Chapter 189 - Maglev Vacuum Pipeline Construction
Beijing, Yiping Road:
A migrant worker carrying his luggage walked along the sidewalk while observing his surroundings.
After arriving before a launderette, the migrant stopped and looked at the old man eating noodles by the entrance. He then asked, "Is this Yiping Road?"
"What road?" The old man looked up and squinted.
"Yiping Road?"
"What did you say?"
"Yiping Road!" the migrant shouted.
"Oh, this is Yiping Road," the old man answered in a blur. After swallowing the noodles in his mouth, he asked, "What are you shouting for?"
"Thank you, old man," the migrant said, massaging his throat. Just as he was about to continue walking, he suddenly thought of something. Turning around, he asked, "Old man, why aren't there any cars on this road?"
"What?"
"I asked! Why are there no cars on this road!"
