Chapter 1466 A Bad Life
A prison in Guangdong Province.
It was eight o'clock in the morning, the time when ordinary companies just started working, but the sewing machine behind the iron bars had been humming for an hour.
The work schedule here is different from outside, and the work attitude and labor income are also different from outside. We work from 7 am to 7 pm and earn 32 cents a day. Everyone is working hard, and the product quality is super good.
Sanshui sat in front of the sewing machine, his two hands moving along with the movement of the sewing machine needles, mechanically pushing the soft fabric together so that it could be accurately sewn together to form a high-quality garment, and then he would change to the next one.
If people only look at the clothes sewn together one by one, they would probably praise "this tailor has such skillful hands", but if they see Sanshui at this moment, they can only say "this person is so miserable".
Sanshui has been in prison for almost ten years. He has changed from a young man in his early twenties to a middle-aged man with the appearance of an old man.
Ten years have made Sanshui's craftsmanship as precise as a machine, but also made his heart as dead as the deep sea.
If nothing unexpected happens, as long as Sanshui works hard and maintains a good attitude to try to get a reduced sentence, he will be able to get out in about ten years. By then, he will be only in his forties, and even if he looks like an old man, he can still enjoy a few decades of life.
But just a few days ago, someone met with Sanshui, which made his heart suddenly become a tangled mess.
Zhang Minchang was Sanshui's "superior" when he traveled by water. He was responsible for providing Sanshui with smuggled motorcycles. Later, Sanshui was handed over to the police, but he did not give the other party up even under strict interrogation.
Sanshui is not loyal, but he is afraid of death.
He will be in prison for a maximum of twenty years, and after he gets out, he will still have his brothers and sisters to rely on. If he gives Zhang Minchang up, he might be reborn someday.
Unexpectedly, ten years passed and none of the brothers and sisters came to visit Sanshui, and this ruthless smuggler became the only one to visit Sanshui.
Zhang Minchang came without hesitation. He first threw out a few newspapers, and then moved Sanshui with just a few words.
[Did you know that the Fenghua clothing you usually process is Hao Jian's business? ]
[Did you know that your former big brother Jin Peng is now a big boss in foreign trade and invested hundreds of millions just to open a factory for his wife?]
[Also, there's Chen Donggou. I remember you all called him Ergou. He's currently the Vice General Manager of Fengyu Electronics, managing tens of thousands of people. He's been named a "Promising Young Man of the New Era." As for the luxury cars and beautiful women, forget about them; they're just a drop in the bucket.]
"Now you have the courage to expose Hao Jian. I will help you apply for medical parole."
After hearing these words, Sanshui thought Zhang Minchang was joking, because the outside world had changed rapidly in the past ten years, but Sanshui inside felt that everything remained unchanged. Both his thinking and cognition were basically still the same as ten years ago.
[Who the hell is Hao Jian? With his clueless brain, even if wealth and fortune fell on him, he wouldn't be able to pick up a single cent.]
"Jin Peng is such a stubborn person. If he hadn't reported me, I could have made millions in just six months. He worked so hard in the clothing business and only made a few bucks? And he even had to share the profits with others. Has he saved up a million now?"
But Sanshui was unwilling to believe it. After reading the newspaper, his hands began to tremble uncontrollably.
There were photos in the newspaper, and he would recognize the people in the photos even if they turned into ashes.
Hao Jian became an outstanding entrepreneur and was interviewed by top bosses.
Jin Peng appeared at the groundbreaking ceremony of Qingshui Aluminum, and the couple took photos with important leaders of Dongshan Province.
What is even more difficult for Sanshui to accept is Ergou.
Ergou, who was nothing at the beginning, was not afraid at all in front of the newspaper reporter's interview, and talked eloquently about the development trend of domestic electronics.
If Hao Jian and Jin Peng are still "incompetent big brothers" in Sanshui's eyes, then Ergou is simply a little jerk who does not need to be looked at seriously.
