The historian drove the car, and Hu Zhong led the way on his motorcycle. We didn't go far, and there was really a big road.
The two gangsters kept begging Zheng Bajin in the car to let them go.
At first, they felt that entering the police station was better than being handed over to Hu Laohu, and they would not risk death. However, they began to regret it and hoped that Zheng Bajin would be soft-hearted and let them go and give them a chance to start a new life.
However, Zheng Bajin was unmoved and said that if you kill someone, you will have to pay with your life. Later, he couldn't listen to the two people's pleading, so he simply took off his socks and stuffed their mouths. Let them save their energy and go to the police station to speak up if they have anything to say, so that they can save their own worries.
After getting on the main road and driving for dozens of kilometers, it was already bright and the sun came out, shining on the earth. We arrived at Jichuan County and handed the two people over to the police station.
When the police station heard that these two men had committed a murder and almost killed Hu Laohu's son, they did not dare to neglect them and took them into custody. They also invited the three of them into the office, made them some delicious tea, and recorded their confessions. .
When the three of them came out, Zheng Bajin and Shi Shi both said they were leaving. Hu Zhong became anxious when he heard this, saying that they had all arrived in Jichuan and wanted to have a meal at least to thank the two for their life-saving grace.
The historian really wanted to leave, because he took the wrong road, wasted a whole night, wasted a lot of gas, and almost had a problem. He was still scared just thinking about it.
However, Zheng Bajin did not intend to leave so soon. He was just pretending to leave, lest people misunderstand that he had a purpose in saving people.
After hearing what Hu Zhong said, he smiled and said, "Why are you so polite? I won't eat anymore. There will be many opportunities in the future."
Hu Zhong said hurriedly: "It will be rare to have such an opportunity in the future. You two need to eat anyway. If you leave the city and you can't find anything to eat within dozens of kilometers, why not just eat here."
Zheng Bajin thought for a while and agreed pretending to be embarrassed.
The historian still wanted to object, but after hearing that he had to walk dozens of kilometers to find food, and seeing that Zheng Bajin had already agreed, he couldn't object. He happened to be a little hungry now.
Jichuan in the 1990s was not big, no more than half the size of Qiucheng. There are not many high-rise buildings, most of them are tile-roofed houses with brick facades.
There are not many cars on the street, only some small trucks passing by occasionally. They honk their horns when they see people, as if they are afraid that others will not know that they are driving a car.
Under the leadership of the historian, Zheng Bajin quickly passed through the streets and arrived in the center of the city, where there was a row of four-story houses covering an area of about 500 square meters.
There are four big characters written on it: Jichuan Hotel.
Hu Zhong had stopped and Zhaohu Shishi parked the car on the street.
Zheng Bajin was a little stunned. Didn't this guy say that his family didn't give him any money? With the little money he collects from scrap metal, can he have a meal in a hotel like this?
"This place in Jichuan is too small and cannot compare with Qiucheng. This is already the best hotel. Let's just have something to eat!" Hu Zhong looked a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, the friendship between gentlemen is as light as water. As long as Brother Hu has this intention, it doesn't matter whether the food is good or bad." Zheng Bajin said with a smile.
"You still have to eat well. You can eat whatever you want here. My old man won't let me spend money randomly, but I'm not stingy with food. I can eat whatever I want, as long as I sign the bill." Hu Zhong said, with The two entered the hotel door.
There were no security guards inside. A worker was cleaning the house. When he saw a guest arriving, he did not raise his head. He just said habitually: "Good morning, gentlemen!"
"Morning, give me the most luxurious private room. I want to entertain the most distinguished guests." Hu Zhong said, taking Zheng Bajin upstairs.
The historian followed behind, his heart pounding. He had never entered such a luxurious hotel. Although I have made some money from sports cars these days, it is all hard-earned money and I will not squander it like this. Even if I occasionally drive for sex in the city, I will just go to some small hotels, grab a fast food and leave. It saves money and leaves no future trouble.
He glanced at Zheng Bajin and saw that he was calm as usual.
In fact, Zheng Bajin had already guessed that this hotel was owned by Hu Zhong's family, and he would get nothing if he didn't eat.
Sure enough, the cleaning lady raised her head and looked at Hu Zhong. She was startled and said, "Sir, why are you here so early?"
"Boss Hu came here early in the morning to check and asked if you had been here or spent the night here?" Auntie continued.
Hu Zhong felt happy. It seemed that the old man had not discovered that he was riding a bike. He nodded and said, "I went out to play for a while last night, nothing to make a fuss about."
There were not many guests upstairs, so naturally he was still sleeping at such an early hour, which was no match for Chun Kun, who lived a fast-paced life.
"The rest area is on the third floor. Would you like to take a rest first? It seems a little early now." Hu Zhong glanced at Zheng Bajin and said.
"No, let's just eat something. We have to hurry. The car is carrying goods. It's not good if it takes too long for fear of spoilage." Zheng Bajin explained.
"Oh, what is it?" Hu Zhong said, leading the two of them into room 202. Although it is not as good as the heaven and earth in later big cities, in such a small city and in this era, it can be considered well-decorated. Exquisite presence.
"This large private room is basically not available at night, and there is no one in the morning." Hu Zhong explained.
Zheng Bajin nodded and said: "I pulled some ham and brought it to the workers to eat. The main reason is that the weather is too hot and it will deteriorate if it is kept stuffy for a long time."
"Why do you have to carry ham so far? There is it in this city. By the way, what business does eldest brother do in Chun Kun?"
"Opened a bicycle factory." Zheng Bajin said casually, casually sitting on a chair.
At this time, a beautiful waitress came in and gave them a pot of tea.
"You are the big boss. Sit inside. It will be convenient for the food to be served later." Hu Zhong looked at Zheng Bajin and said politely.
"Hello, boss!" The waiter gave Zheng Bajin a sweet smile, which made Master Shi's heart move.
Zheng Bajin just nodded politely and didn't respond too much.
At this time, a middle-aged man got the news and walked into the room. He looked at Hu Zhong with a somewhat majestic expression.
Hu Zhong stood up hurriedly and introduced: "This is my father Hu Hai, and this is Boss Zheng. Thanks to him for saving me, otherwise I would never see you again."
Hu Hai's expression changed. He looked at Zheng Bajing and said, "Thank you, boss, for saving my son. If there is anything you need me to do, just ask me. As long as I can do it, I will do it."
"No, no, I didn't know he was your son, I was just passing by." Zheng Bajin naturally didn't want to make a request at this time. It was too obvious, so he said lightly, "I just passed by with a little ham, which is strange. When I fell asleep at night, the master was unfamiliar with the road and ran the wrong way. It was precisely because of this that he rescued Hu Zhong by mistake."
"Ham, are you in the ham business? It just so happens that I have a restaurant here, why don't you order some for me?" Although Hu Hai thought this was a bit strange, he agreed to buy some ham.
