It’s not even enough to buy a good set of cosmetics for a girl.
But it was different at that time. Let’s talk about Yinchuan. A bowl of noodles costs four to five yuan. The salary of an ordinary hotel waiter is only 500. Lao Wen asked for 2,000. He kept promoting himself and said that he was worth so much. This may be the case.
His spirit later made Lao Wen rich,
Dou Sprout Zai and I ignored him at first, but he followed me for two or three rounds.
Just kidding, how could we easily let someone we just met know our details? Then I got annoyed with him and said, "Just leave your phone number and go back first. We'll think about it and contact you if necessary."
Lao Wen said that I don’t have a phone number, so why don’t you leave the landline number of the canteen and call me and tell me to ask for Wen Laoer, and the lady boss will notify me.
I said no problem, what's the number?
Looking at the diamond-encrusted flip phone I took out, Lao Wen enviously reported the phone number of the canteen and told me to find him. He was from Yinchuan and could definitely help.
After sending Lao Wen away for the time being, Douyazai and I returned to our residence. Xiaoxuan was washing clothes in the yard, leaving water all over the floor.
Dou Sprout jumped over the puddle in one step and complained, "Are you doing laundry or watering the ground?"
I said don't be so talkative and hurry into the house for a meeting.
.
I finally entered the house and locked the door.
ten minutes later.
After hearing what I said, Douyazai was surprised and said: "Zhou Bing looks like an intellectual this time, so that's what he is in private. Also, Zhou Shun's disguise is really similar. Did you see it the other day? The old man threw himself to the ground.
Hey, hey, hey, you can really pretend."
Xiaoxuan gritted her teeth and said: "His wife must have gone back to her parents' home and disappeared. Could it be that Zhou gave his wife to him?"
I say don't draw any conclusions yet.
Both Zhou Bing and his grandfather Zhou Shun have met the three of us, so we definitely can't do it, so we have to find someone whom he and his grandfather have never met to handle the matter. Although the method I think of doesn't sound complicated, it is
It's the right medicine.
The so-called catching cheaters and couples, and catching thieves and stolen goods.
Let's do this next
The next day.
"Hey, is this a canteen?"
"Yeah, who are you looking for?"
"Oh, that's it. I'm looking for a guy named Wen Laoer, and he asked me to keep this number."
"Look for him, wait a minute."
"Wen Laoer! Wen Laoer! Phone! Someone is looking for you!"
After four or five minutes, a different man answered the phone.
"Hey, who is it?"
I smiled on the phone and said, "I didn't expect to need your help so soon."
"It's you!" The old man's voice on the other end of the phone sounded excited.
"Just tell me what you need me to do! As long as it's not illegal, I can do it!" he said loudly and angrily on the phone.
I said it's not illegal, but I have a request. Before we meet, you must cut your hair and shave, and then change into clean and decent clothes.
He said what's the problem? I just need to clean myself up. Now that I've cleaned up, where can I find you later?
"Let's meet here where you sent us back yesterday." After saying that, I hung up the phone.
We arrived early to wait for him, but Lao Wen arrived about two hours later.
It is true that a person is judged by his clothes. Lao Wen fixed his hair and sprayed it with hairspray, changed into a casual suit, and put an unknown brand of electronic watch on his wrist. Now he looked more like a boss than a delivery person.
"How's it going? I think this outfit is okay. I bought it for the Chinese New Year last year and I haven't been willing to wear it." He smiled and looked down at himself.
Douyazai curled his lips and said: "A tricycle rider also wears an electronic watch, just pretending to be a model."
I directly gave him two thousand yuan.
Lao Wen sighed and started losing money. Then he put 2,000 yuan into his trouser pocket and patted it.
"Tell me, what do you need me to do, lead the way?"
I shook my head and said that you don't need to lead the way. I want you to pretend that you are an antique dealer from Beijing.
"What?"
Lao Wen was dumbfounded and said: "Antiques? How can I understand those things? I have never seen them before."
I said you don’t need to understand, can you show off?
The old writer knows a thing or two about this.
I nodded and said that's enough, you just need to pretend that you are rich and act smart as much as possible so as not to lose your worth.
Lao Wen nodded: "Who am I pretending to show, and when will I act?"
I looked at the time, thought for a moment and said, "Seven o'clock tonight."
At that time, Yinchuan had not yet embarked on a major city construction project, and there were few high-rise buildings. It was easy to find out where a certain company was. The advertising company run by Zhou Bing was across Funing Street. Old Yinchuan people were still used to calling this place Laomiao Street.
Because there used to be a very efficacious old temple here called Funing Temple.
Zhou Bing's advertising company is called Tianyuan Advertising Planning. It mainly helps shops make advertising slogans and signboards, and helps people print, copy and design business cards. Because he is the only one doing this nearby, the business has always been good.
His store pulls down the rolling shutter door at 7:30 every day. There were originally three employees in the store, but because the handsome boy is no longer there, there are now two employees in the store, one male and one female. Together with Zhou Bing, there are three people in total.
At around 6 o'clock that evening, a group of us arrived at the entrance of Tianyuan Advertising Copy Shop.
"Have you remembered everything I told you?" I asked Lao Wen.
Lao Wen said, remember, please give me your mobile phone.
So I gave him my new mobile phone, which he added on his own initiative.
After putting away his mobile phone, Lao Wen took out two stacks of money from his pocket. This was the full 20,000 yuan I gave him. He patted the money and said with a smile: "Look, I will definitely not expose the secret."
I said I hope so.
Then Lao Wen tidied his hair, patted his suit, and walked into the advertising store with his hands behind his back.
Douyazai Xiaoxuan and I hurriedly followed.
"Hello, what are you doing?" the female employee asked as she looked at Lao Wen who came into the store.
"I'll make the business card." Old Wen said in a calm tone, with an expression neither sad nor happy.
"Designing business cards?" The female employee looked at the time and said, "We will close at half past seven. You can come back tomorrow."
Lao Wen frowned and said I could add more money. I would get it tomorrow morning at the latest.
"So urgent? What do you do?" the woman asked.
"You don't have to worry about what I do. Where is your boss? Call him out and I'll talk to him face to face."
The female employee looked at Lao Wen suspiciously, turned around and called Zhou Bing over.
"Hello, hello, I'm the boss." Zhou Bing put down the pile of printing paper in his hand and walked over with a smile.
The female employee repeated Lao Wen's request, and Zhou Bing nodded and said, "You mean to ask us to work overtime tonight, and we have to make it tomorrow morning, right?"
Lao Wen deliberately showed the electronic watch on his hand, looked at the time and said, "Yes, that's what I meant. I have to meet some very important clients tomorrow morning, and the original business card box has been brought to Shangri-La."
After hearing this, Dou Sprout, who was eavesdropping at the door of the store, turned around and asked me: "Where is Shangri-La?"
I'd say it's the one in Zizhuyuan in Beijing. It's very expensive.
Dou Sprout murmured in a low voice that I didn’t even know, how could he know it when he was selling the goods?
I patted Bean Sprouts and signaled him to stop talking and continue reading.
Zhou Bing looked at Lao Wen up and down and said, "If you have to rush, it's not impossible, that's it."
Lao Wen shook his head and impatiently took out a stack of money from his pocket and threw it to Zhou Bing.
"Is it enough?"
Before Zhou Bing could react, Lao Wen threw him another stack of money.
