Lookout Men and Widows

Chapter 109



Chapter 109

Huang Mao and the others were taken away by the police, and You Ming turned on his mobile phone to read the report. The earthquake and hail reports almost filled the home pages of all news media, but the good news is that so far there have been no casualties, and no buildings have been destroyed. The news of the collapse, even the news said it was a miracle.

You Ming breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Yuan and Yang Rongbao helped Mr. Zhou and Uncle Zheng into the room to let them rest. Jiang Yuan repaired the collapsed wall with the effort of raising his hand, and everything returned to its original position.

You's father and You's mother called, and after confirming that You Ming was fine, they said they were rushing back.

"Let's go out and buy some food first." You Ming said to Zhou Yuan, "You guys take care of them here, they probably can't order takeaway right now, but I don't know if the restaurants outside can still open."

Zhou Yuan nodded at You Ming: "You go."

Yang Rongbao also said: "You don't need to buy any meals, just buy some bread and the like."

You Ming and Jiang Yu'an went out together, thinking of what happened just now, You Ming still had lingering fears.

"Fortunately you're here." You Ming took Jiang Yu'an's hand, and he suddenly found that Jiang Yu'an's hand was dry and at the same time - warm.

warmth?

You Ming raised his head suddenly: "You...have a body temperature."

Jiang Yu'an pursed his lips and said with a smile: "I just found out now?"

You Ming was pleasantly surprised: "When will it be available?"

Jiang Yu'an: "Just yesterday."

You Ming thought for a while, then sighed: "It should have been a celebration for you."

Jiang Yu'an held You Ming's hand tightly, and his sweet words did not come out of the mountain for a long time, at this time he said softly: "You are by my side is the best celebration."

You Ming was taken aback for a moment, then slowly lowered his head.

Seeing that You Ming was depressed, Jiang Yu'an asked, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

You Ming shook his head: "It's not that I'm unhappy...it's just that I didn't help much this time..."

He thought he was strong enough, but what happened to Lin Yu gave him a blow. He was not as strong as he imagined. When he really met a strong opponent, he struggled to protect himself.

You Ming always hoped that one day he would be able to protect Jiang Yu'an by himself, but now it seems that that day is far away.

Jiang Yu'an's tone was extremely gentle: "You are already very good. Think about Zhou Yuan, and then think about Yang Rongbao. Compared with them, you are not even a star. You can't use me as a reference."

You Ming looked at Jiang Yu'an seriously: "Then can I catch up with you in the future?"

Jiang Yu'an said softly: "Of course, when you are 30 years old, you will definitely be better than me now."

You Ming is satisfied, as long as he can find a clear goal for himself, he can go on unswervingly.

The vendors on the street had already left, and only the stalls were left in place, badly smashed by the hail. Many residents were sitting on the side of the road, and now they dare not go upstairs.

You Ming saw an old lady sitting by the side of the road, and asked, "Why don't you go home?"

The old lady's hair was messy, and she had slippers on one foot, but not on the other. She looked confused: "Can I go back? My wife said there should be aftershocks after the earthquake. What if aftershocks come?"

You Ming wanted to say that there would be no aftershocks.

But he shouldn't say this, so he can only endure it.

The old lady sighed: "My grandson is still at home!"

You Ming stared wide-eyed, forgot about his grandson when he ran for his life?

The old lady's daughter-in-law said next to her: "My mother is talking about our golden retriever. It is old and fat. It can't run by itself, and we can't hold it. Hey, I should have bought a small trailer for it. .”

The daughter-in-law also enthusiastically invited You Ming to join them in a table. Someone risked their lives to move mahjong out of the house, and they even borrowed tables and chairs from the restaurant on the first floor to pass the time on the street. With no aftershocks, they were ready to go home.

You Ming rejected her offer.

So the daughter-in-law went to ask someone else.

"It seems that everyone is not very scared?" You Ming was a little strange. The earthquake and hailstorm were scary just thinking about it, but people didn't have much reaction.

It's just that there is a supermarket on the side of the road selling mineral water. It used to sell for two yuan, but now it sells for five yuan a bottle.

It's very profiteering.

The boss is a middle-aged bald head with a beer belly. Mineral water is five yuan a bottle. The original five yuan bread sold for twenty, and there are still many people around to buy it. There is no way. It is more expensive than what this boss sells.

You Ming could only go forward to buy ten bottles of mineral water and twenty pieces of bread. The bread will not go bad after a few days, and you can continue to eat it if you take it home and eat it all day.

Although it is expensive, the attitude of the boss is not good.

Someone said: "It's not messy now! You just shout prices!"

The boss snorted: "Do you like to buy it or not, don't get in the way, let the people behind buy it!"

The man had no choice but took out the money: "Who said I won't buy it? I want four bottles of water and two breads."

The boss gave him a sideways look: "Get out of the way, I won't sell it to you."

The man was a young man, but looking thin, he was furious: "What do you mean?"

The boss's attitude is very bad: "What do you mean by me? You hinder my business and want me to sell it to you. How shameless you are!"

