Chapter 105: Another Dip in the Mud
Chapter 105: Another deep mud foot
Qinghai Lake is full of green fields, waiting for the season of rape flowers everywhere, and the citizens of Xining City are also wearing summer clothes to welcome the summer summer that is not too harsh on the plateau. In the Muli Coal Mine, June is the beginning of the snow season, the day of the cold wind howling, in that kind of situation, the hardships of working and living can be imagined.
As before, the car arrived at the Muli Coal Mine, and since it started working, it has been in constant condition. The advantage of being in Muli is that there are many car repair shops, which can cure minor problems in your car at any time, as long as you pay more money than outside. The main and common problem encountered by their fleet in the Ruoqiang Coal Mine was that the excavator smashed the truck and welded the body every day. When I arrived at the Muli Coal Mine, I encountered an even more difficult problem of changing the tires every day, sometimes two or three a day. Regarding the matter of road repair, Li Hao and Yang Qianxun began to find Boss Yang and others to implement it. Boss Yang said: "I discussed with the other two contractors, but they were unwilling to build the road, even if they built the road, the car kept running every day, and the stones falling from the car would also puncture the tires." ”
"If you don't build the road, the road is so bumpy, and the cars are so full, there will definitely be a lot of dirt and stones falling on the road." Yang Qianxun said, "When we signed the contract, we also specifically proposed this article, which was written in the contract, and you can't sign the contract and not execute it." ”
Manager Fang said: "It's not that we don't want to execute the contract, it's that the other two contracted projects are on the same path as us, and they don't agree to build the road, and we can't build it by our own strength." ”
Boss Yang said: "Tomorrow, I will go to the mine to discuss and ask them to help find those two." ”
On the second day, the third day, and the fourth day, Li Hao went to Boss Yang every day to ask about the results of the negotiation on the prospecting, but there was no result.
On a snowy day, a dump truck crashed into another dump truck using the same road, and the front of the truck was badly damaged. In the past six months, because of accidents again and again, the car reported insurance compensation, there should be 30,000 yuan of insurance compensation, but the loss caused to them is 300,000 yuan or 400,000 yuan can not be made up, encountering this kind of thing, is the most helpless, can not blame the driver for carelessness, because he does not want to, can not blame others for carelessness, because others do not want to crash, anyway, you have insurance, just find the insurance company to compensate, no one wants to pay attention to the insurance company behind the compensation, the car stopped work caused by the mistake
Labor costs, drivers still need to pay wages and eat when they stop working, and the impact of car damage on the car as a whole and other invisible problems.
Yang Qianxun still applied for insurance and explained the situation to them, because they couldn't block the road, so they applied to take pictures in advance. The staff of Tianjun PICC Property Insurance agreed to Yang Qianxun's proposal, Yang Qianxun held the camera, Li Hao held the tow rope, and the two drove the pickup truck to the accident site, and forty minutes later, a dump truck towed the hit car to the repair shop for repair. After calculating the freight for a week, Yang Qianxun sadly found that all the money he earned in the mine was given to tire sellers and car repairers, and even the driver's salary was not left.
When Li Hao went to Yang Qianxun's room at night, Yang Qianxun told him this cruel reality. Li Hao said: "It's not okay to do it like this, I'll go to Lao Yang, if he doesn't solve the problem of the road, we won't do it." ”
Ten minutes later, he came back and said: "He said that a forklift will be arranged tomorrow to pick up stones on the road, and it is useless for others to look for him." ”
"But if we pay all this money for your tires on credit, there will be no money at all."
Li Hao said: "It should be paid or paid, people know that we have already got the freight, and they will not give us credit after not giving the money. ”
The situation was slightly better in the second week, with a surplus of more than 10,000 yuan, if you don't count the driver's salary. It's about to be the end of the month, and the drivers will be paid at the beginning of the month, Yang Qianxun looked at the money in his hand, very depressed, and discussed with Li Hao, "Isn't there still money in the account of the cultural communication company?" Shall I go back to Xining and take it out? ”
"How many?"
"I took out 10,000 yuan for two vehicle insurances, plus the compensation for so many vehicle accidents, there should be 70,000 or 80,000 yuan, right?" Yang Qianxun said, "I'll go back and get 50,000 yuan back and pay the driver's salary." ”
Li Hao thought for a while and said, "Why don't we go to Boss Yang and see if he can advance points for us?" ”
"Originally, the freight was settled once a week, and you still went to advance, how could it be?"
Li Hao said: "It's also Ha, then don't talk about advances, go borrow some." ”
"You're going to try?"
