Chapter 446
Wang Qiqi followed the flow of people to the exit, looking at the dense crowd of people, Wang Qiqi deeply felt that she was going to faint, how can too many people converge with Shi Man, in the era of no mobile phone, it is really a problem to contact friends at any time.
Wang Qiqi opened her eyes wide and looked around, hoping to see a big sign with her name written on it, although it was a little ugly, but this was the only way to quickly get on the line with Shi Man, looking around a few times, Wang Qiqi said that she didn't see the sign with her Chinese and English names written on it, "No, Shi Man didn't come to pick him up." "Oh my God, how good is this, it's a question of whether to leave the airport or stay behind, but yesterday Shi Man said that he would come to pick him up after buying a train ticket, and it was impossible not to pick him up, could it be that there was something on the road or a traffic jam, which should be a relatively normal thing in the country of the automobile kingdom.
Wang Qiqi thought about it and waited for Shi Man at the exit of the station, she was now in a dilemma, "Wait for Man Man for two hours, if you can't wait, find a place to go on the Internet, and contact Feng Xuanxiang." "But I don't know where to go to rub the net, and I don't know if Feng Xuanxiang is in front of the computer now, it is said that the God of Wealth often goes out to wander, in this regard, Wang Qiqi deeply feels that he can't get out this time It's really a cup.
Wang Qiqi sat on the suitcase, holding a travelogue to read energetically, and her indifferent appearance left a deep impression on the tourists who came and went in a hurry and the people who picked up the airport, I really felt that Qiqi was too strange, how could she read in such a busy place, especially she could read it very interestingly, as if she was in the library.
Shi Man rushed to the airport panting and carrying her luggage, and saw Wang Qiqi nesting at the exit quietly reading a book, her heart was put down and lifted up, she knew that she was more than an hour late, but she really couldn't blame her.
Shi Man breathed a sigh of relief, slowly walked to Shi Man's side, and pushed her. "Kiki, Kiki."
When Wang Qiqi heard such a familiar voice, she raised her head and found that Shi Man's head was covered with sweat, "Did you encounter something on the road?" "How could it be otherwise?
Shi Man heard Wang Qiqi's words of concern, and knew that she was not angry, "Yes, I got off the train and took the bus over, who knew that there was a traffic jam on the road, I could have come a long time ago, and the traffic jam was blocked for two hours." "Along the way, Shi Man's heart is high. She was really worried that Wang Qiqi would leave first.
Wang Qiqi put the book in her bag, took out a handkerchief from the bag and handed it to Shi Man, a suitcase in each hand (and one is Shi Man's), "It's good to come, I was worried about whether you encountered something." ”
Shi Man took the handkerchief and wiped his sweat, "Let's go, let's go to the place where we live by car first, store our luggage, and then start walking." "New York, a name that I used to hear a lot, I didn't expect to set foot on this land this time.
Wang Qiqi snorted. "We're about to start our budget trip, are you ready?" This time, Wang Qiqi and the two of them studied for a long time and asked some people's experiences, and finally booked a short-term rental house. In fact, the price is about the same as the price of staying in a medium hotel, but the hotel does not come with a kitchen, and the private house has a kitchen, so you can travel outside. Food, housing and transportation are the bulk of the cost, and if there is a kitchen, Wang Qiqi can cook dinner by herself. Although it is a bit troublesome, the two of them don't have a lot of money in their hands, so they can only save as much as possible.
Shi Man nodded, "I've already figured out how to get to our temporary residence." "I have to say that it is quite convenient for the family to go out, of course, it is also thanks to the blessing of the New York subway that extends in all directions, otherwise just taking a taxi, Shi Man estimates that the wallets of the two people can shrink a lot.
In the next five days, Wang Qiqi and Shi Man took a general tour of New York and went to Columbia University, although it is now the summer vacation, but there are many students in the school who come and go, "I used to hear people say that it is easy for foreigners to go to college when I was in China, but now I see how serious people are." Wang Qiqi pointed to the students who came and went in a hurry, holding a lot of books in their hands, C University is also a good university in China, and many students in it still love to learn, not to mention the winter and summer vacations, even when they usually go to school, not many people can do such a step, otherwise they can attract everyone's attention by soaking in the school library often in Wang Qiqi.
Shi Man nodded, "It's easy for foreigners to go to college, but it's hard to graduate, but where are we, it's difficult to get into college, but once you enter college, many people are messing around." "In fact, the university is the most important, the most serious study time, but in the country is reversed, but there is no way, a lot of the content of the teacher, often and the reality is detached, plus now some famous professors have been involved in the work outside of teaching, the enthusiasm for teaching is not very enough, in this case, can be expected to students can put much focus on learning.
