Lao Yang is an old driver.

In his early years, he drove a taxi, but later with the increase in the company's money, and the disadvantages of various coercive policies, at the age of fifty, he resolutely resigned and went to sea......

I opened Didi.

The family refused at first, but in the past few years, as the first batch of Didi car owners, the praise has been affected, and the system is of high quality, which is more free than driving a taxi, and earns more.

The appearance of the newly bought Changan car four years ago was shiny and new by him, but the problem is that it is 30,000 kilometers in four Chinese New Year's Eve, the heart is old, small problems are continuous, and the overhaul into the maintenance shop every three to five is a serious delay in business.

Now Lao Yang is faced with a choice......

Either buy a new car, and don't consider second-hand, so as not to have trouble repairing problems.

He is optimistic about the car, 200,000 Passat, in his circle of friends, not many people can take a fancy to this car, when he buys a car, he sends it to WeChat, Hi Ti Passat, have face!

Or, it is to go to the company as a driver, with the popularity of Didi, all kinds of taxi software have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and Didi's car owner model is different, the company is on the job, monthly wages, sports cars get commissions.

If he chooses the latter, Lao Yang will not have to buy a car, because the other company found him, values his praise rate and the number of orders for so long, and is willing to gather a group of reliable drivers to run cars for the company, and the car is provided by the company.

Such a choice saves expenses, but the income will definitely shrink, but there is also room for growth, the other party issued a condition, the contract will be signed for five years, and after the first five years, as long as Lao Yang is willing, he will sign the second five years.

This means that Lao Yang, who is 52 years old this year, can work until he is 62 years old.

In addition, the company also has a promotion system, as long as you do a good job, good performance, service in place, you can 'upgrade', if you can drive Mercedes-Benz, Audi and other 'luxury exclusive cars' wages skyrocketed, as well as all kinds of tips.

In a normal person's view, the second option is definitely the best choice.

But Lao Yang is also used to being idle, and finally got out of the taxi company, how free he is to drive Didi, he is afraid that he will be controlled by the company and suffer from the whimsy of being angry, and he is in his fifties, and he is called a leader to a young man in his twenties and thirties all day long, which is not a taste.

In the final analysis, he can't let go of his face, and he doesn't want to be controlled, he wants to buy a new car to show off his wealth, stab the eyes of those former taxi colleagues, and see how powerful my old Yang is, the Passat is all on.

Nine fifty p.m.

Lao Yang is ready to collect the car, ready to pick a drop by the way and go home directly, flipped through and saw a 700 + 80 long distance, his eyes lit up, this sum of money is thrown away from the app commission, fuel costs, can top two days of income, 80 is the active surcharge of passengers, the platform does not draw money, can fall directly in the pocket.

Almost without thinking about it, Lao Yang ordered to take the order, but in the end he was a step too slow, and the order was snatched away by others.

Lao Yang scolded: "MD, it's order grabbing software again, Sima!!"

He was really.

There are not many such lists, he has reacted fast enough, how can he not grab the professional skills cultivated by four years of experience in receiving orders? Obviously, it is the legendary order-grabbing software.

Now at ten o'clock, according to the order location to make a round trip, three o'clock can get home, sleep until the next day at eleven o'clock, eat a steamed bun and continue to work, it is simply beautiful.

I don't know which one is cheaper to smash.

I was sulking, and Lao Yang didn't want to take the order, so he sent a message to his wife, prepared dinner, and drove back.

Just as the car started, the missed order appeared on the phone again.

Lao Yang Dengshi stretched out his hand and poked it violently, and the phone was about to fall off the bracket, and the result was ...... Failed to grab the order.

"Dog's day, which coward, do you owe it or not? paralyzed take the order and return the order, and take the order?" Lao Yang scolded angrily, and lost his temper directly, who made him old, high-tech can't play, he specially let his son who held his mobile phone all day long to study for a long time, and he didn't figure out how to do the order grabbing software.

Sighed and continued home.

However, the car had only taken two steps before the order came out again.

Lao Yang laughed angrily at this time, shook his head, and simply ignored it, sure enough, it was also a blink of an eye, and the order was gone.

All the way home, this was repeated many times.

Lao Yang didn't order either, just watched those cowards grab orders and return orders, like a nervous disorder.

When I arrived downstairs, the order was once again snatched up and the order was refunded.

Lao Yang decided, try to grab it again, and if he can't grab it, he will go home and sleep.

This time, he was not in a hurry, and after the order appeared, he waited for a second before stretching out his hand lightly...... Tap the screen.

Ding dong!

