Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

Riding a bicycle into the transport team, Gu Mingnan greeted the old man at the gate familiarly, pushed the car into the shed and parked it, and then turned around and entered the administrative building.

Usually when going to work, Gu Mingnan would go directly to the cafeteria to have a breakfast, and then he would go directly to drive.

But on this day, he didn't rush to get into the cart, instead he entered the administrative building.

The administrative building of the transport team is just a small two-story house, and the offices above are where the transport team cadres work, and the drivers rarely come in.

"Anan is here?"

"It's really early."

"You have to cheer up today and fight for our transport team."

"Anan, we are optimistic about you, come on."

Along the way, every driver who met Gu Mingnan greeted him one after another, and Gu Mingnan also greeted them back one by one, which shows that his popularity in the transportation team is indeed good.

Soon, Gu Mingnan arrived at the door of an office on the second floor. He was rarely nervous, so he stretched out his hand to straighten his clothes and hair, and then took a deep breath and knocked on the door: "Captain, are you there?"

"Come in." The voice of Zhang Hongjun, the leader of the transportation team, came from inside.

Gu Mingnan immediately pushed the door open and went in, he smiled first when he saw someone, and gave a military salute with an air of appearance: "Report to the captain, the transportation team Gu Mingnan is here to report."

Seeing his vigorous appearance, Captain Zhang liked him from the bottom of his heart, shook his head and said, "Okay, I don't know your temper yet, why are you pretending to be obedient in front of me?"

Gu Mingnan said with a smile: "The captain is willing to promote me, so I have to perform well."

Hearing this, Captain Zhang asked seriously: "Comrade Gu Mingnan, are you sure you are ready?"

Without waiting for Gu Mingnan to answer, he hinted: "If you fail the assessment this time, it will be difficult for us to mention it next time. If you feel that you are not ready, you can postpone it."

Gu Mingnan held his head high and held his chest high: "Report to the captain, I'm already prepared, and I will definitely not let the captain down."

Captain Zhang was a soldier, and he liked Gu Mingnan's fearlessness the most. He got up and patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Good job, let's go."

The two walked out together, and met Master Qian on the way.

Master Qian didn't dare to say anything, he just made a cheering gesture to Gu Mingnan.

When the two left on their bicycles one after the other, the drivers chattered away.

Someone couldn't help asking Master Qian: "Old Qian, do you think this can be done?"

Master Qian was also concerned about this matter, but after listening to it, he only said: "How do I know that, if something can be decided in our team, I can rely on being an old driver to help him talk, but it doesn't count if we talk about it." , what the captain says doesn’t count.”

The person next to him clicked his tongue twice, and said, "Regardless of whether it can be done or not, Anan has the ability to do it himself, and secretly learned a lot about car repairing skills."

"Old Qian, if Anan can really pass the exam, then he will be a repairman, and his salary will be more than ours."

"A first-level worker in an auto repair shop gets 30 yuan a month, right?"

"Old Qian, you are so lucky, what a good boy you took down first."

Master Qian was quite proud in his heart, and felt that it was the right decision to match his daughter with Gu Mingnan, but he said face-to-face: "It's not sure yet, don't talk about it, if it doesn't happen, the young people will lose face."

"If it doesn't work, how can the captain spend so much effort to send him there?" The other drivers all felt that it would be possible.

On the other side, Gu Mingnan followed Captain Zhang all the way to the main factory of the transportation company.

Before Gu Mingnan joined the transportation team, he always thought that the transportation team in the town, like the surrounding textile factories and biscuit factories, were independent factories.

It was only after entering that I realized that this was not the case.

The transportation team of Xiyuan Town belongs to the Daishan City Transportation Company, which is a general automobile transportation company directly under the management of the Ministry of Communications.

And this Daishan City Motor Transportation Corporation is divided into three major factories: passenger transportation, freight transportation and auto repair factory. The first two are in charge of passenger transportation and freight transportation respectively. Managed by the head office.

In Daishan City alone, there are 12 convoys for passenger transport and 34 convoys for freight transport. There are thousands of large trucks in total, which made Gu Mingnan dumbfounded.

Captain Zhang was surprised when he saw him, so he just said: "This is where it is. Our Daishan City is too small, and there are only so many sums in total. If it is changed to a big place, a convoy can have so many."

