Chapter 50: How about a career change
When Lin Yang rode back to Uncle Zhou's car repair shop, he remembered that his mobile phone had fallen to Zhuang Yan.
In this way, he had to borrow Uncle Zhou's mobile phone and call the courier company. Fortunately, Su Ning helped him ask for leave in the morning, and Bucket Chen was not here today, but no one investigated where he went.
Hanging up the phone, Lin Yang immediately turned his gaze back to Uncle Zhou. Obviously, he was most concerned about Xiao Ling's situation.
When Uncle Zhou saw Lin Yang's gaze, he shook his head and replied, "Ah Yang, your previous car is no longer worth repairing." Both its chassis and the internal components were badly damaged. If you insist on fixing it, you might as well rebuild a motorcycle. ”
"Uncle Zhou, help me! You help me fix it, and I can give you as much money as you want. When Lin Yang heard this, he took Uncle Zhou's hand and said hurriedly. Looking at his nervous expression, it was as if he was looking for Uncle Zhou to repair it not like a car, but to treat a terminally ill person.
Seeing Lin Yang's anxious appearance, Uncle Zhou could only shake his head helplessly, "Ah Yang, it's not a matter of money. Your motorcycle is too old. If it's just a minor problem, I can still help you. But now its engine, carburetor, oil circuits, and circuits are all damaged. You say, where am I going to find these old parts? ”
When Lin Yang heard this, his arm slipped weakly from Uncle Zhou's body. Immediately, his face changed to a pained expression. He understood what Uncle Zhou meant. Now Uncle Zhou just wants to help him, and he can't find accessories. Did he really want to watch Xiao Ling die like this?
Thinking of this, Lin Yang looked back at Xiao Ling's body. At this time, his face was full of pathos. He really didn't want Xiao Ling to leave his life, but now it has become an unavoidable thing.
When Uncle Zhou saw Lin Yang's sad appearance, he whispered on the side, "Ah Yang, if you really like this car, then I will help you repair its shell again." That way, even if you can't ride it around, you can leave it at home and watch it. ”
When Lin Yang heard this, he could only nod helplessly. After that, his body collapsed on a chair next to him.
Uncle Zhou saw Lin Yang nodding, so he waved at his men. The guys saw him in action and brought the EFI tools over. Apparently they were going to fix Xiao Ling a little and then repaint it so that it looked like a new car.
Lin Yang watched the guys busy working beside Xiao Ling. His mood now is as if someone has died in his family, and he stands in the funeral parlor and watches the undertaker work for his deceased relatives.
After watching it for a short time, tears hung on Lin Yang's face.
Although the boy does not flick when he has tears, it is not the time to be sad. When he saw that Uncle Zhou arranged for his men to prepare to install the headlights that Xiao Ling had used before back into the car, he hurriedly pleaded, "Uncle Zhou, install this light on the new car." Just when I think about it, it can be regarded as being by my side every day. ”
When Uncle Zhou heard Lin Yang say this, he originally wanted to refute it. But when he saw the painful expression on Lin Yang's face, he had no choice but to nod vigorously. The guy on the side saw him nodding, but leaned over and whispered, "Uncle, is this appropriate?" This light doesn't match this car? ”
"Suitable! Ah Yang asked you to put it on, and you put it on for me. ”
Uncle Zhou heard this and replied without hesitation. As an old man over half a hundred years old, he can certainly understand Lin Yang's current mood. He even felt that Lin Yang should not be a courier, but a competitive motorcyclist. In his opinion, only a competitive driver can have such feelings for his car.
The guy listened to Uncle Zhou's words, so he had to take the headlights and tentatively put it on Lin Yang's new motorcycle. Although this is a very difficult thing, since Uncle Zhou has commanded it, then he should do it.
With the efforts of Uncle Zhou and the guys, when the sun was in the west, they finally repaired Lin Yang's two cars.
Lin Yang saw that the two cars in front of him had been repaired, and took out his wallet.
Uncle Zhou saw Lin Yang doing this, but he pressed his hand to his wallet and said earnestly, "Ah Yang, I don't want your money." Even if I thank the old customer for this repair, I will give it to you for free. ”
"Uncle Zhou, how can you do this? I've kept you busy for so long for my car, and I should have paid for you. Lin Yang listened to Uncle Zhou's words, but insisted on giving money. He knew that although Uncle Zhou was a car repair shop, he was not a big deal. Besides, even if Uncle Zhou is a big money, he can't let his family work in vain for so long.
Uncle Zhou listened to Lin Yang's words, and still waved his hand and said, "No need! You come and go in the wind and rain, and it's not easy to be busy every day. Besides, your old car was thrown away, and I bought the lights back from the scrapyard. In any case, if you take this to the police, my shop and Lao Zhuang's buying station will suffer. ”
When Lin Yang heard this, he had no choice but to nod helplessly.
