Generally speaking, because a large number of people across the country are online at the same time in high-speed rail ticket purchasing software, the data in it is often delayed and only the previous data is displayed.

For example, many flights show that there are about one or two second-class seats left.

But when Li Shu clicked on the payment page for these second-class seats, it didn't work for some reason.

The system will tell you that the tickets for this flight have been sold out, and you will be automatically refunded or converted to standing tickets.

This is what happens when the system delays data time.

In fact, this situation is very common. After all, during the Spring Festival travel period, the vast majority of people use the same ticket purchasing software. When the number of people online at the same time was the largest, it once reached the terrifying hundreds of thousands!

What is the concept of hundreds of thousands of people?

It's like a concept that a narrow house of tens of square meters can accommodate thousands of people.

In this case, it is very impressive that the system can maintain normal operation without crashing.

As for data delays and delayed refreshes, these are just child's play.

Li Shu also knew that at this time, almost all the tickets were gone. After all, at this time, everyone wanted to go home.

Many of them, even standing tickets, have been sold out.

And now, the station tickets for the six o'clock high-speed train have been sold out, but there are still two second-class tickets left?

Li Shu estimated that this situation should be exactly the same as what he encountered before, and it should be a delay in the system.

Because the current ticket purchasing system is already very user-friendly, in order to avoid illegal ticket grabbing operations by third parties such as scalpers and automated program purchases, a standby function has been introduced.

To put it simply, this function is equivalent to queuing. If there are remaining tickets due to various reasons, such as refunds by others, etc., the opportunity for these tickets will be given to those waiting for tickets as soon as possible.

Therefore, even if someone does refund the ticket, the ticket cannot be bought by oneself. The system must have automatically reserved it and given it to the people waiting in line behind.

Although I thought so in my heart, it was unlikely that I could buy a ticket, and I had already made plans to go back standing. After all, it was only three or four hours in total, which was nothing.

But still with the attitude of giving it a try, Li Shu clicked in to see if he could pay successfully.

After adding the second-class ticket and clicking to pay directly, Li Shu seemed to have already seen in his mind the message "The second-class ticket for the flight you selected is insufficient..." that will be displayed later.

But what surprised him was that the picture he expected did not happen, but instead a string of fonts like this!

"There are two second-class tickets left for your choice, please choose a payment method..."

Li Shu was directly redirected to the payment page.

Sure enough, there was a surprise for Li Shu. What kind of plane did he get, and he really got a bargain for himself?

Before, I had the attitude of giving it a try, but I never expected that I would actually get a small bargain.

I really didn’t expect it. Maybe it’s because the number of people waiting is small, and those waiting in line have already been allocated tickets, because the standing tickets are no longer available and sold out. It is estimated that many people are too lazy to wait and buy standing tickets directly.

Then at this time, two people suddenly refunded their tickets, which was a good mistake for Li Shu just now.

Although this leakage is not big, you must know that generally speaking, the price of standing tickets and second-class tickets are exactly the same.

It costs more than 200 and nearly 300 yuan.

Rather than jostling with others like taking the subway, it is of course better to sit down and feel comfortable.

After all, although Li Shu didn't care much about these three or four hours, the price still had to match the value.

The price of nearly 300 is only enough for standing room. It is better to just take a ride and at least it can reach the doorstep directly.

And it’s more than two hundred yuan.

While taking the subway, I had already bought the ticket.

When I refreshed it again, there was no ticket for the high-speed train at 6 pm tomorrow, the 28th of the year.

There are standing tickets for first-class and second-class seats, and there are no tickets left.

The Spring Festival Transport, which is worthy of being the first of the three major national sports, is really terrifying!

Li Shu took a look at the subway line, and it happened that the direction he was taking was close to the high-speed rail station. He still needed to transfer to two lines, and he could reach it after passing about ten stations.

Li Shu decided to find a place near the high-speed rail station to have a look tonight.

I simply changed to the subway line and headed directly towards the high-speed rail.

After I bought the ticket, I felt much more at ease. It seems that I always need something to exist in my heart, something that can make me feel at ease at all times.

After all, this is my hometown, and I still have strong emotions. I should also act as a filial act towards my adoptive parents as future generations.

Two hours later, the subway arrived directly at the high-speed rail station.

The next step off the subway was the high-speed rail station. Li Shu was careless. The number of people at the high-speed rail station was like a wave of gravel.

To be honest, it still takes some effort to get out of the high-speed rail station. The high-speed rail station has several floors and the exit is like a maze, which is too complicated.

The most important thing is that the flow of people is simply too much, so much that it doesn’t look like much.

Just to go up the stairs, I'm afraid you'll have to queue up.

There were people in a hurry dragging their luggage, large and small, all around.

After getting off the subway, Li Shudang decided to take the subway and leave the high-speed rail station first. There were too many people. He went to the next station to spend the night and come back when the train departs tomorrow.

Li Shu breathed a sigh of relief when he got on the subway again. Just after getting off the subway, the high-speed rail station was even more crowded than the subway. It was simply not a place where people could stay.

After finding a subway station near the high-speed rail station and getting off, Li Shu looked around and looked for a hotel to stay in first.

I navigated on my phone for a while. There seemed to be only one hotel around, and there seemed to be no choice. By the time Li Shu passed by, there happened to be one single room left in the hotel!

I have to say that Li Shu was really lucky today, and everything was clever!

Through an awkward conversation with the front desk, Li Shu learned that the people who came here were all waiting to take the high-speed rail tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. They thought there were too many people around the high-speed rail station and came here in search of peace and quiet.

But it is true that although the neighborhood is not very prosperous, this hotel is very close to the subway entrance. Business is booming throughout the year, probably before the Chinese New Year.

The price per night is 140, including breakfast.
