In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 14 Master Yu prepares to intercept.

"Isn't this Master Zhang?" Duan Dahai and Yu Dawei were standing a little further apart, but he recognized the old master with the mustache at a glance.

"What's wrong with this master?" Yu Dawei asked curiously.

"Well, he's got the skills, but he's pretty shady." Duan Dahai stroked his chin. "I think the excavator owner is from out of town, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Master Zhang and his apprentice to fix the machine."

"Hey Zhang, if you don't fix my machine today, nothing else matters!" The owner of the excavator blocked the two men from leaving. "We're from out of town. If something happens, we can just walk away. But I remember how many people are in your family and what they all look like."

Old Zhang glanced at the four or five burly men in front of him, each with broad shoulders and a fierce look, and knew that he had messed with the wrong people this time.

"Fine, I'll just say it's because I'm not good enough and my skills aren't up to par. I can't fix your Komatsu. I'll refund the repair fee. I accept my loss." As he spoke, Mr. Zhang took out a wad of cash from his pocket and handed it to the other party.

"You bastard, you say you can't fix it and you can't fix it?! What am I supposed to do with the work in my factory?!" The car owner took the money, his face full of anger.

He had already spent a lot of money pulling strings to get a job, hoping to earn some money during the winter. But now, he's not only not made any money, he's also lost a lot of money.

"That's none of my business. I told you before that your machine is too old, and it's an imported one at that." Master Zhang raised his head and pointed to the town behind him. "Let me tell you, I'm the only one in the whole Luhe Town who can repair imported excavators. You'd be hard-pressed to find another person like me."

"If you take my advice, hurry up and tow the car to the oil city next door. There are many excavator repairmen there, and you might be able to find one who can fix it."

The car owner grew angrier and angrier, especially when he saw the other man's arrogant expression. He was furious: "Brothers, let's take him down!"

"Damn it! If I don't beat the crap out of you two today, I'm not Xu Tianzhu!"

Then, the four of them surrounded the two in the middle and started fighting.

Some excavator operators nearby glanced at it, then all shrank back into their cabs, only daring to peek.

"Brother, let's go back too. This kind of thing happens often in this place. You'll get used to it." Duan Dahai was worried that these guys would get carried away and not even spare the people around them, so he grabbed Yu Dawei's sleeve and tried to leave.

"Wait a minute, Brother Duan! This is money from heaven, we can't turn it down!" Yu Dawei broke free from Duan Dahai's hand and walked straight towards the group of people in front of him. "Stop fighting!"

"What? You know him?" Xu Tianzhu turned around, his murderous eyes fixed on Yu Dawei.

Yu Dawei sneered inwardly. This kind of self-important person probably did countless things in his past life.

He calmly walked to the front of the excavator, stared at its boom for a while, and said, "I don't recognize it, but I can fix this machine."

Xu Tianzhu laughed in anger, releasing Master Zhang, who was beaten like a dead dog: "You haven't even grown your hair yet, and you're still pretending? Do you even know what brand of excavator this is?"

“A Komatsu 850.” Yu Dawei said calmly, then walked around to the back of the motorcycle and wiped off the yellow paint. “This is just an 850 with a frame. It’s been modified quite a bit, but the major parts probably haven’t been touched, because there aren’t any replacement parts available in China right now.”

The so-called large components refer to large pumps, engines, travel motors, slewing motors, etc.

Xu Tianzhu and his group were all stunned for a moment, especially when they saw the young man's calm and composed expression. They were all a little unsure of what to do.

Could this guy actually know how to fix excavators?
As Master Zhang rightly said, in remote villages and towns in the 90s, there were very few operators skilled in operating excavators, and even fewer who could repair imported excavators. Master Zhang, wiping the blood from his mouth, wondered to himself, "How does such a young man know so much?"

Even he didn't know what model of Komatsu this imported car was.

Over the years, he has relied on his skills in repairing agricultural machinery to make a living in the excavator industry. Therefore, his knowledge of professional excavator models and excavator parts terminology is mostly learned by prying them from vehicle owners.

He still couldn't believe that such a young man, about the same age as his apprentice, could be a master excavator repairman.

"Brother, what's your surname?" Xu Tianzhu's attitude changed completely. He quickly came to Yu Dawei, took out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes from his pocket, opened it, and handed it to the other man.

"No." Yu Dawei turned around and smiled. "My surname is Yu."

"Master Yu, it's a pleasure to meet you." Xu Tianzhu offered another cigarette to Duan Dahai, and each of his brothers took one. "Do you think my car can be repaired?"

A few people who had been hiding quite far away earlier, seeing that a fight was unlikely, curiously walked towards Komatsu 850's location.

"Heh, can he fix it? He can't even take a break!" Master Zhang had somehow gotten close, staring at Yu Dawei with disgust. "In this whole area, whether it's repairing farm machinery or excavators, I've seen it all!"

"Kid, just knowing about cars isn't enough, you need to know how to fix them. Don't try to act all high and mighty, or you'll end up getting yourself into trouble."

As soon as Mr. Zhang finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. Why did his words seem to be talking about himself?

However, he couldn't let the young man run wild. After all, if the kid really knew how to repair imported excavators, he wouldn't be able to get along well in the town in the future.

Especially if this kid really gets fixed, that means stepping on his head to rise to power. Who would do something like that?

In short, this kid surnamed Yu has now become Zhang Mazi's mortal enemy.

"Brother, are you sure you can do it?" Duan Dahai whispered to Yu Dawei, "Master Zhang is quite famous in our Luhe Town. If you can't fix it today, you'll definitely offend him. If your car breaks down again in the future, you'll probably suffer at his hands."

Yu Dawei didn't say anything, but gave Brother Duan a reassuring look, and then patted Xiao Song's excavator: "Give me one night, and I can fix this truck for you."

"One night?" Xu Tianzhu had initially thought that this Master Xiao might have some skills, but after hearing how much the other party was putting on an act, he suddenly became more suspicious.

"Haha, that's hilarious! Boss Xu, listen to this, he actually dares to say he can fix this kind of difficult problem with the excavator in one night." Master Zhang looked down at Yu Dawei, "You should go somewhere cool and stay there, don't be such a troublemaker."

"Heh, calling me a troublemaker? May I ask what I'm stirring up now?" Yu Dawei sneered.

"You!" Zhang Mazi's face immediately turned red.

“If you trust me, just wait one day. Come pick up the car at this time tomorrow night.” Yu Dawei looked at Xu Tianzhu, who was full of hesitation. “Even if you get the car to the oil city, you may not be able to find the right mechanic.”

"Of course, if you insist on having the car towed to the oil city, then just pretend I didn't say anything."
