Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 1224 Comrade, you are here to ask for a debt

Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly got out of the car and explained: "Comrades, we are guests from other places. We took this car from the airport, but the driver deliberately took a detour to kill customers. My companion couldn't help but criticize him. He refused to let go, and said that we would never end with us, originally we didn't want to cause trouble, but the comrade driver did too much, and my companion was so angry that he fought with him."

Niu Xiaoqiang pointed to the steel pipe that fell on the ground: "Did you see that steel pipe? The driver took it out of the car. He obviously wanted to bully us two foreigners. Let's talk about it. People with low moral character, can we condone and give in?"

In this era, the vast majority of ordinary people in the country are still very reasonable.When everyone heard that there was such a thing, they all accused the driver of going too far, which completely embarrassed the people of Hui'an.

In front of so many people, Xie Jun didn't want to go too far. He slapped the face more than 20 times and then stopped, expressing his gratitude to everyone for their support.

The driver covered his face and yelled, "Don't even think about leaving! I'm going to call someone right away!"

When the onlookers heard this, they all blamed the driver. Some enthusiastic people couldn't see it, and shouted: "If you dare to retaliate, I will go to the police comrades to come and judge. I will personally treat these two comrades. witness!"

The driver did take a detour, and if the police track it down, they will definitely find out who the main problem is.

Seeing that he was outraged by the public, he could only snort twice resentfully, covered his swollen cheeks and said, "Anyway, you have already taken the bus, pay the fare quickly!"

Niu Xiaoqiang clasped his fists at the crowd and asked with a smile, "Do you know how much it costs to get here from the airport by car?"

Immediately someone replied: "I know, it's exactly 35 yuan to get here by car from the airport."

Niu Xiaoqiang thanked him, counted 35 yuan and threw it to the driver: "This is the reward you deserve, hurry up and leave with the money."

The driver snorted, picked up the money, and drove off in a hurry.

Niu Xiaoqiang thanked everyone again, and then walked forward with Xie Jun carrying gifts.

The road ahead is not easy to walk, there are potholes everywhere, Xie Jun smiled as he walked: "Boss, I was really relieved just now, let me say that we should not spoil that guy from the beginning, otherwise we will only fuel his arrogance."

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled noncommittally, and kept looking around.

This place is already far away from the urban area. As far as the eye can see, there are some two-story private houses. Judging from the scale, this place should be a small county town.

After walking through a long section of potholes, the cement road turned into a gravel road.Xie Jun saw Niu Xiaoqiang looking at the surrounding environment solemnly, and couldn't help asking: "Boss, you should be looking for a woman, right?"

This is the first time that Xie Jun asked Niu Xiaoqiang on his own initiative. In the past, he would only do things seriously and never speak too much.

Niu Xiaoqiang knew that he wanted to liven up the atmosphere, so he couldn't help but smiled and replied: "Well, what I'm looking for this time is my former homeroom teacher."

Xie Jun snorted and looked at the ladies' clothes in the bag: "This teacher must be very young, otherwise why would you give her such fashionable clothes?"

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded: "She is only two years older than me."

Xie Jun glanced at Niu Xiaoqiang, and took the initiative to change the subject.He already saw that Niu Xiaoqiang treated this female teacher a little special, and asking too many questions was against the rules.

The two continued to walk along the stone road while chatting. After walking for about half an hour, they came to the outskirts of the county.The place is getting more and more desolate, and the roads are full of weeds.

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at the street signs on the side of the road, and said to Xie Jun: "We have arrived, you can find someone to find out where No. 33 Xujiazhai is."

Xie Jun agreed, and walked towards a family with his things.

After not much effort, he came back and reported: "Boss, No. 33 Xujiazhai lives in Xitou, we can find it by walking to the right."

Niu Xiaoqiang felt a little uneasy, nodded slightly and followed Xie Jun without saying a word.

Xie Jun deliberately pretended not to see it, and when he saw the number 33 plastered on the wall of the house, he said, "Boss, this is the place, or you can go in by yourself, and I'll wait for you outside."

After Xie Jun finished speaking, he handed the gift in his hand to Niu Xiaoqiang. Niu Xiaoqiang took it silently, then took a deep breath, strode to the door of the room, and shouted to the room in a slightly trembling tone: "Excuse me, Li Is Teacher Lu at home? I'm her student and I came here to visit her."

There was no response in the room, Niu Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment, and then repeated what he had just said, but the room was still silent.

Xie Jun was squatting on the opposite side of the road smoking a cigarette, and yelled, "Boss, why don't you try louder?"

Niu Xiaoqiang yelled, and shouted a third time with louder volume.This time, there was still no response from the house, but it disturbed the neighbors.

The wooden door of the No. 32 house next door opened with a creak, and a gray-haired head poked out from the crack of the door.

Niu Xiaoqiang turned his head and found that the other party was an old man.

The old man was looking at Niu Xiaoqiang with vigilant eyes. Just as Niu Xiaoqiang was about to apologize, the old man spoke first: "Little comrade, are you here to ask for a debt?"

Niu Xiaoqiang was stunned for a moment before shaking his head: "Master, I'm not here to ask for debts, but to visit my former teacher. Her surname is Li and her name is Li Lu. You should know her, right?"

The old man's expression softened slightly, he sighed slightly, shook his head and said, "You are late, Xiao Li's family moved out two months ago."

Niu Xiaoqiang hesitated: "Have you moved away? Since she moved, why didn't she tell her sister?"

The old man's ears are not very good, and he couldn't hear what Niu Xiaoqiang said, so he started nagging to himself: "Xiao Li is a pretty good girl, but it's a pity that there are too many debtors, and I have to come here every day For several times, her grandparents were in poor health and often fell ill, and her mother could not go out to work, so she could only take care of the elderly at home. If it wasn't for Xiao Li's little money from setting up a stall, their family would not be able to survive. ah."

Niu Xiaoqiang approached him and asked softly, "Master, do you know where Mr. Li and his family moved?"

The old man shook his head: "They moved out in the middle of the night, probably to avoid debts. Although I heard the news of their moving, I am too embarrassed to come out to check, lest people say I am nosy."

Hearing these words, Niu Xiaoqiang showed deep regret, feeling at a loss.
