The county seat is more than 400 miles away from the provincial capital, but fortunately there is a railway built by the Germans.

Wang Dali bought a train ticket, and according to Anne's instructions, he hired two dart masters to be bodyguards in the dart bureau, and escorted Anne and An's mother all the way to the provincial capital.

It's not okay to be cautious, these years warlords are fighting and bandits are rampant, Anne and Ann's mother are two women outside, looking at their clothes and temperament like the daughters of rich families, proper fat sheep.

In addition, Anne also carried 20,000 yuan in cash, such a large sum of money, if no one protected her, An's mother probably couldn't sit still.

Bang dang dang ~~

The wheels of the train crushed the tracks heavily, and after a puff of black smoke, it slowly drove out of the county seat.

The old train was slow, and the journey of more than 400 miles took most of the day.

When I went out early in the morning and arrived at the provincial railway station, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

Anne, Ann's mother, and two dart masters, they walked into the train station with the crowd.

The railway station in the provincial city was also built by the Germans, with a typical Germanic style, an elegant and beautiful clock tower, and a baroque style building, which was also extremely spectacular and beautiful in the aftermath of the information explosion.

And for "Wang Anni" and Mother An, who have never seen the world, they are even more dumbfounded.

The bright sunlight shines through various triangular and semi-circular skylights, and light and shadow are intertwined into the most beautiful picture scroll in people's field of vision.

"Oh my God, this—this is the provincial capital?"

Ann's mother grew her mouth and looked at everything around her stupidly.

When she got off the train, she was still aggressive, and she looked like she was not afraid of the sky and the earth. When she entered the station, An's mother suddenly became timid.

Looking at this "foreign" house, An's mother didn't know which foot to step on first, and her palms were sweating.

"Yes, yes, I heard that this station was built by the Germans. ”

Anne also looked like she had never seen the world, but she was the master in the end, and she behaved better than Ann's mother.

The master and servant muttered quietly as they walked out of the station with small trembling steps.

The group cautiously walked out of the station, crossed the square, and several rickshaws surrounded them.

"Madam, are you in the car?"

"Madam, where are you going, I'll take you there. ”

"Madam, take my car!"

A few coachmen shouted.

Anne subconsciously shrank for a moment, but thinking of her identity, she straightened her waist calmly and coughed lightly, "I, I'm going to S University, you, who of you knows the road?"

"I'm going there a lot. ”

"Madam, I'll take you there, I'm familiar with that place. ”

As soon as the few people heard this, and then looked at Anne's helpless appearance, they knew that she was a countryman who had just entered the city.

Looking at the gold bracelet on her wrist, several people were even more dazzled.

Anne pretended to be going out for the first time, and she held herself up for a while, but soon she was timid, and hurried to see Ann's mother.

An's mother didn't understand either, and she was even more scared to death.

But she was older than the girl, and she boasted that she was well-informed, and endured the fear of the unknown, and pretended to be old and said: "There are four of us in total, I think your carriage is quite spacious, one car can seat two people, we need two cars." ”

"By the way, let's talk about the price first, and then you can sit on the ground and start the price when you can save it. ”

"How much does it cost to get from here to the university hall?"

Ann's mother felt that she was acting very well, like a capable person.

As everyone knows, her self-righteous appearance falls in the eyes of those rickshaw drivers who pull rickshaws on the street all day long, and she is simply a wronged person who doesn't know how to pretend to understand.

"S is very far away from here, I have to walk for half a day, I see that a few nobles are also kind people, so let's not ask for much, you can give five cents for each car." ”

"Five cents, so expensive?"

An's mother exploded when she heard it, five cents for one car, and one dollar for two cars.

In their country, you can buy a girl for three yuan.

"Oh, it's not expensive, it's not expensive, our provincial city costs a lot, I'll still give you a cheap price. If you don't believe me, go and inquire?"

The coachmen's eyes fluttered, and the first person to reply pointed to the others as he spoke.

Several others chimed in.

