In the afternoon, Chen Nuo skipped class directly.
Chen Nuo was wandering on the road. It was already the season of early spring. Although there was still some distance before the spring flowers bloomed, some girls who loved beauty could not wait to put on their skirts.
So you can see some strange contrasts on the street.
Some middle-aged and elderly people were still wearing thick cotton coats. Some young and unrestrained girls were wearing small skirts and high heels.
Watching those pairs of white calves swaying in the street...
Chen Nuo sighed.
Hey! Young people don’t know how to take care of their bodies. When they grow old in the future...
Mmm...it smells so good!
Chen Nuo simply found an M restaurant and sat down by the window. While sucking on a straw and drinking Coke, he painfully criticized these young girls who didn't know how to take care of their bodies...
After being criticized like this for more than an hour, Chen Nuo remembered that he didn't even have a good lunch.
Hmm, I want to eat fried food.
So, go out and go to Tangzi Street.

Standing at the door of "Da Lei Automobile Dealership", Chen Yanluo's eyes narrowed again.
The rolling shutter door was down and locked, but there was obviously a large dent in it - it looked like it had been smashed.
Chen Nuo thought for a moment, then turned around and entered the community, walking to the yard at the back.
The big iron gate is also locked.
Chen Nuo looked around and saw no one. He stretched out his hand and pressed lightly on the iron lock. He jumped up high and easily jumped over the two-meter-high iron door.
When I was standing in the yard, I saw cars all over the yard swaying here and there. There were also some parts scattered on the ground.
Although the back door was locked, Chen Nuo twisted it hard and the door handle chain was unscrewed by him.
I walked into the house and looked around several rooms in the house.
No one.
Chen Nuo picked up the phone to make a call, but after thinking about it, he put it down.
Turning around, he went out again.
I walked around several second-hand car dealers on Tangzi Street for half an hour. I put on the cute and ordinary smile of a young man on my face, pretending to be buying a car, and chatted with several shop owners along the way.
Half an hour later, Chen Nuo found out a name.
Li Qingshan.

Brother Lei is soaking in the water.
In early spring, the water of the Qinhuai River was still bitingly cold. Brother Lei's hands and feet were tied up, and his clothes were already soaked. He was panting and coughing violently.
This is a tributary of the outer Qinhuai River in the south of the city.
On the shore here, there is a two-story building, an old-fashioned building. It looks dusty. But there is a sunroom on the second floor. The terrace is wide, and there is about seven or eight steps in and out. There is a row of wooden fences.
Along the side facing the river, there is a gap in the middle, and an external staircase is built, which goes all the way from the second floor to the river. A two or three-meter wide platform extends out by the river - just for fishing.
Li Qingshan was sitting on the terrace on the second floor.
There is a Taishi chair, and in front of it is a tea table carved from a tree stump. There is a set of tea sets on it.
Picking up a tea cup, Li Qingshan took a sip of tea, squinting his eyes as if savoring it carefully.
After a while, he said calmly: "Ask him if he understands."
A middle-aged man standing by the fence nodded, turned around and shouted downstairs: "Master Shan asked, do you understand?"
On the fishing platform, two or three young people stood there, holding a rope as thick as an egg in their hands, and Brother Lei was tied to the other end of the rope.
Brother Lei was out of breath, and when he heard the question, he raised his head, with a sad face, and said loudly: "Master Shan, what you are doing is against the rules!"
On the balcony, the middle-aged man listened and turned around and said: "Brother, he said..."
Li Qingshan sneered: "I can hear it."
As he said that, he shook his head: "I haven't figured it out yet, so I'll try again."
The middle-aged man waved his hand towards the people downstairs.
The people below kicked Brother Lei into the river.
The tributary of the Qinhuai River is actually not very deep, and it is the dry season in early spring, so the water depth is probably less than two meters. If an adult fell in, he would be able to struggle up by himself.
But the problem is, Brother Lei's hands and feet were tied up, and when he went straight down, he could see his body twisting and twisting in the water.
Ten seconds later, the middle-aged man waved his hand, and the people on the platform below tightened the rope and pulled Brother Lei up again.
"Ask again, have you figured it out?" Li Qingshan sneered and took another sip of tea.
Putting down the tea cup, he slightly raised his left hand and raised two fingers.
The middle-aged man hurriedly walked over, picked up a pack of Nine-Five Supreme from the table, took out one stick and put it on Li Qingshan, then picked up a match, struck it, and lit it for him.
Li Qingshan took a puff and blew out the smoke with satisfaction.

