The fat man stood up suddenly, pointed at Lao Hu's nose and shouted, "What are you doing!" It's not yours, someone sent it to your home? Let me tell you, I live in this village anyway, and now that you rely on my account, I will block the entrance of the village and make it impossible for you to leave the village! ”

Lao Hu's face turned green when he heard this, and he said hesitantly: "My mother-in-law must go out at noon, if she doesn't go out......"

The black fat man roared violently: "Pay back!" ”

Lao Hu's second half of the sentence couldn't be said after all, he looked at the crazy woman cowering in the corner, the expression on his face was anxious and aggrieved.

Originally, I was too lazy to care about this bad thing, but when I saw that the crazy woman was so frightened that I shrunk into a ball, I really felt sorry for her, so I asked: "How much does Lao Hu owe you?" ”

The fat black man posed in a "six" hand shape: "This number." ”

I couldn't help frowning: "Make it clear!" ”

He added, "Six thousand." ”

In 07 years, there was no Alipay and WeChat, and the purchase of things was either by card or cash, so at that time people went out of the house, and the purse was usually bulging.

I took out my wallet and looked at it, there were 5,000 yuan in it, and there were still a few hundred yuan left, so I turned around and shouted out the door: "Ergou, do you have 1,000 yuan?" ”

As soon as Li Huaishan heard this, he knew what I was going to do, and immediately rushed in from outside and handed over a thousand yuan to me.

As I took the money, I raised my chin towards the door, "Get the refrigerator in." ”

Li Huaishan didn't say anything, nodded and went out.

I turned my face to the fat black man, pointed out 6,000 yuan, and said to him, "I helped him pay off Lao Hu's debt." ”

As I spoke, Lao Hu stood aside and looked at me, with a very complicated expression on his face.

The black fat man took the money in my hand, let the person behind him check the authenticity, and then showed a smile to me: "Count the pairs." ”

He patted Lao Hu on the shoulder again and said to Lao Hu: "It's good to borrow and repay, it's not difficult to borrow again, when you are short of money in the future, come to me, anyway, as long as it doesn't exceed 10,000, I can lend you as much as I can." That's nothing, I'll go first, and take your wife to my house for tea another day. ”

After saying that, he wanted to leave, and I immediately reached out to stop him.

He subconsciously grabbed my wrist and tried to push my arm aside, but after adding force several times in a row, he found that he couldn't shake me at all.

Just looking at his size, he is much stronger than me, but in terms of strength, he is several levels worse than Li Huaishan.

Seeing that he couldn't push me, the fat man seemed a little shocked in his heart, he withdrew his hand, turned his head to stare at me, but his mouth never spoke.

I also withdrew my arm, smiled at him, and said, "Are you from this village?" ”

He probably saw that I was more amiable, and a smile appeared on his face: "I've lived here for ten years, isn't it?" ”

I nodded, puffed a cigarette from the cigarette case and handed it to him, "I have something I want to ask you, can I talk alone?" ”

He looked a little hesitant, looked at me, and then turned his head sideways to look out of the door, until Li Huaishan came in with the refrigerator, he nodded: "If you pay back the money, you are friends, and it's okay to chat." ”

I don't know where this guy is from, the Mandarin accent and the use of some words are very strange, sometimes I feel like he is from Chongqing, but sometimes his Mandarin has a little Northeast accent.

I went out first, and when he came out, he asked for an iron rod.

When I saw him come out with a stick, I frowned and asked him, "What are you doing here?" ”

He grinned at me: "The rivers and lakes are sinister, you have to guard against it." ”

To put it bluntly, I'm afraid that I'll get into trouble with him.

He walked up to me with a stick, and a man with nunchucks stood in the doorway, looking at us with a wary look.

I didn't think much about it, but said to the black fat man, "For 6,000 yuan, do you want to make such a big battle?" ”

The black fat man sighed and poured bitter water at me: "Six thousand is a lot, don't look at me like this, in fact, it's not easy for me." I'm lending money here, it's a small business, and a lot of people borrow money and run away, but they can't find it. At the end of the year, I went to the court every once in a while, and after suing this and that, the court will handle the case with more money for you, and the court will handle it for you with less money...... If you want Lao Hu like this, we can only ask for it ourselves. ”

I said, "If you borrow money like yours, can you still go to court and sue the creditor?" ”

The fat man grinned and said, "This is a legal private loan. ”

I raised my chin at the stick in his hand: "You broke into someone's house with a stick, which is also legal?" ”

"Actually, we don't dare to hit people, we just scare and scare Lao Hu." As the fat man spoke, he kept grinning: "If you hit someone, you will have to bear criminal responsibility." ”

"Isn't there criminal liability for trespassing into private houses? If you rush to someone's house with so many people, you are also violating the criminal law. ”

"We didn't break in, Lao Hu opened the door and put us in. Oh, I know the law, I don't dare to break into people's homes, when we come to the door to ask for money, we keep slamming the door outside, and the people inside can't stand it, so many open the door and let us in. ”

Yes, these people are old fritters, and I can't talk to him about the law here.

