The Red Era: Starting from a Truck Driver

Chapter 56 It’s time to enjoy
"Lingying."

"What's wrong~?"

"You're so pretty."

"Why are you talking about this?"

Even though they had slept together before, Zhou Lingying felt shy again when Jiang Cheng suddenly praised her like this.

This is just a sweet episode on the road. Now I like him very much and think that everything on his body is fragrant. Maybe in the future, your life will be miserable and the food you bite will dislike your saliva on it.

Soon the two arrived at the place where they parked yesterday, but Jiang Cheng knew that he would not leave so quickly because Secretary Wang of the commune was squatting next to him smoking.

Jiang Cheng first opened the car door and let Zhou Lingying get in, and then asked her to take the box of clothes and quilt.

"Wait in the car. Secretary Wang may want to talk to me about something. I want to talk to him for a while."

Jiang Cheng said to Zhou Lingying in the car, and when she nodded, he went to find Secretary Wang.

Secretary Wang felt a little embarrassed when he saw Jiang Cheng coming over. After all, they blocked the way every time Jiang Cheng came. When he came back yesterday, he asked him for help, and he came to see him early this morning.

But today Secretary Wang had no choice. After Jiang Cheng and the accountant of the commune went to the agricultural machinery factory yesterday, the factory called. The meaning was very simple. If Jiang Cheng could help get a diesel engine from the diesel engine factory in Changcheng, they would be willing to provide Jinhe Commune with a handrail tractor.

In fact, each county has a quota for diesel engines, but it does not mean that you can buy a diesel engine just because you have a quota. You have to queue up, just like when a commune wants a tractor, the better commune gets priority.

Secretary Wang actually knows Jiang Cheng now, and knows that he has just started working at Changcheng Transport Station. He thinks that even if Jiang Cheng is a truck driver, he should have nothing to do with Changcheng Diesel Engine Factory.

But yesterday, someone from the agricultural machinery factory said that as long as Jiang Cheng was a driver of the Changcheng Transport Station, there would be no problem. Jiang Cheng had no connections with the diesel engine factory, but the transport station had a cooperative relationship with them.

Jiang Cheng is a driver, not an ordinary employee of the transport station. As long as Jiang Cheng can get a word from the leaders of his unit, the diesel engine quota in their county may be given priority, and they may even be able to sell one or two extra units.

Now, Secretary Wang has the audacity to ask Jiang Cheng for help so that the commune can have its own tractor, even if it is a hand-held tractor.

"Master Jiang, it's time to leave." Seeing Jiang Cheng coming, Secretary Wang took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed him one and said.

"Yes, I still have a lot of things to do when I return to the city." Although he knew the answer, Jiang Cheng still answered politely. After thinking for a while, he continued, "Secretary Wang, just tell me what you want to say."

Secretary Wang saw that Jiang Cheng asked so directly, so he directly explained the matter. And being able to sit in his position, it is impossible for him to just make people work in vain.

As long as this is accomplished, Secretary Wang can arrange a job as a scorekeeper for Jiang Cheng's sister, and transfer her to the production team in Kaiyang Village as a scorekeeper.

As for Jiang Cheng's sister-in-law Li Xianglan, she was not arranged because she could only write her own name and did not know other characters. But Jiang Cheng's sister Jiang Yan also went to elementary school and could write and count to some extent.

If Jiang Cheng doesn't want her sister to be a scorekeeper, she can also bring up other ideas. This is an exchange of interests, anyway, Jiang Cheng won't help for nothing.

Jiang Cheng never thought that Secretary Wang would come to him this time for the county's agricultural machinery factory. He wanted to refuse directly because he had never dealt with the diesel engine factory and didn't think he had such a big reputation as a driver.

Even if the leaders in the unit can really ask the diesel engine factory to give face, Jiang Cheng will definitely have to use his connections and may even have to spend a little money.

But Jiang Cheng had to consider Secretary Wang's proposal to take care of the family members. "Okay, I'll make a note of it. We'll talk about it later." Jiang Cheng finally said to Secretary Wang. After all, he still had to ask Station Master Xu in the unit to see if it could be done. He didn't dare to guarantee it.

