Chapter 67: : Caught off guard and took a small hand
It is not convenient to travel far in 1983.
Shangdu and Yangcheng are separated by more than a thousand kilometers. If you say that there are direct buses between the two places, there is not a single trip a day. However, Yangcheng is a large city in the south, and business is the Central Plains railway hub. In addition to direct trains, there are also passing cars whose departure station is not the business capital.
Railway transportation in Shangdu is very developed, but there is no train stop in Anqing County.
The distance between Anqing County and the business capital is close. If there is a train between the two, it is convenient for Xia Xiaolan to resell things. How can I rely on bicycles? Short-distance train tickets are not expensive, but long-distance train tickets are expensive!
Zhou Cheng drove Xia Xiaolan to business very quickly. As the Central Plains Railway Hub, the Shangdu Railway Station, of course it was shabby compared to the large railway stations of later generations, but the crowded crowds would only be worse than later generations. In another 30 years, people will choose to travel more diversely, with developed roads, a high degree of ownership of private cars, and cheaper air tickets that provide convenience and ease for long-distance travel.
Zhou Cheng asked Kang Wei to stay in the car, and he and Xia Xiaolan pitted into the station.
Carrying big bags and small bags to squeeze the train, drag the house with its mouth, the fowls with their wings and feet quacked, and spray their feces on the ground from time to time...or on the shoes of some unlucky ghost. Arguing, silly squeezing forward, being cheated, trying to steal things, anything can happen to the train station, and there are all kinds of strange smells here-poultry, sweat, the smell of old smoking guns, Xia Xiaolan held her breath when she was sore and bored with pickles.
Zhou Cheng guarded her, fearing that she would be taken advantage of by thieves and gangsters at the train station, and worried that she would be slipped by the peel on the ground and squeezed into the ticket office, obviously it was almost November, and she was sweating.
Someone squeezed Xia Xiaolan with her child, and her solid figure almost knocked her down.
Xia Xiaolan staggered, Zhou Cheng supported her arm.
"Follow me, don't lose it!"
It was originally holding the arm, but naturally it became holding the hand.
Xia Xiaolan's hands are not delicate and boneless, but Zhou Cheng has not held the hands of other girls, and he has no way of comparing them. He only knew that his hand could wrap Xia Xiaolan's little hand, the hand feeling was very good, his whole person was floating in the air...The surrounding environment was noisy and chaotic, and Zhou Cheng could hear his heartbeat amidst the hustle and bustle.
Boom, boom, boom, boom... This sound was like a snare drum, the drums became denser, and Zhou Cheng was dazzled by the explosion.
The senses in other parts of the body were blurred and weakened, and the only thing that stood out was the hand held by him and Xia Xiaolan.
Zhou Cheng, who could calm down a cannonball exploded in front of him, at this moment, his will is controlled by the adrenaline secreted by his body-what is love? Zhou Cheng didn't know, Zhou Cheng felt that he was captured by the supreme pleasure.
Just hold a hand.
It's not just holding hands.
With sweat on his palms, Xia Xiaolan was a little unnatural. Zhou Cheng's movements were so generous. So Zhou Cheng was nervous?
Realizing this, Xia Xiaolan also became nervous from calm.
She has a mental age, and she is not an old driver in the relationship between men and women. A few relationships before rebirth ended without a problem, she is pure love, Xia Xiaolan herself is also very strange. Zhou Cheng was courageous, and immediately seized the opportunity to hold hands, but he was so nervous that his palms were sweaty, bold and innocent?
Which one is Zhou Cheng on earth, Xia Xiaolan's heart also has strange emotions.
Zhou Cheng pulled her into the ticket office, "Comrade, can I still buy a train ticket to Yangcheng today?"
"The business capital is going to Yangcheng? Tickets for 6 pm are available. Bring the letter of introduction."
Xia Xiaolan wanted to take the letter of introduction, and the hand held by Zhou Cheng moved. Zhou Cheng was very reluctant to let go, feeling a sense of loss.
The ticket seller handed out Xia Xiaolan's letter of introduction, "A hard seat ticket is 25 yuan and 6 cents."
"No sleeper?"
It took more than 30 hours to travel from Shangdu to Yangcheng. The hard seat was too much to suffer. Zhou Cheng wanted to make Xia Xiaolan more comfortable on the road.
The ticket window was crowded, and the conductor had a bad temper: "There is only a hard seat, do you want it? Don't just go next!"
Sleeper?
Railway resources are very tight these days. There are not too many sleeping berths on each train. It doesnt matter if you want to buy sleeping berth tickets.
"Comrade, please have a hard seat."
Xia Xiaolan passed the money directly to the window.
The hard seat is better than she expected. For more than 30 hours, people who are in a hurry are willing to buy standing tickets! Station tickets are much cheaper than hard seats. Xia Xiaolan buys a hard seat to go to Yangcheng. It is already a very extravagant behavior... A ticket is 25.6 yuan, which is more than half a month's salary for ordinary employees!
The conductor received the money and handed Xia Xiaolan a ticket.
Zhou Cheng didn't say anything. The ambiguous atmosphere just now was unattainable, and he protected Xia Xiaolan and squeezed out of the station.
The railway station is very complicated, and Kang Wei hasn't left the truck in a single step.
"Have you bought a ticket?"
"To the hard seat in Yangcheng, the car at 6 o'clock in the afternoon, there are still more than two hours to drive."
Why did you buy a hard seat?
There is a tacit understanding between Kang Wei and Zhou Cheng. He put his hand on his stomach: "Fortunately you are back. Looking at the car, I am going to the toilet."
Kang Wei slipped away, leaving Xia Xiaolan and Zhou Cheng.
Zhou Cheng opened the door of the driver's license, "Xiaolan, you also get in the car, I have something to give you."
Zhou Cheng showed Xia Xiaolan a small flashlight.
This torch is different from the large iron-skinned torches with batteries. It is more compact and exquisite. Its high-grade black plastic shell and square appearance make it look full of technology.
"This is?"
No way, do you have this thing now?
Xia Xiaolan had a guess that Zhou Cheng didn't give her the flashlight right away, but showed her the hype:
"There are two buttons here. The green one is normal light when pressed, and the red one is high-voltage current, which directly touches human skin and can stun an adult within three seconds... Remember to fully charge the battery after using it."
What kind of flashlight is this? It's obviously an electric shock device!
It is very similar to the self-defense electric shock device Xia Xiaolan remembers for later generations!
Is the current technology so advanced? Xia Xiaolan's surprise did not hide.
Zhou Cheng thought it scared her, "Don't be afraid, hold the handle and use it, you won't get an electric shock."
This thing is of course not civilian technology. To get it, Zhou Cheng needs a lot of connections. Even if the equipment retired from the military is piled up in the warehouse to become moldy, it is absolutely impossible to leave it outside.
In 1983, the militias in Anqing County might still be equipped with firearms and weapons, but like this electric shock device, the public security officers of the provincial department will not be rationed, and the more familiar electric shock baton in China is the similar principle. It is too obvious that the electric shock baton is worn on her body. If Xia Xiaolan keeps holding it in her hand, she will not defend herself. Besides, she must be the first suspicious person to be interrogated by the police.
Xia Xiaolan held it in her hand, the small electric shock device, it was Zhou Cheng's heavy heart.
"The Shanghai stock market opened the first paging station this summer. There is a tool for instant contact. It is as small as a cigarette box. If the service desk is also opened on the southern side of Henan, we will be able to contact at any time... "
Is there a pager in the Shanghai stock market? !
