As the saying goes, "Only women and villains are difficult to raise."
Perhaps it was because Fang Ting was provoked that day, and this little girl was cursing the villain behind her back. Although Hong Yanwu successfully brought back painkillers, which alleviated his father's illness, he began to become confused in other things.
Not going well.
Like that night, his mother brought back bad news.
According to Wang Yunlin, she ran around with her things all day today. She visited trust shops in Xuanwu and Chongwen districts, and several cultural relics stores in Liulichang, but the bids were lower than the last.
That is to say, "Qingyuntang" was better, and she was willing to buy it for 2,000 yuan. However, it was still far away from her goal of 5,000 yuan, so she didn't make a move and had to go home first.
.
As for what to do next?
Wang Yunlin thought about it again, and she remembered that there was an old saying in the capital in the past, called "The east is rich and the west is noble, the south is poor and the north is humble." So she planned to try her luck in the east city and west city the next day. Because these two districts were in the old days.
A place where rich people and high-ranking officials gather has a much better foundation than Nancheng, where craftsmen gather, and perhaps the prices are even higher.
But as Hong Yanwu, of course he knew very well that his mother's hopes might still come to nothing.
Because as the saying goes, "gold in troubled times is collected in prosperous times." In this era, if the time is not right, no matter how good the items are, they can only be sold for a low price. On the contrary, now is a good time to buy these old items.
But in this regard, he didn't have any good way to solve the problem at the moment. He could only say some boring words to temporarily relieve his mother's anxious mood.
To be honest, if the family really encounters a life-threatening incident, only a fool would be willing to part with such a treasure that can be passed down from generation to generation. Not to mention that this thing has special meaning to my mother.
In addition, there was another very unpleasant thing that night. That is, the neighbor's wife also came to the house to inform Hong Yanwu that "Director Mao" had named him to attend the criminal public trial of Xuanwu (District) tomorrow.
It should be said that this was an activity that was frequently organized for specific groups of people on the streets of various districts in the capital at that time. The purpose of this kind of public trial meeting was to let people like Hong Yanwu and various restless owners on the streets get to know each other.
The power of dictatorship is used to achieve the purpose of intimidation.
After these special people go to the venue, not only do they have to sit in a specific seat to observe the whole process, but they also have to be reprimanded by the public security cadres afterwards before they can come back. It is definitely a humiliating and humiliating experience.
"General Assembly.
Therefore, Hong Yanwu, who had experienced this in his previous life, immediately understood that this was definitely a form of revenge from the "stinky hut" on him.
But people think this is an official "conspiracy", so what can he do if he doesn't suffer this immediate loss? With no other option, he can only admit it with his nose in his hands.
So the next day, according to the arrangements on the street, Hong Yanwu and several other troublemakers on the street were taken by Mao Yuanfang to the branch venue of Wanshou West Palace.
Everything was just as he expected, all the special viewing subjects like them in the nearby streets were arranged to sit at the front, right in front of the stage.
The attitude of the public security cadres was also what he expected. Their noses were not noses and eyes were not eyes to these people. Moreover, before the public trial began, they were reprimanded sternly. Many of them were involved in sneaking around.
The boy and the master, who were attending this kind of meeting for the first time, were both frightened.
But there was one thing that really exceeded his expectation. That was that at this public trial, he actually met You San and his gang who were arrested because of him.
The verdict was that You San, Da Gua and Cun Tou were all sentenced to three years of forced labor for "pocket picking". The three little ones were given a lighter sentence because they were too young and were accomplices. The final result was
Send them to a work-study school.
For this reason, he couldn't help but feel a little unexpectedly secretly happy. He felt that this public trial was not in vain.
But as the saying goes, when one gets carried away with one's pride, one becomes extremely happy and begets sorrow. Hong Yanwu was just gloating over his misfortune, secretly enjoying himself, but he didn't realize that someone in the public gallery at the public trial was already staring at him.
As a result, after the meeting, when he was walking home, two bicycles rushed towards him from behind him like lightning.
That is to say, he has the kung fu, and he has also practiced the "fire-burning body" technique of "a bottle is not full, half a bottle is banging". At the critical moment, relying on his sensitivity that is much beyond ordinary people, he finally noticed it in time and jumped to the road in a flash.
By the side, he dodged the two bricks that hit him hard on the back of the head from behind.
But even though he escaped the plot, this incident was enough to make Hong Yanwu sick.
Because first, the two boys who sneaked up on him didn't even look back, with masks on their faces, and just rode away on their bikes, leaving him no chance to even figure it out, let alone take revenge.
Secondly, it was not appropriate for this kind of thing to happen at this time. Mao Yuanfang was following him. Now that he had a reason, he was taken to the street police station to "explain his crimes."
