Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 472 Traffic Accident

When I woke up the next day, it was already drizzling outside and the weather was finally not so hot anymore.

Open the window and the breeze feels quite comfortable.

It was only six o'clock, and the three brothers got up and started packing.

"Please take everything. If you forget, you won't have to make another trip."

"I understand." Silly Kid felt a little sorry that he didn't bring any local specialties.

After going downstairs, I carried the things directly to the car. The hotel owner, who is also Boss Wan's aunt, was still sleeping.

Running a hotel is the most tiring job, sometimes there are guests coming in the middle of the night.

The sound of the car starting still startled her, and she came over to greet him. Knowing that this was her nephew's superior, he didn't say anything nonsense like checking the house.

She also took a box of milk and a box of biscuits and put them in the car for them to eat on the way. She said a lot of good things to Boss Wan. I guess she had prepared these things a long time ago.

Whether in the south or the north, my aunt is always the closest relative.

"Aunt, I'm going back. Brother Wan will definitely take care of me."

After a few polite words, he quickly set off.

After passing two intersections, he took his brothers downstairs to have breakfast before continuing on his way.

The milk and biscuits are quite substantial. You don’t have to get off the bus to eat at noon. You can just have a simple meal and go home early.

The rain is still falling, but not heavy, so it has no effect on driving.

As for the current road conditions on national and provincial highways, the friction is very high, and there is no problem of not being able to brake when it rains.

We drove east all the way and it was already noon when we passed the boundary marker. We stopped to rest when we arrived at Qianshan.

He put some water in it and squatted under a shed on the side of the road to smoke a cigarette and take a break.

It is very uncomfortable to sit in the driving seat for a long time.

"Dahe, how long will it take to get home?"

"About five in the afternoon. Some trains are leaving, and it'll take two hours to get to Lujiang."

"You're awesome. You even changed the route when you came back."

"Haha, the map is marked, why not go?" Qin Dahe said with a smile.

When you ask a truck to deliver goods, ask someone to mark the route as well.

They are all very experienced, and the road they take must be easy and fast. Today's truck drivers have extremely high skills.

Of course, it makes a lot of money.

Qin Dahe earned 2200 yuan in freight for the 1500 kilograms of goods in one day. Excluding the cost of gas, he earned at least yuan.

This is a large truck. If it were a large semi-trailer, I heard that some people could earn back the money they paid for the car in just one year.

After the break, we continued driving and it was already 3:30 in the afternoon when we arrived in Xiang'an.

The rest of the road was familiar. The rain hadn't started yet and the ground was dry. We sped up and headed straight for the county town.

The speed did not slow down until we reached the traffic light in the south of the city. Although the road conditions were bad, there were fewer cars and it was really comfortable to drive.

Private cars on the road can only be seen sporadically.

Further ahead was the moat. I ran along the moat towards the east of the city. Just as I changed lanes, a Peugeot behind me hit my trunk with a "bang".

Qin Dahe quickly pulled over and got out to check the situation guiltily.

Erhu and the others also followed down.

The Land Cruiser was fine, but there was a dent on the back.

The Santana's airbags were deployed, and he quickly opened the car door.

"Fuck, why do you change lanes at will while driving?" A middle-aged man with a red face came down cursing.

Qin Dahe frowned. This guy was drinking and reeked of alcohol.

"You've never suffered any loss since you crashed my car into this."

"Ce, you hit me head-on, and I had already changed lanes." Qin Dahe said with a bad look.

He was originally prepared to pay the other party a thousand dollars. After all, he changed lanes first, and he would not tolerate the other party's aggressive behavior.

"I'll call the traffic police over."

Seeing the three strong men, the man didn't dare to curse them.

"Just shout."

The middle-aged man immediately called the traffic police. Although his license plate number was Anhui A, he was a local and was not afraid of seeing Anhui B.

Current law enforcement still has some geographical bias, which means it protects the weak.

Who would have thought that Qin Dahe, a native of Anhui, is also a local.

"Erhu, call home and tell them you'll be back after dinner." This matter will take at least a few hours today.

"Okay." Erhu knew what Qin Dahe meant and was afraid that his family would worry if they knew.

When the two traffic police arrived, both sides insisted on their own opinions and started arguing in front of the traffic police.

"Masters, the losses of both parties in this incident are almost the same. Can you please not hold each other accountable? We are all from the same village." The traffic police said sincerely.

The losses of both parties were similar. In the absence of cameras, it was difficult to determine the responsibility since both parties moved their cars.

"Fuck, my airbags have deployed, and the front bumper and fenders are deformed. It's going to cost at least two thousand dollars."

"I haven't calculated it yet. It costs more than a thousand yuan to repair my rear bumper." Qin Dahe sneered and opened the trunk to check it out.

There was no loss inside and everything was safely kept, so I finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Also, it was a head-on collision. I have already changed lanes, so I can definitely identify it." "Young master, your car will cost tens of thousands of dollars to repair at a repair shop. Why bother?" The traffic police deliberately spoke louder for the man to hear.

"What tens of thousands of dollars? My car is not money. Believe it or not, I will send someone to arrest you."

"Look, I'll see where you're going to call."

Looking at the other person coldly, he didn't believe that he could be bullied locally.

