Sword and Magic and Taxi
Chapter 1: I am a part-time driver
Yawning, slapped the alarm clock with a slap, and slammed back the ringing bell that was about to ring. Zhao Mai had already developed agility and quick response. He was also very sensitive to time and would never let the alarm ring really ring. . It is half past two in the morning, and he has been writing a book, and he has not slept at all. Next door lived a pair of lightly sleeping elderly people who were still very grumpy. If the alarm clock really rings, you will have to complain again the next day.
The alarm clock is the last resort, in case he forgets the agreement. In fact, it is his own biological species that is really powerful. He feels that the time is the time. He has never missed it. He has never missed anything blindfolded for a few seconds. Washing his face with cold water and taking another gulp of iced drink, Zhao Mai felt that he had come back from the fantasy world of writing a book. He rests during the day, he codes in the evening, and is a special car driver at night. He sets the alarm clock to prevent him from missing the car appointment. After all, a bad review may make him earn less tips.
His original name was Zhao Yimai, and acquisition means one-pass single pass. Later, family planning was released, and his parents added a pair of siblings to him, so he was renamed Zhao Mai. The three bedrooms and one living room in his original home couldn't be crowded with so many people, so he rented a house outside to live by himself. Because he couldn't get used to the manager's face full of intestines, Zhao Mai completed the process of graduation, employment and unemployment in less than a year. With a strong nature, he was reluctant to ask his parents for help, so he concealed his own firing of the boss and tried every means to support himself.
He has a car. As for the model, whether there will be a sponsor after reading the book, after all, no one can say what will become popular and how the advertisement will be placed. There is nothing strange about this car. The four-wheeled sedan was still a late-coming "adult gift" which was saved by his father when he got his driver's license when he was a junior. Parents told Zhao Mai that because of the younger brother and younger sister, they cared less about him unknowingly. However, Zhao Mai is already an adult. According to foreign terms, he is able to support himself. Excessive care will affect his life. Parents who watch foreign TV series give their children a car, and they are no exception. So this car became Zhao Mai's treasure.
This car will always exist at the end of the book, longer than the magical masterpiece The Lord of the Rings. Since the title of the book is "Sword, Magic and Taxi", is there really no sponsor?
If not, then the name of this car is called "THE·CHE", all letters should be capitalized, which means that this is a proper noun and it is more unique. In case a sponsor decides to support it, the author can also use the full text search Replacement function, convenient, um.
Zhao Mai has no other skills, writing books is barely one. Although it won't be a big hit-maybe in the future-but it can finally be seen, barely able to earn enough chew (that is, rations). He likes swords and magic and related things, so he is probably a fantasy novelist. If he had a better Chinese and knew more characters when he was in school, he might write fantasy or fairy tales.
It takes imagination to write a book, and coupled with the life of a single dog, Zhao Mai sometimes talks to himself in his mind, which is equivalent to talking and writing. If you are in the world of cross talk, this is called stand-up comedy; if you are making a movie, it is called a voiceover or narration; if you are in the second dimension, this is the bubble dialog box with text that pops up on the top of the character's head. From the writing point of view, this is called expressing the psychological activities of the characters, plumping the character image of the characters, increasing the reader's sense of substitution, and making up the word count.
Get back to the subject. Since writing a book is at the level of being incomplete, and only living enough to have enough food and clothing, if you want to improve your life, you have to drive a special car to earn some pocket money. He especially likes business from early morning to early morning. In the middle of the night, he can code words, and in the second half of the night, he drives. At this time, there are few cars, few people, and few exhausts. Most of them are people who catch trains and planes. They can go and return. If you can say a few auspicious words, be a life mentor, give them a few bites of salty and not salty soul chicken soup, and coax them in a good mood, you may earn extra tips. Another important reason is that you can buy a delicious breakfast after work is finished early in the morning. The warm and fragrant millet porridge and the oily Xiaolongbao can greatly improve your sleep quality after eating.
The customer I picked up today—why this sentence is so strange—was an old man with a Mediterranean hairstyle and a finger-long white hair surrounded by age spots that look like a map. Although his body was thin and his knuckles protruding, he was in good spirits, and his eyes were piercing, and he was not tired of riding in a car in the middle of the night.
"The elderly who catch the midnight flight can still be so energetic. This is the first time I have seen you. Old man, do you live a long time?"
"Four hundred and twenty-eight years old." The old man's voice is full of magnetism and full of breath.
"You wouldn't count as one year old in 60 days according to the Taoist algorithm?" Zhao Mai's flattering chicken soup was quickly delivered: "You have a good mentality. You can make jokes with young people like me. You are indeed at the age of whatever you want. "
"You still know this allusion, it's not easy. What books do you usually read?"
It's good to have a topic, as long as the chat is open, Zhao Mai can keep up with any subject. "Read all books, those who are knowledgeable, knowledgeable, mind-hearted, and happy. There are too many books in this world. There are so many books in this world, which one to read and which one to pick. But the ability to distinguish between good and bad is still It’s like driving a car to see the passengers. I won’t pick up those with fierce eyes, trances, and the smell of alcohol. It’s not enough to bother with money. For elderly people like you, I’m willing to greet them. Nothing else. Say, I drove quite steadily, even people with motion sickness can't feel it."