"There are so many in one convoy?" Gu Mingnan's eyes widened in surprise, and he felt like a frog in a well for a moment.

Their transportation team has twelve trains and twenty people, Gu Mingnan already feels that is a lot.

There are many passenger and cargo teams, all over Daishan City, but there is only one auto repair shop. It is impossible to open an auto repair shop for every place.

As a result, once the car breaks down, the fleets from all over the country have to ask the headquarters for help, and let the auto repair shop send special repairmen to help.

For larger fleets, the main factory usually sends repairmen to stay there for a long time to avoid emergencies.

In a small place like Xiyuan Town, there is only one freight team and no passenger transport team. The passenger transport team from Changhe County next door even ran around, so naturally there is no professional auto repairman.

Usually when the truck breaks down, the drivers have to start repairing it themselves. Masters like Master Qian usually have some skills in repairing cars. If there is really no way to report it to the superior, I don’t know about it. How much work was wasted.

Captain Zhang was very dissatisfied with this situation, and ran to the main factory again and again, but it was a pity that the repairman was a technical job, and it was not easy to train one. When there were too many monks and too little food, it would be no wonder that Xiyuan Town could take his turn.

Last time, a truck in the transportation team broke down. After waiting for half a year, the repairman in Changhe County next door finally became available and invited someone over to fix it.

At that time, Gu Mingnan was busy studying with him, and he was following this repairman.

People only thought that Gu Mingnan was planning to learn more, so as not to have to ask for help when encountering problems, but they didn't know that Gu Mingnan's idea was to be a repairman.

As a result, after studying for a while, Gu Mingnan knew that it would be even more difficult for him to be promoted to a first-level worker by repairing cars. Although they all belonged directly to the transportation company, their establishments were fundamentally different.

When he heard the news, Gu Mingnan was not discouraged, and almost gave up on continuing to study.

However, Gu Mingdong saw an opportunity from his younger brother's words: "Anan, think about it, now that the transportation team is so troublesome to repair the car, your captain is the one who most hopes to have a repairman in the team."

"But the captain can't give me a raise." Gu Mingnan only wanted the salary wholeheartedly.

Gu Mingdong said, "It's true that he can't, but he can take you to the head office and have a chance with the leaders above."

At that time, Gu Mingnan was confused and didn't know what chance he would have, but now he understands.

Ever since he knew that Gu Mingnan could repair cars, and even his repair skills were pretty good, Captain Zhang paid special attention to him.

At the beginning, he thought about letting Gu Mingnan hold two roles, but this would be a wrong for the team members, and it would definitely not work in the long run.

Recently, Captain Zhang finally made up his mind, intending to justify Gu Mingnan's name and find a position with better benefits.

Captain Zhang took his team members and stood in front of the leader of the head office, spitting all over the place: "Leader, you said earlier that there are not enough people in the auto repair factory, and it is not easy to train them. For the time being, we can't arrange special personnel for our transportation team." Repairman."

"Then I've brought people who can do it now, so you can't shirk it anymore, can you?"

The leader felt a headache when he saw Captain Zhang, and looked at the young Gu Mingnan whose face was written all over his face, and felt that this captain was unreliable: "Old Zhang, it's not that I won't help you, I thought you found it from somewhere." Master, you ended up bringing a child over here."

"You know how difficult it is to get into an auto repair shop. It takes three to five years for formally recruited apprentices to get started, and it will take a few years before they can be rated as first-level workers. You are lucky, let him go to the first class at once." grade worker."

Captain Zhang patted his chest and said, "That's because they can't do it. Comrade Gu Mingnan is smart and studious. He is self-taught."

The leader looked speechless: "Is auto repair a profession that can be self-taught?"

He has never heard of anyone who can learn auto repair by himself, let alone self-study, many apprentices have been learning from the master for several years, but they still dare not get started.

Seeing that he was going to repent, Captain Zhang hurriedly said: "Leader, you said before that as long as I can find a suitable person, you will give the transportation team in Xiyuan Town a place as a repairman. You can't just say nothing, right?" ?”

The leader patted the table: "Is what we two said the same thing?"

Seeing that the two of them were about to quarrel, Gu Mingnan took a step forward and said, "Boss, I know I'm too young to be trusted, but I can tell when I get started with auto repair."

Captain Zhang hurriedly said: "Yes, yes, it's a mule or a horse, let's take it out for a walk."

