Chapter 725 I drew an X on you in my heart

Wu Yuan changed into a simple T-shirt, jeans, white sneakers, a hat and sunglasses, and looked like an ordinary college student.

To be honest, he was a little excited.

Going on an incognito visit, this must be a treatment only for princes and princesses, right?

He did not grow up with Zheng Juan since he was a child. He was brought back by his father from his adoptive parents in the mainland.

So he really had a hard time.

At one point I thought that life in Hong Kong was just a dream.

It was not until his mother Zheng Juan's care and love gradually nurtured his fear and anxiety that he grew up day by day, living and studying in Hong Kong.

Sometimes he wondered why his last name was not Wang.

Because all the other brothers and sisters have the surname Wang!

But his mother Zheng Juan told him that because his biological mother, Wu Lanfang, died giving birth to him, his name was in memory of his biological mother.

His origin is the middle character of his father Xiangjiang's name.

However, his brother Wang Zheng had talked to him and told him that if he really wanted to change his surname back to Wang, he should wait until he got married and had children, and then change the children's surname back to Wang, which would be considered as returning to his ancestral roots. Of course, the boy could also be surnamed Wang and the girl Wu, to show that they would not forget their birth mother's kindness.

Wang Zheng was quite smart. When he met his grandparents for the first time at the age of four and a half, he kowtowed continuously, saying that he wanted to make up for the kowtows he owed to his grandparents in previous years. This amazed the whole family at the time.

Later, when he grew up, he seemed to be indistinguishable from the crowd. But Wang Yuanchao knew that his son had actually begun to learn to hide his shortcomings and realize his inner talent!
He was excellent in all aspects of his studies. If Wang Yuanchao had not really cared about his children and paid more attention to equality and equal treatment, he might have missed out on this excellent child.

Any homework or task assigned to Wang Zheng is done very well, and it has been like this for more than ten years.

In public, he never takes the lead, and even if he does something, he will drag everyone along with him.

For example, two years ago, when Wang Yuanchao took in his eighth concubine Guan Zhilin, Wang Zheng would pull Wu Yuan together to discuss and put on a show for everyone, as if Wu Yuan had proposed the matter, and then he would also pull Wang Yang, who was of the same age, to join in, without revealing anything.

Wang Yuanchao talked to Zheng Juan about how to educate this child. Zheng Juan said shyly:
"Brother Yuan Chao, I didn't teach you much.

I just taught him that he should not forget his roots and should help Zhibai from his aunt's family. Zhibai is the backbone of the next generation of our Wang family. With this backbone, the Wang family will be stable and will not be bullied by others. "

The words were plain and simple, which made Wang Yuanchao deeply moved.

To be honest, if Zhibai was as good as Wang Zheng, Liu Qijin would laugh in his dreams.

This is the typical child of other people’s family!
So among the group of children, Wang Yuanchao's favorite was actually this child.

But this child, at such a young age, seems to have made up his mind to be the Eighth Wise King in Hong Kong and assist the first wife. Wang Yuanchao wants to see if Wang Zheng can make a name for himself in Boluo State.

Now, apart from Chen Kui and Wang Xiao, there are not many members of the Wang family who have taken root in Boluo State.

However, Wang Ling, the third wife, told him that she would transfer her family to Boluo State in the future. But the brothers Wang Hai and Wang Yang are really handsome in appearance, after all, their father is handsome and their mother is beautiful, but their brains are just average.

She is really average, not smart, but not stupid either. In an imperial family, she is considered average, which is a common evaluation.

Let's get off topic. Speaking of Wu Yuan, with the advice from his brother Wang Zheng, he really wanted to make some achievements in this incognito visit.

Because this was the first time that my father gave everyone a clear task.

He wanted to win his father's favor.

What his biological mother gave him in exchange for her life was just some care from his father in his early years, and later on he basically relied on the extra maternal love from his mother Zheng Juan.

This time there are nine children participating in the incognito visit.

The three girls from the first house were Wang Zhiliu, Wang Zhifeng, and Wang Zhihua;

Wang Chen from the second house;
Wang Hai and Wang Yang from the third room;
Wang Lili, Wang Zheng and Wu Yuan from the fourth room.

The other children were too young, so they just played with the adults in Shangjing.

After going out, Wu Yuan first took a taxi to the city, then changed to a bus and staggered to the train station.

To be honest, taking the bus was a luxury for him when he was a child, but in the following ten years, he basically stopped taking the bus. He was always picked up and dropped off by private cars. Now when he revisited the bus ride again, he felt particularly familiar with it.

There were a lot of people on the bus and he had no seat.

The man in front, wearing an ordinary T-shirt and a flat head, is his bodyguard leader. The man behind him, with the same side-parted hairstyle as Aaron Kwok and his bangs blowing, is his deputy bodyguard leader. There is also a woman in a dress with a good figure and appearance, who is pretending to be a couple with the deputy bodyguard. She is also his bodyguard.

