Soviet Godfather

In a warehouse in the living area of ​​the Gorky Automobile Factory, Seryozha was sweating profusely with Boris and Yuri on the fitness equipment. The warehouse was rented by Seryozha from the automobile factory, and some simple decoration and Decorated as the active base of the Gorky Gang. Seryozha added some furniture and fitness equipment for this place. Now the warehouse is divided into upper and lower floors. The first half of the first floor is mainly some fitness equipment. According to Yuri's request, a boxing ring and some sandbags were also installed. . The second half of the area is the leisure area, where Seryozha put a large TV, a video recorder, several sofas, a bar, a wine cabinet, and several large refrigerators filled with beer. Because the warehouse is so big, there are more than a dozen billiard cases placed between the two areas. In short, the first half here is like a gym, the middle part is like a billiard hall, and the last area is like a bar.

On the second floor of the warehouse, there are six bedrooms, two offices, a bathroom and a kitchen, which are set up for Yuri and the others. In short, they can live here comfortably. The area on the first floor can be used by anyone from the Gorky gang, but the area on the second floor is not. Only Seryosha and the others can go up.

Yuri and the others liked this place very much, and now they lived here almost every day except to go back to visit their mother and taste Petrov's father's food. But today is a bit different, almost all of Yuri's younger brothers gathered on the first floor, surrounded by a bad old man with tattoos all over his body, asking all kinds of questions. This old man is not an ordinary person. He is a tattoo artist specially invited by Seriosha. He graduated from the famous Ural labor camp, which is famous for its top tattoo artists. Many criminals are even willing to be transferred here to serve their sentences. To be able to get awesome tattoos. The old man has just been released. He has no life, no children, and makes a living as portraits on the black market. His tattoos are hard to avoid attracting attention. After learning about his origins, Seryozha invited him to design tattoos for members of the Gorky Gang.

The reason why he made such a fuss about getting tattoos was rooted in an incident a few days ago. That day, Yuri took his younger brothers for a walk in the black market. Although the Gorky Gang did not charge protection fees, some things still had to be taken care of, such as the division of stalls, the cleaning of merchants, and how to deal with disputes with customers. These things have to be taken care of.

Just when they thought it was another peaceful day, an old man from the countryside found Yuri and complained to him that their management fee was too expensive. The old man was driving an old truck and he was just here to sell some home grown potatoes. At first, Yuri thought that some of his subordinates could not control him and collected protection fees without authorization, but after he communicated with the old man in detail, he completely understood that someone dared to pretend to be a member of the Gorky gang and cheated on the black market. . Because the old man said that there were two people who asked him for protection money, probably in their forties. God bears witness, Yuri doesn't have such a young brother. Later, after investigation, it was found that the old man was not the only victim, but everyone thought this was a new rule of the Gorky gang, so they dared not speak out.

Although the incident was not serious, it aroused the vigilance of Seryozha. Now it is just someone bluffing and cheating under the banner of the Gorky gang. If someone pushes the crime of murder and arson to the Gorky gang in the future, it will attract the attention of the Ministry of the Interior and the KGB. , what should I do. Moreover, the Gorky gang is mainly based on the working class of the Gorky Automobile Factory and their children. Sergey knows the truth that rabbits don’t eat grass beside their nests. It's about to close.

Therefore, Xie Liaosha decided to strengthen management. The first thing to do was to identify the younger brothers' identities. Xie Liaosha first thought of tattoos. But Seryozha didn't want to force this matter, so he specially invited this tattoo artist from prison.

Father Petrov briefly introduced the meaning of tattoos in the prison to Seryozha, and Yuri, as a person who had lived in it, naturally knew it. In prison, if you get a tattoo that is too awesome, and you have no corresponding experience, then your ending will probably only be death. The boys under Yuri don't know the heights of the sky and the earth, and some even want to tattoo an elephant on their own, which is a joke. So if you really want to get tattoos as these guys think, you might be stabbed to death on the street. In order to meet everyone's need to choose patterns freely without causing unnecessary troubles, tattoo artists have given several patterns to choose from.

Yuri's younger brothers can only have the patterns of the cross and the Son, and the three letters GAZ below represent the Gorky Gang. Of course, you can choose the overall pattern, but the content inside is roughly limited to these two things. Because according to the meaning of underworld code words. "Holy Son" and the cross represent "I will be loyal to my brothers, and I will not betray until I die!" As for the guy who wanted to tattoo an elephant, the old man warned him: "If you don't want to be cut off inside, you'd better Listen to me." This plan was finally accepted by everyone. Some people choose tattoos on their arms, while others choose tattoos on their shoulders. Because the old man said, the longer you work in this industry, the more information you have to convey, it is best to empty your chest and stomach.

Yuri's situation is slightly different. His pattern is the Virgin holding the cross and embracing the Son. Because Yuri has been in prison, the Virgin Mary represents "the prison is my home, and I dare to sit through the prison!" It is an honor for someone in this line of work to have entered the Gulag, and Yuri can get it tattooed on his body dignifiedly. Yakov, Mikhail, and Boris, like everyone else, are also patterns of the Son and the Cross, because they have no experience of entering the Gulag. Boris had a near-death experience, so he chose to add the phrase "God be with me" below the pattern.

In the end it was Seryozha's turn. He called the old tattoo artist aside and quietly made his request. The Virgin is holding the Holy Son in her arms. dagger. Below are the Chinese characters eight and one, a star of authority and the words GAZ.

After hearing this, the old man looked at Seryozha in disbelief. The experience of this young man was really complicated. He hurriedly asked: "Do you know the meaning of these patterns?"

"Yes, I know very well! Please don't worry! I know what I'm doing!" Seryozha replied firmly.

"How many drops of blood?" the old man asked.

"A drop," replied Seryozha.

This is a pattern carefully selected by Seryozha. Seryozha decided to choose honesty about the tattoos on his body. The Virgin holds the cross in her arms and holds the Son in her arms, which means that both Sergey and Yuri have been in prison. The dagger in the hands of the Son means that Sergey has committed murder. Serving in the army, eight and one are the patterns on the military flag. These are Xie Wenlong's experience and also Xie Liaosha's past.

While everyone was discussing their tattoos, the sound of several car brakes came from outside.
