"Well, this is a good idea, Mr. Zhang. I think the best thing for us is to find suitable captain and vice-captain candidates tomorrow. In this way, other things can be implemented by them after we leave."
"Korean workers, this is a good idea. Otherwise it will be difficult to recruit 500 workers within a week, not to mention the self-built workers we are about to use now will definitely not be as many as 500 workers. A large number of workers can be said to be needed for next year.
Reserved for the company’s operations.”
"Yes, when Mr. Hua conveyed Song's guidance, he also emphasized preparations for next year."
"Han Gong, we have to get up early tomorrow. It's already past 9 o'clock. Let's withdraw tonight."
"Okay, let's evacuate first. We will gather at the east gate of the community at 5:10 tomorrow morning."
After Zhang Yunqing and Han Zhaocai discussed it, they finished paying and went back to rest.
The next morning, at 5:08, Zhang Yunqing arrived at the east gate of the community.
Han Zhaocai covered his ears with his hands and said to Zhang Yunqing: "Good morning, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Yunqing smiled and said: "Han Gong, it's earlier. What's the matter? Is it cold?"
"The north wind is blowing so hard that my ears are very cold."
"Okay. Let's take a taxi to the bus station right away."
"Taxi, please take us to the long-distance bus station at Beimen."
"Okay, you two are seated."
"Master, how long does it take to get to Beimen Long-distance Bus Station?"
"It's so early, and if there's no traffic jam, we'll probably be there in more than 20 minutes."
I was speechless all the way.
"You two, we're here."
"How much?"
"55 yuan."
"Master will give you 55 yuan. Do you have an invoice?"
"Yes, I'll give you the invoice."
"Okay, thank you, master."
"You're welcome, you two go slowly."
After Zhang Yunqing and Han Zhaocai got off the taxi, they quickly walked into the bus station.
Although it was very early, there were still many people queuing up to buy tickets at the ticket window at the station.
Zhang Yunqing and Han Zhaocai discussed: "These two queues have the smallest number of people. We will queue up separately. Whoever gets there first will buy the bus ticket."
"Gong Zhang, yes. This is double insurance. You line up on the left side, and I line up on the right side."
About 10 minutes later, Zhang Yunqing was the first in line to buy a ticket.
The conductor asked: "Where?"
Zhang Yunqing replied: "To Hongxin County."
"How many tickets are there and when should I buy them?"
"Two tickets, buy the one closest to now."
"Hongxin County, two tickets. The nearest departure is at 6 o'clock. The cost is 240 yuan. Do I need to purchase insurance?"
"Okay. If I give you 240 yuan, I won't buy insurance."
"Take it, two tickets leaving for Hongxin County at 6 o'clock."
"Okay, thanks."
"You are welcome."
Zhang Yunqing took the ticket and said to Han Zhaocai: "I bought the ticket here, let's go and take the bus."
Han Zhaocai followed up and took a ticket from Zhang Yunqing's hand, looked at it and said: "I'm lucky, I got this ticket that leaves at 6 o'clock."
"Of course, all the good luck comes from my early departure, right?"
"Yes, yes, haha."
The two people found the window sign of Hongxin County and walked over.
A ticket inspector at the door asked: "Are you two going to Hongxin County?"
"Yes, we are going to Hongxin County."
"Please show your ticket."
Zhang Yunqing and Han Zhaocai handed over their tickets respectively. After the ticket inspector punched a hole in the ticket, he said: "The bus that leaves for Hongxin County at 6 o'clock is the bus directly opposite the ticket gate."
Zhang Yunqing said: "Okay. Thank you."
The two of them took their tickets and got on the bus.
After looking at the two tickets, the conductor on the bus reminded: "This is a long-distance bus. Please sit according to the seat number on your ticket. Don't sit in confusion."
After the two found their seats, they put their luggage on the luggage rack and closed their eyes to rest.
After several hours of driving on the highway, the bus drove onto a winding and steep road among the mountains.
The conductor warmly reminded everyone that the road conditions behind were not good, so please hold on tight.
Zhang Yunqing woke up from the severely shaking seat of the bus. Hearing the conductor's reminder, he felt that the problem was a bit serious.
Looking out the car window, there are mountains shrouded in white clouds in the distance, and the sharp peaks are looming in the clouds and mist.
Looking at the road outside the window, the distance between the bus tires and the roadside is only 20-30cm, and looking outside is a steep cliff of hundreds of meters.
Zhang Yunqing was dumbfounded and prayed silently in his heart: "God bless you and have a safe journey."
I remembered that when I bought the ticket in the morning, the conductor asked me if I wanted insurance, but I didn’t buy it in order to save money. I broke out in a cold sweat on my back.
While I was thinking about it, the bus came to a sharp left turn.
Suddenly, the bus driver shouted emotionally: "Get out of the way."
The bus driver applied an emergency brake, slammed on the brakes, and gently turned the steering wheel to the left.
The bus shook violently.
People in the car screamed loudly, and some children started crying.
Zhang Yunqing and Han Zhaocai firmly grasped the armrest, with pale faces, wondering if they were going to die.
Zhang Yunqing whispered to Han Zhaocai: "Isn't it scary?"
Han Zhaocai said: "It's too scary."
"This business trip was quite scary."
"Yes, the main reason is that there is a cliff on the roadside, which makes me really scared."
"In addition, there is such an emergency, how can it not be scary?"
After a moment of panic, the bus finally stopped.
The driver of the bus quickly turned off the engine, applied the handbrake, put the car's gear in reverse gear, and opened the front door.
He yelled to the conductor: "Quick, hurry up, find a few larger hard rocks and stuff them under the tires."
When the conductor saw the door open, he rushed out.
Some passengers also wanted to rush off when they saw this.
The bus driver shouted: "Please don't move, it's very dangerous now."
The people in the car were relatively obedient and did not move for fear of losing their balance if they moved.
It’s not that they don’t want to move, but they don’t dare to move. Some passengers may be frequent users of this line.
Help the driver to reassure everyone: "Please listen to the driver's instructions, don't move, don't move, don't move. The most important thing now is to keep quiet and steady. Everyone who wants to get off the bus, who gets off first and how to get off, must obey
Thanks to the arrangements made by the driver, the safety of all of us in the car is now in the hands of the driver."
In the midst of this flash of lightning, the conductor with quick movements had already picked up two big rocks, blocked them under the front wheels of the bus in the forward direction, and blocked them tightly.
They also brought a few large rocks and blocked them under the rear wheels in the direction of the bus, and packed them tightly.
The conductor panted and ran to the bus driver's window and said: "Big rocks have been blocked in the forward direction of all the front and rear wheels."
The bus driver took a long breath and patted his chest gently.
