The next morning.

Chen Rui got up early in the morning, washed up briefly, and ate breakfast.

The tour guide took Chen Rui to the railway station in Kaesong, the train station is very old, the walls are painted with white ash, there is no glass, there is no LED display board, there is no directional arrow that we commonly see in public places, and the green luminous sign of the safety exit, at a glance, a piece of earth gray, no other color,.

If you remove the word "Korean" and ignore the Korean script, Kaesong Station is no different from any small hill station in China.

The train station is full of worship of the Kim family and his son, and the walls are full of portraits of the three generations of the Kim family, 'Long live General Kim Jong Il, the sun of the 21st century!' ''President Kim Il Sung will always be with us!'' The slogans of "Kim Jong-un how to be," like psoriasis advertisements on telephone poles in China's small and medium-sized cities, and these, along with the statues of leaders and eternal towers scattered throughout North Korea, the main ideological buildings, as well as North Korean books, television, radio, and even all paper documents, and the propaganda of the personality cult of three generations of the Kim family, formed the basis of the Kim dynasty's rule over North Korea, which has a population of 25 million.

In the morning, at half past 10 o'clock, Chen Rui finally got on the train, the North Korean train was very broken, very, very broken, and the green train was just that, and the outer skin of the carriage was rusted off from the inside like the North Korean house, and then painted with a layer of green paint, it looked like the whole train was bulging as if it was going to fall off at any time.

The carriage in which Chen Rui sits is specially designed to transport international friends, so there are private compartments, similar to domestic sleeper carriages. On each side there are three or four wide seats, though. This lying train is also ridden by North Koreans. They had already boarded the train, but were isolated in other compartments.

The carriages of ordinary North Koreans are no different from those of Chinese hard seats, and they are also very crowded.

The train departed.

Sitting on the train, there is no Internet, no one chats, because a political commissar is next to it, chatting with the tour guide is not very interesting, if you listen to the tour guide talk one by one. 'North Korea is a great country', 'Kim Il Sung, Kim Jong Il is the sun of North Korea, guiding us in the direction of progress', 'Kim Jong-un leads us to happiness', over and over again, you can't show impatience on your face, you will also feel very bored.

Chen Rui only tilted his head and looked at the scene outside the window, which can be regarded as passing the time.

North Korea's houses are not as backward as we thought. Broken and very clean. Very neat, however, all the houses are a mold, no matter how many floors of the house, all gray and white cement walls, the skin folds are uneven, as if the bulging or mildew is randomly brushed with a layer of pulp, there is no air conditioning outdoor unit and the like, do not seal the balcony, but there are a few pots of flowers, people feel scared, for fear that someone will die after the wind.

Many houses are painted with slogans such as "How is Kim Il Sung, How is Kim Jong Il, How is Kim Jong Un", just like in rural China in the 80s, which was similar to "If you want to be rich, have fewer children and plant more trees; If you want to make a hair, raise fish, pigs and ducks. "'The prosperity of the country is the responsibility of the husband;' slogan.

The train passed through Kaesong, and outside the window, it was the countryside of North Korea.

Like Kaesong, the countryside of North Korea does not give people the feeling of a 'natural village', because almost all the houses in the villages are new, and the houses in the villages look almost the same, unlike the natural villages in China, where each village has new houses, old houses, and all kinds of houses, and you can see the traces of the natural development of the village.

Before Chen Rui entered North Korea, he learned that North Korean housing is allocated by the state for free, although it saves a lot of expenses, but you can only obey the distribution, there is no choice, and individuals have no right to build their own houses.

North Korea is literally full of crops, even the small ditches by the railway, which are full of rice and corn, but many North Koreans are still hungry because the yield is not determined by the area under cultivation

It's a little boring, in fact, it's not much to see, the same villages, the same houses, the same North Korean peasants, after watching for a long time, you will also be tired.

At more than 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the tour guide pushed Chen Rui's lunch with a small cart.

A box of dishes, quite a lot of dishes, cucumber spicy sauce, pickled radish, fried fish pieces, pork slices, egg rolls, cabbage pickles, a box of rice and a bottle of mineral water.

The food is cold, and it seems that North Koreans like to eat cold rice.

Chen Rui began to eat.

Yesterday's pork, today's pork, and the pork that Chen Rui ate in North Korea are all a little sweet.

After eating.

It just so happened that the commissar was not there, and I don't know where to go.

Chen Rui asked two tour guides about 'North Korean secrets', and Chen Rui asked whether Kim Jong-un would reform! After all, Kim Jong-un studied in Switzerland and was exposed to Western ideas and political systems. The little girl was surprised and asked repeatedly, "Who said that?" Where did it say? "Obviously, they haven't mentioned these things in their country, and the North Korean government and government must be hiding more than that.

So, Chen Rui didn't ask these 'North Korean secrets' questions, Chen Rui asked them how much food the North Korean people had a day, and the little girl and the old tour guide bit their ears for a while and said, 700 grams.

Chen Rui asked: Does North Korea have private cars? It was the turn of the old tour guide to answer, there was! When asked about the price, the two bit their ears for a while, and finally replied to Chen Rui that it was $7,000.

Chen Rui continued to ask a question, whether there is private self-employment in North Korea, the little girl categorically said that there is none, and all businesses are state-run. Chen Rui pointed out that there were many stalls selling things on the side of the road, obviously private vendors, and the little girl repeated the statement that there is no private economy in North Korea and everything is a state-run business, but the voice is much quieter, and the North Korean people must be well aware of this incident, but the state asked her to lie.

Subsequently, the little girl and Chen Rui talked about North Korea's free policy: "free medical care" (no matter if you are seriously ill), "housing allocation" (according to the status of Pyongyang citizens, each family can be allocated 60-180 square meters of housing, but, the building has 10 rooms and one ladder), and education is free (4 years of primary school, 6 years of middle school, 6 years of middle school and high school, but in the third grade, you have to choose the direction of study, study for half a day in the morning, and go to the Children's Palace for training in the afternoon), which may be the only thing that North Koreans are proud of.
