On the day of departure, my mother got up early in the morning to cook. After the 5pm train, the two of them had to take the bus to the station at noon. Then the train traveled for fourteen hours and arrived in Shenyang at 7am the next morning.
Shencheng, the two of them are going to visit Xiao Nanguang's home, and then take a bus home from Shencheng. They will arrive in Fucheng at 11 o'clock tomorrow night. The mother has called the father a few days in advance, and he will ride his bicycle to pick up the mother and son.
For the two of them, it might be midnight when they get home.
Liu Lang felt horrified when he thought about this journey. Traveling in this era was really inconvenient. A distance of less than a thousand kilometers would take more than a day.
At nine o'clock in the morning, there was a knock on the door. Xu Wenxiu opened the door and Mu Xiaohu stood outside.
"You are Sister Xu, Liu Lang's mother, and I am Mu Xiaohu."
"Mu Xiaohu!"
Xu Wenxiu was suddenly shocked. The other party was that big shot.
"I have something to do with Liu Lang!"
Mu Xiaohu didn't see anyone outside and walked in carelessly.
"Liu Lang, come on, follow me as if you were meeting Lao Wang!"
"What are you seeing, Lao Wang? Don't you see these things? I'm going home today and I've bought the train ticket!"
Liu Lang said angrily.
"Our business is the most important thing. When can we not go home?"
Mu Xiaohu said.
"For me, going home is the most important thing. Let's talk about anything else when I come back!"
Liu Lang hated people who ignored others for the sake of his own affairs.
"What time is your bus?"
Mu Xiaohu asked quickly.
"The five o'clock train."
"At five o'clock, there's still time. Liu Lang, don't worry. If you can't get in the car in time, how about I drive you to Shencheng myself?"
"Is this...? Mom, what do you think we should do?"
Liu Lang looked at his mother.
"Son, go quickly, don't delay important things, we still have time."
How dare Xu Wenxiu say no? Such a big figure from the Mu family came to ask for her son, which made her feel proud.
"You and we have made an agreement, you can't delay my mother and I's return home."
Liu Lang was still a little worried.
"Oh, I, Mu Xiaohu, can still tell lies? Let's go quickly!"
Mu Xiaohu hugged Liu Lang without saying a word.
"I haven't put on my coat yet!"
Liu Lang put on his coat, got into Mu Xiaohu's car, started the car and sped away.
Half an hour later, the car stopped in a compound in the city center. There was a five-story building in the compound. The building was not conspicuous at all and was no different from other buildings, but the compound was filled with soldiers in uniform.
, everyone stood upright and alert at all times.
There was a fence blocking the entrance of the compound. Mu Xiaohu's car stopped in front of the door. Then a soldier came over and looked at two bars and two stars over his shoulder. When he saw Mu Xiaohu, he immediately signaled for the fence to open, and Mu Xiaohu's car drove off.
Go in.
"What is this place? The compound of your army?"
Liu Lang asked curiously.
"Hey, this is not an ordinary place. Did you see those soldiers? Everyone is carrying a gun. If anyone dares to break in, he will be killed on the spot."
When they arrived at the door of the building, the two got out of the car. There were soldiers standing guard on both sides of the door of the building. When they saw Mu Xiaohu, they immediately saluted.
"Liu Lang, follow me and don't get lost, otherwise you will be captured."
Mu Xiaohu specifically asked.
"Uh-huh!"
Liu Lang wouldn't dare run around in a place like this. The country's soldiers have nothing to say. They are selfless and don't care whether you are a child or an old person.
There is an elevator in this five-story building, which is very rare. There are two soldiers standing guard outside the elevator. Seeing Mu Xiaohu's arrival, one of them pressed the button at the elevator entrance a few times. The elevator door opened immediately, and he took
The two walked into the elevator.
"Liu Lang, have you seen this thing?"
Mu Xiaohu pointed at the elevator and asked with some pride. When he had something to do, he would find something "new" to embarrass Liu Lang.
"Give me enough materials and I will build you an elevator right away."
"you………!"
When Liu Lang said the word "elevator", the proud look on Mu Xiaohu's face immediately disappeared. He knew everyone's name, so of course he had nothing to show off.
"How come you, a little brat, know everything? It's boring, it's really boring!"
Mu Xiaohu waved his hands and shook his head.
The elevator went up to the top floor. The two people walked out of the elevator. There was a corridor in front of them. The ground was covered with thick carpets. Every five meters on both sides, two soldiers with live ammunition stood face to face.
Ten people, they were looking straight at the entrance of the elevator, holding the spear on their chest with both hands at the same time. Mu Xiaohu didn't care, he still looked like he didn't care about anything, but Liu Lang's back was chilled by Daodao's gaze.
But when these people saw Mu Xiaohu, they turned their faces away.
"Liu Lang, these uncles are all heroes who have experienced hundreds of battles. Don't offend them."
Mu Xiaohu trembled when he saw Liu Lang and said immediately.
"Why should I offend them?"
Liu Lang replied.
"I would also like to remind you that you are so cowardly that you dare to offend even me. I'm afraid there is no one in this world that you dare not offend."
Mu Xiaohu said.
"I offended you? When? How dare I?"
Of course Liu Lang had to refute.
