Someone is somewhere.

The voice came from the direction of two o'clock on Lee Road.

After pulling it quickly, Li Lu quickly wiped his buttocks and lifted his pants, and then bent his waist and touched the source of the sound lightly. At this time, it is the season when sugarcane is ripe, and those who steal sugarcane appear every once in a while, and every household is strictly guarded, and some people even camp directly in the fields.

Which bastard has the guts to be so fat, stealing sugar cane and stealing it to Lao Tzu's brothers.

Li Lu planned to catch the thief and give him a good look. It wasn't at all like that, he was mistaken. The moonlight is very good, and it is faintly visible through the not very dense sugarcane leaves.

In the faint moonlight, the man was breathing heavily, the woman was lying on a pile of dried sugar cane leaves, her blouse was pulled up to her neck, her towering breasts and flat lower abdomen, her whole body was trembling up and down under the man's impact, the woman covered her mouth with one hand, and grabbed the man's arm with the other.

The woman's figure is perfect, that curve.

Isn't that the woman who sells tofu in the east of the village?

Li Lu was stunned, and the whole person was dumbfounded. This is 1981, and it turns out that some of the scenes on TV and movies are based on real evidence!

Hey, this pair of men and women's X life concept is too advanced!

Yang Qingsong was waiting outside, and Li Lu came out and asked, "Whose wife is here to sell tofu flowers in the east of the village?" ”

"Wu Dalang's." Yang Qingsong said with a look of pity and resentment, "He-milk-milk-, that kid from Wu Dalang doesn't know what shit luck he had, he begged for such a beautiful wife, and he was hardworking and willing to work." ”

Li Lu remembered that the man was Wu Dalang, surnamed Wu, but it was not the appearance of Wu Dalang in the Water Margin, the guy called Wu Jie was strong and strong in this era of undernutrition, and he was already tall, and he was also a beautiful man within a radius of ten miles.

Judging from the appearance, it is quite a match.

But Wu Jie is a notorious second-rate son, who has done a lot of things like stealing chickens and touching dogs, and has done business in private before, and has been treated as a typical example of speculation. Now that the market is open, he doesn't do it, and relies on his wife Pan Yan to sell tofu to survive.

Yang Qingsong suddenly remembered and said, "Have you forgotten tofu Shih? When I was a child, I peeked at her taking a bath. ”

Li Lu was dazed, shook his head and didn't talk.

Putting this little episode behind, Li Lu and Yang Qingsong walked back. In the countryside, everyone goes to bed early, but today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and basically every household is still lit up. Because it is a district brigade, electric lights are used, and large areas of rural areas at the grassroots level are still without electricity at this time.

Yang Qingsong suddenly lowered his voice and said, "That kid Wu Jie doesn't know what kind of wealth he has made recently, the TV and sewing machines are all used, and his family is about to become a movie team, so it's very exciting." ”

"Oh? You can't steal it from anywhere, can you? Li Lu preconceived of the main way.

Shaking his head, Yang Qingsong said, "This is not it, the supply and marketing cooperatives bought it, and I saw the bill." I don't know where he got the TV ticket. ”

"It's a little strange, it stands to reason that you can't make a lot of money selling tofu." Li Lu said.

Yang Qingsong's voice was lowered, and he said, "I heard that he is now smuggling with people......

In the darkness, Li Lu suddenly stopped.

"Smuggling?"

Yang Qingsong said in a calm voice, "Well, what are you pouring machinery from Qionghai to our side." I've also heard about it, but looking at Wu Jie's sudden appearance, it doesn't look like a fake. I know that kid, but if you have a lot of money, you can't wait to get the brigade to broadcast. ”

Fragments of related memories burst out of his mind, and Li Lu fell into deep thought.

It was really a beautiful era, in fact, from the moment he saw the seized smuggling cars, Li Lu realized that before order was established, whoever was bold enough would be able to catch the biggest and most fish from this wave. Li Lu had already had this idea, but he wasn't sure if it had already started.

