Volume 1: The End of the World, Flattering
Ten minutes before the curfew, Ye Te leisurely walked into the gate of the camp, covered in mud and water. There was a person in front of him, holding a wooden stick in his hand and limping ugly. That was Jiang Yilong. When he passed the construction site where the shooting range was converted into a production area
, he stumbled and stepped into a pit. His foot was injured and he was still dangling. He would only let people help carry the gun and backpack, and refused to accept support. He had no choice but to watch over the prisoner and slowly walked away. This was the slowest walk in his life.
It took two hours to walk five kilometers.
"No need to go to the infirmary?"
"No, sir. It's just a minor sprain. I'll take care of it and make sure you don't fall behind in the 5,000 meters tomorrow morning."
Amid applause, he passed the infirmary. Jiang Yilong refused to treat his injured foot, and Ye Te was too lazy to persuade him. Unexpectedly, Dr. Chen came out of the infirmary. He asked Jiang Yilong: "Hey, Hongdou boy, your face is rotten."
Are your feet rotten too?"
"Your face is rotten, but the one below is even worse." Jiang Yilong has a sharp mouth on his acne-prone face.
The hundreds of people who greeted him laughed evilly and started to stir up trouble. After the camp was set up, all the personnel had a physical examination, and the two had a quarrel. Dr. Chen had something wrong, Jiang Yilong laughed at the curvy man for going too far, and Xing Datong intervened. This ended.
By that time, Zhang Wei was exhausted and just glared at Jiang Yilong. Otherwise, conflict would be inevitable.
Dr. Chen felt frustrated, hugged Ye Te's arm and said coquettishly: "Sir, he molested me."
"Shut up! I'm a straight man, I won't be disrespectful if I kneel down or lick you." Jiang Yilong didn't suffer at all.
Ye Te was so fed up that he took Jiang Yilong's wooden stick as a crutch, threw it on the roof, and yelled: "Get out of here!"
"Wow...it looks good! Great job, sir!"
It’s hard to pass the time on a deserted island, and there are unexpected little quarrels. The onlookers seem to have taken stimulants, the old seaman takes the lead in cheering, and the echoers scream and whistle. The scene is like a sports match. In other words, it’s like
Encourage Jiang Yilong to rise up and have a fight with Ye Te.
"Good night, sir." Jiang Yilong was not annoyed, turned around and jumped away.
The onlookers booed in disappointment and watched helplessly as the guy jumped to the dormitory on one foot.
"Giggle..." Dr. Chen smiled happily like a little girl.
The crowd burst into laughter again, still unwilling to leave. Xing Datong blew the whistle to drive away, and the beasts finally dispersed. If you were outdoors after the 11 o'clock curfew, you would be fined if you were put in solitary confinement. Dr. Chen swayed three times and followed her boyfriend. Moman didn't bother to keep quiet.
To please the boss, get out of the way with Xing Datong.
When all the people were gone, Xing Datong approached Ye Te and passed the cigarette and asked: "Sir, have you found any natives?"
He also asked this question when the sailor team returned from field training last time. Ye Te took the cigarette and approached the lighter he was lighting. When he saw that he wanted to smoke, he stuffed it back into the cigarette case. He said with a smile: "If you want to smoke, smoke now. You have to quit smoking tomorrow."
.”
"Ah...I, I'd better stop smoking." Xing Datong put away the cigarette case with determination.
"I found two abandoned residences of the natives." Ye Te answered the question, pointing with the hand holding the cigarette, "I don't know when they were left in the woods to the east and northeast. Alas, luckily there were road signs, otherwise I would have been in the woods tonight
I’m a savage here!”
"Sir..."
Ye Te and Xing Datong didn't even exchange a word. Su Ming, Qi Guoqiang, and Huang Yafa hurried over. The three of them had been at the command post, chatting and replying to Ye Te's comments, but they didn't want to join in the fun. Ye Te threw away the cigarette that he had only taken two puffs of, and put it away.
Waving his hands, he said: "It's almost curfew, good night everyone, see you tomorrow!"
I set out at eight in the morning and walked around the forest for two or thirty kilometers. I was tired, so how could I think about work?
Yete wanted to take a shower, eat, and sleep as soon as possible. He strode deeper into the camp, instead of going back to the dormitory, and headed towards the water. He made an appointment with his second uncle for dinner, but instead had a midnight snack.
Lao Ye hosted a banquet on the catamaran, and he planned to take a hot bath. The dormitory did not provide hot water, so he had to go to the public bathroom to take hot water. He had a habit of taking cold baths and never used it. Today's exertion did not reach the physical limit, so it was not far behind. Far, I feel the need to take hot water to relax my muscles.
"I took off my coat, boots, and socks. I just mopped the floor with the help of the logistics team today."
On the back deck of the catamaran yacht, Lao Ye changed his image. His long hair was neatly turned back, his messy beard was neatly trimmed, and he stood up with the collar of his US military coat, looking like a complete old yuppie. Perhaps he got angry after waiting for a long time and deliberately made things difficult.
