Because the locomotive has been changed, a simple wind test is needed. This has nothing to do with Li Xuewu and his colleagues. They just watch the drivers busy.
When Li Xuewu and Wang Yimin were full, they cleaned their lunch boxes and saw Liu Guoyou signaling that they were ready to start.
After a short time, the departure signal light of the station turned green. The field attendant came out of the operation room with the signal flag, stood on the platform in the middle of the train, and waved the green signal flag to Li Xuewu's car to show the departure signal.
After Li Xuewu saw the conductor Liu Guoyou confirmed the status of the departure annunciator and the departure signal of the field attendant, he spread the green signal flag and circled from outside to inside to show the departure signal to the driver. At the same time, the station field attendant also turned to face the direction of the locomotive and transferred the departure signal of the conductor.
After the driver and the assistant driver confirmed the departure signal, the whistle gave a long sound, and the train started slowly, and the speed slowly increased with the power of the steam unit.
This is also the reconnection of two steam locomotives. If a steam locomotive can raise its speed in such a short time, it is unimaginable, and it is totally incomparable with the speed increase and speed of trains in later generations.
Li Xuewu only ate a braised meat covered rice, and put another box of chicken stewed mushroom covered rice in the drawer, ready to eat when hungry. Seeing Liu Guoyou busy filling in the boarding log, he also took out the escort log to fill in.
"My first escort experience is really too rich," Li Xuewu sighed as he filled in the log.
Liu Guoyou didn't look up, but said, "I can't say whether you are lucky or not. Anyway, I've been running for more than ten years, and I haven't met you several times."
......
In this way, the truck where Li Xuewu was staying wandered past Fengcheng, past the "end of the universe", "hometown of Benshan", "ancient capital of Yan", "main battlefield of pocket array", into Spring City, and then followed along the internal special line into No. 17 Factory.
(Do you know where these places are?)
The escort was completed when the cadre who received the car in the factory checked the lead seal with the receipt, copied the escort log with the security department of the other party, asked the other party to sign, and signed on the other party's record.
Li Xuewu and his colleagues will leave at Chuncheng until Friday night, and empty the bus to Gangdu to escort special steel back to the factory.
So Li Xuewu will have 24 hours at most to deal with the big pears.
Li Xuewu slept well on the bus and did not rest in the dormitory arranged by the factory.
I told Wang Yimin that I would go to my relatives' home and report to the dormitory management office.
After leaving the factory gate, there was no one inside at night. After walking around for more than ten minutes, my eyes kept looking for opportunities to observe behind me.
It was very difficult to track at night. Li Xuewu was confident that no one would follow him, so he took out his bicycle and rode to the second uncle's house.
The second uncle lives in the dormitory building of the railway bureau, which is the house of the second aunt's parents.
When Li Xuewu entered the courtyard, he was quiet. The old guard was dozing off. He picked up his bicycle a long way away, walked into the courtyard and went to the second floor.
Standing in front of the second uncle's house, he took out two net bags of big pears from the space and held them in his hand.
After knocking at the door for a long time, the second uncle opened it from inside.
"Learn martial arts? Why did you come here? What happened to your grandmother?"
The second uncle Li dared to shout out in surprise, and the second aunt ran out after hearing the second uncle's cry.
Li Xuewu hurriedly pushed Second Uncle into the room, put his two bags of pears on the cabinet at the door, and closed the door.
"My milk is fine. I came home just in time to Chuncheng when I was on the escort mission of our rolling mill."
Han Xiumei, the second aunt, slapped Li Xuewu hard and said, "This dead child, why didn't you write a letter to the family before you came here? Why did you take pears so far? How hard!"
Li Xuewu held his legs a little soft, and Li Gan sat on the sofa, answering the words of Second Aunt.
"The letter is not as fast as I received the notice temporarily."
The second uncle took out a cigarette on the table and lit it. He took a deep breath, and finally recovered.
