Far away in Moscow

Chapter 266

"Haha! Not expensive!" Abasaf smiled heartily, "I originally planned to sell it for [-] rubles. Since your brother Anton wants to buy it, then... [-] rubles, how about it?"

"Eighty thousand? It doesn't sound too expensive..." Hu Yi put his hands behind his back and thought for a while: "Natasha, what do you think?"

"Let's try driving it first." Natasha stretched out her hand to Abasaf: "Is it okay?"

"Of course." Abasaf took out the car key from his purse: "Please feel free."

With the car keys in hand, Natasha immediately seemed to be a different person.She got in the car and adjusted the seat, told Hu Yi to sit in the co-pilot position, then quickly rolled her eyes to scan around the car, started the car, put it in gear and started slowly.

The car is relatively spacious, and the seats are fairly comfortable, but the car is filled with a faint smell of engine oil, which is a little pungent.Natasha walked around the neighborhood for a few weeks, then drove the car onto the road, circled around the entire block where the market was located, tried all the gears, and then drove back to the parking lot and parked firmly in the Beside Anna and Abasaf.

"Very good, the car is in good condition, it drives smoothly, and there is no major problem." Natasha got out of the car and checked the lights, opened the hood, touched here and there, and finally wiped her hands and flicked Hu Yi's hair: " Anton, it's a nice car."

"Okay, let's buy it!" Hu Yi was sitting by the side watching Natasha's skillful driving of the car just now, and his heart was already a little itchy, so he made a decision immediately: "Bring money to pick up the car in a few days!"

The next day, Natasha rented their favorite small house. After a simple cleaning, she began to add various items to their new home.

When Hu Yi graduated in the summer, he probably saved more than 1 US dollars. After returning to China, he spent some time inviting friends to a party for dinner, and took Natasha to play around and squandered a lot. Before I knew it, I used up most of it.

Now they have to pay the rent every month, and they plan to spend [-] rubles to buy the second-hand car, and they suddenly feel that they are not so well off.Fortunately, Natasha still had some meager savings. The two of them bought all the daily necessities such as sheets, bedding, pots and pans, and then decided to go to the flea market to buy some cheap old furniture.

The largest flea market in Moscow is next to the container market. There are all kinds of things here, and there are many customers all year round.Hu Yi and Natasha wandered around all day, picked out a very comfortable sofa, a very new TV, as well as electric fans, cabinets and other items, and quickly furnished the house in a warm and comfortable way. Full of life.

Everything was packed, and the two officially moved in.Natasha took all the [-] rubles to Liubrino to drive back the Opel. From then on, she went back and forth between the container market and the Liubrino market to help Anna buy goods. At night, she would spend time on the roads and open spaces near her home. Teach Hu Yi how to drive.

There is usually only a thin line between people's mentality changes about certain things.Hu Yi seldom cared about things related to cars before, but now he bought a car of his own at the instigation of Natasha and others, and he was immediately addicted to it and couldn't extricate himself.

Natasha has driven buses and large trucks, her driving skills are top-notch, and she is also good at teaching her apprentices.Hu Yi studied very seriously. After more than a month, he was able to calmly go on the road in places with fewer vehicles, and successfully obtained his driver's license.

When many people first learn to drive, they can't hold back their freshness and want to grab the steering wheel and hit the accelerator whenever they have the opportunity, and the young Hu Yi is no exception.However, he knows that the market is definitely not a place suitable for showing off, so he usually takes a minibus to and from work. Only when he returns home, he can’t wait to drive around the neighborhood, even if it’s just to buy milk at a store a few hundred meters away. You have to take the opportunity to enjoy the thrill of putting in gear and going on the road.

Driving is an experiential job, and the more you drive, the more proficient you become, and the more you drive, the bolder you become.Not many days later, Hu Yi was not satisfied with just walking around, driving farther and farther day by day.Sometimes after getting off work early, he even drove Natasha back to Youda, dozens of kilometers away, to visit Xiang Nan, Yu Feifei, Maxim and others. .

Li Baoqing soon found out about Hu Yi's purchase of a car, and he felt a little envious in his heart, but he pretended to be dismissive: "Hey, I really can't think about spending this unreasonable money to buy a classic car. But you are also considered a car owner." Now, when will you open it for me to see?"

"Am I burning buns? Look at these bosses, how many drive to the market?" Hu Yibai glanced at him: "Come home with me when you have time."

Li Baoqing was also young at heart, so he ran to Hu Yi's house that night.He circled the car around and around, sometimes with bright eyes, and sometimes with disdain: "This car looks quite grand, but it looks too old and a bit rusty."

