Chapter 125: Hold on to your turf

…… Li Jie, who was still asleep in the morning, was woken up by the ringing of the phone. After hurriedly reaching out and grabbing the phone and pressing the answer button, he broke free from Jing Ruohan's embrace lightly.

As soon as I put the phone to my ear, I heard Zhang Liang's voice coming from it: "Brother, are you at home?" I wanted to come and talk to you. ”

Surprised, Li Jie replied, "I'm at home." Can I help you? ”

"I'll talk about it later." Zhang Liang hung up the phone in a heavy tone.

After closing the door with his backhand, Li Jie turned his head and suddenly saw a statue-like Wang Rongqin in the center of the living room.

Li Jie's face turned red and tightened his coat: "When did you come?" ”

"Last night...... Seeing that you were busy, I didn't bother. Wang Rongqin's flat tone made Li Jie even more embarrassed.

I came here last night, didn't I hear everything?

Li Jiewu calmly pretended that nothing had happened, sat on the sofa and looked at Wang Rongqin and asked, "Are you done with everything you do?" ”

"It's coming. The rest of the space-time nodes have not yet happened. Wang Rongqin took out the super-tech electronic light screen from the unknown space behind him and handed it to Li Jie.

"According to the Commander's instructions, there are still a few days to reach an important space-time node. It takes a prophet to go there yourself. ”

Li Jie slid the screen up and down with his fingers, and saw that there were many fewer dense notes, and he heard the explanation that as long as they were solved, they would no longer be displayed. Under the latter's guidance, Li Jie froze on a long note.

After observing for a long time, Li Jie returned the electronic light screen to the other party. Reaching out to pull out a cigarette, he found that the cigarette case was empty.

Then he got up and said, "You wait for me, I'll buy a pack of cigarettes." Oh, by the way, Zhang Liang is coming over soon. ”

Wang Rongqin's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said nervously: "Is the commander coming?" Do I need to recuse myself? ”

"No, he's already seen you." Li Jie smiled and reminded, "Don't be so nervous. Hasn't Zhang Liang become a commander yet? ”

When passing by, Li Jie, who was kind and relieved, patted Wang Rongqin on the shoulder, pushed open the door and went down the corridor.

Li Jie, who came back from buying cigarettes at the gate of the community, unexpectedly heard the sound of adults scolding and children crying from a store.

The curious Li Jie stretched out his head to look and saw that the shopkeeper was hitting the child's leg with a thick wooden stick, and every time it was a loud empty sound, and the little boy, who was only seven or eight years old, was already rolling on the ground in pain and fright.

Li Jie, who was frowning, hurriedly shouted loudly towards the store: "Adults, don't beat children like this!" Such a young child can't withstand such heavy hands! ”

"I'll beat my own kids, and I'll you!" The shopkeeper glared back at Li Jie, and the wooden stick in his hand did not relax at all.

Li Jie, who was stunned, didn't want to argue with him, but looking at the child's pitiful little face, the sentimentality in his heart arose. A few steps rushed into the store, snatching the wooden stick in his hand.

"Don't meddle with things!" The shopkeeper viciously wanted to regain the wooden stick, but was pushed by Li Jie and sat in the corner.

After helping the child up, looking at his bruised young body, Li Jie glared at his father angrily and shouted, "What kind of ability are you? Don't sprinkle it on your child! People like you don't deserve to be fathers at all! ”

Growing up in an orphanage without knowing his parents since he was a child, Li Jie has always longed to be reunited with his family one day. Now seeing a child who has a father but is beaten and scolded like this, Li Jie seems to see his own shadow from the innocent child.

At this time, it happened that a clothing store not far from the door was robbed, and the clerk rushed out of the door and anxiously shouted: "Robbery! Catch him! ”

Several of the Dragon Club juniors who were wandering around heard the shouts, and one by one they pounced like hungry tigers, kicking the robber to the ground with a few kicks. At the same time, as if he couldn't stop, his fists and feet continued to hit the man on the ground who was hugging and screaming.

After the clerk came to inspect the purse and mobile phone, he thanked the younger brothers of the Dragon Club. Then someone had already arranged for the robbers to be taken to the police station.

A group of Dragon Club brothers who had just completed the "task" walked to the front of the cigarette hotel with a smile, and saw Li Jie and the boss in the store glaring angrily.

…… The shopkeeper felt that in the blink of an eye, Li Jie's back was suddenly full of people, and the group of strong men with big shoulders and round waists were still staring at him with fierce fists.