"When did you change your job? Your uncle wrote that you were promoted. Why did you go to the rolling mill again?"
Li Xuewu drinks a mouthful of hot water from his second aunt, which dispels the cold in his stomach.
Li Xuewu knew what was wrong with him. Although he slowly recovered the scene of war in his memory, after all, he did not see it with his own eyes, but only felt deeply. So the tone of his reply to Second Uncle was very flat.
"More than two months ago, I was injured in the head and lost some memory, so I went back. The street was arranged into the security office of the steel rolling mill. Now I am the head of the security unit, so I have a mangy face."
Hearing what Li Xuewu said, the second aunt turned Li Xuewu's face and looked at it carefully, saying, "Ouch, you are the one who grows well. Why are you hurt? How painful it is!"
Li Gan didn't care too much about Li Xuewu's injury. Instead, he asked about Li Xuewu and his family, focusing on Mrs. Li's health.
Li Xuewu replied to his second uncle's question: "My milk, you don't know. Usually, you just walk around the door. You either watch cards on the kang or help my father concoct Chinese medicine. I am used to helping my father. Now I follow my mother."
When Li Gan heard that my mother was in good health, he nodded his head and asked, "Is there any difficulty at home? We belong to your family. There are many children and students. Your father can't bear to starve you. All the money is spent on food. It still supports the old people. Your father is under great pressure."
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "It's not difficult for anyone. My eldest brother started work and got married. My sister-in-law is his colleague. They both teach in the university. Each of them has a salary of 62 yuan. With high income, I have also earned a salary this month. Since this year, our family will have a good day."
Seeing that the second uncle and the second aunt listened carefully, they went on to say: "The third one was admitted to the University of Medical Sciences this year. He stayed at home and got subsidies. Li Xue, the sophomore in senior high school, was also a top student, but he didn't talk much."
The second aunt smiled and said, "We finally have a doctor who can inherit the family's mantle. The eldest brother must be happy. Li Xue has been pampered since she was young. She is smart and can't be wrong."
The second uncle's family and the third uncle's family can't go back for several years, and they can't stay for a few days. So they learned about the situation at home through letters. After learning about it, the second uncle was relieved.
"Stay here for a few days and then go back. Tomorrow, let your second aunt stew for you. Tonight, you should deal with Xueli first."
Li Xuewu hurriedly said, "Second Uncle, I have to go back tonight. There are tasks. I have other things to do this time."
Seeing that Li Xuewu was still busy, the two uncles and aunts sat down again.
Li Xuewu said, "The factory has got an unexpected big white pear, just like the one in the box, which weighs more than 6750 jin. The leader said that 80 cents a jin would be fine."
Li Gan said in surprise, "You really dare to do it. It's more than three tons! What should we do if something happens?"
Seeing that Second Uncle was angry, Li Xuewu explained: "I came with the wagon. The wagon was loaded in the warehouse of the dispatching room. I don't know what's outside the factory. The office here helps arrange transportation. I have to trouble Second Uncle to see if forestry needs such benefits. We are responsible for transportation, but we can't let forestry people contact us. We have to find a warehouse without people."
The second uncle lit another cigarette and pondered for a moment, saying, "Who doesn't want fresh fruit? Daxing's pears are famous, not to mention just arrived. There are only frozen autumn pears in the northeast now. So I'm going to the forestry logistics Laoyang's house now. Your second aunt goes to the railway logistics director Su's house on the third floor to see how much they can eat. You wait at home first."
The second uncle is resolute and resolute. It's night now. It's time to talk about this matter. He and the second aunt will get dressed and leave.
The second aunt took three pears from the box and handed them to the second uncle.
The second uncle took the pear and shook it in his hand. It was very moist and the skin was very tender.
"OK, otherwise there is no reason to speak up. In the cold winter months, fresh fruit is 80 cents a kilogram, and it's not expensive. Let's go. Stay here first."
After saying that, they went out.
