Chapter 74 Capital Station(2/2)

"Look, Botou matches!"

Zhao Wenqiu also saw the billboard outside.



At 8:30 in the morning, the train slowly pulled into Jingcheng Station.

People crowded into the car carrying large and small bags of luggage.

Zhao Wenmu and others were not in a hurry. They only picked up their luggage and walked out of the station after the peak flow of people passed.

In September, the autumn air is crisp and clear.

The whole capital was in ashes.

It's not smog, the sky in Beijing is blue now.

It's a city, and the whole city looks gray.

Most of the buildings, decorations, and people's clothes nowadays are like this, mainly gray, dark brown, and military green, lacking in vivid and conspicuous colors.

Jingcheng Station still looks familiar to later generations.

Since the station was built in September 1959, it has not changed much in appearance until the 21st century.

Some European-style Beijing stations adopt a symmetrical structure with traditional Chinese architectural style. Decades later, they are still solemn, clear and generous, and do not lag behind the times at all.

There is only one characteristic inside and outside the station, that is, there are many people.

There were people carrying big and small bags everywhere, and many people spread their luggage on the ground and just lay there and slept.

Zhao Wenqiu, Zhao Xin, and Zhao Jing all looked curious, looking left and right.

Everything is novel.

In their eyes, the waiting room of Jingcheng Station is magnificent, like a great hall.

Although Zheng Guangming's face was expressionless, it could be seen that he was very excited. He had been to a big city like Guangzhou before in a certain army in the south.

But the capital is different after all.

Especially people of this generation generally have different emotions towards the capital.

Coming out of the station, not far from the Beijing Metro Station.

The subway station is surrounded by iron horses and cannot be entered.

When Zhao Wenmu got closer, he saw a somewhat pale notice, which meant that the subway station was temporarily closed due to internal renovations.

Historically, the first subway line in Beijing was opened 20 years ago, but there were constant accidents and it was not re-opened until 1981.

Of course Zhao Wenmu didn't know this.

The small square in front of Jingcheng Station is filled with various cars.

Even Zhao Wenmu was a bit eye-opening at this time.

He has never seen so many classic cars.

Several others simply opened their mouths.

There are the long-mouthed Jiefang trucks and Skoda buses produced in the Czech Republic that they would see in Pingyang County, but there are many more that they have never seen before.

For example, the long BG670 diesel link bus is also nicknamed "Red Coffin" because it is square and has a circle of red decoration.

Such large-channel buses are not available in many places in 2020, let alone Pingyang County in 1980.

After all, if the flow of people is not very dense, this kind of large bus may not be suitable.

There are also a few GAZ 12 and Shanghai sedans, which are only for high-ranking cadres.

Zhao Wenqiu's eyes widened when he saw it.

In the small parking lot nearby, there was actually a black GAZ 21 Volga and a sky blue GAZ M20 victory review car.

Zhao Wenmu knows the GAZ brand.

An old friend in his previous life liked to collect classic cars like this. According to him, the old man who drew a circle on the South China Sea once took an M20 Victory out in the 1980s.

Sure enough, Beijing is different.

If you throw a block at random and turn around, the person you hit might be a cadre.

It must be some important reception event. Zhao Wenmu didn't think there would be so many "luxury cars" at Beijing Station under normal circumstances.

Of course, the most popular ones here are the three-bounce taxis painted in blue and white.

With bright eyes, the little girls looked at the buses speeding past on the street, at the tall station and the retro old buildings next to them, and at the various cars in the parking lot.

I can't wait to get my hands on it and touch it.

Even Zhao Jing, who has always been calm, seemed eager to try.

Zhao Wenmu felt that bringing her along this time was really the right decision.

However, apart from Sanbengzi, taxis are hard to find.

Zhao Wenmu finally found a Lada, but when asked, it cost 9 yuan at Sidaokou!

It doesn't matter to him whether it's 9 yuan or 90 yuan.

But Zhao Jing was very reluctant, and there was only one car, and the small Lada couldn't carry so many of them.

But he didn't want to ride on the three-wheeler, which looked unsafe.

In fact, there are not many cars on the road at the moment, so the safety of Sanbengzi is still acceptable.

Finally, the group decided to take the bus.

I finally found someone who knew the route and asked. It only took one transfer from Jingcheng Station to Sidaokou.

The fare is 7 cents + 5 cents.

Zhao Wenmu lamented that without mobile phone navigation, it was really inconvenient to take the bus.

I really miss the mobile phone, which is as indispensable as a human organ!

A group of people got on the bus.

Go to Sidaokou.

I finally got the first round of recommendations for a new book. If you like it, use your little hands to make a fortune and add it to your collection~
