Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

After hanging up the phone, Zhong Yuanbing almost went crazy.

He habitually reached for the bottle of ink on the table, but he had already smashed the bottle and had not yet replaced it.

Zhong Yuanbing leaned back, sorting out the matter in his mind.

"You're already in jail, and you're still making so much trouble. Sooner or later, you'll be in trouble!"

On the other hand, Chen Wei was somewhat proud.

After putting the letter of complaint into his pocket, Chen Wei stood up and prepared to leave work.

The next day, Shuangfu Hotel.

Zhong Yuanbing was sitting in the jeep. On the seat next to him was a paper bag containing two bottles of Moutai.

Glancing at his watch and seeing that it was almost time, Zhong Yuanbing picked up the paper bag and said to the driver, "Drive somewhere else and find a place to eat. Come back and pick me up in an hour."

"Okay, Mr. Zhong." The driver responded.

After getting off the car, Zhong Yuanbing looked around and then walked into the hotel.

The driver behind me also drove away.

Not long after Zhong Yuanbing sat down in the box, Chen Wei walked in.

He was wearing casual clothes and had a smile on his face.

"Director Chen, it's been a long time since we last met. You're still as charming as ever." Zhong Yuanbing stood up to greet Chen Wei when he saw him come in.

Chen Wei felt relieved and suddenly recalled the scene when he first met Zhong Yuanbing.

At that time, he was not yet the director of the prison office and his position was not high.

Although Zhong Yuanbing was polite on the surface at that time, he was far less enthusiastic than he is now.

"Boss Zhong, long time no see." Chen Wei said with a smile.

"Director Chen, please take a seat."

After exchanging some polite words, the two of them took their seats. In the huge private room, they sat opposite each other. No one spoke first and mentioned the letter of complaint. The atmosphere was a bit weird.

When the food and wine were served, Zhong Yuanbing had no intention of tasting them at all.

Chen Wei was very hungry and ate with relish.

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you, Boss Zhong." Chen Wei wiped his mouth with paper after eating a greasy mouth.

"Director Chen is a true character." Zhong Yuanbing poured another glass of wine for Chen Wei, then raised his own glass: "Director Chen, I toast you."

"What do you mean?" Chen Wei laughed, holding the wine glass in his hand but refusing to raise it.

"Director Chen, if you're willing to honor me with this meal, it means you think highly of me, Zhong Yuanbing. So, I'll get straight to the point." Zhong Yuanbing slowly put down his wine glass and looked at Chen Wei. "Director Chen, regarding the report letter, I need your advice on how to make that guy behave."

After saying that, Zhong Yuanbing reached into his arms, took out a yellow envelope, and pushed it in front of Chen Wei.

Chen Wei put his hand on the envelope, felt the thickness inside, and then showed a satisfied smile.

"I've worked in prisons for so many years, and I've come into contact with at least eight hundred, if not a thousand, prisoners. But none of them truly believe they're wrong. If you want to make people like them behave, you have to teach them a lesson."

"As long as we make them understand how insignificant they are, it will be much easier to deal with them. If I make them squat, they won't dare to stand. If I make them lie down, they won't dare to lie down."

Chen Wei's words seemed to be a response to Zhong Yuanbing's words, but if you listen carefully, you can find that his words have many layers of meaning.

It even contained a hint of threat.

He can do whatever he wants to the prisoner. Doesn't that mean that as long as Chen Wei wants, he can control Jiang Yongbiao at any time?

However, although Zhong Yuanbing understood the meaning of the words, he couldn't get angry at the moment.

"Director Chen is indeed very experienced."

Chen Wei put the envelope containing the money into his pocket with one hand, and took out the letter of complaint with the other hand, then put it on the table and pushed it to Zhong Yuanbing.

When Zhong Yuanbing saw the letter, he opened it without hesitation.

The handwriting on the letter was very neat and it was impossible for it to be written by Jiang Yongbiao, but the content was exactly the same.

Zhong Yuanbing was certain that this letter of complaint was indeed written by Jiang Yongbiao.

"As far as I know, Jiang Yongbiao is semi-illiterate. This doesn't seem like something he could write."

Chen Wei didn't take it seriously and said casually, "It's a prison, there are all kinds of prisoners in there. It's easy for him to ask others to write for him."

"Director Chen, let's be frank. I hope you can help me completely resolve this matter and prevent something like this from ever appearing again!"

Chen Wei took the money and took out the letter of complaint.

Zhong Yuanbing no longer maintained his composure, but directly stated his demands.

Chen Wei was obviously very proud in his heart, but he still had an embarrassed expression on his face.

"It's easy to prevent it once or twice, but it's hard to prevent it completely all the time. Hiss... your situation is really not easy to handle."

Zhong Yuanbing gritted his teeth secretly, angry at Chen Wei's greed.

Just now this guy was saying that he could do whatever he wanted to the prisoner, but now he says it's difficult to do. Isn't it obvious that he still wants money?

"Director Chen, I came here in a hurry without much preparation, but I believe you have heard of my reputation. So, as long as you can ensure that I have no worries, I am willing to give you this amount again." Zhong Yuanbing stretched out four fingers.

Four thousand yuan, plus the thousand yuan he just put in his pocket.

With Chen Wei's current salary level, it would take him ten years to earn that much money.

"I'm afraid it's difficult for me to handle this alone. After all, there are so many people in the prison."

Zhong Yuanbing narrowed his eyes slightly, then extended his thumb from behind his back.

"Director Chen, I have shown my sincerity."

"That's straightforward, Boss Zhong, don't worry. I've dealt with a lot of cases of prisoners making random accusations before, so I have some experience."

"Then I'll rely on you, Director Chen."

"Come on, let me toast Director Chen again." Although Zhong Yuanbing was very unhappy, he still raised his glass and drank with Chen Wei.

-----------------

After writing the letter of complaint, Jiang Yongbiao followed his daily schedule and worked hard, waiting quietly in the hope that someone would come to find him.

But four days passed, and the letter of complaint he wrote seemed to have fallen into oblivion, with no response at all.

This made Jiang Yongbiao very anxious.

After breakfast, the prison guards made a ward round, and Jiang Yongbiao took the opportunity to question Supervisor Wang again.

"Master Wang, what happened to the report I submitted? It's been four days, and there's still no response."

"Reporting also has its own procedures. I have already handed your report letter to Director Chen. As for when I can expect a reply, I don't know."

There was no exact time, which made Jiang Yongbiao even more anxious.

"Master Wang, I beg you to help me. Please ask Director Chen, or I can write a few more letters of complaint and mail them to the court, the public security bureau, and the procuratorate. That would also work."

"You think prison is your home, so you can do whatever you want? I'm telling you, I helped you once out of pity last time, so don't get ahead of me! You'd better accept your reformation honestly. If you get into trouble, don't blame me for reminding you~!"
