In '98, although the Northeast has gradually recovered from the throes of a large-scale wave of layoffs, there are still a large number of unemployed young men and women who dropped out of school early and were originally going to work in various factories. They are often young, have a low level of education, and although they have some skills, they are no longer useful.

In front of the building of the county government of Binxian County, H Province, although the big sign of "Warmly Celebrating the Return of Hong Kong" has been washed away by the rain, it has a unique beauty in this cold winter season, and the snow is covered with red silk.

"Knock knock!"

The sound of the motor sounded, and a dilapidated motorcycle roared to the side of the road, and the young man in the seat had red ears, hurriedly pulled out the key, turned his head and looked around.

"Ozawa, what's going on here!" someone waved at the door of the North Korean restaurant opposite the county government.

"It's coming!" Ozawa smiled and nodded, got out of the car and kicked off the pedals of the motorcycle, and ran over.

……

Inside a North Korean restaurant.

Ozawa took off his leather gloves and teased while hitting the snow frost on his pants: "On this day, if you don't speak for a minute, you can freeze your mouth...... It's too cold. ”

"Why are you so slow?" a young man in a red sweater smiled and accosted a young man near the table near the door. His name is Shen Shennan, and he is Ozawa's cousin.

“…… The battery is frozen and dead, and I have it in it. Ozawa cleaned the snow and frost off his body and walked over.

"Come, come and sit. After Shen Yannan greeted him, he poured boiling water for Xiao Ze and introduced to several other people at the table: "This is my brother, Shen Tianze, the child of my three masters." ”

"Hey, Ozawa. ”

"Hehe, the young man is very energetic, come and sit. ”

“…… I think I'm pretty average!" Ozawa replied with a grin, and sat down next to Shen Yannan with a grin.

"You're as shameless as your brother!"

"Haha!"

Everyone laughed.

Shen Tianze is twenty-two years old this year, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, good facial features, and a great love of cleanliness. The brown leather jacket on his body has been worn for three years, but the leather surface is still smooth and shiny, and the lower body of the woolen pants is straight, not even a gray spot, the young man looks clean and neat, very flattering.

"Hey, aren't you unwilling to smash the bar with me, why do you still take the initiative to follow today?" Shen Yannan turned his head and asked Xiao Ze.

"Brush!"

When Ozawa heard the voice, he handed over the Motorola Hanxian pager on his waist, and after Shen Yannan took it and glanced at it, he opened his mouth and asked, "Your brother is coming back today?"

"Ah, he paged me last night. Shen Tianze scratched his head a little embarrassed and smiled, leaning on Shen Yannan's ear and responding, "I met a little girl two days ago...... The whole body is empty, and the pocket is empty. Hehe, my eldest brother is back, I want to buy him a Mengte petite shirt, and arrange for him by the way. ”

"You're in the coffin, and you remembered that you haven't taken the passbook with you yet, right?" Shen Yannan scolded speechlessly: "If you work with me for a day, it will be two or three hundred yuan at most, and he will be home tonight...... What are you going to do?"

"I'm going to do this with you all this day, mainly to let you see my sincerity first. Then if you think it's okay, give me half a month's head money overdraft. Shen Tianze bared his teeth and said.

"Damn, I don't think so!" Shen Yannan rolled his eyes and scolded: "I don't know if I can do this job for half a month!

"Are we buddies? Are we a surname? Why do you ask you something, so grinding? With this little money, are you still afraid that I will run away?"

"Well, I'm afraid!"

"Don't, you're funny, Brother Nan, Brother Nan, I love you...... Brother Nan, I will sleep with the girl at night in the future, and let her call you by her name, okay?" Shen Tianze discussed cheekily.

"Get out of the way! This is your eldest brother, why are you so good to him?Why haven't I seen you borrow money to arrange for me?" Shen Yannan was a little jealous.

"Aren't we two Dabao seeing each other every day, isn't he out of town?"

“…… I'll give you 1,500 yuan!" Shen Yannan could only respond helplessly: "I don't have much in my pocket, you can figure out the rest yourself." ”

"Okay, no, I sold the motorcycle. Shen Tianze nodded with satisfaction and asked, "When are you going?"

"Leave after eating. ”

"Okay. Shen Tianze picked up the chopsticks when he heard the sound, lowered his head and ate the barbecue.

……

Smash the bar!

Before 03 years, the professional term of some unemployed youth in the Northeast. Its meaning is very simple, it mainly refers to some people who have no legitimacy to go to a specific road to collect informal road maintenance fees, and it is mainly concentrated in dirt roads around the countryside, and generally has the tacit consent of local villagers.

In this era, the national road construction is not perfect, many long-distance vehicles in order to avoid toll stations and overload fines, will generally choose to drive on the surrounding rural dirt road for a while, and then pass the toll station and traffic police post and then return to the national highway. Therefore, many villages near toll booths have become large roads for long-distance buses.

If there is only one car or two cars, then the villagers will not say anything, but there are cars passing by day and night, one is that it will destroy the road in the village, and the big car will run a few times, and the road will be full of rut marks and big potholes; second, it will also affect rest at night, so many villagers will find someone to set up two large tables in the section of the road where the vehicle passes, and forcibly collect tolls. But the asking price is generally not too high, and the driver of the big car is willing to pay this money in order to avoid trouble.

However, after 03 years, the highways were opened one by one, and this work became history.

Afternoon.

Shen Tianze followed Shen Nan to Xiaowang Village, sat outdoors in the ice and snow, wrapped in a military coat, and wondered in his heart, when the eldest brother arrived home at night, where would he take him to be chic. And the matter of smashing the bar and charging is done by others, because he has this relationship with Shen Yannan, and others will not say anything.

