Chapter 953 Returning home:
Baja California in Mexico and California in Country M were originally one state. At first, the entire former state originally belonged to Mexico. Later, when the border between the two countries was set, Mexico was weak, so one state was divided into one. There are two parts, one half belongs to the country M and is called Upper California, and the other half belongs to the country Mexico and is called Baja California.
When cities or towns in some parts of the original integrated California were split up, they became different countries. There was only an isolation net in the middle that served as a national boundary. Residents could also use the national boundary net to play ball.
It is also because the two states of the two countries are close to each other and many major cities are connected by roads or railways. However, Mexico’s policy stipulates that permanent citizens of Country M or those holding a visa from Country M can travel freely to and from Mexico without applying for a Mexican visa. country, so many nationals of country M or tourists holding US visas can enter Mexico directly from country M. Of course, this refers to official channels, and it refers to short-term travel or work. Immigration is not included in that policy, and stowaways are more did not include.
A certain policy in Mexico has, to a certain extent, provided great convenience to tourists who want to travel to Mexico, and has also boosted the tourism industry in certain areas.
Due to a certain policy of Mexico, Mr. Le was naturally one of the beneficiaries. He openly took a tour bus across the border in Santiago City of Country M to visit Mexico. The cities of the two countries were so close to each other that it took a long time. Less than an hour.
After crossing the international border and entering Tijuana, the first city in Baja California, Le Xiao did not travel with the bus. Instead, he went to the local department responsible for managing immigrants to register to prove that he entered the country through official channels and in a formal way. , not illegal entry.
Mexico is a country with Spanish as its official language. Very few locals can speak English. Spanish is the common language in Mexico. Spanish has a sacred status among its citizens. When communicating, if Mexicans write letters in Spanish , only replying with the same text will be recognized by them. Replying in other languages will be considered disrespectful.
The so-called preparedness, at this time, the Spanish that Ms. Le learned on the fly played an extremely important role. Even though she has an oriental face, because she speaks Spanish, when she asks locals for directions or takes a taxi on the street, Everyone received warm and friendly responses and courtesy. When I went to a small store where I bought a map to ask for directions, I was sent to the department that manages port of entry matters for free. When I went to register for the entry period, the officials were very talkative and asked simple questions. After talking about a few topics, I was registered and issued an entry registration certificate.
After getting the official entry registration certificate, which was equivalent to having a pass, Le Xiao's classmate happily ran around the streets and tasted Mexican delicacies where cactus is the staple food.
Mexico is known as the Kingdom of Cactus. It is the country with the most complete varieties of cacti and the widest growing areas in the world. Due to its geographical location and climate, cacti can be seen everywhere across the country.
Mexico is also known as the cactus country. There are a variety of delicacies made from cactus, and cactus can also be said to be a versatile staple food.
In line with the principle of doing as the Romans do when in the countryside, Le Xiao’s classmate tasted no less than twenty kinds of cactus-based snacks. He ate them until he couldn’t eat any more. Then he repeated his old trick and went to find a local family to help him. Buy motorcycles, buy one for two, and one car will be given to the family who comes forward to buy the car as a reward.
There is no shortage of motorcycles in Le’s space, but there are no Mexican license plates. In order to reduce the trouble, he spent money to buy a motorcycle for transportation. With the car, he bought gas, tied up his luggage, and set off in the car. Head straight to the desert area bordering California, Country M.
Most of Mexico's Baja California and Baja California Sur are located on the Mexican Peninsula. Baja California is bordered by California on one side, and faces the sea on the other side with the native camp across the bay. There are not only several rare species on the peninsula. As a cactus variety, Baja California Sur is also rich in agave, the raw material needed for Mexico’s most famous “tequila” wine.
The ultimate goal that Le Xiao decided to go to was Baja California Sur, looking for a finger-shaped cactus that only grows in the desert of Baja California Sur on the peninsula.
Most of Mexico's land is a desert environment, and the peninsula is nothing more than a desert geology. The arable area is limited and there are many types of desert plants.
In line with the principle of not returning empty-handed as this is a treasure land, Mr. Le drove his car to the desert of Baja California, the Cactus Country, according to the planned route. Because sometimes it was necessary to avoid it, he did not enter Mexico until the 18th, the third day after entering the country. In the uninhabited areas of the desert, they began to collect plants unscrupulously.
When she entered the desert, it was like entering an uninhabited land. She collected plants along the way and moved towards Baja California Sur on the peninsula.
Classmate Le "disappeared" in California, country M. Wu Gang couldn't find her and was furious. Milo didn't use hacking technology until the 20th to search for her entry registration information in Baja California, Mexico, and discovered that the child had entered Mexico. After registering with the authorities, there was no trace of it. I was very relieved and did not run away. I ended my trip and returned to my country.
Wu Gang waited until the 25th and still couldn't find his target. He had to announce that his tracking had failed, gave the local young people he hired a sum of money, terminated the employment relationship, and took his manpower to Myanmar.
When Milo Tuhao and Wu Gang left Country M one after another, the "missing" classmate Le was still "researching" plants and small animals within the boundaries of Baja California, and did not enter Baja California Sur until the 26th.
