Chapter XI - Big Brother!
Apprehension, uneasiness, and a little bit of joy and confusion, this might be how Zhou Ze felt along the way when he took a taxi to the outskirts of Tongcheng.
He is short of money, very short of money, but he is not short of big money, he needs big money is not much use, at least for the time being, is not much use.
Because of the resurrection from the dead, the entanglements of the previous life, the trouble of this life, he needs a sum of money to solve, and after that, it is a long term solution, not a wasteful indulgence of life.
For example, leave the Lin family, although Lin Evening Autumn is very beautiful and very temperamental, but he is really lazy to go back to that home again, we have no skin to skin, he did not really enjoy, it looks like Xu Le that goods also did not really enjoy, naturally talk about what is owed;
So there is no psychological pressure to say "bye-bye".
But leave that home, you have to make some preparations, you have to have a place to stay, but also have to buy a slightly better quality freezer, Zhou Ze dare not go to the second-hand market to get out of the freezer, in case there is really a problem with what they lie inside the results of the results of the sleep to play with themselves to death is not a big loss?
Money!
To be a ghost, you also need money.
But listen to just that person to Xu Le call the feeling, let Zhou Ze and some anxiety, Xu Le a modern city son-in-law identity, wimpy to the home by the in-laws stomping on the face, wimpy to and his wife to sleep in separate beds, the result is actually a hidden yakuza big brother?
Well, this sense of picture conflict is really exciting, but also very consistent with the style of the American drama, bull characters always have a let a person feel very common reality identity.
For example, Spider-Man is a middle school student and Superman is a reporter for a newspaper.
So how does one handle the situation?
How to get rid of that gang of drugs?
Zhou Ze did not want to let his identity "tainted", because it means endless trouble, the real world police on their own tracking is not Xu Le can easily deal with, not to mention the old man and the faceless woman had shouted "will find and will catch you! They'll find and catch you."
A little headache, also a little uncomfortable, but Zhou Ze still came to the abandoned small fertilizer factory.
There were two people squatting in front of the fertilizer factory, one wearing a somewhat worn out military coat and one wearing a cheap, poor quality suit.
The two men squatted there with a cigarette in their mouths, gulping down smoke.
Zhou Ze paid the fare and got out of the car, the other person directly stood up and took the initiative to walk over.
"Our boss is waiting for you." The man in the military coat said in a deep voice.
Zhou Ze nodded and then followed the military coat inside, while the man in the suit continued to squat there and smoke, as if looking out.
After walking in, Zhou Ze saw a fat man wearing a gold chain and picking his bald head was sitting on a plastic chair and pouring himself a drink, when he saw Zhou Ze come over, the fat man immediately stood up and said.
"Brother Xu, you finally came."
The fat man was very big, one meter eight and a half, the gold chain was very thick and appeared to be very pompous, and the gold dust rubbed out by the gold chain on the neck side was even more pompous.
"Where are the goods?"
Zhou Ze put his hands behind his back and crossed his fingers slightly, there were only three people here, it was not a big problem to put them down together, but what to do after that? Hand it over to the police then wouldn't he himself be confessed as well?
Lynch them yourself? Wipe them out on behalf of the moon? It didn't seem good either, with his sensitive identity, if he killed someone at random, there might be the same backlash as if he saved someone at random, he wasn't willing to try it easily.
"Brother Xu is still as refreshing as before!"
Fatty wiped his mouth, then reached out and patted Zhou Ze on the shoulder.
The corners of Zhou Ze's mouth twitched as he took a deep breath, forcing himself not to slap the fatty's big greasy fat hand down.
"Come, here!"
Fatty made an inviting gesture and led Zhou Ze to a small storehouse in the backyard.
After walking in.
Zhou Ze's pupils contracted violently.
The goods piled up like a small mountain were covered with black oil paper bags.
Zhou Ze hadn't done anything illegal before, but it was clear that with this much goods, if judged according to the law, it was enough for him to be shot back and forth a few hundred times, and the peanuts could make his stomach swell.
"It's not just Tongcheng, right?" Zhou Ze actually wanted to ask, did you guys just come back from robbing a warlord from the Golden Triangle?
"Brother Xu, that's for sure, Tongcheng is still too small, this batch of goods, will eventually use Tongcheng as a springboard to flow into Shanghai." Fatty stretched his waist, "This time, let's seize the time and hurry to digest the goods, we can make a big profit."
Zhou Ze reached out and touched his forehead, worried, "It's hard to digest it in a short period of time, right?"
After all, it's not selling cabbage, you ride a tricycle with a tweeter to shout, "There are drugs for sale!"
"This brother Xu you rest assured, we only need to distribute this batch of goods to the following people on the line, although we do not sell our own high profits, but wins in the speed of fast, shipping is guaranteed, and so on this batch of finished, we go to get a batch again." The fat man said.
Xu Le ah Xu Le, you even drug cartel network are built up, you can really bullish big ......
A big shot like this was actually clubbed to death by that douchebag in order to grab three hundred dollars!
"Brother Xu, come and take a look, what's the texture of this batch."
Fatty said and lifted the oil paper bag on top.
