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

Chapter 646 An Unexpected Event After the New Year, Old Xu's Sudden Visit
After the New Year, Boss Liang went to Guangdong and Guangxi in the south to start his market development plan. It is said that the start was pretty good. Brother Erdan helped Boss Liang a lot in Shenzhen.

Yu Dawei also spoke with Erdan on the phone; otherwise, the other party wouldn't even know who Boss Liang was.

These days, he and Erdan rarely have a chance to meet. However, Zhang Biao and Claw Brother usually drive their trucks south, and the three of them occasionally run into each other for drinks.

On the second day of the second lunar month, Yu Dawei went to the village to buy several pig heads and trotters. They have a custom of eating pig head meat on the second day of the second lunar month.

The pork and pig's trotters I bought were raw and covered in pig hair, which Yu Dawei helped remove; he was very skilled at this.

Normally, an alcohol torch is used to roast these pig heads and trotters over a high flame. However, nowadays, oxygen and acetylene are readily available in factories, and if the heat is adjusted properly, this stuff is actually better than an alcohol torch.

In the evening, Yu Dawei also invited the kindergarten teachers and staff over. After all, his wife was the owner of the kindergarten, and both were in the same town and not far from each other, so he simply invited them over to eat together.

Of course, Yu Dawei also had his own selfish motives.

A few single guys in the factory knew about their connections to the kindergarten and tutoring center, so they wanted to treat the kindergarten teachers to a meal.

Yu Dawei thought that the people on both sides were quite young, and none of the kindergarten teachers were married, so he might as well find an opportunity to get to know them.

There are many single people in their factory, and whether they succeed or not is beyond his control.

However, with the booming development of various industries in recent years, having a technical skill is no longer considered an advantage. Nowadays, as long as you work hard and are willing to endure hardship, you can live a good life.

This statement may not be relevant in the future, but it is true now.

Take farming as an example: hardworking and diligent farmers can harvest significantly more corn than lazy farmers.

Some of the more resourceful people reclaimed fertile land from the wasteland, more than doubling their profits.

However, some places have explicitly prohibited land reclamation, and it's hard to say how much you'll be fined if you're caught.

After the second day of the second lunar month, Yu Dawei made a special trip to the oil city. He hadn't been to the oil city to check the gas stations since the Lunar New Year. Since Accountant Yang wasn't busy, he drove her around to check the accounts and such.

I also bought some things to visit my second and third uncles, as well as my grandparents.

The gas station was relatively quiet after the Lunar New Year, and the repair shop next door was also nearly empty.

However, Yu Dawei no longer needs to worry about security. Since the surveillance cameras were installed, no suspicious people have been loitering around the gas station.

After returning from the oil city, Yu Dawei planned to proceed with the second step of the factory's development: relocation.

The oil city equipment factory always has spare space, so if you need to relocate, you only need to come back once when the truck fleet is not busy.

Just as Dawei returned to Fanfan Repair Shop, intending to discuss with everyone when to move the shop, an accident occurred.

Yu Dawei arrived at the repair shop around 9 a.m. after dropping his wife off at kindergarten.

But as soon as I entered, I saw Lao Ji standing in front of an excavator, being scolded like a grandson. And the person scolding him was none other than Lao Xu, whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

At this moment, Old Xu's hair was even whiter and hunched over, but his commanding presence remained as strong as ever.

Yu Dawei stopped the car and was about to go up and talk to Old Xu when he saw Old Ji secretly glancing at him and giving him meaningful glances.

Yu Dawei was completely baffled and stood there for a long time, not understanding what Lao Ji meant.

But it's probably because they don't want me to go up and greet Old Xu, but why?
Just then, Old Xu seemed to notice Old Ji looking in another direction. Following his gaze, he turned his head and his eyes met those of Yu Dawei, who was standing not far away.

"Mr. Xu, it's been a long time." Yu Dawei forced a smile and reached out to greet Mr. Xu.

"It's been a long time! You're really something! I know you're busy, but you can't neglect the repair shop!" Old Xu glanced at the white Land Cruiser behind Yu Dawei, then took a step forward and grabbed Yu Dawei's arm. "Come on! Let's see what your team leader has done to the car. Can an imported excavator be repaired like this?"

