Chapter 142: High-Speed Rail
A blue high-speed train is speeding on the tracks, and the surrounding scenery flashes by.
"Really, this sleep is really comfortable, although I feel that the people who have crossed back in ancient times, three wives and four concubines, and those days are free, but in the end, modern people are modern people after all, or this modern society is good, forget about ancient times."
Cheng Yiping yawned, stretched a lazy waist, sat up from the bed, looked out the window at the modern scenery that drove by, you have not lost it will not know how to cherish, from the North Pole back to this real society This is the real convenience of the real society, although people say that the real society is a steel jungle, no feelings, but it is undeniable that it does bring great convenience to people.
Otherwise, if you really stay in this underground cave in the Arctic and live a life of sheepskin and blood, the taste is simply sour.
Cheng Yiping yawned and stepped off the bed, only to find that the three people in the rest of the beds were still asleep.
Fortunately, Cheng Yiping is not a very particular person, and he didn't care that the rest of the people in the dormitory were still sleeping, and directly opened the door and came to the restaurant of the high-speed rail.
Expensive.
It's expensive.
Quite expensive!
Even Cheng Yiping, who has now received Bai Yuhe's million-dollar remuneration, is still dumbfounded when he looks at the price of restaurant food marked on the high-speed rail, although the news report says that the high-speed rail still has cheap box lunches, but Cheng Yiping bet that he has taken the high-speed rail so many times and has never seen it.
But it can't be helped, as the saying goes, life is like rape, if you can't resist, then it's better to accept it, the high-speed rail is a big family, and if you're hungry, you have to eat, unless you're starving.
Fortunately, today's Cheng Yiping is not bad for this money, so he directly ordered a few boxed lunches and drinks, and ate a lot.
To be honest, in the Arctic, although there is a support of logistics personnel, most of the industries that can be eaten are just canned food with strong compression, where is there a fresh meal that is delicious, although it is a box lunch.
"Beauty, can I pay with a mobile phone here?"
"Of course, we have a variety of payment platforms here that support mobile payment......"
"Oh, you can pay with your mobile phone, that's great, now who has nothing on them and still carries so much cash, it's really inconvenient, it's a lot more convenient to sweep the phone"
"That's true, but then again, although it's very convenient to pay with a mobile phone, if you don't have any cash on you, if the phone breaks, it's sad......."
Sitting in the high-speed rail restaurant, Cheng Yiping, who was eating a box lunch, looked at it, but saw four or five young teenagers and girls in beautiful and fashionable clothes chatting with each other, holding a smartphone from everyone's hand, opening the payment system, scanning it at the QR code, and paying the money, convenient, fast and convenient.
"That's a good thing to say, although it's convenient, but this money is also used quickly, tell you that you used to put cash on your body, I have a number in my heart every day, but now it's different, pay directly with my mobile phone, I can't see the money at all, and I don't have a lot to spend."
"That's exactly right, if you save money in a savings card, it's just that, if you use a bound credit card, it's called a refreshing, but you can pay back the account, it will definitely make you cry dad and call your mother!"
"Yes, yes, but in general, the times are advancing, and it is much more convenient to have mobile phone payments than before..."
"That's exactly right, so now I can go out every day in the future, I can do without my wallet, but I must carry my mobile phone, and I have to carry two spare batteries on my back..."
"Come on, come on, which smartphone can also change the battery now, are they all built-in batteries, okay? Let me tell you before, I think the built-in battery mobile phone is very good, but now I find that it is all pits, the mobile phone with the built-in battery can't replace the battery at all, the phone is out of battery, broken, and can only be repurchased..."
"That's for sure, then again, the quality of the current mobile phone is not comparable with the previous one, I remember that when I bought the mobile phone, it was fine for 4 or 5 years, and now I basically have to change a mobile phone every year or two......"
Cheng Yiping silently ate the boxed lunch, listening to the cheerful voices of the boys and girls in front of him, feeling the passage of time, thinking that he was also a young and lively teenager back then, and now he is called an uncle.
"Mobile payment payment?, the times are really changing too fast......"
In just such a short period of time, Cheng Yiping has seen that 80% of the most people who come to the restaurant to buy food use mobile phones to pay, and only a small number of people are still using cash to pay.
"It seems that I also have to figure out this so-called mobile phone payment, if I can't keep up with the times, it will be troublesome, I am only 28 years old, not an 82-year-old antique ......"
Maybe it's because of running around outside for a long time, helping people find people and things, and for the rapid development of science and technology, Cheng Yiping really didn't pay much attention to it, after all, even if he helped Bai Yuhe complete the task of finding the Northern Lights, all he wrote was a check, which could be directly transferred to the bank card, not a mobile phone transfer.
"The development of this era is really changing with each passing day, and if you are not careful, this mobile payment has become so popular and convenient. ”
Cheng Yiping shook his head funny, took out his mobile phone, drummed it, downloaded the mobile phone payment system, only need to bind the bank card, it is indeed very convenient, I still remember that a year ago, although the mobile phone payment has appeared, but it has not shown such a spreading trend, and now basically all the stores can be used, in other words, as long as you have a mobile phone, you can use it everywhere without cash.
It's really convenient and fast.
"Hey, this waiter, I want to ask you how much a boxed lunch here costs......"
The two older couples helped each other to the attention of the restaurant, and saw that they were dressed very plainly, as if they had come from a remote place, and cautiously asked about the price.
“45!”
"45? It's so expensive, is there anything cheaper? A box of lunches in our place is only ten yuan at most......
The old woman was stunned by the high price, dumbfounded, and blurted out, but in exchange for the helpless look of the flight attendant.
"This is already the cheapest we have here, and we still have 69 and 99 boxed lunches here, which is the same price!"
"But these 45 boxes of lunches are too expensive"
The old woman trembled when she spoke, and kept calculating in her heart, a box lunch was 45, and he and his wife combined, that was 90 yuan, nearly 100 yuan.
Two boxed lunches for a hundred dollars?
