Chapter 935: Feelings of the First Day in Shanghai Stock Exchange

Han Li had searched for relevant information about the Xijiao Park mentioned by Hao Hongmin on the Internet in his previous life. Why did he search for it specifically? Although he was an unemployed person after graduation, he had a strong desire to work in a big city. Shanghai was one of the top cities in the country at that time, so he paid more attention to it.

This was originally a "golf" course built by foreigners, as well as places for horseback riding, barbecue, singing and dancing, covering an area of ​​278,000 square meters at that time.

The renovation began in 1953 and took 8 months to complete the greening and lighting, and built a five-curve corridor and an octagonal corridor, a double-eaved air building, a hexagonal pavilion, etc., with a total area of ​​281,000 square meters.

It was opened to the public in May 1954. Due to the large number of visitors, most of the facilities and lawns were damaged, and the park was forced to close for repairs. After more than a month, the park was opened and the number of tickets was limited to 40,000 per day.

In June, Xijiao Park began to expand the zoo project. The total area after the expansion reached 1.3333 million square meters. At that time, there were more than 20 kinds of animals here.

In May 1972, the Asian elephant "Banna" came here. From that day on, the locals in Shanghai liked to call this place "Baixiang" West Suburb Park.

In the following days, the West Suburb Park built Swan Lake, Lion and Tiger Mountain, Panda Ridge and Baihua Hall, and the types of animal exhibitions continued to expand. The animal exhibition area expanded to the whole park, becoming a famous tourist attraction in Shanghai.

At this time, for Shanghai people, going to Baixiang West Suburb Park to take a photo with "Banna" became the most boastful thing. After the photo came out, they could show it to their neighbors and colleagues for a whole week.

(On January 1, 1980, West Suburb Park was officially renamed Shanghai Zoo.)

Han Li knew all this information, and Hao Hongmin's current appearance was also very telling.

It has been a long time since I tasted the second peak. It would be a lie to say that I am not greedy, but Han Li looked at his watch. It was already past 2 pm. From where they were, the West Suburb Park was almost closed, so he could only temporarily suppress the idea of ​​climbing the peak.

"It's a bit late today, and we won't have much fun there. Why don't we walk around first and tell my aunt what she likes, so I don't have to worry when I visit her tomorrow."

Hao Hongmin also realized after Han Li said this that if they went to Xijiao Park at this time, they might not be able to come back. After restraining her excitement, she said.

"No, you don't need to bring anything to my mother's place, as long as you go there."

"No, you have to bring something she likes when you visit her for the first time."

"Really no."

The two kept a certain distance and walked forward while chatting.

Walking as driving, whispering when there is no one around, and when there are people around, Hao Hongmin turned into a tour guide and explained the surrounding situation.

From east to west, Hao Hongmin took Han Li to visit Kangping Road in Shanghai.

There are French plane trees on both sides of the road, and most of the exotic villas behind the trees are there, and there are special personnel standing guard in many places.

Hao Hongmin whispered to Han Li about various small stories on this street, from the Republic of China to the present.

The two of them walked west along Kangping Road and came to Jiaotong University at the end.

At this time, Jiaotong University looked not as good as Yanda University, but the students here were also in a hurry and focused on studying.

After passing Jiaotong University, they came to a small park. Han Li did not see the name of the park.

Although this park is not big, it has everything, including rockery, lakes, waterfalls, and trees. Maybe because of the weather and date, there are almost no people here.

Seeing that this is the case here, Han Li immediately used his mental power to observe a circle. After finding that there was no problem, he secretly released a peregrine falcon with the help of the tree trunk to warn and took Hao Hongmin to turn a corner.

The branches swayed, the thrush cried.

After a long time, Han Li took Hao Hongmin, who had a ruddy face, spring water in her eyes, and trembling legs, to a bench and sat down at a certain distance. Hao Hongmin waited for her breathing to be even and said in a delicate voice.

"You are more powerful than before. If I had known this, I shouldn't have followed you in."

"Can you blame me for this? It's because you have been busy studying and not exercising during this period. But the climate and soil in Shanghai are really good. Your skin is better than before."

"Bah, I really don't know how Yun Yingying usually gets here. If I had known this, I would have called Yang Xiuying over."

When Han Li was communicating with Yang Xiuying during this period, he knew that her family had recently urged her to go on a blind date. She had two purposes for saying this to a former "comrade-in-arms".

First, to make the other party stay, but Han Li was about to marry Yun Yingying. How could he not choose her over the sisters? And he didn't plan to cause himself unnecessary trouble before 1985.

Second, Yang Xiuying wanted to leave a little, but she was still a little undecided, so Han Li took the opportunity to distance herself from the lines.

Now when Han Li heard Hao Hongmin talking about Yang Xiuying, he pretended to be unhappy and said.

"Why ask her to do that? She was just an extra when we were together. You are the one I care about most."

"But."

That was enough. Han Li would seem too ruthless if he said it clearly, so he interrupted what Hao Hongmin was going to say next and changed the subject.

"Let's talk about what will happen when we meet our aunt tomorrow."

When it came to business, Hao Hongmin immediately forgot about the topic of Yang Xiuying, and the two of them secretly held hands on the bench and chatted until dark.

For dinner, under the guidance of Hao Hongmin, we went to a small restaurant.

Here they ordered a large wonton stuffed with shepherd's purse and meat, and authentic scallion pancakes.

The big wontons are not only big in size and filled with fillings, but also have alkaline water and duck egg paste added to the wonton skins, making them extra chewy and chewy.

The scallion pancakes are not like those made by Hao Hongmin in Shanghe Village. Although they are all made of lard, the ones bought by the restaurant are professional and baked in a furnace transformed from a large barrel, and they taste particularly delicious.

What? Differences in taste between North and South?

This is true, but not much, because in these difficult years, this difference is not worth mentioning at all.

After Han Li had dinner with Hao Hongmin, he sent her to the entrance of an alley in Chang* and watched her disappear before turning and leaving.

After walking for so long today, Han Li discovered that the Shanghai Stock Exchange is better than the Forty-Nine City in one aspect, that is, there are more agency stores and public telephones, which are much more convenient than the Forty-Nine City.

Next, Han Li found a hotel nearby to stay in. He still chose a room near the street based on his face. He climbed out the window in the middle of the night.

When Hao Hongmin returned home today, she told her mother-in-law about Han Li's arrival tomorrow. This made Hao Jingshi very happy, and she forgot all about Xiangjiang and Hao Jianghe.

When Hao Jing took her daughter with her and started to tidy up their small and simple residence overnight, she kept asking Han Li what he liked to eat. She planned to queue up to buy it early tomorrow morning.

Hao Hongmin was completely troubled by her mother's enthusiasm, because she only said that Han Li was coming and did not mention the relationship between the two. Why was her mother so enthusiastic? This was even more intense than when she came back from the Northeast. enthusiasm.
