The leisurely life of rebirth

It was dark when we arrived yesterday, so we couldn't see the scenery clearly.

The longitude and latitude of Seoul is similar to that of Yantai.

The overall climate is similar as well.

This season is not very cold, it still has the afterglow of summer, and it is a little cool in the morning and evening, which is very comfortable.

Looking out the window, I looked at the jagged high and low buildings, as well as buildings with hugely different decoration styles.

There is a real sense of fragmentation.

It is obviously a modern country, but why is the architectural style so old? It feels a bit like a third- or fourth-tier city.

Why do Korean dramas have filters when they are shot?

I have to say that photographers will still find them.

There has been no major development for decades, so that's it. It will most likely be the same in China in the future. After the period of rapid development, what's left will be slow development and old-fashioned ways.

"Master, where are we going?" Zhou You asked.

"Gwangjang Market is our oldest traditional market with more than 5000 stalls selling all kinds of clothing, bedding, kitchen supplies, fruits, vegetables, meat and sacrificial supplies. You can eat authentic Korean food here, Such as mung bean pancakes, seaweed rice rolls, barley bibimbap, raw octopus, etc." explained the driver.

Zhou You nodded, chuckled, and said nothing.

Seoul, formerly known as Seoul, was renamed Seoul in 2005. It is a small place.

With an area of ​​more than 600 square kilometers and a population of nearly million, the population density is really high.

That is the standard for a provincial capital in China.

Luzhou has an area of ​​more than 10,000 square kilometers and a population of nearly 10 million. However, the urban area is only 5 to 6 million square kilometers and there are 4 to 5 million people in the urban area.

Calculating it this way, there is really nothing to see.

The only difference may be that it is considered a foreign country.

The roads are crowded and there are blasts of whistles. An impatient nation, an impatient country.

"Master, those high-rise buildings look pretty good, what kind of companies are they?" Zhou You felt that there was a really strong sense of fragmentation, especially in some places, there was an illusion of an urban-rural fringe.

The master hesitated for a long time before saying: "Those are the office buildings of several big companies, such as Samsung, Hyundai, and Kia."

Zhou You nodded: "He belongs to the big chaebol."

The master did not dare to continue talking.

As silent as a cicada.

Don't look at Korean movies, where they criticize the sky and the earth, expose the government's inaction, and denounce the government's corruption.

But look, how many of them dare to speak out against these chaebols?

Even if you say it, it's just a general talk and you don't dare to reveal the essence?

What is the essence?

Just a comprador.

The only major national affairs are sacrifice and military affairs.

A country actually has foreign troops stationed there. If you say this is an independent country, who would believe it?

The country is not independent? Can a company be independent?

Are other countries watching you make money?

Stop being ridiculous, you have to be mentally retarded to believe these words, believe in pie in the sky, believe in being willing to help the country, believe in God's way to reward those who work hard, and believe in mutual help and love!

It would be informative to come out and take a look around more. No wonder the people who were born here want to escape from here.

There is a saying that is good.

The family is prosperous in the hometown, but the population is declining in the north, Shanghai and Guangzhou.

To put it bluntly: If you have the ability to stay in your hometown, you will not have to worry about food, drink, and fun, and your family will have everything arranged. Who wants to go out and suffer the consequences of working?

If you don't have the ability, you can only rely on yourself. It's better to go to Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou to try your luck. You will suffer hardships, but maybe there is a glimmer of hope.

Humans are also animals that seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Not stupid.

When I arrived at Guangzang, I saw two big characters "Guangzang" when I got off the bus.

Along the way, I also saw many things marked with Chinese characters, either traditional or simplified. They have been attached to the land of China for thousands of years. It is not that simple to drive out the influence.

Before entering, Zhou You felt a restlessness inside.

Why does it feel like a wholesale market? When I was a child, I traveled to large wholesale markets in towns and counties, where clothes, shoes, hats and other commodities were sold.

Seoul is a mixed bag.

Everything is inside, and coupled with the high population density, it is really crowded and row upon row.

In a word, people are crowded and people are looking at each other, and I feel huge pressure in an instant.

Comparable to canned sardines.

After waiting for a while, Azhen was not seen arriving.

Just as he was about to make a call, he saw a beautiful figure running towards him.

White hot shorts, a black T-shirt, a long windbreaker that reaches the knees, and white sneakers.

Far away, I heard: "Oppa, Brother You."

