Chapter 10 The Frontier Falls
Saying goodbye to Xiao Tao, as soon as I returned to the box, I couldn't wait to open the thermos flask, "Wow! It smells so good! I deeply inhaled the aroma from the thermos with my nose, "It's so fragrant, Brother Peng, give me some points, Harazi is about to flow to the ground." Xiao Liu begged me, "Wait, go and call Meizi and Lena over, the food needs to be shared with everyone, and you can relieve your hunger or not." I instructed Xiao Liu, "Okay, but don't wait for me to come back to eat." ”
"Where's dinner?" We were opening the door of the box and enjoying the food that Xiao Tao prepared for us, when suddenly a voice sounded at the door, and when we looked up, we saw a tall middle-aged man standing at the door of the box, "Come in and sit, eat some together." The fat brother said to him enthusiastically, "I'm sorry to disturb everyone, you eat you, I just ate." The tall man hurriedly waved his hand, "I'm also from this carriage, just in the box at the head, see the excitement here, come over and join in the fun." "I saw you at the station, and you sell leather jackets." Xiao Liu said, "Yes, yes, the little brother is really observant. "Come in and sit down and have some Baikal beer, we have Baikal smoked fish here." Lao Chen said to the tall man, "Okay, I'll join in the fun with everyone, I still have the original puree wine brought from Manchuria, the pickled grassland white mushrooms, and the silver-edged white fish canned from Dalai Lake, I will bring it immediately." "You guys are chatting and drinking slowly, I'm going back to my own car, I'm going to be scolded by my sister when I stay here for a long time, thank you Brother Peng for your food." Meizi also stood up and prepared to leave, "Meizi will come over later and tell us the story of your grandmother in the 3/4 international train, I didn't finish it just now." I said to Meizi, "Okay, Brother Peng, in order to thank you for the food, I also have to come and say, okay, I'll go first." ”
Lena also went back to the cabin to hand over the shift with another flight attendant, and now there are four of us left in the box, as well as Brother Wenzhou and Xie San, a tall middle-aged man I just met. Xie San went to Sverdlovsky (Yekaterinburg), got on the bus in Manchuria, and bought four bunks in the entire box by himself, and the box was stuffed with large bags of fur coats and leather jackets.
Last year, his brother went to Yekaterinburg and set up a stall in the market, and the business was good and asked him to bring some goods to help, so he got a passport and visa, and the travel agency paid a high price to book the whole box. I really wanted to hear the story of the international master in Manchuria, so I asked Xie San: "Third brother, tell me the story of you dumping bags in Manchuria." Xie San said: "Okay, then I'll talk about it, as soon as the Manzhouli port opened, I became an international master on the border, without a passport, an ID card, two photos can apply for a temporary tourist passport, with the travel agency Russian Chita bus three-day tour, each person is allowed to carry fifty kilograms of luggage, how many clothes we can wear, as long as the goods can be brought over is money, I wear seven clothes at most once in winter, after the Russian customs quickly undressed, the sweaty, the clothes inside are all wet. As soon as you arrive in Chita, you will start selling goods, in the first year, as long as you bring something to the past, Lao Maozi has what you want, we basically bring leather jackets, sportswear, down jackets, and the goods brought to Chita can be sold out in a while, Lao Maozi grabbed your clothes and rushed to buy it, after selling the goods, we can't go back empty-handed, and then buy Russian tweed coats, binoculars, Soviet stamps, electric shavers in the market and bring them back to Manchuria, and then sell them to those outsiders who come to travel. At night, I stayed in Induris (travel agency) in Chita, and if I gambled, I went to the casino, and if I had fun, I went to a nightclub, and the beauties in the nightclub were called more, anyway, how to have fun. At that time, it was too easy to make money, anything in the past was doubled several times to earn, and the Russian goods brought back also made money, people who came to travel from other places liked to buy, sometimes they met Lao Maozi who had no money to buy our goods, and they would also exchange things with us, a sportswear could be exchanged for a Soviet stamp, a sportswear was only a few dozen yuan, and this stamp was taken back to Manchuria and sometimes met a favorite foreigner who could sell it for hundreds of yuan. I run Chita three or four times a month, and my wife has a stall in the northern market in Manchuria, and she is responsible for selling the things she brings back. "So how much can you earn in a month?" The fat brother asked Xie San, "I won't tell you, I can earn tens of thousands of yuan a month casually." "Wow! Tens of thousands of yuan, my monthly salary is only a few hundred yuan. I exclaimed, "What am I here, it's all hard-earned money, we have a lot of great money there, a car of fruit in exchange for a car of waste motors, and I made hundreds of thousands of dollars at a time." We are all risking our lives, once in the market met a few old Maozi grabbed something, we fought with them, as a result, one of our partners was injured very badly, bleeding a lot, the goods were also taken advantage of the chaos to rob the goods, the police came, Lao Maozi ran away, we were taken to the police station to record a confession, tossed for a long time before releasing people. "Did the robbers catch them later?" I asked, "Who's going to catch it?" Do you think it's in China, how friendly we Chinese are to foreigners, if something happens to foreigners being robbed here, do you see if the police pay attention to it? In Russia, no one cares if something happens to the Chinese, and it is routine for the police to take them to record confessions, and as long as there are no dead people, they don't care. Sometimes when we find petty theft in the market, as long as the loss is not big, we will not call the police, and if we can't solve the problem, we will be taken to the police station to record a confession. It's nothing, just lose some goods, if you encounter a black hairy robbery it will be even worse, I have encountered, once in the hotel a few black hairs came in, three of them with guns, blocked us in the room, the money and jewelry, anyway, the valuable things were looted, and the unsold goods were also taken away. "Wow! It's so scary, it's like in the movies. I couldn't help but interject, "The black hairs are Caucasians, all of them are mafias and terrorists, even the Russians are afraid of them, the police don't dare to touch them, these people are outlaws and very united, if you make a feud with them, then you won't have a good life, they will try to get revenge on you, as long as you obediently hand over the money, they won't hurt you." Remember that money is something outside the body, and if you encounter such a robbery in Russia, do not resist, it is important to save your life. "Yes, yes, I have also encountered it with the fat man, who has not encountered a robbery in Russia, it is important to save his life at a critical moment, as long as the person is okay, the money can be earned back." Lao Chen said, "Brother Chen, please also tell me about the robbery you encountered." Xiao Liu said, "Yes, Brother Chen, tell me about it, I also want to hear it." I immediately agreed.
