Chapter 33 33. See Baolin again

One year, my uncle's son married a wife and held a wedding in his hometown. I borrowed a good car and rushed back to attend the wedding. By the way, I was the first car to pull the bride. I met Baolin while drinking the wedding wine.Baolin, as I wrote before, is a distant relative from my mother’s side. At that time, he partnered with others to make thousands of money for me, and I hated him very much. But after all, they are still relatives, and things on the surface have to be passed.When they met, they greeted each other, and then sat at a table to drink.Back home, pretending to be aggressive is a must.I distributed the business card that Xiao Xing printed for me everywhere. The title on the business card was Deputy General Manager.

Baolin sat beside me, looked at my business card carefully, and said with a sigh: "Okay, third child. You're doing well." I deliberately said modestly: "It's average, it's average." I heard that I was in the city I bought a house and a car, and even when the bride’s car was mine, he asked me enviously: "My third son, your car is at least 1 million?" I said, "1.8 million naked car, Including taxes and formalities, the money is more than 2 million." I deliberately said lightly, but I was really not sure.Baolin was so envious that he took my hand and talked endlessly.

He said that when he used to gamble in the town, he was also cheated.I said in my heart: Who will believe it?You're the one who lied to me.But I didn’t say that in my mouth. I said: “Fortunately, I ran away at that time, so I got into this state now. People, they were all forced out. If they didn’t lose the bet and run away at that time, they are probably just a bunch of people now. Material for going fishing. I have to thank the money I lost at that time.” Over the years, Baolin has built two 80-horsepower fishing boats, mainly pulling bottom nets offshore.Pull bottom net is pull clam, a kind of shell in the sea mud.According to my uncle, Haineng once earned nearly 20,000 yuan.Over the past few years, Baolin made his fortune relying on these two boats, and built a small two-story building in the town.

I said to Baolin: "The business I am doing now has contacts with the Maritime Safety Administration, border defense, port supervision, fishery supervision, and fishery administration. In the future, if you need anything on your boat, come to me. Me and those leaders I'm very familiar with you." These words are very bragging, do they know who I am?What's more, I'm just a name, and I never go to work.But I have to brag, one is to earn a little envy among relatives, and the other is that I hope that one day Baolin will come to me to do business, and maybe I can find some people to beat him up.

Maybe the name of the company on my business card and my bragging played a role. Baolin said that I really need my help.He said that his fishing boats are often inspected and fined by the fishery administration and fishery supervision during operations.Because his ship's certificates didn't match and all crew members' certificates had expired. The qualification certificate he mentioned is actually two concepts of the seaman's qualification certificate I mentioned.All certificates of seafarers are issued by the Maritime Safety Administration, while the qualification certificates of those on board other fishing vessels are issued by the Fishery Supervision.I still learned a little bit of business from Xiao Xing, and I learned a little bit, so I just followed his words and bragged.Seeing that I was speaking clearly and logically, he clinked glasses with me again and again, as if he had found someone who could help him a lot.

The drink lasted until the evening.When we parted, Paulin took my hand and told me to help him no matter what.He'll bring the crew's qualification certificate tomorrow to see if I can change it for him.Baolin said: "Expired certificates need to be replaced with new ones, and training and examinations must be taken. You see, my boat can't stop for a day. How much does it cost to stop for a day? Please help me, the third child. I will pay for gifts. Help me ask." I agreed without hesitation, thinking: If I can't beat you up, it's not bad to cheat you two. When I came home at night, my mother said to me: "Stay away from Baolin, you haven't been cheated enough by him before? How can you eat a hundred beans and not know what the taste of beans is?" I told my mother: " What nonsense are you talking about, mother? He asked me to help him change the certificate, and I also earned two fees for the transaction. How could I be cheated?" My mother was still worried, and asked me to be careful not to be deceived again. Baolin pit.My mother said: "He is too bad, he lied to you at the beginning. San'er, you must be careful!" I agreed with my mouth, and said in my heart: Mom, Baolin is a bad ass, and I am your son. It's the bad guys.See if I don't kill him.

