Chapter Seventy-Nine: Shaoyang, Hunan
Thinking of buying a car, several people lost even the idea of panning for gold.
I just feel that everything is boring.
On the second day, the third day, I searched for two days in a row, and the harvest was less than 100 grams.
"Forget it, let's go back first. ”
The next day, he began to pack up his things, three people, four horses and two dogs, with more than 20 gold bars and two pieces of dog head gold, Zhao Guangming insisted on taking two big black heavens, and when he walked to the Tagong grassland, he took a detour and came to a small village.
The two of them hugged the big black sky and went to the herdsman's house to knock on the door.
"Forget it, brother, do you still lack this money? ”
"Who is not short of money, what I said at the beginning, why don't you admit it, I tell you, if you wear a lama's clothes, how much money you want, I can give you how much money. ”
"Don't go. ”
"If you don't go, then you wait for me, and I'll go by myself. ”
Holding the big black sky, Zhao Guangming turned around twice and ran to a herdsman's house and knocked on the door.
After a delay of more than half an hour, a yak came out.
returned to Kangding, paid two months' rent, put the horse and dog back to Uncle Ram's corral for foster care, and settled the rent for renting horses, Fan Yang had not much money left, less than 1,000 yuan.
After thinking about it, the three of them didn't bring Cordyceps, so they traveled lightly, just a travel bag, and returned to Chengdu after a day's bus.
"Do you want to go see the car first?" Back in Chengdu, Zhao Guangming took a deep breath of the turbid air at the lotus pond bus station.
At this time, it was the height of summer, and the weather in Chengdu was like a furnace.
The three of them found a stall to eat ice powder and ice cream, and Zhao Guangming was anxious to go to see the car first.
On the way, the three of them discussed and went to Shaoyang Zhao Guangming's hometown to withdraw money, but to buy a car, they still went to Chengdu and got a license plate in Sichuan, so the three of them took the bus to the red pai building and went to the second-hand car market for a few turns.
Zhao Guangming never forgot the car, a second-hand Fukang only cost more than 20,000 yuan, and he was very hot.
Fan Yang was dismissive of this, and it was better to buy a Fukang than to buy an Alto.
I fell in love with a Beijing Jeep 2020, with an army-green appearance, the roof is already a steel frame structure, a 492 engine, 85 horsepower, an 86-year-old car, and the price of the new car is 66000, this car is very well maintained, second-hand 48000, and I also fell in love with a Grand Cherokee, but the price is slightly higher, and it costs about 90,000 yuan to bring the transfer.
After Fan Yang's repeated explanations, Zhao Guangming still agreed, after all, the three of them pooled their money to buy a car, and it was too good to buy it, and it would be troublesome to divide the account when the time came.
"Master, can you light the fire, can I go out and try it?"
"Yes. "The car seller was a second-hand dealer, and although a few of them were not dressed well, their attitude was still very good.
Seeing Fan Yang climb up to the driver's seat, he was still a little surprised: "Young man, do you have a driver's license?"
"Well, not yet, but it's okay, I'll try the performance, don't worry, it will open." ”
I asked for the key and sat in the driver's seat, the Beijing jeep of this era, everything is mainly practical, there is no excessive decoration, most of the functions are still integrated on the steering wheel, Fan Yang took a look at it, roughly knew it, tried the wipers, cornering lights, shook the gear handle, put it in neutral, twisted the key, boom, the car hit.
When the car seller saw that it would indeed drive, he was relieved.
Sitting in the co-pilot, he turned on the radio and turned down the frequency band, and a Cantonese song sounded in the car space.
Missing a door and Zhao Guangming sat in the back seat, and when they heard the pleasant music coming from the speaker, they immediately floated, and they couldn't wait to buy it immediately.
"The first gear is here, right?
Fan Yang pushed down the gear handlebar, in his previous life, he was used to automatic transmission, and the manual transmission had not been opened for many years, and he was still a little uncertain, and there was a problem that the reverse gear of some cars was different, some models were on the left side up, and some models were left side down.
