Chapter 410 Green Leather Train (Another Lonely Day)

Xiaohong covered her nose and said, "It stinks, why are you staying?" Geng Hui also frowned and looked at Xia Maosheng.

Xia Maosheng is tall, turned his head to look around and said, "I remember there is a tea room? There are few people there."

Chen Hui said: "Yes, come this way, keep up, and be careful where you step." He led the four people and slowly squeezed through the crowd.

In the innermost right corner of the waiting room, not far from the bathroom, the staff of the two stations sat behind an old wooden desk with keys and chatted absent-mindedly eating melon seeds. Chen Hui walked over with Xiaowei and the four and said : "Is there a place inside?"

The staff member who was asked did not raise his eyelids and said: "Yes, 15 yuan each, pay to enter."

Chen Hui didn't speak, and slapped five train tickets on the table in front of the staff. At that time, train tickets were made of cardboard except in Guangdong.The starting station and floor fare are printed on the front, stamped, and the serial number is printed on the back, and the year, month, day, train number and compartment number are manually pasted, as well as a small note stating that smoking is prohibited and dangerous goods are prohibited.

The staff looked at the ticket in a daze, and there were five lower berths. He immediately stood up and returned the ticket to Chen Hui with a smile, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you in, five yuan per person, this is inevitable." These days. Taking out five sleeper berths in a short ride and all of them are lower berths, it is obvious that it is the relationship with the leader, and it is still a very hard relationship.

Chen Hui put away the ticket and said, "Thank you, find a room where no one smokes. We have a pregnant woman here." The staff turned to look at Geng Hui and Xiaohong and said, "Okay, yes, come on, inside There are not many people." That is, how many people are willing to open their mouths to fifteen people these days?Xiaowei and the others bought the sleeper ticket for only 20 yuan,
The price at this tea price station is five yuan, but the staff always charge ten or fifteen yuan.Nobody cares.In fact, it’s not really drinking tea, it’s just that you don’t have to crowd outside, and you can get on the bus in advance if you sit on the sofa.The current train station also has these.

这个年代的火车票定价不知道是根据什么方法定的，91年从兰州到南京的卧铺票也才40元。而从京城到HHHT就是49，可是从成都到重庆又是42，这里程可差的不是01:30点。

It is said that railway fare pricing has always been a mystery.

Five people pulled their suitcases and followed the staff into a corridor on the side of the waiting room. After turning two corners, the staff took the key and opened a room and said, "Just wait here, there is no one in this room. I'll come over and get you into the car in a while."

Chen Hui said thank you, took out 30 yuan and handed it to her. She took the money and looked at Chen Hui and said, "I don't have any change with me. Wait a minute and I'll give you some change." Chen Hui waved his hand and said, "Forget it, Just bring some hot water." The staff went to the next room and brought a thermos, and there were cups in the room.

This year, there was no paper cup, only glass cups. Chen Hui took the thermos and thanked him and began to wash the cups. The staff smiled and went out.

Xiaohong looked at the man and left and asked: "Didn't you say fifteen, why is it five yuan again? It's really expensive."

Geng Hui took the hot water from Chen Hui and said, "Five yuan is the price at the station, and it has to be handed over to the station. Fifteen yuan is the price for the bottom shift. Everyone will share."

Xiaohong said: "It's so expensive, can someone come in?"

Geng Hui warmed his hands with a cup of water, and said, "Whether anyone comes or not has nothing to do with these workers."

Xiaohong froze for a moment, staring at her big eyes and looking a little lost.Isn't it striving to be the four newcomers who want to be the masters of the new era?But after all, there seems to be nothing wrong with it, the master, the master, I am the master, this is my home, I can do whatever I want.

The most interesting thing in Chinese is the phrase that the factory (unit) is the home.When working: "You should regard the factory as your home." When talking about welfare: "What the hell do you think this is your home?" Is it in charge or not?It is really difficult for ordinary people.

Because the room was a little small, none of the three of Xiaowei smoked, and all five of them sat on the hardwood sofa covered with a white cloth and talked with water glasses in their hands.

Time passed slowly, the train left at [-]:[-], and at [-]:[-], the staff member opened the door and walked in, saying: "I can get on the train, are you going to sit for a while or get on the train and lie down? Give me your ticket."

Xiaohong put down her water glass and stood up and said, "Get in the car, what are you doing sitting here is meaningless."

Chen Hui took out the tickets to the staff, and she took the ticket clip and cut them one by one and said to Chen Hui: "When you get on the bus, take your things with you, don't leave them behind, let's go, I'll take you in."

The five people pulled their suitcases and followed the staff to the station. After passing through a corridor, she took out the key and opened a door, pushed it open and said, "Just go out, just go to the platform, and look for the number of the carriage. Don't make a mistake." .”

Five people came out with their suitcases, and the staff locked the door behind them.

There was no one on the platform, the long green leather train stopped quietly in the night, and a few fluorescent lights cast a hazy blue light on the platform.Chen Hui said: "Let's go, the sleeper is at the back, it's a long way to go."

Walking along the long platform to the other end, the doors of the train were all open, no one was there, and a few lights in the carriage were on.

Chen Hui looked up at the car number, and led everyone to find the car and get on the car.

At present, the train carriages have to climb ladders up and down, three or four steps of iron mesh ladders, the lower opening is still quite high from the platform ground, which is better in summer, but in winter, it is impossible to step up if you wear thick legs, let alone go out. It's a big bag and a small bag, and no one will help you pull you up.At that time, there were more people in the car than now, and there was no order in getting on the car. It was just a swarm of people rushing to get on the car, and there were often people who didn't get on the car.

Several people first helped Xiaohong and Geng Hui up, and then handed the suitcase up to the car, but no one squeezed so easily.After entering the carriage, I found a berth under the dim light and put the suitcase away. The five of them sat down together. Xiaohong tied up her hair with a rubber band and said, "Why is there no one? Neither is the conductor."

Xia Maosheng said: "This is the departure station. The ticket has not yet been cut. The conductor will come before the ticket is cut. It will be crowded at that time. I lost my shoes once and went back to Longcheng barefoot." Everyone laughed, and it was quite interesting to think about it.

But what was your mood at the time?
After chatting for a while, Geng Hui and Xiaohong lay down, and Xiaowei, Xia Maosheng, and Chen Hui sat on the other side and talked. The five lower berths occupied the second and a half seats.

After a while, Xiaohong fell asleep, footsteps were heard in the carriage, then all the lights came on, and the conductor came up.After seeing Xiaowei, they walked over without saying a word, checked the whole carriage, and then he got off the station to the platform.

After a while, a few people appeared on the silent platform, carrying their bags and rushing towards the train, followed by three or four, five or six, ten or so, and within a few breaths, the platform was filled with people running wildly. The people in the back were already crowded together and couldn't run anymore. The nurses and daughters helped the old and the young and called for friends. In an instant, there were crowds of people between the train and the station.
