Chapter 57, Yin Man

As soon as he entered the door, he saw his father lying on the rocking chair smoking a pipe.

When Tang Jun saw his son come back covered in bruises, he could tell from his eyes that he cared about his son, but because Tang Zang never paid attention to him except for taking care of his food and lodging, he never even looked at him directly. In addition, he himself has difficulty speaking, even if he opens his mouth to care, Tang Zang may not pay attention to it, so he can only smoke dry cigarettes in silence without speaking.

Tang Zang walked into the kitchen that could only accommodate one person, turned on the faucet, and washed the scars on his face with clean water.

If you want to take a bath, you have to go to the public bath outside. Even if you go now, there is no water to take a bath, because the renter only turns on the water valve of the public bath between [-] and [-] in the evening.

dong dong dong,
There was a knock on the door,
Tang Zang turned off the faucet, went to open the door,
Standing in front of the door was a woman in pajamas with wavy hair and a cigarette dangling from her mouth.

Cigarettes here are not cheap. The last pack of cigarettes is enough to satisfy Tang Zang for three meals a day.

"Charter, what's the matter?"

The renter took out her notepad and tapped on it with a pen: "It's time to pay the rent today."

"Oh, I almost forgot, wait, I'll get you the rent."

Tang Zang turned around and walked to the bedside,

The bed was a bunk bed, Tang Jun was physically handicapped, so he slept on the bottom bunk, and Tang Zang slept on the top bunk.

Reaching out to open the bamboo mat on the upper bunk, he put the rent under it.

But when he opened the bamboo mat, he didn't see his money. He quickly opened the bamboo mat, but still didn't see his money.

He looked down at Tang Jun who was still smoking a pipe. He knew that Tang Jun had taken his money, so he didn't yell or ask him for money.

Instead, he put on a smile, walked to the door, nodded and bowed his head: "I'm sorry for the renter, um...can you tolerate the rent for a few days? I really don't have any money right now."

The renter looked Tang Zang up and down, and put away the notepad: "If it weren't for the fact that you pay the rent on time every month, I would drive you away right now. I'll give you five days, and if you don't have any money after five days, give it to me." Pack your things and get out."

The charter woman will not refuse to charge Tang Zang's rent just because Tang Zang is poor. There are more poor people than Tang Zang. If there are a lot of slums caught, is it possible that they don't want rent?Let them live in vain?To help the poor, who will help her?
Watching the renter leave, Tang Zang put away his smile, he felt so tired, life was so tiring, he didn't want to live anymore, but every time he committed suicide, he was discouraged, he gritted his teeth and insisted on living tomorrow.

After tidying up his things and changing a set of clothes, Tang Zang went out to work.

Tang Jun watched Tang Zang leave. He deliberately took away the money under the bamboo mat. He would rather his son yell at him and scold him than see his son ignore him.

Tang Jun put down his pipe, got up, limped to the side of the bed, squatted down, stretched out his hand and took out a chamber pot from under the bed, took out a few coins from his pocket, stuffed them into the chamber pot, and put the chamber pot Put it back under the bed.

He knows that his son is not easy to earn money, every time he steals money from Tang Zang, he stuffs it into this chamber pot, and never spends a penny, even the dry tobacco he smokes is taken to the street to pick up other people's unfinished cigarettes , Collect them, take them home and smoke slowly.

There were still Tang Jun's retired King Kong at the beginning, but after another war broke out and the national treasury was tight, he never received a pension.

on the pier...

Tang Zang carried dozens of kilograms of rice on his shoulders and moved it from the boat to the warehouse on land.

This year, he is only 19 years old, and 19 years old is in the prime of his youth. He should be silent in the ocean of knowledge, instead of standing in the sun, sweating, and doing physical work, but he can’t stop doing it. Without money, there is no place to live, no food to eat.

Tang Zang was wearing a vest, and the scars on his body were shocking. Sweat ran across the wound. It was an unbearable pain. Even if the pain was unbearable, he had to persevere.

He often works in the sun, his skin is tanned, and his young face has long lost the childishness that this age group should have.

The wages are one yuan and fifty cents a day, and the rent is ten yuan. He can only work for a few days first, and then find someone to borrow some more.

There is no shortage of people working at the docks here.The owners here often only choose young people like Tang Zang to work, because it is difficult for older people to last a day.And young people like Tang Zang can kill a bunch of them by throwing a few stones at will.

There is only a 15-minute break at noon. Lunch is a bowl of porridge and two steamed buns. This is the lunch given to them by the boss. After eating, they must continue to work.

Tang Zang took two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge, sat down in a shady place, drank the porridge, and gnawed on the steamed buns.

"Oh, it's time to eat again."

A young man about the same age as Tang Zang sat next to Tang Zang.

He is a friend Tang Zang met here. His name is One Two Three. Everyone usually calls him Ah San. Ah San’s parents died early, leaving him and his younger brother to depend on each other. His parents didn’t give him a name, so they kept calling him Ah San. , So he named himself "One Two Three" which is simple and easy to remember.

"Tang Zang, do me a favor."

Ah San ate two mouthfuls of steamed buns, almost swallowed them, and quickly drank two mouthfuls of porridge.

Tang Zang: "Let's talk. As long as it's not about money, I'll do my best."

Ah San smiled and said, "Yes, Tang Zang, you can speak idioms, did you eavesdrop on Mr.'s class?"

Tang Zang was also taken aback, scratching his head, when will I know idioms?I don't seem to have learned it?

"Let's get down to business." Ah San took another sip of porridge and said, "Help Yin alone tonight. I've already found more than a dozen people. If you are willing to help, don't rush home before finishing work tonight."

Tang Zang thought for a while, he was just a sinister person, and it wasn't a group fight, so he shouldn't be beaten, so he nodded in agreement.

"Okay, I'll help you."

"Thank you, steamed buns for you to eat."

Ah San said thank you, put the remaining steamed bun into Tang Zang's hands, and got up to find the next person.

Naturally, Tang Zang would not refuse the steamed buns that Ah San brought over. To be honest, two steamed buns and a bowl of porridge were only enough for him to eat half full.

Continue to work after eating.

sunset,

The dock owner pays the workers wages,

Salaries are paid daily.

Tang Zang took today's wages, one yuan and fifty cents, and bits and pieces of coins. After a hard day, he finally showed a smile.

Hard-earned money will make people cherish it even more.

Put the money in your trouser pocket,
Ah San brought over a dozen people: "Tang Zang, let's go."

"Ah."

Tang Zang responded and followed behind the team of more than a dozen people.

Night came,

The street lights on the side of the road are flickering, and maybe they will not light up in the next moment.

Ah San led the crowd to squat in a dark alley with no lights. Ah San still held a big sack in his hand, which was big enough to fit an adult.

Their common insidious method is to trap people in sacks in dark alleys, and then punch and kick them.It can not only beat the person, but also prevent the victim from seeing who did it.
