The Russian girl looked at Su Xing seriously and then replied, "My great-grandfather once lived in China for a while. He did business there and took some photos at that time."

"So that's how it is." Su Xing nodded, and then asked tentatively, "Is he... okay?"

The Russian girl said: "He has been dead for many years."

Su Xing said, "I'm sorry."

Su Xing was not surprised by the Russian girl's answer. According to the time when these photos were taken, if her great-grandfather were still alive, he would probably be over a hundred years old.

"It doesn't matter." The Russian girl continued, "When my great-grandfather died, I was still very young, about this age."

She gestured with her hand to a height of over one meter, then continued, "This album is his legacy, but it's been kept in a corner of the attic, unnoticed. When I found it, it was already covered in a thick layer of dust. I asked my parents what to do with it, and they told me to figure it out. So I brought it to school, waiting for its destined owner to appear. Now it's waiting for you."

When Su Xing heard her words, he suddenly felt touched.

She didn't know what words to use to express her feelings at the moment. She just looked at the Russian girl in front of her and said seriously, "Thank you. This is a very precious photo album. I will keep it well and take it back to my country."

The Russian girl smiled at Su Xing and said, "That's great. I believe it will be happy to go back with you."

Su Xing suddenly asked: "Could you please leave me a contact number?"

The Russian girl nodded, "Of course."

She pulled out an old pen from her stall, asked a classmate at the next stall for a piece of notepaper, wrote an email address on it, and handed it to Su Xing.

“This is my mailbox.”

Su Xing solemnly took the note and put it away carefully.

At the same time, he put the photo album into his backpack.

She said, "I think we'll get in touch again sometime."

The Russian girl smiled back.

Su Xing looked at his roommates next to him and asked, "Do you want to take another look?"

Gao Yang shook the sticker set in his hand and said, "I've seen them all. I'll just buy this one."

Pei Shiqi and Zhang Caifeng also said that they had nothing else they wanted to buy.

"Okay, let's go."

After Su Xing finished speaking to his roommates, he waved to the Russian girl and said, "Goodbye."

The Russian girls also waved to Su Xing and the others, "Bye~"

Su Xing and four other girls walked out of the school.

Gao Yang said: "I didn't expect there would be such an unexpected gain in Jie."

Zhang Caifeng nodded and said, "Yes, the photo album that Su Xing bought is of great historical value."

Pei Shiqi looked at Su Xing and asked, "Su Xing, what are you going to do with that photo album?"

Su Xing thought about it and said, "When we return to China, we'll find a suitable museum and donate it."

Several girls thought that Su Xing's approach was appropriate and nodded in praise.

As soon as they walked out of the gate of Far Eastern Federal University, they saw the driver squatting opposite and playing with his mobile phone.

They crossed the street and walked towards the car.

When the driver noticed they had returned, he put away his phone and stood up.

He smiled and said, "How was your visit? This school environment is pretty good, right?"

Zhang Caifeng said, "It's quite good."

Gao Yang smiled and said, "The market on campus is also very interesting."

The driver was a little surprised. "You even caught up with their student market? That's great! Did you buy anything interesting?"

Pei Shiqi said: "I bought some."

Su Xing said: "I bought some very meaningful items."

As they talked, they got into the car, sat down and fastened their seat belts.

The driver took them to the pedestrian street and found a Russian restaurant for dinner.

After dinner, he sent the girls back to the hotel.

"Go to bed early and see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

The four girls waved goodbye to the driver and entered the hotel.

Back in the room, Su Xing took out the photo album again and looked through the photos carefully.

Zhang Caifeng also came over and watched with her.

Some of the photos have notes on the back, some with dates, and some in Russian.

Since they couldn't understand Russian, they opened the translation software and translated the Russian notes.

Some of the Russian words record the location and background of the photos, while others are some of the photographer's inner feelings.

After watching it, both of them felt a little heavy.

After a while, Su Xing said to Zhang Caifeng, "Go take a shower first."

"Okay, stop looking at it and clean up."

"Hmm~"

……

It's another early morning.

Today is the 6th, and it is also their last day in Russia.

They didn't plan to visit any tourist attractions that day, but instead planned to go shopping.

Russian chocolate, alcohol, skin care products, etc. are all very cheap.

If you don't shop here, you'll feel like you're missing out.

The driver first took them to the duty-free shop.

He also took out a bunch of membership cards and handed them to them, "I have membership cards for any mall you want to go to. I can lend them to you and give you 6-8% off."

"thank you."

"Jie Ke is so practical."

After thanking the driver, the girls took his card.

The driver smiled, revealing his white teeth. "You're welcome. Your shopping helps me accumulate points, and I benefit from it too."

Most tour guides and drivers working in the tourism industry here have membership cards for duty-free shops and large supermarkets, and are happy to lend them to tourists.

Points can be used to offset cash consumption, redeem gifts and some services, and can also be used to upgrade and enjoy membership level benefits.

In some shopping malls, there are even people holding membership cards and actively asking tourists if they need to borrow their membership cards.

The four girls got off the bus and went for a walk in the duty-free shop.

The goods here include tobacco, alcohol, cosmetics, jewelry, shoes and hats, electronic products, food, etc.

There are many kinds of alcoholic beverages in Russia, and many tourists who come here like to bring some wine back.

However, the free limit for alcoholic beverages crossing the border is only 1.5 liters. In the alcoholic beverage area, many tour guides repeatedly remind the tourists in their groups to buy less, and must buy less, otherwise they will have to declare it to the customs upon entry and be taxed before being released. If the amount exceeds the amount for personal use, it must be declared to the customs as imported goods.

Su Xing and a few other girls didn't plan to buy any alcohol, so they just looked around and then went to other areas.

At the chocolate stall, several girls stopped.

Russian chocolate is really cheap. You can buy a box for just a few dozen rubles, which is only a few yuan in RMB, and they are all very fragrant.

These days, the four girls have been eating a lot of chocolate here.

Pei Shiqi was afraid that too high a calorie intake would make her fat, so she ate relatively less.

The ones they bought were basically more than 60% to 70% pure, and the taste was neither too sweet nor too bitter, just right.

Today, they plan to buy more to take back home.

A Russian guy next to them saw that the ones they were holding were all of 90-% purity, so he picked up a box of % purity and strongly recommended it to them in his not-so-fluent English.

"This one is pure, the most fragrant and delicious. You will definitely like it, trust me!"
