Chapter 137 You Are Already a Mature Travel System(1/2)
In addition to Paris, there is another place in France known to many people, called Provence, and the name of its region is Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur.
Chen Xing first knew this place because of lavender. Isn’t it often said on the Internet that the hometown of French lavender is this place?
The French place names are as simple and crude as the names they give to Western food. Just put the names of the three most popular provinces in this region together, and almost all the popular attractions in Southern France are also in these three places.
Due to the popularity of these three places, people who come to France almost all choose to go south after visiting Paris.
Is Provence the place Chen Xing is going to? After all, this is not the season when lavender is in bloom.
He is going to the Alps, where this year's Winter Photography Festival is being held. There are many photographic works sent by photographers from all over the world. It is a photography event in France second only to the Arles Photography Festival.
The Alps are actually very famous.
But it is not this region that is famous, but a candy brand. However, this company was not established by the French, but by the Italians. The Alps are a large mountain range that spans many European countries, and the French do not have the copyright here.
.
The train Chen Xing took departed from Paris at 7.50 and was bound for the Nice area in the Alpes-Maritimes.
There are a lot of people on the train, and a large part of them are going to Nice, and a very large proportion of them are tourists. Because Nice is not only the fifth most populous city in France, but also the second most popular tourist destination in France after Paris.
City.
It was a bit cold in the morning in Paris at the end of November, and the Gare de Lyon still smelled like urine. I don’t know where it came from.
He endured the smell and got into the car. As soon as he sat down, he saw two policemen pressing down a thief passing by in the car. This made Chen Xing sigh once again that the public security in Paris was really bad... Although he had never encountered it himself, he patiently
I keep hearing or seeing things like this all day long.
A person in front of Chen Xing also sighed: "Thieves in Paris go to work really early."
This person is probably in his mid-twenties, and his appearance is probably the one most liked by young artistic women who come to Paris. He has the appearance of the male protagonists of many romantic movies about Paris.
Chen Xing said: "After all, it's the New Year, and I want to have a good year."
"Yes, Christmas is coming soon. You speak French so well. I thought you were a tourist. Hello, my name is Gerald."
"My name is Chen Xing."
Just after introducing myself, another woman came over with a small bag in one hand and a cup of hot coffee in the other, and sat on the seat next to Gerald.
After sitting down, she even shook her long blond, slightly curly hair.
She was wearing a tight sweater and a fur top, which were very short and exposed her waist. She looked slender but powerful. Her lower body was also a tight-fitting light-colored jeans. Her round buttocks made many people in the carriage look this way.
Look over here.
Since you brought coffee in?
What a mistake. You should buy a drink yourself.
After getting up so early this morning, Chen Xing is still a little sleepy.
Paris train stations do not require ticket checking, so even if Chen Xing is carrying a travel bag and a suitcase, he can still have one hand free and walk in elegantly with coffee... Maybe this is French elegance.
At this time, the station staff slowly walked over and started to check the tickets. She moved very slowly. It felt like she was reading the information on the tickets very carefully. It took a long time to read each one, but in fact, the tickets did not contain much information worth paying attention to.
.
As soon as the car started, Chen Xing's eyes blurred for a moment.
【The city is very old, we are very young】
[If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris when you were young, then she will be with you wherever you go in your life, because Paris is a moveable feast]
[Congratulations on getting your talent: writing]
[Many times we can see these world-famous attractions from books, TV, and movies, but we don’t know what they look like in real life. Every trip abroad will allow you to further understand and get closer to the world.
, Eye-opening - the long journey series of missions begins, and every city you visit will give you certain rewards]
[You visited Paris and received cash dollars, which will be transferred to the traveler's bank account later, please pay attention to check]
Damn it!
What Chen Xing has been waiting for for a long time has come true!
When he first got the system and started traveling, he was complaining about the system. Why can't he go to a place and give himself a sum of money?
Can it be called a travel system without such a setting?
After all, he is just a photographer. If you want to make money, you need to gain qualifications. Unlike writers, celebrities, etc., you can become famous all over the country if you suddenly make a hit, and you can make money.
