Suisui at Seventy - Chapter 119
As Li Chunjiao said, Zhao Jiabao was about to rush to the **** shop when he left the school gate. After all…time is not waiting, he will spend 10,000 yuan the day after tomorrow.
However, as soon as he stepped out of the school gate, he was stopped by two men in police uniforms.
The two police officers came up and pointed out his name and said that there were some things to ask him.
One of the young policemen asked, “Zhang Qian, Wu Gouzi, Li Shitou… do you know these people?”
Zhao Jiabao was a little guilty: “No, I don’t know… Comrade Public Security, who is this?”
The young policeman: “Then there was a knife wounding case in an alley outside the school last week. Do you know this?”
Zhao Jiabao gradually calmed down: “I have heard of it, but I don’t know it, and it’s none of my business. Why do I care about this?”
Before the young policeman could question again, Zhao Jiabao said impatiently: “Comrade Public Security, I am a good citizen, so I should justify arresting people for questioning! Did I do anything? Is it me who hurt people with the knife?”
The young public security officer frowned and said solemnly: “Student Zhao Jiabao, this is just a routine questioning related to the investigation, please cooperate.”
“I cooperate! But this matter has nothing to do with me. Why do you hold me and ask!” Zhao Jiabao said shamelessly, “I still have an emergency! The police can’t delay people’s time, right!”
The young policeman seemed to want to say something. The old policeman on the side held his shoulders and said: “It’s okay, classmate Zhao Jiabao, I just happened to meet you, so ask, if you are in a hurry, go ahead.”
Zhao Jiabao snorted softly and left on the spot.
The young policeman looked at him from behind, with a puzzled expression: “Students of Capital University, is this virtue?”
The old police patted him on the shoulder: “Some people are not serious students. Let’s go, let’s ask the student Wei Zhenhua first.”
The young policeman: “The five people who have a hard-headed mouth are not willing to say anything. This Zhao Jiabao also looks like a stubborn face. I hope that classmate Wei Zhenhua can provide some useful information…”

In the gap where Zhao Jiabao was stopped by the police comrades, Jiang Suisui hurriedly ran to the boys’ dormitory and called out Song Weizheng.
“I heard from my roommate that Zhao Jiabao seems to be going to a **** shop to **** watches for money.” Jiang Suisui said anxiously, “You said, do we want to…”
There was an unfinished meaning in the words, and she also made a grabbing action.
Song Weizheng thought for a while, shook his head and said, “No, 10,000 yuan is not so easy to collect. A watch is not a lot of money.”
Jiang Suisui: “But the Zhao family is rich. He should have more than one watch.”
Song Weizheng pondered for a moment, and said, “Then I will go over and take a look.”
“I will go too!” Jiang Suisui immediately raised his hand.
Song Weizheng: “No lunch break anymore? Worked in the cafeteria for a noon, are you tired?”
Jiang Suisui shook his head: “It’s okay to take a short nap at noon. Let’s go and solve Zhao Jiabao’s problem first. We finally exchanged his 10,000 yuan, but he can’t easily turn over.”
It turned out that Song Weizheng arranged for the mysterious man who ran into Zhao Jiabao yesterday and exchanged Mingbi for his money.
He borrowed one of Uncle Zheng’s men to help him inquire about the news and unwittingly change the situation.
Uncle Zheng moved from a small town to Beijing, and the people he brought were all mixed. This subordinate was a small gangster who used to be a thief, but after following Uncle Zheng, he was considered good.
This time it came in handy again.
At noon that day, Song Weizheng rode a bicycle and drove Jiang Suisui towards the pawnshop outside the school.
On the way, Jiang Suisui asked curiously: “What are you going to do with that 10,000 yuan?”
Song Weizheng: “Wait for a while, and then secretly put it back for him. In short, let him suffer a bit first.”
“Yeah!” Jiang Suisui nodded fiercely, “just let him bite the dogs with those little gangsters, and lose both!”

Pawn shop.
Not long after Zhao Jiabao entered, an unbelievable exclamation suddenly broke out: “You are robbing!!!”
The counter staff at the pawnshop is an elderly man. Even when Zhao Jiabao yelled, his expressionless voice said calmly: “Pawnshop is a business of yours, and it is not the same thing as robbery. If you don’t know the price, Satisfied, we don’t force you to be the one.
Zhao Jiabao said anxiously: “You can see clearly, this is a Rolex watch! I have nowhere to buy it! This is a gold watch. I bought it for one or two thousand! How could it be worth only four hundred and five?!”
The old man raised his eyelids and glanced at him, then he held up his watch and weighed him: “I have estimated four hundred and five for you because it is relatively rare. The dial is scratched, and the strap is not well maintained. , If it weren’t for Rolex, forty-five would be worthless.”
After speaking, he put down the watch and pushed it back, quite a bit of gratitude.
Zhao Jiabao saw that he was unmoved and could only furious incompetently.
But what he wanted was him. He was in urgent need of money. If he couldn’t make up 10,000 yuan the day after tomorrow, he might have encountered what he would encounter.
Zhao Jiabao thought for a while, gritted his teeth and said, “Okay, four hundred and five is four hundred and five. It’s just a watch, I don’t lack this!”
The old man was expressionless at his rhetoric, and he collected his watch plainly, ready to bill for money.
“Wait, I still have something to be for!” Zhao Jiabao said suddenly, “Look at this, how much is it worth?”
He took out a jade pendant tied with a red string from his pocket. The jade pendant was engraved with delicate orchid patterns, which appeared more gentle and gentle under the light of the pawnshop.
