People in the Republic of China start from building a top power

As long as the boats can be started, they will be sent to the wharf to pick up people who cross the river from Jinling. If people are close to their homes and their hometowns are along the Yangtze River, they will be sent home directly.

With the full operation of the traffic of all parties, Huayin Company's mighty Spring Festival officially started.

For several days in a row, in Jinling City and surrounding cities, there were countless large and small vehicles rushing to send those people to their homes.

"Phew - I can finally go home for the New Year."

On a road near Huzhou, Liu Quan looked at the gradually changing 080 scene in front of him, and the excitement on his face was beyond words.

……

My name is Liu Quan, a rural man from Huzhou.

Our family has been poor since we were young. The eight generations of our ancestors were all poor peasants, and the generation up to our parents has no money and no education.

Since I was five or six years old, I have been digging food in the fields with my parents. When I was seven or eight years old, my family managed to save some money for me to study in a private school for two years.

But when I was ten years old, I dropped out of school because I couldn't pay the money, and I was forced to help the children in the fields and at home.

When I grew up, I worked part-time with the landlords in the village. Not only did I not earn a few yuan all year round, but I was often beaten and scolded by the landlords and their family members, and my wages were deducted.

This kind of life has been going on for more than ten years.

Until the past two years, I heard from my fellow villagers that people are now working outside, especially in the southern part, where workers who earn a lot of money can earn more than [-] yuan a month.

At that time, I thought to myself, is there such a good place in the world?

Later, I deliberately went to inquire with that fellow villager, and only then did I know that the good place was called Huayin Company, which opened in a big city called Jinling (ajed) in the north.

More than 20 oceans!

I have been working part-time for more than ten years, but I can't earn that kind of money.

In order to better support the family and marry a wife, I followed that fellow from the same village and called some companions from the village to Jinling to work together in the spring of this year.

But when I came here, I realized that Huayin Company has no shortage of part-time jobs for the time being, unless they have some special skills.

But I don’t know a lot of characters, and I don’t know anything except farming and working as a coolie. Fortunately, there are no unparalleled roads. Under the introduction of my fellow villagers, I entered a part-time job in a clothing factory that joined Huayin Company.

The work here is not easy every day, and the wages are not more than 20 yuan, but at least manage it, and at the end of the month, you can still get [-] yuan.

Although the living is not very good, but for me, it is very satisfying.

If I were still staying at home, I wouldn't be able to save these eight yuan for four or five years.

Later, I worked here steadily for a year, saving money on food and expenses, and saved dozens of oceans on me!

Until a few days ago, the Chinese New Year was about to come, and the manufacturer also gave us a holiday. With so much money in my pocket, I happily thought about going home and reuniting with my parents.

By the way, I also bring some gifts to the second elder, and show off with relatives.

But when I left Jinling with a few fellow villagers and arrived at the passenger terminal to go home by car, an accident happened.

As the new year approaches, many people have to go home to celebrate the new year.

When the few of us arrived at the station, more than ten thousand people gathered in the whole station!

The line waiting for the car can't see the leader at a glance!

Now I panicked.

When we set off from Jinling City, we didn't bring much food or clothes with us. We just wanted to get in the car and get home after a while.

But looking at the situation in front of them, even if they line up for a whole day, they still won't be able to get in the car.

However, things that make us even more panic are yet to come.

After arriving at the station and waiting for a while, we found that more and more people were pouring into the station behind us. We don’t know how long it took. We would definitely not be able to take the bus, and the people in the station were already crowded. One piece!

"It's over!"

Seeing so many people, this is the first thought of me and a few fellow villagers.

When we came to the station, it was after eleven o'clock at night. We originally wanted to go home overnight and reunite with our family as soon as possible, but who knew that the more people waited, the more people waited.

Until the dawn of the next day, everyone couldn't hold it anymore.

The weather in the middle of winter, the sky was still snowing, we waited all night, we had nothing to eat and drink, and we had no heat at all.

By noon of the next day, I was completely unconscious, cold and hungry, and I hadn't slept all day and night, and I had already fallen into a state of numbness.

How I want to sleep!

But my fellow countrymen pulled me up many times, saying that it was impossible.

In the cold weather, if a person falls asleep, he may never wake up.

"Go home for the New Year! Go home for the New Year!"

At that time, there was only one thought left in my heart to support me.

So we stayed up until night, when the whole station was already filled with crowds. There might be 20 people, or 30?

I do not know either.

That night, we still didn't get in the car.

Later, I don't know how I got through it. My brain and body are still there, but they no longer listen to me.

Later, it seemed to be dawn-I couldn't tell whether it was night or morning.I suddenly heard someone shouting in the hall.

Not long after, I felt something heavy wrapped around me, and I could smell the food faintly.

It was only after I regained my consciousness that I realized that it was people from Huayin Company who came to deliver us food and clothing. They were the ones who let me survive until the oil ran out and the lamps dried up.

In the next few days, my consciousness recovered and my body returned to normal. People from Huayin Company distributed food and drink to us every day.

By the way, the food they handed out was pretty good.

A few of my fellow countrymen and I decided not to leave, not because of the delicious food, but because Huayin Company informed us that the traffic was tight and we could not send the people at the station home all at once.

Only then did I know that more than 60 people had gathered in the station! .

Chapter 490: The Hardest Years

These more than 60 people, like us, are brothers and sisters who have come to work nearby and are going home for the New Year.

The reason why the few of us didn't leave was because we wanted to leave the opportunity to go first to those who were close to home, as well as the elderly and children. Not only us, many people chose to do so.

