Chapter 402 The northernmost city in the world(1/2)
"Oslo." Ingrid said.
This couple is obviously not the type who often surfs the Internet. They have occasionally seen Ingrid on some news, but they didn't remember it.
Ingrid made news on a large scale after her coming-of-age ceremony and during her engagement to Han Qi. During that time, the couple planned to sell their company and move to the countryside, so they didn't pay much attention to the Internet.
It also saved the two of them some trouble.
Norway is narrow from east to west and vast from north to south. The route for the two of them to travel by car is from south to north. It can be said that they found the longest route across the entire Norway. They will definitely not be able to return to Oslo in a short time.
Fortunately, the King also drove this car from Oslo to Longyearbyen when he was young, so he knew how long it would take to drive, so there was no rush at all.
But only because he was not in a hurry, Prince Haakon was so anxious that he wanted to curse.
"Dad, don't you care? If she doesn't listen to me, how can she not listen to you? That boy Han drove your Alfa there. That was a car you bought in the 1960s. How long has it been there now? On the road.
What if something goes wrong?”
"You think there's something wrong with my car?" Harald said dissatisfiedly.
How could there be a problem? His car is used every year and is regularly maintained. The wear degree of the parts inside is no different from that of a nine-story new car. Moreover, the aging parts and wiring have been replaced with new ones over the years.
How can there be problems on the road?
Compared with today's new energy vehicles, he still prefers pure mechanical vehicles.
"Well, that's not true."
Haakon slapped his forehead and questioned that nothing could be questioned about the king's precious car.
He just felt a little uncomfortable. He knew that his daughter was going to study in China and it would be a rare sight. He specially found time to prepare to take Ingrid on a family trip. The location was chosen. It was in Germany. His daughter liked it very much before.
this country.
But Ingrid ran away secretly.
Drive to Longyearbyen!
When you come back, you can go directly to Huaxia to go to school. Where will you have time to spend with yourself and Margaery?
When he thought that he would be prepared to not see Ingrid for a long time from today on, he hated Han Qi so much that he trembled with hatred... It was all this kid's fault. If it weren't for her, Ingrid would still be in Norway.
If you live a good life, you won't even think about studying in China.
But this is a problem common to dads all over the world. Until you figure it out yourself, this unhappiness can be said to be unsolvable.
King Harald had completely calmed down. He agreed with Han Qi and Ingrid driving to Longyearbyen. He wanted his granddaughter to retravel the path he had taken when he was young. In King Harald's view,
It is a kind of inheritance and a tacit understanding.
"That's it. I believe that Han Qi and Ingrid can take care of themselves. They are both adults and you can't control her for the rest of their lives. Besides, I originally had the idea of letting Ingrid travel to relax after graduation. Why?
You don't agree with her going to Longyearbyen?"
Haakon was speechless. Is this a matter of going to Longyearbyen?
Oh, forget it.
I hope Han Qi can take better care of his daughter along the way. He now feels the same as Hua Xia’s words: There is no place for women to stay in college.
King Harald continued: "You make a call and ask the checkpoints in each state to release that car. We know the condition of the car, but the people at the checkpoints don't know. If checkpoints are required to check every place, it will take about two months.
The time will never come back.”
Haakon nodded in agreement.
If he came back earlier, he could see his daughter earlier. He still had a lot to say to Ingrid.
The people in the palace gave this classic car a lot of convenience. Of course, Han Qi and Ingrid didn't know this. The two young masters and ladies didn't understand the sufferings of the world at all. They didn't know that most of these classic cars were not allowed to go on the road.
Even if you go on the road, you still need to communicate with the local area first, otherwise you will easily be dragged to the police station.
day to day.
The two entered the Arctic Circle.
The northern part of Norway, such as Tromso, belongs to the Arctic Circle. It experiences polar night every winter and polar day in summer. However, even though it is summer, many roads in the north are still covered with snowflakes. When passing by in the evening, the view is not clear.
, it looks no different from a fairy tale world.
Ingrid had not been outside the city for a long time. When she saw this scene, she stood up and lay on the front windshield of the sports car.
Since there was still snow on the ground, Han Qi was not driving very fast, so there was no need to worry about any danger from Ingrid's behavior.
"With so many talents driving to Ringside, I don't know how long it will take to get to Longyearbyen."
"Just drive to Mager Island, there will be a plane to take us there."
Ingrid obviously learned about it on the Internet, and what she said was correct.
