Chapter 254 [Liu Jiacheng goes to the labor camp to meet silly Zhu and Jia Zhang again (4k chapters)
"Xu Damao, why are there two eggs missing from our house?"
Qin Jingru counted it over and over again.
It is indeed missing!
"Your pig brain must have remembered it wrong."
Xu Damao didn't even look at Qin Jingru and said impatiently.
"Xu Damao, what do you mean?"
"Who are you calling pig-brained?"
Qin Jingru walked over and asked with her hands on her hips.
"You are said to be a pig-brained person and you still don't admit it, do you?"
"Then let me ask you, what is three plus three, and what is five plus seven?"
Xu Damao said.
"You're bullying me for not going to school, right?"
"Xu Damao, let me ask you, have you ever thought about it?"
Xu Damao sneered in his heart, if he could have children, he would not want Qin Jingru, a stinky rural woman.
to be honest!
Xu Damao has already had enough with Qin Jingru.
"Okay, I'm too lazy to argue with you."
"I'm going to the countryside to play a movie recently. I probably won't be able to come back in three to five days. If you don't want to go back to your parents' house, just take advantage of this time to go home and have a look."
Xu Damao said.
"Why did you go so long this time?"
"Aren't you going to go back with me?"
Qin Jingru also planned to let Xu Damao take her back to the countryside by bicycle.
That way he looks like a city dweller.
What a face!
Many people in their hometown in rural areas have only heard of bicycles, and there is not even one in the whole country.
"How can I have time?"
"If you want to go back, do it now. If you don't want to go back, forget it."
Xu Damao said.
"I have no money!"
"You give me five dollars and I'll go back."
Qin Jingru stood in front of Xu Damao and stretched out her hand to ask for it.
"Okay, I'll give you five dollars!"
After getting the money, Qin Jingru's face lit up with joy, and she went directly to the supply and marketing cooperative without any delay.
Since there is no Xu Damao's bicycle to support her face this time, she must dress up to make herself the most dazzling one in the village.
Let those people take a look at her life in the city!
Xu Damao looked at Qin Jingru's figure disappearing into the backyard and couldn't help but sneered: "You bitch, you're still fighting with me!"
"You are said to be a pig-brained person and you still don't admit it!"
Xu Damao was extremely proud!
He just had a quarrel on purpose, and Qin Jingru completely forgot about the two missing eggs.
When he said he was going to the countryside for three to five days just now, that was also a deliberate lie!
The purpose is to deceive Qin Jingru away, and then he can
Now he is just waiting for Qin Jingru, this stinky bitch, to leave before he attacks He Yuyu.
…
The other side.
After Liu Jiacheng finished eating early in the morning, he pushed his bicycle and prepared to set off.
And the place he is going to today is not a steel rolling mill!
But it’s a rural village dozens of miles away from here!
Yesterday, Director Yang came to him and told him that a machine suddenly broke down in the labor reform team in the countryside.
Because the head of the labor reform team had a good relationship with Factory Director Yang, he shamelessly came over to ask for help.
To put it bluntly, I know Liu Jiacheng can repair rolling mills!
The leader of the labor reform team wanted Liu Jiacheng to go over and take a look.
"It's okay if you don't tell them directly, but you must pay attention to safety."
Lou Xiao'e knew how powerful the machine was, and she might hit her hand if she wasn't careful.
It's okay for Liu Jiacheng to be in the steel rolling mill. After all, he is very familiar with the machines, but he has never seen them in the labor camp, so who can understand them clearly.
"Don't worry!"
"I won't do anything I'm not sure about."
Liu Jiacheng also knows this very well.
It would be embarrassing if he didn't know how to repair it and then had it completely scrapped by someone else.
"Jia Cheng, be careful on the road." Lou Xiao'e hung a bottle of water and some cakes she had prepared on Liu Jiacheng's handlebar.
"Don't worry, I'll be back tomorrow at most."
After Liu Jiacheng finished speaking, he put his long legs on the pedal and pushed hard, and the car ran away.
The Liu family originally planned to take the bus there, after all, it was dozens of miles away.
But... that poor place is not open to traffic at all!
no way!
I can only ride a bicycle.
In this day and age, people like him are lucky, after all, they still have a bicycle.
Many people who don’t have bicycles use their legs to travel. Dozens of miles of mountain roads in a day are not something you just talk about casually.
…
…
Liu Jiacheng inquired all the way, and finally found the location of the labor camp in the afternoon.
It was indeed just like Director Yang told him... it was desolate!
At a glance, you can see many people wearing uniforms carrying rocks on the hillside.
There were many people nearby in uniforms with weapons in their hands supervising.
