"By the way, brother, why are your parents not here?"
Lin Hongshen looked at everyone in the Lin family and felt a little disappointed.
Lin Sanqi stepped forward and explained:
"Uncle Wu, my grandparents said that it is hard to leave our homeland. We are all old and don't want our guests to die in a foreign country, so they insist on staying in the mainland and don't want to come to Xiangjiang with us.
But don't worry, my second uncle, third uncle and fourth uncle are all here, and I left them enough food stamps and money before I left, so their lives will not be difficult. ”
In fact, Lin Sanqi knew that the old man was unhappy and said that his three sons should not occupy the old man's house.
But after the old man really drove his three younger brothers away from the small western-style building, the old man complained about his eldest son again, feeling that his family should not be so heartless and disregard family ties.
So when I faced the invitation from my eldest son and daughter-in-law to go to Xiangjiang to enjoy the blessings together, I immediately refused.
When Lin Hongshen and Lin Xuanshen heard this, they both sighed. A conscientious son always worries about his parents, but now that they are separated, there is nothing they can do.
Unlike Lin Sophora and his family, they cleared customs normally and can go back in the future.
The Lin Hongshen and Lin Xuanshen families smuggled themselves to Xiangjiang. Under the current situation, it is basically impossible to return to the mainland, and they will never see their parents again.
Lin Sanqi hugged her fifth and sixth uncles and smiled:
"Okay, you are sons and you must honor your parents. The three uncles in the mainland are also biological sons and will not ignore the old people. Besides, there is me. I want to return to the mainland and will not ignore the old people.
< br>
In the future, you can send more money back and take the old man over again if you have a chance.
Today our family arrived in Xiangjiang, which is a gratifying event. Let’s go find a seafood restaurant first and have a good meal, which can be regarded as a break from the wind and dust. ”
When Lin Hongshen and Lin Scrophulariaceae heard this, their faces became clear:
"Yes, it will be great if the eldest brother and sister-in-law are here. We also have a backbone. The three of us have escaped from the sea of suffering and regained a new life. It is indeed gratifying, haha."
Lin Sanqi was so frightened that she quickly covered her mouth:
"You can't say that. We want the main theme, otherwise we will be reported by readers again."
The Lin family arrived in Xiangjiang through normal customs clearance procedures. After arriving in Xiangjiang, they just went directly to the police station to apply for identity cards as refugees.
For the 500 veterans, the journey to Xiangjiang was quite bumpy.
In order to prevent the Hong Kong Eagle Government from discovering anomalies, these 500 people need to set off from Huadu by themselves after receiving their travel expenses, and then rush to Bao'an County, Zhongshan County, etc. on the border, and then find their own way to Xiangjiang.
It depends on each person's ability, and each person shows his or her own special abilities.
Of course, relevant departments will still provide some conveniences, such as moving militiamen and garrison troops patrolling along the road in advance so that they can reach the border area smoothly.
If they are unlucky enough to be caught halfway, people from the relevant departments will secretly release them to allow them to move on.
Of course, Lin Sanqi also wanted to test these veterans.
If they can't even reach Xiangjiang, then it can only be said that individual veterans are parallel imports.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t want parallel imports, it’s just a good opportunity to eliminate a group of people.
The ten people Wang Jin, Lu Xuezhi, Zhao Jintao, Wang Shen, Shi Nan, Liu Genchun, Xiao Yu, Fan Dengfeng, Huang Hua, and Huang Xiaoji all came from Shuangxi Commune in Heping County and were standard township party members.
So these 10 people decided to unify their activities so that they could take care of each other. Among them, Wang Jin, the oldest, served as the temporary captain.
After walking for two consecutive nights, the 10 people successfully arrived at Deep Bay (Shenzhen Bay) on the third night and lurked in the mangroves by the sea.
Wang Jin wore a straw hat made of branches on his head, and his body was covered with leaves. He was dressed like a ghillie suit for the purpose of concealment.
He stood on the top of a tree and observed for two days and two nights. He knew what was going on and discussed countermeasures with his fellow villagers.
"First, confirm the distance. It's about 10 miles to the other side. The distance is neither too far nor too close. It's a test of physical strength. It's best to use tools.
There is no big problem for the eight of us. Huang Hua and Huang Xiaoji are poor swimmers. They will definitely not be able to swim across without tools. This is the first point to pay attention to.
In addition, the border guards in Bao'an County are temporarily not patrolling. They must have received instructions from their superiors to indirectly provide convenience for us, but we have to worry about the Xiangjiang side.
I observed that there were five small warships patrolling the sea for a long time during the day. Obviously, there was no chance to swim over during the day. Our only chance is at night.
I calculated last night that the high tide time in the evening is about 7 o'clock and the low tide time is about 12:30. During the low and high tides, the water is turbulent and the undercurrents are surging, which is the most dangerous time.
So we want to swim in the sea, and the best time is between 9 and 11 pm. ”
Huang Hua raised his hand in embarrassment:
"Brother Jin, my brother Xiaoji and I...oh, will it drag everyone down?..."
Wang Jin patted Huang Hua and Huang Xiaoji on the shoulders and comforted:
"There are always more solutions than difficulties. Since we have already reached the beach, there is no reason for you two to go home. The ten of us are one, advancing and retreating together."