They were still on the deserted road, and it was getting dark soon. In a few dozen minutes, they could drive to a small town, which was the Lingside that Han Qi mentioned. Han Qi just looked at this small town on the map.
It’s worthy of a small word, it’s really small.
However, there are still shops, supermarkets, bars, hotels, etc.
Tromso, where Han Qi spent a long time, is not far from here, but if you want to go to Tromso, you need to branch off at the intersection in the morning, which is located on the left side of Ringside.
When you come to Northern Norway, it is even colder than Iceland. The temperature here is very low and it can snow during the day.
It is also geographically closer to the North Pole than Iceland.
As for Longyearbyen, which Ingrid is going to, it is a small island far away from the mainland of Norway. It has perennial frozen soil and is the city closest to the North Pole in the world.
The distance between the oceans alone is almost the distance that Han Qi drove from Oslo to the northernmost point of mainland Norway.
However, the two of them are not always on the road. The most important thing about self-driving travel is the word "travel". When they encounter beautiful scenery, they will stop to take pictures and rest for a few hours. When Han Qi is tired from driving, he will also stay in a nearby city for a day or two.
Day, so it took fifteen days to arrive on the originally not too far journey.
The flight to Longyearbyen from the airport on Mager Island took more than an hour.
When the plane landed, Han Qi thought about his driving experience in the past fifteen days and felt a little numb. He said to Ingrid: "Why don't we go back to Oslo directly? The stewardess just told me to get there from here."
Oslo only takes three hours.”
Ingrid touched Han Qi's forehead.
"Are you stupid? What should I do with my grandfather's car? If you don't take it back, he will probably drive you out of the palace."
Han Qi also sighed and made a joke.
It's faster than flying.
The two bought a down jacket in Hollingsvåg. Now after getting off the plane, they immediately felt that the down jacket was worth buying. Although it was already June, it was still very cold in Longyearbyen and snow-capped mountains could be seen all around.
Ten minutes ago, Han Qi took a beautiful picture of the snow-capped mountains through the window with his mobile phone.
They are different from the snow-capped mountains in Tibet. The snow-capped mountains in Tibet are formed due to high altitudes. The foot of the mountain is generally not covered with snow. However, the snow-capped mountains photographed here are all covered with snow, and there are no edges or corners visible on the peaks.
All wrapped in snow.
And the edge is not land, but ocean.
The towering snow peaks in the sea have a unique and majestic beauty.

The airport is in the city of Longyearbyen, the capital of Svalbard.
"Svalbard" means cold coast. The place Longyearbyen was first discovered by an American named Longyearby. Of course, Han Qi didn't understand the specific reasons. He only found out about it after listening to Ingrid's introduction.
But now it's under Norwegian management, which is definitely a good thing.
After getting off the plane, Ingrid went straight to the post office at the airport, wanting to buy some postcards to send back to Oslo. Han Qi followed her slowly, wanting to appreciate some of the northernmost city in the world.
The construction of the airport is not luxurious, it can even be said to be simple, especially this apron.
However, he has never had much hope for Europe's infrastructure, so he is not disappointed.
He often travels in Europe and is already very familiar with European urban construction. If someone comes to Europe thinking that the moon in a foreign country is rounder, then this idea is wrong, because urban construction in China is countless times better than that in Europe.
What impressed Han Qi most about Europe was the relaxed and free atmosphere.
Especially Norway, it is not an exaggeration to say that this place is the richest country in the world. Maybe they do not have as many wealthy people as those in other countries, but they have truly achieved universal prosperity, and there is no real poor person.
"Han, what are you doing? Hurry up!" Ingrid shouted from a distance.
"good."
Han Qi trotted to catch up.
The post office at the airport is not big. It is about 30 square meters after entering. There are two aunties in their 40s and 50s, wearing work clothes.
Ingrid has already bought the postcards and is writing.
Seeing Han Qi come in, she said, "How about you buy a few? Our email system is very good, and you can basically receive it."
"OK."
Anyway, I am waiting for Ingrid, so I might as well buy a few and send them to my family.
There is a picture of Longyearbyen on the postcard, but there is no glacier visible in this photo, only a mountain about ten meters tall and a blue sky.
The aunt gave Han Qi a pen to write a message. While writing, Han Qi said to Ingrid in Mandarin: "I think the photo we took on the plane is more beautiful. The snow-capped mountains on the sea. If such mountains are placed
