Chapter 56: A Good Car Should Be Charged More
When Liu Yang left, Zhang Jing didn't come out to see him off. Out of gratitude for Liu Yang's recommendation, Su Hong stood on the steps and waved frequently to the cars driving out of the government compound.
The two cars drove out in tandem, making the people watching the excitement with envious expressions in the city government compound suddenly lose their interest in discussing.
No matter whether you are envious or jealous, he has really become the county magistrate. If you are unhappy, you can only blame yourself for your incompetence.
Originally, Liu Yang didn't plan to drive there by himself, but as soon as Yao Peng met, he said that he wanted to take the Mercedes-Benz off-road of County Magistrate Liu and experience the taste of a high-end car. Looking at the vague and deep meaning in his eyes, Liu Yang finally decided to drive his own Mercedes-Benz to take up the post.
And Minister Yao really let his driver drive behind him, and he got into Liu Yang's car.
Originally, Liu Yang felt that Minister Yao had something to say to him in the car, but after getting in the car, Yao Peng gently leaned on the seat, closed his eyes and fell asleep, apparently he had nothing to say mean.
Not far from the urban area, the two cars turned from the South Ring Road onto the road leading to Huling County.
Driving in a section of Nantang Town, which still belongs to the city's central district, the roads are fairly wide, lined with greenery, and the car is fairly comfortable to drive. However, after leaving the road section of Nantang Town and driving into Huling County for more than ten kilometers, potholes appeared on the road. A few kilometers further on, there are more and more large and small pits on the road.
At the beginning, Liu Yang was able to evade in the same direction, but later, when it was really inevitable, he didn't have the mood to dodge at all.
From the rearview mirror, he saw that Minister Yao's Audi car had been dumped and disappeared. Only then did Liu Yang know that he got in his car because he was interested in the advanced shock absorption performance of Mercedes-Benz off-road.
This road is the only way to Huling County, and it is also the main traffic route from Renzhou City to Jiangnan Province. During the Chinese New Year years ago, Liu Yang also walked back to his hometown. Although he took a bus at that time, But I didn't feel that this road was so difficult to walk.
It's only been a little over half a year, how did it become like this? I didn't see how many carts pulling goods passed by on the road. Why is the road damaged so badly?
Yao Peng closed his eyes, as if he knew what Liu Yang was thinking, opened his mouth and gave a wry smile, and said in a low voice, "Is it strange in your heart? Don't worry, you will know if you go further..."
When the car drove onto a bridge that closed the right lane and was under maintenance, Liu Yang finally understood the meaning of Yao Peng's words.
At a glance, there is a four-lane toll booth at the other end of the bridge. Vehicles of various models have already formed a long queue at the southern end of the toll booth.
Renzhou City is 59 kilometers away from Huling County, and it is basically only half of the distance here.
"Do you know why few cars pass by on this road? Since the Linzhuang Mine started production last year, this road has basically been abandoned. Now the car going to Jiangnan Province would rather take a detour. I don't want to take this road if I go south for more than a hundred miles..." Yao Peng, who had been sitting in the seat with his eyes closed, suddenly sat up straight at this moment. "Hurry up, fortunately the toll booth has not been released yet, otherwise we will not be able to get through..."
"Doesn't the toll booth come with a car and let it go at any time after charging the fee for a car? Why do they have to go through uniformly? Doesn't this delay more time and easily block the traffic?" Liu Yang asked puzzled.
Yao Peng smiled lightly: "Don't ask me about this, you will know by then, this is a matter of your Huling County."
While the two of them were talking, they saw thousands of cars starting at the toll booth, and the road surface was immediately covered in gray-black fog by the car exhaust. As soon as Liu Yang drove the car off the bridge, a Steyr trailer with a red front rushed over with black smoke. When the car passed the Mercedes-Benz, the driver seemed to stick out his head and curse.
"Oh, pull over..." Yao Peng sighed, and said in a low voice, "Hurry up, you still haven't made it past the toll booth..."
Liu Yang looked at the opposite side, thinking that there are still two passages going south? What does it have to do with us if they passed theirs?
However, his thought hadn't dissipated yet, and he soon knew the reason. At this time, more than a dozen trucks in the back row rushed out of the queue to seize the passage to the south. Regardless of the danger of the cars being scratched, they rushed over with black smoke.
Liu Yang quickly turned around and drove the car into the front of a store on the side of the road.
Before he got out of the car, he saw a woman rushing out of the shop with a bag under her arm. She knocked on the window and said loudly, "Parking fee is 50 yuan..."