"Slow down, slow down, take care of yourself, don't be angry. Let me see what's going on." Yu Dawei was pulled in front of the imported Komatsu 360, and he glanced at Lao Ji helplessly as he passed by.

I have no idea what this old guy is doing. He's usually very meticulous when repairing cars, so why does he have to cause trouble when Old Xu comes?

"Look at this! Look at how he removed the drive gears! The engine oil is leaking all over the ground!" Old Xu slammed his cane on the ground twice.

Yu Dawei stood in front of the excavator's gears, looking down and remaining silent for a long time. Finally, he couldn't help but point to the ground where only snow remained: "Old Xu, this..."

"What's wrong with you! What kind of boss are you? You're gone for half a month at a time. I've told your dad so many times, you can take care of the car, but you have to manage the repair shop properly too. Whatever we do, we have to do it well. We can't have one car as our own and the other as our stepchild." Old Xu continued his nagging, still angry at his son's lack of ambition.

"Old Xu," Yu Dawei turned to look at the old man in front of him with a serious and worried expression, "How long has it been since we last saw each other?"

"More than half a month, you can't fool me, kid. I've been at the repair shop every day. I know you're not coming." Old Xu turned to Old Ji, "Come here, I'll teach you how to disassemble the drive gears properly. Draining the oil isn't the point; the point is there's still some residual oil inside. We have to do our work properly..."

"Old Xu, Old Xu!" Yu Dawei knew that Old Xu was not in a good state, so he quickly grabbed him. "Please come with me to the small room to rest and have some hot water. Let Old Ji calm down first, we can talk about it later. After all, he is the team leader in the factory now, isn't he?"

Upon hearing this, Mr. Xu calmed down and became much more composed.

But just then, an untimely voice suddenly entered the ears of the three of them.

"President Ji, most of the parts for the chain stores have been brought back, but there's no extra space in the warehouse. Could you tell me how to arrange it?"

The speaker was Qian Yin, who was holding a stack of documents in his hand: "Do you think we should just transport the parts to the oil city? These parts are all out of the warehouse, and you'll need them for car repairs sooner or later anyway."

As Qian Yin spoke, he walked up to several people, and it was then that he suddenly noticed that the boss and President Ji's expressions were not quite right.

The old man in front of him was even more bewildered. When he looked at him, he was first taken aback, and then his eyes were filled with confusion. "Who are you? What General Manager Ji? Even Boss Yu doesn't allow employees to call him General Manager Yu. You're calling a captain 'General Manager'?" Old Xu's eyes were sharp and cloudy.

"I, I am Qian Yin, the head of the parts department." Seeing that the boss and General Manager Qian's expressions were not good, Qian Yin did not dare to say anything more.

However, this sentence gave Old Xu something to focus on, and he was so angry that he immediately flew into a rage!

"Where did this brat come from! Isn't Da Feng always the head of the parts department? You're just here to cause trouble!" Old Xu's voice grew louder and louder.

At this time, more and more people in the factory came to watch the spectacle. In particular, the new apprentices, adhering to the principle of "if you don't eat the melon, you'll regret it for the rest of your life," stopped their maintenance work in the heated warehouse and peeked out.

At first, they thought it was Old Master Ji disciplining General Manager Ji. After all, everyone in the factory knew that Old Master Ji had a particularly bad temper, and General Manager Ji was a very filial son, so they often saw scenes of "father scolding son".

Although President Ji is often scolded by his own father, everyone admires him more. In terms of filial piety, it would be good if one in ten people could be as filial as President Ji.

But when I went outside, I found that it was a strange old man.

While everyone was staring at Old Xu, Old Xu was also looking at the many new faces.

In an instant, it felt as if his mind had split open, as if reality and illusion were beginning to separate and overlap. His pupils dilated, and his expression became fearful and panicked.

"Who are you all! Captain Ji, who are these people! How did they get into the warehouse? No! This warehouse isn't right either! Why is it gray? Wasn't it blue before?!"

Old Xu's breathing became more and more rapid, and he seemed to be possessed, looking at everything around him in horror!
"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu, please calm down. The factory has been repaired and reinforced in the last two years, and these apprentices are all new." Yu Dawei held Mr. Xu's arms with both hands, trying his best to explain and calm him down.

Unfortunately, when Old Xu turned around and saw Yu Dawei again, his expression became even more pained: "You're Dawei? How come you've lost so much hair?"

