Siheyuan: Sending my younger brother to the countryside to raise pigs

Yan Jiecheng was lying in front of the car repairing it, while Li Zhengdong was standing by and watching.

Li Zhengdong was a little curious, "Little comrade, your craft is quite good. This thing is a rare item, not available among the common people. Where did you learn this skill? Did you serve in the army before?"

It's no wonder he had such doubts. In this era, cars mostly only existed in the military and were indeed rare among civilians, not to mention that they had learned a lot of good skills.

Yan Jiecheng started thinking quickly about how to cover up the lie, and soon came up with an idea.

This matter was definitely related to the army, so I simply made up a story about an elder who was a mechanic in the army.

"No. But one of my elders was a repairman in the army, and he taught me all this."

It is impossible to master such sophisticated techniques without long-term practical training and only verbal instruction. This kid is obviously hiding something.

Li Zhengdong didn't ask too many questions, nor did he have too many doubts.

It's normal for them to hide something since they just met.

Yan Jiecheng quickly found the problem, and after some repairs, he closed the hood.

"The problem has been solved. I don't know if there are any other problems. I need to get in the car and try it."

"Now that I've handed it over to you, everything is up to you. Try it as you like."

Yan Jiecheng nodded, opened the car door, and got back into the driver's seat.

He turned the key, and with the roar of the engine, the car started slowly, drove forward a few meters, and after making sure there were no problems, it returned to the two of them.

Li Zhengdong didn't expect that the young man could actually repair the car and even drive it. He couldn't help but smile in appreciation.

Yan Jiecheng opened the car door and jumped out. "Okay, the car has been repaired. There's nothing wrong with it."

As he spoke, he habitually tidied up the toolbox and handed it to Wang Shuwen.

Wang Shuwen took the toolbox and walked towards the trunk.

Li Zhengdong patted Yan Jiecheng on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Not bad, that's amazing. I thought you were bragging, but I didn't expect you to actually fix it. Haha, we can't let you work for nothing. Tell me, how much is the car repair cost? We'll pay you."

Yan Jiecheng waved his hands quickly, "No, no, it's just a small favor. To be honest, I should thank you. I haven't touched a car for a long time, and seeing it parked on the side of the road, I feel a little itchy.

Now that I have helped you solve your problem, I feel relieved. We have both gotten what we wanted. Please don't be offended. This is an occupational disease."

"Occupational disease!?"

Li Zhengdong was stunned for a moment. Although the words were new, it was not difficult to understand what they meant. He just thought that the young man in front of him was very interesting.

"Haha, you have a good disease. If all walks of life had your disease, wouldn't our country be thriving and technologically advanced?"

Yan Jiecheng felt a little ashamed.

I thought to myself, please don't say such things. If people in every industry and profession really develop occupational diseases, you would be drowned in saliva.

He really didn't expect that the occupational disease that was criticized in his time would be rectified by Li Zhengdong. Not only did it become noble, but it also affected the vigorous development of the motherland.

What could he say?

We can't say that this word is bad, wouldn't that hinder the development of our motherland?

"Yes Yes."

He didn't want to talk about it anymore.

Seeing that it was almost noon, he quickly changed the subject and said, "I don't think you two look like drivers. Can you drive?"

Li Zhengdong shook his head. "No. After the car broke down, I sent the driver to the city to call for help. I don't know when they will be here."

Yan Jiecheng thought for a moment and said, "You should have seen what happened just now. To be honest, I can drive, and I also need to go back to the city. If you are at ease, why don't you let me drive you into the city?"

Hearing this, Li Zhengdong was immediately happy.

"Haha, Comrade Xiao Yan, I've been waiting for you to say this. You've helped us a lot today. Get in the car!"

"Okay, okay. You get in the car first. I'll put my stuff in the trunk first so as not to dirty your car."

As he spoke, Yan Jiecheng walked to the back of the car carrying his fishing gear and bucket.

When passing by Li Zhengdong, Li Zhengdong lowered his head and glanced at the bucket.

"Oh, that's great, Comrade Xiao Yan. It looks like we've got a good catch today. The big one must weigh three or four pounds."

"You have a really good eye. You can tell the weight of the fish at a glance. I was lucky today. I caught a lot of fish today after so many times of fishing."

Not only did he catch a big fish, but he also caught an important person. This scene is a bit similar to Jiang Taigong.

Yan Jiecheng put away his fishing gear, got into the cab, closed the door, and started the car.

Accompanied by the roar of the engine, the car slowly moved forward.

Holding the steering wheel, the long-lost feeling of familiarity came back again. Yan Jiecheng felt extremely excited, and as the car bumped up and down, he felt like he was sitting on clouds.

At first, the two people in the car were a little worried, but after starting, they realized that the guy was not lying.

Judging from his skills, he must have at least three to five years of driving experience.

Li Zhengdong exclaimed: "Great, Comrade Xiao Yan, you can not only repair cars, but also drive. It's amazing."

"You are too kind. Someone who can drive may not be able to repair a car, but someone who can repair a car must be able to drive. Although this car looks like a cold iron shell, it has a temper just like a horse."

Li Zhengdong found this remark very interesting and couldn't help laughing.

"Haha, that's not only funny, but also makes sense. It's not that I have a bad temper. I'm probably just in a bad mood today and gave up halfway."

The three people in the car were all happy.

Yan Jiecheng felt more and more relaxed.

In his impression, leaders of this level are always aloof and out of touch with the world, but he didn't expect this person to be so approachable.

Maybe it's because the times are different.

Li Zhengdong continued to ask: "Comrade Xiao Yan, I remember that today is not a day off. Why did you run so far to fish instead of going to work? Could it be that you are here to cultivate your sentiments?"

Yan Jiecheng's heart trembled, thinking that it had come.

I don't know if I can catch the boss's eye.

He was just wondering how to bring up his situation, but unexpectedly the big boss took the initiative to speak.

Although it is difficult to find a job these days, if a leader of this level asks for help, you can easily get into any state-owned enterprise in the whole city.

If I were chosen to drive for him, or recommended to other leaders, wouldn't I be able to ascend to heaven directly?

Yan Jiecheng suppressed his excitement and pretended to be calm and said: "Well, please don't criticize me. I am not cultivating my sentiments. It is obvious that I have no job and can't stay idle at home. In addition, there are many people in my family, so I come out to fish to improve my life."

Hearing this, the two people in the car were stunned at the same time and looked at Yan Jiecheng together, as if trying to judge whether what he said was true or false.

Is it true that he has no job, or is it that he has a lousy job and now that he has met a noble person, he wants to use that noble person's help to change it.

If it's the former, there's no problem.

If it is the latter, then this person's character is questionable.
