Chapter 9 Borrowing Money
I would like to thank the alliance leader jly69 and the hall master for their generous rewards from the old book "Daozang America", and for their generous support when the demi-immortals are most in dire need of help. I also thank the old brothers and new brothers for their tips, recommendations, collections and support, and the half-immortal bowed!
"Take that **** with you." Outside the door, the voices of the three people chasing after them were heard.
After a while, I heard a faint woman's voice, a little sad. Qiu Fengyu thought about it, opened the door a crack, and saw that there were a few more people outside, a total of five people in black, don't beat David? Birkin, and the woman was a man pulling his hair and dragging him down the street.
Seeing Qiu Fengyu open the door, suddenly a guy turned his face and looked over, and nodded his finger at Qiu Fengyu. Qiu Fengyu recognized it, this guy was the unlucky guy who tripped over him and fell to the ground.
Seeing Qiu Fengyu open the door, the woman shouted loudly here: "Help-" As soon as she shouted, she was slapped and dizzy. The sound stopped abruptly.
"Shut your stinky mouth, ****, I'll clean you up." A bald man, wearing a black vest, showing strong muscles, tattoos on his arms, looking fierce, his English is really not very good, and he has a pronounced accent.
It was Saoirse's voice, and by the light of the street, Qiu Fengyu also recognized her. But he pursed his lips and did not make a sound, but closed the door.
What happened outside the door, Qiu Fengyu didn't know, he planned to call the police, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it. He really didn't want to care about it. A hooligan, a J woman, it should be a common thing for them to be beaten.
But I didn't sleep well all night. To be honest, his mind was a little messy, and he had a good impression of Saoirse. This girl is actually quite kind, and it shouldn't be her intention to be a J girl. As for that David? Berzin, on the other hand, said he didn't know anything about it, so he didn't want to care.
When I got up the next day, it was already ten o'clock, and I said that I was going to open today, is this considered to be a state of entry? After thinking about it, I still put the written note at the door.
"Only twenty bowls a day, $20 each, first come, first served."
What the hell is this? Passers-by looked at the note in amazement, and the writing was large, like a signboard. Qiu Fengyu just found a note and pasted it on the wall at the door.
There was no one in the cold. But it's only ten o'clock now, so I'll make something to eat first. It's still a bowl of noodles. After eating the hula, he heard the siren honking twice, and a police car stopped by the door, and Ke Fen got out of the car and walked towards Qiu Fengyu.
"I'll look for you to investigate!" Officer Ke Fen said to Qiu Fengyu.
"You're talking about last night's fight? I didn't participate! Qiu Fengyu hurriedly raised his hand to show that he was innocent.
"I know." Officer Ke Fen walked up to Qiu Fengyu's side and looked inside, "No guests yet?" Belch...... What are you posting here? You're not going to do that, are you? Twenty dollars a bowl, a bit expensive, and you only sell twenty bowls, how much money can you make? ”
"Are you bad at math? Twenty dollars a bowl, twenty bowls a day, that's four hundred dollars, a month is $12,000, a year is $120,000...... How much tax do I have to pay? Qiu Fengyu suddenly remembered an important question.
"It's time for you to study math." Ke Fen laughed at Qiu Fengyu's calculations, and clapped his hands, "Okay, just be yourself, don't trouble me, goodbye, Mr. Qiu." He turned around and was about to leave.
Qiu Fengyu thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Uh...... May I ask a question? ”
"What?" Ke Fen turned his head and looked at Qiu Fengyu, "Ask." ”
"That...... Is Saoirse okay? I saw her beaten up last night! Qiu Fengyu looked at Ke Fen's face.
"Her face was terrible, a little swollen, and her mouth was broken...... To rest for at least a few days, as for David? Berzin ...... He still doesn't know where he is, and God knows what will happen. How many times did I tell him not to provoke those Russian bastards, he just didn't listen...... But this time, it's not his fault......" Ke Fen said this, suddenly stopped, and looked at Qiu Fengyu suspiciously, "You'd better settle down a little, just like your cousin last night, don't mix everything in." ”
"I know, the police don't care about them?" Qiu Fengyu still asked.
"Am I not asking you about it?" Ke Fen said to Qiu Fengyu dissatisfied, "Someone from the city police station took over this case, so ...... This doesn't have much to do with us, and the reason why I asked was to find more clues to see if I could find David earlier. ”
Qiu Fengyu hesitated for a moment, and then said, "What if...... I mean, if you find it, can you tell me? ”
Kefen shrugged his shoulders: "Of course, but ...... Don't get into trouble. Then he left.
At eleven o'clock, the first customers came, Britt with his wife and his neighbors and friends, not even the children were pulled down, but this time there were three more people, and thirteen bowls of noodles were sold at once.
"Come to my house tomorrow and we'll have dinner together." Britt extended an invitation to Qiu Fengyu.
"If it's another day, it should be fine!" Qiu Fengyu replied without thinking about it.
As she was talking, several people walked in outside the door, it was Ke Fen and several of her colleagues, including the two male police officers I saw last time, and two female police officers I saw at the police station, one of whom was very fat.
"A bowl of noodles per person." Ke Fen didn't talk nonsense, and sat in two booth positions with a few colleagues.
Qiu Fengyu brought noodles, which were indeed very fragrant, and in order to take care of these people, he also deliberately paid for the fork. Sure enough, they were not used to chopsticks, so they all started to use forks.
