Chapter 51: Surrender of Protection Money
The clerk turned to look at Ruan Yan impatiently.
Ruan Yan didn't mind the clerk's expression, she took out the small cake in her hand with a smile, "This is the cake I made myself, try it?" ”
The clerk frowned and glanced at the cake in Ruan Yan's hand.
This small cake looks small and beautiful, the clerk hesitated, took the cake in Ruan Yan's hand, and took a bite.
The entrance of the cake was fluffy, and the sweet and creamy aroma filled the whole mouth, and the clerk ate it, and his eyes lit up, "What is this made of, so delicious." ”
Ruan Yan smiled slightly: "I was thinking about it at home." ”
"You're here then?" When the clerk saw that she came with a cake and didn't come to buy anything, it meant that she had other intentions.
After eating her cake, the clerk's attitude towards her eased a lot.
Ruan Yan said: "Is your store manager here?" I'd like to talk to your store manager. ”
The clerk's eyes widened slightly: "You want to come to our store manager?" ”
This person was dressed plainly, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he wanted to find the store manager.
Ruan Yan nodded: "I looked around here before I found your store." ”
This pastry shop is an old shop, there are not many customers who come in, and the business doesn't look very good, which just meets Ruan Yan's conditions, if it is a popular shop, it may not give Ruan Yan this opportunity.
The clerk hesitated for a moment and said, "Our store manager is not in the store now, what are you looking for the store manager?" When the store manager comes back, I'll help you convey it. ”
Hearing this, Ruan Yan shook his head and said, "No need, I'll come back next time." ”
After speaking, Ruan Yan gave all the cakes to the clerk and said with a smile: "Thank you, these are for you, if they taste good, please help me say it in front of your store manager." ”
The clerk took the cake from Ruan Yan's hand and glanced at Ruan Yan a little strangely.
This girl also looks young, and she doesn't know what to do with the store manager.
Out of the cake shop, Ruan Yan looked around again, there are few prices for making snacks around the bazaar, but there is a middle school not far from the bazaar, and there is a rolling mill to the east.
Although the rolling mill is a bit far from the bazaar, workers who want to come and go to work have to pass through the bazaar.
Therefore, it is actually the most suitable to set up a stall here to make food.
But the question arises, what to do?
As a chef, whether it is a home-cooked dish or a dish that can be served at a state banquet, Ruan Yan has it at his fingertips.
"Sell steamed buns, delicious steamed buns!"
At this moment, Ruan Yan suddenly heard a shouting voice.
When I heard the prestige, I found that it was Ah Liu and a few people shouting in the market, a few children holding boxes for selling steamed buns, and a few other children pulling walking passers-by on the road, giggling and marketing the steamed buns in their hands.
In such a situation, there are really a lot of people around to sell steamed buns.
Ruan Yan felt interesting and walked towards a few people.
The steamed buns in the box were bought empty, and several children gathered around and began to count the money from the sale of the steamed buns.
"This steamed bun sells like this?"
Ruan Yan walked over and asked aloud.
Ah Liu was sitting in the corner, full of satisfaction with the money in his hand, and when he heard the voice, he didn't raise his head: "One penny, it's sold out today, let's come back next time." ”
A penny for a bun.
Ruan Yan estimated the price in his heart.
Make something that fills your stomach, is cheap, and can make the people around you like to eat......
Ah Liu looked up and saw Gu Shilin's mother in front of them, and Ah Liu and the others were shocked.
Is she here like that?
Could it be because of yesterday's incident, this woman shouldn't have come to settle accounts with them later?
Ruan Yan saw the vigilance of Ah Liu and the others, showed a gentle smile, and explained: "Don't be afraid, I happened to come to the market today to buy something, and I happened to meet you, thinking that you are Xiaolin's friends, so I came to say hello to you." ”
Hearing such an explanation, Ah Liu's vigilance dropped.
Ruan Yan's eyes fell on the frame where they were selling steamed buns, and asked aloud, "Are you making this steamed buns yourself?" ”
"No, it was made by Ah Liu's grandfather, let's sell it at the market." The dog next to Ah Liu said out loud.
"Can I ask, how much did it cost?"
As soon as these words came out, Ah Liu and the others tightened their hands to the money, for fear that she would come to rob the money.
The vigilant appearance of these children made Ruan Yan laugh, she found a vacant seat, sat next to Ah Liu and the others, and said, "I'm an adult, how can I worry about your children's money?" ”
"Auntie recently wanted to come and try to sell food in the bazaar, but I don't know the market here, so I want to inquire."
Hearing Ruan Yan say this, Ah Liu and the others completely let down their vigilance against Ruan Yan.
Thinking that Gu Shilin said that his mother's cooking was delicious, Ah Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "If you want to come here to set up a stall, you have to go to Brother Hui in the bazaar." ”
"Brother Hui, what is he doing?"
"Brother Hui collects protection money, and the vendors here have to pay Brother Hui five yuan for protection every month."
Five bucks for protection?
Ruan Yan frowned.
As he was talking, he saw a few yellow-haired thugs not far away walking over with sticks in their hands.
Ah Liuyi saw these yellow-haired gangsters, his face changed greatly, and he instantly put away the bamboo basket, and several children scurried around as if they had seen some terrible person.
"Ah Liu!"
The yellow-haired gangster also saw Ah Liu, and shouted at Ah Liu and the others: "Stinky boy, I don't want to pay protection money, see if I don't kill you!" ”
As he spoke, he took out his shoes directly from the soles of his feet and threw them at Ah Liu's back.
Ruan Yan's eyes were straight.
Pang Yan's shoes failed to hit Ah Liu in the end, but made Ruan Yan surrounded by these gangsters.
"What is the relationship between you and Ah Liu, he hasn't paid the protection fee for a few months, I see that you guys were so happy just now, you paid the protection fee for them, right?"
It's a disaster!
Ruan Yan felt speechless.
She clasped her hands on her chest, the corners of her lips were slightly hooked, she raised her eyebrows, looked her eyes up and down at the head of Huang Mao, and said, "You are that Brother Hui, right?" ”
Brother Hui carried a stick, tilted his head and looked at Ruan Yan with his nostrils: "It's me, what's wrong?" ”
"This field, is it yours?"
It seems that he didn't expect that Ruan Yan, a delicate and weak little girl, would talk like this, which made the person named Brother Hui a little stunned, and he glanced at the little brother beside him.
Only then did he calm his face, glanced Ruan Yan up and down, and said, "Do you have something?" ”
What is the origin of this woman?
The momentum on his body is so social?
Brother Hui wondered in his heart.
saw Ruan Yan shrug his shoulders and said, "I'm fine, I'm just going to confirm if you are that Brother Hui." ”
Brother Hui: "......"
"Dead mother-in-law, are you sick, hurry up and hand over the money!"
