Chapter Thirteen: The Gathering of Companions

A magical plaster made the three Guo brothers who were far away in Hong Kong City have different thoughts.

Although Boss Guo was not very wary of the third brother, he suddenly gained the favor of the old man this time, which made him immediately realize the crisis.

The third brother invested in the mainland in Pengcheng area. The first idea of ​​Guo’s boss was to send someone to Pengcheng to find it. He wanted to find the source of the plaster. Whether it was to please the old man or other purposes, he would not allow the other two brothers to have other opportunities.

Seeing that the old man's health is getting worse day by day, his identity as a successor must not be at all setbacks.

Boss Guo sent someone to Pengcheng to inquire about the news that day. Almost at the same time, Guo Lao Er's people also started to set off, even faster than Boss Guo, because he had contacted friends in Pengcheng and started to inquire.

The two brothers can fight for so many years, so naturally they are perfect and almost have the same thoughts. As a disadvantaged side, Guo Laoer is even more eager to find something that will please the old man.

However, Guo Laosan, who really brought the plaster, did not notice the actions of the two brothers at all. Perhaps he knew it, but he would not care.

At the old man's birthday party, Guo Laosan supported Guo Laosan and appeared in front of the guests. The old man's eyes when he looked at Guo Laosan were full of kindness, which made Guo Laosan appear in the limelight. This scene surprised many people.

In the past, Guo Laosan was almost certain that he was the abandoned son of the Guo family, but this suddenly eased the relationship with the old man, which caused many people and families closely related to the Guo family to immediately start to discuss.

The wealthy family is as deep as the sea. As the Supreme Emperor, the old man still controls more than 50% of the group's shares. This is a huge wealth, which is enough to make brothers turn against each other and kill each other.

But what does this have to do with Liu Feng?

He is still following his plan, and now he generates more than 20,000 yuan in monthly profits. This money will be enough to live the life he wants in 1982.

The new factory and warehouse are under construction. He now visits occasionally every day, then strolls at the pharmacy, and finally goes home to cook and serve He Xiaoping. The couple lives a very warm life.

This world is the most carefree world he lives. There are no out of reach dreams, no need to worry about the oil, salt, firewood and rice in life, nor do you need to worry about your parents. You only need to live a few small bites of your own life, and you live a comfortable and comfortable life.

He just received a notice from Mao Chengcheng that day, saying that he had received an invitation letter for a comrade-in-arms gathering. Mao Chengcheng wanted Liu Feng to attend with him. Liu Feng originally wanted to refuse such a regional comrade-in-arms gathering. He was not from Guangdong Province, so he naturally didn't want to force himself to join in the fun.

However, Mao Chengcheng said that many comrades who worked in Guangdong Province would go there, and they did not have to be from Guangdong Province. The main gatherings were all comrades who participated in the Battle of Southern Monkey. I heard that this gathering was organized by several comrades who had a lot of energy in the army back then. They are now assigned to work in Guangdong Province, and they just want to take this opportunity to get together.

From 1979 to 1982, many people have been assigned to work in local areas, many of them have been assigned to work in government agencies, and many families have backgrounds. Now, after they arrive at the government agencies, they have a lot of energy. Mao Chengcheng means that Liu Feng will develop in Guangdong Province in the future. Now, we will first establish a good relationship with these comrades, which will save a lot of trouble.

When Liu Feng heard this, he thought it was quite reasonable. The comrades in this era are considered a very special emotion. The kind of emotion that has experienced life and death together is still somewhat different than ordinary friends after all. Many people will be in touch for the rest of their lives.

However, any relationship cannot withstand time and reality in the end. As the gap between their respective identities gradually widens, the contact will become less and less in the future. Some people with certain social status will gradually have their own high-end circles, while some people who are not satisfied will eventually become passers-by.

The uncle in reality is probably the kind of person who is not doing well. When he was young, he also attended several comrade-in-arms gatherings and took a lot of photos. Like Liu Feng in the movie, he went to the grave of the martyrs alone to toast and recall the past. However, as time went by, the comrades he contacted eventually gradually lost contact. This is reality.

Liu Feng did not take He Xiaoping there. He was mainly pregnant. He was afraid of getting angry. The two rode their bicycles for more than two hours and stopped in front of a hotel in the city center. At this moment, the hotel was full of bicycles and jeeps. When the two saw this posture, there should be many people coming today. There are so many jeeps, which shows that some people are at this party. This is in 1982.

As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw a jeep parked at the door not far away. Two men in military uniforms got out of the car. They were about to enter the hotel and happened to meet Mao Chengcheng and Liu Feng. Liu Feng was not wearing military uniforms. Mao Chengcheng was so angry that he saw Mao Chengcheng's military uniforms. The two walked towards them with a smile.