While Mr. Le was happily studying plants in America, people in China were busy with their work. Ji Shao and others returned to Beijing one after another at the end of the first year. Hua Shao, Ji Shao and Xin Wu Shao ran to find Xuan Xuan as soon as they arrived in Beijing. Don't take the return gift from their family, and send someone back to the family as soon as you get it.
Many of them are just idlers in Beijing. Miss Le from the Immortal Medical Sect has not returned from abroad. They are even more idle. They go to enjoy the scenery, sneak out to play outside the city, or secretly think about this autumn's ancient martial arts competition. Who should I choose to be a target for?
In fact, many young masters really wanted to find Mr. Yan, but they heard that the guy went on a mission at the beginning of the second month of the lunar calendar. He couldn't even find his shadow, so the matter of looking for Mr. Yan was dropped.
Colonel Yan was in a bad mood after trying to talk to the beautiful young man from the Chao family. In order to avoid his birthday, he hid in the army the day before his birthday and led the team on a mission after his birthday.
The beautiful young man was angry at Young Master Yan. He had no time to care whether that guy was in a good mood or not. He had already forgotten Mr. Yan and was busy with his own affairs every day.
While others were busy, the embassy of one country in China also accepted a commission from a big boss of the country and was busy receiving several gifts and going through customs entry procedures.
Lefu and Zhou Qiufeng prepared for spring sowing just like the farmers. They planted sweet potato seedlings in early February, sown early rice seeds, and then planted corn, beans and so on.
The season is getting closer to April, and Le Xiaoxiao has stayed in the desert long enough to collect a wide variety of American desert-type plant seedlings. After entering Baja California Sur, he was not so greedy and went straight to the goal. It only took three days. He rushed to the southern and southeastern areas of Baja California Sur and spent two days searching to find the finger-shaped cactus he was looking for.
The finger-shaped cactus is like a stick with burrs, growing in clusters. Its appearance is similar to that of a stick-shaped or finger-shaped cactus. The most amazing thing is that they can move on their own to find a suitable growing environment. When a cactus plant leaves its original place and finds a new place to land, the old plant will die quickly, and then the new seedlings will provide water and nutrients for the new seedlings to grow. The death process is also the rebirth process, which is the most common process in the plant world. Great contribution and sacrifice.
And because they always grow in clusters, forming patches, and have many burrs, animals will not eat them, and they will block the way of livestock or human planting, so they are not popular in the local area. In order to protect large farms and pastures, they Area, Dali destroyed them, their survival has been seriously threatened, and they are already facing the crisis of extinction.
In the spirit of preserving seeds, Le Yun collected some of them and put them into the space. At the same time, she also poached some and brought them to more remote desert areas for planting so that they could reproduce.
After finding the Giant Column and Finger Cactus she was looking for, she no longer stayed, walked out of the desert, went to the settlement and paid someone to drive a car and drove back to Tijuana, the capital of Baja California, on the highway on the morning of April 1. Rush to Tijuana and play in the sand sea. At night, you can safely catch a little fox on a remote beach in an uninhabited area and let him go into the sea to catch seafood and hunt for treasures.
For the delicious sea snail soup, the little fox did not hesitate to go into the sea and worked all night, catching more than a dozen sea snails, conches, prawns, crabs and clams. Unfortunately, he did not catch any valuable treasures. Only a few pieces of shells that could be used as fossils and dozens of pieces of relatively ordinary and relatively recent pottery and porcelain were found.
There were no ancient ships sunk nearby, and Le Xiao’s classmates no longer persisted in searching for undersea treasures. They went to the uninhabited area near the sea to collect shells and dig plants. In the evening, they returned to the city to find delicacies made with cactus. They returned to the airport very late and went to the duty-free shop. I bought Mexico’s famous specialty liquor “Tequila”, checked in my luggage, waited until the early morning of the 3rd local time to check in, and boarded the plane after 1:30.
The plane was from Mexico City - Tijuana - Songhai City, China. People taking the flight from Mexico City had to transfer on the way. The plane took off at 2:30 a.m. local time and will arrive after about 6:50 a.m. China time. Purpose, the total flight time is about 11 hours.
It’s easy to get bored on a long flight, but Mr. Le didn’t think so. He took a nap first, and then studied the books he brought with him. As for chatting with others, there was no such thing, because the person sitting next to him should be a foreigner on a business trip, busy with work. So she and the passengers sitting next to her were busy working while the other was reading, each doing their own thing without affecting each other, and they were very harmonious.
When Le's flight took off from Mexico, Mr. Liu, who was originally a "good student" at Qingdao University, took his luggage back to the garrison area, then rushed to the train station and took the high-speed train to E North.
Mr. Liu took the high-speed train to E Beihan City first. After arriving, he did not stay in the hotel and went to the Han City Garrison District to communicate with the bosses in the military district.
The Passenger Iron Bird that Le was aboard experienced a flight experience from darkness to day to night, crossing the vast and boundless ocean, and flew to Songhai International Airport, landing safely at 7:00 China time.
Le Yun was so happy to finally set foot on the soil of the motherland. After leaving the airport, she waited for her luggage to come out, rushed to the train station with her belongings, and took the high-speed train from Songhai City to Beichang City that departed at 8 o'clock to go home.
