5. Ghosts in the dark

The ghost san'er withdrew from the courtyard after receiving the order. As he walked, he thought: Rob? This thing is very easy to do, two people who are helpless, living in a remote courtyard, going in late at night, and getting it done in minutes. However, with his small body, against the man with a beautiful face, it is estimated that he will be killed to the ground first. Suddenly, he thought of someone.

At dawn the next day, Ghost San'er touched the door of Boss Mo's house and buttoned the door knocker. Boss Mo scolded and wrapped himself in a coat, walked out of the small courtyard and opened the door. Unexpectedly, it was the ghost San'er standing at the door. He got up with a look on his face and asked sullenly, "Why are you doing so early?" ”

Ghost San'er thought about the big things in his heart, and didn't care about Boss Mo's attitude, sneakily leaned into Boss Mo's ear and said, "I want to do you a favor!" ”

Boss Mo dodged back, pushed away the ghost San'er, and said solemnly: "Last time, you said that you were helping me clear the inventory in the warehouse, but after taking my goods, I didn't see any money back." Tricking me again this time? I'm a small family, don't worry about my scattered money! After saying that, he planned to close the door and go back to the house to continue sleeping.

Ghost San'er grabbed Boss Mo's sleeve and hurriedly shouted: "Boss Mo, Brother Mo, Master Mo!" It was my fault last time, but this time it's really wrong. ”

Boss Mo turned his head, looked at Ghost San'er and raised his chin, and motioned for him to continue. Ghost San'er took a step forward and leaned into Boss Mo's ear and whispered. Boss Mo's expression was shocked, and he pushed away Ghost San'er and said, "You go quickly, you!" I'm not going to do that! ”

Ghost San'er smiled weirdly and said, "Boss Mo, think about it!" I'll take my leave! ”

Boss Mo looked at the back of Ghost San'er who disappeared in a hurry, closed the door thoughtfully, and walked back to the house. Ghost San'er walked out of the alley and laughed secretly, Boss Mo would definitely agree to his request.

The desert wind blows wildly, flying sand and rocks, covering the sky and the sun.

Lin Xiangdi and Yu Yao sat in a low hut, and several oil lamps in the house were placed in different places, and the hut was bright. Lin Xiangdi sat on a small wooden bench and polished the bronze mirror in his hand. Yu Yao sat beside him, inlaid the handle of the bronze mirror with fake gems bought from the vendor. She didn't stop what she was doing, and said to Lin Xiangdi with a smile: "Old Lin, how long do you think our deceitful little bronze mirror can be sold?" ”

Lin Xiangdi smiled and said: "How long can we sell it, if we are found one day, we will sell it in another city." ”

Yu Yao said: "It's really knowledge that changes fate!" The principle of a simple concave mirror makes us make a lot of money. ”

Lin Xiangdi said with a smile: "Thanks to your idea and your perfect sales psychology, otherwise we wouldn't be able to sell so much." ”

The two of them were talking and laughing in the house, but they didn't notice a sneaky figure eavesdropping outside the door, and after a moment they staggered and disappeared into the wind and sand.

In the rouge shop, Boss Mo is anxiously waiting for the ghost San'er to find out the news. Not long after, the ghost San'er came back disgraced. Boss Mo hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?" ”

Ghost San'er wiped the wind and sand all over his face with his sleeve, but said to Boss Mo with a wicked smile on his face: "Don't worry, don't worry. Give me water to drink first. Boss Mo glanced at Ghost San'er with disgust, hurriedly walked to the back and poured a bowl of water, put it on the small table, and said impatiently: "Drink!" ”

The wind and sand got into the hair, ears, and noses, and I couldn't get it out, but today the ghost San'er was in a good mood, and sat on the chair slowly and said, "Take advantage of the strong wind and sand, let's do it tonight." What do you think? ”

Boss Mo thought about it for a long time, took Ghost San'er's hand and said, "Then you have to say it first, if something really happens, you have to ensure that your uncle protects us!" ”

The corners of Ghost San'er's mouth raised a wicked smile and said, "I promise it's no problem!" ”

In the evening, it gets darker and darker. The wind and sand showed no signs of abating, and Lin Xiangdi raised his hand to grind the blood blisters and said, "Yaoyao, rest." How many did you do today? ”

Yu Yao was already exhausted and lay on the small kang in the corner of the house. said weakly to Lin Xiangdi: "There are more than a dozen of them." Lao Lin, sleep, I'm really sleepy. ”

Lin Xiangdi put the things in his hand into the corner of the wall, wiped his hands, and asked softly, "Yaoyao, is there still iodine wine?" Yu Yao pointed to the two large travel bags in the corner of the house and said, "You rummaged through my bag, there seems to be a little bit in it." What happened to you? Hands worn out again? As she spoke, she turned up from the kang and looked at Lin Xiangdi who was rummaging in the corner of the house.

He rummaged in his bag for a long time and didn't find iodine wine, silently pulled the zipper, walked to the edge of the kang, touched Yu Yao's hair and said, "It's okay, it's a small problem." ”

Yu Yao let out a long sigh and said, "Hey! The life of the ancients was really hard. ”

Lin Xiangdi smiled, didn't answer again, took off his coat, and lay on the kang. Yu Yao got into his arms, rested his head on Lin Xiangdi's shoulder, and wrapped his right hand tightly around his waist. Lin Xiangdi also reached out to hug Yu Yao and kissed her forehead. The two hugged each other and slept together.

