The house was already shabby, and no one had lived in it since it was bought, let alone cleaned it. Zhu Gaoxu walked into the poorly lit main room and couldn't even find a place to sit. The shabby square wooden table and benches were all covered with dust.

Wang Gui fetched some water and found a gray-black cloth whose original color could not be seen clearly. He washed it in the water for a while, wrung it dry, then came up and wiped the bench. Only then did Zhu Gaoxu sit down.

Wang Gui then busied himself wiping the benches and the table, which gradually became cleaner. However, the rest of the main room was still very dirty, with footprints all over the dust on the floor.

...Somehow, Zhu Gaoxu recalled a small incident from his previous life.

When he was in high school, he secretly went to Internet cafes to play games all night many times. One time, my cousin brought his girlfriend with him. She was a cute girl with a very strict family discipline. S

    At the northernmost part of Prince Gaoyang's Mansion, there is a garden with illegal buildings. In the garden, near the gatehouse of the inner hall, there are several houses, one of which has a wine cellar.The cellar was originally stocked with wine, but now almost all of it has been moved away, and the few remaining jars are thrown in the corner. It is dimly lit here, and the light from the hole above can only illuminate a small area.Xu Miaojin's hands and feet were tied, and she sat on a chair covered with soft fur. The silk ball in her mouth had been taken out, and she could speak now, but she didn't say a word, just silently watching Zhu Gaoxu busying himself there.On the brick wall next to it, there was a diagram with some lines drawn on it. It seemed that Zhu Gaoxu was rebuilding according to this diagram. Not only had he designed it in advance, he also put it on the drawing. It can be said that he was very deliberate."This kind of cellar is

    The ropes around Xu Miaojin's body had been untied, and she was pacing back and forth in this dark place, moving her numb hands and feet. Before King Gaoyang left, he bought a few more things, including candles, charcoal stoves, flints, and several wooden barrels with lids filled with well water.There is a thick curtain in the corner opposite the bed curtain, which should be the "changing" place.The newly dug vents are relatively small and located high. The only accessible place was the entrance to the wine cellar, and the stairs had been removed. Xu Miaojin looked up and observed that it was inaccessible without a ladder, and there were iron bars covering it, making it impossible to climb out.The entrance above is also where things inside and outside are exchanged through a rope. Xu Miaojin's future expenses and waste items to be sent out can only be exchanged through this place.In such a situation, it was difficult for her to escape. Besides, she

    Spring in the south is a land of fresh green, with new grass growing, buds sprouting from treetops, and buds about to bloom.Dayuanba Village is dozens of miles away from the nearest Yugan County of Raozhou Prefecture. The water network here is dense, and there are countless winding rivers and streams. Canoes supported by bamboo poles and black-sailed boats paddling on the river can be seen everywhere. In the paddy fields, farmers wearing straw hats and oxen have already started a year's farming.A woman with disheveled gray hair and dark skin came back carrying a large back of pigweed. She walked through a path between a clump of bamboo forest, an earthen dam and several thatched huts, which was the Du family's house.The door opened in the small earth dam is the back door, and entering is the kitchen. A young girl quickly came up to catch the woman's back.The woman immediately began to chatter, "Non was still a little girl at that time, and my fathe

    The room was dark, and only the moonlight shining in from a small window allowed people to identify the location of the bed. This wooden bed had been there for who knows how many years. It had been there before Du Qianrui was sold out. Now whenever someone moved on it, it would make a "creaking" sound, as if it could fall apart at any time, but it hadn't fallen apart yet.In front of that small window, Du Qianrui learned needlework when she was a child. I remember it very clearly, but I felt it was a little small. Even in the daytime, the window was not bright enough, which hurt my eyes. Now when I look at it again, it seems even smaller... maybe I have seen bigger windows outside.In the daytime, you can see that the exposed brown-yellow earth wall has many cracks. Many years ago, Du Qianrui was worried that the wall would collapse, but it is still fine now.Everything was so familiar, after all, it was the place she had seen since she was born. Even though

    This ancient county town is surrounded by the Xin River from east to west, so Zhu Gaoxu and his companions took the water route up the Xin River. There are also a large number of residents living outside the city walls, and a group of low and dilapidated buildings are built along the river. From a distance, it does not look like a city, but like an ancient town.The flames of the "Jingnan Campaign" had not yet reached Jiangxi, and without the noise of cars and factories, the city seemed very peaceful.Zhu Gaoxu went south and did not take the canal route in the east. Although the route in the east was shorter, the government troops were heavily involved and the atmosphere was tense; the route through Henan and Huguang was more peaceful and unobstructed. After crossing the Yangtze River, they went straight to the Jiangxi Provincial Administration.If you don't go east along the Yangtze River, you can avoid many important obstacles. At the same time, Zhu Gaoxu

