Jia Lei came to the airport in a hurry with people, but as soon as he inquired, there were no tickets to Pengcheng within three days, and then he immediately went to the train station, but there was also no train ticket to Pengcheng.

It turned out that on August 9, Pengcheng was going to issue a stock lottery form, and the stock market in Pengcheng had not yet risen, and the ticket and ferry fare to enter Pengcheng rose first: the original 25 yuan ticket rose to 100 yuan, and the original 30 yuan ticket rose to 200 yuan.

And the plane tickets that were already in short supply are even more difficult to find now, even if Jia Lei moved out everyone he knew, he didn't get a ticket to fly to Pengcheng!

"Now the famous people in the city have come to buy plane tickets to Pengcheng, and we really don't have tickets. We can't help you this time!" replied the man at the airport.

"What about mobile tickets, don't I remember that there are still two reserved tickets for insiders on each flight?" Jia Lei asked.

"No! All the planes took off almost fully loaded, and even the aisles had temporary tickets. The people at the airport said helplessly.

"Since I can't buy a plane ticket, I can only take my own plane, so I will call the capital and ask them to drive my Il-76 plane parked at Binhai Airport. If I can't buy a ticket, I'll fly by myself!" Jia Lei gritted his teeth and stomped his feet.

It was simple to let the plane come over, but it was not easy to set the route, so Jia Lei had to call the capital to ask for help. But what Jia Lei didn't expect, as soon as he opened his mouth this time, the other party immediately agreed.

It's just that the people in the capital want him to take a few more people to Pengcheng on the plane, Jia Lei thought about it, anyway, it was too wasteful to only take one or two people on such a big plane, so he agreed. But......

"It's okay to bring someone over, but you know that I landed at Pengcheng Airport, and the airport charges me for my parking fee. These hitchhikers, can you help me pay for gas and parking fees?" Jia Lei asked directly to the person on the phone.

No matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat, Jia Lei didn't want to make money from this, he just wanted to earn the oil money and downtime fees!

"And how much do you want?" asked the person on the other side of the phone, speechless.

Wu Development couldn't understand that Jia Lei, who could afford to buy a plane, would care about these two little money!

"I don't want much, how can the various expenses of this trip add up to tens of thousands of dollars? Now the price of tickets outside has increased tenfold! I don't want much, you can let those who want to take a plane pay directly in dollars for the ticket." The price of the ticket remains the same, but the money used to buy the ticket changes. Jia Lei said.

"Okay, I know! When the domestic air ticket is not discounted, it is about 1,200 to 1,500, so I'll ask them to give you 1,500 US dollars, right?

"Yes!" Jia Lei nodded and said.

August 8, 1992

"Dasha, you eat less, what if you vomit again when you take the plane later?" Jia Lei looked at Dasha who kept talking about it.

"It's okay! My mom brought me a couple of garbage bags, saying they were for me to use as vomit bags. Dasha said unconcernedly,

Although he threw up the first time he flew on the plane, it doesn't mean that he vomits every time, right?

"What if you spit on me?" said Hong Chen with a frown.

"Then you stay away from me, anyway, Jia Lei's plane is so big that you can sit casually! You dislike me now, and when you are afraid of heights and weak legs, I won't care about you." Dasha said angrily.

Dasha felt that although he could vomit, he was better than Hong Chen, who couldn't even stand up on a plane, and Hong Chen was afraid of heights.

"It's okay! This time I brought sleeping pills, and when I get on the plane, I'll take one table, and then I can sleep until Pengcheng." Hong Chen said.

"Okay, don't talk, the plane is coming! Jia Lei stood at the airport and ran to the side and said that he had already seen his plane.

"Dasha, you remember to buy a few more lottery forms this time, I can't go this time, so it's up to you!" Ms. Jin said as she stuffed her wallet and ID card into her son.

"Jia Lei, is this your plane? It's so big! This is the first time I've taken a plane?" Zhou Feng looked at the plane with wide eyes and a curious face, and several other neighbors also had this expression.

"This plane is indeed mine, but this plane is a cargo plane, so it is not as comfortable as a civil plane, so let's get over it!" Jia Lei said.

