Gu Jiu was still assigned to be a sentry, and he and Li Mingtao stood on a shift. =

The sentry posts of the 107th Regiment are almost the most rigorous and strict sentry arrangements among the front-line combat units. Because there have been cases of spying by foreign agents, and it is a large number of troops with high-tech equipment, the level of vigilance has always been higher.

Basically, at night, almost one-fifth of the officers and men of the regiment were platooned to posts. This method is also one of the measures to cultivate the battlefield awareness of officers and men, and it is something that Li Mu has always attached great importance to.

Li Mingtao's mood tonight was very different, such a thing happened in Gu Jiu's house, as the squad leader, he said that he was not uncomfortable in his heart and did not pay attention to it in his heart, it was false. In the army, it is completely imaginable how important the role of the squad leader is, and it is affordable to raise the status of the squad leader to a higher level.

In life, the squad leader is the parent of the big-headed soldiers, and it is not too much to say that it is a father or a mother. A few days ago, Liu Guisong twisted his foot, and it was Li Mingtao and the veterans who carried him to the medical room, and then cooked every day as if serving the emperor. Shh

Therefore, such a big thing happened in Gu Jiu's family, for Li Mingtao, it was equivalent to such a thing in his family.

The sentry is located at a corner about a hundred meters from the lookout, there is a small earthen bag, there are several large trees with dense foliage, the terrain is very good, and the vision is very good, and you can control the surrounding situation. The camp of the 107th Regiment is walled, and uses a fully automatic monitoring system, which is consistent both externally and internally. Manpower sentry is an effective supplement.

Although it is already June, it is still very cool in the mountains at night. This situation lasts until July and August of the lunar calendar, when the temperature is at its highest, even at the beach or in the mountains.

Li Mingtao stomped his feet and whispered to Gu Jiu, "Don't worry too much, since the deputy head of the regiment knows, he won't care." Gu Jiu, to be honest, even I envy you, and the deputy head of the regiment is very partial to you. ”

Gu Jiu's mood is not high at all, and he will never rely on the preference of the deputy head of the regiment to be arrogant, he said, "My sister is an honest person, with a soft temperament, and it is easy to be deceived. It's okay to watch her when I'm at home, but when I'm not at home, no one is looking at her. My dad doesn't care, my mom is not in good health. After I became a soldier, I was most worried about her, but something happened. ”

If it weren't for the army, Gu Jiu would have already rushed to Guangdong to find someone. How worried he was, and how anxious he was, it was hard for others to understand.

Although Li Mingtao regarded this matter as his own business, it was still difficult for him to enter the role to experience Gu Jiu's mood. All he could do, except comfort, was to look at Gu Jiu.

There must be no more things about leaving the team without permission, to put it mildly, even if it is going to come out, it can't be out of Gu Jiu.

Up and down the 107th regiment, there may be no one who can't see the importance that Deputy Head Li Mu attaches to Gu Jiu.

Gu Jiu's ability is not the most outstanding group of people in the regiment, nor is he a soldier with any shining points in personality, and the reason why he became the only recruit who was looked at differently by Deputy Commander Li Mu may only be attributed to a special complex.

I'm afraid that only Li Jiu is relatively clear - Li Mu saw the figure of his old comrade-in-arms in Gu Jiu, and it just so happened that that old comrade-in-arms was the psychological hurdle that Li Mu might not be able to overcome in his life.

No matter out of guilt or what, Li Mu's preference for Gu Jiu was undisguised.

Changed to someone else, recklessly ran directly to the office to find Li Mu, and in the time after the late roll call, Li Mu would never give any good look to the cadres and backbones of his company.

"The deputy head of the regiment is from Lugang, let me tell you, the deputy head of the regiment has contacted friends over there in Lugang and asked them to help find someone, and if there is no news at dawn tomorrow, the police will be called. Don't worry, as long as you are in the dry port, you will definitely be able to find it. Li Mingtao said.

Telling Gu Jiu about these situations was also explained by the company commander, and it was very suitable for Li Mingtao.

Gu Jiu's eyes shone brightly, just like a drowning person seeing a log floating over, and said, "Really!"

"I can't lie to you. ”

The color of joy flashed by, and Gu Jiu quickly fell silent again, and his mood seemed to be even lower than before.

