"Catch up~"
"Catch up!"
After returning home from get off work, Sun Qianchao was a little absent-minded during his meal because he had something on his mind. He didn't even hear his father call him twice.
The younger son rarely showed this expression in recent years. The grandson's father and grandma thought something had happened to their son. The couple looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
"Second Super League, are you in trouble?" Sun Guofu, who was sitting next to his son, patted his arm and asked.
"Ah... what did you just say?" Sun Qianchao came back to his senses and was a little confused.
Sun's father was not impatient after hearing this, and repeated: "Did you encounter any problems at work?"
"Nothing happened when I arrived. I'm just worried about the consequences. Our core dispatcher has been transferred. My master recommended me and I've already applied!"
"But there is a new secretary in the factory, and I'm afraid she won't agree~" Sun Qunchao had nothing to hide and told his father the truth.
"Huh~" The grandson's father and grandson's mother breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. It turned out that this was the case, so they were relieved.
"You've been lucky enough in the past two years to be in the Second Super League. If you really can't qualify, forget it. There's no point in overthinking it. Look at Bingkun and Guoqing."
"They have been tired of moving wood in the past two years. In comparison, it is not much easier for you. Moreover, the driver is decent and makes a lot of money. Sometimes we are satisfied~"
After listening to his father's persuasion, Sun Qianchao smiled bitterly, and then said with emotion: "Dad, you are right, but I am still not satisfied. Originally, I was destined to be the captain, but in the end I didn't become the captain!"
"Now that I am asked to go out and drive a car every day, I always feel uncomfortable and the gap is too big!"
When grandma heard this, she finally revealed the question she had been hiding in her heart for the past two days: "Son, you didn't mention it before, and your father and I didn't ask either."
"What's going on? Haven't you been an agent before? With your master here, why haven't you become one yet?"
Sun Guofu was also more concerned. When his wife asked this question, he also pricked up his ears and listened, wanting to see how his son would answer.
"It's a coincidence. It was already..." Sun Qianchao explained the cause and effect in detail.
After describing it, he said helplessly: "Who would have thought that such a thing could happen? It's such a coincidence that the new secretary came. If she had come half a month later, I would have taken office~"
Next, the family was chatting while eating, and the grandson's father and grandma also took turns to enlighten their son: "Second Chao, don't think too much..."
After eating, he was the only one left in the house. His parents had gone out to visit. Sun Qunchao lay helplessly on the kang and coaxed his nephew. This was originally the job of his younger sister, Sun Xiaoning.
But she wanted to go out to play with her friends, so she pretended to have a stomachache and begged herself to help look after the children. Originally, Sun Qunchao didn't want to agree, but in the end he softened when he saw the pitiful look in his sister's eyes and nodded mysteriously.
As a result, he saw the expression on his sister's face, just like Shuchuan's face changing. She became so fast that she ran away happily. Only then did Sun Qianchao realize that he had been deceived.
"Oh, uncle surrenders..."
Here we are cooperating with my nephew to play policeman and catch thieves.
Then I heard Zhou Bingkun's voice coming from outside the door: "Catch up, are you at home?"
Sun Qianchao shouted toward the door: "I'm at home!"
After Zhou Bingkun came in, he took off his hat and put it aside, and sat on the edge of the kang himself.
Asked: "Why are you coaxing the children at home? Where are Uncle Sun and Auntie?"
"I left after eating. I guess I went to visit. What's wrong with you? You came to the soy sauce factory without making any noise~" Sun Ganchao joked with a smile.
"Don't mention it anymore. I'll get into trouble when I mention this. I was originally able to work in a clean and sanitary MSG workshop, but because of the interference of that old lady Qu, I turned into a bitter and tiring slag extraction workshop."
"But she is quite nice. She has given us new equipment and so on, so the environment is a little better. And I think some of what she said is quite right. I really shouldn't be greedy for pleasure at my age~"
After Zhou Bingkun finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and touched Xiao Pangdun's head: "Shitou, call me uncle~"
Child Wu Aiguo is very realistic. If you have something delicious in your hand, why should I give you face? So he continued to play with the toys in his hand without raising his head or eyes, and he didn't even glance at him.
Here, Sun Qianchao immediately understood after hearing these words that he, a young boy, had probably gone to Ma Shouchang's house for dinner.
Moreover, he was successfully "brainwashed" by Mrs. Qu's words, because what he just said was not something Zhou Datou could say.
