A.D. 2008.

This year's summer was unusually hot, with a high temperature of 38°C for several days, and the asphalt road was like the bottom of a pot that had been steamed dry by a fire, giving off a foul smell of asphalt.

A few days ago, Sun Qixiang said to his son, anyway, if you are idle during the summer vacation, you will find an internship job, help others do web design in the Propaganda Department of a state-owned enterprise, and the salary of 1000 a month is not low.

Sun Yan majored in animation in college, and he has been exposed to all kinds of computer software, and his grades are not bad.

The day before yesterday, at the request of my father, I reluctantly handed over a resume, and today I asked him to go to work.

Sun Yan slept until 9 o'clock, and when he got up, he found that his first working day today was very unfortunate, still with a high temperature of 38 degrees, and he would be dried all over his body during the 20-minute walk from home to the station.

The asphalt road under his feet melted a little, and the soles of Sun Yan's shoes made a slight sound of gluing when they touched the ground. It's been less than ten minutes away, but it feels like an hour has passed. He suddenly remembered that Uncle Qiyuan had told him about the Western Desert, the scorching sun, the violent wind and sand, the steaming heat, and the high temperature on the ground as high as 71 degrees at noon.

Sun Yan stopped, and finally made up his mind to go home. The heart said: It doesn't matter what internship it is, what salary it is, I haven't been in good time for two days just after the summer vacation, and the stinky old man gave me such an unreliable thing.

He looked up at the poisonous sun above his head, turned around, but saw that the road back was still long and hot, and suddenly thought of a cool place, so he turned around and turned into the path next to him.

Inside the Xu Liang repair factory.

Sun Yan pushed a Zongshen motorcycle from the pile, stopped in the shade, squatted down to check it, and asked Xiao Liang next to him, "What is the fault of this car?" ”

The car repair Xiaoliang was washing the car, looked up and glanced over here, and said, "It seems that the clutch has slipped." ”

Sun Yan sat in the car, stepped on the starting lever with his right foot, stepped on the crutch with his right foot, and simply stepped down a few times, the car started up, the engine started loudly, and a puff of blue smoke came out from the engine, Sun Yan hung up the low gear, slowly let go of the clutch and slowly increased the throttle, tried several times before stopping, and said: "It seems that not only the clutch is slipping, but the car is burning oil." ”

Xiao Liang said: "You help him change the clutch first, the owner didn't say to change the cylinder, and ask him when he comes at night." ”

Sun Yan got out of the car, walked back to the garage, took the tools and came out, and saw the old man who repaired the car sitting cross-legged in front of the motorcycle, poking a cigarette and squinting at him.

"Are you idle today?" Sun Yan asked.

Lao Zhangtou didn't reply to him, just smashed his mouth and poked the cigarette, Sun Yan walked straight to him, squatted down to repair the car, and after a while, Lao Zhangtou laughed twice behind him, and said: "Stinky boy, your skills are getting more and more exquisite." ”

"What is this called superb? It's a lot worse than you. ”

"Humph! The tone is not small, and you still want to compare with me? Lao Zhangtou sneered, laughed twice, and asked, "I heard that your father found you an intern job?" ”

Sun Yan nodded and responded, "On the first day of work today, I didn't go." ”

When Lao Zhangtou heard this, he immediately stretched out his leg and kicked him from behind, scolding: "Fuck! You don't go to work well, what are you going to do here! ”

"It's boring, it's annoying to think about. It's cool, it's not far away, it's good. Sun Yan said with a smile.

"The director of the house is looking for you a job in the office, with air conditioning, who doesn't want to stay there all day!" Trabecular Road.

"What's wrong with the air conditioner, it's boring! There's nothing like the natural wind here! Sun Yan said.

Lao Zhangtou kicked him again, shook his head, got up and walked away.

By three o'clock in the afternoon, Sun Yan had repaired two cars and washed one. To his surprise, Sun Qixiang did not call after the temporary skip of work this time, gloating in the middle of the afternoon, almost half past four, a young man in his thirties came to the car repair shop, looked around, saw Sun Yan lying on the recliner to rest, and asked him: "Little master, has the motorcycle I sent two days ago repaired?" ”

"What car?"

"Domestic Dayang car DY125-2A model." The man replied.

"Oh, that car, I built it!" Sun Yan said as he got up and pushed the car from the carport to the man, and said, "Let's try it." ”

The man got on the bike and started it.

"How? It's not difficult to start. Sun Yan asked.

The man nodded, added the gas pedal again, and asked, "What's the problem with the car?" ”

"The filter failed, so I changed the filter for you."

"Isn't the carburetor broken?" The man looked at Sun Yan in confusion.

"How many carburetors did you change?" Sun Yan asked.

"It's two, and it won't take long."

