Chapter Fifty-two
In the past, Shan Sihua would have been intimidated by the man's rough appearance. But after the changes in his life in the past few years, Shan Sihua today can be said to be bold and careful, not panicking when faced with unexpected situations.
Even when the situation arises, he can still remain extremely calm.
When Shan Sihua heard that the man wanted to pay for himself, Shan Sihua's first reaction was that this man wanted to blackmail him.
As early as a few years ago, Shan Sihua heard from others that there was a kind of gang specializing in extortion that was popular in society. They polished your shoes so that you wouldn't accidentally kick them, and then took the opportunity to ask you for money.
If you don't obey, someone will come out to threaten you with insinuations and ask you to pay for it. In society, this phenomenon is commonly known as "eating for money", also known as "confronting porcelain".
I usually just hear about it, but I didn’t expect that I would run into it on this big ship today.
Shan Sihua looked around at the crowd and couldn't help but feel a little funny. He stared at the man in front of him and asked with interest: "Compensate? Why?"
"Just because you kicked off the leather shoes that Lao Zhixin bought, what's wrong?" The man blew a puff of smoke into Shan Sihua's face and continued arrogantly.
Shan Sihua, who had the smoke sprayed on his face, did not show any timidity and continued with a faint smile: "What if I say I won't compensate?"
"Then you are looking for a fight." The rough man replied sternly with his eyes wide open, which sounded a bit like bluffing.
According to legend, at this time, someone should come out and say some threatening words.
Sure enough, just as the rough man finished speaking, a man in a suit walked out of the crowd and smiled at Shan Sihua: "Brother, just give him some money. Someone kicked him just now.
I refused to pay at first, but ended up getting slapped twice, my face was swollen, and I had to pay in the end.”
It can be seen that the man in the suit has been waiting nearby for a long time. Listening to what he said again, it is basically certain that he and the rough man are in the same group, and they are a legendary gang that makes money.
I don’t know how many accomplices there are in the crowd, but it seems I have to deal with them carefully.
"Oh, how much did he lose?" Shan Sihua asked the man in the suit calmly, but his eyes were looking at the rough man. He wanted to see what tricks these money-grabbers were going to play, and at the same time, he watched closely
The rough man was afraid that he would make a sudden move and catch him off guard.
"It seems to be a hundred yuan." When the man in the suit saw Shan Sihua asking the price, he thought there was a way and quickly answered, looking eagerly at Shan Sihua's pocket.
What the man in the suit said seemed to be a kind reminder to Shan Sihua, but in fact he was trying to lure Shan Sihua to pay. Anyone with a little bit of intelligence could see this, and how could he deceive Shan Sihua, who had already experienced it all?
magnificent?
Don't say it's a hundred yuan, even one yuan, you don't want me to take it out!
Seeing the double act between the man in a suit and the rough man, Shan Sihua was angry and laughing, and cursed in his mind.
At the same time, he quickly thought about countermeasures. If he didn't give him money, they would definitely hit him. He had to take precautions and destroy their prestige before they took action.
Judging from the fact that these two men are both in their thirties, they must usually be idle, cheating and drinking. Most of these people are bullying the weak and afraid of evil. When they meet someone who is stronger than them, they will definitely lose their prestige. To deal with such people
People must not have the slightest weakness.
The fighting scenes he had experienced swirled in his mind like a revolving lantern, and Shan Sihua quickly thought of a countermeasure.
Just when Shan Sihua was about to give the rough man a surprise blow, a man's voice suddenly burst out from the crowd.
"Don't give me any money, don't give me a penny." The speaker was a young man in his twenties, who was also wearing a suit and had long hair. His face reminded Shan Sihua of a Hong Kong star - Alan Tam, Jiang Hu
Known as Principal Tan.
Another person spoke up for him. Shan Sihua looked at him in surprise and thought to himself: Could it be that he is from the same group, pretending to say good things for him?
The long-haired young man who looked exactly like Principal Tan saw Shan Sihua's face full of confusion and distrust in his eyes. He simply walked to the middle, pointed at the rough man, and loudly continued: "Everyone has seen what happened just now. It's obviously this."
A person deliberately stretches his foot too far to trip someone up, but instead asks them to pay for it, which is simply bullying an honest person. So, I can’t give you even a penny of this money.”
Indeed, judging from his appearance alone, Shan Sihua's round face and slender eyes, coupled with his natural naivety, give people the impression that he is an honest young man.
The rough man did not expect that a person would suddenly appear to speak for Shan Sihua, and immediately said sternly: "What does it have to do with you? Who are you?"
"He is none of my people, but it's none of my business if you bully honest people like this." The young man who looked exactly like Principal Tan replied without fear.
"If you're not someone, just go away and stay out of other people's business." The rough man continued: "Be careful, I'm going to stab you."
From these lines of dialogue, it is easy to see that the young man who looks exactly like Principal Tan is not one of them. This makes Shan Sihua a little touched. After all, there are still people who dare to come forward when they see injustice.
"Even if I agree to go away, I'm afraid no one in our village will agree." The long-haired young man continued calmly. A dozen voices in the crowd immediately echoed: "Yes, don't bully us workers.
Honest man."
Following the words, more than a dozen people gathered around, surrounding the rough man and a few others, staring at each other.
Shan Sihua's guess was correct. When the rough man saw so many people gathered around him in great force, he immediately died like an eggplant beaten by frost.
"You're lucky, kid, you have so many people supporting you." The rough man glared at Shan Sihua fiercely, muttered and squeezed out of the crowd. But the man in suit had disappeared at some point.
I originally thought there would be a fight, but I didn't expect the matter to be resolved like this. Shan Sihua glanced at the long-haired young man with gratitude and said thank you.
The long-haired young man changed his arrogant attitude and said with a smile: "It's nothing. Everyone works outside the home. It's not easy to make some money. I can't say anything to cheapen these lazy liars."
With that said, the long-haired young man and Shan Sihua came to the passage deck of the ship and through a brief conversation, they got to know each other somewhat.
The long-haired young man who looks exactly like Principal Tan is really named Tan, named Tan Kai. He has a sister named Tan Sisi. Like many migrant workers from the countryside, just after the Chinese New Year, the brother and sister went with other people in the village
Make money in the South.
Tan Kai had been watching the rough man's trick of cheating money just now. Seeing that Shan Sihua was thin in body, simple in appearance, and alone, he was afraid that he would suffer a loss, so he couldn't help but step forward and take advantage of the large number of people to help.
Shan Sihua strengthened his reputation and scared away rough men who wanted to engage in fraud and extortion.
Knowing that Shan Sihua was going to the south alone, Tan Kai warmly invited Shan Sihua to go with them, promising to have someone to take care of him.
