Dong Qiangqiang's impression of Gypsies was still based on the movies he watched on TV when he was a child and this kind of poignant love story, so when Lao Bai issued the warning, he paid special attention to the people around his target.
Because of their distinctive clothing, Gypsy girls in shopping streets are easily identifiable. They were seen in small groups, some wearing colorful scarves on their heads, or hanging various brightly colored necklaces around their necks, wearing colorful and contrasting exotic costumes, especially bohemian style wide ruffled skirts. The pendulum made them sway in the wind as they walked, making them look particularly charming with every smile.
Dong Qiangqiang heard Lao Bai say that when a male tourist encounters such a woman's initiative to strike up a conversation, his mind will be rippled, and he may say goodbye to his wallet if he is distracted.
When he noticed a group of gorgeous gypsy girls quickly surrounding his clients and accosting them, Dong Qiangqiang walked directly through the crowd and stood behind his team members, reminding them in Chinese to pay attention to their belongings and warning them bluntly in English: We don't need you. For any service, please do not disturb us for shopping.
The gypsy girl who touched the soft nail gave Dong Qiangqiang a dissatisfied smile, and then patted her belly gently. Only then did Dong Qiangqiang notice the swollen pregnant belly of the other party. He didn't know whether the opponent had a real baby or a ball in his belly, so he could only continue to smile and chase them away. The other party showed no concern for Dong Qiangqiang's alertness. After winking with his companions, he quickly dispersed into the crowd and headed for the next target.
Dong Qiangqiang looked around and saw that Lao Bai, Tong Lele, Lei Lanting and others were in similar situations to him. The gypsy girl wanders around among the tourists and returns within a few minutes. The two of them were like whack-a-mole, chasing each other away every few minutes. But the other party is quite resilient. The more times Dong Qiangqiang and the others drive them away, the more convinced they are that they can gain something.
Thanks to the high vigilance of several people, no group members suffered any financial losses. But soon, Lao Bai was summoned away by members of the group who wanted to go shopping. Lei Lanting wanted to learn business from Lao Bai, but before he left, he discovered that in addition to the increase in Gypsies around him, there was also a sudden increase in black faces.
Just as he was hesitating whether to leave, a young female member was tied with a colorful rope on her wrist by a half-grown black boy with lightning speed. Before the girl could react, the black boy had already spread his fingers, shook his hands from side to side, and spoke a lot of unclear words quickly in non-standard English. The young girl was a little confused, and in her daze she could only understand the one word the other party said, which was "5 euros."
The person guarding the young girl was Tong Lele. She had been concentrating on guarding against the gypsies, but she didn't expect to be caught off guard by the black man. But she had no experience in dealing with this kind of thing, so she could only ask Dong Qiangqiang for help.
Dong Qiangqiang quickly made a reciprocal gesture with her, indicating that she would take care of her team members while he would handle the matter.
"What happened just now?" Dong Qiangqiang walked to the young female member, lowered his head and asked, "Do you want to buy this?"
"I didn't say a word to him at all. I was still picking things here, and he...he suddenly tied this rope to my hand. I don't know what happened..." The girl was already anxious and almost crying. "I definitely won't buy it."
"If you don't buy it, just take it off and return it to him." Dong Qiangqiang instructed, "Don't cry, it's okay."
"5 euros. 5 euros..." the black boy yelled and looked around. When he turned around, he saw that the girl had stopped crying and started to untie the rope. He glared at Dong Qiangqiang dissatisfiedly, then reached out to dig through the girl's satchel.
Dong Qiangqiang grabbed his wrist and threw him aside, shouting angrily in English: "What are you doing?"
His move was completely unconscious. After he finished it, he realized that he had stabbed an ant's nest, and a group of black men of various heights, short, fat, and thin were surrounding him from all directions.
The scene suddenly became tense.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Lei Lanting hurriedly called to the patrol policeman who was more than ten meters away.
