Back to 49 days before death

Linshi is a small tourist city, famous for its ancient streets and squares. Of course, the most attractive thing is the lush bamboo sea on the outskirts of the city.It is evergreen and evergreen, and the bamboo waves are thousands of miles away. It is full of vitality in winter and shaded by trees in midsummer. No matter which season you go, you can reap a unique beauty, which makes people linger and forget to return.

The location of "Ruili New Village" is also outside this bamboo sea.

In the early years, in order to protect the ecological environment here, the local government has been prohibiting excessive tourism development, so before Zheng's project, although the scenery here is beautiful, a large number of tourists are shy because of the too simple accommodation environment.

There is no plane in Lin City, and the fastest is only the highway. After a four-hour drive and a small road in the county town, it was almost early morning when Zheng Ze and his group arrived at their destination.

The person who came to receive him was the leader of the county, surnamed Lin, who was the director of the planning bureau of the county party committee.Minister Lin had been waiting at the entrance of the village a long time ago, and when he saw them, they were just like the anti-Japanese people seeing the Red Army, and they were only ten miles away from welcoming them.

Zheng Ze didn't have time to waste time with them, so he asked them thoroughly when he came up.Fortunately, the leader is a person who does things, and he doesn't talk too much, so he explained the matter clearly in a few words.

To put it bluntly, when they arrived, the opposing sides had just fought for a round, and although a few were injured, they were fine.It's just that the already tense atmosphere became even more tense after this commotion. There were only a few people watching the night before, but tonight there was a row of people holding hoes.

Zheng Ze followed Director Lin's guidance and took a look at the blocked intersection. He was already sleepy in the middle of the night, and those individuals were still making a pile, some playing cards, some chatting, blocking the intersection with their shirts off, so lively .

Zheng Ze frowned when he saw the scene. A layman may not know it, but a businessman knows it very well. It is obvious that someone organized and ganged up to commit crimes.Just like the group of migrant workers who asked for their salaries at the end of the year, one took the lead and the others followed suit, regardless of whether they wanted money or not, at least things would cause trouble.Thinking of this, Zheng Ze frowned even tighter.

Back at the small hotel where he was staying, he unceremoniously taunted Mr. Lin, "You are all good enough. You have made such a big fuss and you still lie to others. If it weren't for the employees of Zheng's, this matter would be all right." I'm afraid you won't notify me if you understand?"

Director Lin was just the director of the Planning Bureau at the scene, and he still said things in a palm-sized area, but he could only bow his head and praise when he met a local leading company like Zheng's, not to mention Zheng's relationship with the Qi family.Anyone who still wants to make a difference in his official career dare not offend Zheng Ze, especially if this matter is still the fault of the government.

Director Lin is of course one of them. Although he was already anxious like an ant on a hot pot, he could only restrain his temper and explain: "Mr. , I reported the incident to the city in the afternoon of the day, but... Mr. Zheng, you also know that the city is not peaceful now, so I just sent me to come and watch it now. After two days, the boss will sort it out. Naturally Someone will fix it.”

When Zheng Ze heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.He said why the road was so quiet when he came here. Didn't everyone have already "raised the pole and rebelled"? Why was there only a small group of armed guards, not even special police, just a wave of special service who fell from nowhere.It turned out that the gods fought and the mortals suffered, and the higher-ups broke out.

It's also because Zheng signed the contract at the wrong time. At that time, they signed it with the current government for the sake of the current government's achievements.Unexpectedly, in the middle of the project, a paratrooper suddenly parachuted from above.Zheng Ze had long heard that someone was going to be transferred, but he didn't expect the timing to be so coincidental that it happened at the time of the accident.

It would be fine if the time was changed. With the network of Zheng's organization over the years, it can be resolved peacefully.But at this time, in order to protect the reputation of the previous government, and the paratroopers in the air to fight for political achievements, it is impossible for the two sides to make concessions and compromise easily.

This will be a pain for them, Mrs. Zheng...

Zheng Ze didn't expect that after so many years in the shopping mall, he would be played by the rich and powerful one day.Sure enough, there are heaven and man outside the sky, and there are people outside the sky, and Feng Shui also takes turns, and it will be misunderstood if you are not careful.

But things have come to this point, and it's useless to complain about yourself.Instead of waiting for the people above to finish the fight before coming down to end the fight, it is better to find a way to solve it yourself.It's just that this is Linshi after all, not his own territory, so he is really restrained in doing things.

In the end, Zheng Ze had no choice but to let everyone go to rest first, and then try to negotiate with the villagers tomorrow to see if they can release Zheng's people first.After all, this matter is really going to make a big fuss, and it can be regarded as illegal detention. If he is determined to reveal it, then no one will feel better about it.

Director Lin is a practical man, but he has no guts. After hearing Zheng Ze's words, he said yes again and again, and hurriedly arranged for someone to solve the accommodation problem, and then greeted him with a banquet. .