    It was just daybreak and fog covered the bamboo forest. The foggy and dark path was scary to look at.Farmers go to bed early and get up early, so this schedule can at least save lamp oil. At this time, Du's mother has almost finished making breakfast, and Du Qianrui is sweeping the earthen dam with a broom, which is her regular routine every morning.Her eyes were empty and lifeless, and she had long since given up hope. The wounds on her fingers had scabbed over, and her sweeping movements were becoming more and more skillful. People always get used to everything around them slowly.She hasn't thought about music, chess and painting for an unknown amount of time, and now she only has pig grass, brooms, and stoves in her mind. Maybe in two years, I can completely forget all those flashy things from the past. Maybe in another two years, I can get used to the kind of hut in the pigsty. The room is full of stench, the floor is muddy, and there is no place to s

    It was a bright spring day with a clear blue sky, fresh air and clean river water. The forests on a riverside peninsula were lush green, and sometimes birds flew over the water and into the woods, creating a peaceful atmosphere between heaven and earth.Three men carried a box up the hillside. Veda said, "This is it." They then put the box under a tree and opened the wooden board. The fat man inside immediately made a "woooo... woooo..." sound, and then gasped rapidly, "huffing and puffing", as if he was tired from lying in the box and being carried up."Mr. Zheng, please watch over the people first. Wang Bin and I will go over there to dig the hole. We will take turns to rest in a while." Wei Da said again.Zheng He nodded and said, "Let's follow Brother Wei's arrangements."So the two men carried the hoes and went behind some trees and started digging."Brother Wei, there is something I have been wanting to tell you, but I only mentioned it tod

    The black-sailed boat was quietly docked by the river. The cool river water hit the side of the boat from time to time, making a "ding-dong" sound, and occasionally the chirping of birds could be heard around."Wow!" Wang Bin shouted on the deck. When Zhu Gaoxu turned around, he saw a crucian carp hanging on the fishing rod being lifted out of the water.The firewood in the clay stove on the boat was burning vigorously, and white steam was coming out of the pot. Wang Bin grabbed the crucian carp, knocked it against the side of the boat twice, and then took out a knife to start cutting open the fish's belly.Du Qianrui, wearing an old dress and carrying a bamboo basket, also came to the boat. Zhu Gaoxu stretched out his hand to her. Du Qianrui's eyes wandered, but she still put her hand in Zhu Gaoxu's hand. Zhu Gaoxu then pulled her up."What kind of leaves are they? They're not poisonous?" Wang Bin turned his head and glanced at the bamboo basket.

    The sky gradually darkened and the lights came on. Gao Xu held Miao Jin's hand and followed the crowd into the concert hall.People were all dressed up, especially women, who were all dressed up. Some wore traditional clothes such as ruqun or aoqun, while others were dressed in modern fashion. Each figure seemed to be wandering between the classical and the modern.Among them there are many foreigners, probably all of whom came to Taicang to attend international conferences.In terms of fun, people might prefer to watch a movie rather than enjoy such pure music. However, there were still many listeners tonight, and the auditorium gradually filled up.Perhaps some of them value the rarity of concerts and do not attend them often, while others simply value their style.Gao Xu's main happiness comes from Miao Jin's company. Imagine if he came alone or with someone unrelated, his feelings would be much worse. He is willing to be with Miao Jin and exp

    There were long commercials playing on TV, but no one changed the channel.Miao Jin was doing chores and preparing ingredients for lunch. Gao Xu began to check his various instruments, which were all measuring tools he had collected a while ago.There is a ray detector, which, according to the manual, can detect radiation, including ultraviolet light, laser and other electromagnetic waves. There is a torsion balance experimental device, which can measure the gravitational constant. And an air measuring instrument.There were also some uncommon small devices. In short, except for the large instruments that were difficult to carry, he tried his best to buy all the instruments that could test general constants.Miao Jin would occasionally look over here curiously, but before she asked, she might have guessed what Gao Xu was going to do.Gao Xu would tell her clearly as long as she asked. Because when he was going to look for the cave in Huangshan, h

    Gao Xu usually doesn't like watching TV. But today, when Miao Jin was watching TV in the living room, he was gradually attracted by the TV program, so he stopped what he was doing and sat next to Miao Jin.There was a studio on the TV screen, with two hosts, a man and a woman, talking about the animation "Zootopia" like a crosstalk. It was neither news nor entertainment, but a show that mocked reality.Miao Jin saw Gao Xu sitting over and said, "This TV station should be more inclined to the left-wing viewpoint."Gao Xu asked, "Why haven't I heard of the distinction between left and right wings?"Miao Jin said, "It is originally an imported product. That is how foreigners describe Ming Dynasty politics. There is no clear distinction between left and right in China. So we generally don't use such words. It is normal that we don't hear them normally."She glanced at Gao Xu and continued, "This classification first appeared in the parliament during

