Chapter Thirty-Six: Sudden Visit
On this day, Zi Yang suddenly received a call from A Chong. Maybe because he didn't deal with people often, A Chong came up without greetings, and asked straight to the point, "Do you have time recently?"
Zi Yang has nothing, he just has time.
Moreover, since the last breakup, I have been wanting to talk to A Chong and solve some of my own questions.
A Chong said: "After the last time in Shaanxi was over, I came back to report to Professor Zhang. The professor was very interested after listening to Xiao Hei's experience - the funds this time were also specially approved by him."
"The professor happened to go south recently to deal with something. When the opportunity was turned, he had to pass by your city. I wanted to talk to you and take a look at Xiao Hei by the way."
Zi Yang has always admired this mysterious Professor Zhang very much. Although he met him when he was a child, he also glanced at him in a hurry. It is estimated that the professor no longer remembers him, a little brat.
He hurriedly said, "Yes, when and where will we meet?"
A Chong gave him an address and time, and then hung up the phone directly.
"Oh, don't ask how I'm doing..." When Zi Yang met such a straightforward person, she was also frustrated and held the microphone and was melancholy for a while.
The most exciting thing about this meeting was Lao Wang. I heard that Professor Zhang was going to treat them to dinner at the Dynasty Hotel, and I was so happy that I didn’t eat for two days.
At the agreed time, the two took Xiao Hei to a black car and rushed there. When they saw the grand dynasty hotel like the Great Hall of the People, Lao Wang was so excited that he almost fainted on the spot. The two battle fields held the wall and walked in.
Under the guidance of the waiter, the three of them entered a luxurious private room called "Tianyuan". In the middle, there was a carved solid wood table, and in the middle, a large glass turntable was enough for three people to lie down. On the top was a very fancy European crystal ceiling, and there was a wide sofa and shiny coffee table next to it. I think it was for guests to rest.
Lao Wang sat at the round table, loosened his belt with his hands and said, "I'm ready. I'll be fasting for 3 days. Let's see if I don't eat him!"
During this period, Zi Yang has been using instant noodles with pickles all day long, which has greatly dealt with Lao Wang.
Lao Wang looked at the magnificent suite and said, "It's such a luxury. What's the origin of Professor Zhang and their unit? The funding is so sufficient. I think A Chong had already taken us for a big meal last time. Unexpectedly, his master was even more generous! You said that this private room must have a minimum consumption? You can't get 1,200 yuan, right?"
Zi Yang flipped through the dining sign and said, "The minimum is 3,000."
When Lao Wang heard an unhealthy red glow on his cheeks, he clapped the table with his hands and shouted: "The waiter serves the food!"
Zi Yang looked at the watch and said, "You hold on for another 30 minutes, we will come early!"
Lao Wang said: "Still it lasts for 25 minutes at most, and I will eat this table one minute later!!"
Fortunately, the professor arrived in more than ten minutes and saved a table for the hotel.
Professor Zhang is in his fifties, with a medium figure and a rich body. His face is white and fat, his chin is long, his big head, and his hairline is very high. He has lost a lot of hair in front, revealing a knowledgeable big forehead. His temples and the hair behind his head are still black. He is combed very delicately and is softly attached to his head.
She wore a short-sleeved plaid shirt on her upper body, tied neatly into the waist of her pants, black suit pants on her lower body, and cheap leather shoes. She was a very ordinary person who couldn't even recognize her when walking in the crowd.
Professor Zhang came in under the guidance of the waiter and walked quietly, not as grand as he imagined. When he saw Zi Yang and others, he just nodded with a smile and shook his hands gently with everyone very politely, like a dragonfly, his palms were warm and soft, and his weight was moderate.
Everyone did it in batches, and the professor still looked at everyone with a smile. Zi Yang was a little embarrassed. Then he remembered that he should introduce several of his representatives to Professor Zhang.
This thin man is Xiao Hei, and this fat man is Lao Wang. Every time he introduces a person, Professor Zhang smiles and nods to show his head. When he talks about Xiao Hei, his eyes pause for a moment.
After everyone was introduced, Professor Zhang finally started talking, with a soft southern accent on his mouth: "I heard A Chong talk about you before, and I probably have an impression and I am more sympathetic to your experience. This time I came to see you, and I happened to pass by. The leaders of this city have some friendship with me, so I must have a banquet..."
Zi Yang and Lao Wang looked at each other and had friendship with the city leaders. What a high level!
"I don't like this kind of official social engagement. I had already refused, but they said that the hotel had been booked and the money had been paid, and it could not be refunded, so it would be a waste if I didn't come."
"I thought Ah Chong had mentioned your address, which happened to be in this city, so I asked you to come here together. I know it's not easy to be a student now, and it's rare to have a big meal."
The last few words were very down-to-earth, and they suddenly eliminated the barriers between the crowd. Lao Wang felt like a confidant and suddenly opened up the conversation, "You don't know how hard college students are now, the expenses are so high, and the canteen is so bad. The canteen masters simply don't treat us as human beings and feed them as pigs. I ate a frying mooncake with tomatoes two days ago, which made me feel disgusted."
Zi Yang glanced at him and said, "You disgusted and even ate two large plates!"
The professor is not a talkative person, but he is a good listener. In addition, his kind face makes people feel very close, just like an uncle next door, without any sense of distance.
When Lao Wang was complaining, the waiter brought the dishes and drinks like flowing water. It seemed to be prepared for more than a dozen people. Lao Wang immediately broke his voice and shook his cheeks and started to eat and drink.
