Chapter 29 029: Gambling
Thugs like men are used to seeing all kinds of people. Their control of people's hearts tends to be perfected in the process of fumbling and rolling. They can see through whether this person is easy to mess with and how to handle it with just one glance. It seems that the innocent and innocent little lady in front of me is the most soft-hearted.
This kind of soft-heartedness can be coerced by morality.
The more generous he said that "delaying work" doesn't matter, and "waiting" with the little lady for "safety", the more guilty the little lady will be, and the sense of trust will skyrocket in addition to the guilt, let go of the guardedness that arose in an unfamiliar environment, Then fall into the trap.
Not as expected by a man.
The little lady narrowed her eyes and asked him timidly: "Is it really okay?"
The man sat down beside Shen Tang.
Deliberately stretched out his feet, exposing his toes stained with black mud and suffering from frostbite, so that Shen Tang could see his severely worn straw sandals, with a bright and open mouth: "It's not a problem, at least the shopkeeper Deduct a few copper coins. If the gentleman hadn't seen you passing, he would have come too."
Shen Tang's expression changed slightly, his pupils moved, as if he was engaged in a battle between heaven and man in his heart, and the man was secretly happy when he saw it.
Why did he dare to say that?
Because he knew that Qishan would not come back so soon!
Don't worry about the lie being exposed.
He held his breath and recited the numbers silently until he counted to "fifteen". The little lady who was sitting obediently on the ponytail stood up and said softly, "Since Yuanliang asked you to come to me, let's hurry up." Go and meet him. If you are late, not only will your work be delayed, but he will scold me... please lead the way."
Successful!
The man was complacent, and hurriedly said: "This is what a young person should do, don't bother, don't bother, the little lady is outrageous."
"Little lady, let's go this way." The man stretched out his hand, pointing to the direction where Qishan left before, and while leading the way, he also thoughtfully took the rope of the motorcycle led by Shen Tang, and said, "Fanghua Inn is far from here. There are some roads, do you want to ride on them, little lady?"
Throughout the whole process, the man behaved very decently and properly, which invisibly increased Shen Tang's sense of trust in his status as a "helper at the Youth Inn". Shen Tang really didn't suspect him, and struggled to climb onto the back of the motorcycle clumsily. The man glanced at the motorcycle from the corner of his eye, and chatted with Shen Tang while holding the rope: "Does this look like a horse?"
The docile little lady answers every question.
"A motorcycle is a mule."
"Mule?"
The man wondered how much the mule could sell for.
Although it is a mule and not a horse, this mule named "Moto" is good-looking, with a snow-white body, it can be as tall as an ordinary adult man, and it looks expensive. Find a channel to resell it yourself, maybe you can sell it at a high price.
At this time, the man was leading the motorcycle and walking in front, only showing his back to Shen Tang, naturally he was not afraid that she would see his expression at this time, the complacency and greed on his face almost overflowed. The traders who have been secretly concerned about the situation here, sighed and murmured when they saw this - some people want to die, but there is no way to stop them.
Falling into the hands of such bastards, this little lady is finished.
There is a butcher shop separated from the restaurant by two rooms.
The butcher at the butcher's shop saw that Shen Tang foolishly went away with the gangster, his expression changed several times, he gritted his teeth, threw the boning knife in his hand on the cutting board, and picked up another butcher's knife. Before stepping out of the butcher shop, the old parents who worked in the shop stopped him and gave him a wink.
The butcher didn't struggle, he just watched Shen Tang's back gradually shrunk into a small ball, and finally turned into a long sigh.
"Sin!" He wiped his face with his hands stained with meat oil, suppressed his meddling heart, and cursed again, "What a mess!"
I don't know whether to scold that **** or scold myself.
Adjusting his mentality, he continued to work in front of the butcher shop.
The customer who came to buy things said something quickly.
"That little gentleman will be fine."
The butcher was taken aback: "What?"
The guest laughed and repeated.
"That little gentleman will be fine, but the one who lied to others, his life is about to hang."
The butcher opened his round eyes in surprise, still holding the knife in his hand, and gestured angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about, old man?"
The butcher was slightly relieved when he heard the guest say that Shen Tang was fine, but after thinking about it, he felt that the guest was talking nonsense.
What little gentleman?
The one who was taken away was clearly a handsome and beautiful little lady.
He snorted dissatisfied: "An old and unscrupulous thing, his tricks are not good, his head is also confused, he just talks nonsense and deceives people, and he can't tell whether he is a man or a woman. If you talk about gambling, how do you gamble?"
Guest: "That young gentleman will return safely in half an hour. If I win, you will send me into the water today."
The butcher agreed without thinking about it.
It's just a few catties that no one wants to put into the water, so it's not a big gamble.
This guest is familiar to him, the back kitchen handyman who was bought back by Yuehua Building - every time he comes, he will buy some unwanted offal. Seeing that he is different from the others in Yuehua Building, the butcher does not have the slightest servility and flattery, but looks like a A scholar, with an indescribable elegance, is very fond of him, and will give more points every time he is weighed.
Come again today as usual, I didn't expect to talk nonsense.
The butcher said: "Am I going to win?"
Guest: "I'll buy an extra catty for the water."
The butcher said unhappily: "If you sell the water thing for an extra catty, how much more money can I make? Yes, just bet!"
After a while, the butcher cut up half a catty of broken bones and wrapped them in lotus leaves, and put them together with the offal. He pointed at the case of the butcher shop and said, "If the man can come back, I will give you the half catty."
Although there is no meat in broken bones, it can also make do with stewed meat.
The guest was skinny and skinny. The butcher was somewhat soft-hearted, and he sincerely hoped that the guest would win.
The guest crossed his hands and saluted: "Thank you."
The butcher muttered: "This action is also decent."
What is Yuehua Building?
A place for men and women to have fun.
This guest said that he was a helper in the back kitchen doing rough work, but the slaves bought back by Yuehualou were, to put it bluntly, the most inferior of the low-class. Such a person is like a scholar, and he is often ridiculed, and the butcher also thinks he is putting on airs.
But the butcher didn't laugh.
Just because the guest temperament is really good.
Talking to him is comfortable.
For half an hour, the butcher waited anxiously, and from time to time he looked in the direction where Shen Tang and the two disappeared, and asked the guest: "Old man, why did you say that was Xiao Langjun just now? That is clearly a girl."
The guest didn't take the butcher's rude address to heart at all, but pointed to his waist with a smile.
The butcher was puzzled: "What's wrong? Your back hurts?"
The guest said: "Wenxin Monogram."
The butcher was taken aback: "What?"
Guest: "That one has a Wenxin Monogram. Although he is not as good as an ordinary warrior, it is not a problem to deal with an ordinary person."
Butcher:"…"
As an ordinary person, he has heard of the "Wenxin Monogram" even if he has never seen it, so he naturally knows what it means to own it.
"Why didn't I see it?"
Butcher recalled, only remembering that pretty face.
The guest said: "That Wenxin monogram is colorless and transparent like crystal. If you don't pay attention to it, it will be easily overlooked."
Because of the literary mind and courage, it is popular for men to wear monograms or accessories similar to tiger charms when they go out. It is difficult to identify the ordinary monogram and the Wenxin monogram, and it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish in the first place.
