Because the export commodities fair was to be held, the street lights were renovated and worked overtime to give off a bright and dazzling light.
Like little suns set on jade belts, they illuminate the street like daylight.
And behind the shiny tall buildings, there must be dark and dirty corners.
Luo Xuan turned into the branch road behind the tall building.
It was fine at first,
These small streets connected to the bustling main streets are still lined with shops, and there are many people of all kinds coming and going.
It’s just that
What makes people feel a little strange is that the people walking on these remote streets are mainly young and strong men.
Secondly, most of them are old men in their 60s.
It is rare to see women, especially young girls, wandering on this street.
Luo Xuan was in front, followed by the two sisters Li Li and Li Na.
On the crowded street, two pretty sisters walked in.
It's like a stone thrown into a pile of flies.
Suddenly I felt like my nest was exploding.
The two sisters Li Li and Li Na are both very beautiful, and Chunlan Qiuju each has her own specialty.
Li Na is like a flower that is about to bloom. Her tenderness reveals a freshness and a hint of fiery youthful vitality.
When old men see her, they will feel like they are 10 years younger.
Like a pink rose that is about to bloom, people can't help but want to pick it, but they feel a little bit burdened that they can't bear to do it.
As for the final result,
I'm afraid it depends on whether reason defeats animal nature, or whether primitive impulse drives away morality.
It’s just that men, most of the time, are animals that think with their lower body.
Meeting a girl like Li Na.
In a prosperous place, everyone can still look like one person.
If they were in a secret room, it would be hard to say what the men's final choice would be.
Li Na is like bamboo shoots in the mountains.
Everyone knows that the inside is tender and tender, but the outside is covered in burrs, which makes it a bit difficult to choose.
But Li Li is different.
This is a lotus seed that has cracked its mouth.
The white and tender meat has a solid shell on the outside.
One can imagine her delicious taste, smell her charming half-cooked breath, and hear the beautiful sound when her shell breaks.
Li Li relied on her own strength, with her pretty face, a pair of slender and beautiful long legs, and a slender waist that seemed to be swaying in the spring breeze.
In an instant, he caught the eyes of countless men.
At this time, many old and young men were looking at the two sisters directly or furtively.
There was a shout from the crowd on the street, "What are you doing?! Don't you want to kill me?"
There seem to be a lot of patrol officers in casual clothes on this street.
They saw men walking on the street with greedy eyes looking directly at the two sisters Li Li and Li Na.
The patrol officers who were responsible for maintaining order outside the trade fair immediately issued a warning: "We are all here! Those who are tired are all the merchants who are participating in the trade fair, and I can't help but stand in the way!"
The Huadu Joint Defense Team's reputation is not in vain.
These are the painful realizations summed up by many people through their bloody experiences.
Maybe it's to take into account the impact.
The patrol officers scolded them not loudly.
But this scolding fell into the hearts of these old bachelors and young men who came out to work hard, and it was like thunder rolling from the sky!
I saw waves of panic in the small streets.
Many people who did not dare to look at Li Li and Li Na were sent to Shaoguan and Zhang Mutou to do voluntary labor for fear of suffering disaster.
So those who wanted to go shopping didn’t dare to go shopping, and those who wanted to come out to eat snails and eat fried noodles quickly left.
Pedestrians on the street began to panic.
They began to leave one after another.
The crowd began to evacuate into the alleys, and those who set up night market stalls on the street were frightened and inexplicably panicked.
At this time, these vendors only regret that their necks are too short and cannot see distant movements like giraffes.
While the vendors were confused and asking each other about the situation.
Suddenly a cry came from the crowd: Flash, the city is coming!
The shadow of one barking dog, the sound of hundreds of barking dogs.
Whenever someone yells like this, someone will naturally follow up and shout: Run, so and so is coming!
Run, otherwise it will be miserable
Now!
That lively scene
It's simply beyond words.
Some people didn't care to clean up the stall carefully, and threw the socks and slippers on the floor into the cardboard boxes.
Then put it on the back rack of your bicycle and run away!
Only plastic paper floating in the wind and a few pairs of socks that had been stepped on were left behind.
There are also tricycles selling fried noodles, rumbling around.
Two customers with plates were following behind them. As they chased, they shouted: "Old man, I want to be a little jealous!"
"Don't run away! Let me take two more bites first."
Li Li and Li Na were stunned when they saw this: What's wrong?
You were fine just now, why did you run away in a panic all of a sudden?
Is this an air defense drill or an emergency evacuation drill?
But I didn't hear the siren either.
