"That's your boss. He's a good person.”Wang Qiang picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Really? I think so too.”Old Yellow chuckled.
Wang Qiang put down his teacup and said with a heavy heart,"Old Huang, let's talk about serious matters.”
"Oh, right, right, right. Business is more important." Old Huang nodded.
Wang Qiang sighed and said,"This time, I want to hold a funeral for my brother."”
He came this time because his brother could no longer hold on and was about to die.
"A funeral?" Old Huang asked in confusion.
He didn't know how to hold a funeral. He had to ask his boss.
"Yes, it's a funeral for my brother.”Wang Qiang nodded.
"Then I'll go call my boss. He'll talk to you. I don't know how to hold a funeral.”Old Huang chuckled and left.
After a while, Li Chu walked into the living room.
"Boss." Wang Qiang walked forward to welcome Li Chu.
Li Chu was stunned for a moment before he smiled and said,"No need, no need. Sit, sit."”
Wang Qiang smiled awkwardly and sat down.
"I heard from Old Huang that you want to hold a funeral for your brother, right?”Li Chu sat down and asked.
"This old brother of mine has suffered all his life. He doesn't have a wife, no children, and he's physically disabled. I reckon he won't be able to make it in the next few days.”
"Yes, I understand. This is where we hold funerals. Of course we can hold them.”Li Chu said with a smile.
Wang Qiang wanted to say something but hesitated. Then, he sighed.
"Uh, do you have anything to say?”Li Chu said.
"I wonder what kind of funeral you have, or how much it costs.”Wang Qiang saw that the boss was very easy-going, so he said.
It was mainly because he had been rejected before.
"We have everything here, and the prices are all different. There are cheap ones and expensive ones."”
Hearing this, Wang Qiang asked,"I don't have much money here. Can you do it with 3,000 yuan?"”
He only had this much money and had no choice.
Hearing this, Li Chu frowned.
"I know that this money is not enough, but we will return it to you. As long as you can do it for my brother, anything will do. We will do it even if you want our lives.”
The more Wang Qiang spoke, the more excited he became. His brother had suffered for a lifetime. When he left, he had to hold a grand funeral. Otherwise, he would be letting him down.
"Don't be agitated. Don't be agitated.”Li Chu advised.
Three thousand yuan was a little too little. The lowest price he had was twenty thousand yuan.
Otherwise, he would have to pay for it himself.
This was a losing business, and he couldn't do it.
Wang Qiang saw that Li Chu was silent. He knew.
3,000 yuan was indeed a little too little. In that case, forget it.
"I understand, I understand. I know you're in a difficult position. After all, this is a business. You'll definitely lose out on 3,000 yuan.”Wang Qiang smiled sadly.
Old brother, I can't give you a proper funeral.
After saying that, Wang Qiang stood up and was about to leave.
Old Huang stood at the side and didn't say anything. He wouldn't refute Li Chu's decision.
Li Chu's decision was his decision.
Wang Qiang had just walked out of the room.
"Brother, you dropped something."”
Old Yellow reached out to pick it up.
Li Chu's hand that was stroking his chin suddenly stopped.
"Old Yellow, don't move."
Old Yellow glanced at Li Chu and reached his hand back.
Wang Qiang, who had already reached the door, turned around and looked inside.
Li Chu took the red notebook.
"You were a soldier?" he asked Wang Qiang.”
Wang Qiang was stunned and said,"I used to be one."”
"Don't leave yet. Come in and sit down first.”Li Chu stood up and said.
"It won't be troublesome." Wang Qiang said awkwardly.
"It's okay. Business is business, but I can talk to you personally.”Li Chu said.
He was born with great respect for soldiers because they protected the country and the people.
"Alright, alright."
Wang Qiang returned to his seat.
He still didn't know what the boss wanted to do. The soldier's ID was indeed his.
Li Chu filled Wang Qiang's tea with hot water. It was 80% full.
"Boss, this is…" Wang Qiang was puzzled.
Wang Qiang was somewhat unable to react to the sudden change.
Li Chu handed the soldier's ID to Wang Qiang with both hands and said,""Please keep it."
"Oh, Boss, you don't have to be like this. I'm just a rough person.”Wang Qiang was flattered.
"It's fine. Your friend is also…" Li Chu looked at Wang Qiang and asked.
Wang Qiang nodded.”
Speaking of this, Wang Qiang did not hide anything.
It was rare to have two listeners.
"That brother of mine, although we call him a brother, he was actually our platoon leader. At that time, there were 40 of us in a platoon, and only five old fellows were left.
"Back then, our platoon went on a mission and was ambushed by the enemy in a village."
We started fighting. At that time, we only had 40 people in a platoon, and the enemy had two small teams.
We didn't have much ammunition at that time. After a while, we ran out of ammunition.
"The platoon leader instructed us to hide. At that time, the enemy also knew that we were out of ammunition and wanted to play with us."
They said that if they didn't come out, they would kill a villager every minute.
At that time, we were all anxious and wanted to rush out, but the platoon leader stopped us.
He said to wait a little longer. There should be reinforcements soon.
The enemy knew that we were waiting and started killing the villagers to force us out.
At that time, he killed several villagers in one go.
We couldn't stand it anymore, so we stabbed our bayonet and rushed out.
He engaged in melee combat with the enemy and finally killed a total of 50 enemies.
There were only eight of us left in our platoon, but we were also captured by the enemy.
They tied us up and stuffed cotton cloths into our mouths so we wouldn't bite our tongues,
Then, he used a rope to tie the cotton cloth around his head to prevent it from spitting out.
"The enemy began to torture us. During this period of time, three of our old brothers couldn't take it anymore and fainted on the spot."
They started to target our platoon leader. They cut his fingers with a knife, beat him with a whip, and pulled open his clothes with red-hot charcoal and put them in!”
Wang Qiang started crying as he spoke.
He wiped his tears and continued,"
"At that time, you didn't know that most people couldn't stand that kind of torture. The platoon leader endured it for half an hour before he fainted. After that, they tortured us again. We don't know how long it took.
"Reinforcements finally arrived. We were saved, but all our comrades were dead. Only five old brothers were left."
But our platoon leader
