Chapter 144: Hard

Suffering is something that no one can get rid of.

They appear at no time, and are as numerous as sparrows flying in the sky. They can be seen everywhere, scurrying around.

Moreover, when this thing is attached to people, most of the time, it is people who ask for it.

Take Hong Yanwu for example, when it came to recruiting "Stretch Out", "Big Eyed Lamp", "Er Head" and "Roller", he was a little careless and that's why he got himself into big trouble!

Hong Yanwu's original intention was to learn from the experience of inflicting innocent injuries on his brother "Lao Han" when he occupied Beicheng. He did not want to have such a regret that made his conscience uneasy again, so he adopted a relatively gentle approach.

Way to stop fighting.

He feels that persuading people with virtue in this way can not only eliminate hidden dangers and conflicts from the root, but also make enemies his own. He kills two birds with one stone, so why not?

At the same time, another situation is that since he and "Tang Xin'er" have been in Bincheng for so long, "Cier Mei" has always been watching the "Service Department for Overseas Personnel" alone.

The two of them had a great time, but they were very tired, having been making money for them in the capital.

No matter how I think about it, it is quite unbearable. So logically, once they come back, they should relax for a few days.

But this is a bit bad. Hong Yanwu felt sorry for his wife.

So after comprehensive consideration, he naturally thought that he could simply leave these four masters to the two of them.

Of course, the "salaries" of these four people are all borne by him and will not harm the interests of "Cier Mei". This also makes "Cier Mei" quite satisfied.

In fact, it was indeed a good deal for Hong Yanwu to hire "Stretch Out", "Big Eyed Lamp", "Er Head" and "Roller".

Because not only can they steal, they are also useful talents in ticket scalping.

"Two Head" is very talented and creative in the specific operation steps, can give a lot of good suggestions, and is also a very capable boss.

With his adviser and "protector", it would be much safer and more convenient for "Tang Xin'er" and "Ci'er Mei" to ship goods and collect money outside.

"Big Eyed Lantern" is a famous "minesweeping expert". He has an experienced eye and can spot "mines" in the crowd. He can also tell whether the customers are rich or poor at a glance.

"Reaching Out" is quite talented in acting. He pretends to be the son of a high-ranking cadre, pretends to be an intellectual, and acts like anything he wants. He is also very talkative. Almost all of them, men and women, old and young, are good at their job.

Although "Roller" is young, he is also very clever. He can learn everything quickly from everyone. Even if he is not good at it, he can still last for a while when no one is around. He can be regarded as a versatile substitute player.

He is also very discerning and is not afraid of trivial matters and hardships. Even buying soda, buying cigarettes, passing messages, and delivering news are quite useful.

To be honest, since they had these four capable helpers, "Tangxin'er" and "Ciermei" suddenly felt a lot more relaxed, and they were doing more and more impressive work in this area.

In just half a month, the money they earned has caught up to what they earned in the past month and a half.

And because the people and horses didn't get along, no matter it was "Little Leizi", "Little Wife", or these four people, they all felt quite comfortable with each other. No one was getting emotional, and the scene was peaceful, which saved a lot of trouble.

All in all, Hong Yanwu knows people well and makes good use of them. All the above aspects are good things and he has indeed achieved his original intention.

However, life just can't make you completely happy. Facts have proved that there is no such thing as an ideal and perfect plan. There must always be something wrong with everything to make people uncomfortable.

Hong Yanwu soon discovered a rather unexpected situation.

They are different from "Big Eyes", "Two Heads" and "Roller" who cherish this new life extremely and work hard.

The guy who "reached out" seemed to have ulterior motives, and his motive for "submitting" might not be that simple.

Because every time when Hong Yanwu went to look for "Tang Xin'er", he would always see this kid wandering around "Tang Xin'er" like a fly, just like a very hungry person staring at the mutton buns.

Although he would immediately and wisely avoid him when he saw him, his eyes could not help but reveal a restless twist.

It is said that women have a sixth sense, but men are not completely mentally retarded.

This situation, combined with the sudden reversal of "reach out"'s original attitude, made Hong Yanwu feel that something was wrong.

But at this time, he wasn't sure yet, not to mention that everyone else was in an unprecedented high mood. He couldn't destroy this great atmosphere of unity just because of this sign. That would chill everyone's hearts.

So he mentioned it to "Tang Xin'er" in private and wanted to give her a vaccination.

But he didn't expect "Tang Xin'er" to laugh at him for being blindly jealous.

She said "reach out" just because she was out of curiosity. She always kept asking her for the secret recipe of "suffocating fragrance". In addition, she just wanted to learn the tricks of stealing from her.

That boy really admired the things in her family. But she couldn't pass on something as important as the 'Misty Incense', even if she was anxious to death, it would be useless.

When saying these words, "Tang Xin'er" felt a little smug and proud.

As a result, Hong Yanwu had nothing to say.

He even had some luck, thinking that this reason was reasonable. Maybe he was really a little neurotic.

However, what happened later quickly proved that his initial judgment was correct.

Because not long after, Hong Yanwu discovered that "reaching out" actually showed a kind of coldness and hostility when facing him, which made him very confused.