Fortunately, there were acquaintances at the police station, and Zhang Baocheng finally came forward to understand the situation before letting him go.
It's just that Zhang Baocheng also had some extra worries because of this incident. For this reason, he gave a semi-warning and said a lot to Hong Yanwu to control himself and stop trying the law. Hong Yanwu felt bored and had a headache. In the end, he relied on
With nodding sincerely and false assurances, he finally managed to escape.
After returning home, Hong Yanwu thought about the matter for a while. He felt that it was unlikely that his old enemies came to take revenge.
Because he had only been home for a short period of time and had not wandered around on the streets at all in the past few days, not many people would know that he was back.
So other than that, there are only two possibilities.
First, while he was in the labor camp, there was a new generation of "player" who became famous nearby. After learning about his return, he wanted to compete with others, so he wanted to use this method to give him a "power".
Secondly, this is the follow-up to You San's incident. Perhaps it was You San's accomplices who attended the public trial and discovered his whereabouts by coincidence.
Not to mention, Hong Yanwu's judgment was so accurate. That night, he and Chen Liquan received an acquaintance who secretly came to "pay a visit to the mountain" in the Chen family's cabin. And the answer to this mystery was revealed.
Revealed.
So who is this person?
It is none other than "Er Head", the capable general of "Dade He" in the past.
"Er Tou" is much older than Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan. He has been working with "Da Dehe" for a long time. Judging from the time, he has been involved with the "Old Paoer" in the 1960s, so he can be regarded as an old man.
Even though he doesn’t have many people under his command now, he was very prosperous back then. At the most, he was in charge of half of the “family property” of “Da De He”, with more than a dozen “soldiers” and more than twenty “Buddhas”. In total,
With a family of more than 40 people, he is a well-known "player".
What's even more interesting is that this "Two Head" also knows a bit of "Iron Head Kung Fu", and it is common to smash bricks and wine bottles with his head. And the trick he is best at using in a fight is the "dog butt head".
"Dog butt head" is actually a martial arts move of the Beggar Clan. According to legend, in the past, wild dogs often went to "Yi Di" to drag corpses in coffins to eat. They would line up first and bang their heads against the coffin board, knocking the coffin open. Later, there was an incident.
Because the beggar often saw this situation, he had an idea and used this skill to fight against the enemy.
So, even though the name of this move is not elegant, it is indeed powerful.
Like every time in a fight, once "Two Head" grabs the opponent's shoulders, he will immediately hit the opponent's face with his forehead, and as long as he bumps into him, he can make the opponent dizzy with just one or two blows, and his face will be covered with blood.
, and even the bridge of the nose bone is shattered. In this way, the winner is basically determined. It can be said that it is impossible to guard against and extremely difficult to deal with.
Therefore, relying on this trick, "Er Tou" has never encountered any danger in the large and small racks he has experienced, and his reputation is growing day by day. Anyone who doesn't know his situation will definitely get killed if he fights with him.
He was a big loser, and those who knew him didn't know how to deal with it, so they often avoided him. This way, over time, he became famous.
However, the "two heads" have suffered a lot, and a few of them were at the hands of Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan.
That was the earliest conflict over the ownership of Route 40. The "two heads" tried their best to "meet each other like dogs" but it all failed in the hands of these two men.
Not only did Hong Yanwu pull up his collar and rub it out, leaving him bruised and swollen, but his extremely proud "iron head" also had five fingerprints left on it because of Chen Liquan's twist on his bald head.
It was so bruised that I almost broke my neck.
After that, Hong Yanwu lost the "Da Dehe" who had found a place for him. From then on, the 40th route belonged to Yiji Dingding. The Yongdingmen side returned completely defeated, and the "Two Heads" who suffered a lot also
I am completely convinced by Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan, and I will always be polite to these two whenever I see them again.
Just like this "night visit", he was still smiling at Hong Yanwu and Chen Liquan. Just like in the past, he put on a humble attitude. Not only did he take the initiative to offer ten "
"Great Unity", as "paying tribute to the mountain", also took out everything he knew in detail.
According to him, this "beating bricks" incident was actually done by "Gongzi", the current handler of Yongdingmen, who instructed his henchmen "Xie Fu" to do it.
Speaking of the purpose, one is to retaliate against Hong Yanwu for "carrying people" and sending You San to the prison. The other is because "Gongzi" has already occupied half of Hong Yanwu's 40 Road, and he is reluctant to spit out this piece of meat.
go.
It was only then that Hong Yanwu figured out that the "Master Cheng" whom Gan Qingyou called three times was named Cheng Gong, and he was exactly another old acquaintance "Gongzi" who used to follow "Dade He" to see him.
The misunderstanding between him and You San was all caused by the different names. This can be regarded as a farce of mistakes, accidents, and almost bloody things.
