179: Ruffian
"Collect the money, collect the money, hurry up and hand over the money."
Xin'er heard a voice coming and looked up, and it turned out that there was a group of people not far away, asking people to give money.
Xin'er has never encountered such a thing twice here, so she couldn't help but look at her brother on the side and asked in a low voice, "Brother, what are they doing?" ”
"I don't know, I haven't encountered it before."
Youyi was also puzzled at this time, he had never met these people so many times before.
Hearing this, Xin'er moved to the stall next to him and asked the stall owner.
"Auntie, who are they, why do those people have to give them money?"
Xin'er saw that the stall owners in the place where the group of people passed by paid them money, and couldn't help but think: Is this a protection fee?
Just as she was thinking about it, the stall owner's words confirmed her guess.
"They are the tyrants on this street, you are new here, don't resist when they come to ask for money in a while, just give them the money, they will protect you if anything happens to you."
“……”
It turns out that this is really the case for protection money.
"Auntie, how much do they have to charge?"
"Look at the place, the place will be more wide, but I don't think you will occupy much wide, at most five to ten cents."
"So much?"
This is a bit too much for Xin'er, Shiwen has to sell as many vegetables as they can earn.
"Don't be too much, if you don't give it, you won't be able to sell vegetables today, don't say that you go to other places to sell, there are people who collect money in other places, and they may collect more, listen to the aunt, they will give them the money when they come."
The aunt seemed to know what she was thinking, and before she could say it, she said.
"Oh, okay, I see, thank you, auntie."
"It's fine."
At this moment, she didn't say a word back to the stall, and the person who collected the money went to the stall next to them, and the aunt who was talking to her just now gave the money to those people with a smile.
"Hey, it's your turn."
The money next to it was collected, and it immediately arrived at their stall.
"Big brother, who are you?"
Although Xin'er had already inquired with the aunt next to her just now, she still pretended to be ignorant and looked at them and asked.
"Collect money, this piece is our Hu Ye's territory, you have to give money if you want to set up a stall here, hurry up, don't talk nonsense, we have to collect other people's."
"Then big brother, will you protect us after we pay the money?"
"Of course, as long as you pay the money, no one will trouble you on our Hu Ye's territory."
"That's right, so how much do we have to give?"
When the man heard her words, he looked at the place where they set up their stalls, and the space they occupied was not wide, and more of the dishes were still in the back basket, and the total seemed to be the width of two back baskets, mainly because their dishes were placed on the board on the back basket.
"Little Liu, hurry up, what are you doing?"
Not far away, a man shouted impatiently and loudly.
"Eh, second brother, I'm coming, here are two newcomers, right away, right away."
The person they received money from them had a good attitude towards this person, and even stammered a little.
"Just them?"
The second brother came over and looked at Xin'er, and they asked the person named Xiaoliu.
"Yes, just them." Xiao Liu replied respectfully.
"I've seen you, you came here to set up a stall and confiscate your money before, why, here again."
The second brother looked at Youyi for a long time and spoke.
"I don't know you......"
Youyi thought about it in his heart for a while, but he didn't expect the image of this second brother, looked at him and said in a low voice.
"I've seen you, you've put it on many occasions, I can't let you go this time, look at the size of your stall, Sanwen."
The second brother looked at it and said a number.
"This big brother, can you be less, we haven't sold it yet." Xin'er tried to bargain on the sidelines.
"Is this your sister?"
"Well, my sister."
Youyi pulled Xin'er behind him, and moved two steps under his feet, blocking Xin'er behind him.
"Heh, Sanwen money, hurry up and pay it, we have to collect other stalls."
The second brother laughed when he saw Youyi's actions, and he didn't have less money, urging them to give money.
Youyi paused, touched it from his arms for a long time, took out the three coins and handed it to him, and Xin'er didn't say anything more.
"In the future, we will collect the money at about this time every day, remember to prepare the money in advance."
"Okay, we got it."
The two didn't look at them again, took the money and moved on to the next stall.
"Xin'er, I know you feel sorry for money, but don't do it in the future, how dangerous it is, it seems that they are not easy to mess with, you know?"
After the people were far away, Youyi said to his heart seriously and seriously.
"Brother, I know, I won't do this again in the future."
Xin'er looked at her brother's worried face, and consciously knew that what she just said was wrong, and replied seriously.
"Well, you don't care about these things, and my brother is here, you know?"
"Brother, I know, I won't do this again in the future."
"It's good to know."
That's it, and then more and more people buy vegetables, and their vegetables are getting fewer and fewer, and the best ones are still tender pumpkins.
The pumpkins they sell are carefully selected by Xin'er, and they are not only tender and beautiful.
Naturally, there were many people who bought the pumpkins that looked good, and the pumpkins I brought were soon gone.
In the end, the most left is beans, there are many people selling beans on the street, although they also sell a lot of beans, but they take more, and there are naturally more leftovers.
It's not too early, and she wants to go to the seed shop in the county to see if there are any fresh seeds, since she has decided to sell vegetables, she still wants to have a variety of types, preferably if they have the kind that others don't have, and it will definitely be very good to sell when the time comes.
"Brother, I want to go to the seed shop to have a look, or you stay here, and I'll come here to find you in a while."
"Do you want to go now, or you wait for a while, I'll go with you when the beans are sold out, I don't feel at ease if you go alone."
"Brother, I'm so old, I'll just go to the seed shop and have a look, and I won't go anywhere else, so don't worry.
You see, it's not too early, and if you wait until you're done selling out, you don't know how late it will be to go with me, we can't go home too late. ”
Youyi knew that she was worried about the pigs at home, and he was also worried, and after thinking about it, he felt that most of his heart was still reliable, so he agreed to let her go by himself.
"Then you be careful, don't run around early, come back early."
"Brother, I know, I'll come back when I buy something, you can rest assured."
The money for selling vegetables is all on Xin'er, originally she was going to leave some for Youyi, but Youyi said that since she wanted to buy something, she would take it all, and he wouldn't need anything at this time, so Xin'er took it all.
