I Had a Home In 1982

   Chapter 150 149. Detour to Mangrove Island (7.5K)

   After dinner, they went to the pier to stare for a while.

  The Wengzhou Wharf in 1982 still maintains the style of the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China. There are stone statues standing by the seaside, various birds and animals of the zodiac, which are still full of primitive style.

  Nowadays, there is less marine litter and less pollution in the sea water. The waves are pushed forward layer by layer, and the sound is loud and clear.

  There are young men and women who are off work to come to the beach for a walk. The wind blows the long skirts of the girls and the heartstrings of the young men, adding some romance to this vibrant era.

  Sun Zhengnan looked at the sea, while Wang Yi looked at the men and women with interest, and then the girls would whisper, "Bah, blind liuzi!"

  Wang Yi was furious.

   Who leaked the news and let the girls know they were looking at their legs?

   The last cargo ship honked its whistle and came to the dock. Wang Yi patted Sun Zhengnan's shoulder and said, "Deputy class, go and go to bed."

  Since there is already a restaurant on the pier, there is also a hotel. The two walked around looking for it, and then saw a sign hanging on a tree by the street: There is accommodation.

   They followed the sign and saw a building, like a converted warehouse, square, with a sign on the door: Dongfanghong Bathroom.

   Wang Yi was suspicious.

What does this mean?

  Sun Zhengnan had common sense and asked: "Is this public bathroom converted into a guest house at night? There is a large shop in it, which is temporarily used for bathers during the day, and may be rented to tourists at night."

   They were guessing that an aunt with a waist larger than a bust came out of the door: "Two comrades want accommodation? Come in, we are right here, you have found the right place."

   Then she said and pulled one by one and dragged it inside.

  The wharf was mixed with dragons and snakes, so Sun Zhengnan asked the woman first, afraid of an accident: "Sister-in-law, are you here from the public family or what's the matter?"

The woman understood what he meant and said with a smile: "Now the state allows self-employed individuals to do business, we have contracted this bathroom, we still use it as a bathroom during the day, and a hotel at night, and nothing else. Comrade passengers and workers on our wharf provide convenience."

   She said frankly, so that the two of them were relieved.

   Changing the bathroom to a hotel is of course the condition is not good, the biggest problem is the heat.

   It’s already May, and the city of Wengzhou is getting warmer. During the day, the workers start to work with their shirts on. They don’t need a quilt to sleep at night. A blanket is more comfortable than anything else.

   In the bathroom, the boiler has been burning during the day, and it will still be steaming at night, but the quilt is omitted. A wooden bed, a sheet and a pillow are placed in the lobby to make a bed.

  The weather is hot and sweating is inevitable. Most of the people living here are workers and travelers who have no money. The smell of sweat is strong after a busy day, and the smell of sweat is even worse when the temperature is high.

   Not to mention the smell of feet. These days, people don't pay attention to smoking in public places. The smoke is lingering inside. It is estimated that some people are drinking in it. This smell is mixed together.

  The price is also cheap. One person only needs three dollars a night. Two people like Wang Yi and the others have a discount of five cents. If they take a bath or a bath, it will be doubled, and two people will pay one yuan.

  The whole bathroom lobby is separated by bamboo curtains, which is quite artistic, but unfortunately it is not soundproof!

   Fortunately, the people living in it are all men. At most, you can hear grinding teeth farting and talking in your sleep, but you can't hear any sensitive sounds.

  Wang Yi thinks that living here is worse than living in a warehouse.

   But Sun Zhengnan didn't pick, and smiled: "The conditions are pretty good, and it's quite comfortable to live in."

  Maybe because the bathroom has its own boiler and there is a lot of hot water, there is also free boiled water here.

   There happened to be an old man holding a big teapot and adding water. He laughed when he heard Sun Zhengnan's words: "This comrade of the People's Liberation Army is not bad. Listen carefully."

   He has a lot of contact with people, and he can judge a person's approximate origin by swiping his eyes to see the skin and clothes.

  Sun Zhengnan's skin is dark and rough, his bones are thick and his muscles are strong.

   And Wang Yi knew that he was spoiled at first glance, so he persuaded Wang Yi: "Little comrade, you have to learn from the comrades of the People's Liberation Army, and don't suffer too much."

