Ye Haodong sat up, stretched out his hand to grab Zhang Tianpeng's hand, and pointed to the distant mountains outside with the other, and said, "Do you know the origin of my name of the New Green Group?" Look over there, the withered yellow grass on the mountain is withering, and a little new green is emerging under the grass roots, I like the mountains of this season, silent but with vigorous upward momentum, vast and unstoppable! ”

Zhang Tianpeng was confused: "What are you talking about, it's useless to mess around, you don't want to cheat." ”

Ye Haodong laughed proudly: "It's not my turn to play tricks, I'm telling you, I'm the mountain in the spring, the grass and trees are already fresh and green when they are withered and yellow, it seems that the mountains and rivers are exhausted, in fact, there is hidden vitality, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, buddy has been serving his sentence here for a few days, if you want to see me again, you have to work in Xijiang, my next stop is Shiweizi Labor Reform Farm in Xijiang, what's the matter, buddy is better than you!" ”

Zhang Tianpeng was dumbfounded. This kid's competitiveness is too terrible, he didn't hesitate to practice himself so badly for a gambling contract, the place where water can't be splashed in the western Xinjiang, even if he can find a competent nursery to get a quick commutation of the sentence, with Ye Haodong's * can't go there to find guilt.

Ye Haodong patted Zhang Tianpeng on the shoulder and said seriously: "Brother, let's follow Brother Haodong in the future." ”

Zhang Tianpeng pulled his hand away in annoyance, frowned and asked, "Are you really Ge'er or are you making fun of me?" ”

Ye Haodong was disdainful: "Do you think I'm so idle?" However, don't get angry, didn't you say that I am a boss who is very good at taking a little brother, and with me, you will improve. ”

Zhang Tianpeng's face was blue and ugly, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "What price can make you cancel that bet?" ”

Ye Haodong looked at him with a straight face: "Do you really want me to say?" I have a big appetite! ”

Zhang Tianpeng said one word: "Say, what price do you want?" ”

Ye Haodong stretched out two fingers, and Zhang Tianpeng answered, "Twenty million? Ye Haodong shook his head: "Two words, friend!" If we become friends in the future, we naturally can't talk about who is messing with whom. I'm afraid that I, the little boss, can't climb up to you, the young master of a red wealthy family. ”

Zhang Tianpeng's expression was a little emotional, but he quickly suppressed the emotion in his heart and regained his calm: "Haven't we always been friends?" ”

The two looked at each other and laughed, the laughter was very real, and they were moved by happiness and sympathy.

On May 25, 1996, Nong Junting gave birth to a boy in the intensive care property of the Shencheng Mother and Child Center. Mr. Nong Yifu personally named it: Nong Sihao. Ye Haodong, who was thousands of miles away, became a father in a daze. By the time he found out the truth, the child was already four years old.

Thousands of miles away, in the Sifangdian Prison in Gangcheng, the new prisoner Lin Muhuai was introducing Ye Haodong to the situation in Shiweizi, Xinjiang.

Lin Muhuai has a face that is fresh and scary enough for the whole city to look at it for half a year. The bottom of the pot is black, the bridge of the nose is collapsed, the nerve endings of the lower eyelids are necrotic, the eyelids droop uncontrollably, revealing most of the pupils, the blood red from the wind, the mouth that protrudes forward is full of big teeth, and the corners of the mouth are foaming and talking to Ye Haodong in the vernacular.

There are 23 local prisons in the West Xinjiang Autonomous Region, most of which were built in the 50s of the 20th century; Xijiang Prison is located in the Gobi Desert, and the natural conditions are generally harsh. Shiweizi Prison was founded in 54 years by the Eighth Division of the Agricultural Reclamation Construction Corps in Shiweizi City. Located in the depths of the desert, the whole prison is divided into five regions and ten detachments according to the prison area, the prison has strict internal control, complete prevention facilities, most of the management cadres come from the demobilized cadres of the veteran corps, and the atmosphere is harsh and the intensity of labor reform is high.

Ye Haodong was unhappy when he heard it, he felt bored, and refused He Kui's kind arrangement, and without waiting for Lin Muhuai to say enough, he directly asked him to get out. What's the matter, isn't this going to remove the fire for Lao Tzu?

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, summer is on, and the transfer of prison inmates in the Northeast is about to begin. The focus shifted in two directions, Qingyuan Province and Xijiang Autonomous Region. This time, a total of fifteen people were reported in the Sifang store, and He Kui also reported Ye Haodong, Ye Haodong noticed that the names of Jin Rongzhe and Ji Chenggang, the big names of the No. 4 courtyard in the published list, were impressively listed, and Poly Gang and Yang Junhu both saw Ye Haodong's name, and they also wanted to apply to accompany Ye Haodong to Western Xinjiang, but unfortunately they were not qualified to do anything.

