Therefore, no matter how high the driver's driving skills are, he cannot guarantee that the vehicle will drive smoothly when the road conditions are bad.
Fortunately, the economic development of the Hangzhou area was relatively good during the Republic of China period.
The construction level of its road infrastructure is much better than that in the central and western regions.
This is entirely due to the fact that Hangzhou is located at the hub of the north-south road in the eastern coastal area and has convenient water transportation conditions. Its economic development has always been good.
The saying "There is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below" is not a casual joke.
Such basic conditions are also the reason why the "Liuquan Guards" were ordered to leave Lu a hundred years ago and stationed in the south of Anqiu as a barrier to the north. They chose the Hangzhou area as the place where the Ministry of Health was stationed.
The "Liuquan Guard" placed the Ministry of Health in Tonglu, which further highlighted the geographical advantage.
Tonglu can be said to be the most important road junction in the Hangzhou area. As long as Tonglu is guarded, the entire main road that runs through the Hangzhou area will be under the control of the Ministry of Health.
This driver, who has been to many places, was driving on the road leading to Tonglu, and he kept sighing in his heart that the road condition was good.
In such a stable driving environment, Xie Liuyun and Sheng Qingfeng were like children lying in a cradle and quickly fell into a deep sleep.
When Xie Liuyun woke up from his deep sleep and opened his eyes, he saw that Sheng Qingfeng beside him had already woken up and was carefully watching the situation outside the car.
Xie Liuyun didn't know how long he had slept. He sat upright and his body was already slipping a little. He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes to wake himself up from sleep.
Seeing that he had woken up, Sheng Qingfeng said: "Liuquan, I heard the driver say that the two of us had a good sleep this time!
The snoring was a competition between high and low, one after another, almost the same, making him feel as if he was listening to us humming a tune."
Sheng Qingfeng said this, which made Xie Liuyun blush and feel a little embarrassed.
"Oops! Qing Niu, I'm blushing a little when you say this. You should take a rest. You are indeed a little tired in the past two days.
But I never thought that while you were closing your eyes and concentrating and gradually falling asleep, I would also feel tired and my eyelids would tremble.
I originally thought of simply closing my eyes and taking a rest, but unexpectedly I fell asleep, which is really inappropriate.
I’ve been sleeping until now, and I don’t know where we are.”
Xie Liuyun spoke, explaining the situation and relieving his own embarrassment.
After hearing what Xie Liuyun said, the driver of the car opened his mouth to answer his last question.
When Xie Liuyun heard the place name mentioned by the driver, he knew it was what the driver had seen from the road sign on the roadside.
He used to work in the Highway Bureau of Tonglu as a full-time bridge engineer. He participated in many municipal road construction projects and was familiar with the regulations and placement requirements for facilities and equipment on the highway.
The place name spoken by the driver was the name of a village. From this, Yong Ming knew that this was a road sign more than thirty kilometers away from a large town.
Once you drive within 30 kilometers from Tonglu, the place names appearing on the road signs will mainly be towns.
In this area, the basic distance between road signs or boundary stone monuments is five kilometers.
If the name of a village appears on a road sign, its role is only to guide the specific path to the village, and its role in indicating distance can be ignored.
Judging from the distance from Tonglu, I have slept for at least forty minutes in the past time.
At this time, my waking up happened to not delay things.
So, Xie Liuyun looked at the setting sun from the car window, and while the sky was still bright and he could see far away, he pointed out the familiar scenery to Sheng Qingfeng and introduced the situation to him.
One of them spoke eloquently, and the other listened with great interest.
When it comes to the more interesting folklore about a place, even the driver is still interested in hearing it.
Before you know it, you can see the east gate of Tonglu City ahead.
Xie Liuyun took the opportunity to introduce the history of Tonglu City to Sheng Qingfeng, telling him that Tonglu was built in the 4th year of Huangwu in the Eastern Wu Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period. It has a history of 1,700 years and is a small town with a long history.
As Sheng Qingfeng listened along the way, he already had a preliminary sense of Tonglu's external geographical environment and the layout planning of the villages and towns in the east outside the city.
Being able to have such an understanding of some of Tonglu's divided areas before arriving at Tonglu City was a very helpful convenience for him, and it indeed gained him some valuable familiarity.
time.
In the next few days, he believed that he would have a comprehensive grasp of Tonglu as a whole.
After the vehicle slowed down and drove slowly through the east gate of Tonglu and entered the city, Xie Liuyun completely acted as the driver's guide.
He directed the driver to go along the road, turning and turning from time to time, and soon he stopped at the roadside at an alley.
After the driver stopped the vehicle, Xie Liuyun smiled and said to Sheng Qingfeng: "Qingniu, welcome to Tonglu and come to my house as a guest."
It turned out that Xie Liuyun guided the vehicle all the way, and the familiar driver arrived in front of Andu Si Lane and outside his home.
As he spoke, Xie Liuyun opened the car door on this side and got out of the car. He was very excited and moved his body from side to side.
Sheng Qingfeng smiled and turned to the driver and said, "Look, now that I'm home, I'm as happy as a child.
This doesn’t look like a chief official of the Ministry of Health at all. Although he is a little careless about his image, it makes people happy to see him."
The driver held the steering wheel with both hands, leaned forward and looked at the excited Xie Liuyun under the car, and said with emotion: "No matter how high the status is, what momentum and reputation you have, it will always be like this after you return home.
So relaxing.
I endure the wind and rain outside and the suffering of the world, and I feel that I am an omnipotent strong man, but when I think about it carefully, who is not a treasure in front of my elders?"
After hearing the driver's words, Sheng Qingfeng felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
He knew that the driver next to him was also a member of the Yong clan and a member of the "Flying Dragon Team". He had the same identity and background as the team members who actually participated in the operation, but they were in different positions and had different responsibilities.
