The northern region pays attention to "but fifteen is a year", and the taste of the New Year in the first month is also particularly heavy.

"Chuanxiang Mansion" has been almost ten days after the incident, about two or three days ago, the Samsung Gang sent us the "Chuanxiang Mansion" title deed and related procedures, we also officially took over the largest restaurant on this big street, of course, all this is behind my mother's back, if she knows, she must have to worry for a long time, for Lu Shuai will not go to school after the New Year, this time I have experience with Lu Shuai, and the slogan is unified: "Uncle Dog has taken over a restaurant, let Lu Shuai go over to help!" For Lu Shuai not wanting to go to school, my mother tried hard to dissuade him for two or three days, and finally Uncle Gou went out and got it done with one sentence: "Three hundred and sixty lines, the best in the industry, the current chef is at least seven or eight thousand yuan a month, and he earns more than many college students! Lu Shuai is not the material to study, but he has a talent for learning to cook!"

Maybe it was Uncle Dog's who played a certain role, and my mother relented.

Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which is the last festival of the New Year, early in the morning after being routinely pulled out by Lu Shuai to ruthlessly "sharpen" it, Lu Shuai went to Uncle Dog's Internet café as usual to clean up, learn boxing and feet, I went to the "Chuanxiang Mansion" that was being renovated and went back to the rental house.

A day ago, the "Chuanxiang Mansion" began to be renovated, and now everything is stared at by Hao Nan and a few of his partners...

Since you have decided to reuse Hao Nan and treat him as a brother, you should give him enough trust, Lu Shuai used this excuse to gag me, and now I should be the most relaxed one in our group.

After breakfast, I was bored and leaned back on the sofa to watch the "Spring Festival Gala" replayed over and over again, and almost fell asleep comfortably, Bai Xiaodie happily ran in from outside the house, and pulled me up and walked out the door regardless of it.

"My eldest lady, where are you going to sell me?" I joked, my fingers dishonestly kneading Fluttershy's jade palm.

"It's like there's a place for you!" Bai Xiaodie glanced at me, didn't care about my dishonest moves, and then thought of something as if her willow eyebrows were condensed, and said with a happy smile: "Chu Fei, just now I heard my neighbor Grandma Wang say that there is a temple fair in Nancheng every fifteenth year, can you accompany me to go around?"

"It's a great honor to be able to serve a beautiful woman!" I shaved Fluttershy's proud little nose and took her hand and walked out of the courtyard.

Living in the village is not very convenient, you have to run to the big street to get a taxi, there is no way, the road conditions in the village are quite rugged, and they are all winding roads, plus most of the two villages in Nanguan and Beiguan are rented by college students, and the buildings are basically empty for the Chinese New Year, and Bai Xiaodie and I waited for almost ten minutes at the intersection of the big street before we met a taxi.

"Big brother, is the temple fair in Nancheng lively?" Sitting in the back seat of the taxi, I firmly held Bai Xiaodie's little hand, and while rubbing it dishonestly, I pretended to pat the back seat of the taxi driver twice and asked out loud.

"Nancheng temple fair? It's nothing more than some food and drink that can be bought usually, and now people have money, and it's actually a lively picture of a lot of people when it comes to visiting temple fairs... Let me tell you, try not to buy things indiscriminately at the temple fair, not to mention the expensive ones, there are some small gangs in Nancheng at the temple fair! Especially outsiders like you are the most likely to be pitted!" "A dark-skinned, bearded taxi driver in his thirties who speaks with a local accent and is particularly talkative.

"The gangs in the city are so big, and even the temple fair has the shadow of the underworld in it?" I can't help but feel particularly curious about the security of the city, and the level of chaos is probably even better than that of the HD city that never sleeps.

"Who says it's not! A few years ago, although Gao Bin, Fang Liang, and Fang Jian's two groups of people made a lot of noise, shouting and shouting and killing! But at least they won't harm ordinary people, whether they use knives or guns, it's just a fight between the characters on their roads, how can it be like now, the whole city is full of black smoke and miasma, and everyone dares to pat their chests and take the two younger brothers to say that they are mixed with society! Alas..."The taxi driver's face was full of misery, and he shook his head with a long sigh and said:" There's no way, it's a person who has to live, just take us as a rental, it was a high-paying career a few years ago, and now it's really impossible to do it, today this one collects protection money, tomorrow the one who wants to pay for cleaning, and then meets a few bastard Laipi, don't give money in the car, and sometimes you may blackmail us!"

"Big brother, since it's so difficult, let's change careers...", Bai Xiaodie asked with a look of unbearability.