The order was successful!!

Lao Yang smiled, it was not good, so he hurriedly took off his mobile phone and called the passenger.

The phone was connected, and a slurred male voice came from there: "Oh, don't just call, you're coming, I've been waiting for more than 20 minutes, ...... Hurry up, I'm going to see my wife, and if it's too late, she'll go to bed later. ”

Hehehe.

Lao Yang finally understood, so he said that how could the group of cowards who used order grabbing software put the meat in their mouths?

It turned out to be a wine Mengzi, and no one dared to take it.

This situation Lao Yang has encountered too much, the situation is better, people to the place at most to spit in the car, the situation is bad on, and when the passenger wakes up the next day, a phone call to customer service, asking your driver why I pulled me to the wilderness in the middle of the night?

The money will definitely not be refunded, but the company will deduct points for you, which directly affects the probability of the system matching high-quality orders.

And the passenger, 100% gave a bad review, adding fuel and vinegar to describe the driver's nonsense.

Those who know how will definitely not accept the order, and will refund the order directly.

But.

Lao Yang took a deep breath and said into the phone: "Okay, is the positioning accurate?" I'll go over now, you wait, I'll be there in fifteen minutes at most." ”

"For the last time, if you don't come, I'll complain to you!"

Smack, the phone is disconnected.

Lao Yang couldn't cry or laugh, knowing that he would be busy again tonight.

Fifteen minutes later.

When he arrived at the place, he saw a man in his twenties or thirties urinating on the green belt and not running...... Definitely him.

Lao Yang got out of the car and shouted to the other party: "Mr. Tang, I am the driver of Didi." ”

Mr. Tang, who defecated and defecated everywhere, shook his hand violently and hit the belt with a 'bang', he lowered his head and poked the belt in the eye, and it took a lot of effort to pull the belt with a 'bang', and turned his head with a drunken smile on his face: "You're finally here, let's go, let's go." ”

After swaying down the green belt, Mr. Tang went directly into the car, but he didn't let Lao Yang help him.

Lao Yang smiled and followed into the car, and the confined space was suddenly full of alcohol: "Where are you going?"

"Qinbei, Qinbei Petroleum Plant, Second Branch, First Workshop...... Oops, you just pull me at the gate, and the private car is not allowed to enter without a pass. "Most of the wine Mengzi talk a lot.

Lao Yang was already surprised, started the car, and set off.

"Why are you going to Qinbei alone so late? Where is the unit?"

Mr. Tang said: "My wife works there, I miss her, go and see." ”

"It's too late to get there, it's just a little bit there. ”

Mr. Tang said: "No matter how late it is, I have to meet and say, I don't go, I can only wait for her to come back, she comes back with the elderly and children, and these words are inconvenient to say......"

It sounded very winding, but Lao Yang understood it and couldn't help but guess: "Two people...... Quarreled, divorced, or what? Oh, I don't mean anything else, just watch you drink like this, I feel uncomfortable to watch. ”

Mr. Tang was poked in the weakness, and his face was depressed: "Quarrel?" we don't have time to quarrel, she only comes back once a week in Qinbei, I sometimes work night shifts in the hospital, I sleep when I come back, I sleep and meet at the dinner table, it's time to go to work again, and when I come back the next day, she goes back to the unit at noon, I don't get tired and go to the station to see her off, and I continue to ......sleep when I'm tired."

"I've dragged her down, how good is she used to be? Sitting in an office in Qinzhong City! But when I get married, I want to buy a house, I want to have a baby, I have money everywhere, my salary alone is definitely not enough, she also wants to earn more, she has to go to a first-line factory, a woman deals with oil pipes, engine oil, and oil all day long, what kind of man am I." ”

"Two days ago, I had an accident in the hospital, the patient's family came to make trouble, the hospital held me accountable, and asked me to suspend my job for investigation.

Speaking of this, Mr. Tang's throat was dry, he looked at Lao Yang's water cup, and drank it without saying a word.

Hearing that he was helpless, Lao Yang also thought about it and asked: "What about the result?

Mr. Tang muttered a large cup of tea before saying: "It's okay to be fired, they are purely disgusting, they want to send me to the township hospital in Zhou County to support the rural medical treatment, MD, those dog leaders punished me again, and I can have a good political performance, killing two fucking birds with one stone!"

"Are you going then?"

"Go to TM eggs, I left the hospital, without surgery fees and performance, I can't live, my children are still alive, and the mortgage is still not repaid?"

"You're going to resign?"

"Hehe, I'm really going to resign, but our Cheng Yuan is still humane, and I have found a way back. ”

"Where are you going?"

