Chapter 196 Ham sausage on the train

No matter what the name is, you can't call it this name. If your child becomes like this in the future, then it's better not to, so Li Lei quickly found an excuse to change the topic.

The things that should be done this year are almost done, and now Yu Jingshu is pregnant again, so Li Lei didn't go out during this time, just stayed in Heyang, went to various factories during the day, and came back from get off work to accompany his wife and family , Let your hands go to work on the rest.

It was the twelfth lunar month in a blink of an eye, and when the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month was approaching, the factories along the coast were on holiday, and the workers who had worked hard for a year embarked on the journey home with big bags and small bags.

At this time, the train is the only choice for the vast majority of migrant workers. There is no way. Air tickets are too expensive to afford and they are not qualified to buy them. For road transportation, the construction of the transportation network is not in place, and the number of long-distance buses is relatively low. Less, and even if there is a price, it is much more expensive than a train ticket.

Motorcycles are even more impossible, not to mention whether they can go back safely, and the price of motorcycles today is not affordable for ordinary migrant workers.

Therefore, whenever the Spring Festival is approaching, it becomes the most tense and busiest time for the railway department, and this phenomenon was born after the reform and development.

Before the reform and development, ordinary people were trapped in communes, and very few could go out. Even if some people worked in other places and needed to go home during the Spring Festival, there was not such a large flow of people. The railway department added a few Linke trains to basically meet the needs. demanded.

After the reform and development, the country relaxed restrictions on the movement of people. At the same time, due to the gap in regional economic development, most of the factories that can absorb a large amount of labor are located in the southeast coastal areas; It is the common wish of almost all the workers who go out to work. Even if the factory wants them to work overtime, they can't keep them.

Ever since, when it was the twelfth lunar month, countless workers embarked on the journey home from the southeast coast. They endured the severe cold and lined up at the train station and various ticket offices day and night, just to go home and have a good time with their family members. Year.

However, the transportation capacity is seriously insufficient at this time. In fact, this problem has not been solved even at the beginning of the 21st century. The problem.

The first is the scalpers. The scalpers get a large number of tickets for popular routes in advance through internal relationships, and then sell them at a higher price to those migrant workers who are eager to go home!

Just adding money is still good, and there are people who make fake tickets to deceive others. It is often seen that workers are found holding fake tickets and sitting in tears at the entrance of the train station.

There are also some craftsmen who also target these migrant workers. They wander around every crowded place in the train station, stealing when they see the opportunity. If they are not careful, their income will be cheap for a whole year.

And once these people are discovered, the end will be extremely miserable. All the beaters hate these guys to the bone, and it is not uncommon to be beaten to death on the spot. Even if the police come, they can only persuade them with good words. No. People, a slight mistake can cause big troubles.

When the police rescue these guys, the main thing is that they will not pursue the responsibility if they are still angry. The law does not blame the public. So many people have done it, have you been able to investigate it?Even they would applaud secretly, these guys have tormented the police enough, and seeing them being beaten will only feel that they deserve it.

In order to go home, the workers also came up with various methods. If they couldn’t buy a ticket, they would buy a platform ticket first as an excuse to send someone to the train. If the train door was crowded with too many people, they would climb in through the window. Anyone who dares to close the windows and not open them will get into big trouble. These angry migrant workers will directly smash the windows, so those who have gone out will quickly open the nearby windows when they see that they are closed. Squeeze, and don't want to be hurt by broken glass.

And this is also convenient for myself, who can guarantee that I can buy a ticket every time?Maybe in the future, when I need to open the window to get into the car, if I help others now, maybe someone will help me in the future.

Brothers Liu Shengyao and Liu Shengjun are from Sichuan. There are many brothers and sisters in their family. It is impossible to support so many people with any land at home. So they went out with the villagers. At first, they went to Chengdu to look for opportunities. Later, they heard that Said that the wages here in Guangdong are high, so I went to Guangzhou.

