Chapter 106 Boss, Don’t Hit Me
Chapter 106 Boss, Don’t Hit Me
The officers verified the fat man's identity and searched his house with suspicion. They actually found the people locked in the cellar, thirteen women and nineteen children.
Zhao Lei reported the case to the Nancheng Yasi, but the number of people involved was large, the case was serious, and it was obvious that this was a long-term behavior, so the county magistrate was alarmed.
In the end, the case was heard by the county magistrate himself.
Of course, Zhao Susu and her group had already returned to Baiwu Town, Ningshan County at that time.
However, in order to serve as a witness and inquire about the case, Zhao Lei stayed and would not go back until the case was concluded.
When Zhao Susu said she wanted to open a shop, she was not just talking, she had this plan in mind for a long time, so she started looking for a location for the shop as soon as she returned.
After renting a shop in South City, Zhao Susu immediately got busy.
There are a lot of preparations to be done before opening, but fortunately, Zhao Susu is no longer the same person she was two years ago.
She did all those things herself and no longer needed help from others.
The shop in Xinpan is twice as big as the one in town.
The shops in the town were completely handed over to Yu Yuanda for management. Yu Yuanda also told her about what Cao Shuqing had come to ask her about for five consecutive days.
Zhao Susu ignored it.
The child is so young, but he is thinking about getting something for nothing. He is really scheming.
She didn't want Meng Yu to have too much contact with such people. She hoped that her A Yu would be happy in the future instead of being with a scheming person.
Besides, Ayu is still so young. She will wait until Ayu grows up, let her choose someone she likes, and then help her arrange a marriage.
She went to take care of the shop in the county town, and Meng Yu did not go with her.
At the entrance of an alley on West Street, Feng Si was standing with his sleeves rolled up, one hand on a stone, and his clothes half-unbuttoned.
In front of him was a small table. He was holding a dice cup and shaking the dice inside, making a clattering sound.
The crisp sound attracted passers-by to stop.
He paused shaking the dice, looked at the crowd, and shouted, "Come and place your bets. Bet big or small, and the result will be known soon. If you dare to place a bet, you will get a lot of money. If you don't make a move, you will get no money!"
This is a street gambling stall.
Someone tried to bet: "Two cents, bet big!"
Feng Si said happily: "Buy it and leave it. Let's go."
Three dice: one 1, one 3, and one 1.
"Xiao, I'll compensate you two cents!" Feng Si readily threw two cents to the person just now.
He flipped the dice cup and continued to shake it. There was another clattering sound. He paused and the dice cup fell on the table.
"Come on, come on, buy and leave. You can bet big or small as you like. It's okay to gamble your luck and exchange small money for big money."
Three or four more people bought, some big, some small, some winning and some losing.
Feng Si paid out several dozen coins again. He muttered with a gloomy face: "My luck is not very good today. This is a bad bank."
When everyone saw that he indeed lost more than he won, those who loved to take advantage immediately gained the upper hand and began to pressure more and more people.
Feng Si looked gloomy, but there was a smile in his eyes. On the surface, it seemed that many people had won, but he did not lose.
If you bet more money on big, he will give you a small number; if you bet more money on small, he will give you a big number.
He was already very familiar with this kind of deception.
It's just that the crowd was so excited that they didn't notice this detail. They all thought it was a scam and wanted to make a fortune.
Suddenly, a small figure squeezed into the crowd.
A piece of white silver was thrown on the table, revealing his wealth and power: "Bet big!"
Everyone was shocked. This piece of silver must be worth three or four taels, right?
Looking again, it turned out to be a child of five or six years old.
Such a young child knows how to gamble?
When Feng first saw the silver, he was overjoyed, but when he saw who the small figure was, his face suddenly changed.
He put away the dice cup, held up the silver with both hands, and handed it back to the child with a smile: "I'm just playing around, just playing around, I don't want to play anymore, I don't want to play anymore!"
As he said this, he returned the money to those people, closed the table, rolled up the cloth bag, put it on his back, turned around and ran away in panic, as if there was a wolf chasing him.
He ran into the alley, ran for a while, and ran across a street before he stopped, panting.
But when he finally caught his breath and looked up, his whole face became full of misery.
He shouted with a look of despair on his face: "Boss, we really didn't harm anyone this time! They placed bets voluntarily at this street gambling stall. I didn't force them."
Meng Yu smiled and said, "Why are you panicking? I didn't say you harmed anyone."
Feng Si's face was full of tension: "You, you won't hit me?"
Who could believe that this group of hooligans in town would be chased and beaten by this kid whenever they did something bad starting over a year ago.
They tried many methods, ambushing, beating, drugging, tripping...
But none of them succeeded, and instead they were beaten even worse.
Who understands how desperate those days are when you are either being beaten or waiting to be beaten!
They used to cheat, oppress the good, collect protection fees, and eat free meals...
There is nothing they dare not do, as long as they can't think of it. But now, no one dares to do it!
Their bones were beaten loose.
Especially Zhou Laizi, who brought a few people to set up a trap to make a fortune, but before he could succeed, he was beaten up by this kid. He had to lie in bed for three months and even had a limp in one leg.
Now they all turn pale when talking about this kid.
She was clearly just a little brat, but she forced them to call her boss.
He set up gambling on the street because his previous business could no longer make a living and he was really broke, so he wanted to make some extra money.
Meng Yu said, "Well, I won't hit you. Tell me, what's new in town these days?"
Feng Si tried to test: "Does it count if the widow Zhang from the east is having an affair?"
Meng Yu: “…”
She smiled innocently: "Go on!"
But this smile would not let Feng Si let down his guard, and he carefully told him about Widow Zhang's affair.
Seeing that the child didn't get angry, he breathed a sigh of relief and started talking about other things.
The town is so small, and these people just idle around every day, yet they actually know a little bit about everything.
As he was talking, Feng Si saw that the child was actually listening carefully, so he added, "There is one more thing. A few days ago, a child came to us and asked us to help him set up a trap."
"What child? How old? What game?"
"He's about ten years old, a boy, and he seems to be from the county academy." Meng Yu's friendly voice slowly put Feng Si's mind at ease: "He asked us to pretend to catch a girl, and then he would come out to save her. Let him get some bruises on his body, and save the girl. He promised us five taels of silver!"
"You agreed?"
"How dare I!" Feng Si made a bitter face. He was very moved at that time.
But when he thought about how this little devil loved to play the game of hitting people with them, and how painful it was to hit people with his little fists, and how Zhou Laizi, who had been lying in bed for three months and became a cripple, his restless heart was doused with cold water.
"Did your brothers agree to it?"
