50s: Starting with a storage ring

Chapter 208 Returning Home After Thousands of Miles
Sun Zhiwei still felt a little regretful. It was winter and there was snow all along the way, which became boring after a long time.

If it is summer, the scenery along the way will be very beautiful.

He also thought that he would find an opportunity to take Tong Jiajia to ride this world's longest train line across the Eurasian continent again, of course, in the autumn.

At that time, we will travel for three consecutive days and nights on the distant Siberian plains, seeing the snow-capped mountains, birch forests, blue lakes, colorful skies, country houses, and glacial rivers. What a pleasant trip that will be.

Unfortunately, there is nothing now, only a vast snowfield.

In the evening of 5 days later, Sun Zhiwei arrived at a station next to Lake Baikal. The train had to add water and coal here and wait for a while before it could set off again.

Anyone who wanted to get off the bus did so. Sun Zhiwei didn't dare. The winter clothes he brought with him were no match for the Siberian cold, and going down would be torture.

There were also dozens of Vietnamese students studying in Moscow on the train. The climate there is tropical and subtropical all year round, and they rarely see snow in their lifetime.

Now they were in a snowy field, so they had some fun. They got off the car to buy the local famous Lake Baikal fried fish.

A few hours later, the train was refueled with water and coal and set off again.

Before the train had gone very far, there was a commotion in the carriage. It turned out that one of the international students who had just gotten off the train to buy fried fish had not gotten back on.

The captain of the Yue team quickly contacted the train attendant, who then contacted the conductor, who then contacted the dispatcher.

Finally, Sun Zhiwei met the left-behind international student at the next train station.

At this time, he was pale and his legs were trembling as he held the leader's hand and got on the train.

After people came up, everyone learned that after the Russians knew that people were left behind, they directly sent a helicopter to take people from Lake Baikal Station to this station.

Putting aside the quality of delivery, the delivery efficiency of Russia is still very high.

Sun Zhiwei knew the Russian helicopters well. They were thick-skinned and tough, with almost no sound insulation and no heating. They never said hello when turning, and their pilots were all former fighter pilots.

This Vietnamese student was able to stand and get on the train after being rushed here, which shows his strong physical fitness.

The train soon set off again and soon entered the grassland. There was really nothing interesting to see on the grassland in winter. It was night again, so Sun Zhiwei went straight to sleep.

When he woke up the next day, the train had arrived at Erlian Station.

Arriving here is like arriving at home. After the car stops, border soldiers will get on the car for security inspection.

Sun Zhiwei was not the only Chinese on this train. There were also many people returning to China from Moscow and other cities, and most of them brought a lot of foreign goods.

Sun Zhiwei didn't bring anything special in his bag. Important items like gold business cards were stored in his space.

But the young man sitting next to him was in trouble. Security personnel found several cassette tapes of Western classical music such as Beethoven and Mozart, as well as several pairs of nylon stockings in the young man's bag.

This kind of "untitled music" of Western classical music is now under strict investigation. The young man may not be well-informed outside, and this time he has fallen into the trap.

And those stockings, the advertising pictures on them show their thighs. This guy is really careless. He didn't even tear off the advertising label when he got on the bus. Here's another one.

All I can say is that this young man brought this upon himself. He was severely criticized by the prosecutor on the spot and was taken off the train.

Sun Zhiwei estimated that what followed would be a severe reprimand and education, and he would have to leave the name and address of his domestic work unit so they could notify him and report the young man's serious problems. Then there would be the audio tape, which would definitely be confiscated. The stockings were very expensive, so they would probably be returned to him, but the label would definitely be torn off on the spot.

Finally, the young man will definitely be criticized when he returns home. How severely he will be criticized depends on what his father does.

However, Sun Zhiwei's condition is not expected to be too serious.

Just think about it and you will know that the young man was returning the stockings to his family. At this time, in what kind of family can women wear stockings?

Thinking of this, Sun Zhiwei felt a little regretful that he had not thought it through. He should have brought some of these stockings back with him. Who knows, Jia Jia might like them?

Looking at the two long rows of warehouses on both sides of the platform, he thought again, this is actually just a small border station now, why build so many warehouses?

As he thought about it, he opened up the space and covered the warehouse. This is the problem with people with space, they want to open their perspective to take a look at everything they encounter.

As a result, he really saw something. The warehouses on both sides were full of confiscated contraband, contraband in all senses of the word.

Most of them are foreign items, and the scattered ones are mostly foreign books, magazines, audio-visual products, firearms, explosives, etc.

There were also some items that were obviously in large quantities and were probably smuggled.

This station has been built for nearly 20 years. All the contraband found over the years are piled up in the warehouse. No one cares and there is no channel for disposal. They are just piled up randomly.

Among them were the silk stockings he had been longing for. Boxes of them were piled up in a corner of a warehouse, covered in dust.

He thought, since these things were useless, it would be okay for him to take some. He didn't plan to take too much, so he took two small boxes.

In the future, technology will become more and more advanced and products will become more and more sophisticated. Now this can only be said to be passable.

After taking the stockings, he scanned the other items. There were many different items, including many valuable ones and some that he really wanted. He even saw a lot of electrical appliances, but unfortunately he couldn't take them home to use.

For example, there was a large freezer in one of the warehouses, and he really wanted to move a few home. However, these things consumed a lot of electricity, and if his household electricity consumption suddenly increased, it would definitely arouse suspicion.

Although enemy spies are no longer the main problem in this era, some of them still slip through the net.

Targets that consume a lot of electricity in the home are the main suspects, because nowadays most households don’t have many large electrical appliances, and the only thing that seems to consume a lot of electricity is the radio.

At this time, the inspection on the train seemed to be completed. The ground controller outside was waving a small flag at the front of the train through the window. With the sound of the whistle, the train slowly started to move.

For more than a day, the train galloped across the land of China. There were no tall buildings along the way, mostly rural fields.

But here, he felt very relaxed, as if everything was under control and any problem could be solved. In fact, this was the feeling of being home.

Outside, he always feels out of place.

Because no matter how developed the outside world is, it is not yours. It is someone else's home. Will others welcome you to live in their home and share everything in their home?

Just think about it and you will know that it is impossible. Only when you build your own home, it will be yours.
