552. Chapter 552 Dark City
"Okay, you go and clean up first!" Lin Dade waved his hand and said, "I have to take them to find the landlord first. They will also stay here for two days."
"Oh, come and sit down later." The woman took the vegetables and ran into the kitchen to clean up.
On this side, Lin Dade asked Ye Qing and Wang Laoba to follow him and first walked to a room next to him. A little girl of five or six years old sat at the door, with black black eyes, looking extremely cute. Unfortunately, she was too thin, and her face, which should have been round and round, was so thin that she fell into it. Her clothes were covered in mud, and her face was covered in mud, which looked like a little beggar, which made people feel sad.
Lin Dade bent down and squatted down, asking, "Dingding, how is mom today?"
"It still hurts." The girl replied in a low voice.
"Oh, just tell her to see a doctor!" Lin Dade sighed and handed her the medicine in his hand, saying, "This is the medicine given to you by the uncle over there. Take it back and let your mother apply it. It will be fine soon!"
Ding Ding hesitated for a moment, reached out to take the medicine, looked at Lin Dade, then looked at Ye Qing, and suddenly bent down and bowed to Ye Qing. His polite look made Ye Qing feel sad, and even Wang Laoba sighed faintly.
Ding Ding took the medicine back to the room, and Lin Dade took Ye Qing and Wang Laoba to find the landlord, sighing all the way: "Hey, the child is really nice, polite, cute, and lovely. I really can't figure out what this father thinks, can you bear such a cute child? Now this person is really impossible to say!"
Renting a house goes smoothly and the price is very cheap. Of course, if you want to use other people's bedding or something, the price will be a little more expensive. However, these are not the key.
After taking the key, Ye Qing went to buy a bottle of white wine and took it to Lin Dade's house. Lin Dade's wife was cooking in the room. The smell of pork in the pot was pungent, and the three children were standing at the entrance of the kitchen, drooling. It seemed that they hadn't eaten meat for a while.
"Go and go, go out to play, why are you doing blocking the kitchen mouth?" Lin Dade drove out the three children, smiled awkwardly at Ye Qing and Wang Laoba, and said, "You don't mind the child is ignorant. Come on, come on, sit down quickly. This house is a bit messy, mainly with too many things."
The room that Lin Dade rented is really not big. There is a small room inside that is considered the bedroom of Lin Dade and his wife. There is a bed in the living room, which is probably the place where three children sleep. Next is a small dining table, which basically cannot put anything else in the room. The kitchen is also separated by wooden boards, which is extremely narrow.
However, even if it was such a simple room, Lin Dade and his family were having a good time here. Today, Lin Dade earned 500 yuan, which was a small income of half a month for him. He was in a very good mood. He sat in the living room and kept talking to Ye Qing and Wang Laoba about the scenery in Xishan City, and planned to take Ye Qing and Wang Laoba to see the scenery in the afternoon. This honest man, after collecting Ye Qing 500 yuan, he didn't want Ye Qing to spend the money in vain!
Ye Qing was not interested in these scenery and asked the guards several times, but Lin Dade was obviously very alert and did not want to say these things at all. Ye Qing could see that he could not ask in a short time, so he didn't ask more questions, just to attract Lin Dade to beware of them.
After sitting in the living room for half an hour, several dishes were served on the table. Lin Dade immediately invited Ye Qing and Wang Laoba to sit down at the table. The three children rushed in happily, but were rushed into the kitchen by Lin Dade. He treated Ye Qing and Wang Laoba as guests, so he did not allow the children to serve.
Seeing the three children looking at this place pitifully at the kitchen door, Ye Qing couldn't help but remember the way she sat in the kitchen and watched others eat when she was a child. She also felt a little emotional in her heart, saying, "Let my sister-in-law come and sit with the children!"
"I don't need it anymore, you can eat it!" Lin Dade's wife replied in the kitchen.
"Children, I can't eat anything when I go to the table, I just make trouble. Okay, don't worry about them, you can eat first!" Lin Dade warmly greeted Ye Qing and Wang Laoba, but Ye Qing finally insisted that everyone serve the table.
Lin Dade could not resist Ye Qing, so he could only let his wife and three children come over in the end. Of course, the three children were extremely excited, and they ate without hesitation when they were on the table. Lin Dade's wife was obviously a more virtuous person, and she smiled at Ye Qing and Wang Laoba awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
When Lin Dade introduced Ye Qing and Wang Laoba, especially when Ye Qing paid 500 yuan to buy his tricycle, Lin Dade's wife suddenly opened her eyes wide. This number also shocked her. No wonder Lin Dade came back after buying so many dishes today.