Ye Te glanced at the plastic bags, slippers, and bathrobes on the boarding board, smiled wryly, took off his clothes, and "escaped" in the forest, "hunted for treasure" in the forest, and "drilled holes" in the muddy water, from head to toe, from the inside out. , it is indeed extremely dirty.
The large warship began to be repaired, and Lao Ye had to move. He still did not go ashore, but moved directly to his yacht.
"Boss, I'm swimming naked, do you want to accompany me?"
Li Dongmin came up laughing and joking, followed by Shen Chao and others. Ye Te took off his underwear and turned around angrily: "You are looking for death. What time is it? Let's go to the second and third cabinets to spend the night together?"
"Ugh..." Li Dongmin wailed exaggeratedly, "Today it's our fleet's turn to keep vigil. If you don't believe me, ask Old Lin... ah, ask Chief Lin."
Ye Te didn't want to let him go, and snorted coldly: "Speaking of naked swimming, you reminded me. Starting from tomorrow, we will add a training content. Each person will swim five hundred meters a day. Those who can't swim will go to school immediately. Navy veteran Become a coach until all men have learned it." He remembered Su Ming's statistics that dozens of grown men were landlubbers.
Li Dongmin was dumbfounded, and it was his old comrade and deputy squad leader Shen Chao's turn to cry out: "I'm sorry! Big mouth, can your mouth be any worse? Do you know how cold the water is now?"
"I won't talk about the morning and evening swimming training." Li Dongmin thought very openly, "Boss, let me tell you something, Lao Shen and I are the captains of the two barges." He didn't come here to get close or to joke.
The captain of the barge was ignored, and the news spread among the seamen. The three supervisors were very hurt about this, and they were scolded today. Now someone came forward, and Yate was quite surprised. He put on his bathrobe, waved his hands in disbelief, and said: "Here you come, sir." , Lao Li. Tell me something else, oh, have you put my gun and backpack in storage?"
"Not only yours, but everyone's has been handed over to Shunzi for inventory. Chief Lin also helped in the weapons depot, so I was able to leave." Li Dongmin replied patiently and emphasized again: "Boss, we are serious. If the barge captain Someone already acted like I didn’t say anything.”
Ye Te looked at the two guys up and down for a while and said, "Okay, I believe you are serious for the time being. Is it necessary to ask, are you qualified?"
"It's not necessary." Li Dongmin said carelessly, "I, Lao Li, dare to do any stupid things, and I will never commit suicide or seek death, just like Lao Shen. Otherwise, the two of us would have been in trouble."
Yate crossed his arms in front of his chest and asked, "Unconditionally?"
"There are conditions, hehe..." Li Dongmin laughed slyly, "It's not a condition. It's a small request. I hope Xing Datong and Jiang Yilong can be our sailors."
Everyone knows that this guy has nothing to do with Jiang Yilong and Xing Datong. He wants to work as a subordinate on his own ship and make casual repairs. It is too self-righteous.
Ye Te's eyes were cold and he put on his slippers without saying a word. He carried a plastic bag with dirty clothes in his hand and walked on board the boat. When he turned around and saw that a few people on the shore were not moving, he took out his pistol from the plastic bag and shouted: "Get out, wait for me to shoot." Farewell?"
He cannot give all his weapons to others and always keeps a pistol with him.
"Hey, boss!" Li Dongmin raised his hands, and Shen Chao and others also raised their hands, "You're kidding, don't mention me, don't mention me! Lao Shen and I seriously applied to be barge captains, and the personnel requirement is for newcomers. We have our choice of carpenters and plumbers, otherwise we won’t be able to build two barges, that’s the only requirement.”
It sounded like that, and there was no mention of "abusing power for personal gain." Ye Te's face softened, he put away his gun and said: "Tomorrow's morning meeting, I will repeat what I just said. Is it clear?"
"It's clear, sir! Good night, sir." Li Dongmin and Shen Chao stood at attention and saluted.
A few guys jumped on the speedboat by the water and drove away. Old Ye Youyou, who was sitting on the deck chair, said: "I'm giving you help in times of need, and I deliberately don't let you appreciate it. Such flattery... I underestimated Li Dongmin before."
The captain of the barge was ignored, reflecting the seafarers' distrust, disapproval, and lack of cooperation. On the surface, the three supervisors were incompetent. In fact, it was Yate who was embarrassed. At this time, someone was urgently needed to save the situation, and Li Dongmin wisely stepped forward. Go out. I will take the initiative to ask for help tomorrow morning. It would be strange if the boss has a bright face and does not feel any points in his heart. Tonight, I deliberately used Jiang Yilong and Xing Datong to talk about things. I will be a villain first. Let the boss feel comfortable and grateful, so as not to feel indebted. Too many. Moman was right, Li Dongmin's flattery skills have improved rapidly.
