The train driver in the courtyard

Chapter 39: Tandem Bicycles

slam
The big iron chain fell on the black iron door with a crisp sound.

The iron door opened slowly, and the sunlight shone in, dispelling the darkness inside.

patter
The warehouse clerk flicks on an incandescent light bulb.

Li Aiguo looked at it with the help of the dim light, and was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.

In the huge warehouse, all kinds of objects are piled up to the brim.

"Let me see, bike accessories should be in"

The lady administrator opened the notebook with a furry edge, adjusted the frame of her tortoiseshell glasses, "The batch of bicycles that were inspected last time is in the corner over there."

She turned her head to greet Li Aiguo, and when she saw the young man standing next to Li Aiguo, the corners of her mouth couldn't help twitching again.

Even if it's summer, this master can't bare his back.

what's going on?

Do you think the tendons in that body are very handsome?
Ah.
Don't tell me, this guy is really capable.

The administrator lady blushed slightly.

Li Aiguo looked at Liu Haizhu beside him, speechless.

Liu Haizhu repairs bicycles by profession.

Li Aiguo got the approval slip from the locomotive depot, and wanted to make bicycle parts to save bicycles, so he immediately thought of Liu Haizhu.

early morning.

He found Liu Haizhu and explained his purpose.

Liu Haizhu threw down the wrench, pushed out the bicycle, and went to the locomotive depot with Li Aiguo to select parts.

Friends are eager to help, which is something to be happy about.

It's just that Liu Haizhu didn't wear a shirt at the time.

Wearing a bucket hat, black denim pants on the lower body, and yellow clay shoes on the feet. The upper body is gone.

Going shirtless on the street is indecent, Li Aiguo persuaded Liu Haizhu to wear short sleeves for the sake of city appearance.

Liu Haizhu would rather die than die.

It was as if that coat was an iron vest, as long as he wore it, it would bind his soul.

Li Aiguo could only endure it.

Just like that, a young man with a bare upper body was running wildly on the street on a bicycle.

In the back seat of the car was a younger guy.

Li Aiguo recalled the weird eyes of passers-by at that time, and wished he could find a crack in the ground and sneak in.

hemp eggs.

Next time I ride Liu Haizhu's bicycle, he will be a dog.

Facing the surprised gaze of the administrator, Liu Haizhu raised his head gloriously.

Li Aiguo smiled awkwardly: "Comrade, he thinks it's too hot... too hot"

"Problem!"

The lady administrator muttered something in a low voice, and walked to a pile of parts: "Here, these are the seized parts. You can only assemble them here, and you can't take them out."

"Assembled here?"

"Of course, you think, so many parts, if you take out one and I take out one, won't our locomotive depot be empty?"

The administrator lady said righteously: "No matter how small a public matter is, it is a big matter, and no matter how big a personal matter is, it is still a small matter."

As soon as these words came out, Li Aiguo could only give a thumbs up.

just.

They didn't come with tools, how to assemble it?

Just when Li Aiguo was thinking about going back to bring tools, Liu Haizhu pulled out a wrench from his pants.

Seeing Li Aiguo's surprised expression, he stared wide-eyed: "What's wrong? I'm a car repairer, and I carry a wrench with me, isn't it normal?"

"It's normal."

Li Aiguo looked Liu Haizhu up and down: "It's just that I can't figure it out. Where did you get such a big wrench from?"

Liu Haizhu: "."

Liu Haizhu, who never felt ashamed, turned red at this moment.

Li Aiguo looked at the wrench and couldn't help taking two steps back.

He would never touch that wrench later.

Because they are all inspected parts, there are various types.

The permanent bumper, the Flying Pigeon’s seat, the Phoenix’s front wheel, the Baishan’s rear wheel, and the Golden Deer’s brake.

There are also a lot of unpackaged and unbranded parts.

Liu Haizhu's eyes were shining, as if he had entered a treasure mountain, and quickly picked out a lot of parts.

"Good things, all good things!"

"Patriotic, just wait and see, I will assemble a bicycle for you, the most solid bicycle in the capital."