The taste is indeed very good, Qiu Fengyu has a talent in this area, no matter what it is, in his hands, it can be made delicious. The men, including Cofen, licked the bowl clean.
"One more bowl!" The fat policewoman beckoned to Qiu Fengyu.
"You can only buy one bowl per person!" Qiu Fengyu refused.
The fat policewoman was stunned, and then looked at Ke Fen, Ke Fen shrugged her shoulders at her, and spread her hands helplessly, saying that she had no choice, this was Qiu Fengyu's territory, and he was in charge.
After waiting for the two groups of people to leave, Qiu Fengyu packed up and sold nineteen bowls of noodles, and one bowl should be sold to twenty bowls. After a few minutes, the town's watchmaker came over and asked for a bowl of noodles.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Breslin, it's sold out, only twenty copies a day!" Qiu Fengyu was a little embarrassed and pointed to the note pasted outside.
A watchmaker called Ray? Breslin is a somewhat eccentric middle-aged man, with a slender body that sometimes makes people worry about whether it will be blown by the wind and break in the middle.
"Well, so be it!" Breslin said, "You...... You can go to my watch shop and have a look, I have a watch for you to wear...... Let's be honest...... My business there is not very good, if I can, I will exchange my watch for your noodles, and a watch for your twenty bowls of noodles......"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Breslin, I don't need a watch for the time being, it's enough for me to have a mobile phone, and it's also convenient to see the time......" Qiu Fengyu's words were stupid, in Breslin's opinion, who uses a mobile phone to see the time here?
No matter how advanced technology is, every man should have a watch. Breslin must have come over to eat noodles when he saw that Qiu Fengyu didn't have a watch, and by the way he promoted his business.
Mr. Breslin left somewhat disappointed. Qiu Fengyu moved a chair and sat at the door, looking at the people passing by, and he also left a bowl of noodles. Saoirse said yesterday that she would come over for noodles.
Wait a little longer, Qiu Fengyu took out his mobile phone and looked at the time, in the sun, the screen was a little dazzling, maybe he should really do this business with the clockmaker, and exchange twenty bowls of noodles for his watch. Qiu Fengyu waited and thought blindly.
Several people came halfway and asked if there was a meeting, but Qiu Fengyu refused. Obviously, Qiu Fengyu's noodles are already well-known in the town. Those who didn't eat it were a little regretful.
Slowly, the sun also set, and the afterglow still made the town a little bright, Qiu Fengyu looked at the sky, and it was estimated that there would be half an hour, and it would be dark. He thought about it for a moment and thought that Saoirse might not come, so he planned to close the door and go to the bar for a while, have a few drinks, and then go to bed.
The afterglow of the sun was gone, and the town was finally slowly immersed in darkness, and just as Qiu Fengyu was about to close the door, a girl in a denim shirt and pants suddenly came in a hurry.
"I want a bowl of noodles!" The girl sat on the booth, the store was already brightly lit, but there was only one customer, the girl, she looked at Qiu Fengyu, and then lowered her head.
"I thought you weren't coming!" Qiu Fengyu walked over, stretched out his fingers, held up her chin, and raised her head, her face was really beaten badly, both eye sockets were black, the corners of her mouth were really broken, and one side of her face was still a little swollen.
"I ...... I don't want more people to know I'm like this anymore! Saoirse looked at Qiu Fengyu with some pity.
With a "snap", Qiu Fengyu put a bowl of noodles in front of Saoirse, and the noodle soup spilled a little. Saoirse smiled at the sight of the noodles, then picked up her fork and buried her head in it. A large bowl of noodles can be eaten in a few minutes. There's also a bit of unfinished meaning.
"It's delicious." Saoirse smiled at Qiu Fengyu.
"You seem like you've been hungry for days!" Qiu Fengyu sat opposite her, didn't put away the dishes and chopsticks, and looked at her face.
"I haven't eaten since last night, but today I'm a little better, and my mouth can eat." Saoirse said cautiously, "I may not be able to stay any longer, I have caused David?" Birkin, I hurt him, I don't know if he's dead or alive, my God, I'm ...... I need a lot of money, $20,000 to ransom him back. ”
When Qiu Fengyu heard this, he stood up and went to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, usually at this time, he didn't want to listen. Because after listening to it, you will make yourself sympathetic, and by the way, let yourself go bankrupt, or do something impulsive.
Seeing Qiu Fengyu get up and leave, Saoirse couldn't help crying sadly.
Qiu Fengyu finished washing the dishes and came out to see that the girl was still crying on the table, so he ignored her and walked to the attic, ready to sleep, and when he encountered this terrible thing, he didn't even want to go to the bar.
But I couldn't sleep. He tossed and turned, probably because the cries in the store were annoying. So he had to go downstairs, looked at Saoirse and said, "Are you going to sleep here?" I'm closing, you're the last customer, if it's okay, let's go......"
Saoirse lifted her teary glasses, which were still red and swollen, and looked wolf and bad. Wiped it, stood up and prepared to leave.
When she reached the door, she suddenly heard a voice: "I can only lend you $10,000, and I must pay it back within a month." Add $2,000 in interest. ”
This is considered usury.
"Really? Oh, my God...... Thank you, you're such a nice guy, I don't know...... I don't know what to say. Saoirse suddenly turned around, cried and laughed at Qiu Fengyu, and spewed a bubble of snot.
