Chapter 122: Ardlov the Passionate
Wang Weidong and Yao Qiming didn't do what the middle-aged man said, he wanted to take Yao Qiming to the hotel that Ou Xiaoyang told him before leaving. In that guesthouse there were people from Vladivostok waiting for them, and then they took the two of them to the city that was strictly managed.
The Ussuri River flows from south to north, and the railway is also in a north-south direction, dividing the whole city into two parts, the western part of the city is larger, and the main government offices of the city, as well as hotels, stations, theaters, and cinemas are located in the west.
Wang Weidong wanted Yao Qiming to ask in Russian where the November 7 Hotel was, when he suddenly found that the woman who had arrived with them in a car from Grodekovo was still following them.
"Ask her if she knows where the November 7th Hotel is." Wang Weidong said to Yao Qiming.
Yao Qiming turned around and said a few words to the woman in Russian, and the woman replied a few words, Wang Weidong didn't understand anything, and he understood Davarich, who had just learned.
"This comrade said she knew she could take us there!" Yao Qiming said happily to Wang Weidong.
Wang Weidong hurriedly nodded and smiled at the woman to express his gratitude.
The woman walked in front and walked forward with two people, and the people on the street cast strange glances at Wang Weidong and the others. At this time, it was difficult to see foreigners in the cities of the Far East.
Fifty years ago, there were a few people whose ancestral roots were from China living here, but now none of them are visible.
After walking for twenty minutes, the woman led two men to a three-story building with a sickle and axe sign on it, which was the November 7th Hotel.
The woman led the two people directly into the hotel and said a few words in Russian to the people who received them at the hotel, and the woman turned back and said a few words to Yao Qiming.
"They asked for our documents and the business certificate issued to us by Vladivostok." Yao Qiming said.
Wang Weidong hurriedly took out his documents from his bag, and more importantly, the business certificate issued to them by the Vladivostok Fish Industry Company to Harbin City.
After reading the documents and business certificates of the two of them, the people at the hotel said a few words of Russian to Yao Qiming.
"They said that Comrade Adelov, who had come to pick us up from the fish company, had arrived, but now that he had something to do, they asked us if we were going to stay and wait for Comrade Adelov to come back." Yao Qiming asked Wang Weidong.
"Of course you have to stay." Wang Weidong said.
Yao Qiming hurriedly explained to the people in the hotel that the two of them wanted to stay.
It wasn't until the two of them went through the formalities that the people in the hotel were about to take the two people upstairs that the woman who brought them here said goodbye to Wang Weidong and Yao Qiming with confidence.
Yao Qiming loudly thanked the woman in Russian, and Wang Weidong also smiled and nodded to her.
Yao Qiming said with emotion while going upstairs: "The people here are really enthusiastic, and they are the same as before!" ”
Wang Weidong still smiled silently.
The double room has a toilet and a bathtub, but the facilities are a bit old. The waitress who led them upstairs into the room was dressed in a brightly colored bragi, or dress.
"Two comrades, you are welcome to stay in our hotel, dinner time is seven o'clock in the evening." The waitress smiled and said to the two men.
When Yao Qiming conveyed the waiter's words to Wang Weidong, Wang Weidong touched his stomach and said, "It's so late, I'm hungry for hours." ”
"They eat late for lunch, so late for dinner." Yao Qiming said with a smile.
He had been here more than 30 years ago, and now he felt like he was revisiting the old place.
"I studied Russian for four years at the Far Eastern University, and I've been to Twin Cities too, oh, by the way, we'd better call them Ussuriysk and Vladivostok in the future, and people here don't like the Chinese names we call them." Yao Qiming said.
"In such a big country and so much land, why is there not enough food, and it still needs to import food?" Wang Weidong said. He wasn't asking Yao Qiming questions.
Yao Qiming sighed and didn't answer, and he didn't have the answer to this question.
Now China exports grain to this country, which is a matter of pride for Chinese who have not had enough to eat for thousands of years.
Black Province now exports corn to the country every year as a feed ingredient.
This time, Wang Weidong came here to exchange soybean meal as feed for mentai fish.
The two waited until dinner at seven o'clock in the evening, and Adelov did not return.
Two people went downstairs to eat in the restaurant.
The waitress came over and whispered to the two of them if they were eating white or black bread.
"Eat black bread, black bread is more chewy!" Yao Qiming suggested to Wang Weidong.
Beetroot soup with bread is a meal, and there is also a toasted potato salad.
Wang Weidong had eaten Russian-style and Western food in Kazakhstan, so it was also smooth to eat this meal.
He had no intention of drinking with Yao Qiming, because when he participated in the study, he had been told that it would be difficult to buy wine after going abroad, not to mention that it would be difficult to buy liquor even wine. So Wang Weidong and these people were warned not to try to drink abroad!
The two of them returned to their rooms after eating, and if Adelov of the fish company returned, the people at the hotel would immediately tell him that the Chinese guests he was going to receive had arrived.
At about nine o'clock in the evening, the sound of banging on the door startled the two people lying in the room.
Wang Weidong reflexively bounced up from the bed, he walked quickly to the door and opened the door.
The person standing outside the door stumbled into the room, and Wang Weidong suddenly stretched out his hands to support the person's chest, so that the person would not fall to the ground.
"Welcome comrades from China!" The man muttered.
After Wang Weidong supported the man, he saw that there was a woman standing behind the man, tall and slender, reddish-brown hair, thick lips and upturned lips, and half a head taller than Wang Weidong.
At this time, Yao Qiming had already walked over.
In Russian, he asked: "You are Comrade Adelov, right?" ”
The man stretched out his hand to hold Yao Qiming's hand and said, "Hello, comrades from China, hello! ”
The heavy smell of alcohol sprayed over Wang Weidong's shoulder and onto Yao Qiming's face.
"Help him in!" Wang Weidong said.
One of them grabbed one of Adelov's arms and helped him to a chair, and the young woman followed in and sat in the other chair.
Wang Weidong saw that the person who had been waiting for a long time finally came, and habitually took out a cigarette, and only after taking it out did he realize that this was a foreign country.
But when Adelov saw the cigarette in front of him, he took the cigarette and put it under his nose and smoked the cigarette, looking intoxicated.
Adelov muttered a series of Russian, and Wang Weidong could only hear Hara Shao clearly.
Wang Weidong was afraid of violating the regulations, and this time he only brought five packs of cigarettes with him across the border, and when Adelov put a cigarette in his mouth, Wang Weidong hurriedly took out a lighter and lit it.
Adelov took out another cigarette and handed it to the woman next to him, and Wang Weidong hurriedly lit a cigarette for the young woman.
"This is my dear Comrade Lyudmila." Adelov drunkenly introduced.
