Return to 2001 to pursue dreams

The so-called mountain exhaustion refers to the roads in mountainous areas. Looking down from the top of the mountain, the fork in the road seems to be right in front of you, but when the car actually got there, it took a full two hours. Gao Hongda My stomach growled with hunger.

You can only use compressed biscuits and cover it with water. At the gas station at the 208 intersection, he filled up all the cars and all the fuel tanks he carried. For the first time, Gao Hongda learned that real-name registration was required to refuel in Tibetan areas.

After the fat chef finished his work, he took Gao Hongda and asked quietly: "Is there something wrong with this senior brother of yours? When he sat in my car, he would either touch my hands or my thighs. This man, he almost... I’m so sick! Goosebumps all over my body.”

Gao Hongda laughed out loud and lowered his voice and said to the fat man: "You are right! This guy is dead! Just go back and find a place where there is no one and leave him to feed the wolves!"

The fat man was furious when he heard this. He ran to Cangyun Peak and asked Sun Dazhuang to be transferred to another car. It was really disgusting.

A few low-rise houses not far ahead are what the team members call hotels. The oldest team member said: "The owner of this hotel just changed three months ago. The new owner is a Han nationality, very easy-going and very kind." Yes, his mutton is particularly delicious and doesn’t have any smell at all. If several of our wilderness clubs in Lhasa receive orders from this route, they will basically choose to stay here and rest.”

Gao Hongda was not interested in these. He just wanted to eat a hot meal today.

A Tibetan Mastiff was lying lazily at the door of the hotel. When he saw the convoy coming, he just rolled his eyelids and continued to lie down with his eyes closed to rest, looking extremely domineering.

The convoy skillfully bypassed the row of houses in front and parked in the yard behind. After all the team members got off the car, they opened the thick curtain of the back door and filed in. The temperature of the hotel was very comfortable. From the outside, the hotel looked ordinary, even a little... It is dilapidated, but inside is a typical Tibetan decoration with beautiful colors, making people feel as warm as entering a Tibetan home.

Cang Yunfeng greeted the boss very familiarly: "Boss Li, we are here again. Hurry up and bring a bowl of your braised mutton!"

"Okay!" A loud response came from the room behind the counter, and then a middle-aged man walked out with a smile. But after seeing the person, the smile immediately froze on his face, and his legs moved unconsciously. Back away.

The expressions of Gao Hongda and Yan Gaoliang were almost identical. They both frowned and glared at each other. The three of them stared at each other blankly for several seconds. Gao Hongda was the first to call out the boss's name: "Li Jianjun!"

Yes, the world is so small. The hotel owner in front of him is none other than Li Jianjun, the former director of the Dongjiao Development Zone and Li Jianzhong's youngest brother who was tricked into tapping rubber in Myanmar more than half a year ago.

Li Jianjun trembled, glanced around, turned around and ran out the door. Yan Gaoliang opened his hands and blocked his way at the door.

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Li Jianjun stopped running. He lowered his hands feebly, lowered his head and sighed, "What's supposed to come will still come! I thought I could escape to the end of the world, but I still can't escape the clutches of you two!"

Cangyunfeng and his team members were stunned by the scene in front of them, and they didn't know what to do.

Yan Gaoliang grabbed Li Jianjun's collar and pushed him down on the stool in the foyer, put a cigarette into his mouth, lit it for him, and asked coldly: "Tell me, what's going on? You Why are you here?"

Li Jianjun took a deep breath from his cigarette and said with a wry smile: "You two bastards, you deceived me so hard! It's all thanks to you that I'm in this situation today! I've been playing eagle all my life, but I didn't expect to be pecked by an eagle in the end. Eye!"

Cang Yunfeng's eyes were a little unkind, and Gao Hongda quickly explained: "This is a big corrupt official. He was the director of a town. He actually bought hundreds of houses and countless cash and gold bars. He tried to trick us half a year ago. As a result, I hit a wall and ran to Myanmar. We are legal businessmen!"

After Cang Yunfeng heard about it, he put down his guard and asked everyone to sit down. He also became very interested in the plight of the hotel owner and decided to be a part of the crowd.

Li Jianjun said with a sad face: "You took me to Myanmar. I worked as a fucking laborer for three months. I didn't even have enough to eat. I was as thin as a fucking monkey! I think I was cruel enough. I didn’t expect you two bastards to be so damn cruel. You laid such a big trap on me.”

Yan Gaoliang was not in the mood to listen to his complaints, and raised his hands to strike. Li Jianjun subconsciously hid back, and then continued: "I have a damn near chance of death. I hid on the shelf of the car chassis where I was pulling bananas all day and night. , I just fucking escaped! I followed the truck entering Tibet and came here. The owner of this hotel took me in. Later, the family went to Chengdu and rented the hotel to me to run it. I didn’t expect you to chase me here!"

Then he raised his head and said very unwillingly: "We didn't have much hatred before, why did you have to put me to death? My money and house are in your hands, what else are you dissatisfied with? In the past six months Over the years, I have deeply reflected on my mistakes. Now I just want to be a good person! I plan to die here from now on. I don’t want to go back, and I won’t be able to enjoy my good fruits if I go back!”

Gao Hongda said coldly: "There are many people who want you to die, but we are not included! We just want to do business honestly and don't want to make enemies with others. If you have reached this stage, I can only say that you have brought it upon yourself." !”

Li Jianjun threw the cigarette butt on the ground, raised his head and let out a long breath and said: "I have made an apology in this life. I have failed my parents, I have failed my children, I have failed the country and the people. You deserve it!"

Then he turned around and said: "If you don't want to kill me, I'm asking you to do me a favor. I have earned a little money in the past three months and have no place to spend it. I beg you two to be kind and help me." I will take the money back to my wife and children, so that they can go to school well and avoid taking detours like me."

Yan Gaoliang said expressionlessly: "You don't have to worry about your wife and children. We provide them with living expenses every month. Although you are unkind, we cannot be unjust!"

Li Jianjun said with gratitude: "Then I thank you! Brothers, I can only repay the kindness in the next life! I don't have anything good here, so I will do it myself and treat you to mutton stew!"

The fat chef said happily: "Oh, it's great. I haven't eaten your mutton for a long time! The mutton in Tibetan areas is all sheep meat, which is not as good as your goat meat!"

Li Jianjun smiled modestly and said: "Brother, thank you. This is kid meat brought from Chengdu. The sheep meat cannot be stewed thoroughly, and foreign tourists are not used to it."

After saying that, he stood up and walked to the kitchen behind the counter as if nothing had happened.