If Wu Jie is really smuggling with others, then it means that this wave has begun to land.

Thinking of the smuggled off-road vehicles that were seized, it is already certain that these things are happening.

"You quietly look into this matter." Li Lu made a decision in his heart and ordered Yang Qingsong in a low voice.

Yang Qingsong nodded, "Do you want to denounce him?" ”

"What do you think, after you find out, how to do it." Li Lu smiled coldly, "If you have money, everyone will earn it together, and no one will take care of it if you report it." ”

"Let's go back."

Yang Qingsong went back, Li Lu didn't go home, but turned back and quietly slipped into the place where he was, and the two were still there.

Wu Jie got up and got dressed, looked around, and gasped. Pan Yan also hurriedly got up, hurriedly got dressed, carefully cleaned up the sugarcane leaves on her clothes, and whispered dissatisfiedly, "This makes people look at me and I can't live......

"Stop talking nonsense." Wu Jie whispered, "I have to leave in the middle of the night." ”

Pan Yan took his arm and asked, "What are you doing, I'm not sure about so much money." ”

"A lot of money is not practical? You're the poor ghost. ”

"I'm worried, tell me what the hell are you doing?" Pan Yan became nervous, she knew her husband too well.

Wu Jie hesitated for a moment, and said in a suppressed voice, "I'll help people resell some materials and earn some hard money." ”

"Buy, sell!" Pan Yan gasped, "You can't go!" ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Wu Jie's arm.

In these years, buying and selling, speculating and flipping are all things that the people talk about. It was a few years ago that I was hit hard. It would be strange if Pan Yan was not nervous.

"Rare and weird. You look at the people in the city, you see what they're doing. Starve the faint-hearted and support the bold. Alright, don't delay me in a big deal. Wu Jie shook off Pan Yan and walked out of the sugarcane forest with his waist bent.

In the dark, Li Lu listened to Pan Yan's sigh getting farther and farther away until it disappeared, and thought about it. Li Lu didn't feel unbright at all. In his previous life, he was engaged in intelligence work, and what he did was something that could not be seen in the light. As long as it is conducive to achieving the goal, he will take any measure to a certain extent.

After a little thought, Li Lu decided to follow Wu Jie.

There are many ways to quickly accumulate funds, standing on the tide of reform and opening up, everyone is still in a state of confusion at this time, Li Lu is the only person who thinks clearly, so it can probably be said that he has more than a thousand ways to make money, and make money quickly.

But at the same time, it can make the Red Star Machinery Factory develop rapidly, and there is only one best opportunity now - to participate in the large-scale smuggling activities that have begun.

Before the Third Plenary Session of the 11 th CPC Central Committee, the great man named more than a dozen cities in one breath and said that this coastal city could be opened up one step ahead. Among them is the dry port. Specifically in the inland port area, rampant smuggling activities have become the most obvious label, mainly concentrated in automobiles, refined oil, edible sugar, and light industrial machinery.

Li Lu is interested in the former and the latter, which is also the biggest benefit he can obtain at the lowest cost.

Li Lu squatted in the sugarcane forest at the east end of the village, staring at Wu Jie's house, waiting for him to come out with peace of mind. The sudden slight rustling sound made Li Lu's hair explode, his eyes swept to the left wing, staring at the location where the voice came, and his right hand was already holding the three-edged military thorn on his waist.

"It's me."

A very low voice came.

"The third."

The person who came approached slowly, and at this time Li Lu had already let down his guard. The person who came was Uncle Ergou, and at this time, he and the brigade cowherd who made a living by picking up cow dung and collecting work were like two people, and his eyes flashed with shrewdness and wisdom.

"Uncle Nine." Li Lu talked to him in a low voice, very incomprehensible, "You ......"

Tang Jiu interrupted Li Lu's words, "I have already figured out Wu Jie's situation, I'll go with you." ”

Li Lu had to ask, "The ban has been lifted?" Can you get out of the mountain? ”

"Hiding in the shadows won't help you much. The day you become an adult is when I Tang Jiu comes out of the mountain, this is the chief's order. Tang Jiudao.

