() At night, although there is no moonlight and there are not many stars to be seen, the places where the military training is lit up are lit up, and the surroundings of the cāo field are clearly illuminated.

"Rest in place for five minutes!"

As soon as the instructor's words fell, the group of people who were still standing there in a military posture just now sat on the ground like soft mud.

"Smack!"

The sound of slapping mosquitoes sounded.

"Oh, my god and Buddha uncle!" A student in the same dormitory as Jiao Wei looked at the blood stains on his palms and the corpses of mosquitoes, and exclaimed, "Is it easy for me to raise such a little blood!" That's it, and I won't let it go! ”

"Don't be disrespectful to the Buddha and his old man." Jiao Wei's other roommate said.

"The Buddha was merciful, just when I farted just now."

“…… You just let it go, don't think I don't know if it's so loud. ”

"Do you want to be a Buddha?" Jiao Wei asked the other roommate with a smile.

"I don't want to, how tired the Buddha is, and I still want to purify all sentient beings, I just need to graduate successfully, find a job, find a wife, have a child, and live this ordinary and long life."

The previous roommate was silent for a while, and said, "I still don't participate in such a high-end topic, hey, didn't you say that eating vitamin B1 can prevent mosquito bites?" Ate it for Mao Laozi or was it tricked? ”

"It varies from person to person."

"It's better to go back and sprinkle the toilet water."

In the place of military training at night, the smell of various mosquitoes and insects such as flower dew water, wind oil jīng, and mosquito bites are intertwined, but the mosquitoes that grow in Chuhua University are always not afraid of death.

……

At half past nine in the evening, at the end of the day's military training, Jiao Wei did not go back to the dormitory with his roommates, but walked to the school gate. He would go to his small restaurant every night and help organize some things until it closed. When I go back to the dormitory, I also bring some supper for the dormitory people.

Today. When Jiao Wei came to his small restaurant, although it was still a little far away, he also saw some people sitting inside.

Usually there are no more people at this time, but what's going on today?

When Jiao Wei walked quickly to the door of the small restaurant, the people inside also walked out.

Among these people, the one who took the lead had a cigarette in his mouth and yellow hair, and he looked a little hanging.

Jiao Wei sighed in his heart, and he stopped paying attention to those people. Hurriedly ran into the store, and saw that his parents were fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?" Jiao Wei asked, "Are those people here to find fault?" ”

Jiao Wei once heard that some shop owners saw that other stores were doing well. will hire people to find fault, so it is more urgent.

"It's okay, don't worry." Jiao Wei's father waved his hand.

No matter how Jiao Wei asked, his parents just didn't say anything, and the next day he found the fellow who was hired to help alone to figure things out.

Yesterday evening, the rush hour passed. The number of people who came to the restaurant gradually decreased, and then a few people who didn't look easy to mess with came in, saying that they were asking them to pay "sanitation fees".

But Jiao Wei's family has already paid the health fee, and there is still a payment slip. Obviously, in that case, the term "sanitation fee" has a different meaning.

Whether it's "sanitation fee" or "management fee", and so on. In some cases, it means "protection money".

When I used to be in a small county town. Jiao Wei's shop is a little more formal, but this kind of fee has also been paid, but Jiao Wei doesn't know it.

Therefore, Jiao Wei was very angry after figuring out the reason for the matter, and when he went to his parents, he said that if he couldn't do it, he would report it.

Jiao Wei's father was relatively calm, and he smiled and made a few small jokes, and then told Jiao Wei about the stakes.

In fact, those who do business around here, whether it is a small shop, or those students who set up stalls and night markets, have encountered this kind of thing. He asked the surrounding shops to see how much they paid, knowing that his store paid more, and he was not too angry, after all, his family was a newcomer, or a foreigner, it didn't matter, there was no background, after talking, he paid for a month.

When they were about to open a store here, Jiao Wei's parents were actually mentally prepared, but they didn't expect it to come so quickly. The two who used to be honest people have stumbled and pondered some experience in the first two years of coming out to do business. Now, now that Jiao Wei has pierced this layer of paper, the two of them will also tell Jiao Wei about some of their experiences.

Originally, the two of them thought that their children's future jobs would definitely be like those senior white-collar workers on TV, and they didn't have to face those who found fault and collected protection fees, but no matter which position they were in, there were potential rules, and it was okay if you were strong, if you were just an ordinary person, you should follow the rules.

After listening to his parents talk about those experiences, Jiao Wei felt quite bad in his heart, he was not stupid, he knew that this was a fact, but after all, he was a young man, after all, he still had a lot of enthusiasm, and when he hadn't calmed down to study before, he had also fought, and he had quarreled with the teacher and lifted the table, Jiao Wei couldn't be sure if he would go up and fight with them if he saw those people again.

After lunch in the afternoon, Jiao Wei sat at the door of the small restaurant, helping to peel potatoes. The store is full of people, so it's not inside, and the outside is more breathable. Although his parents pulled him and didn't let him fix it, Jiao Wei was stubborn and not afraid of being laughed at, what happened to helping the family peel potatoes? Who said that college students can't peel potatoes? I didn't do anything unseemly.

While I was sharpening, the owner of the next door shop came over.

