Hurry to Nanchang
Text/Yu Shitao
The more time is pressed, the faster time passes. Unconsciously, we had stayed in front of the "August 1st Nanchang Uprising Memorial Tower" for more than an hour. Many people are still watching, discussing, taking pictures, and taking pictures with great interest, which has the meaning of lingering.
Because we still had to take the train to the return journey that night, the tour guide Miss Liu Fen reminded us to seize the time and go shopping as soon as possible to the nearby "Red Tourism Supermarket". After a week out, you can't go back empty-handed, right?
Under the guidance of Liu Fen, we braved the scorching sun to a supermarket near Bayi Road on the south side of the square. As soon as you step into the door of the supermarket, the cool air of the air conditioner comes to your face, which makes people feel very comfortable. Everyone walked into the cool room from the "stove" just now, and they were all happy and happy.
Before coming to the supermarket to shop, some of us talked about it, and if we bought less, the tour guide lady would not be happy. Because most of their income is earned on tourists' shopping commissions.
Of course, I didn't care what the tour guide lady thought, I was just paying close attention to what I thought I should buy. "Red Tour", you should always buy something that is related to "Red", "Red Army", "Old District" and so on, so that it is more meaningful.
The supermarket is lined up with items, shelves are full of dazzling items, and the variety of items is dizzying. Waiters rushed to introduce us to various items: there were Red Army Fruit, Red Army Cake, Red Army Cake, Red Army Grain, Red Army Dish, Red Rice Soup, Red Rice Pumpkin Porridge... Of course, there are also many Jiangxi native specialties: bamboo shoots in Jinggangshan, bamboo shoots, smoked bamboo shoots, tea tree mushrooms... Stone chicken (a kind of frog hidden in the grotto), stone ears, stone fish, cloud tea... Nanchang's fish, rice noodles, bean drums, "imperial bird" sauce duck.... There were so many that I didn't even know what to buy.
In fact, when I was traveling in Lushan, Jinggangshan and other places a few days ago, I had quietly purchased red tourist souvenirs - forty Chairman Mao medallions. One is a glittering bronze medallion, and the other is a fiery red plexiglass medallion. There are twenty medallions of these two materials each, although the price is not expensive, but the shape is beautiful, the craftsmanship is fine, I love it very much. I secretly decided that when I returned, I would each issue a chairman Mao portrait seal to the comrades of the unit.
In the supermarket, I deliberately rubbed it a little longer because it was too hot outside. I just bought a few foods with the "red" logo and nothing else. A total of more than 100 yuan was spent. It's not that I'm reluctant to spend money, it's that I stubbornly believe that shopping must reflect the "red tour.".
When we came out of the supermarket, everyone was happy. Everyone had a large red duffel bag in their hands, and the youngest child, He, had a large and heavy cardboard box. The tour guide Lady Liu Fen was the happiest at this time, and her face smiled like a flower. Because this alone will add a lot to the "fly" (silver) on her body.
……
At six o'clock the next night, we got off the train at Jinzhou South Station. The pick-up bus sent by the bureau leader had already arrived, and the two comrades in charge of picking up the station came to the platform to pick us up. Everyone shook hands, hugged, greeted each other, and said hello, as if they had been apart for a long time. Looking at us in a big bag and a small wrapped mess, the driver Xiao Wang said, there are too many things! Chief Cai said humorously that our trip has achieved a double harvest of "material civilization and spiritual civilization."
When our car drove out of the Fuxin South Exit of the Fujin Expressway, Chief Cai dialed Director Li's phone with a serious look: "Report To Li Bureau, I am Cai Guojun." Our red tour of twelve comrades, which lasted seven days, successfully completed the visit and study task, and have now returned safely to Fuxin. Please instruct. "I didn't hear a word of what Director Li said on the phone. I saw Chief Cai solemnly say, "Yes, I understand!" Thank you Director! ”
Hanging up the phone, Chief Cai immediately conveyed the contents of Director Li's phone to everyone: First, convey my greetings to everyone, comrades have a hard journey! Second, tomorrow is Sunday, everyone rests normally, and the next Monday goes to work normally. Third, each person should write a "red journey" experience article and publish it on the public security network. Fourth, pay attention to safety, and be sure to send every comrade to the doorstep.
Director Cai's voice just fell, and the carriage was full of cheers: Thank you for the director's concern! We are back! We're home!
