Cheap flights within China can found by using Shenzhen as a hub. It is often 20-30% cheaper to fly from Shenzhen than it is to fly from Hong Kong to a Chinese city, this discount had been even more when the Hong Kong currency was stronger than the RMB.
Thanks to the contacts that Mr. Princeton had provided me, I was given an office at the university as a base for the duration of my stay. I actually had my own private office, a chair, Internet, nice big window; it was the royal treatment.
Mr. Mechanical, Mr. Princeton’s former mentee, had helped me get this space, he also found me accommodations, and I was able to sublet his friend June’s apartment. It was a welcome change from living on the roof and I was grateful.
All of this help came merely from Mr. Princeton’s reputation. Mr. Princeton had asked Mr. Mechanical to help me anyway that he could and help me he did.
I didn’t waste this warm welcome, I was sure to arrive with gifts, and treat to dinner as often as I could. This helped me build a reputation with Mr. Mechanical, and his friends Mr. History and June. Now I am welcome in Ningbo anytime.
