In 1992, a small village owner became the richest man in the village by owning a car.

Chapter 523 Purchase temporary parts, delivery included.

Even with gloves on, Yu Dawei felt the heat. After opening the hood, he noticed blue smoke coming from the top of the engine and subconsciously frowned.

"Is this alright, Master?" The man took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, pulled out two, and handed them over.

"No, thanks." Yu Dawei shook his head, then looked at the engine again. "Start the car again so I can take a look."

"Okay, wait a minute." The man didn't waste any more words, turned around and ran to the car to turn the key.

However, just as the other party said, the engine was like a person with phlegm in their lungs, making a couple of whooshing sounds before shutting off again.

However, this time Yu Dawei could see clearly that in addition to emitting blue smoke, the engine also emitted a plume of white smoke.

As the engine was finally turned off, a burnt smell wafted straight to Yu Dawei's nose, igniting his inspiration.

"Damn, this is bad." Yu Dawei roughly figured out what the problem was with the car, turned to look at the man walking over, and said, "Dude, your car is overheating. The fuel injectors in the engine might be broken, and there might also be a problem with the radiator."

As Yu Dawei spoke, he bent down and looked at the ground. Sure enough, there was a puddle of water on the ground, which was obviously antifreeze that had leaked.

"That's going to be difficult." The man thought it was just a simple case of the car not starting, but who knew it would be so complicated. "This car used to burn oil, and I thought it could hold on until we found a repair shop in Lincheng to fix it properly. But alas, it broke down halfway there."

"Yeah, there's really no way around it. It'll definitely take some effort to fix the engine and radiator on the road." Yu Dawei shook his head helplessly. If it were a minor problem, he would have helped out, but it seems to be quite a big deal.

"Brother, what's your surname?" The man adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, then extended his hand. "Thank you so much. It's truly kind of you to lend a helping hand to someone I've only just met."

"My surname is Yu, Yu Dawei." Yu Dawei took off his gloves and shook hands with the other person, then explained with a smile, "No need to be so polite, everyone has times when they encounter difficulties."

Seeing that the other party was refined and polite, Yu Dawei said a few more words. He pointed east and said, "I asked around and found out that Lincheng is less than 100 kilometers ahead. I'm going there anyway. If all else fails, I have a rope in my car that I can use to pull your car."

"Oh!" The man, who had just lowered his hand, gripped Yu Dawei's hand tightly again, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Thank you so much, thank you so much!"

The man suddenly remembered that there was still bottled water in the car. After all, the other person had helped him earlier, so he quickly turned around, went to the car, took out two bottles of water, and handed one of them over: "Drink some water, drink some water."

"Hehe, okay." Yu Dawei didn't stand on ceremony; he was thirsty in this sweltering heat. "Brother, what's your surname? Are you also going to Lincheng?"

"Li Jianfeng, he's also going to Lincheng." The man adjusted his glasses and patted the car next to him somewhat embarrassedly. "This is a company car. If it can't be fixed, it'll be hard to explain when we get back."

"It's not that hard to fix. Any repair shop can fix it. It's just that it might require taking the engine and radiator off, which will be a bit of a hassle." Yu Dawei finished his mineral water in two gulps, turned to look at the man, and said, "You'll be following me for a while. Don't brake unnecessarily on the road. We'd rather go slower and arrive safely."

"understand."

Seeing that he had given enough instructions, Yu Dawei turned around and went back to his car. He first knocked on the window facing Zhang Huaijin, then opened the trunk and took out a three-meter-long sling.

Three meters is definitely not long enough; the distance between vehicles must be at least fifteen meters.

Yu Dawei rummaged through the trunk again and, thankfully, found two more five-meter-long slings.

This wasn't brought out by Yu Dawei; it was taken from the repair shop of Liugong Factory No. 2. He had already spoken to Zhang Ruimin about it.

The main reason was that Yu Dawei had never seen these three-colored tank tops before. Zhang Ruimin was also very considerate; seeing that he liked them, she took two without hesitation and gave them to him. Yu Dawei never expected that they would come in handy so soon.

First, tie the three straps securely. Then, Zhang Huaijin drove the car to the front of the Santana. Yu Dawei then used the straps to tie the back of his SUV to the front of the Santana.

After that, Yu Dawei turned on his hazard lights and slowly drove the Santana along.

It was still quite far from Lincheng, so Yu Dawei and Li Jianfeng discussed it and decided to take him to any towns they encountered along the way and find a repair shop.

We were quite lucky; after about an hour, we came across a county town and found a repair shop before it got dark.

Li Jianfeng was grateful to Yu Dawei and treated the three of them to a meal. In the end, they exchanged phone numbers, and Yu Dawei left with Dafeng and Zhang Huaijin.

During the meal, Yu Dawei asked Li Jianfeng about his work, but the other party hesitated and finally only said "it's a secret".

Yu Dawei didn't dwell on it too much. They were just strangers who had met by chance. He didn't have his second uncle's keen eye to spot someone who could be of interest to him on the street or somewhere else and then offer to help.

Yu Dawei was just doing it incidentally; maybe he could make a friend through this, as long as the other person knew he was a car mechanic.

At the very least, if someone comes to Heilongjiang Province in the future and their car breaks down, they will definitely think of me.

It was just a minor incident on the road.

The three of them sped off again, arriving in Lincheng, the city where the worker was located, before midnight.

Yu Dawei led the two to a hotel to stay in. They planned to rest for a morning the next day before calling the vice president to see when would be a better time to meet.

In theory, purchasing the parts should be a very easy task.

Even if the head office doesn't provide spare parts, he can go to the spare parts stores in Liucheng to check out the excavator parts that match LiuGong. Yu Dawei had already disassembled and looked at them in the LiuGong after-sales service yard before, so he knew exactly what he needed.

It all depends on how they negotiate.

In addition, we also need to bring out the quantity of spare parts that General Manager Zhao needs; there's a baby crying for food far away.

The following day, Yu Dawei contacted Cheng Yuan, the vice president of Lingong, and arranged to meet at a teahouse at 3 p.m.

They talked until evening, and Yu Dawei treated the other party to another meal before the matter was finally settled.

The next day, Yu Dawei took Zhang Huaijin and Yu Feng to sign the purchase contract and inspect the goods.

Lingong is a private enterprise. After arriving at the factory, I could clearly feel that its scale was smaller than that of Liugong, but it was still not comparable to a repairman like Yu Dawei.

Standing in the center of the factory, looking at the rows of yellow construction machinery, Yu Dawei felt a surge of excitement.

The harder he works, the more he realizes how difficult it is to build such a large company. It's not about having great opportunities or making a lot of money.