"How can it be so easy to think, I belong to the sports car relatively late, the taxi I bought with a loan has not been repaid yet, although the taxi is not so profitable now, the income is relatively fixed, I have a wife and children, I can make do with it every day!" The taxi driver opened the window and lit a cigarette and shook his head with a wry smile.

"Big brother, how are taxi drivers like you in the city now?" I asked aloud with a bold idea that slowly came to my mind.

"It's not much, it's not much, there are at least two hundred taxis, and I know that there must be at least seventy or eighty of them in the same batch as me, and now we are all running together, and if we are lucky, those who can be transferred out will have already been transferred out!" the taxi driver nodded and said.

"Did you pay these bastards before?" I asked softly, smiling.

But I used to pay very little, mainly to the taxi in Nancheng and Xicheng to pay Gao Bin, and to pay Fang Liang and Fang Jian in the countryside and township, at that time, to be honest, to pay these bosses to pay the money, who is really in charge of the podium, if you take the car to shake off the skin, shout at the podium, at most a few minutes there will be a special brother in charge of the matter, not that I brag with you, I myself met once, there is a younger brother of Gao Bin to take my car, drink too much and play bastard, I don't want to give money! I tentatively used the walkie-talkie to breathe... And guess what?" seems to be a natural joker for taxi drivers, such as the big brother in front of us.

"It can't be Gao Bin coming, right?" Bai Xiaodie listened in fascination.

"That's nothing, Gao Bin is known as the leader of the city, how can he personally deal with such trivialities, but he is also a very awesome big brother, this big brother didn't say a word after he came, he went up and gave that bastard a few mouths, and finally apologized to me with a pleasant face, and gave several times more money for the car..."The taxi driver laughed, and finally threw the cigarette butt out of the window, shook his head and sighed and said:" Alas, such days are gone, and now these dog mongrels, the protection fee is blacker than the other, and they are forced to ignore it, if you dare to have an opinion and not pay the money, the car will wait to be smashed..."

"It's really not easy!" I nodded in agreement and continued to ask, "Big brother, how do you all pay now?"

"It's hard to say, it's too chaotic! Three days this gang asked for it, and two days the gang was destroyed and replaced by another group of people, I don't even know who to pay now, anyway, whoever will collect it will give it to whomever it is, we don't have to choose..."The taxi driver smiled and joked: "Look at my brother like this, he also wants to get a piece of the pie?" haha..."

"This thing can't be said well! Maybe one day I'll mix up with a great big brother in society, and I may really come to collect my brother's protection money!" I also joked haha.

"Then the old brother will have to take less from the old brother!" the taxi driver shook his head, and then dealt with it without taking it seriously at all.

"Then it doesn't have to be! Brother will leave a mobile phone number later, if we take a taxi or something, we can call you directly, okay?" I took out my phone and prepared to write down the phone number of this talkative taxi driver, no matter what happens in the future, there will be nothing wrong with multiple friends and multiple ways.

"Alright, brother! I'll park you right here! There are too many people in front of you to turn around, so why don't you just go down here?" Through the front windshield, we could already see the bustling flow of people in the street market in front of us and all kinds of small traders and vendors selling their wares, and the bearded taxi driver stopped us near the side of the road.

After the car was paid, Fluttershy and I held hands and prepared to drive into the downtown area.

"Brother, don't forget! Buy less things at the temple fair, if you really like something, you must bargain to the death, otherwise you will be targeted, thinking that you are fat sheep, and it will be difficult to do it at that time!" Before getting out of the car, Bai Xiaodie's sympathy was overflowing, and she gave the taxi driver an extra ten dollars, and I think it was for this reason that the taxi driver took the trouble to ask us again.

"Thanks, big brother!" Fluttershy nodded obediently and waved her hand at the driver with a smile.

After saying goodbye to the taxi driver, the two of us walked hand in arm towards the bustling downtown area, where the temple fair is the temple fair, and the cries of all kinds of vendors near the roadside stalls are endless.

"Rock sugar gourd... Pure rock sugar, wild hawthorn, no sweetness, no money!

"Marshmallows, fragrant and big marshmallows, five dollars a piece!"

"Sugar cane... Taiwanese big sugar cane that is so sweet that it hurts to have a toothache..."All kinds of cries and cries are endless, following the surging flow of people, Bai Xiaodie and I are afraid of being squeezed apart, and holding each other's hands tighter, "Chu Fei, there is a candy pincher! Let's go pinch you, okay..."Bai Xiaodie suddenly looked at a small candy pinching stall and pulled me over happily.

Roll around asking for tickets, asking for recommendations, asking for rewards!