But that's fine. Zhou Bingkun did not suffer much from childhood, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to resign from the lumber factory on impulse some time ago.
And if it were not for the hard years in the slag discharging workshop, I am afraid there would be no Zhou Bingkun in the future. The difficult environment can indeed temper one's will.
Thinking of this, Sun Qianchao couldn't help but feel a little envious. Of course, it wasn't that he was suffering, but that he was so lucky to be young. He was worthy of being the protagonist. If he saved just one person in the bath, he would be a star in the founding of the country.
Moreover, although these two adhere to principles, they are also approachable and are indispensable guiding lights in Zhou Datou's life. They are definitely much better than his sister-in-law's parents.
Those two people are simply unmentionable. Sun Qianchao disliked these two people the most when he first watched the TV series. Even if he suffered in a special era, he couldn't guard his own family like thieves. Good guy, he was afraid of them. Smear yourself with a little light.
It seems that they are adhering to principles, but in fact they are not, because they enjoy the privileges brought by their rights very much. The gifts given by their subordinates in the room can explain everything. In the final analysis, they despise the Zhou family from the bottom of their hearts.
Otherwise, why did he respond to the requests of his erring subordinate Sheng Changshun? That bastard not only harassed the women around him, but also probably committed rape, but "Governor Hao" still protected him.
When faced with the questioning of his son-in-law Zhou Bingyi, he just said, "I'm very capable, so I need to help you" and directly put him off. Isn't this nonsense?
Thinking of this, Sun Qianchao quickly shook his head. No matter what others do, it has nothing to do with him. He can just live a good life. The water here is too deep.
So he asked: "Bingkun, what are you doing here this time?"
"I mainly want to tell you two good things. When Secretary Qu came to our workshop to deliver cotton-padded clothes two days ago, he said that there seemed to be some kind of night school in the factory~"
"The other thing is, brother Xiaoguang said that this Sunday, the province plans to open up the supply of pork. It will be piloted in the supply and marketing cooperative of Shengli Store in the suburbs. You can buy this without a ticket, and the price is 48 cents~"
"Really, is there such a good thing?" Sun Qianchao was not too "cold" about the night school.
After all, with all the accumulation I have accumulated over the past few lives, I will have no problem getting into college in the future, but I am very interested in eating meat.
There has been no meat in the house for almost half a month, because my mother saved up the meat and froze it, saying that she would save it for the New Year. Although she is not short of money now, she is short of meat stamps. Without this, even if she has money, she cannot buy meat. .
As for buying meat on the black market, it’s okay to go there once in a while, because the price is too expensive, almost double, and the meat is as high as about 8 cents per catty. No matter how rich you are, you can’t eat like this.
"But Brother Xiaoguang said there is a prerequisite, that is, the meat is not weighed, but is weighed. The main reason is that weighing is too slow and can easily cause riots~"
"So I just thought about it, let's see if we can buy one together. I have contacted Debao and Guoqing, as well as Lu Chuan and Xiang Yang, and they have all agreed!"
"Do you want to come together?" Zhou Bingkun looked at his friend and asked.
Although Sun Qianchao also wanted to buy meat, he didn't want to get involved with them.
After thinking for a moment, he said: "Bingkun, if six people buy together, my family will not have enough~"
"Because my sister is also short of meat, so she has to send some to her for the Chinese New Year. How about this? The five of you buy one, and I buy one for myself. Do you think this will work?"
"What?" Zhou Bingkun looked surprised at first.
Then he asked: "One fan costs more than 100 kilograms and 40 to 50 yuan. Is your family able to eat it?"
"My brother-in-law's side probably costs 50 pounds, and the master's side also needs to be more filial. I don't think one fan is enough!" Sun Ganchao explained with a smile.
Where could he find this good thing about being able to buy pork without a ticket? If he wasn't afraid of attracting too much attention, he would have bought dozens of them.
When Zhou Bingkun heard this, he didn't say anything else: "Then we'll gather at my house and let's go together~"
…
After Sun rushed to work the next day, he held a meeting and received his tasks for the day. Because he had run short distances for several days before, this time he was running a long distance to Chifeng.
It’s still the same as before, drinking tea, reading newspapers and fishing until noon. After dinner, I leisurely drive to refuel.
Because Zhao Yuanchao had been transferred to the small Jeep factory department, his partner this time was a newcomer who had just joined the team. His master, Lao Liang, took a few days off due to something else, so the team asked him to take care of him for two days.