"The conditions are almost fine, now ordinary people want to go to Pengcheng can't buy plane tickets and train tickets at all, you are willing to take us along the way, we are grateful that you are too late! Anyway, we didn't spend a penny on tickets, and there is nothing to complain about making cargo planes." Another neighbor, Mr. Fan, said.

There are so many people across the country who want to buy stock lottery tables that it's just that those who move slowly can't get on the train anymore.

So when the neighbors heard that Jia Lei could take someone to Pengcheng together, a few people with good relationships immediately came to the door.

Jia Lei felt that the plane was so big, it was no problem to bring a few more people, so he agreed to everyone, anyway, the people who came had a good relationship with him!

Unexpectedly, Jia Lei was stunned as soon as he walked into the cabin with people, and the originally empty cabin didn't know when it became a passenger plane when the passenger module was pressed, and there were nearly 300 passengers sitting in it.

"Am I dazzled or am I on the wrong plane? Is my plane a cargo plane and not a passenger plane?" Jia Lei asked in disbelief as he rubbed his eyes.

"Oh, Jia Lei, you don't even know your own plane, do you? Come in, we have specially reserved three seats for you in the first class. Wu Development came over and said.

"Are there only 3 seats?, but what about 9 of us here?" Jia Lei looked back at his six neighbors in embarrassment, he didn't know what to do now.

"This ...... When you asked me to arrange a route, you didn't seem to say that there were so many people, right?" Wu Kaifa asked.

"I really didn't say it, because the plane is so big, needless to say! When I asked you to arrange the route, you just told me to let me take a few people with me by the way, didn't you tell me at the time, how many people there were? It turns out that there are more than 200 people!" Jia Lei rolled his eyes and asked.

Everyone hasn't made it clear, and now it's wrong!

"These people are my friends and friends in the capital, and they begged to come to the door and wanted to take a plane to Pengcheng, but I was embarrassed to refuse. Wu said helplessly.

"Then these people are also my friends, and I can't refuse! Besides, I'm the owner of this plane, shouldn't I be the one who matters on the plane, and who I want to take needs your consent?" Jia Lei asked.

"It's really not!" Wu Development nodded.

"Okay, the plane is about to take off, so let's do it! Can you help me see if there are any vacancies in the cabin?" Jia Lei asked.

"No, you see the thinner people over there, the three of them are crammed into two seats, and there are no empty seats in the cabin." Wu Development said worriedly.

"Since those three people are crowded, can I also find two skinny ones for them to squeeze with my neighbors!" Jia Lei's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"We paid $1,500 to get a spot, are you going too far? This is an airplane, not a train! It's too embarrassing, I'm not going to do it!" said a boy, who immediately objected.

None of the people who can afford to buy air tickets with so much money are ordinary people, and this plane can approve the route so quickly This group of passengers didn't have the strength to find out, of course they didn't want to squeeze with ordinary people.

"Jia Lei, we didn't spend the money on the plane ticket, why don't we just sit on the ground? Anyway, I used to sit on the ground without a seat on the train. Zhou Feng proposed

"No, it's too unsafe to encounter air currents like that! I think you might as well go to the first-class cabin inside, the position is relatively large, and two people can sit down, I'll take Hong Chen and them to the cockpit and maintenance cabin to squeeze with the staff. Jia Lei thought about it and said.

Jia Lei sat on Dasha in the cockpit and sighed, there was only one seat in the cockpit, he could only sit like this.

Jia Lei felt that he was going to finish this time, and even the plane to Pengcheng was squeezed like this, and Jia Lei was even more worried about the situation in Pengcheng.

****

Two hours later, the plane landed at Pengcheng Bao'an International Airport, and Jia Lei stepped off the plane with stiff steps.

"Whew, doesn't it seem that the matter is as serious as I thought? There are still as many planes at the airport as before, and there are not many passengers?" Jia Lei said happily as he looked at the empty tarmac, and he thought he would see a very busy scene.

"Jia Lei, isn't it too early for you to be happy now, before I came, I heard from a friend that the airport in Pengcheng was already full of people. It's not crowded here, let's wait until we get to the hall to see it!" Wu said.

