When I wrote about Shuangyashan, a place that made me happy and worried, there were many stories, but none of them could be mentioned. My thoughts are like flying catkins, jumping in my mind from time to time. For more than ten years, I have gone through a lot of hardships and suffered all kinds of crimes, and finally got through it. I encourage myself to write if I don't want to, and never give up halfway.
If I drive somewhere, I will wander like a headless fly for hours without navigation guidance, and I will probably choose to give up. But it is impossible in Shuangyashan. I will touch home with my eyes closed, because I am not familiar with what I am familiar with.
In some big cities, it is impossible for anyone to walk around a corner unless he is a taxi driver who has worked for a long time. Shuangyashan is very small, with three streets and eight roads. You can run all over the city for 5 yuan by taxi. Maybe some people haven't heard of Shuangyashan, so it's not surprising that I was like this ten years ago.
Shuangyashan is located in the east of Heilongjiang, about 60 kilometers away from Jiamusi. It is named after the city, like ducks playing in the water. Everyone in this city lives on the mountain.
At the end of June 2004 1 1, I came here alone from Jilin city. I have never set foot on black land, and I don't know whether it is a minefield or an abyss ahead. Since it is the place I chose on my own initiative, I can only resolutely break into this "Ningguta" with heroic spirit of death.
Because no one picked me up, I dragged my suitcase along Xueshan Road to find the dormitory left by my predecessor. I finally found it. I was so tired that I had to climb to the eighth floor with a heavy box on my back, because my home was there.
When I entered the house, the big room with three bedrooms and one living room was empty and dusty everywhere. The only furniture is two broken beds and a broken TV, and then look at the bedding and pillows used by my predecessors, which makes me sick. Besides, the room is too cold to take off your clothes, so this dormitory is useless.
Just when I was worried about climbing stairs, something happened and I was out of my misery. From then on, fate took a turn for the worse, and finally it was sweet and sour, and spring was warm in bloom.
One afternoon, I went back to the dormitory early because of something. I was just about to open the door when the woman behind me asked me, Do you live here? When I heard this, I was naturally surprised and answered: Yes! When the woman heard this, it suddenly dawned on her and asked, Where are you from and from whom did you rent this house? Instead of answering her question, I asked her, who are you? She said: I am the owner of this house. As soon as I heard it, I knew it was the landlord. I haven't seen it before, but I just met it today. But it's not what I thought The purpose of her coming today is not to get to know me, but to order us to leave. Why? It turned out that this woman rented the house to a local, but that person was a liar. After signing a one-year contract, she only paid three months' rent, turned around and rented it to my colleague, and collected the annual rent at one time. Then change your mobile phone number and continue to cheat. As the saying goes, monks can't run away from the temple, so the landlord came here to stop people and finally "caught" me for several days. When the other party knew that I was an ignorant person and was stationed outside the company, out of sympathy, I was not investigated for overstaying, but instructed me to move out as soon as possible, otherwise she would sue me for occupying her private house (my sister is a first-class cadre of Jianshan District Court). And the indictment has been drawn up, and I almost became the defendant.
I am very lucky. In just one day, I found a house with two bedrooms and one living room on the second floor on Wuma Road, Xiping Road. Although the conditions are average, after all, there is a table, a cupboard and a double bed, which finally looks and feels a bit like home.
Shuangyashan people are hospitable, do not bully customers, do not exclude outsiders, and both men and women can drink well. Once they recognize you as a friend, they can do anything and be generous. It was the first time to visit a customer in the mine, because the electromechanical mine manager went down the well and had a few words with the chief engineer. Near noon, the chief engineer invited me to have dinner with him. Although I just met, I didn't give in and readily agreed. I didn't know it was a banquet until I got to the restaurant. There were three or four guests. Everyone has a glass of loose wine. After the chief engineer made a few introductory remarks, he only picked up the cup and said one word: fuck! As soon as I lift my neck, a full glass of white wine instantly becomes empty. I've never seen this kind of drinking before, and suddenly I took a shocked look at the other people present, only to see that they all killed the wine in the cup without hesitation, forcing me to hold my breath and only lift my neck. I couldn't see what my expression was, but the burning feeling ran through the whole paragraph from my throat to my stomach. After a while, the second cup was the same, and the third cup was the same. The whole dinner ended in less than half an hour. Out of courtesy, I drank three cups of liquor with a degree of more than 60 without taking a few bites.
I used to drink half a catty of white wine, but I drank it slowly and carefully for a few hours, unlike this drinking method: swish, swish, three cups to finish the work.
The above is just a prelude to my participation in Shuangyashan, and then it is called climax after climax. Because there are too many scenes to play back one by one, only two shots are presented here, which shows:
Lens 1: In the early summer of 2005, a mine. I immediately hit it off with the manager of the coal mine and called a group of Liaoning villagers to drink draft beer at noon. I drank seven large plastic cups that can hold two bottles of beer at a time, and I also drank two bottles at a time. Don't let me go when I'm finished, send me to a guest house to rest, and then change to my hometown in Liaoning at five o'clock in the evening to start another round of beer fighting. I really had a good time and made many friends at the end of the day.
Lens 2: A mine, at night. There are six customers and me, among whom the mechanical and electrical mine manager and another person suffering from cerebral thrombosis only drank about one cup, and the other four people (including an elder sister) drank all the bulk liquor in one barrel 10 kg, which also set a record for me to drink the most liquor at a time.
I have worked in Heilongjiang for nearly ten years and have personally experienced the wine culture of many cities. I only appreciate the wine culture of Shuangyashan, because only the strong wine of Shuangyashan contains deep feelings. Whether it's many friends of the Mining Bureau or many friends made by telecommunications, especially the dozens of family-like treatment in Qinjia Courtyard in Lingdong, every time I go to Shuangyashan, I have the personal experience of being a wanderer at home.
There are not many places to play in Shuangyashan. The most unforgettable thing in my memory is the trip to Treasure Island, which allowed me to witness the historical scars of the battle for the island between China and the Soviet Union. After that, I went to the Hezhe family for one night, where I not only experienced their national customs, but also tasted the rich fish species in the Wusuli River, which was very enjoyable.
Looking back today, if I had known that I would stay here for 10 years, my biggest regret was that I didn't buy a house for my family. At that time, the house price was only a few hundred yuan, but now it has increased by more than ten times, which has caused me to have no fixed place and be "homeless".
