P.S. I'm asking for a wave of votes. There's a meeting today, so there are only two updates. I'll make it up tomorrow. It's the fifth watch tomorrow.
At this moment, Qin Shi thought for a moment and said,"
"How about this, Guild Leader, leaders. We can't lose out on the army. I saw that the sports facilities in our regiment weren't particularly perfect just now. Why don't I pay for the regiment to build an indoor sports room with wooden floors? That way, it'll be easier for the higher-ups to explain.”
This time, it was the regiment commander and the others 'turn to be surprised. Helping to transport goods along the way would only cost some fuel, but they would directly give you an indoor sports center!
In fact, building an indoor sports center wouldn't cost much to Qin Shi, and it would be very likable.
However, there were very few military units in the border areas that had indoor wooden flooring sports. If there was an indoor wooden flooring sports center, the higher-ups would definitely be happy!
Compared to the future benefits, the cost of building a stadium was negligible. There was no need for the regiment commander and the others to refuse. They could give it to him if they wanted!
After another round of politeness, the regiment commander directly informed the higher-ups to send someone over after dinner.
Fortunately, Qin Shi and the others didn't get drunk because of the arrival of the leaders. However, they would probably be dead by dinner time!
Qin Shi was also impressive. He opened a large bag in front of everyone and took out a hundred or so bundles of Great Unity.
"Leaders, I don't know if it's enough. My passbook can't be used here, so I can only bring cash.”
The money was withdrawn from the bank in Beijing. He was worried that it would be inconvenient to withdraw money at the border and he would go crazy!
Houses built in the army were cheap, and Qin Shi's calculations were quite accurate." He wondered how his regiment commander would react if he knew what he was thinking.
Then how was Qin Shi going to buy Hetian jade? No cash!
However, there was no need to worry. The army had their own ways. They contacted their connections in the army in Beijing and asked the company to transfer the money directly through the army's money transfer channel. They could withdraw the money from the bank in Wu City tomorrow morning.
Everyone was happy. The higher-ups even made the decision."As long as it's not too outrageous, if you still need to transport goods, as long as there's an empty return car, just let me know at any time.”
The regiment commander was even more straightforward in private." It's not a problem for you to pull a thousand tons this year. We don't have the capacity to do so even if it's more.”
This time, it was Qin Shi's turn to smile bitterly,[Why would I hoard a thousand tons of Hetian seeds?] That way, Hetian Jade's hype would probably be brought forward by ten or twenty years because of his actions!
There was still another problem that the regiment commander and the higher-ups had helped him solve. He had to use the train to pull it!
It was not easy to approve the train from the border to Beijing. If not for his connections, God knew how many days it would have taken. However, as long as the army showed up, the railway department would be able to negotiate as long as the transportation fees were paid on time.
Arrival, equipment, and transportation were all done through the fast lane.
The higher-ups and regiment commander who stayed for dinner said,
"Drink as much as you can. Don't be afraid if you drink too much. The military doctors and medics in the health center won't drink today.”
That night, Qin Shi didn't even know how he got back to the regiment's guest house. When he woke up in the middle of the night, he was thirsty, and there was an orderly on duty to pour him water.
After staying in the army for two days, the Liberation Car was sent to the repair company for maintenance. One-third of this year's transportation was New Liberation (Dongfeng), but there were still two-thirds of Old Liberation.
The transport soldiers were absolutely professional when it came to car maintenance. This technology was specially taught by the engineers of the car factory!
Furthermore, that Dongfeng (Liberation, named Dongfeng in the future) didn't need to drive to Hetian this time. It was a waste of energy and fuel!
When the time came, this Dongfeng that had traveled thousands of miles would not need to bring Hetian jade back to the capital. It would be fine to bring some local specialties from the border. Old brothers, how could they be tired from this long journey!
In the words of the regiment commander and the others, they had to build a gymnasium for them. No matter what, they had to bring back some gifts in return so that others would not say that our regiment was not doing things properly!
Moreover, a day's time together was too short. The regiment commander decided to let the chief of staff and deputy regiment commander watch over the house while he went to Hetian alone. After all, it was common for the regiment commander to follow him out of the car.
Moreover, it would be easier for Qin Shi and the others to collect the seeds when the regiment commander arrived at Hetian. If they just wanted a few tons of seeds, they could do it themselves with money.
However, it would be difficult to get hundreds of tons of them. At least, it would be difficult to get so many in a short period of time.
Now that the regiment commander had stepped in, the local government would help, and the big problem would become a small problem that could be easily solved.
Hetian jade was currently in the hands of some jade carving factories, and many of them were scattered among the common people. If Qin Shi and the other three were to rely on themselves, it would be impossible for them to gather the goods all at once.
However, as long as the local government came forward and shouted through the loudspeaker that someone was collecting jade, there would be a lot of jade immediately!
There were 50 " combat vehicles " in a row, all of which were brand new 5-ton Dongfeng.
Because he and Brother Long wouldn't return the way they came, they would drive back to Beijing from the southern border after finishing their business in Hetian. The regiment commander gave them a stack of military gas tickets and even wrote a note.
