"I was thinking that you'd still be living in that courtyard eventually, so it's better to avoid trouble."
Uncle Zhang looked at Wang Dabao with satisfaction and continued, "Besides, this happened quite a few years ago. If you hadn't asked, I almost wouldn't have remembered it."
Wang Dabao nodded and said nothing more.
Yi Zhonghai was very fast, and returned in just over twenty minutes. He wiped the sweat from his brow and went to Liu Haizhong and the others.
A moment later, he came over with a wad of cash, coldly handing it to Wang Dabao, "Exactly eighty yuan, count it."
Wang Dabao, of course, wouldn't stand on ceremony with him and took the money, starting to count it.
Yi Zhonghai was caught in a dilemma, unsure whether to stay or leave.
"It's 1.7 yuan short."
Wang Dabao, holding a large pile of small bills in his hand, spoke to Yi Zhonghai with a faint smile on his face.
“It’s impossible for us to be short of money.” Yi Zhonghai frowned deeply, then added, “It’s only 1.7 yuan short of 80 yuan, that’s not a big deal. Let’s leave it at that.”
After saying that, Yi Zhonghai turned to leave.
"Smack."
Wang Dabao casually threw a handful of money at Yi Zhonghai's back, saying, "Not a penny less. I don't want the money. You can wait to go to the detention center. You'll have brought this on yourselves if you lose your jobs."
I'm going to lose my job again.
Yi Zhonghai was furious about this, his face so dark it looked like it was about to drip water.
Liu Haizhong also ran over, and after asking some questions, he and Yi Zhonghai squatted down on the ground to pick up the money.
"Young man, I still don't know your name." Liu Haizhong sorted out the money and handed it to Wang Dabao again. "You're short one yuan and seventy cents, right? I'll make up the difference."
As he spoke, Liu Haizhong counted out one dollar and seventy cents from his pocket and added it to the money.
"Wang Dabao".
Wang Dabao took the money and started counting it again.
Seeing Wang Dabao counting money again, Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong's eyelids twitched. They had just picked up the money right under this kid's nose, how could he still be counting it?
"We're still short five cents," Wang Dabao said again.
Liu Haizhong and Yi Zhonghai were taken aback, and said at the same time, "Impossible."
Wang Dabao chuckled and handed a stack of money to the two of them, saying, "Don't be afraid to disagree; you can count it too."
Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong looked at each other, neither daring to accept the money.
“Fine, I’ll pay the fifty cents.” Yi Zhonghai gritted his teeth and pulled out fifty cents from his pocket.
The two snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"well!"
Wang Dabao reminded him, "Don't forget to kowtow to my uncle, or I won't accept the money."
Upon hearing this, Yi Zhonghai staggered and almost fell. What a damn bad luck! He had to kowtow even after paying the money, but for the sake of his job, he had no choice but to kowtow. He just had to persuade the old lady to stop.
The four of them chirped crickets nearby for a while, then came over together to kowtow to Wang Zhen.
It was clear that the group hated Wang Dabao intensely, but they had no choice but to swallow their anger for the sake of their work.
The deaf old lady was the last one, supported by Yi Zhonghai and Sha Zhu.
After kowtowing, the deaf old woman glared fiercely at Wang Dabao, gritting her teeth and cursing, "You little beast, you'll die a horrible death!"
Wang Dabao sighed. Here we go again.
I could tolerate calling him a "little rascal" before, but now he's called me a "little beast." He's really spoiled.
Wang Dabao carefully put the money away and walked step by step toward the deaf old woman.
Sha Zhu immediately stepped forward, "What, you want to mess with the ancestor?!"
"Smack!"
Before Sha Zhu could react, he was slapped across the face by Wang Dabao.
"Holy shit...!"
"Smack!"
Before Sha Zhu could even utter a curse, he received another slap.
"Clap clap clap!"
Five big slaps sent Sha Zhu sprawling to the ground.
Sha Zhu fell to the ground, covering his face with his hands, shouting, "Damn it, don't hit me, don't hit me..."
The people standing by were all dumbfounded. Things happened so fast that they didn't even have time to stop it. In the end, it ended with Wang Dabao kicking Sha Zhu in the stomach.
Wang Dabao smiled and looked at the deaf old woman.
"Old man, this time I'll let your stupid grandson take the beating for you. If you dare to curse me again, you'll be the one getting beaten. I'm telling you, no one can stop me."
The deaf old woman was terrified; she was trembling all over, and her mouth opened and closed but she couldn't utter a single word.
