Chapter 781: Old Friend
"Master Zhang, Mr. Xiang, is that person's name Zhang Weiwei?"
Speaking in English pinyin of Chinese names, Davis's pronunciation is a little weird, but I can understand it.
"yes, you know?"
Hearing Xiang Weirong's words, Davis said with a smile: "Mr. Xiang, this Zhang Weiwei is a god and a super driver, and it is great that others can win the first fuel saving once, this year he has won the first place 6 times, the second and third have also, and the bonus alone has more than 30,000 yuan!"
Even if the co-driver has to take a third, that's a lot.
There is also a fuel saving king competition in the transportation season on the transportation company's side, and the top three prizes are 50,000, 30,000 and 15,000, and I watched him win the fuel king prize in the end. β
At this time, a group of people had already walked to the daily necessities container loading area, Xiang Weirong heard Davis's words, and said: "Then you have to be careful, Lao Zhang can win the first place 6 times, if the two main car drivers get together, the prize can be higher than the salary, don't let the old guys take advantage of the loopholes, haha..."
Of course, this is a joke, if Lao Zhang and Lao Xing of the original team of the Yan County Materials Bureau team together, there are really not many car groups that can fight.
"Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, except for a superman like Zhang Weiwei, in terms of salary, it is not very cost-effective for the two main car drivers to join forces, the company has considered it.
As for a super driver like Zhang Weiwei, he should have received a high salary. β
There are calculations, car conditions, models, these actually have a difference coefficient, are calculated to several decimal places, and strive to be fair.
"By the way, Davis, is Lao Zhang in the yard?"
Hearing the boss's question, Davis said, "It shouldn't be there."
I really don't know about the others, but the yellow knife he returned the night before yesterday is estimated to be the first, and I just happened to come across it.
He may have been out of the car this morning, and these drivers will have a maximum of one day off after returning to Yellowknife, and the boss should be able to meet Gla Lake. β
Davis knew that this Lao Zhang should be an old colleague of the boss and Mr. Xiang, so he had the impression that the other party was also the captain of the oil transportation team.
Workers are busy, hanging two extra-long carriages behind a huge long-headed wagonβtwo axles at the rear, three axles at the middle junction, and three axles at the front, an eight-axle trailer like a train.
This kind of trailer is common in the Australian outback, and there are even five or six cars there, but it is the first time Zhang Nan has seen it in North America.
Seeing that the truck being transferred was very distinctive, Zhang Nan asked what it was loading.
Davis also didn't know that he was the general manager of the mine, not the director of the dispatch room.
Then, the accompanying staff saw a driver at the front of the car, and hurriedly ran up to ask - don't disturb the staff, they will still be transporting boxes to the special trailer car, or it is better to ask the driver, because this will be the driver is relatively empty.
As a result, Zhang Nan looked at the driver with a leather hat, and actually walked quickly.
Zhang Nan pointed his finger twice, and finally found the word he needed in his mind, "Company Commander Sun!"
When the other party heard this, the brick took a closer look and recognized Zhang Nanlai.
"Boss?"
"What an old board, call me Xiao Zhang!"
Zhang Nan went up and gave the other party a bear hug, haha laughed.
The people around him are called bosses, but although this rare guy is his own employee, he is an old friend, so it is better to follow his previous habits.
cordial, and it will not damage his usual majesty.
Sun Lianchang, Sun Hongming, took his car to Hetian the year before last, and asked him to make a fortune in 20 years, but he didn't think about coming to Canada.
"When did you come here?"
"This spring, I majored at the end of last year, but I didn't have a car when I returned to my hometown, so I was asked to enter the factory as a deputy chief of the security department. Later, Head Qiu wrote me a letter, saying that you are recruiting old drivers who can run on the ice and earn foreign exchange, so I will go to Yan County..."
This guy is also a bold and courageous person, he didn't even want the original job, and brought several old subordinates with him.
