Chapter 09: Gangsters and Landlords
The guys Li Yuan met were all well-known gangsters in urban villages. The yellow-haired man at the head is called Han Bing, who is a few years older than Li Yuan. The other few are his fox friends and dogs, and Li Yuan has also known each other since childhood.
These people also lived in urban villages, but none of them had stable jobs, and they usually did stealing chickens and dogs and extortion. Most of the people in the urban villages hate them, but they can't do anything about them, and sometimes they have to be bullied.
In Li Yuan's memory, he has not been angry with these people since he was a child. When I was young, I was often beaten by this gang, and when I was older, I was extorted a lot of money by them, and in short, I suffered from this gang of people.
Although Li Yuan has always wanted to resist, because he has been weak and sick since he was a child, confronting him head-on is simply asking for hardship. Although they occasionally come up with some "conspiracies" to retaliate against each other, they still suffer a lot in general, so they don't hate these people, but they are also extremely disgusted.
A few years ago, the boss of Han Bing and others was sentenced for picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and they also stopped for a while. However, recently, he has relapsed into his old ways, and he often appears on Guanqian Street at night, and he has begun to collect "management fees" from those vendors.
Li Yuan didn't expect that he would meet Han Bing and them in a narrow way at the door of his home, and he was also seen by the other party. He knew that it was too late to run away at this time, and if he did that, he would definitely be retaliated against by these gangsters in the future.
However, Han Bing's call to Li Yuan will not do anything good, he must just want to squeeze some oil and water from him. If Li Yuan didn't run, the money he had just earned from selling tomatoes would be difficult to secure.
Li Yuan, who was in a dilemma, had an idea, and hurriedly squatted next to the tricycle, fiddling with the pedals while saying loudly: "Oh, this broken car is broken again!" ”
Li Yuan pretended to be repairing the car, but in fact, taking advantage of the opportunity when the other party's vision was blocked by the tricycle, he quietly stuffed most of the money under the wooden planks of the car body, and only left more than a hundred yuan in his pocket.
There is also a reason why Li Yuan did this. If Han Bing and the others found that he didn't have a penny in his pocket, they would have to beat him a few times to get angry. And if Han Bing and the others didn't return empty-handed, Li Yuan naturally wouldn't have to suffer from flesh and skin. These are all experiences that Li Yuan has gained over the years, and they may sound ordinary, but they are actually all experiences exchanged for blood and tears.
As soon as Li Yuan, who was pretending, hid the money, Han Bing took his fox friend to the tricycle. He raised his leg and kicked the tricycle, scolding and scolding: "What a broken car, throw it away!" ”
"You can't throw it away, I borrowed this car, and I threw it to accompany me." Li Yuan stood up from the back of the car and reluctantly smiled at Han Bing and the others: "What's the matter with me?" ”
Han Bing said with a ruffian face: "Of course there is something wrong with the brothers calling you!" Brother Jun is coming out recently, and we have to give him a good pick up to get rid of bad luck, but ...... Money has been tight lately. ”
Speaking of this, Han Bing tilted his head and glanced at Li Yuan, and then sneered: "Look at your spring breeze, you have been mixing well recently, right?" Take out all the money you have, and let the brothers help you spend it together! ”
Han Bing has said the same thing to Li Yuan many times, for so many years, these guys have always been this virtue, and they have not grown at all.
And Li Yuan's method of dealing with it has not changed, and he said with a sad face: "Brother Bing, you know my situation, where is there any money left, you are quiet, and the whole body is more than 100 yuan......
Li Yuan said as he took out the change that he deliberately left in his pocket, and was immediately snatched by Han Bing. He quickly counted the zero votes in his hand, his face became ugly, and he looked up at Li Yuan and said, "It's only more than a hundred?" What about you sending Hanako? ”
"It's been inconvenient to have money lately, and these are all my possessions!" Li Yuan simply turned all his pockets over and showed them to Han Bing, saying that he was not lying.
In the summer, he wore little clothes, and Li Yuan had a total of three pockets on his body. Han Bing and the others could easily see that he really had no money on him.
Since Li Yuan had no oil and water to squeeze on him, Han Bing and the others didn't bother to spend more effort on him. Several people scolded and expressed their contempt for Li Yuan, a "poor ghost", and left with the money they had just gotten from him.
If it was a few days ago, more than a hundred yuan would have made Li Yuan feel distressed for a few days. But now there is a shadow of a broad road in front of him, and this more than 100 yuan is nothing.
However, this does not mean that Li Yuan didn't take this seriously, don't look at him on the surface He seems to be very calm, but in fact, his heart is full of disgust for these gangsters.
Looking at the back of Han Bing and the others leaving, the smirk on Li Yuan's face gradually disappeared, and he muttered coldly: "Dude has endured it for so many years, sooner or later I will have to settle accounts with you one day!" ”
In the past, if Li Yuan wanted to teach Han Bing and the others a lesson, he had to think of a way to do it secretly. And even so, they can only punish this group of people slightly, and there is no way to take a good breath of evil in their hearts, and they must be careful not to be discovered by these guys. And now that Li Yuan has a magical peach pit, he is much more confident than before.
Li Yuan knew that Han Bing and the others were invincible in urban villages, but if they were really put into society, they were just insignificant small roles. When Li Yuan relied on the peach core to make a lot of money and have a social status, it was just a gesture to deal with these people.
Li Yuan has already thought about it, and when the time comes, he must take care of this group of people. Not only to vent a bad breath for themselves, but also to avenge other neighbors who were bullied by them.
However, for Li Yuan, it is not time to take revenge on Han Bing and the others, but to go back first to see how the ginseng planted yesterday is growing.
Putting the money hidden in the tricycle into his pocket, Li Yuan first returned the car to his neighbor Uncle Wang, and then walked home unhurriedly. When he was still some distance from home, he saw a man standing in the doorway.
Seeing this person, Li Yuan's brows furrowed again, and he couldn't help but whisper: "What kind of day is today, how can I meet these nasty guys!" ”
Standing at the door of Li Yuan's house was his landlord and Wu Hua's father, Wu Jinlong. If you want Li Yuan to make a ranking and say the person he most unwilling to see in this urban village, Wu Jinlong is second only to Han Bing and others, and he also belongs to the type of person that Li Yuan hates the most.
Wu Jinlong is in his fifties, with a beer belly and few hairs on the top of his head, so he relies on combing the hair on one side to cover the bare top of his head. In Li Yuan's words, this is called "local support to the central government".
However, this hairstyle is okay in normal times, but it will be a little troublesome in windy weather. And today happened to be very windy, so Li Yuan could see the long hair on the side of Wu Jinlong's head messy in the wind.
Wu Jinlong also saw Li Yuan, so he didn't care about his fluttering hair, and greeted him loudly: "Xiao Li, it's a coincidence that you came back, I happened to have something to look for you, come, come on!" ”
