Jiang Dashi finally passed the assessment before the event. When He Chuan arrived, Jiang Dashi had just packed a large bag of luggage, which was much more than the luggage he brought during previous training. It seemed that he had made preparations for the long journey.
"Let's go." He Chuan nodded to Dashi. Their eyes met, and there was excitement and passion in their eyes.
This was their first official delivery trip and also the beginning of their business.
It was already afternoon when the two returned to the transport team. After putting their things away, they first went to the master's office.
"Are you all ready?" Zhang Weiye asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Well, everything is packed."
"Check the car carefully again tonight to see if there are any problems. Bring all the tools for repairing the car and check if you have everything. Is there any tool missing that you didn't ask the mechanic for?" Zhang Weiye repeated the instructions over and over again like an old father.
They're not just drivers when delivering goods; they also provide repairs. It's common for their vehicles to break down en route, requiring them to repair the problem themselves. If they don't have all the necessary tools and spare parts, and their vehicle breaks down, it's fine on a main road or in a populated area. But in the mountains or other sparsely populated areas, it's incredibly frustrating. Are they going to get there on foot? What about the vehicle? What about the goods? Some of their students have experienced this before.
"Yes, Master, we will go check it out later." Hechuan and Dashi answered seriously.
"Go ahead. I've taught you everything I need to teach you. You'll encounter all kinds of problems in actual racing. You need to learn to adapt to circumstances and be flexible." Zhang Weiye waved his hand to signal them that they could go and prepare.
"Then master, you should rest early. We will go to check the car." Hechuan and Dashi turned around and went out, closing the door gently.
Hechuan and Oishi will check the car inside and out tomorrow and tighten all the visible screws. Otherwise, it will be dangerous if the screws are loose after driving on the road. They will go back to rest only after confirming that there are no problems.
At night, the two of them lay in bed, unable to sleep. Thinking about the car they would drive tomorrow, the news they would receive, and where to buy goods in Shanghai, all kinds of emotions kept turning in their minds...
The next morning, they woke up early, washed, and loaded their belongings into the car. The car was already loaded with building materials for transport, packed in wooden boxes, covered with a whole piece of waterproof cloth, and tied with ropes to prevent it from sliding.
It was freezing cold, and it would take about half an hour to get the car started. He Chuan was in the cab, adjusting the car, while Jiang Dashi was at the front, cranking the handle repeatedly and rapidly, trying to start the car. Jiang Dashi cranked for over ten minutes, but the car still didn't start. He Chuan finished adjusting the car, got out and replaced Jiang Dashi, and after another ten minutes of cranking, the car finally started.
The two of them quickly got in the car and started it, otherwise it would stall again due to lack of power after a while.
He Chuan drove first, while Jiang Dashi sat in the passenger seat, looking at a map. This car didn't have a navigation system, so they relied entirely on the map. Maps for frequently visited areas and routes were generally reliable. On less frequently visited routes, due to inaccurate maps or changes over time, they often ended up driving into remote mountain areas.
He Chuan and Jiang Dashi took turns driving. He Chuan drove in the morning, took a break for lunch, and then Jiang Dashi took over in the afternoon. At night, if the road conditions were good, they would take turns driving, one driving while the other rested, and then switch again. If the conditions were not bad, such as on a dark mountain road, they would park the truck overnight, taking turns resting and guarding the cargo, and then continue on their journey at dawn.