The leader frowned, but if he disagreed, Captain Zhang would have to make trouble for him, so he got up and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look."

"But let's talk about it first. If you don't meet the standard, no matter how difficult it is for your Xiyuan Town, you have to wait according to the rules in the future. You can't come to me again."

Captain Zhang readily agreed, and it seemed that he was full of confidence in Gu Mingnan.

Seeing his confident posture, the leader became a little strange, wondering if Gu Mingnan really had this ability.

When we arrived at the place, the leader couldn't help but pulled Captain Zhang and asked, "Old Zhang, do you really want to try? If it doesn't work, you will lose face."

Captain Zhang poked his neck and said, "You don't know me yet, can I bring someone to you if I'm not sure?"

The leader thought about it. The two of them had been comrades-in-arms for many years, and after returning to work, they were assigned to a place and became subordinates. If it weren't for this reason, Captain Zhang, a small team leader in Xiyuan Town, would be able to speak loudly in front of him. ?

The leader thought that since Captain Zhang wanted to try, let him try, and if he failed, he would completely give up.

If it really works, this kid was originally a member of the transportation team, so it would not be troublesome to transfer from the transportation team to the auto repair shop.

If he stopped him, Captain Zhang would blame him for not being sad, and go to his office every day to make trouble. Hey, after all, there are too few people who are really useful in the repair shop in Daishan City.

Gu Mingnan didn't know what the leader was thinking, he was bound to win the transfer of establishment.

People from the auto repair shop heard the news and came to watch the excitement.

Seeing that Gu Mingnan's face was tender, he didn't know if he was an adult or not, so he immediately took on the posture of watching the show.

"What does Captain Zhang think? Bringing such a kid here, isn't it just a joke to delay the big guy's effort?"

"Old Liu, you have been to Xiyuan Town before, do you recognize this young man?"

Old Liu was the repairman who had been seconded before. He looked at it and said, "Isn't this the driver of the transport team? He has only been working for two years. When I was here, he liked to come and see me repairing cars."

Hearing that he is a rookie who has only been in the transportation team for two years. He has only seen Master Liu repairing cars, and other people are not optimistic.

The captain of the auto repair team was not happy either, and shouted loudly: "Leader, you can't just let Captain Zhang do whatever they want just because they are comrades-in-arms. What if the car is damaged?"

Before the leader could speak, Captain Zhang was not happy: "What do you mean by that? Why is your auto repair shop always unable to spare manpower? You just know that we should wait and wait. You are not responsible for the time wasted in the emotional waiting process." Yes or no?"

The more captain Zhang said, the more angry he became. Xiyuan Town is very small, and the size of their transportation team is the smallest in the entire Daishan City transportation team, but this is not the reason for the auto repair shop to ignore them.

"You just wait, you are wasting the precious time of the working people, wasting the precious freight resources, now I find a way to solve it, you are better, don't want to thank me, and slander the leadership's selflessness with empty teeth."

Well, for the first time, Gu Mingnan knew that Captain Zhang of his family spoke in a different way.

The captain of the auto repair team was scorned by him, and said with a dark face: "Captain Zhang, I disagree with what you said. There are so many people in the auto repair factory, and everyone is so busy that they didn't delay you on purpose." time."

"You don't have enough manpower, so I'll find someone to come over for you. Why are you still chattering around when you're not happy?"

Seeing that they were about to quarrel, the leader quickly shouted: "Okay, let's get people to try their hands first."

The captain of the auto repair team snorted coldly: "Okay, I want to see what skills he has."

On weekdays, none of the captains of the lower transportation team would look down and flatter him when they saw him. Fortunately, this guy surnamed Zhang dared to push his nose in the face, and they deserved the misfortune of the Xiyuan Town transportation team.

"If you can fix this car, you can take the first-level job, and I will never say a word."

He pointed to a truck that had been parked there for an unknown amount of time and was already covered in dust.

The leader opened his mouth and frowned, but he didn't make a sound to stop it.

Gu Mingnan was already gearing up, put on his gloves and left.

When the onlookers saw clearly the truck he was working on, they all looked at the show, and Master Liu also showed sympathy.

This car has been sitting there for too long, so that when you reach out to wipe it, you will be covered with dust. The old masters present all know the problem with this car. It is because the engine is broken, and it is not so easy to fix it.

