Nie Tongsheng stared at Xu Damao's face and thought to himself: 'This boy is up to something!'
His face remained calm, and the hand holding the lantern lifted the lantern from the ground until it was lifted in front of Xu Damao's face.
Xu Damao also leaned forward respectfully, his eyes constantly wandering on Nie Tongsheng's face and hands.
Then Nie Tongsheng tapped his index finger three times on the wooden stick holding the lantern.
When Xu Damao over there saw this, he stretched out his hands under the lantern, blocked his right hand with his left hand, and made a gesture with his right hand that only two people could see.
Nie Tongsheng's pupils shrank, and he said sideways, "Third brother, come over and take a look at the stall!"
A tall, thin young man walked out of the shadows behind and sat in front of the stall.
Nie Tongsheng waved to Xu Damao, then turned and walked towards the alley behind.
"Third brother, I'm going over."
Xu Damao complimented, and then followed him unsteadily. He was very afraid of the guys here.
How could it be possible to hide what's going on in the Forty-Nine City?
Nowadays, this black market is openly placed at the back door, but no one has ever come to investigate. The big boss in this black market has some connections. If he wants to find someone to do something, he can only spend money to serve him.
The two came to an alley where they couldn't see anything.
Xu Damao hurriedly grabbed a handful in front of him, and then stuffed the money and wine into his hands.
Nie Tongsheng did not rush to pick up the things, but said calmly: "If you have something to do, tell me first. I am not in a hurry to take your things. Let's follow the rules. If I can't handle it, I will only get three points."
"Hey! Yes!"
Xu Damao responded and said quickly: "Brother, I want to ask you about someone. I wonder if you know anything about this?"
Nie Tongsheng said indifferently: "As long as he is here, I will definitely know, but if he comes from somewhere else, that is not necessarily the case."
Xu Damao perked up after hearing the words, "He came here a month ago and lived in the same courtyard as me. I once saw him kill two people with a gun!"
Nie Tongsheng tensed up and asked repeatedly: "What is this man's name?"
"Yi Chuanzong!" Xu Damao roared in a low voice.
Nie Tongsheng's expression suddenly changed, and his face was still twitching. This name was familiar to him, and the injury on his face was caused by Yi Chuanzong a few days ago.
They had hesitated before to retaliate, but ordinary petty quarrels could not deal with Yi Chuanzong. If it was serious, the matter would be serious, so they tolerated it.
Didn't you expect that Yi Chuanzong was still a ruthless man? The guy killed two people!
Xu Damao didn't get a response for a long time, so he hurriedly asked: "Brother Nie, do you know this person?"
Nie Tongsheng also frowned and glanced at Xu Damao with twinkling eyes. He really didn't want to have a conflict with Yi Chuanzong if it was unnecessary. If the conflict was small, they would definitely suffer. If the conflict was big, no one could escape.
Especially after he determined that Yi Chuanzong was a ruthless character, he didn't want to conflict with Yi Chuanzong anymore. They both walked half way, and they didn't block their way of making money. There was no need to offend anyone!
But it was impossible for him not to make the money in front of him. Xu Damao was also generous. He only paid ten yuan for it. It was just a few words. He still wanted to make this money.
Just when Xu Damao was so anxious that he was about to speak out again, Nie Tongsheng spoke.
"I've seen this man. He knows the One-Eyed Dragon. I've seen them exchange passwords. As for the others, you should know more than me, but I have to make it clear to you after I take your money. The One-Eyed Dragon is sold here.
The gun for three years! Only that one was gone!"
Xu Damao suddenly felt cold all over.
He survived in a daze last time, and he didn't dare to recall the last time the two met in an alley.
Now that he wanted to take revenge on Yi Chuanzong, he carefully recalled what happened that day. He had not heard any gunshots before, and there were no blood stains on the ground at that time. The two people were probably fine.
To be cautious, he came to the black market to ask if it was someone on the street, but he didn't expect it to be true!
Then how can he take revenge?
If he really tried his best, of course he wouldn't dare. Fear is the true reflection of his heart.
