Time passed by minute by second, and the sun set in the west. Although the mood of the people was still very violent, the gambling stalls always had to close, and the guys inside also had to go to bed.
When it got completely dark, the banknote exchange price on the blackboard stayed at a high level of one to eight hundred and twenty-eight. At this time, the number had not changed, because the boss of Qinglong who had shouted hoarsely was swinging the deadbolt of the door. Yelling in the bank lobby.
"Everyone, go home! We are out of business. If you want to exchange money again, just wait until tomorrow morning! I don't want to serve you anymore. You are so heartless that you can't serve me. Give me a cup of tea. You're going to kill me!" "
The gang members were so violent in clearing the place. They swung the door locks and drove hundreds of people out of the hall. No one cared about the people's wails, let alone listened to their pleas.
"Go, go, go! Go to the door and close the business. Damn it, if you don't get enough water and rice for a day, it will really kill you!"
Pieces of dark hardwood door panels were erected, and the fixed door bolts were stuck at the back. Even if there were thousands of troops outside, they would not be able to attack. When the last door panel was closed, the gambling stall suddenly burst into cheers.
"We're getting rich! We're getting rich!" Boss Qinglong made a leap and threw himself into a mountain of sacks. It was full of money and bundles of banknotes, and the pile was higher than the mountain.
"It's great. Grandpa, I can also experience the feeling of sleeping in money. I will sleep here tonight! No one is allowed to stop me from preparing the food and wine we have hidden in advance. It can be regarded as a day of celebration. Well, long live the Prime Minister!"
Jars after jars of rice wine were patted open, and the rich aroma of the torn silk cloth filled the hall. No one went out to buy food today. They knew that Suzhou City had already closed down at this moment, and no one was there. The restaurant is still open, so going out is in vain.
Fortunately, people had prepared countless sauced duck, bacon, ham, and roasted chicken in advance. The boss of the gambling stall and the guys gathered around the big chunks of beef and stretched out their hands to tear each one into pieces. Their faces were covered in oil.
Eat large pieces of meat and drink from large bowls. After three bowls of wine, people will talk more.
"Boss, you finally told us the truth today. I had long guessed that we were working for the Prime Minister. What happens now? Boss has admitted it!"
"By the way, boss, does it prove that the prime minister has won if we accept Nan's votes so openly? Have all those Rakshasa ghosts been driven into the sea to feed the bastards?"
"Do you still need to ask this? It's all nonsense. The southern ticket will be valuable soon, so we collect it. Or are we stupid and collect waste paper for fun?"
The guys laughed, cursed, and fought, and the wine in the wine jar was drained like water.
At this time, a triangular-eyed accountant sneaked up to Boss Qinglong and whispered, "Brother, we collected nearly 20 million banknotes today. This is all money. How much do you think we should keep? Is 30% enough?"
Before he finished speaking, Boss Qinglong's expression changed and he immediately locked his throat with his hands like lightning. "What did you say? Damn you bastard, how dare you touch the Prime Minister's money? Are you out of your mind?"
After saying that, a sharp dagger emerged from his hand. He pointed it at the accountant's chest and picked up the satin robe. A large gash was cut open, and a shallow trace of blood leaked out.
"Brother, don't, don't, don't, don't! I just said it casually. I really didn't mean anything else. I only have your best interests at heart. I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."
There was a smell of urine in the air, and the coward was so frightened that he peed his pants.
The triangular eyes were thrown aside by the boss, and the sharp dagger was inserted into the seam of the bricks with a clang. "I'm going to say something ugly first. All this money belongs to the prime minister. We will be satisfied with the high salary offered by the prime minister. It's just us." Aren't you satisfied that the Prime Minister can even offer you a high salary of five hundred yuan a month for the gangsters?"
"Whoever dares to use their brains, I will dig out his heart to see what color it is! Do you hear me clearly?"
"Listen clearly!" There was a horrified response in the hall.
The boss frightened everyone when he saw it, then he smiled and picked up the wine bowl, "Come on, come on, after finishing this bowl, I will tell you a piece of good news. The senior officials of the CIA have said that as long as this mission is completed well, we will all If we can change our identity to a Chinese, hahaha, when the time comes, if we want to make a fortune in the Qing Dynasty, we can make a fortune in the Qing Dynasty, and if we want to live among the Chinese, then we can live among the Chinese!"
"Really!" Everyone at the scene was excited. Even Triangle Eyes had forgotten the fear just now and crawled over from the ground. "Can you really become Chinese? I heard that the Chinese policemen didn't dare to go to the foreign concessions. Stop it, is it true?"
"That's right. I heard that the Chinese people in Nanyang are so ambitious that they organize their own troops to fight against the kings of the local states! They have already seized a lot of land and are about to establish a country!"
Boss Qinglong was so drunk that he tore open his clothes, "That's right! I admire the Prime Minister. A scholar can do such a big thing. Everyone in our Jianghukou is a hero, but compared to the Prime Minister, he is just a crawler on the ground!" "
"Foreigners don't rub dirt in their eyes. They have now divided the Chinese into three, six or nine grades. The Chinese are the first, even ranked ahead of the Manchus. If you don't believe me, go to the Shanghai Concession to show your identity. As long as you are Chinese, if you can just enter those foreign shops, and everyone greets them with a smile, then you can treat them like VIPs!"
"Face, this is such a big deal! Face does not come in vain, it is fought by the Prime Minister's army. But to fight a war, you need money. If you don't have money, you can't fight. So, the money in this house belongs to the Chinese. Military expenses, if anyone dares to embezzle even one yuan, I will chop him alive! Do you hear me clearly?"
"Don't worry, boss. If you hear me clearly, let's change our household registration to Chinese. In the future, we can hold our heads high in front of the foreign devils. It's worth it to be able to turn around like this in this life!"
There were cheers and laughter inside the Lotte Bank branch, but in contrast, there was wailing outside the bank. Several corpses were placed on the ground in the small square. Relatives surrounded the corpses and cried loudly. These were all people who were squeezed to death in one day. common people.
But death is death, no one stands up for them, the government doesn't care, the Hunan Army doesn't care, they can't even find the murderer, so death can only be in vain.
Around the weeping relatives, there are many people wandering like ghosts. They are people who have not exchanged their silver coins today. They don't know if the door will be open tomorrow. If it is not open tomorrow, their last hope will be It's ruined.
Willow Bugs seemed to be in the ghost town of Fengdu at this moment. He was the only living person in the entire city, and the people around him were all walking corpses. They were wandering aimlessly, with no expression on their faces but dullness.
"This city is dead! Why is this city dead? Why don't you listen to me? If you hold on to the banknotes for a few days, there will be hope. Why don't you listen to me?"