Twenty thousand yuan in a city is not a lot, but it is enough to live anywhere in the world for several days.
Just say that in Paris, 20,000 Chinese dollars can be exchanged for about 2,700 euros, and Chen Xing's daily accommodation fee is only 130, which is completely enough.
In addition, it’s not like Chen Xing can’t make a penny. In the future, he won’t be as frugal as he was in Paris this time. What kind of travel souvenirs, high-end dessert shops, and French restaurants? Chen Xing has it all at once.
I didn’t go because I was afraid it would exceed my budget.
After seeing this reward, Chen Xing leaned back on his seat and breathed a sigh of relief.
He was still thinking about how he had visited so many attractions in Paris, but no system reward had popped up for so many days. It turned out that they were all waiting for him here.
However, the literary talent of the system is quite good, and Chen Xing quite likes what he said.
Paris is a moveable feast...
[This sentence comes from Hemingway]
This sentence from the system suddenly popped up. It was just a simple introduction, but Chen Xing inexplicably felt that the system was looking down on him.
There are so many books in the world, how can I possibly read them all!
Chen Xing is quite aggrieved.
But when I thought about the rich reward this time, my grievance disappeared immediately. I quickly took out the notebook from my backpack, put it on the table in front of me and opened the document.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
He is going to write a travel diary.
In fact, it is not considered a travelogue. It is still the article sent to China National Geographic. Editor Kang urged Chen Xing several times, but he only wrote half of it in such a long time.
It’s too difficult, it’s really difficult to write!
Now that I have acquired writing skills, I can look at what I have written.
I actually wrote this garbage?
Chen Xing was still shocked.
In fact, this writing skill is not as magical as Chen Xing thought. After acquiring this skill, it does not mean that Chen Xing will be good at writing and his books will be 100% sold. This is not the case.
The system used some method to connect the books Chen Xing had read before with his writing.
As soon as Chen Xing wants to write something, Chen Xing will remember a lot of relevant content. He will remember how so and so described this kind of environment, and what he was thinking about when he wrote this paragraph.
By the way, it also strengthened Chen Xing’s writing skills, organizational skills, etc.
Therefore, writing actually requires some talent.
Not everyone has read tens of thousands of books and writes with dexterity.
Gerald saw Chen Xing taking out his notebook and starting to write, and asked curiously: "What are you doing? Are you working?"
He could tell from Chen Xing's constant typing on the keyboard that Chen Xing was not watching movies, playing games or other entertainment. Other than that, the first thing he thought of was work.
"No, I'm writing a travelogue."
"Travel notes? Are you a traveler?"
Chen Xing thought for a moment and said, "I'm still just a student."
"Student, my God, you are so young!"
He couldn't tell Chen Xing's age from Chen Xing's appearance, but he felt that Chen Xing's temperament was not like the students he had met before, and asked again: "So you are studying in Paris?"
"Yes."
As a result, the two began to chat about the security issues in Paris.
The girl looked at Chen Xing with interest.
Gerald must be very handsome in the eyes of Westerners. Many romantic movies like to cast men with his appearance. However, in the eyes of white people, Chen Xing is obviously more charming than Gerald.
.
Just like there are two handsome guys in China chatting, still using Chinese, the most eye-catching one must be the foreigner who speaks Chinese.
"Sorry to bother you, what are you talking about?"
Chen Xing knew she was British from her accent.
Ever since he was reminded by Teacher Zhang at Huaping Girls' High School, he searched the differences between the accents of several English-speaking countries on Station B. Generally speaking, the British accent is the best. In comparison, the American accent is like a regional dialect.
.
If the United States didn't have such a huge influence in the world now, if you went to the UK with an American accent, you would definitely be looked down upon.
Gerald quickly said in English:
"We were talking about the issue of public security in Paris. Every time I go on a business trip to Paris, I discover the lower limit of Paris. I heard that the thieves caught in the carriages were blatantly stealing things."
To be continued...
