Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 142 Aoshan and Aoshan

What Watson is most worried about is that the other party misunderstands his identity and sends him to the police station, which is really too embarrassing for a professor.

Seeing that the other party understood the purpose of his trip, he thought it best to seize the opportunity to find out the address on the list, otherwise, if he missed this opportunity, where would he go to ask someone who could speak English?Watson immediately asked: "I wonder if you know where the addresses above are?"

Mr. Liu didn't understand much else, he only understood the English word "address". He figured out the meaning of the word and figured out Watson's intention.

In order to answer Watson's question, Teacher Liu could only bite the bullet and look at the list.Fortunately, the address information on the list is all spelled out in pinyin, which is the so-called transliteration, which is relatively simple.

Teacher Liu whispered pinyin while watching, and quickly figured out where the first three addresses were.When he spelled out the last address, he froze suddenly.

The province and city information on the fourth address has been wetted with water, and it is so blurred that it cannot be recognized at all. Only a small part of the pinyin is relatively clear.Teacher Liu was stunned for a moment and couldn't help muttering: "Does Aoshan refer to Aoshan Town? No wonder foreign guests come all the way to our Qingjiang, feeling that they want to go to Aoshan Town."

Section Chief Xu who was standing on the side couldn't help asking: "Mr. Liu, where is the concave mountain? Why have I never heard that there is such a place in Qingjiang?"

"Aushan is in the direction of Jiashan County - now it has been renamed as Yuyang County. There are big mountains over there, and the place is very remote. I didn't know there was such a place before. Coincidentally, I taught in the county last year. At that time, there was a student with very good grades, she happened to be from Aoshan Town, so I knew this place."

Section Chief Xu snorted: "I see, what are the foreign guests going to investigate in such a remote place?"

Mr. Liu is also not clear about this question. He has shown that he understands it just now, and now it is obviously inappropriate to say that he is not clear.In order to avoid revealing the truth, Teacher Liu simply pretended not to hear, and explained to Watson: "I know these addresses, especially the last one, which is near us."

In fact, Aoshan Town is tens of kilometers away from the hostel, which is not close at all, but compared with the previous places, it is indeed very close.The first few places are all in other provinces, the closest one is thousands of kilometers away, and the farthest one is more than 3000 kilometers away.

Watson didn't expect that he had hit the right place by mistake.He couldn't help being overjoyed, thanked Mr. Liu repeatedly, and then asked about the specific location of Aoshan Town.

Teacher Liu took a lot of effort to point out the direction, and also specifically explained that there are more mountains in Aoshan Town, and the road is not so easy to walk, so he suggested Watson to go there by boat.

Watson thanked him again, and then mentioned that he needed something to eat and a place to rest.

Since the English words involved are not very uncommon, Mr. Liu quickly understood Watson's meaning and helped to translate.

Section Chief Xu naturally had nothing to do, and immediately ordered the staff to cook for Watson.After eating and drinking, he arranged the room with the best conditions for Watson.

Watson first took a comfortable bath, and then he lay down on the bed completely relaxed.

Before going to bed, he was still secretly rejoicing: Fortunately, I came to the right place, otherwise it would be really difficult to continue wandering around.

The language barrier is the biggest obstacle. Watson secretly made up his mind that he must take time to learn Chinese after returning to China, so that he will not have to worry about anything when he comes to China in the future.

"Well, I will go to Aoshan tomorrow to investigate and see if that student is really as good as the application says."

Watson didn't know that he was in the wrong place. In fact, the aoshan on the list did not refer to the concave mountain, but the Aoshan mountain more than 2000 kilometers away.We can’t blame Mr. Liu for this. The main reason is that the transliteration does not include diacritics. No matter who does the translation, this kind of problem is prone to occur.

After Watson fell asleep, Section Chief Xu originally wanted to report the reception of foreign guests to his superiors.But now that he was off work, he made several phone calls one after another, but no one answered the leader's side.

Section Chief Xu had no choice but to give up: "Let's report tomorrow morning, anyway, the foreign guests won't run away, and a delay of one night is not a big deal."

What Section Chief Xu didn't know was that due to Watson's unauthorized actions, the relevant departments had long been in trouble.A professor from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology disappeared suddenly after coming to China, is that okay?

The relevant departments issued an emergency notice within an hour after Watson slipped away, asking each unit to help find someone.

In their view, Watson's goal is too obvious. As long as foreigners come to China these days, no matter where they go, it is impossible not to attract attention. As long as a notice is issued, they will be found soon. Professor Watson.

As a result, three days and two nights passed, not to mention finding anyone, not even a single person who saw Watson, so the situation became more and more serious.Some people even wondered if Watson had encountered an accident. If so, the consequences would be terrible.

To put it bluntly, once Watson really encounters an accident, the relevant departments will definitely be severely punished, and a lot of people will be unlucky.

There is no way, the name of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology is too loud, and even the identity of Watson has become very dazzling. If something happens to such a foreign guest, it is impossible to suppress the news.

No one thought that Watson left the capital by picking up the train. The reason is very simple: as a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, how could he do such absurd and dangerous things?This obviously doesn't match his identity.

At the beginning, the assisted investigation notice was only issued in the capital. As time went by, the scope of the notice gradually expanded to the area adjacent to the capital. As for Qingjiang, which is more than 2000 kilometers away from the capital, no notice was received at all. The news about Watson has already been fed back.

Early the next morning, Section Chief Xu got up early and rushed to the leadership office to report the situation.The reason why he is so active is mainly because he feels that he has done a big event and will definitely be commended by his superiors, which will be very helpful for his future development.

Perhaps because he was too eager to earn performance, Section Chief Xu did not tell the staff of the guest house that he was optimistic about Watson.He was still on his way to the leadership office when Watson woke up.

After washing up, Watson finished his breakfast at the guest house, and then he took out the renminbi that he exchanged with US dollars at the time of entry and handed it to the waiter.There was no need for a translator this time, the waiter immediately understood what Watson meant.
