Chapter 303: Collecting Protection Money
"Mom, mom, what's wrong with you, don't be angry, don't be angry..."
Another bottle that flew over, Qiao Xilin didn't continue to stay in the store after dodging it, and after kicking over a table, he turned around and left directly.
And Qiao Yixuan's mother also covered her chest with one hand angrily after Qiao Xilin left, leaning against the wall with her back slightly and panting.
Qiao Yixuan looked at her mother's situation and was even more anxious, tears flashed in her eyes, and she kept comforting her mother to dissipate her anger, don't be angry.
At this moment, the small shop was already in a mess, and the diners had long since left, leaving only the leftovers on the table and the tables, chairs and benches that Qiao Xilin had kicked over when he left.
As for those who took the opportunity to escape the bill without giving money, they didn't know where they went. Before the meal, the mother and daughter didn't think about chasing them back.
"Alas, what iniquity I have done in my last life! When and where will our mother's hard life be the end? Good daughter, I think it's better for you to get married early, and when the time comes, you will have a support, and you don't have to suffer from this anger all day long, and you will be blocked by the threat of things that are not human..."
Joy's mother rested against the wall for a while and felt a lot better, but she couldn't help but sigh and say a word.
There are two flowers, one on each branch.
The hard-working mother and daughter in the small shop sighed and said as they cleaned up the mess. And Qiao Xilin also ran around the alleys with a belly of anger.
At this time, I didn't know where I bowed my head and went around, but I just turned a corner and saw a few little ruffians with colorful hair and cigarettes in their hands, squatting on the ground and blowing nonsense.
Originally, he was still angry because he didn't get the money, and he suddenly thought of a bad move. Standing on the spot, he admired himself for a few words, and then took out the remaining half of a pack of cigarettes from his body, and then walked over to the little ruffians with a smile.
While taking out a few cigarettes from the cigarette case, he said with a smile: "Brothers, what are you idle, how about you please do a little favor?" ”
When the little ruffians heard this, they looked up, and Qiao Xilin was alone, and he looked obscene, and at this time he also smiled and handed over his cigarette, so he opened his mouth and scolded: "You are idle when you step on a horse, and your brothers are resting in the sun!" Say, what's the matter. ”
The person who seemed to be the leader here opened his mouth and scolded, and the person had already stood up and walked to Qiao Xilin, and stretched out his hand and unceremoniously snatched the cigarette case, as for the two or three cigarettes that Qiao Xilin smoked out of his hand, the rest of the ruffians were not polite to him, and took advantage of Qiao Xilin's stunned moment, and grabbed them too.
Qiao Xilin has no ability at all, at most he is a waste who bullies the soft and is afraid of the hard. Usually at most, it depends on Joy's mother and daughter, and sometimes I meet a on the street who doesn't dare to talk back when she scolds the street.
At this time, the other party took away all the cigarettes, so naturally he didn't dare to talk nonsense. And there was indeed something to help with at this time, so he bent over and briefly told him what he wanted to ask a few little ruffians to help him with.
"That's it?" The leading thug took another puff of the cigarette in his hand, looked at Qiao Xilin and asked.
Qiao Xilin: "It's just such a small matter, I think it must be a gesture for a few big brothers." As long as you can share half of the protection money I collected from that store after the deed is done. ”
"Half? Hmph, you really dare to ask for it. But forget it, half is half. It's just two women, it's not a problem. But if they call the police, you have to come out and testify to us! Otherwise, you'll have a good look! The leading thug looked at him with disdain after listening to what Qiao Xilin said.
Qiao Xilin still looked like a low-eyed 0 and pleasing 0 and said, "Don't worry, don't worry." It was indeed my shop. They will definitely not call the police, even if they do, as long as I come forward to explain the misunderstanding. A few big brothers just need to be down-to-earth and keep them wanting to protect the law. ”
Then the gangsters said a few words to Qiao Xilin,
Go straight to where you're talking about.
Qiao Xilin looked at the gangsters who walked towards the small shop run by Qiao Yixuan's mother and daughter, and snorted coldly in his heart: "Let you not give me money!" Lao Tzu's hands are very tight, since you don't want to obediently cooperate with a little bit of things, then carry it yourself! It's a pity that Lao Tzu has to lose half of the money and give it to those gangsters, Made..."
Qiao Yixuan's mother and daughter, who had just barely cleaned up the mess in the small store, suddenly saw a few people walking in from the outside again, and today because of Qiao Xilin's trouble, they have lost a lot. At this time, I naturally had to continue to meet with a smile and ask what to eat to make a living.
The leading thug looked at Qiao Yixuan's mother and scolded directly: "The businessman makes a sad face, who has an appetite for stepping on a horse." Lao Tzu didn't come here to eat, it's time to pay the protection fee! ”
Those little gangsters who followed behind, U read a book. As soon as the leader in front of him finished speaking, they took two steps forward left and right, and then took the sticks in their hands and slashed them at the bottles and cans of soy sauce and vinegar on the table.
Bang bang
A few sticks were pulled out, and the oil, sauce and vinegar were scattered everywhere. At this time, a few diners who happened to come over again were also frightened when they saw this, glanced sideways at the situation in the store, knew that something was wrong, and only muttered: "What kind of store is this, it's a mess, hurry up, hurry up, let's change it, don't have a meal, it's bad if you get into trouble..."
Seeing this, Qiao Yixuan knew that these diners would definitely not stay to eat, but at least she had to explain the situation of her own store, otherwise this small place would all depend on word of mouth. If today's events are all spread out, don't even think about doing the business of your own small shop anymore.
"Why are you still thinking about opening your doors? Didn't you hear what Lao Tzu just said? Protection fee! Pay the protection money first and then think about something else! ”
At this moment, the leading thug had already pulled a stool and sat at the table in the middle of the store, and he took out a switchblade in his hand at some point, and after speaking, he raised his hand and stabbed the switchblade fiercely on the flat table.
Sure enough, although Qiao Xilin is not a thing, after all, he understands the character of Qiao Yixuan's mother, and at this time, looking at the posture of a few gangsters in front of him, he finally chose to spend money to eliminate disasters and calm people.
"You, how much do you want to charge?"
As soon as the leading thug heard what Qiao Yixuan's mother said, he knew that there was a door. So he put a smile on his face that was still fierce and vicious, and said, "Not much, not much." Protection fees. The meaning is fine, I see that your store is not small, and the business must be good, so you can just take 128,000 yuan. ”'
