Chapter 13: The Power of Scholars
Wang Ning's place where they eat was originally the snack street near the school, and many colleges and office workers around them like to eat here, and there are not a lot of people coming and going.
In addition to a variety of delicacies, handicrafts, pets, and toy stores have also come here, but the quality of these small shop stalls is uneven, and many black-hearted businessmen like to use some inferior means to make money from students, which is the case this time.
When Wang Ning walked over, he saw a large group of people surrounding a strong middle-aged man in the middle, pointing and talking about something, and in front of the middle-aged man stood a young man dressed as a white-collar worker, the young man's face was full of anger, arguing with the middle-aged man.
Behind the young man was a young girl in her twenties, whose original delicate makeup had been replaced by panic, carefully hidden behind the young man, with a hint of confusion and trepidation on her face.
"Lao Tzu clearly tells you, the price of this dog is five thousand, if you love it, you want it, don't get out of here, don't disturb Lao Tzu in business! Get out of here! The strong middle-aged man didn't care about the more and more people gathered at all, and still said to the young man in front of him.
"I said that you are still unreasonable, this husky has been beaten by you like this, it is impossible to be worth five thousand, let alone five thousand, one thousand is not worth it. I'll give you two thousand now, and you let me take it away!" The young man said excitedly, his eyes still looking at the ground from time to time, where there were faint bursts of dog wailing.
"Yo, why are you kid coming to be the uncle today?" The middle-aged man was still unmoved, squinted at the young man, and said disdainfully: "Lao Tzu is the most annoying to you guys who are uncles, don't you want to show your love?" Okay, 5,000, 5,000 yuan, you can take it away, or I'll kill it and eat meat!" ”
After speaking, the middle-aged man moved his hands, and a stick with a thick arm was lifted by him vigorously and thrown to the ground! Then, a terrible dog bark suddenly came out, covering the entire block, making the whole snack street noisy.
Seeing the middle-aged man's movements, Wang Ning's eyes froze, and he couldn't see clearly from a distance, and now he found that the middle-aged man had a husky tied to his iron rod. Huskies are snow-white all over, and their height is close to half a meter, and they don't look very old.
The husky itself is a famous dog, although the price cannot be compared with those noble dogs, but its price is not low, not to mention the snow-white husky, if it is put on the market, it is impossible to buy this dog for a thousand yuan.
And at this time, the price of this snow-white husky is indeed only worth a thousand, and the husky in front of him is too much worse from the point of view of appearance. The original snow-white dog hair was all glued together because it had not been taken care of for a long time, and there were many obvious scars on the skinny body, which were traces left by man-made injuries.
The whole dog looked scarred, especially the middle-aged man's heavy fall just now, the white husky was completely lying on the ground without moving, after getting closer, Wang Ning could even see a trace of blood on the side of the husky's mouth, it was obviously hit hard, the whole body could no longer support it, and lay on the ground with a bang.
In addition to the beating of the heart, only two slightly open eyes remained. And from these eyes, Wang Ning clearly saw the helplessness, pain and despair hidden by the husky.
"It's not human!"
"MD, this guy is a beast, I really want to kill him!"
The sudden tyranny of the middle-aged man made everyone stunned, and only after seeing the miserable situation of the husky did he react, and the original lively love was completely replaced by anger, and he said indignantly.
didn't care that his actions had aroused public anger, and the middle-aged man still said loudly and arrogantly: "What? How? Don't think that I am afraid of you if there are many of you, Lao Tzu is doing business seriously. If you want to buy it, you can pay for it, if you don't want to buy it, get out, don't make noise here, this husky is Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu can do what he wants! ”
After shouting a few words loudly, the middle-aged man turned his head and said to the original middle-aged man with bad intentions: "What a handsome guy, how are you thinking about it." Aren't you quite a nice person? Now I'll give you this opportunity, you can take it away for 5,000 yuan, otherwise don't disturb my business here!" ”
"You, how can you be so ruthless!"
Before the young man could speak, the girl hiding behind the young man looked at the middle-aged man incredulously, and then looked at the husky lying on the ground and whispered, and said sadly.
"Tsk, you don't care what I do, anyway, the husky is mine, you can't do what I want. Little sister, now it's up to your boyfriend to continue to be this good person! The middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said with an expression that was sure of them.
"Don't talk nonsense, I bought this husky, but it's impossible to have five thousand, I'll give you three thousand!" The young man didn't just want his girlfriend, he really wanted to buy the husky as well. Don't think about it, if this husky follows the middle-aged man, he may not be able to get through tonight!
"Three thousand? No way!! If you say that 5,000 is 5,000, not a dime less. "The attitude of middle-aged people is tough.
"You want five thousand for this sick dog, and your heart is too dark, why don't you rob it!" has been refuted, and the young man's feelings also poured out, and he said loudly.
Looking at the excited young man in front of him, the middle-aged man was not moved, but laughed playfully: "Rob? I'm not robbing, robbery is a crime, I'm trading here in a clear code, saying that five thousand is five thousand, if you can afford it, you can pay for it quickly, and if you can't afford it, you will get out. If you make trouble here again, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite! ”
At the end, the middle-aged man's expression became cold, and coupled with his sturdy figure, he did look a little terrifying.
"Arin?? Let's just go! ”
The girl was taken aback by the middle-aged man, and couldn't help but take a step back, shrink her head, pull the sleeve of the young man's coat, and whispered. In the girl's opinion, it is really a little worthless to be hurt for the sake of a dog.
The young man didn't think so, although his face was red and white when he was choked by the middle-aged man, but he was not ready to leave: "No, if we go, this dog will be killed!" ”
Indeed, young people are telling the truth. Since the news of the Yulin Dog Festival appeared, the so-called dog lovers and dog dealers have been a small trouble for three days and a big trouble for five days. Especially after the so-called dog lovers wrote and acted in a play of dog abuse, dog dealers in other cities also began to learn from Yulin's experience of dog abuse.
Just like a dog lover at the beginning, some black-hearted dog dealers no longer continue to sell dogs normally and learn crooked tricks.
They randomly find a dog in good condition, it may be a local dog, it may be a famous dog, or even a dog stolen by them, and sell it openly in public. These methods of trafficking are unusual, but are made to make dog lovers pay a high price on the condition of dog abuse.
That's what the middle-aged man is doing now, he first finds a husky and then offers a high price for someone to buy it. If someone buys it, everything is negotiable, but if no one buys it, or if the money is relatively small, they will directly beat the dog. Some dogs were beaten to death, and this cruel method was used to force dog lovers to pay a high price.
The young man had seen this kind of post on the Internet before, and originally thought it was fake news, but he didn't expect it to really appear around him this time.
The young man took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and then said: "This gentleman, you are only doing this for money, and I can now promise you to pay for this husky." However, I don't have enough money on me, I need to go to the bank to withdraw the money, I hope you can wait a little longer, and don't continue to abuse it in the process! ”
Hearing the young man say this, the middle-aged man's affection immediately became enthusiastic: "Of course it's no problem, I know that you are a good guy, hurry up and get the money, I'll wait for you here." But you'd better hurry, if it's too late, I'll sell to someone else. As for what will be used in the sales process, I can't guarantee it, after all, this dog is mine, and I can't care about anyone else! ”
"Who said it doesn't matter, this gentleman, I think you may not know the animal protection law!"
As soon as the middle-aged man's words fell, a cold, clear voice suddenly sounded.
