When I was twenty-six years old, I had been a bus driver for four years, and my Longhua Express company was not very strong, with the development of science and technology, the opening of fast lanes, this veteran Yuntong company finally could not withstand the competition of a number of operating companies, and ended up with a dissolution.

I'm unemployed.

In the past, the buses I drove were all old-fashioned air brakes, but other Yuntong companies have long eliminated this kind of vehicles, and adopted more advanced natural gas and even electric powered buses.

I found several express companies in a row, and I was very satisfied with the initial application, but after a test drive, the leaders shook their heads, driving the bus is not acrobatics, this is to be responsible for the safety of passengers.

For three days in a row, I wandered on the streets, powerless frustration swept through my body, twenty-six years old, it is the age of a man who works hard, it is the age of trying to earn his wife, others are in their prime, but I haven't even found a girlfriend.

I crouched down on the street, unscrewed the cap of the mineral water bottle, looked up and drank the last sip, and out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of the small advertisement posted on the station sign.

When I used to drive the bus, I often saw people pasting small advertisements on the stop signs, which is nothing more than that patients with venereal diseases don't have to worry, xx products solve your worries. Either it's a variety of certificates, and there's also pasting some bags for Miss Bao.

What really caught my eye was a plain A4 piece of paper with this job posting written on it.

Recruit:

Dongfeng Yuntong Company (pseudonym) is now recruiting a driver, requiring age 25 years old or above, able to drive the Blue Star Bus proficiently, with generous treatment, address house shop passenger terminal, contact person Chen Wei, mobile phone number 186....

And the Blue Star bus mentioned in this recruitment notice is the old-fashioned bus that I am proficient in!

It's rare that there are now Yuntong companies recruiting such drivers, isn't this just a mountain and a poor water, and another village? I rushed to the house shop with the attitude of giving it a try.

The house shop is on the outskirts of the city, far from the city, and it took more than an hour to get there by bus. At the passenger terminal, I found Chen Wei, who looked to be in his early thirties.

He was sitting in the office picking his feet, and when he saw me come in, he immediately put his feet down, put on leather shoes and came over to shake hands with me cordially, I was disgusted, but still symbolically shook hands with him.

After sitting down, Chen Wei smiled and said: What's your name? Will you drive the Blue Star bus?

I nodded and smiled: My name is Liu Mingbu, and I have been driving Blue Star for four years.

"Oh, four years of driving experience, not bad, what about us, lack of a night shift, the last train of No. 14, departing at twelve o'clock every night, from the house shop to the coking plant, and then back at two o'clock, including food and accommodation, a monthly salary of six thousand, I feel like I don't win?"

What Chen Wei said made me stunned on the spot.

I've been driving a bus for four years, and I've never seen such treatment, only one bus a day, and a monthly salary of 6,000, including food and accommodation?

Seeing the surprise on my face, Chen Wei moved his body, sat closer to me, patted me on the shoulder and said: There are benefits from time to time, do you feel like it?

I feel that this is simply a joy from the sky, and I was about to nod my head in agreement, but Chen Wei whispered again: But there is one thing you have to pay attention to.

I nodded: Yes, you say.

"You have to be on time, you have to leave at 12 p.m.! After driving to the coking plant, stay for five minutes at most, and then return, on the way back, you are not allowed to pick up passengers halfway, even if it is a person who is dying, you can't let him get on the bus, you must stop at the station! Do you understand? ”

I feel that this is very reasonable, the bus can only stop at the station, but there are not so many rules outside the suburbs, many times it is waving and stopping, waving down, which makes me feel that Dongfeng Yuntong's style is very correct.

But at the same time it feels reasonable, I also feel that Chen Wei's words are a bit excessive, if I really have a car accident, I have to stop the car and call 120, right?

Seeing that Chen Wei's face was very resolute, I still nodded and said: Everything is subject to the arrangement.

Chen Wei smiled again: If you have a problem, you can start working tonight, right?

I wondered: don't you need to take a test drive?

"No, no, I can trust you! Let's go to work tonight, don't you? "Chen Wei looks heroic, but I always feel wrong, this application process is weird, only one car a day, the salary is so high, I don't have to test drive when I apply, this...

