Chapter 4 Bustling City

Chapter 4 Bustling City
Li Jing walked and thought all the way, just ask anyone and he will know the direction to the city center!

Knowing the situation is only the first step. After that, finding a way to survive is an urgent problem. At least eating a full meal is the most important thing.

Go straight along the main road, and it's only 10 o'clock in the morning when you reach the city center, which is less than two hours!

At this time, Shanghai Bund may be the most prosperous place in the country, with men wearing suits and leather shoes, women wearing cheongsams, the streets are full of cars and crowds, and there are many entertainment venues around!

A series of billboards such as Monopoly, Metropolis, Columbia, etc. are colorfully hung on both sides of the street. Casinos, smokehouses, and hotels are all there, and it is a prosperous scene.

Li Jing stood at the intersection in a daze and watched it for more than ten minutes. It wasn't that he hadn't seen a more prosperous one, but that the unique atmosphere of this era rushed over his face, so he had to stay where he was to look up and feel it!

This is a feeling that cannot be described in words, the confusion of time, the essence of history, the yearning of the predecessors, all of these are in front of you, but they seem so far away, like a dream between waving hands It has been wiped out.

"Hey! Boy, are you courting death? Get out!"

Li Jing was awakened by a black car, and Li Jing didn't care about the owner's swear words, so Li Jing stepped aside to get out of this antique car.

The toad-like body of the car, the sound of beeping horns, and the cursing car owner rushed past all the way, but what was left behind was a banknote falling with the wind.

"Ok?"

Li Jing bent down to pick up this note with unknown denomination and purchasing power!

Send the beggar?Well, at least dinner should be settled, Li Jing smiled slightly, and didn't care about the so-called dignity issue at all. The group of people who talk about dignity are just looking for something to do when they are full. Throwing it away again, Li Jing felt that that was the real stupidity.

"10 yuan?"

It’s quite a lot. I remember that when Xingzai was a child, he spent this amount of money on “The Palm of the Tathagata”. It should be no problem to eat a meal. The monthly rent of the charter woman seems to be only 10 yuan. If you save money, you may be able to deal with it for several days. Woolen cloth.

Shaking his head, Li Jing wanted to put the money in it, but found that he didn't even have a pocket, and the underpants were only worn when he was sleeping, and there were no pockets at all!

In reality, it's okay to be miserable in school, and it can be so miserable after timetraveling. What a great responsibility it takes to be so exhausting, hungry, and broken. Give him pants with pockets, Li Jing feels that the hungry people squatting on the street seem to look at him with contempt.

"Damn, I don't believe it yet. False time travel can fall on me. I don't believe that I can't be a human being. Fuck."

After cursing a few words inwardly, Li Jing cheered himself up!

At this time, there are no relatives and no possessions. This is the end of the world. It is better to rely on others than to rely on yourself. The original part-time job is to be self-reliant and not to cheat on the old. Now it is all the way out. They were all blocked, and their net worth was in a mess.

Everything has to start from scratch, nothing to say.

Come on, come on with everything, starving to death is death, and starving to death is also death, but the difference lies in whether you have lived in vain.

With ten yuan in hand, Li Jing walked away from this street corner. There was no way out, so let's rely on ourselves.

Strolling on the street, Li Jing didn't take the money to eat or buy clothes. Instead, he found a store, bought a chess set for two yuan, and exchanged the remaining money for one piece. One piece!

After leaving the store, Li Jing went to the corner of the street he had found when he came.

This is a gathering place for coolies, there are a lot of people, squatting on the ground to smoke, to eat, to work!
Li Jing found a clean place next to him, sat cross-legged on the ground, took out the chess and set it up.

"Play chess, one yuan per game, lose two yuan, hurry up, double the money, no one waits for the outdated"

As soon as he shouted, all the coolies around looked over!

Chess is not a difficult thing to do. If you are not proficient in playing chess, you can always say you can play it. In addition to gambling, coolies who cannot enter the casino do not have much entertainment. After a while, Li Jing was surrounded by crowds, and there could only be one person at a time, and most of them were onlookers to join in the fun.

Li Jing doesn't have many other abilities, he is a little master at playing chess and games, and the people who are playing the game are not very old at this time, after all, there can be no old people doing coolies, that's why Li Jing is optimistic about this place .

Not much effort, the first game is over!
"Hey! You lost, haha, give me the money, give me the money." The coolie boy was so happy that he couldn't find Bei, not because of the two dollars, but because of the fun of gambling.

"Hey, really memorized, I can win obviously, I made a mistake, I made a mistake." Li Jing shook his head slightly with emotion, but he quickly took out two yuan and handed it to the coolie boy.

Li Jing was a little frustrated, "Okay, the bill is over, who will be next?"

"I'll do one more round, one more"

"Come on, let's play in line, one game per person."

"I'm coming, I'm coming"

"Don't grab anyone, I'll come"

The coolie boy still wants to take advantage of the victory to pursue it, but unfortunately the crowd around him doesn't agree. He can play and earn money. How can such a good thing be monopolized by one person!

Everyone rushed to compete for the ranking, Li Jing smiled slightly, it seems that they might be able to find a hotel to stay tonight.

Time passed, the chess game continued, Li Jing lost more than he won, and kept getting in and out of money from a piece of rags he found. He didn't even bother to eat lunch, and played until 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Li Jing was about to close the stall up.

"Tomorrow, I'll come back tomorrow, let's continue playing."

Waved his hand as a farewell, dismissed a few coolies who still wanted to pester, Li Jing took the chess and wallet and started to leave, and it would be dark if he continued to play. Not only was it unsafe, but he also had some things to deal with .

Find a clothing store and spend a few dollars to buy clothes, buy some food, and then find a normal hotel to open a room, Li Jing is ready to go back to the room and eat again!

Sitting cross-legged for a whole day, my legs are already numb and almost unconscious, plus I haven’t eaten all day, it’s getting late, and there’s nothing wrong with meeting a robber again, it’s better to go back to the hotel as soon as possible to rest .

After taking some time to finish dinner, Li Jing counted today's harvest!
Excluding the money for buying clothes and staying in a hotel, I still have 68 yuan left, which means I made almost 80 to [-] yuan this day!

It's a pity that playing chess is good for fun and to pass the time, but it's far from a long-term job!

Because people who lose money will eventually understand and don't want to play anymore!Maybe no one will come to the previous place in a few days, and then I will have to change the place.

They are all poor laborers. It is okay to play once or twice, but after a long time, you can't count on it at all.
