( ) The smile on Zuo Shaoqing's face made the old man's wrinkled face also have a smile. He took out a small brocade box from the box, handed it to Zuo Shaoqing, and motioned for her to open it.
Zuo Shaoqing opened the brocade box and looked at it, and couldn't help but admire it deeply. She actually ignored one thing. If the material of this seal is not good, the shape is not exquisite, or there are obvious traces of modification, it will be very serious.
It is easy to arouse the suspicion of bank employees. In addition, a new seal is more likely to make people suspicious.
But this seal exceeded her expectations. It was a piece of Hetian jade material, and the incisions on the seal surface were extremely clever, just like the shape of the original seal. She could see that the seal had been worn, and even the grooves on the seal surface had been worn.
It was also filled with dark red old stamping oil. This seal looked like it had been used for many years.
When Zuo Shaoqing took money out of his pocket, he casually asked: "Old sir, how much money can you make in one day?"
The old man looked serious. He looked into the distance and curled his lips and said, "I guess it's two yuan a day. Your wife is my biggest customer." He was silent for a while, and then said, "Young and old at home."
Seven people, all eating at this point."[
Zuo Shaoqing had already taken out the money at this time. She looked up at the old man's wrinkled face and his hands like eagle claws. She said softly: "Old sir, the salary is fifteen yuan, how do you calculate the cost of materials?"
The old man nodded to her, "Madam, they're all in, they're all in."
Zuo Shaoqing said gently: "Old sir, you have done a good job, and I am very satisfied. So, I would like to add a little more to you, please tell me."
The old man's eyes were fixed on Zuo Shaoqing's smiling face, as if he still didn't believe it. He hesitated for a moment, and finally stretched out two eagle-claw-like fingers tremblingly.
Zuo Shaoqing thought for a while, added a large ticket to the fifteen yuan, and put it into the old man's hand. "Old sir, I hope your business will do better in the future."
Zuo Shaoqing waved to the old man with trembling hands, stood up and left with the exquisite brocade box.
Zuo Shaoqing felt very comfortable as she walked on the road. This seal should be a good omen and might bring good luck to her future actions. She also hoped that the old gentleman would be happy. Maybe he could have a small drink tonight.
After drinking, he held the small wine glass with his talon-like fingers and drank.
The last thing Zuo Shaoqing did today was to find Chen Sanhu. She felt that with Hu Guanglin, Liu Qiuyue, and the ruffian Chen Sanhu, she should have enough help.
At this time, the sky had darkened and it was time for people to get off work. Standing outside the dock, Zuo Shaoqing saw groups of workers walking out of the gate of the dock, shouting at each other and scattering away.
This is actually the cargo yard of the dock, filled with gray bricks, high piles of stones, and thick timber. The road is full of dust, and whenever a vehicle drives by, it will raise dust all over the sky.
Finally, she saw Chen Sanhu and several workers with open arms walking out of the dock. They were chatting and laughing, swinging their arms and walking over. At the intersection in front, Chen Sanhu broke up with the workers and walked to the left alone.
Shaoqing is coming over here.
When he finally saw Zuo Shaoqing standing by the wall, he was so frightened that he slowed down like a little girl who saw a robber. He opened his eyes wide in the dark, looking very, very surprised.
He looked to the left, then to the right, reached out and slapped himself in the face, then howled, "Master! It's the master!"
He rushed forward a few steps, fell to the ground like a frightened girl, and cried loudly, "Master, you are finally back! Master, you still remember me! Come and find me!"
He burst into tears and slapped clouds of dust on the ground with his hands, covering his face soaked with tears.
Zuo Shaoqing walked up to him and wanted to pull him up, "Sanhu, Sanhu, get up, get up." But he couldn't pull him up. He hugged his big head and shed tears.
Chen Sanhu hugged her legs and then her waist, burying his tear-filled face in her arms, "Master, take me away, take me away, don't leave me behind again. I beg you."
It’s your turn, master.”
It took ten minutes for the sobbing Chen Sanhu to slowly calm down. He got up from the ground, held Zuo Shaoqing's hand with his dirty big hands, and kissed it vigorously, as if a lost child had seen it.
Mother.
When it was completely dark, Zuo Shaoqing took him to a tavern. She ordered two cold dishes and a bottle of white wine. She poured the wine into two big bowls. She said: "Sanhu, come here
, take a sip."
Chen Sanhu was already dancing with excitement at this time, his face was flushed, he didn't know how to sit down, his rough face was full of joy. He held the bowl with both hands, touched it with Zuo Shaoqing, and drank deeply
A big mouthful.
After drinking this sip of wine, he became a little excited again, grinning and said: "Master, I am stupid, but I also remember that when you were in Nanchang, the day you were dragged away by that bastard, I followed you
I was crying like a grandson without my mother. I was crying because I couldn’t see my master again. I was stupid and stupid. We went to the airport in Nanchang to chase you and look for you. I cried, but we couldn’t find you.
you!"[
Zuo Shaoqing took his hand, shook it, and said, "I know. Let's take another sip."
