Chapter2:Market scams and holding your head down

"By the way, what are we going to do now?" After leaving the police station, Wang Bohua walked side by side with Li Ming in the street and asked.

With his hands in his trouser pockets, Li Ming thought for a while and said, "I plan to go to the convenience store to settle the salary owed to me first, and then take Xiaoshu outside to relax. After all, her mother's death is still a big blow to her."

Man is an animal with social attributes, so Li Ming needs to maintain this broken family, so as to determine his anchor point in this world.

Memory and blood relationship make Li Mingtong connect with this strange world, and the connection is her sister, Xiao Shu, who has a week's life experience with herself.

Xiao Shu is Li Ming's sister, whose real name is Li Xiaoshu, one year younger than Li Ming, and in the lower grade of the same school, so Wang Bohua is also very familiar with it.

As for the sister named Li Xizhu, because the extraordinary university is far away from home, and the vacation time she asked for is really not plentiful, Li Minghe only gets along briefly at her mother's funeral.

Unaware that Li Ming's words implied that he didn't need to relax, Wang Bohua sighed and asked with a surprised and puzzled expression, "Pay? Don't you go to the convenience store to work in the future?"

Wang Bohua knew that Li Ming's father ran a supermarket before gambling. At that time, his income was generally good, so he bought this independent old house.

But with the bad habit of gambling, my father's supermarket mortgage became a convenience store,

It didn't take long for supermarkets to become convenience stores, and now even convenience stores are not their own.

After the convenience store changed hands, Li Ming worked part-time in the store in his spare time. Besides subsidizing his family, he occasionally bought some temporary food at a very low price to improve his sister's food.

Only the convenience store owner took Li Ming's painful foot, which was extremely short of money, so he was used as a few people. In the past, Li Ming had to grind his teeth and endure for his sister and his own living expenses.

In the face of this inquiry, Li Ming smiled mockingly and answered this question.

"There is a more subversive truth about this issue-the essence of wages is the means of enslavement, especially when you are poor to a certain extent."

Looking at the bustling streets and shuttling vehicles in front of me, Li Ming spread his hands and then continued, "If I am really trapped in the role of struggling for my livelihood, the heavy work will make me have no energy to think at all. And when survival becomes the only goal, I really can't turn over."

"What you said is really getting more and more incomprehensible." After another habitual scratch, Wang said, "So... when are you going back to school?"

"Well, the day after tomorrow." Li Ming replied.

As they walked and said, they had already walked to the door of the convenience store before they knew it.

There is a news broadcast on the TV at the front desk of the convenience store: "Recently, the extraordinary committee officially defined the Trinity Association as a terrorist organization. The following is a list of wanted persons..."

"Xiaoming, have you handled your family affairs?" The speaker is a seemingly amiable aunt, who is also the proprietress of this convenience store.

Li Ming showed a clever smile on his face and then nodded his head.

"Alas, I'm sorry to change. In fact, you can rest for a few more days." Auntie's face showed a look of emotion, shook her head and said.

"Aunt Sun, I came here this time to tell you that I am leaving. Thank you for your care for so long." Li Ming said modestly and politely.

Upon hearing Li Ming's resignation, Aunt Sun's eyelids immediately drooped, and her eyes shook from side to side in her eyes, then her tone rose and she said, "Let's go one yard at a time. You haven't worked for a few days this month."

I know that Aunt Sun is not going to give money, but Li Ming is not angry. Instead, he scratched his head like Wang Bohua, and then said awkwardly, "Aunt, you misunderstood. I am not here to ask for money, but simply thank you."

Hearing that Li Ming didn't come to ask for money, Aunt Sun's stingy market expression converged, and then turned into a pity to say, "Xiaoming, it's time for your family to use money, and the current part-time job is not so easy to find. Do you want to stop thinking about it?"

Cut, is nothing more than reluctant to work hard labor.

"There is only one semester left in the third year of high school, and my dad sent me some money, which is enough time..." After taking a glance and reconfirming that there is no monitoring facility in the store, Li Ming stretched out his hand and patted his bag, then said with mirth, "Aunt Sun, you also know that I have the habit of eating sugar with hypoglycemia. Please help me install ten" Qiaoxin "brand lollipops."

As the voice fell, Li Ming reached into his bag, pulled out a thousand-dollar bill from the envelope given by Wang Bohua, and put it on the table at will.

The largest denomination of this country's currency is 1000 yuan, while the price of ten high-end sweets is only 50 yuan.

