Chapter 41 41. The East Window Incident

It's too far away, let's go back again. When I got back, I called Lingzi and asked her if Baolin had come to see me recently.Lingzi said: "I come here almost every day, and when I come, I just sit here and wait, which makes him very annoying." It seems that Baolin is very anxious to get a certificate. Not long after the phone was turned on, Baolin called.At first I made all kinds of excuses, but later I couldn’t find any. As soon as I saw Baolin’s phone number, I said to the phone: “Hi! Hello! Who? Who? Please speak up, the phone signal is not good… ..." While speaking, he opened the back cover of the phone and pulled out the battery.If Baolin hangs up again, the voice prompts him: The number you dialed is not in the service area.

But Baolin was very persistent, and he would call in almost as soon as I turned on the phone. I had no choice but to act like a rogue, and I pressed it every time.After pressing it dozens of times, Baolin probably knew the reason and stopped calling me. It doesn't matter if you don't call, it's clean! After about half a month, my dad suddenly came.When he saw me, he said with a stern face: "Look at what you are doing. If you can do things for others, you can do it. If you can't, you can return the certificate to others. Baolin's mother comes to our house every day to tell your mother , and are still going around in the village saying that you cheated Baolin's certificate, do you still tell us to look up from our relatives?"

I want to quibble with my dad, but my sophistry is childish in my dad's eyes. He grew up watching me quibble.He just said: "Give me the certificate." Over there, my mother also called me and told me not to take other people's certificates.My mother also asked me carefully: "San'er, are you short of money and sold the certificate?" After my parents made such a move, I had no choice but to surrender and obediently handed over the certificate to my dad to take back.The day I sent my dad away, I thought of a sentence: Stealing chickens is not enough to lose money.This is a true portrayal of my mood at the time.

I thought it was over like this, but I didn't think about it anymore.Who knows, one morning in October of the following year, while I was playing mahjong, Lingzi suddenly called and said, "Third Brother, just now a reporter from a TV station came to your work unit and said they wanted to interview you." Interview me?How did I get involved with the reporter?I asked Lingzi, "Didn't you say anything?" Lingzi said, "I asked, but the reporter didn't say anything. I told the reporter that you had resigned long ago and went to another unit. The reporter asked me where I could find you, and I said I didn't either." Know."

After answering Lingzi's call, I muttered: What does the reporter want from me?I've been a good citizen recently, there's nothing I can do on TV, right?Did you make a mistake? I was still playing mahjong in the afternoon, when the phone rang, I answered it, and I recorded the content of the call in detail: Reporter: "Excuse me, are you the third manager?" Me: "Yeah, who are you?" Reporter: "I'm a reporter for the TV station's New View column. I want to interview you. Do you have time? Let's meet." As soon as I figured it out, it was not a good thing for the reporter to come to me, and I couldn’t meet in person, so I said, “I’m very busy, I’m out of town now, if you have anything to do, just talk to me on the phone.”

Reporter: "Excuse me, do you know Baolin?" Me: "Yes, what happened to Baolin?" Reporter: "Is it you who introduced Lin Min to Bao Lin?" Me: "Yeah, what's the matter? Tell me if you have anything to do." Reporter: "It is said that you introduced fishery officials to boat owners like Baolin. Is that true?" When I heard it at the time, I always felt that there was a trap in the words, so instead of answering him directly, I asked, "Special introduction? What do you mean? Why can't I understand?" Reporter: "I won't go around in circles with you, did you introduce them to each other?"

I also simply said: "Yeah, what's the matter?" Reporter: "Are you there when Baolin and Lin Min reached an agreement?" At that time, I thought of what was negotiated between Lin Min and Bao Lin.But what does this have to do with me?Listening to what this reporter said was not good, I asked, "What agreement? Why can't I understand?" Hearing what I said, he stopped playing around with me and said, "Baolin has to pay Lin Min 5,000 yuan for every boat every month. Do you know about this?" I know I do, but I can't answer that.I said, "What kind of money should I pay? Does it matter to me whether I pay or not?"

The reporter asked again: "Baolin pays Lin Min 5,000 yuan per boat every month. How much commission does Lin Min give you?" This reporter was talking nonsense, so I was a little annoyed and said, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by giving me a commission? What does it matter to me? It's true that I introduced them to each other, but the specifics of their relationship I don’t know what you did. Regarding the payment you mentioned, I suggest you contact whoever received the money. How can you come to me and ask these nonsense questions?” The reporter was still talking about me: "So you admit that you acted as a middleman to build a bridge for Bao Lin and Lin Min to carry out the transaction?"

I became angry and became rude when I spoke. I said: "Can you talk? What is a bridge? It is true that they met through me, but I have no idea what they have done between them." .If I introduce a female news reporter to your reporter, after you two meet, do you want me to raise a child for you two?" When the reporter heard what I said, he changed his approach and said, "Someone reported that you specialize in working as a middleman between the fishery administration and some boat owners, using the boat owners' lack of certificates to fear fines to earn fees. Is that true?"