Li Qingshan, fifty-six years old. A veritable old man.
It has been entrenched in Shuiximen for many years. In the early years, my subordinates opened two bathhouses - whether they are formal or not, I think.
Later, I took a trip to Wanwan and experienced some local entertainment projects. I was inspired. After I came back, I made complete changes to my bathhouse business.
We built a three- or four-story building. There are restaurants on the first floor and private rooms on the second floor. The bathhouse business continues on the third floor, and a chess and card room is also opened inside.
This is a one-stop shop for eating, drinking and having fun.
The business exploded.
His business was called Zhe Feng Hall, so people on the street began to call Li Qingshan "the Hall Master".
After one became popular, he opened a branch a few streets away.
Keep the fire going.
Make money every day.
When he was young, this man was a street vendor and had no education. But after he became a man, he liked to pretend to be old-fashioned. In the past few years, he got tired of wearing suits and leather shoes, but now he likes to wear a Tang suit.
Several sets, made of good quality materials. I was tired of wearing leather shoes, so I deliberately changed them into cloth shoes.
Then the government developed an antique street in this area two years ago, and Li Qingshan also opened a shop to sell some handicrafts.
I don’t know if it’s making money or not, but it’s always on.
This small building is his own nest. He drinks tea here on weekdays - the rows of antique shelves in the room are filled with various antiques.
The old man likes to pretend, so the people below will naturally cater to him.
As for why Brother Lei was chosen.
Quite simple.
Brother Lei, this car dealer, was created when he was in jail and took refuge with a big boss.
Tangzi Street and another piece of land belong to that big boss.
Unfortunately, the big boss went in again a few days ago...
And this time it really collapsed. I heard that he was sentenced to more than ten years and he would not be able to get out in a short time. So his subordinates scattered and his dignity fell.
Li Qingshan's land is just across the road from Tangzi Street, and he has long been jealous of the second-hand black car business.
I didn't take action before because the big boss was here, but now I'm naturally rude.
Tangzi Street is a hub for illegal car trading. Brother Lei’s car dealership has the best location, the largest shop, and the greatest reputation on the entire street.
But Li Qingshan has always looked down upon this Bald Lei - he is too cowardly! In such a prime location, his business is like shit, making a small amount of money just to make a living.
In a word, Li Qingshan wants Brother Lei's shop.
Originally, we could have found another place on Tangzi Street and opened another one. When it got bigger, we would have made it black and white, bright and dark, and slowly squeezed Brother Lei away.
But isn’t that time-consuming?
How can Hall Master Li have that kind of skill?
So, once and for all!
The facade of the car dealership and the house and yard behind it are Brother Lei's own houses with property rights.
So, I brought Brother Lei over and "discussed" letting him sell his shop and house.
The old man is quite evil, he only gives the market price and doesn't take a dime more.
·
Brother Lei was soaked a few more times and became obviously much softer.
Not daring to say harsh words anymore, he was pulled up again, his face turned pale, and his body was trembling in the wind: "Master Li, master! Stop it, stop it! Raise your hand! I don't dare to occupy the shop anymore.
...But you can at least give me two more! My whole family also needs to eat."
The old man above heard Brother Lei's loud words and smiled.
Just about to speak...
There was a crash!
The wooden door on the side was knocked open!
The two men who were originally guarding the door fell in without even holding the door open. They lay on the ground and could not get up.
A man wearing a leather jacket and a helmet strode in!
There were three or four young people in the room. Seeing this scene, they were stunned for a moment, then immediately surrounded them while yelling and cursing.
The few young people holding ropes on the stage downstairs were also busy running up the steps.
Poor brother Lei couldn't stand firm on the stage, and a young man holding the rope let go.
"Eh! Eh! Eh!??"
Plop! Brother Lei fell into the river again.
·
"Wait a minute." The men surrounded the helmeted man who broke in.
Li Qingshan suddenly waved his hand.
A grin appeared on his face: "What's the origin? No one has played with me in such a hard way for several years."
He leaned forward in an imposing manner: "My friend, do you have anything to tell me first?"
Chen Nuo pondered for a moment and glanced around the room...
Damn, I didn’t see a safe.
So he shook his head: "Let's talk about it after the fight is over."
Li Qingshan's heart sank, and a stern look appeared on his face: "Get him!"
A few seconds later.
Bang!
A figure flew directly from the fence on the second floor in an arc, and then fell into the water!
Then, another one...
Another one!
One after another, figures flew down from the platform on the second floor and fell into the river.
Li Qingshan was stupid!
There were seven or eight people in the room, all of whom could be beaten.
When the middle-aged man who was the most capable of fighting came up, he was grabbed by the neck and slapped on the ground, and then kicked out, breaking the wooden fence with his body, and fell directly into the river.
…
The cigarette butts in Li Qingshan's hand fell out!
Seeing that everyone around him was gone, Li Qingshan took a deep breath and forced a smile on his face: "My friend, there is no need to fight and kill." After a pause, he said: "I think we can talk..."
"No, you don't want to." Chen Nuo went up and picked up Li Qingshan, then threw him out of the fence.
Poof, the hall master fell headlong into the river.
Lie down on the fence and look down.
Chen Nuo shouted: "Brother Lei! Hold on, I'm coming to get you."