Early the next morning, Baolin showed me the expired certificates of the crew members who worked on his fishing boat, and I readily agreed.In order to gain his trust, I told him not to give me money first.I said to consult with the certificate first, and if I need money, I will put it first.He went back happily.My mother complained to me again, saying that I should not help him.But how could my mother know what was on my mind? According to my way of thinking, I said it was done and let him come to the city to get it, and I asked someone to beat him up.But I still consulted Xiao Xing, Xiao Xing helped to inquire, and said that the certificate has expired, and it can be replaced for free within one year. There is no need to take the exam and training, and only need to pay a cost of 10 yuan.Seeing such a good thing, I asked Xiao Xing to help replace the new certificate.Later, I called Baolin, bragging about how well I had a good relationship with the director of their fishery supervisor, and I got the new certificate without training or exams.Baolin was very happy when he heard that, and sent someone to the city to find me to get the certificate that day.

I thought he would come, but he didn't come, which made me very depressed.But since I have come to take it, I have to give it away.I pretended to be generous once, and gave the certificate to the person he called without asking for money.There is still a chance, isn't it? I remember Baolin told me that his ship's certificate did not match.I had to do him a favor and gain his trust.When handing over the certificate to the person he sent, I called Baolin and asked him in detail why the certificate did not match, and I could help him with it. Baolin said: "I am an 80-horsepower fishing boat, but I have the procedures for a 45-horsepower fishing boat." It turned out that when Baolin bought the boat, he bought a boat without procedures. Bought from someone else.He wanted to go through the formalities for his own ship, but the whole province was closed.Moreover, there are regulations in the province now that fishing vessels that have reached the end of their lifespan must be scrapped forcibly, and no household registration will be granted to newly built fishing vessels.

I asked Baolin: "In this case, why don't you go through the procedures for buying an 80-horsepower fishing boat? Why do you buy a 45-horsepower fishing boat?" Baolin said, "The 80-horsepower boat is not sold at all. If you can buy a 45-horsepower fishing boat, you can buy it. Not bad." Baolin also said: "There are boats and procedures, so the country will subsidize fuel oil every year, which is a lot of money a year." It turned out to be like this.He said a lot more specifically, but I don’t remember it now. My original intention was not to apply for a certificate for him, and I don’t have that ability. I just want to meet him.I said in a big way that I knew someone, and he could bring the certificate, and I would ask for it.Baolin said yes, he will come to the city when he has time.

After waiting for more than a month, Baolin did not move.Sometimes I can't help but want to call him, but I give up every time I pick up the phone.Let's not do things that take the initiative to get on the pole, let him come to me.Anyway, he has seen my ability to handle affairs, and I believe he will continue to come to me. One day when I was gambling, Baolin called and said that he was in town and wanted to meet with me to discuss the certificate.I hurriedly packed up my winnings and went to see him.Because I learned that his two certificates were very valuable, I decided not to find someone to beat him up, but to cheat the certificates first.

