It was around 5 o'clock in the morning, the sky was dark, and the whole street was very deserted. I sat in front of a steamed bun shop and drank soy milk with my head down.
Opposite me were two young men, one fat and one thin. The fat one had a fat face and ate like a pig, with a mouth full of oil. The thin one had a short hair, a long face, and looked like a gangster from society.
gas.
"I am full."
I wiped my mouth and pushed over two thick envelopes.
The short-haired man opened it and took a look. He put it into his arms calmly, with an evil smile on his face and said: "Thank you, boss. I can see that the boss is a happy person. If you have any work in the future, please contact our brothers directly. I promise to give it to you."
Done beautifully."
I nodded: "Remember the time and go get the money on time at 1:30. You can't touch that little girl."
"Heh," the short-haired man said with a smile: "Don't worry, our brothers are not perverts and can't speak like that."
I found these two people through friends. They were both released not long ago. The thin one’s surname is Zhou, and the fat one’s surname is Zhao. They were admitted because they did dirty work for others. I heard that they were forced to squat for four years.
I didn't reveal any information about my employer, so I had a good reputation. I told them to transfer the ransom directly to the eldest sister after receiving it.
The fat man raised his head and shouted: "Here are three yuan of fried dough sticks!"
"Hey! Come right away!"
The proprietress of the breakfast shop quickly brought a plate of fried dough sticks. The fat man took the tray and slapped the proprietress hard on the butt with a loud sound.
The landlady may have known these two people, but she ran away quickly without saying a word.
Wenwen helped me a lot this time. If she hadn't worked in the bank, I wouldn't have been able to get so much cash in a short period of time. I didn't have time to count them one by one. I weighed them and found that they were the right size, weighing about 18 kilograms.
Everything is proceeding steadily according to plan.
I rushed to Guozhuang to pay the money and got the painting. The eldest sister called the "robber" to tell me that she had collected the money. The "robber" told me the exchange location. At this time, I secretly sent a text message to Douyazai and asked him to escort the little girl to the hospital.
car.
As I expected, everything went smoothly without any problems.
The old lady didn't dare to risk calling the police. The moment she saw the little schoolbag, the old lady was so excited that she shed tears. She kept hugging the child and said, "It'll be good if it's back! It'll be good if my granddaughter is back!"
The eldest sister also knelt on the ground with excitement on her face. I had to admit that she had the talent to be an actress.
At 8:30 p.m., two cars were parked at the national road intersection, both with double flashers on.
The eldest sister was laughing so hard in the car that she kept slapping the steering wheel with her hands.
I smiled and said, "Sister, now you have got your wish, 600,000, plus the 300,000 I gave you before, there is still 100,000 you are short of, I will give it to you as soon as possible."
"Don't be anxious, little brother! This time I feel comfortable from the bottom of my heart! Since my husband died, I have never felt as comfortable as I do today!"
I smiled and said, "One thing you need to pay attention to is that you should not take your children back to Guozhuang in the near future, lest your daughter accidentally let the news slip."
She nodded and said: "Don't worry, my daughter is still young and doesn't understand anything." At this point, the eldest sister's voice gradually deepened: "I really didn't expect that the old woman actually hid so many treasures. She was planning to take them by herself."
In the coffin, didn’t you say there was some kind of emerald cabbage?”
I lit a cigarette, thought about it, smacked my lips and said, "It's hard to say. I thought about it afterwards. Sister, you should also think about it. You can't believe everything the old lady says. If she says there's no such thing, I believe there is."
"What do you mean?" the eldest sister asked with a frown.
I shook my head: "It's hard to say, but I always feel a little uneasy."
The eldest sister put her hand on my shoulder and said with a smile: "How can someone like you, who has done so many bad things, feel uneasy?"
She took my cigarette away, took a deep breath herself, and said expressionlessly: "Regardless of whether she has it or not, the old woman won't live for a few years anyway. Everything will be mine after she dies. Just treat it as the injustice she has suffered against me for so many years."
compensation.”
After saying that, the eldest sister suddenly kissed the side of my face and said, "No matter what, Xiang Feng, thank you for helping us orphans and widowed mothers."
I smiled and said, "Then how are you going to thank me?"
"Oh...how do you want me to thank you? Can you do it?"
My face turned dark instantly.
"Haha, I'm not teasing you anymore! I understand that you are different from other men. You keep your word and you are not good at sex. I don't have any good things. I bought this gold necklace when I got married. I have had it for several years. You
Take it and treat it as a piece of my mind."
It was Lao Fengxiang's gold necklace, which probably weighed a few dozen grams. After I accepted it, I smiled and said, "This is really a peach blossom pond with a depth of thousands of feet. It's not as good as my sister's gift to me."
"Fuck you! You're going to be so talkative! I'm leaving."
Then she got out of the car, got into her own car, and drove away along the national highway.
Watching the car drive away, I touched my face, shook my head and smiled bitterly.
Maybe women all have two sides.
On the one hand, this eldest sister has the image of a highly educated wife and loving mother; on the other hand, she is bold and open-minded.
Turning on the lights in the car, I carefully admired the Southern Song dynasty bird painting I just got. My hard work these days has been in vain, and having it is worth everything.
In my eyes, it is not a painting, but a bunch of colorful banknotes. As long as the price someone gives me is right, I will sell it immediately without any hesitation.
I didn't sleep much in the past two days and felt very tired. I stretched out, turned on the car radio, and slowly fell asleep listening to the song "Little White Poplar".
Not long after I slept, probably less than two hours, my phone vibrated and woke me up.
"Wei...who is it?"
"Boss, it's me."
It was the thin guy who called me. I frowned and asked what he was doing.
"Hey, it's nothing big. My two brothers have finished some work, so I just want to ask the boss to pay the balance. I still have fifteen thousand."
"I know, what time is it now, not tomorrow?"
The thin man on the other end of the phone smiled and said: "No, our consistent principle is that you will receive the money after completing the work, and you can't delay it. This is a rule. Boss, don't break our rules."
It's best not to offend this kind of people easily. I frowned and thought for a while and said, "Okay, give me an address."
"The barbecue restaurant at the entrance of Green Olive, single room on the second floor, waiting for you here."
When I arrived, I immediately saw the thin man eating barbecue on the second floor.
"Haha! Boss, you are here, you are so on time. I like to deal with people who are on time."
I closed the door, took out a thick envelope from my arms and threw it on the table.
I said: "Fifteen thousand, let's settle everything, and try not to meet each other in the future."
He threw away the skewers, glanced at the envelope, pulled out two pieces of toilet paper, wiped his mouth and said, "That's natural, we won't meet again in the future."
I frowned at him and turned to leave.
After twisting the door twice, it couldn't be opened. It seemed that someone had locked it with a key from the outside.
I just turned around and that’s when!
The thin man took a steel knife and stabbed it hard at my neck! He was very fast! It was clear that he wanted my life!
I subconsciously and instinctively hid to the right, but the knife still made a cut under my ear, and I saw blood instantly.
"Fuck you!"
I leaned against the door, furious!
The thin man stood there, raised his hand to add blood to the knife, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, boss, someone is offering 400,000 yuan to buy your life, but there's nothing I can do about it, brother."
He pointed to the bathroom: "I'll drag you there later and divide it into five or six bags, which should be enough to make sure no one can find you. This is also what the employer requires."
I knew that the other party was not joking, and at the same time, I told myself that I must not panic at this time. The more I panic, the more flaws I will see.
"Four hundred thousand...is really a big deal. Tell me who hired you."
The thin man gripped the steel knife tightly and approached me step by step.
