Chapter 23: Got the TV!
Sunday is the only day off for senior year students.
At the gate of Changjing Road Police Station, two people were squatting opposite the busy street.
Zhai Da: "Wu Yue, how have I treated you?"
"Not so good, right?" Wu Yue's pants were a little tight, and he couldn't squat down. "I felt like you were a little disgusted with me after you fainted."
"...It's not important. I have something for you to do now."
“No.”
Zhai Da took out a large bucket of iced black tea from his pocket and gave it to Wu Yue as a bribe.
Wu Yue: "Come on, brother, what's the matter?"
Zhai Da pointed to the police station across the street and said, "It's simple. Go in later and help me get some things."
Wu Yue unscrewed the bottle of iced black tea and put it back on.
As a student, how can you not be afraid of the police?...That's not true.
In short, in Wu Yue's eyes, the police station is a mysterious, dangerous place that serious people would never go to.
If someone was reported to the police station by the school, it was basically equivalent to being thrown into prison, even if they just went to borrow a toilet to have sex.
He has never been in there since he was a child.
"No, what if someone sees us?"
Zhai Da was prepared and took out a baseball cap from his backpack: "Put it on and pull it down low. Remember, it's best if even the police can't see what you look like."
Wu Yue's brain, which had been idle for years, started working again. "No... What exactly should I do? What should I help you get?"
Zhai Da: "Money."
Wu Yue was silent for a while, then held Zhai Da's hand.
He looked at Zhai Da with burning eyes. Zhai Da had never seen such a serious expression on his face.
"Zhai Da, you can't do this. It's better to rob a bank than a police station. There's not much money in the police station. So, we should take a long-term view. This baseball cap can't cover it up. At least a mask is needed."
Zhai Da was silent for a long time:
"Hurry up and tell me, you watched too many American blockbusters last night and are just memorizing your lines. Come on! There's still time!"
Wu Yue's expression became clear and stupid again: "...Yes, I am."
Zhai Da took back the iced tea and said, "You talk too much. I don't think you are suitable for this job."
Wu Yue snatched the iced tea back with a sly smile: "You're the boss, tell me what to do!"
You know what, it’s really rare to see such a big bucket of iced tea.
Top quality!
Worried that Wu Yue might have problems understanding, Zhai Da explained it in great detail.
Including the general rules for reporting gambling and getting bonuses.
Wu Yue's eyes lit up when he heard this: "There's such a way to make money?!"
He felt his mind was opened up.
Zhai Da nodded and said: "For the whole society, of course this kind of clue is not
It was easy to find, it was purely a coincidence, and there was a certain risk involved.”
Wu Yue's voice rose two octaves: "When it comes to making money, there's no such thing as risk-free. The greater the risk, the easier it is to make money!"
If gambling is allowed, then the rest...
But he knew that there was a street behind his house with many small houses that glowed red every night!
"Your thinking is dangerous..."
Ten minutes later, Wu Yue walked into the police station wearing a baseball cap, carrying an empty schoolbag and holding iced tea.
As for how much money he could get, Zhai Da had no idea. He could only hope that the place wasn't too shabby, or else he wouldn't be able to get even 70,000 yuan if all the money was taken down.
Zhai Da was waiting in the small supermarket opposite. Half an hour passed and the other party didn't come out. He gradually became anxious.
What's going on with Wu Yue? How could something so simple, even a human and a machine could do, go wrong?
Finally, just when he was about to hold back and go in, Wu Yue finally came out.
Wu Yue seemed confused for a while before he said, "I got the money. An old policeman inside said a lot of nonsense."
"Please relay it."
"I've forgotten."
Zhai Da: ...
Wu Yue handed a manila envelope to Zhai Da:
"Basically, I submitted a verification code and briefly described what I was reporting. The police officer said the case wasn't closed yet."
"Then what?"
"I said my boss said that the money must be received today."
Zhai Da wiped his face fiercely...
It's not easy for you to come out alive...
"He said that the cash bets on the scene that night had already reached over 110,000. Rewards at this level can be claimed in advance by filing a report, but the amount cannot exceed 5,000. Otherwise, the process will be different."
Zhai Da nodded. One hundred and ten thousand yuan was a lot of gambling money. There were only about ten real gamblers in the gambling den. On average, each person took ten thousand yuan with him. This was far beyond the level of a small gambling den in Dongyang County.
Fat sheep are not available every day.
I guess those three Japanese contributed a lot.
When the envelope was opened, there was 5,000 yuan inside. If the amount exceeded 100,000 yuan, the rate would be 5%, but this time only 5,000 yuan was given.
I have a TV.
"Basically, he said there was non-cash gambling funds behind the case, but they were slow to arrive and might not be claimed. He told me to come back later and ask about it... Oh, and he said there was a new verification code for next time, but I didn't open it to check."
There was also a note in the envelope with a new string of numbers written on it. Zhai Da nodded, things were going more smoothly than he had expected.
He is not greedy, so he still has a lot left after buying the TV.
Zhai Da took out a card and handed it to Wu Yue.
There is still a fee for running errands.
"Wu Yue, how do you think I treat you?"
Wu Yue looked at the hundred-yuan bill towards the sun and smiled sweetly: "You're so good to me!"
"I have one more thing I need you to do."
———
Deep inside the Hongqi Shopping Mall, in a row of shops where no one would go, a seemingly unintelligent young man on a tricycle shouted, "Home appliances going to the countryside, trade in old for new... Old TVs for new ones, 29-inch color TVs~"
The voice was so loud that several people who were taking a nap were woken up.
When passing by "Cangzhenxuan", the tricycle seemed to be broken down, and the TV on it was facing the door of the store.
Even in 2008, a 29-inch TV was not considered a large TV, but the packaging box was brand new and still looked very marketable.
The young man squatted at the door and tried to fix the tricycle for a long time but failed. Instead, his hands were covered with black oil. He simply didn't leave. He held a big bottle of iced black tea and sat on the tricycle and continued to shout.
The boss inside was being attacked face to face, and the noise was so annoying that I couldn't even concentrate on watching my favorite "MVP Lover".
He came out waving a fan, cursing, "What are you shouting about? Get out of here!"
Wu Yue asked, "Sir, would you like to trade in the old TV for a new one?"
The old man glanced at the big box. It didn't look like a branded product. It was probably a domestically produced, unknown brand of TV.
"Go away, don't bother me here."
Wu Yue scratched his head: "I do want to leave, but I'm stuck. If I can't fix it, I'll have to wait for my friends."
The old man can fix it himself, but why?
"Don't disturb me while I'm watching TV."
"Would you like to try trading in your old TV for a new one? This big TV is only 300."
The old man, who had already turned back, turned back again and asked in shock, "How much?"
"300."
“How can it be so cheap?”
Wu Yue recalled Zhai Da's explanation and said word by word:
"A factory in the south closed down, and the person in charge ran off with his sister-in-law! Our boss went there and brought back a lot of TVs, but he couldn't sell them and ended up with nothing. He was originally selling them for 2,000, but he couldn't wait any longer, so he decided to sell them to get the money back and start selling phones instead."
"But everything is good. If you don't believe me, I can install it for you and try it out."
The old man looked at the big box and felt a little moved...
A 300 yuan TV, as long as the screen is bright, there is nothing wrong with it, not to mention it is 29 inches...
The old man hesitated and said, "Open it and let me see."
“It’s very troublesome to open it and put it back together…”
"I'll fix your tricycle chain."
Wu Yue sighed and said reluctantly, "Okay."
