Chapter 86 Chapter 86 Fishing Enforcement
After getting the banner from the police station, the truck continued to bump along.
There are few roads to choose from nowadays, and they are all gravel roads, let alone highways. The driving time will continue to increase. Even in provinces as close as northern and southern Hebei, it often takes 2 to 3 days, or even longer.
It doesn't matter who drives, because the driving distance and maximum speed limits are there, unless you reduce the former, increase the latter, or switch to other means of transportation.
This also means that you may need to drive at night or stop to rest overnight.
Regarding the night train stop, the two drivers usually have their own choices, but due to the deviation this afternoon, the night stop was not the one they planned on weekdays.
"Do you want to continue driving all night?"
Han Jing asked.
"No, let's get off the bus and rest for a while."
Master Chen replied.
In fact, it would be better to rest in a small town or village along the way. At least they don't have to sleep in the open air and can warm their stomachs with hot meals and soup.
As for why they did not choose this node before, it was because the village was xenophobic or unfamiliar, and they were worried that parking here would be dangerous.
But now they have Ye Yu, who is like a humanoid weapon. They can park anywhere. No matter where they park, the ones who are in danger are not them, but the bad guys who are trying to take advantage of them.
So they stopped the car and exchanged some dry firewood for hot water and food at a family's house.
When I was leaving, I saw a Land Rover.
Although these villagers did not block the road and rob people like the previous bandits, dozens of young men in the village seized their car and would not let them leave unless they paid a small amount of money.
While talking, their eyes were looking at Han Jing and Ye Yu.
It's obvious.
In fact, the villagers had no plan to do so because the cargo on the truck was all inedible iron lumps. However, they smelled Ye Yu and Han Jing eating dried meat and meat floss in a swaggering manner halfway through the journey.
After all, the flavor of meat can really waft for dozens of miles in an environment where meat is scarce.
At this time, the two masters thought about how Ye Yuliang seemed to have shown them the dried meat at the beginning of the afternoon, and he seemed to be hesitant to speak. Was this considered baiting the fish?
As expected, Ye Yu replied in a familiar voice: "No."
Quite decisive and neat.
The local villagers were unaware of the disaster that was about to happen. One person in the crowd was shouting obscene things like "Women shouldn't talk. Women have no place at the table. Go home and have children," which drew laughter from many people.
Little did they know that the two drivers looked at them as if they were fools who jumped into a pit and buried themselves. Did they know who they had offended?
"Really?"
Ye Yu sneered and asked back.
But she didn't go up and gave Han Jing a look. Han Jing, who was already angry because of these words, was not afraid at all facing so many people. He rubbed his hands and rushed in.
Two drivers:
???
The two driver masters were a little surprised again, because they found that Han Jing's skills were not simple either. He could fight ten or several times more people alone. He could not be defeated in one go, but he was also slippery and difficult to catch.
I took a few hits and lasted about ten minutes.
When Han Jing was about to give up, Ye Yu took action. In less than half a minute, dozens of people were lying or crawling on the ground. The people who had just shouted and laughed the loudest fell the hardest.
Where are they? What are they doing? Why are they like this?
Doubt life.
Then they started begging for mercy loudly, forgetting about women. Some men were so scared that their eyes and faces were covered with snot. They were ugly to begin with, and now they looked even uglier.
Perhaps because these villagers were a little better than the robbers in the afternoon, without that disgusting look, or at least they did not take the initiative to cause trouble, nor did they kill, Ye Yu did not treat them the same way as the robbers, but simply "exchanged" some food with them at a low price.
For them, this interception did not gain them anything, but instead caused them to bleed and get beaten.
“…”
Everyone on Ye Yu's side was involved, including the two drivers.
In fact, drivers are not unfamiliar with this kind of exchange. In addition to the high benefits and high risks of being a driver, they can also exchange things in other places, often bring things for relatives and friends privately, and even work for the black market in the past or in the future. It’s just that the places they exchange are often familiar places.
And because of the two strangers, Han Jing and Ye Yu, they originally planned to go empty-handed this time.
But in this case
——
Master Chen and Master Zhao looked at each other and decided that they didn't need to avoid certain places.
Keep going.
What was different from before was that this time, they did not avoid the Land Rover when they encountered it, and even deliberately turned around to hit it, or stopped to confront it. The two driver masters intentionally asked Ye Yu and others to help solve some "roadblocks".
Of course, before this, they will state their purpose, and they know this road very well and where the "roadblocks" are.
Then they encountered three more waves of bandits.
Ye Yu did not refuse. All the bandits who came to the door were thrown in a group at the door of the police station. Jinqi took two more and two of them were sent to the same police station.
There was even a police station that offered a bounty for catching a fugitive. The reward was 10 dollars, along with an enamel mug and a watch ticket, which was quite a lot.
