Bang bang bang!

The sound of slamming the door sounded.

"Dead girl, hurry up and get the money! There is no money to settle the bill! "Outside the door is Ah Qun's gambler father.

Ah Qun muttered annoyance, but still took out his wallet. But there were only a few loose tickets inside.

Chen Wusheng said: "You let them leave immediately, and I will give the money." As he spoke, he pulled out a stack of bills.

Ah Qun said: "Don't give them more, if you give it, you will lose it sooner or later." ”

Then, taking only two out of the stack of bills, he opened the door and said, "Two hundred." Not a dime more. But you take the money and settle the bill and it's gone. My friend has something to ask you. ”

Dad smiled: "My side is over, and your mother is not over yet." She also owes a lot, and she has to settle the account before it ends. ”

Ah Qun said angrily: "How can you have so much money to lose all the time!" I definitely don't have any money, or I'll go out with Ah Ping to sell it, okay? ”

Seeing what his daughter said, he said, "How do you talk, your mother and I will play small cards, and we won't go to Macau to gamble." ”

Chen Wusheng came over and asked, "How much does your wife owe?" ”

Qun Dad said: "It's only two or three hundred." ”

Chen Wusheng handed over five 100 Hong Kong dollars and said, "It's all gone, I have something to ask you." Don't ask in vain, give money. ”

Dad took the money, smiled and said, "Right away!" Right away! Then he hurriedly walked out, flipped the cards on his wife's table and said, "Stop playing!" Why don't you hurry up and greet Ah Qun's friends! ”

"You're sick, aren't you? The old lady lost a night, so I can't touch the good cards, but you give it off! What good people can Aqun's dead girl bring back! I also want my wife to say hello, you're confused, aren't you? ”

The group father leaned up and said a few words in her ear, and when the group mother heard it, she hurriedly said to a few card friends: "Everyone, I'm sorry, this game is mine." If there is an urgent matter at home, the account will be settled in the evening! ”

Dad also went over and broke up his table.

Seeing that it was quiet outside, Chen Wusheng walked out. You're welcome, I picked the most comfortable chair on the eight tablets and sat down.

"Sit down." Instead, he played the role of master. But the parents didn't dare to be dissatisfied, because Chen Wusheng had already taken out two thick stacks of Hong Kong dollars and put them on the mahjong tiles that had not been confiscated.

"What is this gentleman called?" Dad asked earnestly.

"My surname is Chen."

"Ah Ping, hurry up and pour tea for Mr. Chen!" The group dad shouted at the top of his throat. Then he smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I don't know if you have any questions for us." ”

Chen Wusheng said: "I want to know what kind of person the original owner of this building was. ”

Dad thought for a while, and wondered: "It's been many years since he died, and we didn't know him well before." ”

Chen Wusheng said: "You can say as much as you know, there is only one thing, and you can't bring your own subjective assumptions." I want the facts. ”

Dad said, "Yes, yes, yes!" We moved here in '73. At that time, the building had just been completed and was being rented out. Don't look at this house is small and old, it was already an unattainable mansion for us at that time. With the money that my mother and I earned, I never thought I could rent here. ”

"Yes, at that time, an apartment of this size, other old houses cost more than 1,000 yuan a month, and the two of us worked in the factory, which added up to 2,000 yuan of income. Spend half of it every month on renting, where is it. Unexpectedly, the rental advertisement posted in the building actually said that it was only 300 yuan a month. The mother said.

"That's the difference with the market price?" Chen Wusheng said strangely.

"We were also very strange at the time, and we thought it was a lie. If I change now, I definitely won't believe this kind of thing. But at that time, we were young, and we had just gotten married, so we were excited to have a cheap new house to live in. I was going to see what was going on first. I didn't expect what the advertisement said to be true! ”

"Yes, we also met the owner of this building for the first time that day, Mr. Li. He looked about the same age as us, in his twenties. We were all amazed that he could afford to build a building at such a young age. ”

"Hong Kong was meant to be a place of miracles. It's not the strangest thing that he's young and rich. The most important thing is that he is so kind. Take out the freshly built building and give it to the needy. ”

"There aren't many units in this building, how many people can live there?" Chen Wusheng asked.

"Now there are about 20 families. Before it was given to the Housing Department, there were more units here, maybe nearly 50 households. Later, the six floors and below were converted into shops. Drove out some people who did not meet the conditions for residence. ”

"Even if you can live in more than 50 households, the rent is so cheap, is there no one to rob it?"

"Rob! Of course grab! The queue of applicants filled the entire street, and the police were required to maintain order. ”

"You grabbed it so quickly?" Chen Wusheng said.

"When we arrived early in the morning, it was actually late. There was a long queue ahead. By the time we arrived, it was already afternoon. We almost wanted to give up in the middle. I thought it wouldn't be our turn. ”

"Yes, I didn't expect that in the end, Mr. Li felt that we met the conditions for living, and made a decision on the spot to let us sign a rental contract. And one sign is ten years. ”

"This is equivalent to giving us a new house for ten years! We were all stupid! ”

The two husbands and wives said a word, showing the excitement at that time again.

The more Chen Wusheng listened, the more curious he became: "Why did it rent to you, have you asked Mr. Li?" ”

"No, we didn't have time to be happy at the time, where would we ask so much. But then we also wondered that many of the conditions worse than ours did not rent here. It doesn't seem right just from the point of view of doing good deeds. ”

"I asked several neighbors, and they also agreed to live with Mr. Li directly. Maybe Mr. Li believes in fate more, and when he sees someone who has fallen in love, he stays and lives together. ”

"Huh? That Mr. Li also lives here? ”

"I heard so. But maybe Mr. Lee has several properties, so we rarely see him here. That's why I was a little embarrassed when you asked us about him at the beginning. We do know too little about him. ”

"Is the unit he lived in still there?"

"In. Although the Housing Department took over the building at that time, when they were about to vacate Mr. Lee's residence, they were met with a collective protest. Later, the Housing Department also compromised and kept the flat all the time. ”
