Chapter 219 Encounter on the Road

A month later, Xia Zhi followed the tractor of the chicken farm to transport the batch of eggs to the county town.

Originally, this job should have been Li Xuemei's job, but Li Xuemei was not feeling well these two days and fell ill at home.

So Xia Zhi temporarily replaced Team Leader Li as the person who transported the eggs this time.

They had to go to Xiajia Village, 100 miles away, to pull another batch of eggs from there.

Send these eggs to the supply and marketing cooperative in the county together.

The speed of the tractor is not as fast as the car, but it is much faster than the ox cart.

There were two people who went to deliver the goods together.

This time, it was Gao Yanbin who followed Xia Zhi to deliver the goods.

Gao Yanbin was also very powerful. Although he had only been here for more than a month, he had already become one with all the employees in the chicken farm.

He could not only talk, but also do things. In the eyes of everyone, he was a capable and hardworking young man.

Except for Xia Zhi, he was the only one who was thought by everyone to have no bad habits of those educated youth.

Of course, Gao Yanbin took the initiative to apply today, because he knew that it was Xia Zhi who was going out today.

He usually didn't have time to catch up with Xia Zhi. He had long known that there was a problem between Xia Zhi and Gu Zhaolin, but he couldn't find out what the problem was.

But the conflict between him and Gu Zhaolin was now becoming more and more intense.

Gu Zhaolin was not only lazy and greedy, but also ambitious.

He always made a fuss about being a cultured person.

But in the chicken farm, who would care if you were a cultured person.

Those chickens would not stop shitting in your chicken pen just because you were a cultured person, nor would they eat less because you were a cultured person.

Gu Zhaolin wanted to continue to stick to his character when he returned to the dormitory.

Unfortunately, he couldn't do it after staying for a while.

He had serious problems with personal hygiene. He looked like a clean young man on weekdays, but that was based on someone helping him do these things.

In the past, many girls in the village liked Gu Zhaolin, who was white and clean and had outstanding looks, so many people were willing to help him with work.

But here, it is basically family members, and there are few single young women.

He had a falling out with Wang Mei and the other two female educated youths, so he had to do his own things.

Now he has to wash his clothes, cook, and do nothing else, so it takes a long time to wash his clothes.

The conditions at the chicken farm are worse than those in the village.

The main reason is that everything is in short supply here, so Gu Zhaolin has to be self-sufficient.

Gu Zhaolin can't cook, so you can imagine how much suffering he has to endure.

At first, Gu Zhaolin wanted to reconcile with Gao Yanbin to improve his life, but Gao Yanbin was not a fool.

As soon as he saw Gu Zhaolin like this, he knew that the other party wanted to use him.

Gao Yanbin ignored Gu Zhaolin at all, so the relationship between the two is now very stiff.

No talking, no communication.

The most annoying thing is that Gu Zhaolin himself does not pay attention to his personal hygiene, and he and Gao Yanbin are also very troubled.

He didn't empty the urinal in the morning at night.

There was a smell in the room, and Gao Yanbin didn't want to help him deal with it, so their dormitory has become a mess.

Gao Yanbin has always wanted to kick Gu Zhaolin out, but it's obviously impossible without a good excuse.

On the other hand, Gao Yanbin can see that Gu Zhaolin will steal his food and use his seasonings when he is not around.

This is a bit annoying, as no one has abundant food these days.

If someone takes your food, you will go hungry.

But they are in the same room, and this kind of thing is really hard to deal with.

Find a lock to lock these things?

The problem is that the room is so small that there is no place to put a cupboard.

Gao Yanbin has been thinking about cooking with others, so that it would be easy to eat with others and put his food with others.

But those who have families can't live with others.

And other people are obviously unwilling to live with them, the educated youth.

People from other factories have no intersection with them, so it is not easy to talk to them.

Gao Yanbin looked around and decided to go to Xia Zhi, mainly because Xia Zhi was alone and had conflicts with Gu Zhaolin.

The most important thing was that everyone in this dormitory area knew that Xia Zhi was a good cook. Every time Xia Zhi cooked, the whole dormitory area would be filled with an indescribable fragrance.

Gao Yanbin had been thinking about talking to Xia Zhi. Isn't this a chance?

Today, I heard that Xia Zhi was going to deliver this batch of goods, so I immediately volunteered to be a delivery porter.

Xia Zhi and Gao Yanbin sat on the back seat of the tractor.

Next to them were piles of eggs, all of which were placed in wooden boxes with straw.

This was the best way to package them in this era.

Xia Zhi thought that this trip to the county town was a good opportunity, and he could buy some things by the way.

He had been here for more than two months, and he used less and less things, but going to the county town might be the first opportunity.

This place couldn't buy anything even if he had money, and many things were actually out of stock at home.

Just as he closed his eyes and rested, the tractor suddenly stopped. Because of the sudden brake, Xia Zhi almost hit the box head-on.

When he opened his eyes, he found that a group of people were fighting beside the avenue.

The driver of the tractor was Chen Dazhuang, who was famous in their chicken farm.

As his name suggests, he was strong and tall. Generally speaking, Chen Dazhuang drove the tractor to deliver goods because of his physique. Most people would not dare to trouble Chen Dazhuang if they encountered something on the road.

Chen Dazhuang braked the car at this time. First, he could not drive through because there were several people standing on the road. Second, he did not know what the situation of this group of people was. Chen Dazhuang himself was not sure. While braking the car,

he whispered to the two people behind him.

"Grab your weapons, just in case."

Before they left, the factory director told them that if they encountered anything bad on the road, no matter whether they were men or women, they had to protect collective property.

These days, collective property is even more important than one's own life.

When they went out, they prepared a wooden stick for each person in the back pocket of the car.

It was a firewood stick as thick as a wrist.

It was the hardest kind of wooden stick here.

It was absolutely steady, accurate and ruthless when hitting people, and it would definitely hurt you.

Xia Zhi was startled and grabbed a stick from the side.

I have heard of car bandits before, but I have never seen them.

Gao Yanbin also picked up a stick, and the two walked to the front of the car, ready to jump down at any time if they saw something bad.

Chen Dazhuang got out of the car.

Apparently, the people on the road also saw them, and they should be six young men.

To be precise, five young men beat another young man.