"No matter how small you look, that guy is still 1.8 meters tall. Ugh... I need to take a hot shower right away!"
Ye Te didn't want to waste too much time on the petty things. Meimei took a hot bath and put on the pajamas prepared by Ye. Her fatigue disappeared a lot, and she felt like she was home.
In the living room, Lao Ye was opening a bottle of Remy Martin XO. Looking at the dishes, he said to his energetic nephew, "I wonder if you are particular about pairing this wine with it?"
"As long as it's an alcoholic drink, I need to drink a few hundred grams."
Ye Te Damajin Dao sat down, looked at the dishes on the table clearly, opened his eyes and shouted: "Oh my God, this is... lobster? No, it's crab. I forgot what it's called. I've eaten it before."
"King crab." Lao Ye said while pouring wine. "Xiao Tu caught it this morning. It was specially given to me... no, specially given to you for drinking." Tierra del Fuego is rich in king crabs. It is not difficult to catch them if you have a boat and time. .
Ye Te ignored everything and took off a crab leg that looked like an octopus leg and chewed it clean before speaking: "That guy is dishonest in exploiting seal skins and dares to bribe the superior?"
"Don't eat it!" Lao Ye said.
By pleasing the boss, Lao Ye also benefited. The restaurant opened a "small pot rice" service for a fee, and the uncle and nephew set an example. When having private dinners, they did not take "expensive" meat, but only free seal meat or fish. Therefore, they gave king crabs to please them. Quite right.
Xiao Tu is naturally the bad chef Tu Wei, a little transparent among sailors, and a strange person. A few days ago, Su Ming completed the video file of the sailors, and Tu Wei's is the most interesting. Standard Mandarin, Cantonese vernacular, English , self-introduction in four Spanish languages is nothing, the content is amazing.
A resident of Hong Kong and Kowloon, a master's degree graduate from the University of Hong Kong, a former manager of the "Sea Supermarket" Beijing-Tianjin Company, Abeto's former assistant and a friend of Abeto's son, he was exiled to the "cold storage" of the fleet because he witnessed Abeto's son murder.
A few people who are qualified to look at the files are impressed by Lei's skin, which is charred and tender. In my impression, this guy is not a good cook, but his skills in butchering seals, whether it is cutting the meat or skinning, can be called a professional butcher. Not to mention a master's degree from the University of Hong Kong, and "noble"
"The people of Hong Kong and Kowloon have no boundaries at all.
"You're not a master, why don't you write a report?" Ye Te teased.
Lao Ye asked back: "Would you read the report?"
Yete was mute, and he couldn't even finish Moman's report.
Climbing up by writing reports is basically a dead end. Military training and training are dually managed, with veterans in the former and sailors in the latter. Moman is a special case, and there can no longer be an "official position". Tu Wei did not follow the trend, but he is still shrewd.
Contracted to clean up seal carcasses, you have a speedboat, subordinates and freedom. Occasionally, you flatter the boss and give him favors, and you can still become familiar with him.
"By the way, Xiao Tu has exploited hundreds of seal skins. I wanted to ask you for the bribe, who will the seal skins belong to in the future?" Lao Ye was short-tongued and faithfully helped pass on the message.
"I'll ask Lao Su to tell him later!"
Ye Te didn't care about this kind of thing. He grabbed chopsticks and ate several pieces of seal meat, shouting loudly: "Yeah! I bit off my tongue. Second uncle, I didn't expect that you are so good at your craftsmanship?" Old Ye shook his head and said, "It's not me.
Qin Nana brought someone to help with the cleaning in the afternoon and made it by the way."
"Hahaha, there is adultery. Love, there is adultery. Love!" Ye Te's teasing eyes smiled at Lao Ye's new look, "Second uncle, hurry up and tell a story. Reduced to the end of the world, entertainment is rare, and the working people have the right to know
Tell me about the romantic affair of the capitalist, have you hooked up with her before?" He made a small match-up, and it seems that there is a way.
Lao Ye Dun put the bottle of wine on the table and said with feigned anger: "You little gangster, what are you talking about? Her man has a relationship with me and introduced her to me. My house in Los Angeles is not too far from her house.
I was invited to dinner parties once or twice. Seriously, not only was there no friendship, but it was also a holiday. One of my companies went public, and her man bought a lot of original shares at a low price in her name, and defrauded me severely. This is
Such bad luck, even if her man falls, all he can do is lose his teeth and swallow his blood."
"It's not exciting, it's not exciting!" Ye Te took a big sip of the wine.
It’s not just a joke, he sincerely hopes that the second uncle will get out of his single life. On the day he landed, Lao Ye confided the reason for the pain in his heart, which was a positive expression. But don’t think that you can get out of the pain by talking once or twice. Many people are stuck in it all their lives.
, passed away with pain. Lao Ye was fifty-seven but not fifty-eight, so it would be harmless to meet the second spring. Qin Nana was in her early forties, and the previous man was not much younger than Lao Ye. The two old acquaintances met in different time and space.