Liu Feng didn't know the two, but those who could come here to attend the party today should be comrades-in-arms. The two saluted a military salute, and Liu Feng and Mao Chengcheng also returned. The other party reported their own family, and they were indeed comrades-in-arms. The other party's identity was obviously higher than Liu Feng and many of them. One was once the chief of staff of the regiment, and the other was a higher status and a division-level cadre.

Liu Feng only reported his identity as the company commander of the transportation company and did not reveal the identity of the combat hero. Not to mention Mao Chengcheng, just an ordinary veteran, who had no idea of ​​several people, but now the identities between the two sides were obviously a bit big. The two smiled and greeted each other and went into the hotel one after another.

Mao Chengcheng and Liu Feng looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. This is reality.

The two of them also followed into the hotel. There was a registration office at the entrance of the hotel. Liu Feng did not have an invitation letter and had a comrade-in-arms proof of his identity, so he went in directly.

When they arrived at the hotel lobby, the two realized that there were indeed many people coming today. There were more than 30 tables in it. There were already fruit plates on the table, and there were already hundreds of people inside. It was very lively. Judging from the situation, it was very large today.

Most of the people inside were wearing military uniforms. Liu Feng was a little ahead of his own because he was not wearing military uniforms. Liu Feng wanted to wear them, but a few days ago, he found that a mouse had bitten a small hole on it and was on his chest. Instead of wearing tattered clothes, it was better to wear casual clothes.

However, there were also some people who were not wearing military uniforms, but most of those people were surrounded by a large group of people, talking to everyone with red faces, obviously their identities were not ordinary.

The arrival of Liu Feng and Mao Chengcheng did not cause any reaction. Liu Feng saw no less than a dozen disabled soldiers like Liu Feng at first glance.

Liu Feng did not see familiar faces in the crowd, which is normal. At first, Liu Feng was in the Art Troupe, later the logging company, and later the transportation company adapted, most of the soldiers were from other provinces, and most of them were from rural areas, and probably few could be assigned to big cities like Yangcheng.

As for the art troupe, most of the comrades have special identities. After the art troupe is disbanded, they are basically separated by one side. The female soldiers of the art troupe have basically one in a hundred figures and appearances. In addition, they are destined to marry a good family in the future. There are also many people like Lin Dingding who go abroad directly. The gap between people often occurs in society and will quickly react.

Liu Feng and Mao Chengcheng chose an empty table to sit down in a low-key manner. Liu Feng picked up an orange in the fruit plate, peeled it and ate it, and looked around casually.

Today's party seems to have been back in vain. If it is a small-scale party, everyone can still have the opportunity to talk, but there are so many people, they are likely to be background boards.

However, the atmosphere is still pretty good now. Everyone laughed and talked lively. Now everyone has only been discharged from the army for one or two years, and they still miss many things in the army. The ones everyone talked the most was the matter in the Southern Monkey War.

If Liu Feng stood up now and talked about his deeds, he would definitely be the focus of the audience, because he had seen several war heroes in military uniforms and medals on his chest, and those people were surrounded by a large group of people. When they listened to the past, their faces were filled with sighs and flushing.

Liu Feng was not very interested in those showing off. For the Southern Monkey War, for him, it was just an ordinary experience in his memory and nothing to show off.

Mao Chengcheng next to him knew Liu Feng's personality and did not persuade him much. As the crowd gradually increased, he also found a fellow villager. The two chatted happily and the atmosphere was very harmonious. Liu Feng only ate oranges quietly. In his opinion, this was pretty good.

This is the gathering of comrades who should have. Now what everyone talks about is mostly about the interesting things in the life of war and the troops, rather than in a few years when we meet again, we probably talk more about work and status. At that time, the gap in our identities made them gradually lose their common language.

Soon, Liu Feng's table was full. Everyone smiled and shook hands, and introduced to each other. Regarding Liu Feng's left hand's disability, everyone talked to Liu Feng in a regretful tone. Liu Feng chatted with everyone casually, but did not feel embarrassed.

Finally, a man in military uniform at the front table walked to the front desk, picked up the microphone prepared in the hotel, and then smiled and said, "Hey," and said, "Hey," he said, "After a clear sound from the microphone, he coughed twice and shouted to everyone."

"Hello comrades, welcome to this comrades-in-arms party. This time I first thank the organization and support of the "Xiao" comrades-in-arms for the organization and support of us, so that we can get together again. Yesterday, we were covered with honor. Today, we have a new identity and life will embark on a new journey... Looking back on the past, just like yesterday, vividly remembering..."

The speech of the comrade on the stage was full of enthusiasm. When it was moved, it attracted thunderous applause from everyone in the audience. Liu Feng had no choice but to applaud, but he just smiled and looked at the stage. Mao Chengcheng beside him was also full of excitement. When he remembered the past, he was still very moved now.