As for those of us who are far away from home and in better health, it’s okay to wait a few days.

Huayin Company saved our lives and didn't make us cold and hungry, so what's the point if we were more humble at the critical moment?

But as the Chinese New Year is getting closer, the days when the few of us want to go home are getting stronger and stronger.

A few days later, a lot of people in the station had already left. Seeing this, my companions and I told the people of Huayin Company to arrange for us to take the bus home.

I am so happy!

The moment I got in the car, I was really happy!

The vehicle we took was a bus, and people said that the number of buses was long gone.

That bus could only hold a dozen people, but now it is pulling 22 people, and most of them are going back to celebrate the New Year, and they all carry large and small luggage.

When we got into the car, there wasn't even a place to stay.

But I'm still very happy!

After so many days of waiting, and almost freezing to death in the station, now, anyway, I can finally go home!

When we approached Huzhou, several fellow villagers and I were sighing.

If Huayin Company hadn't opened the way for us, our corpses would have cooled down at the station long ago.

In addition, I would also like to thank the driver brothers who braved the wind and snow to send us.

They could have celebrated the New Year at home, but now they are unable to reunite with their families in order to send us home.

···········

Leaning on the seat, smoking a cigarette a little tiredly, there are obviously some dark circles around the eye sockets.

"It's the busiest time ever."

Gao Shu whispered in his mouth that he was originally a farmer in Xiaohuang Village outside Jinling City.

It can be said that the family has been poor for generations, and in his generation, it is even poorer.

It's just that his situation is much better than that of his parents. He caught up with the wave of economic development and is very close to Jinling, so he applied for a driver at Huayin Transportation Company and learned driving skills.

It's New Year's Eve, according to Huayin Group's regulations, he was originally the first group of drivers to take a rest, and he did rest at home a few days ago.

It was just that in the middle of the night, his colleagues from the company knocked on the door. Because a large number of people were stranded at the passenger terminal, he had to return to work.

"What a nightmare period!"

Gao Shu muttered to himself, recalling what happened during this period, for him, this was a lingering nightmare.

Since he was woken up in the middle of the night to drive people back to their hometowns, his life in the past few days has been a kind of torture.

I have to get up around 06:30 every morning, and I usually lie down to sleep around [-] o'clock in the evening.

Sometimes there is a little more time to stop on the road, and he may not be able to go to bed until eleven o'clock.

In the past few days, his car has been changed. There is no way, the vehicle technology of this era is far behind our modern ones.

The long-term start-up will cause frequent vehicle failures, especially during the Spring Festival travel season, which is a test for the vehicle.

"Old Gao, where are you resting? Give me a hand and change the wheels."

A voice pulled Gao Shu out of his long-lost leisure, turned his head slightly to look out the window, and saw a man in a military uniform and a military cap askew standing in front of his window with a wrench in his hand.

His name is Zhang Dazui, and he was given this nickname because he is easy to talk.He is the driver of the logistics department of the military and was seconded to Huayin Group to participate in the Spring Festival travel rush.

These two people have been running the route from Jinling to Huzhou in the past few days, so the relationship between the two has gradually become familiar.

Gao Shu got out of the car and came to the bus with his mouth open, and saw that one wheel was flat.

"Why are you out of breath again?"

Gao Shu yawned as he spoke, feeling a little helpless. The bus with his mouth wide open had already had two wheels changed back and forth in the past few days, and another one broke today.

"What are you doing talking so much nonsense? Aren't you the same? Those of us who travel to Huzhou have a long journey and continue to run. The wheels can't bear it, so we quickly help to change them.

There are still several trips to go in a while. These days are really terrible. The people at the passenger terminal feel that they have never stopped and come all the time. "

After a few days of busy work, Zhang Dazui also lost the talkativeness he used to have, and became a little annoyed.

For Gao Shu these few days, life is like a nightmare, so why not for Zhang Dazui?

Can you imagine that they are so busy that they can only solve it in the car for lunch?

After all, Huayin Transportation Company was established for too short a period of time, and its transport capacity was too low. To complete the Spring Festival travel rush, drivers like them need to fight with their lives.

Otherwise, why would Huayin Group send millions of people home in such a short period of time?

Gao Shu didn't say any more nonsense, and the two quickly replaced the wheel and replaced it with a good one.

"Take this wheel to the repair shop!"

Opening his mouth wide, he rolled the wheels aside and spoke to a staff member at the passenger terminal.

Originally, repairing passenger cars did not require their drivers to do it. Huayin Transportation Company has a maintenance department dedicated to vehicle repairs.

However, during the Spring Festival travel season, many vehicles had problems, and some buses needed major repairs. As a result, the maintenance department of Huayin Transportation Company did not have enough manpower.

So there is the current situation. Generally, if the wheels are flat or the tires are leaking, the driver directly replaces the wheels, and the defective wheels are sent to the maintenance department for repairs.

"Big mouth, how many people have you pulled in these few days?"

Gao Shu lit another cigarette for himself, looked at him with his mouth wide open and asked.

0 .......... 0

"Counting the pull-in and pull-out, it is estimated that there are about five or six hundred people! I don't know the exact number, anyway, on average, there are eight or ninety people a day, how about you?"

Zhang Dazui thought for a while, the road distance from Jinling to Huzhou is about 200 kilometers.

A distance of more than 200 kilometers is not considered a long distance in later generations, but in this era, it is a standard long distance.

The speed of the car is not fast. It takes half a day to run more than 200 kilometers. From day to night, it can only run twice if it is full.
