next day

Yang Meifeng and Liu Qin each handed 500 yuan to Lin Jianshe. When they parted ways, Liu Qin reminded them to be careful not to lose the money.

Lin Jianshe had one thousand yuan in his pocket, but he did not go to the hotel to find Hao Jiannan immediately. Instead, he went to find the classmate who was interested in buying a job yesterday.

The family discussed it all night and finally decided to buy the job.

Lin Jianshe wants to receive the cash today. The other party requires him to go through the transfer work immediately. If it is done today, the money will be paid today.

Lin Jianshe immediately took them to the garment factory to make arrangements.

The personnel department specialist repeatedly asked Lin Jianshe if he really wanted to sell his job. After getting a positive answer, he helped them with the job transfer.

As soon as the money arrived, Lin Jianshe took the bus to the hotel.

But when he arrived, Hao Jiannan was not there. The front desk said that he had gone out and would not be back until around six o'clock. Lin Jianshe was waiting for him in the hotel.

I was hungry, so I went to the state-owned restaurant across the street to eat a bowl of noodles.

It was not until seven o'clock in the evening that Hao Jiannan came back.

Seeing Lin Jianshe waiting impatiently, Hao Jiannan quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Jianshe, I kept you waiting for so long. It's all my uncle, the section chief, who knew I was back and insisted on inviting me to his house for dinner. He didn't let me come back until now."

"You have an uncle who is a section chief? Why haven't I heard you mention this before?" Lin Jianshe was surprised.

Hao Jiannan nodded and said, "Hey, my family was poor before, and my nephew looked down on us and didn't allow me, his nephew, to mention it to others. Whenever I went to his house for dinner during the New Year or other holidays, he would look down on me."

"Now that I'm making money, this guy has become kinder and more enthusiastic. He didn't want to have a meal, so he insisted on having dinner with me before leaving. Otherwise, if I said I had something to do in the evening, they would let me stay at home for a night."

Lin Jianshe said, "This person is very snobbish. He despises the poor and loves the rich. He probably doesn't make as much as you do in a month as he does in a year. Seeing that you have become so rich, he wants to curry favor with you."

"Let's stop talking and go upstairs." Hao Jiannan put his arm around Lin Jianshe's shoulders and went upstairs.

"Have you collected all the money?" Hao Jiannan asked as he entered the house.

"It's all ready." Lin Jianshe patted his belly.

Only then did Hao Jiannan realize that his stomach was bulging.

Lin Jianshe lifted up his clothes and revealed a bulging waist bag tied to his belt. When he zipped it up, he saw money all inside, in rolls. Most of them were Great Unity banknotes, and there were also a few yuan in loose change.

A smile flashed in Hao Jiannan's eyes, and Lin Jianshe took out the money from his waist bag one roll at a time.

One roll costs one hundred yuan, and there are fifteen rolls in total.

"Jiannan, here is 1,500 yuan, please count it."

Hao Jiannan patted Wang Wang's shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, you and I still trust you."

As he spoke, Hao Jiannan took out the green bag from under the bed.

The zipper was opened, revealing an electric meter wrapped in pieces of newspaper. Hao Jiannan removed a piece and handed it to Lin Jianshe. The electric meter showed the time, but the time was wrong, so the buyer had to adjust it himself.

Lin Jianshe turned it over and took a look. It was indeed the same as the electricity meters sold in the Friendship Store.

"Here are a hundred electricity meters. Do you want to take them apart one by one to check if there are any problems, and count them to see if the number is correct?"

Lin Jianshe glanced at the electric meter in his bag, shook his head and said, "No, I don't trust you or you."

Jiannan trusted me so much that he didn't even suspect that the money I gave him might be too little or fake, and he didn't even count it. He even checked it one by one and counted it again. Doesn't this mean that I don't trust Jiannan?

Moreover, Jiannan had them disassembled and checked one by one, and there was definitely nothing wrong with these meters.

