"Do we need our team to find them a place to live?"
"No need, Captain, I have already made an appointment with Sun Zhiqing. They usually live in the Zhiqing site. You don't have to worry about anything else." Qin Zheng still let Li Yun come to watch over it this time.
Firstly, he is already familiar with this brigade, and secondly, I trust him more.
Let him find another person, two people should be enough.
"That's fine. I'll greet the villagers and won't let them cause any trouble." These days, it's really not the time to go wherever you want.
When people of Li Yun's age appear in the village, they must be greeted in advance.
If you are mistaken for a vagrant and driven away, you will end up making things worse.
"Captain, we'll be leaving now. I left some money for the factory, which should be enough for the recent expenses. If it's not enough, please talk to the villagers and I'll make up for it when I come back."
Ruan Mianmian felt a bit like an old mother, always feeling like there were things that had not been explained.
"Okay! I understand. Go ahead. The sooner you go, the sooner you can return!"
Qin Zheng rode his bicycle and took Ruan Mianmian to the county town.
Both of their luggage were very simple, a green luggage bag each.
Ruan Mianmian felt that it was normal for her to have less luggage, since she had enough space to carry it with her.
Her luggage was just a cover. All the important things were in her space.
But why did Qin Zheng have so few things? Looking at what was in the luggage bag, it looked like there were only two sets of clothes at most.
However, Qin Zheng didn't ask her anything, so she naturally wouldn't ask him. This is called mutual respect.
The bicycle stopped at the gate of the yard where they had rested in the county town before.
Qin Zheng asked Ruan Mianmian to go in and rest while he went to find someone to get the tickets.
This time, Ruan Mianmian still wanted to go south, but not to Yangcheng. This time she wanted to go to Pengcheng.
Pengcheng is still a small fishing village today.
The great leader has not yet drawn that circle on the South China Sea.
Ruan Mianmian felt that a city like Pengcheng should give her the opportunity to pick up bargains.
Qin Zheng didn't say a word against her decision.
He also took care of the ticket purchase.
Thinking of the connections behind Qin Zheng, Ruan Mianmian readily agreed.
If she went to buy the ticket herself, the most she could buy was a hard seat ticket.
Ruan Mianmian didn't have to wait long, only about an hour, and Qin Zheng came back.
But looking at the sleeper ticket to Haishi in her hand, Ruan Mianmian was confused for a moment. Didn't we agree to go to Pengcheng? Why did we buy a ticket to Haishi?
These are not in the same direction.
"I bought a ticket from Haishi to Yangcheng this time. Let's go to Haishi first, then take a plane to Yangcheng, and then transfer to Pengcheng." Qin Zheng didn't want to spend most of his time on the journey, this was the fastest way he could think of. It was just a bit of a hassle, and he had to go back and forth several times.
Unlike decades later, it is very convenient to go anywhere now. Even if you drive yourself, there are very smooth roads to take.
The safest and most feasible way to travel is by train, which is the choice of most people. Moreover, most trains are slow trains, and even ordinary express trains are rare. Express trains are even rarer.
Train fares are often charged by the day, unlike today's high-speed trains, where most trips between cities are charged by the minute.
For some nearby cities, as long as you have money and time, you can even buy a high-speed rail ticket in the morning and go to another city for breakfast. (Two adjacent provincial capitals can be reached within an hour by high-speed rail)
There are airplanes, but there are very few flights. There are not many places to fly. Most of them are used by public officials for work. Or foreign guests in China, like Mrs. Susan and Mrs. Wilson.
As for taking the road or car, it is still a relatively dangerous thing at present.
There are few roads and the road conditions are not good. Many places are even dirt roads.
The most important point is that at this time, there are a lot of people stopping the car.
You can’t drive long distances just because you want to.
If someone stops you on the way and steals your money, that's a minor issue. In worse cases, you could even lose your life.
Being a truck driver nowadays is indeed a job that can earn money, but it is also a high-risk job.
If the entire convoy was not together, it would take at least two strong men to drive a single car out.
So, at the beginning, Qin Zheng rejected the idea of driving this road by himself.
He himself didn't care, but he couldn't put A'ruan in danger.
Hearing that Qin Zheng had already arranged the route, Ruan Mianmian had no objection.
"The evening train?" Ruan Mianmian looked at the time on the ticket. It was still several hours away. It was enough time for them to rest before going to the train station.
"Well, it's a good time to get some sleep on the bus tonight. We can arrive tomorrow by sitting for another day." This bus is just in time. If they come tomorrow, it will be an early morning bus, and they will have to sit until midnight the next day. That would be too much trouble.
Ah Ruan hasn't had a good rest recently. It's better to rest more if possible.
Thanks to Qin Zheng's arrangements, Ruan Mianmian had a very smooth journey.
He had made all the arrangements that required attention.
And strangely enough, there were only two of them in the six berths in their small space.
So, this time she slept particularly soundly on the train, without anyone disturbing her by moving up and down the bunk.
The train was still rattling and shaking, and it was really nice to sleep on it.
It was past dinner time when they arrived at Haishi. After leaving the train station, Qin Zheng took her to an old-style house in a familiar manner.
Looking at the house in front of her, Ruan Mianmian complained in her heart, could this also be his house? !
Thinking of this, Ruan Mianmian turned her head to look at Qin Zheng, her eyes full of questions.
"Let's go, let's go in." Qin Zheng was very calm.
As he said that, he knocked on the door.
"Coming." Soon, a cheerful female voice came from inside the door.
The accent is very typical Wu dialect.
Ruan Mianmian had heard it before, but didn't quite understand it.
Soon, the door of the villa opened, and a older sister dressed very simply appeared inside.
Although the elder sister was dressed simply, in the kind of blue cloth jacket that is common nowadays, her facial features were very delicate. She was so soft and beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off the woman from the south of the Yangtze River.
Ruan Mianmian couldn't tell how old she was from her face. She could only intuitively feel that she was an older sister.
"Sister Wang, long time no see." Qin Zheng was the first to say hello.
