When Chen Xuan saw the four-walled house, he wondered if he had come to an abandoned house. How could it be like this? Although the house was very clean, there was not even a decent bench inside.
"It's hard for me to imagine why there are still people like you now. I see that the public security around me is very good. I thought he was a patriotic person who loves the country. Why is it so strange to be here like you in the city now?"
Chen Xuan said these words helplessly. Although he didn't have much property with him, it was not difficult to investigate the situation here clearly.
The child inside walked out of the back room, although Chen Xuan did not go in.
But as you can imagine, the gift is probably just the quilt on the bed.
There wasn't even any decent furniture around, just some tattered clothes hanging on the branches at the door.
"To tell you the truth, there are a lot of people like us in the whole village. Most of the people in the village are like us. They live very hard. The men who are strong go to far away places to mine coal and carbon to earn money.
I'm a little angry, but it's all hard work."
After the old man heard this, he stooped forward with a cane.
"You said that the disease in my body has almost been cured. It was supposed to be eradicated, but now my family has become like this. I don't plan to let them cure it. I just want to let them take me to the wilderness one day.
Out in the countryside, just ask them not to tell me."
The old man's words were also very desolate. Chen Xuan shook his head helplessly, and then followed the old man outside. There were people and children outside, but their faces were yellow and hungry, and they looked like they hadn't eaten for many days.
"Actually, to be honest with you, I came here just to escape, and everyone nearby took notice of me, so I may have to stay here for a while this time, but I will definitely not eat and drink for free during my time here.
Everyone, please rest assured."
After Chen Xuan said these words, he took out the only jade pendant he had, and then took two strong men with him, disguised himself, and went to Zhuangzi in the town.
"I got this jade pendant by chance before. I first allocated this batch of jade plum jade and bought some things for everyone to subsidize their families. This will temporarily relieve the mood. Then I will understand the main situation of your village and improve it when there is an opportunity.
"
The two men following him were very grateful and looked at Chen Xuan as if they were his savior.
"You two, don't keep looking at me like that. I don't even know your names yet. My surname is Chen and my name is Chen Xuan."
Chen Xuan once again introduced his name and it no longer seemed so unfamiliar, but facing these hot expressions, he was still a little ashamed. He really wanted to chase something, but when he saw these people, he stopped moving forward.
pace.
"Don't worry about what everyone says. No matter what your surname is, you are our benefactor. My name is Daniu, and his name is Wang San. We are good brothers. We were originally strong and planned to follow. Those few
A villager who has gone out has gone out to try his luck, but there are seniors and young children at home who cannot leave at all."
After hearing the explanations of the two people, Chen Xuan expressed his understanding.
But when they arrived, the owner of the pawn shop refused to let them in, thinking that they were beggars. Chen Xuan also changed into their clothes in order to deceive others.
"You stinky beggars want to beg elsewhere. We are a pawn shop, not a place where you can come if you want. Get out of here."
Those two men have probably already suffered this kind of gaze. Even if they bring something to his side, people will definitely suspect that they stole it or robbed it. Even if they are pawned, they will not be given a high reward.
price.
"You two go back first, leave the things here to me, comfort the people at home first, and I will bring everything back then."
The first thing Chen Xuan set his sights on was this auction house. He felt that the owner was only interested in profit. He must have a lot of good things in it. As long as he went in and took a look, he could see the ghosts inside.
"What are you looking at? Your two brothers are gone. Why are you still here? Maybe you want to steal our treasure. If you want to watch it here, I will call the Yamen!"
Without saying anything, Chen Xuan slapped the person who just scolded him to the ground.
Just by gently moving two fingers, the man fell to the ground and couldn't get up. He didn't want to hurt innocent people, he just wanted to attract the attention of the owner of the pawn shop.
"This little brother is so skilled. I wonder what you want to do with me."
The owner of the pawn shop looks like a kind-hearted bearded man, and his clothes are a bit simple, but he is low-key and luxurious.
"Now that the boss has come out, he must know what happened to us just now. We just want to pawn something. Why do you look down on others here? Do you look down on beggars who have something to pawn?"
He was such a good boss, but after seeing Chen Xuan's effort just now, he didn't dare to neglect it and quickly stretched out his hand.
"This is exactly what you said. Please come in quickly. Our guys are also afraid that some lawless people will come to make trouble. Beggars often come here to beg. At first, they will give you something, but as time goes by, they will
We treat this place as our own home, there is really nothing we can do to stop so many of our guests.”
After hearing what the boss said, Chen Xuan felt that it made sense and didn't say anything, but what he did just now seemed very abominable.
"Then boss, what you're saying is that no matter whether the beggar has something or not, you won't order it for him. Instead, you think their treasure comes from illegal means, right?!"
Chen Xuan now either wants to get into trouble or correct his boss's view of right and wrong. Even if this boss has good things, he probably won't get a big price for them, so he still has to make it clear to him.
"Sir, how can you say that? Since I have seen your skill just now, let's get straight to the point. You tell me what you want. Anyway, if you have something, I will give you money. Let's talk about this."
Chen Xuan smiled and took out the jade pendant on his body. In fact, he had not thought about it, but now that we are in this situation, and there are so many refugees there, if they don't eat some meat, they may not be able to survive.
"This jade pendant is worth a lot of money. I can't care about the price for the time being. If you use it as a pawn, sir, I can't pay so much."
The owner of the pawn shop honestly said that he has never seen a finished product that is so good. There are basically no impurities in the jade, and it feels smooth and looks like it has been around for a long time, but the color is well preserved.
"Then I'll make a bet with the boss. I'll leave the things for now and I'll pick them up later, but you have to lend me some money."
