Chapter 7: Worship
Boss Liao clenched his fists, suppressed the anger in his chest, and after inviting this group of people into the private room, the depression in his chest continued to accumulate, and it seemed that he was about to explode. He walked around the lobby a few times, came to Wang Qiao, and said: "According to my temper back then, I would have already hacked these green-ass babies to death with a knife, but now that I am doing business, I can only swallow my anger." ”
Wang Qiao and Zhao Hai have been away from Jingzhou for many years, and both of them don't know much about the other side of Jingzhou society.
Zhao Haidao: "This group of people is five? ”
Boss Liao said: "Their group is from Shi'an Machinery Factory, and only that Bao Qiang is the fifth high." I don't know which string Bao Qiang's brain is wrong, so he went to No. 1 Middle School to read the repeat class. I'm sure he's going to be fired in less than two months. ”
Zhao Haidao: "There are still people in this group who are studying in the repeat class? ”
Wang Qiao said: "It's a science class, and I have a dormitory." He was very good in the dormitory, and except for a few students from Shi'an Factory, the other classmates didn't like him. ”
Zhao Hai wanted to go back to his hometown to engage in Sino-foreign joint ventures, and consciously understood the most real social side of Jingzhou, so he asked Boss Liao: "The gang just now are all from Shi'an Machinery Factory?" ”
Boss Liao said: "Their group has come to me many times, not only to eat and drink for nothing, but also to collect protection money. The leader Liu Jianchang was a worker who was fired from the Shi'an Machinery Factory, he used to follow Brother Hu, and then the Shi'an Machinery Factory went bankrupt, and some young workers followed him out to mix in society. Bao Qiang is a small follower, and he comes to order food every time. When he said this, he suddenly lost his mind, and said: "These green-ass babies carry machetes with them, and they never know the severity of their hands, and many big brothers who have been famous for a long time have been cut to the ground, Liao San is a famous person in Jingzhou, and he was blocked in the billiard room by a group of people, and his palms were cut off. They were so vicious that they threw their severed palms into the toilet, so that Liao San had no chance to go to the hospital to continue. ”
Zhao Hai observed his words and saw that he was quite compassionate, and said, "You are Liao San's relative?" ”
Boss Liao said: "Speaking of which, we can be regarded as relatives, we are from the northwest street, and a large number of people are surnamed Liao." In the past, I also liked to run in society, and at that time I also talked about morality. Now these people only talk about money, there are no rules at all, and they do everything. ”
Wang Qiao quietly listened to Zhao Hai and Boss Liao talk about the changes in Jingzhou, and did not say much. The No. 3 Detention Center in Quang Nam gathers the most vicious, cunning, and insidious criminal suspects in the province, and if he can gain a firm foothold in such a place, he naturally has confidence in his chest and is not afraid of the young people of Jingzhou.
was talking, and when he heard a "bang", he threw down a porcelain bowl from the second floor and almost hit Zhao Hai's car parked outside.
"It's so rampant, we can't afford to be a small businessman. I'm going to send a cigarette so as not to smash my shop. Boss Liao looked at another bowl thrown down, and his expression was gloomy.
Originally, the two wanted to talk quietly, but when they met this group of lawless young people, their chatting mood was ruined. Zhao Hai looked at the broken bowl on the ground and said: "There is a sunny side and a dark side in society, and whoever is entangled with the dark side will have a dark life." Therefore, we must choose the industry when doing things, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and try to minimize contact with these social bottoms. It's just that sometimes you can't choose, but when you can, you must be with the sun. ”
Wang Qiao said with deep sympathy: "I have tasted the taste of the detention center, I never want to go in again in my life, and the choice to study is directly related to the experience of the detention center." ”
A pot of delicious roast chicken is enough for five or six people to eat, Zhao Hai and Wang Qiao have good appetites, and they throw off their arms and work hard. After eating and drinking, Wang Qiao wiped his grease mouth and returned to the repeater class classroom in Zhao Hai's car.
When I got off the bus, it happened to be the evening self-study bell ringing. The three-story dormitory building is like a mountain that can swallow monsters, squirting countless tired young people out of the dormitory and throwing them into the classroom. Students studying in repeat classes are generally under tremendous psychological pressure, and the second thing is that face is secondary, and the more important thing is anxiety about the future. The students' expressions were generally gloomy, and when they converged, the air seemed to weave a great web of sorrow.
Zhao Hai has been an honor student since he was a child, and he has a smooth journey, and at this time he is sitting in the car and figuring out the mentality of repeaters, but he can only understand his skin, and it is difficult to truly experience the anxiety, despair, and sadness in his heart.
