Cainiao was a warm receptionist at a transit location on our road trip. Listening to us talk about the troubles on the road during the tea tasting, my heart longed for it, and I had the desire to join the parachute regiment. There are actually many friends in life who have this kind of thinking, but not many people who really have the courage to make up their minds to take this step, especially those who are retreating from the battlefield. Don't look at the endless flow of vehicles on the self-driving road in Douyin, it is a collection of the real lovers and brave attempters of a great China, so he said this, "I just smile slightly, absolutely do not smoke."
By chance, I later met him in Lhasa. He saw that there were few people in our car (last time he said that the grass carp left the group and returned early, and the car was handed over to us for consignment), and offered to follow us for two days. Temporary hanging orders, parachute corps roster naturally does not have his number, but the story still has to say a paragraph, the same ship transition is also five hundred years to repair.
Early that morning, we went to the Jokhang Temple, gathered outside the scenic gate, and walked into The Street of Barkhor. As he walked, he looked back and saw him gone. Could it be that you are still lost, aren't you? Hi, the phone is connected to find the past, you say where he is, guess, guess again. He was in a hot spot with the owner of the shop who had just opened for business in the first jewelry store, and the glass counter was filled with beads of dzi, turquoise, wax, and rosary beads that he was selecting, and he also asked the shop owner to open the safe and take out the best. Look at that rack, buying is for sure, but it is a question of whether to buy ten pieces or twenty pieces. I knew that I would not be able to leave for a while and a half, so I sat down and watched them compare and compare themselves there, asking for a price. He took a three-eyed dzi and a pair of two-eyed dzi and asked me, "Is this true?" I whispered, "How much is the asking price," and he said how much, and I said, "Do you really want to buy?" He said, "Yes." I looked at him squarely, winked at him again, and said very slowly, "You have to make up your mind, this is still the first one." He was overwhelmed by the desire to buy, and did not understand the meaning of my blinking and questioning. Pulling a bunch of things together, he pulled a bank card out of his wallet and said, "Buy them all, calculate how much money it is." With a "zi" sound, Kari first spit out a 1, and then jumped out of the four figures, more than ten thousand yuan will not follow his surname.
Walking out of the shop, he pointed to the pendant around his neck and asked me again: "This dzi should be real, right?" That look longed to hear my affirmative reply. I said, "If you think about it with your brain, it's all this era, can you buy a real three-eyed dzi at this price?" As soon as he heard this, he said busily, "Then why don't you persuade me not to buy it?" I stopped and stared at him: "It's common to go out and visit the store together." There is an unwritten rule you must remember: you can not buy it, but do not blatantly prevent others from buying it and blocking other people's financial paths. Besides, people are opening businesses. He said, "The first time I came, I didn't understand!" "The first time I come, I'm bound to pay some IQ tax." From this moment on, you keep your eyes wide open, don't move your mind, your hands move. ”
As soon as the words stopped, he folded into a shop again. This shop is somewhat different from the previous store products, but it can be seen that his expression is no different from that in the first store. I thought it was broken, and his money jumped in the purse again. Estimating that it would take a lot of time, I said, "You have to pick with your heart, and I will go to the front 'Gusuna Bookstore' to turn over the books." "With heart, I said with gritted teeth. I came out of the bookstore and called him again, and he said he was still in the store. I didn't ask, he was in the first few stores. Just tell him that I'll go to Maggie Amiga and wait for him.
It was almost 12 o'clock when he found Maggie Ami based on real-time sharing. Well, a few bags in the left hand, a few bags in the right hand. I didn't ask, I don't have to ask, just from the color of the bag, it should be purchased from more than three stores. I quipped to him, "Wholesale?" He took a sip of the tea and said, "After sitting down in the morning, my feet were soft." I glanced at his plastic bag and asked him, "Is there a majority of female employees in the unit?" He smiled a little embarrassed: "Hey hey, first time, bring a little, bring a little." ”
Relieved, he asked me, "What does Maggie Ami mean?" "I can't believe it, he usually loves to hum and sing, and every three or five years he still posts some new songs in the circle of friends that he learns to sing." I asked him, "Have you heard Tan Jing's "On the Top of That East Mountain?"? He said "no." The words just fell, and suddenly the song popped out loud from his mobile phone, startling me and the people in the tea house, and I was busy booing him.
