Chapter 317 The journey on the aluminum barrel

Maybe he was bored, because Lao Yu just talked and boasted to everyone. Mu Yi and Zhang Gang no longer wanted to talk, and only Ma Buqi still occasionally replied to him.

When we were bored, a loud car horn suddenly sounded, which made everyone excited and comfortable.

"It's the car horn!" Ma Buqi said.

"Why are there still cars at this time?" This is what Lao Yu said.

Zhang Gang had already stood up and opened the door to go out to take a look. As soon as Mu saw Zhang Gang going out, he also got up and followed him out.

The two came outside and saw a 485 truck driving slowly towards here. That was really exciting!

Zhang Gang: "The horse doesn't move, the block comes out, it's a 485."

When Ma Buqi heard Zhang Gang calling him, he quickly walked out.

At this time, the 485 also drove to the door of Lao Yu's house and stopped. I heard the master sticking his head out of the cab window and shouting: "Lao Yu, wine barrel!"

Lao Yu just walked out of the house and replied: "Coming, coming."

Lao Yu: "Master Ma, why did you come here today?"

The master, whom Lao Yu called Lao Ma, hurriedly returned: "Lao Yu, this is the kind of person the boss of Zhongpu told me that his winery had been given to someone else, and he asked me to give him the money for the wine on credit.

After that, take back the wine barrels. If there is one missing barrel, you will have to pay 500 yuan. Do you think this is a good deal? An aluminum wine barrel can weigh up to 30 kilograms of aluminum, so it is worth 500 yuan."

Lao Yu: "Oh. Just wait a minute. One of the two barrels of wine I have here has been sold out, and there is still one barrel that may weigh dozens of kilograms. Wait for me to put the wine into a plastic barrel and I will give it to you.

come out."

Lao Ma: "Yes. Come on, it's too cold. I'll come down first to make a fire. I'll call you when you're done." After saying that, he drove the car forward a little, then turned around and started again.

Turn around, stop, turn off the engine and get off.

Zhang Gang passed the cigarette to old Master Ma and said, "Ah, it's so cold. Master Ma, come in and warm yourself by the fire."

As soon as Lao Ma took the cigarette, Zhang Gang immediately lit the lighter for him.

Lao Ma took a long drag on the cigarette and walked into the house while saying: "That's right. It's really too cold today. If the owner of the winery hadn't urged me to hurry, I wouldn't have collected the barrels in a panic.

Go down."

Ma Buqi: "Old Ma, which family do you belong to?"

Lao Ma: "I am from the Shama family."

Ma Buqi: "Are you from the Wulai Shama family? Or are you from the Guoshen Shama family?"

Lao Ma: "He's from the Shama family in Jilaba."

...

The two chattered for a while, and the old horse actually called the horse "old man".

I have to admire Ma Buqi's "eloquence".

Just as the two men were establishing a close relationship, Lao Yu had already prepared the wine. He was rolling the aluminum wine barrel like a gasoline barrel from the "warehouse" opposite to the car with a "bang, bang, bang" sound.

Get out and shout loudly: "Old Ma, it's done!"

This old horse is also a smart man. As he got up and walked out, he asked Ma Buqi: "Old man, are you going down the mountain?"

Ma Buqi: "That's right. The three of us have to go down the mountain."

Lao Ma: "Oh. In my old life, you know that the (passenger) cab can only seat one person. I'm afraid the three of you won't be able to sit in it when you go down the mountain."

Ma Buqi: "It's okay to squeeze in."

Lao Ma: "Two people can be squeezed in at most. Three people can't be squeezed in no matter what."

Zhang Gang: "Master Ma, just squeeze in. I've had a cold these past two days." After saying that, he actually sneezed a few times.

Lao Ma: "In this life, you and your friend will put your things in the car, and the two of you will squeeze in the cab. Little brother, you will have to wait for other cars." He said,

He looked at Mu Yi.

At this time, Ma Buqi had climbed onto the carriage, and Zhang Gang was below the carriage helping Lao Yu pass the aluminum wine barrel to the carriage.

Mu Yi didn't expect that the mood he was so happy and excited about the arrival of a car just now suddenly became a little lost. "What should I do? What should I do?" he kept asking himself.

If we leave, there will be no more room in the cab. Master Ma has already asked his "older generation" Ma Buqi to sit in the cab. Zhang Gang also has a "cold". Only Mu Yi is neither Lao Ma's "older generation"

, and there is no "cold". If you don't leave, you can only go back to the township government and continue to wait. But this waiting is unreliable. It is a good thing to wait, but what if you can't? As the saying goes: "Don't be afraid.

Ten thousand, just in case.” As the saying goes: “It’s better to get three on credit than two in cash.”

Then let's go! Mu Yi mustered up the courage and said to Lao Ma: "Master Ma, if I want to go down, I won't sit in the driver's cab, but can I sit on the 'second floor'?"

Lao Ma looked at Mu Yi, then at Ma Buqi and Zhang Gang. Ma Buqi and Zhang Gang had neither expressions nor words. Then he turned back to Mu Yi and said, "Are you sure you want to

Sit on the 'second floor'?"

Mu Yi: "OK."

Lao Ma: "The weather is very cold here. If you sit on the 'second floor', the car will start driving and the wind will blow, it will get even colder. If it rains or snows, it will be even more indescribable."

Mu Yi: "Don't be afraid. As long as you can go down the mountain."

Lao Ma: "Okay then. But I still have to charge the fare."

Mu Yi: "It doesn't matter. It should be accepted."

Just like that, Ma Buqi and Zhang Gang got into the passenger cab, and Mu Yi climbed into the car.

A whole carriage full of aluminum wine barrels were densely packed in the carriage. Lao Yu's two wine barrels just filled the last gap.

It's cold here and there when you climb up the carriage. The carriage filled with aluminum barrels is neither a place to sit nor a place to sit. It's not like a carriage pulling potatoes. You can sit directly on the potatoes.

It would be better for him to retract his hands into his sleeves, then grab the iron rod on the carriage baffle through his sleeves, and squat like this.

The car had started and drove away slowly.

Soon, Mu Yi couldn't bear the cold. He felt as if he had no clothes on. His hands and feet were a little stiff from the cold. Especially his feet, which were too painful. This squatting position was really painful.

At this time, there was nothing else to worry about. Mu Yi quickly pulled out the pocket containing clothes, pants, quilts and bedsheets.

He originally planned to put on all the clothes and trousers. He tried his best. Unfortunately, the car was swaying on the refrigerator road, and his hands and feet were too cold to move. It was really difficult.

Focusing on the trouser legs, I had no choice but to give up on wearing more trousers. I just managed to put on a piece of clothing, but because it was already too thick, the sleeves were completely tight, and the buttons couldn't be buttoned at all.

Just doing these simple actions made Mu Yi very tired.

It was really cold. Muyi put the remaining pants in his pocket and put them under his buttocks. This could cushion the impact of the buttocks and the barrel, and also protect him from the cold. He put the "cushion" in place. Muyi again

Put the small back basket upside down on the aluminum barrel, cross-tie the straps to the baffle iron rod. Then put the quilt cover and sheets on the body, and then slowly move to sit down. Hold the small back basket between the legs, and hold the body with both hands.

The quilt cover and sheets were pulled tightly to wrap around him, and his hands were tightly attached to the small back basket. The whole person was like a "mummy" sitting on the ground holding a small back basket that was turned upside down.
