    "Yes, so, we have to prepare ourselves. Otherwise, when the time comes, the car he promised has not arrived, so what should we do? It doesn't mean that the matter will not be done because of this, right?"

    Although my cousin spoke peacefully, I was nervous!  "That's okay! I'm optimistic about the time, if I can't have a funeral at that time, wouldn't it be a big joke! No, absolutely not!" I shook my head again and again, and after resolutely rejecting the passive waiting plan, I  Some asked for help, "Brother, but if we don't change the door, how should we prepare?"

    The cousin looked confident.  "It's simple, I'll contact the driver of the floor truck right away. At that time, as long as the floor truck is hoisted on the crane, the problem will be solved!"

    I have heard this method mentioned by my father a long time ago, so it is not that I have not considered it, but the height of the crane arm is simply impossible to reach through the low gate of our house.  "But, brother, the door of our house is probably a little short. If we don't change the door, can the crane still be used?" I asked very puzzled.

    "It's not easy, just tear down the door to a high enough height!" said my cousin disapprovingly.

    "Brother, but, didn't you just say you won't change the door?" I was even more puzzled.

    "Who said that the door must be replaced after it is dismantled? We can completely push the replaced door back on after we get the coffin out."

    After listening to my cousin's explanation, my eyes suddenly brightened.  That's right, who said that after it is removed, it must be replaced with a new one?  Suddenly enlightened, I quickly asked my cousin to contact the acquaintance who drove the floor truck.  Things went well, and it was easy to get in touch. They offered 300 yuan, which I think is much cheaper than changing the aluminum alloy gate, so I made a preliminary decision on this matter with them without hesitation.

    It is estimated that my cousin may not know that the coffin cannot be "dragged". Fortunately, my father told me before his death that it is not impossible to use a crane, but we must be careful not to let the crane "pull" the coffin out.  The function of the crane is only to suspend and reduce force, but the coffin must be "lifted" or "moved" out under the action of manpower.  Of course, due to the existence of the crane, the "lifting" and "moving" here are actually just for show, and the main function is to give the coffin a forward momentum.  In this way, the coffin was not "dragged" or "pulled" out by the boom of the crane, but was "lifted" or "moved" by the crowd.

    Although I did not mention to my cousin that the coffin cannot be "dragged", I have secretly decided that when the floor truck really arrives, I will definitely emphasize this precaution to the driver and those who help carry the coffin.  Now that I had known this particular custom from my father, it was natural for me to follow it strictly.

    Most of the time, most people's understanding of XX may be biased, and it is also possible that no matter how unreliable people are, they will eventually be reliable.  Just when we had already made two-handed preparations and didn't have much hope for the captain, the enthusiastic captain came again.

    The captain specially sent the trailer he had driven out overnight.  I took a closer look at the structure of the simple cart.  Its main structure is two thigh-thick steel pipes arranged in parallel, and several thinner steel pipes are welded in parallel between the two thick steel pipes.  Under the two thick steel pipes, there are three pairs of wheels at equal distances.  You can tell at a glance that these three pairs of wheels were carefully selected by the captain.  Because, the size of these wheels is just right, just enough to pass through the threshold of our door.  In this way, the trolley will not appear too high, which will not cause inconvenience to loading and unloading the huge wooden coffin, and at the same time can easily pass through the gate threshold.

    After delivering the trolley, the team leader made gestures with the trolley to the wooden coffin on the side of the drying yard.  After feeling that the size was right, the captain tried to push the cart over the threshold again.  I know, this is the captain testing the fruits of his labor!  Once there is something wrong with it, the team leader will immediately take the cart back for modification.

    The team leader solemnly handed over the cart to me after he felt that there were no defects.  I know that the reason why the captain is so cautious is entirely to avoid any accidents during his father's funeral.  I was doubly moved by the captain's sincere help.

    "I heard that you have decided to use a floor truck?"

    The captain's question made me ashamed.  He really wanted to help us, but in the end I had doubts about my cousin because of his words.  The reason why I had such an idea at the time was, on the one hand, to be safe. After all, my father¡¯s funeral is the top priority, and I don¡¯t want even a little mistake;  I'm not familiar with it, and my cousin is the person I trust the most, so at the reminder of my cousinUnder the circumstances, I had to make two-handed preparations.  But it turns out that my doubts about the captain were completely unnecessary.  Whatever the reason, I didn't want the captain to know that I had mistrusted him.  Therefore, after I hesitated for a while, I replied with some embarrassment: "Brother, you also know that my dad's coffin is very big. It is almost impossible for those elderly people to carry such a huge coffin to the field."  It is impossible. That¡¯s why we contacted the floor truck, so that those who help carry the coffin only need to get the coffin out (the floor truck will automatically lift the wooden coffin onto the car, and then drive to  field, and finally hang the wooden coffin into the pre-dug mud pit).¡±

    "Oh," the captain pretended to understand, hesitated for a moment, but continued, "You must emphasize to them that they don't need to hang the coffin out of the house, so at least three hundred yuan can be saved.  "

    Hearing this, my face turned red immediately.  It seems that paper cannot contain fire after all.  The acquaintances my cousin contacted, the captain naturally knew them too.  Although my cousin and I will not spread the word everywhere, but as the owners of floor trucks who have taken over a "big" business, will we keep our mouths shut?  It seemed that the captain had already known the truth from the owner of the floor truck.  However, in order not to embarrass me, the captain pretended not to know.

    "Thank you very much, I understand, brother." After calming down, I said more respectfully.  My gratitude is entirely from the heart.

    "We are all in the same team. As the saying goes, 'a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor', I treat you as my own family. Therefore, I declare in advance that when the car is ready, don't talk about money with me.  otherwise, don't blame me for getting angry!"

    Although the captain said very seriously, so serious that it cannot be discussed.  However, I can feel the sincerity behind his seriousness.  The captain is absolutely helping us without asking for anything in return.  I feel my eye sockets are a little wet, because I am really touched.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