"What is this, just a parking fee of 50 yuan? Which department do you belong to? Do you have the right to charge?" Seeing that the woman was not wearing a uniform, she was wearing a red jacket, black trousers, and bare feet. She was pulling a pair of blue The plastic slippers, no matter how you look at them, look like a rural woman.
"Hehe... the one who drives a good car is a scumbag? Let me tell you, this place belongs to our family, and you have to pay to park your car here. I know your car brand, and you The car is stupid, it is very expensive, isn’t it? If you don’t pay, you will drive on the road for me, and the paint will be scratched off by those big cars. You know whether you can repair it with fifty yuan..."
This woman looks carefree, but she speaks fluently, and she is very good at analyzing the situation for you.
Liu Yang took a look. The position he was standing on was supposed to be a slope protection section of the river, but it was leveled by someone, and it became a flat land about three or four mu in size.
The first half of the land is cement hardened ground, and it is estimated that it also serves as a parking lot, because there are several cars parked not far from the south, and besides a few large cars, there are two or three vans. Next to a large sign erected on the side of the road, there were also two blue and white police cars parked.
Liu Yang squinted his eyes and looked over, only to see clearly that on the big sign, it actually read "Longhe Bridge Comprehensive Traffic Management Station".
And on the west side of him, there is a row of shops on the second floor, some of which are written with a certain restaurant, while others are written with some kind of supermarket. Maybe it's not time for dinner yet, the door of the restaurant is closed, and through the glass window, you can see a few girls in colorful clothes and heavy makeup sitting on the windowsill inside.
From their swanky expressions and attire, it can be seen that they must be the kind of meat sellers who are resident in roadside shops and small hotels that have been reported in the newspapers.
The main road is full of smog and dust, and the butcher girl and the police are neighbors, but it presents a harmonious atmosphere.
This situation may exist in every county below. But this is the beautiful hometown in my heart, how can it be like this?
Seeing Liu Yang standing in front of the car with a gloomy expression on his face, the middle-aged woman's attitude became gloomy and cold: "I said, will you pay the money? If you don't pay, drive the car away quickly..."
Only then did Liu Yang look away from the management station, thinking that even if this piece of land belongs to your family, your service attitude is a bit too bad, and you have no professional ethics at all!
Liu Yang was born in the countryside, so he knew that there was no reason to talk to such a person. Although he felt uncomfortable, he took out a ticket from his trouser pocket and handed it to the middle-aged woman.
Now that I am not the magistrate of Huling County, even if some things are not pleasing to the eye, I don't have the power to deal with them... Even if I go through the procedures and become the county magistrate, can I take care of these things?
Watching the middle-aged woman open the bag to find change for herself, Liu Yang couldn't help but shook his head and sighed secretly. This place is building a house and charging for parking. Since it has formed such a scale, it is not something that a woman can do.
Don't look at it as a trivial matter that seems inconspicuous, behind her, there are some people standing behind her. As long as there is a place of interest, there is a network of relationships supporting it. Breaking a point does not know how many people's interests will be touched.
Just as he was thinking in his mind, he heard loud bangs behind him. Liu Yang turned around and saw two dump trucks "carrying" side by side on the bridge.
The two cars refused to give way to each other, and both wanted to drive to the bridge earlier, but in the end, neither car could drive.
As soon as they squeezed together, the cars behind immediately honked their horns desperately, as if whose voice was the loudest in a competition.
"Liu Yang, do you know now? This is the real reason why you can't make it if you are one step too late." Yao Peng walked to Liu Yang's side at some point, and said with a smile in his ear.
Looking at the smile on his face, Liu Yang seemed to have a glimmer of understanding in his heart.
Minister Yao arranged to depart from the city at nine o'clock and arrive at the Longhe Bridge at such a coincident time. Could it be that all this is really just a coincidence?
"No one cares about this kind of situation? Isn't there a comprehensive traffic management station in front?" Thinking in his heart, Liu Yang frowned and turned his face to look at the sign with the words "Longhe Bridge Comprehensive Traffic Management Station" written on it. brand.
Units such as the county traffic police brigade and the traffic inspection brigade have a larger scope of vertical leadership, and generally the county cannot control them. These people don't do anything with their salaries. Even if they want to move these departments after becoming the county magistrate, it will be a headache.
"It's... being blocked by them, I don't know when I will be able to come to the car, my business is down again today..." The middle-aged woman handed Liu Yang a handful of five and ten bills, and was very nervous. Said dissatisfied.
Looking at the change in his hand, Liu Yang couldn't help laughing: "Miss Boss, you are charged five or ten yuan by others, and you only charge fifty yuan if you pick up someone like me?"
The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, and finally said a little embarrassedly: "How do you know?" But then, she became more assertive: "Your car is valuable, so I should charge more?"
