On the morning of the second day of the Ulan-Ude international train, I arrived in Zabaikal at about 7 o'clock, and when I got off the train, I told Sù Sveta: "It will take about four days between the international train to Beijing and back to Zabaikal, and if we have time and can buy a ticket, we will take the international train back to Novosibirsk." Sveta said, "Peng, I really hope that you can take the international train back to Novosibirsk, by the way, do you want me to bring something?" I replied, "If you can bring it, bring it for me." Sveta said: "This is no problem, when you pass through Shenyang, you want your family to send it to the train station and hand it over to me." ”

After leaving the train station and finding a home, I stayed in the best hotel in Baikal. There was no telephone in the hotel room, so I had to go to the street to find a coin-operated phone and dial a phone to Valoga's house, and as soon as the phone rang, it was picked up by Valoga. Varroga said that his side had already loaded the old steel rails into the car last night, and was waiting for our call, and that he would leave immediately after a while, and that he would be able to reach Zabaikal at noon. Brother Chao called Sasha again, and Sasha said that he had contacted Tanya and would pick up the goods tomorrow.

After we rested in the hotel for a while, we saw that the time was about the same, and went to the post office, and Brother Chao called the domestic company, and Xiao Wang said on the phone that Ivan's goods had been cleared and transported to the warehouse, and the chemical company that signed a contract with us in the past two days would pick up the goods. The onions purchased by Shandong can go to Manchuria tomorrow, and Manager Chen, who is responsible for receiving the old steel rails, has already arrived in Manchuria today, and now he has just moved into the CITS Hotel. Brother Chao called Manager Chen again, asking him to immediately take the contract to the eighteen-mile port to find the customs clearance agency company that acted for us to clear the waste motor last time, and prepare to pick up the goods at the port in the afternoon, and we met at the port in the afternoon. Seeing that everything was arranged step by step, Brother Chao and I were relieved. After finding a café and having breakfast, we went back to the hotel to wait for Varoga.

Less than an hour after returning to the hotel, I suddenly heard a knock on the door, and Brother Chao and I looked at each other, there was no reason for Varoga to arrive so soon. Brother Chao asked, "Who is it?" An impatient voice came from outside the door: "Immigration, check your passport." "The law and order in Post-Baikal is relatively poor, and yesterday I heard Lao Song say in the international column that there are often incidents of Chinese masters being robbed here. So we didn't open the door right away, I carefully hung the anti-theft chain on the door, and then opened a crack to see two policemen in dark green uniforms standing in the door (the Russian police uniform is gray, and the immigration police uniform is dark green).

A policeman opened his documents and showed me through the crack in the door, I had no choice but to open the door, and when the policeman came in, they first checked our passports, visas and train tickets, and then one of them, who was supposed to be a captain, asked us, "What are you doing here?" Brother Chao replied: "Let's wait here for friends, and then go to Manchuria." The lieutenant officer asked, "How many days are you going to stay?" Brother Chao replied: "At most, one day, our friend will arrive at noon today." The captain then asked: "Your registered address is Novosibirsk, what are you doing in Novosibirsk?" Chao Ge replied, "We registered a company there and engaged in trade. The captain then asked: "Then why did you get your train ticket from Ulan-Ude to Zabaikal?" Brother Chao replied: "We are going on a business trip to Ulan-Ude." The captain nodded and asked, "Do you have a business trip certificate?" "Damn! Do you also need a business trip certificate when traveling in Russia? Isn't this similar to when we used to ask for a letter of introduction on a business trip? This time Brother Chao was stopped, and Brother Chao had no choice but to shake his head and say, "I didn't bring a business trip certificate." The captain said, "If you can't provide a business travel certificate, then you need to go with us to the immigration office for investigation, I suspect that your residence certificate is fake." Brother Chao took out 200,000 rubles from his body and handed it to the captain officer, who pushed Brother Chao's hand away, "Please put away your money." Brother Chao asked, "How much do you want?" We don't have time to go to immigration with you. Another policeman then said, "One hundred dollars each." This is simply a lion's mouth wide open, and Brother Chao said calmly: "Suskov of Novosibirsk. Mr. Vladimir is our friend, the former head of the Security Service, and we will go with you to the immigration office, and you can call Novosibirsk to investigate the identity of our company and the two of us, and you can also ask the Novosibirsk Security Service or the Migration Service about Suskov. Who are Mr. Vladimir and Mr. Petrovich? I can also call them and ask the Novosibirsk Migration and Security Service to call your office directly. The captain was a little unsure of what he was up to, looked at his colleague and said, "You go to the bureau and make a phone call and ask them to find out what he said about the Novosibirsk Suskov. Vladimir and Petrovich, and the situation with their company. So the policeman walked out. It seems that Brother Chao has calmed down this policeman all of a sudden.