The two drivers finally found their voices again. Since Ye Yu and Han Jing had driving licenses, they sincerely felt that they were very suitable for the job of driver.
Especially long distance transport.
Ye Yu refused without even thinking about it, but Han Jing hesitated for a while because he could touch the car, and then refused. He was interested in repairing cars, but he didn't like long-distance travel, unless he was with friends, otherwise it would be too lonely.
In exchange for their hard work in removing the "roadblocks", the two drivers took them to do some private exchanges.
It's not just a small village that's doing minor things. Of course, they don't dare to search for the black market at this critical moment, but some small factories in the surrounding areas that have already established connections.
As we all know, in addition to finished goods shipped out of the factory, state-owned factories also have defective goods that are only available to internal employees.
With the introduction of the two masters, Ye Yu exchanged dozens of kilograms of brown sugar at a sugar factory without using any receipts but only money.
This sugar factory mainly produces sugar from beets, which means there are large-scale beet cultivation nearby. They also exchanged some beet seeds, as well as planting seasons and methods.
There are other factories as well.
In exchange, he got flour, cloth, biscuits, iron pots, toilet paper, and even a small amount of farm tools. Han Jing also exchanged them for hard-to-get seasonal cotton, enough to make a quilt.
They also went to a slaughterhouse, but unfortunately they didn't get any meat or bones. They did get some pig offal, but it had a strong smell and was not suitable to be brought into the city.
There was no way Ye Yu would expose himself to the water just for a few pigs, so he had to give up.
Of course, this journey also delayed the trip quite a bit, extending the maximum two days to three and a half days.
Both drivers waved their hands and said everything was fine. This was equivalent to the time when the breakdown occurred on the road, and having a banner meant having an excuse, and they had so many banners.
When they arrived at the suburban factory in Shangdu City, the two drivers explained to the handover workers.
When the workers at the suburban factory learned about their wonderful journey, they didn't believe it at first, thinking they were bragging, until they took out the banner and repeatedly confirmed that it was true.
The workers looked at Master Chen and Master Zhao differently. The two drivers did not dare to take all the credit for themselves and said that it was all thanks to the help of Comrade Ye and Comrade Han.
Seeing that they turned their attention to Comrade Han, they also emphasized Comrade Ye's contributions.
"Comrade Ye?"
Sure enough, if you hadn't witnessed Ye Yu's "great achievements" with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine that this beautiful female educated youth with thin arms and legs could actually kill nearly a hundred bandits.
The most important thing is that after rushing for so many days, even Han Jing, like Master Chen and Master Zhao, was very messy, but Ye Yu was clean and tidy. Not to mention the blue work clothes, even his rubber shoes were not stained with mud.
Her face and hands were still clean and white, and there was no sign of fatigue in her eyes. People would believe that she was a female student who was just going to school in the morning. She didn't look like someone who had been rushing for three days and three nights.
Who would believe that such a person could really beat up so many bandits? The police officers in blue uniforms did not believe it and divided the credit equally among the four of them.
The workers in the suburbs didn't believe it either, thinking they were exaggerating.
Ye Yu didn't care whether they believed it or not, as long as she could get a good deal. For example, she and Han Jing had lunch at the factory again. Knowing that they had worked hard after a long journey, it wouldn't be strange to buy all the leftovers, right?
The cafeteria auntie he met had a daughter who was about the same age as Ye Yu and had also gone to the countryside. Seeing her was like seeing his own daughter. He put himself in her shoes and felt that Ye Yu had suffered a lot in the countryside. He secretly cooked some more steamed buns and an extra bucket of vegetable soup for them.
After lunch, Ye Yu and Han Jing went to the agricultural and sideline products station.
Because the two of them had gained a lot of favor with the two drivers and out of trust in them, they successfully borrowed the truck after it was unloaded.
There is no doubt that Ye Yu prefers to sit in the driver's seat rather than the passenger seat.
What's more, a car with four wheels is really different from another car with four wheels. A beginner like Han Jing is not suitable for driving. If he hits a tree or a wall, the car will at most be scrapped, but if he hits someone, it will be a definite car accident. In the 1960s, he would probably be famous all over the country.
Under the workers' astonished gazes, Ye Yu sat in the driver's seat, started the vehicle skillfully, and drove the truck away, leaving behind puffs of exhaust fumes.
"???"
"!!!"
At this moment, they finally believed a little that Ye Yu was the main force in fighting against the bandits. The female driver who was driving the car was the first one they saw in their lives.
"Do you believe it? Do you believe this?"
Master Zhao looked like a master behind the scenes who should have done this a long time ago, and when Master Chen saw that Ye Yu was not there, he finally relaxed and opened the flower box. He grabbed someone at random on the way and told him all about their great achievements along the way.
Because the language was overly exaggerated, people strongly suspected that it was an adaptation of Journey to the West, which made the workers, who had just begun to believe it, even more suspicious. However, they still enjoyed the story.
