Chapter 199 Finally Arriving in America
Hei Xiazi returned much later than Cheng Feng had anticipated.
It took a full two weeks for the group and Hei Xiazi to return to Golmud.
Huo Ling knew Cheng Feng's plan, so she grabbed Hei Xiazi, who was about to go back to rest, and took him to her new home.
Sitting in the villa's spacious living room, Hei Xiazi looked around and said:
"This place is much more impressive than the old, run-down house!"
Cheng Feng and Huo Ling sat opposite Hei Xiazi. Cheng Feng didn't rush to talk about going to America.
Instead, they inquired why the trip had taken so long.
After hearing this, Hei Xiazi slapped his thigh and said:
"Don't even mention it. If we hadn't been lucky, we might not have made it back this time."
Seeing Hei Xiazi's gritted teeth, Cheng Feng knew they were in real trouble this time.
"What is the specific situation?"
"We encountered a rare case of quicksand burial; we almost ended up being buried alive with the tomb's occupant."
Black Bear said with a wry smile.
The quicksand burial, also known as the sand-accumulated tomb, is a large-scale mechanism invented to prevent tomb robbers.
To be more specific, it involves carefully sifting out fine sand and then painstakingly drying the sifted sand in a pan.
Then it was filled into the interlayer between the tomb passage and the burial chamber, so that if any tomb raiders tried to dig a tunnel to enter the tomb.
The quicksand would flow out like water, eventually filling the entire tomb, allowing tomb raiders to be buried with the tomb owner.
"Quicksand tombs are indeed difficult for ordinary people to deal with. You must have been trapped in the tomb for a long time!"
Cheng Feng could already imagine the scene of them being trapped underground by quicksand.
"That's right, thanks to the little black snake you gave the brothers this time, it was it that helped them find a way out in the end."
The owner of the quicksand tomb probably never imagined that the craftsmen who built his tomb had, as was customary, left him an escape route.
Although Hei Xiazi said there were no people buried with him in this tomb.
This trip was a complete waste; not only did they fail to find any valuables, they almost all perished in the tomb.
But it's good enough that they can come back.
"Blind man, I'll give you a few days off to rest, and then you can come with me to America at the beginning of next month."
Finally, Cheng Feng brought up the real business.
Black Bear leaned back on the sofa and said helplessly:
"I thought Miss Huo had brought me here to interrogate me, but it turns out it's just about this."
No problem, this can be considered a company-funded trip!
Hei Xiazi readily agreed; he used to run away frequently when he followed Chen Pi Asi.
Responsible for opening up overseas sales channels.
After confirming the departure date, Cheng Feng sent someone to the capital to inform Hu Bayi and Wang Pangzi.
These two guys had agreed to go together and attend Cheng Feng and Yang Xueli's wedding.
Cheng Feng had no choice of boarding location and could only set it as Dalian.
This is the only international airport in China that is open to private use.
As for the issues of air tickets and passports, Chen Wenjin will handle them. The Xieling faction still has some influence in Golmud.
As time went by and the beginning of the month drew closer, Cheng Feng also took the opportunity to use his connections to make an international long-distance call.
I explained the plane's takeoff and landing times and some other details to Yang Xueli to avoid the embarrassment of arriving in the United States only to find no one there.
On May 30, 1986, Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi parked their car in front of a hotel in Dalian.
The two attracted a lot of attention when they got out of the car.
In those days, owning a car was extremely rare; most people rode bicycles.
Black Bear, pulling his suitcase, adjusted his sunglasses and said:
"Boss, you've really gone to great lengths! This place isn't cheap!"
"It's not like you have to pay anything. Let's go, let's reserve the room first."
Dalian, as a port city, is far more developed than the remote Golmud.
This hotel just opened this year, and Cheng Feng saw several foreign faces while standing at the entrance.
After spending a considerable sum of money, Cheng Feng booked two rooms.
After being led upstairs by a staff member to put away his luggage, Cheng Feng and Hei Xiazi went out to eat.
When you come to Dalian, how can you not try the local seafood? And at that time, seafood was not as expensive as it is in later years.
Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang arrived in Dalian on the second day, because this hotel was considered a landmark building in the area.
Therefore, the two sides met easily.
"It has to be the Northeast. The cities here are even more impressive than Beijing."
As soon as he entered the hotel, the fat man looked around like a country bumpkin, making Hu Bayi, who was standing to the side, unable to bear to look at him.
Although he was surprised, he only looked furtively, unlike the fat man who was so direct.
"Fatty, Old Hu!"
At this moment, Cheng Feng, who was sitting in the hall drinking tea with Hei Xiazi, saw the two of them and stood up to greet them.
The two people rushed over after seeing Cheng Feng.
At this moment, Hei Xiazi also stood up.
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the two, Cheng Feng patted Hei Xiazi on the shoulder and said:
"Let me introduce you. This is my friend. You can call him Black Bear."
Hu Bayi stepped forward and shook hands with Hei Xiazi, saying:
"Old Cheng's friends are my friends. My name is Hu Bayi, brothers can just call me Lao Hu!"
Then the fat man stepped forward with a smile and said, "My name is Wang Kaixuan, just call me Fatty."
The meeting was very friendly, and after everyone was seated, Cheng Feng poured tea for the two of them.
Last time Hu Bayi and his group came, Group 1 unfortunately went out.
Otherwise, given Hei Xiazi's love of joining in the fun, there might have been one more person on the Demon Kingdom trip.
After chatting for a few minutes, Cheng Feng led the two to check into the hotel.
Now that the two of them have some wealth, staying in a hotel like this for a night is no problem for them.
That evening, the group had some seafood and drinks, but didn't drink as much as they wanted because of their plans for the next day.
Silent all night.
The next morning, Cheng Feng drove the three of them to Dalian Zhoushuizi International Airport.
After passing through layers of checks, I finally boarded the plane bound for the United States.
But this was the first time Hu Bayi and Fatty Wang had ever ridden a commercial airliner.
In particular, Fatty Wang has a fear of heights and was very uneasy on the plane.
In the end, it was only with Hu Bayi's comfort that he was able to withstand the psychological pressure.
After a journey of more than ten hours, the plane finally landed at an airport in the United States.
Cheng Feng and Hu Bayi helped the timid fat man off the plane.
The foreigners' stares along the way made the fat man feel deeply ashamed, and he wished he could shout "Baka!" to boost his morale.
When everyone arrived at the airport exit, Cheng Feng immediately spotted Yang Xueli in the crowd.
She wore a high ponytail, a black leather jacket, and mid-calf boots, looking dashing and heroic.
"Let's go, our people are over there."
After calling out to Hei Xiazi, Cheng Feng led the way towards where Yang Xueli was.
Upon reaching him, Yang Xueli jogged over to Cheng Feng, opened her arms, and hugged him tightly.
Then they naturally started to gnaw on each other.
Black Bear chewed gum and shook his head, sighing:
"Poor Miss Wenjin, your man is too much of a womanizer."
Wang Pangzi and Hu Bayi, who were standing next to him, nodded in agreement.
"Old Cheng is such an enviable guy... It's shameful, how can he kiss in public like that!"