With this note, if you encounter any difficulties within the Northwest Military Region, you can go to any army or armed forces for help. They will definitely do their best to help.
The regiment commander also got the driver to drive his newly arrived jeep. 50 trucks formed a long convoy. The leader's car had a red flag and a red banner hanging on it. They set off early the next morning!
It was almost noon before they set off to catch up with the convoy. They first went to the bank to withdraw a large bag of cash.
They passed by Kuqa, Aksu, and other places for five days before arriving in Kashi at night.
Qin Shi was almost dumbfounded by the car ride and the driving!
The speed of the convoy was not fast. They only maintained a speed of 40 kilometers per hour. The roads in the border areas were actually okay. Otherwise, they would not have been able to maintain such an average speed. The Gobi Desert was a flat land! Not a single other car could be seen for a long time. If Qin Shi and Long Zhixi were allowed to drive freely, the jeep would be worth 130 yuan!
This was not an exaggeration at all. Although the road was not wide, one could see the road conditions a few kilometers away at a glance! If they were really happy, they could even drive off the embankment and behave atrociously in the Gobi Desert!
The accidents on the road from W City to Kashi were almost like catching a chicken with one's eyes closed due to collisions between cars. Most of them were caused by driving themselves silly on the straight and almost empty road in the vast Gobi Desert. They rushed down the embankment at high speed and overturned!
There were many such unlucky people every year!
Jiang Saida! It was too big!
The regiment commander had brought a staff officer with him. There were three people in his car, but they always squeezed into the car that Qin Shi and the others were in to chat.
Anyway, the jeep could fit five men.
Everyone took turns driving. If anyone was sleepy, they would run to another car and lean on it.
Qin Shi liked to hang out with soldiers. One day, he had to go to the Dongfeng truck that the commander of the 7th Company was the driver of. He even helped to drive for two hours.
However, he was obviously looked down upon by the company commander." Little Qin, you're number one in terms of earning money. However, your driving skills are average. It's a little difficult for you to be our co-driver."”
"Haha, my brother said the same thing. He used to be in the transport corps and ran across the Sichuan-Tibet line. However, with my skills, I'm qualified to be a truck driver in Beijing.”
"Of course! As long as the soldiers from our side and the Sichuan-Tibet line have a year of driving experience, even if they are still co-drivers, their skills can be compared to the ordinary truck drivers in their hometown!”
Qin Shi, the commander of the company, had privately given him two catties of Longjing tea, saying that it was the taste of his hometown.
"I go home to visit my family once a year. The child is so young that he almost can't recognize me.”
The company commander chatted along the way. It was not difficult for a transport soldier to find a partner in his hometown. The key was whether he could follow the army and whether the army was far away.
He had found a lover who was from the countryside. The army would not let him go for the time being because it was rare to have an old pilot. His lover was too far away from the army, and his child was still young.
Speaking of this, the company commander had a stomach full of bitterness. Because they were from the same hometown, otherwise, he wouldn't have said such nonsense.
"This trip to Hetian is still considered good. The most difficult part is running the Xinzang highway. Just thinking about it gives me a headache! However, I plan to become a professional next year and drive back to my hometown.”
Since he was getting along with the captain, Qin Shi advised him,""If you want to change jobs and go home, don't choose to drive. I think in another five or six years, drivers in this place won't be as popular as they are now. It would be better to just go to the government and be a small cadre. In the future, even if he sat in the office and had nothing to do, it would definitely be good.”
The two of them talked about the local affairs in detail, and the captain listened to them because Qin Shi's analysis seemed to make sense.
"By the way, Little Qin, you said that Hetian jade will become a treasure in the future?”
"Absolutely! Captain, you're from Jiangnan. Your place has always been the center of jade carving in China. If you don't believe me, you can write a letter back and ask. There are a few state-owned jade carving factories in your place.
"I don't dare to say anything else. When you change jobs, if you can bring back 100 to 200 catties of high-quality Hetian jade seeds, hide them well and sell them when your son gets married 30 years later. If the money you exchange for isn't enough to get two or three wives, you can come and look for them! I'll pay for Nephew Gu's marriage and house!”
"Yes! Why wouldn't I believe it? He wouldn't lose anything anyway. At most, he could go home and use it as a rock to press pickles!”
The company commander was also a cheerful person.
"Listen to others and eat your fill! Little Qin, you're so good at earning money. Let's learn from you later.”
Qin Shi laughed when he heard that. There were plenty of round Hetian seeds in the market. They were good for pressing pickles, but he didn't know if he would be scolded to death in the future!
After the captain finished speaking, he said to another apprentice driver in the car,
"Xiao Zhong, listen up. Your Brother Qin must have a point. Don't always buy cigarettes with that little allowance of yours.”
Xiao Zhong was also a southerner, so the company commander was brought along by himself.
Qin Shi really didn't know if the words he had said in the military canteen two days ago would inadvertently create a group of future " Hetian jade bosses "!
F * ck, this group of people were still in cahoots! A group of people from the same unit could be considered the local tyrants in the border area. If this situation happened, it would be fun!
