Guo Baolin and Fang Nan drove a pickup truck, and took a guy from the restaurant to go around the two fruit and vegetable wholesale markets in Jinghai twice, and before the market closed, they received more than 100 rotten cantaloupe.

Lin Quan was busy with them for a while, so he thought about leaving, and returned to Jinghai on the first day yesterday, and it was already the middle of the night when he got home, and he suffered for a while, so he had to go home and have dinner first today before he could find a chance to sneak out. Lin Quan looked at his own reflection in the clear water, his hair was unkempt in the wind, and the hair in front of him hung down to the tip of his nose, thinking that he would go and comb his hair first, otherwise he would definitely become the target of public criticism at the dinner table.

Lin Quan lives in a family with traditional concepts, and his father, Lin Mingda, who is the principal of Xinghu Middle School in Jinghai Development Zone, can't tolerate his children's behavior in the slightest, even if Lin Quan is his adopted son, he is just as strict.

There is no air conditioning in the rented house, but the courtyard is shaded by tall trees with leafy branches. Lin Quan rode out of the community, wrapped in the hot air waves on the cement road, and after a while, the short-sleeved shirt was wet with sweat. Riding to Jiangwei Town, I turned out of Yuejiang Road, which was a potholed and uneven road, and there were old bungalows on both sides of the road. Lin Quan saw that there was no one in a barber shop, only the proprietress sat on a chair and looked boredly at the sparse pedestrians on the road, a pale cyan plain flower long skirt, a row of metal buttons from the chest to the skirt foot, the bottom three buttons were unfastened, revealing a piece of skin and flesh on the knee, there was nothing to see, but it could be tempting. The glass door was closed tightly, and it looked like it was air-conditioned, and there was a public phone inside the door.

Lin Quan stopped the car, pushed open the door and walked in, glancing at the proprietress who was in her early thirties, white and clean, with a rare delicate atmosphere, thinking that such a barber shop should be full of customers. Walked under the air conditioner, blew the air conditioner for a while, dried the sweaty back, and asked the proprietress: "How much does a haircut cost?" ”

"If it's just a haircut, it's five dollars. It's really hot at this time, do you want to dry clean your hair and add an extra ten dollars? The proprietress visually measured Lin Quan's height, and her hand reached below to adjust the height of the chair, and the neckline was facing Lin Quan.

The proprietress pressed her skirt and her neckline revealing a tempting cleavage, Lin Quan took a look, wondering if there was any other service in this store, probably since ninety-six years, Jinghai's shampoo room has been unprecedentedly prosperous, according to the investigation and research of senior reporters of Jinghai newspaper, there are sixty-seven shampoo rooms in the east city wall root street alone, and there are estimated to be no less than 1,000 shampoo rooms in Jinghai city and suburbs. Lin Quan couldn't help but doubt the boss's hairdressing skills, and asked her: "Just get a haircut, how is your craftsmanship?" ”

"Let's wash my hair first, and I'll be back in a moment after the haircut."

Enjoying the cold air of the air conditioner, he really didn't want to get into the suffocating heat anymore, Lin Quan frowned slightly, but still sat down, took off his glasses, and put them in his jacket pocket.

The proprietress tapped Lin Quan's slightly swollen head with her fingers, and then took two dry towels to pad the back of his head, letting his head press against his plump chest through the towels.

"The haircut's guy hasn't come back yet?" Lin Quan sat up straight.

"I'll be back in a moment."

"Then rush your head first, I'll sit here and wait for him."

When the rinsing head is used, the glass door is pushed open from the outside. Lin Quan glanced back, a neatly dressed middle-aged man was stepping in, he saw a person inside, holding the glass door with his hand and stopped: "Not free?" ”

"He'll be fine right away, you're washing your hair, right?"

The middle-aged man pushed the door and walked in, put the briefcase under his armpit on the mirror table, and stood under the air conditioner to blow the air conditioner like Lin Quan. Lin Quan took the dry towel from the proprietress and wiped his head while looking at the back of the middle-aged man: Guo De has millions of dollars in his whole body, and he is dressed like this. However, Guo Dequan will not go to such a street shop for a haircut, nor will he be afraid to go to such a street shop to find other services.