In order to avoid the cold, Zi Yang ate and told Professor Zhang about his previous adventures. He knew that the professor was A Chong's master, so he invisibly regarded the professor as his own person, without any concealment in his words. He now told the professor how to meet A Chong in the hospital, how to go to the northern Shaanxi highlands, how to meet Uncle Li and his group, and all kinds of encounters in the temple.
The professor listened politely and nodded, occasionally asking a few questions in places where Zi Yang couldn't explain it. He just tasted the table full of wine and food.
At the end of his hearing, Professor Zhang asked, "How many pieces of velvet paper do you think the old man in the temple will give you?"
Zi Yang said: "Yeah, those pieces of velvet paper are old. I was afraid of damage, so I found a place to seal it up properly. I didn't move it. I would leave it to him when Xiao Hei grew up."
Seeing the professor's expression a little disappointed, Zi Yang finally politely said, "Why do the professor want to see it? I didn't bring it with me..."
——Of course it was just a saying. After the old man asked the orphan, he kept his teachings in mind and did not show it to anyone except the few people present. Even if Professor Zhang is A Chong's master, he cannot break his promise to his father-in-law.
Professor Zhang was very well-educated, and his disappointed expression flew in an instant. He smiled and said, "Forget it, since it was specially explained by the old man, you should just collect it."
"Come on, try this. I see that you have just been talking and didn't eat much... Is it enough? Do you want the waiter to add a few more dishes?" This was said to Lao Wang.
The wine and food that were equivalent to more than a dozen people on the table had been wiped out by Lao Wang and Xiao Hei. Although Xiao Hei was small, one person could also be as good as two adults. Lao Wang was even more powerful, and one person could be as good as two young Hei.
After all, Lao Wang knew how to be shameless, so he shook his hands repeatedly and said, "Don't be anxious, don't be anxious, add it after you finish eating."
Next is gossiping, Professor Zhang casually asked about the situation at Lao Wang and Zi Yang's family, but he didn't mention Xiao Hei at all.
In just one hour, everyone had enough food and drink. Lao Wang patted his stomach and burped his legs with satisfaction, and his legs were raised up. He sat on the chair like a big toad.
The professor cleared his throat and said, "I came here on the way this time, and I happened to be turning around in H City. A strange thing happened in a place in the south. I specially asked me to deal with it myself. I will leave tomorrow morning. I heard what you meant just now. I am very interested in traveling and adventure. It is not bad. It is worthy of praise for young people who have an adventurous spirit."
After a pause, he said, "If you have time, you can accompany me to experience the ups and downs this time. I guess I will be back in a few days at most."
Zi Yang said, "It is certain that we have gained knowledge. It is our honor to be a genius. It is definitely more than what we learned in school, and we have more time, but..." As he said that, he looked at Lao Wang, and felt embarrassed to speak up the following words.
"We are poor, can we report the round-trip ticket?" Lao Wang was very direct!
"Hahaha," the professor laughed heartily, "The young man is straightforward, I like it. We also attach great importance to this action. The other party's unit's special plane, special car, and the other party's arrangements for food and accommodation."
When Lao Wang heard this, he was overjoyed and had the opportunity to go out for a trip. School will start in a few days, so this guy doesn't feel at ease with the make-up exams of five courses.
Zi Yang was particularly happy. If the expenses in the past few days could be saved, it would be a great relief to his economy. Lao Wang and Xiao Hei were really capable of making a meal. They had already eaten half of his host.
This time the professor came here and prepared a gift for Xiao Hei - a household registration book. The information on it was clear and serious - the professor with great power actually got him a set of formal identity documents.
Lao Wang was shocked when he saw it, "It's the same as it is!"
The professor smiled and said, "It's true. After hearing A Chong's introduction to Xiao Hei's situation, I also know that it is not easy for you two college students to bring a child with inconvenient communication. So I specially asked someone to go to Xiao Hei's hometown to get a set of documents. Because his situation is special, the official did not have his information before. The information on it was filled out roughly according to A Chong's description - this is also considered to be a flexibly handled business."
Although the professor underestimated it, Zi Yang also knew how difficult this twist was, and he added another respect to Professor Zhang, who had great powers.
However, after reading the name on the ID card, he was a little amused and crying, Huang Xiaohei...
When I went back that night, I simply sorted out some personal things, just to prepare my ID card, bring two pieces of changing lingerie, etc.
In the early morning of the next day, everyone set off before dawn. According to the information given by the professor, they came to a military airport in H City. After the guards read their documents, they sent a car to take them to a special plane. It seemed that the professor had already made arrangements.
Lao Wang kept twitching his mouth all the way, "What is this professor's identity? It's so amazing. Look, the special cars, special planes, and even the guards looked at us strangely..."
Before dawn, the two of them saw a small business plane on the tarmac, and the professor on the plane was already waiting for everyone.
In addition to them, there were two students from the professor, a young student with thick eyebrows and big eyes in his twenties, wearing a pair of black-framed glasses and wearing a rare Zhongshan suit among young people. He seemed not interested in living people, but he had a special feeling about cups, jars, tables, chairs, etc., and studied them over and over again.
The other one is a thin girl in her twenties. Her long hair is covered with her face and her face is not clear. She looks confused. After getting on the plane, she sits blankly outside the window.
The professor did not recommend it to everyone, but simply introduced that these are my two students and A Chong’s friends.
The man in glasses nodded to the air, and the woman with disheveled hair had no expression.
Zi Yang was not vague either. Lao Wang’s nostrils were facing the sky, Xiao Hei looked around in a daze, and neither side paid attention to each other.
Chapter completed!
