Chapter Twenty-Eight: Arrival

Returning to the cabin, Tang Shengxian has been very accustomed to so many times of "crossing", the last time he left in a hurry, many things were not put away, like these chemical books can never be discovered by others, they can only appear in Tang Shengxian's sight and space.

After a little tidying up, Tang Shengxian lay on the bed, even if he couldn't sleep, even if he didn't need to, close his eyes and take care of himself, half of the people on this ship were Chinese, they all paid an expensive or not expensive price to get a ticket to the United States, many of them lived in the bottom third class, their identity was laborers, they didn't know English, some just had strength, Tang Shengxian knew where these people were going to go in the end, when his factory started, he would go to find a few honest Chinese to work for him, No English is the best.

Today is January 10, 1938, and there are still nine days to come, and a party was held on the ship tonight, and Han Daxun's family was about to invite Tang Shengxian to the party, but Tang Shengxian refused without thinking about it. He is very unaccustomed to these parties, he is still used to being a little otaku quietly, and after arriving in the United States, in order to meet some celebrities, open up the market or something, it is almost the same to participate in the party.

The next few days were very common, except for the fact that they often met Han Xuexian when they went out to eat, the two still nodded when they met, but it could be seen that Han Xuexian still wanted to talk to Tang Shengxian, but out of female reserve, she didn't open her mouth, and Tang Shengxian didn't find out, even if she found out, she would only pretend not to know! Finally, a historic moment is coming.

There is still half an hour to go, people are gathered on the deck, waiting, Tang Shengxian did not go out, his things are all put away, he is now waiting for the docking, he has no heart to go outside to join in the fun, this kind of scene to be honest he has seen a lot, because this kind of movie has been made badly, there must be one of the people on the deck with the best eye, he will see the land before everyone, and then he will yell "American" and everyone will cheer.

But let them go. Sure enough, Tang Shengxian, who heard the cheers, thought so, and finally Tang Shengxian, who had been adrift on the boat for twenty-five days, stood on the hard cement floor with a box and did not make any waves in his heart, although he went back once, this is the Oakland Port of San Francisco, there are many freighters also docked here, it is very busy, Tang Shengxian did not look too much and walked towards the periphery of the port, and finally saw the yellow taxi, and rushed to the train station, he wanted to rush to Los Angeles, originally Tang Shengxian's destination was New York, However, New York is on the other side of the United States, and if Tang Shengxian wants to go, he will have to travel through the whole United States, so if he thinks about it, he should take a train to Los Angeles, which is closer.

When I arrived at the train station, I spent five dollars on a ticket for the last VIP car to Los Angeles. Tang Shengxian sat in the waiting room and waited for the bus. There is still an hour to come, and this time is boring, Tang Shengxian pretends to open the box and actually takes out a hardcover novel from the space to pass the time.

In order to save time, Tang Shengxian was not going to do repairs in San Francisco, he was going to Los Angeles to settle down again, and the Han family invited him to prepare to act together on the ship, Tang Shengxian of course refused, and if he acted with them, he would waste several days.

A black old-fashioned steam train slowly approached the station, this is the train that Tang Shengxian was waiting for, put the book in the box, Tang Shengxian boarded the train, it is said that this is not the first time Tang Shengxian has come to the United States, the last time the plane also landed at the airport in San Francisco, but the time of the two times is different.

Found his own separate carriage, Tang Shengxian put down his things, turned around and closed the door of the carriage, although it was a single ticket, this carriage had two wooden leather chairs facing each other, it was very comfortable to sit on, between the two seats was a table, a table with some large non-foldable dining table, I don't know what kind of wood it was, and put the box on the table. The journey is the most difficult, Tang Shengxian thinks so, especially the journey during the Republic of China, but there is no other way, the biggest pastime for Tang Shengxian is to read novels.

If you don't deliberately pay attention to time, time flies quite fast, because the terminal station is Los Angeles, Tang Shengxian is not afraid of sitting in the station, so he put all his body and mind into the world of the novel, when he saw half of the second book, the train also drove to Los Angeles, it was already dark at the moment, Tang Shengxian hurriedly got off the train, walked out of the station, followed the street lamp and found a few hotels, Tang Shengxian, who was physically and mentally exhausted, chose one to go through the accommodation procedures, and came to the room with the key, Tang Shengxian was ready to go to bed without even turning on the light, although his body had been strengthened to a certain extent, but after all, it had not reached the point of inhumanity, he would still be tired, he didn't want to eat when he was tired, he just wanted to sleep when he was tired.

Early the next morning, Tang Shengxian came to his senses, and the lost spirit seemed to be replenished in one night, but Tang Shengxian was not in a hurry to get up, he was thinking in bed, thinking about today's itinerary, thinking about what to do in the next stage, it seemed a little unrealistic to think about it on the boat, yes, how could it be possible to make a good plan without really understanding?

Tang Shengxian, who didn't come up with anything substantial, still got up, and he was going to find a place to live before returning the room here.

Tang Shengxian came to the street, there are not many people on the street at the moment, yesterday was in a hurry, he didn't pay much attention to the surrounding environment, Tang Shengxian's arrival did not attract too many people's attention, there are more and more Asians in the United States, and there are many students from China in the universities here, compared to twenty or thirty years ago, these students do not have braids, and they also wear suits and ties.