   "Besides, we are safe here anyway, you can rest assured to sleep here, no one will steal money or touch your bags, and we have a lot of people here, and the hygiene is good, and there are no mice and cockroaches!"

   The last words are very important.

  There are too many rats in Wang Yi's warehouse!

   The two paid the money, each received a card, and found two adjacent beds to sleep on.

   A strong man came in with a mace and shouted:

"Comrades, friends, old and young gentlemen, hey, those who come from the south to the north follow the leader to beat Lao Jiang; those who beat the sheds, search for ropes, stick paper and smoke, and those who sell vegetables and meat sell tea and pour them. The water is spinning."

   "Hey, all the tricks are on display. We don't welcome three hands in this store! Hey, stop the hands with three hands, or you will chop off one of your hands!"

   He shouted in the lobby, Wang Yi heard some relieved voices.

   These days when I go out to stay, I am most afraid of being robbed.

   He is not afraid, he is now only covered in clothes and a virginity.

  The bathhouse experience is not good, but it is really safe.

  Wang Yi still fell asleep amid the continuous snoring. When he woke up the next day, he admired himself very much. In the past, he was neurastheniac and could not sleep because of a little movement. Now his physical fitness has improved, and his mental problems have also been resolved!

   After breakfast, he officially took Sun Zhengnan into the city. He asked Sun Zhengnan to buy daily necessities. The list included a long list, such as cigarettes.

In the past, the supply and marketing cooperative was responsible for selling cigarettes, but after the reform of the supply and marketing cooperative, the cigarette sales line was stripped from it. The state established the Tobacco Monopoly Bureau, that is, this year, that is, since 1982, the supply and marketing cooperative cannot sell cigarettes at will, and must have a sales license issued by the Tobacco Monopoly Bureau. Just do it.

   It is impossible for a sales department like Tianya Dao to obtain a tobacco sales license, but in these days of chaotic economic management, Wang Yi can sell cigarettes.

   It's just that there is no official channel to supply him with low-priced cigarettes, so he has to find a store to buy them, so he let Sun Zhengnan shop around in the city.

   As for tobacco tickets, it is not a problem. First of all, low-grade cigarettes do not need tickets like inferior alcohol such as Yimao-shao, and only medium and high-end cigarettes require tickets.

  Secondly, Xu Jinjin treated him as his son and nephew, and he took care of him very much. The last time Yao Dangbing came to deliver him, he gave him some tickets, including tobacco tickets.

   sent Sun Zhengnan away, and he himself went to the post and telecommunications office to check out and mailed a few large boxes by the way.

   The two agreed to meet at the door of the warehouse at noon, so Wang Yi returned to the warehouse after working at the post and telecommunications office, locked the door and went for another 22 years.

   Yuan Hui is very efficient here. He first helped him find a psychiatrist to analyze the progress of Qiu Weishui's mental illness.

  As Wang Yi guessed, Qiu Weishui is depression with primary anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder, similar to his childhood, but much more serious than him.

  The doctor said that based on the existing clinic information, it was impossible to make a precise diagnosis or prescribe medicine. Wang Yi couldn't bring Qiu Weishui over for an accurate diagnosis, so Yuan Hui asked the doctor to prescribe some medicine.

   This time, it was a combination medication. The doctor stopped fluoxetine and changed it to a combination of several proprietary Chinese medicines with celec as the main drug.

   Another Qiuwei water must now be accompanied by neurasthenia, so the doctor prescribed Chinese patent medicines such as oryzanol, vitamin B complex, and Qiye Anshen Tablets.

   In short, Qiu Danian once again sent a bag of medicine...

  The case of Liu Dabiao has not progressed much. Yuan Hui has contacted a friend in the system, but there is no information in the system for a long time. This friend has to ask the old man who is in charge of the file...

  Wang Yi didn't have so much time to wait, so he went back to 1982 first.

   At noon, Sun Zhengnan came back with a small bag and a large bag. Wang Yi and him went to the warehouse to find wood and rope to make two pairs of poles, and then each carried one pair on the boat and returned to the island.

   They returned to FH County from Wengzhou City. After disembarking, someone shouted: "Brother Biao is here, here!"

   Soon Liu Dabiao rushed over with a few burly men with a gloomy face.

  Sun Zhengnan put down the pole and calmly pulled Wang Yi back to the depths of the pier, and said, "It's okay, I'll deal with it."