"This is an airport? No matter how many people can be crowded? There are only a few domestic flights a day at this airport? Jia Lei said in disbelief.

It's a pity that Jia Lei is destined to be disappointed, as soon as he walks out, he sees that the airport hall is bustling with people, as if all the flights are full today.

"I can understand that domestic flights are full, but there are so many people at the exit of international flights?" Jia Lei asked with wide eyes.

"What's strange about this, I can't buy a ticket to Pengcheng in China, so I can only buy a ticket to fly abroad, and then take an international flight to Pengcheng from the local area!" said a Chinese man passing by them.

Jia Lei looked at the number plate of the island country on his suitcase, and it was obvious that the transit place he chose was Tokyo, and it took little time for these two places to be close to each other.

"I feel that thinking of Pengcheng now is as difficult as crossing the sea with the Eight Immortals, some people pick up trains, some people drive themselves, and there are many ships on the sea! Hong Chen sighed.

"Yes, there are so many people even in the airport, and there will definitely be more people in the city. I don't know how many people from all over the country have crowded into Pengcheng City?" Wu said.

"At least 1.2 million people!" Jia Lei said expressionlessly.

"Where did you get the numbers?" Wu asked.

"I calculated the number of passengers on flights and the number of passengers on trains. Jia Lei said.

"You're really good! I didn't think to calculate such a thing. Wu said.

Of course, Jia Lei has never thought of calculating this kind of thing, this number is the number published in the newspaper in his previous life, and Jia Lei knew this matter very well in his last life.

The reason why Jia Lei said that there are at least 1.2 million people is because these are just people who are directly involved in the queue, usually these people will bring friends or friends with them, and later some people estimated that at least 1.5 million outsiders have come to Pengcheng City in the past few days.

Jia Lei and the others found a taxi after leaving the airport, and half of his passengers had a car to pick them up, and the rest took a taxi into the city like him.

The situation in Pengcheng City is really crowded, and after Jia Lei's taxi arrives in the city, it is almost impossible to drive.

The streets were full of people, sleeping or chatting on the side of the road and on the corners, and in some places there were queues for several kilometers.

"There are so many people here, something is going to happen......" Jia Lei thought to himself as he looked at the crowd on the side of the road.

"Where are you going?" asked the driver.

"Pearl Hotel!" Jia Lei said as he looked down at the address that the little Jew had told him.

"Oh, it seems that you are from Pearl City. The driver said immediately.

"How do you know that I'm from Mingzhu?, I speak Mandarin very well?" asked Jia Lei curiously.

"You don't know this, I know where you are when you mention the Pearl Hotel. In the past few days, people from all over the country are squeezing into Pengcheng, many outsiders like to live together, and now those rich people from other places have already packed all the major hotels, as long as you say which hotel to go to, I know where you are from. The driver said.

"And where do they live?" asked Dasha curiously.

"If you big stockholders from Pearl City have money, they rent an entire floor of the Pearl Hotel in the city center, and another group of nobles from the capital have set up camp in the most expensive Emgrand Hotel. There is also a group of people from the three northeastern provinces, who live in the Tianchi Hotel in a group. Although the facilities of the hotel are not the best, it is only a few steps away from the securities company, so it is also very expensive. It costs hundreds of yuan a day, and ordinary people can't afford to live in it!" said the driver.

"So that's the case, no wonder you knew that we were Mingzhu people as soon as you heard us say that we were going to Mingzhu's coffin!"

"That's right!" the driver said, nodding.

"Then why don't those people outside stay in a hotel, but sleep on the road?" Jia Lei asked curiously.

"All the hotels, inns, and guest houses in Pengcheng City have long been full, and these later people can't find a place to live even if they spend more money, so they can only sleep on the street! Fortunately, the weather is warm now, and it is okay to sleep on the street with clothes on. The driver explained to Jia Lei.

****

"All the hotels are full?Jia Lei, where should we go to stay now?" Hong Chen asked with a frown.

"I have my own arrangements for this! Dasha will go to the little Jews and me later, and you will take the neighbors to Wenjia Village and let them stay in my hotel apartment. Jia Lei thought about it and said.

"Got it!" Dasha said, nodding.
