Chapter 64 A Land of "Tractors"



The worse news is that the tractor was completely disassembled and still couldn't be repaired.

When Captain Qian heard the news, his vision blurred and he almost fainted!

If it hadn't been completely disassembled, he could have tried to send it to the city, or begged and pleaded to get someone from the original manufacturer to fix it!

But if it's all demolished, how will he get it to the city?

Should we pack them into sacks, one by one, or string them together with rope and hang them around our necks to deliver them?

He even called the original manufacturer, but they not only refused to send anyone to repair it, they also scolded Captain Qian!

What were you thinking before you even dismantled it? How can you repair it if you take it all apart? It's beyond repair, so you might as well just scrap it!

If it weren't for running into Captain Hu, who was delivering grain to the commune, Captain Qian would have been willing to atone with his death!

It's really embarrassing to send a tractor that's only three years old, which we just got from the commune, to be scrapped!

According to Captain Hu, the tractors in their Dahegouzi Village also broke down during the harvest season.

Moreover, it was a major problem like water getting into the internal combustion engine. Everyone thought it was going to be scrapped, but Zhong Wanwan actually fixed it in just one afternoon.

So, Captain Qian came here purely because he was clinging to Zhong Wanwan as a lifeline!

Upon hearing that the entire tractor had been disassembled, Zhong Wanwan frowned and asked:

"All the parts were disassembled? Where were they disassembled? The tractor wasn't moved, was it?"

Captain Qian's heart was in his throat; this was the first technician to ask about the tractor's condition.

Previously, when they heard that everything was being dismantled, they shook their heads like rattles, saying that it couldn't be put back together, and even if it was put back together, it wouldn't be usable!

Captain Qian quickly said:

"No, no, the tractor broke down. We carried it to the rice mill and called a technician from the county repair station. It was repaired at the rice mill!"

"Later, they all turned into a pile of parts, and you couldn't move them anymore!"

Zhong Wanwan nodded; she didn't want to repair things that others had dismantled.

Finding the correct part for a part that wasn't placed there by the user is a very time-consuming task.

It's like someone taking apart a Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains jigsaw puzzle, scrambling all the small pieces, and then asking you to put them back together.

How do I spell this out? Does anyone know which part belongs to which region?

Zhong Wanwan considered carefully and said:

"We can't guarantee that all the parts will be available; we might need to find replacements!"

Captain Qian immediately said:

"Okay, okay, finding spare parts is no problem. Just write it down later, and I'll buy the necessary parts even if I have to go to Harbin!"

Zhong Wanwan continued:

"The repairs might take quite a while; my master and his apprentices have been going back and forth between the farm..."

Captain Qian immediately said:

"Don't worry about that. I've talked to Director Wei, and there won't be any problem with tractor transportation. As for what we need to pay for the diesel fuel later, our village is willing to cover it!"

After saying that, Captain Qian looked at Zhong Wanwan earnestly.

Zhong Wanwan nodded and said:

"Then we'll have to trouble Captain Qian. We'll do our best to fix it. If we can't fix it, please don't blame us, Captain Qian!"

Although Zhong Wanwan felt that the probability of it not being repairable was extremely low, after all, she had so many parts in her spatial storage, she was sure she could find a matching one!

However, one should not be too certain about anything, otherwise, if anything unexpected happens, it will be hard to say!

Captain Qian immediately assured him:

"Just do your best. Whether it's fixed well or not, I'll be grateful and I definitely won't blame you!"

What's so strange about that? They didn't make any requests, and they just came to build it for their village. That made Captain Qian quite happy, and he didn't have any other expectations!

Of course, they didn't mention anything, and Captain Qian didn't have much hope that they could fix the tractor.

All I can say is that I've done my best and left the rest to fate.

He'd tried so hard, and if he still couldn't fix it, he wouldn't have any regrets!

Captain Qian's village, Willow Tree Village, may not have much else, but it has a lot of chickens!

Unlike Hongxing Farm, Liushu Village has a lot of farmland.

Liushu Village is surrounded by mountains and forests, and there is not much arable land. In order to increase income, Liushu Village opened a chicken farm a few years ago.

The chicken farm is built in the mountains and forests, and the chickens roam freely in the woods.

It can be said that Liushu Village has many chickens, which is why Director Wei was very willing to lend Liushu Village a tractor.

Since it's not harvest season, the tractor is useless sitting there, so we might as well lend it to Liushu Village!

If we switch to some free-range chickens, we can each get some for one family before the New Year, so that everyone can have an extra dish on the New Year's table!

And so, Brother Wei drove the tractor, carrying Captain Qian, Zhong Wanwan and her four apprentices, as well as Wei Youliang who had been forced to join them, straight to Willow Tree Village!

Zhong Wanwan was stunned when she saw the tractor!

The scene of threshing rice reminded Zhong Wanwan of Guo Degang's crosstalk!

If the rice-milling area were replaced with the rooftop of Teacher Guo's junior apprentice's house, it would look even more like the real thing.

Zhong Wanwan looked at these parts, stroked her chin, and thought, "How many shoelaces will this take!"

The parts were really disassembled into too many pieces!

Zhong Wanwan guessed that it was probably the technician at the repair shop who originally intended to disassemble the entire machine for repair!

After disassembling it, I probably wouldn't be able to find the corresponding parts. The more I disassembled it, the more fragmented it became, making it even harder to put back together!

Zhong Wanwan's guess was actually not far from the truth!

Captain Qian was too enthusiastic, and the free-range chicken from the mountains smelled amazing!

The technicians at the Anxian repair station were eating free-range chicken and drinking a couple of glasses of liquor with Captain Qian, and they were completely tipsy!

In a daze, the technician completely dismantled the tractor. Only after the cold wind had mostly dissipated the smell of alcohol did he realize how many pieces the tractor had been taken apart!

He couldn't possibly remember where all the things he took apart while drunk were!

Even if he could remember it, it was all so fragmented, like trying to put a tractor back together—he couldn't reassemble it!

So he ran away that very night, and no matter how much Captain Qian tried to persuade him to come back the next day, he refused!

When he saw Zhong Wanwan arrive, he just frowned and thought about the parts, but didn't turn around and run away.

Captain Qian breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the person didn't run away, it meant there was still hope!

Looking at the parts of the rice mill, Wei Youliang couldn't tell how many parts there were, except for the cab, the cargo bed, and the four wheels!

He swallowed hard, tugged at Xiaobaiyang's sleeve, and whispered:

"Master Zhong, why don't we call Master Zhong, my aunt, Aunt Nan, and the others, and run quickly!"

Well, this isn't a tractor, it's a whole bunch of rice mill "tractors"!

The team leader said it was a money-losing operation, and it was even dismantled in some pieces. Is that a little bit?

If you remove the large, easily recognizable parts, and ask anyone, who could tell this is a tractor?
