Doomsday rat

Chapter 674
In fact, even without the vicious eyes of those drivers, Hong Tao was still a little worried about the long journey, and the confusion mainly came from Feng Zhen's expression.When he took himself through the formalities in the morning, he always seemed to have something to say, hesitated, and gave a warning in a very subtle way, commission!
This scalper who specializes in patchwork forgot to ask for a [-]% commission after completing the formalities.Hong Tao absolutely did not believe that he forgot. It was not like this when we met for the first time. He should not forget to take money even if he forgot to eat. This is professional ethics.

What's more likely is that this guy can't say something directly, or even say it tactfully, and can only use this very abnormal behavior to remind himself.From this point of view, both Feng Zhen and the old man driving the car were good people, and they were both caught up by him, which is not bad luck.

Different from the road to Langfang last time, this time the route is a bit more westward, and the Beijing-Taiwan Expressway is used for a long section.At first, Hong Tao was still thinking about why he had to take a long detour, but after passing the Sixth Ring Road, he probably understood.Every 20 kilometers or so, there is a small alliance station, which will probably be stationed with a squadron of troops.

According to Hong Tao's understanding, these depots were not used as outposts, but more to protect road safety.In other words, this road is the main road from the capital to Jinmen. I actually took a small road before, so I can hardly see other vehicles along the way.

"Didi... Didi..." Near noon, there was a loud flute sound in the distance, and the carriages came to the side of the road one after another, and a tanker truck on the opposite side drove slowly along the road.

"This guy is still strong, Brother Shu, can we also build one in the future?" The car is a tank truck, but the front is a tracked armored vehicle, and the tiger's eyes are shining and he is drooling.

"I'm afraid it's too much..." Although this car has disassembled many important parts, and even the driver's building and rear body made of thick steel plates have been cut off a lot, Hong Tao can still see it at a glance. It is what it is, a tracked ammunition vehicle.

At present, the East Asian Union may not have obtained the source of rubber, or has not mastered the technology of vulcanized rubber, or may not have the equipment for manufacturing tires.In any case, most tires are useless, especially those with heavy loads.So the alliance modified many tracked vehicles to reduce weight and use them for transportation.

Hong Tao really had nowhere to find an armored vehicle, even if he found it, it would be repaired, and the high fuel consumption would be unbearable. If there were not enough gas stations along the way, he would have to carry a few large oil drums on his back when running long distances.

"This is a gas station?" But the reality quickly gave Hong Tao a loud mouth, who said that there is no gas station, and the fuel tanker is for the gas station.It stopped outside the outpost, and someone immediately greeted it, connected the leather pipe, and poured the oil in the large tank into a small oil tank by the roadside.

"Hey... I'll go over and have a look!" Hong Tao was really puzzled, so he simply stopped and walked over.Don't move forward with the sentry post, that thing looks like a gun tower from the outside, but inside... soldiers are not allowed to enter.There is a row of houses next to it, and a small oil tank is placed next to the house, and two middle-aged men are busy.

"Big sister, are you busy?" Hong Tao didn't go near the oil tank, but entered the house with the door open.This should be a restaurant. There was a middle-aged woman standing behind the counter with her head bowed and writing and drawing.

"How many times have I said, no food and no boiling water!" The woman didn't even lift her head, she just glanced through the hair curtain before throwing a sentence over.

"Hey, big girl, you have a lot of temper, you're driving people out before it's too late!" Before he said anything, he was slapped, Hong Tao didn't get angry, and walked inward with a haha, and even pointed his head at the little girl behind him. Looked in the door.

"Hey, I said, why are you so skinny and shameless? Didn't I say that you don't eat or boil water!" Seeing that the visitor not only didn't leave, but also came in to probe his head, the woman put down the pen in her hand heavily, walked over with her hips on her hips, and blocked it. In front of Hong Tao.

"Who said I don't eat, you don't have a menu here, what do you want me to eat?" Hong Tao looked closely and smiled.