After staying until more than five o'clock in the evening, Shen Shennan walked back from the village commissary, directly called Xiao Ze aside, and secretly gave him more than 1,800 cash.

"So many?" Shen Tianze was stunned.

"One thousand and five are what I gave, and more than three hundred is today's expense. Shen Yannan said innocently while eating ham sausage and bread.

"More than three hundred, how much money did you collect today?" Shen Tianze asked speechlessly.

“…… It's okay, when I gave the village six points, I secretly hid more than 100 points, you take it, don't say anything, it's over. Those people, I gave thirty or fifty after a while, and they all sent away. Shen Yannan waved his hand and responded: "Carry it!"

"They can't be unhappy, right?" Shen Tianze asked with a frown.

"Smack!"

Shen Yannan took out a big circlip from his pocket as if playfully, and said angrily: "When I take the job, they will follow the obedient to make money; your face, it on the spot!"

"You put that play away, can you mature a little?!" Shen Tianze squinted his eyes while checking the money.

"I'm going to be a little more mature, and I can't fool you around a thousand hundred and eighteen. Shen Yannan swallowed the bread into his mouth in two bites, then waved his hand and said, "Go, it's not too early, you go pick him up, I'll go back to you two later!"

"Then I'm leaving?"

"Well, let's go!"

"Come early in the evening!"

"Okay, I got it!"

As soon as the words fell, the two brothers were about to separate, when two walk-behind tractors carrying more than 20 people hurriedly drove over.

"Damn, who is Shen Yannan!" After the tractor stopped, a strong man with five big and three thick jumped down with a sickle.

"What's wrong?" Shen Tianze was stunned.

"Looking for something, right?" Shen Yannan scolded, and shouted as he walked forward: "I am, what's wrong?"

"Your name is Shen Yannan?" the strong man asked with a big mouth.

"What?"

"Who told you to smash the bar here?"

“…… Little Six in the village, what's wrong?" Shen Yannan led his brother to greet him.

"Xiaoliu is a JB! We collect money here, don't you know?" The strong man kicked away the dilapidated desk blocking the middle of the road, waved his hand and shouted: "Give me the money, hurry up and roll the calf!"

"Brother, there is always a first come and a last arrival in everything, right? We have already started, why roll the calves?" one of Shen Yannan's brothers asked with a frown.

"I'm drawing circles, you know?"

"Brother, are you so bullish?!" Shen Yannan tilted his neck, broke the big circlip knife with his back hand and scolded: "Hey, then why don't you draw a circle in the White House and care about Clinton's road expenses?!"

"Little B cub ......!"

"Damn, you're the god of death, you're still carrying a scythe!" Shen Yannan roared, and pounced on the strong man with a big circlip in his right hand.

"Hey, don't ......!" Ozawa saw his cousin's edged eyes, and knew that this thing was going to be moved, so he quickly reached out to stop it.

"Puff...... Puff ......!"

Shen Yannan doesn't look tall, but he shoots extremely fast, and rushes up with an arrow, facing the strong man is a casual knife technique, regardless of whether it is critical or not, anyway, where the tip of the knife is pointing, it is the target.

The strong man didn't expect Shen Yannan to be such an animal, and he let the other party get close to him when he couldn't take precautions for a while, so the sickle was useless in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, the cotton on the military coat was stabbed and flew around, which was extremely embarrassing.

After the two leaders fought, the two sides began to fight each other. And Shen Tianze didn't want to do it at first, because he felt that what he was taking was the money he came to help, and he couldn't afford to dance with others, but as soon as his cousin made a move, it was impossible for him to watch, so he picked up the bench and threw it at the strong man.

The two sides worked for less than thirty seconds, and after the strong man's military coat was about to be stabbed into a hornet's nest, he turned around and ran away. And Shen Yannan was also beaten red after being beaten with two sticks, and chased after him like a mad dog.

"Alright, pull it down!!" Shen Tianze shouted after him panting.

"Stupid, stand there for me!"

The strong man continued to run.

"You're running to the beginning of your life today, I'll you!" Shen Yannan still chased after him.

"Come back!" Shen Tianze ran to the fork of breath, holding his stomach and shouting again.

Shen Yannan rushed into the big field full of snow shells, still chasing the strong man.

"Damn, livestock......" After Shen Tianze gasped, he was about to follow again, but when he looked back, seven or eight of the people led by the strong man chased after him.

"!"

Shen Tianze saw that he didn't have anything in his hand, so he turned around and ran out of the village.

……

After the battle was over, Shen Tianze ran back to the county, first inquired about Ember Nan with others, and after learning that he also ran out, he hurriedly went to the store in the street to buy a Meng Tejiao T-shirt, and then took a taxi to the train station.

Standing at the train station and waiting for more than eight o'clock in the evening, Shen Tianze still didn't see the eldest brother he missed in his heart, but waited for a police car and three policemen who got off the car.

“…… Your name is Shen Tianze?" asked the leading policeman.

"Ah, what's wrong?"

"Did you fight in Xiaowang Village in the afternoon?"

"It's not a war, it's a beating!" Shen Tianze replied confidently.

"Don't be scared, did you stab someone?" the policeman scolded.

Shen Tianze was stunned on the spot when he heard this, and secretly said in his heart that it was bad, his wolf dog cousin must have stabbed the strong man on the other side.

"Come with us!" the policeman grabbed Shen Tianze's arm and dragged him into the police car.
