The Red Era: Starting from a Truck Driver

Chapter 82 Teaching
In fact, it’s not surprising that these people asked Jiang Cheng to help bring some of these things. The things may not be very good, but some people like to pursue things in big cities.

After I buy this toothpaste and toothbrush, when I use it, I will definitely tell people around me that I asked someone to buy it from Hucheng, and I can't buy it here.

Moreover, some men and women who are dating will say, "I asked someone to bring you something from Shanghai." The same thing as a gift is definitely much better than buying it locally.

So Jiang Cheng agreed to everyone's request and also planned to buy one for Zhou Lingying. He now likes and enjoys the feeling of his wife being obsessed with him.

Even the first girlfriend Jiang Cheng had when he was studying in the 21st century didn't give him this feeling as Zhou Lingying.

It's the feeling that you are her center and she will revolve around you as soon as you appear, which makes Jiang Cheng very happy.

This is also the case when Jiang Cheng watched an open-air movie in Huangtugang Commune last time. A female educated youth asked him to sing a duet, but he didn't want to offend her. If there is someone who only has eyes for you, even if Jiang Cheng is an experienced driver of Didi, he will be content.

Otherwise, to be honest, even the projectionist Zhang Tong could find a lover outside. Jiang Cheng didn't believe that he couldn't find a beautiful lover outside with his status.

Dispatcher Wu Yan contacted Rubber Factory No. 2 and informed the driver about the approximate time he would go there in the afternoon, and then handed the delivery note to Jiang Cheng.

This time, Jiang Cheng only needed to do one job in Shanghai. Because even if he used a Jiefang truck to carry the goods, he would need to temporarily add a guardrail to the rear compartment to raise it. Some things don’t weigh much per bag, but they take up space.

Just like the herbs Jiang Cheng sent last time, many of them were dried. If they were not very small particles, many herbs would not have much weight in a bag.

When traveling long distances, unless in special circumstances, heavy equipment is rarely transported. Generally, equipment is transported by ship or train.

Jiang Cheng's car was just right for the trip. When it rained, there was a tarpaulin to cover all the goods, and they also gave us raincoats and rubber shoes. The rubber shoes were placed at the bottom, and the raincoat was placed at the top, so there was nothing to worry about even if it rained.

With the delivery note in hand, Jiang Cheng went to the logistics department to approve the diesel application. This kind of thing could actually be solved by asking the clerk in the logistics department. Not everything had to be handled by Director Liu. The first few times he asked him to approve the diesel application, it was just because he had something to ask him.

If all drivers really have to come to him for diesel approval, then his workload will be too heavy. In fact, he only needs to be responsible for reviewing the work of his subordinates.

The driver went to the logistics department to ask for diesel bars, usually 100 liters for short-distance trips. Jiang Cheng took the delivery note and asked for 500 liters.

According to the fuel consumption of the Yellow River car, an average of 25 liters of oil is used for 100 kilometers. The last time I went to Yancheng, it was 2,000 kilometers round trip. 500 liters is the most basic, this time it is a little closer, but it is normal to give more approval for diesel.

Anyway, every month someone checks where the drivers have been and how much diesel they have used. It is normal to use more or less. For something that costs eight cents a liter, a few dozen liters of error is nothing.

Moreover, there were no private cars in those days, and the drivers would at most use the public bus for personal purposes, wasting a little diesel, but they would never steal diesel and use it elsewhere.

After coming out of the office building, Jiang Cheng returned to the car. Feng Hua and several other apprentices were squatting beside the car waiting for him.

Jiang Cheng had just accepted an apprentice and wanted to kill some time, so he first took Feng Hua around the car slowly. As they walked, he asked about some of the car parts that could be seen on the surface, asking the other party what they were and whether he understood the working principle and structure of each part.

The car apprenticeship of this era was not as simple as the driver's license test in later generations. Driving was just one of the things to learn. Feng Hua's father was a driver, so he had some basics. But maybe he had been studying before, so he didn't really teach much. And the parameters of different models are also different.

If Feng Hua couldn't answer a question, Jiang Cheng would explain it to him again. This was the first time he taught him. Jiang Cheng wouldn't do anything to Feng Hua, but after teaching him, if he couldn't answer the next question, he would have to teach him a lesson.

So while Jiang Cheng was talking, Feng Hua was also taking notes in a small notebook. After a circle, Jiang Cheng told him to take tools and remove the engine cover.

When removing the hood, it was obvious that Feng Hua's hands-on skills were not good enough. Before the accident, his father Feng Lin had asked the company if he could recruit his son as an apprentice. Jiang Cheng guessed that it was at that time that Feng Hua learned some basic knowledge about cars in advance.

After removing the engine cover, Jiang Cheng carefully taught him how to check the engine oil, coolant, as well as the structure and function of many engine components.

Jiang Cheng spoke very slowly, and of course he didn't intend to finish everything. He first talked about some of the normal maintenance things that need to be done every time.

After talking for a while, I asked him to go get some oil to add, and then get some water from the bucket to add some water to the car. Finally, I closed the hood again and tightened the screws.

After finishing everything, Jiang Cheng gave him the joystick key to see if it could be turned. Then he found that Feng Hua was a little bit bad. He just came from a well-off family, ate more than others, and looked a little stronger than others.

But in this era, Jiang Cheng found that it was really impossible to judge a person's strength from this aspect. In this era, a woman can carry hundreds of kilograms of things, and you can't understand where her strength comes from.

Feng Hua had to practice his strength. It wasn't that he couldn't turn the rocker key, but he had no strength left, and it was difficult to keep steady. Jiang Cheng wouldn't let him try again in this situation. He had to go to the hospital with his father because he was exhausted.

Although Feng Hua was not allowed to start the engine, Jiang Cheng still gave some advice on force techniques and rotation rhythm after taking the key.

"Get in the car and go to the gas station with me to fill up the gas." Jiang Cheng shouted to Feng Hua after starting the car, then he got in the driver's seat.

When asking your apprentice to do some work, there is no need to discuss it with him or give him any orders. You can just speak to him in a commanding tone.

Feng Hua got into the car immediately after hearing Jiang Cheng's words. In the car, Jiang Cheng was also telling him about the clutch and transmission, how to use it, and its working principles.

Soon Jiang Cheng drove to the gas station. He brought Feng Hua over to have him fill the empty oil barrel with oil. He just taught him something in passing.

If it weren't for the fact that the station here requires not only a diesel approval slip but also the driver's signature, Jiang Chengdu would not get off the bus. The driver doesn't need to pay for the signature, and the gas station will send someone to the bus station to reconcile the accounts on the due date.

As an automobile apprentice, Feng Hua’s salary was just an allowance, so there was no point in his signing.

After filling up his gas tank at the gas station, Jiang Cheng drove back to the transportation station, where the finance department had already begun distributing wages and benefits to employees.

　The monthly tickets for the festival are doubled. Please give me some monthly tickets, so that I can easily get 1,000 monthly tickets later this month. Thank you. I am still writing pitifully during the festival.
