Chapter 23 Prize Collection
Nike man Du Xiaobing chose the nearby Chunjiang Hotel. There were not many people in the hotel. The three of them changed several tables in a row before finding a place to sit down.
Because I don’t know how long it has been since I repaired this solid wood table, it shakes very hard.
They each took turns washing their hands and came back, Fang Yan sat alone on one side of the table, Du Xiaobing and Lu Dong sat on the other side.
Seeing that no one came to greet him, Du Xiaobing shouted to the front desk: "Waiter, order food."
A response sounded: "Come here to get the menu by yourself."
Du Xiaobing had no choice but to get the menu and ask Lu Dong and Fang Yan to order dishes.
The three of them were polite and after ordering the dishes, Du Xiaobing shouted again: "Waiter..."
Before he finished speaking, a sound in the kitchen sounded: "What did you order? Come over with the menu."
It seems that Du Xiaobing is a waiter, and they are the customers.
Since Du Xiaobing chose this place for a treat, it is difficult for him to change the place. He sent it back to the menu and brought the chopsticks, teacup and teapot together.
This situation is very obvious. If you don’t go and get it, no one will send it to you.
"State-owned hotel, what a great man." Du Xiaobing poured water for Lu Dong and Fang Yan: "I will never come to the state-owned hotel for dinner in the future."
Fang Yan pushed down the black-framed glasses: "Chunjiang is pretty good, the service from Bianyifang, look at people with his nostrils..."
Bianyifang is a famous time-honored brand in Quannan, and it specializes in pot stickers.
What is more famous than pot stickers is service.
Du Xiaobing said again: "The Evening News also called for the state-owned time-honored brand some time ago, calling on more time-honored brands to eat, and not let the time-honored brands disappear. Just this? It's better to disappear."
Seeing that Lu Dong didn't speak, Fang Yan was neglected and asked: "Lu Dong, did you say you were a student at the police station just now?"
Lu Dong answered: "Graduated, I'm off school."
Du Xiaobing followed and asked, "High school? How are you doing the exam?"
Lu Dong said directly: "We won't talk about the college entrance examination."
Du Xiaobing is a sports student and understands the pain of learning: "It's no big deal. I can't study either. I need sports to go to college."
Lu Dong was curious: "Are you practicing Sanda in the School of Physical Education?"
"A person who practices basketball has an average level and can only be a physical education teacher." Du Xiaobing mocked himself and asked, "Why are you guessing I am practicing Sanda?"
Lu Dong gestured: "You are very good at fighting in the car, so you kick two thieves down with one kick."
Du Xiaobing said embarrassedly: "Don't mention it. Brother, if you hadn't brought awesome biological and chemical weapons today, I would have fallen. It's okay to hit one, but it's a big deal to hit two. You didn't hear the police say that the short man found a switchblade in his pocket. I'm really scared."
Fang Yan was surprised: "Are you afraid? You still take action."
Du Xiaobing said, "I touched my pocket with my hands, and I just wanted to grab my wallet. I'll watch it?"
Fang Yan thought of some rumors: "A lot of people just watched their wallets be stolen."
Du Xiaobing patted Lu Dong on the shoulder: "Everyone can stand up like you, brother, so pickpockets will not be arrogant as they are today."
Fang Yan looked at Lu Dong, first reminded her, and then helped Du Xiaobing. This young man was really good.
So, she had an idea.
"Lu Dong, Du Xiaobing." Fang Yan said tentatively: "You know, I am a reporter from the Evening News and a social current affairs column. I want to write a report on what happened today and see the newspaper."
"Okay!" Du Xiaobing was very happy.
Lu Dong did not respond for the time being.
When the food arrived, the waiter finally had some professionalism and did not let him go to the kitchen to serve the food.
"When eating, talking." Du Xiaobing greeted.
Chunjiang is still a relatively authentic Shandong restaurant today. Although the service quality is better than nothing, the taste of the dishes is OK.
