When I woke up, it was already 10 o'clock in the morning, and I was very tired, like running a few thousand meter marathon.
I got out of bed a little weak. After washing and gargling, he left the house in his coat. In the twinkling of an eye, it was September. The weather began to cool. There was a chill in the air. I went into a noodle shop, ordered a bowl of noodles and sat down.
It's very cold in the hotel. There's not a lot of people. I remember this store is very popular. Because the beef noodles in this restaurant are delicious.
"Boss, why is your shop so cold?" The shopkeeper is a fifty year old man. There is a son under the knee. This restaurant is used for the old man to do something when he has nothing to do.
The old man took a plate of pickles and put them on the table. "I don't plan to open this shop any more. It will close at the end of next week," he said softly
I eat noodles a little doubt to ask“ Why? The hotel is running well. Why not? "
The old man sat on the chair and said slowly, "my old son has found a place for me. I bought a new house and let me move in and enjoy my happiness. "
"That's a good thing, but what about your store?"
"I don't know. The location here is not good. It's untenable to open a shop without a few years' effort. " The old man is right. There are ordinary residential buildings nearby, and this hotel is not the only one. There's a lot of competition. It's better to start other businesses.
The old man got up and took a bottle of drink from the freezer. Then he said with a smile: "Xiao Liu, I remember you opened a shop in the city center a while ago. Why not? "
"I don't like to work, and I don't earn money. There's too much competition. " What kind of medicine does this old man sell in gourd? If you have something to say, just say it.
"Oh, you see, although my store looks big, it's very cheap. If you're interested, you can think about it, and I'll make a pension." I also summed it up last night. When the old man died, the craftsmanship of this shop still needs to be passed on. At the beginning, I returned the shop that Tang Guofeng had made for me in order to find another way to make money.
Because the old man had not died at that time, but now it is over. If this craft is not passed on, it will be lost.
"Let me think about it. I have some spare money, but not much."
The old man said softly, "it's easy. You can give me a hundred thousand and two hundred thousand for my shop. It doesn't cost much to decorate. My shop just finished decoration last year."
Two hundred thousand is not much. The shops here are also very expensive. I can add it all up. It's not a loss of craftsmanship to open a paper binding shop, which specializes in selling articles for the dead.
"Master, that's settled. I'll get the money in two days, and we'll pay the money and the house at the same time."
The old man was immediately happy and said with a smile, "that's settled. I'll find someone to sell the tables and chairs here. I promise I won't lose you."
This bowl of noodles is invited by the old man. I went out of the noodle shop and came home. As soon as I got out of the elevator, I saw Chu Lingyun and Fang ya come over. I suddenly think of a thing, last time I saw the black air between the eyebrows of their sisters, I took a closer look, and the black air was still there.
However, Han Mengchen's affair delayed this affair. It has been almost a month. The blackness of the two sisters has not affected themselves.
This can be strange, do these two sisters have something to ward off evil spirits?
"Brother Liu, what's the matter with you?"
I thought back and whispered, "nothing. Where are you two going?"
Fang Ya said softly, "we'll go to the hospital to see our classmates. If there's nothing wrong, we'll go first."
The two sisters went into the elevator and went downstairs. I opened the door and went home. Suddenly, the house is cold. My words last night made Tang Yufeng angry. Otherwise, I can call her out to have a chat with me.
I sat down on the sofa and took out the token. After watching it for a long time, there was nothing special about the token. The two of them wanted this one wholeheartedly, and the token was worthless. What's the use of it.
"Ding Dong... Ding Dong!" A doorbell rang. I got up, went to the door and opened the door. Guan Rou, wearing a police uniform, is standing outside the door with one or two boxed meals in her hand. "Why don't you invite me in?"
"What are you doing here?" When she came, it must be no good. She didn't have anything to do. She also bought me a box lunch. She certainly didn't have a good heart.
"I bought chicken leg rice. Eat it while it's hot." Guan Rou put the lunch box on the table, then poured a glass of water, "where have you been these days, how come you don't know how to find me?"
I closed the door and said softly, "there's something at home. I don't have a mobile phone. How can I find you?"
"Can't you buy one without a mobile phone?"
"I don't know where to sell it, and I won't buy it. If you have time, you might as well go with me." It's time for me to get a mobile phone. It's really inconvenient to find someone if there's anything.
"I'll take you to buy it after dinner." Guan Rou sat down on the chair and handed me the lunch box. "Eat it quickly... It's cold."
I curled my mouth and said softly, "I've just finished eating for a while. If I'm not hungry, I'll put it first."
"So... Did you get a job?"
I said softly, "not yet. What's the matter?"
Guan Rou said softly, "I have a friend whose company recruits people. Do you want to go and have a look?"
I took a sip of water and said with a smile, "if you have anything to say, is there another case?"
"No, there's no case." Guan Rou lowers her head and eats chicken leg rice. She says something about it. As soon as I saw her eyes a little flustered, I knew there must be something in it.
"If you don't say it, I'm going to open a new shop. Let your friends find someone else."
Guan Rou took a sip of water and said with a smiley face, "in fact, it's nothing to you."
Like her, I stretched out my hand and took the tobacco pot on the incense table, lit it up and took a puff, "do you want to tell me, buy me food and find me a job, what are you doing with these empty heads?"
Guan Rou said softly, "I'm in trouble. Can you help me or not?"
"No help, no help!" I smoked a cigarette, this one almost choked me to death, "what's this old man smoking, big smoke? So strong!"
"By the way, there's something for you." Guan Rou took out an envelope from her pocket and handed it to me. I reached for it and opened it. There was a stack of red banknotes in it, about several thousand yuan.
"What do you mean, pay me?"
"It's the hard work you did for me last time. There are 2000 yuan in it. Mengchen asked me to give it to you. Thank you for your help."
I said with a smile, "Why are you so polite? It's all about your own people. Talking about money hurts your feelings."
Guan Rou said coldly, "give it to me. I'll take it."
"Forget it, I'll take it reluctantly." I put the money in my pocket and then asked, "how's Han Mengchen recently? Are you ok?"
"Look at you like this. Mengchen has gone to other places to study. It will take some time to come back. You can't see it." I didn't say I wanted to see her. How could this woman make me speechless!
Guan Rou's face changed slightly and said, "give me a happy word. Can I help you or not?"
"Give me more money, I'll think about it."
"Three thousand..."
"Five thousand..."
"Four thousand... Plus a meal."
"Deal!" No one in the world works for nothing. There is no such rule since ancient times.
I changed my clothes, took my knapsack, put all the magic weapons in my knapsack, and followed Guan Rou out of the house. With these treasures, I have a bottom in my heart.
"Here's the thing. We talk as we walk." Guan Rou opened the door, I jumped on the car, the car started slowly.
"A week ago, our police received a report. Every night at a crossroad in the west of the city center, someone said they hit a ghost car."
"And the driver in charge of the night shift is the same. He often pulls ghost guests, and the money he receives is also Ming coin."
"Is there a prank?"
"I thought so at first, but later we investigated the surveillance video on the taxi and found some strange things, so we want you to go with me to have a look. If it's a ghost, you can help me. If there's a prank, we'll leave it to the police."
