Chapter 10 The Predecessor of Red Romance
Before Cai Gen went to college, his family was not in the city. From going to college to working and then returning to his hometown to open a store, he stayed outside for 13 years.
I am really not familiar with this small city.
Even though I have been running a restaurant for 5 years, my circle is limited to my classmates and relatives. I don’t have many external contacts. It can be said that I have almost no daily communication, so I don’t know many things.
"Do you know the red romantic hotel at the west exit?"
The flies were almost at the door when they heard the name of the Red Romantic Hotel.
I don't know if it was the romantic scene or the hotel that attracted him. He turned around and sat back in an instant and asked very thoughtfully,
"Did you go? Is that good? I heard there is a red bed inside?"
Why is he so excited? What red bed? You seem to be thinking a little bit wrong, right? How do I, a food delivery person, know if the bed inside is red or not?
"Ah, has anything evil happened there?"
The fly probably hasn't returned to normal from the previous train of thought. To put it meaningfully,
"It's so evil there, and something happens every day."
Cai Gen regretted asking him. This expression was really annoying.
"It's okay, get out."
Seeing that Cai Gen was in a bad mood, the fly returned to normal,
"Are the evil things you are talking about unclean and supernatural?"
"Yes, that's what it means."
Seeing that he was right, the fly took out another cigarette from the cigarette case on the table. He didn't mind that it was a fake cigarette and lit it casually.
"I don't know if anything evil has happened in recent years, but that building was renovated and there have been incidents before."
Renovating an old building? Has anything happened before? Cai Gen listened very carefully, took out a cigarette and lit it.
This fake cigarette is really fake, and flies can still smoke it one after another. I really admire the character of flies who don’t take advantage but suffer losses. I feel inferior and I won’t be able to catch up in a few lifetimes.
Stare into the fly's little eyes and wait for the next step.
Flies really don't care at all, whether the cigarette is fake or not, as long as you don't buy it with your own money, it is a good cigarette.
"We were still young at that time. We came here in 1993 or 1994. Dancing had just become fashionable here. We danced fast four and slow four. A song and dance hall opened in the city. I don’t remember what it was called. It was on the same floor as the Red Romantic Hotel. It’s not popular now, but it was the only nightclub at that time and it was full every day.”
Cai Gen was a little anxious and urged,
"Can you get to the point?"
The fly took a puff of cigarette, clicked his lips, looked at Cai Gen and said,
"Lao Gen, I put too much tofu braised pork in the morning. I seem to have been stung. I need some tea."
Too much marinade? Because you don’t need money? Cai Gen thought again, if he eats tofu nao, he must also eat fried dough sticks,
"You've had breakfast, and you're still here? Are you still eating so much?"
"I don't think you can eat it yourself. I'll eat more. I'm not going to save lunch. I'll hurry up and get some tea."
Well, if you don’t get rich, the sky will strike like lightning.
Cai Gen put away the dishes and chopsticks in the kitchen and made a cup of tea. The authentic West Lake Longjing. Because it was bought online, the water was not very boiling, and the tea leaves were floating on it.
He brought back the tea and put it in front of the fly, signaling him to speak quickly.
When the fly saw the tea, he didn't care. He blew it carefully for a long time and took a big sip.
"The tea is a bit broken, but the taste is okay. Laogen, you can make tea and add some maca in the future. My wife is a micro-business, so they are all genuine."
The Fly Wife is a doctor in a hospital. Her income is already quite high in this small city, but she still wants to start a micro-business?
By the way, the patient group is like a fat sheep. It is not a family, and it is really satisfying to not enter the same family.
"Bring me some first and I'll try it."
Cai Gen's words were wrong, and the fly quickly changed the subject, "Speaking of that song and dance hall, there was no firefighting equipment in those days. The wires were still seriously aged, so it caught fire."
The fly took a sip of tea and continued,
"Actually, it's okay to catch fire. However, the boss was mentally ill. In order to prevent fare evasion, he locked the fire escape. The song and dance hall was less than 300 square meters, and there were only 300 people dancing. Later, it was said that more than 230 people were burned to death. Just a few Ten of them ran out, and most of them were blocked at the entrance to the stairs, piled on top of each other and burned to death. It was so tragic that it shocked the whole country.”
When it came to more than 230 people, Cai Gen's eyelids twitched. There were more than 200 people in those piles of black shadows.
Are those charred black figures the victims of the fire?
When Cai Gen heard this, combined with his experience in the stairwell last night, his scalp began to explode.
Yes, they have been running for more than 30 years and have not escaped from the fire.
Seeing Cai Gen's eyes straightened, he didn't care about drinking tea anymore, as if he was thinking of something,
"By the way, my aunt's uncle told me about it later.
He would take the last train to the city to dance with many people every time, and he was very addicted.
As a result, on the day of the accident, after he got in the car, a child pulled his mother out of the car and said that there was no one in the car.
My brother-in-law was just like me. He was so clever. When he heard something was wrong, he immediately got out of the car and escaped disaster. If he had gotten in the car, he would probably have been thrown into the dance hall. ”
It's not unusual for children to see those things.
Cai Gen has experienced this. When his son was a child, he often saw many special things and was always frightened awake at night.
After many unsuccessful attempts to seek medical treatment, he went to see a master, and that was when he discovered that his wife needed to take action.
Now his son is 8 years old, and he has not been scared to tears at night for more than five years. His wife always says that she only takes action for her son's sake. Cai Gen doesn't know the specific situation.
"Lao Gen, did you go to the Hong Romantic Hotel to deliver food yesterday? What did you see?"
Cai Gen didn't answer the fly, and slowly calmed down, Cai Gen continued to ask,
"Has anything else happened there? Like someone hanging or something?"
Blinking his little eyes, the fly tried hard to recall, but still shook his head,
"I haven't heard of it. It is said that Zhao Laoer bought the building and renovated it. He even asked a monk to do French style. Nothing else happened."
Who is Zhao Laoer? Judging from this tone, he must be a socialite.
I've already done French, why are there so many shadows? What's that hanging on the headlight?
Cai Gen couldn't figure it out either. He might as well go and see the master first. When he thought of seeing the master, it was so expensive. How much would it cost?
"Have you brought any money?"
The fly very skillfully took a stack of 100 yuan and a small book from his small wallet,
“Is ten thousand enough?”
It was not the first time that Cai Gen saw the cleanliness of flies. He was still very impressed by the professionalism of flies and replied,
"It should be about the same."
At this time, the fly began to talk and record in a small book,
"Lao Gen, December 13th, add ten thousand, um, sign."
After saying that, he handed the small book to Cai Gen. Cai Gen looked at it and saw that it was true, so he signed his name. When he was about to take the money, he was held down by a fly.
"Lao Gen, my brother Ming has settled the score. Listen to me and tell you."
Cai Gen was also stunned. Haven't they all signed? What else are you talking about?
There are no winds and waves on the ground in my heart, and there are green mountains and green waters everywhere; there is transformation and education in the nature sky, and I can see fish leaping and kites flying wherever I touch. Quoted from "Cai Gen Tan"
