Chapter 9: An Alternative Life (5) A City Tycoon (Part I)
Not long after Guo Kaixin's second marriage, Shao Linlin's work unit, the Maternity and Infant Hospital, began to divide rooms.
Because Shao Linlin's working experience is not very long, she can only be assigned to a single room. But Guo Kaixin believes that everything is man-made. He passed the director of Shao Linlin's department and found the vice president in charge of the room. Under the temptation of Guo Kaixin's 20,000 yuan, they were allocated a two-bedroom house.
The location of the new house is very good, not only in the middle of the first ring of City A, but also very close to the park downstairs, which makes the two very satisfied. After a simple renovation, they lived a life of "upstairs and downstairs, electric light and telephone".
With a new house, it is necessary to "burn the bottom of the pot", Guo Kaixin did not invite too many friends, but invited several relatives in the family to his new home.
During the banquet, Guo Kaixin asked his sixth brother Guo Kaiying, "Sixth, you said that my son's name can be changed back for me, not surnamed Guo, I feel that it is noisy, as if it is not my baby." ”
Guo Kaiying looked very embarrassed, "Fourth brother, whether you change your name or not, this is secondary, the key is that you are still an agricultural hukou, if the child changes his name, the hukou will not be good." Now your two household registration books, the fourth sister-in-law and the child are non-agricultural household registration, if you change your surname to Guo, he will have to fall on your household registration book, which will not fall, and it will not be good for the child to go to school in the future, you should wait a little longer, if there is a new household registration policy, I will inform you. ”
"Wouldn't it be okay to convert my hukou to a non-agricultural hukou, anyway, I don't want to go back to the countryside to farm."
"This is easy, there are regulations above, if you turn to non-farming, it will cost 10,000 yuan, if you have it, you can give it a try."
When squad leader Shao heard that it would cost 10,000 yuan to transfer an account, he immediately spoke, "What? Ten thousand dollars. That's my ten-year salary, Xinzi, let's wait, what can you call your seed? ”
Guo Kaixin saw that his father-in-law said this, so he had to put this matter down. In fact, he is really not bad for money now, and he can still afford 10,000 yuan, but he doesn't want to violate the old man's will, so let the old man have the final say.
Shao squad leader has Shao's selfish intentions, and he has always had opinions about Guo Kaixin. Coupled with his daughter and grandson and his surname, for this old man, not to mention how comfortable it is, he really doesn't want others to say that he is an "old family".
The eldest brother Guo Kaiwei drank a few sips of beer and opened his mouth. "Fourth, do you still have contact with Liu Sheng now?"
"No, he just came to the last wedding, and he hasn't been in touch since."
"Now Liu Sheng is the key target of the city bureau, and sooner or later he has to go in. You better stay away from him, what he does is not right, since you have studied well, for the sake of your younger siblings and children. It's better for you to stay away from him, let's not mess with him. ”
Guo Kaixin has always wondered that only a few years later, Liu Sheng has become a well-known figure in City A.
Liu Sheng, an ordinary railway boy. There are many stories about why he became the "tycoon" of City A in a short period of time.
remembers that back then, Guo Kaixin asked Lao Hei's father and son to calculate. Went to a penitentiary. In order to help Guo Kaixin fight the grievances, Liu Sheng entered Lao Hei's house in a dark night and taught their father and son a lesson. Since then, Liu Sheng's name has spread in the "old road".
Although Liu Sheng is not as good as Guo Kaixin, his mind and wisdom can often make him turn danger into a disaster.
In City A in the sixties and seventies of the last century, there was a well-known gangster, who was called "Hao Stick". This person is not only ruthless, but also very capable of collecting money, and has become the "leading brother" on the road at that time. ”
Since the end of the seventies, society has also been stabilized with the end of the turmoil. The public security organs have taken over from the Military Management Commission and the Revolutionary Committee as local dictatorial organs. The murder cases and major cases of "Hao Bang'er" were presented in front of the police. Due to the passage of time, many parties and evidence can no longer be found, but for the sake of social stability, "Hao Sticker", the "leading brother" of the year, was invited into the class. Legend has it that hundreds of people went in with him, some of whom were sure to be "full of evil", and some of them went in voluntarily for the sake of righteousness, in order to defend the eldest brother.
In prison, "Hao Gang'er" still regards himself as a big brother, no matter where he goes, from the guards to the lowest-level prisoners, he is very polite to him, if nothing else, just for his reputation and connections outside, he also deserves such respect.
Liu Sheng's mother is the younger sister of "Hao Sticker", Liu Sheng learned from his mother since he was a child that there is such a big figure in his family, and his mother often boasts of her glorious history in front of Liu Sheng.
