Chapter 157: The Tide of Crazy Robbery

Early in the morning, Leon yawned as he walked down the stairs.

It is a small three-storey building, the first floor is a video store that Lyon has been operating for many years, the second floor is a warehouse, and the third floor is where the family lives.

I looked up at the old-fashioned wall clock on the wall, and it was exactly half past six. After years of habit, he will get up on time every time he arrives, unpack and take care of yesterday's new goods, and then put them on the shelves.

The whole video store is not large, but there are many records and movie discs of all kinds, and there are many regular customers.

It took a lot of effort to put the new product in the most prominent position.

"Well, these records should be enough to sell for a week, and the New Year is the peak season for record sales, especially these days."

Leon muttered to himself for a while, and realized that it was seven o'clock, so he ate something, smoked another cigarette, and then opened the iron door.

A morning light shot in, causing Leon to squint slightly.

At this moment, a dark face blocked the sunlight in front of him, which startled Leon.

"Ghost boy, I started making trouble early in the morning......"

Leon angrily pulled the iron door open completely, and just wanted to scold the black boy just now, but was instantly stunned by the scene in front of him.

Everywhere I looked, there were a pair of steaming eyes. This kind of look Leon has ever seen, and his wife counts the money at the end of each month.

"You ......"

Leon couldn't help but speak in confusion, these people in front of him were obviously teenagers. Everyone was wearing dark green blankets, and their bodies were still trembling slightly. It's just that there is a burst of red light in a pair of eyes, steaming and looking at himself.

"Like...... You don't think you're looking at me. ”

Leon was also startled by the gaze of the hundreds of young men in front of him at first, but he soon found that the fiery gaze of these young men was not locked on him. Instead, he walked directly past himself and looked at the video store behind him.

Even Leon himself couldn't help but turn his head to take a look, and found that there were several sets of new records in front of the door.

Before Leon could find anything, he suddenly heard a scream in his ears, and he hurriedly turned around, but what caught his eyes was a tall chest, and he squeezed himself a few times.

"Rob ......"

"Mine. It's my ......."

"Don't squeeze, don't squeeze."

"Hurry up, I'm blocking them, Kate get on."

……

Leon was hit a few times by several tall young men. One of them almost fell, but fortunately he hurriedly held on to the cash register next to him.

When he heard the phrase 'rob', he was immediately frightened and went into the cashier, guarding the box in front of him, and secretly cursed himself in his heart why he put so much money in the cashier.

His hands were confused and touched a few times. When there's something cold to start with. Leon felt a lot more at ease.

"No, these are obviously children."

Leon hesitated for a moment, but finally put the item back in his hand. When he chose to call the police to call 911, he suddenly found that those young people did not come to rob him of his money, not only that, but he didn't even look at other things in the store, and rushed directly to the shelves with new records.

"These guys are crazy, aren't they?" Leon stared blankly at the screaming young man and looked closely. only to find that what these young people were fighting for was actually yesterday's batch of new goods.

"Haha, I grabbed it. Eminem's new album. "Eight Miles" soundtrack, I love you to death. ”

Leon looked at the excited young man, and at the same time found something in his hand, the words "Eight Miles - Movie Soundtrack" written on the cover.

"What's going on today? Isn't it just a record, as for the trouble, it's so scary? ”

When Leon understood the purpose of these young people, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Man, don't be happy, come and pay the bill."

Leon shouted at the young man, and Fang Le's fart jumped up, and Leon could even see that he was shaking.

"Dude, are you guys here for this?"

Leon asked casually as he collected the money.

The young man smiled excitedly, cherished the "Eight Miles - Movie Soundtrack" record in his arms, and nodded proudly at Leon.

"That's right, we're all here for this new album from Eminem. I waited outside all night last night, and you opened the door too late, and I wanted to kick the door. ”

Listening to the young man's complaints, Leon laughed dryly. Turning his head to look at the young people huddled together with red faces, trying to grab their favorite albums.

"Oops." Leon suddenly smashed his head with his hand, and his face became embarrassed: "The set of "Eight Miles - Movie Soundtrack" was only sold in less than 100 sets yesterday, which is obviously not enough. It's over, my money. ”

Leon was busy collecting the money, and the owners of more than a dozen hands in front of him, each holding the set of records, laughed very excitedly.

