We stayed here until late in the evening before packing up our things and driving to the nearest town.

We rested in the town for another night before heading back to Jincheng.

When I returned to the small house in Renyi Hutong again, I only felt tired to the bone.

That's what it's like to be home, and we've been out for too long this time.

There were only four of us in the team of a dozen people just now.

Not long after we came back, Lao Ma called the money in full, and I gave San'er 100,000 yuan, and he almost died of laughter.

The rest of the day was very boring, and I didn't have much business in this shop, but it was almost winter, and it was even more sparsely populated.

And I don't care about these, relying on these antiques, in fact, the income is very limited, unless I meet the kind of eye-catching seller again, I may still make a profit.

But this kind of leakage thing, I don't know how many years it will only happen once.

The only thing I care about now is Mr. Ji.

On the one hand, it is because Mr. Ji is the owner of the money, and more importantly, Mr. Ji will bring me the opportunity to take revenge.

He's half my benefactor now.

But I waited left and right, and the first wait was more than two months, and Mr. Ji still did not appear.

During this period, I was even a little anxious, and actually called Lao Ma to ask Mr. Ji why he hadn't shown up in the past few months.

This action of mine provoked Lao Ma to call me several times in a row to confirm whether I had something to hide from him.

This incident really sounded the alarm bell for me, and I went directly to the yard and poured a large basin of cold water on myself to calm myself down.

If you can't bear it, you will make a big plan.

It turned out to be calm, but at the cost of a week-long severe cold.

Finally, there are still three days left before the end of the year, and I finally gave up the idea of waiting, and honestly prepared the New Year's goods and prepared red envelopes.

It's the New Year.

But what I didn't expect was that on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, Zhang Baosan actually came to my shop!

It was a bit gloomy on this day, and I was closing my eyes in the rocking chair when I heard the old horse shouting outside, "Gensheng! Get out, Bao Sanye has come to condole! ”

This sound really startled me, when I was doing chores in other shops before, I did hear that Zhang Baosan would go to various branches to express condolences when the New Year was approaching.

But those things before always felt like they had nothing to do with me, but now that I'm the hall master, the object of this condolence has suddenly become the protagonist.

In fact, I'm not stage fright, but because I can't get rid of the green rhino thing, and now that the master of the family has come to the door, my heart is still a little flustered.

But since we came back from the territory, these three treasures have not been undisturbed, and the death of the green rhino is like a stone sinking into the sea, and no one has mentioned it again.

Although this seems abnormal, Zhang Baosan can't suspect that I have a problem, so I brought someone over now, right?

It shouldn't be, that is to say, his visit this time is really a simple condolence.

That's when Tony suddenly came up to me and slapped me the shoulder.

My heart is quietly settled, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and I Zhang Gensheng has dealt with a lot of big scenes in my life.

Let's go, go and meet the people of Jincheng.

I'm ashamed to say that I haven't seen Zhang Baosan's true face of Lushan in front of me for so long since I came to Sanbaozhai, because every time we, the hall masters, went to meet him, he always hid behind a big screen.

It's only today that I can really meet him.

I pushed the door open and walked out with a pretense of openness.

When I looked up, I saw a group of people standing at the door, and now in the front and middle was a lean hunchbacked old man.

Looking at the position where this person is standing, it should be Zhang Baosan.

The old man's hair was almost gone, and his face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were indeed very sharp and bright.

This kind of ordinary old man can actually be Zhang Baosan, a man of the hour who trembles when he stomps his feet in Jincheng?

This is really unseemly.

At this time, he was surrounded by everyone like the stars holding the moon.

I looked back and saw the black bear standing behind Zhang Baosan.

I

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

I felt a surge of blood.

But I can't make any movement now, because Zhang Baosan's eyes have already fallen on me.

You can't move, you can't move, you can't make a mistake.

I closed my eyes, and then slowly opened them, already in a normal mall smile.

The old horse was already squeezing his eyebrows at me behind Zhang Baosan, probably complaining about why Bao Sanye had been standing for so long, and I still hadn't come over to say hello.

I took a big step forward and arched my hand at Zhang Baosan: "Yo, rare guest, why are you here in person, come into the house, it's cold outside, oops, look at you like this, I'm shining!" ”

The old horse muttered dissatisfiedly behind Zhang Baosan: "Sycophant! ”

Zhang Baosan saw that my mouth was sweet, and he also showed an elder-like smile and followed me into the house.

And then there's a very boring politeness, which is omitted here.

While I was talking, I still didn't control my eyes, and looked at the black bear from time to time.

But when I came back to my senses, I found that Zhang Baosan was actually looking straight at me.

I couldn't help but tense up, and a layer of sweat broke out on my back.

Zhang Baosan asked with a smile, "Why have you been watching the black bear?" ”

I swallowed my saliva, and then replied with a smile: "Oh, that's right, when I first arrived in Yangliu Ancient Town, I got into trouble, and it was Brother Black Bear who helped me settle it at that time, which allowed me to establish myself here." It's been so long, and I haven't thanked him in person. ”

The black bear glanced at me and just said indifferently: "No need, I am acting on orders." ”

In just a few words, my heart was a little cold.

This man looked very reckless and reckless, and I mentally classified him with the green rhino.

It's actually easier to deal with such vulgar people.

But just now I had a conversation with Zhang Baosan, and the black bear answered just right.

Calm, not greedy, neither humble nor arrogant.

So if he is such a person, I am afraid that my revenge will not be so easy to revenge......

Zhang Baosan smiled and said, "They are all their own brothers." What is not thankful. But then again, it would be nice if the green rhino was there this time, and he was with me at this time of the day. ”

My expression froze instantly, and a layer of sweat appeared on my back, but now I was afraid that my expression would show flaws, so I had to say: "Bao Sanye, please punish me, it's all because I didn't take a good look at Brother Green Rhino, if I paid more attention when we retreated at that time, Brother Green Rhino wouldn't have drowned......"