He understood the meaning of Uncle Zhou's words. If he told the police about this, the police station would definitely fine Uncle Zhou and Lao Zhuang in the name of collecting and selling the stolen goods. At that point, it's not as simple as fixing his car.
Uncle Zhou saw Lin Yang nodding, patted him on the shoulder again and said, "Good young man, Uncle Zhou really didn't misunderstand you." I really didn't expect you to be such a friendly person that you could ...... on a motorcycle Alas! It's touching. ”
Uncle Zhou raised his head as he spoke. If it weren't for that, I'm afraid his tears would flow out of his eyes.
Lin Yang saw Uncle Zhou's emotional appearance, and hurriedly took his hand and said, "Uncle Zhou, you praise me too much." I can do such a thing, not because I have been with this car for a long time and have a relationship. It's the fact that you can help me fix it, and that's what touches me. ”
When Uncle Zhou heard this, he waved his hand again. After his mood stabilized, he tentatively said, "Ah Yang, have you ever thought about changing careers?" It's a shame for someone like you to be a courier. You haven't thought about doing anything else? ”
"Something else?" Lin Yang listened to Uncle Zhou's words, and could only smile helplessly. After that, he said self-deprecatingly, "Uncle Zhou, let me open a store, I don't have the capital; Let me work, I have no craft; You let me steal and rob it, I don't have the guts. Therefore, I am suitable for riding a motorcycle, receiving mail, delivering deliveries and so on. ”
When Uncle Zhou heard Lin Yang say this, he said step by step, "Young man, your thinking is not right. Didn't you want to be a competitive motorcyclist? ”
"Competitive motorcyclist?" When Lin Yang heard this, his face was full of hesitation.
To be honest, he really didn't want to be in that industry. However, he understands that the job of a competitive motorcyclist is very similar to his. All they have to do is ride their bikes. It's just that where does he have the money, where does he have the way to do that kind of work?
When Uncle Zhou saw the expression on Lin Yang's face, he guessed what was on his mind. In this way, he patted Lin Yang on the shoulder and said, "Ah Yang, I have been observing you for a long time. I see you as a person with a lot of potential. As long as you are willing to be a competitive motorcyclist, I am willing to help you find your way. What do you think? ”
Speaking of this, Uncle Zhou stopped talking and looked at Lin Yang's face with earnest eyes.
When Lin Yang heard this, he said that it was fake. For anyone who loves to ride a motorcycle, it is their dream to become a professional competitive motorcyclist. But this dream is very difficult to realize, which requires not only innate potential, but also financial support.
Seeing that Lin Yang didn't answer, Uncle Zhou slapped his hand on his shoulder again, "Ah Yang, go back and think about it." Uncle Zhou was also a professional driver when he was young, but it's a pity that he ...... Alas! Don't talk about the past. ”
Lin Yang heard Uncle Zhou say this, and looked at his face.
Although he didn't know Uncle Zhou's experience, from his flickering eyes, he could see that he was full of yearning and painful memories of that life......
Coming out of Uncle Zhou's car repair shop, Lin Yang did not rush home, but first went to the nearby communication business hall to reissue a new card. As for the phone, he didn't buy it. In this day and age, who doesn't have an old spare phone? In particular, he had a girlfriend before. In this day and age, women change their phones faster than they change their boyfriends.
After refilling the mobile phone card, Lin Yang rode back to his home.
When he parked the car, he unloaded Xiao Ling from the back of the car. Although Xiao Ling has become brand new after EFI, its operating mechanism is all broken, and no one can repair it anymore.
Lin Yang parked Xiao Ling in front of him and looked at it for a long time. It wasn't until the lights were on that he got up and prepared to move it under the carport. Just as he was moving Xiao Ling, he heard a rattling sound in its fuel tank. Hearing this, he felt that something like a stone had fallen into Xiao Ling's fuel tank.
If it were someone else, he might not care about it, after all, Xiao Ling has become a model without any use value. Even if it was a car demon, it was only a skeleton left now.
But Lin Yang didn't think so in his heart. In his eyes, Xiao Ling is really as important as his girlfriend.
Now that he has completely lost Sun Ru, he doesn't want Xiao Ling to have any more sundries in his body. Thinking so, he opened Xiao Ling's fuel tank cap and carefully laid it flat on the ground. After that, he lifted Xiao Ling's car body and shook it tentatively.
As the shaking progressed, a pebble-like oval stone fell out of Xiao Ling's fuel tank.
When Lin Yang picked up the stone and looked at it, he found that it was covered with oil. Seeing this, he couldn't help but think, maybe this stone has been in Xiao Ling's body for a long time, right? With that in mind, he walked over to the side of the motorcycle and threw the stone into the tank. Then he went back to his room to wash his hands.
