The life of a villain in a courtyard

There were many vendors in the black market. They put the things they wanted to sell in front of them. Su Yun took a look and found that the most popular ones were those selling grain and meat. The stalls were crowded with people.

"Boss, how much is this coal?"

Su Yun came to a stall selling daily necessities and pointed at the pile of coal behind him and asked.

"With a ticket, it's one yuan per 40 kilograms. Without a ticket, it's one yuan and twenty yuan per kilograms. There's an extra fifty cents for door-to-door delivery." (The idiot author learned from Baidu that the price of coal in the s supply and marketing cooperatives was twenty-two cents per kilograms.)

Su Yun took a look at the coal and found that it was of good quality. It was all in lumps, unlike the coal slag given by the supply and marketing cooperative, which required him to go back and work hard to make coal balls.

"Boss, how many pounds are there in this pile?"

"A total of 500 kilograms"

"I want it all."

After instructing the boss to load the coal onto a truck and wait for him outside, Su Yun began looking for the second coal seller. He burned about three to four thousand kilograms of wood a year in the rural area of ​​Northeast China, and he was afraid that the mere 500 kilograms would be burned up in less than a month.

As for whether the boss would run away with the money, there was no need to worry at all. According to Sha Zhu, there were some big brothers behind all the black markets in the city, and the black market he came from was recognized to have a good reputation. If the boss ran away, the people in the black market would naturally give him an explanation.

Su Yun inadvertently caught a glimpse of a familiar figure. Upon closer inspection, he saw that it was Lou Xiao'e. At this moment, she was asking the price in front of a stall selling fine grains.

Lou Xiao'e used to be the eldest daughter, while Xu Damao was spoiled by his family. Both of them were not used to eating cornmeal, so they often went to the black market to buy some fine grains. In the past, Xu Damao was the one who did this, but now he is lying in the hospital recovering from his injuries, so this task fell on Lou Xiao'e.

After agreeing on the price, Lou Xiao'e took out a stack of money from her pocket and counted it out to the boss one by one. Little did she know that her action alarmed the Buddhas in the black market. The so-called Buddhas are actually thieves. As for why they are called Buddhas, it is said that it means a breeze blowing on your face. To put it bluntly, this group of shameless thieves steal things and still brag about their good skills.

The two monks looked at each other and then approached Lou Xiao'e while asking prices in front of each stall. However, Lou Xiao'e's attention was all on the bag of grain and she didn't notice that she was being stared at by several strangers.

Just as Lou Xiao'e put the money back into his pocket and was about to leave after carrying the food, a Buddhist monk found the right opportunity and bumped into him from the side.

"I'm sorry, comrade. I wasn't paying attention. I'm so sorry."

Seeing that the other party was apologizing sincerely, Lou Xiao'e didn't bother with him and turned to leave. At this moment, Su Yun ran over and grabbed the man who bumped into Lou Xiao'e. He saw it clearly from the side. This Buddhist reached out and stole the money that Lou Xiao'e had just put in her pocket.

"Why are you arresting me?"

The captured Buddha struggled hard to break free from Su Yun's hands, and the other Buddha, seeing that the situation was not good, took out a knife from his pocket and tried to threaten Su Yun to let go. Su Yun put the person in front of him to prevent the other party's knife from hurting himself. The noise here soon attracted several strong men who were watching the black market.

"Little brother, why are you holding on to him?"

"This guy is a thief. I just saw him stealing money from this female comrade's pocket."

Su Yun reached into his pocket and took out the money.

Lou Xiao'e was startled and quickly reached into her pocket, and sure enough, the money was gone.

"Where's my money? My money is gone."

Upon hearing this, several big men turned their eyes to the two Buddha masters. Their boss was the founder of this black market, and they were specifically told before coming here to check out the place that if they met these Buddha masters here, they should beat them one by one without holding back. If they let them ruin the reputation of this place, no one would be willing to come here to buy things anymore.

As a result, the two Buddhas were taught a lesson by several people, and even their hands for stealing were broken. It is estimated that they will not be able to steal again for a few months.

After teaching the thief a lesson, the big men returned all the money that Lou Xiaoe had lost and then left.

"Thank you so much, little brother. If it weren't for you, my money would have been stolen."

Lou Xiao'e's face was full of gratitude. Su Yun just nodded to her without saying anything and continued to look for a stall selling coal.

Su Yun still had things to buy. After going around the black market for a few times, Su Yun gradually purchased more than a thousand kilograms of coal, and then asked these bosses to send the things together to the first store. Just when he was about to pay the bill and leave, the big man stopped Su Yun.

"What's up?"

"We have no ill intentions towards you, little brother. It's just that our boss wants to meet you."

Seeing that the other party did not seem to want to cause trouble for him, Su Yun followed him to a yard in the black market. At that moment, there was a middle-aged man in his forties sitting in the yard drinking tea.

"Third brother, the people are here."

"Little brother, please take a seat."

Su Yun sat down and the two exchanged a few words and got to know each other. The middle-aged man's surname was Wang. He was the third child in the family so everyone called him the Third Brother.

"I wonder if you'd be interested in coming here and helping me look after the market?"

When the other party heard that Su Yun had captured two monks in his black market, he became interested in him and wanted to recruit him. However, Su Yun told the other party that he was a factory worker. After hearing this, the other party gave up the idea because the formal workers in the factory would not be willing to work for them.

Su Yun came out of the black market and saw the boss waiting for him on the road on a tricycle. Su Yun took the boss to the back door of the courtyard and unloaded the coal. After the boss left, he put all the things in the space. If so much coal was left outside, it would definitely be secretly taken away by those who like to take advantage of small bargains, such as the Third Uncle, and he didn't want to be the scapegoat.

When Su Yun returned to the courtyard, he was stopped by Lou Xiao'e who was holding a basin.

"You didn't just..."

Su Yun raised a finger to signal her not to say anything. After all, they were in the black market, so it was better to say less. Lou Xiao'e also reacted and pulled Su Yun aside and lowered her voice.

"Why are you here?"

Su Yun felt speechless. Why was she speaking in a low voice again? No wonder Sha Zhu called Lou Xiao'e "Sha'e". She really didn't seem very smart.

"I live here. Look, that's my house."

"You must be Su Yun. My name is Lou Xiao'e and I live next door to you."

Lou Xiao'e was slightly excited.

"You are Damao's wife."

Lou Xiao'e's face changed when she heard Xu Damao's name, and Su Yun noticed it. He was very curious: "Sister Xiao'e, what happened to Brother Damao?"

Su Yun had just arrived in the courtyard and didn't know anyone, so no one shared what happened yesterday with him. Lou Xiao'e told Su Yun what Xu Damao had done yesterday. Su Yun silently gave Xu Damao a thumbs up, saying that he was indeed the most famous villain in the courtyard and what he did was really immoral.
