v5 Chapter 946: "Ask a monthly pass" on the train

Of course, he was not fascinated by the scenery outside the window, in fact he was thinking about the problem.

After the meeting with the Politburo, his father Fan Heng gave him a chance to talk to him about some of the high-level thoughts for a while, finally letting Fan Wuyao figure out their thoughts, so he also knew This trip is of great importance. The success or failure of my own trip to Russia affects the hearts of many people.

Shen Ying was already asleep in the box. This time he came out and just happened to have an Indian passenger plane crashed. Both adults felt more worried, so instead of taking the plane, they took a train from Beijing to Moscow. If we Shift your gaze from China to the world, then such a railway line will amaze you, from Vladivostok (Vladivostok) on the Pacific coast to Chelyabinsk in the Ural Mountains. The Trans-Siberian Railway on the European continent is the main traffic artery from Siberia, Russia to the Far East.

When the international train from Jingcheng Station leaves Erenhot and enters Russia via Ulaanbaatar, the railway track extending from Mongolia merges with the Trans-Siberian Railway, and the meeting point is only half a day away from the legendary Lake Baikal It's just a journey.

From Beijing to Moscow, it only takes seven or eight hours by plane, while the train takes six days and five nights.

If you want to understand the vast territory of Russia, you must take their train, because the Russian railway is the most distinctive, especially the Trans-Siberian Railway, which is the most popular on the earth. This is a product of the Tsarist Russia period, and it is also a tourist in Europe and America. The special yearning of the reader, if you can experience it in person, it is indeed a lot of fun.

Russia is a large railway country with a total length of 140,000 kilometers. Their plains occupies most of the territory. The conditions for the development of railways can be said to be unique. The 19th-century novel "Anna, Karenina" begins with a description of the heroine Anna taking a train back to Petersburg from Moscow.

However, the distance between Russian railways is 12 centimeters wider than China's. Chinese trains can enter Russian railways slowly, but not vice versa. Europeans and Americans are all very interested in the magnificence of the longest Trans-Siberian Railway in the world. They have to take a trip in person to be happy, just like foreigners visiting the Great Wall of China.

The train departs from Jingcheng Station, passes through Zhangjiakou South, Datong, Jining South, and arrives at Erlianhot, a border checkpoint in China, where the passport will be stamped with the exit stamp. Passengers need to fill in the passenger luggage declaration form and change the rails at the same time. Because China's railroad tracks are different in width from Mongolian and Russian railroad tracks.

The rail change is carried out in the international wheel changing library. The train cars are hoisted one by one, the Chinese rails are removed, and the Russian-style rails are replaced. Passengers do not need to get off the train and feel no shock during the whole process.

Because of the connection and border inspection, the train will stop in Erlianhot for about 3,000 hours. In the evening, the train left Erenhot and entered Mongolia. It then stopped at the Mongolian border checkpoint for Mongolian entry (transit) visa inspection and customs declaration. The train arrived in Ulaanbaatar the next afternoon and again in the evening. Arrive at the border of Mongolia and conduct Mongolia's exit inspection.

Moscow time is four hours later than Beijing time. After entering Russia, the train stops at Nayushki on the border to conduct Russian entry visa inspections, fill in customs declaration forms and immigration cards. The inspections here are more detailed. At this point, the cumbersome border inspection is finally over, and the train can run on the vast land of Siberia.

Passing Lake Baikal, Irkutsk, Krasnoyarsk, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Tyumen oil fields, entering Yekaterinburg in the Cholar Mountains, passing the Ural Mountains, the train officially enters Europe. Pass through Tilmi, Kirov, and the ancient capital Vladimir, and finally enter Moscow with a population of 9 million.

This route passes through three countries, runs north and south of Mongolia, passes through at least 14 administrative units (states, republics, autonomous regions, and border regions) in Russia, passes through the Mongolian plateau, the Yablonov Mountains on the Mongolia-Russian border, and the world The deepest inland lake on Lake Baikal, the southern part of the Central Siberian Plateau, and the southern part of the Western Siberian Plain, pass through the Ural Mountains and enter the Eastern European Plain.

