After the tour guide took his seat, the minibus suddenly fell silent.

People sit in their seats, looking at the green mountains and green waters, red flowers and green leaves on both sides of the highway, as well as the blue sky in the distance, and flocks of birds flying in the sky from time to time.

I don't know how long it took, about three hours, and the minibus quietly drove into a service area of the highway.

After the bus stopped in the parking lot of the service area, the tour guide Xiao Luo picked up the microphone on the car and informed the tourists:

"Friends, the car is now in the service area. The time that the car stays in the service area is about fifteen minutes. Friends who need to relieve their hands, drink drinks, and shop can get out of the car and walk around, and at the same time can move their bodies. ”

"Ah——, 'Take pictures of the sights, get in the car to sleep, get out of the car and pee'! Excuse me, are we still in Belgium? ”

After Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, woke up from his sleep, he yawned for a long time, and then jokingly said a word about traveling abroad, and then turned his face to the tour guide and asked.

"Hahahaha——! Get in the car and sleep, get out and pee! Mr. Liu, don't ask where it is, you get out of the car and pee! ”

Among the tourists in the car, someone made a joke to Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong.

"Based on the mileage traveled by the car, we should now enter the Netherlands."

Listening to the jokes told by the tourists, the tour guide Xiao Luo smiled happily.

After answering Mr. Liu's question, she talked to the bus driver in French, and then turned around and continued to say to Mr. Liu and other tourists:

"Friends, just now, I asked the driver, our minibus has now entered the Netherlands for more than 100 kilometers!"

"Ouch, in the past two days, we have gone from France to Luxembourg, from Luxembourg to Belgium, and now from Belgium to the Netherlands, why haven't we seen their customs, not their borders? Is there no customs and no borders between these countries? ”

Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, raised a new question to Xiao Luo.

"Oh, of course there are borders. It's just that the countries of Western Europe no longer have obvious national gates and customs between countries. On your first day in Paris, I told you that as early as more than 20 years ago, the European Union had achieved borderless navigation, communications, customs clearance, postal clearance, marriage, currency and so on.

In a word, all Western European countries, with the exception of Britain, have long achieved political and economic integration.

Between them, tangible borders have long since been abolished.

To go from one country to another, people don't need to go through any formalities!

In the same way, like all of you, you come from China, and on the territory of Western Europe, except for the United Kingdom, as long as you have a tourist passport of one country, you can travel to any country in the European Union.

In other words, the countries of the European Union have taken the lead in realizing a regional global village life. ”

"Oh, that is, dozens of countries in the European Union are now like one country, right?"

Shandong Dahan Liu always interjected and asked.

"Yes, in the EU countries, it is indeed a country now! Otherwise, how can we take the euro with us and go all over Western Europe? These are the benefits of EU integration. ”

The tour guide Xiao Luo nodded in affirmation of Mr. Liu's question.

"Oops, that's so convenient! It seems that Western Europeans are smart, and there are no customs between countries!

How can this be like in our country, between provinces, and even between cities and counties, and some are still engaged in local protectionism! In many cities, only locally produced cigarettes are allowed to be sold in shops, or only locally produced liquor is allowed to be sold. Speaking of which, it really makes people laugh and cry! ”

Mr. Liu, a big man in Shandong, expressed his inner thoughts with emotion.

"Okay, friends, you can get off the bus. After sitting in the car for so long, I suggest everyone go down and take a walk, and by the way, relax your hands and feet. ”

The tour guide Xiao Luo saw that the bus driver was about to get off, so he no longer talked to Mr. Liu.

When the car door opened, the tour guide Xiao Luo got out of the car first.

So, the tourists in the car followed her downstream, and the goal was highly consistent:

It's all a quick stride towards the toilets in the service area!

It is worth mentioning here that in the motorway service areas of Western Europe, the toilets built are basically the same pattern:

After entering the main building of the service area, enter the entrance from a gate in the main body, and the entrance is the men's toilet to the left and the women's toilet to the right.

In front of the wall facing the main entrance is usually a small square table.

On the small square table, there is usually a plastic basin or a plastic box.

Anyone who enters the entrance to use the toilet must consciously throw a 0.50 euro sanitation fee inside.

If you don't have change on you, only whole money. Then, you can retrieve the change from the container yourself when you throw the whole money into the plastic box.

Because, at the entrance of the toilet, no one collects money, and whether to pay or not depends on the consciousness of tourists.

In this way, among the toilet people who come to the toilet, it is inevitable that some unconsciously tourists will fish in troubled waters:

Some of them didn't pay the sanitation fee, so they secretly followed other tourists into the toilet;

There are also people who throw a 0.50 euro coin into a container and then take out a 0.50 euro coin to show that they have paid the sanitation bill.

It is said that many of the tourists who exhibit this behavior are Chinese!

Supposedly, 0.50 euros isn't too much, right?

However, there are those shrewd Chinese who will use the exchange rate of the euro and the yuan to calculate, one euro is equal to about 8.20 yuan, according to this exchange rate, 0.50 euros is not equal to 4.10 yuan?

In all fairness, peeing costs 4.10 RMB, which is really expensive!

If this is calculated, then the one in Brussels who is less than cheap, who pees non-stop 24 hours a day, really doesn't know how much to pay!

Oh –

That's right!

Although Xiao Lian pees non-stop 24 hours a day, he only needs to pay 0.50 euros in this life!