"Horse, Brother Ma. What are you doing here? The shopkeeper recognized one of them and asked in amazement.

Brother Ma, who was called, glared at him, and said to Li Jie extremely respectfully: "Brother Li, is there any trouble?" As long as you say a word, we will do the little things! ”

"It's okay, you don't have to meddle." Li Jie didn't want to make a big deal and waved his hand. There was a younger brother next to him who brought a chair and asked Li Jie to sit down.

The shopkeeper's face was like a frosted eggplant at this time, and he looked at Li Jie in panic. "Big brother, I didn't know you were from the Dragon Society. I didn't mean to offend......"

"He's the eldest brother of our Dragon Club, you can see it clearly for me!" Brother Ma roared, making the shopkeeper tremble unconsciously.

"Yes, yes, I'm dog-eyed." The small shopkeeper had a bitter face, how could he have thought that a person who walked into the store casually would be the boss of the Dragon Club who now dominates Shuiyun City.

Li Jie turned his head and glared at Brother Ma in displeasure and said, "There are children here." Don't be so loud! ”

"Oh, yes." Brother Ma suddenly smiled and repeated in an extremely gentle tone: "You recognize me clearly." This is the big brother of our Dragon Club. ”

Li Jie shook his head, laughing at himself, estimating that he would not be able to get rid of this title anywhere in the future. After smiling, he looked at the shopkeeper and said, "I'm not looking for trouble." It's just that if you hit a child like this, something will happen sooner or later. In case of a three-long and two-short one, this child is your own flesh and blood, don't you feel distressed? No matter what mistakes are made by such a young child, they can be educated well. ”

The shopkeeper pointed to the child aggrievedly and explained: "This little rabbit cub was playing in the store the day before yesterday and smashed the God of Wealth in my store. This God of Wealth statue has been fallen, and we who do business will be unlucky if we don't follow it...... No, today there is a big customer who has been ordering for a long time and said that the things in our store are not clean, and he will not patronize them in the future. Big brother, do you think I should be angry? ”

"No!" Li Jie glared at him: "Just this little thing? How can you blame the child for your failure in business? Since there are customers who say that your goods are not good, you should find your own reasons and should not shift the blame to innocent people. ”

"My cargo is definitely fine. It's all to blame for him smashing the idol and colliding with the bad luck that the God of Wealth had just incurred. The shopkeeper was still arguing unconvinced.

Brother Ma clenched his fists and said fiercely: "Big brother speaks, listen to me!" If you find the reason for yourself, find the reason for yourself! ”

The owner of the small shop didn't want to suffer the loss in front of him, so he said with a sigh: "I won't fight today, okay?" How can I take care of the children, do you still have to take care of the Dragon Society?! ”

The little brother behind him was shouting, but Li Jie waved his hand to stop it. He didn't want Jing Ruohan to have a good reputation as a "bully" because of this incident.

After thinking about it, Li Jie felt that he should teach this kind of ignorant person a lesson.

"I can give you a proof, as long as you promise to be kind to your children in the future."

"Proof? What proof? The shopkeeper pondered, his eyes lit up and said, "Is my eldest brother going to show me a way to make money?" ”

"Don't look at the money! You have to remember that you will only get as much as you give! As Li Jie spoke, he lightly stroked the top of the head of the child next to him. Don't associate some empty conjectures with your own children, your fortune is only your own. Maybe you don't understand, but the world is like this, only if you pay in other aspects, you will have the harvest you deserve. ”

The shopkeeper said eagerly: "As long as the eldest brother gives me a fortune, I will accept what you say." Afraid that Li Jie would not believe it, he promised: "As long as the business of my store is good in the future, I will not blame my son for any unfortunate things." ”

"Okay! Remember what you said today! Li Jie nodded and turned his head to look outside the store. After being silent for half a minute, he said, "Wait a few minutes, and a beggar will pass by in front of your shop." As long as you give him more than 100 yuan, you can take your business to the next level. If he comes back the next day, you can give more than 100 yuan, and you can naturally go further. Remember, there's only one chance today! ”

Of course he won't believe what Li Jie said. Puzzled, he muttered, "Give money to the beggar?" Who is a beggar? A wealthy businessman in seclusion? …… How do you know that beggars are coming? ”

The small shop business and the alms to the beggars are related to these two inconsequential things. Don't say that the parties don't believe it, even if they are in front of everyone, no one will believe it.

Brother Ma and his subordinates were silent, and they didn't know what medicine Li Jie's gourd was selling. But thinking about the rumors on the road in the past few days, Brother Ma is also interested in seeing if what Li Jie said will happen.

