Carrying a Jurassic on me-Chapter 1263 - 623: Traveling by Truck_4

The argument up front didn’t last very long, and soon a driver went over to mediate. Of course, it was the driver we’ve heard of, who eventually compromised. However, the two collecting the fee were not happy, "No, the fine is at least two hundred!"

The driver was displeased again, "Why is it only twenty for everyone else but two hundred for me?"

"Why don’t you understand why by yourself?" The fee collector sneered. "Keep arguing, and the price will increase."

After all the arguing, like an arm unable to twist a leg, the driver still ended up handing over two hundred to drive off.

The drivers behind him all obediently lined up, paid the money, and drove off. In reality, this was not common, but almost every driver who often traveled that road had encountered it. Drivers would say, "people stand by the roadside in the middle of the night, not easy to fulfill their tasks, just twenty yuan, don’t be stingy!"

Knowing there was no way out without paying, very few stood their ground, especially the big trucks that needed to reach their destinations quickly, some even had to be in the city area before seven in the morning, so they couldn’t afford to waste time.

When it was Yan Fei’s turn, he too casually pulled out twenty yuan from his pocket and handed it over directly.

The two inspecting the vehicles might not have been official; anyhow, they wore uniforms. But since all payments were unreceipted, Yan Fei didn’t care, saw them take the money, and drove off without waiting for them to wave him through.

But the girl hadn’t experienced these things and didn’t understand, so she asked him, "What’s going on? We aren’t hauling anything, are we?"

"It’s just the fee. Whether we haul or not, we have to pay. This big vehicle, they can always find faults if they want. Didn’t you see the vehicle upfront? They even delayed their time," Yan Fei explained. "Big vehicles are like this, always problematic. Just twenty yuan, it’s just the cost of two tire repairs..."

Being the boss didn’t mean he ignored everything. Old Ou used to drive out and encounter numerous situations. Whenever he returned and gossiped about it, Yan Fei had heard plenty.

When with his wife, sometimes Boss Yan was still quite easygoing, not wanting to create unnecessary complications.

But for the girl seeing such dishonest practices for the first time, it was somewhat intolerable: "Twenty yuan is still money! Besides, our vehicle is fine, we didn’t even need a tire repair! Really, why doesn’t anyone deal with this?"

Her husband was already a nouveau riche, but the girl’s penny-pinching habits hadn’t changed yet.

Yan Fei even laughed as he explained, "Some places are just poor, depending on this to increase their income. Besides, nowadays, drivers make good money. If they encounter a toll, they escape if they can. Just think of it as paying a road fee, everyone struggles after all."

"It just doesn’t sit right with me!" The girl still muttered discontentedly, stopping her shoulder massage.

Now it was Boss Yan who felt uncomfortable, "Keep going, why did you stop?"

Actually, the strength the girl used for the massage was almost just like kneading, but it felt different! freёwebnoѵel.com

The girl pouted, "I don’t feel like doing it anymore, I’m upset."

Alright then!

Yan Fei parked the car by the roadside, opened the door, and jumped out, "Wait here, I’ll go blow off some steam."

Money was a small matter, but if his wife felt uncomfortable, how could he still claim to be a husband without addressing it?

The girl was afraid he might cause trouble, urgently calling him a few times from inside the car, but outside it was pitch dark, and soon Yan Fei’s figure by the roadside vanished from sight.

The girl didn’t have to worry for long; not much later, Boss Yan came back looking all smiles.

"What did you do?" The girl was very anxious.

"Nothing much, I just considered that twenty yuan as a few tires." Yan Fei started the car and continued on. "I dismounted theirs and threw it in the ditch."

Dismounting a wheel usually requires tools for most people, but Boss Yan just used his hands, simple enough, just a few screws.

Seeing his wife a bit worried, Yan Fei added, "Don’t worry, there won’t be any trouble. They don’t have wheels anymore, they can’t drive, no accidents will happen."

In his own yard, he was the boss and had to maintain a certain image. But with his wife, he could be more capricious. And truth be told, committing a misdeed occasionally does lift one’s spirits.

The girl gave him a sideways glance, "You and your naughty ideas... huh!"

Humming under her breath, her small hands went back to squeezing his shoulders gently.

Yan Fei hummed too, out of comfort, "A man’s not bad, a woman won’t love..."

"Hmph..."

The bumpy ride caused the girl to struggle to keep awake by the late night. Just when s...
