Chapter Twenty-Four: Three Middle Ground Forests
"Don't worry, you can't forget. Li Haoran stretched out his hand and waved at Luo Tianhong, "Pay attention to safety on the road." ”
Luo Tianhong agreed, rode a motorcycle and left, Lu Manman looked at some of the pirated books piled up on the ground, stepped forward and flipped through them twice, turned his head to Li Haoran with a smile and said, "I can also help you buy these books of yours, but you have to give me money." ”
"I don't need you to sell it now, let's take your tape first, in the box, pick it yourself. Li Haoran pointed to a large cardboard box against the wall in the room.
"Wow, that's so much!" Lu Manman opened the box, and his eyes instantly glazed.
"How many boxes do I take?" Lu Manman began to look down and choose.
"Six boxes, no more. Li Haoran said casually.
"I know the students of No. 3 Middle School, I can find someone to sell these things in No. 3 Middle School, the management of No. 3 Middle School is relatively lax, and if you don't care about these things at all, it is definitely much more convenient to sell them than No. 1 Middle School and No. 2 Middle School. Lu Manman took out six cassette tapes from the box and held them in his hand.
"Then you can repay it by borrowing more than thirty yuan from others, isn't it?" Li Haoran asked with a smile.
"Of course, I still hope to make my own money to pay it off. Lu Manman looked up at Li Haoran and spoke.
Since selling pirated tapes at school, several people led by Li Haoran have met a lot of school students, and even accepted a lot of younger brothers, and it has become much easier to inquire about something in the school, Lu Manman does have a cousin in the second year of junior high school in the third middle school, this news was inquired by Wang Wei, I don't know the news after a few people. Yesterday morning, after Zhang Qiang learned that the tapes in the hands of several people who helped him sell pirated tapes had been confiscated, Zhang Qiang became very angry, and even asked Lu Manman and the two boys for the money for the tapes.
The girl in class 6 is Zhang Qiang's girlfriend, Zhang Qiang can't wipe his face, this incident makes Zhang Qiang's subordinates except for a few dead friends, most of the remaining gangsters have distanced themselves from Zhang Qiang. For this reason, Li Haoran also met a few good students in the second year of junior high school, who used to follow Qiangzi, but now he has a grudge against Qiangzi and has taken refuge in Li Haoran, and Zhao Li in Class 5 is one of them.
"You have a cousin named Lu Lin, who will come to pick you up after school every afternoon, are you asking him to help you sell it in No. 3 Middle School?" Li Haoran looked at Lu Manman's face with a stunned expression and laughed completely.
"Damn, do you still know where my family lives?" Lu Manman said with some annoyance.
"I really don't know this, in order to pay off Zhang Qiang's money yesterday, I asked Zhao Li from your class to lend it to you, so that you can help me contact the students of No. 3 Middle School in the future, but I didn't expect you to take the initiative to come to me. Li Haoran said.
"I said, I don't usually have much contact with Zhao Li, he will take the initiative to lend me money, I thought he had a crush on me. Lu Manman lowered his head and muttered to himself.
"If you have time to treat the youthful and beautiful acne on your face, I guess it's possible. Li Haoran glanced at Lu Manmandao.
"I really can't communicate with people like you, can I chat?" Lu Manman said, rolling his eyes.
Cheng Tang's parents are not often at home, so Cheng Tang's usual lunch is instant noodles with eggs, ham sausages, and green vegetable leaves, mixed stews, Cheng Tang took a spoon and walked out of the kitchen to the two of them: "Do you want to try my craft?"
"Did you put salt?" Li Haoran asked casually.
"Then you wait a little longer. Cheng Tang walked into the kitchen awkwardly with a spoon.
After the meal, the three of them went out together, and walking on the road, Li Haoran glanced at Lu Manman and said with a smile: "Cheng Tang was warmly invited just now, you even ate two big bowls, and you ate more than me and Cheng Tang." ”
"Bastard, it's not because I didn't eat in the morning. Lu Manman rolled his eyes at Li Haoran with a big grin, "If the students in my class know that I eat so much, then I won't pay back the ten yuan you lent me through Zhao Li." ”
"If you dare not pay it back, I will let Zhao Li publicize it in your class, you Lu Manman is a rice bucket. After Li Haoran finished speaking, he ran over with a smile.
After school in the afternoon, Li Haoran and Cheng Tang came to Cheng Tang's house early, and a few people sat in the courtyard listening to music and doing homework. Half an hour later, Lu Manman came with his cousin Lu Lin, and after an introduction, several people knew each other, Li Haoran believed in Lu Manman's character, pointed to the only pile of books on the ground, and said: "The wholesale price is three and one pieces a piece, how much to sell is your ability, you can sell these first, and then give me the cost when you go back." ”
Li Haoran and Cheng Tang looked a little bit like students, but Lu Lin looked different, his appearance was completely bastard, with a shaved head, studs on his ears, and he walked and swayed. When Lu Lin followed Lu Manman over, Li Haoran hurriedly beckoned the Lu family sisters and brothers to sit on the stool, don't stand, especially Lu Lin, standing like a tree with a crooked neck, he couldn't stand up straight, and a few students who came to buy tapes were scared away by Lu Lin's appearance.
After Lu Lin sat down, he tilted his head and glanced at a few people, shaking his legs, others tilted their heads only slightly sideways, Lu Lin's head was about to turn sideways, if he didn't know that Lu Lin picked up Lu Manman every day, it was said that Lu Lin was a dumbfounder, it is estimated that everyone present would believe it. Lu Lin tilted his head, shook his legs, looked at Li Haoran and asked, "Can I sell some more tapes?"
