Li Du chose to change industries, which surprised the treasure pickers. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
In addition to the surprise, the treasure hunters also had regrets, and Turis said disappointedly: "Lee, didn't you do a good job in the warehouse auction market?
"yes, who will lead us when you leave?"
"The treasure pickers in Flagpole City are the only ones you can follow, or can we go with you to the thrift market?"
Black Fang Robbie and other treasure pickers in the thrift trade suddenly became anxious: "Don't, guys, we have always come to the well water and not the river water, are you sure you want to grab food with us?"
The market is so big, one more person will have one less bite to eat, once all the treasure pickers in the warehouse auction enter, the treasure pickers in the thrift trade may have no food.
Li Du waved his hand and said, "Hey, hey, guys, be quiet and listen to me." ”
The treasure pickers stopped arguing and looked at him with their wine glasses.
He said: "I really like the job of warehouse auction, I will not leave the market, but winter is the off-season for warehouse auctions, and I want to go somewhere else." ”
"Thrift trading is a lot of fun, it's a whole new environment, so if I join it, you won't be surprised, I love trying new things. ”
"It's just an attempt, isn't it?"
Li Du said: "Don't listen to Boss Fu's nonsense, we have never been in contact with this business, we just went to feel the atmosphere, how can we rob your business?"
There is no eternal friendship, only eternal interests.
This applies not only between countries, but also between people.
Li Du is also a Chinese-American, the United States is considered the territory of whites and blacks, and it is very difficult for yellow people to work here, no matter what industry or environment.
The camp has been established for more than half a year, and people usually like to come over, hello, hello, hello, everyone, but when it comes to the conflict of interests, the usual friendship has to stand aside.
However, compared with when he first entered the warehousing and auction industry, Li Du joined the thrift trading industry this time and encountered much less hostility and resistance.
In the afternoon, they drank beer and ate jerky and chatted, and most of the treasure pickers were still friendly to them, and some of the questions he asked were answered.
In the evening, as the treasure pickers gradually left, Li Du shouted to Victoria, "Hey, little girl, it's time to go home." ”
Victoria walked over and whispered, "Brother Li, Ivana lives here alone, she is very lonely and scared at night. ”
Her dad was with her. ”
"But her dad can't stay in the same bed with her. "Also, Ivana didn't go to school, she wanted to learn to draw, she wanted to learn mathematics, I could teach her, and I could teach her a lot when I lived here during the holidays." ”
Li Du smiled: "Yes, this is a holiday, you can come over during the day, okay?"
Rejected twice by him, Victoria didn't have the courage to continue to persevere, and just muttered in a low voice: "She was lonely and scared at night, she told me." ”
Li Du wanted to take her into the car to take her home, but at this time, Brother Wolf, who had been staying silently beside him, asked, "Victoria, have you seen Ivana?"
"Yes. The little girl nodded.
"Aren't you scared then?" asked Brother Wolf continued.
Victoria's eyes widened, "She doesn't steal my food, she doesn't tear my comic books, she doesn't push me down, why am I afraid?"
Brother Wolf was silent for a moment and said, "You didn't see her whole body, if you slept together at night, you would see her, and you would be scared." ”
"Sleeping together at night, is she going to beat me up and grab my stuff?" asked Victoria.
Brother Wolf was amused by her innocence and said, "Of course not, Ivana is a kind girl, just like you, she is a little angel." ”
"Well, how could I be scared? Her skin is bad, but that's not what makes her a bad person," Victoria said. ”
Hearing this, Li Du knew why Ivana kept wearing the veil.
Apparently, she has a serious skin disease, and in order to protect her dignity, or out of physical need, Brother Wolf has been wearing a veil on her.
After Victoria finished speaking, Brother Wolf looked at Li Du and said, "Boss, can you find a way to keep Victoria? Let her be a companion with Ivana, and I will tell you the reason." ”
Children are social animals, and they spend long periods of time alone, even when accompanied by their parents, which can lead to a lack of personality.
Li Du looked at Victoria, the little girl's face was red with excitement, and she looked at him with extremely expectant eyes.
He sighed and said, "I have to find a way to negotiate with Mother Mesa, it's not easy, it's hard. ”
It's impossible for Mama Mesa to let her children stay outside for a long time, it's a responsibility, and who knows what people outside will do to these orphans?
Li Du communicated with her, and sure enough, the other party did not accept it.
As he thought, Mesa's mother trusted them very much, but it was not bottomless. So Victoria had no problem going to them during the day, and it was okay to stay here once in a while, but it was impossible to stay overnight for a long time.
Li Du had no choice, so he simply threw the problem to Hans and let Hans solve it.
Hans rolled his eyes angrily: "Good things didn't come to me!"
Brother Wolf told Victoria to go to Ivana first, and the little girl was so excited that she ran like a bird out of the cage, and her little short legs ran as fast as she could.
There was no one around, and Brother Wolf suddenly said: "Ivana is not a skin disease, it is an ammunition burn." ”
Li Du: "Huh?"
Brother Wolf looked at the sunset in the western sky and said, "Actually, I am a celebrity in Germany, and I have suffered a terrorist attack. ”
Li Du knew that he was going to talk about his experience, and there must be a lot of things to say, so he didn't squeak and listened to him quietly.
"When I used to serve in the army and the police department, I arrested a lot of vicious criminals, not ordinary criminals, but some bigwigs and leaders. ”
"We did a good job of keeping secrets, and our identities were not leaked. But I've been doing it for too long, and some of the criminals I caught paid bribes from people inside the system and ended up getting my information. ”
"So, the terrorist attack, all my family ......" he smiled and spread his hands, smiling sadly, "My parents, wife, son, boom, are gone!"
Li Du patted him on the shoulder and said heavily, "I probably know." ”
Brother Wolf said: "That's it, God is kind to me, leaving Ivana, but the whole body is severely burned, and the internal organs are cracked and bleeding." ”
"I have to save her, and the funny thing is that I was born and died for the country, but the country is not willing to spend money to save my daughter. ”
"All my savings, the savings of my comrades, are still not enough. Brother Wolf shook his head, "Then I made a vote and got a sum of money to save Ivana, but the price was that I couldn't stay in China anymore and could only come to the United States." ”