It takes one day for the train to leave China, and one day to pass through Mongolia. The remaining four days are all running across the vast Russian territory.

More than half of the international trains are foreign tourists. Among those young people, a considerable number of them are unhappy people. Almost all of them are wearing suits and carrying suitcases, carrying a lot of leather jackets, tourist shoes and sportswear. The nameplates are from Adidas to Nike has everything, of course, they are basically fakes.

As soon as the train leaves the country, it becomes a mobile truck, and the unhappy men on the train are all gearing up and excited. Every time they arrived, the local men rushed up, surrounded by car windows and doors, echoing up and down, and both buying and selling were booming.

Because the train entered Mongolia on October 10, the Soviet dining car was hung up and started to use rubles, so the men also traded in rubles.

Shen Ying is relatively sleepy on the train, so she and her female assistant are sleeping. Fan Wubing feels fresher about the things on the train, so she walks around to watch the excitement.

The public car is more lively. Two young couples put two bottles of Erguotou on the small table in front of the window. The price is 60 rubles and they are on sale. As a result, the men carrying big bags and small bags are mainly on the platform. So they only occasionally visited them. After two or three counter-offers of 50 rubles were not sold, they finally couldn’t hold on. They sold them to two red and black Mongolian men for 50 rubles. .

The windows of international trains are divided into two sections. The upper one is about eight centimeters wide and can be pushed out forty-five degrees. The lower one is dead. They just passed the small window above and delivered the goods with one hand.

There are four people in each private room of the international train, which is quite a domestic soft sleeper. The two young couples live in the same private room with a father-in-law. When the train starts again, everyone gathers outside to talk about the battle. The two young couples said that they were also opened, and took out the fifty dollars and shook them.

As a result, someone immediately laughed at them, saying that you were deceived. Then he took the fifty ruthenium, opened it to them, and said it was Mongolian ruthenium, and then took out another fifty rubles from his arms.

The two young couples had never seen a fifty-dollar ruble before. After comparing them, they found that the two coins are too similar, the size is the same, and the pattern design is the same on the front. On the left is a profile portrait of Lenin, and on the right is a big letter "s". Only the small print is Mongolian. The colors are basically the same, they are all gray-green, gray-green, as if the Mongolian ones are a bit grayer.

However, the two young couples are not short of money. Buying wine is just to join in the fun, so they are happily talking about their long-term knowledge, and there is nothing unhappy.

The cabins are air-conditioned and equipped with a TV. The seats are spacious. The TV shows the classic film of the former Soviet Union "The Station for Two People." Just like in a health resort, you have to stay for a few days. The temperature and hygiene in the compartment will make you feel very comfortable. Even if it is outdoors minus 40 degrees, the compartment must be above 25 degrees. You can wear JL short-sleeved shirts. .

Smoking is prohibited in all cars in Russia, but there is a special smoking place. In order to take care of the Islamic people, Russian public meals are generally beef, so they do not ask each other about their beliefs.

The doors of the carriages are electric, the toilets are very clean and automated, and the tall female conductors have a good service attitude. Some people bought smoked fish from Lake Baikal and wanted to store them in their dining car for a few hours. She also expressed her willingness to agree. But after a while, she ran back and said that she realized that this was a fee-based service, and that the fee was twice the price of smoked fish, so the person said that it's fine, it's better to just eat it.

The railway subgrade in Russia is very poor, and the running smoothness of the train is much worse than that in China, and the speed is even worse. If it is in China, it would take two and a half days for such a long distance to arrive, but they did not have the concept of increasing the speed of trains. This was the schedule of juniper trains 20 or 30 years ago.

Not long ago, trains derailed in the Far East, which was caused by the lack of maintenance of the railway subgrade. Of course, they also have objective reasons. For example, the railway line of his pavilion is too long, and there are not so many workers, so they can only use it. Moreover, most of the sensitive sleepers of the railway are made of wood, and there is less cement. It is also one of the reasons.

After waking up the next day after leaving the country, Shen Ying looked out of the car window with some excitement, expecting to see the endless rugged grassland. However, she was immediately disappointed because she did not see the vastness, wildness, and wind blowing that day. The grass is low to see the scene of cattle and sheep.

