1993 My China Entertainment Age

Chapter 5 Encounter on the train, officially becoming a member of Beidiao!

Jiang Xiaofeng felt that the girl looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before, so he couldn't help but take a second look. The girl felt a little embarrassed when he saw her, and her face turned red.

At this moment, someone deliberately "coughed", and Jiang Xiaofeng noticed that there was an elegant and handsome middle-aged man sitting next to the girl, who looked like her father.

The scene suddenly became awkward. Jiang Xiaofeng quickly put away his eyes and politely greeted the middle-aged man: "Hello, uncle, are you going to Yanjing?"

The middle-aged man didn't say much, just said a perfunctory "hmm", and his expression looked a bit serious, giving people the impression that he was not allowed to approach strangers.

The girl looked at Jiang Xiaofeng's bright bald head, thinking that he got on the train from Zhengzhou Station, and asked curiously: "Are you a monk from the Shaolin Temple?"

Jiang Xiaofeng touched his head and denied with a smile: "I am not a monk, I am a lay disciple of Shaolin Temple, specializing in martial arts."

"You know martial arts? That's amazing." The girl's eyes were full of admiration.

Jiang Xiaofeng smiled, and then asked: "What about you? Are you a student?"

The girl nodded: "Well, I am an athlete."

Jiang Xiaofeng had never seen such an elegant and refined athlete, and asked with great interest: "What kind of sport do you do?"

The girl proudly said: "Rhythmic gymnastics."

Jiang Xiaofeng suddenly realized: "So that's it."

The girl didn't understand what Jiang Xiaofeng meant and asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Jiang Xiaofeng smiled and replied: "It's nothing, I just think you are very different from the female athletes in my impression."

The girl then asked: "What's different? Why didn't I notice it?"

After Jiang Xiaofeng thought for a moment, he said: "General female athletes look more masculine, like boys. You are different. You look very ladylike, quiet, and beautiful."

As soon as she finished speaking, before the girl had time to feel shy, the middle-aged man's cough suddenly sounded again.

With the corner of his eye, Jiang Xiaofeng had already spotted the girl's father standing aside, staring at him eagerly. He didn't dare to do anything wrong again and quickly looked away.

After the girl was praised by Jiang Xiaofeng, she was obviously a little embarrassed. In front of her father, she was too embarrassed to talk to the handsome young man in front of her. She had to close her eyes and concentrate, pretending that nothing happened.

The two of them arrived in Baoding without talking like this. Many passengers came up, and Jiang Xiaofeng could only leave on his own initiative and return his seat to them.

at dusk.

The train arrived at Yanjing Station. Passengers carrying large and small bags were crowding and pushing each other. Jiang Xiaofeng waited for a while before getting off the train carrying the sacks.

Yanjing Station is worthy of being the Capital Railway Station. When passing by the waiting room, Jiang Xiaofeng looked around and found that there were people everywhere, luggage everywhere, and there was no place to step down. People were smoking, eating instant noodles, and playing cards.

People chatting with various accents...it was really smoky and chaotic.

After coming out of Yanjing Station, Jiang Xiaofeng walked aimlessly on the street. Looking at the road that was two or three times wider than Zhengzhou and the endless crowds of people, he suddenly felt that he seemed extremely small in this big city.

After walking for a while, Jiang Xiaofeng felt that it was getting dark, so he stopped first and put the sack on the ground.

Jiang Xiaofeng wrapped herself in a black coat and decided to find a hotel for one night and then rent a house tomorrow.

After walking for about twenty minutes, it was already dark, and Jiang Xiaofeng walked into a hotel that seemed to be well decorated, booked a room for 10 yuan, and paid a 10 yuan deposit.

The proprietress was a fat, middle-aged woman with wavy hair. After receiving Jiang Xiaofeng's deposit, she went to the next room and got a bedding for Jiang Xiaofeng.

Immediately afterwards, the landlady took a bunch of keys and led Jiang Xiaofeng up to the second floor.

"You can stay in this room! Check out at 1 o'clock tomorrow noon!" As she said that, the landlady stopped at the corner of the second floor and opened a room for Jiang Xiaofeng with the key.

Jiang Xiaofeng entered the room and discovered that the paint on the surrounding walls had peeled off due to moisture, the faucets in the bathroom were rusty, and there were a few hairs on the toilet seat.

