(PS: Some modifications have been made to the previous article, changing Fengtian to Chifeng.)
"Mom, I'm back!"
As soon as Sun Qianchao got home, he lay down directly on the kang. He was exhausted. He kicked hard all the way. In the end, he broke the previous record and got home in only 16 minutes.
Grandma, who was sitting on the edge of the kang making shoes, saw her son lying on the kang and was a little confused: "Why did you come back so early? I remember you had just gone to work?"
Sun Qianchao didn't even get up: "I'm going on a business trip with my master to deliver goods to Chifeng, Inner Mongolia at noon."
"I guess I won't be able to come back tonight. He asked me to tell you. In addition, you can help me find something to eat and some thick clothes to save me from the cold at night~"
"Oh, why did you go so far in the first place, and also to Inner Mongolia? Then you should be careful on the way~" Grandmother looked worried, but she still went to the back room to help her son pack things.
Sun Xiaoning, who was in the big house here, saw her mother leaving. She suddenly became thoughtful. She came over and asked in a lower voice: "Second brother, are there a lot of cattle and sheep in Inner Mongolia?"
"Well, that's for sure, it's a grassland after all~" Sun Ganchao rested with his eyes closed. When he heard his sister's question, he subconsciously replied without thinking too much.
"Hey, second brother, can you bring me some beef jerky from Inner Mongolia when you come back? I heard that the stuff is delicious, but I haven't tried it yet~"
After saying this, Sun Xiaoning massaged her brother's arms very shamelessly.
"I promise you, but there is one condition!" Sun Qianchao felt that his sister's small request could still be met.
Besides, when he goes to Inner Mongolia, even if his sister doesn't mention it, he will buy some local specialties for his family to try.
"What's the condition? Don't say one, just five!" Sun Xiaoning replied excitedly, because he was going to eat beef jerky soon.
Sun Ganchao reached out and touched his sister's hair, and said with a smile: "When I am not at home, you must listen to our mother. If my mother sues you when I come back, there will be no beef jerky~"
"Second brother, don't worry..." Sun Xiaoning was just halfway through her words of assurance when she heard her mother's voice, which scared her so much that she swallowed the rest of her words.
"My son and his mother have finished packing. Do you think there is anything missing~" Sun's mother walked over from the back room with her bag as she spoke.
"I should be back tomorrow, that's about it~" Sun Qunchao didn't plan to get up to take a look. At this moment, he felt that the kang was so comfortable.
Grandmother smiled helplessly: "Mom brought you some dry food, a bottle of water, and your father's military coat. Although it is already May, it is still cold at night~"
"Then I'll go back first, so that I don't have to make the master wait~" Sun Ganchao felt that he couldn't lie down any longer, and he felt a little sleepy.
Seeing her son taking the bag and leaving, Sun's mother suddenly thought of something and followed her directly to the outhouse: "By the way, wait a moment, and take two salted duck eggs. These are good for dinner~"
Sun Qianchao quickly refused: "I'd better leave the salted duck eggs to my dad, otherwise his old man's body won't be able to bear it~"
"It's okay. Ever since I knew you were going to be a driver, my mother specially pickled a little more this year, enough for you two." After speaking, grandma took out the salted duck eggs from the pickle jar, wiped them dry, wrapped them in a cloth, and stuffed them into her son's mouth. in the bag.
"You and Xiao Ning can eat as usual, I can't eat much~" Sun Qianchao specially warned before leaving.
After that, the ride was much slower on the way back. It was like traveling around the mountains and rivers. It took half an hour to get back to the factory.
After locking up his bicycle in the transportation department, Sun rushed in. As usual, he greeted everyone he met with a smile:
"Get out of the car, Brother Li!"
"Brother Chen, I heard that my sister-in-law is giving birth, congratulations~"
Faced with someone teasing him for driving for the first time, Sun Qianchao did not dare to show weakness:
"Sanwei, you came here half a month earlier than me, and you haven't even left the car yet, so you're so embarrassed..."
No matter now or in future generations, there will never be any topics to talk about when chatting with the driver. He knows everything from all over the world. Sun Qunchao didn't even go to the office. He chatted with these people outside and learned a lot of experience from them.
For example, you should be careful when you encounter someone blocking your car in the wild mountains, because as soon as you stop, a group of people may suddenly appear from the side.
I also learned about some potential benefits. When driving out, you can pick up some people who want to hitchhike. You can pay a few cents for nothing, or even 1 yuan for a long distance.
In fact, not all of these old drivers would talk to him. Again, Sun Qianchao knew how to be a good person, and he took it out as soon as he walked to the front door.
Time passed quickly. After lunch, the master and apprentice went directly to the parking lot. Liu Ming opened the door of a CA10, commonly known as Lao Jiefang.
Then when he saw his apprentice about to get into the passenger seat, he stopped him directly: "Catch up, you get into the driver's seat. While there is still time, I will teach you how to drive~"
"Oh~" Sun Qianchao threw his bag into the car first and then got into the driver's seat.
