When the train finally arrived at the station, Situ was almost stiff when he moved his hands and feet, and he sat on the train for more than 18 hours, which was really not done by people, but now Situ's heart was full of apprehension. Coming out of the declining town of her hometown and deciding to develop in the south, Situ knows that the road ahead will not be easy, she doesn't know what awaits her, will she gain a foothold in this city that is said to be full of gold? Her heart was full of anxiety and uncertainty about the future, she didn't know anyone in this city, in order to have a place to settle down, she looked for friends, relatives, acquaintances everywhere at home, and found everything she could, and finally found a student of Situ High School English teacher who was willing to live in him temporarily, a fellow surnamed Song, named Song Jian. So Situ solved the accommodation problem when he just went to Shenzhen. Of course, Situ, who has not yet entered Shenzhen, does not have the concept of fellow countrymen, and the concept of fellow villagers is the consciousness that Situ only had after he was in Shenzhen. In fact, Situ didn't think about living in a hotel, because it costs money to live in a hotel, and she has never been out of such a far place, there is no acquaintance, she panicked, she thought about living with an acquaintance for a few days, and then find a house to rent after she is familiar with the environment, so that if something happens, there will be someone to help. In fact, Situ is afraid in her heart, she has not gone far, the farthest is to go to the provincial capital, she is afraid that there will be an accident in the big city, it is said that the security in Shenzhen is not good, it is said that there are many liars in Shenzhen, in short, people in the big city are not Situ who has not seen the world can deal with it, and there is always a support for finding an acquaintance.

Just after the train arrived in Pinghu, Situ called Brother Song, Brother Song said that he would drive to pick her up, very enthusiastic, Situ's hanging heart finally fell, her eyes were black, she didn't even have a map of Shenzhen, she didn't know Brother Song's address, I was afraid that Brother Song would not come to pick her up. When the train was about to enter the station, Situ called Brother Song again, and Brother Song had already arrived, so he was waiting for her at the exit of the station, saying that he was wearing a plaid gray T-shirt, black pants, and glasses. Situ told him that he was wearing a sky blue shirt, black pants, glasses, a black bag, and a gray tow box. Situ thought about getting dressed for a long time before getting on the train, but finally decided to dress formally, so as not to let Brother Song have a bad image of her when they met for the first time.

There are so many people on the train, they are all full, and Situ heard that because of SARS, there are not many people on the train in recent times, and there are many more people than this, not to mention the New Year, there are many people, and even the toilets are crowded with people. Situ imagined the toilet crowded with people, and couldn't help but shiver, it was terrible. There were a lot of people getting off the train, very crowded, Situ packed up his things and ran to the door of the carriage when the train was about to stop, the train arrived at the station, as soon as the conductor opened the door, Situ got off, it was too crowded, and Brother Song was waiting outside, she quickly followed the instructions of the train to go out, and when she arrived at the exit of the station, she saw Brother Song from a distance. He stood on the edge of the exit of the station, looked inside, and felt that Situ was, but he was afraid that he would recognize the wrong person, so he didn't say hello. Situ was also afraid of admitting his mistake, so he quickly checked the ticket and came out, walked up to Brother Song, and asked, "Are you Brother Song?" Situ kept an eye on it, did not say who he was, for fear of being deceived, there were many people in front of the exit of the railway station, there were people picking up, and there were soliciting customers, where to ask? Where the car goes, get in the car and leave immediately, and so on.

