Chapter 554 554. Heading to Guangdong Province

The completion of the position of racing engineer means that the basic crew configuration of a professional team is completed.

Previously, Xu Jia and Lao Jiugui were hesitating between building the team framework first or finishing the car frame first. Unexpectedly, the team framework was the one step ahead in the end.

After everything was settled, Xu Jia called the old drunkard and briefly explained to him what had been discussed.

It's just that the voice of the old drunkard on the other end of the phone was very confused, and he looked like he was still hungover. It seemed that he drank late in the store alone last night.

After listening to what Xu Jia said, the old drunkard replied in a sleepy and fluffy tone: "I understand, you can pack your things and go to Lao Shen's repair shop later. Today we will go to Guangdong Province."

"So fast? Uncle Xu, you didn't say anything drunk, did you?"

Xu Jia was very surprised. He thought it would take at least a few days to prepare, but he set off today?

"Didn't you say that after you get your racing license, you can directly sign up for the highest level event you can run in? I have registered it for you now. Do you have any other questions?"

"No, I just..."

Xu Jia was about to explain a few words, but a blind tone of hangup came directly from the other end of the phone, making him swallow what he wanted to say next.

Damn, the old drunkard really has a personality!

Reluctantly putting away the phone, Xu Jia turned around, looked at Qin Hao and Li Wenfeng, and said, "I'm going to Guangdong Province today. Since you two have decided to go, you can take care of the things at hand in the past few days. , let’s join together in Guangdong Province.”

"Xu Lang is worthy of being the king of speed. He is very efficient."

At this time, Li Wenfeng said in an admiring tone. You must know that many domestic rally drivers have regarded the old drunkard as their idol. It is obvious that Li Wenfeng is one of them.

"No problem, Guangdong Province will join forces then."

Qin Hao is as straightforward as ever, and after all, Guangdong Province is his territory!

"Okay, I'll go first."

After Xu Jia finished saying this, he got into the Mazda RX7. He knew the old drunkard Lei Lingfeng's character, so he had to move quickly.

After returning to the rental house and grabbing a few pieces of clothing, Xu Jia immediately drove to Uncle Shen's repair shop on Changxing Street. However, the scene was different from what he saw twice before. This time, there was a large container truck parked in the open space in the yard.

Brother Niu was sitting in the driving seat of the container truck, while the old drunkard was standing at the front of the truck, lighting a cigarette for himself.

"The speed is okay."

Seeing Xu Jia coming over, the old drunkard puffed out the smoke and said lightly.

"Uncle Xu, what's going on?"

Xu Jia didn't understand this gesture and pointed at the container truck and asked.

"Racing car transporter, transport the Mitsubishi EVO from the warehouse."

The old drunkard actually got a racing transport truck?

Xu Jia was very surprised. You must know that professional racing cars are different from performance cars and cannot be legally driven on the road. Therefore, transportation between each event location requires a special vehicle. This vehicle is called an event transport vehicle. .

Moreover, the event transport vehicle is not only responsible for transportation tasks, but also contains various maintenance equipment and racing parts. The maintenance of the car during the entire competition depends entirely on this event transport vehicle. It can be said to be a small logistics base.

In the movie "Flying Life", the navigator played by Yin Zheng, the container truck that overturned on the eve of the race was the event transport vehicle of the professional team.

Xu Jia really didn't expect that the old drunkard would even prepare a transport vehicle for the event. It seemed that he had far underestimated the efficiency of this once the strongest rally driver in China!

"Uncle Xu, are you planning to let me drive a Mitsubishi EVO?"

Xu Jia asked, he had already selected the Subaru Impreza as the racing car, why did he ship the Mitsubishi EVO over now?

And to be honest, Xu Jia is not very willing to drive a racing car that carries the honor of an old drunkard. This is his past. "Subaru doesn't arrive and modify it that quickly. Let's practice with this car first."

"Besides, EVO is already outdated ten years ago. Even if you have talent, you can't outrun your opponents in this car."

After finishing speaking, the old drunkard threw the cigarette butts on the ground and stamped them out, then opened the door of the event transport vehicle and said: "Get ready to get in the car and set off."

"Uncle Shen isn't going?"

There were only three seats in the event transport vehicle. The old drunkard allowed himself to sit on it. It was obvious that there was no room for Uncle Shen.

You must know that according to Xu Jia's previous assumption, Uncle Shen was a member of the team's maintenance team. Otherwise, the maintenance technician would be Brother Niu alone, which would be too stressful.

"The future belongs to you young people, and I, an old guy, will not get there."

Shen Zhi next to him heard Xu Jia's words and smiled at him and said something.

"Uncle Shen, is it inappropriate to call yourself an old guy at your age?"

Xu Jia still didn't give up. Although Uncle Shen was a semi-monk maintenance technician, he at least had competition experience and might be able to guide Li Wenfeng.

But at this time, Shen Zhi shook his head, then patted Xu Jia on the shoulder and said: "My and Lao Xu's careers ended three years ago, and this era no longer belongs to us. If it weren't for you, Lao Xu would Xu won’t pass either, so don’t let him down.”

This sentence made Xu Jia understand that his "old guy" did not refer to his age, but to his own mentality. Uncle Shen no longer had the heart to enter the profession again.

"I see."

Xu Jia nodded, he could understand Uncle Shen's mood.

But this atmosphere of instructions and sustenance was immediately shattered by the old drunkard's mouth.

"What are you being pretentious about here? Xu Jia, if you don't get in the car quickly, are you planning to spend the night here?"

If he hadn't been thinking about the old drunkard's help to him and being an elder, Xu Jia really couldn't help but want to give him the middle finger!

"Let's go, Uncle Shen."

Xu Jia waved his hand, and then got into the event transport vehicle. Brother Niu then lightly stepped on the accelerator, and the entire vehicle slowly drove away from the repair shop.

The distance from Donghai to Guangdong Province takes sixteen or seventeen hours, even if you take the expressway. Xu Jia, Brother Niu, and the old drunkard took turns driving. Putting aside meals and bathroom breaks, it took almost a full day to arrive at Guangshen City in Guangdong Province.

Brother Niu drove the last part of the journey. He drove the racing transport vehicle to an open space in the suburbs. Several abandoned factory buildings could still be seen vaguely in the distance.

But when Xu Jia got off the car, he realized that this place was not just an open space, but the outline of the track layout could be vaguely seen.

It's just that the track hasn't been maintained for a long time and has become overgrown with weeds, making it look like a wilderness clearing.

"Brother Niu, what is this place?"

Xu Jia asked, and Brother Niu drove in because he was very familiar with the last section of the road. It was obvious that this was not his first time here.

"Restarted Guangshen Base!"

Brother Niu, who has always been relatively honest and steady, had an uncontrollable glow on his face when he said the words "Guangzhou-Shenzhen Base", revealing the excitement in his heart.

Even the old drunkard's eyes flashed with light when he heard this word. It was obvious that this wasteland was equally important in his heart.
