Chapter 67: Money! It’s all money!
After get off work, Huang Ling went to the warehouse to stock the goods.
The reason for choosing this time is because there are fewer people during dinner time.
She arrived half an hour earlier than the agreed time and was pedaling the tricycle vigorously when the system suddenly sounded:
[Ding~! Hello host, the "Air System" upgrade is complete.]
[I have a fart. Let it go. I’m tired.]
[There is no reward for arguing with Tongzi. ]
【......】
[To deal with excess bills and the situation where bills are no longer needed in the time and space in which you are now, you can now exchange bills for money or objects at a certain ratio for the host. Objects are limited to physical objects that exist in the time and space in which you are now.]
Oh my god! Perfect!
【Please pay attention to the proportions. 】
[I know, it's low! It's okay! I'll just keep arguing with you! It's all about money!]
[OK host, you can check the redemption requirements at any time. ]
Huang Ling was so happy that she exerted more strength on her feet and pedaled the tricycle so hard that it flew up to the destination.
This time I went to the other end and parked the car next to the back door. I planned to open the back door later so that I could move things directly to this side which was closer.
She parked the car and walked around to the front door. Unexpectedly, the door was full of coal slag.
Huang Ling hurried to check the situation, thinking that it would be bad if the old lady stepped on it and slipped.
"Pan..."
Before he could shout out, he saw a skinny middle-aged woman walking out of the next room.
One hand on the waist and the other wielding the tongs.
"There's only so much space! I'll let you take it all!"
As she spoke, she picked up a piece of honeycomb coal with the tongs and threw it into the yard, and the coal shattered all over the ground.
So that's how the scraps came about.
Looking again, it seemed that the old lady had bought honeycomb coal, but the delivery person was lazy and just unloaded it at the door.
Originally, the house had a corridor more than one meter wide, but everyone decided to add brick walls and a roof to the corridor to make it a kitchen. So now there is no corridor and the coal has to be piled in the corner of the house.
It seems that the old lady didn't have time to move, and the neighbors started to make trouble. In fact, it didn't take up much space, at most the width of two coal cakes, and it didn't affect their going out at all.
This is obviously looking for trouble.
"Afen, stop it! Don't throw it! Zhiqiang will be here soon and he will help me move it. What if you break it? This, this, this..."
The old lady stepped forward to explain and tried to snatch the tongs from the other person's hand.
Although the other party was thin, he was young at least, and she definitely couldn't win against him.
"You pushed me! Everyone's watching! You pushed my aunt down. Don't even think about getting away with it unless you pay her a hundred or eighty! A fall for an elderly person is no small matter. If she's unable to move, I'll have no choice but to leave her at your house. You'll have to take care of her for me!"
Huang Ling walked forward and looked at Afen with her arms folded.
"Who are you? You're meddling in my affairs!"
"Hey, I'm going to take care of it today!"
"Xiao Huang, please don't argue with her, please..." Old Mrs. Pan hurried over to pull Huang Ling.
Huang Ling patted her hands and said softly, "Auntie, go back to the room. It's okay. I'll take care of it."
Money! Money just came to my doorstep!
Huang Ling felt excited.
"She's my aunt! Do you think I can control her? If not, there's still the government! What? The government can't control you. Are you some flying monkey, Bi Ma Wen?"
"The government has to be reasonable too! You're occupying my space and you think you're right!"
"That's fine! First, you can settle the money for smashing the coal cakes in my house, and then you can go to the government to ask them to deal with the issue of me occupying the land!" Huang Ling sneered.
I've never lost an argument, okay?
"I'll count the loss of my occupying your space, and I'll count the loss of my coal cakes."
Ah Fen was speechless, wondering how she could have such a sharp-tongued relative!
"It's my bad luck! Humph!" She turned around and prepared to go back to the house.
"Hey, wait!" Huang Ling called her.
“What are you doing!”
"Such a big thing has happened, you want to just walk away? That's not possible!" Huang Ling stepped forward.
She wanted to pin this man to death in one go, otherwise the old lady would be bullied when everyone was away.
"I see you've been bullying my aunt for a while now!"
"If you say there is one, then there is one!"
"Oh, you don't need to go through several times. This time you will go to jail!"
"A few coal cakes, and jail!" Ah Fen laughed, chuckling at the neighbors who were watching the fun. "Look at her, is she mentally unstable?"
"I don't know if you moved in recently, but the neighbors who have lived here for some time should all know." Huang Ling's righteous face made Afen a little timid.
"W-what?"
"You are not bullying an ordinary old lady, you are bullying the widow of a martyr, the mother of a hero! You are not looking for trouble, you are looking for death!" Huang Ling said heavily.
“…”
"I believe that when it comes to major issues, the neighbors will definitely tell the truth, right?" Huang Ling raised her head and looked at the neighbors behind Afen.
The neighbors looked at each other in confusion.
"I...I didn't...bully her..."
"Wow, everything is smashed, are you going to say that you and my aunt are a loving family?"
"I'll pay, okay?"
"Of course I have to compensate you. Give it to me immediately." Huang Ling looked at the empty space and then at Afen.
Afen immediately rushed into the house, took a shovel and scooped four pieces of coal, brought them out, and piled them back in their original place.
Huang Ling said earnestly:
"Comrade, let's just forget about this one time, but if it happens again, it would be a violation of the law knowingly! Think about it, if this gets reported, your son's high school and college entrance exams, as well as his job placement, will be affected. I'm doing this for your own good!"
Afen bit her lip, not daring to say another word, and turned around to go into the house.
"Hey, wait!"
"what else......"
"Sweep the yard, or if someone in this alley falls, it'll be your fault! I'm doing this for your own good! And these coal slag can be burned, so don't waste them, you know? Wasting is shameful!"
Afen obediently took the broom and dustpan from the house and came out to sweep the coal slag.
When she turned around, Huang Ling saw Ma Zhiqiang standing under the tree, staring at her stupidly while she was cursing.
"Comrade Ma." Huang Ling called him and he came back to his senses.
Ma Zhiqiang went into the house with her.
"Comrade Huang, you're amazing! I really don't have any way to deal with this lesbian. She was a little better when we were here, but as soon as we left, she started looking for trouble! Auntie didn't say anything, and even if she did, we...we couldn't win against her!"
"It's okay. Tell me next time and I'll help you deal with her." Huang Ling smiled.
This is really not a big deal. People in this era are relatively easy to scare. She can strangle anyone, no matter how powerful they are.
The two men first helped Old Lady Pan move the coal to a corner of the kitchen, then opened the back door, moved the goods in, and placed them on the wooden bed.
It is not time to make summer clothes in large quantities yet, so there is not much cloth. There is enough for the bed, and then I put some mothballs on it and cover it with a dyed cloth.
After everything was arranged, Mrs. Pan invited the two of them to dinner.
Huang Ling wanted to decline, but the old lady refused to agree and insisted that she eat. She had no choice but to stay and eat, thinking that next time she came, she would take some meat and rice from the space for the old lady.
She must not be willing to buy meat to eat by herself.