Li Lu was in a surging mood, although his grandfather's whereabouts were unknown, the arrangements he made back then were still his greatest help. Tang Jiu has been incognito in Baixing Village for more than ten years, and he was ordered by the old man back then. Tang Jiu is the old man's guard, he has followed him for more than 20 years, and he is now in his forties.

Tang Jiu's existence, even Li Guoguang and his wife didn't know, they only knew that Tang Jiu was an outsider, who made a living by picking up cow dung to earn work, and his brain was not very bright, and he was often bullied by children. I would never have imagined that this was a veritable senior army staff officer.

His mouth opened, Li Lu wanted to ask about his grandfather's situation, but he knew that Tang Jiu, like himself, had no news. After so many years, the old man whose life and death are unknown has always been a knot that everyone does not want to touch.

"Don't wait, come with me."

Tang Jiu gently patted Li Lu's shoulder, turned around and went out. Li Lu came to his senses and followed.

At night in the 80s, there was no nightlife at all, especially in the countryside, only wives could play, and those who didn't have wives could go to bed early and handjob before they could. At seven or eight o'clock, it was already silent, and some families turned off the lights early to go to bed, even on Chinese New Year's Eve.

Walking along the path in the field, you can hear the cries of unknown insects, and despite the winter, the temperature in the dry port area is not very low, and only occasionally a cold wind pours into your neck to feel a hint of cold.

Passing through several seaside villages, Li Lu once again felt the poverty of this era. It's only four or five kilometers from the city, but there is no electricity in the village here. Villages further afield can be imagined. As a dry port with one of the world's rare natural bay ports, it is hard to imagine being so poor.

"After the woods in front of it is the wharf of Zhangjia Town, where Zhang Biao and his group go ashore." Tang Jiu looked at the sky and said, "In another hour, there should be goods ashore." ”

The two crouched down in the woods, and they could see the pier with kerosene lamps lit. The pier is small, with only a trestle and a few small fishing boats scattered around. There are two fishing boats with kerosene lamps lit and swaying with the undulation of the water.

Li Lu couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Jiu, how do you know that I want to fight them?" ”

Tang Jiu said in a low voice, "I know everything in the village. You run a tractor factory and open a trading company, but you can't hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me. What do you want to do? ”

Judging the two of them, Tang Jiu is more like the operational staff officer next to the chief, in fact, as a guard, he has been with him for a long time, and he is more senior than ordinary combat staff officers.

For Tang Jiu, Li Lu had nothing to hide, he said in a deep voice, "I want to monopolize the smuggling in the dry port area and even the entire south." ”

Tang Jiu groaned.

Counting that he hadn't seen Li Lu for four years, at the first glance, Tang Jiu felt that Li Lu had changed a lot, the army was really a place where people could grow rapidly, and war could completely change or even subvert the character of a person or even a country.

"The cars you sold are the goods of Zhang Biao and his group. They are the largest smuggling team in the dry port. This loss has greatly damaged their vitality. According to my investigation, they have been frantically buying goods these days to make up for their losses. Tang Jiu told the information he had investigated.

Li Lu asked, "Do you know what the goods are?" ”

Shaking his head slightly, Tang Jiu said, "In the past, it was mostly some TV sets and radios and the like. Third, if you don't trouble them, they will look for you. ”

"Why?" Li Lu asked suspiciously.

Tang Jiu said, "Isn't the trading company you and the Hong Kong people run selling TV sets and radios? ”

Li Lu suddenly realized, isn't it, he has inserted a rod to seize the market with cheaper domestic goods, and those who rely on smuggling imported goods to buy and sell will certainly not agree.

"Wu Jie is here."

His ears moved, and Li Lu whispered, turning his head to look over. Wu Jie rode his bicycle towards the pier, and a man came out of a mud house on the edge of the pier......
