The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer
Chapter 1319: Flat tire
The Cessna 208 has good adaptability to simple runways, and can even take off and land on flat grass and gravel beaches. This time it landed on a new cement runway...
"Fuck!"
The plane had just taxied to the apron position, and it hadn't stopped yet. A strange noise was heard, and then the plane seemed to be slightly tilted to one side.
The captain in front yelled: "Boss, get off the plane immediately, the tire has burst!"
"what?"
Zhang Nan didn't understand what was going on, so he was surrounded by several bodyguards and quickly got off the plane.
What do you mean by this!
Standing on the tarmac, Zhang Nan looked a little dumbfounded at the flat tires under the right side of the fuselage.
This is an airplane tire. It’s not easy to puncture, let alone a light aircraft equipped with low tire pressure like the Cynas 208. It should be difficult for you to make it puncture, but it’s a **** puncture. NS.
It was not the moment when the landing bottomed out, but in the process of low-speed skating, Zhang Nan felt that he could play another powerball.
It's so unreasonable, even the airport fueler who came here felt a little weird.
But... a word from the airport fueler unconsciously made everyone on the plane suddenly feel cloudy and clear: "If you hit the ground, you will have a puncture!"
What's the matter, what else is unsatisfactory?
Be content.
But what will it do?
Cold!
There were originally 7 people in the entire airport, 4 of them were not yet airport staff. Those 4 were planning to fly an old-fashioned De Havilland DHC-2 piston "beaver" to the east hundreds of kilometers away. Salt Lake City, Utah, this will also come to see it will be lively.
A flat tire in an airplane has been rare in a few years.
Among the remaining three airport personnel, one is in charge of communications, one is a fueler, and the other is a mechanic. But Battle Mountain Airport is a small western airport. The mechanic told Zhang Nan and others: "Change tires. I will, the tools are there, and I can get it done with some help.
But we don’t have spare parts of this model, so we shouldn’t explode..."
In a small airport, who would prepare airplane tires, it's fun!
Yes, I can't go for the time being. Here I call the people who stay behind in the Vegas Manor Villa to ask them to adjust the plane as soon as possible and get another spare tire by the way.
After the phone call, Zhang Nan felt that he should find a place to sit. There is no coffee shop on the airport side. When the plane is ready on the Las Vegas side, and then fly over, the fastest is a few hours later, so I have to go. That's the consumption of Battle Mountain.
The weather is too hot, Zhang Nan is afraid of heat, and quickly find a cool place.
Whether this will be exposed or not, the people at the airport have recognized him anyway, and he didn't wear sunglasses or headscarf when he got off the plane, and he could be counted as running away under special circumstances.
Exposure is exposed. This is a small place. The well-known Mr. Allen came to Nevada to play, but when the plane was halfway through to refuel, he was confused and punctured. This is good news!
Good news with no flaws does not matter even if it is heard by people who are interested. It's just a transit. Originally, I didn't want to stay in Battle Mountain at all. This is an accident that makes drinking cold water stuffy.
We can’t put some money here to keep others secret, otherwise it can’t be justified, especially the four people who went to Salt Lake City. Why do you give them the money in a decent way?
Andre and Guan Xingquan, who got off the plane together, thought that it would not take half an hour. At least half of the people in the town would know that the famous Mr. Allen was temporarily staying in the town because of the unlucky plane puncture.
Small places, this is big news!
Since you can't hide, go to town in a fair manner. As for the question of where you are coming from Las Vegas and where you are going, you don't need to explain to anyone at all, just pass by.
It is six or seven kilometers from the apron to the town. It will be noon, and the temperature on the ground has soared to thirty-seven degrees. It is hard to walk under the scorching sun: there is no shade on the road, and the temperature is over 40 under the direct sun.
But it’s good to have US dollars. A call from the airport management staff soon drove a 12-seater Chevrolet Express van that is common in the United States and is not small and practical.
The bodyguards who left the two guest pilots stayed at the airport. The van driver was replaced here. The driver and the airport staff were tipped two hundred dollars each, plus five hundred dollars in the "car rental fee", plus The last car repairer contributed a broken pickup truck, so I will go to town.
The big man, Mr. Allen, is not short of money. He is so proud. He is very popular among airport employees. This is in the barren desert of north-central Nevada. Except for the valley area, which is fairly flat, there are bare rocks and mountains everywhere. Gully.
Although the mountain is not particularly high, it is dry enough, and it is difficult to develop agriculture and animal husbandry here. It can be regarded as a relatively poor area in the United States, and the population below the poverty line can account for almost 30%!
The mighty United States also has poor places. In Zhang Nan's eyes, this Rand County is probably a national poverty-stricken county in the United States, poor!
The airport runway is concrete. The road leading from the airport to the small town is just a gravel road. The tires of the Chevrolet Express van look like truck tires. It is just right to run on such a road.
Soon I arrived at the edge of the town ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ It is a bit strange that Battle Mountain did not build a town next to the Red Fort River. The town area is 1.5 kilometers south of the river.
Looking around the town, the Beifeng Mountain in the distance is quite green, and there are many green trees in the town, but in other places, except for farms and pastures with irrigation systems in the distance, the rest are bare and bald. .
I was looking for a place to sit for a meeting. It’s lunch time. I originally wanted to solve the lunch problem after returning to Las Vegas. I brought some bread and drinks on the plane. I wondered if I could find it in the town. Family can go to the restaurant.
The driver who led the way in the pickup truck recommended the place. There are four restaurants in Battle Mountain, all of which are on the side of the highway.
The airport is on the east side of the town, along the highway to the west. As soon as you reach the town, you will encounter three side by side restaurants: first a Mexican restaurant, a Chinese restaurant in between, and then a western-style fast food restaurant.
"...The best restaurant is in the casino at the east end of the town. You can also spend some leisure time there..."
The driver recommended, but he was obviously blind: Who is Mr. Allen?
He is Chinese.
Zhang Nan listened to the news about the restaurant from the bodyguards through the walkie-talkie in the van, but didn't say anything. Guan Xingquan said, "Go to the Chinese restaurant."
There is a Chinese restaurant in the western pauper town. Where can I go if I don’t go there?
Although I did not choose the most fun casino recommended by the driver, the guys also figured out something: It turns out that the secret to this small town with more than 2,000 people is not the environment, but the casino.
This is Nevada, where gambling is legal.