"Look, you dare to talk back to me now. Aren't you offending me? It means I have a good temper. If it were these iron-blooded soldiers, I would kick you aside with one kick."
Mu Xiaohu said with a smile.
The soldiers standing here all murmured in their hearts, who is this child? Who is Mu Xiaohu? They knew clearly that the Mu family behind them was more powerful than their commander, but these words did not make Mu Xiaohu understand what he said.
Xiaohu takes it seriously. Could it be that he is a descendant of a larger family? That’s not right! There are only one or two families in the country that are bigger than the Mu family. They know everyone in these human races clearly.
Heard it!
Although they were curious in their hearts, their expressions remained as still as statues.
The two turned two turns along the corridor and reached the end. They came to a closed door. There were still two soldiers guarding the door. Seeing Mu Xiaohu's arrival, they hurriedly opened the door. Mu Xiaohu and Liu Lang came.
Walking in, Liu Lang saw that the door was entirely made of pure steel and probably weighed hundreds of kilograms. It was indeed a heavily guarded place.
The two entered a small gatehouse through the iron door. There were two soldiers in the gatehouse. They stood up immediately after seeing Mu Xiaohu.
"Wait a moment, I will report to the chief immediately."
After speaking, a soldier opened a door and walked in.
"Huh, if you do this to me every time, this old Wang will be troublesome!"
Mu Xiaohu muttered, but still waited here honestly.
The room inside is very spacious. The hall alone is more than 200 square meters, and there are several small doors around it. The hall is very simple, with a set of leather sofas and a large writing desk. There are many models of aircraft weapons on the writing desk.
Liu Lang's two "Autobot" models are also included.
, and the most prominent thing, but the most eye-catching thing is that there are dozens of guns hanging on one wall, including rifles, pistols, and submachine guns. There is also a heavy machine gun standing in the corner. The gun body has been polished brightly, reflecting the
The cold light and the iron-blooded style showed that the owner of this room was a soldier.
There were three people in the room. One was sitting on the sofa. He was about forty years old. He was wearing a military uniform and had a strong build. He had a short haircut and exuded a steel-like aura.
The style of the other two people is completely opposite to his. One is about the same age as this soldier. He is a bit fat. He is wearing a suit and leather shoes, his hair is combed to a shiny finish, and he has a green ring on his finger. He looks like a wealthy businessman.
The other person was also in a suit, but he was a little younger, probably in his mid-thirties, and he was holding a bottle of foreign wine and pouring wine into the glasses in front of the two of them.
"That's enough, this wine doesn't make you feel happy, it's not interesting!"
As soon as the soldier waved his hand, the person pouring the wine immediately removed the bottle. Anyone walked up to the other person and poured half a glass of wine for him.
"Third brother! This wine is a good thing. A bottle costs more than 10,000 yuan! I brought it from France specially."
The oily man said with a smile. Although he spoke in Mandarin, he had a strong Cantonese accent, which sounded very awkward.
"No wonder you guys look so effeminate, it's just because you drink this wine. Come on, take a sip of this, drink half the bottle and I'm sure you won't be afraid of anything!"
The soldier took out a bottle of Maotai from below and placed it on the table.
"No, no, this stuff is dynamite. A few days ago, Mulowu drank two mouthfuls of it in my mouth. I almost died on the table. I don't dare to drink it. I don't dare to drink it!"
The other party was so frightened that he shook his head repeatedly.
"You guys! If you want to deal with people like us, how can you do it without drinking this? You still have to practice!"
The soldier laughed and said.
"Third brother, you have the demeanor of a general. In ancient times, people like you were considered to be great figures who worshiped generals as marquises. They led troops to fight and swept through thousands of armies. They had such courage that no one could have deserved!"
The younger young man said.
"That's right. Who doesn't know about Third Brother's reputation? Especially the Japs in South Vietnam. They were all scared out of their wits when they heard about Third Brother's reputation."
The oily man said.
"Well, times have changed. The country has now entered the stage of economic development. War is no longer the focus. Even us soldiers have started to deal with you businessmen. Come on, I will take off this suit soon.
It’s hard to give up the military uniform and put it on a suit!”
The soldier touched his uniform and sighed.
"Third brother! This is the general trend of the country, and no one can stop it. Besides, only when the country has money can it afford to support the army. The decision above is also correct."
The oily man smiled.
"You are right, the country just has no money! If it is as powerful as the United States, how dare those guys in South Vietnam dare to "set up a stick"? It is because I want to make money that I found you capitalists. You are the ones who make the money.
You are a master! Come and have a drink!"
There was still a little foreign wine in the soldier's glass. He raised it and gestured to the two of them. The other person immediately picked up the glass and came over, banged it with him, and drank it all in one gulp.
"Third brother, don't worry, your Yongli Company will definitely have no problem cooperating with my Huo family. I'm sure you will make a lot of money when the time comes."
The oily man immediately expressed his determination.
"Second brother, I know how loyal your Huo family is to the country. The reason why I asked you to cooperate is because I value you. When it comes to business, I am a layman and know nothing about it. But the country has given me this task, and I will definitely complete it.
Yes, as for how to complete it? That’s up to you... But don’t worry, second brother, the country will not treat you badly."
The soldier looked at the greasy man and said.
"That's right, with Third Brother's words, I feel relieved."