    Gao Xu's drama project has less than half the investment of the animation project, with a total investment of about 40 million yen for 15 episodes; the profit expectations are also completely incomparable to those of animated films. As Wang Siqi and most people believe, the fastest way to make money is still the movie box office.But Gao Xu has invested more energy in costume dramas.The crew built a filming site in the Western Regions. From 509 to the first half of 510, a production period of less than a year, Gao Xu flew twice to personally observe the filming site. His subordinate Sun Jing also stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, passing various information back to Taicang.A large media company in Taicang has signed an exclusive premiere agreement with Dream Incubation Studio.The terms are a bit complicated, but the key is to adopt a cooperation model with floating copyright fees.

    The glass window on the outer wall is located in the east direction, so the sunlight cannot enter the studio in the afternoon. Therefore, Gao Xu often has a slight illusion that it seems to be later than the actual time.At this moment, the phone in his coat pocket rang. Gao Xu's phone rarely received calls because he had set the Do Not Disturb function, so no calls could be received from numbers that were not saved. He took it out and saw that it was a person who he did not contact often but had saved the number a long time ago, Sun Jing.Gao Xu stood up from his desk, walked to the corner by the glass window, glanced at Wang Cheng not far away, and answered the phone.Sun Jing's voice asked, "Are you still busy with work?"Gao Xu said, "Yes, I am working on two projects at the same time, so I am a little busy. How is Mr. Sun doing recently?"Sun Jing, "Very boring. I don't have to go to work, but I've been idle for so long that I feel like I'm

    This was the second time Gao Xu and Xiao Yu had a meal together. Last time they were at the company cafeteria, and today they were at a roadside fast food restaurant.After finishing work at the agency, Gao Xu drove off the main road and found a parking space. Then he randomly found a restaurant where he could eat and walked in with Xiao Yu.It was very lively inside, with all kinds of customers, including well-dressed office workers and some homely citizens, men, women, young and old, making a big noise in the room, mixed with the loud shouts of the shop assistants passing on information. Although the air conditioner was on, the shop was open and there were many people, so it was still very hot inside.There were several dishes to choose from, all of which were simple and convenient. Gao Xu and Xiao Yu gave up on the braised pork intestines with radish, and roast duck was too greasy, so they chose roast chicken.The roasted chicken skin was cut into p

    After many twists and turns, Gao Xu finally contacted the director named Ma Xuan.Ma Xuan has an account on the Internet where he posts some career news. Gao Xu's assistant Yu Ni left messages and sent messages, but it took several days for her to get a response. Gao Xu came to the hall and looked through the information records on Yu Ni's computer."He doesn't seem very proactive." Yu Ni said.Gao Xu said , "You claim to be the assistant of the investor of "Dream Seekers", but he may not believe you. If our studio also has such a certified account, it may save some trouble."At this time, Shidai Heng walked by and greeted him, "Mr. Liu."Gao Xu nodded and said, "We are trying to contact Ma Xuan, the director you recommended."Dai Heng came over and said, "He should have received a lot of similar messages. And there is indeed some false information on the Internet. For the purpose of advertising, people may lie about their identities, which

    The people who work here, including Dai Heng who has only been here a few days, seem to have gotten used to the environment.The studio was in good condition. The morning sun shone in through the French windows, and the room was clean and tidy. In addition to the solid wood desk and bookshelf, and a full range of domestic electrical appliances (Made in China products are more expensive), there were also comfortable leather chairs.Gao Xu was in Xiao Deng's office at the moment, sitting on one of the leather chairs, holding a tablet and reading the text he had just copied from Xiao Deng's computer. Of course, he couldn't help but listen to the sound of her keyboard at the same time.He put down the tablet, picked up the cup next to him, and found it was empty. So he stood up and walked to the water dispenser, filled up half a cup of hot water, then took a tea bag and put it in the cup to soak for more than ten seconds, then took it out and put it next to him.

    The next screenwriter who came to the studio for an interview was named Dai Heng, who should be a relatively unknown person.Gao Xu looked out from the glass wall and when he saw Dai Heng, he immediately guessed that this person was probably not married yet. Dai Heng was wearing a brand new suit, a white shirt with a small cross collar, and a pair of casual leather shoes that didn't match. The most unpleasant thing about Dai Heng was his long hair, but unlike the image of Ekin Cheng, Gao Xu felt at first glance that Dai Heng was not suitable for that hairstyle. Some hairstyles look good, but they are picky about the face.But these are not problems. Now that the people have arrived, Gao Xu needs to get to know them a little bit.Gao Xu pressed the phone on the desk, "Xiao Yu, ask him to come to the office to meet.""Okay." Xiao Yu said into the phone outside, his voice coming from the desk inside.Dai Heng came in from the door with a bag on his