Brother Song looks to be in his thirties, with a flat haircut, some vague white hair, not fat or thin, about 1.7 meters, dark skin, and looks very capable. He was very gentle and smiled at Situ, "Situ, Teacher Meng told me, come and give me the box." Situ's heart fell, she didn't find the wrong person, she hurriedly said: "No, no, Brother Song, the box is not heavy, drag it away, it is not heavy or heavy, it is really troublesome for you, and I want to disturb you." Brother Song replied: "It's not troublesome, everyone is a fellow countryman, Teacher Meng told me, saying that you are his student and his neighbor, speaking of which we are still brothers and sisters, it's not troublesome, but the place where we live is a little hard, we all live in the factory, I opened a factory in Bao'an, outside the Guan, rented a factory, usually my wife and I live in the factory, you will go down." Situ hurriedly said: "It's okay, it's good to have a place to settle down when you just come to Shenzhen, thank you." "Let's go quickly, I made an appointment at six o'clock in the evening, Shenzhen is not like home, there is not much to go anywhere, this side is big, I am afraid that it will be too late to go, come, I will take the box, no need to be polite to me." Saying that, Brother Song took Situ's tow box and left in front, Situ was not embarrassed to be polite to Brother Song, so he followed behind and left quickly.

The parking lot is not far away, and it is about 200 meters away, Brother Song drove a small van, Situ doesn't know the car, he doesn't know what the car is, anyway, at this time, in Situ's opinion, there is a private car that is very powerful. Brother Song put her towbox in the car, and Situ didn't sit in the passenger seat, because she had just heard Brother Song say that he and her wife lived in the factory, and she still understood that Brother Song still had some thoughts about avoiding suspicion, but because it was the teacher who opened his mouth and couldn't wipe his face, Situ thought to himself, he still had to quickly familiarize himself with the environment and find a suitable house to rent as soon as possible, so as not to add too much trouble to others. Situ sat in the back seat, and Brother Song sat in the driver's seat and started the car.

The car swayed out of the parking lot, out of Shenzhen West Railway Station, Situ didn't know the place, just very curious to look out the window, Shenzhen's road is so wide, there are a lot of cars on the road, and Shenzhen is so beautiful, so many trees, so many flowers, so beautiful! Situ was shocked, the building was so high, his head was dizzy, Situ felt like he was in a dream, walking in a beautiful big garden, the building in this garden was so high, so high that it was inserted into the clouds, it was really Grandma Liu who entered the Grand View Garden. Situ silently exclaimed in his heart, and did not make a sound, afraid that Brother Song would laugh at her. "I made an appointment at night, and there is no way to accompany you, your sister-in-law is free at night, and I asked her to take you to dinner. Shenzhen is big, there are many people, and there are many opportunities for development, you have to think about how you are strong in those aspects, and then think about how to find a job. Brother Song said to Situ while driving, and Situ hurriedly returned: "I graduated from a junior college, studied Chinese language and literature, and passed level 4 in English. Brother Song: "Chinese language and literature are not professional, and it is difficult to find a job, so I guess I can only find some secretarial jobs." There are a lot of doctors and masters in Shenzhen, unlike a master's degree at home, which is great, and your diploma is a bit low. But don't worry, Shenzhen is inclusive, and there are a lot of people in Shenzhen who have not graduated from primary school doing very well. Snakes have snake paths, and turtles have turtle paths. There are a lot of fish and dragons here, and as long as you have the ability, gold will always shine. But in Shenzhen, everyone has to rely on themselves, I think you are quite clever, don't rush, take your time, there is a process. Situ then slowed down in his heart, "Your sister-in-law will be fine tomorrow, I asked her to take you around Shenzhen, and by the way, I will take you to see the talent market." You don't have to worry too much, since you're here, just do it and find a way to stay. Situ felt that Brother Song's words were saying that she was going to go in her heart, she didn't want to go home if she didn't want to make some money in Shenzhen, she had stayed enough in that small city, she didn't want to go back, she wanted to stay and take root in Shenzhen.

