Taxi at night

Chapter 34, A ray of light

The prevention and control of the epidemic will become more stringent in the next period of time. Lu Ren will strictly guard his residence, and will never take a step out of the courtyard unless necessary.

What worries him the most is his father in his hometown, who is unable to communicate quickly and the situation is unknown, which makes him restless and restless.

Fortunately, I called Chef Le a few days ago. He returned to his hometown early because of the epidemic.Knowing from his mouth that everything is fine for my father, and that there is no case of infection in the whole village, this hanging heart has just completely relaxed.

It was approaching noon in the past few days, and he received a call from a stranger, and he answered it curiously.

"Is it Master Lu? It's really hard to call you. I called several times yesterday, but no one answered... Are you at home now?" The caller was a woman, with a hint of kindness in her boldness, who seemed to be somewhat similar to him. Looks familiar.

Lu Ren stared and thought for a long time, but he just stood there in a daze. He really couldn't remember who this woman was.

"Um... Excuse me, who are you?"

"What's wrong? You forgot me so soon?" The woman on the phone snorted and laughed, and said with a bit of blame: "Changhe Township battlefield, you are still dragging me back and forth... I don't believe it, you Forgotten so quickly."

"Oh, so it's Sister Gan! ... Hello." After reminding Lu Ren, he recalled it all at once.There were not many people with the surname Gan, so Lu Ren immediately called out the other person's surname.

He was naturally a little surprised. What is the purpose of the woman who is the owner of the battlefield, and the owner of a bathhouse, calling at this time?
"Little brother, it's your fault. It seems that my sister didn't leave the slightest impression in your mind. What a failure!" Sister Gan's self-pitying voice came from the phone. After hearing it, Lu Ren coughed dryly. .

"Sister Gan, you are a peerless heroine, a hero among women, making people unforgettable at first sight... But, I didn't expect to receive your call, which made me terrified and flattered!" Lu Ren hurriedly offered a flattery. , I guess a normal woman would like to hear it.

"Haha...hahahaha..." Sister Gan was really happy. She laughed for a while, stopped her laughter, and coughed lightly, as if she had something to say. Lu Ren hurriedly calmed down and listened carefully.

"I called you for two main purposes. One is to thank you for your help some time ago. My husband and I will keep this in mind... Isn't this during the epidemic period? I just want to say hello, and I want to know how you are doing now? "The woman's mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, which made Lu Ren smile happily.

"Thank you, thank you very much. I have always been fine. I have looked in the mirror these days and found that I have gained a lot of weight. Haha, I really answered the old saying, I have a generous heart and a fat body." Lu Ren was also very polite when others were courteous.

He felt that Sister Gan must be looking for him for something, not just chatting with him on the phone, what is the matter, the next thing is the key point, and what will it be?

Lu Ren was still full of expectations.

"I remember you once talked to me about buying a second-hand taxi, didn't you? I've been paying attention to it during this time... It just so happens that I got one in my hand these days, and it's due in half a year, no Do you know that you are interested?" These words were like a thunderbolt, which happened to hit Lu Ren's mind, and his calm heart suddenly accelerated and started beating thumpingly.

He forcibly suppressed the turmoil in his heart, and after a while, he asked in a steady tone, "Did you just buy it? What year?"

"It's a long story. Someone owed me money and mortgaged it to me. You also know that I want a taxi for no use. I go in with my left hand and go out with my right hand. Anyway, it won't be in my hand. How about it, if you want it , my sister will keep it for you, and the epidemic will be gone in two days, just come and drive away." Sister Gan, who is used to the wind and rain in the business field, didn't mention a word of money, as if she wanted to give Lu Ren away for free with a raise of her hand A taxi is full of affection and righteousness, which is touching.

Lu Ren felt itchy all of a sudden, and he appreciated Sister Gan's kindness this time.This is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Once you miss it, you will regret it too late.

"What about the procedure and price?" The value of a taxi is reflected in its legality and service life.Not to mention the legality, the period of use refers to the normal use period of a taxi, generally around eight years.Obviously, the longer the service life, the higher the value, and the more economic effects it will bring to people.Conversely, the less the value, the lower the purchase price.

On the eve of the epidemic, the handling fee for a scrapped taxi license rose from 3 at the beginning of the year to between 4 and [-].

Living frugally, the more than 3 yuan accumulated with great difficulty can hardly keep up with the increase in car prices. If this continues, when will the dream of buying a car come true? !

The sudden outbreak of the epidemic at the end of the year was so fierce that it inadvertently broke the skyrocketing price of taxis, showing a trend of stopping and falling.Some taxis that were about to expire were even more alarming, falling almost overnight to the level they had at the beginning of the year, around 2 to 3.

What is surprising is that there was a rare scene where people rushed to bid for taxis before the epidemic, and few people cared about them.

"I don't understand the situation of the taxi. It seems to expire in seven or eight months... As for the price, at that time, someone else mortgaged this car to me for 2 yuan. If you want it, my sister will give you a price. How about 1 yuan?"

"How much? 1 yuan?" Lu Ren excused himself excitedly, and asked back in disbelief.

"1, this price, my sister didn't cheat you, I also asked someone to find out, such a deadline car..."

"I want it. Sister Gan, do you have the car now? I'll ride there right away." Lu Ren hurriedly interrupted Sister Gan, and asked her impatiently, wishing he could fly over with his wings.

"You find me at the entrance of the bath, and the car is in the backyard."

"Okay, I'll be there in half an hour." Lu Ren put down his phone, found the business card that Sister Gan handed him before, put it in his arms, found 1 yuan in cash from the bedside, wrapped it in newspaper, and put it in his pocket. into the bosom.

He ran to the kitchen and pushed his bicycle, locked the courtyard door, and rushed towards the city center.

In recent days, the epidemic control has shown signs of loosening. The number of pedestrians going out has increased significantly, and a small number of buses have passed through. Occasionally, a few taxis speeding past can be seen... Various signs indicate that life is gradually recovering.

The "Golden Moon Bay" bathroom is located on Jiefang West Road, and the name is very loud and pleasant. When Lu Ren went to the ground, he saw that it was in an alley, with a small curtain and a large inscription, which made him want to laugh.

Of course, the meat in the bun is not on the folds.Lu Ren walked into the courtyard step by step, only to find that it was a huge courtyard.

Facing the gate is a small three-story building with a bathroom on the first floor, and I don’t know what to do upstairs... On both sides of the building, there is a boiler room on one side, and there are four bungalows.There is a spacious carport on the other side, and a car with a dark red surface is parked in it, which is extremely dazzling.

"Baby, I'm here!" Lu Ren cried ecstatically in his heart.