After a long time, I still nodded: Well, wood problem, I can go to work tonight!

I got a set of dark blue driver's uniforms in the office, I went home first, where I lived is not far from here, and the rented house is cheap, after packing up my things, I took my clothes and bedding to the house shop bus terminal.

At 11:50 in the evening, Chen Wei went to the dormitory to find me, handed me a cigarette and said with a smile: Xiao Liu, smoke a cigarette first, and we will spray it.

I looked at my phone and said, "Brother Chen, it's fifty minutes, I'll go and prepare first, it's time to leave in a while."

Who knew that Chen Wei smiled and said: Mu Shi, brother will say a few words to you, you remember. First, you can't park until you get to the site, you know?

I nodded.

Second, when you arrive at the terminal of the coking plant, you can rest for five minutes, but don't exceed ten minutes, don't exceed, understand?

I nodded again.

Third, you are not allowed to smoke in the car, let alone carry lighters and flammable and explosive materials, understand?

I still nodded, I feel that these things are quite reasonable, the first is the professional norms, the second is not to be lazy, and the third is the code of conduct that bus drivers must abide by.

The time was almost up, so I trotted all the way and got on the Blue Star No. 14 bus, starting from the house shop terminal.

To tell the truth, this No. 14 bus, more broken than I used to drive, when I started the sound of the chassis shaking can be clearly heard, although the driver's seat is very soft, but uneven, it feels like there is a pair of hands under the driver's seat to support my buttocks, encountered bumpy roads, always bumpy egg pain.

I can't understand why Dongfeng Express is a company with strong assets, so why does it still keep this kind of bus?

Drive out of the terminus, the road at night is very dark, and the house shop here is too far away from the city, too partial, there is no street light on the road, the light of the headlights is still very weak, and it is very uncomfortable to drive.

Since it was twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, there was almost no one at each station, and I drove five or six stations in one go, and only then did a young man come up at the station of the picking garden, and when he saw me, he was surprised at the first sight: Yo, the master has changed.

I nodded and smiled and said, "yes, I just got to work today."

There was no one in the car, and the young man was also very talkative, handed me a cigarette and said with a smile: Come, master, you smoke first.

I shook my head and smiled, "No, smoking is not allowed in the car."

"It's a wooden thing, what can you do if you smoke a cigarette, smoke." The young man was very enthusiastic, but I insisted on not smoking, and just put the cigarette in my ear.

I drove a few more stops forward, and at this station in Charm City, a little girl came up, looking very lonely, and I kindly reminded: Little girl, please put coins on the bus.

The little girl looked up at me and asked me in a low voice, "Uncle, if I don't have money, will you let me ride in the car?"

I was stunned for a moment, and smiled dumbly: Of course.

I took out a coin from my pocket, slammed it into the automatic coin box, and smiled at the little girl, "This time it's my uncle's invitation."

The little girl didn't smile at me, but walked to the back of the bus with an indifferent expression.

The road is also very smooth, much cooler than I used to drive the bus, the advantage of driving the last train at midnight is that there is no traffic jam, no waste of time, almost one breath to the coking plant terminal.

The passengers got out of the car, I sat in the driver's seat and rested for a while, looking at the time on the phone, it was already 1:50, from the house shop to the coking plant, this road is really not short, and it is still in the suburbs, the road is difficult to walk.

After a pause of about three minutes, I restarted the train and rushed to the house shop.

The return journey is even simpler, there are almost no people at the station, and there are so many passengers along the way, and the first day of work is very smooth.

When I went back to my own single dormitory, when I washed my feet, I remembered the cigarette I had in my ear, so I took it off my ear, lit it, and just took a puff, and suddenly I felt very hot in my throat, like smoking a cigar.

Damn, what brand of cigarette is this? So rushed?

I pinched the cigarette holder and glanced at it in the light, and just one glance, my frightened hands trembled, and I almost gave away the cigarette!

Crystal Palace cigarettes.

This brand of cigarettes was produced by Shanxi Quwo Cigarette Factory, and it was discontinued more than ten years ago!
