Chapter 653 Way Out

In a corner of the playground, on the tall iron frame, a large ship kept moving the pendulum. From a distance, it seemed that the ship was really churning in the stormy waves, causing the "crews" (passengers) to shout for the sky.

On the ground, a large number of tourists gathered on both sides of the amusement facility called "Piracy Ship". They looked up at the swaying hull, looked at the terrified expressions of passengers on the ship, and listened to the passengers' shouts and yelling, which was extremely useful.

Tourists who spend money to play experience the excitement and dizziness brought by the "pirate ship". Tourists who do not spend money and are simply watching the fun, just look at the embarrassing appearance of these tourists, just treat it as a pastime.

Among the crowd, several young people looked at the swinging "pirate ship" with a serious expression. They exchanged glances with each other, turned around and left.

Inside the ground next to it is a tall cylindrical iron frame. This large iron frame, which looks like Optimus Prime, is surrounded by a large iron ring. The outer edge of the large iron ring is evenly distributed with seats. The seat back is facing inward and outward, and there are people on it.

The passengers were sitting in their seats, with "safety pressure bars" pressed on their shoulders and chests, and "seat belts" on their bodies, but their legs were hanging in the air, and they were all barefoot.

Why barefoot? To prevent shoes from flying out and falling to the ground and hurting people.

On the ground, the steam engine roared and squirted out thick smoke. The large iron ring slowly rose on the large iron frame and suddenly fell down, as if it was out of control. The passengers in the seat were so scared that they shouted in a flash, which also made the onlookers on the ground exclaim.

The big iron ring stopped when it fell halfway and then slowly rose. Just when everyone thought the big iron ring was about to rise to the top of the iron frame, the big iron ring suddenly fell, which scared the passengers and the audience again and exclaimed.

The young people came to the fence and looked at the amusement facility called "Block Jumping Machine", and the big iron ring "torn" the passengers, each eager to try.

After talking to each other for a few words, a few young people walked towards the entrance.

There is a passage made of railings at the entrance. Tourists who bought tickets have already lined up. It looks like there are about 60 people, and the big iron ring can only sit twenty-four people at a time. Later generations have to wait at least two rounds.

However, there are two small doors at the entrance, with a lot of people at the right small door, and only five or six people queuing up at the left small door.

Several young people went straight into the passage on the right, showed the bracelets worn on their wrists to the staff who maintained order, and went straight to the entrance door to wait.

The audience next to them saw someone "stripping the line" again, and some people began to talk, but the people in the queue were calm, as if they knew something inside.

Seeing this, the staff held a paper loudspeaker and shouted, "If you don't want to queue up, you can buy special bracelets! With special bracelets, each amusement facility can walk from the fast lane after buying a ticket, and there is no need to queue up."

After shouting, many viewers who had just come to watch the "bouncer" suddenly realized: So that's it.

There are many rules for newly opened amusement parks. First of all, everyone can come in, but it costs a penny to get tickets. Children who have not exceeded the limit can be free of charge, but they must be accompanied by adults.

People entering the amusement park can spend money to experience various amusement facilities, experience various thrilling and different fun. Of course, they can also choose not to spend money. Just look at how exciting those amusement facilities are, and see how embarrassing those passengers who spend money to experience the amusement facilities are.

Tourists who buy tickets must queue up to enter the venue regardless of their status. However, if they buy special bracelets (one thousand documents each) and wear them on their hands, they can queue up to enter the venue with fewer people (no projects).

Li Yuanji was very satisfied with this regulation because it reflected the difference between high and low. Although the difference between high and low is measured by money, he has money, and the same is true for his friends.

Next to him, Feng Zhili, who looked up at the "bouncer's machine", with an excited expression. He said a few words to the people around him, and then said to Li Yuanji: "Silang, how about it? How many more times will you sit in a while?"

"No problem." Li Yuanji looked at the rising iron ring slowly, and was also full of expectations. After a while, he said: "I have fun today, I'll invite you tonight..."

Before he finished speaking, Liang Xinglin, who was standing beside him, interrupted: "No, no, you are a distinguished guest, we are the owner, I will treat you tonight!"

"How can that be? You have been treating guests for more than half a month. I have to invite you back once."

"Don't be polite Silang. When we brothers go to Chang'an in the future, it's not too late for you to treat you again."

Several young people were talking, the "building jumper" slowly stopped running, and the large iron ring slowly fell down and stopped on the ground.

With the help of the staff, the passengers who were still unsatisfied with the help of the staff, put on their shoes, and left the exit one after another.

Li Yuanji and his companions entered the venue under the guidance of the staff, and then "sitted", looking at the audience full of fences outside the surrounding fences, and looking up at the tall iron frame, he was full of expectations.

Jumping off the building machine? I want to see what you can do to me!

Li Yuanji lives in Chang'an, and his father, Li Yuan, was the Minister of Tang, who was the Pingzhang Zhengshi of the Senxia Provincial Censorate. Because he often had to attend meetings of the Political Affairs Hall, he basically did not leave Beijing easily. However, Li Yuanji appeared in Xiyang, Huangzhou, thousands of miles away. Of course, there was a reason.

The Duke of Tang’s Mansion had industries to be "listed" on the Huangzhou Stock Exchange, which was of great importance. Therefore, Duke of Tang’s wife Dou came to Huangzhou in person to deal with related matters, so the youngest son Li Yuanji also followed Xiyang to gain a lot of experience.

