Then Pantselovna recalled with great interest what happened to her in China.

As she spoke, two standard Chinese words popped out of her mouth, such as the name of a place and the name of a person.

When Pantselovna heard the specific meaning of Wang Weidong's name, she suddenly realized: "It turned out to be Weidong, not Vertong!" It means to defend the revolution, and your name is good! ”

After more than an hour of talking, Wang Weidong got up and prepared to leave.

Pentelovna said: "I very much welcome comrades from China to live here, but I will only entertain you with potatoes dipped in salt." ”

Hearing the old lady say this, Wang Weidong changed his mind and decided to live here.

The house that the government of the northern powers awarded to Pantselovna and her husband was very large, with three floors of more than 300 square meters.

It seems that the furniture in the room is provided by the government, and although it is still sturdy and durable, it is very old.

Due to her age, usually Pantselovna lived on the first floor, the second and third floors were empty, and for a long time no one cleaned and dusted.

Wang Weidong took out 30,000 rubles, that is, nearly 200 US dollars, handed it to Konstantin and said: "You go out with Da Yin Wan, and buy rice, bread, macaroni, beef, eggs, and onions!" ”

Konstantin glanced at Wang Weidong deeply, turned around and left.

Wang Weidong began to clean the rooms on the second and third floors alone.

A room on the third floor was full of books, Wang Weidong looked through them, they were all books on aerodynamics and fluid mechanics, and there was a picture frame on the wall of a picture of a middle-aged man with glasses.

This man is supposed to be Panzelovna's husband, the photo of the man who died at the rocket launch site.

Konstantin and Da Yin Wan are back, bringing back a whole bunch of things.

Pantselovna's face was not very good-looking, and she felt that Wang Weidong's actions had hurt her self-esteem.

"Today I'm going to cook, potatoes and beef!" Wang Weidong said.

Wang Weidong decided to make a pot of Chinese-style braised beef, stir-fried sugar and simmer over low heat, and then add potato wedges.

Russians like to stir-fry white rice in butter or curry before eating, and this time Wang Weidong served white rice.

Today there were three people to eat with her, the house was lively, and Pantselovna was very happy.

Konstantin also bought a few bottles of wine, and filled four wine glasses, and Pantselovna solemnly picked up the wine glass and said: "We are not pursuing a little pitiful and selfish happiness, our happiness belongs to tens of millions of people!" Our cause is not illustrious for a while, but it will always be there! Tears will be shed by those who are noble in the face of our ashes! ”

When Pentelovna first began to recite this famous passage of the great thinker, Wang Weidong was stunned at first, he had read this passage aloud when he was an educated youth, but it had been too long and he had forgotten it a little.

Before eating, Pantselovna was like an evangelist, and Wang Weidong and the three of them all held their wine glasses and listened quietly.

Wang Weidong squinted and saw that the corners of Konstantin's mouth actually showed a smile.

After reciting this paragraph, Pantselovna solemnly clinked glasses with the three people one by one, and the four of them raised their glasses and dried them up.

Because of Pentelovna's actions before the meal, Wang Weidong and the three of them looked very restrained when eating.

After a week on the train, all three of them were so tired that they all found rooms to rest after eating. Da Yin Wan and Konstantin slept in the room on the second floor, and Wang Weidong slept in the room on the third floor.

All three of them slept for more than a dozen hours to recover, and only woke up the next morning.

Old lady Pantselovna had already prepared bread and vegetable soup for them.

During the meal, the three of them discussed going out for a while, and Pantselovna said in a low tone: "You must be careful not to step on the old man who is freezing to death on the street!" ”

The police in the northern countries should literally be called militia, while police stations and police stations should literally be called security (bureaus).

In his office, Pantsev heard someone come in to report that a man named Verton had come from Vladivostok to look for him.

"Put all the money away!" Pantsev said to a few people in the office.

When he saw Wang Weidong, Pantsev looked very happy, he first hugged Wang Weidong affectionately, and then shook hands with Konstantin and Da Yin Wan.

"Verton, you're finally here! Today I'm going to invite the three of you to a big dinner! Pantsev said.

Pantsev drove the three of them to dinner, and he said to Wang Weidong, who was sitting in the passenger seat: "I really didn't expect you to come, Verton, my friends in Vladivostok in the past two years have said that you did a good job there, and I thought you wouldn't come." ”

"Of course I will come, I do business in this country, if I don't come to Moscow, I don't know the country yet." Wang Weidong replied.

He looked out the window of the car at the street, where billboards were erected by world-renowned companies, and felt that the country had been occupied by the West in less than a year.

Walking into a luxuriously decorated restaurant, Wang Weidong was immediately shocked by the luxury and people inside.

Beneath the huge crystal chandelier is crowded with people eating side by side.

It seems that although there are still people who are freezing to death and starving to death on the road in the big northern countries, many people have become rich rapidly.

When Pantsev ordered roast suckling pig and caviar, Wang Weidong looked at Pantsev in surprise, this guy actually spent so much money to invite him to dinner today!

Pantsev raised his glass and said to Wang Weidong: "Cheers to our friendship and future cooperation!" ”

Wang Weidong felt that Pantsev's hospitality was not mainly for friendship, but for the purpose of cooperating with him to make money in the future.

Pantsev approached Wang Weidong and asked in a low voice, "Vertong, did you bring a large number of Chinese goods with you this time?" If you bring it, hide it immediately! ”

"No, you know me, except for exchanging goods with the Vladivostok Fishing Company with better quality clothing and grain, I don't sell goods in the big northern countries." Wang Weidong replied.

Pantsev smiled and patted Wang Weidong on the shoulder and said, "Yes, Mr. Verton is a big businessman!" ”

Seeing that Wang Weidong was still puzzled by the question he had just asked, Pantsev explained: "We are going to take action immediately, and those low-quality goods that are transported to Moscow by plane and rail will be confiscated and destroyed in a centralized manner!" ”

When Wang Weidong heard Pantsev say this, his heart couldn't help but tremble.

Many of those who brought large quantities of goods to Moscow with the dream of making a fortune soon lost their money.

"Verton, what do you need my help with this time in Moscow?" Pantsev asked.

"I'm staying here for a while, learning more about your country, and then deciding what to do next." Wang Weidong replied.
