Where the last few days are left alone in the ancient city. These days are cloudy or even raining, just like last year, when, as not seen the sun all day long. Although for me photography is a major inconvenience, but I particularly like the atmosphere, looking at a rain-washed smooth slate Street, Chengzhaoyusan the people, as if we must do in order to show the ancient city of the old America, but also particularly well caused by the kind of nostalgic feelings.
That day, braving the rain came Hongqiao ox hair, the walks Duojin one of the bookstore, he saw many of the Phoenix book stalls on the shelf of books, my love of the person who the book is not in step ago. Read several books have not put it down, had to ask a bookstore owner, it was a young man in his early twenties. He introduced me to a familiar way: This best-selling last year, and that two are the latest out of the year; that this is only an introductory, that this is the story from the Phoenix combined together ... ...
Get too confusing.
Finally, he pointed to a "Small Town Story - Border Town Phoenix" told me:
"Buy this, and I guarantee that you will not regret it!" From his eyes, I see sincerity.
"I believe in you!"
... ...
After a few days, nothing better, I will come to this bookstore sit, read, chat. From his mouth, that he's not a local, but Zhuzhou, because in high school came, in particular, like here, and then put down roots here, but many attractions are the Phoenix that he and his friends have developed out of -- So bookstore is called a pathfinder for others.
"Sometimes I do not know if tourism development is a good thing or a bad thing!" One day, he told me, "In the past several developed by his simple Miao Village are all good, now go to too many people, would become a good utilitarian, everywhere have to make money, earn money and then set up the so-called ancillary facilities but not the original taste. I really do not know should not develop tourist spots, and even feel as if the fault of their own, like the. "
"You do not develop there are other people develop, the result is the same. How it changes, you can not decide, which can not be your fault. The whole of China are the same, development and retention, how can not escape the laws of the market. Business Delivery is always difficult with the traditional uniform. "
"Oh ... ..."
In fact, I also think that Phoenix is changing, more up the street was approached by looking for customers, and very annoying annoying; Old Town shops and inns are more and more commercialization of the more concentrated flavor; visitors, such as the crucian carp, even in the off-season also I do not know the so-called Tour with a loudspeaker swimming; food less and less authentic, but more and more "refined" ... ... I am also afraid to come when I will be so weakened it a good impression.
