Siheyuan: Struggle Begins in the 1950s

Chapter 93 The Journey is Difficult

After having supper, Wang Jianjun put the remaining things into the space to destroy the evidence.

With nothing to do, he simply continued to update his new novel "Blocking the Sun".

By the way, his previous novel, "The Biography of Magical Boy Potter", is almost finished.

Wang Jianjun plans to review his English when he has time. This book probably won’t be popular in China, so he still needs to translate it into English and publish it abroad to earn money from foreigners.

After updating more than ten chapters in a row, driver squad leader Nie Rong also stood up.

Seeing that Wang Jianjun was the only one there, he couldn't help but frown and said:

"You're left alone to watch the night after purchasing a group?"

"What's wrong?"

"It normally takes two people to keep watch, just in case one person falls asleep due to exhaustion."

Wang Jianjun spread his hands helplessly:

"Then you have to ask Li Jun. He was the one who arranged the night watch. I did my duty conscientiously that night."

The squad leader was also a little helpless. Those people in Group 1 were all relatives of the boss, so how could he, as the squad leader of the driver squad, dare to say anything to them?

"Thank you for your hard work this time. Next time you encounter this situation, you can ask our driver team to help."

Wang Jianjun waved his hands to indicate that these were all trivial matters and he just wanted to take this opportunity to have a meal alone.

While he was talking, several drivers stood up.

A group of people boiled a pot of water, brewed some high-grade tea to refresh themselves, and then woke up another group of people to prepare to set off.

In order to be able to stay in a guesthouse in the next city the next night, the convoy had to be ready to set off around four in the morning.

I only had less than three hours of rest that night.

The drivers have been used to this for years.

Only the people in the purchasing group could not adapt to it.

Being forcibly woken up after only two or three hours of sleep a night is simply torture.

I had no choice but to force myself to get up, pack up and get ready to leave.

When passing by the campfire, a buyer with a sharp nose twitched his nose and said he seemed to smell the smell of barbecue.

As a result, he was ridiculed by a group of buyers, who said that he was hallucinating because he was greedy for meat.

The group of people ate something quickly and started to get busy. Wang Jianjun found a truck that could not carry much cargo and jumped on it.

He took out a quilt and pillow from the space, wrapped himself in it, and fell asleep.

Having a pillow is a rare enjoyment, and most people just fold thick clothes and use them as pillows.

The convoy continued to move forward. Li Jun and his companions looked listless all the way because they had only slept for two or three hours.

It turned out that they were thinking of staying in a guesthouse in the next city.

But as expected, accidents happened and two cars broke down on the road one after another.

This is actually very common, after all, the quality of cars in this era is not that good.

In addition to being able to drive, the driver must also have some simple car repair skills.

Several hours were wasted on repairing the car, which resulted in the convoy being unable to reach the next city in time.

There was no choice but to continue camping in the wild that night.

This time it was the purchasing team's turn to be on night watch.

Li Jun and his group looked at each other, and finally decided to have the two with the weakest connections to keep watch.

Wang Jianjun went back to his car early and went to sleep.

The truck he chose happened to be just big enough for him to sleep in.

There is no one around, so if I can't sleep at night, I might as well go into the space and take a nap.

So he slept the most comfortably that whole night.

When the driver team leader got up, he found that the two buyers were actually lying on the ground sleeping.

Two people who were on guard fell asleep?

He was so angry that he started cursing at the two of them.

A group of people's lives are in their hands, and these two dare to sleep.

If we were to encounter a robbery in the middle of the night, we would be wiped out.

The two men realized they were in the wrong after being scolded, but they didn't feel like refutating and could only accept it.

The driver squad leader scolded them but was too lazy to pay any more attention to them.

The convoy continued on.

But on the third day, the weather was not good.

Suddenly it started to rain heavily.

Even in heavy rain, vehicles dare not drive too fast.

So at night we had to sleep outdoors.

Rainy days are the most troublesome.

Others can rest in the car, but the night watchers must light a fire and keep watch under the awning outside.

It is too dangerous to light a fire in the car, and you can't see clearly when keeping watch without a fire.

No one in the group was willing to go for such a painful task, and finally Li Jun decided to decide by drawing lots.

Those two people were lucky enough to escape last night.

Among the two lucky winners drawn in the end, Li Jun happened to be one of them.

Looking at the marked sign in his hand, Li Jun's mouth twitched.

What the hell is this luck? It’s so unlucky!

Wang Jianjun didn't sleep much that night.

Rainy weather and midnight snacks go perfectly together.

Tonight's midnight snack was fried chicken and soda.

With such heavy rain, he didn't have to worry about the smell and sound being heard when eating in the car.

Wang Jianjun had a very comfortable night. He liked rainy weather.

Especially the feeling of not having to go out and just staying at home and listening to the sound of rain outside.

Li Jun, who was on guard outside at night, suffered a lot.

He only brought two thick clothes this time, and if the one he was wearing got wet, he would have nowhere to change on the road.

So he huddled himself up with his gun in his arms all night, and covered himself with two raincoats for fear of getting wet.

Fortunately, I prepared an iron bucket when I came, and I also picked up some more firewood last night.

It was wet and cold on a rainy day, so the two could only stay as close to the burning iron barrel as possible to keep themselves warm.

When the rain had almost stopped, Li Jun impatiently urged the driver team to get ready to set off.

He had had enough of this horrible weather, and now he just wanted to go to the guesthouse and take a hot bath.

The transport team took nearly five days to travel this distance.

It took a day and a half longer than originally scheduled.

In addition to various force majeure factors, it was mainly because of Li Jun.

This guy is the temporary person in charge of this procurement mission.

This was because I hadn’t slept well for several days, and the clothes I brought were wet.

So when passing through a small town, this guy simply asked the transport team to stop and rest for half a day.

When the group arrived at their destination, Chifeng City, transport teams from other factories had already arrived.

Li Jun, who was the temporary person in charge of this purchase, felt a little embarrassed because he had slowed down the purchase progress.

The group first pulled the goods to the warehouse for handover.

After counting and unloading the goods, the group drove the truck to the ranch transfer station to transport the livestock.

Everyone along the way was as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

In order to entertain them, the city of Chifeng would kill a few sheep and roast them whole to entertain them in the evening after the transaction was completed.

This is the only time in these days that I can eat meat to my heart's content.

Is there anything more exciting for ordinary people in this day and age than eating meat?

Even Wang Jianjun was looking forward to it.

Roasted whole lamb, another delicacy that I have never eaten in my previous life.
