Chapter Seventy-Eight: First Encounter with Liu Mei
With his pants in hand, Hain pretended to be happy that he had won, chatted with the shopkeeper for a few more words, and then quit the store.
As soon as he walked out of the shop, the smile on Hain's face disappeared, and he took a few steps forward before stopping.
Now Hain has been able to preliminarily confirm that he has been set up by someone to trap him.
First, when he entered the mall, he was first attracted by the thief, and then when he got up the escalator, he was distracted by the traffickers next to the children's playground.
After getting out of the escalator, he also reminded the eldest sister with the child to be optimistic about her child, but this turn of his head entered the bureau set up by others.
Thinking about it this way, it seems that the girl is the person who set up the bureau, the previous thief, the trafficker and the eldest sister with the child, it is estimated that she arranged it!
However, Hain turned it over and thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out what the girl had done and where she had done it.
After all, Hain didn't notice anything wrong from the moment he entered the door of the store to the time he left it, and in that store, except for the raffle box and the pants in his hand, he had no contact with anyone or anything.
Moreover, Hain also saw from the casual conversation with the shopkeeper before leaving that the boss actually didn't know anything about this matter, and from this, he drew a corollary that it was likely that even the thief and those traffickers were tricked by this girl in some way!
Thinking of this, Hain looked down at the pants in his hand again, and then turned his eyes to look at the moon cake in his other hand, and after reading it, he sighed and said, "Forget it, let's take one step at a time!" After speaking, he walked forward again.
Turning an aisle, not far in front of him is the place he is going, it is a store that sells shoes, the owner is called Liu Mei, this is a very important customer of his, that is because, after Liu Mei and he got to know him, not only did he leave the waste products from his own store to Haien, but also helped him to collect the waste products from other stores in this shopping mall.
Haien has made a lot of money in this shopping mall, and this is all thanks to this Liu Mei, so to give Liu Mei a gift, that grade must be one level higher.
And there is a little misunderstanding here, precisely because Liu Mei helped Haien collect scrap, and those who opened stores in this shopping mall were mostly women, so the gossip and gossip were indispensable, and everyone was talking about it behind their backs, and they all said that Liu Mei and a person who collected rags were not clear.
However, although Liu Mei listened to those rumors, she didn't take it to heart, and once when Hai En was in tatters, she also said to Liu Mei: "Sister Mei, I won't come in the future, this... It doesn't affect you well! ”
And Liu Mei said at the time: "We are not afraid of shadows, I'm fine, what are you afraid of, besides, I'm not married, I'm afraid of what they say, they are not afraid of rotten tongues, let them say it!"
Although the topic was awkward, it passed as soon as it was said and laughed, and since then, neither of them has mentioned this stubble again.
And the reason why Liu Mei helped Hain so much starts from their first meeting.
At that time, Haien had just come to the city, he was unfamiliar with the place, riding a three-wheeled street to collect rags, he passed by Liu Mei's community, and saw a garbage pond not far from the entrance of the community.
The community where Liu Mei lives is an old community, with a history of more than 20 years, belonging to the first batch of commercial houses after the reform and opening up, such an old community is not high-rise, compared with the high-rise buildings with more than ten or twenty floors now, this row of eight units of rows of buildings, looks full of a sense of the times.
The garbage pond is also a feature of this community, compared with the garbage cans that are now all over the streets and alleys, although it is a little dirty, but it is full of memories.
Hain saw that in that garbage pool, all kinds of household garbage were piled high, he thought about it and rode three wheels to the guard room at the entrance of the community.
The doorman was a middle-aged man with a foreign accent, and when Hain finished his cigarette, he said to the doorman: "Big brother, I am a collector, I want to go to that garbage pond to pick up some rags, do you think it's okay?" I'm not going inside, I'm just going to pull some there! ”
Hain actually didn't hold out hope, just try, but unexpectedly, the doorman lit the cigarette that Hain gave him and said: "Everyone is out to beg for a living, I know it's not easy for you, but, this time is not good, it's time to eat, let the property see me It's not easy to explain... Come back after dinner! ”
Hain didn't expect that the other party agreed so happily, and he would be reasonable about what people said, so he nodded and thanked him and rode away on three wheels.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Hain estimated that the time was almost up, so he rode back to the neighborhood on three wheels, and after handing the doorman a cigarette, Hain went to the garbage pool.
After picking up all the junks he could pick up, Hain rode three wheels to the guard's room, and when he got to the guard's room, Hain asked the doorman if he had a broom and that he was going to sweep around the garbage pool.
After a few polite words to him, the doorman gave him a broom, and Hain turned back to the garbage pool, but just as he was sweeping the floor, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a man from the neighborhood riding a bicycle towards the door.
Hain turned his head and saw that the man was estimated to be in his thirties, wearing a suit and a badge pinned to his chest, and Hain said in his heart: It's broken, the property!
He hurriedly straightened his waist and walked to the guard's room, walked to the guard's room, put the broom at the door, and said to the doorman: "Big brother, don't worry, I..."
The doorman was originally looking outside the community, but when Hain said this, he immediately grinned when he looked back and muttered: "What a whole is this!"
Hain hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't worry, I'll explain to him!"
The doorman said with a bitter face, "What else do you explain, you can leave quickly!"
When Hain saw that it was all like this, he said "I'm sorry", and then rode on three wheels and ran away, and he didn't go far before he heard someone shouting behind him: "You wait, don't go yet!"
Hain looked back and saw that the cyclist had caught up, and he knew that this must be the way for him to send the rags back, Hain sighed, turned the car around and rode towards the man.