Why?

Because, in Western Europe, you pay for the toilet on a per-occasion basis, and you are only charged 0.50 euros for urinating once.

Xiao Lian only pees once in his life, so he only needs to pay 0.50 euros!

Having said that, after the members of the "Golden Autumn Troupe" peed in the service area, I don't know if everyone paid the fee; Anyway, after getting out of the toilet, some people went to the bar to buy coffee, some people went to the counter to buy snacks, and some people went to the bookshelf to look at the books on display.

Among the books displayed on the shelves, in addition to books such as scenery introductions and scientific and technological knowledge, most of the rest are printed with male and female genitalia, or books printed with men and women in bed in love.

After Mengdu and Liping came out of the toilet, they first went to the bar and bought two coffees and two small plates of desserts.

After buying coffee and dessert, they sat down at a small table and began to taste.

After eating dessert, Mengdu saw that the bus driver was still drinking coffee on the stool in front of the bar, so he hurried up and led Liping to the bookshelf near the corner.

As soon as I arrived at the bookshelf, the first thing I saw in my dream was a book with male and female genitalia printed on it!

In an instant, Mengdu's eyes immediately turned into bells!

He strode over to the bookshelf and reached for the book without hesitation.

However, I never dreamed that the sales staff in the service area had already taken precautions.

When he picked up a book with male and female genitalia, he realized that he couldn't open it at all.

It turned out that on the shelves here, all the books that belonged to the pornographic category were sealed by the salesman with plastic film.

In front of such a book, either, you can only look at the image on the cover; Otherwise, you'll have to pay for it before you can tear off the plastic film and watch it as you please.

After dreaming that he couldn't flip through the books in his hand, he came to the cash register very simply.

"Harrow ——!"

Yumeto greeted a white and chubby blue-eyed lady at the counter, and then, taking out a twenty-euro bill from his pocket, handed it to Miss Blue-Eyed without hesitation.

"Harrow ——!"

The blue-eyed cashier greeted Mengdu warmly, and after she looked at the book in Mengdu's hand, she took out a five-euro bill from the drawer and politely handed it to Mengdu.

"Hey, Mengdu, why did you buy this kind of book? Haven't you seen enough of this on the TV in your hotel? ”

After Liping waited for Mengdu to leave the cash register, she ran to Mengdu's side and complained to him softly.

"Ahem, what's all the fuss about? Isn't this kind of book put out just for sale? Since he can put it up for sale, why can't I buy it? Don't yell at you, okay? As for me, that's all it takes. When you encounter such a thing in the future, please don't be surprised! Do you hear that? ”

Mengdu listened to Liping's complaint, not only was he not ashamed, but glared at her disdainfully.

Listen –

"I'm just a good person!"

W-What is this called?

How could a young man say such a thing?

Previous –

Mengdu wasn't that kind of person before!

Liping was choked by her husband for a long time and couldn't speak, and her legs stopped in place unconsciously.

'Hey——, get in the car!' Members of the Golden Autumn Troupe, everyone is on the bus! ”

At this time, at the gate of the main building of the service area, the call of the tour guide Xiao Luo came.

So, Liping lifted her legs weakly, turned around and walked towards the tour guide Xiao Luo.

After a while, all the members of the Golden Autumn Regiment got on the bus.

So, the minibus continued to move quickly towards today's destination, Amsterdam.

After driving, Mengdu immediately opened the colored book he had just bought, turned page after page, and read it hungrily, completely ignoring the depressed mood of his wife Liping next to him.

Alas——!

I really didn't expect that when I fell in love with this dream, the one who often talked about it was either Einstein or Edison; It's not Chopin, it's Tchaikovsky; Or Van Gogh, Gorky, Ba Jin, Mao Dun, etc., and sometimes celebrities such as Sun Yat-sen and Zhan Tianyou.

At that time, what was the feeling of him?

It's because his knowledge is broad and broad!

It is his temperament that is noble and elegant!

And now?

Now, how can he ——?

Listening to the sound of "huh" when Mengdu flipped through the colored books on the side, Liping was in a very complicated mood and very irritable!

However, she couldn't blame Mengdu in the car.

Because, Liping is worried that when she is looking through the colored books in her dreams, she will be seen by the companions in the car!

If you are seen by your companions, it will be even more face-saving!

Therefore, Liping could only exhale for a long time with her head down, and at the same time, she had to use her body to block the sight of others.

It's really hard for her!

Fortunately, as the minibus moved smoothly, after a while, the companions on the bus gradually began to doze off.

At this time, Mengdu was still looking through the colored book with great interest, and from time to time, he stretched out his dishonest hand and touched a few handfuls of Liping's body indiscriminately.

As time passed, Yumeto's novelty for colored books began to wane, and at the same time he was hypnotized by the rhythmic progress of the car, and slowly, at last, he was seen leaning his head back on the high back of his seat, and a sound gradually sounded in his nostrils.

The colored book he had bought in the service area also slid out of his palm and fell on the bottom of the car with a "click".

Hearing the noise, Liping turned her head and saw that the dream had begun to doze off, and the colored book had fallen on the bottom of the car.

So, she hurriedly bent down to pick up the book, and her eyes subconsciously quickly swept around.

Fortunately, the people in the car were almost asleep.

Liping hurriedly stuffed the book into her kun bag, and then leaned her head back on the chair with peace of mind, and gradually dozed off.
