Volume 47 Chapter 31
Even though it was just dawn, when Zhang Tie walked out of the airport, he found that the outside of the airport had already become lively.
The airport was built more than 20 kilometers outside the city, and it was still a long way from Dongyang City. It used to be a deserted saline-alkali land, but now, a small-scale market town has formed around the airport.
There are two bustling commercial streets outside the airport. There are restaurants, restaurants and various shops on the streets. As the sun comes out, breakfast has begun to be sold in these restaurants and restaurants.
Some taxis were already waiting in the parking lot outside the airport, waiting for business to arrive. Among those taxis, Zhang Tie looked at them. Two-thirds of them were traditional coal-fired steam vehicles, and one-third , are already taxis using candle oil, but compared to military off-road vehicles, these taxis also use dual-drive engines, but the displacement of the engines is smaller, basically below 1.0 liters. In the past two years, With more and more dual-drive engines of different types and displacements launched by Zhulongling, these small-displacement dual-drive engines are now changing the lives of people in Zhulongling.
In addition to these ordinary cars, many engines have even been installed on the agricultural machinery in the field, such as the combine harvester and multi-purpose tractor in the field. After using the dual-drive engine, the work efficiency has been greatly improved. Increase, greatly improving the labor efficiency in the field.
"Om..." With a roar, a two-wheeled motorcycle rushed out from the exit of the underground garage of the airport behind Zhang Tie. The rider on the vehicle was wearing a pilot-like helmet and a leather jacket. .
The roar of the motorcycle engine attracted the attention of many people on the street. The rider enjoyed the side-eye feeling very much, and with a bang on the accelerator, he rode away and disappeared into the street.
The advent of the dual-drive engine also made motorcycles, which Zhang Tie had only seen in the materials before the cataclysm, reappear, and became more numerous, and was loved by some people. , before there was no candle oil, the size of its engine and the uncoordinated contradiction between power and control made the probability of motorcycles appearing on the streets in this era so low that it could be ignored. Occasionally, factories or mechanics made them. Several two-wheeled motorcycles looked like monsters, too ugly to be seen, and their driving convenience, safety and comfort were greatly reduced.
Zhang Tie looked at the motorcycles speeding away and those candle oil cars that could be used as taxis, and a strange feeling that even he couldn't tell apart surged in his heart.
Finally, Zhang Tie smiled, shook his head, and boarded an ordinary steam taxi...
...
"Ah, the road is being built ahead, my car can't get through, so I can only take you here..." The taxi took Zhang Tie,
It took only half an hour to arrive at a place.
The road in front of this place is being repaired. There are a lot of building materials and stones piled up on the side of the road. It is difficult for taxis to pass. At dawn, many people are already working on the side of the road in full swing, in a cloud of dust. Among them, several camel machines were making loud noises, crushing those stones...
"Okay, just send me here, and I can do the rest by myself..."
"If you want to go to Tian'en Town, there are still two or three kilometers away. This road is not easy to walk, and there is no car. The last time I came here, it was a dirt road, and it was basically passable. Now it is estimated that it will have to be reopened. It will take some time to repair the dirt road into a highway..." the driver kindly reminded.
"Master, I have something to discuss with you. I'll give you a gold coin. You wait for me here. When I come back, you can send me back to the airport!!"
"Ah, you're not joking with me anymore, are you trying to deceive me?" The taxi driver looked at Zhang Tie suspiciously, "Even if you let me wait here for a day, you don't need ten silver coins, you say give me one gold coin, Let me wait here stupidly, and if you run away, I don't have a single gold coin, and I still pay you the fare for this trip, and today's business is also delayed, who should I ask for reason? You think I'm stupid..."
Zhang Tie was taken aback for a moment, then laughed, and directly took out a gold coin and handed it to the taxi driver, "I'll pay you the gold coin first, just wait for me here, if I haven't come back by the evening, you can pay by yourself go first!"
After weighing the gold coin with his hands, the suspicion on the taxi driver's face turned into a bright smile, "Okay, then I'll wait for you here, don't say wait for a day, it's fine to wait for a week... "
Zhang gave the driver a gold coin, and then got out of the car. The driver also turned the car around and stopped under the shade of a tree on the side of the road.
...
The place where Zhang Tie got off was a newly built farm and market town more than 60 kilometers outside Dongyang City.
It was easy for people to pass through places that cars could not pass. Zhang Tie didn't feel that the road was dirty, so he walked along the drainage ditch built with stones and cement by the side of the road, all the way to the distance.
There are patches of farmland on the side of the road. It is April, and the farmland is gratifyingly green, and the beans are growing gratifyingly. At this moment, the sky is completely bright, and there are people working in the fields one after another.
Just like in the fields, there are road workers everywhere on the road. These road workers live in tents on the side of the road. Except for children, there are men, women and children. Although the accommodation conditions are not good, they are working At that time, everyone's morale was very high, everyone's eyes were full of hope, and there were joyful smiles on their faces. Some people sang labor chants, and the chants came and went, attracting the surrounding People should and.
"Everyone, do your best..."
"Hey yo... Hey yo..."
"Come fix the road..."
"Hey yo... Hey yo..."
"Fix this road..."
"Hey yo... Hey yo..."
"Every family has a rush..."
"Hey yo... Hey yo..."
The tune of that chant is full of enthusiasm, with the unique rhythm of the local Chinese dialect, which has a strong appeal. accent.
Along the way Zhang Tie walked, he didn't see a lazy person. Everyone was working happily amidst laughter and singing. Perhaps at this time, only these laborers can truly feel that a person can work and use How happy and hard-earned it is to create your own home by hand.
In the eyes of others, this kind of scene may just be interesting, but in Zhang Tie's eyes, it makes Zhang Tie feel extremely satisfied. The rough and straightforward labor chant is heard in Zhang Tie's ears. like the sound of nature...
