Chapter 533: Sabre rattling
Zhao Dabao was overjoyed, looked at the woman and the old man in front of him, and smiled at them excitedly: "Sister-in-law, old gentleman, do you have anything to do, do you need my help?" He looked very nervous, holding the flat shoulder with his left hand, and rubbing the rope hanging on the shoulder of the flat shoulder with his right hand. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"But no, we're looking for you everywhere!" the woman smiled and pointed to the old man who came with her, and said to him, "This is Mr. Xu, he has some important matters, and he needs you to help!"
When Zhao Dabao heard this, he smiled at them even more, and the crow's feet on the corners of his eyes turned into stormy waves on the ocean in his smile, layer upon layer.
"Oh, oh, okay, okay!" he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, standing on the edge of the railing, still looking at the two young men on the opposite river, the man in a brown cotton robe on the right, couldn't help but look back at the three people who were talking behind him.
Once, when the young man looked back, the old man standing beside the woman happened to meet his gaze, and at that moment, a serious look passed over the old man's face, and his whole face fell silent at once. He looked at Zhao Dabao, his expression was serious, but there was kindness in his eyes.
"Mr. Zhao, how much money can you earn in a day?" the old man suddenly asked him.
Zhao Dabao laughed, the lines on his face jumped with joy, and the small and round teeth reflected a dazzling luster in the sun, "This is maybe!" His eyes looked at the ground shyly, and then at the sides, but he was always timid to meet the other party's face. "Sometimes it's better, sometimes it's worse," he said. ”
"How much better?" asked the old man again. And, the two men who had been standing on the edge of the railing, looking at the brown man in the river opposite, looked back at the back.
Therefore, the old man deliberately glanced at the two young men on the edge of the stone railing in front of him. And the young man, who glanced back at them from time to time, was no more than a young man of medium stature, and from behind he was not as stout and stocky as his companion in the black robe. At the back of the neckline of his brown cotton robe, a distinct bag bulged, and it looked as if there was a sarcoma in the socket of the man's neck, which propped up the clothes.
The young man in green clothes beside him looked much thicker at the waist, and his head was about the same size as the young man who looked back from time to time, except that his head looked larger from the back than the head of an ordinary person. It's almost the size of a normal person wearing a hood. However, the man was much more calm than his companion, and he always looked at the other side without looking back once.
"When it's better, it's usually there, more than a dozen dollars!" Zhao Dabao raised his face this time and looked at the old man's face seriously.
The old man nodded. And Li Shanyang's mother-in-law had no intention of leaving at all, and she was still looking forward to this old man dressed up by the fortune teller Xu Quan. Wait for him to see if he will have any new good things to make money and let her do it.
The old man seemed to have guessed her thoughts, and he smiled shallowly at the woman, "Sister-in-law, you go and get busy, I can talk to Brother Zhao Dabao alone now." ”
"Oh, okay, okay, okay, then you talk slowly!" Li Shanyang's mother-in-law looked at the old man with an embarrassed face and smiled, and glanced at Zhao Dabao again, "Okay, okay, then I'll go back." After that, if you have anything to do, just say hello!" she smiled at the old man, and turned to walk towards the bridge in front of her.
When she walked five or six steps away, her face suddenly sank, as if she was cursing the old man in her heart for being stingy and not giving her some money to carry the way.
At this moment, Zhao Dabao was pondering in his heart, what would this old man ask him to do? How much would he be paid! After seeing the woman leave, the old man glanced at the two people standing on the railing opposite, and then said to Zhao Dabao: "Brother, I have a big box, please go and help me move it, is it convenient?"
"Where's it? Convenient, convenient!" Zhao Dabao said.
"Right at the entrance to the street. The old man pointed to the direction he had just come from, and said to Zhao Dabao, "The box is too heavy, can you help me move to the other side of the river, and go to that inn?" The old man pointed to the inn on the other side of the river, with a vertical signboard of "Tianhe Inn".
"Yes, yes, no problem!"
"How much does it cost?" asked the old man, looking at him. At this time, the two young men standing beside the stone railing, with their backs to them, were quietly exchanging heads and saying a few words.
"This ...... As much as you want!" Zhao Dabao said shyly and smiled at the old man.
When the old man heard him say this, and saw him so shy, he could not help nodding approvingly, "Then how can it be done!" said the old man, "we have agreed on how much it will cost to move a box, and it will be better for you not to be busy later, and the price will be unfair, which is not good." ”
Zhao Dabao still smiled at the old man innocently, "Is the box at the entrance of this street?" he pointed to the front of the street and asked the old man, who nodded.
Therefore, Zhao Dabao once again with a cautious expression, visually measured the distance between the entrance in front of the street and the inn across the river. In the end, he smiled innocently, looked at the old man and said, "You are an old man, help you move the box, this little way, what money do you want! Let's go, I'll help you move it!"
The old man was stunned for a moment, and sighed solemnly towards Zhao Dabao, "Okay, then you will have to work." ”
So, Zhao Dabao picked up the flat burden and prepared to walk in the direction that the old man said.
"Can't go!" Suddenly, the two young men standing on the edge of the railing turned around and said.
These two young men are fathead fish and knife. And the person who spoke just now was Xiao Dao, his voice that seemed to float out of a cave was as cold and strange as his expression at the moment, his round face, his eyes were like ice, and a third of his black eyeballs were covered by a single eyelid, revealing a murderous aura. It's easy to think of the crocodile when it was napping, its half-open and half-closed turquoise eyes, which shone with an evil light, and that's what it looked like.
His hands hung down in his sleeves, and he couldn't see his fingers, just like the golden statue of the Bodhisattva in the temple, whose hands were broken by those mischievous children, and his whole expression completely revealed the calm and serenity of a puppet.
However, the young man in a brown cotton robe next to him, the fathead fish, was completely opposite to his expression and temperament. The angular cheeks of the fathead fish, from the cheekbones to the corners of the mouth, are very clear, as clear as a scar on the face. His thin, upturned mouth now pouted into a prominent cock butt shape, a striking sign of his anger.
Not only that, the murderous gaze in his eyes was distinct, by no means as cold and silent as the gaze of the knife at the moment, but his gaze was like countless sharp embroidery needles flying out of it, which made the person who met his eyes completely injured. And, the moment he turned around, he pulled out the steel knife hidden in the socket of the back of his neck.
His intention was so straightforward, he wanted to kill this old man who was talking to Zhao Dabao.
