Early in the morning, in the waiting hall of the town bus station, there are not many passengers who enter the city early, and more than a dozen people sit scattered on the red plastic waiting chairs in the hall, or look around, or brace their cheeks and meditate.

Four or five long-distance buses going to the county seat, urban area, provincial capital or other provinces and cities were parked in the parking lot of less than 500 square meters behind the waiting room, and the darkness of the early morning was gradually diluted by the white of the sky, and the night was like burned grass ash taken out of the stove in the countryside.

The inside of the bus was lit up with a dim fluorescent light, and the drivers were making the most preparations before departure in their respective cars.

When Zheng Weimin and Xu Lin arrived, the bus to Qintang City was starting to warm up, Zheng Weimin hurriedly went to the window to buy a ticket, and then took Xu Lin's hand and got on the bus directly.

There were already four or five passengers in the car, some holding white plastic film bags, eating, fried onion cakes or small steamed buns that they had just bought from the breakfast shop.

Some are sorting out the salutes they have brought, some are poking their heads out of the window, constantly patrolling back and forth, as if they are observing, and as if they are looking for something, a young woman took out a small mirror and took advantage of the thin light to apply lipstick, Zheng Weimin reached into the leather shoulder bag and touched it, there were 8,000 yuan in it, lying silently in the leather bag, he felt a lot more at ease.

Thinking of the money in the bag, Zheng Weimin shook his head helplessly, unconsciously thinking of his current embarrassing situation, since he changed jobs, he felt that he had to use money everywhere, and the money was spent quickly, plus he was generous, and he regarded money as dirt, so he didn't have any savings, and he didn't feel a little tight on hand.

Thinking that in the past, the food, drink, and clothing in the army were all from the state, and the salary was still much higher than that of ordinary white-collar workers in the locality, and he was on duty and stationed in training all the year round, and there were few places to spend his own money.

Even if he is for his sister to go to school, he still has 40,000 or 50,000 yuan saved, so it can be said that he has never worried about money.

Now, when I transferred to Yuling Township, I learned that the grassroots level of Ludao Township had low wages and poor treatment, and when I used to go home to visit relatives in the army, I heard my classmates who taught in the countryside talk about this, but at that time, I just listened to it and didn't pay attention to it.

But he transferred to Yuling Town, but this reality was vividly placed in front of him, Zheng Weimin gradually saw the difficulty and cruelty of reality, and truly realized that money is not everything, but no money is absolutely impossible, the profound meaning of this sentence.

Thinking that a demobilized military cadre like himself who has no background and poor family conditions wants to mix well in the officialdom, it is really quite difficult, and this is not something that can be achieved just by lip service.

Material is the cornerstone of career and love, and it is really difficult to move an inch without money, Zheng Weimin decided to give up the previous Qinggao, and find a way to earn the first pot of gold first and enrich his pocket.

Thinking that the day before yesterday, when he was a company commander in the army, one of his soldiers had been discharged from the army and was now working as a bodyguard for hundreds of millions of bosses, and called him again, saying that he now had a business of assassinating the leader of the drug lord, and the other party was willing to invest two million, and he and another soldier could not get out of being bodyguards for the boss, so he thought of the old company commander Zheng Weimin and asked himself if he could take it.

It is said that the client will pay 200,000 yuan in advance as the activity fund, and the remaining 1.8 million yuan will be settled at one time after the matter is completed, and if he is willing, he will reply to the other party within ten days.

Zheng Weimin had cooperated with the local public security to arrest drug leaders in the army before, although it was not the first time he had done such a thing, but it was the first time that he had done private work.

Thinking that he is a cadre of the town government after all, it is better to be cautious, in case it is known that the word of the road is not good, and the impact is not good, he is thinking about this matter in the past few days, and his heart has been in a contradiction, and he has not made up his mind for the time being.

Thinking about going to the city today, let the mood relax and then say, the next must be to take over, I have to consider the consequences of all aspects, and then, I have to have a specific implementation plan, and strive to complete the task in the shortest possible time, and eliminate all possible negative impacts on myself.

The details of this plan will be conceived by myself while playing in the city, and the specific formulation will be said after returning from the city today, and then I will use one night's time to complete it in one go, and then revise it several times, and then begin to implement it after the plan is mature.

Zheng Weimin thought that there were a lot of things to do today, and he couldn't help but feel a little anxious, he raised his hand bowl and looked at his watch, it was already half past six in the morning, and seeing that the car had not started yet, he said to the driver who was sitting in the cab smoking, Cui: "Master, it's time, why don't you leave?" ”

Seeing Zheng Weimin calling the master, the driver looked a little unhappy, glanced at Zheng Weimin, too lazy to take care of him, seeing that Zheng Weimin's face was a little embarrassed, Xu Lin hurriedly fell on Zheng Weimin's ear, bent a small horn with his hand, covered his mouth, and quietly reminded: "For the people, you are really old-fashioned, this era is not as good as before, people's hearts are very empty, you should call the driver the boss, people are interested in paying attention to you." ”

Zheng Weimin smiled and shouted again: "Alas, boss, isn't this enough?" Why don't you leave, we're still in a hurry. ”

The driver looked about thirty years old, tall and big, with long hair and a shawl, and a thick necklace around his neck, looking very domineering, seeing Zheng Weimin asking again, he was a little impatient, turned his head and glanced at Zheng Weimin, and sneered: "I said why are you so much in a hurry, what is the hurry, people get in the car, and they are afraid that they will not be able to reach Qin Tang, and wait for this cigarette to finish." The driver's tone had the taste of training, and Zheng Weimin was very uncomfortable listening to it.

After the driver finished speaking, he continued to take a sip slowly, looking very enjoyable, Zheng Weimin saw that the driver's quality was not high, and he wanted to talk to him, Xu Lin quickly pulled his arm and persuaded in a low voice: "For the people, say a few words, what do you care about him." ”

Xu Lin's words seemed to be heard by the driver, and a sentence that stimulated Zheng Weimin's nerves even more came from the driver's mouth into his eardrums: "If you want to be fast, why do you want to take the bus quickly, buy a car by yourself." ”
