The iron train stopped at the platform of Jingcheng Station, emitting a melodious whistle.
In this era, medium and long-distance travel was dominated by iron trains.
Flying is too expensive and it is inconvenient to get to the airport, so it is not considered by ordinary travelers at all.
As for the EMU, according to historical trajectory, it will not appear until the sixth major train speed increase in 2007.
Huang Huai stepped off the train with a tired look on his face.
After all, I stayed up all night yesterday, my brain was spinning rapidly, I bought a standing ticket, and stood all the way to the capital. Even a tough person can't stand it.
Although the current train speed is significantly faster than before, it still takes four or five hours to get from Jiangzhou to Beijing. It is dirty and messy, and the air is mixed with the smell of foot odor, sweat odor, instant noodles, and cigarettes.
Buying a sleeper berth would effectively solve this problem, but the total drive was only four or five hours, and it was daytime. Buying a sleeper berth felt too expensive, so I didn't even think about it in that direction.
Huang Huai took a deep breath of the fresh air on the platform and tried to get rid of the discomfort. He still had to show his positive and sunny side in front of his old classmates.
He looked up and looked for other roommates.
They all took trains. Although their departure places were different, together they bought trains that arrived at the station at about the same time.
However, now it is normal for trains to be delayed, and the specific arrival time is not certain.
"Lao Wu, Lao Wu!" Huang Huai heard a familiar voice.
"Brother! I miss you so much!" Huang Huai turned around and saw Huang Sicheng waving to him not far away, and hurried over.
The two hug!
"Lao Wu, you are the last one to arrive. All the brothers are here. Let's go and rest for a while!"
The boss Huang Sicheng's appearance has not changed at all, but his overall temperament seems much calmer.
"Going to rest?" Huang Huai was a little confused.
"Jiang Tao found a VIP room for us. Let's have some tea first, and then send a car to take us to the hotel!"
"Ah? You want to go to the VIP room?" Huang Huai was a little confused.
Is there a VIP room at the train station?
This was something he never expected.
Even if there is one, it is a VIP room at Beijing Station. Just thinking about it, you know that ordinary people cannot enter.
"Yeah, brothers think it's unnecessary, it's too wasteful, but Jiang Tao has to do it, let's go! It's so luxurious inside, let's see the world!"
With that said, the two came to the station VIP room.
The VIP room is indeed very luxurious, measuring more than 100 square meters, with large crystal chandeliers and thick carpets on the floor.
There are white single sofas at the base of the wall, with sofa covers covering them, making them look a bit quaint.
There is a large LCD color TV hanging on the opposite wall.
This large color TV alone would probably cost tens of thousands!
The third child, Wang Guanghao, and the sixth child, Qian Dingguo, were already sitting there. Next to them, there were two girls whom Huang Huai did not recognize.
"Oh, isn't this Lao Wu? I see you!" Wang Guanghao stood up quickly and said. He works in the Justice Bureau of Hexi District, Beiyang City, his hometown.
"Fifth brother, you are the slowest lately!" Qian Dingguo, the sixth child, said with a smile.
Qian Dingguo originally worked as a lawyer in Jiangzhou, but after working for less than a year, he went to Huangzhou.
In his words, to be a lawyer, you have to go to a place with a developed economy and active thinking.
Although Jiangzhou is the provincial capital, the official mentality is too strong and there is no room for the development of lawyers.
Most law graduates are still in the judicial field.
Either go to the Public Security Bureau or a law firm.
After all, it is also a very tough major.
"Third brother, sixth brother, I miss you so much!"
There was no reserve between them and they gave each other a big hug.
Everyone in their dormitory got along well with each other except Liu Jian, the bad boy.
Now, Liu Jian has received the punishment he deserves. When they find out, they all applaud and never mention him again.
"Lao Wu, don't be too busy being sticky. Let me introduce to you. This is your sixth sibling, Lao Liu's girlfriend!" Huang Sicheng introduced one of the girls.
This girl looks fair-skinned and somewhat pretty. She has heavy makeup and is dressed in a fashionable style.
"Brothers and sisters are so beautiful?! That's okay, Lao Liu, you are so handsome! Hello, brothers and sisters, I am Lao Wu Huang Huai!" Huang Huai greeted enthusiastically.
"Oh, hello." Qian Dingguo's girlfriend glanced at Huang Huai, looking a little cold.
He also seemed to have a rather arrogant demeanor, not only towards Huang Huai, but also towards others, even towards Qian Dingguo.
"Lao Wu, my siblings are from Huangzhou, what are their names?" Huang Sicheng asked.
"My name is Gao Na." Qian Dingguo added from the side.
"Yes, Gao Na, she is the golden phoenix of the big city! It's our blessing to be able to fall in love with my sixth daughter!" Huang Sicheng said happily.
Qian Dingguo giggled at the side.
"No wonder, she looks very elegant at first glance. She is indeed a girl from a big city." Huang Huai said.
"This is your sister-in-law, her name is Liu Min, she is our middle school teacher!" Huang Sicheng continued to introduce another girl.
"Hello, fifth brother, I'm Liu Min, nice to meet you!"
Liu Min greeted her warmly and generously, which was in sharp contrast to Gao Na.
She is not beautiful, but she has a well-proportioned figure, elegant facial features, and simple clothes. At first glance, she looks like a good woman suitable to be a wife.
"Hello, sister-in-law! It's great that both the eldest brother and the fifth brother have a home. Third brother, we have to hurry up!" Huang Huai said with a smile.
"Why are you anxious? You are the only one among our brothers who lives in the provincial capital! Apart from Brother Tao, you don't have to worry! Take your time and choose!" Wang Guanghao said with a smile.
After hearing this, Gao Na rolled her eyes and seemed a little unconvinced.
What provincial capital?
How can it compare to Huangzhou?
Do you know Jiangzhou in Handong and Huangzhou in China?
"Hey, has Brother Tao found a partner? He is so busy now, he probably doesn't have time, right?" Huang Huai asked.
"You must underestimate your second brother. He has a good career and love. I heard that my partner is very beautiful and will get married soon. Let's congratulate him today!"
"Really? We really need to learn more from Brother Tao! Brother Tao is so awesome, he is simply the pride of our classmates!" Huang Huai said emotionally.
After all, no matter who has such an awesome classmate, he can't help but be excited.
That was the former governor’s secret!
Now the minister’s big secret!
To be realistic, every time Liang Jiangtao speaks to them in the future, they will benefit from it endlessly.
Of course, they cannot open this mouth easily and must use it at critical moments.
This is human nature, everyone will think so!
But Gao Na rolled her eyes again, looking very disdainful.
Qian Dingguo was so bored that he had to drag her to the capital to attend some class reunion.
He said that his classmate was in some institution in Beijing and that he was very powerful.
Really speechless.
What’s good about being a civil servant?
How much money can you make in a year?
Only small places are superstitious about this!
In a big city like Huangzhou, what counts is income!
Real income!
Being a civil servant in Huangzhou is a sign of incompetence and you will be laughed at!
Even driving a taxi earns more than a civil servant.
If Qian Dingguo was a civil servant earning one to two thousand yuan a month, she wouldn't even look at him.
There is also a VIP room, which looks like a show off at first glance.
Doing this with a month's salary is a big deal, right? !
Besides, what’s so good about Beijing?
Is there a trestle?
Is there a coastal boulevard?
The air felt dirty as soon as I got off the bus, which was far worse than in Huangzhou!