When Hain and the man came face to face, Hain saw that the man's badge was written as 'Property Manager', and he hurriedly said, "I know, I'll send you back."
The manager was stunned by what Hain said, but he reacted immediately, and he said to Haien: "It's okay, this is all yours, I saw it, you cleaned it very clean, so let's do it, there are four garbage pools in this community, I'll go back and say hello to the security captain, and if you want to come over in the future, you can come over, but, that is, you have to be responsible for the sanitation of the garbage pool."
Hain never expected that the property manager was chasing him for this matter, and he was on guard in an instant.
The so-called nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief! All the neighborhoods in the city don't let him in, and today the property manager actually let him in, and he had to greet the security guard and give him the green light, which is a bit abnormal.
The manager saw that Haien's face was wrong and said: "Hey, master, I know, many communities do not allow outsiders to enter, that's the case, our community is an old community, this domestic garbage disposal has always been a problem, and they have prepared garbage bins, but the residents are used to throwing them into the garbage pool, and later the garbage pond has been removed, but the residents reacted to our property, saying that they are not used to it, no, these garbage ponds are retained, but, as soon as it rains, the drains near the garbage ponds are blocked by garbage, No, every year in the rainy season, you have to arrange a person to be in charge of the garbage pond, so I thought, since you have taken away all those plastic bags and foams, why don't you be responsible for these garbage ponds! ”
Speaking of this, he looked back at the community and said: "Again, we haven't seen the collection of rags in this city for many years, and most of the people in this community are elderly, no, we are also implementing garbage classification now, I want to try it, maybe those old men and old ladies can separate the recyclable garbage, and take this opportunity to change their habits, of course, you will take everything they give you, and if it is useless, you will take it out and throw it away, don't let you do it in vain, give you five hundred a month, do you see it!"
When Hain heard that, it was great, so he immediately agreed.
And the day he met Liu Mei, it was the third time that Haien went to that community to collect the rags, in fact, Haien didn't plan to come here that day, that was because an old house in the west of the city was demolished these days, and this demolition was full of construction waste, and there were a lot of scrap copper and rotten iron, and Haien went over there to pick up scrap iron.
That day, Hain had a lot of gains, but when he returned to Pingjiazui, he was guilty, there were more than 300 catties of scrap copper and rotten iron on the three wheels, and there was still a big wind on the way, and Hain's legs were weak when he arrived at Sixina.
Just as Sixi was settling accounts, Hain received a call from the property manager, saying that it was because of the strong wind, and the garbage was blowing everywhere, and asked him to clean it up.
After all, people are polite enough to him, so Hai En didn't say anything, and when Sixi gave him money, Hai En pedaled three wheels and went to that community.
As a result, as soon as he entered the community, Hainxin said, "Good guy, this has become a garbage dump."
This guy is rubbish everywhere, there are plastic bags hanging on the trees, the green belt is full of broken paper, and several community cleaners and guards are sweeping the garbage on the road.
And the property manager was waiting for Hain at the door, and Hain looked at it, and his face was quite anxious.
Before Hain got to the manager's side, the property manager said: "Big brother, look, the leaders of the municipal party committee came to us today to offer condolences, and they called the sanitation side just now, and they said that their garbage trucks are cleaning up the project waste at the demolition site!" You see..."
Without waiting for him to finish, Hain got out of the third round, picked up a woven bag, and said, "Then hurry up and clean up."
In this way, Hain was busy all afternoon, and the garbage alone was dumped out of more than a dozen cars, seeing that the sky was dark, the wind had stopped, and the community was cleaned up, Hain looked at the car of garbage on the three wheels, which was in the innermost garbage pond in the community, and it was also the last job of the day.
The property manager gave full recognition and praise to Hayne and his three rounds for their role in this garbage cleanup campaign, and in the end, the property manager gave Hayne a hundred dollars.
Hain was indeed a little tired from a busy afternoon, so he sat on the side of the road and lit a cigarette.
As he was pumping, a van followed an electric car, and the electric truck led the pickup truck to the door of the building next to Hayne and stopped!
Hain actually glanced at it at first and didn't care, but when the electric car stopped, Hain glanced at the people in the car again, and his heart fluttered.
The person riding the electric car was a plump woman in her thirties, in fact, she was not fat, and Hain didn't know why, the moment he saw this woman, he panicked in his heart.
Hain couldn't help but look at the woman twice, to say that this woman is actually very ordinary, whether it is clothing or appearance, but Hain has a strange feeling when he looks at this woman.
The more he thought about it, the more weird he felt, so he pinched his fingers and calculated, this calculation, Hain couldn't help but gasp, he really didn't expect to meet her here.
And just as Hain pinched his fingers to find the text, the two people in the pickup truck wearing the work clothes of a certain electric city unloaded a refrigerator from the back compartment of the pickup truck.
The woman went to the door and said, "I'll open the door for you!" As she spoke, she opened the security door at the entrance of the stairway.
However, the two people put the refrigerator on the ground but didn't move, each of them lit a cigarette, and then one of them said to Liu Mei: "Sister, you don't have an elevator, you have to pay a hundred yuan for transportation."
When the woman heard this, she immediately said, "However, when I bought the refrigerator, I clearly said that it was delivered to my door."
When the man who spoke heard the woman say this, he said to her: "The door-to-door delivery is said to have an elevator, but if you don't have an elevator, this climbing stairs is different."
As soon as Hain heard this, he stood up, walked to the three wheels, put the woven bag on it into the garbage pool, and said to himself, "Oh, what a debt of iniquity that cannot be avoided..."
