The prisoner in the northern prison called Dana has to be called a chory here, and it is the prisoner who wears a prison uniform with an extra red hoop on his arm. The miscellaneous prisoner of the first squadron is called Lu Tianming, a native of Yanjing, a mouthful of Beijing films, and he can speak vernacular. As soon as I entered the room, I asked arrogantly, "Has the team leader been elected?" ”

Ye Haodong stood up and raised his hand: "Yes!" ”

Lu Tianming looked at Ye Haodong, a little surprised by his youth, and asked, "What's it called?" How old is it? ”

Ye Haodong: "Ye Haodong, nineteen years old." ”

Lu Tianming walked over and sat on the bed, signaling everyone to relax: "It's okay, it's all buddies, it's not easy to go out, buddies are from here, those who can help you definitely won't look at the excitement, let's just talk a few words." ”

Everyone didn't speak, their eyes glancing at Ye Haodong.

When Ye Haodong took out a Hongta Mountain that Gao Wei specially bought for him when he got out of the car, he took out a box from it and threw it to Lu Tianming: "I was about to ask you for advice, the cigarette is not good, take it and smoke it." ”

Lu Tianming was a little surprised by the prestige of this young man in this room and the magnanimity of his shots, cigarettes are not absolutely forbidden in the trumpet, but cigarettes of this level in Hongta Mountain are very rare. Lu Tianming took it in his hand and turned it upside down, looked around, and said casually: "Heh, my brother has enough to cover the field, and the smoke is enough, but believe my brother's words, don't show your wealth casually, the people here haven't seen any big characters, you have a big method, and if you feed those thunders and get used to it, it will be difficult for others to get ahead, and you will be hated by people when the time comes." ”

Ye Haodong smiled: "Thank you brother for mentioning it, I will pay attention." ”

Lu Tianming had already glanced at Ye Haodong at this time, and felt that this young man was not simple, he had heard of Wang Yijun, the old cannon in this room, and thought that the leader of this group was none other than Wang Yijun, but he didn't expect to come in and see that Wang Yijun had already been cleaned up by this young man.

Lu Tianming clenched his fists and got up to say goodbye: "That's it, brother, brother will go first, I have to go to other groups to ask, it's okay at night, let's talk again." ”

Ye Haodong also got up: "I'll send you." "Everyone else followed. Lu Tianming turned around and shouted: "Stay, stay." "I was smiling all over my face as I left.

Before Lu Tianming went out, he suddenly bit his ear and whispered to Ye Haodong, who was sent out: "Beware of the big chores here Gu Mingchen, that is a master who eats people and does not spit out bones." ”

At lunchtime, Ye Haodong saw this big sundry that eats people and doesn't spit out bones, Gu Mingchen. A great guy in his thirties, with arrogance and mania written on his face. The prisoners who stood there shouting and scolding the prisoners: "Listen to the fuck, we know each other today, my name is Gu Mingchen, the big chores here, how much to eat in the future, don't queue up, you must clean up the table after eating, don't leave anything left, don't talk during eating, in short, these messy things are all under my control, I just have one word to you guys, don't fucking embarrass me, the squadron is in trouble with me, I promise that none of you will want to stop." ”

Ji Chenggang said in a low voice: "This dog 1 is crazy enough. ”

Ye Haodong glanced at Gu Mingchen, shook his head, and didn't speak. The most complicated thing in this world is people, and people who have not been in contact with it are not easy to draw conclusions.

Ye Haodong had no intention of provoking Gu Mingchen, but the big handyman quickly found him.

Although Ye Haodong and his squadron are called the cotton factory squadron, in fact, the work on the brick factory side is not less, and the work on both sides has a certain seasonality.

The foundation was dug on the side of the brick factory for a week, and the factory building was built for more than half a month. At present, sowing is mechanized, and the seedlings, field management, watering, and harvesting are all manual, and the tiredness of manual picking is indescribable. Wang Yijun and Ye Haodong have already been familiar with each other, Ye Haodong is generous, he never cares about food on weekdays, he has a big ability, and even has a way to work than others, the workload of other groups in a day can be completed in half a day according to Ye Haodong's method, and it has been less than two months since he came here, and the work of their group is far ahead of other groups. Even if you rush to this, Wang Yijun is also willing to listen to Ye Haodong willingly. When he is idle, Wang Yijun will talk to Ye Haodong for a while, and try to get closer to each other as much as possible. Ye Haodong asked him strangely which of the four major tirednesses, and what he said was very interesting: feeding the children, and the big billet, picking up cotton on the mountain.

Ye Haodong, the captain of their team, is a second-generation corps named Luo Sibao, a very honest young man, approachable and really kind to speak, but he is especially afraid of Wang Fang, the logistics administrator, who is that little tiger tooth.

The team leader and below are the chores, and the most domineering of them is naturally none other than the big chores Gu Mingchen.

After the end of the day, Ye Haodong chatted indoors with his fellow inmates. Everyone is tired for a day, and now they are all relaxed and lying on the bed and straightening their waists, bowing their heads in the cotton field for a long time, and being able to lie down for a while at this time is the greatest happiness of childhood. Under normal circumstances, correctional cadres will not disturb everyone at this time. The door opened, Gu Mingchen walked in from the outside with square steps, and as soon as he entered the door, he went straight to Jin Rongzhe without saying a word, and he had a big mouth when he went up.

