Chapter 279: Traveling on a Rest Day
Everyone had gathered and the pick-up bus drove over from a nearby special parking lot.
I saw a handsome young man from China talking with several national team leaders. He should be the general dispatcher for this pick-up mission.
But the first thing Jun Qingqing noticed was the thing in his hand.
Yes, the mobile phone invented by Motorola engineer Martin Cooper in 1973.
To put it bluntly, it is what the Chinese people in later generations call "big brother". If you think about the trajectory of time development, it will take another 10 years for this to become popular in China.
Well... no wonder they were so confident that the bus would arrive at the right time after all the people were gathered.
After all, news travels quickly.
Everyone got on the bus one by one according to their country. Since the number of Chinese people was relatively large compared to other countries, they were actually allocated a separate bus in the end.
After everything was arranged, the car started and took everyone to the hotel where they would be staying.
Everyone in the car took in the scenery along the way. Even Jun Qingqing, who had fallen asleep as soon as she got on the car, stayed awake for the first time.
During this period, the United States had long since joined the ranks of developed countries.
When we arrived in the city, the scenery changed to tall buildings rushing by on both sides, and it was very common for families to own private cars.
After the war ended in 1945, the United States invested heavily in many emerging industrial sectors, major scientific research projects, and modern public construction.
Therefore, just by passing by busy streets, parks and other places, and stopping to wait for the traffic light, you can find street performances everywhere.
If you open the car window, you can hear the cheers of the onlookers.
Watching, listening, thinking...suddenly Jun Qingqing laughed and asked what she was thinking about?
Of course, despite the glamorous side of the United States, there was one thing that was unavoidable for the United States in the 1970s.
That is what people in later generations refer to as the economy of other countries in this era.
As soon as these words appear, I believe many people know what they are saying: the country's economy has been in a stage of stagflation during this period.
That’s right, this word was even used by netizens in later generations to tease their friends as “retarded”.
In the final analysis, the capitalist world in this era has entered a three-way confrontation, and it is they themselves who are making their way forward increasingly narrow.
These are just things to think about, they are not what we need to consider at the moment. After all, they are completely unrelated, so what is there to think about?
When you come to the beautiful country, just treat it as a few-day tour with a group in the future.
It was not until the bus stopped and the door opened that Jun Qingqing came to her senses and saw that the hotel where she would be staying for the next period of time had arrived.
Jun Mulan on the side was still teasing: "I don't know what you are thinking about. You are so engrossed in thinking about it. I guess if it weren't for the loud noise around you, you might not be able to come back to your senses. Okay, get ready to get off the car."
Jun Qingqing chuckled twice to hide her embarrassment, then got off the car with her brothers and picked up her luggage.
As soon as you enter the lobby, you can feel the difference between this place and the Land of Sakura.
Taking into account everyone's fatigue level during this period, the organizers simply set aside three days of rest.
Everyone who heard this decision breathed a sigh of relief.
According to the assigned room numbers, everyone took their luggage and couldn't wait to go back to the room immediately. Taking a car right after getting off the boat really made everyone exhausted.
I have to say that with the Sakura Country room as a comparison, now seeing the guest rooms in front of me, which are more than one level higher in size and comfort, as well as the relatively advanced bathroom facilities, it is hard not to give a high evaluation.
On the first day of the rest period, almost everyone chose to rest in their rooms and sleep until they woke up naturally.
The next day, Jun Qingqing met her brothers in the lobby, feeling refreshed.
Oh, this idiom should only be used to describe people like them.
After all, on the way to the United States, apart from the fact that we had to sleep on the boat, how was our food, clothing and daily necessities compromised?
Perhaps the most inconvenient thing is that before everyone's realm is improved, Jun Qingqing will have to go to the corresponding person's room and set up the isolation array.
Before going out for a walk, the first thing to do is to plan the route and clarify the goal.
As usual, Jun Qingqing ran to the front desk to inquire.
After all, she had been here quite a few times after several decades.
The general location and more representative attractions can still be clearly distinguished.
For example, Times Square, Chinatown, the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, and Wall Street.
As we asked and answered questions, the information we wanted to know was explained in great detail by the front desk staff.
The next question is the choice of travel mode.
With everyone's unanimous vote, we decisively chose to rent a car.
This service can be fully handled at the hotel.
Taking into account driving issues and familiarity with road conditions, we again unanimously agreed to rent a car with a local driver.
The vehicle chosen is a medium-sized bus that can accommodate 15 people at a time.
They are really lucky to have a driver on the bus, as the business of adding drivers has only just started.
After all, the entire car rental industry has only been around here for less than a year.
The hotel handles this service simply because most of the people who can stay in the hotel are not local residents, so there are many situations where they are unclear about the route.
So the boss came up with this solution.
