Step Down, Let Me Come!

Chapter 29: 029 Make a bet

Views:

Gangsters like this man are used to seeing all kinds of people. They have perfected their control over people's hearts through trial and error. They can tell at a glance whether this person is easy to mess with and how to control him. A simple and innocent girl like this one is the most soft-hearted.

This kind of soft-heartedness can be coerced by morality.

The more generously he expressed that it didn't matter if he "delayed work" and that he would "wait" with the young lady for "safety", the more guilty the young lady would feel. Her sense of trust would increase, and she would let go of her guard that had arisen in an unfamiliar environment and fall into the trap.

Just as the man expected.

The young lady lowered her eyes and asked him timidly, "Is it really okay?"

The man sat down next to Shen Tang.

He deliberately stretched out his feet, exposing his toes that were covered with black mud and frostbitten, so that Chen Tang could see his badly worn straw sandals. He said cheerfully and generously, "It's okay. At most, the shopkeeper will deduct a few copper coins from you. If that young man hadn't seen you go over, he would have come over too."

Chen Tang's expression changed slightly, and his heart was hesitant, as if he was struggling with his conscience. The man saw this and was secretly delighted.

Why does he dare to say that

Because he knew Qishan wouldn’t come back so soon!

Don't worry about your lies being exposed.

He kept his composure and silently counted to "fifteen". The young lady who had been sitting on the stool stood up and said softly, "Since Yuanliang asked you to find me, we should go and meet him as soon as possible. If we are late, not only will your work be delayed, but he will also scold me... Please lead the way."

Success!

The man was pleased with himself, and said hurriedly, "This is what I should do. It's no trouble, no trouble. I'm sorry, young lady."

"Young lady, let's go this way." The man pointed to the direction Qi Shan had left before. While pretending to lead the way, he took the motorcycle rope from Chen Tang and said, "Fanghua Inn is a little way from here. Do you want to ride it, young lady?"

Throughout the whole process, the man behaved very properly and in a measured way, which invisibly increased Chen Tang's trust in his identity as a "helper at Fanghua Inn". As expected, Chen Tang did not doubt him and climbed onto the back of the motorcycle with great effort and clumsiness. The man glanced at the motorcycle and chatted with Chen Tang while holding the rope: "This doesn't look like a horse?"

The docile young lady answered every question.

"Moto is a mule."

"Mule?"

The man wondered how much the mule would sell for.

Although it is a mule and not a horse, this mule called "Motorcycle" is good-looking, snow-white, and as tall as an average adult man. It looks expensive. If I find a channel to sell it, I might be able to get a high price.

At this time, the man was walking in front with his motorcycle, showing only his back to Chen Tang. Naturally, he was not afraid of her seeing his expression at this moment, and the smug greed on his face was almost overflowing. Seeing this, the vendors who had been secretly concerned about the situation here sighed and muttered - some people are looking for death and it is really impossible to stop them.

This young lady is doomed if she falls into the hands of such a thug.

There was a butcher's shop two doors away from the tavern.

When the butcher saw Chen Tang foolishly leaving with the gangsters, his expression changed several times. He gritted his teeth, threw the boning knife on the chopping board, and picked up another butcher knife. Before he stepped out of the butcher shop, he was stopped by his elderly parents who worked in the shop and winked at him fiercely.

The butcher did not struggle, he just watched Chen Tang's back gradually shrink into a small ball, and finally turned into a long sigh.

"What a sin!" He wiped his face with his hands stained with meat oil, suppressed his urge to meddle in other people's business, and cursed again, "What a rotten world!"

I don’t know whether I was scolding that gangster or myself.

After adjusting his mindset, he returned to the butcher shop and continued to work.

The customer who came to buy something suddenly said.

"That young man will be fine."

The butcher was startled: "What?"

The guest repeated with a smile.

"That young man will be fine, but the one who deceived others is in danger of his life."

The butcher opened his eyes wide in surprise, still holding the knife in his hand, and gestured angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, old man?"

The guest was not afraid, and said calmly with a smile: "Why not make a bet?"

The butcher was slightly relieved when he heard the customer say that Chen Tang was fine, but then he thought the customer was talking nonsense.

What little man

The person who was taken away was clearly a pretty young lady.

He snorted in dissatisfaction, "You old pervert, your eyes are dull, your brain is muddled, you just tell lies to deceive people, you can't even tell whether it's a man or a woman. You said you want to gamble, then how do you gamble?"

Guest: "That young man will be back safely in half an hour. If I win, you will take me into the water today."

The butcher agreed without thinking.

It's just a few pounds of unwanted offal, so it's not a big gamble.

He was familiar with this customer, a kitchen servant hired by Yuehua Tower. Every time he came, he would buy some unwanted offal. The butcher noticed that he was different from the other people in Yuehua Tower, as he did not have the slightest bit of servility or fawning attitude. Instead, he looked more like a scholar, with an indescribable elegance. He was very fond of him and would give him more offal every time he weighed it.

I came here as usual today, but I didn't expect you to talk nonsense.

The butcher said, "I am going to win?"

Customer: "I'll buy an extra pound of offal."

The butcher said angrily, "If I sell one more pound of this offal, how much more money can I make? Okay, let's gamble!"

After a while, the butcher cut half a pound of broken bones, wrapped them in lotus leaves, and put them together with the offal. He pointed his finger at the butcher's eucalyptus and said, "If the person can come back, I'll give you this half a pound as well."

Although there is not much meat in the broken bones, they can still make for stewing meat.

The customer was so thin that he was almost skin and bones. The butcher felt a little soft-hearted and sincerely hoped that the customer would win and the young lady would be safe. This would be a good deed for him and would make him feel better.

The guest crossed his arms and bowed: "Thank you."

The butcher muttered, "This action is quite realistic."

Where is Yuehua Tower

A place where men and women seek pleasure.

This guest said he was a helper doing rough work in the kitchen, but he was a slave bought by Yuehua Tower, or to put it bluntly, the lowest of the lowest classes. Such a person imitated the style of a scholar, and was often ridiculed, and the butcher also thought he was arrogant.

But the butcher didn't laugh.

Just because the guests are really nice.

It's comfortable to talk to him.

The butcher waited anxiously for half an hour, looking in the direction where Chen Tang and the others disappeared from time to time, and asked the customer: "Old man, why did you say that was a young man just now? It was clearly a girl."

The customer didn't take the butcher's impolite address to heart at all, but smiled and pointed to his waist.

The butcher was puzzled: "What's wrong? Is your waist hurting?"

The guest said: "Wen Xin Hua Zheng."

The butcher was stunned: "What?"

Customer: "He has a Wenxin seal. Although he is not as good as an ordinary warrior, he can deal with an ordinary person without any problem."

Butcher:"… "

As an ordinary person, even if he had never seen the "Wenxin Huaya", he had heard of it and naturally knew what it meant to own it.

"Why didn't I see it?"

The butcher recalled that he only remembered that handsome face.

The guest said, "That Wenxin monogram is colorless and transparent like crystal. If you don't pay close attention, it will be easily overlooked."

Because of the Wenxin Wudan, it is now popular for men to wear a monogram or accessories similar to a tiger seal when going out. It is difficult to distinguish between ordinary monograms and Wenxin monograms, and it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish them at the first time.