"Africa, hahaha, I didn't expect Lao Tzu to be able to go abroad in his lifetime!"

"African ?!!" Lao Yang was shocked, "Medical assistance? That place is bitter and chaotic, I heard that there are accidents among Chinese people every year." ”

Mr. Tang tilted his head, flattened the chair, his chest and abdomen rose and fell greatly, and he let out a long breath: "I was still thinking just now, why did I agree immediately, and I didn't discuss it with my daughter-in-law, it's Africa, I'm also afraid, I'm afraid of loneliness, I'm afraid of turmoil, I'm afraid of getting sick...... You know that part of Africa, unlike we here, where a lot of the virus came from. ”

"But I just TM agreed without even thinking about it...... I'm being troubled by money. ”

"Indeed, I can resign and find a new home, no matter how I say that I am also an attending officer, I can't get an iron job, as long as there is a number of surgeries, the salary will not be too low, and I can get back on the establishment if I have the opportunity. ”

"But even so, everything is still the same. ”

"I calculated an account, if I don't go, according to my current salary level, 120,000 a year, 4,000 mortgages per month, 2,000 for children's education and training, and 2,000 for the living expenses of both parents, a total of 8,000, 96,000 a year, this is not counting in case someone has a headache and brain fever, and the elderly are seriously ill and hospitalized. ”

"The daughter-in-law wants to use cosmetics, right? The child has to buy clothes, pants, and shoes when she grows taller, and the elderly have to buy some health care products from time to time. ”

"My daughter-in-law's salary is 100,000 a year, and she can save 7-80,000 yuan, three hundred thousand in four Chinese New Year's Eve, which sounds like a lot, but if you really want to save so much money, it is not life, that is called living, living a tight life." ”

"My parents raised me with hard work, and my daughter-in-law's parents raised her, shouldn't she have a rich old age?

"My wife followed me back then, and suffered from the pain of pregnancy in October to give birth to a child, is it possible for her to wipe Dabao sod honey every day? a set of clothes to wear for a year? ”

"Not to mention the cost of going to junior high school, high school, and college in the future, it's difficult, it's too difficult!"

"Good luck, I will be promoted and raised in the future, and my life will be more relaxed, but bad luck, I have not seen it in my life, and the main thing is ...... My daughter-in-law and I have been married for seven years, and the time we have been together must have been less than seven months.

"But what about I'm going to Africa? ”

"The basic salary of the hospital is paid as usual, there is a monthly subsidy, and I can still have the money left after paying the mortgage, but what about my daughter-in-law......'s salary? Hahaha, dollars, six thousand a month, that's forty thousand. ”

"In a year, I can save almost 500,000 yuan, which is really four years full, and 2 million is firmly in hand. ”

"I thought about it, four years later, two million saved, not moving, the mortgage is still slowly repaid, this money is kept for my son, junior high school, high school are the best schools, and when I come back, my mother will also be called back from Qinbei, I have money, I don't need her to work hard and live separately, just take care of the child at home to study, go to college in the future, graduate school, maybe go abroad, this money is enough for him." ”

"While the four old people are still moving, they go out to travel twice a year, and they also enjoy the blessings of their sons and uncles. ”

Speaking of this, Lao Yang looked at the depression on Mr. Tang's face, swept it away, just smirked, and laughed silly: "When you are a man, you have to do this little, make your wife happy, let your children succeed in school, and let the old man enjoy his old age in peace." ”

"Although four years is a long time, it is also very fast, oops, my wife is a hard-mouthed mother-in-law on the surface, she didn't let her go to Qinbei to work at the beginning, she also turned her face with me, saying that she has hands and feet, and she can earn more, so why not make it. ”

"I don't know her yet? The night before I went, I hid in the bed alone and cried, not to mention how wronged I was, but even today, she never messed with me, saving me enough face. ”

"I'm telling her now that I'm going to Africa, hehe, see if she's still holding back, but I've thought about it, she's stopping me, I'm going to go, I'm going to let her live a good life. ”

As he spoke, Mr. Tang should have been tired, and his voice gradually became quieter......

At the end, he simply closed his eyes: "Brother, don't bother me, I really drank too much...... I'll sleep for a while, recuperate, and then I'll have to tell my daughter-in-law what I said to you again, and she will definitely cry, and I will have to coax her, woman, I have to coax ......."

"When you get to the place, call me, don't worry, drive slowly!"

Before I knew it, there was a snoring sound in the car.

Lao Yang put the steering wheel, parked the car on the side of the road, opened the window, lit a cigarette, and seemed to be contemplative.

