That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 135 Do you think it is a girl?

[Brother Li Ye, my brother is living like a millennium now, and the date of publication of the monthly magazine is almost here. If you don’t send me the manuscript, I will leave my job and look for you to make a living.]

Li Ye read Dong Yuejin's telegram in his dormitory and almost laughed out loud.

Not long after school started, Dong Yuejin suddenly sent an urgent letter to Li Ye.

The letter stated that he was appointed by Blue Ocean Publishing House at a critical moment and was promoted from senior editor to editor-in-chief, specifically responsible for the collection and distribution of the monthly magazine "New Wind" owned by the publishing house.

In the early 80s, with the advent of the spring breeze, many publishing houses tried to publish periodicals, but in the end, not many survived.

Li Ye had never heard of the monthly magazine "New Wind". It was probably that in the process of a hundred flowers blooming, it withered due to congenital deficiencies and acquired infertility.

The meaning in Dong Yuejin's letter is similar. The monthly magazine "New Wind" has reached a state of near death, otherwise Dong Yuejin would not be "accepting orders in the face of danger."

This kind of work is not easy to do. If he does it well, Dong Yuejin will naturally get a higher status and salary. If he doesn't do it well, he will definitely be disgraced and shoulder the responsibility.

After Dong Yuejin took office, he immediately approached Li Ye to make an appointment and asked him to send the first part of the new book. He wanted to publish it serially under the name "Seven Inch Blade New Work" to first extend the life of "New Wind",

Then see if we can make "New Wind" form its own style around the theme of "We were once extremely powerful".

When I met Li Ye for the first time, the two of them had a heart-to-heart talk about the "Battle of Talas", talking about China's long historical heritage and the history of being alone at the top of the world for thousands of years.

After hearing this, Dong Yuejin never forgot about it. When he returned to the island city, he communicated with many familiar senior authors.

Several of the authors are very interested in this kind of historical subject and have already submitted some manuscripts to Dong Yuejin. Now they are just short of a masterpiece called Seven Inch Blade.

"If I can do it, I might even be able to achieve the status of Grandmaster of the Kaisect!"

Li Ye organized the first part of the manuscript of "Flying in the New Wind" and planned to go to the post office to send it to Dong Yuejin tomorrow to solve his urgent need.

At this moment, someone suddenly called him in the corridor.

"Li Ye, there is someone looking for you downstairs."

"Hey, thank you!"

Li Ye stuck his head out of the window and saw that it was Jin Peng.

Li Ye hurried downstairs because he had told Jin Peng that if there was an emergency, he could come to Beijing University to find him. He thought something was urgent.

But after seeing Jin Peng, I found that his face was happy and he didn't look like he was in a hurry.

"What's wrong, Brother Peng? Is something wrong?"

"There's something wrong," Jin Peng pulled Li Ye away and said as he walked: "Hao Jian bought a car. Now that we finally have a car, we have to show it to you, the major shareholder."

"Buy a car? So soon?"

Li Ye's eyes also lit up and he became interested.

If you want to buy a car these days, you have to submit a plan to your employer and wait in line for approval, especially cars, which are even more scarce.

"I told you, that car is really nice. It has heating and radio, and can run to [-] miles. The Yuejin Garment Factory didn't want to sell it to us at first, but Hao Jian directly paid the price of a new car."

"Well, Hao Jian's ability to do things is pretty good. It's only been a few days, so..."

Li Ye followed Jin Peng out of the school gate excitedly, and immediately saw Hao Jian, Wang Jianqiang and others, as well as the "nice car".

It has a sky blue body, four round lights, a tall chassis, and a three-meter-long cabin.

"This is a truck! Hao Jian, have you bought a truck?"

"This is a passenger and cargo vehicle, an authentic Jingcheng 130. It can pull people and goods, and it runs very fast."

Seeing Li Ye's disappointed look, Hao Jian quickly opened the car door and introduced Li Ye, eloquent and eloquent. He felt as dedicated as the black stocking OL lady in the 4S store in the future.

"Okay! I'll try."

Hao Jian was kind-hearted, and Li Ye couldn't find fault anymore, so he opened the door and got into the driver's seat, turned on the ignition and tried the car.

