Qu Lihua said: "In a foreign country, it is really proud to see things with Chinese elements!"

"Yes, as Chinese, we hope that the motherland will prosper, and when we see things with Chinese elements, we are very happy and have a sense of intimacy!" Zhou Sen said.

"Head Xia, there's a bookstore here, let's go in and have a look!" Qu Lihua said, pointing to a bookstore on the street.

Head Xia Yuxiang took everyone in, this bookstore is very clean, there are many types of books, on both sides of the coffee-colored bookshelves, readers come in to buy books, stand by the bookshelf and flip through.

Xia Yuxiang walked around the bookshelf and found that there were all kinds of books, and he was pleasantly surprised to see the Russian translation of "Analects" and "The Art of War".

Commander Xia Yuxiang asked Yefim: "You Russians also read the Chinese "Analects" and "The Art of War"?"

"Yes, we Russians are very interested in ancient Chinese philosophy, the philosophies of Confucius, Mencius, Zhuangzi, and Laozi, and feel that the wisdom of the ancients, although it is very old, but the philosophy contained in it is still very valuable now, people can still get inspiration from the book, and it has been very popular in the local area, I have also bought a few books of Confucius, I like it very much, and it has been placed on the bookshelf at my home, and when I have time, I will take it out and flip through it, read it, and it is still very interesting. ”

"Yes, Yefim, you are a good young man, you are very interested in Chinese history and culture, and you have studied the doctrines of Chinese sages, which will inspire you in your future life. ”

"Thank you Captain Xia, I think young people just need to learn more, I am still young, there is still a long road to go in life, I am very grateful that I have the opportunity to study in China, the Chinese teachers who taught me are very good to me, when I come back from studying abroad, they go to the airport to see me off, and they also sent me a lot of Chinese books, which I have always kept. ”

Xia Yuxiang said: "There are many customers reading books in this bookstore, and I found that you Russians still love to learn!"

"Yes, Russia has always attached great importance to literature, there are a lot of famous writers. ”

Gorky said: "I pounce on a book like a hungry man pounces on bread." ”

This famous saying, the Russian people's thirst and love for books, aptly expressed, like this bookstore, every day there will be Russian reading to read books, although now there is the Internet, all kinds of new things on the web page are more attractive to young people, but reading has a stable core readership, although there is the Internet, the Internet economy, the mobile Internet economy has a great impact on the young, young people will be interesting web pages, games, Video and other entertainment attract attention, but Russians have always loved to read and have a strong desire to learn, and we will never replace reading with other forms of entertainment. ”

Ye Feimu talked about it, it could be seen that he was full of confidence and loved learning, and the head of Xia Yuxiang nodded.

"Yes, it's good to work hard, love to learn, and love to read!"

"Let's take a look at the benefits of the Belt and Road Initiative to the Russians, I heard that the fruit market in Xinnell is very popular with Russians, Yefim will take us to see it!"

"Well, Neunar is the center of St. Petersburg, where in addition to places of interest, there are all kinds of goods for sale, and the Neunar fruit market is full of all kinds of melons and fruits, including apples, grapefruits, pineapples, bananas, cherries, avocados, pears, dragon fruits, etc. ”

Qu Lihua exclaimed, "Wow, it's so lively here, so many people, so many fruits, are they all shipped from China?"

Yefim said: "Yes, in this season in Russia there are no leaves on the trees, let alone fruits, the weather in Russia is relatively cold, which is not conducive to the growth of fruits, there are many varieties of fruits in China, and the price is cheap, which is very popular with Russians, and everyone likes to come here to buy Chinese fruits." ”

Qu Lihua and Meng Wenjie were also very happy, and came to several stalls to see that the apples produced in China were big and red, the bananas were also very fresh, and the cherries were very beautiful.

"Boss, how do you sell cherries? How do you sell bananas?"

Su Xiaoyu helped translate in Russian.

"A kilogram of fine cherries is equivalent to less than 25 yuan, and a kilogram of bananas is only 10 yuan. ”

Yefim said: "These are the credit of the 'Belt and Road', China's fruits are of good quality, fresh, cheap, and variety, which is very popular, enriching the table of Russians, and most of the fruit stall operators are from Central Asia and other countries, with different accents, can speak simple Russian, mixed with some English, and the business is very good, so they are willing to come here to run fruit stalls." ”

"There are not only Chinese fruits, but also fruits from Central Asian countries, produced in countries along the route, Cambodian bananas, Chinese pears, garlic, Russian green onions and garlic are very expensive, Chinese garlic is much cheaper, so China's garlic and green onions are very popular here, these foreign fruits and vegetables fill the gap of melons and fruits in Russia this season, if there is no 'Belt and Road' countries these agricultural products complementary, the Russian people's dinner table will be very monotonous. ”

"Of course, mutual benefit is bilateral, Russia also exports agricultural products to China, such as corn, soybeans, in recent years Sino-Russian agricultural trade continues to maintain a rapid growth trend, for Russia, China is a big export market, as the world's largest importer of agricultural products China or become the main export destination of Russian agricultural products. ”

Head Xia Yuxiang smiled, "Yes, this is good news for Russian farmers, they can increase their income, business is getting better and better, the higher their enthusiasm, Sino-Russian soybean cooperation is mainly concentrated in the Far East, China welcomes more soybean producing areas in Russia to actively expand cooperation with China, including exporting soybeans to China's coastal provinces with strong soybean processing capacity, on the basis of market principles, fully tap the potential of soybean cooperation between the two sides, continue to promote the cooperation of the whole industry chain, and achieve complementary advantages. Mutual benefit and win-win results, to create a long-term and stable cooperation pattern. ”