The young man blushed with anger, and pointed at the boss's nose: "You, you raise the price indiscriminately! Shameless!"

The boss rolled his eyes: "What's wrong with me just raising the price indiscriminately? Don't buy it if you have the guts, and starve to death with your guts!"

The young man pursed his lips, his face turned red and white, and he was very angry.

The boss continued: "Get out of the way, can you understand people's words?"

The young man suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the boss by the collar. The crowd behind the queue was also startled. The young man gritted his teeth and asked, "Are you selling it or not?"

After all, the boss has a larger tonnage and is stronger than the young man. He grabbed the young man's wrist and easily overturned the young man: "You still want to hit someone? You don't even look at you as a weakling!"

As he said that, the boss raised his fist, ready to give this weak chicken a good look. He dealt with this, and no one dared to make trouble anymore.

The young man was a programmer and had a bunch of occupational diseases. After being knocked over to the ground, he became dizzy and had no strength in his body. Seeing that the boss's fist was about to come down, he couldn't dodge it and could only close his eyes.

But after closing his eyes and waiting for a few seconds, the pain did not come. The young man opened one eye and looked carefully.

A good-looking young man grabbed the boss by the wrist.

The young man's eyes were cold, and his tone was even colder: "It's unreasonable for you to take advantage of the disaster to sell things at a high price. If someone raises it, even if you turn a blind eye, you shouldn't have this attitude."

The boss wanted to take back his hand, but the strength of the other party was too great for him to take it back at all. He gritted his molars and said, "What are you? I want you to meddle in your own business? I also risked my life from the shop. What's wrong with charging a higher price?!"

You Ming: "It's not that bad, but if you hit someone, it's not very good."

The boss looked at the young man sitting paralyzed on the ground, and said to You Ming, "He came to find fault first!"

You Ming: "He didn't find fault, he just raised reasonable doubts."

The boss yelled: "Then it is reasonable for me not to sell it to him!"

You Ming thinks that the boss is a genius of logic, and it makes sense when he says this about things that don't make sense.

The selling price is expensive because he has to risk his life to get the goods.

Not to sell to the young man, because he has the freedom not to sell.

As for the beating, it was the young man who provoked first.

You Ming said to the boss seriously: "You are really a waste of talent to open a supermarket."

The boss was taken aback for a moment, and said hesitantly, "Thank you?"

The boss suddenly couldn't figure out what was going on with this person who appeared out of nowhere.

What are you here for? !

You Ming let go of the boss's hand, and he took out two bottles of water and two breads from the water and bread he bought and handed them to the young man: "Take it, cash or transfer is fine."

The young man looked at You Ming adoringly: "I'll transfer the money."

As he spoke, the young man swiped You Ming’s QR code, and was about to transfer more, when You Ming said, “Just transfer it to me at the original price.”

The young man quickly said: "Then I'll give you the price he sells for. I'm not particularly poor."

He worked hard for a month and still earned more than 1 yuan. Either he was reluctant to part with the little money, or he felt aggrieved and couldn't hold back his anger.

After thanking you again and again, the young man left with water and bread.

You Ming walked back to Jiang Yu'an's side again, and he walked a long way before saying, "I was almost persuaded by that boss just now."

He only realized now that the boss's actions were no different from sending money to the country.

Moreover, twice the price increase is reasonable, three times is a bit exaggerated, and four times is too much.

Jiang Yu'an laughed lowly, reached out and rubbed You Ming's head, messing up You Ming's hair, and said: "Don't worry, this is ill-gotten gain, the more he earns, the faster he will be unlucky. "

You Ming was about to speak when a childish voice suddenly came from his shoulder: "I cursed him! Cursed that he had diarrhea and didn't have time to take off his pants!"

You Ming: "..."

Is there any novelty curse?

You Ming looked down at the evil spirit on his shoulder and asked, "Where have you been these few days?"

The evil spirit is very honest: "I found a place to take refuge when I sensed danger! I believe you will be able to get through this alone, and I am praying for you all the time!"

You Ming: "... Is it useful for you to pray for blessings?"

Evil spirits pray?

The evil spirit opened a pair of big innocent eyes, and said obediently: "It's useless."

You Ming: "Then you still pray?"

The evil spirit said solemnly: "This is psychological comfort, I have heard human beings say it."

You Ming: "Comfort who?"

The evil spirit: "Comfort me! I can only come back and live a good life if you are fine!"

The corner of You Ming's mouth twitched: "You are such a clever little ghost."

The evil spirit suddenly stopped talking.

You Ming raised his head and asked Jiang Yu'an: "What happened to it? It suddenly became stupid."

Jiang Yu'an looked at the evil spirit, the evil spirit's cotton candy-like body trembled, his tone was very cheerful, and he said happily: "Oh, I'm such a clever little ghost!"

You Ming and Jiang Yu'an looked at each other.

The evil spirit transformed into two thin arms, crossed his non-existent waist, and said triumphantly, "It's driving me crazy!"