The environment almost didn't matter. It was just for one night anyway, and the room rate wasn't too expensive. The only thing Jiang Xiaofeng couldn't accept was the musty smell of the room and quilt.

However, with a temporary place to stay, Jiang Xiaofeng could finally put down his luggage with peace of mind and go out to find food.

Jiang Xiaofeng, who had just arrived, did not dare to spend money randomly. He just ate some fast food at a fast food restaurant, bought some necessary daily necessities on the way, and hurried back to the hotel.

After settling his luggage, Jiang Xiaofeng took the cash from his underwear and shoe soles out of the plastic bag, divided it into several parts, and hid them in several corners of the room.

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xiaofeng took some change and went to the bathhouse near the hotel to take a bath.

The bathhouses in Yanjing are relatively authentic and authentic, unlike those newly opened sauna centers that have been corrupted and infiltrated by the evil capitalism.

In addition to traditional programs such as back rubs, pedicures, and massages, the sauna center has also added modern programs such as massage, deep x, xxxx, xxx, and thermal shock.

After Jiang Xiaofeng paid 1 yuan and handed over the tablet, the waiter standing at the door casually shouted: "One of you can take a bath!" The voice was loud and clear, and everyone in the hall heard it.

At this time, the waiter who was leading the seat also shouted: "Here you are! Please come inside..."

The last sound is long and the words are straight and round, which is called authentic.

The bathhouses in Yanjing are divided into the Southern School and the Northern School: the Southern School is mainly based in Yangzhou, and the bathing techniques are delicate, focusing on light hands and even force, and massaging the head after the bath; the Northern School pays attention to steady hands.

, the strength is even, the effort is all about the strength of the hands, after rubbing, the body should not be bruised or purple, but should be red. This is obviously different from the southern style.

Jiang Xiaofeng himself is a practitioner, and his physical resistance attribute has already been maxed out. It doesn't matter whether he is from the southern or northern sect. He can do whatever he likes, so he will let his master from the northern sect give him a bath.

After you feel comfortable and clean, and you are about to leave, the waiter in charge of serving Jiang Xiaofeng's bunk will shout loudly: "See you off."

Just like when he came in, every time Jiang Xiaofeng passed by a waiter, a waiter would shout in response: "Slow down."

When they arrived at the entrance of the bathing pool, the waiter opened the door for Jiang Xiaofeng and said, "Welcome back!" The shouting voice revealed the unique kindness and enthusiasm of the old Yanjing.

After spending one night in a hotel, Jiang Xiaofeng ran out of the hotel early the next morning, ate a bowl of wonton noodles, and then walked through the streets and alleys looking for a house.

Jiang Xiaofeng was quite lucky. It only took him two days to rent a house in a large courtyard in an alley in Qicheng District.

The so-called "large courtyard" refers to a courtyard where more than ten families live, which is called a large courtyard. This is very different from a "siheyuan".

The house is definitely not a good one. It is old, the walls are pitch black, and the walls feel like they will fall off at any time. There is only a wooden bed in the house, and not much else, not even a table or chairs.

Jiang Xiaofeng didn't mind it either, because with a monthly rent of 30 yuan, it was already a very fortunate thing to have a decent room in the XC area of ​​the second ring road of the capital.

Except for the landlord's family, the tenants living in this courtyard are all "Beijing drifters", coming from all over the world and from all walks of life.

When the neighbors heard that a Shaolin Temple monk had come to the yard, they were quite novel and enthusiastic. They not only gave Jiang Xiaofeng a lot of old newspapers, but also lent him paste and brushes.

Jiang Xiaofeng spent another day polishing the glass and cleaning the floors and walls before he could live here comfortably.

Including car fare, rent, and the newly bought washbasin, chamber pot, and kettle, after four or five days of traveling, Jiang Xiaofeng had spent a total of 173 yuan, leaving only 453 yuan in savings.

According to Jiang Xiaofeng's plan, he decided to keep his food expenses within 5 yuan a day and 1 yuan for a bath every three days. If he doesn't get seriously ill or encounter a major car accident, he should be able to survive in Yanjing for 2 months.

Good days.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaofeng must find a way to make a living within the next two months that will allow him to continue living in Yanjing.

It is impossible to work part-time. Jiang Xiaofeng, who has memories of his past life, does not intend to perform on the street anymore. He knows very well that the money in the Chinese entertainment industry is the best.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaofeng decided to abandon martial arts and pursue literature, becoming a free literary and artistic worker.