  Liu Dabiao rushed over and pointed at Wang Yi and roared: "Wang, where did you get the propeller on my boat yesterday? I didn't provoke you yesterday, but your grandson teased me with a lighter!"

   "Mummy, I said that I met you by chance and didn't follow you at all. Why the **** do you have to look for trouble?"

   "Who's looking for trouble?" Wang Yi was not to be outdone, "What propeller? I don't even know what you're talking about. If you want to make trouble, just say it clearly, don't give a damn!"

  Liu Dabiao shouted: "Who the **** is spitting blood? You think you can get away with the good things you've done? Someone saw that **** next to you diving and unloading our propellers!"

   "Mr. Wang is there, on the pier, hurry up! Come with me, comrades!" A rough and loud roar came through the waves.

   is a bold voice!

   boldly ran with a harpoon, Wang Dongfeng, Wang Dongyi and other militia members all appeared, and they copied Liu Dabiao from the back.

  Liu Dabiao's subordinates immediately drew out the dagger and bayonet.

  The pier was in chaos for a while. Someone blew the whistle, and the shrill and piercing whistle reached the police station outside the pier.

  Immediately, the two police officers who appeared yesterday appeared with the pistols on their waists!

  Wang Yi's heart is very stable, this battle can't be fought!

  Liu Dabiao also realized this. He pointed at Wang Yi and gritted his teeth and said, "Don't be alone in this life..."

   "Otherwise you won't let me go if you turn into a lonely ghost." Wang Yi snatched his words.

   Liu Dabiao shouted: "Yes!"

   After answering, he felt wrong again.

   This kid is not saying good things, he is cursing him!

  Unfortunately, there is no time to bicker. The police officers have already arrived, and they have many friends at the county dock. They raised their arms and shouted, and dozens of men picked up the guys at hand and even surrounded them.

  Liu Dabiao had no choice but to take people aboard and leave angrily.

  This time they boarded a sail fishing boat…

   Wang Yi laughed when he saw this.

   boldly ran to him and braked suddenly, angrily slammed the harpoon on the ground: "Damn, let him run!"

   Wang Yi said with a smile: "The public security comrades are here, we can't fight them unless he runs away. A gentleman is better at fighting than a hooligan, but a gentleman disdains to fight a hooligan!"

  Wang Dongfeng said: "Mr. Wang is literate. This is a good saying."

   At this time, there were still some men who were acquainted with Bold and others. Some were militiamen from the surrounding communes. They received military training together every year, so they recognized each other as comrades-in-arms.

   Friendship in war is considered to be the most reliable relationship in the current era, and people will rely on friendship between themselves and their friends.

   For example, Zhang Youxin said that he and Wang Yi had a war friendship because he helped Wang Yi reprimand the thief on the passenger ship.

Wang Yi was very grateful to these people. He put his hand into the package at the end of the pole, and then took a handful of cigarettes out. They were all ordinary harvest cigarettes. He asked Sun Zhengnan to buy them in the morning. Eighty cents.

   However, the supply and marketing cooperatives in the outer islands of FH County are expensive and cost two cents. After all, shipping from the inland still needs to add some freight.

   This is also the difficulty in the life of the members of the outer islands. The food, drink and lasa used by them are more expensive than those of the inland people. Except for seafood and sea salt, there are indeed more of these two.

  Wang Yi handed the cigarettes to the members of the militia and said, "Smoke the cigarettes for the comrades."

   Boldly reluctant, he slapped his thigh and said, "Shit, we are all comrades in arms, shout out..."

   "Smoke the cigarettes, don't talk too much, just listen to me, and don't dig your eyes and **** your fingers, let me disperse two or three two or three!" Wang Yi interrupted him decisively.

  Wang Dongfeng took the cigarette and handed it out: "Captain Duan is here? Haha, thank you, smoke, smoke."

   "Yeah, second brother, are you here too? Come, smoke a cigarette to relieve your fatigue."

  The fisherman's men are best to smoke and drink. The militia team scattered the cigarettes. Anyway, they scattered the cheap cigarettes they usually smoked. So no one was polite.

A militia captain surnamed Duan was very discerning. He wiped his hands quite formally and came up to shake hands with Wang Yi: "Are you Teacher Wang from Tianya Elementary School? A big celebrity, when Liu Dabiao asked about you yesterday, I thought something was wrong, hurry up. The trustee told Wang Zhishu about this."

