Chapter 403: The Monkey Is Coming (Fourth Watch)
Xiamen University in April, filled with the fragrance of flowers and full of spring, is known as one of the most beautiful schools in China, which is definitely not a false rumor. I don't think it's a school, it's a tourist attraction, and I get countless tickets every year. Or even if the doorman charges tickets to tourists, he can make a lot of extra money because there are a lot of tourists.
Of course, the school does not allow the doorman to do such a thing, and will not be treated as a paid attraction, this is a school, a place for learning and exchange, April 6th, is also the school's anniversary, more than 90 years of history. Two years from now, the 100th anniversary of the school will be celebrated, and at that time, it seems that I have not yet left to graduate.
But that was two years later.
Before the school anniversary, an old classmate Wu Dandan, who had not been in touch for a long time, suddenly called me, when she knew that I was in Xiamen University, she said that she would return to China on May Day, just to come to Xiamen University to play, let me do the friendship of the landlord, take her to Xiamen University to play.
Naturally, I agreed without hesitation, because hearing her voice, I can still clearly remember what happened in the corridor of her house, and the reluctance of her to leave next to the school grove.
She has been abroad for more than two years, and she has not been contacted, but fortunately my number has not been changed, otherwise she probably wouldn't be able to contact me. In fact, when I was on May Day, Yang Xiuying planned to come over here to have a fun, but Wu Dandan came suddenly, and this time was a conflict. But she only comes back once in more than two years, and when she comes back, she still remembers to play with me, so I will definitely agree without hesitation, it is impossible to say that there is no time, right?
Fortunately, there are still more than 20 days before May Day, so let's take a look at it then.
If Wu Dandan called me to surprise me, then another person surprised me even more - Huang Heshan, a junior high school classmate monkey I met in the town during the winter vacation. Before the Chinese New Year, the monkey was chased and killed by others because he went to gamble and won a lot of money, I helped him once, and finally left him a phone number, saying that he could come to Xiamen to find me.
It's just been more than two months, and if he hadn't called, I would have almost forgotten. After talking to him on the phone, I learned that he had arrived in Xiamen, so I asked him to take a taxi to Xiamen University, and I waited for him at the gate of Xiamen University.
When I saw the monkey at the gate of Xiamen, I knew that he didn't come alone, and there was a friend who chewed betel nut and dragged it like 2580,000 yuan, and the monkey introduced to me that this was his senior brother, ranking the ninth, so the nickname has always been called Lao Jiu.
Lao Jiu glanced at me and immediately said, "Monkey, I thought your friend was messing around here, or a student of Xiamen University?" It's better for us to go around Xiamen by ourselves. ”
"Junko, this guy is like this, he thinks he is amazing, but in fact, Qianshu is worse than me, don't mind his words." The monkey immediately explained to me that he was afraid that I would be angry.
"It's fine." I shook my head, then put my arm around the monkey's shoulders and said with a smile: "Go, drink, I haven't seen you for so many years, you have to tell me about your wonderful life, is it already bullish on the road of Lao Qian." ”
"Say as you drink." The monkey grinned.
I found a food stall next to the school, but Lao Jiuting felt that the place was too cold, and it was actually a roadside food stall, not a big restaurant, and he seemed to look down on me even more. But he didn't know that the seafood at the food stall I chose tasted very good, and during this time at Xiamen University, I had been here with Ren Chong and Liang Hongyun several times.
Now invite Lao Jiu to eat authentic and fresh seafood, is he still not happy? Actually, it's not that I don't have the money to go to a big hotel, just to see if the monkey has changed, if he dislikes the place I chose is too low-grade and not interesting enough, then after eating this meal, I can only go further and further with him. Because when I was in junior high school, he knew that my family was not much better off than his.