After a while, the policeman came back and called the captain out of the room, the two of them whispered in the corridor for a while, the captain returned to the room, returned the passport and the ticket to us, and then said to Chao Ge: "Your friend and your company are fine, I hope you can leave Baikal on time, this is the border area, the inspection will be stricter, and I hope we can become friends." Brother Chao stuffed 200,000 rubles into the lieutenant officer's hand and said: "I invited you to have a cup of coffee with this money, my Russian name is Vanya, and I also hope that we can become friends, what is your name?" After taking the money, the captain shook hands with Brother Chao and replied: "My name is Valera, Captain Officer, and you can find me in Zabaikal if you have any trouble in the future." Brother Chao took out a business card and handed it to Valera and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you, if you go to Novosibirsk or Manchuria, I will arrange for you to be entertained." Valera took the card and said, "Thank you!" I may go to Manchuria and contact you when the time comes. And I want to know, how did you meet that friend? Your friend and that Mr. Petrovich are very powerful figures. Brother Chao replied: "Our company has long-term business cooperation with them. Valera took out a piece of paper, wrote a phone number and handed it to Chao Ge, "This is my phone number." Brother Chao took the phone and said, "Okay, I will call you when I go to Zabaikal in the future, and invite you to come out for a drink or two at that time, I can't invite you to drink today, and I will rush back to Manchuria this afternoon." ”

After the immigration police left, Chao Ge said: "The ghost place of Zabaikal is very strict with foreigners, and the police are black enough, fortunately I borrowed the name of the mafia, otherwise they would have extorted 200 US dollars, or they would have taken them to the immigration office for investigation, and if they did it for a few hours, they would have to pay a fine." I said, "Yes, we were taken away by them, and Varoga came and couldn't find us, what would they think?" "Brother Chao said;" In the future, if you come to Baikal often, you really need to have a good relationship with this policeman named Valera, even if we don't come, our company will send someone to deliver goods to Bart or pick up Valoga's goods, and we will try to pave the road for them. I nodded and said, "Brother Chao, you think far, doing business in Russia is either to deal with the mafia, or to deal with these police." ”

Last night I drank and chatted with Sveta and the others until late, and I got up too early in the international column this morning, and now Brother Chao and I are a little sleepy, so we lay down to rest, and as soon as my head sticks to the pillow, Brother Chao snores, and I fell asleep all at once. I was sleeping soundly when I suddenly heard a knock on the door, and I was the first to wake up and asked the door, "Who is it?" Outside the door came Valoca's voice: "It's me, Valoca." ”

The truck driver of the KAMAZ truck is still the same driver last time, we first went to lunch with Valroga and the driver, and then we checked the goods, and saw that there was no problem, and Brother Chao asked Valroga to go to the port for customs declaration. Brother Chao and I left the hotel room, took a taxi to the highway crossing, and found a transit minibus to sit on. In the afternoon, there were not many people who passed the customs, and we passed the customs smoothly to the eighteen-mile port. As soon as we got off the minibus at the gate of the port, we saw Manager Chen getting out of a Lada taxi parked on the side of the road, and Manager Chen told us that this was the taxi he had chartered, and he was waiting for us and the truck at the gate. Manager Chen said: "In the future, I will travel back and forth between the company and Manzhouli for a long time, and the company is applying for a multi-year round-trip visa for me, and a translator will be sent over soon." Brother Chao explained to him some things to pay attention to, and handed him the phone number of today's immigration officer Valera. Manager Chen continued: "The company is purchasing the second batch of onions, which will be shipped in a week. Brother Chao said, "Then I'll contact Bart later today and ask him to start preparing the wood." I also want him to arrange people and cars to come to pick up onions, before the timber is shipped, I will send Dapeng to check the ruler, if the timber is sent in large quantities in the future, someone needs to be resident there" Manager Chen nodded again and again and said: "Very good, Xiao Wang, you are well arranged." ”

We waited for about two hours, and the salesman of the customs clearance agency came out of the port and informed Manager Chen to pay the customs duties. Manager Chen followed the salesman into the port. After a while, the Kamaz van in Varoga drove out of the port. At this time, the scrap copper motorcycles that were parked on the side of the road and waiting for the rabbits swarmed up and followed behind the trucks. The last time I picked up the scrap motor, I couldn't move the huge amount of money in the CITS Hotel, and I didn't see how the truck driver brought the scrap copper entrainment in, so I really wanted to see it this time.

Our taxi followed the KAMAZ truck to the parking lot, and when the driver got out, the scrap copper vendors went on the offensive around the driver, and the last middle-aged woman, who was slightly pretentious, made an agreement with the driver. The driver dismantled and dismantled on the KAMAZ truck, tossing and turning for a while, as if by magic, a pile of scrap copper was piled up on the ground, and the middle-aged woman weighed it, seventy or eighty kilograms. After receiving the stack of money from the middle-aged woman, the driver happily gestured to us as a drinker, we shook our heads, and Varro said vigorously; "You can't get drunk today, you have to load tomorrow." However, in the evening, Varoga and the driver still drank a lot.

The next day, the onions arrived on time, and we sent the onions to Zabaikal in accordance with the customs declaration. After sending away the scrap rails with Manager Chen, we were lucky enough to book an international train ticket to Novosibirsk at the travel agency. I called home again and asked my family to send 50 ginseng to the international column.