This spirit is completely different from lying flat on your back. This is the mental outlook that a young girl should have.

What a sin it is to have no vitality at such a young age.

But along the way, I really didn’t see many happy smiling faces.

He ran up to Zhou You, jumped into Zhou You's arms, hugged Zhou You's neck with both hands, and started mumbling.

Zhou You shook his hands and felt full.

"Yes, I've gained weight, and I look more energetic." Zhou You said happily.

"Well, thanks to Brother You, I can live a decent life." Azhen said happily. Now she no longer has to worry about money and can be a primary school teacher with peace of mind.

The two chatted for a while and then prepared to enter the market.

"Let's go. Now that we're here, let's open our eyes and see how the people of Seoul are so prosperous." Zhou You motioned to the bus to go ahead and clear the way. No one was clearing the way, so it was really hard to squeeze in.

After speaking, Lao Ba and Miao Wei were in the front, and Li Houliang and Batu were in the back.

Start rushing forward.

"Oppa, what are you doing here this time?" Azhen really didn't know what Zhou You was doing, nor was she very clear about what industries Zhou You had.

"The main thing is to see you and have fun. Let's go watch the filming of a variety show. I am one of the investors." Zhou You said briefly.

It’s really not easy to shoot in this place, it’s so crowded.

The only good thing is that the filming is really convenient, and it can be regarded as the peak episode of Running Man.

"Brother You, Brother You, we are here!" At this time, Zhou You heard a familiar Central Plains accent.

Following the sound, I saw Wang Baoqiang jumping up and down there, raising one hand to the sky: "Brother You, Brother You."

"Hey, isn't this Brother Qiang? Why are you here too?" Zhou You was still confused, as he didn't seem to see him yesterday.

Wang Baoqiang also squeezed forward, grinning widely, scratching his head and saying, "Hey, I only arrived in the middle of the night. I didn't pick up Brother You yesterday."

"I forgot, I forgot, you are also a resident guest." Zhou You really forgot, because he was not there in the next few episodes, and he thought he was just here to be a flying guest.

Wang Baoqiang was still a little guilty, but after hearing this, he started to feel a little sad: "I am the main guest, okay, it's very important."

"Okay, it's very important. Let's go and shoot. I'll take a look around and have dinner together in the evening." After saying that, Wang Baoqiang was sent away.

You can't interrupt the filming, let alone be edited in. You have to talk to Deng Chao when you go back.

It’s a bit annoying if someone I know sees it at a domestic screening. Send them away.

Zhouyou started to play with the mentality of a tourist.

Along the way, there were only a lot of people in the dining area, which were all roadside stalls.

A group of people from East Asia, Europe, and Africa.

But most of them still have East Asian faces.

"Azhen, I'll leave the rest to you. Lead us and buy some snacks." If you don't use a tour guide, you'd be a fool.

"Okay." Azhen was still very happy.

I walked to the front first and squeezed through the crowded crowd. I saw there were people queuing over there, and separated a few people to queue up separately.

When traveling around, I get tired of queuing up, especially for a bite to eat.

But if you don’t have to wait in line, you can still have a taste.

"Oppa, there is a lot of delicious food here, and there are many repetitive types. The main ones are fried mung bean cakes, raw beef, seaweed rice rolls, rice sausages, and a raw octopus." Azhen said here, Couldn't help but laugh.

Seeing Zhou You's confused face, he continued.

"When eating raw octopus, be sure to chew it a few times, otherwise it will be sucked into your mouth." Azhen explained.

It’s fun to watch other people eat it, but why does it feel so disgusting when you eat it yourself?

Just seeing these things made Zhou You lose his appetite. After trying the fried mung bean cakes and seaweed rice rolls, the rest was to watch them eat.

Especially eating live octopus.

Pick up a small live octopus from the water tank, wash it briefly and shake it dry.

Then he swung his kitchen knife and chopped off several of the octopus's tentacles. From the moment it was caught, the octopus began to struggle and struggle hard.

He held onto the vendor's hand tightly, but all efforts were in vain, and he was pulled off by the vendor abruptly.

The knife struck one of the tentacles.

The octopus rolled around on the chopping board in pain, trying to find a way out.

Some of the remaining tentacles were sucked on the chopping board, some on the kitchen knife, and some wanted to get under the table.

It’s all survival instinct.

Yes, in front of humans, everything is in vain. A long tentacle is chopped into thumb lengths. Just like this, those individual small tentacles are still trying to twitch and squirm.

