Zhi Dan is sick and sits on the side of the power compartment of the fire specialty. Looking at the scenery cannon that is constantly being discussed from the window. Hole some set

Of course, he wasn't fascinated by the sight outside the window, in fact he was thinking about it.

After the meeting with the Politburo, his father Fan Heng gave him another lecture, and nagged him some ideas from the high-level, which finally made Fan Wuxi figure out their thoughts, so he also knew that the stakes of this trip were very important, and the success or failure of his trip to Russia touched the hearts of many people.

Shen Ying was already asleep in the box, and this time she came out, just in time. An Indian passenger plane crashed, and both adults were more worried, so they did not take the plane, but made a train from the capital to Moscow.

If we look beyond the Chinese map to the world, you will be amazed by such a railway line, from Vladivostok on the Pacific coast to Chelyabinsk in the Ural Mountains. This line is the Trans-Asia-Europe Trans-Siberian Railway, the main transportation artery from Siberia to the Far East in Russia.

When the international train from Jingcheng Station leaves Erenhot and enters Russia via Ulaanbaatar, the railroad tracks extending from Mongolia join the Trans-Siberian Railway, which is just over half a day's journey from the legendary Lake Baikal.

From the capital to Moscow. The plane takes only seven or eight hours, while the train takes six days and five nights.

If you want to get to know the vast territory of Russia, you have to take one of their trains, because Russian railways are the most distinctive. In particular, the Trans-Siberian Railway, the largest on the planet. This is a product of the period of Tsarist Russia. It is a special yearning place for European and American tourists, and if you can experience it once, it is indeed a lot of fun.

Russia is a big country with a total length of 140,000 kilometers of railways, and their plains occupy most of the territory, and the conditions for developing railways can be said to be unique. The nineteenth-century "Anna Karenina" begins with the heroine Anna taking a train from Moscow to St. Petersburg.

However, the standard distance between Russian railways is 12 centimeters wider than that of China, and Chinese trains can enter Russian railways slowly, but not vice versa. Europeans and Americans are so interested in the grandeur of the Trans-Siberian Railway, the world's longest railway, that they have to visit it to be happy. It's like a foreigner going to the Great Wall of China to see it.

The train departs from Jingcheng Station, passes through Zhangjiakou South, Datong, Jining South, and arrives at Erenhot, a border checkpoint in China, where passports will be stamped with exit stamps, and passengers need to fill out the declaration form for passengers' luggage. At the same time, the rails were replaced, because the rails in China are different from those in Mongolia and Russia.

The track change is carried out in the international wheel change warehouse, the train cars are lifted one by one, the Chinese rails are removed, and the Russian-style rails are replaced, and the passengers do not need to get off the train during the whole process, and they do not feel any shock.

Because of the track change and border checks. So the train will stop in Erenhot for about three hours. In the evening, the train left Erenhot to enter Mongolia, and then stopped at the Mongolian border checkpoint to carry out the Mongolian entry visa inspection, customs declaration and other procedures, and arrived in Ulaanbaatar in the afternoon of the next day, and arrived at the Mongolian border again in the evening for the Mongolian exit inspection.

Moscow time is four hours behind Beijing time, and after entering Russia, the train stops at Naushki on the border to carry out the entry visa inspection of the Russian side, fill out the customs declaration form and migration card, and the inspection here is more detailed. At this point, the tedious border checks are finally over, and the train can run through the vast land of Siberia.

Through Lake Baikal, Irkutsk, Krasnoyarsk, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Tyumen oil fields, into the Ural Mountains in Yekaterinburg, after the Ural Mountains, the train officially entered Europe, then through Bermi, Kirov, the ancient capital of Vladimir, and finally entered Moscow with a population of 9 million.

The route passes through three countries, runs through the north and south of Mongolia, passes through at least 14 administrative units of Russia, oblasts, republics, autonomous regions, and territories, passes through the Mongolian Plateau, the Yablonov Mountains on the Mongolian-Russian border, the world's deepest Inner Lake Baikal, the southern part of the Central Siberian Plateau, the southern part of the West Siberian Plain, and enters the Eastern European Plain after crossing the Ural Mountains.

