Chapter 67: Blocked Again



Then we entered the textile factory's family compound and looked at the small space inside. In the houses of 70 or 80 square meters, it seemed that there might be nearly a dozen people crammed into them. Many of them separated the living room by a curtain and lived there.

The long corridor was lined with coal stoves and piles of coal briquettes, and families were already cooking something in pots. It was likely that the entire floor could see what the family was eating as they passed by, so there was no secrecy at all.

Fortunately, the backpack Chu Xi was carrying was empty, with just a piece of cloth covering it, waiting to be used when needed and then put in from the space. It would be the same, but no one could touch the backpack.

Section Chief Wang enthusiastically invited Chu Xi into the house, then he took care of his wife and children before going out to call for help. This was a good thing that benefited both himself and others.

Soon several old ladies and aunties came over, as if they were afraid that they would not be able to grab anything.

"Old Wang is really a real guy. He always thinks of me when he has something good to offer. My two-month-old baby has been extremely thin for a long time and has never been able to get enough nutrition..."

"Yes, if Section Chief Wang had called me a little later, I might have already wandered around the dark alley. The old man has been lying in bed for a week, feeling weak and unable to buy anything good. The little food we have at home is almost gone."

Invisibly, Section Chief Wang also acted as a good person and earned a lot of favors.

So, Chu Xi paid out the goods every time he sold them, actually from the space, so basically everything was available. If there was nothing, it would be difficult to pack it on the spot. Fortunately, everyone knew that there were many people but few goods, so everyone didn't buy much. They just hoped that they could be called again when they came next time.

Every time Chu Xi completed a transaction, he would take the goods that the other person needed according to their requirements. In the end, he sold so much that it took two backpacks to carry it. He didn't dare to take any more for fear of being exposed.

This is just a good start, and we will be able to cooperate better next time.

Chu Xi, who was frightened by everyone's enthusiasm to keep him, was stopped before he even reached the gate of the textile factory. The visitor pointed to the corner cautiously and asked him to go over.

Chu Xi was skilled in martial arts and courageous, so he went straight over. After all, it was impossible for him to be a robber in this compound, nor was it possible for him to be caught for "speculation and profiteering".

He looked like he was dressed simply but neatly, without any patches, and he was not from the countryside.

A scammer? I've heard of this kind of people. They lure people to their homes under the pretext of a deal, trap them, and then extort money from them under the pretext of the deal. What black-hearted people!

It’s probably not because I’m pretty that they want to traffic women in. Oh, this damn charm!

Chu Xi was just thinking about this heartlessly when someone over there started shouting again, and it sounded mysterious.

"Big sister, I know you are going to sell things. We are in the same line of work..." As he said this, he made a gesture of carrying a basket.

Chu Xi didn't say anything, and the old lady continued,

"I know your price is a bit low. Who wouldn't want to get a higher price for such a precious thing? I'm familiar with this courtyard. If you take the opportunity to charge a higher price for exquisite things like yours, those people will have to pay more. Your price is a bit of a waste of money. Besides, we are both willing to fight and suffer."

"Or, give me your things and I will help you sell them. I will definitely give you a good price!" Those shrewd little eyes and calculating look made me feel uncomfortable no matter how I looked at them. He also had a black heart.

"Sister, I'm just here to visit a relative, you've got it wrong!" Then she turned around and was about to leave. This kind of person is not easy to approach. She might sell you out for money one day, so stay away from her.

"Hey, let's talk it over. Don't leave so quickly. I can raise the price a bit..." As he said that, he grabbed Chu Xi's arm.

Raising the purchase price and then selling it at an even higher price to cheat people, or taking advantage of the situation to rob them, is accumulating good karma for me.

Chu Xi ignored her, broke free with great effort, and walked out quickly.

"You're such a jerk! You don't even want to make money! You're blind! If you keep doing this, you'll offend people sooner or later. They won't even sell their products to you. You have no conscience!"

The mean old lady started to curse, but fortunately Chu Xi had already walked away. She naturally didn't want to cooperate with such a person.

Fortunately, Chu Xi did not deliberately open her mental power, otherwise, after hearing her swearing, Chu Xi would have to go back and slap her a few times and "thank" her when she had time.

But the old lady's words also woke her up a little. She was a little too proud. Even an ordinary old lady could see what she was doing. If a professional came, wouldn't he be able to catch her every time? Although she was not afraid, she couldn't play tricks on her. Wouldn't that start haunting her?

As I was thinking, my left hand was suddenly grabbed by someone.

"If you don't want to be caught, follow me!" A low and pleasant voice came over.

I was really getting carried away. Just as I was thinking about it, I was slapped in the face again. Only when my body was touched did I realize that I had no vigilance at all. I deserved a slap in the face. If someone had come to rob me for money, rape me, or kill me, I would have ended up like this.

When he released his mental power, he saw two men in uniform with ferocious eyes about to turn out of the alley at the intersection in front of him, holding sticks in their hands. It seemed that they had seen him. He had been betrayed!

So he stopped struggling and ran along the path of the man.

Seriously, aren't we here to help those in need, to give umbrellas in the rain? We're here to rescue children and the elderly in need. What have I done to provoke anyone? Last time I was blocked, and this time it's even more direct, I'm going to be arrested...

Forget it, I won’t fight these guys head-on. They will probably be unemployed soon anyway, and we are promoting business. Why are we still arresting them? What a joke!

But as she was running, the man was puzzled. How could this little girl run so fast while carrying a backpack? It was really strange.
