The years when I was an old man

"What does the elephant arcade have to do with you?"

Su Mei suppressed her emotions as much as possible, looked at me and asked.

"My place!"

"impossible!"

"Why is it impossible?"

I asked a question, and Su Mei was silent again.

And I wasn't in a hurry, so I lit a cigarette and took a long drag slowly.

I used to trust Su Mei.

But ever since I found out that she can know a thousand skills, this trust has been greatly reduced.

And now, the gambling boat is about to start.

Zou Tiansheng stared at him like a tiger, and people from all walks of life in Fengtian were eager to try.

Therefore, I cannot allow any flaws in me.

Otherwise, the person buried in the river must be me.

After being silent for a long time, Su Mei spoke slowly:

"The sixth day, do you believe me?"

I smoked silently and didn't answer.

My silence obviously made Su Mei somewhat disappointed.

Glancing at me, she continued:

"Okay, whether you believe me or not, I want to tell you. No matter who sent you this place, you can't accept it..."

What Su Mei said made my heart move again.

She already knew that this place was given to me by someone else.

Could it be that Su Mei already knew that the Elephant Riding Tower belonged to Mr. Zou?

But I'm still silent because I know.

Even if I ask, Su Mei will never answer me.

"On the sixth day of the lunar new year, I know that you have a thousand skills, that you are thoughtful, and that you are as stable as a mountain. But after all, you have only been in this river and lake for less than a year, and you still don't know how sinister and dirty this river and lake is. ..."

After speaking, Su Mei sighed and continued:

"The world is bustling with profits coming and going. How many people in this world have blood on their hands and bones on their feet because of the word 'profit'. They regard these mortal beings as ants who carry money. In the short term, they may get wealth . But what about the long run? What is their final outcome?"

"Don't talk about others, just talk about Mr. Zou. He has accumulated a lot of wealth through his life. But what happened later? He wanted to go ashore for nothing, but the result was that everyone betrayed his relatives and died with hatred..."

Su Mei has said similar things to me before.

Every time, what she said was sincere, but this time I was a little surprised.

Because I feel that Su Mei seems to know more than I imagined.

After calming down, Su Mei said again:

"On the sixth day of the lunar new year, trust me once. You can make money, and you can play games. But you must not take over the field. You must remember that in this arena, you must find a way to protect yourself..."

I was still smoking a cigarette indifferently, and didn't answer Su Mei's words.

It never occurred to me to take over the Elephant Riding House.

Because Liu Ye once said similar things to me back then.

You can find a financial backer, you can set up a game, but you must never take over the place.

Although I don't know why Liu Ye said that. 7K 妏敩

But I firmly believe that Liu Ye must have his reasons.

And the reason why I told Su Mei about this today.

In fact, it is a temptation.

What I am particularly afraid of now is that Su Mei is a chess piece buried in advance by my opponent.

My indifference made Su Mei feel a little lost.

She got up, put on her coat, took her handbag, and was about to leave.

She raised her hand slightly as she passed by me.

Lightly white fingers resting on my shoulders.

Her voice carried a hint of resentment.

"On the sixth day of the lunar new year, I don't know if you still remember. I told you once. I will never harm you. This sentence is still valid now. Also, don't let Xiaoxian know about our conversation today... "

After finishing speaking, Su Mei turned and left.

Looking at Su Mei's lonely back, all kinds of past emerged before my eyes.

Should I trust her or not?

For a while, I was a little dazed.

…………

Master Hong's side progressed very smoothly.

He pretended to be Zhao Xiaoxiao's college classmate and got in touch with Zhao Xiaoxiao's boyfriend Gao Zhiquan.

Most importantly, the two played well.

After playing mahjong a few times, Master Hong not only lost [-] to [-] yuan.

Moreover, he also borrowed [-] usury from Gao Zhiquan.

Of course, all of this was done on purpose.

If you win our money, you will have to double it back.

At noon that day, Lord Hong crawled out of the bed.

So I stretched, yawned and held my mobile phone, came to the living room to find me and said:

"Little Sixth Master, the grandson surnamed Gao called me again, saying that there is still a game in the afternoon. Ask me if I will go..."

"Go, it's almost enough to raise. Try to close the net today!"

"Got it!"

Master Hong and I discussed the network collection plan again, and decided to go to the bureau on time.

On the way there, Lord Hong answered a call, and it was Zhao Xiaoxiao.

Lord Hong pressed the speakerphone on purpose, and then heard Zhao Xiaoxiao's worried voice from the opposite side:

"Yonghong, how can I listen to him. You went to play cards with him, lost a lot of money, and owed him 5 yuan?"

I listened from the sidelines, and I secretly admired it even more.

This has just met Master Hong for a few days, and he speaks in a tone of worrying about Master Hong.

Lord Hong said nonchalantly:

"Don't worry, it's okay. But you haven't said, what is he threatening you with?"

Zhao Xiaoxiao was silent for a moment before saying:

"Yonghong, don't blame me. I really can't say it now. I'm afraid that if I say it, I will lose my job..."

I didn't go to college though.

But I know how difficult it is to study medicine.

Zhao Xiaoxiao is just an ordinary person, this job is too important to her.

But what she said made Master Hong and I couldn't help but look at each other.

We both felt that there was a good chance this had something to do with the death certificate.

While speaking, Gao Zhiquan had arrived at the agreed place.

This is an ordinary two-story shop facing the street.

On the door of the store, there are five golden characters "Zhenyuan Pawn Shop".

Although I have seen some pawn shops before.

But what I don't know is that this is actually the first batch of loan companies in Harbin.

And as time goes by, pawnshops slowly disappear.

Gradually evolved into various financial companies.

But what they actually do are all kinds of lending businesses.

Until the rapid development of the Internet, these companies began to move online.

The procedure is simpler, but the routine is deeper, and it has become a nightmare for batches of people.

Master Hong was by my side and whispered:

"This pawn shop is run by Gao Zhiquan. It is said to be a pawn shop, but it is actually a business of lending money. I heard from Zhao Xiaoxiao that part of his money is given to some gambling games in casinos. There is also some money, which is given to ordinary people. Common people. It is said that the interest rate is very high. He has made a lot of money in the past few years..."

Although Master Hong had already told me something before.

But in my heart, I was still a little shocked.

A bank employee actually started this kind of business.