"No, I trust you too." Lin Jianshe threw the electric meter into his bag and zipped it up.

Just then, the light on the roof flickered, and then it went dark.

Lin Jianshe: “The power is out?”

Hao Jiannan glanced out the window and said, "The street light at the end of the street is still on. I guess there's a short circuit in the hotel's wires. I don't know when it will be repaired. Let me take you downstairs first."

"Okay." Lin Jianshe packed the bag.

The bag is heavy, and inside it are the electric meters that can make you rich.

After leaving the hotel, Lin Jianshe looked around and saw no one around, so he said to Hao Jiannan, "Jiannan, next time you come back with a radio, please leave some for me."

Hao Jiannan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said okay.

"You should go home quickly. You are carrying such valuable things. It's not safe to go home too late."

Lin Jianshe nodded and hugged the bag in his arms tighter.

As soon as Lin Jianshe left, Hao Jiannan turned around and went upstairs, took a briefcase, and went downstairs to check out.

"You checked out at this time, so today's room fee will not be refunded to you. Only the deposit will be refunded." The receptionist frowned.

Hao Jiannan said impatiently: "How can we live here if there is no electricity? I won't refund the room fee today. Please give me the deposit quickly and I will move to another hotel."

The front desk said: "I don't know who cut the wires in our hotel, but the electrician will come to fix it tomorrow."

Hao Jiannan: "I don't care about that, just give it back to me."

When Liu Qin got home from get off work, she didn't see Lin Jianshe. She was very nervous, worried that something might have happened to her with so much money on her.

I was in no mood to cook, so I just ate some cookies in the evening.

At eight o'clock in the evening, when it was completely dark, Liu Qin walked out of the yard and paced back and forth anxiously at the gate.

"Liu Qin, what are you doing here?" Zhang Jiao came out to use the restroom and saw Liu Qin in the alley, so she asked.

Liu Qin was very annoyed and glanced at her without paying any attention to her.

"Are you waiting for Lao Er? Where has Lao Er been? Why hasn't he come back so late?" Zhang Jiao asked.

Liu Qin said unhappily: "It's none of your business."

"Hey, I'm asking you something kindly, and you say it's none of my business?" You really have no manners at all.

"Where Lin Jianshe went is none of my business. When are you going to pay me back? That's my business, right?" Zhang Jiao asked.

"Tell me, you two owe us 400 yuan, when will you pay it back?"

Liu Qin: “…”

"Don't worry, sister-in-law. I will pay you and Lin Guodong off within this week." Lin Jianshe came back.

Zhang Jiao looked in the direction where the voice came from, and saw Lin Jianshe carrying a large army green bag.

What treasure is in this bag? Not only do you carry it with you, but you also hold it in your arms.

Moreover, he was so arrogant, saying that he would pay off the money he owed them this week. Where did he get so much money?

"Why did you come back just now?" Liu Qin asked with a frown, her eyes falling on the big bag that 놛 was holding.

Lin Jianshe walked over to Liu Qin and lowered his voice and said, "Jiannan was delayed by something, so it's a little late, but we got the goods."

놛 patted the bag in his arms.

Liu Qin was relieved after hearing what he said. "I thought something had happened. I was so worried."

Lin Jianshe smiled and said, "What happened? Don't worry about me taking care of things."

"Second brother, what's in your bag? It's such a big bag." Zhang Jiao asked curiously.

Lin Jianshe: "What does it have to do with you?"

After saying that, he pulled Liu Qin into the yard.

Zhang Jiao: Hey.

Forget about her business. If anything happens to you two in the future, don't even think about asking her and Guodong for help.

Even if Guodong wanted to help, she would stop him.

Zhang Jiao went to the public restroom and just as she came back and walked to the door of her house, she heard a scream from Liu Qin.

"ah!"

The screams pierced through the long darkness and reached the ears of everyone in Yard 23.
