To the strong, he is a mocker; to the weak, he is a comforter.【】
This is Hugo's summary of the life of the father of French thought at a meeting commemorating the centenary of Voltaire's death.
In fact, there are not a few people like Voltaire in this world who are not afraid of power, dare to fight and are compassionate. Although they are not as famous as Voltaire, as men, they are "sensible" to the extent that they are However, it is not much worse than Voltaire. Coincidentally, Shen Tianlong is one of them.
It was only now that Shen Tianlong truly realized the helplessness of Yao Xiaodi and Yao Xiaodong. If Yao Zhijiang was willing to change his views, Yao Xiaodong would not become what he is today. If Yao Zhijiang was willing to give in, Yao Xiaodi would not need to kill his father. force!
Selfless in his heart, Shen Tianlong likes Yao Xiaodi from the bottom of his heart. From the first time he saw Yao Xiaodi, he fell in love with this gentle, generous, beautiful and intelligent girl.
Shen Tianlong's feelings for Yao Xiaodi actually have nothing to do with Yao Xiaodi's identity. But now their identity and family background have become a natural barrier between Shen Tianlong and Yao Xiaodi.
Shen Tianlong could not change the background of the two. Ever since he was born, Shen Tianlong was destined to be the son of a coal miner, while Yao Xiaodi was the daughter of the municipal party committee secretary.
Shen Tianlong cannot change his innate shortcomings, but he believes that everything depends on man-made efforts. He believes that the more people are bold, the more productive they will be. For Shen Tianlong, who has served as a soldier, Xiaomi and rifles can defeat aircraft and artillery. He and Yao Xiaodi What does this little difference mean? Warriors who have been armed with maozedong’s thoughts lack the most courage!
Shen Tianlong has the courage to accept Yao Xiaodi's love, and he also has the courage to love Yao Xiaodi. He has even more courage to face Yao Xiaodi's father, who is officially the municipal Party committee secretary.
Shen Tianlong looked at Yao Zhijiang triumphantly, pretending to be confident that he wanted to eat soft rice!
provocative!
Yes, Shen Tianlong was deliberately provoking Yao Zhijiang!
"you!"
Yao Zhijiang was so angry at Shen Tianlong that he couldn't say anything. He stretched out his finger and pointed at Shen Tianlong, his whole body trembling slightly.
In the entire Hongqi City, who is not polite and frightened when seeing Yao Zhijiang? Everyone wants to show their best side in front of Yao Zhijiang in order to be appreciated by Yao Zhijiang.
He had lived in a highly respected environment for a long time, and now he suddenly showed up with such a ruthless person like Shen Tianlong, which made Yao Zhijiang a little stunned. Suddenly, Yao Zhijiang suddenly lost his composure!
Eat soft rice! He can say so confidently about eating soft rice. Yao Zhijiang is definitely very angry at Shen Tianlong.
"Uncle Yao, don't be angry, I'm just joking with you." Seeing Yao Zhijiang's body shaking with anger, Shen Tianlong quickly put on a flattering smile and explained, Shen Tianlong continued to talk to Yao Zhijiang : "Uncle Yao, Xiaodi and I truly love each other. I hope you can bless us. In this world, I think no one can stop Xiaodi and us from admiring each other, not even ourselves!"
After leaving another sentence, Shen Tianlong quickly turned around and left, leaving Yao Zhijiang standing alone in the office with a livid face.
"Is he kidding me? He uses the daughter of the municipal party committee secretary to joke with the municipal party committee secretary? How can he be so confident when he is just eating soft rice? And he wants me to bless them?"
Shen Tianlong was arrogant in front and respectful in the back, and did not play according to the routine at all, which made Yao Zhijiang very depressed. Shen Tianlong left for a long time, and Yao Zhijiang was still thinking about Shen Tianlong's words. He was still wondering what kind of person Shen Tianlong was. Because Yao Zhijiang has experienced political ups and downs for so many years, he has never seen anyone like Shen Tianlong.
Although Shen Tianlong had just made Yao Zhijiang half angry, he actually felt uncomfortable in his heart. The beauty on the surface but the hesitation in the heart is the most appropriate portrayal of Shen Tianlong's heart now.
So after coming out of Yao Zhijiang's office, Shen Tianlong decided to talk to the battalion commander!
It was time to talk to the battalion commander. In 1985, the battalion commander was imprisoned in Beijing for being a football hooligan. However, after he came back, he mysteriously told Shen Tianlong that he had found a tough guy for him. There is a backstage, and this backstage is enough for the love between Shen Tianlong and Yao Xiaodi to sit back and relax.
But two years later, Shen Tianlong is now troubled internally and externally. He is bullied by Lu Yan at work and tortured by Yao Zhijiang emotionally. However, the so-called backstage of Shen Tianlong is not even visible.
Every time Shen Tianlong asked the battalion commander if he really had such a tough backing, the battalion commander laughed and ignored the problem, which made Shen Tianlong very depressed.
When Shen Tianlong arrived at the Veterans Hall with great momentum and walked into the battalion commander's large office, the battalion commander was calmly practicing calligraphy.
Shen Tianlong moved like lightning and snatched the brush from the battalion commander's hand, and then said angrily to the battalion commander: "Brother, do I have a backing? If you don't tell me clearly today, I will break up with you. "
Seeing Shen Tianlong come to him in anger again, the battalion commander smiled. This was not the first time Shen Tianlong came to ask about this matter. During this year, every now and then, Shen Tianlong felt that the pressure in his heart was too great, so he I'll ask the battalion commander once, and by the way, I'll try to flirt with the fact that someone like the uncle of the Prime Minister of the State Council suddenly appears.