When Wang Qiao's back disappeared, he turned around and drove out of the east side door.
When passing by the Roast Chicken Restaurant, I found many shards of glass and porcelain on the road, which threatened pedestrians and vehicles with sharp edges and corners.
Zhao Hai felt that the familiar Jingzhou City was becoming more and more unfamiliar, and the few young people from Shi'an Machinery Factory who broke into the restaurant left a deep impression on him, although it was only a few minutes, but it was deeply fixed in his mind. On the contrary, he strengthened his determination to open a joint venture factory in Jingzhou: "Shi'an Machinery Factory is a municipal state-owned machinery factory that has been established for more than 30 years, and has accumulated a large number of experienced technicians, which is the most valuable wealth. As for the issue of social security, it is just scabies for the joint venture factory. ”
No sooner had the car passed than another beer bottle was thrown out of the window room on the second floor.
The table was piled with chicken bones, and beer and liquor bottles were staggering on the floor. The aroma of the roasted chicken in a large pot is steaming, mixed with wine and smoke, creating an indulgent taste.
"The foreskin actually has to go to a repeat class, which makes people laugh out of their big teeth."
"What kind of dog ** book to read, can you afford to get into college? The most ridiculous thing is that you still live in a dormitory with a rural baby, and you become rustic. ”
Bao Qiang propped one arm on the table, and poured a small glass of beer into his stomach with the other hand, listening to the ridicule of his companions, his already dark face became even darker, and said: "My mother forced me to come to the repeat class, which dog wants to study." ”
Bao Qiang's reason is strong, and no one laughs at him anymore. Bao Qiang's mother's name is Xie Anfen, and she used to be a famous model worker of Shi'an Machinery Factory. There is a special reason for this award. On a summer night when the temperature was close to 40 degrees in 82, Xie Anfen was so hot that he couldn't sleep, and he was reluctant to use the electricity at home when he turned on the fan, so he went to the workshop to enjoy the fan of public appliances. Blowing the fan of public appliances, Xie Anfen no longer felt sorry for the electricity bill, and soon fell asleep. Three thieves came to the workshop to steal the coils, making a strange noise. Xie Anfen's style was so strong that after he was woken up, he didn't care that the other party was all men, and yelled, scaring the thief into embarrassment and fleeing.
It stands to reason that Xie Anfen has achieved the purpose of protecting the facilities and equipment of the factory, but she has simple working-class feelings in her chest, and the workers occasionally go home with a little thing in the factory, which is from the left hand to the right hand, and the internal housework is considered natural by everyone. It is absolutely not okay for outsiders to steal, it is property damage. Xie Anfen pounced on a person like a tiger descending the mountain, and the girls who had been working in the factory for a long time had great strength, and the man was pressed to the ground and couldn't move. The other two escaped thieves returned, stabbed them with knives.
After Xie Anfen was stabbed three times, he was fearless, picked up the steel bar from the ground, and stretched out his claws like a red-eyed she-wolf, and slashed at the three men.
The three men didn't expect the girls to be so tough, and they were beaten and fled in embarrassment in the factory. Upon hearing the news, the workers wrapped the three unlucky thieves in dumplings, and Xie Anfen became a hero who bravely defended the factory's property, and was subsequently named a model worker.
The six people at the table were all children of Shi'an Machinery Factory, and everyone remembered Xie Anfen's wide figure and strong style, and they all looked at Bao Qiang with sympathy and understanding.
Shi'an Machinery Factory reached the peak of its career in the 80s, and it became popular for a while, occupying a large area of Jingzhou Yinglong Street. In the 90s, Shi'an Machinery Factory was like an inflatable leather ball that was pierced in the eye and quickly deflated. Bao Qiang's group of people happened to experience the whole process of Shi'an Machinery Factory from glory to decline.
No one thought that an enterprise lying on Yinglong Avenue would easily collapse, and the thousands of worker cadres who had fought for it would turn from proud workers' big brothers into unemployed people with food and clothing. Such a drastic change has had a strong impact on the psychology of the young workers who grew up in the Shi'an factory.
Liu Jianchang spit a chicken bone on the ground with a "poof" and said, "Foreskin, if you really don't want to study, take the initiative to take the first place in the class a few times, your mother can't see hope, and she won't let you continue to repeat." He was four years older than Bao Qiang, and he entered the factory after finishing junior high school, and when Bao Qiang graduated from No. 5 Middle School, he had been mixed in society for several years and was a little brother-level figure.
