20 years of underworld

Soon after the Spring Festival, Zhao Hongbing arranged to change jobs. Grandpa Zhao’s family and Ergou’s family were all happy about it, but Zhao Xiaobo, the son of Ergou and Zhao Hongbing’s older brother, was not happy because he took Ergou with him all day. The uncle who shoots sparrows and snowmen with a slingshot is going to work, so he can only play with Ergou and Xiaobo on weekends. Zhao Hongbing's slingshot is extremely accurate, and when he hits sparrows with an earthen slingshot, one sparrow will fall to the ground after three shots. I used to play with slingshots when I was a child You should know that the success rate is quite high, because many sparrows may not land on the ground after being hit by a slingshot, and it is very possible to fly away after being hit. Ergou has been playing with slingshot for 9 years. I don’t know how much glass has been broken, but even a sparrow has never been shot down.

Zhao Hongbing was assigned to work in the city's bank, the office of the People's Bank. The so-called office is responsible for entertaining guests, helping the leaders arrange activities and so on. He is tall and well-dressed, and although he has been a soldier for several years, he still looks gentle and elegant, and he has never experienced a war-torn look on his body. The governor of the People's Bank of China immediately took a fancy to him and wanted to take this young man Putting it in the office will definitely improve the image of the bank!

But what happens next may not be expected by anyone.

The turbulence brought about by the social changes in 1984-1986 may not be weaker than the changes in Chinese society during the reform of state-owned enterprises in the 90s. After decades of public ownership reform, the society is reforming in the direction of privatization. The giant ship of China After more than [-] years of sailing at sea, he turned around and sailed in another direction. While the whole of China became full of vitality, many corruptions also emerged.

The incident that happened is definitely not considered corruption now. If someone goes to the Disciplinary Inspection Commission or the Anti-Corruption Bureau to sue someone for being corrupt because of this incident, they will definitely be accused by the Disciplinary Inspection Commission or the Anti-Corruption Bureau. people are sick.

In 1986, there was such a sick person in our city, and this sick person was Zhao Hongbing.

The office where Zhao Hongbing works often needs to entertain guests from other banks, provincial banks and so on. After a few days, Zhao Hongbing has been very disrespectful. These people came here to inspect the work, but in fact they came here to eat and drink. Roasted chicken and other people don’t want to move at all, they only like to eat what was popular at the time, such as "sweet pork tenderloin", "sweet and sour fish", etc., and only drink Moutai and Wuliangye. I don’t go to work, and I sleep directly in the guest house of the bank. But at night, I eat and drink vigorously. A table of more than 10 dishes is basically untouched, and 90% of them are waste products.

Then this patient named Zhao Hongbing couldn't take it anymore, he felt distressed. He felt sorry for the country's food and meat.

The patient began to think: I have only been a soldier for a few years. When I left, many people didn’t even have food. When did our country get so rich in just a few years? Did you dump the whole plate of meat? Dozens of people are needed to accompany the leader? This patient who was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze may not have thought that the country has become a little richer than before in the past few years when he served in the army, but not too rich. The phenomenon seen is not because of wealth, but because of corruption.

At noon on the 12th day when Zhao Hongbing went to work, the leaders of the province came down for a meeting. The meeting lasted for half an hour and then he ate and drank for 3 hours. He didn’t return to the office until 3:[-] pm. His name is Li Shusen. He is also his immediate superior, and he was even more drunk when he returned to the office. Since Zhao Hongbing is also a staff member in the office, he also went to drink with him, but he didn't drink too much. Of course, according to Zhao Hongbing, he didn't drink too much. , according to Ergou’s understanding of him, Ergou thinks that he must have drunk too much that day, because it is just right for him not to drink, and he drinks too much. For more than [-] years without exception, no one knows how much he drinks. Some people say It is eight taels, some say it is one catty, and others say it is two catties. Because he rarely drinks alcohol, but whenever he does drink, he only drinks white, at least one catty, and more than four catties. The only thing that remains the same is that he always drinks drink too much.

Ergou knows best that his drinking capacity is five qian, that is, half a liang, and it must be said to be a low-alcohol alcohol of 38 degrees.

Zhao Hongbing, a patient who claimed he didn't drink too much, staggered into the office. As soon as he entered the office, he saw Director Li in the office making a call with a "hands-on" phone: At that time, there were no program-controlled phones in our country, at least in our city. No. All the calls are "round-the-clock calls". First answer the call room of the Post Office, and then tell her where to transfer, and then they will transfer to you. When Zhao Hongbing heard it, Director Li was talking to the operator about transferring to the city hotel. Zhao Hongbing thought: This is the right way I have to book a table again after I come back from eating? Is it going to be corrupt again at night? Is it going to waste the money and food of the country again?

He grabbed Director Li's hand with some alcohol and hung up the phone.

Director Li smiled and breathed out the alcohol and said, "Xiao Zhao, don't make trouble, Uncle Li is doing business, and he is booking a table for the leader tonight."

Zhao Hongbing said: "I didn't make trouble with you, why, do you want to eat again at night?"

Director Li said: "Yes, what's the matter? What if you don't eat?"

