Chapter 122: Eighteen Dollars

After eating, the two didn't walk a few steps on the street, and found a middle-aged woman crying on the side of the road, and a middle-aged man next to him kept comforting. Snow Lotus didn't know what the situation was, but she looked quite pitiful. Zhicheng also glanced at the two people, but was surprised to find that it was someone from his own village. So he stepped forward and asked, "Third uncle, third aunt, why are you here, what happened?" ”

"Oh, Zhicheng, what a coincidence." The middle-aged man said half-surprised and half-sad: "I came to the city to order wholesale goods a few days ago, and the electric three-wheeler was detained by the traffic police. Who knew that the traffic police team would not give anything, not only fined me 1,300 yuan, but also detained me for 15 days. What kind of world do you say this is, I didn't drive a heavy truck or a big passenger, and I didn't confiscate some goods on a small electric tricycle, which still makes the people live? The middle-aged man had tears in his eyes as he spoke, and finally squatted on the ground aggrievedly and choked up.

Zhicheng was also helpless after learning the basic situation, so he asked Xuelian on the side for help: "Little sister, what do you think should be done?" Can you help them. This is my third uncle and third aunt, who are very close to our family, and they open a small shop in the village, just because they order goods wholesale......"

Xuelian nodded and said, "I heard it just now, this matter must be related, I want to find a way." She stepped forward and said to the two of them cordially: "Uncle, aunt, don't cry, I'll help you with my affairs." Come, give me the slip. ”

The two raised their heads with tears and looked at the girl in front of them in disbelief. Zhicheng stepped forward to help the two of them up and said, "Third uncle and third aunt, this is my high school classmate, you can give her the list." Maybe it can help you......"

The middle-aged man hurriedly thanked Xue Lian, then handed the list to Xue Lian with both hands, and explained: "I didn't violate the rules, I didn't touch anyone, and I didn't ride onto the motorway......

Xue Lian looked at the slip in her hand and said, "Uncle, they detained your car not because of these, but because you are unlicensed and unlicensed." Okay, leave this to me, you haven't eaten yet. Come, auntie, you can have some food in the store first. Snow Lotus took the two to a shop on the side of the road and personally paid for them two fast foods. Then he and Zhicheng walked to the traffic police team not far away.

Zhicheng asked a little apprehensively: "Little sister, do you think this thing is easy to do?" Am I ...... I'm causing you trouble again. ”

"Giggles, who are the two of us! Hmph, whether it's good or not, it all depends on the relationship, as long as your relationship is hard, big things can be settled. It's a bit ugly, but that's China's national situation. Nowadays, everything has to be relational, and it shouldn't be difficult to use my interpersonal relationships. If you don't use the relationship, it's a bit of a problem. That's how important social relationships are. If you don't believe it, you will definitely come out with a nose. If you want to survive on the land of China, you must understand the sophistication of human feelings, you must understand the rules of the game, and you must know how to use routines......"

Xue Lian glanced at the slip in her hand and said angrily: "Isn't this electric tricycle a moped?" When did it become a motor vehicle. Besides, a small B city like Hechang will not be able to seize the electric three-wheeler, is this obviously a random fine. ”

When Xuelian came to the traffic police processing center and handed the slip to one of the people in charge, the man glanced at the list and said, "Didn't two people come just now?" It doesn't seem like it's the two of you...... In this case, it is reasonable to detain them. ”

"Detention? It's a bit too much. Drive an electric car and don't detain you. Why not detain producers, sellers. Why not control it at the source. Besides, we and Chang are not first-tier cities, and the streets are full of electric tricycles, can you check it? There are a few with licenses and driver's licenses. Is it to find out who is unlucky? It's not easy for people to pull some goods. As law enforcers, you also have to be flexible, people can't afford to buy trucks, how much can you break by riding an electric car, and besides, he doesn't take the motorway. ”

"It's useless for you to tell me these words, if you want a car, you will be detained for 15 days and fined 1,300 yuan, otherwise don't ask for a car."

"This is too ......" Xue Lian stopped talking and said, "Okay, then you wait a minute, let's go out and make a call to ask......"

Xue Lian walked out of the room and browsed the phone book of six or seven hundred people in her mobile phone in the corridor, and finally dialed one of the numbers called Aunt Liu, an old friend of Xue Lian's mother and a well-known lawyer in Hechang, whose daughter and Xue Lian were classmates in junior high school.

Xuelian told her about the seizure of the electric car and asked her what to do. After Aunt Liu heard Xuelian's voice, she was very enthusiastic, but she didn't tell her the proper handling procedures, but just readily promised to help her get the car out as soon as possible, and asked Xuelian to say hello to her parents.

Xuelian then called her fourth aunt Song Hongmei again to see if she could help. It just so happened that Hongmei met a traffic police leader in a theatrical performance with the theme of "Ping An 365", so it was not difficult to do this.

Xuelian hung up her phone and said, "Brother, let's wait for a while, it should be fine." ”

Less than five minutes later, the phone rang on the desk in the room. The person in charge answered the phone with a smile, and immediately said to Zhicheng and Xuelian, who were standing at the door, with a smile on their faces: "Oh, why didn't the two of you know Director Sun say it earlier." Sit down! As he spoke, he poured two glasses of water and put them in front of the two of them.

At this time, the phone rang again, and the person in charge took the phone and said, "Hey, hello...... Oh, Director Liu, hello, okay, you say...... Yes, yes, yes...... Oh, I already know that...... There were no violations or accidents...... Okay, okay, okay, I'll do it right away, do it right away...... Yes, yes, yes, well, please rest assured that Liu Ju ......"