Bao Qiang took a sip of beer and said: "There is a strange person in our dormitory, who reads with a flashlight every night. ”
When he wanted to pour beer again, Liu Jianchang said: "The foreskin is not allowed to drink, you baby will completely lose his mind after drinking two more glasses, and he can't greet him at all." If you hear it, you are not allowed to drink it. He saw that there was no meat or vegetables in the pot, and said, "Foreskin, you go and yell a few times, and ask Boss Liao to order the whole dish again." These local bosses are very snobbish, and if you smile at him a few more times, he won't know how many catties and taels he has. ”
Under the control of Liu Jianchang, Bao Qiang only drank two small glasses of beer, but the alcohol was already on the rise. He went downstairs and yelled, "Boss Liao, come over again, my brothers have drunk a few wines." ”
Boss Liao's eyes and eyebrows were wrinkled, and he the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of several people upstairs in his heart, but he didn't dare to slack off in words and actions, and said: "If you want it, it will be cooked in a few minutes, and I will serve it to you when the time comes." A few minutes later, he brought up a pot of roast chicken, spitting into it as he walked. When he entered the house, when he smoked, he looked at the smashed wall on the wall, his heart ached, and he secretly said, "I'm too stupid, I should get some snot in it." Only eat saliva, too cheap for these few people. ”
Liu Jianchang patted Boss Liao's shoulder in the style of a big brother and said: "Boss Liao is upright, tell our brothers if you encounter anything in the future, and definitely help you tie it up." ”
Boss Liao drank two glasses of wine and left with a wry smile.
After the third round of drinking, Liu Jianchang flicked the cigarette butt into the air and said, "Brother Hu talked to me a few times, let us go to see the scene, do you say you want to go?" ”
Ma Face is a particularly stocky young man, he has a similar experience to Liu Jianchang, graduated from junior high school and entered a technical school, graduated from a technical school and entered the factory, and was a serious workshop worker before going bankrupt. Alcohol on the back of his head, his guts were particularly fat, and he said: "Phew, what Brother Hu, I don't ** him, just a local farmer who entered the factory as a temporary worker, and the chicken foot snake wears glasses and is full of righteousness." If you want to mix, a few of us will mix, and don't be a little brother to others. ”
Brother Hu is a famous big brother on Jingzhou Road, and he has been prosperous in recent years.
When Shi'an Machinery Factory was popular, he worked as a temporary worker in the factory through the relationship of his father, the village party secretary. Later, he was fired from the factory because his hands and feet were not clean. Now the Shi'an Machinery Factory is in decline, but the pride of the workers' big brother still flows in the factory's descendants, who look down on the other half of the workers' and peasants' alliance from the bottom of their hearts.
Liu Jianchang made his debut among several people, and he was the most thoughtful, and said: "Don't look at people with old eyes, you think you are a worker's child and look down on farmers." Brother Hu has long been mixed up, and Shibei should be impressed on the third day, he is no longer a temporary worker in the Shi'an factory back then. If we want to gain a foothold in Jingzhou society, we must follow Brother Hu, but we don't have to show him the scene for a long time. If we want not to be bullied, we have to hold a group, and the group is not like now, we have to eat and drink together, we have to drink blood and wine, and worship brothers, so that we can form a force. Whether you are willing or not, whether you want or not, when I don't say it, I swear poison if I am willing. ”
Most young people have a cavity of blood, which can be used on the right path to attack cities and villages, and when used on the evil path, it will harm the Quartet. Fortunately, today's social competition is fierce, and the blood of youth has been consumed through countless exams in school, and the excess energy is eliminated by going out of society with a torturous workplace, and only young people like Liu Jianchang and Ma Mian who have lost or are about to lose control will become an alien force that destroys the social order.
He closed the door, poured a bowl of liquor, and took out his knives.
All six of them carried knives on their backs, including machetes, switchblades, and homemade daggers, the most powerful of which was the homemade dagger with a hemp face. Ma Yan was born in the workshop and grew up in the factory, he liked to play with machinery since he was a child, and he used good steel bars to grind daggers, which were extremely sharp.
Passionately, they cut a cut in their fingers and fell into the bowl with drops of blood.
Drinking blood wine, worshiping brothers, these two things have long been thought, but today it is a temporary idea, Liu Jianchang did not think of any ceremony, according to the plot of movies and television, according to the plot of the cat and the tiger, when drinking, read: "Forever brothers, live and die together, share blessings and hardships, if you rebel, three knives and six holes." ”
Although this paragraph of worship is nondescript, it is in line with the comprehension ability of Liu Jianchang and others, and summarizes all the thoughts in their hearts. Liu Jianchang was known as a prodigy in the factory when he was a child, and he was good at arithmetic and composition, and then the prodigy gradually faded and became a social member who was disgusted by people. At this time, drinking wine, he showed the demeanor of an hour prodigy.