As soon as Gu Mingnan got started, he quickly felt the problem: "The engine of this truck is broken."

Captain Zhang frowned, and glared at the captain of the auto repair team: "Aren't you trying to embarrass others on purpose?"

The captain of the auto repair team said: "You brought a driver here and said that you want to be a repairman. If he doesn't show some skills for everyone to see, who will be convinced?"

Seeing his gloomy face, Captain Zhang also knew that he had just offended him.

He felt a little remorseful in his heart, and secretly scolded himself for not paying attention to his temper just now, which caused Gu Mingnan to be unlucky with him.

"Can you fix it? If you can't fix it, come out quickly. You have to go to work. Don't waste everyone's time."

Everyone was waiting for Gu Mingnan to come out disheartened, but he said without raising his head, "I'll try."

The captain of the auto repair team sneered in his heart. Is the secret engine so easy to repair? If it could be repaired, they would have repaired it long ago. They can put such a big truck here to eat ashes.

"Then you have to be careful, don't cultivate more and more badly."

"This car is already broken, can it be worse?"

The two captains quarreled again, but Gu Mingnan on the other end almost didn't laugh out loud.

At the beginning, when he followed Master Liu, he actually learned not much. It was not that Master Liu cherished himself, but that he himself was so talented.

After Gu Mingnan found out, when he returned home, he saw his brother take out two tomes.

The thick auto repair book was higher than his pillow, and it was so densely packed that his eyes were blindfolded.

But Gu Mingdong spent a lot of effort on these two books, and even spent a lot of time contacting Professor Hong before he asked someone to buy them and send them back, which cost a lot of money back and forth.

Seeing his elder brother working so hard for himself, and thinking of the money that he could not get back after spending, Gu Mingnan wiped his tears and persevered in a daze.

Naturally, Gu Mingdong's help is indispensable. It doesn't matter if the younger brother is okay, he can teach, but it is rare that the second child has the consciousness to make money to support the family, so Gu Mingdong naturally wants to help him work hard.

As for the truck's engine, it was Gu Mingdong who circled it in the book on purpose, so that his younger brother would have to chew it up and swallow it anyway.

At this moment, Gu Mingnan's face was flushed with excitement, and he had the feeling of finding that he had passed a big question during the college entrance examination.

He pursed his lips so that he didn't let himself laugh, and the veins on his forehead popped out. In the eyes of others, it became that Gu Mingnan couldn't fix it at all, and it was just a dead duck with a hard mouth.

As time passed, Captain Zhang also covered his heart when he saw that the engine was dismantled in pieces.

He looked at the other side: "You asked him to try this, and even if he doesn't succeed, we can't make us pay."

The captain of the auto repair team snorted coldly.

The leader said in a harmonious voice: "It's already broken, and I won't ask you for compensation."

Unexpectedly, before the three of them could discuss a solution, Gu Mingnan had already installed the engine back again.

It has to be said that Gu Mingnan is indeed talented in this area, even though this talent was stimulated by money, even Gu Mingdong felt that his younger brother was not good at anything else, and his hands-on ability was first-class.

Soon, the engine was not only installed back, but also wiped clean.

Gu Mingnan put the engine back in place, connected the wires, and when he turned around, he saw everyone's eyes in unison.

"Okay, okay, why don't you try it?"

Master Liu knew him well, and he had some kind of friendship, so he couldn't help but ask, "A'nan, do you know how to disassemble and assemble engines?"

Gu Mingnan chuckled: "I only know a little bit."

Captain Zhang didn't care about other things, he jumped onto the car in two or three steps: "I'll try."

After speaking, he tried to start the truck, and the moment he pressed it, his palms were sweaty and he almost slipped.

The next moment, the roar of the engine announced that the car had returned to normal.

Captain Zhang was so happy now, he grinned and drove the car around the factory, got out of the car and patted the hood and shouted: "See, our Anan's car repair skills are like this!"

Looking at his thumb, no one objected this time.

Even the captain of the auto repair team looked at Gu Mingnan in surprise, he couldn't believe that such a hairless kid could actually fix the car: "How did you fix it?"

Gu Mingnan didn't hide anything, and explained his steps.

"Wait, how do you know this?" The captain of the auto repair team asked in surprise, he looked at Master Liu, "Old Liu, you taught this?"

"No, how could I know it? If I could repair the engine, I would have repaired this car sooner." Master Liu shouted injustice.