The man put down the phone and smiled even more, and said kindly: "I'm really sorry, I'm so offended." I didn't expect you to even know Liu Ju, blame me for having no eyes, drink some water, wait a minute, I'll do it for you right away......"

"So when can we pick up the car...... Do you still want to be fined? ”

"Bureau Sun and Bureau Liu have both confessed, what is the fine. It was a misunderstanding. I didn't say it early when I knew the leader, I was too passive. I'll give you an order, and you can pick up the car right away, and the car is in the Chengguan police station. The man opened a note and handed it to Snow Lotus with a smile.

When Xuelian handed the note to the middle-aged couple who had been waiting at the door of the traffic police team for a long time, the two immediately burst into tears, and their gratitude was overflowing.

"Oh, girl, how can we thank you. We've been running back and forth for three days without getting it done......"

Xue Lian smiled and said, "Uncle, aunt, you don't have to be polite. Okay, now just go to the Chengguan Police Station and drive the car away, and be careful on the road in the future, don't let them catch it. But you can't run a red light either......"

After Xue Lian and Zhicheng sent the two away with a smile, they carried their big black convenience bags and began to wander around the city looking for mineral water bottles. Sometimes a young couple just threw the drink bottle on the ground, and Xuelian ran over to pick it up and put it in a big black convenience bag, as if she had found a hundred yuan. From time to time, the two of them also robbed wildly for a mineral water bottle, regardless of everyone's attention.

Towards evening, Xue Lian picked up a large bag full of mineral water bottles, her face was hot and sweaty, she still held one in her hand, and wiped the sweat beads with her arm from time to time, she would rather pinch it than put it into Zhicheng's spare convenience bag, just to compare with him to see who sells for more money.

Xue Lian raised her hand to stop a rickshaw on the side of the road, and the old man promised two yuan to take them to a nearby scrap yard, and Xue Lian and Zhicheng sat in it together. When the old man on the pedaling car learned from Xuelian's mouth that these two large bags of mineral water bottles were picked up by them one by one, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, he couldn't believe that the pretty and smart girl in stockings and short skirts in front of him would pick up mineral water bottles all over the street, just from the clothes and clothes, it can be seen that she has a superior family background, he doesn't know what she is trying to do......

"Uncle, you don't have to be stunned, we are working and studying. Let's go! They also belong to the poor people of the world. Giggle......"

The old man who was pedaling three wheels also smiled, wiped the sweat on his face with a towel and couldn't help but say: "Girl, your little mouth is so sweet, to be honest, I have been pedaling three wheels for seven or eight years, and I have never met an old man like you, who speaks so amiably." In the past, those foreign little girls called me to "pedal three wheels", and when I encountered a headwind on the road, I was like a slow kick, so I yelled and screamed, and I was like an animal, and I was almost whipped with a whip. Heyβ€”what a difference between people and people! ”

Xue Lian pursed her lips and said a little sadly: "Uncle, you can't be angry with that kind of unreasonable person, so you should pull the animal yourself." If there is anything disrespectful about the two of us, you will always treat us as animals! ”

The old man excitedly took over the conversation and said, "Oops! Look at what you're talking about! Oh, Nil, sit down, today! The old man willingly gave you back as an animal. To tell you the truth, I feel good in my heart to treat reasonable people like you as animals. ”

The old man said and rode on three wheels and pedaled vigorously. He hummed a ballad happily in his mouth, and seemed to have pulled a big deal. This is really "a good word is warm in three winters, and bad words are hurtful and cold in June".

Xue Lian looked at the old man's struggling back and said, "Uncle, you can change this rickshaw to an electric ......"

The old man sighed: "I bought an electric three-wheeler before, but it was confiscated by the traffic police after just three days of riding." 2500 yuan to buy, how many people do I have to pull to earn it back, hey, this world ......"

At this time, Xuelian suddenly remembered what happened to the traffic police team at noon, so she lowered her head helplessly.

After arriving at the destination, Xuelian hurriedly thanked the old man, and took out five yuan from his pocket and handed it to the old man, but the stubborn old man said that he didn't want anything, and helped them slip down the mineral water bottle and turn around the car and leave.

Xue Lian hurriedly stepped forward to stop the old man and said gratefully: "Uncle, you don't want this money, don't you give us our birthday!" You are so old, you sent us here all the way, how can there be a reason to give it away in vain! ”

"Uncle, just take it! It's not easy for you to make two dollars all day long. Zhicheng looked at this old man with ragged clothes and gray temples, and couldn't help but think of his old and frail father. At this time, Zhicheng realized that the people in this city were not all rich and oily......

At this time, there were already a few onlookers from afar, who thought that there was a dispute because the price between the two sides had not been negotiated, and that Cheng was thinking that they were pushing each other.

The old man on the pedaling sighed and said deeply, "Girl! To be honest, I've pedaled three rounds for more than ten years, and I really haven't pulled anyone in vain. Today you can let me pull it back, even though it's a white pull. But my beauty is good. Girl, get the money back! What is it to send you this part of the road? If there is a next time, the old man will pull you in vain......"

When Xue Lian heard this, she couldn't help but tears swirling in her eyes, and the hand that handed over the money was slowly taken back. Xue Lian and Zhicheng stood on the side of the road and watched the old man go away, before carrying mineral water bottles and walking towards the scrap yard on the side of the road.

Zhicheng's sold for eight yuan and five, and Xuelian's sold for nine yuan and six. The two of them gave 18 yuan together, but they felt that what they had gained was not only the 18 yuan, but also how to face the spicy eyes of others, how to deal with other people's misunderstandings, and how to establish a positive and optimistic attitude in an embarrassing environment.