The two of them walked around the campus like idlers, and their leisurely attitude was the most untouchable, not to mention that they couldn't see it on the road, even Wang Qiqi and Shi Man felt very embarrassed, "Or let's go to Central Park on the side." In such a strong learning atmosphere, Wang Qiqi deeply felt that we were thieves who wasted time.
"Okay." Shi Man agreed, although he couldn't be admitted to the graduate school of Columbia University, but it didn't matter, when we came to the United States, there was time to come and walk.
Although not only from the Internet but also from the travelogues, you can know that Langdao Central Park is a big free park, but when Wang Qiqi and Shi Man entered this park, the two of them were really stunned, especially this park is located in Manhattan, and it is completely possible to know how much output value such a piece of land as Ludao will be if it is transformed into high-rise buildings, but New Yorkers have not touched the idea of this land, and it is also a free park.
Although it is summer, but because the greening of the park is in place, there are a lot of trees outside, Wang Qiqi and Shi Man do not feel very hot at all when they walk in the park, although it is a weekday, there are not many people in the park, but there can also often be dog lovers who take a walk with a dog, or a young parent who pushes a stroller out to see the scenery, or an old couple with gray hair, it doesn't matter if you are tired, there are often benches on the side of the road, even if you can't find a bench, it doesn't matter, Find a lawn to sit on the ground, all the way over, Wang Qiqi saw several groups of young people, it is likely that Columbia University students gathered together to chat or debate something, this is a scene that many parks in China can not see, too many tourist attractions in China are not lacking is tourists who come and go in a hurry, and there are people everywhere who take pictures to prove that they have visited here.
"It's so laid-back, I really want to find a place to lie down." Shi Man's pace became slower and slower along the way, as if he was worried that it would ruin the laid-back atmosphere of the entire park. "Next time we come, we'll bring something to eat and have a picnic with them." Shi Man pointed to the family of five sitting on the grass.
Wang Qiqi was speechless and could only look at the sky, "Are you in the capital?" "It's not the capital, you can come at any time when you have time, we are tourists, tourists have to be a bit of a tourist, how can there be a leisurely like this.
"Will there be such a big free park in the capital?" Shi Man thought to himself that if the capital was the center of the city, if such a large place was planted for everyone to relax, it was expected that it would have been demolished and turned into a commercial area or residential area, "The only place in the center of the capital that can have such a big place is the Forbidden City, but the Forbidden City also has to charge tickets." Shi Man estimated that if it weren't for this ancient building, it might have to be demolished.
"We will have a good time when we come to the United States next year, and we visited Columbia University and Central Park today, which can be regarded as a successful completion of the task." Wang Qiqi said in a slighted manner, originally I didn't visit Columbia University today, but it was already noon when the two of them bumped all the way to New York, and as soon as they found a place to live and put their luggage, they changed their plans to visit Columbia University and Central Park.
According to Shi Man's meaning, isn't college like that, she often goes to Massachusetts or Harvard University with Han Tao during her evening walks, but she didn't expect Columbia University to give her a different feeling, especially thinking that Central Park, which doesn't have much point to visit, is actually quite interesting, it's really a big mistake, but it's impossible for two people to spend more time in these two places, God knows if there is a more interesting place worth going deep in the future.
"I regret it, Kiki." Shi Man suddenly came out with such a sentence, although she said it was quite vague, but Wang Qiqi understood what she wanted to express, "I also regret it, but what can I do." ”
In fact, according to Wang Qiqi's current idea in this half month, he will stay in New York directly for an in-depth tour, even if half a month is a bit much, you can stay for eight days and ten days, and then go to Boston to see the world's top universities, even if you don't have the opportunity to study in this life, you have to come here for a trip and take some photos as a souvenir, but the question is that Wang Qiqi and Shi Man can regret it if they want to, because they have booked the hotel and train tickets they will stay in, and if they don't go, the loss will be big. "I now feel that the plan really can't be done in too much detail." The two of them just think that there can be a discount for booking a plane ticket in advance, so they will operate like this, and they know that they really shouldn't be able to do it, and now they don't get a refund.
Shi Man also thought so, but what could he do, he sighed, "Let's go back, let's come back for a good walk in the future, and go back to rest when we're tired." ”
In the next few days, especially in many museums and other places, Wang Qiqi deeply felt that it was really a visit, and there was no way to visit it quietly, that is, it was slightly better than traveling with a group.
Bitter step by step, stay up until the early hours of the morning, immediately go to the shopping cart to calculate the money and prepare to place an order, can not place an order can place an order can not pay can pay, but the thing is gone, this is only seven minutes to open, hard to death