One day in mid-August, Ye Haodong and the other 14 prisoners boarded a bus at the assembly site, said goodbye to their family, friends, and fellow inmates, and were taken by the bus to Niuxintuo Prison in the west of Fengcheng, where they were being greeted by felons from the three northeastern provinces and the Mongolian region. When all the prisoners are assembled, they will take the special train arranged by * to the Western Xinjiang Autonomous Region. On the square of Niuxintuo Prison, more than 800 prisoners met Ma Wanzhi, the commander-in-chief of the trip. I have a basic understanding of the procedures and rules of this escort.

At night, in the Niuxintuo Temporary Detention Management Center.

The protective measures have been raised to the highest level, and several companies take turns to stand guard, and the 81-type squad machine guns are erected at the commanding heights. On the high walls, armed police soldiers with guns and ammunition are stationed every five meters, and the courtyard illuminated by searchlights is bright. In the room, a room is crowded with sixteen big men, not to mention washing feet at night, and they don't even have the conditions to brush their teeth and wash their faces. The houses were full of people lying on the kang and concrete floors. Ye Haodong sat cross-legged on the kang, and the other people in the room were also scattered in all corners, and everyone couldn't sleep with apprehension, chatting.

The first step is inseparable from self-introduction, everyone has introduced themselves, and now it is a temporary detention, that is, a matter of one night, but there is no need to care about who is the first shop and the second shop, let alone distinguish what level, just sit there randomly, blowing nonsense in shifts.

A big man from the black province named Qian Baoshan opened first: "Tonight's food is good, I don't know what your previous prison ate like, I was originally in Shuangcheng Prison, the food there is unpalatable, I can't see a few times of meat throughout the year, not to mention, the nest is often steamed and undercooked, and it can be attached to the wall when thrown away, which is like this food tonight, there is still meat to eat, do you say that it is also this standard food when you go to Western Xinjiang in the future?" ”

The short man is very stout, and the 'little Sichuan' who is less than twenty takes over the conversation: "You melon baby, net total good things, now I give you some sweetness is to let you honestly don't talk nonsense, they will transport us to Xijiang to work without stopping, you still think that this food every day, you dare to think about it." ”

Gong Maoxiang, who is older and looks experienced with tattoos, nodded, looked like a person who came over, and took over the conversation: "That's right, this kind of food is to escort these days, you can eat more if you can eat more, and there will be no such good days when you get to the ground, the staple food is okay, mainly steamed buns, and they are called steamed buns over there, but there is no one to see when it is their turn." ”

Ye Haodong asked curiously, "Brother, have you been there?" ”

Gong Maoxiang: "I've been there twice, once in '85, again in '91 to crack down on local ruffians and villains, and last year I confiscated guns and ammunition and folded them in again, and this time I took the initiative to sign up to go." ”

Ye Haodong asked: "They all said that there is no end to the bitterness over there, why do you still take the initiative to go?" ”

Gong Maoxiang: "I want to be the same age as your brother, the ghost is willing to go, the hard work over there is hard, and the management is ruthless enough, but as long as you can do it, earn more points, and reduce the sentence quickly, brother, I am from a hard background, I have worked in the field from childhood to adulthood, it doesn't matter if I do more work and suffer more crimes, it is appropriate to go there." ”

Ye Haodong asked on behalf of the group: "You have been there before, tell us about the escort, for example, if someone makes trouble on the train, what will those soldiers do?" ”

Gong Maoxiang: "In a small area, there will be prison guards with the car to suppress it, and if it is a large group of people making trouble together, those soldiers will definitely shoot, and it is even possible to wipe out all the people in the carriage." ”

Ye Haodong asked in surprise: "Did you even ignore the police in the carriage?" ”

Gong Maoxiang: "In 85, a group of people went to Qingdao Province, and some people made a collective disturbance on the way, but the prison guards could not suppress the bullets, which alarmed the soldiers, and a company commander ordered a squad of soldiers to use machine guns to break through a carload of people on the spot. ”

Li Chenghao, a prisoner of the * clan in Ji Province, was incredulous: "Can it? How dare they do that? You brag about it. ”

Gong Maoxiang scoffed: "You little rice stick, how big the toad at the bottom of the well has seen, there are more unreasonable than this!" ”

Ye Haodong also felt that this was a bit mysterious, but he didn't express it directly. Everyone looked at Gong Maoxiang and waited for him to continue.

Gong Maoxiang: "Anything can happen along the way, the train is waiting for the Taoist class late, the supplies can't keep up with the prisoners making trouble, and the prisoners swallow contraband and commit suicide, anyway, it's lively, you will know when the time comes, but there is one thing, if any of you are in a carriage with Lao Tzu, you'd better not make trouble, so as not to cause everyone to eat peanuts." ”

The prison guard's angry scolding came from outside the door of the prison number: "It's all fucking full, what time is it and you don't sleep, what nonsense is there, shut up!" Go to bed with lights out. ”

Ye Haodong was lying on the kang with ups and downs and was so excited that he couldn't sleep, thinking about what Gong Maoxiang said, he felt that this road might not be peaceful, and he was looking forward to it when he thought about it.