Seeing that I couldn't continue to talk like this, I changed the subject: "Do you often lose cars in the village?" ”

Hearing me say this, the fat man hurriedly waved his hand: "Heaven and earth conscience, the loss of the car has nothing to do with us." What we do is borrow, we don't steal or sell stolen goods. ”

I saw that he was nervous, and I felt that something was wrong, and then asked him, "Do you know who did it?" ”

He still waved his hand desperately: "I don't know, how can I know?" If you lose your car, you can't look for me, you should find the police uncle. ”

I asked, "Has anyone ever called the police for losing their car?" ”

The fat man was stunned for a moment before saying, "I don't know." ”

What about, isn't it? How could a local snake like you not know that there was a gang of thieves living on the other side of the steel-framed house? If a police officer enters the village, they enter the village with their front feet, and you can hear the wind before they even step in.

At the mention of losing the car, I felt that he had become a little cowardly, as if he was very jealous of the gang of car thieves in the village.

Seeing him like this, I didn't bother to talk to him too much, so I asked him directly: "Is the warehouse haunted?" ”

Hearing my words, the fat man was trembling on the spot.

When he was done, he moved his eyes again, his gaze swept over me, and he looked at me back and forth several times.

I didn't open my mouth, so I let him do a lot.

It was a long time before he leaned in front of me, lowered his voice and asked, "What the hell are you doing?" ”

I said, "I'm a tenant of Lao Hu's family. ”

The fat man shook his head: "No, you're not an ordinary tenant, you...... It's not like anyone I've seen before. Besides, there are a lot of places to live in the village, why do you want to live in the poorest old Hu's house? ”

I smiled: "I don't know anyone else, but the whole village knows Lao Hu." ”

The fat man still shook his head: "You don't look like a person with no money, why don't you live in a hotel, you have to live in Lao Hu's house?" ”

Land snakes like him have a common characteristic, that is, their eyes are particularly poisonous, and at such times, if I talk too much, it will show my feet, so it is better not to say anything.

I stared into his eyes, without saying a word, and he stared into mine as if to see some clues in my eyes.

Of course, I couldn't tell him what I was doing, he wanted to guess, and even if he did, it was nothing, as long as I didn't admit it.

If you let people outside the trade know that you are a warlock, it will often cause some unnecessary trouble.

After looking at each other for a while, the fat man didn't know if he was weak or what's wrong, so he took the initiative to move his gaze to the side. I didn't think I had anything to talk to him about, so I decided to go back to the house. As soon as he turned around, before he could take the first step, the fat man suddenly whispered: "There is really something wrong with the storeroom." ”

I immediately looked back at him and said, "What's wrong?" ”

The fat man hesitated for a moment, then glanced vigilantly at both sides of the village road before he approached me and said, "A few guys who live in that place, maybe ...... Probably not alive anymore. ”

I frowned and asked him to speak clearly.

The fat man said that the group of young people came to the village half a year ago, there were many of them, and they all looked strange, the villagers did not believe them, and naturally they were not willing to rent a house to them, but these people were like Wang Ba who ate the scales, and they were determined to live in the village, and then they did not know how to contact the owner of the shoe store, and rented the steel frame house in the village at a very low price.

The owner of this so-called shoe shop used to be the village party secretary a few years ago, and after he stepped down from the position of branch secretary, he started a leather shoe business, and he built the steel frame house in the village for stock. It's just that his luck is not very good, he hasn't done a few decent businesses for more than two years, and many of the goods stored in the warehouse have been rotted by the dampness, and then he has no choice, so he emptied the inventory in the warehouse at a low price and switched to other businesses, and the warehouse in the village has been idle since then.

The fat man said that the shoe store owner has a very special way of doing business, he saves an entire warehouse of leather shoes without orders at all, and then takes his shoes to various physical shoe stores to sell, let people sell their shoes, and then share with themselves. And the most incomprehensible thing is that the leather shoes he stored in the warehouse are all outdated styles that were obsolete five or six years ago.

This is business, and it is obviously a corruption of money.

The fat man said that this is nothing, the strangest thing is that when the owner of the shoe store cleaned up the inventory at a low price, someone really collected it, and even the broken shoes that were rotted by the moisture were also taken away.