"Comrade, I remember your name is Lei Jianguo, right?" While refueling, Sun Qianchao, who had nothing to do, saw that he was a little reserved, so he asked.
"Captain Sun, you... just call me Xiao Lei~" Lei Jianguo spoke hesitantly.
Because he was too nervous. After learning to repair cars from the team, when he came to the team to report, Sun Qunchao happened to be the acting captain. He had not had much contact with him before, and he suddenly had to drive together, which made him feel a little scared.
Seeing his appearance, Sun Ganchao became playful and wanted to tease him, so he deliberately said in a serious tone: "Don't call me captain in the future!"
"I was just an agent at the beginning. Now our captain is Jiang Feng. If he hears this, he must not put on my shoes. Are you trying to trick me?"
When Lei Jianguo heard this, his face turned red with fright, and he quickly explained in a panic: "Captain...Master Sun, I definitely didn't mean that~"
Seeing his reaction, Sun Qianchao considered that he had achieved his goal, turned around and patted him on the shoulder.
Comforting: "It's just a joke, don't be nervous and relax, I should be two years older than you, we are all the same age, what are you afraid of~"
"Oh~" Lei Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief.
After refueling and getting into the car, the two got into the car. After leaving the factory, Sun Qianchao held the steering wheel with his left hand, took out a cigarette with his right hand, and put one in his mouth. In the past two years, due to his career, the number of cigarettes has increased. Be diligent.
And after a long time, I usually have nothing to do in the car, and I even developed a unique skill, which is to strike a match with one hand to light a fire.
After lighting it, he took a nice puff, and then handed the cigarette to the co-pilot next to him: "Have one~"
Lei Jianguo, who was sitting in the co-pilot beside him in a daze, waved his hands quickly when he heard this: "Master Sun, I don't know how~"
Sun Ganchao smiled when he heard this: "Hahaha, you have to learn this quickly. Actually, I don't like smoking cigarettes either."
“It’s not good for your health, not to mention it’s choking your throat, but it’s good for you. It’s refreshing. If you’re sleepy while driving, take one and you’ll be refreshed in an instant!”
"By the way, you know that Zhao Yuanchao was transferred two days ago, right?"
Lei Jianguo nodded: "I know, I think I'm going to drive a jeep~"
Sun Qianchao nodded: "Yes, that's him!"
"When he first came here, he said he didn't know how to drink. He didn't even know how to drink. Look at him now. He's a chain smoker~"
"Then let me try~" Lei Jianguo also thought it made sense, so he took the cigarette.
As a result, I lit up and took a sip, and as expected, I got choked up in my throat: "Cough cough cough~"
"Hahaha~" Sun Qunchao laughed directly.
After laughing enough, he corrected himself while driving, "Xiao Lei, your method is wrong. I tell you that you should..."
Men's friendship is so strange. After a few cigarettes, the two of them got to know each other better.
While chatting, Sun Qianchao felt soreness in his back and legs and cramps in his legs. In short, he was a little lazy and he could do it alone. However, he inadvertently glanced at the co-pilot and had an idea in his mind.
"Jianguo, where did your master teach you? Have you learned how to drive or something?" After saying this, there was a look of expectation on his face.
Lei Jianguo was admiring the scenery along the way. When he heard this, he nodded quickly: "I learned it. Now I am only not very good at reversing. My master said everything else is fine~"
Hearing this, Sun Qianchao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and then asked: "Did you and your master get out of the car and run on the road before?"
Because we smoked a few cigarettes together, Lei Jianguo was no longer nervous and replied directly with a smile: "I ran away. My master often asked me to drive before."
"Okay, you go ahead and drive. I'll be watching from the side. If there are any problems, I'll correct you in time. A novice driver like you needs to practice more~"
"My master once told me that a good shooter is made with bullets, and a good driver is made with gasoline~" Sun Qunchao said and parked the car directly on the side of the road.
When he got on the road again, he was already sitting leisurely in the passenger seat, happily lighting a cigarette. At this moment, he finally realized the happiness of his master Liu Ming.
After finishing his cigarette, the co-pilot didn't sit there for nothing. He gave some advice: "Xiao Lei, you're shifting the gear too hard. You need to be gentler, and you're pressing the clutch too hard..."
After driving for more than 20 minutes, they had already driven out of the city. Sun, who was teaching Lei Jianguo how to drive, caught up and saw someone waving at the roadside.