"When I was in school, there were several people who protected me from school, and if I saw that any of my classmates were not angry, someone would immediately block him at the entrance of the alley and beat him until he didn't dare to go to school."
"Mom, then you were very good when you were a student, and what happened later."
"Later? Later, I fell in love with your father, he didn't agree to have sex with me at first, and then as soon as my brother came out, he immediately became numb, and when we got married that year, he was 20 and I was 19."
In this way, Liu Sheng kept hearing about his uncle's "glorious history" in his mother's mouth, which also strengthened his goal of going to the rivers and lakes.
With the arrival of Guo Kaixin, Liu Sheng believes that this is a great opportunity. Guo Kaixin is like a "Ma Yongzhen" character in the movie, brave and ruthless enough, he follows him and can occupy a place in the rivers and lakes with his own mind. However, the good times didn't last long, Guo Kaixin went in, so that he had no backer, and the boys who followed Guo Kaixin gradually left him, and he looked very low.
A few months later, Liu Sheng's father died, this man who has been disciplined by his wife all his life, is also very sad, in front of his wife, his wife always said the last sentence, he has not dared to confront his wife, what he is afraid of is his uncle who is far away in prison, even his wife can not have children, he also endured, in his forties, he got "diabetes", after the death, he died.
Before leaving, he wrote a letter to his son Liu Sheng, telling him about his life experience, which he did not dare to do when he was alive, because he was too afraid of his wife.
I don't know if it's the pain of losing my husband, or the usual big grinning character. Liu Sheng's father's suicide note, and it fell into the hands of his wife, still let Liu Sheng see it for the first time.
The letter reads like this. On a certain day in a certain year, Liu Sheng's biological mother was a high school classmate of Liu Sheng's mother, and when she picked up her sister from school, "Hao Sticker" fell in love with this female classmate. Since then, after many days of threats and temptations, this female classmate asked "Hao Gang'er" to do it. After getting his hands on it, "Hao Sticker" fled from City A because of a falling out with another big brother, but he didn't expect this female classmate to leave him a "root". This is Liu Sheng.
After Liu Sheng's mother learned that the child was her brother's biological flesh and blood, she adopted him, and Liu Sheng's biological mother saw that her son was already missing, so she didn't know where to go.
Because his wife could not have children, Liu Sheng's father also acquiesced to this son, and among the crowd at that time, if anyone did not have a descendant, they would be laughed at, and they would be called "desperate". In order not to be ridiculed by colleagues at work. The couple is very good to Liu Sheng, and when there is no milk powder when there is no milk powder, they will hold Liu Sheng and "turn into a relationship" from door to door. Slowly, Liu Sheng also learned that in this world, he still has many godfathers and godmothers who have raised him.
After reading the letter, Liu Sheng took the letter and found his mother. But my mother didn't think so. "This old immortal, dead and dead, still give me trouble. What he said in the letter is true, I am your aunt, what's the matter, is it that the wings have grown stiff, and you don't want to recognize me as a mother. ”
"No, I'm just asking, I didn't expect my father to be so heroic, I want to meet him, okay?"
"What's not to do, you've grown up, I'll take you to see him on Sunday, your father doesn't know that you have such a thing, hahaha."
The sound of his mother's voice, Liu Sheng is already very used to it. Since he was a child, he had heard that his mother was not a good woman, and the men who had "broken shoes" with her, there was not a company, but also a platoon. It's just that her father is usually very weak and doesn't dare to offend her, if she had changed to a man, she would have knocked out her front teeth a long time ago.
"Hao Bang'er" was originally sentenced to eight years, and it stands to reason that he should have been released from prison a long time ago and could have returned home. However, the public security leaders of City A still wanted to keep him in prison because of his influence in the underworld in City A.
"Hao Sticker" also came to a good way, almost fifty years old, even if he went out, he might not be able to live better than before. Inside, now his job is "assistant captain", not only is he not a prisoner, but he can also receive a salary of dozens of yuan a month. When the prisoners saw him, they still called him the eldest brother, and even the warden was a friend of his "Hao Gang'er".
The arrival of his sister and nephew surprised the eldest brother. Ever since he entered, he had lost contact with his sister and brother-in-law. When others asked him what other relatives he had outside, he always replied that there were no more, they were all dead.
There are two meanings of this statement, one is that my sister's family is very realistic, and if you don't come to see him, it means that you don't want to "get along" with him. The second is that he doesn't want his opponent to find his sister's family and cause them trouble.
"Why are you here, brother-in-law, who is this kid?"
"That dead ghost is gone, diabetes, this kid is my son, call him uncle."
Liu Sheng didn't scream, but kept looking at the "little old man" in front of him. Where is he so powerful, he has been calling for wind and rain in City A for nearly 30 years, he is no different, he is not as tall as me.