Chen Sanhu raised his face and took another big sip, sighing and saying: "Master, do you want to serve the country or the common people?"
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him with a smile and said softly: "Together."
Chen Sanhu slapped the table, "Okay, it's good for the community! I'm willing to work for the community! Master, I'm stupid, I'm stupid, please remember my words. If you hold my Chen Sanhu's head in your hand, one day you will
If you want to hear a sound, you can swing it hard and throw it. If I don't give you a crisp sound, I will be in the crotch... in the crotch..." He opened his mouth and smiled stupidly, "Master,
I said something bad."
Zuo Shaoqing smiled and nodded to him, "Sanhu, I understand. I also keep it in mind."
Chen Sanhu giggled and said, "Master, just remember it!"
As expected, Chen Sanhu’s head exploded for his master. This is a later story.
When Zuo Shaoqing broke up with Chen Sanhu, he asked him: "Sanhu, do you still have money in your pocket?"
With a silly smile on his face, Chen Sanhu took out a few cents from his pocket and put it on the table, "Master, this is it."
Zuo Shaoqing took out two big tickets from his pocket and stuffed them into his hands, "Sanhu, you've been fine these past few days. Do you understand? Don't cause trouble and don't drink too much. I'll make arrangements in a few days.
, will come to find you and take you away."
Chen Sanhu grinned widely, "Cheng, Cheng, master, I'll stay here, waiting for you to shout, waiting for you to take me away."
Late at night, Zuo Shaoqing returned home. At this time, Liu Qiuyue was waiting for her with a sad face.
Fu Huaizhen opened the door. He had an apron tied around his waist, and he leaned close to her ear and whispered: "Sister, please advise my Yue'er to get better. She roared and got angry at me! She even told me to get out of here.
Kai. Yue'er has never spoken to me like this. I'm so sad, you know."
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him doubtfully, "What's wrong?"
Fu Huaizhen said anxiously: "I told her carefully, can't I borrow it from her tomorrow? Sister, she is angry at me, I am so sad."
Zuo Shaoqing asked: "What are you going to borrow?"
Fu Huaizhen covered half of his mouth and said, "I borrowed the money."
Zuo Shaoqing understood that Liu Qiuyue was anxious for money. She smiled and said: "It's so late, you are wearing an apron, what else are you doing?"
Fu Huaizhen said with a smile: "How about some noodles next? Yue'er is afraid that you haven't eaten yet and will be hungry."
Zuo Shaoqing waved his hand to him, "No, I've had dinner. I'll go talk to Qiuyue about the money."
When Zuo Shaoqing entered the room, she vaguely felt that she was a little too optimistic today, even blindly optimistic. She must be more cautious.
After all, the money in "Yi Gongzi"'s account is still the moon in the sky. Why are my hands so loose? When I was carving the seal, I was happy and gave an extra ten yuan to the old gentleman with hands like eagle claws. See you.
When they arrived at Sanhu, they were moved and gave him twenty yuan. But Qiuyue was worried about money at home. She shouldn't have done it.[
Zuo Shaoqing gently sat down next to Liu Qiuyue, took out all the money in his pocket and put it on the table. She asked: "Qiuyue, is this money enough?"
Liu Qiuyue grabbed the money and counted it quickly. She looked back at Zuo Shaoqing and whispered: "Sister, I went to Confucius Temple today and found a shop that specializes in used hardware and electrical appliances. I rummaged through it.
In the afternoon, all the things I want are there. With this money, I can buy those things. But, sister, no matter what you want to do from now on, you will need money for every move. We can’t do it without money. "
Zuo Shaoqing nodded seriously. The future is still far away and even very dangerous. She must not relax now, let alone be careless. She must be vigilant.
She took out the white silk handkerchief Qian Yuhong gave her from her pocket and showed Liu Qiuyue the seal on it.
She whispered: "Qiuyue, Qian Yuhong said that Ye Gongjin has an account in Jingye Bank and has a lot of money. He uses this seal to withdraw money. In the afternoon, I asked someone to carve a seal, and this is it." She said what she had just said.
The carved seal was handed to Liu Qiuyue, "Take a look. If you think it works, let's try it tomorrow. If we can withdraw the money, our problem will be solved."
Liu Qiuyue looked at the seal carefully and compared it with the seal on the handkerchief. She looked at Zuo Shaoqing doubtfully, "Sister, can I just use this to withdraw money?"
"I don't know. We have to try."
"Go even if there is danger?" Liu Qiuyue looked at her uneasily.
"Yes." Zuo Shaoqing looked at Liu Qiuyue firmly. She understood that the money problem must be solved.
The next morning, Liu Qiuyue first went to school to ask for leave, and then she and Zuo Shaoqing went to the former Jingye Bank.
The former Jingye Bank has now been nationalized and is a branch of a large bank. (Literature Zone - Short Story Enxuequ)