  Wang Yi directly stuffed him a box of yellow-packed Hongmei cigarettes, which is an outstanding representative of Yunyan in the current era and the pride of Hongtashan.

   Captain Duan was flattered now.

  A box of red plums costs eight cents!

   Boldly and unceremoniously pushed him: "You're lying on the cow's buttocks and gasping for breath—you're just bragging, you're the one to inform us about this matter?

   "When the time comes, Captain Duan will arrange for someone to inform him." Wang Yi took over with a smile.

   Captain Duan, who was originally displeased, laughed again after hearing this, and said, "I did ask someone to inform your team, and it was Zhao Guizi from Jinlan Island."

  Wang Yi patted his arm: "Thanks."

  The cigarettes were thrown out, there was a lot of laughter on the dock, and even the police officers who came over mixed a few cigarettes, and then they said to Wang Yi: "You are a cultural person, don't deal with Liu Dabiao and the others, those are not good things."

  Wang Yi nodded in agreement, showing modesty and politeness.

   Cigarettes for a few dollars have earned a lot of word of mouth on the dock, which is a good deal.

   They returned by boat.

The    militia team came, Wang Dongfeng secretly pulled a felt cloth, and there were five or six semi-automatics hidden under it.

   All on the bayonet!

  Sun Zhengnan unloaded a magazine, full of ten brass bullets!

   Wang Yi was moved.

The    team was preparing for a **** battle with Liu Dabiao and his gang.

   After being moved, he thought, I haven't invited the whole team to a meal for a long time, so he should find an opportunity and a reason to invite the whole team to a meal!

  Sun Zhengnan closed the magazine clip, stroking the reddish-brown wooden gun body and couldn't put it down: "Do you have the number of bullets in your team? Do you want to hand them back?"

   He probably hasn't touched a gun for a few days and wants to try it out.

   Bold immediately understood what he meant and said, "Just hit it, we all have training tasks, and we can explain it with more bullets and less bullets."

  Sun Zhengnan immediately opened the safety and pulled the gun when he heard this: "Crack."

   With a crisp sound, the bullet was loaded.

   He aimed diagonally at the sky to pull the trigger, but Wang Dongyang said, "Don't shoot!"

  Sun Zhengnan immediately lowered the muzzle and retracted his index finger on the trigger, looking at him with questioning eyes.

Wang Dongyang said: "We'll go around a bit later to find a place to hunt birds. Our outer islands have a lot of birds. Those flying north in spring and those flying south in autumn will rest on our outer islands. Then you can go bird hunting. , Now there are geese, and the meat of geese is delicious."

   "Yes, Comrade Sun's military skills are absolutely excellent when fighting wild geese and wild ducks. This marksmanship is excellent, let's enjoy it." Wang Dongfeng said happily.

  Sun Zhengnan shook his head.

  Wang Dongyang asked in surprise: "You have no confidence that you can hit the geese?"

  Sun Zhengnan shook his head again and explained: "When I left the army, I promised the chief that there is no need not to shoot living things."

   "Why?" The militia team was very puzzled.

  Sun Zhengnan smiled and said nothing.

  The militias were not too happy.

   Riddler!

  Wang Yi said, "Because shooting and killing lives is addictive!"

   "Hunting is really addicting," said boldly.

  Other people still don't understand what Sun Zhengnan and Wang Yi mean: "What's wrong with addiction? Hunting more birds, rabbits, and improving food is a good thing." "That is, what's wrong with addiction, just restrain yourself."

Wang Yi said: "You are thinking too simply. It's nothing for ordinary people to be addicted to hunting life. They may be addicted to hunting a few wild animals in their lives. For the gunmen who have killed people, once they come It's no use hunting game, they will kill!"

   "So their chiefs cut across the board, forbidding them to use guns to kill living creatures, and preventing them from hooking up on this addiction."

   After listening to him, the militia team subconsciously looked at Sun Zhengnan.

   This is an elite soldier who has killed the enemy!

Sun Zhengnan waved his hand and showed a gentle smile: "It's not so mysterious, the chief wants us to restrain our temper. If we are used to shooting creatures to deal with creatures, we may not be able to hold back our anger when we encounter troubles, and want to use guns too. Go and fix the troublemakers."

