Is it possible to repair a car without using your hands or legs? We'll have to find outside help!
We quickly tried to borrow someone from the city's repair shop, but the repair shop dared not agree to it. They knew their own skill level; even the old mechanic's skill was only so-so before he retired.
Later, the old master retired due to illness, and his son took over his job. It was truly a case that the old lady's New Year celebrations became worse year by year.
The master craftsman's son is okay at repairing bicycles, but his skills are limited to theory; he knows what's wrong, but he can't really fix it.
However, the leaders of the city's repair station and Director Li of the food factory were old acquaintances. Director Li boasted endlessly about how the food factory had found outside help to repair the truck transformer.
Of course, praising Zhong Wanwan's skills was just a side note; the main point was to boast about his own keen eye for talent and how he recruited Zhong Wanwan's most outstanding apprentice.
Upon hearing that it was Zhong Wanwan, Qiu Zean recalled that when they went up the mountain together last time, Director Wei had mentioned in casual conversation that Zhong Wanwan was a tractor repair technician at the farm.
Her skills were quite good; people were looking for her not only in nearby villages but also in neighboring counties and cities. At the time, Qiu Ze'an didn't take it seriously, just enjoying the spectacle.
Hearing the mention of it again immediately brought back memories of the incident, so I called Dongsheng Commune to ask to borrow Zhong Wanwan to come and fix the car.
When Zhong Wanwan arrived at the commune, she called Qiu Ze'an. After Qiu Ze'an explained the situation, Zhong Wanwan responded without hesitation:
"I'm going to the bus station now, and I should be there this afternoon. I'll have to go there to find out exactly where the bus broke down."
The unit where Qiu Zean was stationed was not far from the farm; it was just a short bus ride away.
Qiu Zean agreed:
"Okay, then come over now, and I'll arrange for someone to pick you up!"
Zhong Wanwan was quite fast; she went straight to the bus station after hanging up the phone.
As Zhong Wanwan got off the bus, she saw Qiu Ze'an standing not far from the jeep. Zhong Wanwan was pleasantly surprised and said:
"Battalion Commander Qiu, why did you come in person?"
Qiu Zean coughed twice and said:
"Since I have nothing else to do, I won't bother anyone else!"
"Master Zhong, thank you so much for coming all this way. It's such an emergency that you didn't even have a proper New Year's celebration before you rushed over."
Qiu Zean quickly changed the subject, mainly because he was embarrassed to tell lies.
There are quite a few people on their team who are willing to pick up Zhong Wanwan and have the time to do so, so he simply didn't ask anyone else to come.
Despite the fact that Zhong Wanwan's portrayal of Zhang Fei is so deeply ingrained in people's minds, Zhang Fei is indeed beautiful and has a cheerful personality.
Even if he beat them one by one at home, Qiu Zean's young soldiers would be overjoyed!
Qiu Zean couldn't stand their fawning attitude; it was too embarrassing for their team. He figured it was better to do it himself.
Zhong Wanwan didn't think much of it and went straight to the point after greeting everyone:
"How many cars have broken down? How serious is the situation?"
Qiu Zean frowned and said:
"The technician who examined your hand injury said it's quite serious. Don't be too stressed. If it can be repaired, great; if not, it's beyond repair!"
At that time, China was poor, and many of the military vehicles were older than the soldiers.
That's really true. New for three years, old for three years, patched up for another nine years. If all else fails, you have to make parts by hand and make do with it.
Let alone this broken car, none of the cars in Qiu Ze'an's team are less than ten years old.
The thought of scrapping another car made Qiu Ze'an frown even more, and his hand unconsciously reached for the cigarettes in his pocket.
Qiu Zean caught a glimpse of Zhong Wanwan out of the corner of his eye and withdrew his hand.
Zhong Wanwan did not make any boastful promises or pledges to fix it.
The military technicians are different from those at the city repair shops. They are all battle-hardened and experienced. They wouldn't say something might be scrapped unless it was really difficult to repair.
Zhong Wanwan wasn't sure if it could be fixed.
If the space has the corresponding parts, she can definitely fix it; if not, there's nothing she can do!
Even a skilled cook can't make a meal without rice. When it comes to the ability to make parts by hand, Zhong Wanwan is no match for a battle-hardened military repairman.