Just a cigarette.

He took out his mobile phone and called his wife.

"Hey, haven't you come back? Why haven't you been home for so long, and I'm about to call you. ”

Lao Yang smiled bitterly: "I took a wine Mengzi and went to Qinbei." ”

"Ah, you said you were going back, you were coming back, what are you doing with orders? My son is still waiting for you, saying that he will play a football game at school tomorrow, ask if you want to cheer him on, I said I will bring you a message, he is not happy, I guess this stinky boy wants to delay the time and not sleep, and play with his mobile phone for a while. ”

"Don't delay, hurry up, the old way, flirt with people at the police station, don't get into trouble. ”

Lao Yang's smile became even more bitter, and he squinted at the police station on the side of the road, he really wanted to give people to the police uncle, and he had been driving around here for a long time, just waiting for this Mr. Tang to fall asleep.

Since the first time he met this kind of wine Mengzi, he later did this, drunk people love to make trouble, drunk sober up and spend money is not happy, every time he sends the wine Mengzi to the police station, he uses the passenger's mobile phone to cancel the order, and the next day he is sure to receive a thank you call from the passenger -

"Brother, thank you very much, oops, fortunately you didn't leave yesterday, I broke up with my girlfriend for two years, I love to find her when I drink, she has been married for a few months, you really sent me yesterday, maybe you will fight with his husband." ”

However, this time, Lao Yang decided to take the job.

"It's definitely going to be late tonight, although this guy drank too much, but there is something really wrong, he talked to me a lot, I have to send someone. ”

Lao Yang's wife was stunned: "It's going to be fine, right?

"Don't worry, you can't make a mistake, can I do something?"

chattered for a while, arranged for his wife and children to go to bed quickly, and Lao Yang was ready to hang up the phone.

Before hanging up the phone, he thought about it for a while, and added: "By the way, daughter-in-law, I thought about it, the invitation of the company over there, I plan to try it." ”

Lao Yang's wife was stunned: "You agreed? Why? Didn't you say that you want to be free, now Didi is also very good, aren't you also optimistic about the new car? 200,000 Passat, didn't you say that you can find someone to apply for you for the 'exclusive car' treatment?"

Lao Yang said: "Forget it, what about 200,000 yuan, what are you doing, keep the money, buy you a few good clothes, buy some cosmetics, and get a new computer and basketball shoes for your son." Besides, my son will go to college in two years, so I thought about it, so I should enroll him in an elite cram school and strive to get into a good university...... What about the broken car now, if it is sold to Lao Huang, doesn't he also want to rent it? ”

"If I go to work in a company over there, I can reach the age of 62, and I can save 800,000 or 900,000 yuan in 10 years, right? When my son graduates, let's sell the old house, add some money to him and pay him a down payment, and I will have to marry a daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Lao Yang's wife is really confused, she buys clothes and cosmetics for herself, and changes her son's computer, is this the old Yang who used to pick the door?

"Lao Yang, are you okay? Suddenly, why are you telling me so much?"

"Hehe, it's okay, I just figured it out, life has to get better, I don't want to go to this company, Didi fingers may be able to open when it is, in case there is an age limit, I can't open it, do you want me to sit and eat nothing? Or follow a few old men downstairs to play chess? I went to the company to sign a contract, even if there is an age limit in the future, people will have to give me compensation if they don't let me do it, hehe, I'm shrewd, right?"

"That's it, I'll send someone over first, you sleep first, wait for me to get up tomorrow to talk to you, and I'll go to the company to report in the afternoon after chatting!"

Finally, I hung up the phone.

Lao Yang looked at Mr. Tang who was snoring beside him, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a somewhat self-deprecating smile: "I TM live twenty years longer than you, and I haven't thought through as well as your kid, yes, I have to leave some for my children and be kind to my wife." ”

"My wife is no worse than your wife, a flower in the village back then, and I have suffered for half my life with Lao Tzu, and I am reluctant to buy a new dress for the New Year...... My old face is panicking!"

The car started and headed all the way to Qinbei.

Turn on the radio......

[The World in the Rearview Mirror]

[Farewells farther and farther away]

【……】

[I went all the way to ......]

Zizizi......

"What the hell. Lao Yang changed the channel, and when he heard the sad female voice sound, he was finally satisfied, and he felt that it was quite in line with his current state of mind, and hummed along all the way: "Anyway, he is not uncomfortable, as long as he is free, he will not pay attention to my feelings Oh, retreat to the point where there is no way out, it is better to let go ......"
