Chapter 101 The car was moving as slowly as a snail.



Jiang Tiecheng originally intended to go directly back to the Hongqi Brigade, but unfortunately, he turned back when he reached the county town intersection.

The road is completely blocked.

Several days of snow have made this road completely impassable.

Road construction was already lagging behind, not to mention there was no effective way to clear snow after the heavy snow blocked the roads.

Jiang Tiecheng thought for a moment and realized that the only person he could turn to in the county was probably Xu Fengtian.

Without saying a word, I went straight to the supply and marketing cooperative, only to find three large trucks parked there when I arrived at the entrance.

Xu Fengtian was shaking hands and talking with several people.

After Xu Fengtian finished speaking with those people, Jiang Tiecheng hurriedly shouted.

"Section Chief Xu!"

"Xiao Jiang, what's up?"

Xu Fengtian was a little surprised. He greeted a few people and hurriedly ran over to Jiang Tiecheng.

"Section Chief Xu."

The family of the man at the hospital has been found.

I can't go back to the production team either, so I was hoping you could find me a place to stay for the night. If the road is passable tomorrow, I'll go back to the brigade.

"This is easy to handle. What's the big deal? You can just come and stay at my place. Why would you need to squeeze in somewhere else?"

Xu Fengtian had finally managed to get this minister to come to his home, and he couldn't wait to keep him there.

He glanced at the car again, feeling a bit awkward. He was supposed to personally take Jiang Tiecheng home right now.

"Otherwise, I'll give you the address, and you can go there yourself. My wife will be getting off work soon."

You should be at home. Just tell her you'll be able to come over.

It's not that I don't want to take you there.

You don't know that the recent snow has cut off our supplies. The supply and marketing cooperative is now facing a critical shortage of vegetables, grains, meat, and eggs.

The supplies are so scarce that they are impossible to buy. The county has now sent three vehicles to pick up the supplies.

No matter what, we have to bring the supplies back despite the wind and snow. We can't let the people of this county all complain.

I'm in charge. It's one thing for someone else to skip, but I can't skip it.

"Section Chief Xu, then I'll go with you."

Anyway, I don't have anything else to do.

"It'll be good if I can lend a hand. I'm strong, so moving things around won't be a problem."

Jiang Tiecheng certainly couldn't go to the Xu family alone.

It would be inappropriate to cause a misunderstanding.

"You've been working hard for two days. Why don't you go back and rest? You don't know when you'll be back."

Xu Fengtian hesitated, fearing that Jiang Tiecheng would suffer along with him.

This is no easy job; you'll be freezing on the road with no food or water.

"It's alright, I'll go with you and broaden my horizons."

After Jiang Tiecheng said that, Xu Fengtian no longer refused and directly pulled Jiang Tiecheng into the passenger seat of the first truck in front.

These large trucks typically have six seats.

There are two rows of space in front.

One row is for the driver and front passenger, and the other row is for the back seats.

That is, long-distance transport trucks.

The driver was wearing a uniform, and you could tell at a glance that he was a soldier.

Jiang Tiecheng consciously sat in the back seat.

The back row is very spacious, and three people can sit in it at once. Even lying down there is very comfortable.

Soon the car started and the group set off in a grand procession.

However, the car at this time had not been treated with any anti-slip measures, and the driver was driving entirely on his own skill.

The car was driven very slowly, and very cautiously.

Xu Fengtian cursed as he looked at the car's speed.

"Damn it, when are we going to get to the supply depot?"

The young driver was also quite helpless.

"Section Chief Xu, we can only drive at this speed to ensure safety. If we go any faster, the wheels might slip and we'll all end up in the ditch next to us."

Their ability to travel in the snow is entirely due to their superior skills, but even tigers have their moments of weakness, let alone ordinary people like them.

This speed is also frustrating.

It's only a few steps faster than walking.

Jiang Tiecheng glanced at the speed and his face darkened.

At this rate, they don't know when they'll get there, let alone return tomorrow. The round trip could take two days.

I thought about it for a moment, even though I didn't know much about tire anti-skid.

After all, this involves some professional aspects.

But he had seen the earliest methods of preventing vehicles from slipping a long time ago.

"Section Chief Xu, I do have a way to speed up a car. I just don't know if I should say it."

Xu Fengtian hurriedly turned around.

"What? Tell me your plan."

At this point, it's a desperate measure.

The young driver couldn't help but pout, realizing that all his years of driving experience had been his only strength.

Everyone knows that driving is all about skill, and I've never heard of any way to make a car speed up in snowy weather.

This person is really unreliable.

Jiang Tiecheng thought for a moment.

"Section Chief Xu, let's find a hardware processing factory."

Xu Fengtian hesitated for a moment; the car was moving slower than a person could walk.

Anyway, getting to the hardware processing plant won't take much time; it's just a short distance.

"Go! Turn the corner."

The driver frowned.

"Section Chief Xu, we're already moving slowly enough. If we get delayed at the hardware processing plant, it'll be even later."

"It's late, but it won't make a difference if we take a turn a little later."

The car quickly turned into the hardware processing plant.

There is a hardware sales department outside the factory that specializes in selling hardware processing products.
