"Sir, how long do you plan to rent for? How about we go down and talk?"
"OK!"
Zhang Tianhao and her went directly downstairs, and then went to the living room below to discuss.
In a heated exchange of words, the two began to argue over a few dollars. Of course, this also showed Zhang Tianhao's nature as a small businessman. If he was so cheerful, it would easily arouse suspicion.
After all, this woman is here, and if the two girls leave in a hurry, if he doesn't show off, it will still easily cause unnecessary trouble.
"Let's do this. You pay one year at a time and I give you 1,320 yuan in rent. How about that?"
"Well, eldest sister, you are really a veteran. I have been in business for such a long time and I can't compare to you. You are amazing. You are really amazing!"
Zhang Tianhao immediately took out a fake ID and handed it over, and signed a contract with her with a smile.
"Sir, are you from Nantong?"
"Yes, it's a pity that life there is not easy, so I can only come to Shanghai to make a living. I don't know what will happen in the future?" Zhang Tianhao also let out a long sigh, his expression full of endless bitterness.
"This is not a war. Otherwise, how could I be so sad here? Forget it, let's not talk about this. We ordinary people, no matter how much we think about it, it is a waste. Let's find a way to live!"
Zhang Tianhao started chatting casually while counting the money.
…
In the public concession, a young man was sitting there selling wontons while listening to the conversation of the two young men opposite him.
"Ahu, how is the situation there?"
"Damn it, that underground party is so cunning. I followed him for a while, but I knew he was in the concession, but he couldn't do anything. It's really annoying."
"I'm such a wimp over there, I'm almost pissed off. I followed a bastard, and it turns out he's in the porn industry. It made me happy for a while at first, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be this.
The people are so angry."
As he talked, he ate the noodles. It seemed that the noodles were more fragrant than the noodles. Although the sound was not loud, the boss standing not far away still heard it.
The young noodle seller didn't seem to hear it, but he still moved closer to the distance between the two in order to hear it more clearly.
Others may not know it, but Qian Jun has at least more than 200 people stationed at the bottom of the entire concession. Although he seems to be at the bottom, he can inadvertently hear a lot of news.
Although the placement of more than 200 people is not too dangerous compared to the concession of more than 100,000 people, and it is even impossible to cover everything, it can still understand what is happening in most areas.
After the wonton seller heard about it, someone else came to buy wontons, and the boss immediately started selling wontons to the new arrivals.
In this way, the boss is here to keep an eye on them, meeting all kinds of people every day. As for people like this, he has already become interested in them.
After all, he and these agents were born to be mortal enemies, but it was not the time to take action yet.
…
Behind Anguo Temple, a rickshaw master sat there carefully, his eyes scanning the people walking around from time to time, and at the same time, he listened to the other rickshaw masters on both sides chatting casually.
"Have you heard? There are two cart pullers over there on Jinjiao Road. They are wearing leather shoes and carrying guns. They are not soliciting customers. It's obvious at first glance. These damn bastards have been doing this all day long.
They know how to bully us and become the lackeys of the Japanese."
"Keep your voice down, don't be heard, otherwise we will be in trouble!"
Another person on the side persuaded in a low voice: "After all, we are all ordinary people. We can't defeat them at all."
"That's right, this damn bastard, all of them deserve to die, really all of them deserve to die. Forget it, let's not talk about it. We still haven't found dinner today, and this day is getting more and more difficult."
"Yeah, let's see if we can make two trips to earn some money and solve the problem of dinner tonight."
The two sighed, and then looked at the other two rickshaw masters on both sides. After all, they had been working here for more than a day or two, and they knew each other somewhat.
…
In a teahouse on Beishan West Road in the concession, a waiter was pouring tea to a few guests. He was also standing in the lobby, paying attention to what was going on around him.
"You don't know how fair and tender the women at Erdaolou are, and their consumption is very high. I went there last night, and it was such a joy!"
"What the hell, I was so frightened that I almost pissed myself. I was just going to go to the backyard to find a toilet, but before I even entered the backyard, I was stopped by a few bastards with guns.
I almost collapsed, and I finally escaped." Another person said with a scared look on his face.
"How come I didn't know about this situation?"
"It hasn't happened before. I went there once. They looked murderous. I even heard them speaking Japanese. It looked like little Japan. It was really scary."
The waiter stood there, listened for a few words with his ears raised, and after hearing the location, he shouted loudly to a customer who came in.
"Yeah, Third Master is here. Please come upstairs. Please come upstairs!"
While carrying the teapot, he led the middle-aged man who had just walked in, wearing a big gold ring on his finger and wearing black clothes, and complimented loudly.
"Young man has a sharp eye, I like him."
He waved his hand and gave a direct compliment.
Then there was no more.
It's just that the waiter had a smile on his face, but his eyes were full of contempt. After all, this man has been drinking tea here and has been in debt for more than a year, but he has never paid a penny.
…
In a small alley behind Lanzhou Road in the concession, a young beggar was sitting there with a big black bowl in front of him and a bamboo pole in his hand. He said something to the passers-by from time to time.
"Sister, okay, okay!"
"Brother, please enjoy the food!"
"Sister, brother, please give me some money and enjoy the meal!"
His legs seemed to have no strength and were thrown to the side, as if they had lost their function.
It seems that this is a normal phenomenon. After all, this kind of situation is often seen in Shanghai, and beggars are also divided into different places.
And he has been begging in this area for more than a year.
But no one noticed. His peripheral vision kept staring at a small courtyard not far across the street. After all, there were a group of people living here, about seven or eight, and they seemed to be quite skilled.
After training, he had already paid attention to this small courtyard from the beginning, and he kept an eye on the person who lived here last month.
When it got later, he supported it with both hands and slowly moved forward as if walking.
And the bowl and bamboo stick were inserted directly into his back and he was walking with both hands. This also required a certain amount of strength. He looked like he was really a beggar.
When he walked far away, several hundred meters, he turned directly into a small alley.
He sat there, looked around, then with a flash of light in his eyes, he stood up, pushed his legs hard, and quickly disappeared from here.
No one would have thought that a beggar could have such skill and move so fast, which is not how a beggar should behave at all.
