- Chapter 57 There seems to be something wrong with the shuttle bus
Now Luo Cheng is a seventh-level engineer and enjoys administrative-level treatment. There are differences in housing arrangements. Some higher-level people will allocate single-family compounds to them to live in. For people like Luo Cheng, it is impossible to expect a single-family compound, but at least they will not be assigned to a bad place. If they are lucky, they will not even get a small courtyard. question.
The next day, the two sisters got up before Luo Cheng again and had to help Luo Cheng pack his things, including quilts, clothes and many scattered things. After that, the eldest brother went to live in the city, and these things had to be taken away.
Of course, this also means that the two of them can return to living in the same house without having to squeeze into a small bed. But now they hope that grandma will quickly find a wife for their second brother Bingzi, and then ‘drive’ them out, so that they can only go to the city to live with their eldest brother. Good~~but~~poor~.
Luo Cheng told his mother last night that there was no need to take any more roasted sweet potatoes with him on the road. When he arrived at Ngee Ann City, he could go directly to the factory canteen to eat them. The main thing is that roasted sweet potatoes are delicious, but if you eat too much, you will end up farting.
This time I didn’t go out too early to wait for the bus. When I got on the bus and waited for the bus, I understood that only one car would pass by the intersection in their town, at least around ninety o’clock. There is no clock, but it is a sunny day today. You can roughly analyze the time by looking at the height of the sun, so you can go a little earlier.
On the way, the two younger sisters came to see her off again. Xiaoyu helped carry the quilt, and Shishi carried some luggage. Luo Cheng was empty-handed again, and when he arrived at Ngee Ann Bus Station this time, he would not walk to the auto repair shop on two legs stupidly.
When asking for directions last time, you shouldn’t ask others how to get there, but ask how to take the shuttle bus. If in later generations you ask how to get to somewhere, most people will talk about how many buses it takes to get there. At this time, if you ask how to get there, I will really tell you how to get there.
Not long after, Luo Cheng and his two sisters arrived at the intersection where the shuttle bus stopped. There were hills and woods on both sides of the intersection. The three of them squatted by the tree and chatted. This time, the time was relatively good, and the bus arrived before long.
The driver is still Zhao Dajin. There are two round trips on one route in a day, so it is impossible to arrange more drivers. Unless you apply for time off, the station will arrange for other drivers to take over for a day or two.
After putting the things away, Luo Cheng gave the two sisters 50 cents each. After he settled in the city, they could come and live in the city for a while. They didn’t have to wait until Luo Cheng got married and moved into a side room before they could go to the city to find him.
“This brother is from a car repair shop.”
After Luo Cheng got on the bus, the driver Zhao Dajin said to the conductor that the conductor was not the same person as last time. The driver only needs to make one or two trips a day. In addition to running on the road, he also has to wait for passengers at the station. The driver is tired from driving. It is impossible for the ticket seller in the car to only sell tickets for two trips a day. It depends on which car needs it. Let’s go, whoever sells tickets can get on.
The driver is fixed, but the conductor is not, so Zhao Dajin shouted directly to the conductor. I heard that he was from a car repair shop, and the conductor was very conscious and didn’t say much. Anyway, you are receiving the salary above, so there is no need to offend anyone.
“Brother Zhao, it seems difficult to drive your car.”
On the way, Luo Cheng chatted with Zhao Dajin again, but found that he seemed to have some difficulty turning the steering wheel when driving this bus.
“Brother, you are worthy of being a car repairman. This car was fine when I drove it last year. But I don’t know how to drive it, and the steering wheel becomes tighter and tighter. Not only the car I drive, but also many cars in the station have this problem. I don’t know what the situation is.”
“Then you didn’t take the car to the repair shop for inspection.”
“Why not? It was inspected at your factory, and no faults were found. It is said that the car has been driven for a long time, and it will not be easy to drive as a new car.”
Go, where is the theory? Luo Cheng was frightened by Zhao Dajin’s words. Unless the car is faulty, it will be easier to drive after it has passed the running-in period.
There are many aspects that can cause difficulty in steering the wheel. Luo Cheng directly spread some knowledge in this area to Zhao Dajin in the car.
The first is that the tire pressure is too low, that is, the tire is not full of air, and it will be difficult. However, the difficulty caused by this aspect is generally not too difficult. In addition, if the tire is flat, it will be discovered long ago.
The other thing is the steering oil. If the car is maintained regularly, it won’t be as tight as Zhao Dajin said. Although car maintenance in this era was not as frequent as later, it was still inspected regularly.
The problems Luo Cheng mentioned were all minor and could be eliminated, so the difficulty of turning the steering wheel on this bus might involve problems that were not minor.
“Brother Zhao, your car needs a serious overhaul. Don’t think it is a small problem. If there is an accident, it will be a big problem. There will only be two results at that time, either it cannot drive or the bearing will break. The steering wheel is out of order.”
“Brother, don’t scare me. Many buses at our station are like this, and the situation you mentioned has never happened.”
Zhao Dajin listened to what Luo Cheng said so clearly, and he somewhat believed what he said. But didn’t the master at the auto repair shop say there was no problem before? If there was a problem, how could it be possible that other cars were like this instead of just one car?
“Okay, maybe I made a mistake in my judgment. Let me go back to the factory and ask the factory director.”
Luo Cheng hesitated at this time. He was not familiar with the structure of this bus. He had just graduated from a technical school and did not have much practical work. This was rarely the case when playing with modified cars. After all, Zhao Dajin said it, and the repairman’s master said there was no problem, so he might be really wrong.
The car arrived at the station safely. Luo Cheng planned to invite Zhao Dajin to dinner, but was declined. He said that he would invite me next time he had the chance. After all, it was not meal time yet, and they also had a canteen at the station, so there was no need to spend money.
Luo Cheng thought about it. Anyway, there will be many opportunities to contact him in the future, so he will invite you next time. After asking about the bus routes in the city, Luo Cheng was ready to take the bus. Route 3, there is a stop near the car repair shop, which is on the street next to the guest house where Luo Cheng stayed last time.
Taking the bus only costs two cents, and the payment is still collected manually. Just like the shuttle bus, if you need reimbursement, you can also tear up the receipt and give it to you. Even if you don’t need reimbursement, try to ask the conductor for a ticket, because sometimes during peak periods, there are many people, and sometimes the conductor can’t remember you even if you pay but don’t get a ticket.
When the car is moving, and there are many people, what the conductor often does is to rely on his memory that cannot remember people, walk back and forth in the car, and ask each one, “Hey, have you bought a ticket?” ’ At this time, you spent money and didn’t ask for a ticket. Unless the conductor can remember you, or someone can testify for you, you won’t pay for the ticket anymore, and there will be a fight.
