With a Door In Mind

On the way back in the evening, I met Zhao Qinian.

See the old man a little haggard.

"Grandpa Zhao, when you go back at night, I'll give you that wine to drink a little every day, don't drink too much."

The wine for Zhao Qinian was brewed with spatial spring water, so it still had some uses.

"How can I be in the mood to drink." Zhao Qinian said angrily.

Zhou Xiaochuan said something joking when he heard the words.

"Shouldn't it be better to drink wine to drown out your sorrows?"

"What do you know, little brat?"

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at Zhao Qinian who was a little troubled. "Grandpa Zhao, I heard that the factory is going to the northwest to get cotton?"

"I've made a phone call, cotton is available, but it's not for sale!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was a bit strange to hear that, although it is now a period of unified purchase and sales, it is indeed their own decision on who to sell to.

But there seems to be no textile factory there.

"why?"

"They want food! Who is not short of food now? How much food is needed for so many goods?"

Hearing Zhao Qinian's words, he nodded, it's not too bad. They are all holding the last straw in their hands.

Zhou Xiaochuan hesitated for a while, but still said it: "Why do you have to exchange all the grain? In the same situation, if you don't have any grain, I have grain, so won't I take advantage of it?"

Zhao Qinian was stunned when he heard the words, thinking about the meaning of what he said.

After a while his eyes lit up.

Why do you have to exchange all grain for cotton? No one can afford it at this time.

This thing is like a gift, as a stepping stone on the line.

"Grandpa Zhao, you have contacted by phone. You can use the train to transport the grain over there, and then let the other party transport the cotton by train, right?"

Zhao Qinian hesitated after hearing the words, "I'll go back and think about it."

Then he said to him again: "You kid is busy every day, but you have a lot to worry about."

Zhou Xiaochuan was embarrassed when he heard the words. Is it easy for me to go to the Northwest?

If the grain is really transported, it will definitely not be possible to use trains, but to use cars, because during this period, the grain arrives at various stops by railway, and whether it is really yours may not be true.

After returning home for dinner, he went to Hu Laosan to give him the food for the past few days.

Came to mechanic class the next morning. After saying hello to a few people, I walked towards the warehouse.

When I came to the place, it was said that the parking lot was actually an open space with a scheduling room next to it.

"Is Xiaochuan here?"

"Yeah, Brother Ding, come and find Squad Leader Lei."

"Oh, the squad leader is in the scheduling room."

"Ok, thanks."

From time to time, someone greeted him, and after staying in the maintenance class for so long, these drivers basically knew each other.

Entering the dispatch room, Lao Lei was holding a notebook and talking to another person.

"Uncle Ray, here I come."

Lei Jiachuan looked up at him and nodded, "Sit down first."

Then continue talking to the person next to you.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan did not urge him, so he just stood beside him.

After about ten minutes, Lao Lei explained the good things, then turned around and smiled: "Xiao Chuan, Lao Guo told me yesterday, don't worry, learn slowly. That car won't go out this morning, You go play the square plate."

After finishing speaking, he pointed to an old-fashioned truck parked in the open space.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at it and asked, "Uncle Lei, where's the car key?"

"The car is unlocked, the key is on it, don't open it randomly."

Zhou Xiaochuan wanted to say that he really didn't need to learn how to steer a car that he had built for so long.

But think about yourself as a newcomer, do whatever others say!

When I came to the truck he mentioned, I didn't go to look at it again. I have not seen any car in the factory that has been repaired for so long.

The paint of the old car was peeled off in water, and the seat cushions in the room were worn out.

After opening the door, I felt a little stuffy, so I opened both doors.

Then, according to Lao Lei's instructions, he started to turn the steering wheel.

The current cars do not have a booster, and the resistance is even greater when the car is stationary, but it is not difficult for him.

Zhou Xiaochuan was playing the square plate, thinking to himself, does this old Lei have no time to take care of himself, so let him play the steering wheel here to pass the time.

From time to time, people he knew came to greet him and asked about the situation.

There are only a dozen people in the driver class. I've known each other over and over. It's just that some people are not familiar with it.

After getting bored at the steering wheel for a while, he stopped and watched the men start loading. He thought about it and got out of the car and went to help.

Today's drivers are not the kind of drivers who only carry goods and not move them in the future. They not only have to drive, but also have to be responsible for moving goods.

During this period, he also saw Zhao Qinian come over, said something to Lao Lei and then left.

When he was about to eat, Lao Lei probably remembered his existence. : "Let you turn the steering wheel, what are you doing?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and said, "Uncle Lei, it's not that I don't fight. I have repaired the car for so long, how could it be possible that the square plate will not fight."

Then he said, "Uncle Lei, hitting the square plate in place will damage the car."

Lao Lei was stunned for a moment, "Can you move?"

He really looked down on him. It is estimated that Guo Tuozi did not tell him about his strength.

He didn't speak, and came to the car and held the steering wheel. Take a few easy laps back and forth.

Only then did Lao Lei slow down and tut his mouth: "I don't see it, you have a lot of strength. Okay, you don't have to turn the steering wheel in the afternoon."

Zhou Xiaochuan thought he was letting him learn to drive.

"The car will be used in the afternoon, and I can't learn if I want to."

Zhou Xiaochuan was embarrassed when he heard the words.

In the afternoon, he was treated as a coolie again and began to move goods with these drivers.

When it was about to get off work, an empty car came back, the driver's surname was Liu.

Lao Lei looked at the empty carriage behind him and asked him, "Didn't you pull it?"

Xiao Liu shook his head. "No."

Lao Lei was silent for a while, then nodded. "Okay, then you take a rest and let me use the car for a while."

"Okay!" Xiao Liu said and handed him the key.

Lao Lei took the key and greeted Zhou Xiaochuan who was resting there.

"Xiao Chuan, come here!"

Zhou Xiaochuan ran over after hearing the words. "Uncle Ray, what's wrong?"

Lao Lei gave him the key first. "It's nothing, it's almost time to get off work, I'll teach you a lesson. You go to the driver's seat and start the car."

"Oh, okay." Zhou Xiaochuan agreed and got into the driving position. Then started the car.

Only then did Lao Lei begin to teach Zhou Xiaochuan how to drive.

Following his command, the car slowly moved.

Originally, he was worried that Zhou Xiaochuan had used the accelerator as the brake. After teaching him for a while, he found that the other party was a little unfamiliar at first, but after getting familiar with it for a while, he became proficient.

Now there are not so many projects in later generations, as long as you can normally shift, turn, and reverse. Basically even learned. The rest is just getting used to it.

Lao Lei asked suspiciously. "Have you studied?"

Zhou Xiaochuan said helplessly: "Uncle Lei, I repair cars every day, how can I not do these basic operations."

But what made him complain was that the long gear lever did make him a little uncomfortable.

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, he nodded.

With the signal to get off work, Zhou Xiaochuan also ended the day of study.

In fact, it is not difficult to learn to drive in this era, and it will be no problem in a few days. It's hard to learn to repair.

In the next few days, Zhou Xiaochuan worked in the driver's class while learning to drive.

After only 2 days of teaching, from the third day, Lao Lei let him practice driving alone there.