Along the way, Brother Song asked about the teacher's current situation, and Situ also told Brother Song, "Teacher Meng said that you are his pride, you are his most proud disciple, not only was he admitted to Beijing Foreign Chinese College in the college entrance examination, but also went to the sea when he graduated, and went south to Shenzhen to be his own boss, well done!" After Brother Song heard this, Situ didn't know if he was too sensitive, he felt that Brother Song was a little embarrassed, and he was a little depressed, so he only heard him whisper: "The teacher is too exalted to me, I'm like this, it's nothing in Shenzhen." ”

Shenzhen is indeed very big, Situ looked at the time, the train arrived at the station at half past four, no delay, out of the station, and Song Ge greeted to drive for about fifteen minutes, four forty-five departure, this is half past five, it seems that there is not the end, which in the Nantou Pass when Song Ge and Situ introduced: "This is Nantou Pass, Shenzhen is divided into customs inside and outside the customs." There is no need to apply for a border guard certificate outside the customs, but it is required inside the customs, and it must be checked every time you enter the customs. If you live in the Guannai, you will often check it, and if you find that you don't have a border permit, you will be sent back. Those who live outside the customs do not need these. The security inside the customs is relatively good, and the outside is very chaotic, these days I asked your sister-in-law to take you to be more familiar with the familiar environment, if you are not familiar, you must not run around, it is very chaotic outside the customs. There are four districts in the Guan, Futian, Nanshan, Luohu and Yantian, and two districts outside the Guan, Bao'an and Longgang. Just now the West Railway Station is in Nanshan District, and we are now out of the customs and going to Bao'an District. “

Situ listened and said, "Brother Song, I got a border guard permit in my hometown, is it really chaotic outside the customs?" ”

"Yes, it's very chaotic outside the gate, and it's best for girls not to run around at night, it's very unsafe. Don't trust others too much, don't talk to strangers, people give you drinks, don't drink water. “

"Got it, Brother Song, thank you, I don't run around at night, I go out with my sister-in-law during the day. Brother Song, sister-in-law's surname? ”

"Your sister-in-law's surname is Zhou, and she has a single word, it's good if you call her Sister Li, she is very easy to get along with, you don't have to be nervous."

"Oh, got it, thank you, Brother Song."

"Everyone is a fellow countryman, and a senior brother and sister, you don't have to be so polite, I said at least 20 thank you along the way, I can afford to listen to the cocoon, I really don't need to see the outside like this, if I see the outside, I won't agree to the teacher, Situ, you take it easy, your sister-in-law and I are your fellow countrymen, your sister-in-law is my high school classmate, I really don't need to see the outside."

"Got it, Brother Song, I'm not outside." Situ hurriedly said, and after listening for a while, Situ asked, "Brother Song, do you know where to buy a map of Shenzhen?" "Well, it seems that there are newsstands everywhere on the roadside, Shenzhen is a city of immigrants, most of the population is foreign, thousands of people come to Shenzhen every day, so every newsstand will have maps for sale, and there is a great demand." If you go out tomorrow, you can buy it at any roadside newsstand. “

After a pause, Brother Song said, "Situ, you remember, Shenzhen is a long strip of terrain, from west to east all the way through Bao'an District, Nanshan District, Futian District, Luohu District, Yantian District and Longgang District, remember this terrain, you will quickly remember the topography of Shenzhen." "Oh, I remember, the long strip of terrain, from west to east are Bao'an District, Nanshan District, Futian District, Luohu District, Yantian District and Longgang District." The two of them chatted slowly, the time passed unconsciously, Situ didn't know the east, west, north and south, looked down, it was almost half past five, and he actually drove for almost an hour, Situ only then knew what the concept of a big city was, if he was in his hometown, wherever he went, the farthest would be half an hour, unless you went down to the county. Sure enough, big cities are different, what a big city this is, and listening to what Brother Song just said, this is only going around in the two districts. Soon the car got off the road, there were much fewer cars on the road, Brother Song told Situ that they had been driving on National Highway 107, which was more congested, and today's luck was okay, there was no traffic jam, and the road was relatively smooth, but the traffic flow was larger. Situ listened carefully to every word Brother Song said, because she found that many of the terms used by Brother Song sounded a little unfamiliar, such as traffic jams, such as traffic flow, such as fellow villagers, etc., it is obvious that in Shenzhen, many things are different from her hometown.
