Chapter 32 No Faith, No Standing
"In addition, I am willing to give five silver dollars as a token of appreciation to the person who introduced him. ”
"Really?"
There was another uproar in the crowd.
Hearing this, Lux hurriedly tried again, and even used the strength to breastfeed, but he still couldn't carry the wooden plaque and walk a few steps, so he had to give up helplessly.
"Thirty silver dollars? ”
"yes, yes, if I didn't know I didn't have that ability, I'd have gone up and tried it. ”
"It doesn't matter if you can't move it yourself, hurry up and find a wrestler, and you can earn five silver dollars. ”
"Lao Liu, isn't your son born with divine powers, it is said that he can carry a cow with his bare hands, why don't you ask him to try?"
The person called Lao Liu also had a look of remorse.
"My son went to the west of the city this morning to help build a house, and he knew that there was such a thing, and I would stop him if I said so. ”
The old man, who was missing a front tooth before, came up again: "Boss, don't you really want to use the old man's flat car?" After Li Xiaokuan's euphemistic refusal, the old man sighed and retreated.
Li Xiaokuan stood quietly, and there were more and more people around him, many of whom were watching a good show, so that half of his purpose was completed.
During this period, many people came with wrestlers, but those wrestlers could only barely lift them, but they could not carry them and walk.
The onlookers changed one after another, and it seemed that it was about to reach noon.
Except for a few idle people who were still waiting here, the rest just looked over to make sure that no one could move away and left.
"Dad, what are you doing here?"
At this time, a man about two meters tall suddenly walked in the distance, wearing only a single shirt with short sleeves, and he was all wet with sweat.
And it was the old man who was called Lao Liu before.
"Ah, Xiao Neng, you're back!"
"What's the matter, Dad, where is the rice, I'm starving. ”
Lao Liu hurriedly pulled him in front of Li Xiaokuan, and said to Li Xiaokuan: "Boss Wei, this is my son, look at this physique, there is nothing in the world that he can't move." ”
"What's the situation, Dad?"
Xiao Neng scratched his head a little innocently.
Lao Liu explained to him: "This is Boss Wei, the boss said, as long as you can move that plaque to the store, I will give you thirty silver dollars." ”
"Really?" Xiao Neng's sweat-stained face showed a look of surprise.
Li Xiaokuan nodded lightly.
"As long as you can do it, I will not break my word. ”
Xiao Neng hurriedly nodded: "Yes, you can, boss, please take a good look." ”
As he spoke, Xiao Neng spit out a mouthful of saliva and rubbed his hands, and when he was about to start moving, he suddenly realized something, smiled at Li Xiaokuan a little embarrassedly, and then quickly wiped his hands on his clothes.
Li Xiaokuan just smiled and didn't say anything.
I saw Xiao Neng take a deep breath and grab the edge of the wooden plaque with both hands.
"Up!"
With a low shout, the wooden plaque rose from the ground and was carried on his shoulder.
Li Xiaokuan noticed that when Xiao Neng was exerting force, there was a faint red light faintly wrapped around his arm.
Warrior?" he secretly guessed.
Xiao Neng carried the wooden plaque, although it looked a little difficult, but he seemed to have the strength to smile at Li Xiaokuanhan and asked, "Boss, where are you going?"
"Follow me. ”
Li Xiaokuan walked forward first, Xiao Neng hurriedly followed, followed by Su Yi who yawned and Lao Liu who smiled widely.
After that, there is the crowd of people.
"The plaque was carried away!"
For a while, the news spread all over East Street, and many people poked their heads out and looked at the street.
"Who carried it?
"Old Liu's son. ”
"No wonder, you see, I said it a long time ago, he is the only one who has so much strength in this entire East Street. ”
"Yes, the man's size is not for nothing, this money is the same as the one I picked up......"
"Let's go, go see the excitement?"
"Look, you're eating. ”
"What kind of food, it's not too late to come back and eat, this excitement is gone, but it's really gone." ”
"That's what I said, let's go!"
......
So there was such a strange scene on the East Street - a man walked in the front, followed by a large man carrying a huge wooden plaque, followed by three people, and after the three there was a large group of people.
The group passed by the neighborhood, attracting many people's sideways.
"Daddy, what are they doing?"
A child, who looked to be only three or four years old, pulled a man's trouser leg and pointed to the large group of people who were walking in Wuyang, and asked curiously.
The man picked up the boy and made him sit on his shoulder.
"Daddy doesn't know, take a closer look. ”
The boy grabbed the man's hair and craned his neck to look around.
When the crowd approached, the child asked curiously, "Daddy, what is written on that wooden sign?"
"I'll see, it's the Treasure Pavilion. ”
"Treasure Pavilion......" The childish child parroted and spoke, and his voice was milky.
......
......
......
Because Xiao Neng carried the wooden plaque, the speed of walking was much slower, and the journey of less than a quarter of an hour was almost two quarters of an hour.
"Right here. Li Xiaokuan walked to the front of the store.
"Put it here. ”
Xiao Neng gasped and removed the wooden plaque and wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead.
Li Xiaokuan directly threw a gold yuan coin to him, Xiao Neng carefully caught it, and the whole person was stunned.
"Boss, this ......"
Li Xiaokuan smiled and said: "Take it, the thirty silver dollars I agreed to give you directly will be given to you directly, and I will buy some furniture later, and then I will ask you for help, and the rest will be prepaid." ”
"This, it doesn't take so much ......"
"If the boss gives it to you, you will take it, and it is a waste of the boss's time. ”
Lao Liu walked up and said with a smile, and hugged his fist at Li Xiaokuan: "Boss Wei, if you want him to help in the future, just go to East Street and shout on the street." ”
"Thank you. Li Xiaokuan nodded with a smile and sent the father and son out of the store.
At this time, the people outside have already fried the pot.
"Didn't you say thirty silver dollars, how did you give one gold dollar?"
"Didn't Boss Wei say it, there is still something to do with him in the future. ”
"Oh my god, if this were for me, I wouldn't have to work for a year......
Li Xiaokuan walked outside, and someone immediately asked him: "Boss Wei, what kind of store do you open here?"
"yes, I don't think you have anything in it, what kind of business are you doing?"
Li Xiaokuan didn't answer positively, but just hugged his fist at the crowd.
"I'm sorry everyone, my store hasn't been cleaned up today, but I'm already planning to officially open tomorrow, and I hope you will have a lot of cheers when the time comes. As for what kind of store I have, everyone will know when they come tomorrow. ”
"That's ......"
"Didn't Boss Wei just bring the plaque, you guys are in a hurry, come back tomorrow." ”
"I'm going to come and see it tomorrow. ”
"Definitely, definitely. ”
After the crowd dispersed, Li Xiaokuan and Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Hey, yes. ”
Su Yi said with a smile: "In this way, there will be a lot of people who will come to see you open tomorrow, but how do you tell them that you are opening a money bank? I don't think they will necessarily accept this thing, and it is likely that none of them are willing to save." ”
"There's no rush, you have to take your time. ”
Li Xiaokuan also knows in his heart that the establishment of trust is a gradual matter, and he cannot rush it for a while, and it is even more difficult when he first arrives.
At this point, he needs to rely on the forces that have taken root in the local area.
"I'll have to go to Bai Lao later, and by the way, see how the progress of their Chamber of Commerce is. ”
"Okay, you go get busy, I'll go back to catch up on sleep. ”
Su Yi let out a long yawn and said weakly.
"Okay, hard work. ”
Su Yi didn't answer, turned to leave, yawning and waving her hand.