Lu Xuezhi chuckled: "Even if eight of us drag you across the sea, don't worry."
Zhao Jintao also comforted:
"We have money now, let's see if there is a chance to buy some car tires. This way we will be safe. After all, we are 5 kilometers away from the sea. I heard that more than tens of thousands of people have died here." There is no bubble these days. There is no swimming circle, so if you insist on counting, you can only build a raft, but since everyone has no tools, it is obviously impossible.
Just as a few people were discussing, suddenly everyone heard the sound of a diesel engine slowly coming from the seaside.
While driving, someone was shouting softly:
"Fellow, does anyone want to buy tires? Fellow, does anyone want to buy tires?"
Wang Jin and others looked at each other and thought it was incredible that there was still someone selling tires in such a dangerous place at the border between the two places?
In fact, how did they know that these tire sellers were actually gangs in the New Territories, and the real boss behind them was the Hong Kong Coast Guard.
These gang members sell tires on the mainland, and then when the tourists successfully arrive in the New Territories, they throw away the tires when they are no longer used, and they can pick them up and continue to sell them.
If someone drowns mid-swim, the tire will not sink. At worst, it can be salvaged from the sea, and it can still be sold.
This is simply a business without capital and a huge profit.
Of course, the Coast Guard will take a large part of the money earned, otherwise they will not let you do this business. After all, the monopoly on the sea surface is in the hands of the Hong Kong Coast Guard.
As for the mainland, there are no ships. Even if the mainland militia discovers it, they will not be able to catch them if they flee to the sea.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Huang Hua heard that someone was selling tires and thought that it was Qiaoer's mother who opened the door for Qiaoer. Qiaoer arrived home by chance.
At this time, not only the Hong Kong refugees lurking in the mangroves surfaced one after another, they all appeared strangely and looked at the diesel boat.
Huang Hua also shouted softly and urgently: "Hey, hey, tire seller!"
When Deng An, the leader of the diesel boat, heard this, he fixed the boat with poles and asked with a smile:
"Young man, do you want to buy tires?"
"Comrade, how much does a tire cost for you?"
Deng An stretched out a finger: "For 100 Hong Kong dollars each, a child can be fooled."
As soon as these words fell, there were coughs in the mangroves. Obviously, this number frightened the escapees, and many of them continued to lurk back into the woods in disappointment.
If they had money, why would they flee to Hong Kong?
When Huang Hua heard that a tire cost 100 Hong Kong dollars, he felt very distressed. He worked hard farming in his hometown for a year without stopping, and his annual income did not exceed 20 yuan.
Deng An is also a good person. Seeing that the other party did not shake his head and said no, but was hesitant, it meant that the other party must have money in his pocket, so he decided to fool him:
"Pretty boy, do you want to buy some? Let me tell you, we are the only one selling tires in Deep Bay, and you can't buy them elsewhere. And let me tell you, there are many undercurrents in Deep Bay, and it is difficult for ordinary people to reach the other side. So, This is not 100 Hong Kong dollars, this is a life.”
Huang Hua and Huang Xiaoji were still hesitating, but Wang Jin stepped forward:
"This person is right. We are going to Xiangjiang to make a lot of money. Don't care about the immediate gains and losses. As long as we arrive in Xiangjiang safely, there will be opportunities to make money in the future. So I suggest that each of us buy a tire. The most important thing is to ensure our own safety. ”
Wang Jin said so, and the others did not object, and all nodded in agreement.
Swim 5 kilometers in one breath. If the ocean current takes you away and the route is a little off, it may not be more than 10 kilometers. Without tires, the sky will not respond, the earth will not respond, and it will be dead.
Seeing that everyone agreed, Wang Jin shouted to the seller:
"Comrade, we want 10 tires, cheaper."
"Hey, the quantity is not small. Haha, okay, pretty boy, I'll give you 90 yuan each. This is a discounted floor price. Don't hesitate, we can't stay here for long."
Wang Jin lowered his head and asked his fellow villagers: "Do you want to buy it or not?"
"Buy!"
"Buy it!"
"Okay, comrade, then give us ten tires and make sure they are fully inflated."
After speaking, Wang Jin counted out 9 Hong Kong dollars from his oilcloth bag and handed them over.
Crossing the sea would make you wet, so the 10 Shuangxi veterans pooled all their money, put it on Wang Jin, whom everyone trusted the most, and wrapped it in oil paper picked up on the road.
When Wang Jin was counting money, a total of 10,000 Hong Kong dollars was accidentally exposed. It must be said that the veteran's thoughts are still quite simple.
Who is Deng An? His eyes were sharper than those of a ghost. He just took a quick glance, and was overjoyed. He thought to himself, these people are still fat sheep.
Deng An kept his cool and threw 10 old tires from the boat. Anyway, if nothing unexpected happened, the tires were sold in the afternoon and would be returned to them that evening.
And he also remembered the appearance of these 10 fat sheep. These days, few stowaways can buy 10 tires, and those who are really rich don't know how to travel. Wouldn't it be safer to go directly to the smugglers and take a boat?
So Deng An planned to arrange his manpower at night, and when these 10 Yankees came ashore, he would rob them of all their money.
Robbery is a common practice of their gang members, and it works repeatedly. It is also another way for them to make money.
But what Deng An didn't expect was that if nothing unexpected happened, an accident would happen. (End of chapter)