"Why don't you call it, this is your uncle, he always hugged you when you were a child and bought you toys."
Liu Sheng still didn't call it, because he already knew that Lu Dao was his father in front of him, and he really didn't know whether Lu Dao should be called uncle or father.
"If you don't bark, forget it, the foreign man and the foreign woman are dogs, just leave after eating, let him go, sister, you are about to retire, if not, find another person, it is too difficult for a woman to live."
"It's coming, there are still three years, my personal life is wonderful, I don't need you to teach me, I'm taking the child to see you today, you should come out."
"I could have come out a long time ago, but now I don't want to go out, I'm used to staying inside, and I'm really not used to being outside."
Liu Sheng's mother asked Liu Sheng to go out for a while, and she wanted to talk to her brother for a while.
Liu Sheng walked out of the dormitory of "Hao Sticker" very sensibly.
Prisons are very different from detention centers, and even more different from correctional facilities. It was the first time Liu Sheng came to the largest prison in the area of City A, which is said to have been converted into a prison after it was originally a barracks for the old army. He looked around, and he had a premonition that he would one day live here and become a prisoner. Because after he learned that he was the son of the "leading brother", the blood in his body kept surging up, and he also dreamed of being the "leading brother".
Liu Sheng walked forward for another distance. A group of people were seen squatting around playing chess. Some of these people wore police uniforms, while others wore the usual civilian clothes. Liu Sheng played chess very well, he also won the ranking in the city's middle school competition when he was in middle school, because it was officially held, as the top three Liu Sheng, was also awarded the title of "amateur national master".
Among the people who played chess, both were police officers in their thirties, and it can be seen from the number of chess moves that both of them were of an average level, which was called "road chess players" at that time.
I saw one of them after the victory. shouted with a big grin, "If you dare to come, I'll clean up one by one today." ”
Liu Sheng, who was standing on the side, smiled slightly and was about to walk away, when a person next to him stopped him.
"Hey, that young man, look at the way you smiled just now if you are not convinced, or you clean up two games of him, he is our chess king here, and he is usually arrogant."
"I'm not going down. I'm just going to watch, and if I do, I'm going to lose. Liu Sheng became modest.
"It's okay, you can play. We're big guys for you. That person still surged Liu Sheng to play.
When everyone saw that person, they all said a word, and I asked Liu Sheng to play a word. Liu Sheng was also embarrassed to sit on the small bench and played chess with the "chess king".
Liu Sheng is a professional chess player. Three sets in a row, two wins and one draw. It can be clearly seen that Liu Sheng has the upper hand. I don't know how to let the "chess king" draw a game. Now everyone was silent, and no one praised Liu for his good promotion.
At this time, a "Crown" brand car drove in this direction from the gate, and several people got out of the car, among which the leader looked like the leader, but everyone did not greet him when they saw him, but the one who spoke first.
"Hey, chess king, I won a few games today, how did you bow your head and put your head on it, did you meet a real master?"
The chess king knew who it was when he heard the voice, and he didn't look back at him, but shouted loudly, "Win a fart, I lost both, this guy is very powerful, and I don't know where Lu Dao came from." ”
The leader walked to the chess stall and turned his head to look at Liu Sheng, "Which guy is this, so powerful, he defeated our chess king." ”
At this time, the chess king admitted defeat, "I'm not coming, I'm not an opponent, I'm going home to pick up the child." ”
The leader then sat in the position of the chess king and said to Liu Sheng, "Young man, why don't you play two games." ”
A policeman who got off the bus with the leader next to him introduced, "It was our chess king here who walked just now, and this is our coach here." ”
Liu Sheng originally wanted to leave, but seeing that everyone was still interested, it was difficult to leave on his own, so he had to set up the chess pieces again.
"Then let's take the next game and see how good the coach is."
A new game began, the coach deserves to be a coach, his means are much higher than the chess king, Liu Shengjian met a master, and he can't be too careless, just like that, you come and go, and finally play a game of chess.
Originally, the coach wanted to play the second set, when a young policeman ran over, "No. 1, the phone number of a certain secretary." ”
After hearing this, the leader stood up and took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Liu Hong.
"Young man, you played chess well, you have something to do today, let's play another day, whose child are you?"
"I'm Hao Bang'er's nephew." Liu Sheng also stretched out his hand and shook it with the leader.
As soon as Liu Sheng's voice fell, everyone present was shocked and did not speak. The leader said with a smile, "It turns out that you are from Lao Hao's family, yes, yes, Lao Hao is not as good as you when he plays chess, young man, the future is immeasurable." After speaking, he walked out of the chess stall with a large group of people.
Looking at the leader's back, Liu Sheng calculated that this person must be the warden here, otherwise the young policeman would not be able to call him "No. 1". (To be continued......)