"Master Jiang, please wait a moment." After hearing Jiang Cheng's agreement, Secretary Wang knew that he was leaving, so he asked him to wait a moment again. Then he turned around and called a commune clerk not far away and said, "Go and get the things quickly."

Seeing this, Jiang Cheng was happy. Secretary Wang was a man who would not act until he saw the rabbit. He asked people to get the things only after he promised the other party to try to do the work. If he hadn't agreed, he might have taken the things anyway.

When the commune clerk heard the order, he ran over immediately and came back with a backpack basket in a short while.

There is no need to be too direct about this. Secretary Wang would not give Jiang Cheng money or expensive cigarettes and alcohol to help him with his work. That would be considered bribery and a violation of rules and regulations.

But it was different when they gave some local specialties. There was a piece of gray cloth covering the basket, and Jiang Cheng opened it to see that they were all good things. Jiang Cheng didn't hesitate to put them in the car and told Secretary Wang that he would do it as soon as possible.

The baskets were filled with dried mountain products, mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, and dried red dates and red peppers. These things were worthless in the countryside, but they were not easy to get in the city, and the key was that there were a lot of them.

Secretary Wang asked Jiang Cheng to arrange these things, but Jiang Cheng planned to accept them himself. If he really wanted to give gifts, Jiang Cheng had other things.

Besides, he was not like other drivers who handled things privately. Jiang Cheng handled a lot of things for the unit's logistics department.

Of course, it was also because Jiang Cheng could get enough things. If he didn't have the space to carry around, he would probably first improve his own life after getting something, and then help others bring some goods to earn some extra money if he had good relationships with them.

After dealing with Secretary Wang, Jiang Cheng returned to the car and started it. He could finally take his wife back to the city. In the future, he would have someone to talk to on boring nights, and he could also study life.

On the way to the city, Jiang Cheng wanted to experience what it felt like to be a big boss in this era.

"Lingying, my shoulders are a little tired, help me massage them." Jiang Cheng tried to give instructions to Zhou Lingying who was sitting in the back of the car. Zhou Lingying was not sitting in the passenger seat, so the back seat was actually quite comfortable for lying down.

"Jiang Cheng, driving must be very tiring for you." Zhou Lingying, who was being ordered, did not feel at all that Jiang Cheng was acting like an upper class man. After hearing his words, she directly helped him massage his shoulders and neck.

"It's hard work for sure. I'm married now, and you'll have to give birth to my children in the future, so I have to work hard to support the family. Lingying, can you light another cigarette for me? I'll take a puff to get more excited while driving." Jiang Cheng continued, now that he had his wife, it was time to enjoy himself.

Sure enough, Zhou Lingying obeyed Jiang Cheng's words very obediently. She thought that it was inconvenient for Jiang Cheng to light a cigarette while driving, so she used a match to help him light a cigarette.

In fact, Jiang Cheng has no addiction to smoking. He only smokes pretend smoke, not into his lungs. Sometimes he is too bored, so he will take the initiative to put a cigarette in his mouth for fun. When he is busy, it is normal for him not to smoke a cigarette for a long time.

"By the way, Lingying, I drove out of town a few days ago. I was sweating and my clothes were dirty, so I simply rinsed them when I saw water outside. We live in the city, and I have two sets of clothes that are not washed very cleanly. You have to help me wash them when the time comes." After the cigarette was lit, Jiang Cheng continued.

"Well, Jiang Cheng, didn't we agree that from now on you will be in charge of the outside affairs and I will be in charge of the inside affairs? You can leave all the housework to me." Zhou Lingying continued to answer.

Jiang Cheng was very satisfied with Zhou Lingying's attitude. He wanted to find a wife like this. If Zhou Lingying didn't obey, Jiang Cheng would beat her.

But now it has come to this point, they have truly become husband and wife, and Jiang Cheng and Zhou Lingying are in love with each other. But Jiang Cheng is really moved, and he can't bring himself to do it to a woman. He was just thinking about it for fun before.

　The new book list will be on for a few days, so please give me some monthly tickets and recommendation tickets. I'd be even more grateful if you give me rewards. It will be a month on the new book list in a week. When it's off the list, I promise not to bother you.

I feel like the latest chapters are going to be blocked, and any slightest hint of the male and female protagonist being together will be censored.