It was almost time before the time we had booked an online visit to the Potala Palace, and I dragged him out. When he got to the street, there was no restraint, he put the song on the air, and when he heard the sentence "If you hadn't seen each other, how could you have suffered from this", he suddenly realized that he patted his head: "Oh, it's this song." ”
Before the Potala Palace, check the online appointment. After seeing his and then looking at mine, I said mine was on his phone, and he said I didn't help you book it. This is good, I obviously told him to make an appointment, I made an appointment with me. He also promised a earnest "good" word. Think about it, this kind of hands-on and foot-and-kick thing, will not always have to be the leader of the regiment to come in person? I can't get in without an appointment. I patted him on the shoulder: "The elephant is waiting for you at the ticket office, I'll send you to the gate." "Everybody commented, what teammate did I meet?" Three pounds of copper, I didn't ask you, what "pig teammates" nonsense.
That night, he called a few of us into his room, and all the things we bought were spread out on the bed so that we could distinguish between true and false. Big mouth three pounds of copper, lung shadow to take a piece to say a fake, the old good man elephant said that only a few Nepalese shawls are real. He sat on the edge of the bed, his heart like he had fallen into an ice cave, very depressed, and chafed that he should not have bought it. I know that because shopping affects the mood of play, I often encountered, so I relieved his heart: "Believe them, they are not experts, can they be distinguished at a glance?" Don't dwell on the true and false, like, is right. He raised an eyebrow.
The next day from Yang zhuo yongcuo to Shigatse. Only to go up to the observation deck at the top of Yangzhuo Yongcuo Lake, the people who came all went to punch the clock, he poured well, stopped in front of the stalls of the tourists, and began to pick and choose again. It took half a day to get back in the car and buy a few more things. Descending to the bottom of Yang zhuo Yongcuo Lake, he drank milk tea while pulling and pulling things on the platform. At the end, looking at the rosary beads hanging on people's bodies, I ask how much? As soon as he said more than 10,000, he was about to buy it, and people said, "The ancestors have passed down, they can't sell." He rubbed his breath softly, and then ran to the car, brought the bags of things he bought yesterday, and took out ten thousand cash to exchange with others. The man glanced at the thing and shook his head vigorously. We went to the side, and at the end he picked a few pieces. At lunch he asked us if it was true or not, and we told him that there was a little girl looking straight at you just now, and you didn't see her clear eyes? He regretted it again. I said you will buy it as soon as you see it, and you will regret it when you buy it.
When he arrived at Qia Yangcuo to take pictures, he and three pounds of copper each bought a honey wax, two hundred yuan of three pounds of copper, and his five hundred. As soon as I got in the car, I compared the scents to each other, smelled them, and said with joy that what I bought was real. After a period of driving, the rookie picked it up and compared it again, feeling that his beeswax fragrance was if there was none, and then he began to doubt it in his heart, saying to himself: "My possibility is fake, it seems that there is no fragrance, three pounds of copper yours is real." He handed it to me again, and I smelled nothing, and said to him, "Your rose fragrance, the mint fragrance of three pounds of copper." His blackened face gradually turned white.
In the evening, when a Tibetan friend in Shigatse received him, he looked at the dzi hanging on the chest of the person, and he wanted to come over and take a closer look, swept it up, and returned it to the people. Then he took down the dzi he bought this time and hung on his body, and he also swept it up, saying, "Yours is lighter than mine, and I didn't buy a stone, right?" The Tibetan friend said, "It's a stone." Better than you buying a plastic one, right? Three pounds of copper, lung shadow smiled evilly at him.
When I woke up overnight, the rookie was going to fly away. His box was too small, so he bought a bag at my suggestion, which was specially loaded with miscellaneous miscellaneous things purchased during his trip to Tibet. After sending him away, three pounds of copper said to me: "Commander, where did the rookie go to buy it, and finally brought a large bag, is it necessary to change the name to buy and buy?" "I think that's a good idea. If these two names are used as titles, Maimaiti is one level lower than rookie, which is in line with his current identity.
