"Second brother, it seems like the wheel and tire were sent incorrectly. They won't fit! There's a huge gap. We tried, but it won't fit!"
Comrade Lao Du said to Du Chen.
"Come on, Dad, take me there first!"
Du Chen had a rough idea of what went wrong.
"Alright, let's go. I'll take you there. You won't give up until you see the Yellow River!"
Comrade Lao Du muttered something.
"Xiaomi, go drive a car back first, and then find a way to come back later, otherwise we won't be able to drive away! I'll wait here for a while!"
Seeing that there was nothing to do at the moment, Li Dewen directly sent Xiami to deliver the car first and come back to drive it later, so that there would be just one car for each person.
"Okay, then I'll send it to the office first!"
Xiami said to Li Dewen helplessly that he also wanted to stay here and take a look, but since he was the younger brother, he had no say.
"Hey, Xiao Xia, where are you going?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Li Dewen with some doubts.
"Brother Du, I'll ask him to send a car back first, otherwise we won't be able to drive away later! I'll stay here to join in the fun, Brother Du, you won't be unwelcome, right?"
Li Dewen said to Comrade Lao Du with a smile.
"Hahaha, how could that be? You can come whenever you want and stay as long as you want!"
Comrade Lao Du laughed heartily.
"Second brother, look, this is the wheel and tire we ordered!"
Comrade Lao Du took out a wheel and tire and showed them to Du Chen.
Du Chen squatted on the ground and carefully looked at the model of the wheel and the tire, confirming that the two were matching items, so Du Chen said to Comrade Lao Du.
"Dad, let the repairman move it out and I'll show them how to install it!"
Du Chen said confidently that there would be no problem and he would take care of it.
"Can it really be installed? We've been trying to install it for a long time and it still doesn't work. The tire won't hold up at all!"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen in confusion.
"Dad, you see, the wheel model is 18 inches, and the tire is also 18, which means the wheel and tire were sent correctly. It's just that this AT tire is relatively hard and has a large rim, so it's really not easy to install! But there is a trick. You can call the mechanic over and I'll show them how to install it!"
Du Chen gave Comrade Lao Du a brief explanation.
Comrade Lao Du left the office to call the repairman, and Du Chen took the opportunity to speak to Li Dewen.
"Brother Li, I told my dad I'd lend you 20,000 yuan if you opened a roller skating rink. The interest is 2,000 yuan for two months! Remember this, don't let it get out!"
"Okay, I got it!"
Li Dewen said to Du Chen with some amusement that most children would want the whole world to know about their small achievements, but Du Chen kept it secret for fear that his parents would find out.
Du Chen and Li Dewen had just finished their conversation when Lao Du and a few other mechanics came into the office and started moving the wheels and tires. Du Chen followed closely behind, and the group of people came to the tire changing machine.
"Come on, second brother, how do you do it?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen.
"Brother Wang, install the tire on the wheel first!"
Du Chen instructed the repairman on how to proceed.
Mechanic Master Wang skillfully installed the tire on the wheel hub, then looked at Du Chen.
"Chenchen, look at the huge gap here. It leaked when I pumped the air in, and it can't hold the wheel hub up at all!"
Repairman Master Wang pointed at the gap and spoke to Du Chen with some dissatisfaction.
"Dad, get me a bottle of carburetor cleaner and a lighter!"
Du Chen ignored him and spoke to Comrade Lao Du instead. A young apprentice next to Comrade Lao Du cleverly ran over, took out a bottle of carburetor cleaner and handed it to Du Chen, and also took out a lighter from his pocket and handed it to him.
"Brother Wang, when I ask you to cheer me up, you cheer me up!"
Du Chen said to the repairman Master Wang.
"Um."
The other party said "hmm" to Du Chen.
Du Chen first adjusted the position of the tire so that the lower part fit the wheel hub, and then sprayed a circle of carburetor cleaner on the upper rim of the tire.
A group of people looked at Du Chen's actions curiously, not knowing what he was going to do. Du Chen ignored their gazes, took out a lighter and directly ignited the carburetor cleaner, while speaking to the repairman, Master Wang.
“Come on!”
A group of people stared at the flames on the tire in amazement. On the other side, Master Wang felt anxious, but he did not forget what he was doing. He pressed the air gun to inflate the tire.
Within two seconds, there was a "bang" sound, and the tire fit tightly to the wheel hub. The onlookers were shocked, and the mechanic Master Wang was so scared that he threw away the air gun and ran away.
Du Chen looked at the embarrassed Master Wang and smiled in his heart. Since he had the courage to question him, he must be prepared to be scared!
Seeing that there was still a small flame on the tire, Du Chen picked up the oilcloth next to him and stepped forward to extinguish the small flame.
"Brother Wang, it's okay, keep cheering!"
Du Chen said to Master Wang.
"Oh...oh, okay!"
Master Wang returned to the tire in disappointment and continued pumping air into it.
"Chenchen, is this ready?"
Comrade Lao Du asked Du Chen in disbelief.
"Yeah, that's it. Once it's inflated, you can install it on the car! The same method applies to the other wheels!"
Du Chen said to Comrade Lao Du with a smile.
"Where did you learn this weird method..."
Comrade Lao Du muttered to himself that more than a dozen repairmen in the entire repair shop were helpless, but his own boy came up and installed it immediately, which made Comrade Lao Du feel very embarrassed.
"Hey, it's nothing, just a small problem!"
Du Chen waved his hand pretentiously and said to Comrade Lao Du. Comrade Lao Du glanced at Du Chen, curled his lips and didn't want to say anything.
With Du Chen's demonstration, the remaining three tires were quickly installed. A mechanic rolled a wheel towards Liu Yuying's Patrol. Soon, all four wheels were installed, and the modified Patrol was parked quietly in front of everyone.
Comrade Lao Du was instantly attracted by the Patrol in front of him. Although he also had a Patrol, when compared with Liu Yuying's, he felt that his car was much less imposing.
"Dad, let's drive outside and park next to your car to compare!"
Du Chen looked at the Patrol in front of him and nodded with satisfaction. He was in charge of the entire car modification plan himself. Now seeing his plan presented in front of him, Du Chen felt extremely satisfied.
Comrade Lao Du didn't say anything, he got into the car and started it. With a "buzz" sound, the old silicone oil fan started to rotate as the car started. Du Chen and Li Dewen couldn't help grinning when they heard the movement of the silicone oil fan. Men who love cars like to hear this sound.
"Fuck, Du Chen, this is the car a man should drive!"
Li Dewen looked at the modified Patrol in front of him with shining eyes.
