Chapter 108: Buying a Motorcycle
Early the next morning, Zhang Taiping got up very early, and he didn't sleep until more than eleven o'clock last night, but it did not affect his spirit, and he still woke up at six o'clock the next day. First of all, it is necessary to practice martial arts every morning, and now the strength does not need to be practiced anymore, it is already perverted enough, mainly to practice some skills and cultivate spirit.
After exercising and having breakfast, there are still a lot of things to do today.
Today there are things that need to be done in other villages or towns. Wang Gui's mushroom delivery car left early, and he couldn't catch a ride, so he had some other thoughts in his heart, Zhang Taiping didn't ride a bicycle, but ran towards the village alone. Fan Ming didn't follow today, but walked around the mountains with Xing Rushui, or cleaned up the strawberry fields in the orchard, or went to the houses in the village to visit the doors, and thoroughly understood the local people. Zhang Taiping let go of his horsepower and ran with all his strength when there was no one, and when there were people, he slowed down and ran slowly.
When I arrived at the village of Fengyukou outside, I first walked towards the family that operated the cable TV in the village. Although the village is not small, but the location is not very convenient, cable TV pulled over the charging staff is a problem, so I selected a family agent in the village, charge a fee once a year, and then the people above just come to summarize it.
Zhang Taiping's small village can have cable TV thanks to Fengyukou Village, when the cable was pulled for Fengyukou Village, it was also pulled to the small village seven or eight miles away, otherwise the small village in the deep mountains will be idle and the egg hurts to pull it for you again.
I found someone who was a cigarette and asked for directions, but the adults in the family were not there, only an eleven or twelve-year-old child, who was told that his parents had gone to the town. Zhang Taiping had no choice but to give up. I took a three-wheeled motorcycle at the entrance of the village, and the cement road drove to Huanshan Road in a short time. Winter is obviously the off-season for the farmhouse, and when I was in the village just now, there were very few cars parked on either side, and then there were no more people in the river with many tourists in the summer on the three-wheeled motorcycle.
I got off the bus at the Huanshan intersection, paid the three yuan car, and then took the shuttle bus to the town.
When he arrived in town, he didn't go to the place where he pressed the phone first, but went to a shop that sold motorcycles. The boss is a man in his thirties, I don't know what his surname is, anyway, his appearance is a little shocking first, he has a shaved head and a long scar on his face. Seeing Zhang Taiping come in, he threw away the cigarette butt and greeted him with a smile. Although a smiling face looks more hideous than a calm face, it is a matter of attitude.
"This brother wants to see a motorcycle?" He saw that Zhang Taiping was also very imposing, the kind that could shock people at first sight, so he called brother.
Zhang Taiping listened to his accent as local, but he had never seen this person before, and he searched carefully in his mind but there was still none. Nodding his head in response.
The boss continued: "What brand of car does this brother want to see? ”
Zhang Taiping didn't know much about motorcycles, and he didn't know what kind of cars were of good quality, so he said: "The boss will introduce a few." ”
"Do you want to ride it yourself, brother, or do you buy it for someone else?"
"Well, to yourself."
The boss looked Zhang Taiping up and down and said, "Myself, with the figure of a brother, I have to choose those large displacements." Let's take a look at this Loncin first? ”
These two Loncin are relatively large among the cars, Zhang Taiping sat on it, the shock absorbing spring of the car creaked and pressed downward, and there was a tendency to lean to the bottom, the boss saw this and hurriedly said: "Brother go down first, it seems that this car is not good." ”
Zhang Taiping didn't really sit down to the end when he was in the car, he got up and shook his head when he heard the words, his height was close to two meters, which was a bit too tall, and he was not thin and tall, and the meat of this body was all strong muscles rather than false loose fat, so the weight of this body was really difficult to estimate.
"Let's see how these two are." This time, the boss was referring to the rider car of Wuyang Honda, which has the largest displacement and the largest frame in the store.
Zhang Taiping sat on it and tried it, this time this car is much better than the two just now, at least Zhang Taiping can afford to carry it after sitting down. But Zhang Taiping still sentenced the car to death, although it can afford to carry it when it is not started now, but it is also embarrassing, if it is started with the momentum and habitual surname, the wear and tear of the car will be too great, and the car will have to be scrapped in three days. This is still in the case that only Zhang Taiping rode alone and did not carry people, if Cai Yazhi was loaded again, it would be even more impossible to ride.