It was difficult to see the face clearly in the dark alley, and Xu Damao could not see the joking expression on Nie Tongsheng's face.
"Brother, our deal is done this time!"
Hearing this reminder, Xu Damao came back to his senses in an instant and said continuously: "It's done! It's done! This time, I'm going to trouble Brother Nie!"
He handed over the money secretly.
Nie Tongsheng reached out and touched it, confirmed the face value, and nodded with satisfaction, "Listen to my brother, live your life honestly and don't make yourself uncomfortable."
"Yes! Brother Nie is right, I'm just asking, don't get into other people's hands." Xu Damao responded repeatedly.
Now the fire in his heart just went away.
‘Isn’t it just a woman? I have played with many women. A wealthy lady like Lou Xiao’e will serve anyone who wants to serve her.’
"It's good to know. It's dark all night and you are so nervous!"
"You haven't gotten this wine yet!"
"You pay and I give you the letter. This is the deal."
Nie Tongsheng refused directly. A transaction is a transaction. There is no such thing as gift-giving in the black market, unless it is a big fortune like gold.
If you just want to have a relationship with someone over a bottle of wine, it's not worth offending someone.
Xu Damao didn't say anything. He also knew that the wine could not be delivered.
Nie Tongsheng warned him before that he meant to distance himself.
What he said secretly was that he really wanted to have a chance with Yi Chuanzong, and that had nothing to do with Nie Tongsheng.
…
Early the next morning.
After Yi Chuanzong had breakfast, he and his uncle were getting ready to go to work. As soon as they left the gate of the courtyard, a tall and thin young man came up to them.
His eyes were on Yi Chuanzong, and he seemed a little afraid, "You are Yi Chuanzong, right?"
Yi Chuanzong frowned slightly. He didn't recognize the person in front of him. He asked softly: "What's the matter with you?"
The tall and thin young man looked at the old man beside him, then turned to look at Yi Chuanzong again, "I have something I want to talk to you about alone. Is it convenient for you here?"
The uncle's face was a little cautious. The round-faced man in front of him was good at everything and spoke politely, but he didn't look like a decent person with a bruised nose and face, which made him feel a little disgusted.
Yi Chuanzong looked at his body and body. After looking at it again, he still felt a little strange. He really didn't know this person, so what did he want to see him for?
"Uncle, how about I just listen here?"
It was broad daylight, so the elder was relieved and just warned: "Follow me soon." He didn't want Yi Chuanzong to be with these people who seemed to be dishonest.
Yi Chuanzong watched the first man slowly walking away. He asked the man in front of him: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
The tall and thin young man looked around for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Come this way with me and I'll tell you."
Yi Chuanzong was impatient, but he followed him anyway. When the two came to the corner of the alley, he asked again: "You should say it this time, right?"
The tall and thin young man said mysteriously: "Master Zong, someone was checking you out on the black market yesterday?"
Yi Chuanzong's eyes narrowed. When he heard this title, he thought of the black market, and the following words set off alarm bells in his heart!
"who?"
The tall and thin young man looked up and down, seeming to be considering the possibility of asking for oil and water, but thinking of what happened that day, he did not dare to say anything more.
"Xu Damao! That Xu Damao in your yard is asking about you on the black market!"
Yi Chuanzong frowned and moved slightly to block the tall, thin young man's escape route.
Today is the day Lou Xiao'e and Xu Damao divorce, he doesn't want any surprises!
"What did you ask about? What did you say?"
The corners of the tall and thin young man's mouth began to twitch after seeing Yi Chuanzong's actions. Sure enough, he knew that this was not a good job, and he wanted to use violence, right?
He did not dare to hesitate and quickly told what happened last night.
After hearing this, Yi Chuanzong felt a little relieved. In just one night, Damao's courage was restored, and there would be no accidents in this matter.
Then, Yi Chuanzong looked at the young man in front of him, Gu Shu, with twinkling eyes.
These guys in the black market are really not as simple as protecting the market. Is it normal for Xu Damao to ask about his affairs?
At that time, he dropped a gun on the street. Would he go to the black market to inquire about this kind of thing?
