Chapter 1359: A Hard Journey

The strong searchlight light pierced Liu Qingyu and Guo Chengzhu's eyes, and Guo Chengzhu could only quickly step on the brakes by feeling, and he could stop at the prefabricated house.

As soon as the car was stable, five or six men in uniform came out of the darkness next to it and surrounded Guo Chengzhu's truck.

Seeing these people, Guo Chengzhu's face, which was originally a little relieved and a little happy, suddenly turned pale, and his face was full of depression, disappointment and helplessness.

At this time, a young man in his twenties looked at Guo Chengzhu with disdain and said: "Oh, isn't this Guo Chengzhu from Daguo Village, I said Guo Chengzhu, why did you drive out so early, what are you pulling in this car?"

As he spoke, the young man waved his hand and said, "Brothers, get in the car and check to see if he is overloaded and see if there are any prohibited items in the car." ”

Guo Chengzhu was silent for a moment, he said with a miserable smile: "Okay, Wu Yongmin, you don't need to be inspected, I'll admit it, let's say, how much is the fine?"

Wu Yongmin saw Guo Chengzhu's appointment, his face was full of pride, and he said with a smile: "It's still the old rule, a fine of 600, no ticketing, if you have to ask for a ticket, a fine of 1000." Which do you choose?"

"I'll pick 600. Guo Chengzhu said with helplessness in his tone. As long as he is a farmer, he will not choose 1000, because it is impossible for him to be reimbursed for the invoice. In this case, you can only reduce your losses as much as possible.

Wu Yongmin heard Guo Chengzhu say this, and the smile on his face became even more proud: "I said Guo Chengzhu, I didn't say you, why do you always want to ship grain out to sell, you should know that the price that my brother Wu Yongtai gave you is not low, even if your car is transported to the county seat to sell, at most it can be sold for an extra one or two thousand yuan, and if you remove the expenses on the road, you won't make much more money than selling it to my brother." You dirt buns, your brains just don't open your mind. ”

Guo Chengzhu's face was pale, but he didn't speak. He was thinking in his heart: "Grandma, Lao Tzu has to fight for the one-tenth chance not to be seized by you, Lao Tzu would rather be fined, and would rather spend the money on the road than give that money to your brother Wu Yongtai's vampire." ”

At this moment, Liu Qingyu was watching and listening from the side, and everything in front of him was clear. Obviously, the staff of the uniformed transportation management office in front of him should be the younger brother of Wu Yongtai, a grain broker in Tianyu Town, and the two of them cooperate quite tacitly, one is responsible for purchasing grain at a low price, and the other is responsible for traffic management.

It's really a money-making brother, a pit man, a father and son!

Liu Qingyu's eyes rolled, and while Guo Chengzhu was groping for his wallet in his pocket, he directly took out 1,000 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Wu Yongmin and said, "Here you go, this is 1,000 yuan, give us a ticket." ”

Now Liu Qingyu is wearing an ordinary casual clothes, and his hairstyle has been slightly adjusted, at this moment, the sky is dark, under the dim light on the car, Wu Yongmin took the money and counted it, exactly one thousand yuan, and glanced at Liu Qingyu in some surprise, and found that he didn't know him, so he frowned and asked: "Guo Chengzhu, who is this person?"

Liu Qingyu replied first: "I am Guo Chengzhu's cousin, I came to visit relatives this time, just in time for my cousin to sell grain, so I followed." Okay, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get a ticket, we still have to hurry. ”

Wu Yongmin smiled disdainfully when he saw this: "Guo Chengzhu, your cousin seems to be from the city, and the tone of his speech is obviously not our local accent." ”

Guo Chengzhu heard Liu Qingyu say this, and knew in his heart that Liu Qingyu was unwilling to reveal his identity, so he said: "Oh, he works in Lanshan City, and he came back to visit relatives this time, and he happened to be pulled over by me to sell grain together." ”

"Oh, working in the city, no wonder you have to issue a ticket. Okay, then I'll give you an invoice. While speaking, Wu Yongmin took out a receipt that had already been issued from his pocket and handed it to Liu Qingyu and said, "Here you go, take it, this is a receipt of 1,000 yuan." ”

Liu Qingyu took the receipt, looked at it twice, and found that it was changed to the official seal of the Qingyuan County Transportation Management Office, so he didn't say anything anymore, patted Guo Chengzhu on the shoulder and said, "Cousin, let's drive on the road." ”

Seeing this, Guo Chengzhu also knew that now was not the time to speak, so he took off the handbrake and stepped on the accelerator, and the truck continued to gallop forward.

After driving out for a distance, Guo Chengzhu said with a wry smile: "Mayor Liu, the 1,000 yuan can only be returned to you after I sell the grain, and I don't have much money on me now." ”

Liu Qingyu smiled and waved his hand and said, "You don't have to worry about this money, how they collected it, and how they will return it to me." Lao Guo, are you going to be fined every time you sell grain?"

