Chapter 291: Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky of the 1st degree
Uncle Nakhimov in Khodokowsky's mouth is an old man who looks like he is already in his sixtieth year, with a gray and messy head and some shabby clothes, which shows that his economic situation is not good, and in the wind with a bit of coldness, the empty left hand sleeve attracted the attention of Fang Mingyuan and the others.
The old man sat on a low folding chair and placed a cloth in front of him on which several sets of old Soviet military uniforms and some medals were placed. Before Fang Mingyuan came to the Soviet Union, he specially asked Chai Yan to find a copy of the Soviet Union's medals and medals for him, and memorized the photos and contents. Here he saw the Lomonosov Gold Medal, the Bo*v Gold Medal, the Ushinsky Silver Medal, the Grand Gold Medal of the USSR Geographical Society, the Litke Gold Medal, as well as the Medal for the Victory over Japan in the Great Patriotic War and the Medal for the Victory over Germany in the Great Patriotic War.
The old man looked up at Khodorkovsky, pointed to something on the cloth, but did not speak.
Khodorkovsky squatted down, looked directly into the old man's eyes and said: "Uncle Nakhimov, I know that you have a lot of medals that you want to sell, but you have never had a suitable opportunity. Today, I have brought you a big client, maybe you can transfer those collections all at once, so that you will have money to heal. ”
Listening to Luo Jin's whispered translation, Fang Mingyuan felt a little sorry in his heart, it seemed that this was another example of being forced to make a decision by life. In the years before and after the collapse of the Soviet Union, I don't know how many people faced the same predicament as this old man.
"Whether they are Japanese devils, or Korean sticks in South Korea, even if they starve to death, my medal must not fall into the hands of these beasts!" said the old man in a hoarse voice.
Khodorkovsky laughed and said: "Uncle Nakhimov, I still don't know that you are sick, you are bringing Chinese people, not Japanese devils and South Korean Goryeo sticks!"
Only then did the old man set his eyes on Fang Mingyuan and the others, stretched out his hand and said, "Show me their passports!"
Khodorkovsky stood up and said to Mingyuan with some embarrassment: "Uncle Nakhimov is a veteran of the Siberian garrison, who once fought against the Japanese, and is very disgusted with the Japanese and their accomplices, the Koreans. He also has no relatives at home, and although he has a difficult life now, he has to sell the medals he collected, but he will never sell them to Japanese and Koreans. In the past two days, there are Japanese people who want to buy those medals from him, so Uncle Nakhimov wants to see your passports. Fang Mingyuan and the three took out their passports and handed them to Khodorkovsky.
"Hehe, I have a little more affection for this old man. Rozin said in a very low voice. Fang Mingyuan nodded sympathetically.
Old man Nakhimov took the passport and looked at it carefully, then handed it back to Khodorkovsky and said: "I have a request, I know that they Chinese people value their ancestors very much, and if they are willing to swear in the name of their ancestors that they will not sell these medals to Japanese devils and Goryeo sticks, then I agree to take them to see my collection." ”
"This old hairy man is really interesting!" Luo Jin touched his chin and said thoughtfully.
For his request, Fang Mingyuan and the others were a little more interested, it seemed that the old man might really have something good in his hands, otherwise the Japanese who had always been shrewd would not have targeted him.
The old man Nakhimov saw that Fang Mingyuan and the three of them nodded in agreement, so he put away the stall in front of him, picked up the chair, Khodorkovsky hurriedly stepped forward to help him carry his things, and the group walked outside along the road next to him.
I didn't go far, crossed two streets, and came to the door of a somewhat dilapidated three-story cottage on the side of the road. There were already two people standing at the door of the house, and Fang Mingyuan could see clearly that it was the Soviet guide they had met in the store and the young man who claimed to be a staff member of the Huhe County Government, but the Japanese was not among them. Seeing the old man Nakhimov returning, the two men immediately greeted him.
The two sides met each other, and the young man was stunned. He didn't expect that he would actually collide with Fang Mingyuan and a few of them here.
"Uncle Nakhimov, this friend of China wants to see your collection of medals. The Soviet said loudly.
Luo Jin and the others looked at each other, thinking of the old man Nakhimov who said just now that a Japanese wanted to buy his medal and was refused, and several people thought about whether it was the Japanese who saw him in the store who asked him to do it.
"Hey, I didn't expect to see you here again. I said, what is the Japanese named Fujita who was with you just now? What's the matter, I don't need you to accompany me?" Rozin asked deliberately in a loud Russian voice.
Old man Nakhimov immediately changed color and questioned the Soviet man in an extremely stern voice.