In some situations, it is inconvenient for male bodyguards to be used, so a female bodyguard is needed for emergency situations.

Don't be fooled by his good looks, he is even more capable.

This female bodyguard can't knock down three or two big men with bare hands, but if you give her cold weapons such as darts, flying knives, and flying needles, she will tell you why the flowers are so red. Her hairpins can be opened to become small flying knives! And if you can give her a pistol, it will be even more amazing. Female bodyguards don't fight with their bodies, they mainly rely on weapons and their brains.

He knew that only these three bodyguards would follow him all the way, and as for whether there were other secret agents, he estimated that there would be none. After all, these three people all carried guns and licenses.

Some of them were in a daze, some were flirting, and they seemed to completely ignore Wu Yuan, but Wu Yuan knew that they had already glanced at the people around him several times.

As for the older sisters, they will have one more female bodyguard, which is considered a preferential treatment.

It was still the rainy season in Boluo, and the weather was a bit hot and humid. As more people filled the carriage, it became dirty and filthy.

We dare not open the car windows too wide, as rain will splash in. But we also cannot keep the windows open, otherwise the car will become a stuffy carriage.

Wu Yuan unconsciously squeezed to a gap in the car window. Some rain squeezed into the car, bringing with it fresh air, and he felt much better.

It can't be compared with the cool air conditioning and fresh air in a private car.

However, people who are traveling are used to it. Those who have seats close their eyes and rest, while those who don’t have seats can only chat and kill time.

Some people talk about blind dates, some talk about work, some talk about buying houses, some talk about eating, and some talk about medical treatment and school. It’s like a small society.

Some spoke Mandarin, some spoke Cantonese, and occasionally a few words of Hokkien would pop up, but Wu Yuan couldn't understand any of it.

"Everything is good here, except that it's a little too hot and stuffy."

"Yes, after I came here, my old cold legs have disappeared for many years, and my frostbite has also disappeared. But Doctor Sun said that I have too much dampness now, and I need to get rid of it."

"Isn't it? Where in the world is there no disease? Here, even if we soak in water every day, it's already very difficult to avoid getting sick."

"Don't mention it, our factory conducts physical examinations twice a year, and this is basically the result.

The doctor said that if families can afford it, it would be better to equip their homes with air conditioners.

It keeps you cool and dry, and electricity is really cheap in our country anyway!"

Wu Yuan suddenly had an idea. It would be good if the bus was equipped with air conditioners, or at worst, electric fans to blow some air.
He looked around the carriage and saw that there were no such devices inside. He really wanted to take out his notebook and write them down immediately. This could also improve the travel experience of ordinary people, right?

Sure enough, we still need to listen more to ordinary people’s daily conversations to come up with some ideas.

So he continued to listen.

“I heard that the government subsidizes the power plant?”

"Really? Anyway, we ordinary people don't have much to gain, so it's always a good thing for the government to give us subsidies. If there is no subsidy, it will be the same as in the mainland, and I won't be willing to spend it."

"You already have an air conditioner at home, but you're still reluctant to spend that little bit of electricity? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"

"I mean, if the electricity bill is too expensive, then this is very cheap!" "It's not cheap. My husband has calculated that the more people there are in the family, the more cost-effective the electricity bill is."

"What's the logic behind this? The more people there are, the more cost-effective it is?"

Wu Yuan didn't continue listening because he had arrived at his station.

Just now, when the bodyguard captain passed by him, he nudged him with his elbow because he was listening too intently. It was only because the passenger was not a professional that he just listened casually.

Wu Yuan knows that the more people pay for electricity, the more cost-effective it is.

The electricity fee in Boluo is a tiered price. Each person has a fixed electricity quota. If there are many people in the family, the cheap electricity quota will become larger. If it exceeds this quota, the electricity price will increase significantly.

In this way, ordinary people will not waste electricity like Americans, nor will they be reluctant to turn on the air conditioner because of the electricity bill, causing problems.

The energy in Boluo is so abundant that the coal used for domestic power generation only costs the freight and the operating costs of the coal mines. The coal mines do not think about making money from domestic power plants because this is a target task that must be completed with quality and quantity guaranteed.

As for power plants, they only charge very low fees for residential electricity. As for subsidies, there are none. They just make up for the loss by subsidizing commercial and industrial electricity consumption.

The characteristic of thermal power is stability, so there are many power plants in Boluo State, and the coverage area, cost and profit are all calculated clearly.

The power plant is also an industry of the Wang family and local governments. They are very considerate of the people's electricity, but the power plant will severely punish those who steal civilian electricity, as those are their profits and bonuses.

Air conditioners are subsidized by the government. For each household, the government subsidizes half of the price of an air conditioner. For families with more than three children, the government gives one air conditioner for free.

Anyway, when the weather is hot, we can sleep in one room, which is pretty cool.

Want to create humans?

Can't you pick a time when the kids are not around? If you don't have time, can't you create one?
Therefore, the enthusiasm of Boluo people for having children is still very high. Having many children and the state subsidies are very tempting. Why not have children?
Wu Yuan looked at the huge Shangjing Railway Station and felt a lot of emotions. He didn't know what to do.