When Sanshui was already on the right track to make a lot of money, Ergou was just a stupid guy guarding the shop, and was afraid to go out and contact customers.
But now others are doing well outside, while I am a walking corpse inside!
[They are not as good as me, not as good as me. If I go out, I will be better than them all!!!]
The numb Sanshui came back to life, just like when he saw the huge profits from traveling by water, a raging flame of desire ignited in his heart.
"Report, I want to expose it!!!"
“.”
. . . . . . . . . . . . .
Three or four days have passed since Sanshui made his meritorious service and exposed the crime, but he has not yet received any notice of medical parole.
Although Sanshui knew that it usually wouldn't happen that quickly, he had been in prison for ten years and had heard many cases of "betrayal".
Therefore, it is not surprising that if Zhang Minchang used me and finally discarded me like a rag, it would not be surprising.
However, the fire of resentment in Sanshui's heart could not be extinguished, but instead burned more and more fiercely.
Think about it! Ten years ago, those worthless people have become big entrepreneurs, while an elite talent like me is wasting my time behind bars. How unfair is God!
"Zhou Sanshui has been brought to trial."
The supervisor's shout cheered up Sanshui, who was working numbly.
A prison is not a detention center, and retrial is not a normal procedure. A prisoner will not be retried easily. He will only be retried when it is discovered that the original judgment is wrong or new circumstances arise.
After Sanshui was "used for exposure" a few days ago, someone came here once. This time, there must have been new progress, otherwise people would not bother to pay attention to Sanshui.
Behind the stagnant iron bars, an interrogation meant a turning point, so Sanshui followed the guard out silently, but his heart was already filled with joy.
[Boss Zhang is a man of integrity. Jin Peng is a hypocrite, betraying his brothers.]
Sanshui walked into the interrogation room while cursing in his heart.
Then he was stunned, suspecting that he was seeing things.
Because among the interrogators in front of him, there was one he knew and was very familiar with.
Zhao Yuanchao, director of the Qingshui County North Police Station and Li Ye's brother-in-law.
Back then, when Sanshui was hanging out on the streets with Jin Peng, he would often be arrested and locked up for a few days. Zhao Yuanchao rescued Sanshui once for Jin Peng's sake.
But at this moment, Sanshui was not grateful to Zhao Yuanchao at all, because it was Li Ye who led people to send him in ten years ago, and the Qingshui County police came to Guangdong Province for interrogation, which was 99% not a good thing.
Sanshui's heart was beating fast, but he said strangely, "Director Zhao, what brings you here? Am I dreaming? I dream of returning to my hometown of Qingshui."
Zhao Yuanchao glanced at Sanshui coldly and said calmly, "You're not dreaming. We traveled two thousand kilometers just to find you."
Zhao Yuanchao said sternly to the case officer next to him, "Behave yourself. This is Director Zhao. Answer whatever he asks you. Don't speak unless he asks you."
"Director Zhao? Wow, that's a promotion!"
Sanshui still acts like a gangster, because this helps him hide his inner panic.
These investigators are best at suppressing people with their aura. If you show any fear, they will kill you in minutes.
Zhao Yuanchao said calmly, "Sanshui, has anyone come to see you recently?"
Sanshui squinted his eyes and said, "Looking for me? Who would come to see me, someone who is not loved by my grandma and uncle? It's really kind of Director Zhao to come all the way to see me."
Zhao Yuanchao chuckled and said, "According to the confessions of your eldest and second brothers, between 1982 and 1983, you engaged in smuggling activities with Zhao Zhengwei, Zhang Minchang and others.
Among them, Zhao Zhengwei was arrested in 1987. According to his confession, you have many crimes that have not been clearly explained, so we have decided to reopen the investigation into the June 27 smuggling case."
Sanshui was confused.
He'd already served ten years in prison, and yet his case was being reopened? Was this just a stab in the back?
However, Sanshui immediately came to his senses and realized that this matter must be related to Zhang Minchang's "brave revelation".
[I'm just a worthless person, why are you picking on me and making trouble for me? ]