Jin Rongzhe turned over and fell to the ground, and without saying a word, he scuffled with Gu Mingchen. Jin Rongzhe is a Xian people, usually not much talk, but very righteous and has the courage to die, he and his sister smuggled from the * side, and then was deceived, and his sister was separated, Jin Rongzhe went through a lot of hard work to find the relative who deceived them, but the grandson said that he had sold his sister, Jin Rongzhe stabbed the bastard more than ten times in a rage, he didn't know that the person didn't die later, he thought he was greedy for life, and he would definitely be unable to escape death, so he went out and joined a robbery gang, During a bank robbery, he met his sister, who had been separated for a long time, and in order to protect her, he stopped his accomplices from kidnapping the hostages, which led to a lenient sentence from the court, which was given a suspended death sentence, which has now been commuted to life. From his past experience, it is not difficult to see that this is a master who dares to play with his life, and Gu Mingchen's casual slapping of his mouth is enough for him to fight with his life and not give in.

Ye Haodong rushed over, not pulling the frame. He kicked Gu Mingchen, who was pressed on top of Jin Rongzhe, and scolded in his mouth: "Dog, I came here to go wild, I usually don't like to take care of you, you really think of yourself as a character, and you dare to touch Lao Tzu without asking." ”

Facing Ye Haodong, Gu Mingchen wisely chose to retreat temporarily, he glared at Ye Haodong viciously and retreated. It was clear that the purpose of his temporary retreat was to advance in greater strides. Before dinner, this incident had already alarmed the team cadres, and Luo Sibao walked into the fifth group of cells of the cotton factory squadron with a lawsuit on his face, followed by Gu Mingchen.

Luo Sibao asked angrily: "Why do you do chores Gu Mingchen?" Don't you know if he is the person selected by the squadron to cooperate with the cadres to manage you? ”

Ye Haodong grinned: "Who beat him?" We? I was just about to ask you to complain, this Gu Mingchen beat Jin Rongzhe of our group as soon as he entered the door, and we just stepped forward to stop him just now. ”

Luo Sibao glanced at Gu Mingchen and asked, "Is what he said the truth?" ”

Gu Mingchen angrily grabbed the white: "Report to Team Luo, Ye Haodong lied, it was obviously he who came up and kicked me just now, I thought that I couldn't destroy the discipline of transformation, so I didn't fight back, and reported it to you in time." ”

Luo Sibao looked at Ye Haodong again, and didn't speak, what do you mean?

Ye Haodong asked Gu Mingchen unhurriedly: "Tell me why I kicked you, what was the situation at that time?" ”

Gu Mingchen: "I have already held down Jin Rongzhe, and your kid came up and kicked me in the back." ”

Ye Haodong laughed: "It's still true, you pressed Jin Rongzhe to carry out an illegal beating, shouldn't I, as the leader of the fifth group, stop you in time?" ”

Luo Sibao was impatient to listen to the two of them fighting, and asked Gu Mingchen: "Why are you fighting Jin Rongzhe?" ”

Gu Mingchen said hatefully: "That kid stole a braided chili pepper in the kitchen during dinner yesterday, I asked him this morning, and he dared to lie to me, and I found it from under the table where the five of them ate in the afternoon." ”

Luo Sibao didn't say anything, Ye Haodong's heart and eyes opened when he heard him speak, and he hurriedly replied: "I asked him to take the braided pepper, and the squadron leader nodded in this matter." ”

In one sentence, Gu Mingchen's hair changed color, and Luo Sibao looked at Ye Haodong suspiciously: "What you said is true?" Don't talk nonsense for your brother, when it comes to the squadron leader, if you don't have that, you'll be in vain for the first two months. ”

Ye Haodong nodded affirmatively: "Of course, how dare I lie to you, isn't deceiving you just deceiving the government." ”

He Ruoqiu's first reaction when he heard about this incident was annoyance, but he quickly suppressed the fire. He still has an impression of Ye Haodong, and remembers that he was a very smart and stable teenager. Motivated, competent, and very polite and sensible. Facing Luo Sibao, he didn't say it immediately, but told Luo Sibao to ask Ye Haodong to come to the squadron headquarters.

This is a conversation that will have a huge impact on Ye Haodong and He Ruoqiu in the next three years. Three years later, Ye Haodong was released from prison, and He Ruoqiu was promoted to the political commissar of the fifth prison district of Shiweizi Prison. At this moment, neither of them could have imagined that this conversation would mean much to each other.

He Ruoqiu sat behind his desk, smoking a cigarette. Ye Haodong stood in front of the table, the two looked at each other, and Ye Haodong looked at He Ruoqiu calmly.

He Ruoqiu slapped the table violently: "Ye Haodong!" Do you know what this place is? You lie and dare to use me as a shield, are you planning to stay here for the rest of your life? ”

Ye Haodong answered the question with a sincere attitude: "Team He, it's not been a day and a half since I came, what do you think of my attitude towards transformation?" ”

He Ruoqiu rolled his eyes and glanced at him, and snorted: "If it weren't for your kid's positive attitude towards transformation, and you have done a lot of work, I would still be able to sit here and talk to you?" ”
