Chapter 097 Scam
Walk along the street with your head bowed, keeping an eye out for movement around you, passing vehicles and passing pedestrians.
As he walked, he put his hand in his pocket and touched the jewelry he took out of the iron box, and he couldn't help but snicker in his heart, and a lot of sweat oozed from his palm.
The cool feeling of dampness, especially touching the smooth cross-section of the gemstone, I really want to shout, I have money again.
Unlike last time, this time it was solid gold in hand, but there was still one thing worth worrying, how could these things be turned into cash? You can't just take these jewels and go shopping, can you?
Take it to the jewelry store and sell it! But could something hidden in such a hidden place be obtained through formal means?
Calm down, put aside the greed when you first saw these things, and think about it carefully, could it be stolen? Stolen goods embezzled by robbers? Surely there is something that cannot be seen in the light.
He began to get restless again, and really wanted to go back and send these things back to the old city.
However, he was unable to let go of his natural selfishness. Maybe it's a trait that all people share. As a poor man now, it was really hard for him to resist the temptation of these jewels.
I walked a long way aimlessly, I don't know how far away from the park is now, there are tall buildings on both sides, and the door decoration is very fashionable. attracted Lin Yang's attention. It was the first time he had wandered the streets so idlely. After coming to the mountain town, there are not many such days.
I've been busy before, although I don't know what I'm doing for. It seems that all the time is entangled in trivial matters, I don't enjoy life well, and I don't really do anything meaningful, I mix with four girls every day, eat with them, play with them, and deal with countless troubles for them, when they are angry, they are their punching bag, and when they are happy, they use them as happy beans, what is the point of living such a life? .
"Hey, brother, okay!"
Suddenly, a hand grabbed her arm, Lin Yang was thinking about things in his heart, and was startled by him!
Beside him stood a sloppy beggar on crutches, looking at his age of about 50 years old, his clothes were tattered, his face had not been washed for I don't know how many days, there were black sweat stains, and the hair on his head, even if it was very short hair, gave people a dirty and messy feeling.
Lin Yang opened his mouth and asked, "Do you have something wrong?" ”
The other party's eyes were very weird, and he said expressionlessly: "Little brother, I am a cripple, my leg is broken and I can't take care of myself, can you do it well, give me some money, let me take a bath!" ”
Lin Yang blinked, this was still the most bizarre begging word he had ever heard. Anyone I met before would say pity me, give me something to eat! I haven't heard a beggar ask for money to take a bath.
Lin Yang looked at him carefully, he was holding bright stainless steel crutches, obviously not bearing much force, and his leg injury may not be as serious as he said. At least he didn't walk on crutches, looking at his physique was quite tall and strong, at least half a head taller than himself, although his face was full of sweat, but his complexion was good. Eighty percent of this guy is pretending.
Maybe he's a professional beggar who makes begging a profession. I've seen reports on the news before that such people earn millions a year, and they are veritable sympathizers for fraudsters.
Thinking of this, Lin Yang smiled, "Big brother, do you think I look like a rich man?" ”
The beggar looked him up and down a few times with disdain, "Little brother, help, big brother's leg is really broken." ”
As he spoke, he patted one of his legs lightly with his hand.
Lin Yang smiled again, "I see that your legs are good!" Don't see what's wrong? ”
After listening to Lin Yang's words, his voice raised, the expression on his face also changed, his eyebrows raised, and a domineering look appeared.
In a tone that is not a beggar at all, he said, "Give money to the little hairy egg!" ”
Lin Yang was amused for a while, and after a few words, the other party couldn't bear to reveal his original form. Is it obvious that the bear man is scaring the child? This kind of person is completely a nasty ruffian who sees the weak and bullies the strong, and does everything to cheat and abduct.
It was also a whim, he took out a ring from his pocket, and only when he held it in his hand did he see that it was a very large diamond ring, and after seeing it, he regretted it, and it was too late to put it back.
The fake beggar also saw what he was holding in his hand, and his eyes lit up.
"Kid! Give me your damn diamond ring! ”
Saying that, he stretched out his hand and wanted to come over and grab it, Lin Yang slapped his hand away, "You're not afraid that what I'm holding in my hand is fake?" ”
The other party shouted: "I don't care if your mother is true or not, hurry up and give it to me!" ”
By this time he was already holding his crutches with one hand, as if he thought that there was no need to pretend, and it would not be difficult to snatch something from a child half a head shorter than him.
"Yes, you're right, this is my mother's diamond ring, I stole it out and wanted to sell it, why do you want to buy it?"
The other party didn't mean to deal with him, and he didn't want to hear him tell him about the origin of this diamond ring, and he just wanted to get it. "Buy your mother!"
Raise the crutches in his hand high and threaten Lin Yang, "Hurry up and give it to me, otherwise I will beat you flat!" ”
Lin Yang unhurriedly put the diamond ring back into his pocket and stuck out his tongue at him.
