When I looked at the condition of the car, I knew that the owner must have died with this trip. The owner's face is as ugly as his dead parents, but his attitude is good.
The owner's surname is Ma, in his thirties. I call him Big Brother Ma, and Big Brother Ma said that the car broke down halfway. This car of watermelons must be delivered to Baoding wholesale market before delivery tomorrow morning, otherwise his business will be ruined in the future.
I assured him on the spot that the goods would be delivered on time. Brother Ma was very refreshing and ordered me two thousand yuan for shipping on the spot.
However, Brother Ma and the driver accompanying me were adding me, and it was a time-consuming and labor-consuming task for three people to dump a car of watermelons. However, Brother Ma paid so easily, and I had no complaints after a long drought.
It took two hours to pour a cart of watermelons. I almost collapsed because I didn't eat for a whole day. At this time, the sky was getting dark. After Brother Ma called the consignee first, I drove on the road immediately.
It takes only three hours to reach the delivery address, and if everything goes well, I can go home at the first twelve o'clock.
Halfway, I was so hungry that I couldn't carry it anymore, so I stopped halfway and ate a watermelon to satisfy my hunger. To be honest, it is against professional ethics to do so, but this kind of thing is also tacit, and even if I eat a truckload of watermelons, I can't see it even if I unload 20 or 30 watermelons.
To paraphrase a line from the soldier Zhang Ga: I can unload more than ten bags of rice when I pull grain, let alone eat a few rotten watermelons.
This watermelon sand is full of water, two words: delicious!
A watermelon filled my stomach and filled my stomach a lot. I drove on the road again and drove unimpeded. I arrived at a fruit wholesale market in Baoding in less than two hours.
While they were unloading the truck, I first went to a small restaurant outside the market to eat. After eating and drinking, most of the car has been unloaded. I was sitting in the car and smoking to pass the time. At this moment, someone knocked on the glass and turned around to see that he was a well-dressed man in his 40s or 50s.
I opened the car door and asked him what happened.
The other party said that his surname was Zhao and he wanted to rent my car to get something.
As soon as I heard this, I immediately became interested, and things must be reversed. Some time ago, I was unlucky. Now, it is not a good thing to run the business and automatically find the door.
"Yes, what are you pulling?" I asked and subconsciously scanned the wholesale market to see if there was anything to pull.
"I want to move." The other party said.
I immediately felt that the other party was making fun of me and said: "When you move, you find a moving company, what are you doing with me."
The other party seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and rubbed his hands and said: "The moving company can't hold a car, and the price is expensive. I think your car is the right size. Just ask."
I checked the time and said, "I'm leaving soon and can't wait for tomorrow. You should find someone else."
"It's OK to pull now."
I couldn't help but frown, and I was moving at night. This was the first time I heard of it.
"Where is your home? Where do you move?"
The other party pointed to a village not far from the wholesale market
, Said: "It's very close, just five or six minutes. I moved to Douyu Town and walked directly on the national road. It's a half-hour away."
I checked the map with my mobile phone. It was not far away, and I was on the way home. I asked him how much he was going to pay.
"three hundred."
"No, at least eight hundred."
"It's too expensive. I find a moving company for only 800. I'm adding three hundred and five for you."
I was almost amused by him. This man can really bargain. It would be a pity not to do business. After a round of bargaining, it was finally set at five hundred. Although the price of five hundred is not high, it is better than nothing. Thinking that I still have a debt of 50,000 yuan, I took it for the return trip.
After unloading the watermelon in the car, the other party got into my car. After simple communication, I learned that his name is Zhao Youde. Under Zhao Youde's guidance, he arrived at the village he said in five or six minutes. This village is quite rich. They are all two-storey small western-style buildings, neatly built, and every household is brightly lit.
Zhao Youde's house is outside the village, and parking is very convenient. When I got out of the car, I saw a lot of things to be moved in his yard, closets, bookshelves, sofas...
I put down the carriage of the truck and turned my head to see a woman walking out of the room. It seems that Zhao Youde's wife should be Zhao Youde's age. Behind Zhao Youde's wife is a teenage boy.
