The two went back to pack up that evening.
This was their first time visiting a big city, and they were filled with fantasies about Shanghai before leaving.
Xu Wanxia, in particular, was overjoyed when she heard that her brother and Lin Yifeng were going to take her to Shanghai.
Backstage in the morning, the four of them arrived at the train station, carrying large and small bags, and boarded the train.
Lin Yifeng booked soft sleeper berths for everyone on the trip to Shanghai, and the three of them were still very excited after boarding the train.
Seeing the three of them looking happy, Lin Yifeng smiled and reminded them.
"Two days and one night."
"It will take a long time."
"You can kill time yourselves."
These days, there are no direct trains from Makino to Shanghai. They have to take a long, roundabout train journey and arrive in Shanghai around noon the next day.
On the train, the group played cards and drank beer, having a great time in their private room.
Instead of relaxing with them after getting on the bus, Xu Wanxia picked up a book and started studying diligently in the aisle.
When Lin Yifeng came out of the private room, he passed by and showed concern.
"What are you looking at?"
Xu Wanxia smiled brightly, her eyes curving into crescents.
"Study hard, Brother Feng."
Lin Yifeng took a closer look and saw that Xu Wanxia was studying a book about accounting. Judging from the number of pages she was flipping through, she must have already learned quite a bit.
Lin Yifeng had heard about this matter before.
Since the Xu siblings started dealing with Wallace and Mixue Ice Cream, they have been studying management-related topics.
Lin Yifeng learned about this from Guo Fengsheng.
The brother and sister would often ask him for advice on various issues, and Guo Fengsheng would give them some experience and suggestions in this regard.
It can be said that in their spare time, these two are also working hard to improve themselves.
Lin Yifeng smiled and patted Xu Wanxia's head, encouraging her to continue studying.
Lin Yifeng had no other thoughts on this.
For him, this is also a good thing.
Once his businesses gradually take shape, having trusted confidants manage them will definitely save him more trouble than hiring outsiders.
Seeing the siblings quietly improving themselves behind the scenes gave Lin Yifeng some confidence to entrust them with more real power in the future.
This train journey is quite long.
Many people travel from Muye to Shanghai, but very few are tourists like Lin Yifeng and his group; most are people going to Shanghai to work.
Apart from the private rooms for soft and hard sleeper berths, the aisles leading to the hard seats were packed with people.
Many people who were preparing to go to Shanghai to find work were crowded in the aisle waiting for the train to arrive at its final stop.
After spending the night on the train, it finally stopped at Shanghai Railway Station at noon the next day.
As soon as they got off the train, Xu Qingyi and Guo Fengsheng froze on the spot.
Xu Wanxia, who was carrying a small bag on her back, also stared wide-eyed in amazement.
"Is this what a big city is like?"
"So many people!"
There weren't many people in their carriage to begin with.
Only a handful of people got off at this stop.
In contrast, in other carriages, countless people poured out, and within just two minutes of getting off the train, the exit was packed with people, making it completely impassable.
Compared to a few months ago when she was timid and shy around people, Xu Wanxia has improved a lot since meeting Wallace. She is no longer as socially anxious when she sees so many people.
Instead, she turned around and excitedly shouted to Lin Yifeng.
"Brother Feng! Brother Feng!"
"Look!"
"So many trains!"
When Xu Qingyi and Guo Fengsheng turned around, they saw at least seven or eight railway tracks behind them, between the gaps in their train tracks.
On the overpass spanning the railway, many people carrying large and small bags were walking towards the platform behind the station.
Guo Fengsheng and Xu Qingyi were also shocked.
Back in Makino City, their stations had a maximum of four train tracks, and the entire station only had two platforms.
The railway network in Shanghai is extensive, and the number of train stations is countless.
The most important thing is people!
Normally, they only see so many people rushing to their destinations at the train station at the beginning of spring and after the Spring Festival.
Now that I'm in Shanghai, it feels like the Spring Festival travel rush all the time.
Lin Yifeng stood on the periphery of the crowd, giving instructions to the people around him.
"Take good care of your own things."
"There are a lot of people now, let's wait until there are fewer people before we leave."
"Remember to keep your ID card safe. If you really can't, give it to me. Don't lose it."
The three nodded vigorously like chicks pecking at rice, following closely behind Lin Yifeng.
Although they each managed a considerable number of people in Makino City, they cultivated their own self-confidence.
But the unfamiliarity of arriving in a big city for the first time still filled them with fear of everything unknown around them.
As the crowds gradually thinned out, Lin Yifeng led the three of them through the underground passage to the exit.
After their tickets were checked, everyone walked off the platform.
The bustling scene outside the train station made the three of them widen their eyes once again.
The huge square was packed with people, and in the distance, towering buildings stood tall among the many structures.
Guo Fengsheng looked at the endless train station behind him, with the three large red characters "Magic City Station" on the roof, and swallowed hard.
The Xu siblings stared blankly at the tram on the street.
At that moment, the three of them felt as if it were all unreal.
Just a few months ago, they had no idea what the world was like or what the future held.
