Chapter 2: A Clever Deception

Following Lu Kang for ten years, I have gone from an orphan without a father and mother to a man with a rock-like heart today.

I'm out of school.

But Lu Kang, who is the master, didn't send me away, and he didn't even come out to see me for the last time.

I don't have nostalgia, and I don't grieve.

For ten years, I haven't been to give my mother half a stick of incense.

Because Lu Kang said that when you enter his door, you must cut off the past, which is his iron order.

In the cemetery on the west side of town, I braved the 40-degree heat to pull weeds from my mother's grave little by little.

After finishing, three sticks of incense were neatly inserted, and three heads were kowtowed heavily.

Looking at the black-and-white photo of my mother on the tombstone, I apologized to her: "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't do what you asked me to promise you before leaving." But I will definitely avenge you, and I will not let go of anyone who has humiliated you. ”

I will definitely avenge my mother, and as for why I didn't plan to avenge my father, it's not that Lu Kang's words did anything for me.

I just hated my dad.

Because the reason why my mother ended up like this was caused by him.

Leaving the cemetery, I looked at my phone.

Half past five in the afternoon, June 24th.

This is the day I left the school, and it is also the day I began to stir up the storm.

Of course, I didn't rush to the station, but found the home of the former landlord, Lao Ma.

Came to a public phone booth, entered his mobile phone number, and the other party quickly picked up.

"Hey, hello, I saw the information about your house for rent on the telephone pole, two hundred a month, right?" I asked in a polite and polite tone.

"Yes, yes, two hundred a month, not including utilities, and heating in winter. If you're interested, I'll show you around tomorrow. ”

I heard the landlord's voice, and I remember the scene of that winter vividly.

My mother used the last money she had to pay me two years' rent before she died, and I was kicked out by my landlord.

It's been ten years, ten whole years, and I haven't swallowed this breath.

"No, I'm in a hurry. In this way, you can show me the house now, and if it is appropriate, I will pay the rent for half a year directly. If it's not convenient for you, I'll ask elsewhere. ”

At that time, renting a house was paid once a month, and when I heard that I was so happy to pay half a year's money, the landlord's tone changed.

"Hey, don't mind, buddy, you called me, it means that we have a fate. Where are you now? You must wait for me there, and I will go now! ”

I casually told him a street, and he said it would take twenty minutes.

Actually, I'm right across the street from his house right now.

I watched the landlord hurry downstairs and ride his 28 bike across the dirt road.

Then he picked up the TV box prepared by him and walked upstairs to his house.

Of course, instead of a TV, there are several bricks of about the same weight, wrapped in layers of black plastic bags.

A subtle scam is inseparable from a detailed preliminary investigation.

A few days ago, I had already investigated and ordered a 40-inch color TV from the landlord's house.

At that time, there were not many companies in our county that could watch 40-inch color TVs, and they all had to be ordered from the city.

If it's fast, it's a week, and if it's slow, it takes half a month to arrive, and such a valuable thing is to pay a deposit first, and the goods can only be paid when they arrive.

I knocked on the door, and the landlord's wife opened the door, a middle-aged woman in her forties, mean-looking and wearing an apron.

"Sister-in-law, I'm here to bring you a TV. When I came up just now, I met Brother Ma, and he said that I would just send it directly, come and help. ”

As soon as she heard that I was here to deliver the TV, she immediately had a happy expression on her face.

"Oh, why did you get there so soon? I've been thinking about it for more than half a month! Okay, come in, be careful, just leave it here. ”

At the command of the landlord's wife, I placed the box next to the wall.

I wiped the sweat from my head and said, "The speed of delivery mainly depends on what company in our city can get the goods, no, as soon as the goods are available, they will be delivered to you as soon as they are available." Sister-in-law, the original price of this color TV is 2,008, and the 300 yuan deposit paid by Brother Ma is removed, and the final payment of 2,005 needs to be paid now. ”

"Oh, okay, I'll take a look at the color TV first, and I'll get you the money if it's okay." The landlord's wife said very vigilantly.

This is completely in my expectation, 2,800 yuan is almost three months' salary of the landlord!

If it were me, I would inspect the goods first and then give money.

But I said to the landlord's wife: "Hey, sister-in-law, just now Brother Ma asked me to tell you that you have to wait for him to come back before you can open it." ”

"Why is that? If I don't take it apart and take a look, how can I get you money? ”

I said without changing my face: "Brother Ma said that this color TV is not as good as the big TV set in your house, so he has to install it himself." You can rest assured, if there is a problem with the TV, our manufacturer is responsible for returning and replacing the goods. But if you accidentally bump during the installation process, then you have to take responsibility for it. Brother Ma just told me that he went to collect rent and would be back soon. ”

Lu Kang said that human nature has weaknesses.

As long as you can grasp the weaknesses of the other party, you can seize the initiative.

The weakness of the old horse is greed for money, and half a year's rent cheated him out non-stop;

The weakness of the old horse's daughter-in-law is timidity, and she is afraid of hitting her head when the leaves fall, so she was frightened by my few words.

Especially the last sentence, I even said clearly what the landlord was going to do, which made her completely let go of her guard against me.

Then she took 2,500 yuan and handed it to me, and before leaving, I said, "Sister-in-law, I'm leaving." When the eldest brother comes back, you tell him that the warranty period is two and a half years, until February 9 of the following year, and call me at any time if there is a problem with the TV. ”

After saying that, I left the landlord's house with the two thousand five hundred cents.

I believe that when Lao Ma sees this box of bricks and hears this date again, he will definitely remember it.

Ten years ago, on February 9, a woman died in his rental room.

He should also have thought that the woman's son had come back for revenge.

It's just that they weren't the direct cause of my mother's suicide, so I don't have to lie to their family.

I know who my real enemy is, but I can't find him yet!

In this way, I earned my first pot of gold after I became an apprentice, and this money saved a little money, which was enough for me to spend half a year at the price at that time.

I stepped on the green train from Haixian to Haicheng, and after following Lu Kang for so many years, I know his habits.

When every orphan he raised reached the age of twenty, he would help them book a train ticket to another city.

Haicheng is not a strange city to me, and this fast-growing city also has a lot of opportunities for people like me to show their strengths.

I found my seat, only to see a woman sitting in it.

I confirmed the ticket again and again and said to her, "Hello beauty, this is my seat." ”

It's not that I'm complimenting, but she's definitely a big beauty.

The skin is white and beautiful, the lips are red and the teeth are white, the legs are slender, and the hair is black and thick on the shoulders.

She was wearing tight jeans underneath, outlining her plump figure and curling forwards and backwards, exuding a faint body fragrance on her body.

I breathed in the air, and the carriage seemed to have become unusual because of her presence.

But the beautiful woman's attitude towards me was not friendly, she frowned and said, "Originally, I also wanted a window seat, but someone else bought me the wrong ticket." Let's change seats, it's really not good, I'll give you a hundred dollars. ”