When we met, Baolin showed me the two certificates like treasures, saying that he bought the certificates for more than 300,000 yuan.I looked at the certificate deliberately pretending to understand it, which showed the pair of ships (two ships operating together), ship number, port, place of origin, and owner, but I didn’t understand anything else.He said that the ship on the certificate was scrapped at the end of its lifespan, and the owner sold the certificate. Now many fishing vessels can only use other people's procedures.It's just that his horsepower does not match, so he is always fined. I deliberately picked up the phone in front of him and hung up on Xiao Hai.Xiao Hai is my best partner, our cooperation is always perfect.I purposely put the phone close to Paulin's ear so that he could listen too.I said, "Director Wang? I'm the third child." I must say first, and I heard from Xiao Xing that a director of the Fishery Supervision Department was indeed surnamed Wang. Xiao Hai over there said: "Yes, it's me. You are the third child, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you don't come to see brother when you get rich." I knew Xiao Hai would not let me off the hook.I exchanged a few words with Xiaohai, and got to the point: "Director Wang, a relative in my family has two boats, but they have taken other people's procedures. The boat has no certificate, can you help me?" Xiaohai Maybe he doesn't know much about this business, but he answered very well.He said: "I'm in a meeting. In this way, let's meet someday when we have time." I quickly said: "Okay, Director Wang, you must call me when you are not busy." Xiao Hai added: " I’ve done the thing you told me a few days ago. Do you still have any problems?” I knew it was Xiaohai asking me if there was anything else or if my freedom had been restricted.I said, "It's okay, Director Wang, I'll wait for your call." I meant to tell him there was no problem, and I just asked him to cooperate. After hearing this, Baolin said, "Hey, third child, you're so clear." He wanted to drag me to dinner, but I didn't hold back, so I followed him to dinner.During the meal, Baolin asked me, "Where is your car? Why do you drive such a car?" I said, "It's working time, I drive a work unit car. Doesn't my car burn oil?" Baolin said, "Look at your car." Now that I’m a person in the city, I’ll be able to get along.” I smiled to hide my embarrassment. Baolin asked me, "Sir, do you still gamble?" I said, "I've stopped gambling a long time ago, not at all." Baolin said he didn't gamble anymore, but he would occasionally go for a stroll in Macau.He also went to Macau during the fishing moratorium that year, and stopped playing after winning 40,000 yuan.When he talked about going to Macau to play, his eyes had a strange brilliance.I am too familiar with such eyes, such eyes only gamblers have.It seems that Baolin still has a gambling addiction, so I have a new plan. But I know that Baolin is a very ghostly person, and he is not so easy to deceive.If I cheat him with gambling, it won't work.Don't look at him showing that he is so kind to me now, but I know that he must guard against me when it comes to gambling, after all, he is better than me. I also deliberately brought the topic closer to gambling.When he talked about gambling, he was eloquent, and he also gave examples of some tricks he knew.I also deliberately looked at him with admiring eyes, taking the opportunity to trick him into knowing all kinds of tricks.He does know a lot, and it seems that he has been relying on this for a living in those years.It was only after talking that he realized that he started his business with the capital he won from gambling, and made a fortune little by little.It's really not easy for such a person to deceive him, so I immediately dismissed the idea of ​​cheating him on gambling. After dinner, I asked for the certificate and asked him to wait for news, saying that when I would go to the fishery supervisor and ask Director Wang to have a look.He repeatedly told me not to lose the certificate. I took the two certificates and went to find Xiaohai, and asked Xiaohai to help find someone to see how much they were worth, and whether they could be sold for money.Xiao Hai took the certificate and went to inquire. Baolin called me the next day and asked how I was doing.I declined and said that I hadn't seen Director Wang yet, but he said he was at the door of my unit.I rushed over immediately, it seemed that he was quite anxious. I pretended to ask him to sit in the unit for a while, and he agreed.There are not many people in the unit in the morning.Seeing that I had brought someone with me, Lingzi hurriedly brought tea and water, and it happened that Xiao Xing was not there, so I sat carelessly in the boss's seat and continued to fool Baolin.After listening to it for a while, Lingzi also noticed something strange. He got a reimbursement form that needs to be signed. He came in and said respectfully: "Manager, this is the cost of my business trip. Please take a look. If there is no problem, you can sign it and I will find it." Financial reimbursement." I wanted to laugh at the time, but seeing Lingzi's serious expression, I suppressed my laughter. I signed it smartly and continued to fool Baolin.But Baolin still seemed to have a lot of problems. It seemed that he was not very relieved, so I decided to take him to the fishery prison.I drove Baolin to the office of the fishery supervisor.In the hall, there are photos of all the staff of the fishery supervisor and related job descriptions.I pointed to Director Wang's photo and whispered to Baolin, "This is Director Wang who was talking to me on the phone." When Baolin saw the photo on the wall, he seemed to have made up his mind.I said to Baolin, "Wait for me below, I'll go up to Director Wang." Baolin wanted to go up with me, but I said, "Are you sensible? If you follow up, we can't talk about