After a tiring day today, Luo Xuan wanted to find a place early to have a good sleep so that he could cope with the hard work tomorrow.
So Luo Xuan buried his head in front and walked in a hurry.
Li Na hurriedly hurried slowly, trying to catch up with Luo Xuan.
But Li Li grabbed Li Na's hand and said, "You don't have to be so close to him. Let's chase him from a distance to see where Brother Luo Xuan is going."
Li Na still wanted to follow closely.
Li Li added: "Don't worry, Brother Luo Xuan won't leave us alone."
Away from the busy little streets.
Luo Xuan turned into the small alley next to him, and the light inside suddenly became much dimmer.
Walk further in for another 10 meters.
The roads in the alleys became more and more winding and narrow.
This is an urban village.
Places like this used to be populated by poorer local residents.
However, with the development of the economy, these local residents have gradually moved out and moved into spacious and bright buildings that are particularly convenient for bathing and toileting.
The remaining crooked and dilapidated old houses were rented to foreigners who flocked to Yangcheng from all directions to make money.
Luo Xuan walked not far inside, when several forks appeared in the alley.
At these crossroads, which can only accommodate one person, young girls wearing heavy makeup stand in twos and threes.
She is worthy of being a girl who has seen the world in a big city. All of them are enthusiastic and generous, and they are completely without the shyness in the mountains.
As soon as they saw Luo Xuan came over.
Many girls were generous and greeted Luo Xuan enthusiastically: "Pretty boy, come to my place for a cup of Kung Fu tea?"
"Hello, handsome!"
"This way, pretty boy, come this way"
But when these girls saw clearly that there were two beauties following Luo Xuan.
Their attitude changed.
"Push to the street!"
"Hey, since he has a lot of dry food on his own, Zhong Xing went out to find some wild food."
"It turns out that he is not our type after throwing his old cat into such a deadbeat."
"What a handsome brother. It's a pity that he can't eat it even if he sees it."
"Yes, there are handsome guys everywhere, but there are so few handsome guys like this."
Li Na, who was about 10 meters behind Luo Xuan, was confused when she saw this, "Sister, do they know Brother Luo Xuan?"
Li Li shook her head: "How can we know each other? Brother Luo Xuan has always been in Saibei, and this time we came here with Brother Luo Xuan.
Except for going to the bathroom, we basically never separated from him. How could Brother Luo Xuan sneak out and meet these people?"
"Then they are still so enthusiastic?"
Li Na pouted: "It seems like we have known each other for a long time. Why is that?"
Men like this dislike coming to a place, and Li Li is even more confused about what's going on: "I don't know. Ask less, look more, and follow along."
This is a big city, a big place, not comparable to the small places we stayed in before.
There will definitely be a lot of things that none of us can understand or understand."
Li Li pulled Li Na and left: "Anyway, I just know that I just follow Brother Luo Xuan."
Luo Xuan led the two sisters Li Li and Li Na through the streets and alleys, and walked a long way in a winding way.
Not long after.
The alley ahead has finally become a little wider.
Walk a little further.
Finally, we got out of these alleys and entered a road that was relatively wide and prosperous, somewhere between an alley and a small street.
It turns out that this is a staff residential area, all 5 or 6 stories high, with brick-concrete structures.
These were built as early tube towers.
At this time, it was obviously old and dilapidated. The street lights between the buildings were extremely dim, and the light was not much different from that in the alley.
But fortunately, these old-fashioned buildings have inherited the simple and rough style of the north, pursuing neatness and uniformity.
Therefore, although the building is dilapidated, the path is straight and straight, and it is not difficult to walk.
Luo Xuan walked along the badly worn concrete walkway shaded by sycamore trees.
It wasn't until he reached the middle of the buildings that he stopped and looked up at each building one by one.
This area seems to be an area for the families of employees of a certain factory. It seems that everyone's living standards are not high and they are all very strapped for money.
So much so that they have no nightlife.
I couldn't bear to light a lamp, and most of the surrounding areas were dark and silent.
Come to think of it,
The workers and their families in these buildings have all gone to bed.
It's not too late at this point.
There were only a dozen or so dim lights shining sparsely on the windows of the entire family area.
It can be seen that the people who live here have developed a good living habit of turning off the lights.
And they are also very environmentally conscious, and the incandescent bulbs they use are all 25w or even 15w.
The light emitted by this incandescent lamp is extremely dim, and is actually not much better than a kerosene lamp.
Luo Xuan stood there and observed.
The two sisters Li Li and Li Na, who had already followed, had to stand 2 or 3 meters behind Luo Xuan and wait.
