The two children were exhausted both physically and mentally and were still sleeping. Cheng Yu asked Ekarina to take care of them while he went downstairs to find a supermarket and purchased some food and water.
Of course, there are also five boxes of vodka, which is already the maximum amount that can be stored in the trunk of this car. Otherwise, Cheng Yu really wants to bring more for the border sentries.
It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon when he came back, and Dian Dian and Yinova had just woken up. Cheng Yu briefly communicated with them and took the two children to say goodbye to Yekarina.
The distance from Ulan-Ude to the Russian-Mongolian border, where Cheng Yu once crossed the border to Sukhbaatar, is about 1,670 kilometers. Based on the road conditions in Eastern Siberia, it should take two hours to arrive.
Well, the main reason is that the road from Ulan-Ude to the border guard station is easier to walk. Unlike last time, when Cheng Yu followed Vladimir across Lake Baikal, the initial stretch of the road was quite bumpy.
Before setting out on the road, Cheng Yu called Vladimir and asked him to communicate with the people at the sentry station. Vladimir naturally agreed without any hesitation.
The journey went smoothly, and it even arrived at the sentry station a little earlier than Cheng Yu expected, taking only one hour and forty minutes.
A captain received Cheng Yu. When he saw Cheng Yu with two children, he couldn't help but frowned.
The captain asked Cheng Yu to stay at the post and wait while he went out to call Vladimir.
After repeatedly confirming that Cheng Yu was not an outlandish human trafficker, and that the two children were entrusted to him by Cheng Yu's friend, and that the friend had passed away, the captain returned to the outpost.
He didn't hide it, but patted Cheng Yu on the shoulder and said: "Brother, I'm sorry, I was not sure about the situation of these two children just now, so I went to Vladimir to find out more. Look at you
At such a young age, you are able to travel thousands of miles with your two children for your friends. Thank you for your hard work."
Cheng Yu was not too surprised. The officer left them and left in a hurry. He had roughly guessed something. The captain had been away for a long time, so Cheng Yu was even more sure that the captain must be worried.
A child.
And this is also a manifestation of loyalty to their duties. At least they will not let go of those who have really committed heinous crimes.
Cheng Yu smiled and waved his hand, telling the captain that he had brought several boxes of vodka for his friends here.
"Because there isn't much free space in the car, it can only fit five boxes. I originally wanted to bring more."
Cheng Yu led the captain officer to the back of his car and opened the trunk door.
The captain was overjoyed and quickly called two soldiers to remove the vodka from the car.
"Vladimir will settle the customs clearance fees for the three of us with you." Cheng Yu said, "Because we need to get to Ulaanbaatar as soon as possible after we pass, and the two children need to rest early, so I won't be here.
We’ve stayed here too long. I wonder if it’s convenient for you to take us through the customs now?”
The captain was stunned. Generally speaking, most of the people brought by Vladimir would stay here for one night, because once they reach this place, it is basically considered safe. People like Cheng Yu who are anxious to cross the border are not.
Common.
But looking at the two children, the captain also felt that what Cheng Yu said was reasonable, so he nodded and said: "I will take you to the sentry post myself now. However, after you passed the customs, you have not gone to Ulaanbaatar now."
The train has arrived, how do you plan to leave?"
"I think we should be able to find someone willing to take us to Ulaanbaatar after we go there. It's just a matter of spending some money."
The captain waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Sukhbaatar, those who have cars are either from the army or local rich people. They will not go to Ulaanbaatar for a little money. Although the distance is not far,
The road is really not easy to walk on.”
Cheng Yu also frowned slightly and asked, "Is there a place that sells cars in Sukhbaatar? Anyway, I still need to buy a car when I get to Ulaanbaatar."
The captain thought for a while and said, "Although there is, it's hard to say whether that car dealer can sell you a car immediately after your time has passed. Well, you tell Vladimir and let him add three
Ten thousand rubles, I will let you drive your own car through the customs. I will replace your car with a Mongolian license plate. Let me also make it clear to you that just buying the license plate will cost me close to thirty thousand rubles, and I will not
I won’t make any extra money from you.”
Cheng Yu was overjoyed and said, "I'll ask Vladimir to transfer an additional fifty thousand rubles to you."
The captain officer immediately arranged for people to help Cheng Yu remove the Ulan-Ude license plate from the car, replace it with a Mongolian license plate, and then put the entire car directly over.
After passing the customs, they drove all the way for nearly four hours. At around 8 o'clock in the evening, Cheng Yu and his two children finally arrived in Ulaanbaatar.
Although Ulaanbaatar is the capital of a country, it is really too poor. The last time Cheng Yu stayed at the best hotel in Ulaanbaatar, the Blue Sky Tower Hotel, he had already asked the front desk about it. In fact, even if
Even if you don't have an ID, you can still get a room. At that time, Cheng Yu thought that he would come back sooner or later to solve the troubles of these mercenaries, so he asked more about it to leave an extra escape route for himself.
.I just didn’t expect this back road to be opened so early.
Parking the car in the parking lot of the Blue Sky Building Hotel, Cheng Yu told the two children to wait patiently in the car for his return, and then he strode towards the hotel lobby.