As soon as I heard it, I became angry and said, "You fucking fart." He also asked some questions, but I didn't hear them clearly.I really don't bother to tell him, what a shitty reporter, it just makes people angry. But calm down and think about it, what happened between Bao Lin and Lin Min?Why did you ask me for an interview?So I asked Xiao Hai to inquire about it, but Xiao Hai said he couldn't find Lin Min either. That night, many friends called me and said, "My third child, you are on TV." I asked in detail before I found out that I was actually on one of the most popular columns on local TV stations: New Viewpoint column.I watched TV for a long time and couldn't find this show.I was reminded that there would be a replay the next morning.

So the next day I switched to that station early and sat in front of the TV to wait.At this time, many people called me, especially Dezi, who said on the phone: "Okay, third child, you can go on TV now. I don't see that third child, you have a side job? This side job is good. Didn’t you earn less?” I scolded Tokuko and stopped answering him. When the New Perspectives column was replayed on TV, I strained my ears, opened my eyes wide, and read it intently.A picture of a reporter holding a microphone interviewing Baolin appeared on the TV screen. Reporter: "Why didn't your ship go to apply for a certificate?" Baolin: "I was going to apply for a certificate, but the staff of the fishery administration said that I can work without applying for it." Reporter: "How can you work without a certificate? This is not allowed." Baolin: "Because the people in the fishery administration said that they can turn a blind eye to my boat when it is operating." Reporter: "Why do people in fishery administration turn a blind eye to your boat?" Baolin: "I have to pay them a fee in private. This fee is less than that of ships that normally apply for certificates. Therefore, many of our ships don't need to apply for certificates. They just pay the fishery administration personnel in private every month. That's it. No one will come to check on us." Reporter: "How much does that boat cost?" Baolin: "A boat needs to pay 5,000 yuan a month during operation." Reporter: "Where did you give them all? Do you have a receipt?" Baolin: "In the car, in restaurants, on the street, they are all there. They will come to urge you every month, but there is no receipt." So the reporter himself babbled at the camera and said, "Please see the screen of the reporter's detailed interview." Then the screen switched to a candid shot: on the screen, Lin Min was wearing a fishery administration uniform, his face flushed from drinking.Bao Lin was counting the money, and gave 10,000 yuan to Lin Min, saying, "You will take care of my two boats for this month." With a cigarette in his mouth, Lin Min took the money and said drunkenly: "Don't worry, you can do what you want, no one will catch you. If you don't believe me, ask them." He pointed at the people on the table. Baolin: "I should get the certificate sometime, I'm always worried." With a wave of his hand, Lin Min curled his tongue, and said, "No need to do it. Are you reluctant to pay 10,000 yuan a month? Where can you find such a cheap job? If you get the certificate, let me tell you, 10,000 yuan a month. Wandu can’t come down. Even if you have double delays, you are not allowed. Besides, who has arrested you this year? If I say no, then don’t do it, and the certificate is useless.” Pauline: "Yes, yes, I know." The screen showed that Lin Min put the money in his pocket, picked up the wine glass, and yelled, "Drink, keep drinking." Then the screen began to move, and there were three people in fishery uniforms sitting beside the table, drinking wine one by one. His little face was flushed, and he was in a drunken state. Then the TV screen cut back, and it was still a normal interview scene.The reporter asked Baolin, "When did you start paying such fees?" Baolin said, "From July last year until now." Reporter: "Do you just pay the money yourself?" Baolin: "There are many more, all of which are undocumented boats." The screen cuts to another boat owner, who also said that he has to pay such a fee every month.I reckon this person is the babysitter that Baolin found and is being interviewed. The reporter interviewed Baolin again: "Then did the staff of the fishery administration find you to ask for this fee, or did you ask them to do this?" Baolin: "We didn't know it was possible to do this. It was introduced to us by a man named Lao San." Reporter: "Is the third child also from the fishery administration? Do you want to give the third child money?" Baolin: "He is not in the fishery administration, but he is specialized in this. When he sees a boat without a certificate, he will tell you that you don't need to apply for a certificate. You can introduce people who know the fishery administration through him. The money does not belong to me. Here, Lin Min and the others will give the youngest a commission in proportion to the money they collect." Reporter: "Because the third child is not in this city, we interviewed him by phone." Then the TV screen showed a phone in a hands-free state, a microphone was placed on the phone, and the reporter said to the phone: "Excuse me, are you the third manager?" My voice: "Yeah, who are you?" Reporter: "I'm a reporter for the TV station's New View column. I want to interview you. Do you have time? Let's meet." Me: "I'm very busy. I'm out of town now. If you have anything to do, just talk to me on the phone." Reporter: "It is said that you introduced fishery officials to boat owners like Baolin. Is that true?" Me: "Yes." Reporter: "Baolin has to pay Lin Min 5,000 yuan for each boat every month. Do you know about this?" Me: "Yeah, what's the matter?" Reporter: "Baolin pays Lin Min 5,000 yuan per boat every month. How much commission does Lin Min give you?" Me: "About the payment you mentioned, I suggest you contact whoever received the money." Then the voice of me disconnecting the phone rang.The reporter made another comment, what I can't remember now.Then I went to Lin Min's unit for an interview. On the screen, Lin Min walked into an office covering his face and shut the door tightly, refusing to interview.Then the screen showed an interview with a deputy director of the Fisheries Bureau.Fishery