In the following days, Wang Yiyuan spent almost every day in boredom, but fortunately, the day of departure was getting closer and closer, and the preparations before departure were also put on the agenda.

The ticket Wang Yiyuan purchased this time was a flight from Seoul, which departed one day earlier than the charter flight of the tour group that Hu Hao and his family participated in, but arrived in the United States on the same day, two hours later than Hu Hao's flight.

Regarding the issue of transit visa, Wang Yiyuan has also learned about it for a long time. South Korea offers a visa-free policy for transit tourists to the United States who have a valid U.S. visa and are bound to the United States, as long as they have booked a ticket to leave the country within 30 days and have not previously violated the bad behavior of illegal overstay, they can enjoy a 30-day visa-free stay.

However, Wang Yiyuan was not too interested in this. She prefers places with good natural scenery, and South Korea, which is not very developed in tourism resources, her impression is only to stay in the ridicule about plastic surgery or the film and television dramas that make the movie-loving crowd desperate, and naturally she can't think of traveling in the local area, so when she bought a ticket, she chose the two flights with the closest connecting time, and after flying from Baqing City to Seoul, there was only a stay of more than six hours in the middle.

According to the practice of entering the gate two hours in advance for international flights, after Wang Yiyuan arrives in Seoul, she only needs to stay at the airport for about four hours before she can enter the waiting room again, find a restaurant to eat, drink, and surf the Internet, which should be a good time to pass.

For the upcoming newlywed trip, Hu Hao "accidentally" broke his work phone very humanely, and began not to accept commissions a few days in advance, and even the studio did not appear.

Of course, Wang Yiyuan has no opinion on this, or is a little happy to see it. However, she didn't get the ease she imagined, and the time spent answering calls on her mobile phone in the past few days was almost catching up with Hu Hao's work mobile phone. The reason is, of course: purchasing agents.

Wang Yiyuan herself has no desire to shop, but she can't stand the enthusiasm of relatives and friends. Some friends heard that she was going to the United States, and immediately made a long list, all of which asked her to help buy on behalf of her, although there are few recognized luxury goods, but most of the things in the list are also valuable things, so that Wang Yiyuan has a big head at a glance, and has to explain to her friends one by one the regulations of China's customs on the declaration and taxation of inbound and outbound goods.

In principle, when Chinese passengers enter the country, when carrying articles obtained abroad, the total value is less than or equal to 5,000 CNY can be released duty-free, and if it is exceeded, even if it is a reasonable amount of self-owned goods, the excess part is also taxed.

Fortunately in the past few years, the frequency of spot checks is not very high, and occasionally more than those that have not been checked abound. However, with the rise of e-commerce, business globalization has entered the homes of ordinary people, and it is easy to buy overseas items through the website, enjoying the different policies of tax incentives in different countries. It is precisely in order to put an end to this unreasonable phenomenon that the General Administration of Customs has stepped up its law enforcement efforts, and now it is very unlikely that they want to bring luxury goods without customs declaration.

Of course, because of the different prices, even if the price of some items is added to the customs declaration, it is much lower than buying it in China, which makes Wang Yiyuan's explanation a lot more difficult.

It took several days and painstaking lips and tongues to finally persuade those friends who asked for the goods that could be bought in China, and as for whether the other party was not satisfied, she had no time to take care of it.

Before leaving, Wang Yiyuan was still sighing. In fact, our country's manufacturing power is not weak, not to mention that we are selling thriving domestic products abroad, just looking at many well-known brands in the world are assured to set up processing points in our country, it can show that our manufacturing power has actually been recognized by the international community.

Previously, such a scene was staged in an American talk show: the host invited several children to "argue current affairs", when the host mentioned that China is still a developing country, a little boy showed an incredible expression, and retorted very firmly: "Impossible, all the electrical appliances we use at home are all produced by them, how can they just be a developing country?!"

The child's words are very naïve, but this also illustrates the international status of China's manufacturing industry from another perspective.

But unfortunately, there will always be a group of Chinese people who will always distrust our own products, even if they know that they are produced in China, after taking out the country and affixing the price tag of other countries, it will make these people feel a lot more at ease, such as making a special trip abroad to buy toys or models with the word "made-in-China". This is not to say that they blindly worship foreign countries, but probably just a matter of formulating commodity standards.

There is a saying that is recognized by most people: we can produce good things, but good things are sent abroad. This sentence is not exact, but I have to say that this problem does exist objectively, that is, when we do export goods, we implement the standards of international or importing countries, but the goods sold in China are implemented by domestic standards, and the current domestic standards have not been improved to the level of international synchronization, so there are uneven quality of goods.

This is not something that one or two people can solve, nor is it a problem that can be solved in a short period of time, Wang Yiyuan also understands, but she still can't help but feel a little regretful in her heart.

After ruthlessly rejecting most of her friends' requests, Wang Yiyuan only kept a small number of catalogs of goods that she had not seen for sale in China, and then began to pack her luggage with peace of mind.

In the past, she preferred to be a backpacker, but this time, considering that she was going to the other side of the world, and it involved transfers, it was more convenient to use checked luggage, so she specially bought a 26-inch large suitcase.

However, what is a little embarrassing is that contrary to other girls who always feel that they don't bring enough things when they go out, Wang Yiyuan put a toiletry bag and a few changes of clothes in the box, and found that there was nothing to bring, and there was still a large empty area in the box, so she picked it up, and the items inside were shaking around.

Wang Yiyuan really didn't want to bring anything else, so she had to take a down jacket and use it as a filler, at least to prevent those things from bumping all the way to the other side of the world, and when you need to buy something else to put in, you only need to press the original fluffy down jacket, which can be regarded as an expedient measure.