This car was well maintained, at least better than the old Jiefang Li Ye drove a few days ago, but when it was put into gear, Li Ye got used to it very well.

Because the Jingcheng 130 has a "premium gear", the shift lever is under the steering wheel, just like the luxury Mercedes-Benz of later generations.

只不过人家奔驰的怀档是自动的，而130的怀档是1—2—3—4—倒挡。

Apart from these, there is nothing wrong with this car. The steering wheel is also very light. Compared with the old Jiefang, it is really "fast". Although it cannot reach the [-] miles that Jin Peng said, [-] miles is really fast. No problem.

Li Ye drove for two laps and consumed one liter of gasoline. The disappointment in his heart dissipated.

Although this car is not very satisfactory, it solves the problem of having and not having it. It is much more convenient when you need to use the car in an emergency.

In fact, in a few decades, families of all sizes in China will not necessarily need private cars.

It may not be driven more than [-] kilometers in a year, and the cost of fuel, depreciation, and insurance are really a waste when combined.

But often when "something happens", people will have a strong desire for a private car, leading to the last impulse to buy a big toy worth 10,000+.

It feels great when I drive it out for fun occasionally, but after carefully calculating the cost, it makes my teeth hurt.

Li Ye stopped the car and said to Hao Jian: "The car is good, and you are doing well in this matter, but you still need to get a car as soon as possible, so that you can have face when you go out to do errands."

"I understand, I understand. I'm already asking someone to find a solution, but cars are really difficult to get."

Hao Jian quickly agreed. Now that he is out running business all day long, he naturally knows the "trustworthy blessing" ability of a car.

"Then go ahead! Drive the car to Zaojun Temple for me on Sunday. I want to use it."

Li Ye turned around to leave, but was unexpectedly held back by Jin Peng.

"Xiaoye, don't go! You have to teach us how to drive."

"Why do you need me to teach you how to drive? Don't you have a driver?"

Only then did Li Ye notice that there were only Hao Jian, Jin Peng, and Zhou Lijuan around the 130, and there was no driver.

Li Ye thought of a possibility and asked in surprise: "Which of you drove the car here?"

Jin Peng said with some pride: "I drove it here. It's not difficult to drive. Just teach me how to put it into gear. It makes a noise no matter how I put it into gear. It's a bit scary."

Li Ye was really convinced. You are really good at driving without a license in the capital city.

Li Ye said: "Don't say anything. Go to Yuejin Garment Factory to borrow a driver tomorrow. Brother Peng, if you want to drive, just go and get your driver's license. No one can drive without a license."

Hao Jian smiled and said: "They are willing to borrow it, but how can we let him borrow it? We have now negotiated with three manufacturers and compared prices with each other.
It's okay for everyone to pretend not to know, but if they use other people's drivers to run business for other factories... it's not good! "Jin Peng also said: "I have asked Ma Qianshan to go back to Qingshui County to apply for the driver's license. I will definitely get the driver's license in five or six days at most.
Xiaoye, please teach me now!When I got the certification, I learned it and it was just right. "

Li Ye spread his hands and said, "Then you can learn to drive after you get your license. During my internship, according to the traffic regulations, I am not qualified to lead an apprentice."

Hao Jian smiled and said: "What traffic rules! I've been watching for several days, and there's not even a car inspector in this wilderness, so you can just run around on the road."

Jin Peng saw that Li Ye was still groaning and lightly kicked Wang Jianqiang's calf.

Wang Qiangqiang looked at Li Ye sheepishly and said hehely: "Brother, I want to learn too. My book will arrive in five or six days at most."

Okay!These two guys were planning to go through the back door to buy the certificate, and had no intention of abiding by the rules.

Li Ye looked at Jin Peng, then at Hao Jian, and said with a straight face: "You all want to learn?"

"Well, I want to learn all of them!"

"I want to learn!"

"I want to."

"I want to learn too."

Not to mention Jin Peng and Hao Jian, even the female accountant Zhou Lijuan also smiled and said she wanted to learn to drive.

Are you trying to force her to have a baby collectively?
See how I accept you.

Li Ye finally saw through it, there is no way to keep salted fish under a cat's nose.

Even if they don't teach, they will learn secretly. In an era when drivers have a high status, the temptation to "learn to drive" is not that great.

