life struggle

From Yuanzhen to Pingdong is a provincial road and the only road leading to Pingdong, with a distance of more than 80 kilometers. 【 】Most of the buses sent from Yuanzhen to various places have been contracted to individual operators since the end of the [-]s. The so-called state-owned vehicles have long since faded out of people's vision.

Although the car is seriously overcrowded, in order to attract more passengers and earn more money, the car owner doesn't care about it. It is quite normal for the conductor to grab the passengers on the side of the road and pull them onto the car.The driver kept the speed of the car low, like a snake, and the conductor sat in the passenger seat, opened the window, and kept yelling loudly, "Get on the bus to Pingdong, get on the bus to Pingdong, fellow, yes!" Let’s go to Pingdong, there are still seats, get on the bus quickly.”

It was the first time for Xiaojun to ride a passenger car, so he was very curious about everything.I thought to myself, why are the drivers and conductors so bad? It is obvious that the car is full of people, and it is very difficult for people to breathe. Wicked with smoke.

"Driver, stop the car, stop the car, how much is it to Pingdong?" There was a man in his fifties on the side of the road, carrying a black suitcase in his hand, and standing beside him was a man in a black and white plaid top. , a girl with a shofar braid, and the two of them stared at the conductor.

The driver stopped the car, and the conductor yelled, "It's 20 yuan per person to Pingdong, come up quickly."

"Conductor, aren't you asking for the price indiscriminately? From here to the Pingdong ticket station, it only sells for six yuan. How can you ask for twenty? Six yuan and six yuan." The man said suspiciously.

"Tell you, there is only this bus to Pingdong this morning. The other cars are on business trips. There will be one at 20:[-] pm at the earliest. It costs [-] yuan. If you want to sit, you can just wait. If you don't take it, you can wait. One car Everyone is waiting, don't waste time." The conductor said in a mysterious way.

The man was a little hesitant, "Is this okay? Is 15 yuan okay for me and my daughter?"

"No, at least thirty."

During their bargaining, the driver started the vehicle and moved slowly, giving the impression that he was about to leave.The man had no choice but to agree to get in the car.Since the door was full of people, it was difficult to open.The conductor yelled: "Stand up next to the door, open the door."

"People can't move anymore. How can you fill in all the passengers you can't handle? How can you load them up when you're so crowded?"

"You guys are too outrageous. There were almost 26 people in the seat for 50 people. You can't just try to make money and don't care about our life or death. What if something happens."

The people in the car complained and yelled.

"Why so much nonsense, our car is fine, it can seat up to sixty people, it's still early! Hurry up, open the door, you, you, two big men with great strength, stand up, no It was free." Obviously, the conductor was a little anxious, and angrily reprimanded the two people by the door.The driver stopped the car, "I tell you, if you don't open the door, no one can leave. The delay is everyone's business. It doesn't matter to us if we arrive at the station sooner or later. Anyway, today Just send this trip, you can figure it out.” After speaking, the driver turned off the ignition, opened the door, got out of the car and went to the side of the road to smoke.Leave a whole car full of people to dry, no matter what.

"Look, look, isn't it just to let the car door open? Everyone is too ignorant of the rules. No, the driver master is angry. This master has a big temper. Our boss usually doesn't mess with him. I'm afraid he will get stuck today." Alright, if you don’t get on, I’ll really throw everyone here.” The conductor raised his voice deliberately.

This trick was really effective, and there was no sound in the car. The two big men in front of the car door resisted vigorously, pushing the people above to the side to make a little space. The conductor took the opportunity to open the car door and rushed at the man and his daughter. Shouted, "Come on, come on, come on up."

"Comrade, how can so many people go up, and they can't go up. Besides, I still have a box here."

"I won't put the box up, but put it on the roof of the car. Anyway, you're not afraid of the rain." As he spoke, he snatched the box from the man's hand, and put it on the roof of the car from the ladder behind the car. "Master Yang, let's go."

"Okay, let's get on the road." The driver smiled knowingly, started the engine quickly, and the car accelerated forward.

Looking at what happened in front of him, Xiaojun felt that the driver and the conductor seemed to be singing double reeds to deceive everyone.Why are people like this now, they are all focused on money, and they don’t want professional ethics, safety, and family affection for money.In fact, people who often drive have encountered similar situations.In the local area, the passenger car transportation is developing rapidly, and there is a great pressure of competition among them. In order to compete for the route and compete for customers, car owners smashed each other's cars, beat each other badly, and even killed people. The strong survive, monopolize routes and passenger sources, and treat passengers with confidence and no mercy.

The speed of the car was getting faster and faster, the car was shaking and bumping, and the people in the car adjusted their standing positions as much as possible with the support of the people around them. Although they couldn't move, the distance was not far and the time was not long, so they could still hold on. They also gradually quieted down, and some of them had already sounded sound asleep.Suddenly, the vehicle slammed on the brakes, and the people suddenly leaned forward and backward. The person standing in front of Xiaojun was hit by someone else. With a click, the glasses were knocked to the ground and shattered, but fortunately they didn't break the eyes and skin.People were stunned by the sudden brake.They opened the car windows one after another, and looked out to see what happened.

At this time, the sky is already bright, the rain has stopped, the sky is full of fish scales and clouds, and people also take the opportunity to breathe fresh air.The driver got out of the car, and the conductor also opened the door and walked down.Passengers also got out of the car one after another, stretched their muscles and bones, took a rest in the cotton field by the roadside, and mostly wanted to see what happened.

There was a car accident, someone was injured, call an ambulance, someone shouted, someone went to a nearby shop and dialed "1".Xiaojun got out of the car, looked in front of the car, and was stunned. There was a very miserable scene in front of him.The bus hit a tree with its head, and the front bumper was bent into an "S" shape. If it hadn't hit the tree, it would have rushed directly into a ditch more than two meters deep on the side of the road, and the car might have overturned.A donkey cart in front of the car was hit by a car, and the soybeans on the cart were scattered all over the ground. A donkey was lying on the ground with its head covered in blood. The old farmer was covered in mud, with blood flowing down his trouser legs, moaning non-stop.The driver and the conductor kept yelling beside the old man, "Master, wake up, wake up, how is your injury?" Xiaojun had never seen such a tragic scene, his heart pounded, and his whole body felt goosebumps Pimple, stood aside for a long time in a daze.

Wu Pingshun saw that Xiaojun was standing motionless on the ground, his eyes were in a daze. Knowing that his son was afraid, he gave him a hand, "Xiaojun, there was a car accident. Don't look at it. It seems that this bus will hardly reach the station today. There is still more than 30 miles away from Pingdong Railway Station. Let's not wait here. Just take a short-distance bus and walk for a while. Even if you walk another ten miles, you can take a bus when you reach the city. It's faster than waiting here."

"Okay, Dad, I felt like throwing up just looking at it. It's too scary. I really didn't expect that I would be so recited for the first time on a long trip. It didn't go well. I really don't know what will happen next."

"No one knows what will happen ahead. Remember, don't cause trouble if you have nothing to do, and don't be afraid of trouble when you encounter trouble. You have to calm down and calm things down. You wait, I will tell the conductor and take the luggage away. Come down." Wu Pingshun comforted Xiaojun in a low voice, and after speaking, he came to the conductor, explained the situation, and took back his luggage.With Xiaojun on his back, the two walked forward for about ten meters. A man and a girl were standing on the side of the road, intercepting passing vehicles.When Xiaojun raised his head, he was looking at the girl, and they both said in unison, "Oh, why is it you?".