After listening to the other party's experience in the past two years, Zhang Nan asked, "Is there any Hetian Yu I said?"
Sun Hongming said with a smile: "The sum of carrying back and consignment back is more than 200 catties, and everyone in our group is doing that, listen to you." Hehe... Old comrades-in-arms said that the price of jade in Hotan has risen a lot now, and the same is true for our family.
But let's not sell it, at least hide it for another 20 years. β
Zhang Nan is also laughing: he has tuned more than 3,000 tons, and it will become a "big joke" in the Chinese jade world in the future, and it will also be a legend of wealth.
But it is impossible for me to be short of money, so I keep it if I like it, and when the Hetian jade seed material is mined for dozens of meters, it seems that I have a false name of the king of Chinese jade.
"Let's have a meal together?"
Zhang Nan sent out an invitation, but he didn't expect Sun Hongming to decline politely.
"Not today, it's about to start. It's all a team of 4 cars, and my car is loaded with fresh vegetables and fruits, and it's still transported by air.
The environment in the mine is relatively bad, but there is no shortage of fish and meat, but these vegetables and fruits are expensive, and they are in a hurry. β
In fact, the time for a meal can be arranged in the dispatch room, but others are active and disciplined, and Zhang Nan is not good at disrupting the rhythm of transportation.
"In that case, I'm going to the mine early tomorrow morning, and we'll have dinner together..."
This is good, there are still more than ten or twenty minutes to load, and Zhang Nan visited the front of the heavy truck driven by Sun Hongming again.
Very tall, long head, there are actually 12 stalls!
Wide air-type leather seats, air conditioning and heating, audio equipment, radio equipment... These configurations are available, and this driving environment does not know how much more comfortable than the old liberation and Dongfeng!
500 horsepower, great power!
This is not the end, Zhang Nan found that this car is not only a long head, but also a large section behind the cab - the backmost is a bunk bed, and there are small kitchen equipment and bathrooms in the middle, and even a folding dining table.
This is a truck, it's just an RV plus a truck, don't be too cool!
Sun Hongming, who accompanied him, said to Zhang Nan: "If only I could drive such a car as a soldier, the hydraulic assistance is more comfortable than driving a high-end car, and the living conditions are comparable to living in a hotel!"
Our team is all the same American car, 400 kilometers or two drivers, just get off every three or four hours during the day to eat at the support station and go to the toilet, the rest of the time all the way non-stop, thirteen or fourteen hours to arrive..."
The drivers are so satisfied with such a truck, thinking that they drove the old liberation in the severe cold of minus 30 degrees, and some places are still plateaus and lack of power, but now this car is simply cool!
Of course, truck heads with kitchens and bathrooms are in the minority, but with heavy goods vehicle fronts made in the United States and Canada, this comfortable bed is always available.
And in order to cope with the practical problems of sparse population and long and cold winters, even if the front of the car sold in Canada does not have a kitchen, there are still simple food heating equipment.
When Sun Hongming and others saw these large front cars for the first time, they felt that this was a mobile home, and they were so satisfied.
As for the treatment, you can earn at least 20,000 or 30,000 Canadian dollars in half a year, even if the driver's income is high in his hometown, it is a fantasy to compare it with this.
After chatting about the ice surface highway again, Sun Hongming also arrived at the departure time, and Zhang Nan and his group no longer interfered with the transportation, so they left.
Watching the train-like trailer drive away, Zhang Nan really wanted to take this ticket to Glahu, but unfortunately he didn't have time, he had to go back to New York on the 24th to have dinner with his family, otherwise those women would have to scold themselves to death.
It's not about running long distances, it's about feeling the high speed of the ice.
After a pity, the group had already arrived at the office of the freight yard - the heating was very good, and it was very different from the cold outside.
Hearing why the boss was a pity, Davis said with a smile: "Boss, after arriving at Lake Gerla, run around, where the ice thickness is one meter two or three, and the 70-ton truck can run casually." β
