Chapter 171: Speculation
"Yuemin, is it the third brother of Criticism?" Seeing Zhong Yuemin coming back, the dog baby came up from afar, and he and Lame San sold vegetables together, and the relationship was very close.
Zhong Yuemin nodded, "At the public trial meeting, he was convicted of speculation and counter-revolution, sentenced to 20 years, and sent to the labor camp on the spot." ”
"Twenty years!" the dog baby lost her voice and said: "Then the third brother will be almost sixty years old when he comes out!
"If you can save your life, it's good!" Zhao Dayong interjected next to him: "I read the newspaper yesterday, and many other places also arrested a lot of speculative elements, and many of them were shot!"
"Huh?" Gouwa heard it for the first time, and was a little panicked: "What did the third brother do, why did he become a speculator?"
"It's about buying things at a low price and selling them at a high price, making a profit, which is making money. Zhao Dayong explained.
"Isn't that just about making money?
Zhao Dayong didn't know how to explain, so he said: "It's just not allowed to do business." ”
"Aren't we also doing business when we sell vegetables?" the dog baby thought for a while, a little nervous, "Then aren't we also speculative?"
"We call it self-production and self-sale, growing and selling vegetables by ourselves, which is not speculation. Zhao Dayong hurriedly corrected, this can't be nonsense.
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's speculation or not!" At this time, a group of people came next to him, and the leader was wearing a military uniform and a red armband.
A few people who were shopping for vegetables hurriedly ran away, and the people around them who were carrying burdens and selling things also quickly slipped away when they saw the posture here.
Zhao Dayong was a little flustered: "Who are you? Why do you say that we are speculating?"
"You kid is not timid, you dare to ask why! Just because we are the county speculative office!" The red armband of the leader waved his hand, "Take the people back and pull the car away!"
Zhong Yuemin saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly stepped forward, "Comrade, I am the production captain of Ishikawa Village, and my name is Zhong Yuemin." We are not speculative, this is the sideline business of our production team, and the vegetable sales are also organized by the production team, and all the income is also returned to the team. ”
"Oh, you're still a production captain, do you have any supporting documents?" When the leader heard this, his attitude was a little better, and the people he brought stopped moving.
Zhao Dayong and the dog baby were a little scared, and they didn't feel that they were standing behind Zhong Yuemin.
Zhong Yuemin hurriedly took out the certificate in his pocket, "The production team and the brigade above have been stamped, and we are a sideline for the development of agricultural leisure." ”
The red armband looked at it by himself, and returned it to Zhong Yuemin, "It's no problem that you grow vegetables as a side business, but do you have a license to sell vegetables?"
"Didn't the village write a certificate?" Zhong Yuemin asked.
"It's useless to open in the village, and you have to get permission from the county. You'd better come with me!" the red armband flicked his sleeves and left.
Zhong Yuemin still wanted to argue, but he was surrounded by a group of people all of a sudden, so he had to obediently follow.
······
Along the way, people were constantly arrested, most of them farmers carrying baskets to sell shoes, fruits, eggs, steamed buns, etc.
The people who were arrested all frowned, and the confiscated things may be the last valuable things in the family, and they may have come out to exchange some money because they had to see a doctor, go to school, or get married, but they didn't expect to be deducted like this.
When they arrived at the place, Zhong Yuemin and others were locked up in a warehouse in the backyard of the county party committee, and forty or fifty people were locked up under black pressure, the warehouse was crowded, and people were constantly locked in.
Zhong Yuemin is more familiar with this kind of place, and took the initiative to occupy the position near the window, but unfortunately the window is too small and the position is too high, but it is better than nothing.
The dog baby and Zhao Dayong are inexperienced, both of them are a little trembling, especially the dog baby has been crying and sad since she was arrested.
"Yuemin, won't you be condemned for speculation and locked up for twenty years, right?" said the dog baby and cried, "What about Chunhua with the child!"
"Don't worry, Sister Chunhua will find another man to raise the child together, you don't have to worry about it. Zhong Yuemin said.
"Ahh······h I don't agree!" The dog baby said excitedly, forgetting to cry all of a sudden.
"Dog, you quickly wipe your eyes, a big man is crying like this!" Zhao Dayong sneered, turned his head and confirmed with Zhong Yuemin: "We shouldn't be in prison, right?
"I don't know, didn't I get arrested with you too?" Zhong Yuemin found a cloth bag and spread it on the ground and lay on it, "I took out all the certificates issued by the village, and people ignored me, maybe it's really more auspicious." ”
Zhao Dayong panicked all of a sudden, and regretted: "What can I do, I!? Zheng Tongjing is the same as a monkey, he has long been hiding to the side, why am I so stupid and still come to the county seat to sell vegetables!"
"E-stupid, the third brother has been arrested, and E-go into the city to sell vegetables like a spoon!" The dog baby also found a place to sit down, "E-why do you see the money open-mindedly, and covet selling vegetables to earn this money? If you go to prison this time, you don't know which wild man will spend so much money!"
Zhong Yuemin didn't care what they regretted, he got up in the middle of the night last night and set off, and today he tossed all morning, he was already a little sleepy, and he didn't have to rush back in the afternoon, just sleep here, but the ground was a little too hard.
Zhao Dayong and Gouwa howled for a while, complaining to each other, and suddenly heard a snoring sound.
"Hey, Dayong, Yuemin is asleep!" the dog baby looked at Zhong Yuemin who was asleep and pushed Zhao Dayong.
Zhao Dayong didn't care, "I didn't sleep all night last night, I was too sleepy." But I really admire him, he is all locked in, and he can still sleep!"
"No, Dayong, Yuemin can fall asleep, does it mean that the foreheads are locked in, and it is not a matter in his heart?"
"The truth is this, but Yuemin can't guarantee it, isn't it?" Zhao Dayong also felt that what the dog baby said was reasonable, but he was a little worried.
The dog baby was arrogant, "I'm afraid of a ball! If you want to go to prison, you will also go to prison with Yuemin, Yuemin is not afraid, what are you afraid of!"
"Then you're really not afraid?" Zhao Dayong asked.
"Don't be afraid, go to sleep first!" After speaking, the dog baby really fell to the ground and fell asleep, and he snored after a while, he was really tired from selling vegetables recently.
Zhao Dayong looked at the two lying on the ground, and also felt that it was not interesting to worry about the previous worry, so he simply found a place to sleep.
The room was full of people, all of them frightened and worried, but the three people in the corner slept in the dark, snoring one after another, like blowing a trumpet.
It's also amazing to say, with these three people taking the lead, the hearts of the others who have been hanging have been relaxed, and their spirits have also relaxed.
This relaxation, people who have been tired for most of the day are a little sleepy, and most of them are asleep in the warehouse for a while, and the snoring is even more continuous.
The staff guarding the warehouse saw this scene, and their noses were crooked.
