Chapter 63 Greed

Zhu Hongping is fussy and sarcastic, and likes to gossip behind his back, and has a very bad reputation in the village. In addition, Li Zhijie is in his twenties and is not doing business. Child.

Li Zhijie said: "Mom, go to my sister, she must be rich, you can borrow fifty from her casually, and make up a whole hundred for me."

Zhu Hongping has always been obedient to his son, so he really called a motorcycle to go to Ling's house.

But unfortunately, Li Li went shopping with someone, and Ling Chunhua was at home.

Zhu Hongping turned Li Li's house upside down, found nothing except a few cents of coins, and finally took away Li Li's candy.

Li Zhijie was very unhappy when he learned that he had not borrowed any money, but seeing that the sun was about to set, he had no choice but to carry his bags and set off for the entrance of the village.

Wishing Hongping off all the way worried, "Zhijie, you have to be careful about everything outside, and when you get there, remember to call your sister to report her safety..."

"I see, Mom, you are very verbose."

Far away, he saw a silver van parked at the entrance of the village, and Li Zhijie subconsciously quickened his pace.

After the mother and son approached, a middle-aged man got out of the van, looked at the mother and son and asked, "Are you going to the Suzhou leather factory?"

"Yes, yes, it's me."

Looking at the golden necklace on the neck of the middle-aged man, Li Zhijie replied with his eyes shining.

The middle-aged man nodded to Li Zhijie with a smile, opened the passenger door of the van, and signaled Li Zhijie to get in the car.

After Li Zhijie got into the car, he found something stuck under his buttocks. He picked it up and saw that it was a wrench more than half a foot long. He didn't care and put the wrench under the seat.

After the van drove away, Zhu Hongping heaved a long sigh of relief.

Now it's all right, my son has gone to work in other places, and even if the girl comes to the door, there is nothing he can do about her.

After waiting for a year and a half, when her son comes back after earning a lot of money, she will find a way to marry her son a daughter-in-law so that she can embrace her grandson as soon as possible.

Zhu Hongping became more and more beautiful as she thought about it, and even hummed an out-of-tune tune.

In the van, Li Zhijie chatted excitedly with the middle-aged man, "Boss, what's your name?"

"My surname is Xu, you can call me Brother Xu."

"Brother Xu, is your leather factory really making so much money? I think the necklace on your neck costs at least a thousand dollars."

Brother Xu gave him a meaningful look, "Little brother, you, you need to gain some knowledge. What is a gold necklace? See my watch, it's almost 10,000 younger."

What? A watch is worth 10,000 yuan?

I’m afraid that if you wear it, you can go to heaven?

Seemingly seeing Li Zhijie's ignorance, Brother Xu took the initiative to introduce: "This is a Rolex 18K gold mechanical watch, which can't be bought in China if you have money. I entrusted a business partner to bring it back from Hong Kong. The watch money plus customs duties. What, it cost more than 9,000 in total, which was the market price of the year before last, and now it is sold on the black market, and the price can be 10 to 20% higher."

Li Zhijie has never seen what 10,000 yuan looks like in his life. He was so excited that his heart was thumping, and he couldn't move his eyes from his watch.

"Little brother, please help me take down the cigarette, it's in the storage box in front of you, just pull it out." After a while, Brother Xu said suddenly.

Li Zhijie followed the other party's words and opened the storage box of the passenger seat, and was stunned by the contents inside.

In the small storage box, there are seven or eight stacks of cash neatly stacked, all of which are brand new with a face value of 10 yuan. It looks like it has just been taken out of the bank.

When handing the cigarette to Brother Xu, Li Zhijie was excited and curious, "Brother Xu, are you not afraid of being stolen if you put so much money in the car?"

Brother Xu smiled, "It's only a few thousand yuan, and it's not a lot. My friend just returned it to me this afternoon. I'm not in a hurry to pick you up, and I didn't have time to deposit it in the bank. Just take it back to Suzhou City. It's okay when I go back." To pay workers."

Not many seven or eight thousand?

Li Zhijie's eyes couldn't help falling on Xu Ge's watch, as if a huge stone had been cast in his heart, he couldn't calm down for a long time.

Brother Xu opened the cigarette case with one hand, handed one to Li Zhijie, took a bite himself, and then took out the lighter to light a cigarette.

Before the cigarette was lit, the car body suddenly bumped and shook the lighter in Brother Xu's hand.

Just as Brother Xu bent down to pick up the lighter, a stone the size of a basket suddenly appeared in the middle of the road ahead.

"Be careful!"

Li Zhijie yelled to remind him, but it was too late.

With a "boom", the front of the van hit the stone directly, and the huge impact force bounced the bodies of the two people up and down.

When Li Zhijie recovered from his dizziness, he was surprised to find Brother Xu lying motionless on the steering wheel.

He was startled and frightened, and cautiously stretched out his hand to push the other party, "Brother Xu? Brother Xu?"

The other party didn't respond even after shouting a few times. Li Zhijie tried his best to help him up, and was immediately taken aback.

Brother Xu's face was covered with blood, and his breath was very weak, as if he would die at any moment.

Li Zhijie wanted to get out of the car in a hurry to ask for help, but his eyes were attracted by Brother Xu's wrist hanging on the steering wheel.

The golden sunset shines through the car window, making the pure gold dial of Rolex glisten.

This watch is worth 10,000 yuan, and there are 70,000 to 8,000 in the storage box, which adds up to 20,000. This money is enough for him to eat and drink for a lifetime.

At this moment, the heart of greed is constantly expanding, like a raging fire, swallowing up Li Zhijie's limited rationality.

After Li Zhijie ran away with the watch and money, Brother Xu, who was leaning on the back of the chair, slowly opened his eyes.

He calmly took out the plasma pack hidden in his chest, wiped the rest of the blood on his body, threw the empty plasma pack into the ditch on the side of the road, and then picked up the wrench that Li Zhijie put under the seat , knocked **** the head twice.

After finishing all this, Brother Xu dropped the wrench, opened the car door and stumbled towards the direction where Li Zhijie was escaping.

Li Zhijie didn't run far before he met two villagers from the next village. There were a lot of luggage piled up at his feet, and he seemed to be going out to work.

"Li Zhijie, why are you alone, boss Xu? Didn't he say to pick you up?"

Li Zhijie originally wanted to tell the truth about the car accident, but just as he opened his mouth, he swallowed the words again.

Because he thought of a possibility, if the person surnamed Xu was really dead, and he stole the other person’s watch and money, would the police suspect that he was the murderer and robber?

At that time, even if he jumps into the Yellow River, he won't be able to clean himself up, and he might even get shot!

"I don't know any Boss Xu, you heard me wrong."

After speaking, Li Zhijie ran forward regardless of the reaction of the two villagers.

It’s a pity that I was afraid of something, Li Zhijie just ran for a while, and Brother Xu caught up covered in blood, shouting: "Catch him, he hurt me, and robbed my watch and money!"