Anyway, there are so many unlicensed drivers these days, and they simply don’t have the awareness to abide by the law.

If that were to happen, the risk would be even greater.

"You can teach me if you really want," Li Ye said, "but no one is allowed to drive by themselves until you get your driver's license."

"That's it!"

Several people looked at each other and reluctantly agreed. It seemed that they had originally planned to drive without a license.

Li Ye said to Hao Jian: "You, hire a taxi for business tomorrow. There is one outside the train station. Don't take this taxi."

Hao Jian suddenly grinned and said: "That car costs more than one yuan per kilometer, and it costs more than 100 yuan to run in a day."

"Does more than 100 yuan count? The speed at which you make money now is faster than the speed at which you spend money now. Which one is faster? I'll kill you."

Zhou Lijuan was speechless for a while. She had been working in the enterprise for more than ten years, and she had never seen a leader who took more than 100 yuan as improper money.

At least not with words.

"boarding!"

Li Ye got in the car very unhappy, drove a few people north, and found a deserted dead end road.

Then he started with Jin Peng. After all, Jin Peng's understanding of motor vehicles was not bad.
He knew how to ride a motorcycle as soon as he got started. He had just figured out the names of the three pedals on the car and drove it for dozens of kilometers. He must have some talent as a rider.

"Start, stop, start. Stop, whatever you drive, I'll let you stop."

Jin Peng, who was full of confidence, only drove less than 50 meters before being sprayed by "Coach Li".

He said very dissatisfied: "Xiaoye, I haven't even driven two steps yet, why do you ask me to stop? Besides, I'm not familiar with the gear."

Li Yedao: "What I am teaching you now are the core skills of driving. If you take the test in person and learn how to start and stop, you will have mastered half of it."

Jin Peng looked at Li Ye with a dumbfounded face, not sure if Li Ye was looking for trouble with him?Still telling the truth.

Li Ye is telling the truth.

Of course, if you say you have learned how to start and stop, you have learned half of it, and it may not be suitable for the examination standards of this year.

But if it were placed decades later, Li Ye's words would be considered "modest".

In later driver's license assessments, the skill of "getting started" accounted for 80.00%, or even more than [-]%, of the difficulty of the assessment.

Because starting is a test of the candidate's cooperation with the clutch and throttle.

80.00% of the candidates who failed the test failed because of the coordination of clutch and throttle.

As for forgetting to turn on the turn signal, forgetting to go around the car to check the vehicle, or not smiling at the examiner, those are not technical problems. As long as you have a clear mind, you will not make such mistakes at all.

As for the special situations in those short videos, they are even less likely events.

[Be sure not to let any big cars miss me on the road!Be sure not to hit two red lights! 】

These fears all come from the candidates' unskilled "starting" skills. If you have [-]% no problem starting, and are good at cooperating with the accelerator and clutch, then all special situations can be dealt with by stopping and starting again normally.

If you fail to start, you will get zero points.

"Okay, okay! Xiaoye, do whatever you say."

Jin Peng reluctantly accepted Coach Li's teachings. Following Li Ye's instructions, he completed more than five starts and stops within a distance of 100 meters.
Then he turned back and continued the painful repetition.

But half an hour later, Jin Peng felt magically that he seemed to have the look of an experienced driver.

When a new driver gets in the car and turns on the ignition, it usually takes several seconds to start the car because he has to find the clutch contact point.

But Jin Peng is now "moving in seconds", and he feels that there is only a little trouble between the accelerator and the clutch, half-slowing, slowing down, and smoking when slowing down.

Only by being neither hasty nor slow can you gradually get better.

Li Ye's teaching was really good. He failed the exam twice in his previous life, but found a coach he knew well and taught him two months of work in two days, and then he passed easily.

You mentioned these experiences, don’t other coaches know about them?
I definitely know, but within half an hour, what coach wouldn’t feel distressed if he pressed the clutch hundreds of times.

And if you really want to teach the students so quickly, how can you still smoke the coach's Chinese cigarettes?
Can he afford it?
"Now start practicing shifting into gear, upshifting twice and downshifting twice within 100 meters. Let's start."

"Xiaoye, won't it break down quickly if we drive like this?"

"It breaks quickly? Then you can't repair it? Do you think this is a girl who will drive a car for a lifetime?"