The old man’s unwavering expression suddenly stopped the moment he saw Yu Pei, his face was still expressionless, but he looked at Yu Pei without blinking, his eyes gleaming as if he had seen some treasure.
He carefully held up the jade pendant, took a closer look with a magnifying glass, and couldn’t help but sigh: “Good jade! The whole body is moist, delicate and tough, and the color is soft and pure. This is the best Hetian jade! The best! The wonderful thing is that the carved flowers on this are exquisitely exquisite, and they are by no means ordinary craftsmanship!”
The old man put down the magnifying glass and said regretfully: “Such a good jade pendant, are you sure you want to be it?”
Zhao Jiabao said impatiently: “If you say it is right, then it is right! You give me a price first, it sounds so nice just now, this jade should be worth a lot of money, right?”
The old man guessed: “You can be two thousand.”
“Two thousand?!” Zhao Jiabao said disappointedly, “This is too little! You just blew it for a long time, just give it this? Don’t you pit me! I’ll find another home to see!”
The old man put down his jade pendant and said: “You go to another pawnshop, I dare say, the price may not be higher than mine. Your jade is indeed a good jade, but according to the price of the jade itself, it is only worth more than a thousand. I am Looking at the carvings on this jade, it is vivid and exquisite, and quite valuable for collection, so I mentioned two thousand. If no one appreciates it, you might not get so much of this jade.”
Zhao Jiabao wanted to pick up the jade pendant and leave, but he hesitated after listening to the old man’s words.
If it is really like what he said, the price offered by other families may be lower, then is it a waste of time to toss around yourself?
And what he lacks first is money, and the second thing he lacks is time.
Zhao Jiabao grabbed his hair irritably, and finally gritted his teeth and said: “Okay, two thousand is two thousand, Yupei and watch together! Can you give me more, two thousand and five!”
The old man didn’t give up his score: “The valuation I gave you is already the highest. No matter how much you charge it at a loss, it’s better not to charge it.”
If I saw an old man who was so uncomfortable before, Zhao Jiabao’s hot temper might have been cursed a long time ago, but now he asks others, he has to bear with him: “Okay, then you can give me money now. I want it now. Get the money!”
The old man moved when he heard the sound, and neatly put the jade pendant and the watch into the counter, and while preparing to issue the ticket, he said: “Our tickets have a time limit. The shortest is six days and the longest is half a year. The longer the term, the more interest. If it expires, You didn’t come to redeem it before, and the pawnshop disposes of these things. You see, how long do you want?”
Zhao Jiabao thought for a while, and said, “Forget the watch, I’m not going to ask for it, any time limit. This jade pendant… has a deadline of six days! No, wait! Ten or ten days!”
The old man raised his eyes and glanced at him: “Are you sure you can redeem it in ten days? If you haven’t redeemed it after ten days have expired, the jade pendant may not belong to you.”
After hearing this, Zhao Jiabao smiled disdainfully: “It’s not that I look down on others, this jade is two thousand yuan, except me, most people can’t afford it. It still has to wait for me to redeem it! Come on, don’t write for ten days. It’s just six days! I don’t want to give you interest in vain places like you.”
The old man smiled invisibly and did not speak, but instead opened the ticket neatly and paid him the money.
“Walk slowly, don’t give it away.”
Zhao Jiabao took the money and finally felt more at ease. He walked away leisurely with his hands in his pockets.
The old man shook his head, put away the jade pendant and his watch, and sighed: “I don’t know how high it is. I can redeem it after being a thing. There are very few for so many years. It’s a pity that this jade pendant didn’t follow the owner.”
Just as he turned around to put things in the storage room at the back, there was a sudden noise from the door.
The old man paused, and turned around to see that it was a pair of young men and women. The old man sighed in his heart, looking at the spirit and upright look, but he wanted to live by himself.
The young men and women were Song Weizheng and Jiang Suisui who arrived behind Zhao Jiabao.
It is a pity that they came a step late. When they caught up, Zhao Jiabao was already working. The two had to wait outside the door until they saw Zhao Jiabao leaving with satisfaction. They reappeared, entered the **** shop, and prepared to inquire. Inquire about the situation.
The old man greeted with a blank face: “What do you two want to be?”
Jiang Suisui lay on the counter and asked in a low voice, “Master, I want to ask, how much money did he get for that person just now?”
Old man: “I’m sorry, this is the privacy of the guests and will not be disclosed to the public.”
Jiang Suisui’s eyes rolled, and he said, “Master, I understand. But the man just now was the prodigal cousin of my second uncle’s family. He was defeated, and now he has been kicked out of the house to sever the relationship. But recently he owed a large gambling debt again, and he sneaked back home yesterday and stole all the things from the house, which our ancestors uploaded. The heirlooms have been stolen!”
“We thought that somehow we were relatives before, so we didn’t report the crime for the time being. We wanted to talk to him first and let him return the things. But he didn’t listen to his virtues, so we followed him here.”
Old man: “This is the housework of the two of you, it has nothing to do with the pawnshop.”
Seeing that the old man was unmoved, Jiang Suisui said again: “Of course of course, so I just want to find out what he has become and how much money he has? I will ask him that he will definitely not say it, but Wan Once he pawned my family heirloom, it would be terrible! We must report the crime and recover it.”
Seeing that the old man heard the word “Report”, his expression changed a little. Jiang Suisui hurriedly drove the railroad while it was still hot: “He has now severed ties with our family, so this is a theft, and it is illegal to **** the stolen thing. Of course, we don’t want to embarrass you. You just need to tell us what he was doing. If it’s important, we will catch him now and let him spit out the money to redeem things, so that the reporting step is avoided. Are you right? “
“Of course,” she added, “if there is nothing important, we don’t care.”