"I want you to come and grab it! Otherwise, I'll give it to you cheaper, how about 10,000 yuan? ”
"Fuck you!"
The other party was already impatient, and smashed Lin Yang's head with a cane.
Lin Yang dodged to the side unhurriedly, and his crutches didn't hit him.
There were people passing by, and some people watching from afar, but no one came to help, and they didn't even dare to say a word to stop it. Their location is not far from the intersection, and the convoy waiting for the red light will naturally line up here. But everyone seemed to be only in the mood of onlookers, and no one came to ask what was going on!
Lin Yang hated this kind of bully guy from the bottom of his heart, and he didn't dare to bully people who were stronger than him, and would only ride on the heads of the old and weak women and children.
"It's a big person, don't be old!"
When he raised his crutches to attack Lin Yang again, Lin Yang decisively kicked him in the knee, Lin Yang looked like an embarrassed child, how heavy the strength of his feet was, it is estimated that only the guy who was kicked knew it!
"Your leg really looks like it's a bad leg!"
After Lin Yang's words were finished, the other party was already kneeling on the ground, this guy seemed to be still unconvinced, looking at Lin Yang with fierce eyes, wanting to get up from the ground, the kicked leg was no longer strong.
Fortunately, he held crutches in his hands and skillfully clubbed a cane, so he could barely stand up straight.
Lin Yang looked at him with a smile, "Big brother, do you want me to help you check your other leg?" ”
The fake beggar snorted twice in pain, "Count you ruthless, let's see!" ”
Throwing Lin Yang a hateful look, he limped into the small alley in front of him.
Lin Yang's mood was much better, and he kicked this guy painfully, as if he had relieved a lot of sorrow. Triumphantly turned around and was about to leave.
I don't know who shouted behind him, "Hey! Lad! ”
Lin Yang looked back, and the people who stopped or passed by just now had already left, and only an old man in a white suit and a white top hat was standing behind him. The old man was dressed very exquisitely, his face was red, and he looked quite gentlemanly.
As he spoke, he walked up to Lin Yang. He pointed to Lin Yang's pocket, "Is that thing of yours really going to be sold?" ”
Lin Yang blinked his eyes and didn't understand what he meant, and the other party seemed to see his thoughts. Then he said: "Do you really want to sell that diamond ring just now?" ”
Hum!
Lin Yang snorted quietly.
"If you want to sell it, can you let me see it?"
As he spoke, the old man stretched out a hand and waited, and Lin Yang took out the things.
Lin Yang hesitated and didn't know what to do, he looked at the old man in a daze, and the old man smiled and pointed to the one next to him, a luxuriously decorated gate market.
"This gold shop is mine, if you want to sell what you have in your pocket, you can sell it to me at the original price!" I'll give you the highest price that no one else can give! ”
Lin Yang was really tempted, he was worried that he had no place to digest these things, and he couldn't change cash! Unexpectedly, by chance, the fake beggar actually helped him.
Lin Yang looked at the store next to him questioningly, and the four golden characters on it "Heart Love Jewelry" said in a skeptical tone: "Do you really want to buy it?" I got it secretly from my mom! ”
The old man smiled and said, "It's okay! I'm buying a baby, no matter where it comes from! I won't tell your mother! ”
Lin Yang believed his words, felt it from his pocket, took out the diamond ring, and when he put it in the old man's hand, he still hesitated to stop.
"How much can you give me?"
The old man saw his thoughts, "Don't worry, I will give you the highest price!" ”
Lin Yang dared to put the diamond ring in his hand, but Lin Yang still stared at him uneasily.
The old man took the diamond ring seriously, looked at it carefully, turned it over and over, and finally took out a very small magnifying glass in his pocket, and looked at the diamond ring carefully.
Finally, he said, "What a good thing!" A rare treasure in the world! ”
Lin Yang asked eagerly, "How much is it worth?" ”
The old man looked at him and held out five fingers.
"5,000?"
The old man shook his head!
"Is this a fake? Worth only 500 pieces? ”
Lin Yang looked at him in disappointment, and the old man smiled and took the diamond ring in his hand and put the small magnifying glass in his pocket.
"This stone, I estimate the conservative price to be at least 50,000!"
Lin Yang looked at him in disbelief, "It's true, you didn't lie to me?" ”
The old man approached him and pointed to the gold shop next to him, "How could I lie to you!" Go, follow me to my store and get the money, I'll give you 50,000 now! ”
Saying that, the old man walked into the store, and Lin Yang followed him closely into the jewelry store. The jewelry store is full of dazzling gold and glittering. All kinds of colorful jewelry and jewelry are displayed in the glass display case, the salesman in overalls stands behind the display case, greets them with a bright smile, and the two security guards at the door stand behind the small white tables on both sides of the door. His eyes looked at them resolutely, and he nodded at the old man. Probably seeing the boss to welcome him. Lin Yang was naturally in no mood to be nostalgic for these.