After sitting in the car for several hours, Mrs. Zheng was already hungry. If she hadn't been in a hurry to go to the scene, she might have found a place to rest.So as soon as Zheng Zegang said something, the people in the project team went straight to the dinner table like a wolf seeing a rabbit.

Zheng Ze was really irritable and had no appetite, so he left the table after two sips of soup, and walked along the bamboo seaside by himself.

The last time Zheng Ze came here was early spring, the green bamboo shoots had just sprouted, and the bamboo sea was also a scene full of vitality.

It's just that it's been less than half a year, but time has passed and things have changed.

The person who accompanied him last time is now a stranger, and he himself has become an "old man".The beautiful scenery in front of you is really one less if you look at it more, and one less if you skip a minute in time.

Now that he was reborn, Zheng Ze felt a pity for the first time.It's a pity that the great rivers and mountains of the motherland have not been finished, it is a pity that the ends of the earth have not been visited, it is a pity that many things that he wants to do have not been done, it is a pity that he no longer has time...

Zheng Ze sat down on a field ridge, staring at the vast galaxy and the breeze and bamboo sea, staring blankly.

He originally wanted to be alone and think about what to do after thinking about it, but God failed to fulfill his wishes, and he disappeared for a while, and someone was already looking for him.

The intentionally light footsteps were barely audible under the cover of cicadas, but Zheng Ze found the trail of the visitor immediately without any reason.But he didn't look back, he just stared blankly into the distance until the person behind him gradually approached.

Zheng Ze had nowhere to hide, so he sighed and asked, "Do you want to sit down?"

He didn't hear an answer for a long time, and when Zheng Ze thought the other party was about to refuse, a pair of long legs appeared in sight.Yu Yixin didn't care how much mud there was on the ridge, as soon as he stretched his long legs, he sat directly beside Zheng Ze.

It's just that compared to the intimacy when they sat side by side and looked up at the starry sky when they came here last time, the distance between them is a bit farther this time.Most of the seats in the middle are empty, and I don't know if it's because of deliberately keeping a distance.

Yu Yixin thought that after what happened that day, the two of them would be extremely embarrassed when they saw each other again, even if they didn't cross eyebrows.But he didn't think about Zheng Ze, but it seemed like nothing happened, and he even put away the hypocritical smile before, like an old friend he hadn't seen for a long time, and said: "Why are you here?"

All the pre-prepared manuscripts were filled with water tickets, and all kinds of excuses lingered in his throat. Yu Yixin finally only replied: "You didn't eat dinner."

"..." Zheng Ze almost choked on his own saliva, he coughed lightly and explained: "After sitting in the car all afternoon, I really don't have any appetite, so I won't eat today."

"En." Yu Yixin nodded upon hearing the words, and after a response, there was another moment of silence.

"Let me tell you, Yu Yixin..." Zheng Ze couldn't help laughing seeing his cautious look, "Since when did we have nothing to say? It's not that enemies don't have to be so wary of me, right?"

Yu Yixin turned his head and looked over with scorching eyes that he didn't know: "I didn't mean that."

"Then what do you mean?" Zheng Ze was about to tease a few words, and turned his head to meet Yu Yixin's eyes for an instant.There was a cool breeze blowing on the ridges and fields, and the dim lights came from a distance, casting light on Yu Yixin's dark eyes.His face was so blurry, but Zheng Ze understood the emotion in his eyes.

Coughing uncomfortably, Zheng Ze concealed his momentary astonishment and said, "Forget it, it's meaningless to say that. By the way, I'm sorry about what happened that day. That day... I was in a bad mood. I just wanted to find someone to drink, and I happened to meet you. So... well, anyway, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I also apologize to you on behalf of the lunatic, he has a bad temper, and he doesn't know how to do things. He hurt you, so you should bear more. "

Zheng Ze only found out later that the two had a fight. He was so drunk that day, but he still had some fragments of memory, which he immediately recalled when someone reminded him.He didn't know why two people who had never met before would fight at the first meeting, but he couldn't get away with it anyway.

This incident was a disaster for Yu Yixin. He was going home from get off work to rest, or he was planning to take away Zheng's equity, but he didn't expect to be dragged to the bar by him inexplicably, and he was beaten for no reason.And with Yu Yixin, he still understands, with that person's forbearance, he will never fight at the slightest disagreement, and if there is anything, it must be provoked by Qi Shaofeng.

Although Zheng Ze got mixed up emotionally, right and wrong are still clear in this matter.

He apologized on behalf of Qi Shaofeng because he really felt that his brother might have done something wrong, but when he heard Yu Yixin's words, it was surprisingly ironic.

Another apology, another sorry.Yu Yixin really wanted to ask Zheng Ze why he had to keep the distance between the two of them in such a distant tone over and over again.However, when he realized the relationship between the two, he lowered his head again.

Indeed, they are not enemies, but they have lost the right to know each other.Zheng Ze's apology was just to remind him that they were already the most familiar strangers, that's all.

Yu Yixin was a little irritable for a while, he didn't know why he had to follow, and he didn't know why this conversation was necessary.

Just when he wanted to leave, Zheng Ze stood up first.