Later he found out that the sweetheart "Tang Xin'er" still cared about his feelings. The last time they talked, he said it was nothing. But after that, he also deliberately kept a distance from "reaching out". He didn't have much contact with him anymore.

Just kidding.

Therefore, the boy "Reaching Out" clearly noticed that "Tang Xin'er" was alienated, so he turned his anger on him.

If these are not enough to explain the problem, the most obvious one is the day when "wages" are paid in early November.

Not only did the "Service Department for Overseas Personnel" do a good job this month, but the 19 theaters also had a full house.

In addition, the Hong family had another happy addition that month - on October 29, Hong Yanwu's second nephew, Hong Yi, was born in Tiantan Hospital according to the original trajectory of history.

So Hong Yanwu made a generous gesture of "universal celebration" and announced that no matter the brothers from the 19 theaters or the four people from the "Abroad Personnel Service Department", everyone would get double salary for the month.

If there is such a great good thing coming from heaven, of course there will be thunderous cheers.

Not only did all the theaters praise Hong Ye's benevolence and righteousness behind the scenes, but the "Big Eyes" and the others also thought highly of Hong Yanwu.

You know, Hong Yanwu will only start deducting their money from next month. But they have only worked for half a month, and each person has received an average of two hundred yuan.

This harvest, not to mention much better than what they are doing now, is also better than the past days.

More importantly, it showed that Hong Yanwu definitely did not lie to them, and he did not treat them like cattle just for the sake of the 4,000 yuan compensation.

So "Big Eyed Deng" made the decision, and the four of them paid for it. They asked Hong Yanwu, Chen Liquan, "Tang Xin'er" and "Cier Mei" to make a piece of mutton shabu-shabu to express their gratitude.

Originally, this was a good thing. But it was precisely during this meal that "Stretch Out" provoked Hong Yanwu repeatedly during the dinner. His attitude became clearer and clearer than ever!

Needless to say, a man’s favorite thing to do at the wine table is to toast.

And on this occasion, it was the first meal since everyone got together, and each other had to express their sincerity. Therefore, it was difficult for Hong Yanwu to refuse, both emotionally and rationally.

"Reaching Out" precisely grasped this point and used toasting as an offensive weapon. On the surface, he was extremely enthusiastic about Hong Yanwu, but secretly, his intention was to make him fall down and make a fool of himself.

But this conspiracy went bankrupt very easily.

Not to mention Hong Yanwu's good physical condition, he can drink a lot. At the wine table, there is Chen Liquan, the best drinker.

Quanzi knows Hong Yanwu's drinking capacity best, can he still suffer a loss?

Seeing that "reach out" was a bit too much, Chen Liquan counterattacked and defended, and responded with "reach out" as prescribed. After a few rounds of this, the boy's eyes were straightened.

At this time, the "Big Eyed Lanterns" also saw that something was wrong, and helped smooth things over with soft words, and the matter was over.

But it wasn't over yet. Just when everyone was finishing their drinks and going out, the guy who "reached out" showed off his skills and even used his usual stealing skills to come over and touch Hong Yanwu's pocket.

But this time, even though the "hand-cleaning task" of "reaching out" has reached the state of enlightenment, it also hit a hard nail like never before. Before his hand could reach the position, Chen Liquan, who was beside Hong Yanwu, noticed it and grabbed his wrist.

Only then did the boy realize that what Hong Yanwu said when he persuaded him to surrender was not a lie.

With Chen Liquan here, every move he makes really cannot be hidden!

This surprised and frustrated him! He suddenly realized that if this man had been at the entrance of the "Capital Cinema", he really wouldn't have been able to take advantage, and he might have been "discounted" long ago.

But similarly, Chen Liquan and Hong Yanwu cannot underestimate "reaching out".

Because this guy actually knows how to "bone shrink".

After "reaching out" and being caught, for a moment, he somehow moved his wrist, and his hand was thrown out of Chen Liquan's grasp with a "swish" like a slippery snake.

This has also never happened to Chen Liquan, who is infallible.

They both couldn't help but feel startled, thinking that it would be really difficult to catch this kid.

Needless to say, this incident made everyone quite embarrassed.

Fortunately, "Tang Xin'er" became the good guy this time and smoothed things over.

After "Big Eyed Damp" took the initiative to express his apology for "Reaching Out", he dismissed it as an inappropriate joke.

But although it seems to have passed on the surface, it must be said that everyone is actually quite awkward and disappointed in their hearts.

After "Big Eyed Lantern" returned, he closed the door and gave him a good lesson without mentioning "reach out". Even Hong Yanwu, who didn't really suffer, couldn't sleep well in bed at night.

Because even though "reaching out" is not getting any advantage at all today, there is obviously a love rival with ulterior motives next to his wife! Who can be practical about this?

He never thought that because of his soft heart, he would lead a wolf into the house, set a trap for himself, and lay a thunderbolt.

Have you even regretted your intestines?

Do you want to slap yourself twice?

Do you wish you could dig out your own dog eyes?

This is your own fault!
