31. Go home and farm
A week's time has passed in a blink of an eye, and this week Cao Erniu has thought that the C63 has been run in almost perfectly, although it cannot reach the level of integration of people and vehicles as the old man said, but it is estimated that it is not far away. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
According to the old man's own set of concepts, the driver's ability can be roughly divided into four realms: the realm of controlling the car, the realm of driving the car, the realm of entering the soul and finally the realm of integrating man and car.
The so-called car control is nothing more than the degree of easy driving control after having enough understanding of the vehicle. Driving a car, on the other hand, is a more in-depth study of the vehicle on the basis of car control, coupled with 10,000+ hours of continuous practice, so that the body forms an inherent conditioned reflex.
The understanding of the soul realm is slightly obscure, and this realm is divided into two small realms, one is soul seeking, and the other is soul melting.
Because according to the old man, every car has its own soul, referred to as the soul of the car.
What the driver has to do is to find the unique soul of the car through its cold appearance, so as to carry out in-depth communication, so that his soul can be completely integrated with it, so as to achieve the ultimate unity of man and car.
This may seem like a ridiculous theory, after all, how can a car made of steel and plastic have a soul? Cao Erniu used to think so, but it wasn't until he finally stepped into the realm of driving cars that he knew that he was completely wrong.
Originally...... The car really has a soul, and it is not found, just because the realm is not enough.
So as far as the current realm of Cao Erniu's soul melting realm is concerned, after a week of continuous running-in, he finally completely fused with this C63's soul, which feels very good, as if every cold accessory on the car is an extension of his flesh and blood.
The night before the race, Cao Erniu finally drove the C63 into the parking lot, because he needed a good rest to relieve the nerves he had been tense for days.
After practicing in the racing track all day, Cao Erniu, who was sweating all day, returned to the dormitory to take a shower, and was about to go to the company canteen to eat, but received a phone call on the way, an unfamiliar number, and after hesitating for a while, he still picked it up.
What is very surprising is that the call was made by Cai Xiaochuan, Huo Wuji's number one henchman used honorifics, saying that he had something to discuss with him, Cao Erniu thought it was an official matter of Huarong Mountain, so he readily agreed.
According to Cai Xiaochuan's proposal, the two agreed to meet in a high-grade Western restaurant on the Bund, Cao Erniu wanted to refuse, saying that there was no need to be so wasteful, but later Cai Xiaochuan said that he would pay for it, and the calf had no excuse.
After Cao Erniu drove here, Cai Xiaochuan obviously waited for a long time, because a small pot of golden chrysanthemum tea on the dining table had bottomed out slightly.
"Mr. Cao, please be seated." Seeing Cao Erniu slowly walking over under the guidance of the beautiful waiter, Cai Xiaochuan got up and pulled out the cowhide seat opposite him and said with a smile.
Cao Erniu's calf is definitely the type that eats soft and does not eat hard, originally walked into this exquisite Western restaurant, his feet wearing pull-back shoes were a little disobedient, and now seeing that people are so polite, after saying a few hellos, he signaled that he was not polite.
"Two gentlemen, do you need to order food now?" The waitress with a delicate face and a neat ponytail bowed slightly, smiling and asking the two.
"Hmm", Cai Xiaochuan nodded, and made a gesture to the waiter, "Mr. Cao, please." ”
The waitress who figured out who the protagonist was, hurriedly handed a delicate menu with a purple cover to Cao Erniu, probably to improve the level of the restaurant, the menu here is in English, this calf can understand it is strange, after picking it up and flipping through two pages at random, he ordered two random according to the picture, "This, and this, just these two." ”
The waiter looked at him in surprise and didn't speak, then handed the menu to Cai Xiaochuan, who was sitting opposite, and asked, "Sir, what about you?" ”
Cai Xiaochuan waved his hand, signaling no, obviously a frequent visitor here, and said: "The first dish wants a red caviar, the soup is American-style clam soup, the side dish is Hokkaido small abalone with tartare sauce, the main dish is filet mignon seven ripe, and then a fruit salad, and the dessert is a small piece of mousse cake." ”
Speaking of this, Cai Xiaochuan paused, looked at Cao Erniu, who had a somewhat strange expression, and asked politely: "Mr. Cao, what kind of wine?" ”
"Forget the wine, I'll have to drive later."
Cao Erniu shook his head, signaling no, Cai Xiaochuan didn't force it, and said to the waiter: "Then it's good to bring this gentleman a latte, help me open a bottle of YellowTall, thank you." ”
"You're welcome, please wait."
The waitress showed a sweet smile and turned to leave, and a guy who had been holding back a sentence for a long time looked at Cai Xiaochuan and asked incomprehensibly: "Mr. Cai, you ordered so many things, can you eat them alone?" ”
"Many?" Cai Xiaochuan smiled dumbly, then remembered Cao Erniu's background, and suddenly regretted letting him order, and blamed himself for not paying attention just now, God knows what he ordered.
The food here was served quickly, the two chatted a few words about trivial matters, and after a while, a male waiter pushed the food cart to deliver the dishes.
"That's what I ordered?" Cao Erniu's eyes widened in surprise, looking at the two delicate large porcelain plates placed in front of the table by the waiter, he almost didn't jump up and smash the table, he had never seen such a blatant one!
I obviously ordered a large plate of egg fried rice, but in the middle of this large plate with a diameter of 30CM, what is the rice grain that only occupies a small gap? Can this damn take a bite by herself? Completely different from the picture, it's a fraud!
