Chapter 1: The Black Seal
In early spring, the weather in the north is warm and cold. The sun is high in the sky, shining warmly on the people, the breeze is gently blowing, and the pedestrians on the road rub their hands slightly and stomp their feet. Dispels the chill of the breeze.
This is a small city in the north, ranking on the Nth line of the country. It can be said that it is one of the poorest cities in the country, a three-wheeled electric donkey walks the streets and alleys on the side of the road, and the electric donkey box is full of goods. The rider on the bicycle is holding his mobile phone and scanning the code one by one according to the phone left on the cargo box, yes, this is a courier brother. He wore a piece of work clothes from a certain world, which was a little dusty because of carrying goods, and a pair of jeans on his lower body, although not torn, should have been a little whitish from many washes. A pair of cheap sneakers on his feet, as dusty as his overalls. He is in his thirties, has a square face, and has big, bright eyes. According to his daughter-in-law, he has the best eyes and passed on to his daughter perfectly.
Li Feng, male, 31 years old, with a high bun line, the whole person looks like he is in his thirties, he used to open a small mom-and-pop shop with his daughter-in-law, took his daughter to school, and his parents are in his rural hometown, in addition to living expenses, he also has to repay loans every month. Life is like this, not extravagant, not romantic, but better than in reality, I thought that the days would go on like this, but some time ago because of force majeure shutdown, economic shutdown, although it has now resumed work, but although there are people on the street, there are very few people in the store, the savings of the year ago have been spent, the second half of the year to be born, no way but to find another part-time job, low education, no other work experience, ask people to say that they found a courier brother's errand, just such a thirty-year-old express "big brother" started work.
"What a demon and what a legend of beauty" "Hello, a certain world express, to the big iron gate at the door of the family home, please sign for it, you must sign for the VIP piece, I will wait for you." "Hey, I hope this beauty will hurry up, there are more than a hundred pieces," Li Feng thought. "Hello, a group of takeaways, here at the iron gate at the entrance of the family home, the family home is not allowed to enter. You go to the door to pick up the food, thank you" At this time, another takeaway brother came, and the two-wheeled electric donkey stopped directly at the door, calling customers.
"Didi" came to a certain horse car again, "Young man, move the electric car, I want to enter the family home" A certain horse driver stuck his head out of the car window and said to the takeaway brother, the driver is a little old. "Can't you get in?" the takeaway guy returned, his voice a little loud.
"I can't get in" a certain Jun driver.
"Can't you get in with such a wide door?"
"Bang" a certain horse driver got out of the car, "You are riding a car to block the door, and you are still so crazy.........."
"I asked you, can't you get in such a wide door...........
“......... If you scold again, you're a delivery man, what do you want to do?"
“......... I'm just a delivery person, what's the matter, ask you if you're going in? What do you want to do? ”
"Don't quarrel, young man, just move the car back and get off, you see that the courier usually comes and parks the car to the side, why did you stop at the door" At this time, the old man who watched the gate came over and said to the two people, looking at Li Feng as he spoke, "Lao Wang, you hurry up and drive the car in, how old you are and quarrel with Xiao Young." ”
"Hey, hey, don't fight."
Li Feng saw that the driver and the little brother were fighting, and hurriedly ran over, it's okay to quarrel, just exercise your lung capacity, but don't fight.
"Uncle, you are discouraged. Li Feng hurriedly grabbed the uncle, "You are so old and fight with him, don't you suffer" "Brother, you stop, uncle is so old, you don't have a heavy fist, can you draw a good one?" Li Feng pulled the uncle and said to the takeaway brother who was stopped by the doorman.
It can be seen that this little brother can still carry it clearly, otherwise a strong guy can let a doorman stop him?
"What are you arguing about, people who are dozens of years old are still fighting here, don't stop the two of you and let them fight. At this time, a middle-aged man came over, looked at it for more than ten seconds, and then said to Li Feng's group of people. "Half of the people who are in the ground, fighting at the gate of the family home, the front is the unit, shame on people, scattered. "Oh, this seems to be a leader, and he really has a hand at training people, so this uncle has stopped a little.
"It's scattered, what should you do, Lao Wang, you hurry in, you, ride the car away, and go outside to pick up the things. "Another one came over like a middle-level leader.
"No, let him show me. Lao Wang, a certain horse driver, struggled in Li Feng's arms and said, look, heh, I didn't notice a big bag in my eyes just now.
"You hurry up, Lao Wang, you two are going to make trouble outside, don't make trouble at the door, you can't afford to lose this person." The leader said.
"Hurry up, go outside, you go first. The middle-level leader said to the takeaway brother.
"Lao Wang, you drive the car to the side of the road. The middle-level leader said to Lao Wang.
Li Feng let go of Lao Wang, the takeaway brother rode away, Lao Wang drove into the yard, and Lao Wang, who had lost his head in the yard with "Hu .......", chased him out again.
