Chapter 35: Changing money

I remembered that the old man used to say that when he opened a paper shop and a shroud shop, there would be unclean things to patronize, and he would give money, but not real money, but the dark currency.

I'm not too worried about a man harming me now, because if he's willing to spend money on things, it's certainly not because he's harming me. But the money given is not real, after Uncle Wu comes back, I will receive a few dark coins, and I will definitely be reprimanded, and it will be difficult for me to explain it at that time.

Maybe Uncle Wu will think that I embezzled money, and then fooled him with the money, after all, I have fooled the third uncle before, and I have a criminal record, and I was good at gambling before, I don't know if Uncle Wu will believe me.

Thinking about these things, I lay in bed, turned on the light, and fell asleep. I had a strange dream at night, I dreamed that Li Ying came to me, saying that she wanted to marry me, but how could I marry a ghost, and then I was scared and wanted to run. But Li Ying cried in the back, so I relented a little, and then went back to her.

At this moment, I suddenly woke up, and looked at the sky outside, it was already bright, and I suddenly got up and prepared to open the door of the store. Suddenly, I saw a lot of people standing in the moat outside the store, and the fire brigade was still there, and I felt that something was wrong and ran towards it.

I heard from the people around me that someone drowned in the moat last night, it was a man in his forties, I heard that it was a relationship dispute, and he was quarreling with a woman, and he didn't know how, so he fell into the river, it was night, there was no one around, when he knew, the person could not be found, and in the daytime, he found the cold body.

I saw the paramedic carrying him towards the shore, and I took a curious look at the man, exactly the same as the one who bought the boat last night! I felt a chill run down my back. No wonder he asked when he bought the boat whether it was sturdy or not.

Now I suddenly understand something. That man was dead last night, and it was a ghost who came here to buy a boat! I went back to the store and felt a chill down my back thinking about what happened last night.

Fortunately, during the day, people came and went, and it was very lively, and a few things were sold. In the afternoon, Uncle Wu came. Seeing him come, I felt a lot more relaxed.

Then I told Uncle Wu about what happened last night, I thought Uncle Wu wouldn't believe it, but he frowned slightly, thoughtfully, and then asked, "Did the man say anything else?" ”

I said, "I didn't say anything, I just came to buy a paper boat, but it wasn't money, it was a dark coin!" "I thought Uncle Wu would be a little angry, after all, after selling two things, the money received was actually a dark coin. He tied these paper boats, which was very time-consuming, and I have seen him tie paper, a paper boat like this, which is enough to be busy for most of the day.

But Uncle Wu said: "Put away the dark coin, someone will exchange it for you at that time, if someone comes to exchange it, you will exchange it for him, don't ask anything else." ”

I promised, remembering Uncle Wu's words, here, is my temporary resting place, so I also try my best to do a good job, and I also want to reform myself, after all, I have done a lot of things before, which has affected the third uncle and Uncle Wu.

Uncle Wu said that he would stay in the store for a few days in the past two days, I was very happy, with Uncle Wu here, I was not too worried, I asked about the condition of the third uncle, Uncle Wu told me that the third uncle has been much better, the same as before.

I'm very relieved that the third uncle is okay.

Uncle Wu went to the yard behind the building to tie paper, the two boats that had been tied have been sold, Uncle Wu was ready to hurry up to make two more boats, otherwise if someone wanted to buy it, there would be no goods, and a business would be missed.

I was selling goods in front, and Uncle Wu was tying paper in the back, there was nothing strange about this day, the man who fell into the river has been salvaged, and the river has returned to its former tranquility.

At night, I felt that the lights in the house began to flicker and flicker as they had been yesterday, and I felt that something was wrong, and a person came in.

Wearing glasses, polite, wearing clothes that look like the Republic of China era, he doesn't look like a person from this era, he still has a notebook in his hand, and after he came in, he said, "Can you exchange money?" ”

When I heard that, I said, "Yes." "Uncle Wu told me before, if someone comes to exchange money, they will exchange it, and don't say much else.

I took out a few dark coins from the drawer, carefully placed them on the table, and then watched the man's reaction, and the man looked at it, and then he took out six hundred coins, put them on the table, and then took six dark coins and opened them.

I was a little surprised to see it from the side, it was the first time in my life that I encountered such a thing, and someone really came to redeem it. I got the money, and then looked carefully, this time I was sure that it was right, put the money on the table, I saw if it would become a dark coin, and after waiting for a while, it didn't become a dark coin.

At this time, Uncle Wu came in, and I told Uncle Wu what had just happened. He nodded and said, "Well, that's right, put the money away." I nodded in agreement. I said curiously to Uncle Wu: "There is really someone who comes to exchange money, is this person a little stupid?" ”

As soon as I finished speaking, Uncle Wu hurriedly motioned to me to be quiet, "Don't talk nonsense!" It wasn't a human at all who just came! When I heard this, I was a little curious, but I was also mentally prepared, because when he came in, the lights in the room were flashing.

I asked Uncle Wu, "Who is that person and why did he come to collect the coins?" Uncle Wu said, "Don't ask more, just exchange money." ”

Since Uncle Wu refused to tell me, there must be a reason for him, so I didn't ask much about it, and then I asked Uncle Wu another thing, "Why is it that every time something unclean comes, the lights in the house will flicker and flicker." ”
