The next day they went as planned. They brought wood, nails, and hammers that they had prepared in advance, as well as a plaque with Leilei's photo on it and a missing person notice written in large and eye-catching letters.
Get on the bus and arrive at the busiest commercial street in Nancheng.
They chose to sit under a streetlight at a busy intersection and began their life of street stall and searching for people.
In order to attract people quickly, Gu Anran acted as Mo Bei's shill.
Gu Anran was playing in front of his stall for five yuan, and he had the drive not to admit defeat until he smashed it.
Attracted by her laughter, Mobei's small stall was quickly crowded with people.
Everything looks simple but is actually not that easy to operate.
The onlookers saw how hard Gu Anran was smashing the nails, and they all pointed at them. They wanted to raise their arms and help her smash the nails.
"Take some strength, girl, haven't you eaten?"
"You can't hit it like this. You have to aim vertically at the nail. Don't hesitate and hit it!"
Five dollars were thrown in, and the result was very bad. Gu Anran sat on the curb next to him and covered his face with a smile: "Hahaha, why am I so stupid! I think it was a good smash! Why can't it be smashed down?
Woolen cloth?"
The more she said this, the more curious the onlookers became. Is it really that difficult? It looks so simple! All you have to do is smash a nail!
Those who kept talking were already eager to give it a try. A young man handed Mo Bei a dollar and confidently patted his chest and said, "Boss, are you ready for ten dollars? Wait until I succeed in the challenge."
You're cheating and won't pay me!"
"Here's the money." Mo Bei took out the ten-yuan note from his pocket and showed it to him, "If you like it, just come over and get it."
"Isn't that very simple!" The young man raised the hammer confidently, looked at the location of the nail, and pressed it three times. The last time it fell, the hammer clung to it. He pointed at the connection between the hammer and the wooden stick.
Junjun asked excitedly: "Boss, look, am I successful? Does your ten dollars belong to me?"
Hearing the sound, Mo Bei knew that he had not driven the nail into the wood completely with these three sounds. He pointed at the hammer and smiled politely: "Sir, take the hammer away and let everyone witness it. If the nail is not bent and deformed, it will be driven into the wood."
If you fall into the wood, I will compensate you ten yuan as agreed."
"Take it away, just take it away. How can I not hit it in with my strength..." When the man took the hammer away, his face suddenly turned green.
Bai was so happy that the nail really bent! The people around burst into laughter.
The man became unhappy immediately. He grabbed Mo Bei's collar and asked him angrily, "Tell me, are you doing something wrong on this piece of wood?"
Something unexpected happened, and just as Gu Anran was about to rush over, Mo Bei gave her a stopping look, so she could only stand there and look nervously.
"Brother." Mo Bei easily opened the young man's hand and raised his lips and smiled, "If you can't do it, you can't do it, but don't think so bad of others."
"I can't? You have the ability to smash it down in front of everyone and let me see!"
There was a sneer at the corner of Mo Bei's mouth. He pulled out the bent nail and pounded it a few times to straighten it. Then he picked up the hammer and banged it three times until the nail was completely submerged in the wooden stick.
Even if the bent nail is straightened back out, its hardness will decrease and it will be easier to bend. But Mo Bei used this nail to drive it perfectly into the wooden stick.
Mo Bei raised his eyebrows at the man and smiled, "Do you have any more questions?"
The man's expression changed, he dropped the dollar and walked away in despair.
Seeing how easily Mo Bei smashed the steel nail down, the onlookers became curious about trying it. They all took out a dollar and shouted, "I'll try it too!"