The two traffic policemen reluctantly took Qin Dahe's cigarette, lit it and took a deep breath, then sat on the curb dejectedly, waiting for the two sides to make a phone call.

It is really difficult to be a traffic policeman nowadays. There is no coward who can drive a car. Even those who drive illegal taxis in People's Square cannot be detained at will, let alone private cars.

If twenty years later, a drunk man got out of a Santana and was immediately stopped, no one would waste time talking to him.

When it comes to drunk driving, there is no room for negotiation unless there is a huge mountain behind you.

Qin Dahe vaguely heard the other party call someone in the Public Security Bureau. It was not the right person, but it was definitely effective.

He also called Tiedan's uncle. Since he was his nephew, he would definitely take care of any problems that occurred in the county. He just owed him a favor.

If that doesn't work, I can call Uncle Lei's secretary again. That level is definitely enough, but it's not necessary.

He also knows several fishing friends who work in the county, so calling them would be helpful at this time.

The entire system looks at level, not position. It doesn't have to be in the same unit, it can just be transferred in the middle.

Erhu's uncle was the leader of the armed forces after all. He didn't even ask him on the phone whether he was fully responsible, but just said he would help him.

Qin Dahe was very polite and said that as long as it was fair and just, he would accept the fine.

The idiot opposite is drunk and his mind is still unclear. He is bragging to his friends.

In a normal private car collision, the drivers will get off the car to greet each other and chat. If the determination of responsibility is unclear, the traffic police will be called over. If you are really at a disadvantage, there is no need to rush to find someone else.

Qin Dahe was not worried at all because of his noisy behavior.

After a while, the traffic police received two calls.

One was the team leader and the other was the deputy director in charge. They both spoke in a business-like manner and mentioned people's names.

This is easy to do. The collision marks of the two cars can be used to determine the division of responsibility.

The other party was directly found to be primarily responsible.

After more than half an hour of delay, the other party sobered up when the wind blew.

He first asked in a low voice about the price of the off-road vehicle. When he found out that it was the deputy director in charge who called, he accepted the penalty without saying a word.

If you hit a wall, you have to admit defeat.

"Also, because you were driving under the influence, your driver's license has been temporarily confiscated, and you have to go to the team to pay a fine." The traffic police said seriously that this was a procedural issue, unless someone else called.

Qin Dahe curled his lips. It seemed that this guy had drunk quite a lot of alcohol. If he were to be detained in the city, he would probably be locked up for another half a month.

But the management in this small county is not strict, and there is no administrative detention for drunk driving.

The next step was to assess the damage. Qin Dahe directly asked the owner of the auto repair shop where Tiedan worked to come over.

The matter was resolved satisfactorily, and he didn't intend to ask for a high price. He calculated the price based on the sheet metal price, not the replacement part price.

If you really want to be picky, the trunk door and bumper need to be replaced, which is not something that can be solved with just one or two thousand yuan.

In the end, Qin Dahe's car was damaged for 1800 yuan, while the other party's was yuan.

Although the other party's car was a bit miserable, it was very easy to repair because Santana entered China early, the ownership volume was high, and various original and aftermarket parts were cheap and complete.

In the end, he received 500 yuan in compensation and was allowed to repair the car himself.

Well, Qin Dahe didn’t buy vehicle damage insurance, so when he filed an insurance claim, he could only use the third-party liability insurance to help the other party repair the car, which didn’t save much money.

As for Santana, it was a bare car without any insurance.

Many people do this now, and can save thousands of dollars a year.

"Master, I'll send the car to you for repair next time. I just came back from Hubei and am in a hurry to go home." Qin Dahe handed over a bag of black pine.

"Haha, it's okay, you can come over anytime." The boss said indifferently.

He had experienced this many times. After the damage was determined, neither party would repair the car.

This time, I came here for Qin Dahe's sake. Normally, I would drive the car to the repair shop for a checkup.

Fortunately, the Santana suffered serious damage and the driver's license was also confiscated, so it must be driven back for repair.

He took a pack of cigarettes, made an appointment to have dinner together one day, and then went back.

The owner of the repair shop came here on a bike, so he had to ride his bike back first, and then bring people over to drive the bike to the repair shop, which could save the towing fee.

"Haha, get in the car, you'll get 400 yuan for free." Qin Dahe said proudly. He didn't plan to repair the car.

There are only zero and countless times to scratch this thing.

Of course, I said I got four hundred for free, but I owed him a favor.

It seems that Tiedan’s cousin is getting married in the second half of the year. I’ll ask her about it and give her a big red envelope.

Erhu and the others got into the car chatting and laughing. They were not afraid that Qin Dahe would suffer any loss, as they were very capable.

I started the car, the old V8 began to roar, and drove all the way to Tongjiang Avenue.

It's dark now and it seems to be drizzling, so I don't dare drive too fast.

"You're wasting my time, you idiot."

"That idiot, he's so arrogant even though he has an Anhui A license plate. If he wasn't in the county, we would have smashed his car long ago." Erhu said arrogantly.

Qin Dahe nodded, feeling both amused and helpless. This could really happen.

In the days before cameras, when traffic accidents occurred in rural areas, human feelings took precedence over legal principles.
