After Gu Wei finished handling the plastic film matter, he asked Qiao Xinghai for help again.
Qiao Xinghai not only agreed immediately, but also told him some good news.
"I've finally got the letter of introduction sorted out. You can now register your driving lessons with our company."
Gu Wei was very satisfied with Qiao Xinghai's speed in handling matters; he had originally thought he would have to wait a little longer.
After all, there are limited spots available for driving lessons right now, so the competition is fierce as there are more wolves than sheep.
Furthermore, you need to undergo an identity verification and pass a political background check before you can apply for a driver's license test.
In addition, a letter of introduction from your employer is required to take the driving test. Without a formal job, you cannot take the driving test on your own.
It wasn't until the mid-to-late 1980s that the country gradually relaxed the restrictions, allowing individuals to apply for driver's licenses in their own name.
Gu Wei knows his own situation. If he doesn't find a way out, he'll have no choice but to drive without a license.
Therefore, even though Gu Wei spent money, he was very grateful to Qiao Xinghai. "Dahai, thank you so much. You've worked so hard running around for this."
Qiao Xinghai quickly smiled and said, "With our relationship, there's no need to be so polite. We're going to the city anyway, so I'll accompany you to the vehicle inspection office first, and then we'll go pick up the things."
"Can."
Gu Wei knew about this vehicle inspection station; it was now a unit under the Transportation Bureau.
People who want to take the driving test should bring a letter of introduction to get a registration form, find an experienced driver from their workplace with more than three years of driving experience to act as their instructor and sign it, get their workplace stamp their approval, and receive two booklets to study on their own. They can then apply for the test six months later.
The two booklets are "Traffic Rules" and "General Mechanical Knowledge".
Gu Wei has recently been studying the materials that Yu Jun gave him.
As for the driving test, there is a theory test, which is the same as the modern theory test (Subject 1).
However, there were no computers at that time, so all the questions were answered by hand.
The second is the parking test, and the third is the road test, which are equivalent to the modern driving test (subject 3).
A Jiefang truck sped along the narrow road.
Gu Wei admired the fleeting winter scenery outside the car window while chatting casually with Qiao Xinghai.
The topic quickly shifted to vegetable greenhouses.
Qiao Xinghai said with some helplessness, "Didn't I tell you the other day that I wanted to ask our relatives back home if we should do this? But one by one, they either said they wanted to hibernate and didn't want to do anything, or they were afraid of losing money and dared not do it... But my wife was a little tempted when she heard this."
Gu Wei turned his gaze to Qiao Xinghai, who was gripping the steering wheel and driving. "Actually, their thoughts are quite normal. First of all, they haven't seen anyone else do it, so they're unsure. Also, the initial investment is quite large, and whether they can make money is unknown. If your family wants to give it a try, my friend just happened to send over a lot of plastic film, so I'll give you some to take back."
"I'm so sorry." Qiao Xinghai was excited at first, but then he felt a little embarrassed. After all, plastic film is a good thing. Even if you have money, you can't get too much of it. In the end, it can be sold for money even as waste.
Gu Wei smiled and said, "Look, you told me not to be polite with you, but you're the one being polite first. Thanks to your help, the driver's license thing has progressed so quickly. This little thing is nothing."
Qiao Xinghai could tell that Gu Wei was genuinely offering it for free, and he did want it too, so he stopped being coy.
"Okay, then I'll accept it."
Gu Wei smiled approvingly, "That's right."
The atmosphere of their conversation afterwards became more relaxed and pleasant.
Once they arrived at the vehicle inspection office, they completed the process smoothly from the moment they entered until they came out.
Then, I went to the old house in the city to get more plastic film...
In Zhao Dajiang's yard, a wooden frame has already been erected.
Zhao Dajiang was working with his son and third son-in-law, hammering and tinkering.
Once all of this is done, everything will be ready except for the final push.
And this favorable wind arrived quickly.
Upon hearing the sound of a car, Zhao Dajiang and Zhao Zhengyuan dropped their tools and hurriedly ran outside.
Gu Wei got out of the passenger seat and saw several people smiling broadly, warmly welcoming them.
Qiao Xinghai had helped Zhao Dajiang and his group transport vegetables, move houses, and drink with them; they were old acquaintances.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, everyone began to open the truck bed and unload the cargo.
When I saw the quality of the plastic film, it was so different from anything I had seen before; it was so much better.
Zhao Dajiang and the others felt an even greater sense of admiration and gratitude towards Gu Wei.
They originally said the price would be higher than the market price.
But no one believes that such high-quality plastic film can be bought for such a small amount of money.
Ultimately, it's still a form of helping their family in disguise.
After entering the house, Gu Wei sat on a wooden bench by the window, holding a slightly hot teacup to warm his hands.
Zhao Dajiang, who had been hesitant to speak for a while, finally couldn't help but say, "Gu Wei, Uncle Zhao's family is rich now. They've not only made a lot of money selling vegetables, but Yuanzi is also making money, and your Aunt Zhao's tailor shop is earning a lot every day!"
Please, please don't spend any more money, especially on those companies in the forestry farm... Tell me the truth, how much did this plastic sheeting actually cost?
Gu Wei had long anticipated that this might happen.
But when it actually happened, I felt a mix of amusement and a deep sense of comfort.
He knew Zhao Dajiang as a person, and that hadn't changed in the past or present.
"Uncle Zhao, of course I know your family is doing well now and has money. Don't worry, this plastic film is from a supplier my friend got from the factory. The price I quoted you included shipping."
"real?"
Zhao Dajiang looked incredulous. He had been farming for many years; how could he not know the price and quality of plastic film?