On the one hand, I was worried about something happening, and on the other hand, I was worried that these people would escape.
"Comrade, who are you looking for?"
A man ran over from a small pavilion at the door and asked.
"My name is Liu Jiacheng!"
"They were sent by the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill to repair the machine."
Liu Jiacheng said.
"Please wait here for a moment."
The staff member ran back to verify.
Not long after...
A bald middle-aged man ran out.
Liu Jiacheng knows him!
This is the leader of the labor reform team—Old Zhao!
Liu Jiacheng had met this old Zhao before when he went to the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill for help.
"Comrade Liu Jiacheng, I've been waiting for you."
"I won't say anything unnecessary. Please go and help me see what's wrong with this machine."
"I have a total of two machines here, and now one of them is damaged, which has slowed down the quarrying work by more than half."
As Lao Zhao said this, he pulled Liu Jiacheng into the labor camp.
"Director Zhao, I will try my best."
After Liu Jiacheng entered here, he discovered that the area was not large, only about a few hundred square meters. It was surrounded by barbed wire, and the only exit was the place where he had just entered.
But that’s right!
These people are not ordinary workers, but reform-through-labor prisoners!
You must keep an eye on these people here and there to prevent them from doing anything outrageous.
"What kind of director is not a director? If you call me that, you are too foreign."
"I won't call you Technician Liu, and don't call me Director Zhao either. Just call me Old Zhao, more cordial."
"You don't know that this broken machine is probably older than me. This machine was there when I first came to the labor camp..."
Lao Zhao is a talkative person. Once he starts talking, he can't stop talking.
Although Lao Zhao talks a lot, it doesn't delay his work!
Within two minutes, Liu Jiacheng took him to find the big machine lying on the ground.
Liu Jiacheng turned around and could only see that the machine was used for diamond heads. What was the specific name of this thing... He didn't know.
Too old!
"Old Zhao, I need to dismantle it before I can see it."
"You should have tools here!"
Liu Jiacheng didn't bring any tools when he came to the countryside this time. It was already a lot of effort for him to get here.
You have to bring the tools to repair the machine... that's really fatal!
"have!"
"Little pigeon, bring our tools."
Lao Zhao shouted at a child of fifteen or sixteen years old, and within a few seconds the kung fu tool was placed in front of Liu Jiacheng.
Although the machine was already rusty and had too many scratches to count, Liu Jiacheng still used the method of putting a towel on it before.
"Comrade Jiacheng, you don't have to be so careful about this."
"Because the foreigners don't care about this machine at all, and those bastards just want us to buy new ones."
"You just have to be bold and practice it!"
Although Lao Zhao does not have a technical background, he did his homework before going to Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill.
For example: He knew about the towel-laying thing not long ago!
"Repairing machines is no child's play and cannot be done carelessly!"
Liu Jiacheng said.
"That's right!"
"You are the expert, we all listen to you."
Liu Jiacheng removed the screws one by one. When he used a hammer to knock off the rusty iron shell on the outside, the internal structure became clear at a glance.
The problem can be clearly seen from the configuration inside.
Maybe it's because of being in this mountainous area for a long time that a lot of small rocks and debris have fallen into it.
It is precisely because of these stone debris that the parts inside the machine are damaged during friction and extrusion!
"Comrade Jiacheng, you should be able to repair this thing, right?" Lao Zhao asked.
“It’s not a big problem!”
Since becoming a technician's assistant, his level has also improved day by day.
Especially after recently obtaining the core technology package for locomotive construction, it feels like a duck in water.
Nowadays, repairing such a broken machine is no problem!
"Okay, you can fix it quickly." Lao Zhao said.
"Don't be happy too early."
"This machine is quite broken now, and two gears are completely unusable."
"The conditions here are limited. I have to go back to the steel rolling mill to get some gears."
Liu Jiacheng looked at the now gloomy weather: "Old Zhao, it's going to rain. Find a few people to move this machine under the shed over there. If the inside of this machine is rusted by the rain,
That would be even more troublesome!"
"Come over in groups four!"
Lao Zhao shouted at the top of his lungs at the reform-through-labor prisoners on the hillside.
Not long after, seven or eight reform-through-labor prisoners came over...
When Liu Jiacheng saw these reform-through-labor prisoners, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Good guy!
He knew three of the eight people in total!
Silly Zhu, Jia Zhang, and Tang Sheng, who had previously harassed Qin Huairu and later came to trouble him.
"Oh, what a coincidence!"
It was so funny for Liu Jiacheng to see these three people wearing labor camp uniforms.
But...it is indeed a coincidence!