The    militiamen suddenly realized: "Yes." "So it is."

  Sun Zhengnan fired a few shots at the void.

   Then it was Wang Yi's turn.

  Wang Yi came to 1982 and knew that the Tianya Island militia had guns, but he had never shot a gun. Now that the guns and bullets were in front of him, he was very excited.

   It happened that Sun Zhengnan and Bold were veteran gunners, so he asked them to teach him to shoot.

   Shooting without a target is meaningless.

  After he shot twice, he only felt a little numbness in his arm, and nothing special, so he put the gun back in a lack of interest.

   These 56 are the most boring guns he has ever played in his life.

The militiamen saw that he was not interested, so someone said: "Really? What's the point of emptying the gun? It doesn't mean anything at all, just like casting a net, what's the point of casting a net without a school of fish? Net, um, that's interesting."

   "How about birding?" Someone else suggested.

  Wang Yi was no longer interested in playing with guns, so he waved his hand and rejected the militiaman's proposal.

   He recalled the information Qiu Danian had obtained from Liu Dabiao's investigation, and asked, "By the way, where is Mangrove Island? What island is that?"

   Hearing him ask this, the militiamen suddenly laughed.

   boldly said: "Mr. Wang, you cultural people are full of flowers, you just want to hunt birds."

   Wang Yi was puzzled.

What's the meaning?

  Wang Dongyi waved his hand and said, "Forget it, the deputy class doesn't want to shoot birds. Teacher Wang just played with guns, don't let him take risks."

   "The most important thing is that the professor from the city told us when he came to our outer islands, saying that wild birds and we are part of the life circle, and we can't hunt them at will. Didn't the government order them not to kill them?"

Boldly curled his lips: "We don't hunt people from other islands, especially Splash Island. Mother's, Liu's surname is no fun. I heard that they put down the net, the net of the dead, the big net and the small net, let them I met them, and the birds that fly to Mangrove Island can’t escape no matter how big or small!”

  Wang Dongfeng and others nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes."

   Wang Yi asked: "Wait, there are many birds on Mangrove Island?"

   "Yes, Mangrove Island has the most birds. I just said that the detour is to go to Mangrove Island." Wang Dongyang explained.

   nodded boldly: "Mangrove Island is not only rich in birds, but also precious. This is what a professor from the capital said. He said that there are many precious and rare birds on it, and they want us to protect them."

  Wang Yi thought of Liu Dabiao's experience of running a truck outside for many years, and suddenly had an association when he contacted the militiamen.

   Liu Dabiao's final arrest was related to Mangrove Island. Could it be that he was sentenced for poaching and selling various precious birds on Mangrove Island?

However, he had seen the introduction to the "List of National Key Protected Wildlife" when he checked the materials in the 1980s. He vaguely remembered that the "List" was established in the late 1980s and was issued and implemented by the Ministry of Forestry and the Ministry of Agriculture. After that, the protection of these wild animals was raised to a legal level.

   In other words, it is not illegal to hunt and kill wild animals before this "List" is published.

   But this is a protection measure established by the central government at the legal level, and local governments may have issued regulations earlier.

   For example, there is a ban on fishing. Now, Wengzhou has regulations prohibiting fishing at a depth of 20 meters.

   But this rule can only govern the honest people who obey the law and go out to fish as usual, and it is impossible for the officials to send people to watch every one of their boats.

   Besides, what if you stare at it? Can't monitor the depth of the fishermen's fishing area all the time?

  So the members of Tianya Island have a lot of opinions on this matter.

  They follow government regulations, what about the others?

   Thinking of this, he asked the militia: "Brother Da Yi just said that the government has ordered to protect these birds? Are there any regulations?"

Answering his words boldly, he said: "Yes, we have regulations in Jiangnan Province and Wengzhou City, saying that the trees on Mangrove Island are not allowed to be cut down and the birds on the island are not allowed to hunt, what's the use? We just abide by the law like this. The members only listen."

   "Yes, whoever obeys the law will suffer." Wang Dongfeng said indignantly.

   Wang Yi's mind turned quickly and decided to go to Mangrove Island to explore the road first.

   So he said with a smile: "It's wrong, we don't lose out if we obey the law, and whoever breaks the law will lose out!"

   "Let's go, sail to Mangrove Island, if you can eat meat tonight, let's see how many people break the law!"