At the beginning, I suffered a lot. I was stolen, cheated, slept under the overpass, turned over food in the trash can, and I learned a lesson after eating too much. I am also familiar with the intelligence of Guangdong. The past two years It was a lot easier, and both brothers found jobs in factories in the Special Economic Zone, and made a lot of money after working hard for a year.

They had known for a long time that tickets for the Spring Festival Transport were difficult to buy, so they asked their acquainted scalpers from the beginning. Because they acted early, they only paid double the price to buy the tickets, and there were still seats.

I bought gifts for my family in advance, then hid the money in the interlayer of the underwear, and sewed it several times with needles and threads, and then came to the train station with big bags and small bags.

When I came in, there were still three or four hours before driving, and everyone else tried to find a seat to sit down and rest. Even if they couldn’t find a seat, they would sit on the ground against the wall. Cultivating a good spirit is definitely not enough.

But they don’t, they start queuing early, because they know that even if they have a ticket, they can’t guarantee to get on the bus. Every year, there are too many people who hold the ticket but don’t get on the bus; and they can grab their luggage earlier. It's a big trouble if you go late and have no place to put your luggage.

"Brother, sit down for a while." Liu Shengjun put the snakeskin bag for clothes on the ground, and took turns sitting down with Liu Shengyao to rest. When there was still 15 minutes to drive, the two brothers put the snakeskin bag on their backs and finished Ready to charge.

"The XX train to Chengdu is about to start ticket checking, please get ready!" As soon as the broadcast sounded, the train station was boiling, and the queue instantly became thicker. He didn't agree, and scolded on the spot.

Sometimes scolding gets angry, and it is not uncommon to fight on the spot. If this is seen by the public, they will definitely express their emotions, condemn the moral concepts of the Chinese people, and then tell some stories about foreigners queuing up in a foreign country. The scene is compared with this, and the problem is attributed to the inferiority of the nation.

However, this is because they don't have to worry about whether they can get on the bus. If you take away their privileges and let them line up with the beaters, maybe they will jump in the line even harder and curse more fiercely.

"Hold the ticket in your hand, ready to check the ticket!" With a clatter, the fence door opened, and the ticket inspector stood at the door with small pliers. When a person came, he took the ticket from him, and after verifying that it was correct, there was a click. Even if there is a small gap in the train ticket, the ticket has been checked.

"Where's your ticket? Take it out!" Some people tried to get in without a ticket, and the ticket inspector found it right away.

"Get out of the way, I want to go home for the New Year!" Seeing that he couldn't make it through, the young man went straight ahead and tried to rush over, but was caught by the railway staff behind him.

But there were only a few workers who stopped people, and there were too many migrant workers who didn't have a ticket and wanted to go home. When one was caught, more people still mixed in.

"Run faster! Run faster! After eating so much at noon, why are you still running so slowly?" Liu Shengyao scolded his younger brother while rushing forward quickly.

After standing for three hours in advance, it was not in vain. When they got on the bus, there was still a little space in the luggage rack above the seats, so they quickly stuffed their luggage into it.

After packing up their luggage and sitting on their seats, the two brothers breathed a sigh of relief, Liu Shengyao proudly said to his younger brother, "Look, I have long said that I want to buy this car, and you said that the price is expensive, but now you know the benefits? The train you mentioned is a passing train, and it must be full when we get on the train, so how can there be room to put luggage? It would be nice to have one foot on the ground!"

"This train is the first train, everyone gets on the train at this station, as long as we run fast, we can grab the luggage rack, and when the time comes to sleep comfortably on the small table, we will be home! "It takes more than 30 hours to drive back to their hometown from here, and they can't get there without a night's sleep.

Speaking of this, Liu Shengjun still has lingering fears, "Last year was too miserable. I barely touched the ground along the way. I was so crowded that I couldn't breathe smoothly. I almost peed in my crotch. When I got out of the car, my feet were not my own. Yes, it took half an hour to slow down."

"This year, enjoy yourself! You have a seat and a place to put your luggage. Others will be envious!" Liu Shengyao lit a cigarette and looked at those people who were still desperately pushing up.

