Brother Chao and I sorted out the articles and materials for a morning, and many things need to be implemented by me in contact with China. At noon, Sasha came back from the police station and handed me a certificate, "You need to wait for three days for your residence registration, now install the certificate issued by the Foreign Affairs Office of this police station, don't go out for a few days, wait for the passport to come back, and then go out, so as to save the trouble of the police checking the passport and explaining." "Okay, then I'll sort out the materials in the office and get familiar with the work during this time." Russia has continued the foreigner's residence registration system during the Soviet era, and if you don't go to the foreign affairs office of the police station to register your residence within three days of arriving at a place, once you are checked, you will be deported from the country, so the first thing Sasha did this morning was to take my passport, visa and train ticket to the police station to register my residence.

"I'm hungry, let's go downstairs to eat in the cafeteria, and then go to our dormitory." Brother Chao said to us. There is a public canteen downstairs in the company office, with several rows of simple wooden tables and chairs, and at one end of the canteen is the kitchen, and there is a row of glass counters outside the kitchen facing the hall, where plates of food, cut bread and several large stainless steel buckets are placed in the buckets, and there are several waitresses standing in the counter, and a row of railings are installed at a distance of one meter outside the counter. We went in through the entrance of the railing, and each of us took a tray and a knife and fork from the counter, and I asked for a beetroot soup, a pan-fried chicken thigh with mashed potatoes, a bread, and a glass of canpote (a type of water boiled with dried fruit), and settled the bill with Chao Ge at the exit of the railing. Thinking about eating these things every day in the future, I feel that I will soon become a real old man.

After lunch, Sasha drove us to the dormitory, which is a youth apartment very close to the company. Youth apartments are similar to student dormitories, which are specially prepared by the government for young people who do not have their own homes, with a common kitchen, bathroom and toilet, ordinary rooms are the same as student dormitories, the rent is very low, very suitable for young people who have just joined the workforce, young Russians prefer to live independently, so it is difficult to find a room in a youth apartment. Because there are no suitable houses for rent around the company, Sasathorn Guò bribed the administrator to find us a suite with a bathroom on the third floor of the youth apartment, but there is no separate kitchen, and cooking needs to go to the common kitchen.

Chao Ge arranged for me to stay in the dormitory in the afternoon, settle my belongings, clean the room, buy some food, and then prepare dinner, Chao Ge and Sasha came over to eat together.

After I packed up my belongings, I carefully cleaned the room from the inside to the outside, washed my dirty clothes and dried them on the balcony, and after doing this, I made a cup of tea, and I sat on the sofa in the living room while drinking tea and thinking about how to prepare dinner. I know that Brother Chao can't cook, and he should have been eating at Sasha's house or eating in the cafeteria during this time, I don't think there will be any food in the dormitory, and when I open the refrigerator, the vacuum inside is empty. I also don't know how to cook, but before I went abroad, I specially asked my mother to teach me, and now I can only deal with making some simple meals, it seems that tonight I have to catch the duck on the shelves to be a chef, and then I think about it, not only today, but this difficult task in the future is mine.

I got dressed and put on my backpack, locked the door, and went downstairs, I saw a fat middle-aged woman sitting in the duty room at the gate of the youth apartment. "Hello! I'm Peng, and I've just come from China. I said hello to her, "Hello! My name is Zoya, Vanya has already greeted me, you are welcome, let me know if you need anything. "Thank you, it's a little gift for you." I took out a bag of jasmine tea from my bag and gave it to Zhuoya, "Thank you, my good people, you Chinese are really good, Vanya also often gives me some of your Chinese gifts, I like them very much, may God bless you!" After saying that, Zoya drew a cross on his chest. Zhuoya, can you tell me where there is a grocery store? "You go out and go to the right, there is a grocery store less than a kilometer, but there is nothing there, you go to the market to buy food, there are more choices." After Zhuoya finished speaking, she walked out of the duty room and stood at the gate of the youth apartment, telling me in detail how to go to the grocery store and the market. The market was a bit far away, and I thought that Sasha told me not to go out without a passport, so I decided to go to the grocery store today to buy some random food, but fortunately I brought a lot of food from China.

The weather was fine, the afternoon sun was shining warmly, and there were a few old ladies basking in the sun sitting on the benches in the empty field below the residential buildings, and I greeted them very politely.

The leaves of the birch forest have turned yellow, under the blowing of the autumn wind, from time to time there are fallen leaves falling from the top of the head, walking in the birch forest, the fallen leaves under the feet make a rustling sound, looking at the path paved with fallen leaves in front of me, at this time I feel that I am in a still oil painting, a beautiful bird flies over the top of my head and falls on the branches in front of me, attracting me to stop and watch.

"Hello, young man!" Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind me, startling me, and when I looked back, I saw that it was an old Russian man wearing a shabby coat standing behind me, emitting a pungent smell of alcohol. I couldn't help but feel a little nervous, "Hello! Is there anything you can do? "Are there any cigarettes?" Give me one. The old man put his trembling fingers to his mouth and made a gesture of smoking, "Sorry, I don't smoke." Seeing that he was just asking me for cigarettes, I relaxed a little, and the old man stretched out a hand in front of me again, "Good man, then give me some money to buy a roast bar." "I really met a drunkard, and I was afraid that he would be entangled, so I took out a thousand rubles from my pocket and handed it to him, "God bless you, my good man!" The old man drew a cross on his chest, and by this time I had no intention of admiring the view, and trotted out of the birch forest.

The grocery store is not big, with only one saleswoman. As Zhuoya said, the shelves were empty, only potatoes, onions, bags of flour and some canned fish, bread and milk products on the counter, some frozen chicken thighs in the freezer, I asked for some potatoes, onions and frozen chicken thighs, and I asked for bread, I felt that something was missing, and asked the salesperson if there were any eggs? The salesperson took out a box of eggs from under the counter that didn't look very fresh and handed it to me, and I waved my hand and didn't ask for it.

I walked out of the grocery store with these foods, thinking that Russian supplies were too scarce, and it seemed that Xiao Liu's decision to bring a lot of food was very correct.
