Chapter 82: Robbery at Night
After the others left, the courtyard was quiet, and Li Xian and Du Jiaming sat at the stone table and chatted.
Celadon tiptoed with two cups of steaming tea, and sat obediently beside the two, holding his chin in his hands, listening to their conversation.
"Lao Du, how is the business lately?" Li Xian picked up the teacup and took a shallow sip, it was a tea made of chrysanthemums in late autumn, with a hint of bitterness, but with an endless aftertaste.
Du Jiaming took out the notebook he was carrying, licked his saliva, turned to the last page and said: "I collected thousands of waste products this month, sold them and earned nearly 1,000 yuan, bought 30 silver dollars at a low price, 14 Tongbao, I don't know what the market will be in the future, and others, such as night pots, pig troughs and other things from the previous year, have also received a few." ”
"Yes, the profit is still very large, don't worry about the cultural relics, the more valuable it will be in the future. By the way, do you want to recruit some people, you work alone every day, it's weird and tiring. Li Xian asked for his opinion.
"This proprietor doesn't have to worry about it, there are not a few informants in our business, who has antiques, they all know it clearly, and they go door-to-door to persuade every once in a while, and there are many people who are in a hurry to sell. "Du Jiaming has been immersed in antiques for a long time, and he has raised a lot of younger brothers, often helping him collect scrap products, and he settles his wages.
Seeing that Du Jiaming had his own opinions, Li Xian didn't say anything more.
Li Xian went back to the room to rest for almost half an afternoon, and when Celadon woke him up, it was already dark, and dinner was made by Du Jiaming, a bowl of boiled cabbage and a bowl of stewed pork ribs with radish.
Because he was extremely hungry, although the taste of the dish was very strange, Li Xian was not picky.
After eating, Li Xian chatted with Du Jiaming for a few words, and then went to school, because tomorrow is Monday, not only to run but also to read English, so it is most convenient to live in school at night.
In the Western Capital in November, before it was nine o'clock, it was completely dark, and Li Xian was groping around the black-lit streets with a flashlight.
After walking a few steps, he always felt cold behind him, and subconsciously glanced back, only to see four or five figures walking towards him.
In just a few seconds, he quickly understood their intentions, what else could they have in this big night except robbing money?
He ran as soon as he pulled his legs, and before he had run a hundred meters before he was overtaken, and the group surrounded him in the center, and said with a cruel smile: "Run! Run again and break your legs." ”
"Everyone, you have to forgive people and spare people, you are just asking for money, I don't have much on me, I still have a hundred yuan, let me go, let's treat it as if we haven't seen it, how about it?"
Since he couldn't run away, Li Xian immediately calmed down.
"A hundred?" these people's eyes turned green when they heard this, "bring it." ”
"Good. Li Xian touched it in his pocket, took out the hundred yuan in his underwear, and held it up in front of the group.
"Count you as acquaintances, let's go, I waited for several days, and finally waited for a fat sheep. One person took a hundred pieces and waved his hand happily.
Li Xian raised his steps and left, only to lose a hundred yuan.
"Wait, search him, maybe there's something else valuable. ”
Another said sadly, Li Xian's heart jumped when he heard it, and there was a pager in his pocket, which was thousands of things.
"Don't you speak honestly? How can you mix on the road? The fourth master of the antique street, I don't know if you know me, I am his sworn brother Li Zhuzi, thanks to the people on the road who can afford it, call me a jade face to kill the Buddha, today I have repeatedly endured, you don't have to get an inch. ”
Li Xian stopped and said angrily, only hoping that the name of the fourth master would be easy to use and that he could bluff people.
"On the road, Fourth Master?" The group of people looked at each other with bewildered expressions, not understanding what Li Xian meant at all.
Li Xian sighed secretly, daring to play the piano to Niu just now, and in desperation, he had to say: "There is still a mile away from the school, I am a poor student there, and the eldest brother will let me go." ”
"Hahaha...... Just now he killed the Buddha with a jade face, why did he coax it all of a sudden?" A coquettish smile broke the night.
"Who?" shouted the group.
A woman walked out of the dark street, through the faint flashlight light, it could be seen that the woman was not very old, it seemed that she was also a student, wearing a sweatshirt, and her figure was very well-proportioned, she glanced at Li Xian with disdain, and then looked at the group of people and said: "In broad daylight, you dare to block the road and rob, this girl will eliminate harm for the people today." ”
"Ahem, it's night. Li Xian kindly reminded, and looking at the squinting eyes of this group of people, I was afraid that this second girl who was addicted to martial arts was going to be robbed.
"If you want you to say, the light is in my heart, a big man is like a grandson, shameful!" said the woman disdainfully.
Li Xian pursed his lips, hoping that the second girl would not beg her to save her life.
"I didn't expect it to be delivered to my door. One of the scarfaces in the group said in a daze, and his eyes never moved from the woman.
"No more nonsense. The woman assumed an offensive pose.
"It turned out to be a practitioner. The crowd exclaimed, and their interest in her intensified.
To Li Xian's surprise, the woman ran straight towards the group of people, and when she was two meters away from the crowd, she flew into the air with her strength, her whole body formed an arc in the air, and when she landed, she kicked a person in the crotch.
With a heart-rending roar, everyone reacted from surprise.
Li Xian listened to the pig-like howl, secretly screaming for the person holding his crotch, and when he looked at the woman's indifferent face, he only felt a chill in his crotch.
I thought this woman was a bronze, but I didn't expect it to be a king.
The remaining four people rushed up, took out the sticks they had brought with them, and beckoned to the woman.
It seems that after that kick, the woman is exhausted, and in the face of everyone's attack, she gradually can't parry.
Li Xian saw that the situation was not right, and when they were confronted, he turned around and ran.
"Hey, why are you like this?" the woman shouted behind him.
Li Xian thought that it was really inappropriate for him to run away like this, so he immediately stopped and shouted: "That's a lot of money, I picked up another fifty yuan! Don't rob me of my money." ”
If he shouts for help, no one may be willing to come forward, but if he shouts to pick up money, he believes that many people will come out in a short time.
It's not that he is helpless, he doesn't want to alarm the masses.
Sure enough, as expected, one figure after another ran out of the house and asked, "Where is the money?
Li Xian pointed to the group of people who robbed him of the money just now and said: "In their hands, they have all picked it up, this money is definitely not theirs, if it falls here, maybe one of you will fall." ”
The crowd saw that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it, and nodded in response: "Yes, I lost two hundred in a walk at night." ”
"I dropped three hundred. ”
"I dropped five hundred. ”
Li Xian saw that they were all enthusiastic and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Let them spit it out!"
A group of people who were fighting suddenly found themselves surrounded by the crowd and asked in surprise, "You guys, what do you want to do?"