Although collecting money is an exciting thing, Leon has a bitter face.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for less than a hundred copies of "Eight Miles - The Soundtrack" to sell out, and in less than ten minutes, Leon had thousands of dollars in his account, which was almost his sales in a week or two, and everyone bought the same album, and none of the other discs were sold.

"Damn, I knew that Lao Tzu would have entered hundreds of sets of it, no, it should be thousands of sets."

Leon had a large stack of money in his hand, but he couldn't be happier.

And those who didn't grab Eminem's new album screamed angrily one by one.

"Is there any mistake? That's it? ”

Looking at the empty shelves, although there were still a variety of other types of discs next to them, in the eyes of these young people, it was obvious that there was nothing.

"Boss, take your life out of the way."

"yes, I'll give you money now, hurry up and sell Eminem's new album to us."

"You don't want to sit on the ground and start the price, do you? As long as it doesn't cost more than twice the price, I'm willing to buy it, so hurry up and get it. ”

"What are you doing in a daze? The money is given to you, catch it. ”

"Boss, I stuffed the money into your hands, you can't go back."

"I gave you an extra dollar, you have to sell it to me first."

……

Leon was indeed frozen, and in the blink of an eye there was another stack of money in his hand, but his face was even more painful.

"I didn't ...... It's gone, it's really gone, it's all sold out. ”

Leon looked at the new stack of money in his hand, and looked very reluctant.

"It's all money, money, this is my week's turnover, and I don't have that Eight Mile - Soundtrack? Why? ”

Leon roared in his heart, full of resentment and unwillingness, because he couldn't earn the money.

And the young people in front of him were obviously even more unwilling than him.

"What?" A young man who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old glared at Leon and shouted, "Old ghost, you even said that there is nothing left? So why did you open this shop? How to go about a fire to burn it? ”

"You're a liar, there's definitely still one." The girl next to her also shouted angrily: "I gave you all the money, please sell me one, I really want it." ”

"Five more dollars for you, that's all I have on me, I'll just need one, one."

Seeing the young men in front of him shouting and screaming at first, and finally starting to shove money into his hands, Leon was already crying in pain.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry, I don't really have that set of records right now, can you wait for me for a day? The money is a deposit at that time......"

Leon was very unwilling, and hurriedly explained to these young people, hoping that they would give him a day to buy goods.

However, before he could finish his words, the young men had already taken the money back.

"Damn, it's a waste of Lao Tzu's time. There is no Eminem's new album, you said it earlier. ”

"That's it, a fool will wait for you, I want it now."

"No, no, no, I have to go to another store."

"I remember there was a video store around the corner."

"Then what the are you doing? Come on. ”

……

The young men ran away as soon as they slipped away, leaving Leon staring blankly at the empty space, as if the lively scene had just been an illusion.

However, when he saw the money in his hand, he knew that everything just now was true.

"I obviously have a stack of money in my hand, but ...... But now it's gone, it's heart-wrenching. ”

Leon looked at the empty left hand, the money that had been actively stuffed in had now flown away.

"Nope." Leon's expression froze, as if he had thought of something: "I'll call his supplier right now,. Yes, how much money did Lao Tzu make less. No wonder that old ghost is willing to give me less than a hundred sets, this. The son obviously did it on purpose and his whole family. ”

When Leon began to make frantic phone calls, almost all the major video chains and small and medium-sized stores in the United States were looking at the frantically snapping up a set of records called "Eight Miles - Movie Soundtrack", and at the same time they found that there was not much stock left, as if it would be robbed in the next second, and there were still a large number of yelling young customers in the store, and even more people crowded outside the store, which made every video store owner both excited and painful.

The two completely opposite feelings made them even more frantic yelling at the supplier on the phone.

"Hurry up, get me a few dozen more ...... for "Eight Miles - The Original Soundtrack" No, hundreds...... Dry, thousands of sets, Lao Tzu wants thousands of sets, the more the better! What the...... You say no? So why not die? (To be continued......)
