District 9

Early morning.

On the top floor of the Grand Palace, Yuan Hua sat on the sofa with his chin in one hand, looking at the dozen or so gangsters on the left and right sides without saying a word.

After a long silence, a bald man, with his legs crossed, frowned and said: "If this matter is not done well, our faces will be disgraced. If we sit together and study why we broke it now, it will be like doing it to our own faces." There is no point in talking about it. The little people in the world are fighting for food rations, but what we are fighting for is a breath. No matter whether Qi Lin is willing to hand over the supply channel or not, he must be killed for no other reason. Just to slap Old Li in the face and straighten Old Man Ma’s mentality.”

"That makes sense." A lean man immediately nodded in agreement: "It's one thing for us to let Qi Lin go, but it's another thing for Lao Li to let him go. If you don't fight back with this tone, The people below are upset, and the people above will also re-evaluate our importance in Songjiang."

"I'll do it." The bald man stood up and said with a gloomy look: "No matter how much money you spend, I can't let Qi Lin leave Songjiang. If we can't do it overtly, we'll do it secretly."

"Have a rest now." Yuan Hua frowned and waved his hand.

Everyone was stunned when they heard the sound, and fell silent again.

Yuan Hua picked up the teacup, looked at everyone with a cold face and said: "The goods and people in the warehouse have been taken away by the Ma family, and if they dare to do this, they must have the tacit approval of Lao Li. You are holding on to your tail. What are you talking about when you have it in your hands?"

The bald man reached out and touched his head, but did not dare to talk back.

"Why Lao Li went against me on this matter, I haven't fully figured it out yet. But the Ma family dares to go against me today, it must be for the supply channels in Qi Lin's hands." Yuan Hua stood up and carried on his back Hands narrated: "If we don't break up, it's easy to talk about anything. But if we break up, then if you want to argue with each other, the dignified Superintendent and the Ma family, who have raised their heads in the past two years, don't want to lose face." Is it?! It’s already obvious that the people on the other side will defend Qi Lin to the death in this matter. As long as you dare to take action, the goods and people in the hands of the Ma family will be destroyed early tomorrow morning. He was handed over to the superintendent. By then, we will have no money, no people, and we will be in big trouble."

Everyone couldn't help but nodded when they heard this.

"What's more, can you think of continuing to look for Qi Lin now, so that he will have no defense at all? The stinky beggar can still make two friends after staying in the same place for a long time, let alone Lao Li who works in Songjiang I have been the superintendent for so many years." Yuan Hua sighed and said: "Qi Lin must be missing. Let's hold my brother-in-law's funeral first. The funeral must be a big one."

After the bald man heard the word "big deal", he immediately reminded: "Dahua, your brother-in-law's matter is quite embarrassing for us. If this is a big deal... will it be a joke to outsiders?"

"Only those who have no bottom are afraid of other people's gossip." Yuan Hua ordered without any doubt: "Just do it big and send him and Tiger away in glory."

"Okay." The lean man nodded.

"Okay, it's all gone." Yuan Hua said this, turned around and ran out the door.

Everyone looked at each other with ugly expressions on their faces, and started sighing and whispering.

Yuan Ke was also present just now, but he didn't say a word from beginning to end. He didn't follow the elder brother out until he left.

In the corridor, Yuan Ke followed his eldest brother and said in a complaining tone: "I said before that if the company wants to go further, it must first establish rules. The people below have been too ostentatious in their work in the past two years, and many of them have People who are incompetent and have no brains will not only be unable to provide any help to the company, but will also add trouble... Take Tiger as an example, although something happened to him, was there no warning at all? I was there some time ago While the Superintendent was doing his best to raid Ma's house, he secretly put drugs out on Tuzh Street just to make some quick money. But have you ever thought about it, as soon as he did this, the news would spread back to the Superintendent... That fool Everyone knows why I want to target the Ma family. Brother, sometimes gossip can kill people, do you know?! Do you think that Lao Li’s standing on the opposite side this time is just a temporary decision he made? Let me tell you, he had already They all look down on us and feel that we have gone too far. They may even think that I will threaten his position in the superintendent in the future. Do you understand? But I, Yuan Ke, have a very crazy style of doing things in the superintendent. Really? Not at all. I have been keeping my tail between my legs, and this crazy impression was given to him by other people in the company."

Yuan Hua turned around when he heard the sound and asked expressionlessly: "What exactly do you want to say?"

"I just want to say that this time it hurt so much that even my uncle is gone, so we must learn from it and not let the failure become worthless." Yuan Ke said excitedly: "It's time to establish rules. , it’s time to clean up a batch.”

Yuan Hua stared at his younger brother for a long time, then suddenly pointed at his chest and said: "You have to understand that your eldest brother did not lead a group of top students to build the country. The people who follow us are all low-level people who once had problems eating. People...and today, these people at the bottom are still your eldest brother's most reliable backing. You set rules for them and clean them out. Then when the Ma family comes, who will deal with it? You or me? "

"I mean……!"

"Your idea is only on paper and is not suitable for us." Yuan Hua said and left.

When Yuan Ke heard this, he roared with blood rushing to his head: "Brother, District 9 will not continue to be in chaos. In five, ten, or twenty years, one day it will become a complete system and a social society." The environment is stable. If you don’t change, you will be dragged to death by these people.”

Yuan Hua didn't respond, just disappeared into the corridor.

…

Two days later.

Three garrison-specific trucks slowly drove out of District 9 and stopped at the edge of a desolate land.

ten minutes later.

A dirty semi-truck came up the opposite road and flashed its headlights on the road.

After a while, Qi Lin, his younger sister Qi Yu, and their elderly and sick mother got out of the car, said goodbye to their brother soldier who sent them off, and stepped onto the truck.

Frost and snow were falling from the sky, and on the land that had been frozen for three or four years, there was only endless white snow.

Qi Lin's abdomen was wrapped with gauze, lying on the back seat of a half-truck, staring blankly at District 9, with mixed feelings in his heart.

He had worked hard there, had smiled and catered to this fucked-up era.

He lost his dignity there, worked like a dog, and thought he got a lot...

But when he left today, he didn't even bring a complete quilt with him. All he had was a heavy human burden and two relatives who needed him to support...

No more, years of hard work, all gone overnight.

Qi Lin couldn't figure out the meaning of kneeling down, so he decided to stand and move forward in the future.

With his head leaning against the cold and frost-stained car glass, Qi Lin's cheeks were hot and he murmured: "Don't let me get better, don't let me turn over...otherwise I will come back here with a smile one day and look at you." Everyone cried."