administration is under the management of the Fisheries Bureau.The leader said that he should deal with it seriously. After watching the report on TV, I went back and forth five times in the room, it was so fucking irritating, how could my words be edited in such a mess that I not only admitted that I was a middleman for the fishery administration and the ship owner , as if I was still collecting commission in the middle.I don't mean that.What's more, I still have the famous theory that he and the female news reporter had children. Why did I suppress this theory? But spinning around in circles won't solve the problem.No wonder people say that fire prevention, theft prevention and reporter prevention are simply wise words.Therefore, when you meet a reporter in the future, you must keep your mouth shut and don't say anything.This is my experience. Later, Xiaohai went to find out. It turned out that Baolin was trawling during the fishing moratorium, and was encountered by the law enforcement boats of the provincial fishery supervision (the fishery supervision and fishery administration are not the same department).The fishery supervision and law enforcement boat put down a small boat and wanted to board the boat for inspection. Baolin was also on board at the time. He saw that it was not a fishery administration boat. He was afraid that if it was found to be an undocumented boat, it would be unlucky. , ordering the fishermen to throw stones at people, and to drive away with high horsepower. The fishery supervision and law enforcement boat put down four small boats to chase Baolin's boat at sea, and finally boarded the boat by force, controlling all the fishermen.The inspection found that the trawling operation was not mentioned during the fishing moratorium, and the ship did not have a certificate, so the ship was forcibly towed away. After the boat was towed away, Baolin was detained for 15 days for violently resisting the law. After he got out, he found a relationship to redeem the boat.But when he arrived at the port, he found that all the machines in the ship's engine room had been dismantled, and all the radar and navigation on the ship had been confiscated by the fishery supervision department.He wanted to find Lin Min, but Lin Min's boat had been patrolling the sea, and the phone couldn't be answered. Lin Min's boat didn't go ashore until the fishing moratorium was over. Working during the fishing moratorium and violently resisting the law is simply suicidal.After Lin Min and the others went ashore, the boat was forcibly scrapped by the fishery supervisor, but Lin Min didn't know it yet.Baolin felt that he was angry, so he found a reporter to report it, so the scenes interviewed by the New View reporter on TV appeared, and there was a scene where Baolin continued to pay the money.I think it was the business card I gave him when I attended the wedding at home, and he gave it to the reporter.This Baolin didn't have a brain, and if it wasn't for Lin Min's support, he would never have gone out to sea during the fishing moratorium, and the boat was forced to be scrapped.He hated Lin Min quite a bit. He thought that if he found the reporter, he could get back the money he had paid before. Anyway, the boat was gone, so he didn't have to continue to curry favor with Lin Min. But for me, this matter has passed like this, and no one from any department came to me for questioning, only my voice appeared on the TV. But since then, the Baolin family has stopped communicating with my family, and no one from their family came after my mother passed away.For this reason, my father still complained to me a lot, saying that I did not behave properly, and that a relative never moved around.I didn't dare to argue with my father, but what I really thought in my heart was that I don't want such relatives. When I burned my mother's anniversary, my brother and I went home.When we left, because my brother had something to deal with in the county, he and I stayed in the county for one night.I saw Baolin on the pedestrian street in the county seat, and he also saw me, but he walked over like a stranger, and I didn't bother to pay attention to him, and pretended not to see him. I also met some acquaintances in the county town. I heard from acquaintances that after Baolin's boat was confiscated, he partnered with others to set up two more boats to continue trawling, and also applied for certificates.But all the fishery bureaucrats in this place, from the county to the district to the city to the province, came to arrest him.I heard that all the fishery law enforcement boats have greeted the surrounding boat owners, and if Baolin's boat moves, they will be notified immediately.So as long as his boat moved, within an hour, there would definitely be a law enforcement boat coming.At sea, from the moment your ears hear the roar of the motor of the law enforcement boat, you can't run even if you want to.The law enforcement boat running on the sea is like flying on the water, and it will arrive in front of your boat in a few minutes.From the way you work, the size of the mesh, to the size of the fish caught, there are faults in any inspection.Often not only were they fined, but all their belongings were also confiscated.After struggling for half a year, he couldn't go on working, and finally had to sell the boat.But the fishermen around him dare not buy his boat, because the fishery administration has something to say, and whoever buys it can do it.In the end he sold the boat to other places at a very cheap price. It is said that Baolin has been tossed like this twice, and his family has begun to decline.He is now making a living as a diver in a sea area contracted by others. He also suffered from diving sickness some time ago and went to the city to decompress.And no one gambled with him anymore, he was already famous, everyone knew that he would get cheated out of gambling, and no one would take him to play. I also heard that Goushengzi lost everything and disappeared after divorcing his wife. No one knows where this person is now.The so-called earthen pots can never be broken without the well, does it mean that the leftovers are like dogs? Ronger also lost contact after I met the crab.The crab is overbearing, burned my phone book, and cut off all contacts with everyone I knew before.