Yu Dawei: "..."

This is a rather awkward problem. Their family always had exceptionally thick hair before the age of thirty, but after thirty, they started to see signs of hair loss on both sides of their forehead.

But it's incomparable to the bald patch. People who have known him for a long time can't even tell that he's losing hair. Only people who haven't seen him for a long time will suddenly notice that the hair on his forehead seems to have thinned and that he looks a little bald.

Just as Yu Dawei was thinking about how to explain, Old Xu's gaze swept from Yu Dawei to the car he was driving.

"This car isn't right! It was definitely an unlicensed car just now! What happened? What's going on?!" Old Xu's mind began to break down. He forcefully shook off Yu Dawei's arm and reached out and grabbed wildly, as if grasping at some lifeline.

"Mr. Xu, please calm down. I'm Dawei." Yu Dawei was thinking of a solution, and Lao Ji beside him also began to explain, trying to get Mr. Xu to accept the reality of the factory.

"Old Xu, Da Feng is gone and already engaged in Kyoto. Old Master Yu has gone to Hohhot to help Er Yatou with her child. Your little apprentice Zhang Liang is now a market manager, and there's more..."

Old Ji wanted to say something more, but Old Xu seemed unable to bear it and suddenly fainted.

Fortunately, Yu Dawei reacted quickly, supporting Xu Lao's body tightly with both hands and lifting him up with a single effort: "Call 120! Get the county to come and pick him up!"

"Okay!" Old Ji didn't dare to delay. He watched as Yu Dawei carried Old Xu into the small house, then picked up Old Xu's cane and ran while making a phone call: "Hey! Transfer me to a big hospital in Qing County! Quickly have them send a car over!"

"You bunch of bastards, get back to work!" Old Ji reminded his employees.

All the employees behind him slunk away, and several of the older employees couldn't help but show worried expressions when they saw that it was actually Old Xu.

Meanwhile, Qian Yin, who was still standing there bewildered, really wanted to give himself a good beating!

Ever since he took over the parts department, nothing has gone smoothly for him; it's as if God is deliberately working against him.

What was supposed to be a simple discussion and feedback session has somehow escalated to the point where we need to call 120 (emergency services).

"I deserve to die!" Qian Yin said, blaming himself as he followed behind Lao Ji. It was clear that Lao Xu held a very important position in the eyes of the boss and President Ji.

After Yu Dawei put Old Xu on the kang (a heated brick bed) in the small house, he immediately called Old Xu's eldest son, Xu Younian. The call was quickly connected, but the voice on the other end was even more urgent than Yu Dawei's.

"Hey! Dawei! I was just about to call you. Is my dad there? I've been looking for him all night. He's lost!" The voice on the other end of the phone was urgent and even had a hint of crying in it.

It's hard to imagine that the person Yu Dawei is talking to on the phone is a prominent lawyer who holds a significant position in Harbin and even the entire Heilongjiang province.

“Don’t worry, Brother Xu. Your dad is with me, but I don’t know the specifics of what happened. He fainted after only a couple of words with me. I’ve already called 120.” Yu Dawei took a breath and said, “Go directly to the big hospital in Qing County. I’ll go to the town’s health center first to ask a doctor to come and take a look. If it’s not a big problem, I’ll drive Old Xu to the big hospital myself.”

"Okay! Thank you for your help, Dawei." There was joy, worry, and exhaustion in his voice on the phone.

"Brother Xu, let's not stand on ceremony, I'll hang up now."

"it is good!"

After hanging up the phone, Yu Dawei immediately drove to the town hospital and dragged Mi Yao, who was still on duty, over. She was the most skilled doctor in the town.

After Mi Yao came over, she carefully examined Old Xu and finally put down her stethoscope and said seriously, "Based on the current diagnosis, it is likely a mini neurogenic syncope, but we cannot guarantee that it may not be a brain-related syncope."

“It takes at least 20 minutes by car from the county hospital to get here. I suggest you drive the patient directly to the county hospital to avoid missing the critical time for treatment due to delays.”

"Okay! Let's go then!" Without saying a word, Yu Dawei picked up Old Xu and ran towards the car outside.

"Hey, slow down! The patient can't handle the jostling!" Mi Yao was speechless at Yu Dawei's anxious manner.