It takes a day for the train to leave China, a day to pass through Mongolia, and the other four days are spent on the vast territory of Russia.

More than half of the international trains are foreign tourists, and a considerable number of those few are from the north and south of the country. Almost all of these people are wearing suits and carrying suitcases, carrying a lot of leather jackets, tourist shoes and sportswear, and the nameplates range from Adidas to Nike, and of course they are basically fake

As soon as the train left the country, it turned into a mobile wagon, and the people on the train were all gearing up and excited. Every time they arrive at a station, they will rush up, gather around the windows and doors, echo up and down, and the purchase and sales are booming.

As soon as the train entered Mongolia, it was hooked up in the Soviet dining car and began to use rubles, so the gentlemen also traded in rubles.

Shen Ying was more sleepy on the train, so she and her female assistant were sleeping, and Fan Wuxi felt relatively fresh about the things on the train. So I just walked around and watched the excitement.

The public carriage was more lively, and two young couples placed two bottles of Erguotou on a small table in front of the window, priced at 60 rubles, and the result was that the gentlemen were carrying large bags and small bags and mainly traded on the platform. Therefore, they were only occasionally visited, and after two or three counteroffers of fifty roubles did not sell. In the end, they could not hold it anymore and sold it to two for fifty rubles. A Mongolian man with a red and black face.

The windows of the international train are divided into two sections, and the upper one is about eight centimeters wide. You can push it outward forty-five degrees, and the lower part is to save them through the small window above, paying with one hand and delivering the goods with the other.

The international train lives four people in each private room, which is quite a domestic soft sleeper, two small couples with one. He lived in the same private room, and when the train started again, everyone gathered outside to talk about the war. The two young couples said that they had also opened it, and took out the fifty yuan and shook it.

As a result, some people laughed at them, saying that you had been deceived. Then he took the fifty dollars, opened them and showed them, and said that they were Mongolian money, and then took out a fifty roubles from his bosom.

The two young couples had never seen fifty yuan of rubles before, and only after a comparison showed that the two coins were too similar, the size was the same, and the front of the pattern design was the same, with a profile portrait of Lenin on the left, and a big word on the right "staring" only the small characters were in Mongolian. The color is also based on dinghan. It's all gray-green, gray-green, like the grayer spots of Mongolia

However, the two husbands and wives are not short of money, and buying wine is just to join in the fun, so they are giggling and saying that they have long insights. There's nothing unpleasant.

The carriage is air-conditioned and has a TV, and the seats are spacious, and the TV plays the classic Soviet movie "Station for Two". To travel by train in Russia you have to have a European and American mentality and think that you are here for leisure. It's like going to a health resort, if you want to stay for a few days, the temperature and hygiene in the carriage will make you feel very comfortable, even if it is minus 40 degrees outside, the inside of the carriage must be above 25 degrees, and you can wear a short-sleeved shirt.

All carriages in Russia are non-smoking, but there are special smoking areas, and in order to take care of the Islamic people, the public meals in Russia are generally beef, so they do not ask each other about their beliefs.

The carriage doors are all electric. The toilets were very clean and automated, the tall female conductor was very helpful, someone bought smoked fish from Lake Baikal and wanted to temporarily store it in their dining car for a few hours, she also readily agreed, but after a while she ran back to say. Niu only knew that this was a fee-based service, and the price charged was twice the price of smoked fish, so the man said forget it, it was better to eat it directly.

The railway embankment in Russia is very poor, and the smoothness of the operation of the cars is much worse than that of China, and the degree is even worse. If it were in China, it would take two and a half days to reach such a long distance, but they didn't have the concept of trains, which was the timetable for trains twenty or thirty years ago.

Not long ago, there were train derailments in the Far East, all caused by the lack of maintenance of the railway embankment. Of course, they also have objective reasons. For example, if their railway line is too long and there are not so many workers, they have to use it. And most of the railroad sleepers are made of wood, and there are relatively few cement, which is also one of the reasons.