"I can't help it, I'm poor, I can only buy this kind of classic car." Hu Yi smiled and leaned on the car and joked: "Your boss Li has such a big business, why don't you buy a Mercedes-Benz and BMW?"

"It's not very useful for me to buy a car now. And all my money is betting on the goods right now. When I make a lot of money in the future, hehe, I must buy a good car." Li Baoqing opened the door and got into the cab, and stretched out his hand to Hu Yi : "Where's the key? Let me have a good time first."

"What are you doing? Can you drive?"

"Hey, isn't this trivial?" Li Baoqing smiled disapprovingly: "The boss has a Volga, and I often use it to practice, no problem."

"Okay, it's so dark, you drive slowly." Hu Yi sat on the co-pilot's seat, hesitantly put on the seat belt again: "If you accidentally bump it, you have to repair the car for me. "

"Don't worry! You have only learned how to drive a few months ago? Let me show you what an old driver is." Li Baoqing quickly turned the key to start the car, shifted the gear step by step and stepped on the accelerator lightly, the car arched forward hard, The engine immediately shut down.

"Oh my god, are you the old driver?"

"Accident, it was pure accident. I'm not familiar with your car. The clutch and accelerator feel a bit unfamiliar." Li Baoqing restarted the car happily, and started to speed smoothly: "Here, look, is there any problem?"

Hu Yi sat in the car in fear for a while, seeing that Li Baoqing was driving safely, he gradually let go of his mind.

There were few cars nearby, and Li Baoqing believed in the rein of the horse and was having fun on the road. The two chatted without saying a word, and suddenly saw a Lada police car parked at the intersection ahead.

"Yo? It's so late, and the police are still patrolling the streets?" Hu Yi said with a casual smile, "Hey? Do you have a driver's license?"

"No." Li Baoqing blinked blankly, stared at the police car for a while, and said, "This should be a patrolman, they don't know how to check the driver's license?"

"Who will check you in the middle of the night? Isn't that crazy?" Hu Yi looked forward and shouted loudly: "Hey! Red light, brake quickly!"

"Ah?!" Li Baoqing stepped on the brake in a hurry, but unexpectedly stepped on the gas pedal.The old Opel suddenly accelerated, whizzed past the police cars on the side of the road, and rushed towards the opposite side of the intersection.

"There's something wrong with you!" Hu Yi was pushed tightly to the back of the seat, and he cursed angrily, "Can you drive a car? Can't you tell the difference between the accelerator and the brake?!"

Li Baoqing was also in a cold sweat when he stepped on the gas pedal by mistake, and just crossed the intersection, he slammed on the brakes again.I only heard a long series of piercing screams from the tires, and then the front of the car sank suddenly, and I was suffocated to death.

"Fuck me! Fuck me!" Li Baoqing frantically started the car and started again. He glanced in the rearview mirror and saw the flashing police lights, but it was the Lada police car slowly driving towards this side.

"My day? Why did the police come here?" Hu Yi also noticed the police car approaching, turned his head and stared blankly at the rear: "Is it because you ran a red light? No way?"

"Damn, it's really unlucky!" Li Baoqing hurriedly refueled and changed gears, intending to escape from the place of right and wrong as soon as possible.

As soon as Opel speeded up, Lada immediately caught up.Li Baoqing shifted to fourth gear in one breath, cursing and cursing angrily: "Grandma, little Lada, you run pretty fast! Didn't you just run a red light! These policemen are really full!"

The Chinese who went to Russia in the early years saw many social situations that made them feel strange, so they summed up four jingles: "In winter, a girl with her legs exposed, a fox is not as bad as a black old raven, and all the workers are old ladies. Darts run faster than rockets."

The old Lada sedan has a square head and a low design speed, but it is small and exquisite, with a light body. In the hands of Russians who love to drive fast, it can often feel like a small sports car.

Li Baoqing passed through two intersections in a row, and his speed quickly increased to [-] kilometers per hour.The Lada was always clinging to the back tightly, but it didn't get too close, but kept a short distance, as if it was afraid of something.

"Where is this?" After all, Li Baoqing felt guilty, staring at the road ahead and asked loudly: "Where should we go?"

"How do I know?! I've never been to this place!" Everything happened so quickly just now, and Hu Yi came back to his senses: "Why are you running! It's just running a red light, what's the matter!"

"Then what should I do?" Li Baoqing was a little at a loss, and lifted the accelerator slightly: "I don't have a driver's license yet, will I be fined if I get caught by the police?"

"If it's a big deal, give them some money! Is it necessary to run away? What if they are in a hurry?" Hu Yibai glanced at him, twisted his waist and leaned back: "Listen, the police seem to be shouting."