Liu Ming also got on the passenger side, pointed at the center console and said, "You must know the steering wheel. This is the gear lever, and what's under your feet is the accelerator, clutch and brake."
"To start, you need to use a rocker. You must be careful at this time, and you must have certain skills. Your brain must react quickly. If you feel something is wrong, withdraw immediately. Otherwise, if the handle suddenly reverses, you will easily hit yourself~"
Speaking of which, Liu Ming got out of the car and practiced it first, and after it was successfully started, he returned to the car to teach: first depress the clutch to the bottom, and then shift into first gear..."
Sun Qianchao pretended to have never driven a car before and was deliberately clumsy. But what he didn't know was that some subconscious actions still impressed Liu Ming.
Liu Ming, who was sitting in the co-pilot here, was calling him a genius in his heart, because he had been working for almost ten years, and no one could drive away the first time he got into the car. The oil-separation combination was perfect.
He practiced starting the car all afternoon, and was scolded by Lao Qian countless times. He originally just wanted the apprentice to get familiar with the car, but he didn't expect that this kid could really turn the car around.
However, although he was shocked in his heart, in order to maintain the dignity of his master, Liu Ming still ordered calmly:
"Drive twice in the yard, and I'll teach you how to reverse the car later if I have time~"
"I understand, master~" Sun Qianchao answered and drove the car out carefully, because cars of his era did not have power steering at all.
The parking lot of the Transportation Department is relatively large and can be driven for about three or four laps. Sun Qianchao practiced reversing under Liu Ming's guidance.
Again, although he had never driven a truck before, Sun Qunchao had driven a pickup truck and an off-road vehicle in his previous life. The principles were the same, so he learned to reverse very quickly.
Liu Ming felt that it was almost time and asked his apprentice to park the car back to its previous location.
He didn't get out of the car after that, and asked him in confusion: "Catch up, have you ever learned to drive before?"
"No, this is our first contact~" Sun Ganchao pretended to be confused and shook his head.
"Then you are really a genius. I think it won't take more than a month or a few trips for you to succeed~" Liu Ming stared at his apprentice for a few seconds to make sure that he was not lying, and sighed.
Because he cried when he talked too much, he thought that he had to reverse course. Liu Ming studied for three days and was scolded by his master Qian Sheng for three days. At that time, he was almost autistic.
Sun Qianchao scratched his head: "Hey, I don't know how to fix it. I can learn this thing once I learn it~"
Liu Ming raised his wrist and glanced at his arm: "Okay, it's almost time. Let's go refuel first, then load up the cargo and set off. We will try to reach Chifeng before dark~"
"Master, this watch of yours is from Shanghai. It's not cheap. How could my wife agree to you buying such an expensive thing?" Sun Ganchao teased with a wink.
Little did he know that this was what Liu Ming was waiting for, and he said with a showy face:
"You have a good eye, but this is a Modu all-steel watch. It cost me 132 yuan, which is almost as much as my three months' salary. Your wife bought it for me. I don't want it~"
"Master, it's just the two of us. Don't talk nonsense. With three months' salary, you can probably afford it in one month if you put all your money together~" Sun Qianchao joked.
"You kid, stop listening to those bastards, they're not that exaggerated~" Liu Ming said this, but the expression on his face clearly showed that there must be a lot of profit!
After refueling in the transportation department, he went to the dispatching room to get the fuel stamps for the gas stations outside and the national food stamps subsidized by Corey for long-distance travel. After loading the goods, the master and apprentice officially started their journey to Inner Mongolia.
Liu Ming was driving the car when it left the factory, but he parked the car on the side of the road after driving less than a few kilometers.
He turned around and ordered: "Catch up. You practiced well in the factory just now. Now you can drive. I will watch from the side. If there are any problems, I can correct them in time."
Mei Ruzhi said he wanted to train his disciples, but in fact Liu Ming just wanted to be lazy. After all, driving is very tiring, okay? Of course, it is divided into people. This means that Sun Qianchao has practiced well, otherwise he would not dare.
"Okay~" Sun Qianchao nodded in agreement.
Afterwards, the master and apprentice exchanged places, and Sun drove the car slowly out of the city.
While driving, he asked a question in his mind: "Master, why do we have to leave at noon? If we leave in the morning, wouldn't we be able to arrive earlier?"
Liu Ming was originally observing the side of the road to see if he could make some extra money. When his apprentice said this, he was immediately stunned:
"You kid, asking this means that you must not have memorized the rules and regulations of our core. Did you turn a deaf ear to what I said at the beginning?"
Sun Ganchao thought about it seriously, and finally frowned and said, "I checked with the master, but he didn't stipulate a time for us to leave the train?"
Liu Ming hates the fact that iron cannot become steel:
"I always thought you were quite smart before, but why are you so stupid this time? The factory stipulates that we go on business trips. If we stay out overnight, we will receive a subsidy of 1 yuan. It will arrive in the afternoon, so can you come back?"
