Chapter 272 Who Will Play the Hero? This is forcing me, Zhao Ruilong, to take action!
"What?"
"What are you going to do?"
Zhao Xia rushed forward.
He raised his right hand, which was holding the sesame seed cake, and pointed at the two men who wanted to fine Cai Xiaolin two hundred yuan.
This sudden scene stunned Zhong Xiaoai and caught Zhao Ruilong somewhat off guard.
A multitude of thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant.
"Could she be planning to stand up for justice and fight crime?"
"Given that she was spoiled by Zhao Lidong and his wife since childhood, it's quite possible!"
Regardless, Zhao Ruilong quickly stepped forward.
No matter what, she's still my sister, and I brought her to Handong.
"Who are you?"
The man, who was about to issue the ticket, turned his head and asked.
Who do you think I am?!
Zhao Xialing glared and angrily said, "What right do you have to fine him?"
"Because street vending is not allowed on this street; the city has clearly stipulated it!"
Zhao Xialing then asked loudly, "Does every regulation require a fine? Isn't it said that Handong values its business environment, doesn't impose heavy penalties for minor offenses, and enforces the law humanely?"
The man gave a bitter smile.
“We’ve caught him many times and warned him many times, but he just won’t listen. Every time he says he won’t come, but he comes back the next day. If we don’t really take fining him, the merchants will start to complain.”
Another man pointed to the surrounding shops along the street.
"All the businesses on this street have spent a lot of money to rent shops and pay sanitation management fees."
"In order not to affect the tourist experience and pedestrian traffic, they also abide by the regulations and do not set up their stalls beyond the yellow line."
"And this old man, he doesn't pay a single cent for the stall fee, nor a single cent for sanitation, he just pushes a tricycle around and hawks his wares."
"He not only affects the traffic on this pedestrian street, but also the appearance of the city, and even everyone's business. How can he not be punished?"
“If we don’t impose fines, the merchants will definitely complain. They’ll all stop renting shops and start setting up stalls everywhere. Wouldn’t this street turn into a complete mess?”
The two men spoke with reason and conviction.
Moreover, at this time, merchants quickly expressed their support and cheered.
Everyone is just trying to make a living, so why should itinerant vendors be allowed to exist?
"sorry Sorry!"
"I was wrong. I swear to God, I really won't come again."
Cai Xiaolin, kneeling on the ground, was in tears, his face full of pleading.
His son, Cai Chenggong, whose Dafeng Factory went bankrupt, was detained in Linjiang Province awaiting trial for bribery.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't afford a stall and wanted to earn more money to make a living, Cai Xiaolin wouldn't have wanted to risk being discovered and fined to become a mobile vendor on this busy food street.
"Even if a fine is due, it shouldn't be this much!"
"He might sell pancakes for several days and still not earn two hundred yuan!"
Seeing Zhao Ruilong approach, Zhao Xialing felt even more confident.
"If you ask me, considering how pitiful he is, a fine of twenty yuan will suffice."
"But if he dares to come again tomorrow, I wouldn't mind if he were fined two hundred, or even five hundred!"
"No, it has to be at least fifty!"
"Then fifty it is! I'll pay for him!"
Zhao Xialing's voice was clear and loud.
His decisive action of taking out the money was so elegant and composed.
"I can't do it, I can't do it!"
"I should pay for this myself."
Cai Xiaolin quickly got up.
He hunched over, rummaging through a small box containing loose change, searching for five or ten yuan notes.
"Uncle, don't bother looking anymore, we'll pay for it for you!"
Zhong Xiaoai took two steps forward and pressed down on Cai Xiaolin's hand.
“However, pushing your tricycle around the street and hawking your wares isn’t a long-term solution. I’ll help you rent a stall on this street. Consider it a loan from me, and you can pay me back when you’ve made some money in the future.”
Cai Xiaolin paused for a moment, then looked up and turned to the side.
"Really? But... but the stall fees here aren't cheap!"
