TRANSMIGRATING TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOM TO FIVE BIGWIGS

Chapter 251-260

Chapter 251: Xiao Wu’s Secret

Mu Jingzhe took a look, and her face was filled with suspicion. He had brought the wrong book, hadn’t he?

Shao Qihai handed the book to Mu Jingzhe. Mu Jingzhe glanced at the cover and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw the words ‘Principles Behind the Engine’ on it. “You brought the wrong one. I want to take the test for a driver’s license, not qualify as a car repair technician. Why are you giving me this? Or do you guys need to learn this in the army when you take the test?”

Shao Qihai didn’t take the book back. Instead, he placed it in her hand. “I didn’t bring the wrong book. We’re not the only ones who need to learn this. You need to as well.”

“I just want to get a driver’s license and I need to learn this too?” Mu Jingzhe looked at the thick book in her hand with a suspicious expression.

.

“Mm, you do. No matter where you ask, unless something goes wrong, you’ll have to learn this first. You can read it.”

Mu Jingzhe felt its weight and forced a smile. “You’re pranking me, right?”

“No, I’m really not lying to you. To get a driver’s license, you have to learn about these skills first. Only after learning this can you continue learning how to drive.”

Mu Jingzhe was stunned. “No way!”

“Way.” Shao Qihai nodded. “I asked about this when I hired a driver previously. That’s how it goes. You can start learning for now.”

Mu Jingzhe opened the book and took a few glances before closing it again. “I think it might not be necessary. I’ll ask around tomorrow.”

Shao Qihai wanted to say something but shut his mouth again.

In the end, the result of Mu Jingzhe’s inquiry the next day was exactly what Shao Qihai had said. She had to study that thick book before she could learn the stuff modern-day drivers learned when getting their license. Besides, there were many restrictive conditions.

In modern times, it was always said that it was getting harder and harder to get a driver’s license. However, now that she was studying a book, Mu Jingzhe realized that getting a driver’s license in modern times was much more blissful. At least, it was way more blissful than in this era. This was the true definition of difficult.

In the modern era, one could apply for a driver’s license by learning some theoretical knowledge and taking a test. However, it was even harder now. Firstly, it was difficult to register. Many people had to apply under their companies’ names. Secondly, the lesson fees were expensive. Mu Jingzhe casually asked about it and found out that the lesson fees for driving a truck cost more than 1,000 yuan and very close to 2,000 yuan.

This sum was different from 2,000 yuan in the modern era. 2,000 yuan in that era was the equivalent of 20,000 yuan in modern times. Therefore, the amount of money required was really not a joke. How long would it take for a family to save up this much money? Furthermore, it would take a person a year to study.