In the eyes of many people, Gu Jiu is a soldier with a bit of a wooden brain, and his reaction is relatively slow, and compared with a soldier like Liu Guisong who has an active mind and lively behavior, the difference is even more obvious. But this doesn't mean that Gu Jiu is a brainless person, the fact is just the opposite, there are some things that he thinks more and more deeply than anyone else.

For more than ten years, he has been with Murong Mingxiao like a dog's leg, although he is a brother on the surface, and he is called a brother, but many people know that Murong Mingxiao just regards Gu Jiu as a loyal follower many times. Could it be that Gu Jiu didn't notice this at all?

Apparently not.

He knew, but he didn't want to think about it, or he didn't care about it. He is free to treat his friends in a way that is good and bad is bad, that's all, and other people's words don't have much effect on him.

Growing up in such a family environment, if he didn't have these resistances and a firm subjective thought, he would have been knocked down by inferiority and grievances, and in the end he would only be a soldier who was not as good as Geng Shuai in the early stage.

At this moment, he was thinking not only about his sister being cheated away, but about the whole family. He began to think that this had happened after he had been away from home for only half a year, and what would happen if it had taken a little longer. There are also two younger brothers and a younger sister, who will take care of them.

The more I thought about it, the more relieved I became, or rather, the worries that were originally hidden in my heart all broke out because of the eldest sister's accident.

Although Li Mingtao, who knew Gu Jiu best, there was no way to guess at this moment that Gu Jiu had already begun to retreat in his heart! Not only him, no one would guess in this regard-a standard soldier like Gu Jiu, a soldier who couldn't smash a few bricks to scold his mother, would think about how to run out of the army?

Gu Jiu was born with the idea of retreating, he was only a twenty-year-old young man, serving for half a year, one was the army, the other was the family, if he was able to adjust and maintain this balance in his heart before, now with the accident of the eldest sister, the balance has begun to tilt.

The biggest motivation for him to become a soldier is not precisely because being a soldier can change his fate, and what he will change is the fate of a family. At least put aside the money, their Gu family will not be bullied in the village in the future, because the eldest son of the Gu family eats imperial grain.

If Gu Jiu's resemblance to Geng Shuai is one of the reasons why Li Mu prefers him, then Gu Jiu's motivation for joining the army and his thoughts, including the situation encountered, are very representative phenomena in Li Mu's eyes.

Li Mu is not an absolute idealist, and it is unrealistic to expect today's soldiers to have the consciousness they had thirty years ago. It took the army more than ten years to figure out this problem, and then greatly increased the treatment of military personnel, improved the living standards of military personnel, and even now preferred to consume ten times the transportation cost in order to send some fresh vegetables and fresh water to remote highland outposts.

In order to retain people, it is now completely impossible to rely on ideological education alone.

Seeing Gu Jiu's gaze flickering occasionally in the faint moonlight, Li Mingtao didn't know how to comfort him, he was just thinking, if such a thing happened to him, I was afraid that he would immediately apply for a vacation, right?

When the door was pushed open, Gu Qingqing's tears had not yet dried.

Coming in was a scantily clad middle-aged woman and a middle-aged man with a gentle smile on his face, he was wearing a suit and looked formal. The man in the suit turned on the light, and the room, which had been somewhat dim before, suddenly became much brighter.

Gu Qingqing's lips trembled, she knew the middle-aged woman, that is, she wanted to do that kind of thing by herself, it was the mommy here. All this, for Gu Qingqing, who is as simple as a piece of paper, is like a bolt from the blue, and it is impossible to do such a thing rather than die.

The man in the suit nodded at the middle-aged woman, and the middle-aged woman went out, took the door, and left the space.

Pulled a chair and sat opposite Gu Qingqing, Gu Qingqing stepped back in fear.

The man in the suit smiled gently, if it weren't for the premise, if it weren't for this environment, his appearance would definitely have nothing to do with the bad guys. However, under the premise that Gu Qingqing knew what kind of place this was and what kind of work Liu Min was doing, the middle-aged man's smile was ill-intentioned.

Looking at Gu Qingqing, the man in the suit said, "I've seen your ID card, you're eighteen years old." Little girl, don't be nervous, this is not Longtan Tiger's Den, it is not as terrible as you imagined. I am the entertainment manager of this hotel. You also saw it when you came over, our hotel is a five-star hotel. Sister Chen's statement before made you misunderstand, and I am here to clear up the misunderstanding. ”

Gu Qingqing closed her mouth tightly and looked at the man in the suit vigilantly.

