With Xiao Hongqin's words, Xiao Bing finally got a vacation, and after discussing it with each other, they decided to travel to Japan. They naturally took the plane, which flew through the clouds, and several hours later, landed at Narita Airport in Japan.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please disembark safely, have a pleasant journey!" The Japanese flight attendant said in a soft voice, still looking very pretty.
At this time, for many people, the heat is so intense that it's just avoided. As soon as possible, from the hall, they hastily got on the car, where there was a cool air conditioner to escape the heat.
But for Xiang Xin and Xiao Bing, hand in hand, with just a smile, they walked out of the airport.
The two of them didn't say anything, they just walked slowly.
A faint light halo floated on Fang Xin's body, pure and peaceful, making Xiao Bing's heart feel relieved. She also keenly felt that the energy between heaven and earth around him seemed to become particularly active, although not big, but a thread of it surrounded him, occasionally when Fang Xin made some movements, small ripples were produced, forming an insulating layer.
Xiao Bing felt his warmth and strength, indeed, Mother said it was right, this man, originally just a hidden treasure in the stone, now revealed its brilliance, one day, will become a He Shi Bi.
This is not a man who can be tied down.
At this thought, Xiao Bing felt a sense of melancholy and conflict, wanting to break free from all constraints, just like this young man, flying freely like two small birds, rising and falling at will, singing in harmony. Dreams can come true, as long as you think about it, you can at least strive for it, even if it's only for a short time.
"Axin, where do you want to go and play?"
"Let's go to Fuji River first!" Fang Xin asked.
"Is Ashin here in Japan for the first time?"
"Yes, so I always want to take a look at the millennium ancient capital Kyoto, after all, it is the core of Japan, and there is also Mount Fuji. If I have time, I would like to soak in some hot springs with Bingbing."
"Actually, I've only been here twice too. Last time was with my mom for a meeting and we didn't do anything fun, so I'm kind of like you!" Xiao Bing said.
"Actually, apart from these few points, think of where to go and just go there. Want to stay where, then stay there, want to play where, then play there. After all, we are traveling for fun, not the other way around, let the scenery come to us. As long as you enjoy yourself, even if it's just a little bit of scenery, that's enough."
"That's also true, but in that case, it would be better to charter a helicopter directly, which would be much faster."
After checking the information, I knew that there were helicopters for rent near the airport, and taxis were everywhere. Once on the car, I said the address, and the two of us leaned against each other in silence. I picked up a travel brochure from the airport and flipped through it casually, occasionally commenting on a few sentences.
Arrived at the heliport, showed the Imperial ID card, and quickly got approved. Ten minutes later, boarded the helicopter, which flew straight to the Fuji River mouth. It seemed like just a brief chat, but already arrived near Mount Fuji.
From the helicopter's space, you can see Japan's first mountain, Mount Fuji, which is 3,776 meters high. It is still a symbol of Japan in this world.
The helicopter didn't stay for long and landed at a small airport.
Out of the airport. Already arrived at the Fuji Mountain plain.
As soon as I left the airport, there were trees everywhere, with varying heights and depths, forming a continuous stretch that seemed to go on forever, extending all the way to the distant slopes of Mount Fuji.
"These are all cherry and maple trees, of course it's impossible to have such a scale, the Kingdom of Japan, since three hundred years ago, rebelled against the Empire, was defeated and punished, the Emperor stationed in mainland Japan, territorial waters were cut off, only thirty miles from the mainland remained, the King of Japan almost became a decoration, economy and politics were controlled, until recently, some of the kingdom's original rights have been restored."
"Japan Kingdom, limited by the lack of resources and technology, had to vigorously develop tourism. For three hundred years, with painstaking efforts, Japan's islands almost became a flower island. This sea of cherry blossoms and maple leaves is proof of that. Unfortunately, we are not here during the time when the cherry blossoms bloom in March or April, nor are we here in November when the maple leaves change color. In March and April, the cherry blossoms no longer bloom one tree at a time, but rather by city and county. They start blooming in March and then continuously bloom and wither until May in Hokkaido."
"Sakura is said to have over 300 varieties, with the most common being Yamazakura, Yoshino cherry, and Yaezakura. The earliest blooming one in spring equinox is Higan Zakura, while Kikuzakura has petals of over 300 pieces... And if it's November, it's the best season for autumn leaves, when the sun rises from the south side of Mt. Fuji, without backlight, shining on the mountains and fields full of maple trees, like a sea of fire." Xiao Bing seemed to be very fond of it, speaking with relish.