I deliberately said that the green rhino drowning was just to clean myself up, ostensibly to ask Zhang Baosan to punish him, but in fact it was an expression that this matter actually had nothing to do with me.

Zhang Baosan sighed and said, "What are you doing, people can't be resurrected after death, and I'm not old and stubborn, I can't blame you for this." It's just that this person is old and always likes to nag. That's it, for the New Year, don't say these bad words. Have you done your New Year's goods? ”

I saw that Zhang Baosan had no reason to continue talking about the Green Rhino incident, so I hurriedly got off the donkey down the slope and said, "Okay, okay, it's done, you see that you are still thinking about us." ”

Zhang Baosan just smiled and nodded, and then drank a cup of tea to himself.

He put the teacup down, got up, and then a small guy behind him handed over a red envelope very sensibly.

Zhang Baosan said: "This is a small meaning, every shop has it, don't shirk." ”

I said something like "how embarrassing is this", and took the red envelope, and roughly estimated the thickness, which should be about twenty sheets.

After sending Zhang Baosan away, I hurriedly entered the house and closed the door, and suddenly lay on the rocking chair, a little afraid.

For other shops, it may be condolences, but for me, it's simply a check.

Tony didn't know when he reappeared next to me and asked, "Is that the black bear?" ”

I nodded and asked, "yes, what do you think?" ”

Tony thought for a moment and said, "It's not easy to solve. ”

I opened my eyes, and sure enough, Tony felt the same way as me.

"Do you have any plans?"

"Count

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Scratch? ”

I smiled and said, "What can I do with this, I can only see if there is a chance to go on a mission with this guy after the New Year...... But I'm afraid now, if Zhang Baosan becomes suspicious of me, I won't be allowed to participate in the business of this gold leaf wooden box in the future, so there will be no chance. ”

Tony smiled and said, "Then you can rest assured, whether you take over the gold leaf wooden box or not, it's not Zhang Baosan who has the final say, and if you bring the gold leaf wooden box back from that Grandma Huang's cave, Mr. Ji will already identify you." ”

"Also, Jincheng is in this circle, and now except for me Zhang Gensheng, there are really few people who dare to take over Mr. Ji's business."

Since my business will not be lost, there must be a chance for revenge.

I was in a better mood all of a sudden, and shouted outside the door, "Hei San'er! Black San'er! ”

San'er entered the door with his head drooped, and the first sentence was: "Shopkeeper, my name is Bai San'er......"

"Hei San'er, it's going to be the New Year soon, the shopkeeper is in a good mood today, I'm giving you a holiday, hurry up and pack up your things and go home to accompany my mother for the New Year."

"It's Bai San'er!"

I scratched my head, I really can't break your tendons in this life.

San'er continued: "My mother said, Boss Zhang is a good boss, but Boss Zhang's life is too miserable, if I leave again, there will be no popularity in the store, my mother asked me to spend the New Year with you here this year." ”

I'm so moved, I have to sigh again, can't you really turn around and talk about this tendon?

"Okay, let's stay. Celebrate the New Year with me, the shopkeeper with a miserable background. ”

Before I finished speaking, San'er turned around and went out to sweep the yard, and I couldn't hear that I was teasing him.

……

Finally came to Chinese New Year's Eve, the sky was drifting like goose feathers, this San'er stomped his feet angrily, scolding that he had just swept the ground yesterday, and this time he was busy in vain.

I sat down in a rocking chair to the door of the house early that day.

When it was almost noon, Zhang Genhuo asked very gossipy: "Brother, you have been sitting here for a long time, what are you looking at?" ”

"He's not looking at anything, he's waiting for someone," Tony said. ”

"Wait for someone? Waiting for whom? ”

"You'll find out in a moment."

Finally, in the afternoon, a graceful figure pushed the door in.

She still has neat short hair and wears a light gray coat, which is very cute.

I jumped up from the rocking chair excitedly and shouted, "Weiyang, you're here!" Come inside! ”

Weiyang seemed a little embarrassed, and walked into the house with two boxes of gifts.

God knows how happy I am!

Weiyang still looked a little cramped after entering the door, which was seriously inconsistent with her usual cold-blooded killer appearance.

I asked, "What's wrong with you, Weiyang?" ”

Weiyang said: "I ...... Haven't experienced this, so don't know what to do, or, you assign me some tasks. ”

I froze and asked tentatively, "You mean you...... Didn't celebrate the New Year? ”

Weiyang nodded sincerely, and I couldn't help but feel a sour feeling in my heart again.

I said slightly apologetically: "Weiyang, I really want to take you for a full year, but we rough guys can't do anything, and all we can eat is the cooked food we prepared before...... However, we have already prepared the dumpling filling, and we will make dumplings later. ”

Weiyang nodded again, and she actually smiled sweetly.

But dumplings, for the first time in my life, I made my own, and the result was that a pot of dumplings turned into leek dough soup.

As a last resort, you can only have one pot per person, and even the soup and water will be regarded as dumplings.

I went back to the house, took out four boxes, divided them among the four of them, and said, "New Year's gift!" ”

Zhang Genhuo happily asked, "What is what?" ”

"The three of you are game consoles, and Weiyang is the latest mobile phone."

The room burst into cheers, and Weiyang was stunned by the box I had carefully wrapped.

She looked up sharply and looked straight at me, tears glistening in her eyes.

The New Year's bell rang at this moment, the ceremonial flowers outside exploded, we toasted, drank the two pots in the cup, and shouted in unison: "Happy New Year!" ”