The man in the suit smiled and continued, "Liu Min and Tang Weihong are both your classmates, and Tang Weihong has just gone to work. I think I should tell you about what we do, it's definitely not what you think. To put it bluntly, just accompany the guests to drink. There's no other deal, and you don't have to resist it. Since you're here, I suggest you give it a try, but you can't do it, and you can leave at any time. Go to work at ** o'clock in the evening, usually get off work at about 0:00, and have an income of four or five hundred yuan a day. ”

Speaking of this, he paused and looked at Gu Qingqing, "Little girl, you can calculate for yourself how much money you can earn in a month." Presumably, your family's economic environment is not very good? I came all the way to Guangdong to work, the purpose is to make money to help the family, right? I have learned, you also have two younger brothers and a younger sister, your mother has been bedridden for a long time, and your father is not very careful. In this way, you are the eldest child in the family. At the age of eighteen and as an adult, it is indeed necessary to take responsibility for the family. ”

The man in the suit recalled, "I came out to work at the age of sixteen. The conditions are much worse than yours. At that time, the son-in-law only had more than 500 yuan a month, but for our family, it was a very considerable income. At that time, the family's annual income was less than 3,000 yuan. In fact, like you, I came from a poor family, and I can only rely on myself to change my life. ”

"Your classmate Liu Min ......"

Gu Qingqing suddenly interrupted him, "I'm sixteen years old, not eighteen!

Slightly stunned, the man in the suit smiled, "It's the same." ”

He secretly said in his heart that as long as he was over fourteen years old, it would be fine.

"Xiao Gu, let me tell you this. We're a regular entertainment venue, and you can see it, and the big signboard hangs there. We're not going to do anything that violates the law here. As I said earlier, your classmates Liu Min, including Tang Weihong, only do their job to accompany the wine and sing with the guests. There will be no other thing. The purpose of our business is to make money, and the purpose of your part-time job is also to make money. I say that, you know?"

Gu Qingqing still stared at the man in the suit with a firm and wary expression.

"I make a suggestion, you go to work for two days to give it a try, if you are really not used to it, you can leave at any time, and the salary will be settled for you according to the number of days you work. The man in the suit said, "But I'll talk about the ugly things first." You have to have a customer who clicks on you, no one takes a fancy to you, that's not a penny. Well, Tang Weihong is still sitting in the lounge. So, it's not like you're going to have an income if you're going to, and the customers look like it. ”

Gu Qingqing shook her head firmly, "I don't want to work here with you, I want to go back." ”

The man in the suit was stunned.

He doesn't know how many times he has done similar things, and he rarely fails. Which newcomer didn't agree to give it a try under the coercion and temptation of his three-inch incorruptible tongue, this time, there is a chance that ** will not choose to leave. The reason for this, the man in the suit is very clear.

"Oh, so let's just not talk. The man in the suit put away his smile and replaced it with a cold expression, "I'll tell you the truth." Not everyone can come to work with us. If it weren't for Liu Min's guarantee, you wouldn't have been able to get in at all. Let me tell you this, if you resolutely don't go to work, it will not be good for you, you Liu Min, and Tang Weihong who came with you. The company paid a price, and you can't help the company make money and just want to leave, that's impossible. ”

The man in the suit showed his true face.

"Either we go to work obediently and be good for everyone, or we take tough measures, which is not good. The man in the suit said coldly, "On the one hand, there is a job with a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, and on the other hand, there is a coolie who has no money, you can think about it yourself, think about your family, and I will come back in half an hour." ”

With that, he left.

He knows very well that to deal with such a little girl who is not deeply involved in the world, family factors are always the most powerful weapon. Many girls finally compromise on the factor of poor families. In the end, it is poor, and there are too many things to sell for money. When the bottom line is constantly breached, it will become no bottom line.

No bottom line is scary, and the resulting economic benefits are equally scary.

Gu Qingqing hid her face and cried again, she regretted it, and at the same time began to waver, and when she could not see the dawn of hope, her firm will was affected......

Note: If the previous addition cannot be completed tonight, it will be delayed, and some work conflicts will be encountered, which will affect the creative passion, but no matter what, the addition will definitely be added, thank you for your understanding!