Not to mention that he could meet Shazhu and Jia Zhang here.
It was a huge coincidence that Silly Zhu and Jia Zhang were able to reform together, and they were also assigned to the same group.
"Liu Jiacheng!!!"
Silly Zhu and Jia Zhang said almost in unison.
Silly Zhu is now unshaven. He was originally in his twenties and now looks like he is in his forties.
Look at Jia Zhang again!
Face full of vicissitudes of life!
The whole person looked much more haggard than before.
People have also lost a lot of weight!
"Do you know each other?" Lao Zhao asked.
“I used to live in a large compound!”
Liu Jiacheng said with a smile.
Liu Jiacheng was a little tired after traveling dozens of miles to Chengdu, but when he saw Shazhu and Jia Zhang going through labor reform here, he suddenly felt much refreshed.
"Comrade Jiacheng, I will thank you on behalf of the labor camp for repairing the rolling mill, but the rules here cannot be broken."
Lao Zhao is a straight man.
He was worried that Liu Jiacheng would ask him to take care of Silly Zhu and Jia Zhang later, so he simply said the ugly things in advance.
This will prevent him from being in a dilemma again when the machine is repaired later!
"Old Zhao, I feel relieved with your words."
"Don't have any worries, we will do whatever you want."
Liu Jiacheng understood what Lao Zhao meant.
plead?
If he really wanted to, he would let these two people do more work.
"Liu Jiacheng, I knew you would not end well, so you came here to reform."
"Deserve it!"
Jia Zhang said with a pair of vicious triangular eyes.
She would never forget who sent her here.
It’s Liu Jiacheng!
If Liu Jiacheng had not accused her of promoting feudal superstition in the compound at that time, she would not have ended up like she did now.
When she knelt down and begged Liu Jiacheng to let her go, this bastard was unmoved!
"Jia Zhang, I disappoint you!"
"I'm here to fix machines!"
Liu Jiacheng opened his arms and turned around, letting Jia Zhang take a look at the new clothes Lou Xiao'e had made for him.
Jia Zhang’s brain is really hopeless!
If he were really a prisoner of labor reform, would he be dressed like this?
"Stop talking nonsense!"
"You guys, as a group, quickly move the machine to the shed over there."
"We have to do it before it rains, otherwise the machine will get rusty when it rains, and you won't be able to use the machine again in the future."
Lao Zhao thought these people were old friends.
It turns out to be an old enemy!
No wonder Liu Jiacheng said just now that he should do whatever he wants.
The reform-through-labor prisoners in the fourth group did not dare to waste a moment after hearing what Lao Zhao said.
After the machine was replaced in the past two days, they suffered a lot. In the past, they used machines to crush stones, but now they just use sledgehammers with both hands.
That sour and refreshing!
They all want to curse!
Although Si Zhu was extremely angry when he saw Liu Jiacheng's arrogant look, he could only squat down and lift the machine under the urging of others.
A machine may not look big, but it is made entirely of iron lumps!
The eight reform-through-labor prisoners worked hard together, until Silly Zhu's farts were exhausted and he could barely move on the ground.
"Rumble--"
Thunder is rolling!
At this time, the entire sky had turned dark, and dark clouds were covering it...
"It's going to rain soon!"
"You guys hurry up and work harder, it's no joke if the machine gets wet."
Liu Jiacheng urged.
It would have been fine if he hadn't dismantled it before, but now it would be troublesome if the inside was rusted due to rain.
"Liu Jiacheng, don't make sarcastic remarks here."
"If you have the ability, why don't you come and lift it yourself!"
Jia Zhang didn't know whether it was because she was angry or tired, but she could hear obvious breathing all over her body.
"I am a machine repairer, not a machine lifter."
"If you have any objections, go to your person in charge to report them!"
Liu Jiacheng said lightly.
"Ms. Jia Zhang, don't you understand the rules of the labor camp?"
"Shout a report before you speak!"
"Who gave you permission to speak?"
Lao Zhao's roar made Jia Zhang unable to breathe.
Obviously!
Jia Zhang is very afraid of Lao Zhao here.
"Hurry up!"
"If the machine gets caught in the rain, go to the mountain and dig out rocks with your hands."
Amid Lao Zhao's roar, the eight reform-through-labor prisoners tried their best to carry the machine into the shed.
It's not that I don't want to add more people to them, but the machine is so big that it's good enough to be able to use eight people.
After the machine entered the shed, heavy rain also poured down...
The several supervisors who were taking shelter from the rain in the shed just now could only move tables and benches to make way for them.
after all!
In this era, no matter how old a machine is, it is more important than a person.
People can get caught in the rain, but machines can't!