Zhao Hongbing said: "Are you ruining the country's money like this?"

Director Li finally heard from his tone that he was not joking with him, and said, "Xiao Zhao, didn't you drink at noon today? Didn't you waste the country's money?"

Zhao Hongbing was a little speechless for a while, and said: "I went at noon, but I won't go next time".

"Whether you want to go or not, don't block my phone call." Director Li pushed Zhao Hongbing's hand away, finally getting impatient.

Zhao Hongbing, whose hands were pushed away, became angry and yelled in his Zhao family's unique Zhao family's loud voice: "You moths, you maggots" (please note, he shouted "You guys Maggot", not "You maggot", he scolded the president together) "Fuck you, what are you, who are you talking about?" Director Li is not a good person either.

"We shed blood on the front line of Laoshan just to protect you maggots!!!!!?????!!!"

"You stinky soldier, don't think you can teach me a lesson after being a soldier for a few days, who the hell will use you for protection"

"Don't insult the soldiers!!!!!"

"You are disabled because you rely on your father..."

Director Li couldn't finish this sentence, and it was also the last half of Director Li's words in the next half month. After that, the whole floor heard a loud noise like a landslide, and then heard "crash" One sound.

In the hospital, the doctor asked the colleagues of the bank: "What heavy object hit his chest, so many ribs were broken?"

"Beating"

"How many people were beaten, and it became like this"

"Shooting alone"

"What did you use to fight?"

"kicked"

"How many feet did you kick?"

"one foot"

"Kicked by who?"

"....."

It is said that the doctor was stunned after hearing this. This may be the worst kick he received among the patients he had received. In the end, when the police came to question him, he firmly believed that it was not done by one person. I don't believe it was just a kick. The doctor may not know that in this kick: there is Zhao Hongbing's surprise and anger at the current social situation, there is Zhao Hongbing's venting of his inferiority caused by the severed finger, and there is Zhao Hongbing's resentment at those shameless faces, There is also his panic about the huge gap in reality.

12 years later, the maggot that Zhao Hongbing spoke of was finally confirmed to be a maggot. That year Ergou was in his third year of high school and saw a public trial meeting after school. There was a list next to it. The fifth line reads: Li Shusen, the former vice president of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, served as During the period of the vice president of the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, he embezzled xxx million yuan of public funds for gambling, and now he is sentenced to 11 years in prison at the first instance.

After Ergou returned home, he happily told Zhao Hongbing. Unexpectedly, Zhao Hongbing, who was already the big brother of the underworld at the time, didn't react when he heard it, but said lightly: "Ergou, he is just a maggot. Remember, what I said that day is "You bunch of maggots".

Yes, one maggot can be Fa-rectified, but can so many maggots in China be completely Fa-rectified?And who can complete the Fa-rectification?Ergou did not know until that day that Zhao Hongbing was not alone in kicking that day

In the following 14 years, I don’t know why. Zhao Hongbing never mentioned on any occasion that he was a soldier, at least Ergou never heard of it. Zhao Hongbing also avoided talking about the matter and never participated in the discussion

It was not until the summer of 1999 that Ergou, who was already studying abroad, came home and heard a high school classmate who was admitted to a certain university in the city tell a joke he thought. Although more than 8 years had passed, Ergou did not say a word to him Dare to forget, the following is basically the original transcript: "Ergou, did you go to the parade when the embassy was bombed?"

"Swimming, my voice is hoarse"

"We also swam, but it was very funny"

"The bombing of the embassy is not a good thing, what's so funny?"

"On the day of the parade, there were basically students from several colleges and technical secondary schools in this city, but did you know that the slogan was the loudest at the front of the parade that day. Others only paraded for half a day, and who paraded for a whole day?"

"Who?"

"Red Soldier, haha, do you know? Brother Hong Soldier! He is at the front, with Fei Si and other big gangsters behind him, and he is holding a banner. He is really happy, walking from the south of the city to the north of the city, and from the north to the north of the city." Hexi, and then walked to the cotton mill. Along the way, those little hooligans saw the Red Soldiers marching, and all the tmd joined them. From morning to night, more than 200 hooligans gathered in front of and behind them, those with yellow hair, There are tattoos, shirtless and slippers. By noon, we students can't do it anymore. When we walk near the school, everyone dispersed and rushed to the cafeteria. The red soldiers led the group of hooligans to fight. Qiang, walked for a long time without taking a sip of water. The Red Soldier also told the students that he was a soldier, Fei Si was a soldier, and Xiao Ji was also a soldier. They have all fought wars, and now the country is in trouble. , They still go to serve as soldiers, they are not afraid of death.. It's too fucking funny, they old hooligans who are running for 40, they still want to be soldiers? The classmates all said: Now I know that the underworld is also patriotic, Ergou, what kind of fools do you think they are, and they usually do less crimes and cut them off. Both of them have everything.”

"You fucking talk so fucking, don't know what's going on, don't jb nonsense"

"Ergou, what's wrong with you, how are you talking?"

"roll!"

"..."

It seems that Zhao Hongbing still hasn't forgotten that he used to be a "stinky soldier".