But the monkey didn't mind, and said that the food stalls ate freely, listening to Lao Jiu still complaining, the monkey said angrily: "Love to eat or not, I didn't have to pull you to come to Xiamen with me, if you want to go to the hotel, you please." ”
Lao Jiu stopped talking, sat down at the food stall, Lao Jiu took out a pack of hard Chinese by himself, chewed betel nut and smoked at the same time, as if he didn't intend to give me a cigarette. The monkey was not polite, grabbed a pack of cigarettes, handed me one, and I stopped, saying that I didn't want to smoke much now.
"Damn, you're still a good student, aren't you?" The monkey chuckled.
I didn't explain, I just told the boss about some fresh seafood and a case of beer, and the boss first brought the beer and then went into the kitchen to stir-fry. I opened the lid of the beer, poured a glass for the monkey and Lao Jiu, and then touched a glass with the monkey and asked him what he was doing after junior high school.
The monkey said that after graduating from junior high school, he stopped studying, and mixed in the casino in the town for half a year, and met an old man, he pestered the old man to learn art, and the old man really had no choice, and saw that he also had some talent, so he accepted him as an apprentice, and in recent years, he has been following his master around the casinos in several nearby cities, while learning art, while giving his master a hand.
But last year, his master was found in a gamble, and he ran back to his house when he saw that the situation was not good, and hid for a while, but he had no money, so he began to go to the casino in the town to gamble, and the result was that he won a little more, and was directly chased and killed by those people, and he ran into me at that time.
After he left the town, he went to look for his master, who had been released, but had one of his fingers chopped off, and was already planning to wash his hands in a golden basin and never do it again. At his master's house, he met Lao Jiu, and finally thought about it, he remembered that I was in Xiamen, so he planned to come to Xiamen first, Lao Jiu said that they could cooperate, it would be more convenient to go out of Lao Qian, so he pestered him to come to Xiamen together.
My face is weird, in the past, monkeys in junior high school like to play poker, fried gold flowers out of the thousands, but the trick is too lame, often beaten by classmates. Unexpectedly, after graduating, he really embarked on this road and worshiped an old master.
In fact, my underground casino just lacks a trustworthy old man to sit in, and if the monkey's skills really pass, he can be qualified for that position. But I didn't bring it up at this time, so I'll continue to test it. If the monkey's skills are not up to par, letting him go will not only hurt him, but also me, which is not good for both of us.
And I don't want to say it in front of Lao Jiu, this Lao Jiu's character is not very good, I feel completely unbreathed, if he has to follow the monkey to my underground casino to do things, I think the monkey's face can't not agree, right? Lao Jiu went, that is, to add to the chaos.
After the seafood was served, we started to eat, a case of 12 bottles of beer, four bottles of beer for one person and not drunk, after drinking I went to settle the bill, and told the monkey that they would take a break tonight, come here, eat and stay Although there is certainly no star treatment, but I am sure that it is all inclusive.
The monkey smiled and said that I was still righteous enough, I took the two of them to the hotel next to the school, opened two rooms for them, and continued to chat for a while, I was going to leave, the monkey suddenly asked me if I knew about the nearby casino, I said that I knew one, he asked me to tell him the address, and also borrowed money from me, and said that he would definitely return it to me twice tomorrow.
I asked him how much he wanted, and he said that if he had, two or three thousand, and if he didn't, seven or eight hundred, he would be fine, because he went to his master's place to buy gifts and other things, and spent almost all the money, and now he has no gambling capital.
I didn't hesitate, there were two thousand three hundred in the wallet, and I handed them all to the monkey, and he said that I was still righteous enough. I said that if you go to an underground casino, you have to be careful, and he said that you know, as long as you don't win too much, the underground casino won't care. I told him the address of the bar and left the hotel.
On the way to the rental house, I called Xue Tao and asked him to pay attention to a skinny guy and a guy who likes to chew betel nut, they will go to the casino to play, maybe there will be a Qianqian, if the old Qian is discovered, don't catch them, let them go. If you win, let them go.
Xue Tao said that he should pay more attention.
If the monkey can win it back, and he can return the money he borrowed from me, then he can be considered to have passed the test, it depends on what he does, if he is too ruthless, I don't need such a person, it's not good to be too greedy!
