Chapter 594: Looking for Trouble
"Don't worry, tell me what's going on?
Who is it that beat you? ”
Xu Shiyan didn't even look at the broken cow hair on the ground, but gently comforted Feng Yue and Feng Yuan.
Feng Yuan was young, and he was probably scared just now.
I saw Xu Shiyan at this time, and I was crying there.
It was Feng Yue, after all, who was there and stable, so he told Xu Shiyan what happened before and after.
Ji Tongzhong took people to a remote forest farm for several days, and basically all of them were almost harvested.
So I didn't run out today, and sat at the Songjiang River acquisition point.
Ji Tongzhong's purchase of Niu Maoguang was higher, and there were many people who came to sell the goods.
At half-past nine o'clock, a group of people came, brought in six or seven sacks, and said that they would sell the goods to the buyers.
A big customer came, and Ji Tongzhong received him warmly.
As a result, when I opened the sack and inspected the goods, I found that the sack was not Niu Maoguang at all, but a sweet potato stalk.
The sweet potato that the locals say is the sweet potato, and the sweet potato stalk is naturally the petiole and seedling of the sweet potato.
This thing is made into sections, and it is also scalded with boiling water and dried, which is quite similar to cow hair.
So many people use it to fake and pretend to be Niu Maoguang.
Dried cow hair is twenty or thirty yuan a catty, and this sweet potato stalk is not worth anything at all.
Many people don't dare to be too blatant, and they are all mixed in.
Ten catties mixed with one catty, you can't see anything when you mix them together, and you can sell them for more money.
Of course, ordinary people can't do this method, it's all those second-class dealers who do it.
Otherwise, what is the difference in the price enough? That's how most people mix it in.
After all, Ji Tongzhong has been fiddling with mountain goods for several years, and he still has eyesight.
Besides, these people are too blatant, there is no cow hair there and there is no big hair, it is purely sweet potato stalks.
How can Ji Tongzhong accept such a dish?
So they politely told the other party that the grade of this dish was too high, and they couldn't accept it, and they couldn't give such a high price.
As a result, the other party did not give up, so he had to sell to them, and drove away all the people who were queuing up to sell goods outside.
This seems to be here to stir things up, and Ji Tongzhong is not easy to mess with.
Relying on the first five or six people of his own, he will reason with others.
Who would have thought that more than a dozen people suddenly rushed in from outside, punching and kicking Ji Tongzhong and the others.
He also poured out all the cattle and hair Guang that he bought this morning and trampled them to pieces, and smashed all the doors and windows of the house.
"Before leaving, they also warned us, saying that they would immediately withdraw the purchase point and not allow them to collect cattle and wool in the Songjiang River in the future.
Otherwise, we'll be killed next time. Feng Yuan said crying over there.
Feng Yue saw his brother's virtue, and angrily raised his foot and kicked him.
"Look at the way you look like a diaper, what a coward, you haven't been hit a few times, as for it?"
Xu Shiyan raised his hand and stopped Feng Yue.
"Look at you, how old is he? Why are you kicking him without anything? ”
Feng Yuan is the seventh elder of the Feng family, the youngest one, only twenty this year, and he is also the most favored one at home.
Feng Yuan didn't go through these things, he was scared, isn't that normal?
"How's you two? Do you need to go to the hospital? ”
Xu Shiyan looked at the two of them a few times, and felt that there should be nothing wrong with them, but they were probably slapped and kicked a few times.
"Third brother, we're fine, we don't have to go to the hospital."
In fact, Ji Tongzhong and the others didn't have anything to do, the other party was mainly scaring people, and they didn't think about breaking people.
Xu Shiyan nodded, "In that case, you two don't have to guard here."
Put the scales away and lock the door and go home.
You don't have to worry about the rest, with me. ”
Xu Shiyan patted Feng Yue on the shoulder, and then came out of the acquisition point.
"Let's go to the place across the street from the bureau building."
Xu Shiyan got back into the car, asked the driver to drive, and went straight to the opposite side of the bureau building, that is, the vacant land.
Nowadays, there are relatively few entertainment projects, except for movie theaters, that is, open-air billiard halls that have become popular this year.
On the edge of the open space opposite the bureau building, I don't know who built a big shed.
There was a billiards case in the shed, which attracted many people to play billiards.
Of course, most of these people are idle people in society, that is, the so-called ruffians.
Xu Shiyan asked people to drive straight to this side, got off the car at the place, and walked over unhurriedly.
The boys were all seventeen, eighteen, or twenty, smoking cigarettes and wearing toad glasses.
Some people wear electronic watches on their wrists, and their hair is very long, and it is as hot as a bird's nest.
Suddenly, a man in his thirties, wearing a white shirt, black pants, short hair, and no toad glasses, came neat and clean.
These billiards, including the owner of the open-air billiards hall, were stunned.
What is this for? It can't be taxed, right?
That's not right, the tax collector should wear a uniform, and he has already found a relationship, so he doesn't have to pay it.
"Yo, which uncle is this? Why did you come to this place? What for? ”
A few young boys came around and asked angrily.
Xu Shiyan raised his hand, unfastened the cufflinks of his shirt sleeves, and pulled the sleeves up twice.
"What are you doing? What can you do in the billiards hall? Play billiards. With that, he found a case where no one was around.
The billiard tables of this era are different from those of later generations, they are very simple, and many of them are made directly by carpenters.
At the bottom is a wooden shelf, the case above is a standard size, and at the bottom of the six holes is a cloth pocket with a ball.
The top is a whole piece of red or green flannel, standing on the wood with white latex and wrapping around the edges.
The elastic part of the edge of the case, some with a V-belt, and some with a rubber hose.
Nail it to the case first, then wrap it in a large flannel, and finally nail the flannel cloth with a small nail.
This case should be that the person who played before has just left, and the boss hasn't had time to clean it up yet.
Xu Shiyan didn't speak, so he took out the balls one by one from the cloth pocket.
Put the white balls aside, the other fifteen balls, and the black balls in the middle, piled up in a triangle.
Generally, people will use a triangular box to place the ball directly and push it to the designated position.
Xu Shiyan didn't use a wooden frame, and directly leaned the ball against the side of the case.
After placing all the balls, with a slight force of your hand, the triangle of fifteen balls rolls forward as a whole.
When it came to the tee-off position, Xu Shiyan gently blocked it with his two arms, and the ball stopped without any chaos.
With this hand, he directly suppressed the group of young people around him.
You must know that this open-air billiards hall has just been popular for a short time, and even the boss of the billiards case may not be able to do this.
No one thought about it, how did this person who doesn't look like he can play billiards, but he actually played such a hand.
"Okay, it's pretty good, it looks like a master.
What, I'm here to play a game with you, whoever loses will pay? ”
A kid next to him couldn't help it, and spoke first.
Xu Shiyan raised his eyes and looked at the other party, and smiled, "You, you are not qualified enough."
Who's going to run errands? brought Cao Libin to me, and said that there was a person surnamed Xu and asked him to play billiards. ”