Then Zhou Ze's face revealed a look of surprise.
Because what he saw was not a mountain of drugs, but a pile of books and CDs.
Could it be that the drugs were in the crevices of the books?
"Brother Xu, dragging the blessing of your classmates, it was easy to get my hands on this batch of goods, these CD-ROMs are all popular movies that are still in theaters on the screen, and I also purposely made a few extra copies of the third grade movies to go in, and these pirated books and romance novels, they are also bestsellers on the market;
There's also Brother Xu's expanded version of Bai Jie's backstory that you purposely wrote in twenty two million words, a lot of the downlines have booked this one in advance, so there's no worry about selling it."
"The goods you mentioned, are these?" Zhou Ze asked Fatty.
"Right?" Fatty froze for a moment, "That's all."
Disappointed.
Very disappointed.
Very disappointed.
At the same time, he felt so ashamed.
Xu Le was still Xu Le after all, he actually continued Bai Jie's story himself for the sake of these pirated stuff selling well.
And he even wrote a two million word sequel.
Just how idle is he ......
"How much can I spare?" Zhou Ze opened his mouth and asked, "I'm going to withdraw."
When you partner up for business, there should be a capital investment.
"What? Brother Xu, you're planning to quit?" The fat man said with some surprise, "We're waiting to make money now, you're quitting at this moment?"
"Well, this matter is somewhat inconsistent with the core values, I don't want to do it anymore."
Zhou Ze said seriously, he didn't want to take the slightest risk, especially before organizing his current life, he didn't want to get involved in any vortex that might exist.
"......" Fatty.
"......" military coat.
"Brother Xu has a high awareness, I admire, pre, Brother Xu you participate in the stock ......"
The fat man stretched out four fingers, said, "Twenty thousand dollars."
"Twenty thousand on twenty thousand, the money to me, the following, and I have nothing to do." Zhou Ze was also too lazy to bother about this, to have twenty thousand dollars, it was also considered to have solved the current pressing problem.
"Alright, twenty thousand dollars I still have here." Fatty nodded and went to get the money.
About a quarter of an hour later, Zhou Ze had twenty thousand dollars in his pocket and hit the internet car to start returning to the city.
He did not rush back to the bookstore first, but went to the electrical market, spent more than 10,000 yuan to buy a freezer, this freezer is generally businessmen to store ingredients meat, and is also considered to be inside the more upscale category, Zhou Ze did not spare the money, after all, they will have to rely on it to sleep, cheap goods for fear of problems.
Merchants are very enthusiastic, sent a small truck directly to help Zhou Ze to the freezer to the door of the ...... bookstore.
The driver was still a bit stunned after moving the freezer into the bookstore with Zhou Ze.
"Boss, you also need a freezer to open a bookstore here?" The driver asked.
Zhou Ze handed over a cigarette, "Business is not doing well, I plan to sell seafood on the side."
The driver took the cigarette and left, anyway, after the goods were delivered, he didn't have to worry about anything else.
The bookstore has a small second floor, was originally used by Xu Le stacked books, was cleaned up by Zhou Ze will be placed on the top of the freezer, looking at their own "new bed", Zhou Ze heart finally down to earth a lot.
From the second floor down, Zhou Ze found himself in the bookstore appeared a person, not a guest, is his "wife".
Dr. Lin was flipping through a magazine in her hands, seeing Zhou Ze coming down, she said with some confusion, "What are you busy with up there?"
"Organizing goods." Zhou Ze said perfunctorily.
"I'm off duty." Dr. Lin said.
"Hmm." Off duty and not sleeping with me ......
"That girl woke up." Dr. Lin looked at Zhou Ze emphatically, "His father is going to treat our department to dinner, at the Tongcheng Grand Hotel, why don't you come along."
"What am I going to do."
"The girl has been calling out for uncle since she woke up." Dr. Lin asked Zhou Ze with some curiosity, "You and her knew each other before?"
"People have perceptions even when they are in a coma, right?" Zhou Ze continued to babble, "When I saved her, she might actually be able to sense it."
"Go on?" Dr. Lin asked.
"Not going." Zhou Ze shook his head, "I'm not hungry, I don't have any appetite at all."
Dr. Lin nodded and did not continue to force herself, she seemed ready to go, but when she reached the door of the bookstore, she stopped again, "Tonight, are you going home?"
It's back to the old, familiar question.
I go home and you don't sleep with me ......
So, Zhou Ze answered decisively:
"Not going back, I've been a little busy lately."
Well, even though the business in the store has chilled to an iced latte.
Dr. Lin hesitated, didn't force himself, and took out the car keys from his pocket and prepared to leave.
Just then.
"Clunk."
Dr. Lin turned around and saw that her "husband" had collapsed on the bookshelf, and the books on the shelf rolled down all over the place.
"What happened to you?" Dr. Lin immediately walked over to check on Zhou Ze's condition.
Zhou Ze perceived that his eyes were beginning to blur, his vision was difficult to focus, his chest was heaving for a while, while his feet were soft, and he had just completely lost his center of gravity as if he had stepped on cotton:
"Starving ......"
Zhou Ze replied.
Him.
Hadn't eaten for a few days.