The battalion commander didn't take Shen Tianlong's threats seriously at all.
"What's wrong? Who was bullied again?" the battalion commander looked at Shen Tianlong with a smile and asked.
"That old bastard Yao Zhijiang, what the heck, he actually wants to introduce me to someone today. I'm so angry." Shen Tianlong said.
"It's okay, don't watch him having fun now, be careful about making lists in the future!" The battalion commander crossed his legs on the desk and said to Shen Tianlong triumphantly
"Brother, do I have a backstage?" Shen Tianlong once again asked the battalion commander this question he had asked countless times.
"Of course there is, but it's not time for you to come forward from behind the scenes yet," the battalion commander said firmly.
"Then when will he show up?"
"Wait until he gets promoted!"
"..." Shen Tianlong was completely speechless.
After arranging for the hotel's kitchen to cook some dishes, the battalion commander and Shen Tianlong were in the battalion commander's office and started changing glasses again.
"Brother, what are you going to do in this hotel?" Shen Tianlong asked the battalion commander while drinking.
"Hey, let's just make do with it for now. Although the hotel doesn't make any money, it has housed some thieves. I went to your father-in-law the other day. Your father-in-law promised to recruit more workers for me in these companies in the city. Quota." The battalion commander sighed and said to Shen Tianlong
The battalion commander fought twice with the North and South Brigades for the thieves under his command. Although the battalion commander won both times, it was just a miserable victory. By now, the battalion commander has fought enough.
These thieves have always been a thorn in the battalion commander's mind. Although the battalion commander looks down on these people, they have been with him for so many years. He might want to leave them alone. The battalion commander is still a little bit reluctant, but leave them alone, thieves.
After all, it is not an honest profession, and they only bring endless trouble to the battalion commander.
After discussing with Fu Hong, the battalion commander simply incorporated into the hotel all the thieves who were willing to change their ways and had a good relationship with him. Although the scale of the battalion commander's hotel was not small, the number of positions it could provide was smaller than the number of thieves.
, but it is still far from enough.
In desperation, the battalion commander had to go to Yao Zhijiang again. Because he reported to Yao Zhijiang about the high-quality coal seams hidden under the Red Square Mining Bureau, Yao Zhijiang now has a pretty good impression of the battalion commander.
Hearing that the battalion commander wanted these thieves to abandon their secrets and turn to the bright side, Yao Zhijiang readily agreed to the battalion commander's request to place these thieves.
The former thief company was slowly disbanded by the battalion commander. Although the income was a little less, the stain on himself was wiped away, and the battalion commander was also very happy.
Happiness and misfortune always go hand in hand!
Although the battalion commander was very happy about placing the thief, he was also unhappy. During this year, Shen Tianlong suffered an unprecedented career crisis, and the battalion commander's business also plummeted.
When the battalion commander's veterans' hall opened, it was packed with guests, and even the local garrison troops in Hongqi City sent flower baskets to the battalion commander. But gradually, the battalion commander discovered that the veterans' hall had become a hot potato.
The Industrial and Commercial Bureau, the Taxation Bureau, the Epidemic Prevention Station, the Fire Brigade... as long as they are departments that can cause trouble for the Veterans Hall, since the hotel opened, there has been an endless stream of people coming here from time to time to look for trouble.
Although Fu Hong had strictly controlled the construction during the construction, and Fu Hong also worked hard on the management of the hotel, no one is perfect and nothing is perfect. No matter how hard Fu Hong tried, he could not deal with these people who sincerely wanted to cause trouble.
These law enforcers are picky about veterans' halls every day. Either today, the license will be taken away, or the day after tomorrow, if the hygiene standards are not up to standard, they will be fined. The tax department comes to review the hotel's accounting records, and the first trial lasts for several days, which makes the hotel's accountant confused.
Neither can work anymore.
"Hey, aren't you awesome? How dare a small industrial and commercial bureau clerk bully you now?" Shen Tianlong added insult to injury to the battalion commander without any sympathy.
"Damn it, I don't have a father who is the secretary of the municipal party committee!" the battalion commander cursed angrily.
Yes, the battalion commander’s old man’s power is in the military area. Let’s not talk about it beyond the reach of the commander. Even if the battalion commander can help the battalion commander, I’m afraid he will not do anything against his principles for his own son. This is the style of the old revolution!
1986-1987 was an unlucky year for both the battalion commander and Shen Tianlong. However, the difficulties encountered by the battalion commander were far greater than those of Shen Tianlong.
A group of government officials in the city, because the battalion commander's investment in the mining area blocked their way of making money, so they used various means to cause trouble for the battalion commander overtly and covertly.
Although the battalion commander was annoyed by these troubles, he didn't take them seriously. Ever since he handed over the underground coal seam exploration report to Yao Zhijiang, the battalion commander thought about the problems he had to face. After all, although these yamen can use various connections to
The battalion commander is looking for trouble, but they only dare to use white tricks!
The battalion commander's main business has always been the military ration business, and the government officials have no way to get involved in this matter. Therefore, even if the battalion commander's hotel loses money, it does not hurt him.
The officials did not dare to harm the battalion commander, but some people dared!
The person who dared to make the battalion commander take action was none other than the eldest brother of the pastoral area and the first warrior of the grassland, Su He! []