After finding the manager on duty, Cheng Yu negotiated a price with him, and the manager on duty quickly helped him get a room card.
The U.S. dollars that Cheng Yu had brought with him before worked. With only two hundred U.S. dollars, he solved the problem of not being able to produce his passport.
After returning to the car, Cheng Yu did not rush upstairs. Instead, he left the hotel with his two children, found a place to eat, and then returned to the hotel with his two children.
Firstly, the two children were already hungry. The food and water in the car were not serious meals after all. Secondly, Cheng Yu was also a little worried about the hotel. After he got the room card,
He went upstairs and did some tricks at the door of the room. If someone opened the door after he left, Cheng Yu would find it immediately when he came back. Cheng Yu had to be more careful with Zhuang Yi's two children.
After coming back, Cheng Yu checked his hands and feet at the door. Everything was normal. It seemed that the manager on duty had no intention of playing any tricks with him. Cheng Yu then moved in with his two children with peace of mind.
A night of silence.
After having breakfast with the two children at the hotel, Cheng Yu led them on the road again.
The distance from Ulaanbaatar to Zamyn-Uud is more than 500 kilometers, but there is always a road, which is much easier to travel than the road from Sukhbaatar to Ulaanbaatar.
But the so-called highways are definitely not comparable to the domestic highways. These more than 500 kilometers of roads only take more than four hours or at most five hours in China, but here, Cheng Yu also drove until night
It was after seven o'clock before we entered this small town called Zamyn-Uud.
Cheng Yu had really never been to this place, so when he entered this small town, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed.
Except for the architectural features, most of the houses in the town have typical Russian or Mongolian styles. In many other aspects, they are almost the same as back home. There are Chinese signs or guidance everywhere, which also gave Cheng
Very convenient.
After finding a hotel that looked pretty good, Cheng Yu originally planned to tell the staff that his bag had been stolen and that he and his two children's passports had been lost. He needed to go to Ulaanbaatar tomorrow to find a replacement at the embassy.
But unexpectedly, when he arrived at the front desk of the hotel, the other person just asked him "Chinese?" in heavily accented Chinese, without mentioning anything about documents or anything like that.
After paying the money—Cheng Yu had already exchanged U.S. dollars for some tugriks on the way—the hotel staff directly opened a room for Cheng Yu without even asking how many people would be staying in his room.
Probably the Mongolians feel that the Chinese are far richer than they are, and life in China is much better than in Mongolia. There will never be anyone who has nothing to do and comes to Mongolia to work as a gangster.
After settling the two children, Cheng Yu left the hotel and went to Zamyn-Uud Railway Station alone. Tomorrow he would sneak into the platform with his two children and have to climb on the train. He had to know the train station in advance.
Condition.
In Cheng Yu's imagination, as the Mongolian border town closest to China and the only two train stations in Mongolia close to China, at least some soldiers will be stationed here, and the security should be relatively tight.
But when he arrived at Zamyn-Uud Railway Station, Cheng Yu discovered that this railway station was really small and pitiful. The railways entering and exiting the station were basically completely exposed to broad daylight. Anyone could walk directly to the railway anytime, anywhere.
, it is so easy to get into the car without any need to cover up.
No one cares at all.
Cheng Yu was a little confused, but he soon understood.
As far as Mongolia is concerned, China is right next door. Whether it’s illegal immigration or committing crimes, the pressure is basically all on the Chinese side. That’s why the Chinese side needs to be on strict guard, but on the Mongolian side, they don’t even bother to show off.
Did it.
But this gave Cheng Yu great convenience.
After returning to the hotel, Cheng Yu turned on his mobile phone.
WeChat rang three times in succession. Cheng Yu took a look and saw that they were all messages from Xue Changyun.
The first one is that at around one o'clock in the afternoon, Xue Changyun told Cheng Yu that the batch of supplies he purchased in Ulaanbaatar was already on the train, and the train had already departed.
The second message was sent at around four o'clock in the afternoon. Xue Changyun probably saw that Cheng Yu had not replied and asked him if he could arrive at Zamyn-Uud station in time the next day.
The third message was sent half an hour ago. Xue Changyun asked Cheng Yu to contact him.
Cheng Yu replied: We have arrived in Zamyn-Uud. I just went to the train station to check. The management here is so relaxed that there are almost no obstacles. It should not be difficult to get on the train.
Xue Changyun almost kept holding his phone, waiting for news from Cheng Yu, so he immediately replied.
——Thank God, you finally replied. Then, I will be waiting for you at Erlian. My batch of goods is placed in the extra No. 18 carriage. You will be in that carriage tomorrow. When the time comes,
I will take the car there myself to unload the goods.
——Thank you for your work. See you tomorrow.
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Yu asked the two children to take a bath first, then took a bath himself and went to bed early.
Early the next morning, Cheng Yu went out to buy some breakfast. When he came back, the two children were already awake.
The three of them had breakfast, and it was around nine o'clock. There was less than an hour left before the train from Ulaanbaatar to Hohhot departed.
Cheng Yu took his two children, carried the ashes of their father, Zhuang Yi, on his back, and walked to Zamyn-Uud train station with some snacks and water in his hand.