The three of them drank a cup of Jianlibao together, and Fang Yan reminded: "Pickpockets often commit crimes, so don't take that bus recently."
Lu Dongying said: "I understand."
Although Du Xiaobing was impulsive, he was not stupid: "I rarely take the bus, so I won't take it any more." What he was interested in was Fang Yan's words just now: "Can I see the newspaper? Can I see the newspaper?"
"It's not difficult." Fang Yan looked at Lu Dong. The boy was much more calmer than Du Xiaobing: "Lu Dong, where are you?"
Lu Dong thought for a while and said, "I have no objection, can I have a pseudonym?"
Du Xiaobing rushed to say, "Why use a pseudonym!"
Fang Yan glanced at him, Du Xiaobing smiled and shut up. Fang Yan said, "When I was in the police station, I had an idea. Bus pickpockets are becoming increasingly serious and unscrupulous. I want to write a special report based on what happened today to attract more attention. Lu Dong, you are the key to my report."
Du Xiaobing put down his chopsticks and couldn't help it again: "I'm the key, right?"
"Different." Fang Yan started from an objective standpoint: "You are the victim, and you are protecting your own rights and interests. Lu Dong is a brave act."
She said seriously: "A true role model can awaken more people."
Du Xiaobing was anxious for Lu Dong: "Brother, this is a good opportunity to show up in the newspaper!"
Fang Yan looked at Lu Dong with expectation in her eyes. Judging from the limited contact, she was a kind young man with the spirit of helping him in times of crisis.
As for caterpillars and lees, they are pets and means of maintaining life, and they can also prove that young men are self-reliant.
Lu Dong ate the dish and raised his head. He happened to see a small red mole on Fang Yan's chin. From the perspective that meets his own needs, he asked: "Is there any reward?"
The expectation in Fang Yan's eyes turned into surprise.
Du Xiaobing looked puzzled: "Brother, what are you thinking? This is going to the newspaper, the evening newspaper! The opportunity is rare!"
Lu Dong smiled: "I didn't think about anything, life."
Fang Yan's surprise flashed, but when he looked at the Nike on Du Xiaobing's body, then Lu Dong's inferior jersey, he instantly realized it.
She is also a rural person.
Lu Dong could see that Du Xiaobing was kind-hearted, but his life was different, so his needs were naturally different.
"Reporter Fang, don't newspapers all have prizes to collect news?" Lu Dong asked.
Fang Yan thought she understood Lu Dong: "I am one of the participants, so I can only fight for it." She reiterated the old saying: "Lu Dong, this matter has very positive social significance."
Lu Dong waved his hand: "I like to do good deeds without leaving a name."
Du Xiaobing was surprised: "Then what do you ask for the reward?"
Lu Dong realized that this guy was always arrogant and didn't feel embarrassed. He picked up the cup and said, "I'm very happy to meet you today. I respect you both."
Fang Yan picked up the cup and took a sip of Jianlibao. She felt more and more that this young man was different from what she thought.
Those who work as journalists all have a stubbornness of not giving up until they achieve their goals. They also said to Lu Dong, and Fang Yan decided that regardless of whether Lu Dong agreed or not, she would push the matter to be reported.
Of course, because it involves all aspects such as buses and police stations, it is not easy to pass the review.
Du Xiaobing was very enthusiastic and left a pager number for Lu Dong and Fang Yan, telling Lu Dong that the School of Physical Education would move to the newly built university town in September, asking Lu Dong to make sure to use a pager and take him to visit Qingzhao, especially wanting to see where Lu Dong caught insects.
Fang Yan left the mobile phone number for the two and asked for Lu Dong's contact address. If there is something to do, you can contact us.
Du Xiaobing went to check out the bill. Fang Yan thought of the heavy words of life and said to Lu Dong: "I am in charge of social current affairs. If you have news clues, you can call me and collect it with prizes."