After the speech of the comrades on the stage, several comrades on the stage came on stage, including fighting heroes and extraordinary identities. The atmosphere in the hall was always high, and everyone's applause was thunderous. Obviously, the party was held very successfully.

Finally, after several comrades in military uniforms came to the stage together, everyone looked at each other. These people were the organizers of this comrades' gathering. Their former identities were all famous figures in the army. The other party first saluted everyone, and everyone also replied to a military salute in the audience.

One of them picked up the microphone and said in a heavy voice.

"Today, so many comrades-in-arms can gather together. I feel very pleased to see everyone not forgetting their original intentions. This means that our comrades-in-arms who have not forgotten yet, nor have we forgotten the years we have been together. This comrades-in-arms gathering is of great significance.

Today I want to tell you my thoughts. After I retired, I was assigned to the Personnel Bureau. Due to work needs, I have seen many comrades in the past two years. Many of them came to me due to various difficulties in life, but I was powerless, which made me feel very guilty.

I discussed with Lao Zhou that we should do something more meaningful, so we organized this comrade-in-arms party. Lao Zhou and I decided to propose an initiative to set up a military mutual assistance platform. I hope that capable comrades can help more comrades in family difficulties and need help.

If you have the will, you can contact us. In the future, I hope that such a comrade-in-arms can be held for a long time. I hope that our comrade-in-arms can continue. I suggest that we hold a comrade-in-arms party every three years in the future. What do you think?"

The speech on stage soon received responses from everyone in the audience. Obviously, everyone is quite interested in this mutual aid platform. After all, those who can attend this comrades party today have some good life, and basically have work units.

The reason why Mao Chengcheng was invited is because his identity has been shown to the boss as a plaster sticker this year.

This year, when I went out for business, I basically made a appearance in Mao Chengcheng. Although I only sold plasters and had a bad reputation, it was considered a success in my career.

In fact, as their identities, no matter what the people below are thinking, no matter what the people below are thinking, no one will refuse the proposal.

Soon, at this party, the topics discussed gradually became some suggestions and opinions on mutual assistance. Someone suggested that a donation could be organized and everyone should do their best. This proposal was supported by many people, saying a thousand words and ten thousand is still the money came true. With money, this mutual assistance platform can be better handled.

In order not to embarrass everyone, donations were not made public on the stage, but soon next to the venue, several tables and organizers took pens and notebooks to record for everyone, and everyone could register and donate directly.

As soon as the table was put on, in the crowd, a man in military uniform strode forward, walked to a table, took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket, and respectfully stepped forward and put the banknotes on the table.

In this scene, almost everyone in the hall looked at the man, and this man obviously had a good start.

However, when Mao Chengcheng and Liu Feng saw this man, their expressions changed, because they knew each other.

This person is Wang Linsheng.

Wang Linsheng's appearance here surprised both of them, and Mao Chengcheng even sat upright, obviously too surprised.

Because Wang Linsheng was discharged from the army in seven or eight years and had never participated in the war. Logically, it did not meet the requirements of this comrade-in-arms gathering. He did not expect how the other party would appear here?

However, this is obviously not the point. For people like Wang Linsheng, this comrade-in-arms gathering is undoubtedly a good social opportunity. There are many comrades with extraordinary identities here.

Looking at Wang Linsheng's actions, the two of them looked at each other and understood Wang Linsheng's ulterior motives. Obviously, the other party was very good at seizing the opportunity.

Mao Chengcheng finally couldn't help it and asked Liu Feng in a low voice.

"Company Commander, do we want to donate some too?"

Liu Feng looked at Wang Linsheng's kind and serious smile, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart. He smiled and then asked Mao Chengcheng.

"How much cash did you carry with you?"

Mao Chengcheng said embarrassedly.

"Not much, just a few dollars of change!"

Liu Feng was also quite speechless. Now Mao Chengcheng only distributes dividends, which is more than 1,000 yuan a month, but he is still so saver in life. However, Liu Feng didn't care, and then smiled and said.

"When you go over and donate 10,000 yuan, you will say that the money will be sent tomorrow. The money will be deducted from the general account. By the way, donate it in your name, don't mention my name!"

Mao Chengcheng also knew about Liu Feng’s low-key matter, but he was surprised at this moment that he had to donate so much.

When Mao Chengcheng heard about ten thousand yuan, he was in a bad mood and asked in surprise.

"Company Commander, do you have to donate so much?"

You know, this was 10,000 yuan in 1982. For ordinary workers, it was almost a total income of more than ten years. This donation amount would definitely surprise everyone.

