Under night.
The lights were on.
She sat motionless with her hands on her knees.
Her surname is Yu, Han nationality, no, it should be said to be Kokang here. She graduated from Yangon University and studied education and law.
The reason why he was willing to accept my offer and came to Menneng was, in addition to the high salary, the opportunities that existed in northern Myanmar.
She wanted to rush into this torrent, to feel the shock of history, and to leave a strong mark on that meager history book, even if it was just one stroke.
"Teacher Yu, how do you feel about being in a new position?"
As I spoke, I easily picked up the vegetables and put them in my mouth before saying, "You should eat too."
"Oh no."
Teacher Yu picked up the chopsticks and stared at the dishes on the table, without any intention of eating.
"No need to speculate on my intentions, today is just for eating."
After I finished speaking casually, I gave Xiaoxiao a wink.
This was the first time that Xiaoxiao showed her intelligence. She immediately got up and went to the refrigerator to take out an alcoholic drink that girls loved, which seemed to be fruit wine brewed from mangoes.
The two of them poured a glass each, added enough ice cubes, and then said: "Don't be nervous, he is not as scary as you think. Come on, have a drink with me today."
Can Teacher Yu be able to refuse?
Even though she knew that my purpose was to relax her and let her express what was on her mind, she still had to drink.
Teacher Yu picked up the wine glass, albeit reluctantly.
Yes, Teacher Yu smiled very reluctantly. She picked up the wine glass and bowed her body to clink the glass with Xiaoxiao, then took a big sip, and then turned to look at me.
Only then did I say: "The current situation is huge, with too many people, too many goods, and chaotic management."
"There should be a rule for all these things..." I took a sip of white wine and said, "What I mean is, we don't want the hidden rules like before, we need explicit rules that can be posted on the big white wall."
"I shouldn't be the one to bring up this kind of thing, do you understand what I mean?"
Teacher Yu nodded, but still did not dare to raise his voice and said: "What you mean is that you hope to transform Meng Neng into a city that can operate regardless of your presence or absence."
"Yes!"
I stretched out my index finger and tapped her in the air, smacking my lips in appreciation: "Tsk, you have to be an intellectual to understand what I'm talking about."
"But now, there is no such an environment."
"After encountering trouble, all officials retreat, fearing that they will be shot first."
Teacher Yu might have been drunk, so he said: "Didn't it happen that when Lao Qiao was here, there were too many things like 'killing an enemy at the last moment without any success, and holding on to the city without any help' happened too many times?"
"You also know Lao Qiao?"
"I heard about it when I first came here. Now in the restaurants on Menneng Street, anyone who picks up a cup can say something."
I think of the former big gangster in our city, who collapsed after being severely punished in 1983. But when he mentioned someone who was awesome in society, he would still move him out, as if he had seen each one with his own eyes, and recounted his deeds. The description is vivid.
"You have to find a way, right?"
This is when I really test the teacher!
I can't give you power just because I brought you up for no reason, right? You have to take a test after all!
Just as Teacher Yu was about to open her mouth, she immediately closed it and looked at me warily...
Xiaoxiao picked up the wine glass again: "Come on, let's take another sip."
I raised my chin towards Xiaoxiao.
Xiaoxiao put down her wine glass and got up and went back to the house, leaving the entire living room to the two of us.
At this moment, I opened my mouth and said: "If you say what you say today in this room, it will be scattered in this room..."
Teacher Yu stopped me and said, "I'm not afraid of this."
"Are you afraid that I would give up my car to save my handsome boss at an important moment?"
Teacher Yu didn't even dare to answer and looked at me.
As the saying goes, being with a king is like being with a tiger. If I hadn't made it clear today, she would never have given any answer, and she would never have mentioned it in her life.
Then, let’s just talk a little bit more clearly.
"You know what I think?"
Teacher Yu lowered his head and said in a deep voice: "If you want to stand in front and lead everyone forward with a medal of honor in one hand and banknotes in the other, what you need most is someone behind with a gun in one hand and a whip in the other. Whoever falls behind?" If you can't move, give them a whip; if they can't move anymore, shoot them directly and drive them forward."
She finally had emotions: "But this is what I'm afraid of."
"When the time comes, everyone will be grateful to you, but hate me to the core...I..."
I looked at Teacher Yu: "Then why don't you leave?"
"After you came back from the mountains, I didn't put you in jail, right?"
"After transferring you out of school, didn't you enthusiastically set up the Solemnity Bureau?"
"Look at your custom-made uniforms. Each of you is wearing a small black suit, the same color (shai) as the God of Death carrying a scythe. Won't you look majestic no matter where you go to investigate a case?"
Teacher Yu stopped talking and lowered his head again.
I smiled evilly from an angle she couldn't see: "Can't you speak?"
"Then let me tell you and listen."
"You actually want to leave."
"I don't believe there is any woman who is not afraid of being able to fight. Even when I saw Burea holding a gun and shooting at the soldiers from Eastern Shan State, I felt so fucking trembled in my heart."
"But what will you be after you leave?"
"In Yangon, you are just an ordinary college student. The most you can find a job is to work as a clerk in a company's office. You may live a nine-to-five life earning 'faith money' even if you are scolded by your boss."
I picked up the wine glass and thought of myself on the construction site. At that time, I was not as good as others.
After taking a sip of strong wine, the burning sensation in the entire esophagus made people extremely comfortable, and then he spoke again: "But what about Menneng?"
"You are Kochi who I look up to in a special light; after putting on the uniform, you are a law enforcer who speaks out for the common people; as long as I can continue to win, even if I lose more miserably in the end, there will be a mark in the history books..."
"I have to say that in the Meng Neng camp, there were four beams and eight pillars. Who is the Yingmen Liang and who is the Bai Yuzhu? Sooner or later your name will be mentioned."
"Right?"
Teacher Yu didn't reply. He lowered his head and picked up the wine glass. He threw it on the ground with a raised hand. He grabbed the liquor bottle and poured half a cup for himself. He drank it in one gulp: "Hi~ha!" Then he gasped loudly. gas.
"You want a chance, but you hesitate when I give it to you;"
"You want to be remembered in history, but you run away when you can move forward bravely."
"Is this what your teacher taught you?"
"He told you that people can make great achievements in an environment without any danger?"
"Then haven't you watched the famous people in the history books as movies? Except for the one thing that everyone will say, 'I can do it if I go,' you can't do anything else."
Teacher Yu looked up at me very dissatisfied, with bloodshot eyes in his eyes.
"Did I make a mistake?" I asked, "In the mountains, when I need someone to carry things and attract firepower, you can't carry it, so you grab the car and run away;"
"Okay, you are a civil servant and can't go to the battlefield. Isn't it a battlefield now?"
"Aren't you still timid?"
I watched Teacher Yu grab my wine bottle, refill myself a half cup and drink it in one gulp, and then began to repeat this action without interruption, then stood up silently and walked into the room.
I know that that night I have crushed her moonlight and ideals together, put them into her heart, and told her that nobleness is not actually that noble, and inferiority is not actually that inferior. I tore it apart easily. understand her three views.
She also told her that if a lowly person does things based on noble ideals, it will be called insufficient power; if a noble person does lowly things, it will be called high-minded but low-handed...
In fact, I didn't tell her anything, but I sincerely hoped that she would realize something.
Have you talked to the leader?
It's the kind of person who, after scolding you loudly in the office, has to say: "Actually, that's not what I meant."
Yes, that's it. (End of chapter)