"If we come back, it will definitely be dark halfway through, so it's not just for the dollar, but mainly because it's not safe to drive at night."
"If you have a choice when driving in the future, it is best not to drive at night. Master Liu in our team lost his life because he was tired when driving at night and accidentally drove into a ditch~"
"There are only two of us in the car. Master, let me give you a piece of advice. Everything and the car belong to the country. Only human life belongs to you. If something happens, what will your parents do?"
The last sentence Liu Ming said was extremely serious.
"Master, you are right~" Sun Qianchao nodded in agreement. He cherished his life very much.
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw a man wearing a cadre uniform waving his hand on the side of the road: "Master, look, is this an opportunity for us to make money?"
Liu Ming turned around and looked with a smile on his face: "Well, stop the car, I have the money for today's cigarettes~"
After the car stopped, he rolled down the window: "Brother, where are you going? This is~"
When the man saw the car stopped, he stepped forward and asked, "How about a way to Qin's commune?"
"Come on, we're just on the way~" After Liu Ming said that, he took the initiative to open the cars and scurried inside.
That man probably always took the bus. After getting on the bus, the master and apprentice didn't even need to say anything, and directly handed the 30 cents to Liu Ming.
People in the Northeast are talkative, and it only takes a cigarette to get people who are not familiar with each other to chat together.
"It's a good thing I met you, otherwise I would have had to walk back. Originally, the commune sent me to study in the city and asked me to ride a bicycle~"
"Who would have thought that a bicycle parked outside a guest house could be stolen? I don't know what to do when I get back. This is so unlucky~"
More than an hour later, Sun Qunchao parked his car at the Qinjia Commune and dropped the man off. Liu Ming then found 1.5 cents in change and stuffed it into Sun Qunchao's pocket regardless of Sun's objections.
Then he warned with a serious face: "Catch up, although the money is easy to make, but you have to keep your eyes open. I guess you heard about it when you were chatting with those old guys today~"
"But I still have to tell you, if someone stops your car in the wilderness, especially if it's just a little girl or an old man, don't stop in this case!"
"Don't overflow with love and end up suffering a big loss. Protecting yourself when you go out is the best way. There is one sentence you must keep in mind at all times. If you are not married yet, then you must always think that your parents are still at home. Waiting for you to go back~"
Sun Qianchao held the steering wheel and replied: "Don't worry, master, I don't have that much love."
"Besides, it's fake at first glance. What old lady and little girl go for a walk in the wilderness by themselves? Isn't this just a lie?"
Liu Ming's expression immediately changed when he heard this, and he said angrily: "Okay, just concentrate on driving and keep talking about nothing~"
Sun Qianchao was still a little confused and didn't react for a while. Finally, he took a sneak peek and saw the master's face combined with the previous rumors. He instantly understood why he had such a big reaction. He was also a bitch. Why did he say this? ?
Because my master Liu Ming is that fool. I heard before that when he went out alone for the first time, he saw a pitiful girl waving to him in a place without a village or a shop behind him.
Liu Ming was twenty years old at the time, and he immediately stopped the car due to his overflowing hormones. The stop didn't matter, and then dozens of people appeared from all around and looted all the soy sauce, vinegar and other condiments in the car.
The main reason is that what is pulled on the car is after all various condiments, and it is not important national materials such as steel and machinery, so under normal circumstances, drivers rarely carry guns.
Thinking of this, Sun Qianchao smiled unkindly and was not afraid of his master Liu Ming being angry. After a month of getting along with him, he had almost figured out his temper.
It would be nice to just coax him later. After all, it has been a long time since this happened, and he probably wouldn't even need to coax him later. He would have to take the initiative to talk to him.
As expected, less than 20 minutes passed, and before Sun Qianchao could bow his head, Liu Ming couldn't help but speak:
"That's you, kid. If another person dares to call me a fool, I'll be honest if I don't give him some shoes to wear~"
Sun Qianchao also gave him a step, and took the initiative to admit his mistake: "Master, the apprentice just said the wrong thing. To express his apology, I will take care of dinner~"
"My mother knew that it was my first time to travel far away today, so she specially brought me pork head meat. Anyway, I don't have to drive at night. When we get there, we have a good drink and we will treat it as an apology to you~"
Liu Ming was drinking one day and subconsciously shook his head: "No, I'm happy with the pork head meat, so there's no need to drink~"
"Master, what are you afraid of? Let's not drink more, just one bottle~" Sun Qianchao persuaded again.
"Then... it still doesn't work, you kid, don't try to persuade me!" Liu Ming was a little tempted at first, but he held it back in the end. If he drank too much, it would be unsafe to drive the next day.
"Hey, master, are you scared?" Sun Ganchao asked deliberately.
When Liu Ming heard this, he became angry and said: "You idiot, what am I afraid of? Wait until we get home this time and ask your sister-in-law to cook two dishes at home. See if I don't surrender to you~"