In the darkness, two black-faced men took advantage of the wind to quietly climb the wall and climb into the small courtyard. The two eavesdropped at the door for a long time, the slightly shorter man nodded slightly to the slightly chubby man, and was about to make a move when the door was pushed open with a bang. Lin Xiangdi rushed out of the hut, wrapped only a jacket, and hurried to the small hut in the north of the courtyard. The two were stunned, and ran to another hut in a hurry, until Lin Xiangdi, who finished untying his hands, hurried back to the hut with bare legs, pressed the door with a wooden pole, and then fell asleep.

The two masked men didn't dare to sneak out again until there was no movement in the other hut. The two of them listened to the door for a long time, nodded to each other, and were ready to do it!

The short man came to the door with small steps, and pushed with his hand, once, twice, three times. The door does not move. The short man turned his head to look at the fat man aggrievedly, the fat man glanced at him with disgust, pointed outside, and the two climbed out of the low wall of the small courtyard obscenely, and the fat man also fell and squatted because of his inflexible skills.

The two of them were caught in the wind and walked briskly back to the rouge shop in the bazaar.

Taking off the mask, Boss Mo said to Ghost San'er, who was sitting on the chair with his head down, in disgust: "Look at it, the great opportunity was missed like this." Do you know? It's the same as doing business, once you miss the best opportunity, it's hard to wait for another opportunity. ”

Ghost San'er also complained: "Who knew that the door couldn't be opened? Dilapidated house, not even a big window. Besides, if it's the woman who comes out, won't we get it? ”

Boss Mo said impatiently: "You go back first, this matter will be discussed later!" ”

After dawn, someone pushed open the door of Ghost San'er and shouted loudly: "Ghost San'er! Ghost San'er! I'm looking for you! ”

Ghost San'er stretched out half of his head from the quilt and asked sleepily, "Who?" ”

The man walked quickly to the bed, lifted the quilt of the ghost San'er, and shouted in his ear: "The master is looking for you!" Hurry up! ”

The skinny ghost San'er rolled out of bed with a bone, got dressed quickly, and ran to the master's mansion with the comers. The man looked back at the grim-looking ghost San'er and said, "What? What's wrong? ”

Ghost San'er glared at the man and said, "Shut up, you!" The man didn't care, he smiled, and didn't pay attention to him.

The wind has stopped, and the clear blue sky is back again. Yu Yao stretched out her waist in the yard, stretching her arms and kicking in the sun. She was in a good mood and shouted: "Lao Lin, come out and do radio exercises!" ”

Lin Xiangdi walked out of the hut with his head down, looked at Yu Yao dotingly and said, "Yaoyao, let's not make a bronze mirror today, let's go to Uncle Li's house to have a look." ”

Yu Yao said: "When we first arrived here, thanks to Uncle Li's family, otherwise we wouldn't be alive today." Do you remember? At first, we thought that Uncle Li was a group performer, pretending to be stupid and teasing us. ”

Lin Xiangdi laughed, "Yes, I escaped death and came out of the desert, thanks to Uncle Li, who gave us a bowl of water, a fruit, and a full meal." We learned that now that we have made money, it is time to honor his old man. ”

Yu Yao pursed her lips and said with a smile: "I don't know if Aunt Li will be so afraid of us." At the thought of this, both of them burst out laughing.

Lin Xiangdi took out some money taels from his bag and said to Yu Yao, "Do you think you can take out these hands?" ”

Yu Yao stretched out his head and looked at it in his hand and said, "Take more, anyway, it's easier for us to make money than Uncle Li." How much can he sell for that fruit? ”

Suddenly, someone outside the door shouted, "Is there anyone in the house?" ”

The two were stunned for a moment, and asked in unison, "Who?" ”

Boss Mo smiled and peeked his head out of the door. Lin Xiangdi saw that he was the owner of the rouge shop in the bazaar, although he had not communicated, but he was more or less half a peer, and the two of them had just arrived here, and they had also robbed other people's business, so they were somewhat embarrassed. Lin Xiangdi smiled and said, "Yo, Boss Mo, right?" Come in. ”

Boss Mo stepped into the hut and looked at the quaint hut. I thought: These two people don't seem to make much money!

Yu Yao generously brought Boss Mo a cup of hot tea. The aroma is tangy. Boss Mo looked carefully, this tea was exquisite that he had never seen before, the bones were handsome, and the tea fragrance was overflowing. So, Wen Crepe said: "A cup is light and yellow, and the cup is fragrant with spring breeze." What kind of tea is this? ”

Yu Yao replied casually: "Big red robe." "Boss Mo has never heard of this kind of tea, but he still forced a smile and an expression that I understand.

Lin Xiangdi sat down opposite Boss Mo and asked with a smile: "I don't know if Boss Mo is so expensive, what do you have to do?" ”

Boss Mo took a sip of tea, well, it's so fragrant. He smiled and said to Lin Xiangdi: "Little brother, don't be surprised, I don't know your surname." ”

Lin Xiangdi said: "Don't be surnamed Lin, Boss Mo doesn't dislike calling me Xiaolin." ”

Boss Mo nodded and said, "Boss Lin, there are not many people who do rouge trading in this Cixian City, and it is the first one in Mo Ruyu, but I didn't expect you to rob half of my country as a little foreigner when you first came here." I'm here today to learn from you. ”

Lin Xiangdi smiled awkwardly and said, "Boss Mo, I'm really sorry." We don't really want to steal your business, but isn't that how this business started? But you are a businessman, and there is no comparison with itinerant hawkers like us, so you can rest assured that we will never be able to steal your business. ”

Boss Mo also laughed and said, "Little brother, you really misunderstand my brother. I'm just here today to talk to you about cooperation, isn't that how business works? Interests are evenly soaked. Boss Lin, enjoy your face and talk about it at home? ”