Lu Dong looked at the business card and really thought of something.
But Du Xiaobing is still there, it's hard to say.
After paying the bill, the three of them left Chunjiang Hotel. Du Xiaobing was going to do business and left first.
Fang Yan was also ready to leave, but the newspaper was still busy.
Lu Dong stopped her: "Reporter Fang, I met something two days ago. It's quite strange. I can't figure it out. Please help me with the advice? Is it worth it?"
Fang Yan glanced at Du Xiaobing's leaving figure, and realized something, and pointed to the front: "Go over there to chat."
The sidewalk in front has obviously widened, and under the lush branches and leaves of the tung tree, a round stone table is placed, and four stone stools are placed around it. Because it is hot at noon, there will be no one there.
When he arrived at the stone table, Fang Yan took out a tissue, gave Lu Dong one, and then wiped the stool with another one, then sat down: "What's the matter?"
Through some contact during meals, she no longer regarded Lu Dong as an ordinary boy.
Lu Dong carefully considered the content and said selectively: "A few days ago, when I was fishing, I caught a small plate from the river and sold it to Shunshan Cultural Market. When I met an antique auction company for free appraisal, I went in and took a look. They said that the plate was worth 350,000 yuan, but I had to pay 2,000 yuan in advance for the auction..."
Hearing this, Fang Yan first felt that Lu Dong was lucky and could encounter antiques when he was fishing, but then he realized something was wrong.
In addition to the part that earned 1,000 yuan by selling the white porcelain small discs, Lu Dong roughly described what he saw and heard at the Zhengda Art Auction Company.
As for earning money from the fraudsters and selling them backhand to earn a news reward, Lu Dong had no psychological burden.
Lu Chun once said that the best way is to expose the media to avoid more people being deceived.
Lu Dongxin said: I am doing good deeds!
Fang Yan didn't understand this industry and thought carefully: "I have read relevant reports in Taidong Weekly and discussed with my colleagues who has a baby. I heard you say this, it seems a bit wrong, what's wrong?"
In the future, this may not be a very subtle scam, but in this era, it is enough to confuse most people.
"Why didn't you pay?" Fang Yan asked.
Of course, Lu Dong didn't pay money to make money, but he couldn't say that. He scratched his head and said, "I'm a very suspicious person and have little knowledge. I just thought, if I pay the money, they just found a place and spent some money to hire some people to do a fake auction. I couldn't tell it. If the goods couldn't be sold, the money would be in vain."
Fang Yan was a reporter after all, and when he heard this, he immediately thought of the key: "You said that many people lined up to identify it. If it was really a scam, everyone would cheat thousands of dollars, which would be great?"
Lu Dong specially added: "The conditions in Qingzhao are not bad in rural areas. My family can earn two or three thousand yuan a year."
Fang Yan gently clamped the stone table with his fingers, not caring about the dust on it: "Lu Dong, this is not right! Take me to the company tomorrow."
Lu Dong quickly refused: "No, no, I have something to do, I want to sell things. What should I do if I show my face there, and I will be caught and paid? They are right next to the old book market, which is easy to find."
"As you said, so many people may be fooled. How many families can they save?" Fang Yan gradually grasped Lu Dong's characteristics: "If the scam is true and can be reported, I will apply for a heavy reward from the newspaper!"
Lu Dong wanted to ask how many heavy prizes were, but when he thought of the risks, he still endured it and said, "You are a big reporter, with a large energy and a wide range of people, and you will definitely not lack helpers. By the way, you can go to the market and buy an antique porcelain bowl and go to the appraisal."
He was about to withdraw and finally reminded: "Don't forget, this is the news clue I provided, there will be rewards for reporting it!"
Before going back, Lu Dong went to the Industrial and Commercial Bank near the East Outer Ring Road to open a card. The money sold today was saved in.
He also asked, there is an automatic teller machine in QuanN County, so withdrawing money is convenient.