Seeing that Luo Xuan was motionless, the two beauties couldn't help but look at each other, their eyes full of doubts:
What is Brother Luo Xuan doing?
What are you doing standing here?
There are no relatives, no friends, not even an acquaintance here.
It is estimated that it is already around 11:00 pm.
Luo Xuan didn't rush to find a place to stay, but instead he went to this quiet, even a bit eerie family area, and why was he just standing there?
Li Na was impatient and was about to ask.
But I heard Luo Xuan start shouting in a moderate voice, "Collect newspapers, books, and cardboard boxes! Newspapers and magazines are 1 cent per pound, and cardboard boxes and cardboard are 7 cents per pound."
Luo Xuan's voice echoed between the buildings.
The sparrows perched on the sycamore tree were so startled that they started chirping.
"Collecting newspapers, books and periodicals, and cardboard boxes. Newspapers are 1 cent, 2 cents, and cardboard boxes are 7 cents. I'm passing by tonight and picking them up. I won't come over tomorrow."
Listen to Luo Xuan shout like this.
Li Li's almond-shaped eyes were wide open!
Li Na even covered her mouth, showing an expression of incredible shock.
What is this?!!
Not to mention, he shouted out as Luo Xuan made two sounds of collecting scraps.
"Click——"
Behind him on the second floor, someone turned on the light in his house.
Then a young daughter-in-law, wearing only a men's vest, poked her head out of her kitchen window: "Hey, comrade who collects scraps, is the price you said true?"
In this period,
Most of the people wandering the streets and alleys of Yangcheng collecting scraps are from Anhui and Huizhou provinces.
So the little daughter-in-law, she answered Luo Xuan in Cantonese Mandarin.
I heard my little daughter-in-law ask this.
Luo Xuan turned around slightly, but did not answer her question directly.
Instead, he asked the other person: "Comrade, is your family large?"
The little daughter-in-law was startled: Just collect a cardboard box, newspaper, periodicals and books, and just keep them!
Why do you ask these questions?
Fortunately, the young wife could see clearly at this time. The young man standing under the light in the passage vaguely looked like Zhou Zheng.
In addition, behind this man, there were two girls who looked very beautiful and well-dressed.
After analyzing these things together, my wife felt that the young man downstairs did not look like a bad person.
Especially the clothes on this man, he looked like he was no ordinary worker, at least he looked like a cadre.
He is handsome, young, and a cadre, and behind him are two beautiful girls in professional suits?
This put the little daughter-in-law at ease: "There are 6 people in my family. Tell me, do you accept cardboard newspapers anymore?"
"Sorry, you continue to sleep, disturbing your rest."
Luo Xuan raised his head and said in a medium-pitched voice that could only be heard from the second floor of the nearest building: "Let's go in two days. I'll make another trip in two days."
"It's okay! Stupid"
With a bang, the little wife closed the kitchen window angrily, then turned off the light in the ramen kitchen and went back to her room to sleep.
It is estimated that before the young daughter-in-law goes to bed, she will inevitably have to greet Luo Xuan's relatives and friends.
See the situation in front of you.
The two sisters Li Li and Li Na, who were standing 2 meters behind Luo Xuan, were even more confused:
What is this for?
In rural areas, some educated youths who come to jump in the queue are very energetic in the middle of the night and cannot sleep.
Sometimes they would wander the streets in groups late at night.
From time to time he would yell: "Wang Bing! Li Qiang! Zhao Wei!"
There are a lot of people with this name.
Often when these educated youths make random noises, the houses on both sides of the street will light up their lights one after another.
Then someone will ask in the room: "Which one? What's the matter with calling me?"
Whenever this time comes,
Those educated youths who have a bad taste will laugh and reply: "It's okay, it means that your sleeping posture is wrong, let's remind you.
You’re welcome to get up and urinate, change your position and continue sleeping, we are all good people, please call us uncle.”
Pranks like this happen from time to time in many small towns.
But how could Luo Xuan come here out of nowhere to do such a thing?
Li Na glanced at her sister Li Li.
Li Li stared at Luo Xuan's back and couldn't help but think: Could it be that Brother Luo Xuan was too tired at the exhibition today?
So much so that his mind started to become confused?
You come here in the middle of the night to collect scraps?
Obviously at the exhibition today, the prices were in the thousands or tens of thousands every minute.
How could you value a transaction worth just a few cents?
It’s over!
Li Li lamented in her heart: Brother Luo Xuan, maybe he is under too much pressure, and now he has begun to freak out.
How about taking Brother Luo Xuan back to the alley just now and letting him defeat the fire?
