Hearing this, I couldn't sit still for a moment. I immediately rushed to the window and asked the guy who just spoke: "What did you just say? Say it again."
The young man glanced at me and said innocently: "Everything has been taken away."
The pawn shop owner asked again: "Has Mr. Zhang taken all the items in the second safe?"
"Well, this is Mr. Zhang's signature." The young man picked up a document and said.
After the pawn shop owner took a look at the document, he turned to me and said, "Sorry, our boss has taken the item away. If you want to redeem it, you have to go to our boss."
It turned out that he was not the boss, but this made me completely lose control. I almost couldn’t control myself and yelled: "The things were collected last night. I came here early in the morning to wait. You told me that your boss took them away."
Already?"
The pawn shop owner nodded and said, "I'm not sure when the boss will come to pick it up. I got off work after collecting the box last night."
"Stop talking nonsense, what's your boss's phone number?"
"Don't worry. Although our boss has taken away the things, they should still be at his place. I'll call and ask right away."
As the pawn shop owner said this, he took out his cell phone and dialed a number.
I looked at him with all my attention and became more and more nervous.
After a while, the call was connected, and I asked him to put it on speakerphone.
After opening it hands-free, the pawn shop owner asked: "Mr. Zhang, Xiao Qiu said you came yesterday and took away everything in the second safe?"
"I took it, didn't I sign it?"
"No, there is a buyer and seller now. I collected a Xiaomu box last night and they want to buy it back. Are the items still there?"
"What little wooden box?"
I was anxious and said directly: "It's a little bigger than a cigarette box, made of pure wood and dark purple."
"Who are you?" Mr. Zhang asked immediately after hearing my voice.
The pawn shop owner said: "Mr. Zhang, he is the buyer."
"Oh, it's still there. I haven't sold the stuff yet. What's going on? You want to buy it?"
"That's my thing." I said.
"When the things arrive at our place, why do we call them yours?"
The pawn shop owner said again: "Mr. Zhang, I made 200 yuan for that box, and I gave him 20,000 yuan."
"Twenty thousand! OK, you can go and get it."
"Where are you?" I asked immediately.
"Lao Mei, tell him where I am."
"Okay, Mr. Zhang, you go ahead."
The phone was hung up, and the owner of the pawn shop said to me: "If you want to buy back which box, you have to go to Mr. Zhang, the stuff is still there."
"Where is he?"
The owner of the pawn shop looked me over and said, "Well, you give me some errand money and I'll take you there."
He probably thought I was a fool and thought I was easy to talk to, so he agreed without hesitation for 20,000 yuan.
I really don’t want to get entangled in it anymore, so I can rest assured by spending some money to get the palm print back as soon as possible.
I asked him: "How much do you want?"
"Two hundred dollars is not much for you, right?"
"Stop talking nonsense and lead the way."
I took him to my car. As soon as I got in the car, he laughed and said: "No wonder the boss is so generous. He is indeed capable of driving a Mercedes... But boss, I saw your box. It's not worth it. You
Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Don't ask so many questions, just tell me how to get there?"
"Just go straight ahead."
I asked Wu Di to drive quickly, not wanting to delay for a minute.
At this time, Chen Xiaogang suddenly said to the pawn shop owner: "Boss, are you too unreasonable? Yesterday, you bought it from me for 200 yuan, and you resold it for 20,000 yuan. Can you tolerate it in your conscience?"
The owner of the pawn shop didn't take him seriously at all. He glanced at him and said, "What do you have to do here? I see that you, a young man, just stole the owner's things and came to sell them here. Shut up!"
I didn’t expect this boss to be very discerning, but maybe he often encounters this kind of thing.
The pawn shop owner said to me again: "Boss, if you have something good there, you can come to me and I promise to give you a good price."
I turned to glare at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense and be quiet."
"Don't worry, you arrived in time. Mr. Zhang said you were still there."
I didn't talk to him anymore, and under his guidance, we drove there in less than five minutes.
He was obviously trying to trick me, but there was nothing he could do about it. Who told me to be so anxious now?
I asked him to take me to Mr. Zhang and then pay him the two hundred yuan. I met Mr. Zhang in a teahouse in front.
He is also in his forties, bald, and looks very greasy.
"Where are the things?" I walked over and asked him.
"what?"
"Where's the box I just contacted you about?"
"Oh, you came a step too late and were bought by others."
"What?" I looked at him with wide eyes.
"I bought it! You guys are a little late."
I immediately stepped forward, grabbed his collar, glared and said, "Please organize your words for me and say it again."
"You...what are you going to do? Let go! I'm warning you, this is my place, let me go!"
"Let me ask you, where are my things? Take them out quickly!" I stared at him and said every word.
"They say it has been sold, are you deaf?"
Before he could finish the word "?", Wu Di's fist came up towards his lower abdomen. This vicious punch hit him into the shape of a shrimp.
I still grabbed his collar and said angrily: "Let me ask you one last time, where are the things? Don't force me!"
The pawn shop owner saw something was wrong and wanted to run away. I immediately shouted to Wu Di and stopped him.
Chen Xiaogang was smart and hurriedly ran to close the door.
He also walked up to Mr. Zhang, greeted him with a slap in the face, and said, "What do you want my brother to ask you? Where are your things?"
Only then did Mr. Zhang realize that he had offended the wrong person, and his voice trembled: "It's really... it's really been bought by someone. What... are you doing?"
"Who bought it?"
"I don't know you, so I'll be one step ahead of you."
"I'm riding a horse..." I raised my fist and almost hit him in the face.
He subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, and I said angrily: "I didn't tell you that I would come to get it right away? What do you mean?"
"He offered a high price, so I... sold it to him."
"How much did he pay?"
"Five...fifty thousand."
"Mom, what a fool!"
I couldn't bear it anymore, so I kicked him directly in the stomach, knocking him to the ground.
I didn’t want to get entangled with him anymore, so I hurriedly asked: “Do you have surveillance in your store?”
"Yes, yes..."
"Turn it up right away and let me see."
"well……"
I asked Wu Di to let the pawn shop owner go, but the door was still closed. If the matter is not resolved today, no one can leave here easily.
I have no choice, I don't want to be a bad person, but the palm print is really more important than my life!