So just ask.
The car seller twitched in the face.
Reluctantly nodded.
"Is this a clutch?"
The dealer stopped at once: "Forget it, I'll come." ”
"No, I don't. ”
Fan Yang was loose, clicked, and turned off.
The peddler's face was even more ugly.
Before he could stop it, Fan Yang moved quickly, ignited again, hit the accelerator with one foot, and the car jumped forward violently.
I almost hit the wall with the first foot of the accelerator.
But he made a sharp turn in the steering wheel and rushed out without danger.
scared the three of them a lot.
And drove straight onto the road.
But I didn't expect to start so rushing, and when I got on the road, I gradually stabilized down, and the more I drove it, the smoother it became.
Missing a door, it's as simple as driving a car.
It was learned in a few minutes.
I took a turn outside, returned the car to the dealer, and agreed to pick it up in a few days.
Chengdu is more than 1,400 kilometers away from Zhao Guangming's hometown, took a train for two days and two nights, arrived in Changsha, stayed in Changsha for a day, and spent another day to transfer to Shaoyang.
Zhao Guangming's home is in a small town, and it is also a peasant family, but the house has been renovated a long time ago, and it has been repaired into two floors, three halls, two rooms on the right, two rooms on the right, and a kitchen on the left, a large courtyard room for pigsty, and a total of 10 houses on the upper and lower floors.
In other words, Zhao Guangming alone has the financial ability to build this kind of compound house.
Even in the 90s, this house could not be repaired without 20,000 or 30,000 yuan.
Zhao Guangming returned to Shaoyang, and took the two of them to buy a few large bags of things, schoolbags, skirts, malt cream, rice candy, and a lot of food and play.
Two daughters, a son, the eldest daughter is married, the younger daughter is 13 years old, just in junior high school, and the youngest son is only 9 years old.
There are also two elderly people in the house, a sister-in-law, who has not yet married, so she lives with Zhao Guangming, the eldest son.
On Tiankan, Zhao Guangming's sister, named Zhao Qian, was wearing a pair of floral cloth pants, stepping on a pair of rubber shoes, digging the soil, and saw Zhao Guangming coming back from a distance, dropped the hoe, and went to the house to call the whole family out.
Seeing Zhao Guangming from afar, one big and one small, his son and daughter ran along the field, calling for dad and dad to stick up.
Zhao Guangming handed over the things he bought to Fan Yanghe, one in each hand, and walked home with his son and daughter in his arms.
His dad was a lame man, standing at the door with a cane, his fucking body was quite tough, and he also ran over to help carry things, and patted the dust on Fan Yang and the missing door, and he was also very enthusiastic.
"Big brother, why did you come back?"
The sister-in-law is still very beautiful, eighteen or nineteen years old, with a ponytail, seeing Fan Yang and the two young men who are missing a door, her face is slightly red, her face is very tender, she helped to take two bags in Fan Yang's hands, and walked home with them on her back.
A wolfdog barked at the door.
When I entered the house, I made a lot of noise, washed my hands and face, and my mother cooked, and my sister-in-law took her son and daughter and played with toys, so that she slowly quieted down.
There were peanuts, walnuts, and some raisins on the table, and his mother made two glasses of wine, Zhao Guangming and the old man drank on the table, and followed the customs, Fan Yang and the lack of a door also served a glass of white wine.
The old man's legs were lame, and his spirits were very strong, so he smoked Fan Yang and Missing a door, and asked, "Who are these two dolls?"
"My two apprentices. Zhao Guangming replied.
The old man looked at the two of them, saw Fan Yang, nodded, but saw that there was an empty sleeve tube missing, and asked, "What's the matter with this doll?"
"Innate, uncle, you just told me to lack a door. ”
"Hello uncle, my name is Fan Yang. ”
The old man snorted, and whispered to Zhao Guangming: "Oh, this time I came back, did you withdraw money?"
"Well, out. Zhao Guangming replied.
"How much?"
"A dozen. ”