He said that he did not sell anything to the Japanese and Koreans, but did the other party not know? That person was defending himself by saying that he did not know what the Japanese wanted to buy, and that the Chinese man said he wanted to buy it, and that he had heard that the old man Nakhimov had it here. The old man Nakhimov asked him again if there was indeed a Japanese businessman just now, and the man confessed. Luo Jin translated for the two.
Wu Jiangguo is almost going crazy, how can these people not disperse, and they can bump into each other wherever they go! He is a cadre who has recently come down to take up a temporary post, and this time a Japanese businessman who wants to invest has come to the county, and since he knows some Japanese, the county has handed over the reception work to him. But he never thought that he would let these people destroy it twice in a row.
"Take out your documents!" Wu Jiangguo stopped Luo Jin in a menacing manner, "Do you know that this kind of behavior of yours is smearing the motherland! It is sabotaging the great cause of our country's construction! It is adding trouble to the work in the county!" His words immediately made Fang Mingyuan and the three of them frown in unison, Fang Mingyuan hates this kind of cadre who takes a big hat at every turn, and he has to talk about the motherland and the party when he does something bullshit, as long as it is conducive to his political achievements, the interests of others have to be conceded. Isn't it just that a Japanese person is planning to invest in building a factory, and how much money can be invested in such a border area? Judging by this person's temperament, he almost wants to offer the other party as an ancestor. Is it that this Japanese has a crush on a girl, and if they refuse, he will also think that they have destroyed the construction of the country?
"Discrediting the motherland and sabotaging the great cause of national construction?" I remember that the traitors and lackeys of the Japanese often said that! What did our party say about resisting Japan and destroying the common prosperity of Greater East Asia?" Fang Mingyuan sneered, "Do you think so?"
Luo Jin didn't expect that Fang Mingyuan would be difficult this time, and his words were so sharp that he didn't leave any affection for the other party. He was stunned for a moment before he said: "Yes, according to the old man of our family, when those two devils in the Northeast collected grain and robbed the flower girl, they had such a shameful face. It's prohibitive! I can't wait to meet her, so I smoke 88 big mouths, and then step on one foot, so that I will never be able to turn over. ”
"Eighty-eight big mouths are too few, how can you smoke a thousand eight hundred, let him recognize who the ancestor is, don't forget the ancestor!" Wu Wei was not to be outdone. A small county cadre dared to point fingers at himself, but it was still for the sake of a Japanese, which made him even more angry.
Wu Jiangguo, whose face was flushed, opened his mouth in surprise, he didn't expect that these three people would dare to insult him as a cadre, saying that he was a traitor and two devils, and they were so sharp that he didn't have the slightest affection.
"You, you...... What you are doing is sabotaging the rare Sino-Japanese friendly relations!" Wu Jiangguo rebuked sharply.
"Get out! or I'll slap you here!" Rozin stepped forward and glared angrily. Diao Min, this is the first time this name has fallen on his head. And it's a little person in a county who shouldn't even be able to reach the department level. With Luo Jin's movements, Chen Zhong and the three of them also took a few steps forward.
Wu Jiangguo took two steps back in fear, buttoned up his big hat, and played tricks, he was still successful, if Luo Jin really did it, don't look at him ten years younger than Luo Jin, but he didn't have any confidence in his heart. Not to mention, Chen Zhong and the three of them looked like bodyguards at first glance. "Wait and see!" turned around and left. It's like a lamb with a hungry wolf behind him. The Soviet smiled awkwardly and turned away as well.
"Bombastic waste!" Fang Mingyuan said secretly in his heart. In addition to being able to buckle a big hat and rely on the official's power, and then to pat yourself on the back and figure out the psychology of the boss, you have no skills.
With no one to disturb them, Fang Mingyuan and the others were finally able to enter the old man Nakhimov's house. The old man's house was on the second floor, and the house was very dilapidated and empty, and the only furniture seemed to be some years old. But a few people could tell from the marks on the floor that there were some places where furniture should have been placed.
The old man Nakhimov asked a few people to wait in the living room, and went into the back room himself. After a while, he walked out with a medium wooden box and put it on the table.
When I opened the box, there were small wooden boxes inside. The old man picked up the top wooden box and handed it to Khodorkovsky. Khodowsky handed the box to Fang Mingyuan again.
Fang Mingyuan opened the box, and there was a medal inside. He looked at it carefully, and couldn't help blurting out: "This is the Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky!"
A glint flashed in the old man's somewhat cloudy eyes, and he said something in a deep voice.
Luo Jin said: "The old man said that this is a first-class wave......... What a base medal!"