Guo Chengzhu smiled bitterly and said: "I can't say that I will be fined every time, but six or seven times out of ten times I have been caught by their bunny cubs, although they usually get up at about five o'clock in the morning to go to work to check, but every once in a while, a group of people will get up an hour or two in advance to conduct random inspections, so as to catch some grain farmers like me who want to take advantage of the time before they go to work." Although we knew that they would wake up early every once in a while, there was nothing we could do about it, and we couldn't find any way to avoid the penalty except to get up a little earlier than them. ”

Liu Qingyu heard this, and his heart was full again.

The common people are too simple, although they know in their hearts that this fine is unreasonable, but in the face of those who wear official uniforms, they dare not resist, and they do not have any temper, because they know that once they resist, the final result can only be that they suffer more.

Liu Qingyu's face became more and more ugly, and the dissatisfaction with Qingyuan County became stronger and stronger.

The car was still speeding in the night. Finally, after driving for more than an hour, when the sky was just dawning, Liu Qingyu and their grain cart finally stopped on a straight and wide road. In front, there are already rows of grain trucks.

A few hundred meters away, several police cars were parked, and more than a dozen traffic police officers were inspecting the passing grain trucks.

Seeing those traffic policemen, Guo Chengzhu's face turned pale again, and his face became extremely ugly.

Liu Qingyu saw the change in Guo Chengzhu's face, and asked with some doubts: "Old Guo, what's wrong with you?"

Lao Guo sighed and said, "Mayor Liu, it seems that I will be punished again this time." ”

"Why?" Liu Qingyu looked at Guo Chengzhu with some surprise. He clearly knew that just over an hour ago, Liu Qingyu had just been fined 1,000 yuan by the Highway Transportation Management Office.

Now, how can you be punished again?

Guo Chengzhu pointed to the traffic police a few hundred meters in front of him and said: "Mayor Liu, have you seen it? The reason why I set off at 4 o'clock is not only to avoid those people in the transportation management office, but also to avoid the traffic police in the county town. This road is the only way leading to the grain depot in the county, and it has only been repaired for more than two years, and this road has been built so wide and well, and it stands to reason that it should be for the convenience of our peasants to sell grain, but in fact, since this road was repaired, it has become more and more difficult for us peasants to sell grain. ”

Liu Qingyu was stunned: "Why is this happening?"

Guo Chengzhu sighed and said, "Mayor Liu, do you know what these traffic police are investigating?"

Liu Qingyu pondered a little and said, "It should be to check overloading and violations, right?"

Guo Chengzhu nodded: "It's basically the same, you see, this road is so easy to walk, but because this road is not only an important passage in and out of the grain depot, but also one of the important passages in and out of the scene, so the county has made a relevant kneeling in order to alleviate urban congestion, and the county prohibits medium-sized freight vehicles carrying more than 8 tons from entering this section of the road throughout the day, and this road section has strict restrictions on the number of truck axles." Because our car is a family car, the carrying capacity is about 4 to 8 tons, plus today's grain is four or five tons, so it stands to reason that it should not be fined, but the other grain trucks are not so lucky, most of the grain trucks weigh about 40 tons, which is a prohibited vehicle. Therefore, these vehicles are forbidden to pass through this section of the road, but if you want to go to the grain depot to sell grain, there is only such a road to go, so many vehicles in order to be able to go to the grain depot to sell grain, can only rush to the time before the traffic police go to work at 8 o'clock in the morning. Otherwise, once found by the traffic police, you will be fined. ”

Liu Qingyu glanced forward when he heard this, and sure enough, he saw that the entire convoy was moving very slowly, but the doubts in Liu Qingyu's heart were still not solved, and he asked: "Lao Guo, since your car is not a prohibited vehicle, why are you still worried about being fined?"

Guo Chengzhu sighed and said: "Although our car can pass, but fines are still indispensable, unless I can avoid the inspection of the traffic police, which is why I set off so early, but I didn't expect that the traffic police would go to work so early today." After the general traffic police go to work, they mainly do two inspections, one inspection is to check whether the vehicle belongs to the ranks of prohibited traffic, if it belongs to this ranks, it is to be fined and deducted points. The amount of fines generally ranges from 200 yuan to 500 yuan, which is nothing, but the deduction of points will make many cars uncomfortable. Of course, if you want to save trouble and avoid being fined and deducted points, you can find those roaming scalpers on the side of the road, as long as you pay them about 200 yuan to 500 yuan, you don't have to carry fines and deducted points. ”

Liu Qingyu was stunned: "Scalpers? Is this okay? There are more than a dozen traffic policemen in front?"

Guo Chengzhu pointed to a bald man wandering not far in front of him and said: "Mayor Liu, have you seen it, that bald man is a scalper, you see, he is wandering around the various car drivers, just to persuade these people to pay him." ”

Liu Qingyu looked at it, and sure enough, in just a few minutes, the bald man successfully persuaded the three drivers to pay him, and then he took out the phone to contact and reported the license plate numbers of these drivers.

Seeing this, Liu Qingyu's face became extremely grim. It's just that the doubts in his heart have not been solved. Why did Guo Chengzhu, who met the regulations, say that he himself should be fined?i1292
