"Oh, I can't say that what I said is wrong, but it is the lowest opinion...!" The middle-aged man's tone was still disdainful.
"...Can we stop pretending? Can we say it's nutritious? Or we'll get struck by lightning!!" I found that he would always throw cold water on you when you are most excited.
"Let's take my example. In 1991, I started a seafood business. I was young and vigorous at the time, and I spent a lot of money after I had some money. Later, the business slumped, and coupled with poor management, I lost even a dime of the little money I had just accumulated.
I had no money left, and I wanted to die at that time, because I had saved all that money, and I was only in my twenties at the time. This incident had a huge impact on me, so I drank every day and was depressed.
, several of my very good brothers came to me and drank with me in a shabby little restaurant every day. We all had no money and it was difficult to buy a pack of cigarettes to smoke. Although they taught me every day, I found that we
A group of people were drinking together, and the more we drank, the more uncomfortable we became, because none of us were doing well. In the end, they failed to persuade me, and instead made themselves very depressed, so we all had to hang ourselves with a rope!!
"The middle-aged man took a sip of water.
"Speak quickly, speak quickly! What happened next?" My gossip flames were igniting and I continued to urge.
"Haha, later on, a brother of mine whom I hadn't contacted for many years heard about my plight for some reason. He came back directly from Guangzhou. When he saw me, he didn't say a word and directly withdrew one million from the bank.
The cash was slapped on my table, and then he said to me: "What's the point of losing some money? You can take the money and spend it as you like!! We still have it if we pay it!!" The middle-aged man glanced at me, and then continued.
.
"The moment I saw the money, my depressed mood for many days suddenly disappeared, and I became full of energy! I decided to give it another try! It was this one million that made me regain my confidence! Enter again
Seafood market! In just one year, I spent tens of millions at the seafood market! The people who drank with me were good brothers, and the people who gave me money were also brothers! They all undoubtedly wanted to help me get out of the predicament, but which way?
What’s more convincing??”
"..." I thought again.
"One is a brother who is anxious to see you in trouble and cannot help. The other is a brother who has gained a certain ability and social status after years of hard work!! He can give me confidence at my most critical moment.
Let me make a comeback...and even save my life at a critical moment. If it were you, what kind of brothers would you choose to be among your partners??"
"..." I continued to ponder!
I have always believed that my ability to survive in the bloodier and more dangerous bloody world in the future is inseparable from this middle-aged man.
It’s not that the conversation with him in just five days changed me, but he was like a key to enlightenment. Often his words, which seemed to be intentional or unintentional, could always wake me up at critical moments and make me think of something.
Many previous incidents.
It made me suddenly understand that some of the things Brother Xu and Li Meng did did not mean that my IQ had become higher... but that I could really calm down and analyze problems rationally.
And this kind of rationality is difficult to embody in ordinary people, because most people have difficulty controlling their emotions and look at problems unconsciously mixed with personal emotions, so the more they want to know, the more blurry they become.
And my current rationality!!
It is not mixed with any emotion!!
Being so calm makes me feel particularly scary...
The fifth day of the lunar month, the weather, blizzard!!
"Crack!" Two armed policemen opened Goudongzi's door, then took a look around the prison with their guns in hand.
"I'll give you five minutes, is that enough?" One of the armed policemen said to the middle-aged man before he came in.
"No... no need... ha... ha, let's go!" The middle-aged man opened his bloodshot eyes and replied with a stutter.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment when he looked at the armed police. Then he stood twice without standing up. Finally, with the support of Cao Jie and Tianyang, he slowly walked towards the armed police.
The middle-aged man brushed my body and walked over. I leaned against the toilet wall and read a book, without moving at all.
The man walked past me, paused for a moment, then walked off the shop floor. He was supported by two armed policemen, put on a black hood, and walked out of the cell.
"Bang!"
Goudongzi’s door is locked again!!
"I bought a pit at Erlongshan Cemetery... Come and stay with me if you have nothing to do...!"
The voice of a middle-aged man came from the empty corridor of the prison!
"I know...!" I looked at the book, still not looking up, and said in a voice that only I could hear.
At this time, the only image left in my mind was that of a middle-aged man, with slow footsteps, red bloodshot eyes, and a trembling body!!!
I raised my head and looked at the closed, rusty iron door. Apart from a little pity for the middle-aged man in my heart... the rest was actually indifference... and numbness...
Have I... changed??
"...."
Three months later, I officially opened the court.
After five days.
"307 Meng Fei! 306 Wang Mu...!" This is the voice issuing judgment and discipline.
"We're here!!" I yelled, pulling my neck, and quickly ran to the door of the prison fence.
I'm almost sleepy because I'm waiting for this verdict. I have insomnia every day, and I'm a little nervous.
"The verdict has been handed down??" I asked the prison guard anxiously, standing on the prison railing with my big watery eyes staring at him.
"...Yeah!" The supervisor seemed to be in a bad mood.
"How long is the sentence?! Let me out quickly... I'm going to die from suffocation! My testicles have been obviously cramped in the past few days... they have no water... they're so damn small... they're numb
!I, a "iron man", don't do his damn business. I went to Sanya to play, but you kept my "elixir"!!" Wang Mumu also shouted next to him.
"...Stop making noise, fuck! Discipline, how long will it take?" I was annoyed by Wang Mumu, so I stopped him, and then asked the discipline officer.
"...Not good...!" The guard continued with a grimace.
"Not good? How long was that?! We can't just shoot him!!" Wang Mumu, an idiot, continued to curse himself...
"Ten years!! Sign it!!" the guard continued with a straight face.
Buzz!!!
My mind went blank for a moment, ten years!! It turned out to be *** ten years?? I will be thirty after I go out... ***, my big baby Hong Xin, *** is thirty-six!!
Suddenly a piece of lyrics came to my mind, the lyrics of Old Boy!!
It hasn’t bloomed yet, so it’s fucking withered!!?