There is also the one-eyed dragon, the one-eyed middle-aged man who carries the black box in the black market. The black market is also familiar with this person!
How is it that it is a market with frequent transactions? The entire Forty-Nine City has a permanent population of about three million, and there are one hundred black markets in the Forty-Nine City?
This is definitely not the case.
The black market at the back door is still relatively large. Even if not everyone goes to the black market, one tenth is more than 3,000 people.
Snakes have snake paths, rats have rat paths.
If he wants to live a good life here, he will inevitably come into contact with these people. These people are also very useful.
Yi Chuanzong shook his head gently, "To be honest, the news you gave me this time will not have any impact on me. Since I let him go, I am not afraid that he will know."
The tall and thin young man was blocked at the end of the wall and dared to say harsh words, "Yes, yes! You are right, Brother Nie asked me to inform you!"
Yi Chuanzong laughed, then took out five yuan from his pocket and handed it over.
"Although it's of little value this time, I accept Brother Nie's kindness, and I'll pay for it next time! Next time if you have any news about me or in my yard, tell me!"
"Don't worry, brothers will definitely keep an eye on you."
The tall and thin young man looked happy and quickly reached out to take it. No one had trouble with the money.
Normally, the profit in the black market is not much, but what Xu Damao asked about yesterday was so outrageous that he was so anxious that he was willing to be ripped off.
Normal life is just a trivial matter, nothing worthy of special inquiry. This business is just incidental, mainly to control the black market transactions.
Yi Chuanzong just nodded to him and left on his bicycle.
In the future, when he earns more money, his life will be improved. This money will not go to waste, and it will be easy to exchange for some tickets or something in the future.
On the way to the factory, Yi Chuanzong was a little absent-minded. The factory started work at eight o'clock, and Lou Xiao'e and Lou Xiao'e should be at the Civil Affairs Bureau.
The uncle asked with some confusion: "Why do I feel that your state is a little strange? What does that person want to see you for?"
Yi Chuanzong came back to his senses in an instant, chuckled, and said, "What can I do? Master, you are overthinking, I'm going to work!"
"Work harder!"
"knew!"
The uncle stood there and frowned. The more he did this, the more he felt a little weird. Yi Chuanzong was a little absent-minded today, so he didn't think much about it. He decided to ask more questions in detail after get off work.
Over there, Yi Chuanzong came to the Eryi workshop in a daze.
In fact, he hadn't slept well since last night. Yesterday, he and Lou Xiao'e had confirmed their relationship and then directly discussed getting married.
This kind of thing was a bit too sudden and too fast for him to react. When Lou Xiao'e came to him, he was really confused.
This is how marriage works at this time. After a few simple meetings and at most a few dates, the two will get married.
The woman he liked in his previous life was going to marry him, and now she was getting her wish. The life of a hot bed with a wife and children was about to come, and he was excited but also unavoidably a little uneasy.
"Master Yi!"
Yi Chuanzong came to his senses again, "Ah?"
"Master Yi, what's wrong with you? I called several times, but you didn't respond?" Gong Zhoujie asked helplessly.
Yi Chuanzong said casually: "I'm fine, what can you do?"
Gong Zhoujie said with a troubled expression: "Haven't you heard?"
Yi Chuanzong was confused when asked, "What did I hear?"
Gong Zhoujie then whispered: "Yesterday Han Xiang went to dig a manure pit. You should know this, right?"
Yi Chuanzong raised his eyebrows and said with interest: "I know, what happened next? Did Han Xian fall into the cesspool?"
Gong Zhoujie said in surprise: "Did you know? He did fall into the manure pit and had cramps in it. Fortunately, two people worked together. The workers above discovered it immediately and rescued him in the end. He should still be there now.
How about the hospital? How about I work with you today?"
Han Xiang was fine yesterday, so he didn't come over, but he also paid attention here.
Liu Yuan looked like he was working over there. He worked slowly and spent a long time on two pieces. He was just learning skills. Yi Chuanzong was there to guide him. He also wanted to do this job!