"You take so much, can you sell it out?" the fat man smoked a cigarette and looked at Lu Lin and asked suspiciously.
Lu Lin is still the first to make the fat man treat him solemnly, Lu Lin tilted his head and turned to the fat man, "I'm not stupid, I can't sell out, can I find you so much?"
"Are you sure?" asked the fat man, throwing a cigarette at Lu Lin.
"Of course. Lu Linli took the cigarette, his whole body trembled up and down, and he bared his teeth and explained to the fat man, "I have dozens of brothers in the third middle school, and I am familiar with the current boss of the third middle school, and this little thing is not enough for me to sell in a day." ”
Lu Lin, who was sitting on a stool like sitting on a nail, could still be familiar with the boss of the third middle school, the fat man was very curious, leaned on the table and asked, "Who is the boss of your third middle school?"
Lu Lin couldn't sit still, stood up "poof", tilted his body and stretched out his hand to the fat man, "It's probably so high." Lu Lin stretched out his hand and lifted it two centimeters above his head, and touched his bald head again, "My hairstyle is all according to him." Then he sat down again, and said very confidently: "But he is not as handsome as me." ”
"What? he's stumbling better than you?" asked Ogawa with his mouth wide open.
"What do you call that? I'm so much more handsome than him. Lu Lin's face was very proud.
"Is a hundred cassettes a lot?" Li Haoran was also shocked by Lu Lin's words, and tried to speak.
"Then let's do it first, I'll come back tomorrow afternoon to get it. Lu Lin stood up with trembling legs and said politely.
The fat man stepped forward to help Lu Lin put the tape into the schoolbag, Lu Lin's hands trembled, his neck shook when he squatted, and he didn't count the number of tapes, he put the schoolbag on his back and said hello to Li Haoran and left with Lu Manman.
", mouse, do you think this guy will pit us?" After Lu Lin left, the fat man tilted his head and asked.
"Cao, are you infected by Lu Lin, can't you speak with your head straight?" Li Haoran reminded him helplessly, and then said: "We shouldn't be pitted, No. 3 Middle School is also a big market, and seeing this guy like a drug, you can feel that No. 3 Middle School is more chaotic." I estimate that tomorrow afternoon, the boss in Lu Lin's mouth will also come to talk to us about business. ”
Zhangjiazhai, the three gangsters who got together to play cards two days ago have no interest in listening to songs, life is like this, once you get a thing and get used to it, you want to change your taste, and it is not interesting to listen to the song all the time, and the three of them still have four hundred boxes of pirated tapes left in their hands, and now they are worried. Originally, the three of them felt that the packaging of these tapes was intact and should be easy to sell, especially the guy who was robbed did not call the police, but when he sold them to the audio-visual boss, the boss would always ask him where these tapes came from. The three of them can't always say that they grabbed it, and they can't say why, especially when the boss asks them if they have a purchase channel or something like that, the three often can't answer.
The audio-visual boss pressed the price of this kind of tape of unknown origin very low, five cents a box, and the three of them also knew that it would be a loss to sell at this price, so they were busy all morning, and put the tape home. The three of them sat at the table and smoked, the songs around them had long been ignored, and the three of them were trying to find a way, but the way was not easy to think, and the previous audio boss had already beaten the three of them.
"Otherwise, sell a part of the strong son in our village, see if he wants it?" In the end, the thinner third child came up with an idea.
There is no other attention at the moment, only this, if you don't go out to work, there is no money to spend, since it is the attention that the third child came up with, it should be that the third child should go out to talk to Qiangzi, Qiangzi has now arrived home, and when the third child went to find Qiangzi, he grabbed two boxes of tapes. When the third child came to Qiangzi's house, Qiangzi was listening to the tape recorder depressedly, and Qiangzi was expecting Cheng Tang's tapes to sell for some money, but he didn't expect Li Haoran to report it.
The door of Qiangzi's house was not locked, the third child pushed the door directly in, and saw Qiangzi listening to songs in the courtyard, and his heart was happy, he came to the right place, since he listened to the song, he must buy a tape. After saying hello to Qiangzi with a smile, the third child walked over and handed him a cigarette, and then placed two cassettes on the table in front of Qiangzi.
"Where did you get the tapes?" Qiangzi looked at the two cassettes that the third child had brought over, completely blindfolded, because these tapes were so similar to the ones sold by the school.
"Don't care where I got it, I'll ask you a question, do you want it?" The third child smiled on his face, "If you want it, you can make a price, and I will give it to you if I feel suitable, we are all from the same village, I won't lie to you, I still have more than 400 boxes in my hand, I can sell them to you." ”
", I've been trying to find a way to buy some goods these days, but I can't find a purchase channel, it turns out that you have it here, so it saves trouble, go, go to your place to see." Qiangzi turned off the tape recorder excitedly, and followed the third child to the old family in the south of the village.
"Hadron is here, the tapes are all on the table, and you can pick whatever you like. The Boss laughed and pointed to a pile of tapes on the table.
"Damn, so many?" Qiangzi looked at the tapes piled up on the table and widened his eyes, took a box casually, and glanced down, "This is similar to what I saw at school, how much does Brother Zhang plan to sell for a box?"
"I just heard the third child say, you just listened to the song at home, then you must know the price, the price here is the same as outside, two five-day boxes. "The boss happily quoted the market price.