Li Jie, who was full of confidence, naturally didn't bother to explain to them, and leaned back on the chair with a smile. Sometimes laborious eloquence is more convincing than putting the facts in front of you.

Ten minutes later, however, an old beggar staggered to the door of the store with a shabby cane. Holding a notched porcelain bowl with patent leather peeled off, he looked pitifully at everyone in the store.

"Boss, I wish you a prosperous business...... Let's enjoy the stuttering. ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Li Jie in surprise, hurried to the door of the store, took out a brand new hundred-yuan bill from the drawer and threw it into the beggar's bowl.

The beggar looked at it with a pair of confused eyes for a while, and was grateful to the boss for his generosity. Said again and again: "Thank you boss!" Thank you owner! I wish you a prosperous business and a prosperous financial resource! ”

A few words of congratulations made the boss smile, and he saw that the other party was about to turn away. Suddenly remembered Li Jie's words, and hurriedly grabbed him and said, "You come back tomorrow, I'll give you money again!" ”

"What are you going to do?" The old beggar asked alertly. In his opinion, a generous boss had already surprised him, and now he actually told him to pay him back tomorrow. In this kind of world, will the industry of good people, which is almost extinct, be encountered by him?

It can't be that the boss has some other purpose, right? The old beggar said in a panic, "I don't know if I can come tomorrow." I...... I'm all walking around. ”

"Listen to the voice, you're an outsider, aren't you?" The boss, who was thinking about making friends, suddenly received a call to the store.

After answering, I heard that the other party was actually the long-term big customer who had just complained to him in the morning.

"Boss, today we made a mistake. Your goods are fine, we recognize the tobacco and alcohol from other stores as yours...... I'm sorry in the morning, we have already rejected that store, and the company will decide to purchase it at your house in the future. ”

When he put down the phone, the boss was stunned. Suddenly turned around and shouted, "Don't go!" Coming tomorrow is a must be! ”

looked at the boss with eyes like copper bells, and he was still holding on to his crutches and not letting go. The old beggar was frightened and said, "You let me go." I'll give you the money back. ”

"No way!" When the boss shouted, even his voice became strangely sharp.

Ignoring the stench of the old beggar's body, the boss unreasonably shoved the money into his arms. He also said with a sad face: "I beg you." You just be kind enough to help me, once a day. I'll give you a hundred ...... each time No, I'll give you five hundred tomorrow! As long as you're back tomorrow! God of Wealth, you are my God of Wealth! Have mercy on me! ”

Who doesn't want money? What's more, the boss's guarantee makes people feel that he is almost paying the old beggar's salary every day. But the old beggar was afraid, and he didn't know the depth of people's hearts, and the more this unknown wealth came for no reason, the more frightened he felt.

The two were pulling each other dramatically at the door, and Li Jie patted his ass and stood up.

Now that the way has been shown to him, the proof has been shown to him. Whether the rest can be retained is not something that Li Jie cares about.

When he walked past the boss, he patted him on the shoulder and persuaded: "Money is not for a lifetime, but for a lifetime." Remember that you can never blame your family again for having your desires frustrated! ”

"I promise, I promise!" The boss looked up at Li Jie's back in awe. Turning around and anxiously shouting at the store, "Good son, come over and help your father!" Persuade this old man to come over tomorrow! ”

After inadvertently staying outside for a long time, Li Jie hurried to his house.

When I went upstairs, I heard Brother Ma who was sending him behind me and said with a flattering smile: "Brother Li, when will you also show us these little brothers a way to make money?" As long as you open your mouth, don't say give a hundred to the beggar, you can take him back to my house to live. Hehe. ”

Li Jie shook his head with a smile and said, "Everyone has their own way, don't always think about windfalls." You won't be bad if you follow Jing Ruohan. ”

Pursing the corners of his mouth aggrievedly, Brother Ma helplessly watched the anxious Li Jie disappear into the corridor without stopping.

The little brother behind him seemed to understand one thing, and whispered: "Brother Ma, it seems that we will be stationed here for a long time in the future." Maybe one day Brother Li is in a good mood, and we will all send it! ”

"Of course." Brother Ma glared back and warned, "You guys, shut your mouths tighter." Don't talk about today, clear?! ”

How could a group of younger brothers not understand, and hurriedly nodded yes in understanding. "Brother Ma is afraid that after others hear about it, they will ask to be transferred to this district, right?"

Ma Ge roared loudly and firmly: "They dare?!" Who dares to grab this territory, Lao Tzu is desperate with him! ”
