When Li Lin returned to the grain depot, the brothers were preparing a meal, and Xitong came over with a bundle of hemp rope, "Brother, see if this rope works, if it doesn't work, I'll change it." ”

Ropes are bought for emergencies, and if another wheat bag falls out of the car, it can be pulled up with a rope.

"Yes, it's good." Li Lin put the hemp rope in the basket and said, "Brother Dasen will be at the train station at 12 o'clock tonight, you go to pick him up, let him stay here for the night and then go home." ”

Xitong said: "Don't worry, brother, I'll pick it up with Duan Lei." ”

Li Lin shouted Dong Biao to ride out of the warehouse, spend 6 yuan on the street to drink a bowl of braised noodles, and then return to Lijia Village at night.

Looking at the 78 bags of wheat in the yard of the village chief's house, Li Lin was both happy and melancholy, the tractor could not fill 78 bags in one trip, and it was estimated that he would have to work all night.

Li Lin said: "Biaozi, do you know good wheat, dry wheat, wet wheat? ”

Dong Biao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, brother, I have been dealing with wheat all my life, and it should be no problem." ”

Li Lin said: "Okay, you can inspect this batch of goods." ”

Dong Biao didn't say a word and began to inspect the goods, carefully inspecting the quality one bag after another, and the technique was quite professional.

Li Lin is very satisfied, and the quality inspection work can be handed over to Dong Biao in the future.

After all 78 bags of goods were inspected, Dong Biao said: "They are all good wheat, and no resurgence has been found." ”

Li Lin said: "Okay, let's load the truck by weighing." ”

Enough to fill 40 bags to settle accounts with Li Dajun, Li Lin recorded a running account in the account book: on June 4, 1996, Li Dajun purchased 2.2 tons of wheat, with a unit price of 0.32 yuan and an expenditure of 1,408 yuan, which was 291.8 tons short of 300 tons

After settling the account and braking with a big rope, Li Lin held the bicycle and wanted to hand it to Dong Biao on the roof.

Dong Biao hurriedly said: "I'll ride a foreign car and follow, yesterday's butt was cut by a branch." ”

Li Lin was a little embarrassed and said, "Medium, I'll drive slowly." ”

The road is very bad, Li Lin drove very slowly, Dong Biao followed behind to watch the car, if he dropped the bag, he had to inform Li Lin to stop.

After getting on the highway from Yuqi Middle School, Li Lin accelerated, Dong Biao pedaled his bicycle hard to keep up, and when he walked to the Sunzhuang checkpoint, the traffic police showed the stop sign from afar.

Li Lin stopped hard, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Han Pingliang.

Han Pingliang said solemnly: "Do you know why you were stopped?" Your friend is riding a foreign car and dragging a tractor, it's dangerous! ”

Li Lin understood what he meant, Dong Biao held the handlebar of the bicycle with one hand, and dragged the tractor with the other hand to borrow force, in order to save effort.

This is very dangerous, and the slightest mistake can lead to accidents.

Han Pingliang taught Dong Biao a lesson, "The day before yesterday, someone rode a bicycle and dragged a tractor, and the tractor accelerated and dragged him to the bottom of the car, and the wheel of the car was directly crushed to death, do you know how dangerous your behavior is?" ”

His tone was too harsh, and Dong Biao, who was already short-tempered, stiffened his neck.

Li Lin hurriedly spoke: "Biaozi, Uncle Pingliang is for your good, hurry up and compensate our uncle." ”

Dong Biao listened to Li Lin's words, stood up straight and bowed his head to apologize: "Uncle Pingliang, I'm sorry, don't be like me." ”

Han Pingliang said: "Forget it this time, and you will be fined next time." ”

After speaking, he grabbed Li Lin's shoulders and left, walked to a place where no one was and said, "Go to my house tomorrow to Lamai, the old man is in a hurry." ”

Li Lin said: "I will definitely arrive before 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, even if there is a knife in the sky, I will also take Mai away." ”

Han Pingliang whispered: "Erlin, I'm embarrassed about something, my captain heard about us, and I don't know who told the secret." ”

The implication is that the captain also wants to sell high-priced wheat, but in fact, I told the secret, and I want to use high-priced wheat to pat him on the back.