At this time, Li Feng and other VIP customers also came down, signed, scanned the code, took pictures, and the handover was completed, and the customer left Li Feng should also leave, Li Feng puffed out his cheeks, it hurt, the two brothers were fighting just now, Li Feng took a beating when he persuaded him to fight, and he didn't know who beat him, unlucky. Lock the carriage of the three-wheeled electric donkey, hurry up and finish today's list, it is more than a hundred oceans, a few yuan of steamed buns on the road, and the daughter-in-law's meal should be ready when you return home.
"Wave in wave, wave in wave. Hello a certain world express, antique street, VIP pieces must be signed by you personally, good I am waiting for you. "Although the antique street in a small city is called an antique street, it is estimated that there are only three or four stores in it that are really related to antiques, and most of the others are calligraphy and paintings of modern well-known writers, such as the words of calligraphy lovers in a city, etc., it is difficult to find ancient paintings here.
In the past few days, there are few people on the street, and there is no one in the store, so the owner of the antique shop took out the things and put them at the corner of the street, spread a plastic bag on the ground, and started to open.
There are all kinds of things in the stall, old stone mirrors, single-pass telescopes, at this time, Li Feng picked up a small black seal and looked at it, the seal is not big, it is the size of the palm of a newborn child, it looks like a stone, the things engraved on the seal are a mess, nothing is like it, and there is no complete pattern at the bottom of the potholes.
"How much is this, boss" Li Feng asked the boss.
The "two thousand three" boss returned.
"It's too expensive, ten dollars, okay. Li Feng received.
"Look at your brother's face is quite honest, and the counteroffer is too ruthless. In the past few days, the price is only this when I set up a stall outside, and the store will sell for 5,000 yuan a year ago, and if I sincerely want to give 2,000 yuan, I will collect it from a farmer near the Fusu Tomb in the next county. The price charged is much higher than the price you offered. ”
When Li Feng heard this, he continued to cut, "Even if the price of this thing is not too high, you can be cheaper, take it back and use it as a toy for the baby, and carve it to play, fifteen yuan is enough." ”
"Brother, business is not good these days, you can't let my brother lose all the money, one thousand eight, I have to make some money." "The owner returned.
"This thing can be smashed walnuts in addition to being a toy, your brother asked me to spend more than a thousand to buy a hammer that can only smash walnuts, fifty yuan, your brother will do it if he wants, if he doesn't want me, I'll wait here for a while, and when people come, they will leave, so I won't disturb Brother Ning to do business." Li Feng returned.
"What this brother said, this is a baby, how can you smash walnuts, so eight hundred and eighty-eight, eight hundred and eighty-eight, how about it. "The owner returned.
"It's still a baby, brother, you can fool me hard, the table legs are too idle, you continue to set up a stall to sell the baby, to be honest, I make money with this eight cents, if it weren't for the baby saying that I need a stone carved to play, fifty yuan is too much. Li Feng said.
"What about the couriers. At this moment, the customer who picked up the parcel came down and stood in front of the three-wheeled e-donkey and shouted.
"It's coming," Li Feng responded, "My customer will leave first, brother, you're busy." Li Feng turned his head and said to the old brother who set up the stall.
"Wait a minute, this is ........" Li Feng had already walked away when the elder brother continued.
Back to the express car, sign and scan the code to take pictures, send away the customer, and the eight cents arrived, Li Feng rode the electric donkey and prepared to continue the next order.
"Wait for the brothers, fifty is fifty, even if you are a friend, take this thing for fifty yuan. ”
Li Feng parked, walked to the stall, picked up the small seal, and scanned the QR code in front of the stall for fifty yuan. did not continue to bargain, what he said, and the water that was spilled, which was the consistent insistence of Li Feng, a small citizen. I didn't ask the boss to pack it, so I put it in my pocket and gave it to my daughter when I went back, so there was no need to be so troublesome.
After saying hello to the boss, Li Feng rode the car and continued to work, and when he arrived at the T-shaped intersection, Li Feng went straight, without waiting for the traffic light, and went straight along the side road, when he saw a four- or five-year-old girl standing on the sidewalk crying, and the cars were coming and going.
"Who's this adult, it's really careless. Li Feng muttered and got out of the car, picked up the little girl and walked to the side of the road.
"Little girl, your mother. Li Feng asked the little girl as he walked.
"Mom.... Mother... Forehead..... , go to work, Dad..... Father..... Forehead...... By the phone... Forehead.... Took away...... Uh...."The little girl said as she cried.
Just after the little girl finished speaking, Li Feng also hugged the little girl and walked to the straight road, because it was a T-shaped intersection The green light on the straight road was always on, at this time a luxury car drove over without the slightest intention of slowing down, Li Feng was listening to the little girl, and when he saw it, it was too late to hide, so he could only throw the little girl and fly up.
"Dude, how fast you drive in broad daylight. You won't be drinking. This was Li Feng's last thought.
It's just that no one saw it, when Li Feng's blood flowed near his jacket pocket, it was inexplicably less, and the small black mark in the pocket flashed slightly and disappeared.