After waking up the next day after leaving the country. Shen Ying looked out of the car window with some excitement. I look forward to seeing the endless grasslands. However, she was immediately disappointed, because she did not see the sky and the wilderness of that day. The wind blows the grass and sees the sight of cattle and sheep.

The Mongolian steppe is indeed high and high at a glance, but there is no green grass in the sky, the grass is sparse and sparse against the ground and grows a thin layer, and half of it is withered and yellow, obviously this summer is very dry, it seems that the land is particularly poor and desolate, and the train can not see a tree, a house or a yurt for two or three hours. Not to mention the flock of sheep floating like white clouds, the scenery is very monotonous all the way.

Before dusk, the train drove into the Russian land, strange to say, the scenery in front of me suddenly changed as if by magic, the eyes were full of lush, dense vegetation, artemisia grass on both sides of the railway, a few meters away from the small birch forest along the way, the forest shrubs were colorful, the slopes of the birch trunks were silver and white, the leaves were yellow and green, shining in the afterglow of the setting sun, the primeval forest in the distance was covered, the trees were tall and straight, and the wild interest was rare.

There is only one realm, and the scenery of the north and south is so different, and the land in the north is fertile. The south side is like a barren land, Shen Ying couldn't help but sigh at Fan Wuxi, God is not fair. To play favorites.

"It's not unfair. After all, Mongolia's mineral resources will be crazy if anyone looks at it now." Fan Wuxian obviously has a different opinion.

The scenery on the ground is good, which is pleasing to the eye, but there is treasure under the ground, which can be exchanged for money.

Before the night had fallen, the train finally reached the shores of Lake Baikal.

Lake Baikal is the largest freshwater lake in the world, it contains one-fifth of the earth's total freshwater, which is equivalent to the total water storage capacity of the five great lakes in North America, and it is also the deepest lake in the world, with an average depth of 730 meters and a maximum depth of 1,620 meters.

Fan Wuxian and Shen Ying looked at Lake Baikal from the window in the car, and the boundless waters were white and vast, like a dream under the approaching night. Unfortunately, it was completely dark after a while, and I couldn't see anything from the black hole through the car window. It is said that the story of Su Wu's sheep herding that has been sung for thousands of years was born here, but it was called Beihai at that time.

After entering Russia. The gentlemen were even busier, it turned out that in Mongolia it was just a small fight, a warm-up before the war, and these people were basically at least two people working together, they sold goods and shouted, and one of them was in charge of collecting money. It seems that the northern ones mainly sell leather jackets, while the southern ones, such as Wenzhou, mainly sell tourist shoes.

The two young couples were not idle. Continue to sell moonshine two pot heads, like the last time, still put two bottles on the small table in front of the car window, or the price of two bottles of sixty rubles, or the beginning of the net was very high-spirited, and after two or three dials, I couldn't hold back, and finally sold it for fifty rubles, sold to a pair of middle-aged men and women. They seem to be husband and wife. The man was extremely tall, estimated to be two meters, lean. The small window on the train didn't bother him at all when he paid for the pick-up.

At first, they came and went around once, and they left without cutting the price, and after a round they came again. They seem to be very simple and honest. At first glance, they wanted to buy it, and the two couples also wanted to sell it, and finally they became friends.

Wait until the train starts again. Everyone gathered in the carriage again to talk nonsense, chatting and chatting, and the little couple took out the money they had just received and played with it in their hands. Or the guy who just saw through the counterfeit ruble yelled at them, you were deceived again, and then laughed.

The two young couples all looked at him in a daze, so he took out a fifty-yuan ruble from his arms, proudly compared it with the one of the two young couples in front of everyone, and said slowly, "Your one is a fifty-dollar ruble that has been invalidated."

So everyone came over to take a closer look, and it was found that compared with his one, the two young couples were the same, but the color was slightly brown.

The guy who debunked the scam has experience, and he concluded, you two young couples look like Sven, like scholars, and people turn around and see that you two are the most like rookies, who are you not blinded by?

Fan Wuxian listened to it unconsciously, and said in his heart that these people are very interesting, it seems that no matter what they do. It's all fun, and of course, a lot of fun is bought with money.
