In fact, for a moment, I wanted to lend him 20,000 yuan, because I felt that it was really unacceptable for a good grown man to be forced to death for a mere 20,000 yuan.
But then I thought, I can't do that. There are too many people to save in this world, and I am not a wealthy person. Can I save them?
Besides, I'm not a rich man, so don't pretend to be the Virgin Mary.
But his current problem is lack of money. I guess he has thought of all the ways to make money that I can think of, but they must all be ineffective, so he wants to commit suicide.
I scratched my head and said, don't think so much now, come with me, I will take you to have a meal, and then help you think of a solution, isn't it just 20,000 yuan, it's a piece of cake.
Actually, I don't have much else to do, but at least I'll get him off the bridge first.
Hearing what I said, his eyes ignited some hope, so he walked off the bridge with me, and then I took him to find Uncle Ma.
Uncle Ma stopped listening to singing at this time and ran to the side to watch someone playing the saxophone. I saw that the fair lady just now had been replaced, and now an old lady in her sixties was singing the red plum praise.
I didn't have the heart to tease him, so I walked over with the big brother Tiaojiang, and briefly told Uncle Ma what happened just now.
Of course, I didn't say it in front of a group of people, but pulled Uncle Ma aside. After all, jumping into the river is quite embarrassing.
Uncle Ma laughed after hearing this and said that this is nothing, brother, don't get angry, my apprentice is a warm-hearted person, let's go, let's go to eat first, after we have a full stomach, we will find a solution naturally.
Seeing how confident he was, I was slightly relieved, because although Uncle Ma looked unreliable, he was actually very reliable. If he said there was a way, then there must be a way.
The place to eat this time was chosen by Uncle Ma, the Sichuan Restaurant on Youyi Road, where we ate Sichuan cuisine.
When I mention this store, I can't help but drool.
Many friends in Harbin know that the owner of this restaurant is authentic Sichuanese and the dishes taste great. It is said to be the most authentic Sichuan restaurant in Harbin.
I actually don’t know if it’s authentic or not, but the taste of his food is indeed very suitable for Northeastern people. The main thing is spicy and delicious.
We arrived at the restaurant quickly. Since it was not meal time and the seats were not full, we easily found a quiet place to sit down.
Uncle Ma didn't even need to look at the menu, he just ordered a pot of boiled fish, a dish of spicy chicken, and a plate of stir-fried beans.
These are his specialty dishes and almost must-orders.
After waiting for a while, a large basin full of boiled fish came up, heavy, trembling, and suddenly appeared in front of us.
That fragrance hits your nostrils instantly.
On the way here, we have already talked with Brother Tiaojiang. His surname is Liu. I won’t say his name. It would be embarrassing to mention it, so let’s call him Brother Liu.
After our guidance along the way, his mood has become much more stable. As soon as the boiled fish arrived, we picked up our chopsticks and ate it.
This boiled fish, the fish meat is fresh, paired with the numbness of peppercorns, the spiciness of sea peppers, and it is also full of fried garlic slices!
Bean sprouts, fungus, cucumber, garlic, these side dishes are no less impressive!
Pick off a large piece of fish, dip it in some soup, and put it on the rice. You can perform the rice disappearing trick in minutes!
Soon the spicy chicken came. It was spicy but also had the sweetness of fresh chicken. Pick up a piece of chicken and feel the numbness filling your mouth while chewing...
That’s just one word, cool!
Stir-fried green beans are also a great addition to rice. The oily green beans are charred on the outside and tender on the inside, which goes well with rice. The crispy fried chili segments and peppercorns also give the stir-fried green beans a spicy taste.
Let me first state that I will not confiscate the advertising fee. The smell is really too memorable, so if the owner of this store sees it, I hope you will pay it voluntarily...
Brother Liu, who jumped into the river, was sweating profusely after eating and finished two large bowls of rice.
When I finally put down my chopsticks, I asked him with a smile.
"How about it, let's stay alive, okay?"
He sighed and touched his belly: "Yeah, it's better to be alive. If you die, you won't be able to eat anything. Brother Wu, Brother Ma, thank you..."
Uncle Ma gritted his teeth and said: "You are so inferior, but it's up to you. You can call me whatever you want. Now that the meal is over and you don't want to die, I'll ask you again, are you really at the end of your rope?" , is there nothing you can do?"
Brother Liu sighed again: "Yes, I can't borrow money or get a loan. My wife calls me a waste, and I am indeed a waste. I can't even support a family of three, let alone two parents and four As an old man, what should I bear in the future? So the more I thought about it, the more hopeless I became. I didn’t know if someone was trying to trick me these days. I always felt like there was a villain in my ear telling me, you are so useless, you might as well die. Forget it, go die quickly..."
Uncle Ma nodded: "Don't be too depressed. The villain you are talking about is actually your subconscious mind. Don't think about ghosts and gods."
Brother Liu asked cautiously: "Brother Ma, what should I do now?"
Uncle Ma said: "Since you have tried every method, have you ever thought of a way?"
Brother Liu hurriedly asked: "What way? Brother Ma, tell me, as long as I can get money, I will definitely go."
Uncle Ma didn't speak, just smiled slightly, then dipped his hand in the water in the tea cup and wrote a word on the table.
bet!
When I saw this word, my eyelids twitched involuntarily. I looked up at Uncle Ma and thought to myself, this old guy, isn't he instigating a crime?
Of course, strictly speaking, gambling is not a crime. It depends on the specific circumstances to see whether it constitutes a crime.
But this is always a crooked path.
Not only me, Brother Liu also looked a little uneasy.
Uncle Ma saw what we meant, glanced at me first, looked at Brother Liu and said, "You are not afraid of death, but are you still afraid of gambling?"
There is nothing wrong with this. I am not afraid of death anymore. What is gambling?
Brother Liu shook his head repeatedly: "Brother, I understand what you mean, but the problem is that I don't know these things at all. I only know how to play poker, and my card skills are not that good. Even if I gamble, I will still lose money. ah."
Uncle Ma smiled: "If you think about it, I will teach you a way to win 20,000 yuan or even more overnight. But there is a condition, that is, you can only bet this time and win. Can you stop it immediately and live a good life?"
Brother Liu's expression gradually changed. He looked at Uncle Ma and said, "Brother, if there is such a way, I am willing to try it. Anyway, I am not afraid of losing. At worst, I will jump into the river again."
I was a little worried and asked Uncle Ma in a low voice: "Is your method sure to work? If he owes a lot of gambling debts, it may not be him who jumps into the river by then. It may be the two of them together."
Uncle Ma said confidently: "Don't worry, I have a way to make him win every bet!"