Li Lin knew it and said, "The price is still the same price, you ask him if he is willing to sell, and ask my master to give me a word when I go to your house tomorrow." ”

"No problem." Han Pingliang handed Li Lin a cigarette and said, "It's okay, you hurry up and get busy." ”

Li Lin drove away, walked 2 miles, parked the car on the side of the road, took out a lighter and lit a cigarette.

Dong Biao pushed the car over and said cautiously, "Brother, why don't you leave?" ”

Li Lin said: "I don't have the strength to argue with the traffic police now, and if I don't stop them just now, I will definitely be fined." ”

Dong Biao had already realized his mistake, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry brother, it's all my fault!" ”

Li Lin said: "Fines are trivial matters, in case of an accident, how can you let my aunt live?" How do you want me to explain it to them? ”

Dong Biao was even more ashamed and lowered his head.

Li Lin put his hand on his shoulder and said, "In my heart, you are my good brother just like Xitong, I hope you can carry the burden of the family forward, understand?" ”

Dong Biao patted his chest, gritted his teeth and said firmly, "I know." ”

Li Lin started the tractor and continued to hurry, but he was a little melancholy in his heart, with his current economic strength, he really couldn't afford a traffic accident.

After unloading the goods back to the warehouse, Dong Biao was left behind when pulling the second cargo, and Duan Lei was escorted by car.

Xitong saw that Dong Biao was sullen, and casually asked what was going on, but Dong Biao didn't dare to hide it and explain it clearly.

Bi Kun said: "Brother Erlin is right, you can't fight with the traffic police, they say that if you are fined, you will be fined." ”

Duan Daqing said: "Our brother is for your good, don't complain in your heart." ”

"I didn't complain, whoever complains is not human!" Dong Biao flatly denied it, saying: "It's just that our brother won't let me go back to Lamai with him, and I'm upset." ”

Xitong lit a cigarette and said, "If you die in an accident, what will our brother do?" ”

Dong Biao shook his head, "I don't know, I shouldn't treat my mother and my sister badly." ”

Xitong said: "His biggest shortcoming is that he attaches great importance to feelings, he will take care of your family for a lifetime, and my brothers will have a snack, don't make trouble for him if you have nothing to do." ”

Everyone bowed their heads and remained silent, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.

Li Lin drove back to the village chief's house and loaded the remaining 38 bags of wheat into the truck.

Open the ledger and keep accounts: On June 4, 1996, Li Dajun purchased 2.1 tons of wheat at a unit price of 0.32 yuan and an expenditure of 1,344 yuan, which was 289.7 tons short of 300 tons.

Li Dajun said: "Tomorrow, there will be five families selling wheat, at least more than 100 bags, you can't finish pulling them overnight, right?" ”

Li Lin said: "I don't have time during the day, let's let you go first." ”

Li Dajun said: "You don't understand what I mean, the goods will only be collected more and more, and it is not okay to only pull the goods at night, or I will let the national soldiers send them to you during the day?" ”

Li Lin decisively shook his head and refused: "I'll teach the guys to drive tomorrow, and let them come over to pull the goods later." ”

Li Dajun wanted to kick Li Lin away and cooperate directly with the boss behind the scenes, so he generously went out of the car and went out again.

It's a pity that there is no behind-the-scenes boss at all, Li Lin is the boss, and Li Lin doesn't want him to know where the warehouse is.

Li Dajun secretly scolded Li Lin for being a little fox, and said in his heart that I don't believe that I can't catch up with the big boss.

The tractor was moving forward on the national highway, and when it was still 3 miles away from the cotton and linen factory, it suddenly turned off, Li Lin hurriedly got out of the car to check, and failed to start after shaking it twice.

"Brother Erlin, is there no oil?"

"No, I just filled up the tank yesterday, you go find a little stick."

Duan Lei climbed onto the poplar tree and folded a branch, and Li Lin opened the fuel tank cover and inserted the branch into the fuel tank.

After a few seconds, the branch was taken out and lit with a lighter, and there was still a lot of oil, and the car was broken.

Duan Lei said: "What should I do? I couldn't find someone to fix the car so late. ”

Li Lin screwed on the fuel tank cap and scratched his head depressedly, he could only blame himself for being unlucky when he encountered this kind of thing.

Duan Lei said: "I'll go home and pull a car, we can't spend the night on the same road." ”

Li Lin thought for a while and said, "You go to the warehouse to inform Xitong and Dong Biao, and let them go home and pull the car." ”