Liu Feng said casually as if he didn't see Mao Chengcheng's surprised eyes.

"Didn't you say you want to make friends with comrades with status? Isn't this the best opportunity? You can wait and go there. Now, and donate so much, and everyone is a little embarrassed to donate."

Mao Chengcheng finally looked at Wang Linsheng not far away and returned to his seat in the eyes of everyone's praise. Wang Linsheng's humble look made Mao Chengcheng feel disgusted. He immediately made him feel at ease and nodded, as if he agreed to Liu Feng's arrangement.

Soon, under the leadership of Wang Linsheng, countless comrades stood up and went to donate. Everyone was in the same mood, some donated a few cents, and some donated dozens of dollars. In short, everyone was quite involved.

The organizers also registered their names to these donated comrades one by one. The two or three hundred comrades at the scene basically stood up, like Liu Feng and Mao Chengcheng, who were only eating fruits. Very few of them were also attracted a lot of strange gazes, and they also attracted the attention of Wang Linsheng outside the table.

Liu Feng saw Wang Linsheng's mockery from afar, and he was speechless. Why is this kid so narrow-minded?

Well, the donation activity that lasted for more than half an hour was basically coming to an end. Several organizers were cleaning up their money and discussing the direction of rescue with everyone.

When Liu Feng saw that it was almost done, he immediately said to Mao Chengcheng.

"Go, it's almost done!"

Mao Chengcheng nodded, took a deep breath, and walked towards the few people. Along the way, many people looked at him, and strange eyes were naturally indispensable. However, Mao Chengcheng walked calmly to the few people, lowered his head and said a few words in the ears.

As soon as they finished speaking, the organizers of several people showed shocked eyes, all of them looked at each other, stood up, stretched out their hands towards Mao Chengcheng, and the few people each held Mao Chengcheng, and they looked towards Liu Feng's position in the direction of Mao Chengcheng, and Liu Feng also smiled and said hello.

After Mao Chengcheng left the other party's name and contact information, he wanted to return to his seat again, but several people quickly grabbed Mao Chengcheng. Several people took Mao Chengcheng to the stage and then picked up the microphone. One person was a little excited at this moment, suppressed his emotions and said to everyone in the audience.

"I just learned a very exciting news. I would like to share with you that the comrade in front of me is Comrade Mao Chengcheng. He just donated 10,000 yuan to our mutual aid platform. Everyone applauded and expressed their gratitude to Comrade Mao Chengcheng!"

As soon as the words finished, the audience was silent, ten thousand yuan, and everyone was indeed shocked, but soon, with the applause of the leader, the applause like thunder, rising and falling.

The applause lasted for a minute and had not stopped. Mao Chengcheng off the stage only felt blushing and was so excited that he could not help himself. He suppressed the excitement in his heart, finally stood up, waved his hand to the audience, and signaled everyone to stop applause.

The applause stopped. Mao Chengcheng blushed, took the microphone, looked in the direction of Liu Feng. Seeing Liu Feng's encouraging eyes, he mustered up the courage and said to everyone in the audience.

"Thank you for your applause. I just did my best and it was not worth mentioning. I think this military mutual aid platform is very meaningful. I also hope that this money can help more comrades in family difficulties. Thank you!"

In just one short sentence, the sincerity in the words made the applause from the audience ring again!

Just as the thunderous applause was heard, a sharp sound suddenly sounded, and this sound made all the applause come to hoarsely.

"He is a liar! Don't believe him!"

This sentence almost exhausted Wang Linsheng's strength and completely suppressed all the applause. Everyone looked at Wang Linsheng's direction.

When Wang Linsheng saw everyone's eyes, he showed a slight pride, stood up and shouted to everyone.

"My comrades, this man is Mao Chengcheng. He is a villain who seeks fame. His family still lives in a broken house. His sister is sick and owes a lot of foreign debts. Last year, he worked as a temporary worker in our unit, and his monthly salary is 42.5 yuan. Later, he was fired by his unit. Why donate 10,000 yuan? Such a person is morally corrupt, seeks fame and reputation, and wants to destroy the friendship between our comrades, which is simply tragic!"

Wang Linsheng's words almost shocked everyone at the scene. The impulsive comrades had already stood up and glared at Mao Chengcheng on the stage. Mao Chengcheng on the stage was so angry that his eyes were red, so angry that they couldn't even say a word, and they were about to break out!

Liu Feng felt disgusted when he looked at Wang Linsheng's smug face, so he wanted to gain fame. This word is well used. This kind of villain is really sad!

Liu Feng, who had not originally wanted to show off, finally couldn't help it, stood up and scolded Wang Linsheng.

"Shut up! What are you? Is there any share in your words here?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone on the field took a fancy to Liu Feng. Where did someone come out?
