Chapter 29 029: Betting
Thugs like men are used to meeting all kinds of people. Their control of people's hearts has become perfect through crawling and rolling. They can tell with just one glance whether this person is easy to mess with or not. , how to figure it out. The simple 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 is in saying that it doesn't matter "delaying work" and "waiting" with the young lady for "safety", the more guilty the young lady will be. In addition to the guilt, her trust will skyrocket, and she will let go of being in a strange environment. The alertness rises and then falls into a trap.
As expected by the man.
The young lady narrowed her eyes and asked him timidly: "Is it really okay?"
The man sat down next to Shen Tang.
Deliberately stretched out his feet, exposing the toes stained with black mud and suffering from chilblains, so that Shen Tang could see his badly worn straw sandals, and said cheerfully: "No. If you get in the way, at most you will be The shopkeeper will take a few copper coins. If the husband didn't see you coming, he would have come over."
Shen Tang's expression changed slightly, and his pupils wandered, as if he was having a fight between heaven and man in his heart. I was secretly happy.
Why did he dare to say that?
Because he knew that Qi Shan would not come back so soon!
Don’t worry about your lies being exposed.
He remained calm and recited the numbers silently in his mind until he counted to "fifteen". The little lady who was sitting obediently on the pony stood up and said softly: "Since Yuan Liang asked you to come here, I, we should hurry up and meet him. If we are late, it will not only delay your work, but he will also scold me... Please lead the way!"
Succeeded!
The man felt proud and said hurriedly: "This is what a young man should do, no trouble, no trouble, the little lady is embarrassing."
"Little lady, let's go this way." The man stretched out his hand and pointed in the direction that Qi Shan had left. While guiding the way, he also thoughtfully took the motorcycle rope held by Shen Tang and said, "Fanghua Inn is not far from here. There are some roads, do you want me to ride on them?”
During the whole process, the man behaved very appropriately and appropriately, which invisibly increased Shen Tang’s trust in his status as a “helper of Youth Inn”. Shen Tang did not doubt that he was there, and climbed onto the back of the motorcycle awkwardly. The man glanced at the motorcycle from the corner of his eye, holding the rope while chatting with Shen Tang: "Doesn't this horse look like a horse?"
The docile little lady answered all questions.
“The motorcycle is a mule.”
“A mule?”
The man secretly wondered how much the mule could be sold for.
Although it is a mule and not a horse, this mule named "Motorcycle" is good-looking. It is all white and can be as tall as an ordinary adult man. It looks expensive. Find a channel to resell it yourself, and maybe you can get a high price.
At this time, the man was walking in front holding the motorcycle, and only his back was exposed to Shen Tang. Naturally, he was not afraid that she would see his expression at this time, and the pride and greed on his face almost overflowed. The merchants who had been secretly concerned about the situation here sighed and muttered when they saw this - there are some people who are looking for death and it is really impossible to stop them.
In the hands of such a gangster, this little lady is doomed.
There is a butcher shop and a wine shop separated by two rooms.
When the butcher at the butcher shop saw Shen Tang foolishly walking away with the gangster, his expression changed several times. He gritted his teeth, threw the boning knife in his hand on the chopping board, and picked up another butcher's knife. Before he even stepped out of the butcher shop, he was grabbed by the old parents who worked in the shop and gave him a fierce wink.
The butcher did not struggle, but watched as Shen Tang’s back gradually shrank into a small ball, and finally turned into a long sigh.
"What a sin!" He wiped his face with his hands stained with meat oil, suppressed his desire to meddle in other people's business, and cursed again, "What a world-shattering thing!"
I don't know if it was a curse. The gangster still scolded himself.
After adjusting his mentality, he continued to work in front of the butcher shop.
The customer who came to buy things said something quickly.
"That young man will be fine."
The butcher was startled: "What?"
The guest repeated with a smile.
“That young gentleman will be fine, but he is the one who deceived people, and his life is about to hang.”
The butcher opened his eyes in surprise, holding the knife in his hand, and gestured angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, old man?"
The guest was not afraid, and said with a calm smile: "How about making a bet?"< br>
When the butcher heard that the guest said that Shen Tang was fine, he was slightly relieved, but then he thought that the guest was talking nonsense. What kind of young man?
The person who was taken away was obviously a handsome and beautiful young lady.
He snorted with dissatisfaction: "You are an old and dishonest person who is not very good at tricks and is confused in your head. He just talks lies and deceives people. You can't tell whether he is a man or a woman. You said you are gambling, so how do you gamble?"< br>
Guest: "The young man will be back safely in half an hour. If I win, you will give me today's water."
The butcher agreed without thinking.
It’s just a few kilograms that no one wants in the water. It’s not a big bet.
This customer is familiar to him. He is a handyman in the kitchen who was bought back by Yuehua Building. Every time he comes, he will buy some offal that no one wants. The butcher sees that he is different from other people in Yuehua Building. He does not grovel at all. He is flattering and like a scholar, with an indescribable elegance. He is very fond of her and will give her more every time he is weighed.
I came here as usual today, and I didn't expect that I would talk nonsense.
The butcher said: "Am I going to win?"
Guest: "I will buy an extra pound of water."
The butcher said angrily: "This thing is water. How much more can I earn by selling an extra pound? Just bet!"
After a while, the butcher cut half a catty of broken bones and wrapped them in lotus leaves. Come back and I’ll give you this half a pound.”
Although the ground bones don't have much meat, they can also be used for pot roast.
This guest is so thin that he is almost skinny. The butcher is somewhat soft-hearted, and he sincerely hopes that the guest will win and that the little lady is safe. He will accumulate some evil virtue for himself and feel better.
The guest crossed his hands and saluted: "Thank you."
The butcher muttered: "This is a decent gesture."
Where is Yuehua Tower?
A place for men and women to have fun.
This customer is said to be a helper who does menial work in the kitchen, but the slaves bought back by Yuehua House are said to be the worst of the worst. For such a person to behave like a scholar, he was often laughed at, and the butcher also felt that he was trying to show off.
But the butcher didn’t laugh.
Just because the guests have really good temperament.
It feels comfortable to talk to him.
For half an hour, the butcher waited anxiously. From time to time he looked in the direction where Shen and Tang disappeared and asked the guest: "Old man, why did you just say that was the young man? That was obviously a girl."
The guest didn't take the butcher's rude address to heart at all, but smiled and pointed to his waist.
The butcher was puzzled: "What's wrong? Do you have a backache?"
The guest said: "Wenxin monogram."
The butcher was stunned: "What?"
Guest: "That one has a literary monogram. Although he is not as good as an ordinary warrior, he has no problem dealing with an ordinary person."
Butcher: "..."
As an ordinary person, even if he I have never seen the "wenxin monogram" but I have heard of it, so I naturally know what it means to have this thing.
“Why didn’t I see it?”
The butcher recalled that he only remembered that handsome and beautiful face.
The customer said: "The Wenxin monogram is colorless and transparent like crystal. If you don't pay careful attention, it can easily be ignored."
Because of Wenxin's bravery, it is now popular for men to wear monograms or accessories similar to tiger charms when going out. . It is difficult to identify ordinary monograms and literary monograms, and it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them at first glance.