Lin Quan took the wooden comb from the proprietress and combed the messy hair in the mirror, the wet hair almost hanging down to his lips and covering most of his face. Lin Quan still used the corner of his eye to observe the middle-aged man in the mirror. The proprietress seemed to see a big customer, and her plump body was pasted: "The boss is the first time to come to our store?" ”

At this moment, a woman pushed the door and walked in, wearing a crumpled chemical fiber shirt, with her sleeves up to her elbows, wearing yellow rubber shoes often worn by migrant workers, her sweaty hair was attached to her black forehead, and her lips were chapped and purple.

The middle-aged man impatiently stepped aside and said very unceremoniously: "Stepped on someone!" ”

"I'm sorry." The woman apologized in a distinctly foreign tone, and her expression was restrained and humble.

"Forget it." The middle-aged man took a step back in disgust and stuck with the proprietress together.

"How much does a haircut cost?" The woman seemed to feel that the air conditioner was not blowing, so she rolled up the hem of her clothes, fanned the wind, and exposed a part of her belly, and her rude fingers were annoying. It seemed that the heat was unbearable, and the woman shouted: "The mouth is dry, you take care of them first, I'll buy a drink and come back, you remember I'm the third in line." As soon as the voice fell, people rushed out of the door, with the crispness of a rural woman in the central region. After a while, the woman came back with a bottle of Jianlibao, holding Jianlibao's can pull ring in her left hand, and was looking carefully in front of her eyes, almost hitting the glass door.

"Master, do you think I won the jackpot?"

The woman handed the pull ring to the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man wanted to take it, but she squeezed the pull ring tightly in her hand, as if she was afraid that the middle-aged man would take the opportunity to grab it: "Master, you can look at it this way," and stuffed the can into the middle-aged man's hand, pointed to the words on it, and said: "The first prize is the ace of hearts." ”

"It's really a red heart," the middle-aged man exclaimed in surprise, "You're so lucky, the first prize is more than 40,000 yuan." ”

The proprietress tiptoed over to look. The middle-aged man pointed to the text on the can and read it to the proprietress to read: "Summer promotion true love rebate, one grand prize, a luxury car, worth 260,000 yuan, ten first prizes, ten European tours, worth 42,000 yuan, second prize......... 5,000 fifth prizes, a sportswear watch, special prize, first prize, second prize, can be exchanged for equivalent cash, taxes and fees are at your own expense, oh, you have to pay 20% income tax, that is more than 30,000, it's really good luck, go out to drink a bottle of drink, it will be more than 30,000 yuan. The middle-aged man grabbed the woman's wrist again and handed her hand holding the can tab tightly to the proprietress for her to take a closer look.

"Really." The proprietress was shocked and jealous, and only hated that good luck had not befallen her.

"Really?" The woman was still a little unconfident.

"Of course it's true." The middle-aged man said categorically, "There is a phone on the can, 800 is a toll-free number, you can call the phone here." The middle-aged man was very enthusiastic to lift the microphone, dialed his head sideways, and read out loud while dialing: "800850...... Hey, hey, is this the Jianlibao prize redemption number? Yes, yes, yes, I have someone here who won the first prize, excuse me, how to claim the prize? Jinghai, Jinghai City, I'm here in Jinghai City. He covered the microphone and asked the woman, "Are you going to cash in money?" ”

"With so much money for nothing, who would go to the ghost Europe. Change money, master, change money, please ask, how to change money. ”

"Cash, um, call us, okay." The middle-aged man pouted at the woman, "Pen and paper, note the phone." ”

The proprietress pulled out a pen and paper from the drawer under the mirror.

“051… 888, this number is really easy to remember, it is worthy of a large company, and in the office in Jinghai, it also uses such a good number, and if you install this number, you have to pay more than 20,000 yuan to the telecommunications bureau. ”

The middle-aged man put down the phone, took the paper written down by the proprietress, glanced at it, handed it to the woman, and said: "For the prize, just go directly to Jianlibao's office in Jing'an, you can call and ask." ”

"Big brother, I'm very flustered, I only tremble when I speak, or you help me ask, I will definitely thank my eldest brother when the time comes."

