Volume 8 Final Chapter Chapter 1053 Who is Adam
Sayuri Hagiwara took a fruit from Nan Yi, peeled it, took out the flesh inside, and handed it to Nan Yi, "We eat the flesh, and the peel can be used to stir-fry tomatoes."
Nan Yi took it, asked Tianxian for a dagger, and shaved off the skin that had been bitten and crawled by insects. He handed the cleaned skin to Hagiwara Sayuri. She took it and immediately put a bite in her mouth, then shouted with an exaggerated expression: "Delicious."
Nan Yi smiled, peeled one for himself, put it in his mouth and took a bite. The mixed taste of milk, durian and jelly immediately hit his taste buds.
Seeing Nan Yi eating, Sayuri Hagiwara asked expectantly, "Nagao-kun, is it delicious?"
"The taste is too complicated, I don't like it ."
Nan Yi told the truth.
"What a pity! I really like its taste." Sayuri Hagiwara said regretfully.
"If you like, you can eat more." Nan Yi pointed in a direction and said, "I see a field of chestnuts over there. Is there an owner?"
"No, anyone can pick it."
"Lily, the candied chestnuts you made are delicious. Let's go pick some chestnuts and make some."
"Hayi."
The two walked for a while and came to a slope with chestnut trees. The ground was covered with sparsely distributed yellow leaves. Between the leaves lay cracked thorn balls with chestnuts already escaped from them.
"Give me the hat."
Nan Yi asked Hagiwara Sayuri for a straw hat, then patrolled the ground for a while and found a branch that suited his needs. He took the branch to a thorn ball, stepped on the thorn ball with the sole of his shoe to make the crack bigger, and then inserted the branch into the ball and picked up the chestnuts, which rolled to the ground.
Seeing this, Sayuri Hagiwara put away the chestnuts in her hand, asked Nan Yi for her hat back, bent down, picked up the chestnuts on the ground and put them in her straw hat.
The two of them worked together, one carrying and the other picking up, and soon they had picked up more than thirty chestnuts, and the straw hats were full.
Nan Yi took the straw hat from Sayuri Hagiwara, picked up a chestnut, and said with a smile: "Lily, ten years ago, more than half of the chestnuts on the Japanese market were supplied by me. Unfortunately, I was unable to do so after only two or three years. You Japanese have learned from this and now go to China to place orders yourself."
“Is it the taste of the mountain?”
"Yes."
"What a pity! I used to like buying Yama no Mi's abalone fruit very much. Each fruit was very plump. I bought it for four years in a row. But in the fifth year, it changed. There were always a few rotten fruits in a portion. I never bought it again."
"Really? I'm not sure. I sold the Yama no Mi Company a long time ago."
Nan Yi did not go into the topic of the taste of the mountain. He asked Hagiwara Sayuri to take him for a walk around the entire mountain. They picked a lot of edibles on the way. When their bodies were full, the two of them walked down the mountain. Along the way, all they saw was freedom and tranquility.
The farmlands that come into view are patchworks of small pieces, with few horizontal and vertical lines, and very few shaped like the Chinese character "田". Most of them are irregular patterns, such as triangles, trapezoids, and fans, and are uneven. There are gaps between the fields, and the colors of each field are slightly different, ranging from green to yellow, in a staggered manner.
The day of rice harvest is approaching, and gusts of wind blow, and the rice ears scattered in the fields sway in the wind.
Across the fields, the roofs of houses are arranged irregularly, but their orientation is roughly the same. The appearance and size vary greatly, full of irregular beauty.
After crossing a small stream, Nan Yi and his companion entered the village. Almost all the houses they saw were two- or three-story single-family buildings with their own entrances and courtyards. Many of the houses looked very old, probably hundreds of years old. Although old, the houses were well arranged and looked very tidy.
The houses are all in typical Japanese style, with ordinary designs and no highlights. I didn't see any houses with a strong sense of design. Almost every household has flowers planted in the yard and at the front door, and they are carefully trimmed.