He quickly said: "Jianguo, put on the brakes~"
After the car stopped, he rolled down the window and stuck his head out: "Comrade, where are you going~"
The people on the roadside were already suffering from the cold, and when they saw the car stopped, they also had smiles on their faces.
Shivering, he asked, "Would you like to go to Yongfa Commune?"
"I'm on my way, come on~" Sun Qianchao opened the car door and rushed inside.
The visitor came up quickly, closed the car door, and took out 4 cents from his pocket.
He handed it over and said, "Thank you. It's such a cold weather that I bumped into you. I just stopped several cars and they didn't let me go~"
"It's not easy to go out, so if you can help me, please help me~" Although Sun Qunchao said this, he was not polite with his hands.
He took the money and didn't even look at it, he just put it in his pocket, because these people always take the bus and they know the price better than themselves.
It is worth mentioning here that Sun Qianchao did not distribute the money to Lei Jianguo, because I later learned that not everyone is like master Liu Ming, who distributes money to apprentices who have not yet become regulars.
Although he is not short of these few cents, he cannot break the rules. After all, he is not his apprentice. If the money is divided, what will Lao Liang do in the future? Should he divide it?
After sending this person to the location, he "picked up" a few more people on the road, and then stopped picking up people because he had already left the boundaries of Jiangliao Province. For his own safety, he still had to be cautious when traveling.
After chatting with Lei Jianguo who was driving for a while, Sun Qianchao yawned and said lazily: "Jianguo, are you tired?"
"Master Sun, I'm not tired~" Lei Jianguo's eyes were bright.
Seeing this, Sun Qianchao nodded: "Well, Jianguo, I'm a little sleepy. I'll take a nap for a while. Call me if you need anything~"
Then he tightened the coat he was wearing, leaned on the seat and fell asleep...
After an unknown amount of time, the car slowly stopped as Lei Jianguo applied the brakes.
Sun Qianchao, who was sleeping, woke up immediately, turned around and asked: "What's wrong Jianguo, is the car broken down?"
Upon hearing this, Lei Jianguo pointed his finger out of the car window and explained: "The car is not broken down. Master Sun, look at whether there is a little girl waving in front~"
"She seems to be pregnant. She must be in an emergency. Should we go down and have a look? It's so cold in this cold weather. There's no place to go or a store to go. Don't let it freeze out!"
Because Sun Qianchao had just woken up, he still didn't react when he heard this. He followed his hand and subconsciously looked out the window, and there was indeed a pregnant girl.
After seeing clearly, my mind started to buzz, my eyes suddenly widened, and the remaining trace of sleepiness immediately disappeared. I was stunned for two or three seconds.
When he came back to his senses, he immediately shouted: "I'm a fool, who the hell told you to stop? Hurry up and drive away. Didn't your master teach you that you can't park in the wilderness~"
After all, Lei Jianguo, who was eighteen or nineteen years old, was just starting out. It was when he had the most sense of justice that he retorted with a look of reluctance: "Master Sun, a pregnant woman in this cold weather is too..."
Sun Qianchao didn't have time to listen to his nonsense, because he had no time to leave at this time, so he stretched out his right hand and hit him hard.
He said with an angry look on his face: "I'm too much trouble for your grandma, drive the car quickly and don't talk nonsense to me~"
"Why are you still beating people? You are so unloving. I am a pregnant woman. What should I do if something happens? Can you bear this responsibility?" Lei Jianguo rubbed the person who was beaten angrily. arms.
After saying that, he opened the car door and got out of the car. He wanted to learn from the senior with the same surname. He must lend a helping hand when he encounters people in need.
Sun Ganchao saw this and quickly pulled him back. Although he was extremely angry, he was too lazy to beat him and leaned on the seat with a lonely look.
He sighed and said, "It's over. Now I'm so damn useless. I've really made you miserable~"
"What are you doing? You have no sympathy, but don't stop me from saving people~" Lei Jianguo was still a little angry after being dragged back.
"It's a waste of time to save us. You can see for yourself. Now let's think about who can come to save us~" Sun Qunchao was heartbroken now and stretched out his hand to point tremblingly out of the window.
Lei Jianguo followed his hand and looked out the window, and was so frightened by the scene in front of him that his eyes widened and he swallowed unconsciously:
"Is this... what my master said before, is it true?"
Because at this moment, there were more than ten people, holding machetes, shovels, sticks and other weapons in their hands, surrounding them, and they were probably afraid that they would drive away.