Gu Mingnan then said implicitly: "My elder brother knows a professor of an agricultural college in Beijing, and asked him to send a lot of books on auto repair. Figure out some ways."

Captain Zhang puffed up his chest: "Leader, our transportation team in Xiyuan Town is far-sighted. I discovered that Comrade Gu Mingnan is a rare and good seedling, and I specially cultivated him to give him room to grow."

The corner of the leader's mouth twitched, but he looked at Gu Mingnan with a lot of kindness in his eyes: "Since Comrade Gu Mingnan repaired the car, his car repair skills surpassed most of the people present, do you think?"

The captain of the auto repair team nodded and said, "It's better than many first-level workers in the team."

At the end of the conversation, he changed the subject: "Comrade Gu, since you have this ability, why don't you come directly to our auto repair shop in Daishan City, so that you can learn and make progress together with everyone."

When Captain Zhang heard this, he quit: "Hey, hey, I'm still here, are you the one who digs people out in front of you?"

"I'm doing this for the benefit of Comrade Xiao Gu. What's the use of the transportation team he stays in your small place, and what progress can he make? It's different in the auto repair shop. Maybe he can be promoted to an engineer in two years."

engineer?Gu Mingnan's ears moved.

Captain Zhang naturally knew this truth, but he was still not reconciled: "No, I brought him here. If you want to transfer him away, you have to send someone to me."

Seeing that they were about to quarrel again, the leader turned to Gu Mingnan and asked, "Comrade Gu Mingnan, what do you think? Do you want to stay in Xiyuan Town or come to Daishan City?"

"In all fairness, Daishan Auto Repair Factory is definitely more suitable for you."

As a result, Gu Mingnan thought for a while and said firmly: "Everyone, the transportation team of Xiyuan Town has trained me. I am willing to stay in the place where I grew up and continue to contribute to the transportation team."

"Have you thought about it? If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for you to transfer back."

Gu Mingnan nodded and said, "I've made up my mind."

Senior engineer, listen up, but Daishan City is far away from home. When I think about leaving home so far away, I may not be able to go home for ten days and a half. Ru, Gu Mingnan dismissed this idea.

It's good to make money, but he wants everyone to spend the money he makes, so how can he come to Daishan City to enjoy the blessings by himself?

Captain Zhang looked at the team members with a moved face: "Anan, you are a good boy."

If he knew what Gu Mingnan was thinking, he would probably give him a severe blow.

Seeing that Gu Mingnan really didn’t want to come over, and the leader didn’t force it, the captain of the auto repair team felt a little pity, and kept saying during the process of leading them through the formalities: “Little Gu, now that you’ve changed your establishment, you’re the employee of the auto repair factory.” People, come back and see more later.”

"Actually, according to the rules of the auto repair factory, although you will be stationed in Xiyuan Town in the future, you can go back to the main factory as long as you want, just make a report, and I will approve it for you."

"Go back and think about it carefully. If you change your mind, report to me at any time."

It was difficult for the other repairmen who were dispatched from the auto repair shop to come back, let alone go back to the main factory directly, but it became a breeze when they arrived at Gu Mingnan's side.

Gu Mingnan naturally declined with a smile.

Captain Zhang was touched at first, and then he felt a little guilty. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Anan, compared with our transportation team, the conditions of the main factory are much better, and the conditions for learning are also good. I feel sorry for you."

He was thinking about asking Gu Mingnan to go back and teach others, and then transfer him back after bringing out one.

But Gu Mingnan didn't care, and said: "Captain Zhang, if you didn't give me a chance, how could I raise my salary, just for this, I am happy to stay in the transportation team."

Captain Zhang was even more moved. He patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Anan, as long as I'm in the transportation team for one day, I will never let you be wronged."

The superior and the subordinate looked at each other and smiled, both satisfied with today's results.

Gu Mingnan was thinking about his salary increase. He just took a look at it. After changing the establishment and becoming a first-level worker, his salary is a full 31 yuan a month, which is a full nine yuan more than before!

Nine yuan, enough to eat a lot of meat for the family.

Back in Xiyuan Town, Gu Mingnan hurriedly ran to the pork shop. Captain Zhang couldn't help shouting. He planned to buy some so that the whole family could eat pork.

Unexpectedly, when he got to the place and took a look, Gu Mingnan was dumbfounded.