"Thank you, that's what you said, there are so many people in the store, you have to let everyone shine for good luck." The middle-aged man said with a smile, but this time he pressed the "hands-free" button on the phone and dialed the key according to the number on the paper, "Hey, hey, is it Jianlibao Jinghai Office?" ”

"Yes, I'm here is Jianlibao Jing'an Office, are you asking about the prize?"

Listening to the accented reply on the other end of the phone, Lin Quan almost laughed, but his face became more and more cold. The proprietress was anxious and warm, and her eyes were jealous and envious when she looked at the woman.

"Bring your ID card and the winning ring to No. 31 Hongjiang Road, and the deadline for claiming the prize is July 6, good, good, good ......"

Pressing the speakerphone, the middle-aged man looked at the woman and said, "You are so lucky, if you drink this bottle of drink in four days, it will be useless, then the deadline for claiming the prize will be over, hurry up and take your ID card to No. 31 Hongjiang Road to claim the prize, remember to thank us well." ”

"But, but, my ID card has been taken to apply for a temporary residence permit, and it won't be returned to me until ten days later......"

"Ten days? The deadline for redemption has long passed. ”

"What should I do?" The woman was so anxious that she spun around in place, staring at the can pull ring in her hand for a while, and slapping her head vigorously with her hand, as if she was tormented by the huge surprise of winning the lottery and the trouble of her ID card.

"It's better to use my ID card to help you claim the prize......"

"How could you be so kind?" The woman looked at the middle-aged man vigilantly, "The pull ring is in your hand, what if you don't give it back to me?" ”

"Jinghai also has kind-hearted people, so let's do it, I'll take 5,000 yuan from home and press you there, you follow me, but after redeeming the prize, you have to give me 10,000 yuan in bonus."

"Ten thousand bonus?" The woman hesitated a little, and after a while, her demeanor became very resolute again, "Okay, that's it, 10,000 is 10,000, 20,000 yuan for nothing, and you can build a small building when you go back to the countryside." ”

The middle-aged man picked up the briefcase on the mirror and hurried out of the barbershop.

"Help you redeem the prize, and you can share the prize of 10,000 yuan?" Lin Quan took out ten yuan from his trouser pocket and put it on the mirror platform, "Boss, this is the money for washing your hair, I'm leaving." He also hurried out of the barber shop, and the car was not pushed, and when he walked across the road, the middle-aged man walked to the intersection, and when he turned around, he couldn't see anyone. Lin Quan took advantage of the elm trees on the side of the road to look at the scene in the glass door of the barber shop from a distance.

After a while, the woman took a large paper bag wrapped in newspapers, walked out of the barbershop, and strode in the direction where the middle-aged man disappeared, immersed in the excitement of winning the hand, not realizing that Lin Quan was following her closely.

The middle-aged man stood under the tree at another intersection, saw that his companion had succeeded, beckoned her to pass, and suddenly saw Lin Quan behind his companion, and his triumphant expression froze on his face. The woman raised the paper bag in her hand, suddenly felt empty in her hand, turned around and saw Lin Quan with wet hair covering most of her face, and was startled.

"What do you want to do?"

"I cheated money and came to Jinghai, and I don't want to live anymore." Lin Quan glared at the woman viciously, kicked her in the back, the woman didn't watch out, and rolled into the drainage ditch on the side of the road, snorting in pain. Lin Quan saw the middle-aged man coming over, and raised the paper bag in his hand, "You can register in the public security bureau and offer a reward of 20,000 yuan." ”

"Don't be nosy, I'm afraid you won't have the money to eat." The middle-aged man took out a switchblade from his arms and shook it in front of Lin Quan's eyes, the cold light on the blade made his legs and stomachs tremble, and he didn't see him stab at Lin Quan, the middle-aged man suddenly turned around, took the hand of his female companion and ran westward.

The middle-aged man has a knife in his hand, and a fool really chases him. Lin Quan pretended to chase for a while, pretending to be a limp under his feet, and the middle-aged man wanted to come over and grab the paper bag in his hand, but let the female companion grab it, stop a car, and disappear for a while.