The shop next door mainly sells pasta and is owned by a young couple. During this time, the two families were familiar with each other, and the owner of the store next door also knew Jiao Wei.

"I heard that your store was populated last night?" The boss said.

Yesterday, there was something in the pasta shop next door, and it was only open for half a day in the morning, and the boss of Jiao Wei's shop still listened to the people around him.

"Hmm." Jiao Wei responded, he didn't really want to mention this topic, and the force of peeling potatoes in his hands was much greater.

The boss smiled, "Don't be unconvinced, in fact, everyone is the same, so is our family, I just graduated at that time, I don't know much about the rules here, and I wanted to call to report that jǐng was coming, but I was stopped by my daughter-in-law, and with the attitude of calming things, I handed over some first." Later, I found someone, but I didn't run into them again. ”

Seeing that Jiao Wei was silent, but the action of peeling potatoes was much slower. Knowing that he was listening, the boss pointed to a hot pot restaurant opposite: "When his house first opened, business was very hot, and then for a while, a dozen or so gangsters went to the store every day to eat, and at first they paid for it, and then they gradually began to find faults, and finally directly said how much it cost." The boss was not a soft one, and although he asked those people to go the next day, he found someone in the evening. As a result, the next day, none of the thugs came, and they did not show up at his shop again.

There is also the one who sells rice bowls, and when he encounters this kind of thing, he directly calls a group of people and prepares to do a big job. Later, he was dispersed by Jǐngcha. But the thugs never looked for him again. Gangsters are also bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, if they knew that you were a hard stubble, they wouldn't come, and if they couldn't talk to them about the number of etiquette, they would be ruthless directly, and now this society is like this, you have to be ruthless. At that time, there were also many people who deliberately wore shirtless tattoos. There were also various steel pipe tools and so on on the car, and in the end it didn't end like that.

There used to be a period of hard crackdown, and those people disappeared for a long time, and now they are gradually reappearing. However, in the past, there were mostly minions and gangsters, but now these have emerged so quickly, and it is estimated that they are not easy to tidy. If you know someone in charge of this area, the jǐng cha or the joint defense team. It's okay to go over and walk around, and it's still a must to spend some money on this. After all, everyone wants to do business well.

There are also some shops around that have not been targeted, even if the owners of those shops are not locals, but they have stayed here for many years, and they have some connections, so I don't know if they have gone other ways. As for those like yours, you can first go to explore the wind, ask the nearby shops, find out who is in charge of this, and then go to the top of the mountain, if someone takes care of you, of course, it will be fine, if this does not work, try to find other ways. Everything is difficult at the beginning, just get through it, if you really have no way, just hand it in, be on time, otherwise it will be you who will suffer. We came out to seek wealth, not anger, but the situation is stronger than people, and you don't know when the next strike hard will be, so ......"

The boss didn't finish the rest of the story, his daughter-in-law called him, answered and hurried back.

Jiao Wei was still sitting there, peeling potatoes somewhat absentmindedly.

"Sounds so hot."

The sudden sound next to him startled Jiao Wei, and he went behind him to see Su Qu standing there eating with a bowl of rice.

"Senior Su, why don't you go to the store to sit and eat?" Jiao Wei said.

Because of Jiao's father, Su Qu and Yi Xin both knew Jiao Wei, and sometimes after dinner, they would come to visit his store when they left school.

"It's okay, there are a lot of people over there, come out to call for breath, I didn't expect to hear those words just now. The boss didn't say it, I really didn't know there was such a thing, I had classmates set up stalls before and I hadn't heard them talk about it, I don't know if I didn't encounter it or they didn't want to say it. Su Qu said slurred while picking up the rice in his mouth, "But I don't think the well-mixed community needs to survive in this way, those people are probably small people, you really don't need to give them face, if you find someone to fight at that time, count me as a share." ”

Su Qu's big man is indeed quite oppressive, but Jiao Wei will not really use that extreme way, he can't afford to gamble, his parents are here, he is still old, Jiao Wei doesn't want them to have any accidents, even if they win, what guarantee can they have?

"Senior Su, do you recognize him...... People in this area? Jiao Wei didn't know how to describe it.

Su Qu understood what he meant, but he hadn't been here for long, and most of the time he lived in the laboratory, dormitory, and cafeteria, and this was the first time he had heard of this kind of thing.

"I know my boss." Su Qu said helplessly.

Jiao Wei shook his head, "Don't bother Uncle Mingsheng, he has already helped us a lot, and he has two children at home." ”

"Hmm......" Su Qu wiped his mouth, and then his eyes lit up, "Do you know that person named Wei Ling?" ”

"I know, but I'm not familiar with it, I came here before opening the store, and then I hurriedly ordered a takeout and left, can he?"

"I heard what my senior brother said, you can try."

"However, if you want to find Wei Ling, you must go to Uncle Mingsheng, this ......"

"I'm just going to tell you what I know, it's up to you whether you believe it or not."

"Hmm."

Su Qu threw the empty lunch box into the garbage basket and said, "If you really want to ask Wei Ling for help, you don't have to go through my boss's line. ”

"What do you mean?"

"My boss's cat!"

Jiao Wei: "......"