"It's so big, let me see if the change is enough..." Although the face value of the money is large, there is no reason to refuse to open the door for business. After taking a look at the real money, Aunt Sun accepted the money and changed it at the same time.

Just when Li Ming took the change, he suddenly opened his mouth and interrupted, "Aunt Sun, I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that there seems to be change..."

Reaching out his hand to signal Aunt Sun to return thousands of yuan to himself, Li Ming bowed his head and took out his wallet and rummaged it over.

At this time, people who came to the store to buy things behind Li Ming and Wang Bohua had already lined up behind them, and the host of the TV news program was saying with a serious face, "... and there is sufficient evidence that this organization and many people who use the extraordinary ability to harm society at present

The action is related. Please call the police at the first time when you see the above personnel... "

Take the lead and look up at the TV. The picture above is a woman with deep eyes and long hair.

At the same time, Li Ming's other hand from

I pulled out a fifty-dollar bill in my wallet and handed it out. Then I got out of my way and let the people behind me come forward to pay the bill.

And the hanging hand quietly put the change into his pocket.

Aunt Sun didn't react to the tricks at all. On the one hand, because Li Ming looked up and unconsciously scanned the picture on TV, the other side also took out the previous banknote with a face value of 1,000 yuan and gave it back to Li Ming. His mouth also said with emotion, "This world is really chaotic. How good a little girl is wanted..."

Looking back, Li Ming bowed his head and glanced at the thousand-dollar bill at will, smiled, stuffed the money into his wallet, and then said, "Aunt Sun, then I will go first."

...

The famous "change before the whole" scam in previous lives. By distracting the deceived people's attention, they can faint each other and cheat the change of the market scam. Common in railway stations, crowded supermarkets and convenience stores, etc.

It seems that this routine is not deep, but as long as you perform naturally enough, it is extremely easy to be fooled!

Even after being discovered, Li Ming, who has become poor now, doesn't care if he has the cheek to have a confusing wrangling for this money.

After leaving the convenience store, Li Ming took out the change in his trouser pocket as usual, smoothed the folds one by one, and then placed it neatly in his wallet.

Looking at the scene before us, Wang Bohua fell silent in disbelief.

To be small, this may be a prank with a small amount of money, but Wang Bohua vaguely felt that something was wrong from Li Ming's extremely indifferent and not excited manner.

After following Li Ming for a while, Wang Bohua finally couldn't help but say, "Li Ming... you are a fraud!"

Li Ming peeled off a lollipop and stuffed it into his mouth. Then he turned to look at Wang Bohua and said indifferently, "Are you going to choose to report me?"

"I didn't mean that..." Wang Bohua explained anxiously.

Li Ming stretched out his hand and pinched the white sugar rod, and then said with a face of indifference, "Isn't that over?"

"Li Ming, you have changed too much. I know that the death of my mother has a great impact on you, but you can't go astray." Wang Bohua stubbornly looked at Li Ming and said sadly.

Is Li Ming, who is excellent in both academic performance and sincere and kind, really gone? "I'm only saying this once." After a few seconds of silence, Li Ming sighed and said seriously, "I want to fight for what I want, so I can only rely on myself. It's too slow to walk step by step, and it's really difficult to turn over, so... this is just the beginning."

"But this is wrong!" Wang Bohua was somewhat difficult to accept Li Ming's point of view, so he asked angrily.

After hearing Wang Bohua's question, Li Ming moved his neck and replied, "I am different from you. You have a good family and good parents, but I don't."

"Even so, but you can't..." Wang Bohua some don't know how to persuade his friends, so his face showed an anxious look.

Changing the lollipop in his mouth to the other side, Li Ming said patiently and seriously, "But the reality is that now I am as low as the dust, so if I want to get ahead, I have to dare to eat people, and I have to refuse to admit defeat and accept my fate..."

Holding a white sugar rod and pumping the round candy out of his mouth, Li Ming patted Wang Bohua on the shoulder, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, I am ready to be held down by the police without crying."

"But..."

Before Wang Bohua finished, Li Ming waved his hand and interrupted Wang Bohua's awkward action. Then he stuffed the lollipop back into his mouth and turned around and waved and said, Nothing but... "

After that, Li Ming walked forward by himself, leaving Wang Bohua with a figure gradually elongated under the backlight.

"Hello?!" "

Let's go. See you on the talent test the day after tomorrow. "