Liu Haizhu picked up the wrench, dazzled by his movements, and tapped it a few times from time to time to make appropriate modifications to the parts.

Two hours later, Liu Haizhu came out pushing his bicycle.

"How about it, is it solid enough?"

Li Aiguo didn't know whether the porcelain was solid or not, but it was indeed strange.

The front and rear wheels of this bicycle are made up of two rows of wheels.

The whole car has four wheels.

There are also two horizontal bars, and the front fork, front axle, center axle, chain, flywheel, and rear axle are all two sets.

Tightly fastened together by iron clasps.

There are also two bells, one on the left handle and one on the right handle.

There are also two sets of pedals, one at the front and one at the rear.

"Well, this is specially designed by me, so that two people can ride the bicycle at the same time."

Seeing that Li Aiguo was stunned, Liu Haizhu explained proudly: "The speed must be very good. If you are chased by the Qingpis, they will definitely not be able to catch you."

"Also, this bicycle has four wheels, so even if you don't have a high level of riding, you won't fall over."

Li Aiguo was already shocked from ear to ear.

If this bicycle is added with a roof, isn't it just a tandem bicycle in the park of later generations?
"Come on, don't be dazed, try it quickly."

Li Aiguo took the bicycle and tried pushing it.

Don't tell me, Liu Haizhu is not serious in appearance, but his craftsmanship is very serious.

The four-wheeled bicycle does not make any abnormal noise, and the wheels turn extremely lightly, as if assembled by a bicycle manufacturer.

"Liu Haizhu, you're really resigned if you don't go to the bicycle factory to do design." Li Aiguo gave a thumbs up.

"Hey, well, I'm just a bicycle repairer. This is true knowledge from practice, and wisdom from labor."

"You're welcome, you're welcome, with your unique skills, you can completely modify bicycles for others."

"Hey, I also want to modify it, but I don't have the materials. If it weren't for you today, I wouldn't be able to live this hand addiction."

The two were arguing with each other in business, when the admin lady came over with a notebook and asked, "You've assembled it. What the hell did you do?"

Her gaze fell on the bicycle, as if someone had grabbed her neck, and her voice stopped abruptly.

"...Eh... No, how can you use two sets of bicycle materials?" She pointed to the four-wheeled bicycle with a look of shock on her face.

"That's not okay!"

Li Aiguo looked serious: "Ma'am, let me ask you, is this a bicycle?"

The lady administrator looked at the bicycle hysterically for a long time, and nodded hesitantly: "It has wheels, a chain, and a flywheel, so it should be considered a bicycle."

"That's okay. Since the regulations in our warehouse are that only one bicycle can be assembled and parts cannot be taken out, we are not violating the regulations."

After listening to Li Aiguo's words, the administrator lady always felt that something was wrong, but she couldn't say it out.

Li Aiguo thought for a while, and then said: "Don't worry, I will record the materials used, hand them over to Duan, and then make up the extra money, so I won't embarrass you."

We, Li Aiguo, cannot do such a thing as taking advantage of the public.

"If you say that, it's a bicycle."

The administrator lady let out a sigh of relief.

As an administrator, the most important thing is to be able to check the accounts.

As long as the higher-ups don't pursue it, why should she cause trouble.

Moreover.

This tandem bike is really interesting.

Go back to the garage.

Liu Haizhu installed a grinding motor on the tandem bicycle, installed lights on the front of the car, applied engine oil to the chain, adjusted the brakes, took out a dry rag, and wiped the tandem bicycle carefully.

After the tandem bicycle was polished and shiny, Liu Haizhu reluctantly handed over the bicycle to Li Aiguo.

"Patriotic, I hope you will treat it well in the future."

"Don't worry." Li Aiguo took out the money from his pocket: "How much should I save for the car?"

Liu Haizhu put on a serious face: "Patriotic, I think you are insulting my ideals and the friendship between us."

Seeing Liu Haizhu's insistence, Li Aiguo didn't say much, and put the money back into his pocket.

If there is a chance in the future, just buy two bottles of good wine for Liu Haizhu.