"Remember, only one of the two of us can sleep. When we change shifts, there must always be one person watching the luggage, and don't talk too much to others; there are too many bad guys now, and some pretend to be friends with you. When he was chatting enthusiastically, his accomplice took the opportunity to take your luggage away."

"Don't eat the food given by others, and don't smoke cigarettes. Many of them are drugged. If you eat and smoke, you will be unconscious. When the money is stolen, it will be a trivial matter, so you will kill everyone! Do you remember the old Wu in my dormitory? He told me that a fellow of his was drugged on the train and turned into a fool!"

Liu Shengyao came out earlier than his younger brother and had experienced many things, so he kept telling his younger brother to be careful.

When the train started, all the seats were full, and the middle of the carriage and the connection between the carriages were also full of people. It seemed that even one more person would not be able to fit in.

However, this is the magic of the train. When they arrived at the next station, a large number of people came up, and they were all squeezed out.

The more amazing thing is yet to come. It seems that there is no room to insert a needle, but the conductor is still able to walk from the first car to the last car while pushing the cart.

The salesman stood still at the entrance of the carriage, took out the loudspeaker and began to sell, "Hello, passengers and friends, I am here to wish you an early New Year. I wish you good health, family harmony and prosperity in the coming year!"

"Okay!" It was so boring on the train, and this little episode drew everyone's applause.

"Welcome everyone to take this train home to celebrate the New Year. I am a salesperson on this train. In order to enrich everyone's travel life and to give better gifts to your family when you go home, our railway department specially bought a batch of I'm going to introduce you to a new product now!"

"Come on, let's take a look, does anyone know what this is?" The salesman asked, holding up a small red stick, "Does any comrade know?"

"I know, ham sausage!" A passenger wearing glasses shouted, "When our leader went to Japan for inspection, he brought some back. It's delicious!"

"It looks like you work in a large unit, amazing!" The salesman praised him with a thumbs up, and then continued to introduce this product, "This comrade is right, this is ham sausage, we sell it now This ham sausage is produced by our country with the introduction of Japanese production lines!"

"Using international advanced technology, pork, starch and other raw materials are used. It is nutritious and delicious, and has a long storage time! You can buy it and store it for three to five months without spoiling!"

"And our Panpan brand ham sausage is also a cooperative product of the Asian Games, that is to say, those foreign friends who come to participate in the Asian Games will also eat this kind of ham sausage!"

"Foreigners can only eat good food after two years. Now you can sell a big pack for only two yuan. Why don't you buy two packs and give it to your wife and children? Show respect to the elderly? Show off in front of relatives and friends ?”

"Two dollars is not expensive, you don't need to hold a family meeting; two dollars is not a big deal, you can't buy a house or land; two dollars is not too much, you can't build a house and you can't buy a car; two dollars can't afford you and you can't afford it However, we can bring our Panpan brand ham sausage back to our hometown!"

The salesperson's jokes were a string of jokes, and everyone was taken aback when they heard it. Many people were tempted when they heard the words of the Asian Games, but because they had never eaten this stuff, they couldn't make up their minds for a while.

Someone booed, "No matter how good you say, haven't we eaten it yet? If we haven't eaten it, we don't know if it's delicious. Why should we buy it?"

"It's not easy to want to eat? Brother, you have already opened your mouth. Come on, let me cut a little and you can try it?" The salesman had already prepared, he peeled a piece of ham sausage, cut it into thin slices, and handed it to the surrounding people one by one. Passenger, "Come on, let's all taste whether it is delicious or not!"

This guy is probably trained in a Lanzhou beef noodle shop. Just one piece of ham sausage is enough for dozens of people to taste.

"The taste is really good!" Most of the people who tasted it gave good comments. After being crowded on the train for so long, they must be tired and hungry. Now they feel delicious, not to mention that it is free now.

Some people want to mix a little more, "It's too little, it's not enough to fit between the teeth, why don't you give me some more!"

"Are you Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit? Well, well, just taste it for a reason. If you want to eat it, you can buy a pack. You can eat it right away!"

"Come on, does anyone want it? It's a big bag for two yuan!" The salesman continued to yell.
