Chapter 218: Desolate
In the following half month, more than a dozen of Ning Yuan's buddies were sent to join the army by their families.
The rest basically failed to pass the review like Ning Yuan and his team.
The people from the street office did not give up. They tried to persuade these young people to go to the countryside and explain it to them, but if they couldn't make sense, they would go to their homes.
Almost all of these remaining guys have elders in their families who have been quarantined for investigation!
Once the subdistrict office communicated with the other side, the quarantine and inspection compound really started to take action.
A few days later, Ning Yuan discovered that the brothers Liu Ping and Liu An, as well as Hu Youzhi and seven or eight other buddies from the Air Force compound, had all signed a volunteer form to go to the countryside under coercion and inducement.
This is too much. Although Ning Yuan knew that this matter was almost unavoidable under the strong pressure from all parties.
But if we can allow everyone to go to the countryside as late as possible, then do it as late as possible. The later the time, the more protection the educated youth will have in all aspects.
Therefore, Ning Yuan brought his brothers back to Courtyard No. 2 in Shen District that day and found Liu Ping, Liu An and others.
When Ning Yuan saw the two brothers, he was also surprised. It was obvious that their house had been searched.
Originally, only his father was arrested in their family, but when I asked today, I found out that their mother was also arrested two days ago.
The conditions for release are also very simple, that is, they go to the countryside and must obey regional deployment.
Liu Ping and his brother also knew that in this situation, no matter who came, it would be useless.
Didn’t Ning Yuan simply defy the people in the quarantine center and allow visitors on New Year’s Eve?
Rescue and save people?
It’s not that it can’t be done, but it’s meaningless.
What if they robbed him? What if the whole family was wanted? What if they were caught again after a while?
Both brothers understood, so since it was useless to tell Ning Yuan, there was no need to bother this guy anymore.
They have been following Ning Yuan for quite a long time, eating, drinking, having fun, fighting and showing off their authority, which is pretty comfortable!
Hu Youzhi and his group all had similar ideas.
After hearing all this, Ning Yuan fell silent.
At present, all the bad guys in the old city have either been arrested or forced by their families to serve in the army. Many more have been forced to go to the countryside because of the repeated troubles of the street office.
The method is very simple, just deducting food stamps is enough.
After all, not everyone has a backer as wealthy as Ning Yuan.
Most of the young people in the compound also had no food to eat.
Therefore, even if he wanted to gather thousands of people to surround the quarantine compound like he did on New Year's Eve, he couldn't do it.
More than half of the people are gone!
Ning Yuan always thought that he should be able to at least hold off until this year, or even go to the countryside next year.
I didn't expect that these people would do anything to achieve that little bit of progress.
Liu Ping and Liu An looked at Ning Yuan with a depressed look and could only pretend to be relaxed.
"Brother Yuan, why are you so serious? It's just a trip to the countryside, so what? We've been through everything, so why should we be afraid of those barbarians from the countryside?"
Ning Yuan also smiled after listening to it.
Then, in front of everyone, he took out twenty big unity notes, stuffed a hundred yuan into each of the two brothers' pockets, then he sighed, patted his brothers on the shoulders, and left with his brothers.
It’s not that Ning Yuan is reluctant to give them more, but giving them more is really useless.
First of all, when they go to the countryside, they are not like here, where they can buy things on the black market with money.
There is almost no liquidity of supplies in the countryside. There are no food coupons, cloth coupons, oil coupons, meat coupons, etc. Even if they have money, they can't buy anything. They really can't buy anything!
This hundred yuan is enough for them to buy themselves some good clothes, bedding and daily necessities for the next two days. In addition, it is also enough for them to buy some food and drinks.
Even this is not enough to spend, they bought too much and they can’t carry it all!
The brothers Liu Ping and Liu An took the money that Ning Yuan forced upon them and smiled foolishly for a while.
Seeing Ning Yuan sigh and pat their shoulders, his smile finally disappeared.
We are not fools, and everyone knows what the conditions are like when we go to the countryside!
It’s not as easy as they said, so wait until Ning Yuan and the others turned around and left.
The brothers Liu Ping and Liu An couldn't take their eyes off each other for a long time.
The two brothers watched them leave the house and the yard, and only after they could no longer see Ning Yuan and the others did they look at each other.
Full of tears!
The family was scattered, the parents were arrested, the future was uncertain, and they had to leave their homeland!
They used to be arrogant and domineering, always quarreling and fighting, but at this moment, they were just young boys who had just reached adulthood!
Ning Yuan doesn’t want to keep them!
There really was no other way. They had signed the application to go to the countryside, and even if they found Director Huang Yao, they might not be able to stay, let alone him.
Don't leave? I'll use some horrible tricks on you!
Ning Yuan brought Zhong Yuemin, Yuan Jun, Zheng Tong, Fatty Fan and others and rode bicycles to the Air Force compound.
He also called out seven or eight of Hu Youzhi's friends.
He still gave each of them a hundred yuan. Ning Yuan didn't have anything else to say. He could only hope that the little money he gave them could help them get through the most difficult time.
In the end, all you have to do is survive! If you survive, you’ll have another chance to meet again in the future!
These guys are a foregone conclusion, and Ning Yuan is powerless to change it.
But Ning Yuan emphasized again about the remaining forty or so brothers.
No matter what, you must hold on. If there is anything you can't solve, you must tell him in advance.
They have been brothers for so long, Ning Yuan can't just ignore them.
As the people from the street office became more and more aggressive, Ning Yuan also began to get anxious.
He has always wanted to use his connections to get all his friends into a slightly better place.
But he still had no clue, and the current situation forced him to hurry up and find a solution.
After explaining things to Hu Youzhi and his buddies, Ning Yuan led the remaining brothers all the way towards Xizhimen Xiebian Hutong!
I don’t know if they felt depressed because of the separations they experienced today, or if the environment was really like this.
As we walked along, the city of Beijing seemed to have become much more depressed.
There was no more noise and shouting from the old days, no more quarrels, and even the street vendors were nowhere to be seen.
The weather is still hot, but it makes people feel depressed.
Ning Yuan and his companions no longer had their former flamboyance and joy along the way.
I rode quietly to the fifth courtyard of Xiebian Hutong.
Ning Yuan stopped his bicycle and saw a person standing at the gate of the yard.
He was standing alone at the gate of the yard, holding a small box.
Is it Meng Qing? Why would this girl be so shameless as to come to me? Is there a short knife or something else going on?
(There is still one chapter that may be late, brothers, if you can’t, just sleep first and read it tomorrow! It must be posted before 12 o’clock today!)