Since the Milan airport was threatened with a bomb in January, all major public places in Italy have been filled with police for prevention and control as a precaution.
The two patrol policemen drove away the melon-eating crowd and walked towards the center of the crowd. Across the crowd, they saw four black and short fat men surrounding Dong Qiangqiang and a thin girl. The four of them looked at Dong Qiangqiang with ferocious faces, as if they wanted to eat him. From time to time, someone pushed Dong Qiangqiang from behind, and he was almost pushed down several times.
Although he was outnumbered, Dong Qiangqiang was completely fearless. While protecting the girl, he looked for the nearest surveillance camera. There were many people on the other side, and he remembered what Lao Bai said: the safety of the group members must be ensured.
Seeing that Dong Qiangqiang refused to resist, the pushing became more and more intense. Just when Dong Qiangqiang could no longer hold himself back and was about to fight back, the police whistled and walked up to several people.
"What are you doing?" The policeman who asked was white and fat, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He looked very polite, and his English pronunciation was weird but still understandable. "This is a public place." Although he He tried to look stern, but his demeanor didn't convey the effect he wanted to convey at all.
Seeing the police turning to look at him, Dong Qiangqiang explained in a deep voice in English: "They want to forcefully sell this rope to us. If we don't want to buy it, they are going to beat us."
"Is that so?" the fat policeman asked one of the fat little black men.
"This woman said the rope looked good and asked me to tie it for her to see the effect. As soon as I tied it, she said something to the man, and then he came over and beat me, trying to drive me away. My companion looked at They were blackmailing and beating people, so they quickly gathered around to prevent them from escaping. Mr. Police, what I said is absolutely true, I am here as a witness..." The little black fat man spoke plausibly in Italian while secretly waving to the crowd of onlookers. .
"What he said is true, sir, these Asians take things without paying and beat people, we can't let them go!" someone among the onlookers shouted.
"We cannot let these foreigners act so wildly on our territory. We must teach them how to talk to us..."
"Mr. Police, they are racially discriminatory..."
…
The shouts and curses were rising one after another. Some indignant people even started to spit at Dong Qiangqiang and others, and some people came close to Tong Lele and other girls, looking at them with malicious intent.
Although Dong Qiangqiang cannot understand Italian, he also understands the principle of "a lot of words make gold, but accumulation will destroy bones". He guessed that in all likelihood the other party had poured dirty water on him, and hurriedly explained: "We don't want to buy this rope at all. The rope can be returned to the other party now. If you don't believe me, you can check the door of that store. Surveillance," he told the police, pointing at the surveillance.
The two policemen whispered to each other for about a minute. The fat policeman nodded to his companion, turned to Dong Qiangqiang and said in non-standard English: "This is a public place. Your actions have disrupted the normal order of the market. I can now I will take you back and ask you to assist in the investigation, but I will give you a chance now to solve it on your own through negotiation. If you make any noise or fight again and affect the normal operation of other shops here, then I will take you all back to the police Bureau. Do you understand?" As he spoke, he shook his head and glanced at the little black fat man, and asked casually: "How much does the rope cost?"
"Only 5 euros." The fat little black man spread his hands and looked at Dong Qiangqiang innocently, as if he was laughing at him: What can you do to me?
Dong Qiangqiang understood as soon as he heard that the Italian police were fighting with Xi Ni. Just as he was about to argue, he heard someone behind him say something in a language he couldn't understand. Then he saw a hand handing Xiao Hei a 5 euro note. Fat man.
In Dong Qiangqiang's surprised eyes, he saw that the person handing the money was Lao Bai.
The fat policeman nodded with satisfaction and winked at the fat little black man. The fat little black man collected the money proudly, blew the whistle, and turned around to leave.
The crowd that had been surrounding the three floors just now dispersed with a roar, and within a minute the scene returned to the scene before the quarrel, as if nothing had happened.