When Lin Dade's wife learned that her husband made a lot of money, she was even more enthusiastic and poured tea and water for Ye Qing and the others. This number is really not a small number for this family.
After lunch, Lin Dade and Ye Qing and Wang Laoba chatted in the living room. Lin Dade's wife finished packing the kitchen and walked to Lin Dade, and wanted to speak but stopped. After hesitating for a while, she whispered: "Lao Lin, we owe Brother Hei's money, why don't we give it to me today? Or, he should cause trouble for you tomorrow!"
When Lin Dade heard the words "Hei Ge", his face was obviously a little angry, but he still took a hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to his wife, spitting: "This group of bastards will bully us poor people, and they didn't see them asking those rich for money!"
"Okay, don't say it anymore, disaster comes from the mouth!" Lin Dade's wife took the money, smiled awkwardly at Ye Qing and Wang Laoba, and hurriedly took the money out.
"What's going on?" Wang Laoba looked at Lin Dade in surprise and said, "Why are there anyone bullying you?"
"Oh, it's not a big deal." Lin Dade sighed and said with anger: "That Hei Brother is the leader of a gangster here. We who are riding tricycles have to pay him regularly every month. If you don't pay, don't think about attracting customers on the street again."
"There is something like this?" Ye Qing frowned and said, "This Black Brother is too unreasonable. This is obviously a protection fee. Why don't you call the police?"
Lin Dade waved his hand and said, "It's useless to find the police in this kind of thing!"
"Why?" Ye Qingqi said, there are no such despicable gangsters in Shunkawa City. Why does the public security in Xishan City seem to be much worse than that in Shunkawa City?
"Brother Ye, let me tell you this." Lin Dade sighed and said, "I used to be a human-power tricycle. It was really not easy for us to make some money. But even so, some gangsters still asked us to collect so-called protection fees. We are all hardworking, and there are many people. We are united together, and of course we will not be bullied by these people. Who knows that after we had a fight with those gangsters, the police immediately arrested several of us, all of whom were locked up for a while, and they had to pay the medical expenses of those gangsters. Just like us, no one is not a senior or a subordinate who has been locked up for a while, how can our family live? So, we didn't dare to fight against those gangsters. After a while, paying protection fees every month has become a rule. Just me, I have to pay 100 yuan a month!"
"Actually, if the police really want to care about these matters, how dare those gangsters provoke us? That time we fought with those gangsters, and several of us were injured. However, in the end, we were all the coachmen who were arrested, and those who were also the coachmen who lost money were also us. In this case, what's the use of calling the police?" At this point, Lin Dade paused for a moment and whispered: "And I also heard about it. The leader of those gangsters is the nephew of a deputy director of the Municipal Police Bureau. They have backgrounds, so we fight with them, so that we are asking for trouble."
"There is something like this?" Ye Qing frowned. If this is the case, it would involve a serious problem of raising bandits!
"Hehehe" Wang Laoba sneered and said, "Good and evil will be rewarded in the end. These police officers will eventually be punished with evil in the end!"
"What does it mean?" Lin Dade looked at Wang Laoba in surprise, looking confused.
"He's talking nonsense." Ye Qing replied in a hurry.
Lin Dade looked at Ye Qing suspiciously and said strangely: "Brother Ye, you seem to be very interested in the affairs of the police here?"
Ye Qing smiled and said, "You don't know. When I entered Xishan City today, I was extorted at the expressway entrance. There were police involved at that time, so I was wondering what happened to the police department of Xishan City!"
Lin Dade said: "Is someone riding a tricycle hitting your car?"
Ye Qing was shocked: "How do you know?"
Lin Dade said: "This happens often, and many people from other places are blackmailed like this. Most people dare not call the police because they are afraid that the matter will be a big deal and go to jail. Later, some people called the police, but in the end they were left alone."
Ye Qing frowned. If it was really as Lin Dade said, then the police department of Xishan City would have been completely corrupt.
"By the way, where is your car?" Lin Dade said strangely.
Wang Laoba said: "Don't mention it, I don't know what's going on. The license plate is blocked by the sludge. I'm still in the traffic police team. People ask us to pick up the car in the afternoon!"
"Oh, this is a big deal!" Lin Dade shook his head and said, "If this car enters the traffic police team, it is not enough to think of it if there are only two or three thousand."
"You are quite familiar with these things?" Ye Qingqi said.
"Oh, these are common things." Lin Dade said: "Brother Ye, if you come here from other places, three out of ten will encounter such things. The license plates are blocked by the sludge. In fact, when those people stop the car, they will quietly apply the sludge to you and then detain the car. Once you enter the traffic police team, you have to spend money. If you don't spend money, don't even think about picking up the car!"
