Chapter 71: How many dollars a month are you willing to play with?
"It would be great if Qi Tongwei was here." Gao Xiaoqin's eyes turned red, and she couldn't help but shout out: "Qi Tongwei, I miss you so much, where are you?"
"I'm here."
Suddenly, a man's voice came from behind Gao Xiaoqin.
Gao Xiaoqin was startled and she turned back quickly.
Sure enough, the man who spoke just now was not Qi Tongwei at all, just as she thought.
Instead, he was a wretched middle-aged man with a face full of acne scars and large pores.
Next to him, there was another equally wretched boy.
The boy rubbed his hands, looked at Gao Xiaoqin and licked his lips.
"You...who are you?"
Gao Xiaoqin took two steps back in horror.
I didn't hold the luggage in my hand firmly and it fell to the ground with a "thump".
"Hey, sister, I'm the Qi Tongwei you just mentioned."
The wretched boy rushed forward and raised his right hand to cover Gao Xiaoqin's mouth and nose.
There was something in his hand, a white powder, a kind of drug, similar to methamphetamine, but much less powerful, and its name was cocaine.
It has powerful effects of intoxication, hallucination and dizziness.
Once a person inhales it, he will fall into a coma.
The degree of coma depends on the amount inhaled.
"Sure thing, Lao Wu, you're getting more and more skillful. Hurry up! Put it on and don't let anyone see it."
The middle-aged man took out the snakeskin bag tucked behind his back and quickly put Gao Xiaoqin into it.
"Thank you for the compliment, Brother Bie. This is all thanks to the effectiveness of your medicine."
"Old Five, don't thank me. If you want to thank someone, we all have to thank Uncle Dong.
Without him, we wouldn’t be able to be bridegrooms every night.”
"Yes, yes, Brother Turtle is right."
After packing the sacks, Lin Laowu and Lin Laobie left contentedly.
In the square of the train station, Gao Xiaoqin's luggage was knocked over and scattered all over the ground.
……
Tazhai.
Qi Tongwei and the other two continued walking in the town. The further they went, the smoother the road became.
It seems that this place is divided into different levels.
The roads outside are full of potholes and it hurts your feet to walk on them.
It's smooth sailing inside and as steady as an old dog.
At this moment, a man in black wearing a baseball cap and a mask jumped out from the alley.
"I say, three of you, stop going any further, follow me and have a cup of tea."
"who?!"
Qi Tongwei subconsciously touched the pistol at his waist.
"Don't get excited." The man in black pressed his hand down and said, "Don't forget, this is our territory.
Do you think you can get out alive if a gunshot is heard?"
Qi Tongwei was startled.
He didn't expect that the other party was fully aware of their intentions. Who leaked the news?
"Don't resist in vain. If you want to live, just listen to me."
"Okay, we listen to you."
Qi Tongwei pretended to be relaxed and followed the man in black.
But after he took several steps, he found that Wang Genji and Zhao Tianri did not follow him.
When I turned around, I found that they were still standing there in a daze.
"Let's go?!" Qi Tongwei was a little angry: "What's there to be afraid of? If we can talk, it means everything is fine."
Wang Genji and Zhao Tianri then moved their feet, leaving wet shoe prints with every step.
Qi Tongwei was helpless, thinking that these two guys were really useless. They were scared to death before anything happened.
The man in black led the way to the entrance of the Lin Family Ancestral Hall.
"Our Uncle Dong has prepared some delicious hot tea inside, please go in quickly."
After saying that, the man in black continued walking forward and disappeared at the end of the alley.
Qi Tongwei looked towards the ancestral hall.
In the hall, sat a middle-aged man wearing round glasses.
A soft and elegant breath instantly came to my face.
Lin Yaodong said to the outside: "Dear guests from afar, now that you are here, why are you still standing at the door? Come in and sit down.
You must be exhausted after all this journey. I have some excellent white tea, picked and roasted before Qingming Festival. Come, sit down and taste it together."
"Captain Qi, is he talking to us?"
"That shouldn't be the case. He was talking about the guests. We...we should be his enemies."
Qi Tongwei cleared his throat: "Okay, since you have invited me, we will not be polite."
Qi Tongwei took the lead, slowly and leisurely.
Wang Genji and Zhao Tianri felt as if their legs were filled with lead and their feet felt like they weighed a thousand pounds, so they moved very slowly.
"please."
Lin Yaodong pointed to a wooden chair nearby.
"Thank you, sir."
Qi Tongwei sat down.
Wang Genji and Zhao Tianri standing by didn't dare to sit down at all. They stood there shivering and swaying back and forth.
"Haha." Lin Yaodong smiled: "In our weather, the temperature drops sharply at night. I'm afraid you two are a little cold."
"..."
Qi Tongwei was a little embarrassed as he had been through a lot.
But these two are still newcomers.
In their perception, Lin Yaodong in front of them is a typical gangster boss.
On the surface, it seems calm, but in reality, with just one word, he can call over a large group of thugs and kill them in minutes.
On the surface, this looks like drinking tea, but in reality it is a typical Hongmen Banquet.
In fact, what they thought was right. It was easy to kill them in Lin Yaodong's territory.
But, that's not the case at all.
Qi Tongwei knew that Lin Yaodong might know that they were here to test the waters, not to wipe out the whole group.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have sent someone to invite them and serve them tea.
His main purpose may be to win them over and give them some benefits.
Gold, silver, jewelry, beautiful women and money, just shut your mouth first.
If you are willing to cooperate for a long time, then I will develop into an insider in the Public Security Bureau.
Qi Tongwei is 100% sure that there will be a show later.
This Lin Family Ancestral Hall looks like an ancestral hall, but it actually hides unfathomable mysteries. Who knows what's going on inside.
"Tea, you're welcome."
Lin Yaodong raised the tea bowl and took a sip, and Qi Tongwei did the same.
Lin Yaodong nodded with satisfaction: "Is your basic salary enough to cover your monthly expenses? And how much pocket money can you leave for yourself?"
Qi Tongwei replied: "Not much, just enough to supplement the family income."
"How many hundred dollars a month?"
"No, just a few dozen dollars."
"Only a few dozen bucks a month, what's the point of living like that?"
"Haha." Qi Tongwei sneered: "Sir, you are wrong.
How can this be called risking one’s life? This is just our job.”
“But your job is to cut off other people’s financial resources?
Don't you know that cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing their parents?"
"Parents? If this kind of money is from parents,
What kind of incompetent parents must be to raise such a scumbag child?"
"Young man, you are not old, but your mouth is quite old.
Since you speak so clearly,
Then why don’t you work in your bureau as a propaganda officer?
Why should we suffer and go to the countryside to visit people in person?"
"Everything has to be done by someone. If you don't do it, I will do it. If I don't do it, he will do it.
Someone is always going to do it, so why should I hide?
Just like people grow old and die, there is no way to avoid it.”