Yi Chuanzong looked strange. He had thought that Han Xiang might be exhausted. This was all intentional. If he dared to go to the police station to sue him, how could he easily spare that guy?
But he didn't expect that Han Xiang had done so well, so he fell into a manure pit and drowned?
Did you end up in the hospital? Is this because you fainted?
It feels so sour...
Most of the bad breath in Yi Chuanzong's heart was gone.
It would be fine if Han Xiang didn't appear in front of him. As long as Han Xiang appeared in front of him again, he would still have to deal with this guy!
Even if he is tortured to death, he will not show any mercy!
"Okay, it's the same as that guy but not that guy. It won't delay our work and get paid. You should listen carefully to what I say. I'll make sure you gain something. Don't worry about what others do."
"Okay, Master Yi!" Gong Zhoujie responded quickly.
When it was time to go to work, Director Qian finished arranging the work and praised: "Today we especially want to commend Master Yi, who just came to our workshop. Yesterday's motor casings were very precise, especially the quantity of 110 completed in one day."
Six, this work efficiency is worthy of someone who is good at playing with a hammer, we applaud and encourage!"
Director Qian's last joke ignited the atmosphere in the workshop, and everyone was generous with their applause and praise.
"Master Yi is so awesome!"
"Master Yi's body is suitable for playing with a hammer."
"Master Yi's skills are so good! Zero mistakes!"
For a time, loud applause and excited shouts resounded throughout the workshop, and the workers admired Yi Chuanzong.
Originally, the motor casings were completed by Master Zhao. When the work was tight and he worked overtime, he could only complete fifty at most, and usually forty.
After all, four precise grooves need to be cut inside the motor case. Even wood is very slow to cut grooves, let alone iron.
But when it comes to Yi Chuanzong, the speed is three times that of Master Zhao, and every accuracy reaches the standard. This level is too amazing.
Yi Chuanzong smiled and waved to the workers around him, and the applause gradually subsided, "Thanks to Liu Yuan for helping me draw the line yesterday. He worked carefully and drew the line more accurately, so I could make no mistakes when I started, and it also speeded up my work efficiency.
.”
The conversation changed.
"In the future, the laborious work in the workshop can be given priority to me. I feel that all my energy has nowhere to vent. This hammer is a bit too small after all, and the smashing is not enjoyable enough."
"Hahaha!"
The workers in the workshop burst into laughter, thinking that Yi Chuanzong was joking. Who likes to do hard work?
Yi Chuanzong helplessly spread his hands, turned to look at the machine and said, "Director Qian, what I said is true. Please try your best to leave the hard work to me when arranging your work in the future."
Thinking of the apprentices below, he added: "Of course, for those who want to come and learn skills from me, I can still help you with this job."
Hearing his words, the workers present could no longer laugh. This gesture showed that he was serious, not afraid of hardship, not afraid of tiredness, and was considerate of the apprentice workers. This moved the workers a little.
"I remember your words! Don't complain about being tired in the future!" Director Qian said with a smile. He once communicated with Director Wang from Workshop No. 6.
Of course, Director Wang was full of praise. At first he thought it was a bit exaggerated, but today he found out that Yi Chuanzong was even more capable than the rumors said! And he was completely hard-working and uncomplaining. He was a good comrade.
!
Yi Chuanzong promised: "I've never been tired from work! Just make arrangements!"
In fact, he really wants to do more work, and being serious about improving his skills is one aspect.
The most important thing is to maintain physical fitness. Such a strong body is really addictive.
Director Qian said with a smile: "Everyone has heard about Han Xiang. If Master Yi is so short of manpower, the apprentices should lend more hands and learn more skills. Okay, let's get to work!"
The workers all walked towards their workstations. Yi Chuanzong turned to Liu Yuan and Gong Zhoujie and said, "Old rule, first pull the motor casings of the two cars. I taught Liu Yuan yesterday and Zhou Jie today. I'm here."
We’re waiting for you at workstation three.”
"Okay Master Yi!"
"Haha, that guy Han Xiang is gone, it's finally my turn today!"