The bald boss also saw the problem, and said with some regret: "It seems that this one is not good either." ”
Zhang Taiping stepped down from the car and asked, "There is no longer a larger load?" ”
The boss sent Zhang Taiping a cigarette and said apologetically: "I don't have it in this store, I guess there won't be one in our town, the price of that kind of car won't be less, and it won't be sold here." ”
took a puff on the cigarette and said, Zhang Taiping said: "Then you have to go to the city to buy it?" ”
The boss also smoked a cigarette and said, "Yes, it is only possible to find a car suitable for your body in a large specialty store like the one in the city." It won't be sold anywhere else. Seeing the sky, the small shop disappointed the brothers. ”
Zhang Taiping said nothing, and left. Coming out of the motorcycle shop, I was a little disappointed not to be able to buy a motorcycle. In the future, I will often go in and out of the mountains, and other cars are not very suitable, only motorcycles are the best means of transportation, and I can still carry Cai Yazhi out for a walk, but now I can't buy one.
Zhang Taiping understood that ordinary people couldn't buy that kind of special car even if they had money, so he hesitated for a while, but still picked up the mobile phone he just bought yesterday and dialed a phone number.
"Hello? I'm Yang Ning, may I ask who you are? The voice on the other end of the line was a little murky, then moved to a quiet place.
"Zhang Taiping." Zhang Taiping just reported his name.
"Mr. Zhang Taiping, I haven't thanked you for saving me yesterday" Yang Ning's voice with a little surprise and surprise said a lot, Zhang Taiping just listened silently, and didn't express any opinions, and at the end of the day, she remembered that Zhang Taiping could call, there must be something and asked, "Is there anything wrong?" ”
Zhang Taiping said: "I want to buy a motorcycle, but the general is not suitable, you also know my body, only the kind of special capacity of the car can afford to carry, I want to ask you to help see if you can buy one." ”
After hearing this, Yang Ning immediately agreed: "This is a trivial matter, there is no problem, what brand of car do you want?" ”
"It doesn't matter if the brand is there, try to have a large load and displacement, and it will be better to be able to carry one person later."
Yang Ning thought about Zhang Taiping's burly and strong body, plus these required cars are really difficult for ordinary people to find, but it is not difficult for her, judging from the way things developed yesterday, she is not an ordinary person after all, and there will always be some very channels to buy a car for people like them, and it is really because of this that Zhang Taiping chose to let her help.
Noting down Zhang Taiping's big request, she said: "Okay, you can't get a car today, maybe the car won't be delivered until tomorrow, you name an address and I'll send the car to you at that time." ”
"I'd better go over and get it." Of course, Zhang Taiping was embarrassed to let the family send it over again.
"It's okay, you can tell me an address, I'll send it to you, just take a vacation to rest and rest, and go around the village." Relax and unwind. ”
Hua Dou said that this was the case, Zhang Taiping could only agree, and told her the address of Fengyukou Village.
After deciding this matter, Zhang Taiping bought a few boxes of good cigarettes and came to the business hall where the phone was installed. In fact, now due to the popularity of mobile phones, there are very few people who install phones, and now they don't need to spend money to install phones, so the employees in the business hall are not very happy to install phones, but they still greet each other with a smile under the face of Zhang Taiping with a few boxes of good cigarettes.
Zhang Taiping said that he wanted to take the broadband over, so he said it together. At that time, when the telephone line was pulled, a broadband interface was also pulled, which was on the telephone pole in front of the village chief's door.
After buying the things he needed, the most of them were network cables and telephone lines, and the village chief's house was still quite far away from his home, so he had to pay for these network cables. When he arrived at Fengyukou Village, Zhang Taiping went to the house where cable TV was installed again, and this time the people went home, and the men in the family went to install the cable TV with Zhang Taiping, and they were very enthusiastic, because they could get a commission for each installation house, and they had to collect cable TV fees from Zhang Taiping's house every year.
These wires only end at the door of the village chief's house, so when Zhang Taiping came to install, he found a few people to help pull a few wires down the wire to his house. After answering the line and trying to have no problem, Zhang Taiping gave an extra 100 yuan to the young man who installed the phone, and it can be seen that he has just graduated from school, maybe he is just an intern, and it is not easy to come all the way here.
After sending away the two people who installed it, Zhang Taiping did not let go of the few people who came to help, and called the family to help move the solar water heater and put it on the roof of the bathroom house built under the eaves of the back house. In the winter, everyone didn't work, and the villagers didn't come to help for money, and Zhang Taiping didn't drop the water to give people money, so it was a bit of a feeling that your family had a lot of money and pressed people with money, but let the three women in the family make a few dishes, buy two bottles of wine, and invite a few people to eat, and everyone was comfortable and happy.
In the second half of the day, Zhang Taiping removed all the wires at home, the previous wires were a little old, and the quality was not good, in the future, there were more electrical appliances at home and the power was high, and if the wires could not bear the load, they were prone to fire, and most of the houses built of wood still had fires, which was a disaster.
It wasn't until dinner time that everything was done. Not only is it safe to reassemble the wires, but the house is also much more beautiful, no longer like a spider pulling eggs, string by string.