Azhen took a small piece and placed it on the back of her hand, and she could see the suction cup clinging tightly to her hand.

Zhou You stretched out his hand to pull this section off, but he didn't feel any suction. After pulling it off, he found that the back of Azhen's hand was already a little red.

The ants are still living an ignoble existence.

If you kill, you kill, if you eat, you eat. Why do you want to be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts?

This octopus, after a simple count by Zhou You, had been chopped at least forty or fifty times.

That is to say, they can't speak, or they can't make a sound, otherwise I believe that the sound will be absolutely tragic.

Let go of any desire to travel around.

Except for Azhen and the staff, the rest didn't eat, which was really unacceptable.

It is still moving in the mouth. If it is swallowed directly and the tonsils or esophagus are sucked, what a wonderful picture it will be.

Delicious food cannot be tolerated.

This place is messier than a wet market, and there’s not much to see.

After they took a break, Zhou You said hello to them and left.

Unexpectedly, Azhen was actually a little excited when she saw Running Man and the others, and Zhou You was a little curious.

He asked in confusion: "Didn't you say that the status of Korean celebrities is relatively low?"

Azhen sighed: "The low status is compared to the chaebol. It's still better than ordinary people and makes more money. I'm just curious and not star-chasing."

This is an explanation. Azhen now positions herself very accurately, relying on traveling. Koreans don't get married or have children, and it's not because of the pressure of survival.

To be honest, if you want to relax and have fun, who doesn’t want to get married and have children, see the beautiful mountains and rivers, and enjoy family happiness.

Hey.

Just like that live octopus.

I can't help myself.

"It's okay. Let's have dinner together tonight and let them toast you." Zhou You said, these people come to the mainland to make money, and they themselves are the sponsors, so they still have some face.

Now he is just showing his prominence in the entertainment industry, and he will rise next year. In a few years, he will have to compete with Huayi no matter what.

Then take advantage of it and leave.

"Really?" Azhen looked incredulous.

"Haha, my energy is beyond your imagination." Zhou You said confidently.

This sentence made Azhen laugh, and she couldn't help laughing.

But when he turned around and saw that none of the other people were smiling, he was still a little embarrassed and could only hold Zhou You's arm tightly.

"Oppa, I don't plan to open a beauty salon anymore. Can I keep the remaining money and spend it slowly?" Azhen said in a low voice, her face was still red with embarrassment, and she was actually a little embarrassed.

Unexpectedly, Zhou You laughed happily, hugged Azhen's head and rubbed it: "Haha, you are such a smart girl. 500 million yuan is almost close to 10 billion won. It will be enough for you to be happy for a long time."

"Besides, your economic situation is not good now. House prices have been artificially high. Sooner or later, you will go bankrupt and collapse. No business is suitable for you."

Azhen nodded: "Yes, I visited many places, and the rents are very expensive. I only have enough money to open an ordinary house, and the rent takes up most of the money. I basically work for the landlord."

Azhen originally thought of relying on the beauty salon to make a fortune, and then earn a few million, reach the pinnacle of life, follow Zhou You's plan, follow Zhou You's path, and create a future.

As a result, reality hit me hard.

The channel dealers are also very complicated. I have looked at many companies, but I can't accept the quotation. Even if I force them to open, there are many customers, but if there are some quality problems, I won't be able to solve them by myself.

Traveling far away, even if it can be solved, the cost in manpower and money is estimated to be more than so many years.

After a few months of this, I came across an opportunity to travel here, and I just said it.

Traveling around is also boring and fun. If you don’t want to open it, then don’t open it, and you can stop the loss in time.

In this life, eating and drinking are enough.

"Well, if you want to buy a house, you can buy a small house to live in first. Don't buy too big. The bubble is too serious. At worst, you will go to live in China. It's too depressing here." Zhou You said with emotion.

To see whether the people of a country are happy or not, just look at the young people.

When young people have hope, everyone has hope.

If young people have no hope, there is basically no hope.

When traveling around, you rarely see the smiling faces of young people on the road. It’s really fucked that such a small and run-down city can still be so depressing.

I think of Zhuangzi's Xiaoyaoyou, two snails on the horns, and two countries killing each other until rivers of blood flowed.

In fact, from the perspective of humans, snails are just very small animals, and their two tentacles are even smaller, so what is there to earn?

There is no freedom in it.

Jump out and see the world! (End of chapter)
