Chapter 41 Eurostar

"What? Do you want to go to the European continent for a walk?" At the dinner table, the fat man was so surprised that he didn't even eat the food.

"Yes, it's been two years since I came to the UK, and I have never moved around on the European continent." Yang Jing nodded and said, "I used to have no money to play, but now I have money. If I don't play for a while, I'm so sorry for myself. What do you think, fat man."

The fat man nodded and said, "That's right, I can't brag with my old classmates if I go back, right? Go, go, I support you! When all the matters on my side are handled, I will call you and I will go find you."

The major of Fatty is one of the ace majors of Royal Holloway College, media, so his graduation thesis is much more complicated than that of Yang Jing, a paper like management. He is now working on a project with his supervisor. After finishing this project, his final thesis defense was a formality. So Fatty is still quite busy during this period.

"Well, then, then during this time I'm out, you can take care of your own belly."

"Damn, this is what I'm afraid of. I've only eaten the food you cooked in the past two years, and I'm basically feeling no longer about the food outside. Oh my God, what should I do if you leave me now?" The fat man said with a sad face.

"It's just right to lose weight!" Yang Jing said with a smile.

The fat man added a chicken leg hatefully and stuffed it directly into his mouth. After a few big mouths, he quickly spit out a complete chicken leg bone, and the meat on the chicken leg was eaten like this.

Satisfiedly, he wiped the corner of his mouth with a napkin, and the fat man asked, "Do you know what you need to travel to mainland Europe?"

Yang Jing said, "I was about to ask you this."

The fat man picked up another chopstick and put it in his mouth. He ate it while saying, "The UK has not signed the Schengen Agreement, so although the UK is a major European country, if you want to travel to other countries in the European continent, you still need to apply for a visa. But you don't have to worry, you are an international student and hold a UK long-term residence visa, so it is relatively easy for you to apply for a Schengen visa."

Britain is really a magical country. It may be that the human brain circuit of this country is different from that of other countries, so Britain often does something that makes people feel incredible.

For example, the UK has withdrawn from the EU, and for example, the UK has always insisted on not signing the Schengen agreement.

These are things that make people confused about the reason. Of course, this may also have a lot to do with the arrogance in the bones of the British. After all, it was once the most powerful empire in the world, but now it ranks low. Of course, the British are unwilling to accept this reality, but they still want to be the boss of Europe, so they usually do such incredible things to show their uniqueness.

The fat man swallowed the hazel mushroom in his mouth and continued: "First of all, you need enough money on your bank card. Countries that signed the Schengen agreement in Europe need a deposit certificate. I remember it seems that it is 60 pounds a day. For example, if you go to Germany for ten days, then you need at least 600 pounds on your bank card. The same is true for other countries in the Schengen region. Of course, your current deposit certificate is absolutely fine. People like you who have a deposit of 200,000 pounds will be very welcome to those in the Schengen region. It is easy to sign it out if you apply for half a year or even multiple times a year."

After a pause, the fat man said helplessly: "This is a damn capitalist country, everything is for money!"

Yang Jing smiled and said nothing.

The fat man continued: "With the deposit, you don't have to worry about anything. Take a copy of your passport and photo and apply directly online. It takes about a week for others to apply for a Schengen visa. If you are so rich, you will probably be able to get out in three days."

"Damn capitalist country!" The fat man added indignantly.

"Okay, such a delicious chicken stewed mushrooms can't block your mouth. Eat it quickly. If you don't eat it, I'll eat it all!"

"No price, I'm worried about you if you eat it all!" The fat man looked like an old hen protecting chickens. He opened his hands and directly took the pot of stewed mushrooms over the chicken, and he was very arrogant to dominate this dish and not let you eat it.

Yang Jing didn't think it was offended, so he picked up his bowl, walked to the pressure cooker, scooped two spoons of chicken soup from the pressure cooker, and then slowly returned to his seat and drank the chicken soup.

After eating and drinking, the fat man went to clean up the dishes. After Yang Jing went downstairs to copy his passport, he found two two-inch colored crown-free photos from the drawer, turned on the computer and started applying for a Schengen visa at night.

As Fatty said, rich people are quick to do business in the UK.

Three days later, Yang Jing got the Schengen visa, of course it was a French visa. As long as he obtained the French visa, Yang Jing could go to the twenty-four European countries that signed the Schengen agreement. Yang Jing's first stop was to prepare to go to Paris, France to check it out.

The fastest and most convenient way to transport from London to Paris is undoubtedly the Eurostar train.

The day after getting the visa, the fat man drove Yang Jing to St. Pancras Station, which is located between the British Library and Kings Cross Station. In October 2006, after eight years of renovation, the station finally became the London start station of the Eurostar train.

Yang Jing did not book tickets online in advance, but with his current net worth, he doesn't have to care about those discounted tickets.

The Eurostar ticket price is still very expensive, the most expensive luxury first class ticket price is as high as 360 euros, which is even more expensive than the flight from London to Paris.

However, if you book in advance online, you can even book an ultra-low price ticket of 39.5 euros. Of course, they are all second-class tickets.

Yang Jing was thinking about taking a trip to the European continent in the past few days. Where did he have time to book tickets in advance? If you want to book a ticket with a very low price, you need to book at least three months in advance. Moreover, the time for this kind of ticket is not very good, either the morning bus or the evening bus...

Yang Jing has money now, so he naturally doesn't have to save in this regard. He spent 290 euros in a luxurious way to buy a first-class ticket. After hugging the fat man, he got on the bus directly after passing the security check.

Eurostar is very comfortable, the service is good, and the speed is quite fast. Although it is not as fast as the domestic high-speed rail, it only took 2 hours and 22 minutes to arrive at the busiest railway station in Europe - Paris North Station.