"That's true." The old man nodded, looked at Zhao Mai up and down, and twisted the corners of his mouth with his thumb, just like a gourmet saw an exquisite dish. "Boy, how much can you make by driving a month?"
"I really haven't counted it. Driving a car is not my main business. I am not afraid of your jokes. I write a book online and rely on fans to support me. If I make money alone, I can't compare to drivers who drive taxis. I hate traffic jams. That's a waste of life, isn't it? So how much money can I make if I only pick up the reserved car list at this time?"
"Young people write books, which is great. What kind of books are you writing?"
This old man is more talkative than Zhao Mai thought, and he actually knows what fantasy is. If you talk about elves, dwarves, and dragons, it's unambiguous. Zhao Mai wouldn't be surprised if he were a peer who was fifty years younger, but looking at his gray hair, where did the legendary generation gap go?
"Don't look at me with that strange look in the mirror. It's very impolite. I'm a translator. I've depended on translating foreign literature for most of my life, so I've seen no less miscellaneous things than you. My son currently works in a publishing house. From time to time, I will bring some books that I want to get the batch number back to work overtime, and I will help him to look at it, so I know more. We are destined when we meet, I see your bones..."
Skeleton surprise was not finished, Zhao Mai's phone rang, the ringtone was a very exciting march, quite a bit of a military parade. Both the otaku and the taxi master have obsessive-compulsive disorder that "never see the battery indicator turning red", so as long as they are not talking on the phone, the phone is always charged.
took a glance and found that it was his sister who was calling, and a big picture of her was dangling with the bell. Zhao Mai was once able to call Zhao Yimai, which shows how casual his parents named him. After this tradition continued, Zhao Mai's younger brother was called Zhao Xiaofeng, and Zhao Mai's sister was called Zhao Xiaoluan—all birds anyway.
It's past four o'clock in the morning, and it should be when my lazy sister is sleeping, why did you call me? Zhao Mai said to the old man in the car: "Sorry, I have to answer this call. There may be something urgent. I will use the speakerphone for driving safety. Please don't speak up. My family still doesn't know about my private car driving in the middle of the night. Please also keep it secret for me."
The old man blinked his eyes and made a motion of tightening the zipper on his mouth, and then leaned on the back of the seat to sleep.
My sister’s voice was very low, and it seemed that she was secretly calling from hiding, and 80% of it was in the toilet. "Brother, be quiet, I'm hiding in the bathroom to call you. Dad is ill and has chronic renal failure. He has reached the point where he needs a kidney transplant. He is now on dialysis."
A thunderbolt blasted in Zhao Mai's head on a sunny day. He shook his hand and the car shook. He recovered quickly, took a few deep breaths, and quickly asked, "How did you know, are you sure?"
"Yesterday, I found my mother had red eyes and seemed to cry. When I asked her, I didn’t say anything. Later, my brother happened to see my mother looking at some documents and secretly crying. We thought that my father had someone else outside, so I took advantage of my mother to buy food. When I opened the drawer and took a peek, I realized that it was my father’s diagnosis and case. Brother, what should I do? I checked it on the Internet and found that this disease is painful and requires regular dialysis in the hospital. Only a kidney transplant can cure it."
Chronic renal failure in its advanced stage is commonly known as uremia, and the safest treatment is to change the kidney. But there are so many kidneys that can be replaced, and you can only queue slowly in the hospital. The maintenance therapy is dialysis, which uses machines to replace the kidneys to remove toxins accumulated in the blood, which is very painful and expensive.
If I can have a large sum of money, maybe I can think of other ways to help my father relieve the pain as soon as possible. But I don't have a serious job. My brother and sister are in junior high school, and when they are still spending money, the family definitely can't come up with such a sum of money.
"Sister, I know, I call home with all the money I have, and then I will think of a way. You and your brother will look after your parents at home, don't let them worry. Two people study hard, spend less, don't Let the adults worry, so that they can maintain a better mood. In any case, Dad's treatment can't be stopped, you know?"
sister sobbed, UU reading www. uukanshu.com quietly agreed.
"I still have a big brother at home. You two must do your own thing first, that is, study. Now listen to me, turn off the phone and go to bed, get up in the morning and be a good and filial child. ?"
"I see, brother, you have to take care."
Then the phone hung up.
The carriage became silent for a while, and anyone who encounters such a thing will fall into a moment of depression.
"Young man, are you okay? There are no obstacles in the world. Difficulties can always be overcome slowly."
"I know." Zhao Mai said, "There was no problem at home for a while, but my father suffered a serious crime this time. Alas, my mother has a strong temper and always wants to bear it on her own. She must be the most uncomfortable."
"This disease can be cured, so it's not something the sky has fallen." The old man said to him in a comforting tone: "An old friend of mine once said, but any trouble that can be solved with money is not a trouble."
"But not having money is the biggest trouble?" Zhao Mai smiled reluctantly, and said, "If I have one million eight hundred thousand now, how can I find a relationship so that my father can have the operation earlier, so as to avoid the odds and ends. The pain of suffering. Better treatment, better treatment conditions, which one does not cost money? But you are right, this is not a desperate situation, after all, it is a disease that can be treated. Elderly, if you have anything to do Take care of the work of making money."
"If you have fate, there is no problem." When the old man spoke, the light green light in his eyes flashed. The driver had calmed down and looked at the front intently without noticing this scene.