A dead tree was moved in front of her. What made Lei Jianguo angry the most was that the poor "pregnant woman" just now took out a pillow from her arms, which was obviously fake.
Sun Qianchao didn't have time to answer questions here. His brain was running fast and he was thinking of countermeasures. He was sweating profusely because he had been driving sports cars for several years and this was the first time he had encountered this problem. He had no experience.
"Master Sun, what should I do?" Lei Jianguo held Sun Qunchao's arm tightly with his fearful hands. He now felt extremely regretful.
I thought what the master said was a story, but I didn't expect it to be true. Someone actually blocked the car "pretending to be pitiful".
Sun Qianchao shook his hand away: "Stop fucking talking nonsense, don't you want me to do it?"
"You little brat, if this matter goes away today, I will definitely give you a discount on your legs when you go back, which will make you so loving!"
After all, Lei Jianguo was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and he shed tears of fear: "They have knives in their hands, but we have nothing. How can we fight against them? Otherwise, we..."
When Sun Ganchao heard this, he was so angry that he slapped him in the face. He had already thought of a countermeasure just now. I almost forgot that there was a 54 pistol in the "space" before, but it comes in handy now.
"Calm down, hold the steering wheel, and rush over as soon as there is an opening. I will chat with them~"
At this time, he looked out the window and saw that these people were less than 5 meters away from the car and could probably walk there in a few steps. Sun Qunchao no longer hesitated and made a decisive decision and pulled out the gun from his lower back (space).
Because if these people are allowed to get close, it will be over. They will definitely destroy the tires, and then they will not be able to leave even if they want to. Not to mention a small pistol, even a submachine gun is useless.
"Master Sun, what are you doing?" Lei Jianguo was shocked when he saw the gun.
Sun Ganchao ignored him, opened the car door, and did not get out of the car. Instead, he stood up on the pedals outside the car and shot directly into the sky: "Bang~"
The people who came around were stunned for a moment. You looked at me, I looked at you, and they all stopped and didn't dare to step forward. They didn't expect that the driver of the car actually had a gun.
Seeing that he had frightened these people, Sun Ganchao quickly struck while the iron was hot and said sternly: "I don't care what you do, just get out of here."
"I work for the First Automobile Manufacturing Plant and I need to deliver important machinery to the arsenal. If this is delayed, your whole family will have to eat peanuts~"
The leader of this group of people was probably in his 30s and was wearing a blue military coat. He looked at Sun Chao Chao who was standing on the steps holding a gun. He looked unwilling and took a step forward.
He shouted loudly: "There are more than ten of us. Your gun only has 8 bullets. You just used one. And I don't believe you dare to kill someone as a driver~"
When Sun Ganchao heard this, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and he took out another magazine. Although he was panicking, his face showed a proud expression: "Now, two magazines and 15 rounds of bullets are enough for each of you to reward you." One shot?"
"And you don't need to provoke me. To tell you the truth, I am not the driver, but the security guard pressing the car. Otherwise, I would not be equipped with so many bullets. You are now suspected of highway robbery~"
"Last warning, if you don't get out of the way, I will shoot~" After saying that, he put the muzzle of the gun on the door that had lowered the window and made a shooting posture.
When the leading "robber" saw this, he weighed the pros and cons in his mind. He gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Let them pass~"
"Brother, just let them go like this. They are working in the ice and snow, but their work is in vain~" A stunned young man in his 20s was a little reluctant.
The leading brother was originally angry because things were not going well. Hearing this, he felt like he had a punching bag. He turned around and kicked him down.
He scolded him angrily: "You still have the fucking nerve to say that it all depends on you. You can't even understand where you step on it. Is this a food factory's car?"
Leng Tou Qing stood up from the ground, a little aggrieved: "That's right, he has walked several times before~"
"The driver of your food factory is armed with a gun. Quickly move the roadblock away for me~" After the leader said, he was not relieved and gave him another slap in the face.
To be honest, they are not "bandits". After all, it has been more than 20 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
They were all local hooligans nearby. Even if they forced the car to stop, they would only loot the goods. They did not dare to "kill people and steal goods", let alone rob, because if the things were touched, their nature would change.
After waiting for the roadblock to be removed, Lei Jianguo slowly drove away with trembling hands.
Sun rushed to catch up but did not dare to relax. He returned to the car and closed the door, but kept the gun away. He held it tightly in his hand and was on guard...