"Mom, Mom, five cents is five cents, let's hurry up and find the eldest young master. ”

Anne tugged at Laan's mother's sleeve and said in a low voice.

Mother Ann felt that those coachmen should be bullying and slaughtering people, but when they went out for the first time, they were unfamiliar with the place, so they could only be slaughtered.

Seeing that the business was done, several coachmen exchanged glances with each other, and then pushed out two coachmen to be responsible for pulling people.

They helped Anne and Ann's mother put away their luggage and watched the two rickshaws leave.

"Hehe, we can make money today, it's a dollar all of a sudden, there are eight of us, Chen San and Shen Er have made a contribution, each of them gets two cents, and the six of us have one cent each. ”

The rest of the people happily calculated that they had done this kind of thing more than once or twice, and they had a tacit understanding after many times.

Anne and Ann's mother huddled into a rickshaw and let the driver pull them around.

At first, they were a little uneasy, but when they saw the traffic on the wide road, and the pedestrians were wearing various clothes, they were immediately fascinated.

Some of the men wore traditional cotton robes and horse coats, some wore suits and overcoats, and some students wore tunic suits.

Most of the women wore modified cotton cheongsams, scarves, some dressed in dresses, and a few wore elaborate and traditional skirts.

Anne wants to see it but is afraid of being laughed at, and her secretive appearance makes outsiders know that she is a country woman who has never seen the world.

"Grandma, the provincial city is really lively!"

An's mother was also dumbfounded, the bustling city, the dazzling lights, and the dazzling array of goods in the roadside shop windows, she just felt that her eyes were not enough.

"yes, it's nice here. No wonder the eldest young master is reluctant to return to his hometown. Anne muttered softly.

Her voice was soft, but the coachman was near, so she heard it anyway.

The coachman shook his head secretly, tsk, another poor woman abandoned by her husband.

Although the coachman felt pitiful for Anne, he still had to earn the money he should make.

In this world, who is not pitiful?!

After going around for more than an hour, the two rickshaws stopped outside the gate of S University.

"Madam, it's here, it's a dollar. ”

The coachman stopped, picked up the towel hanging around his neck, wiped his sweat, and then reached out and asked Anne for money.

Ann's mother habitually wanted to pick out her sleeve pocket, but was stopped by Anne.

I saw Anne timidly say to the coachman, "This big brother, I'm really sorry, I, I'm in a hurry, and I didn't bring much cash." But my husband is a teacher at S University, so I'll find him and ask him to give you money. ”

"What? You, you don't have any money?"

The coachman was a little dumbfounded, this woman looked like a rich man, how could she have no money?

The other coachman was more clever and didn't believe Anne's words at all - the people of the country pay attention to the poor and the rich, how can they not even bring the minimum travel expenses when they go far away?

Anne took out a purse, pulled open the drawstring, and revealed a few coppers, "Look, I, I have these few cents left, we came to the provincial capital for the first time, I really didn't know that the rickshaws here are so expensive." Leave our county, and it's only two or three cents for a rickshaw. ”

"But don't worry, my husband is here. He is a great talent who came back from abroad, and he can speak foreign languages, and he can also write poems, and he can earn several yuan in manuscript fees by writing anything casually. ”

Anne explained, winking at Ann's mother.

An's mother finally understood what Annie meant, and with a smile, she jumped out of the rickshaw and ran towards the university gate.

"Hey, don't run, give the car money first. ”

When the driver saw that Ann's mother was about to run away, he hurriedly chased after her, while the other stayed where she was and watched Anne and the two bodyguards.

"Big brother, don't worry, I won't run. My husband is a university teacher, and his salary is more than 100 yuan a month, so how can he lose this dollar of car money. ”

Anne was embarrassed to smile at her, but when she mentioned her husband, her face was still full of pride.

Mother An had already shouted and ran into S University, "Young Master, where are you!"

The coachman behind her also kept shouting, "Hey, hey, don't run, give me the money first!"

It's just time for the afternoon school day, and many students are shuttling around campus.

An's mother and the coachman ran and shouted, which immediately attracted onlookers from students and teachers......