Lin Quan suppressed the smile on the corner of his mouth, opened the newspaper and looked at it, sure enough, it was two stacks of thick coins, and the two scammers knew that there were 20,000 cash in the barber shop, and it seemed that they had observed it for a long time before they calmly started. Lin Quan was sure that no one had seen the scene just now, so he walked forward for a while before beckoning to stop a taxi, and had the luxury of letting the taxi take him around the riverbank road in Jiangwei Town, and then returned to the barber shop and got off. Divided 5,000 yuan, pinched it in his hand, and heard a fierce quarrel in the barbershop: "You *** dumbfounded, where in the world is there such a cheap thing?" ”

The man's voice was full of anger, and he was in the midst of anger after realizing that he had been deceived.

"You're a man with a thousand cuts, where did you go when the store was doing business? What if you cheat 20,000 yuan, it's all the old lady who makes people touch their breasts and earn it back, relying on your * haircutting skills, can you support the old lady? ”

"What should I do now, I got up early and worked hard for two years, and I filled in the scratches, call the police."

"The police are used for fart, those green-skinned dogs only know how to touch the old lady's **, will they catch thieves? The alarm is used against the fart. ”

"What if you don't call the police?"

Lin Quan and the others gradually stopped arguing in the barbershop, jumped dozens of times in place, suddenly rushed to the front of the barbershop, pushed the glass door open, looked inside, glanced at the angry proprietress and asked loudly: "Boss, what about that person, what about the person who won the lottery?" ”

"Winning the bullshit award......" a thin man in his thirties scolded.

The proprietress grabbed him backwards, the man almost fell to the ground, the proprietress calmed her mind for a while, and looked at Lin Quan: "You are a young man who just washed his hair?" ”

"That's me, didn't I just say that I would accompany her to receive the prize, just give her a prize of 10,000 yuan, I just took out 5,000 yuan, and I will accompany her to claim the prize when I press her." Lin Quan glanced into the barbershop, "Could it be that the man took the money and took her away first?" Alas, my family lives in Xinpu, a little farther away, otherwise 10,000 yuan would be mine. ”

The proprietress turned her reddish eyes a few times, pretended to smile very reluctantly, and said: "The man didn't come, the woman left in a hurry and took five thousand yuan from me, and the winning ring is still with me, and when I redeem the prize, she will come over and share." ”

"You're really lucky, you got 10,000 yuan for nothing."

"Little brother, you don't know, I just remembered at this moment that I and my man's ID cards were handed over to apply for a temporary residence permit, and the day after tomorrow I couldn't handle her exchange money, not only sorry for her, but also embarrassed to return the 5,000 yuan we earned back. Little brother, you have Jinghai ID card. ”

"Of course." Lin Quan opened the wallet and shook the ID card inside.

"Then you give us 5,000 yuan, and we will give you the pull ring to receive the prize, and after receiving the prize, you only need to give me 15,000, so that I can give it to that big girl."

"Really?"

"We don't have ID cards, and we can't do anything if we want to earn this money, it's just a cheap little brother. Little brother, you copy down your ID number, and we will ask you for money. ”

"What, you don't believe me?" Lin Quan raised a handful of banknotes in his hand into the air, "I worked hard to take out the money and ran here, the sweat on my body hasn't dried yet, you don't believe me." ”

The proprietress was upset and was about to reach out to receive the money, but Lin Quan took her hand back: "What about the winning ring?" ”

"Where's the pull ring?" The proprietress remembered that when she was impatient, she smashed the ring in her man's face, where to find the ring at this time, I just hope that the young people in front of me will not be suspicious, and they can save 5,000 yuan, which means that the good day is too bad for them. The thin man's eyes were sharp, and he found the pull ring from under the sink table, and handed it to Lin Quan's eyes with a smile on his face: "Is this it?" I've never seen something so valuable, and I accidentally fell to the ground. ”

Lin Quan took the pull ring, picked up the Jianlibao can in the corner, and carefully compared the pattern: "This is it." Handing over the money to the proprietress in front of her, "You order a little, 5,000 yuan, and tomorrow I will go to redeem the gold, and after redeeming the prize, I will send the extra 15,000 yuan to the store." ”

Lin Quan walked out of the barber shop, glanced at the proprietress with nostalgia, pushed the car out of the intersection, and casually threw the pull ring into the sewage ditch in the road.