Fang Xin felt a sense of dizziness, in this world, Japan never had the opportunity to pose a major threat to the empire, so the empire viewed it with a faint condescension and a hint of appreciation, but without deep-seated historical hatred.
For Japan, with an inexplicable feeling, perhaps in this world, there is only Fang Xin alone, how can he not feel a sense of nothingness?
History should not be forgotten, but this world does not have this history.
"What is Japan's current population?" Fang Xin suddenly thought of this question and asked.
"Not paying much attention, probably around 70 million or so, what's wrong?" Xiao Bing came back to look at him and said, feeling that Fang Xin's mood was a bit strange.
"What is Japan famous for producing?"
"What's the output? Japan is resource-poor, but excels in electronics and precision processing, which is somewhat characteristic. As for other things, it's just tourism and resource-free industries like film, animation, and video games, which are quite good. The empire imports a large batch every year."
Fang Xin sneered, in fact, on this planet, Japan's development path has already been revealed. With limited resources, it can only develop secondary industries that do not consume a lot of resources, so the animation, comic, and film industries have developed rapidly. If China were to regain its status as the Celestial Empire, then Japan would also be elevated to its current position in the world.
It's not decided by anyone, but by the natural geographical location and resource situation, just like a person's talent and fate, it's really hard to break through.
From a strict perspective, Japan is actually not qualified to confront the mainland, unless it can seize the opportunity to swallow the elephant and occupy the mainland, it will have the chance to fly directly into the sky. As long as the mainland empire grasps itself, rectifies its internal affairs, and enriches its national strength, there is no need for any war, Japan will naturally become a second-rate or third-rate country. - Regarding Japan as a great enemy is a kind of sadness in itself, when did it come to this, even such a small Japan had to be treated so seriously?
The grand China, once had a period of time, actually reached such an extent, isn't it laughable and also pitiful?
"Let's find a place to rest!" Xiao Bing said, seeing that he was in a bad mood: "After resting, we can go and take another look, it won't be too late."
"It's alright." Fang Xin saw Xiao Bing had misunderstood and said so himself.
Turning a corner, I saw a courtyard-style shop, and inside was a Japanese woman who came forward on her knees. The woman was wearing traditional Japanese kimono, about thirty years old, with a bit of charm, soft voice, making people feel comfortable listening to her.
"She said, welcome two guests, would you like to stay in the store?" Xiao Bing translated.
"Yes, let's get it done, we'll stay for three days first." Unexpectedly, Xiao Bing could also speak Japanese, Fang Xin looked at her and continued speaking in the language of Huaxia.
"It turned out to be a guest from the Imperial Territory, thank you for your patronage. Would you like to go soak in the hot springs first?" The shopkeeper immediately spoke in fluent Chinese, got up, and took their cards to swipe and register their information. When it was Xiao Bing's turn, she exclaimed and bowed deeply: "It turns out that Miss is an Imperial noble, please forgive me for not serving you well."
Registration accommodation, will display basic information, Fang Xin is fine, but Xiao Bing's, there is a special note.
Xiao Bing said: "It's okay, no need to be so polite. Take us to the hot spring, although it's summer now, but a cold hot spring is still quite good!"
The owner stood up and led the way in. Fang Xin looked carefully and saw that this hot spring inn, although not large in area, was very elegant and clean. The small garden was integrated as a whole, with a clear and quiet layout, water and stone as decorations, and winding corridors and fake mountains separating it.
The accommodation is a small building with only two floors, compact and delicate, as if a butterfly flapping its wings, very elegant.
Not far from the small building, there is a winding stream, which is actually a hot spring. The artificial hill and screen divide it into more than ten small hot springs with different temperatures, extremely exquisite.
"The Empire itself has abolished the practice of kneeling, yet Japan still retains some of its old customs." Xiao Bing seemed pleased, saying this in a low voice as she walked ahead.
Fang Xin was calm and composed, even if he detested it in his heart, he had to admit some facts.
The empire is vast and receives all the rivers, everything it does is extremely majestic, it is the appearance of a king, not something that other countries can match. However, Japan is a small country with limited land and scarce resources, even food is not abundant, so they focus on refinement and attention to detail, striving to show the world with one move, one stone reveals a hundred mountains, in terms of smallness, it has a wonderful subtlety.
That's why it's called the Island of Flower Sea, no wonder it attracts a large number of tourists. In a small booklet, it says that the empire has 60 million tourists every year, and one-quarter of Japan's income comes from this, which shows that in this world, Japan is still a relatively developed second-tier country, not coincidentally.