Compared to a few years ago, Nan Yi felt that the appearance of Japan's rural areas had not changed much, whether it was the planning, green plants, or the small-displacement trucks visible on the roadside, everything remained the same.
Compared with domestic rural areas, apart from the different architectural styles of the two countries, they are actually very similar. The per capita arable land is not much, there are not many mechanized operations, there are spring planting and autumn harvest, and there is no big harvest. The only difference is the inconspicuous annual income.
After crossing the village and returning to Sayuri Farm, Nan Yi and Hagiwara Sayuri went into the kitchen together.
Sayuri Hagiwara first blanched the chestnuts in water, then took over the wild vegetables that Nan Yi had washed, chopped them up, stirred them into the batter, and blanched them in a pan of oil. After a while, she scooped them out with a spatula and placed them on a plate to cool.
After ten minutes or so, the chestnuts were out of the pot. Nan Yi held the chestnuts in his hand, and Hagiwara Sayuri held the tempura. The two came to Ruyuan outside the house, sat on the ground, peeled the chestnuts with a knife, and ate the tempura.
After the chestnuts were peeled, Sayuri Hagiwara took them to the kitchen and found a clay pot to soak them. She also added a handful of wood ash into the pot. The chestnuts needed to be soaked overnight to remove the astringency, so they could not be eaten today.
After finishing their chores, the two continued to sit on the edge of the bed, quietly watching the sunset.
…
If Nan Yi is the sun at three or four o'clock in the afternoon, then Nan Ruoyin is the sun at eight or nine o'clock in the morning. She is at the most suitable age for playing. There are so many things to play, but she chooses to play with her career, and she is very good at it.
So much so that both Fortune and Forbes magazines have noticed her, and Rachel Nan's name and photo have appeared on the inside pages of the magazines. I believe it is only a matter of time before she appears on the cover.
Everything is easy to handle among one's own people. Mingyuan Capital has already acquired 20% of South's shares and has made an appointment to meet with Netscape's founder Marc Andreessen.
When Andreessen received the call from Nan Ruoyin, he was both surprised and delighted. South browser and the company behind it, Nantianmen, are simply outliers in the Internet industry. This company is unknown and hardly communicates with its peers, but its products are very famous.
The South browser had a unique design concept that was ahead of its time, and it achieved a high market share effortlessly, making it Netscape's number one enemy.
SSP, SouthScript, CSS, SouthSQL, Sublime, three languages, a relational database management system, and a code editor are simply one of the cornerstones of the WEB. Moreover, if you open the comment document of any one of them, you can see a paragraph in it - the design idea comes from Adam.
Who is Adam?
Adam is an active promoter of the Internet, and countless Internet-related organizations have received donations from him; Adam is an advocate of the Html standard, and the father of Html, Tim Berners-Lee, publicly admitted that he had received donations from Adam, and that many tag rules were suggested or provided by Adam.
Adam can definitely be called the godfather of Html.
The foundation of WEB is Html, and the five "S"s are the cornerstone. The role of Netscape Navigator is to explain the content constructed by the five "S". How could Andreessen, who came from a technical background, not be ecstatic about the active participation of South Browser?
When Andreessen told this to Jim Clark, another soul figure of Netscape and a partner and investor of Netscape (he provided the money and Andreessen provided the technology), Clark was also ecstatic.
Jim Clark is a very famous person. He is not only a scientist in the computer field, but also a master in the graphics field and the founder of Silicon Valley Graphics. He is also a famous investor in the computer field. It was he who encouraged Andreessen to establish Netscape.
Clark was so impatient that he was in New York and was tempted to go find South without waiting for the agreed time. Compared with Andreessen who focused more on the technical aspect, Clark paid more attention to Netscape's stock price. If the news of Netscape's acquisition of South got out, the stock price would most likely soar to more than $300.
Moreover, it was Rachel South of Celebrity Capital who represented South Browser. The other party was most likely not after cash. Having Celebrity Capital as a shareholder was good news for Netscape, as long as the other party did not ask for an exorbitant amount of money.