Back then, his parents lived in Xiyang, so they had a villa in Xiyang City. The supporting living facilities were constantly updated, so they lived no worse than the Duke of Tang in Chang'an, so Li Yuanji lived a happy life in Xiyang.

My mother had old friendships with many foreign wives in Xiyang, so Li Yuanji quickly came into contact with many very special social circles. In these social circles, the members were basically the second and third generations of civil and military officials in Jinghu, Lianghuai, and Lingnan.

The Duke of Tang had a lot of friendship with Jinghu, Shannan, so Li Yuanji quickly integrated into these circles and had a lot of fun with Feng Zhili, a wealthy family from the Lingnan family, and Liang Xinglin, who was from the Huangzhou Hulin Army.

They all have a common characteristic, that is, their son who is less than 20 years old and is ranked behind in the family. He is in a state of being neither up nor down, his way out is vague and he is in a dilemma.

My father's title is naturally inherited by the elder brother (the elder brother). The main body of the family is naturally taken over by the elder brother.

Other brothers either went to military academy, joined the army after graduation, or studied in school, and prepared for the imperial examination. Those who ranked low in their families could not study, and did not want to go to military academy to follow the same path as their brothers, so they could only come out to gain knowledge.

Relying on the connections of our parents, we build our own social circle, support ourselves as much as possible, and create a new world of our own.

Or, run your own industry so that you can grow branches and leaves in the future.

This situation is now very common among all officials and merchant families. The eldest son inherits the family business (main industry), and the second sons of the legitimate and illegitimate children either study and take the imperial examination, or enter military academies, and join the army to compete for titles.

The children who are not dependent on literature and martial arts can only take advantage of their parents to find ways to find a way out, either go to the two capitals (Chang'an, Luoyang) to make contacts with powerful people, or go to Jinyang, Yecheng, Xiyang, Guangling, Fanyu and other metropolises.

That is, find ways to do business and buy industries.

If you can't do it, you deserve to have no status at home and live a life after the separation.

Li Yuanji is in this situation. He doesn't like literary talent, so he doesn't plan to take the imperial examination; he likes martial arts and is skilled in archery and horses, but his second brother Li Shimin and third brother Li Xuanba have all studied in military academy one after another, so Li Yuanji doesn't want to take this path.

Besides, he felt that in the future, he would be the main focus of firearms, and personal courage would be useless, so it would be better to find a way to make more money.

No titles can be granted without military merit. This is the system of the court, but Li Yuanji feels that the world is different now. There is no title, but there is an industry and good management, and you can still be the best.

With money, there are all kinds of high-end enjoyment, such as beauties, famous horses, mansions, farms, delicacies, and everything.

Now the court does not care about business, so Li Yuanji feels that even if he does business, he will not be looked down upon. Besides, he has brothers to help him, so who dares to look down on him in the future?

Li Yuanji is now learning to manage the industry with his mother. After coming to Huangzhou, he found that the playboys here are different from the playboys in the capital. They have extremely well-informed news. Whether it is trade, industry and commerce, transportation, futures, and stock trading, they all have very accurate news channels.

Everyone has big trees from their parents who can shelter from the wind and rain, but they all rely on their own hard work, work hard to manage their connections and industries, and find a way out for their future. Therefore, it is most appropriate to help each other and take what they need.

For example, Feng Zhili, whose family is a wealthy family in Lingnan, mainly engaged in maritime trade, so Feng Zhili is very well-informed in maritime trade and has a deep understanding of Lingnan products.

Liang Xinglin's family is in Xiyang, Huangzhou. He is a child of the Hulin Army. He is not good at literature and does not like martial arts. He is good at trading. Now he has a lot of experience in futures trading. He takes risks himself and borrows money to speculate on futures. After struggling, he actually makes tens of thousands of yuan.

There are several others, either from Guangnan West Road, with a large sugarcane plantation at home, or from Huainan, where they are engaged in Huainan shipping.

Li Yuanji was born into a powerful family in Chang'an and had connections in the capital. Although most of them were friends with alcohol and meat, he was finally a member of the powerful children in Chang'an. He also had a coal mine and an industry in his family, and was not short of money. Therefore, he was also a good "partner" for others.

Several young people met in Huangzhou and had similar interests, so they began to try to cooperate, not relying on their father and brother, but on their own and friends to work hard and make a way out.

Li Yuanji felt that he could make a name for himself without relying on his father and brother. If the time comes and the industry is well managed, he would have the opportunity to be elected as a political affairs officer and participate in state affairs in the future.

If the connections are well managed, there are even some opportunities to be selected as Pingzhang Zhengshi, and like his father, he would be on par with the magistrates at the Political Affairs Hall meeting.

Li Yuanji was full of confidence and a voice came from his ears: "Silang, what are you thinking? You're ready to start."

He came to his senses and looked in the sound, but saw Feng Zhili, who was sitting next door, reminding him.

Li Yuanji smiled, looked around, and then his heart tightened: Why is it empty?

When I looked down again, I saw that I was already away from the ground and my legs were hanging like this.

Just as he was distracted, the "building jumper" had risen to the highest point, and next...

Before Li Yuanji could be afraid, he felt his seat suddenly fall, and he himself fell down. At that moment, it seemed as if someone was holding his heart and then pulled it hard.

A huge sense of fear filled the whole body. Li Yuanji, who was extremely frightened, couldn't help but open his mouth and shouted:
Chapter completed!
