Originally, Xu Jianguo could go directly to the train station through the space-time portal, but according to Ma Guoliang's arrangement, he also needed to park the jeep at the train station and hand over the car keys to the station staff for safekeeping.
So he could only wait until the car drove a certain distance before parking it on the side of the road and then putting the car into the space.
He went directly through the space portal and arrived at a small road less than one kilometer away from Davari Railway Station.
After looking around and finding no one else, Xu Jianguo took the jeep out of the space again, got back into the driver's seat and drove towards the train station.
In less than five minutes, he arrived outside the train station.
After parking the car, Xu Jianguo easily found the staff at the train station. After showing his ID, the staff took the car keys from Xu Jianguo and led him to the waiting room.
There were still more than twenty minutes until seven o'clock. The staff asked Xu Jianguo to wait for a moment and then left to do other things.
Five minutes before seven in the morning, Xu Jianguo heard a train whistle in the distance.
At this time, the staff member who had left before came back and brought Xu Jianguo to the platform.
After waiting for a while, a locomotive with white steam coming from the distance came.
"Comrade Xu Jianguo, this train does not have a passenger car. I will arrange for you to go to an empty carriage in the middle. It is usually used for loading and unloading workers, but the loading and unloading of this train is handled by Bingcheng, so you are the only one in the carriage. Please make do with it." said the staff at the train station.
"Okay, no problem, sorry for the trouble!" Xu Jianguo said politely.
The staff member waved his hand, indicating that he was welcome, and then took Xu Jianguo towards the train that was about to stop.
As the train came to a complete stop, the staff at the train station began to inject water into the front of the train.
Under the guidance of the staff, Xu Jianguo boarded an empty carriage located in the middle of the train.
As the staff closed the iron door, the entire carriage was instantly plunged into darkness. Fortunately, Xu Jianguo possessed the Eyes of Time and Space, so he could see clearly even in an environment where he couldn't see his hand in front of him.
Xu Jianguo stood in the carriage and looked around. He found several broken wooden boxes and some sacks scattered in the corner, and there were also some wood chips and cigarette butts everywhere on the ground.
After looking for a long time with a frown, Xu Jianguo really couldn't find a place to stay, so he had no choice but to slip into the space.
Fortunately, after the train departs from Davari, it will not stop at any other stations in the middle and will arrive directly in the Ice City after fifteen hours.
So Xu Jianguo just needs to keep an eye on the time and get back to the carriage before the train stops.
After all, if the people at Bingcheng Station couldn't find him after opening the carriage, it would be difficult to explain.
After returning to the space, Xu Jianguo did not go anywhere. Since he got up too early in the morning, he took a book from the study and went to the bedroom.
After leaning against the head of the bed and reading a book for a while, he yawned and felt sleepy, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
After having a simple bowl of braised beef noodles made by Du Yu at noon, Xu Jianguo went to the study to continue reading.
In the evening, Xu Jianguo asked Du Yu to take Wen Sitian and others to the space, and the family had dinner together.
After dinner, he played with his son and daughter for a while, and bought a rocking horse for Lele in the system mall, which was similar to the one he bought for Funniu before.
When the rocking horse appeared in front of Lele, the little girl's eyes widened immediately, and then she staggered to Xu Jianguo and hugged her father's thigh.
Xu Jianguo bent down and picked her up. The little girl took the initiative to kiss him on the face, which almost made him snot. He hugged Lele and giggled.
When Wen Sitian and the three girls saw him like this, they were immediately filled with contempt. Funiu even pulled Wenwen over and covered his eyes, saying that she was worried that her nephew would learn bad things.
Xu Jianguo didn't care at all. He picked up the little girl and put her on the rocking horse. As the horse rocked, Lele's happy laughter suddenly rang out in the courtyard.
As time came to 9:30 in the evening, there was still half an hour before arriving in Ice City. Xu Jianguo said goodbye to his family reluctantly, then quickly left the space and returned to the carriage.
After finding a slightly cleaner sack to sit on, Xu Jianguo took out a box of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket, lit one, and slowly started smoking.
After smoking and waiting for a while, Xu Jianguo felt that the train was gradually slowing down, and then a whistle sounded. He knew that the train was about to arrive at the station.
Sure enough, as the speed of the train slowed down and a sound of metal friction was heard, the train carrying timber stopped steadily at a small train station in Bing City.
After waiting for a while, there was a knocking sound outside the carriage where Xu Jianguo was. He knew that the person who came to pick him up had arrived, so he opened his mouth and answered.
“Crash!”
The train car was pulled open from the outside, and two people were standing outside the car, one wearing the uniform of a train station staff member, and the other wearing a cadre military uniform.
"Comrade Xu Jianguo, I'm from the logistics department of Bingcheng Base. My name is Sheng Hongqi. My superiors asked me to pick you up!" said the man in military uniform.
"Hello, Comrade Sheng Hongqi, I am Xu Jianguo, thank you for your help!" Xu Jianguo said with a smile, then jumped off the carriage.
"Well, we are all comrades, it's too far to talk about this! Come, let me introduce you, this is Wang Rui from Bingcheng Railway Station." Sheng Hongqi said.
After Xu Jianguo said hello to Wang Rui again, he followed the two of them outside.
After arriving outside the station, Sheng Hongqi shook hands with Wang Rui, then took Xu Jianguo into a jeep parked nearby and drove towards Bingcheng Railway Station.
When they were on the bus, Xu Jianguo understood after listening to Sheng Hongqi's introduction that the station they had just visited was the freight station of Bingcheng City, and the one they were going to now was the passenger station.
Xu Jianguo will also be there, boarding the train to Jingzhou.
The car drove for less than twenty minutes before they arrived at the square outside Bingcheng Railway Station. Sheng Hongqi parked the car but didn't get out. Instead, he pulled a train ticket from his jacket pocket and handed it to Xu Jianguo, saying, "Comrade Xu Jianguo, this is your train ticket for a sleeper berth. I have something else to do, so I won't see you off. I wish you a safe journey!"
After Xu Jianguo took the ticket, he stretched out his hand and shook his hand, saying, "Thank you!"
After saying goodbye to Sheng Hongqi, Xu Jianguo jumped out of the jeep and turned to walk towards Bingcheng Railway Station.
