Chapter 111: Nanhu Town
Chen Fan was very angry.
Why is a carriage not a car?
He followed Master Liu to learn to drive a carriage, and after listening to the precautions for a long time, he finally grasped the essence of driving a carriage, that is, how to drive livestock.
It's roughly "driving", "boom", "hoo", "oh".
There are also some whip throwing skills.
Chen Fan still needs a whip to catch a car?
After figuring out the mystery of catching the car, I directly discussed it with the donkey pulling the cart, "Run forward, run steadily, run steadily and come back to feed you grass, if you can't run steadily, do you see the big whip in the hand of the old man in front of you?" You know it hurts, right? Then run! β
Then he learned to drive a donkey cart.
But the skill board doesn't admit that this is a driving skill, but instead there is a "rush car"?
Bullying the donkey cart is not the meaning of the car?!
He was not angry, but Master Liu, who taught him, was depressed.
Master Liu has been a veteran for decades, and before liberation, he was doing the work of driving donkeys and carts, and remembering that he followed his master to get up early in the morning and learn to drive and serve livestock, it was really a bitter tear, and it was not easy to learn the ability to drive a car.
Today, I wanted to have a good time in front of Xiao Chen, the man of the year in the team, but before he finished speaking, Xiao Chen urged the lazy donkey to run hard.
I gave the donkey to Xiao Chenla, because this donkey is very lazy, he can't stand when he can lie down, and he definitely doesn't run when he can walk, which is very suitable for novices to pull, and basically there will be no problem of overturning.
Look at the lazy donkey now, it runs forward like a happy hoof, what's the matter, there is a female donkey in front?
Even if there is a female donkey, can she still pull the car board steadily?
Still running ahead of me?
They are dizzy, and the donkey pulling the cart is even more dizzy.
On the front board, Chen Fan sat on the left, waving the whip with his right hand, testing the "whip method" taught by Master Liu.
Jiang Lili sat next to Chen Fan, that is, on the other side of the cart, her hands tightly grasped the board block, and her eyes were a little straight when she looked at the donkey.
How could this donkey be so able to run today, and it only took ten minutes to run to the commune?
Seeing that there was a street in front of him, and there were many people on the street, Chen Fan hurriedly told the donkey to slow down, and then asked, "This is the commune?" β
Jiang Lili came back to her senses and nodded, "Ah, yes, this is Nanhu Town." β
Chen Fan had already stretched his neck and looked at the town with the characteristics of the times.
There is no clear boundary between the town and the countryside, and a small dirt slope on a piece of farmland is the town's street.
There are brick houses on both sides of the street, which look like private houses, and there are no units, but the road surface is relatively wide, more than three times wider than the main road in the village.
Chen Fan asked curiously, "How big is the commune?" β
Jiang Lili looked at the crowd on the street, leaned slightly to Chen Fan's side, lowered her head and whispered, "Nanhu Town is actually two cross streets, one horizontal and one vertical, this is a north-south direction, mainly a residential area, and there are also several units of dormitory areas here, and those doors are iron gates. β
Chen Fan was still looking for signboards on the walls on both sides of the iron gate, and when he heard her words, he came to his senses, "It turned out to be the dormitory area." β
I was wondering in my heart, I heard that many of the unit dormitories in this era are tube buildings, and I don't see the building behind it?
The donkey cart passed by the door of the dormitory area, and he saw the layout of the house inside.
Originally, there were rows of bungalows inside, and the bungalows were facing each other in pairs, and it could be seen from the small bungalows two or three meters opposite the room, a little lower, that each room here was a family, that is, a small single room.
The single room has only one door and one window, and the back and sides are other people's homes, and the small room across the alley should be the kitchen.
A few seconds passed, the corners of Chen Fan's mouth twitched slightly, and he turned to Jiang Lili and whispered, "In terms of this housing condition, in addition to being a brick house, it is not as good as a mud-walled house in the countryside." β
Just this kind of house, after more than 20 years, will have a proper noun, "shantytown".
But now it doesn't feel old, it's just that it's narrower than the spaciousness of the countryside.
Hearing his words, Jiang Lili lowered her head and pursed her lips and smiled.
For the first time in so many years, she has heard that the town is not as good as the countryside, although it is only a small town, but let those educated youths and members choose, if one counts one, they will definitely choose the "narrow" brick house here, not the mud-walled house in the countryside.
Behind them, Master Liu also seemed to be a celebrity, greeting pedestrians on the street from time to time.
"Eh, go to the market, you guys too."
"Ah, catch the car, Master Chen in our team sells something, okay, see you later."
Listening to Master Liu's voice behind him, Chen Fan glanced back and said with a smile, "Master Liu knows a lot of people?" β
Jiang Lili whispered, "Master Liu has been driving for decades, not to mention here, even if he goes to the county seat, he also has acquaintances he knows, so he often says that he doesn't need to bring dry food when he goes out, and he won't go hungry wherever he goes." β
Chen Fan smiled and nodded, "That means that Master Liu has a good character and can make friends with many people, and if he has a bad character, he can't make a few friends in a lifetime." β
Jiang Lili was slightly stunned, when others heard about Master Liu before, they all said that he had traveled more roads and knew more people. Chen Fan's words, she heard it for the first time.
But if you think about it, it seems to make some sense.
As he spoke, the donkey cart arrived at the crossroads.
Jiang Lili came back to her senses and pointed to the horizontal street, "This street is Jianshe Road, and it was Shengli Street just now." Victory Street is mainly a residential area, and there are major units on the construction road. The commune government compound, post and telecommunications office, substation, grain management office, water conservancy office, supply and marketing cooperative, repair shop, and some other units are all on the way to construction.
To the east of the construction road, it is to go to the direction of the county seat, to the west is the factory area, the carton factory, the paper mill, the fertilizer factory, the pesticide factory, the cement factory, the match factory, the coal factory, the brick factory, the machinery factory, the water transport company These units are all at this end, this side is close to the river embankment, and it is more convenient to use water. β
Hearing her introduction, Chen Fan was a little surprised, "There are so many units in the commune? β
Just kidding, it's just a little-known town, and as you can tell from the fact that there are only two cross streets, it's really not that big.
In such a small place, there can be ten factories and enterprises?
Jiang Lili couldn't help but smile when she saw him so surprised, "It's said that it's a factory, but in fact, most of them are workshops, and the largest water transportation company has less than two hundred workers, and this still counts the cooks, and the smallest match factory only has a dozen people."
These factories were set up a few years ago when the 'five small industries' were advocated, and there were steel factories and coke factories in the past, which were later abolished. β
After a pause, he lowered his voice and whispered, "The educated youth are all spreading that the carton factory and cement factory may also be withdrawn next year, so many people are trying to find a way to transfer to other units." β
Chen Fan laughed dryly.
Yes, I was too naΓ―ve, I really thought it was a big factory, and it turned out that there was only one brand.
After the intersection and then across the south side of Victory Street, you get out of town.
Then Chen Fan knew why the place to gather was set up in the 5th team of Ganjia Village.
It's so big!