This one is so attractive, don't get me wrong, it's not that she's pretty, it's that she's too ugly.Triangular eyes, bulbous nose, thick mouth and big buck teeth, the hair on the lips is almost catching up with the beard, and there is a mole on the corner of the mouth.

The finishing touch is this mole. If it is placed on a beautiful woman's face, it is called a beauty mole, but if it is placed on her face, it will be three points ugly, and it is still so playful.

As the saying goes, one white covers all ugliness, one fat ruins everything.She is not only black, but also fat!She is dark and fat, with an ugly face like a ghost, plus she is so playful and has a broken voice, as long as Hong Tao can find a little bit of goodness from her appearance, Hong Tao dares to marry her!
But Hong Tao just liked it, from the bottom of his heart.If I can see her every morning when I wake up, I will be in a good mood for the day.Her existence will always remind me how handsome I am, how noble I am to sacrifice myself for others!
"Return the menu... How much do you want for buns, dumplings, egg soup, and cider?" The woman didn't change her attitude because of Hong Tao's sincere smile, but when she saw this man's face clearly, she didn't speak so aggressively. .But there is still no menu, only a few kinds of food are reported.

"It can't be made of human flesh, right?" Hong Tao really wanted to molest this dominatrix, so he just slipped out a sentence.No way, just for this honor and selling buns, I can't help but think of Liang Shansun Erniang.

"Hey, you stinky driver, what are you talking about! The head of the house, the head of the house, someone is making trouble!"

The speaker is not interested in the listener, and the woman seems to have heard something, and immediately became impatient. Even if she dared not directly fight the big and fierce-looking man in front of her, she didn't intend to suffer from being dumb. achievement.

"Come on, come on... this brother, do you want to eat or stay in the hotel?" Just as the roar fell, the voice rose again. The person who came was about 50 years old, not tall, with a solid body and dirty hands.He glanced at Hong Tao, then at the three carriages parked by the side of the road. Although there was no smile on his face, his attitude was quite peaceful.

"Oh, can you still stay in the hotel? Well, first bring two catties of vegetarian dumplings and a catty of cider, and then show me to the room."

Hong Tao really didn't come here to make trouble on purpose, he just wanted to check the situation on this road.But these two shopkeepers are not very talkative, especially they seem to be a little resistant to the drivers. It seems that they can't get anything out of it without spending money.It happened to be noon, and it would not be a waste to sit down and eat and drink.

"Okay, Dumplings may have to wait a while, big brother will go with me first!" Hearing that Hong Tao really wanted to eat, the man finally had a smile on his face, waved at the woman, turned around and walked out.

It turns out that there is a courtyard behind this row of houses, and there is a row of two-story buildings facing east, and the guest rooms are on the first floor.Hong Tao went in to have a look, and was not very satisfied. The Datong shop was dark and dirty.I don't know what other people think, anyway, I would rather sleep in a tent than touch those bedding.

"Boss, we just joined the transportation team and didn't touch the door for many things. Can we talk a little more?" After leaving the yard, Hong Tao took out the cigarette again.

"Let me just say, I have seen all the transport teams running this road, but you guys are the only ones who don't know me." The shop owner didn't refute face, and the two stood at the gate of the courtyard and chatted.

What to talk about, of course, this road.The owner is not a husband and wife, but a couple of three.What's the difference?Of course, they were two husbands and a wife living together.

Well, it would be absurd to put it in the old world, but at this moment, not only is it not absurd, it is also envied by many people.No problem, the male to female ratio of the survivors is a bit disparate. If one husband and one wife are monogamous, a large part of the men will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law.

The three of them were originally refugees. Since the alliance wanted to build a heavy industry base near Jinmen, there was a constant flow of people and goods day and night, followed by robbery and murder.In order to protect this lifeline, the alliance built a series of watchtowers along the way and stationed troops to guard the road.

But just using it as an outpost, so much investment seems a bit wasteful, can it be used to the extreme?The answer is yes.Quite simply, the watchtower can also provide refueling, repair, food, drink and accommodation services for passing vehicles, which is equivalent to an ancient post station.