Sun Yan shook his head and said: "Your filter has been broken for a long time, as soon as the filter fails, it will make impurities clog the carburetor, even if the carburetor is replaced, the fundamental problem is still not solved, and it will still be blocked after a long time." I also checked the rest of the car, there is no big problem, I have cleaned up the things that should be cleaned, you can rest assured to ride back, if there is any problem, come to me, I will help you repair it for free. ”

The man nodded with a smile, raised his eyes to look at Sun Yan, and said with a smile: "Little master, you are really real." If it gets worse, I'll ask you to fix it, and then you'll have to give me an explanation. ”

"No problem."

"That's fine!" The man took out a cigarette from his pocket, took one for himself, handed it to Sun Yan, and asked, "Do you smoke it?" ”

Sun Yan took the cigarette, the man lit it for him, took a few puffs, turned his head and saw the man staring at him, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Little master, I feel that you are very familiar!" The man shook his head incredulously.

"Familiar? We've seen each other before? ”

"I don't know, but you look a lot like someone I hate!" The man laughed.

Sun Yan was speechless and took a few puffs of cigarette.

At this time, the man's mobile phone rang, and he answered the phone, which was very noisy, and there was a loud man with a very thick voice who yelled at him on the phone. The man frowned and muttered, "Got it." Then he hung up the phone.

"Boss?" Sun Yan smiled sympathetically.

"Isn't it! It's so able to toss people, and when you're off work, you're giving me a whole zombie! Let's go! The man finished and rode away on his motorcycle.

Sun Yan threw the cigarette butt to the ground, ran it over with his foot, and turned around and walked back to the carport.

When I got home at five o'clock, my mother Chen Shuyan was cooking dinner, and the smell of oil smoke in the room choked Sun Yan, who had just entered the house.

walked into the kitchen and saw Chen Shuyan busy there alone, so he asked, "Mom, have you opened the range hood?" ”

"That thing is broken, and it hasn't been repaired yet!" Chen Shuyan said without looking back, "Where did you go today?" ”

"Work."

"The one your dad found you?"

"Ahh Sun Yan replied lazily.

Chen Shuyan didn't care, but after a while, he suddenly remembered something again, and said: "Oh, you came back just in time, I almost forgot, your father worked overtime tonight, you brought him dinner, and the file he forgot." ”

"What file?" Sun Yan said, and at a glance he saw a yellow brown paper bag placed on the edge of the dining table, which was thick and should have a lot of information inside.

Sun Yan hastily ate a few bites of dinner, and then rode to the Institute of Archaeology of Province M. When I arrived at the entrance of the institute, I saw that the cars in the parking shed outside were full, and there were a few Daben parked on the side of the road, and the lights in the institute were bright.

Sun Yan had no choice but to stop the bicycle at the door of the research institute, and wondered in his heart: It's all at this time, why are they all on the post?

When I entered the research institute, I first met the technician Xiao Da Lip, who was trotting down from the upstairs with a bunch of materials, his cheeks were flushed, and he seemed to be very excited, and when he saw Sun Yan, he immediately smiled all over his face: "Yo! Little grandson, I'm delivering food to your dad again, what a diligent and good son! But this time he may not be in the mood to eat! ”

Xiao Dayian is not a few years older than Sun Yan, graduated from a bachelor's degree, and his grandfather used to be an archaeologist in this research institute, so he squeezed in and started as a technician.

Although this person is smart, he is flamboyant, and he is usually very embarrassed in the research institute under the name of his grandfather, especially when he sees Sun Yan, his big lips are like a jar of peanut oil, and he trembles like a machine gun.

Sun Yan didn't bother to take care of him, so he glanced at him and asked, "What about my dad?" ”

"It's in the 315 appraisal department! This time we can get a good thing, it's different from all the antiques, it's all over the house."

Sun Yan waved his hand, ignored him, and walked straight upstairs. As soon as he went upstairs, he happened to walk out of the corner and bumped into Sun Yan impartially.

"Ah, I'm sorry!" The man was concentrating on looking down at the information, and only woke up violently when he hit Sun Yan's back.

Sun Yan looked back at him and saw that this person was very familiar.

"Little master, why are you here!" The man shouted suddenly.

Sun Yan was stunned for a moment, only to realize that this person was not the man who went to the garage to repair the car in the afternoon! Sun Yan was stunned for a while, and then squeaked: "Ah, I'm here to bring food to my father." ”

"Your dad? Your dad works here? The man looked at him in disbelief.

"Ah, yes." Sun Yan turned around and smiled, "He worked overtime tonight, so I brought him food." ”

The man looked Sun Yan up and down again, and asked him with a little suspicion on his face, "What kind of work is your father doing here?" Mechanic? I probably know. ”

Before Sun Yan could answer, a voice suddenly came from behind him: "His father is Director Sun!" ”