"Mr. Cao, stop your anger." If Cai Xiaochuan hadn't hurriedly pulled Cao Erniu back, the calf would have made a joke, and finally simply helped him order a few more things.
Cao Erniu, who was a little depressed, ate without a bite, and secretly said that the shop was a big bully, and suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here today, looked up at Cai Xiaochuan, and said, "Mr. Cai, is there something going on in Huarong Mountain?" ”
Cai Xiaochuan shook his head, "No, I want to ask Mr. Cao for some private matters." ”
"Huh?" Cao Erniu was slightly stunned, because he really couldn't think of anything that he could do to make the person in front of him please. To be honest, he had a good impression of Cai Xiaochuan, this person was dignified, knowledgeable, and easy to have a good impression, so after thinking about it, he said: "Mr. Cai said bluntly, it doesn't matter, if I can do it, I will definitely not refuse." ”
"Good! I know that Mr. Cao is a cheerful person, so I won't beat around the bush. Cai Xiaochuan nodded with a smile, took a sip of Cao Erniu's red wine, which was destined to not be able to read his name, and asked, "The competition is going to be tomorrow, I don't know how sure Mr. Cao is?" ”
Cao Erniu, who had guessed something, shook his head and said honestly: "It's hard to say this now, I won't know until after I compare it." ”
"Mr. Cao, I might as well get to the bottom of it with you, you have been training at the Jintian Circuit for the past few days, and Wujian is also not idle, judging from the data of the past two days, almost every time you can run into 5 minutes, which is much faster than the 5 minutes and 56 seconds you ran last time."
"Uh, really?" Cao Erniu asked vaguely while dealing with the things on the table, and he didn't seem surprised, and there was no pressure in his expression.
And this very small detail happened to be seen by Cai Xiaochuan, and after he looked at Cao Erniu deeply, he continued: "Mr. Cao, in my opinion, this game is actually no longer suspenseful, and there is really no need to be too serious. ”
Cao Erniu was not stupid, and finally put down the steel fork in his hand, and said with some doubts: "You don't want me to quit the game, do you?" ”
"Eh, no, no, don't misunderstand Mr. Cao, the game must still be played, and now that the news has been released, I don't dare to do this kind of thing that damages Mr. Cao's reputation." Cai Xiaochuan waved his hand again and again, for fear that he would misunderstand.
Hearing him say this, Cao Erniu was even more puzzled and asked, "Then what do you mean?" ”
Now that the words have been discussed, Cai Xiaochuan didn't bother to continue to be vague, "I mean, since Mr. Cao knows that the chances of winning are slim, why should he take it too seriously?" After all, the mountain race is too dangerous, so it's better to ...... Rest assured, you won't be left busy. ”
Speaking of this, Cai Xiaochuan bent down slightly, and picked up a black canvas bag from under the table that Cao Erniu had noticed a long time ago, "Mr. Cao, there are 200,000 cash here, so it is worth the hard work." ”
After a long time, Cao Erniu finally understood what this guy meant, and after looking at the black bag that was pushed in front of him by Cai Xiaochuan, he frowned, and didn't reply for a while, before he turned his head and looked at Cai Xiaochuan, who was still smiling, and said, "This is what Huo Wujian meant?" ”
Cai Xiaochuan shook his head, "No, it's my own intention, it has nothing to do with no illness, and whether this matter is successful or not, I hope that Mr. Cao can keep it secret for me." ”
Cao Erniu squinted his eyes and looked at him, although Cai Xiaochuan denied it, but Cao Erniu didn't believe it, he knew that the guy in front of him was just Huo Wuji's subordinate, in short, it was the type that needed to pay wages, with this kind of relationship between the boss and the employee, would he pay for Huo Wujian to solve his problems?
Cao Erniu wouldn't believe this kind of thing anyway, so the little respect he had for Huo Wujian in his heart all came to naught at this moment, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cai, I can't promise you." Believe it or not, I didn't go to Huarong Mountain for money at all, and besides, I'm not short of money now. ”
Cao Erniu didn't lie in this sentence, it was his dream to reach the top of the Huarong list, even if it was only for one day. As for the money, he just saved 1 million in his salary card, which is enough to solve all the current life problems, so he really is not short of money.
Moreover, even if he wants to agree, how can Zhao Yi explain it? There has to be a preconceived notion about everything, right? Although no one thinks that he has a lot of money, Cao Erniu admits that he does not have the ability to play with two people who can't afford to offend.
"Mr. Cao doesn't have to reply so quickly, it doesn't hurt to think about it first." Cao Erniu's refusal was obviously unexpected by Cai Xiaochuan, in his opinion, it was impossible for this small farmer who came out of the mountains to refuse such a large sum of money. After all, this time he was challenged by others, and his challenge money was only 20,000 yuan, which was 10 times different from 200,000 yuan.
"I'm sorry Mr. Cai, I have thought about this matter very clearly, and I will not change my mind."
A meal became tasteless, and it was not interesting to stay any longer, Cao Erniu finished speaking, got up and left, but just after taking two steps, a cold voice came from behind.
"Cao Hongjin, you have to think clearly, Huo Shao is not someone you can offend, don't mistake your life for the sake of impulsiveness."
"You're threatening me?" Cai Xiaochuan's words undoubtedly convinced Cao Erniu that tonight's arrangement was made by Huo Wuji, and this despicable method aroused his anger very well.
"Tell Huo Wuji, if you have the ability, outrun me, don't talk about these useless things, what if he Huo Dashao has power in Mingzhu? I, Cao Erniu, am a small farmer, so it's a big deal to go home and farm. ”