The Mongolian grassland is indeed high and far away at a glance, but there is no green grass. The grass is a thin layer of sparse and sparse land, and half of it is yellow. Obviously this summer is very dry and the land is particularly barren. Desolate, the train traveled for two or three hours without seeing a tree, a house, or a yurt, not to mention the flock of sheep floating like white clouds, the scenery was very monotonous all the way.

Before dusk the train drove into the Russian land. It is strange to say that the scenery before you suddenly changed like magic. The eyes were full of lush greenery, dense vegetation, luxuriant wormwood on both sides of the railway, and small white birch forests a few meters away. The bushes are colorful, and the sloping birch tree trunks are silvery white and the leaves are yellow and green. They are shining in the afterglow of the setting sun. The virgin forest is covered in the distance. The trees are tall and straight.

Only in one world, the north and south scenery is so different. The land on the north is fat and oily, but the land on the south is like barren land. Shen Ying couldn't help but sigh at Fan Wuyao, God is unfair, favoring one and the other.

"It can't be said that it is unfair. Bihui Mongolia's mineral resources will be crazy if you look at it now." Fan Wuyao obviously has a different view on this matter.

The scenery on the ground is good, of course it is pleasing to the eye, but there are treasures under the ground, which can be exchanged for money.

Before the night fell, the train finally drove on the shore of Lake Baikal.

Lake Baikal is the world’s largest freshwater lake in JL. It contains one-fifth of the earth’s fresh water, which is equivalent to the total storage capacity of the five Great Lakes in North America. It is also the deepest lake in the world, with an average depth of 730 meters. The deepest point is 1,620 meters.

Fan Wubing and Shen Ying were in the car overlooking Lake Baikal from the window. The vast and vast waters beyond the sight of the distance were like dreams under the approaching night. It was a pity that it was completely dark after a while, and I couldn't see anything from the black hole through the car window. It is said that the story of Su Wu shepherd who has been passed down for thousands of years happened to swallow this place, but it was called Beihai at that time.

After entering Russia, the bad guys became even more busy. It turned out that Mongolia was just a small fight, and it was a warm-up before the war. These people are basically at least two people working together. They sell goods and shout, and one of them is responsible for collecting money. It seems that the northern ones mainly sell leather jackets, while the southern ones, such as Wenzhou, mainly sell tourist shoes.

The two young couples were not idle either. They continued to sell the private wine Erguotou. Just like last time, they still put two bottles on the small table in front of the car window. They were still priced at 60 rubles for two bottles~lightnovelpub.net~ They were still upset when they first started. It was very tall and held it first, and after two or three shifts, it couldn't be stretched. In the end, it was sold for 50 rubles and sold to a middle-aged man and woman. They seemed to be a husband and wife. The man is very tall, estimated to be two meters, and lean. The small window on the train didn't bother him at all when he paid for the goods.

At the beginning, they came and turned once, and left before the price was cut down. They came again after going around the garden. They seem to be very simple and honest. At first glance, they wanted to buy, and the two couples wanted to sell too, and eventually they became a relationship.

When the train started again, everyone gathered in the carriage again to chat about humor. After chatting, the young couple took out the money they had just received and held them in their hands. It was the one who just saw through the fake rubles. The guy yelled at them, you were deceived again, and then you laughed.

The two young couples all looked at him ignorantly, so he took another fifty yuan ruble from his arms, proudly compared it with the two young couples in front of everyone, and said slowly, Your one is fifty yuan rubles that have been invalidated.

So everyone came over and took a closer look, and found that the picture of the two young couples was the same everywhere compared to his picture, but it was slightly brown in color.

The guy who debunked the scam has experience. He concluded that your two young couples look gentle, like scholars. When they turn around, they find that you two are most like rookies. Who wouldn't you be fooled?

Fan Wubing smiled when he listened, and Xintong these people were laughing and joking, but it was very interesting. It seemed that no matter what it was, it was very fun. Of course, a lot of fun was bought with money.
