and it will be promoted to the outside world as the second largest business card of Sichuan Province in the future.
This is something Lin Ran is optimistic about.
Moreover, Jiang Hao can also be regarded as his friend.
Friends are friends, but there are still some things that need to be clarified.
Planning to speak clearly at the banquet, he also made a planning project for the Shuzhou branch.
They had already taken their seats, but Jiang Hao seemed to be still waiting for someone.
"Is there anyone else who's not here?" Lin Ran asked.
"Not my precious niece yet."
Jiang Hao glanced at Jiang Zhou with ulterior motives.
Jiang Zhou was drinking tea by himself, not looking at him at all.
Anyway, they were waiting for the waiter to serve their food, and they chatted about the scenic spots in Shuzhou while drinking tea.
"Brother Jiang, you are not familiar with Chengdu, but you should know the scenic spots in Shuzhou, right?" Lin Ran saw that the atmosphere at the dinner table was a bit tense, so he took the initiative to stir up the topic.
In fact, he does have needs in this regard.
Before Jiang Hao could speak, Jiang Zhou laughed: "Don't worry, I'll introduce you to someone later. She knows a lot about playing!"
When Jiang Zhou said this, Lin Ran couldn't help but become interested.
Apparently, they also found a tour guide for them?It's really thoughtful.
As the second largest city in Sichuan Province, Shuzhou naturally has many cultural sites and tourist attractions.
Lin Ran still had some expectations in his heart.
As soon as he finished saying this, there was a knock on the door of the box.
"It's finally here."
Jiang Hao stood up immediately with a smile and ran to open the door.
A sunny girl stood at the door of the box.
He shouted in a sweet voice: "Uncle Jiang Hao, which distinguished guest do you want to meet today?"
Jiang Hao also changed his usual dismissive tone and said with a smile: "It's Brother Lin who I mentioned to you before. He brought his family to Shuzhou for a trip, and he just happened to bring you to get to know him."
The girl immediately looked inside the box and glanced around. Finally, her eyes fell on Lin Ran, and then she smiled slightly.
Only then did Lin Ran see her appearance clearly.
The girl has long shawl hair with slightly curled hair at the ends, and is wearing a fashionable white dress.
She walked into the box and smelled a special fragrance.
If you look closely, your skin is extremely hydrated, like a porcelain doll, with no flaws visible!
Jiang Zhou said somewhat seriously: "Xiaoyu, sit down quickly, I'm waiting for you."
"I got it~" The girl stuck out her tongue, walked into the box, and greeted everyone with a smile: "Uncle, aunt, sister, and Lin Ran, hello, I'm Jiang Xiaoyu, nice to meet you."
Then, she sat next to Lin Wanjun.
Lin Wanjun said enviously: "Sister, your skin is so good!"
"Ha, that may be because Sichuan has a good climate, which is especially suitable for women. They don't need to replenish water frequently." Jiang Xiaoyu put down her bag and said affectionately: "But sister, you are also naturally beautiful and have good skin."
It turns out that this girl is the distinguished guest Jiang Hao said he wanted to introduce.
After Jiang Xiaoyu entered, the food began to be served in the private room.
The cuisine in Shuzhou is very special. The spiciness here is completely different from other places.
It's neither spicy nor spicy, but it gives people a very satisfying feeling.
"Sichuan spicy food is very special because our climate is humid and we need to eat spicy food to expel excess water from the body." Jiang Xiaoyu introduced.
"No wonder the skin is so good." Lin Ran also nodded.
Due to Jiang Xiaoyu's appearance, the atmosphere at the dinner table became much better.
Jiang Xiaoyu and Lin Wanjun were sitting together, looking as close as sisters.
After drinking some wine, the atmosphere at the table became better. Even Jiang Hao laughed: "Brother Lin, you have chosen the right time to come to Shuzhou this time."
"Choose the right time?" Lin Ran was a little confused.
"My niece is studying in college in other places. She happens to be resting at home these days. She is a professional homeless person. It is perfect for her to take you to play."
"Uncle! What are you talking about?" Jiang Xiaoyu curled her lips.
"Haha, isn't this a compliment for your familiarity with the local scenic spots?" Jiang Hao quickly explained.
"But, what you just said didn't sound like a compliment." Jiang Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao was full of distrust towards other people, and his speech was often harsh, but for this niece, he was full of love.
His niece has a lively personality and is a typical Sichuan girl. She has a cheerful personality, fashionable clothes, and a star earring.
It can be seen that she should be a very popular person in the school!
Jiang Xiaoyu seemed particularly interested in Lin Ran. During the meal, he kept asking about the previous visit to the tomb.
Lin Ran didn't want to answer because he didn't tell his family that he was in danger in the tomb.
Perhaps because she understood Lin Ran's eyes, she did not mention the danger again, but asked: "I heard that you cracked a mortise and tenon mechanism inside, but I didn't expect that you actually understand architectural structures?"
Jiang Zhou also explained: "My daughter studied architecture in college, so she pays special attention to this aspect."
It turned out to be the case.
Lin Ran said modestly: "Actually, I don't know much about architecture. I only have a little research on institutions. I have seen it in books before, especially the buildings of the Tang Dynasty. There were no steel bars and cement at that time. Nails were rarely used. , so most house structures are supported by mortise and tenon joints.”
"Yes, the houses at that time were so beautiful! Unlike now, they are all square and look like a steel forest." Jiang Xiaoyu agreed.
"What are you talking about?" Jiang Zhou said harshly to his daughter, "Times are progressing. How can we keep looking at the past? The mortise and tenon structure is stable, but it is still far behind compared to steel bars."
"I know, but we always have to leave some cultural heritage, right? Otherwise, there is no difference between the place where we live and the steel jungle." Jiang Xiaoyu responded to his father without fear.
Jiang Zhou shook his head helplessly. He could face others calmly.
But facing an only daughter, it was really difficult.
Jiang Zhou had no choice but to say: "Aren't there enough ancient buildings in Shuzhou that have enough humanistic care?"
"I heard that a number of residential communities will be demolished in the future. Dad, you have to stop it!"
"Isn't it more comfortable to live in a community than to live in a farmer's house?" Jiang Zhou was helpless.
Hearing this, Jiang Hao was not happy either.
"Brother, you have really forgotten your roots. When we were young, we lived in a tile-roofed wooden house and had a very happy life, didn't we?" As he said this, Jiang Hao and Jiang Xiaoyu high-fived.
"Okay. There are other people here today, so don't talk about these unhappy things." Jiang Zhou felt a little embarrassed, so he changed the subject.
