Chapter 2 Charcoal Cars

"Why did you come back?" The driver of the repairman complained, but there was no anger on his face.

"Hey, it's strange. Usually, many people store wood and carbon in their homes. I asked five of them in a row, but I couldn't find a piece of carbon. So I had to find some firewood to burn it." When I came back, the driver threw a bundle of crooked tree sticks next to the truck.

"Okay, let's get up first, and add charcoal when you go back." The driver of the repair car closed the hood and put the tools in his hand into the cockpit. Then the two of them worked together to carry the bundle of firewood into the truck's cargo box. The driver who came back with the firewood came to the cargo box and worked hard again. The repair car driver sat in the cab to light the fire and start the car.

A smoke came out of the rear car, and it smelled like the burning wood. The smoke became thicker and thicker, and the car started with a "whimper" sound! Hu Fei felt that his mind was a little too weak. Isn't the car burning gasoline? Some horsepower is made of diesel, but when did there be a firewood burning car? If you say that this car is not fueled by firewood, how should we explain everything he saw just now?

"Hey, brother, I'm from another place, I want to ask you something. What are the firewood you just brought for?"

"Wood?" The driver in the rear car didn't react at all. After he saw the half-tree stick in his hand, he realized what the firewood was talking about. "You said this, this is fuel. Oh, you came from another place, and you may not know this. Our car burns charcoal, it does not burn gasoline!"

Car burning charcoal! Although Hu Fei had already thought of this fresh term, he still surprised him when he spoke it from the driver.

"I forgot to bring more when I went out today. When I got here, the charcoal was used up. I couldn't buy carbon, so I had to temporarily replace it with dry branches." The man in the car said a few words to Hu Fei, and the smoke became even thicker. This time Hu Fei realized that the one in the carriage was not a bomb, but a boiler! He used charcoal to burn the boiler and generate heat to drive the car. The principle should be similar to that of the steam train, right?

"Look goodbye!" Although Hu Fei did not help, the two drivers on the truck still waved goodbye to him.

"Goodbye!" Hu Fei waved his hand, watching the magical charcoal car drive faster and faster, gradually disappearing from his sight until he can no longer see.

"Did Brother Fei fall in love with this charcoal car?" Zhang Yayi's voice came from the car. As soon as the car door opened, Zhang Yayi's delicate pink face was revealed. "The car doesn't seem to look good, and there is still a lot of smoke when driving. It seems that the failure rate will not be low." Zhang Yayi instinctively disliked this kind of black smoke-emitting car. Her emotions were also revealed in her words.

"Yayi's words make sense, but I still want it. Who made our country have no gasoline?" After a few words, Hu Fei couldn't help but sighed.

After the Industrial Revolution, the rapid development of mechanization in various countries, and fuel has become an important element that can determine a country's economic lifeline. Although China's industrialization started late, its own country's lack of oil fields still became the biggest obstacle to national development. Now, the fuel burned by every motor vehicle running on the street depends on imports. Not only is the price expensive, but the quantity and quality are also limited.

This feeling of being restrained everywhere is really uncomfortable! Hu Fei has seized many cars and motorcycles since he participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan, but his 88th Column has not yet had a real mechanized force. The reason is that the lack of gasoline is one of the most important factors. Therefore, when he saw a car that did not burn fuel, the surprise in his heart was conceivable!

No matter how much money or what method is used, we have to build a charcoal car unit! Hu Fei secretly set the next goal for himself. Of course, Hu Fei's main task at the moment is to find Pingle Village and ask Guo to rectify his bones to cure Zhang Yayi's ankle. Only by solving this problem first can there be room for discussion on other matters.

The distance is not too far for ten miles. Even if you pass through the city in Luoyang, the total distance is not more than twenty miles. More than three hours later, the carriage arrived outside the door of Guo's bone clinic.

This family is worthy of being a famous family of doctors. These two courtyard gates alone are two sizes larger than ordinary families. There are two long queues at the gate of Guo’s bone correction, some sitting on stretchers and some hanging their arms. It is obvious that they are patients coming to seek medical treatment. This business is really prosperous!

Mulati wanted to go forward and let Hu Fei stop him. We are here to ask someone to see a doctor. There is no need to be too arrogant. If it causes the Guo family’s bone correction person to be dissatisfied, it will be counterproductive. Isn’t it just a queue? If others can queule, we can!

Anyway, Hu Fei brought a lot of people, so he and Zhang Yayi were waiting in the cart, while Mulati took two investigators to line up in turn.

The people in the Guo family are not slow to see a patient. Hu Fei originally thought that it would take him to see a patient in orthopedics, but he didn't know that the team he was in moved forward every once in a while, and it had moved forward almost ten meters in an hour! At this speed, his own people could still be in front of him before dark! The speed of Guo's bone correction diagnosis made Hu Fei's confidence greatly!

Time flies so slowly! As the sun sets westward, supper time is coming in a while. I don’t know if there are any restaurants nearby. Hu Fei called a detective and gave him a few pieces of ocean to find a way to prepare supper for everyone.

There were three people in front of him, and Hu Fei probably could finish watching it if he couldn't buy dinner. After dinner, he was just in time to find a place to stay. Even if he went to the villager's house and gave him a few dollars to buy two houses, it would not be difficult.

Hu Fei was thinking about how to spend the night tonight, but a sudden chaos arose behind him! He turned around and looked back and saw a group of soldiers running over with several stretchers, "Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way! Our brothers were injured on the battlefield, come to see Dr. Guo heal, and you can give in later!"

Hu Fei was angry when he saw this group of soldiers. It would be fine if he had one or two of them. He just counted it. There were five stretchers carried by the soldiers. In other words, the people in front of Hu Fei suddenly changed from three to eight! He didn't know when Dr. Guo got off work. If it was before 8 o'clock in the evening, wouldn't he have to wait until tomorrow?
