Um?
Qin Huairu instantly became alert upon hearing this. She stared intently at the man and woman in front of her and asked, "Who are you?"
"Go away, I don't want to do business with you."
Knowing that a bowl of instant noodles cost one cent, Qin Huairu thought that these two people were most likely employees of the steel rolling mill, or their family members, otherwise they would not have known the price of instant noodles.
And this kind of person is unlikely to spend two cents on instant noodles.
"Walk?"
The man snorted coldly, took out a red object from his pocket and put it on his arm.
What's the meaning?
Qin Huairu was a little confused by this scene.
At this moment, the vendor next door let out a sharp cry.
"Run, the red armbands are coming!"
"What? Red armbands! Holy crap! Run, run!"
For a moment, the black market was like a frying pan with cold water added, boiling instantly.
Whether they were setting up stalls or buying things, they all covered their faces and ran away, fearing that they would be caught by the red armbands if they ran too slowly.
Qin Huairu, who reacted immediately, was furious.
She didn't expect to meet the red armband today, and the red armband happened to set its sights on her stall.
Taking advantage of the chaos around her, Qin Huairu hurriedly stuffed instant noodles into her bag, but the more panicked she was, the more mistakes she made, and she dropped the instant noodles on the ground several times.
The man at the stall watched Qin Huairu pack up, and when she finished, he said slowly, "Okay, come with us."
"No, I won't go. My son is waiting for me to come home!"
Seeing that most of the people around her had run away, Qin Huairu grabbed her bag and left, not even bothering to take her kettle and lunch box.
But the woman with the red armband pulled her right back.
"Help, help, fake red armbands are stealing things!!"
Qin Huairu struggled desperately, trying to break free from the woman's restraints.
But after struggling for a few times, she suddenly stopped because she saw the man take out a shiny silver bracelet from behind his waist.
“Crack!”
The silver bracelet was put on Qin Huairu's wrist.
"Comrade, please be flexible. I have no other choice but to come here to sell things. This is my first time here, and I didn't make a penny."
"Please give me a chance, I promise I will never come here again."
"My husband is disabled and my son is still young. My family relies on me as a woman to earn money to support the family. If I... wuwuwu~~"
As she spoke, Qin Huairu began to feel pain and looked extremely pitiful.
"Behave yourself!"
The woman with the red armband scolded.
First time here?
Are you kidding me?
If she hadn't just heard that he had bought it before, she would have believed it.
The red armbands have always turned a blind eye to the activities of the black market because most of them are ordinary people who come to barter and they don’t care much when they stroll around the black market.
But Qin Huairu's nature is different. She doesn't barter, she takes advantage of loopholes to make money.
Selling instant noodles at double the price of one cent a serving is a huge profit!
The only ones who are more serious than her are those who come to sell stolen goods.
"This is my first time here. If you don't believe me, check your pockets. There's not a dime in there."
"Comrade, please have mercy on me. If I were taken away by you, my family would starve to death."
But no matter how Qin Huairu begged for mercy or pretended to be pitiful, the two men with red armbands acted as if they didn't hear anything and took her away.
......
It was a little after two in the morning.
Chen Jun, who was sleeping soundly, was suddenly awakened by a burst of monkey calls.
"What's going on? A monkey has entered the yard?"
Listening to the noisy sounds in the yard, Chen Jun rubbed his eyes, put on his clothes and got out of bed.
When I opened the door, I found that it was Xu Damao who was yelling in the yard, saying that something big had happened in the yard and someone was caught for speculation.
Speculation?
Chen Jun subconsciously thought of Qin Huairu.
This woman has been snatching instant noodles from the cafeteria for several days in a row, and she sells all the stolen instant noodles on the black market. If there is anyone in the hospital who is engaged in speculation, it is most likely her.
"Xu Damao, stop yelling!"
Liu Haizhong walked out of the house with a coat draped over him and yelled in displeasure.
Is it a glorious thing to be caught for speculation and profiteering?
If he continued to shout, the two neighboring courtyards would know about it, and then he, the one in charge, would be embarrassed.
"Hey, I'm calling for someone to try those speculators!"
Xu Damao obviously knew who was arrested, so he shouted a few times at the top of his voice before he was willing to shut up.
"Okay, let's go to the front yard and watch the fun."
Xu Damao waved at Chen Jun, then lowered his voice and said, "The one who was arrested was Qin Huairu. It is said that she made a lot of money in the black market."
"That's what I was saying. Why didn't Qin Huairu act pitiful in the yard when she was transferred to sweep the floor? It seems she has other tricks up her sleeve."
Chen Jun didn't say much after hearing this, and followed Liu Haizhong and Xu Damao to the front yard.
When they arrived, there were already quite a few people in the front yard, and the third uncle even turned on the light bulb in front of the door, which was rare.
"Qin Huairu, how can you blame me for this? I brought it to you because you said Banggeng liked instant noodles. I have nothing to do with your speculation."
Ouch?
Chen Jun looked closely and found that it was Yan Jiecheng who was anxiously explaining to the two men with red armbands.
"Comrade, I have confessed everything. Can you please forgive me this time?" Qin Huairu wore a silver bracelet, had messy hair, and tears in her eyes.
At first glance, I thought he was being wronged.
But unfortunately, the red armband ignored Qin Huairu and instead said to Yan Jiecheng seriously, "Qin Huairu accused you of buying ten instant noodles for him from the cafeteria every day and charging him 20 cents as a reward each time. Yan Jiecheng, do you have anything to explain?"
Hearing this, the onlookers present all looked towards Yan Jiecheng.
Good job!
Yan Jiecheng, who seems to be an honest man, has actually learned to make money secretly.
If you earn two cents at a time, you can earn six dollars a month.
He is worthy of being the third uncle’s son!
Third uncle Yan Bugui and Yu Li also looked at Yan Jiecheng in surprise. They didn't know that Yan Jiecheng was secretly making money.
Yan Jie Chengdu was almost crying with anxiety.
How could he know that Qin Huairu bought instant noodles for speculation? Now, he didn't make much money and got himself into trouble.
If he can't explain clearly, he will also be investigated.
"Comrade, I admit everything you said. I did bring instant noodles for Qin Huairu, but she told me that Banggeng loves instant noodles and has to eat them three times a day."
"I did this out of pity for the child. It has nothing to do with speculation."
After saying that, Yan Jiecheng hurriedly looked at Qin Huairu, hoping that she would explain things clearly.
But Qin Huairu was begging the red armband to spare her and didn't pay any attention to Yan Jiecheng at all.
"Qin Huairu, please say something!"
