Chapter 430 Convincing Fang Dong
In the evening, Zheng Pengcheng took Fang Dong away from the educated youth site under the pretext of taking a walk.
The two of them took a walk and ended up in a deserted area of the mountain.
"Brother Fang, what are your plans for the future?"
Fang Dong was stunned. What plans could he make? His family had no way of getting him back to the city, and he couldn't find a way to go back to the city on his own. He could only make do with how he lived.
"What else can I plan? I'll just hang out here and take it one day at a time."
"Brother Fang, you are such a young man, how can you be so decadent? You must make a career."
"I am just an ordinary educated youth sent to the countryside. What kind of career can I achieve?
But Brother Zheng, why do you suddenly ask this? "
"I called home this morning and they told me to prepare to join the army.
I came here originally just for the sake of formality, planning to stay for a while and then join the army and leave.
I originally planned to stay for a year or so, but after taking a look, I felt that it was unnecessary to stay so long and it would be a complete waste of time. I might as well join the army earlier. "
Fang Dong said enviously, "Brother Zheng, I really envy you for being able to join the army.
I wanted to join the army before, but my family didn’t have the connections, so I didn’t go.”
"It's not difficult to join the army. Almost everyone in my family is in the army, and when the younger generation in the family reaches the age, they will be arranged to join the army.
Brother Fang, you want to join the army. It won’t be difficult for my family to get you there.”
Fang Dong was overjoyed when he heard this, and quickly grabbed Zheng Pengcheng's arm, "Brother Zheng, does your family really have a way to get me into the army as well?"
"Hey, this is really not a difficult matter for my family, it's just a matter of a word.
I'm not going to join the army, so it's no big deal to send one more person over.
Besides, if you go with me, you will have someone to look after you. After all, the army is full of cliques and factions, and it will be easier to gain a foothold if there are more people.
Although most of the troops are from my family, I also need to develop my own team. Instead of developing others, I might as well bring you, who I am familiar with, with me."
When Fang Dong heard this, he immediately said excitedly, "Brother Zheng, please tell my family to get me in as well.
I promise that when I get to the army, I will follow your lead. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west. If you tell me to catch a dog, I will never chase a chicken. "
Zheng Pengcheng shook his head and said, "Brother Fang, anyone can say such things, but who can guarantee whether they can do it or not?"
"Brother Zheng, don't worry, as long as you send me to the army, I, Fang Dong, will definitely do what I say.
If you don’t believe me, I can swear it.”
After saying that, Fang Dong raised his hand and was about to swear to the sky.
Zheng Pengcheng quickly stopped him, "Brother Fang, I swear, there is no need to use such childish tricks."
"Brother Zheng, please believe me. I will do what I say and follow your instructions."
"Brother Fang, this guy, once he gets something good, he will forget what he said before."
Fang Dong gritted his teeth and said, "Brother Zheng, tell me, what do you want me to do to trust you and let me join the army?"
Zheng Pengcheng raised his lips slightly, "Do you really want to join the army? Do you really want to obey me in everything?"
"It really couldn't be truer."
"Well, let me test you to see if you really listen to me."
"Brother Zheng, tell me, what do you want me to do?"
“You saw how Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao treated me after I came here.
Before I leave, I want to teach them a little lesson, and I hope you can help me."
When Fang Dong heard that he was going to teach Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao a lesson, he hesitated. After all, these two people were not ordinary people and he could not afford to offend them.
Seeing Fang Dong's retreat, Zheng Pengcheng sneered, "Why, you just said you would listen to me, why do you retreat when it comes to serious matters?
Given your condition, I think I'd better send you to the army and forget about this matter.
If I take you away and you don't obey, I will be very angry."
Having said that, Zheng Pengcheng was about to leave.
Fang Dong quickly pulled him back, "Brother Zheng, Brother Zheng, wait a moment."
"Why, are you planning to help me with this?"
"Brother Zheng, those two people have complicated backgrounds. What if they find out about this and cause trouble for me?"
"Why are you so stupid? Why did you let them know?
As long as you don't say it and I don't say it, how will they know that it was you who harmed them?
You have no grudges against them in the past or in the present, so even if they suspect me, they won’t suspect you.”
"Aren't you afraid that they will suspect you?"
"If they want to suspect me, then they suspect me. We don't get along well to begin with. It's not normal for them to be the first to suspect me when something happens to them.
But so what if they are suspicious? Do they have evidence to prove that it was me who did it?
Without evidence, what can they do to me?”
"They can't do anything to you, but what can they do to me?
If they knew that I was the one who harmed them, they would tear me to pieces."
"How could you be so stupid? You should have been more careful and not let them get the evidence.
As long as you are not caught by them and you have no grudge against them, they will not suspect you.
Even if they suspect you, even if their family has some power, they can't do anything to you. After all, the police are still the ones who solve the case.
When the police solve cases, they rely on evidence.
If it really doesn't work, you can just push it onto me.
I'll help you block it then."
Seeing Fang Dong still looking timid, Zheng Pengcheng shook his head and said, "Forget it. You look so cowardly that you can't even handle such a small matter. I was counting on you to join the army with me.
You'd better go to bed early and give up that idea.
If you were on the battlefield, you would probably be the first to run away.
You should continue to live the same life as before, living in the countryside, being looked down upon by the villagers, being targeted by them, and being isolated by other educated youth.
Anyway, you are just a pile of mud, you can't help yourself, you finally have a chance to change your fate, but you don't know how to cherish it and seize the opportunity. "
After Zheng Pengcheng finished speaking, he walked away.
"Zheng Zhiqing, wait a minute, don't go yet," Fang Dong hurriedly stopped him.
But this time Zheng Pengcheng did not stop as he was told, but continued to walk forward.
Fang Dong was anxious now. He finally had the chance to leave this place, but was it lost just like that?
Is he going to be trapped in the countryside for the rest of his life, working from sunrise to sunset, toiling away every day, with the food he earns not even enough for himself, let alone starting a family and supporting a wife and children?
Fang Dong is obviously a city dweller and should be living a good life in the city, but why did he obey his parents' arrangements and take up the family's quota to come here to work in the countryside?
There are several children in the family, why doesn't others have to go to the countryside, but him?
When they tricked him into coming here, they said they would subsidize him, but when he got here, the subsidy they promised was nowhere to be found.
Every time I wrote back to ask about it, she would complain to him about being poor, saying that the eldest brother had a wife and children to support, the second brother had to spend money to date, and the youngest brother had to go to school, and the family really had no money to subsidize him.
They didn't even think about who he was going to the countryside for.
Thinking of this, and thinking about his future life, Fang Dong overcame the fears in his heart.
"Brother Zheng, I listen to you. Just tell me how you want me to help you teach Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao a lesson."
Hearing Fang Dong's words, Zheng Pengcheng, who was walking in front with his back to Fang Dong, smiled silently.
