Just as the call was about to end, Li Ye suddenly thought of something and added, "By the way, Aqiang, don't go out casually these days. Follow Brother Peng's arrangements in everything. Don't go talking about how heroes emerge in troubled times. When ordinary people find themselves in troubled times, the first thing they should do is hide and keep themselves safe."
Aqiang said dismissively, "It can't be that bad, Mr. Li. We have the best security personnel, and Mr. Jin Peng has a lot of people over here."
"No matter how many people you have, can you take on soldiers? Stop talking nonsense and listen to Jin Peng's arrangements. Got it?"
"Oh, all right! I understand, Mr. Li."
Li Ye shattered Aqiang's little "hero dream" with a single sentence.
It was much like a joke that became popular in later years.
When killing people was not against the law in this world, who would you want to kill first?
If killing people was not against the law in this world, shouldn't I hide first?
And after Soviet Russia collapsed, the overwhelming majority of its people did not welcome the wonderful life they had imagined. Instead, all kinds of chaos broke out.
Because of the ruble's devaluation and the free-market economic policies adopted by Big Mao, many ordinary people saw their assets rapidly reduced to nothing overnight. Even veterans of the Great Patriotic War were forced to trade their medals for food.
Under such hardships, many people who had served in the Soviet Russia military chose to join local criminal organizations in order to survive and gain greater benefits. The dark forces throughout Soviet Russia reached a staggering scale.
Just look at how Soviet Russia gangs were portrayed in Hollywood movies. They were not groups ordinary people could stand against.