"Try it, just try it." Li Hao went out to find Boss Yang, and came back in less than three minutes, "Boss Yang is not here, he said that he was back in Xining." Forget it, stop a coal car to Tianjun tomorrow, you go to Tianjun and take the bus back, I don't dare to let you drive back by yourself, you foolishness, I don't worry. ”
Yang Qianxun began to pack his things and prepare to go back to Xining, Li Hao said again: "Forget it, the coal truck is too dirty, I will send you to Tianjun, send you to the car back to Xining and come back." ”
Speaking of this, Yang Qianxun suddenly remembered, "Why haven't I seen any of the nine barn trucks that pulled coal through our company since I came to the mine?" ”
Li Hao said: "Two of them drove home to raise them, and three of them couldn't pay off the car loans, so they drove back to Yuanda and returned them directly, and of course the people also went home." There should be four more, why haven't I seen them yet? ”
Yang Qianxun said worriedly: "I don't know what our ending will be?" In the past, I blamed those who raised the barn car, thinking that they would definitely be able to do a good job, but now we have not paid the car loan for three months, not because I don't want to pay, but on the second time
When I took out a car loan, I basically handed over all the money in my pocket, but now I can't afford to pay it! ”
"I don't know what to do!" Li Hao sighed, "If we really hand it back to them, it means that our previous down payment of one million, more than 300,000 deposits, and all the hard work of half a year will be in vain." ”
Yang Qianxun said: "This is our car, I just don't pay it, we work hard, if we don't get it, we can't pay it back, and then we will talk about it." ”
Li Hao walked up to her, patted her head and said with a smile: "I'm afraid that you won't be able to get by by when the time comes!" ”
The next day, on the way out of the Muli Coal Mine, he met Lao Liu's canglan car, Li Hao saw his car driving from a distance, and pressed the horn of the pickup truck, Lao Liu stuck his head out of the cab, saw Li Hao and the two, immediately stopped the car and said hello with a smile, and the two of them sat in their respective cars and chatted a few words.
Li Hao asked him: "Lao Liu, do you still want to open it yourself?" Didn't hire a driver? ”
"Hire one, and the two of us take turns."
"Okay, right?"
"No, I can't make money, I keep repairing cars." Lao Liu said distressedly.
"What about the cars we have together? Why didn't you see it? ”
"There are still two in the wood, and the rest have gone home, some have gone elsewhere to work, and three have been handed over directly to Yuanda Company to stop working."
"Did you give Uncle He the 10,000 yuan on time every month? Can it be earned? Li Hao asked him with concern.
"I have already given Lao He's money, and now I have to repay the loan every month, repay the loan, and pay the driver's salary, and there is not much left."
The car behind pressed the horn to urge Lao Liu's car, and Lao Liu hurriedly said: "Mr. Li, I won't talk to you anymore, let's talk about it later." With that, he retracted his head back into the cab and drove forward. Liu Hao also drove the pickup truck and continued to walk. The car walked forward, on both sides of the road, there was a large area of grass, Yang Qianxun looked around, there were no herdsmen, the grass had returned to green, was growing vigorously, suddenly saw a small gray animal in the grass jumped up, and slowly crawled, Yang Qianxun shouted: "Stop, stop." ”
Li Hao, who was driving the car, somehow, immediately braked sharply and stopped on the side of the road. Yang Qianxun opened the car door, jumped out of the car, walked into the grass gently, walked towards the little animal, getting closer and closer, the little animal didn't seem to be afraid of her at all, its mouth moved, as if it was eating something, two round mung beans looked at her, Yang Qianxun squatted beside it and looked at it for a few seconds, seeing that it did not react, she stretched out her hand, wanted to grab it, and brought it to the car, but her hand had not touched its fur, and the little thing had already swished out of sight, Yang Qianxun stood up regretfully and returned to the car unhappily. Li Hao smiled and said to her: "You are a child who has not grown up yet, what is new about these things, besides, you think you can catch them?" ”
The car continued to move forward, turning a cliff, the grassland on the right was forty or fifty meters below the road, the shepherd waved his whip below, driving the sheep, close to a small stream on the side of the road, the water flowed slowly along the direction of the road, a few sheep ran to the stream to drink, Li Hao said, "This small river is a tributary connected to Qinghai Lake, the further forward it becomes, the wider it is, called the Buha River." ”
Yang Qianxun sighed and said, "Look at how beautiful the scenery here is, I didn't pay attention when I came in that day." ”
"It's not that I didn't pay attention, but I wasn't in the mood to pay attention." Li Hao said with a smile.
At noon, when they arrived at Tianjun County, the two ordered two Sichuan dishes in a small Sichuan restaurant and had a good meal. As soon as I arrived at the gate of the bus station, I saw several taxis parked on the side of the road, and a person walked over and asked Yang Qianxun: "Do you want to go to Xining, taxi carpooling, enough for four people to go." ”
"How much?"
"One hundred dollars."
Li Hao said: "It's okay, or just take a taxi back." Then he asked the driver who solicited business: "Can you send people home?" ”
"Where do you stay?"
"Qingsong Huafu, Jinshan Road, Dongcheng District."
"You can send it, come on," the driver said.
Yang Qianxun was a little apprehensive, she felt that it was better to take the bus, it was safe when there were more people, this kind of taxi, I don't know who was sitting with her, and it would be troublesome if she ran into a bad person, so I didn't want to go.
The driver walked a few steps, looked back and saw that Yang Qianxun didn't come, and turned back to call her: "Sister, let's go, it's okay, we are all carrying people from Xining, running every day, it must be safe." ”
Yang Qianxun asked Li Hao for his meaning, and Li Hao said: "You go up, it's okay, I'll take a picture of his car number, call me when you arrive in Xining, this car is much faster, it will arrive before dark." ”
Yang Qianxun said: "Okay, I'll take this car, don't you want to buy accessories?" Just go buy it, leave me alone, I'm in the car. ”
Li Hao said: "Okay, I'll go, otherwise it will be dark again when I rush back to the mine." ”
Yang Qianxun watched Li Hao's car drive away, then sat in the passenger seat of the taxi, waited for other rental people to get into the car, sat in the car and read the mobile phone novel, waited for more than half an hour, and finally gathered four people, and the car drove to Xining.