It may be that the little boy didn't want to move, he was very upset, pouting and staring at me while the Zhao Youde and his wife were not paying attention.
I first went to Zhao Youde's room and went around to see if there was anything to pull in. The contents of the room were almost moved. But looking at the furniture in the yard, I feel a little worried. The car can fit it, but it’s a bit difficult to put it in the car. The key thing is that there are many things that are heavy. Things like wardrobes and sofas are difficult for the three of us to get in the car.
Zhao Youde saw my worry and said he was going to the neighbors for help.
In a short while, more than a dozen people came out of the neighborhood, all of whom were older, and even old men and old ladies, which made me wonder if this village was a village for the elderly.
Enthusiastic people were very quick to help. When I was moving the dressing table, I found a picture of Zhao Youde and his wife sitting in the middle. On both sides of them stood the little boy and the other. A teenage girl.
The girl is tall, with long black hair, melon-seeded face, bright eyes and white teeth, full of youthfulness.
"Is this your daughter?" I asked.
Zhao Youde said proudly, "Yes, my daughter's name is Zhao Man. She is a sophomore at XX Aviation University. She will be a flight attendant after graduation. My daughter is pretty!"
I am busy saying beautiful, this is not flattery, but her daughter is really beautiful.
"Old Zhao, what's in your box? Why is it so heavy?" A little old man panted and carried a red wooden box.
I know this kind of box, it’s used for clothes. When I was young, my family had a similar wooden box.
However, the wooden box of Zhao Youde's is obviously much better than the one of mine. It is about the size of a 28-inch trolley box. The wooden box is also carved with fine patterns, which looks like an old object.
Zhao Youde hurriedly ran over and told them not to move. He should be afraid that those old arms and legs would be damaged by hand and feet, so Zhao Youde asked me to help lift it.
I bent down, and I did not get up when I tried hard with both hands.
So heavy!
"Uncle, what's in it? Why is it so heavy?" I couldn't help asking.
Zhao Youde secretly glanced at the helping neighborhood and whispered, "Good stuff."
I was amused by his mystery. Together with Zhao Youde, I lifted the wooden box into the car. The wooden box is really heavy. It is estimated that it weighs at least one hundred and eighty jin. There was a slander in my heart, surely it wasn't clothes, gold? silver
It's not like, because I didn't hear the collision of hard objects inside, but what could be so heavy? I can't guess.
Thanks to everyone’s help, everything was installed in half an hour.
When Zhao Youde thanked everyone, I closed the car board and said, "Uncle, get in the car."
Zhao Youde responded and helped his wife to climb up the car. I reminded him that he can sit in the cab. Four people can sit down. Zhao Youde refused to insist on letting his wife and son sit in the carriage.
Seeing that he was so stubborn, I couldn’t say anything. I looked around for his son. When I looked up, I found that the little boy was already standing on the carriage. The guy stared at me.
It's really hard to communicate! I didn't care about them with a wry smile, so I got into the car first.
On the way to Douyu Town, I asked Zhao Youde why he moved here because the environment is good. Zhao Youde sighed and said, "I'm not used to it here. It's better to live in my hometown."
"I think you have a very harmonious relationship with the neighbors."
Zhao Youde smiled and said, "When you get to my time, you will understand what falling leaves are."
I glanced at Zhao Youde, smiled and said, "Maybe."
Drive along the 107 National Highway, and from time to time you can see the large trucks passing by. Looking to the side of the road, you can see the village with little lights under the empty night.
I checked the time and asked how long Zhao Youde would be able to arrive.
"Immediately, get off at the intersection ahead."
After the national highway is a gravel road, on both sides of the road are slices of wheat fields, with mysterious waves glowing under the bright moonlight. After walking for five or six minutes, a small village appeared in front of him. Under the guidance of Zhao Youde, the car was parked in front of a big house on the side of the village.
As soon as the car stopped, someone opened the door and greeted it.
This big house occupies a full area of two acres, with high red brick walls, lush trees in the yard to cover the sky, and a rockery and flower pond. The innermost is a classic-style three-story building.
This is Zhao Youde's house? He is so rich!