it." He After thinking about it, it was indeed the case, so he waited for me below.I went upstairs and squatted down to find a toilet to spend time smoking. I smoked about three cigarettes. It was estimated that the time was almost up, so I came down excitedly. Seeing me coming down the stairs happily, Baolin hurriedly asked how things were going.I said lightly: "The certificate has been handed over to Director Wang first. Director Wang said that if the horsepower does not meet the requirements for a new certificate, the top leader must sign it. But now the top leader has a meeting in another place, so we have to wait for him to come back." Baolin didn't have any doubts at all, he was overjoyed, as if the matter was already settled. Baolin asked me: "How much do you think it will cost, third child? I'll go get it now." I waved my hand grandly and said, "What kind of money will it cost? I have a good relationship with Director Wang, so I don't need any money. Wait for the new certificate to come out." Let's see how much the cost is, it's estimated to be 50 yuan." Baolin happily took my hand and insisted on inviting me to a big meal.Of course I'm welcome. During the meal, Baolin asked me how long it would take, and I said: "The leader of the family has gone to a meeting in another place. How can I know when he will come back? Just wait patiently. If you really don't want to wait for you, go home first. I will wait for the documents to come out." Find someone to bring it to you." Baolin said: "It's okay to go back now, it's the fishing moratorium. I'll just wait here, anyway, I'm idle." I continued to blow him a good meal at the dinner table, and Baolin also Follow along, it is very useful to me. During the meal, Baolin said: "Third son, I blame myself for being boring. Do you play mahjong? Why don't you find some people to play mahjong?" I asked Baolin, "How big is the game?" Baolin said, "20 to 50 Yes." From 20 to 50 yuan, I just hit the cards, how much money can I win?As soon as I thought of this, I rejected his idea.I said, "I still have to go to work. How can I have time to play mahjong? Besides, I have given up playing mahjong a long time ago. That thing hurts people. Now I go to work honestly, earn enough money to eat and live, and feel at ease." Baolin said : "It's entertainment, you think too much, third child." I tentatively asked Baolin: "I have a buddy in a cooperative unit who seems to be playing every day. If you want to play, I will tell you the place, but I will definitely not play." Baolin said: "There are too many tricksters playing now. Playing mahjong for entertainment is okay, or cockfighting for fun, but I dare not do anything else." It seems that he is still very wary. So I stopped testing him any further, and turned the subject to something else.At that time, I didn’t think about betting thousands of dollars on him. At first, I wanted to beat him up, but then I felt that I couldn’t get over it, so I sold his certificate, and then said that I couldn’t do it or lost it.He can sue wherever he likes.But Baolin went to the pole by himself. He said that he doesn't play staring, Pai Gow, or betting now, and now he only plays cockfighting. He said: "I was also scared by people, so I decided not to play. Just cockfighting is okay. No one can fool me in cockfighting, whether it is others shuffling cards, or making bridges, or playing poker, or Make a mark, or use the hidden potion, don't try to hide it from me. I'm an expert." I believe what he said.At that time, when I was stupid and didn't understand anything, he would shuffle and pick cards to make a bridge. I pretended to be very interested and asked him for advice.He asked me: "Didn't you stop playing? Why are you still asking for advice?" I laughed and said, "I also want to learn two hands, and occasionally play with my colleagues. At least I can guarantee not to lose." He then showed off I got up, and told me everything I knew, and when I got excited, I even sent the waiter to show me a deck of poker. He had a lot of fun playing it.He taught me to play cockfight and make marks.Most people put the marks on the back of the poker so that they can see the marks on the poker intuitively, but the mark made by Baolin is actually on the inside of the poker, and the mark is lightly pressed on the printed side with a fingernail, although no one will pay attention to the poker. Inside, however, how do you see it when you are inside? Baolin said: "It's very simple, you can see it when you sit facing the light." I picked up a playing card, scratched it lightly with my fingernail, and looked at the light, and I could see it clearly.No matter how you look at it, you won't find it.Who pays attention to the marks in poker?It seems that this belongs to reverse thinking. I was very excited to ask him for advice, and he told me all he knew and heard in a very ostentatious way.I said excitedly: "It's easy to use, I have to go to the bureau of my partner's buddy to get some." Baolin was also complacent, as if the master was talking about his own experience. After he finished showing off, he asked me inadvertently: "How old are your buddies from the cooperative unit?" I said, "5 yuan to 10 yuan." Baolin seemed to be very contemptuous, and said: "Fuck, I thought it was a game. How big is the round.” I was surprised and said, “5 yuan is still small? It’s not enough for a round of more than 1,000 yuan.” Baolin said contemptuously: “I can float on it for a year with one net.” He said The float refers to the dull card during the cockfight, that is, to call directly without looking at the hole cards. After dinner, I made an excuse to go back to work and asked him to go back to the hotel where he was staying.I can't be bothered to send him.In my opinion, all that's left is to sell his credentials.He came to me to ask for it, and I said I lost it. He didn't dare to do anything to me, so he could only admit that he was unlucky.