  Between the lightning and flint, he came up with an idea, just as he was going to give the whole team a meal again, now the opportunity seems to have arisen.

  Bold did not understand his thoughts and said, "Don't think about hunting when you just touched the gun, it's dangerous."

  Wang Yi said: "I'm not going to hunt, I'm going to punish the wicked! Go to justice!"

  Sun Zhengnan was the first to understand what he meant: "Black eats black!"

  Wang Yi glared at him: "How unpleasant you said, it is white to eat black, how can we be black? We are white!"

The    militia also understood what he meant.

  The crowd rejoiced, but some were hesitant: "It offends people like this."

   Wang Yi said: "If you offend people because of upholding justice, then offend them. If you offend people because you act bravely, then you offend them."

   Boldly listened to his words with admiration: this little babbler, the scholar is really bad!

  Mangrove Island is named for the mangrove trees that grow outside the island.

  The tree on this island is called Hero's Blood, and its scientific name should be a kind of mangrove. It grows on the island and around the island in the shallow sea.

Boldly introduced to Wang Yi that the reason why the tree on the Mangrove Island was called Hero Blood was related to Qi Jiguang, the anti-Japanese hero of the Ming Dynasty. Qi Jiguang once fought a **** battle with Japanese pirates on the outer islands of Wengzhou. fleeing everywhere.

   Among them, the main force of Japanese pirates fled from the coast of Wengzhou to the outer sea, and a battalion of officers and soldiers of Qi's army was ambushed on Mangrove Island to stop the enemy.

  The main force of the Japanese pirates was large and powerful, and the enemy officers and soldiers suffered heavy losses. They relied on the trees around the island to fight with the Japanese pirates, and finally they bloodied the island in order to win the war opportunity.

   Since then, the leaves and bark of the trees outside the island have taken on some red, and the red is especially obvious when seen from a distance, so it is called the blood of heroes.

   It is precisely because the heroes are buried on the Mangrove Island that the righteousness of the island persists, and the instincts of birds and beasts are more sensitive than those of humans. They can perceive the righteousness of the Mangrove Island and like to rest on the island.

   There is also an old saying that the soldiers of the Qi family who died in the battle turned into various birds, and now their descendants come to the island to worship their ancestors.

  Wang Yi listened to these very romantic legends with relish and saw Mangrove Island.

   Now that the spring flowers are blooming, the trees on the island are lush, and you can really see the red color on the trees from a distance.

   These reds could also be blood.

   Many small boats stopped at the periphery of Mangrove Island. These boats were tied to mangroves rooted on the seabed, and then the crew members either set traps, set up fishing nets, or shot birds.

  Wang Yi touched the camera from a package again.

   The militiamen were stunned when they saw it: "This, what is this?"

   "It's a camera! A camera!" he said boldly, "How about you, haven't you seen it before? Haha, dumbfounded, now the camera has become so small..."

   He was laughed at when he first saw Yao as a soldier because of the camera, and now he is ready to laugh at the militiamen.

  Wang Dongyang said: "I know this is a camera. The reporter came to the school to take pictures and saw it on Qingming Festival, but why do you have one, Mr. Wang? This is precious!"

   boldly stunned: "Yes, Mr. Wang, do you also have a camera?"

   Wang Yi smiled but did not answer.

   Just take the cameras out one by one.

   The militiamen began to gasp, and even Sun Zhengnan was stunned.

   These days, cameras are even rarer than 22-year-old sports cars, and Wang Yi took out several in a row to shock them.

   Then Wang Yi picked up the camera and shoved it to them: "Dumbfounded? It's all toys, all models, not real!"

   All plastic models.

  The militiamen came to a sudden realization after researching, but they were still amazed: "This toy is so realistic."

   "That's right, look, come and see, hey, hey, you can see the scene in this camera, it's really a scene!"

   "I have this one too, and I can change the scenery with a click..."

   A group of adults played with the same love as children.

  Wang Yi grabbed the camera back and said, "Go back and play again. This camera is not for you to play with, but for business purposes."

   "Come here, everyone, listen carefully, everyone will have a camera later, listen to my password, cooperate with me, and don't talk to anyone without my permission."

   "Yes, Chief!" Wang Dongfeng saluted.

  Sun Zhengnan subconsciously accompanied him with a salute.