He had taken trains before, but they were all special trains that he took directly with his father...

I scratched my head and carefully recalled what the teacher taught me. I have to buy a ticket first!

Fortunately, the ticket office signs of all sizes, in Chinese, English and Malay, are very eye-catching.

He could only hold his umbrella and run to the ticket office to buy a ticket.

Looking at the long queue for tickets, he wondered if he should open a few more windows!

His team moved very slowly, but the teams on both sides were much faster. Wu Yuan felt that the people he was familiar with had all moved to the front of the line, which made Wu Yuan wait even more impatiently.

Not only did he have to buy his own, he also had to buy those for the three bodyguards as well. Otherwise, wouldn't everyone be separated?

But the three bodyguards couldn't come out and queue up with him to buy. If there were four of them in line, it wouldn't be that all four of them would be slow, right?

It’s not that his identity would be easily exposed, but if he doesn’t even experience something like buying a ticket, how can he know that it is so difficult for ordinary people to buy a ticket?

Before departure, the teacher reminded everyone that if they could do without bodyguards, they should try not to have them appear, as that would make the incognito visit meaningless.

“#￥%”

"What?" A man just passed by Wu Yuan and said something. It was either too fast or too soft, so he couldn't hear clearly and couldn't help asking.

The man immediately took a few steps back and came closer. Seeing Wu Yuan subconsciously taking two small steps back, he couldn't help but smiled and whispered:
"Want to buy a ticket? No need to queue!"

Oh, scalper!
Wu Yuan suddenly became energetic.

Logically speaking, he cannot contact scalpers, and his family will prepare whatever he needs.

But sometimes when students share some concerts, they will unconsciously share the experience of buying tickets from scalpers. Some scalpers make hard-earned money, while some scalpers are black-hearted and will rip you off. If you don't complain about these scalpers, you will be sorry for the scalpers who are being ripped off.

Looking at the long queue in front, Wu Yuan felt that it would not be a bad thing to try out scalping tickets.

Maybe you'll run into a black-hearted scalper?
If that's the case, wouldn't it be open before we even leave the house?

He swallowed, but before he could say anything, the scalper spoke first:
"It's not expensive, we just make some hard-earned money."

If you really only earn this hard-earned money, I won't report you, Wu Yuan thought as he followed the scalper out of the team.

As he moved, the three bodyguards followed suit one after another. Because they did not see Wu Yuan being forced and was following him voluntarily, they just scattered on the side and slowly moved closer.

"College students? Are you here to travel?" the scalper asked enthusiastically, although his Mandarin was not very standard.

Of course Wu Yuan couldn’t say that he was here for tourism, because that would be like offering to serve food.

I quickly switched to Cantonese and said:
"No, I'm going to visit my uncle's house during the New Year."

The scalper also laughed, but wasn’t he still a foreigner?

"Our Boluo Lantern Festival, especially the one in Shangjing, is world-famous!
Many Chinese from Southeast Asia come here to play.

College student, please go this way. Where do you go to buy your ticket?"

Wu Yuan immediately became alert: "I want to buy the ticket, are you out of stock?"

The yellow ox was not happy, and glared at him, saying:
“There is no ticket in the whole Boro country that we cannot buy!

We will exchange tickets with each other. Even if I don’t have it, others will definitely have it. Don’t worry.

We have been doing this for so many years, why would we lie to you?"

Wu Yuan then revealed his destination:

"I'm going to Raman Road. I want to bring tickets for my uncle and aunt. I want to buy four tickets. How much are they?"

Huang Niu nodded and said:
"Two days later, our Shangjing Lantern Festival will be at its most lively, and you guys won't watch it, what a waste!
College student, you are my first customer today, so I will give you 50 yuan for one ticket, 200 yuan for four tickets, how about that? "

Wu Yuan's eyes widened:
"A ticket is only 22, and you charge me 8??"

50 Boro yuan is very cheap for him, but if it is doubled, it is not cheap at all!

The scalpers were not happy:

“College students, how much time have we saved you from waiting in line?
Look! How long is the line now?

How many people come to Beijing and line up to buy tickets back home, right?

If you go back now, you will be at the end of the line again. I don’t know if you can buy a ticket even if you wait until dark!”

Wu Yuan felt that he had been cheated by this scalper, otherwise he would be in the middle of the line now!

Where do we have to start all over again?

I'll buy the ticket first, and I'll settle the bill with you later. I'll remember you!
"What if I buy four tickets? Can I get a discount?" Wu Yuan still remembered what his teacher taught him: if you buy too many things, you must remember to bargain!

Huang Niu then laughed and said:
"180, it can't be any cheaper!"

Wu Yuan had already silently drawn an X on the scalper in his heart and didn't care about it anymore.

"Where's the ticket?"

The scalper said:
"Come with me, and remember to hand over the money in one hand and the ticket in the other!"