"The minimum lease term is six months, and you need to pay a deposit of two months' rent and six months' rent in advance. Including sanitation and management fees, it will cost about ten thousand dollars!"
Upon hearing the words "ten thousand yuan," Zhong Xiaoai's expression froze.
Although she is currently in the "working to pay off debts" stage, she can still grit her teeth and give a few thousand yuan.
However, ten thousand yuan...
How could she possibly afford that?
When I had power and influence, I didn't care about money at all; I thought it was just something external.
After her family fell on hard times and her business failed, she realized that money is a wonderful thing, but making money is also really not easy.
Zhao Xialing, who had been showing off, was also immediately embarrassed and stunned.
Having just graduated from university, she naturally had a few hundred yuan of pocket money, but she couldn't come up with ten thousand yuan.
"Take it, this stack should be exactly ten thousand!"
Zhao Ruilong handed Zhong Xiaoai a new 10,000 yuan note that was still wrapped in paper money.
Before Zhong Xiaoai could express her gratitude with tears in her eyes, Zhao Ruilong said unhurriedly:
"Here you go! Remember to pay me back when you get your bonus!"
"it is good!"
Zhong Xiaoai agreed without hesitation.
Zhao Xialing, on the other hand, seemed a bit confused.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Zhao Xialing stared wide-eyed and asked.
"what happened?"
Zhao Ruilong countered with a question.
"What else happened?"
Zhao Xialing grabbed Zhao Ruilong's hand and walked a few steps away.
"Ten thousand yuan is indeed a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but for you, Brother Long, it's just a drop in the ocean, right?"
"and then?"
Zhao Ruilong asked again with a half-smile.
He had a pretty good idea of what Zhao Xialing wanted to say.
Zhao Xialing took a big bite of the pancake and looked at Zhao Ruilong as if he were an idiot.
After chewing several times, he gestured towards Zhong Xiaoai, who was chatting with Cai Xiaolin.
"Can't you be a little more generous in front of such a beautiful woman?"
"Why don't you just take out ten thousand yuan openly and show your gentlemanly manners?"
Zhao Ruilong chuckled.
"I am rich, but I am not sick."
Zhao Xialing took half a step forward and poked Zhao Ruilong's stomach.
"Don't try to act all serious with me!"
"If you only have Lu Yike as your girlfriend, I have no problem with being stingy."
"But you're such a womanizer, can't you be nicer to Sister Xiao Ai?"
"Maybe she'll be so moved that she'll divorce Hou Liangping and follow you wholeheartedly from now on!"
Zhao Ruilong raised his hand and poked Zhao Xialing's head.
"What the hell is going on in your head?"
"I simply hired her as an employee, not to groom her as a potential lover."
"Really?"
Zhao Xialing asked with a mischievous grin:
"Don't you also inherit Prime Minister Cao's will to love another man's wife?"
"Don't you think that Sister Ai is graceful, charming, and adorable?"
"Go away, don't talk nonsense!"
Zhao Ruilong grabbed Zhao Xialing's right hand and stuffed the sesame seed cake into her mouth.
not far away.
When many people gathered to watch the spectacle.
A tall, thin man kept observing the backpack that Zhao Ruilong was carrying on his left shoulder with one hand.
He saw Zhao Ruilong take out 10,000 yuan from his bag just now.
There were also several stacks of brand-new 100-yuan bills in the bag.
And it seems there are laptops too.
If we could steal this bag, it would be more worthwhile than stealing dozens of wallets.
but……
It's really not a good time to make a move in this bustling commercial pedestrian street.
There are too many people, and it's difficult to escape quickly after you've grabbed something.
And just now, two urban management officers strolled over leisurely.
After observing the surroundings, the tall, thin man gave his companion a wink.
Next, the two of them kept a watchful eye on Zhao Ruilong and his two companions, keeping a distance from each other.
They firmly believe that no matter how much someone loves shopping, they can't shop forever without ever leaving.
After they've eaten and drunk their fill and are tired from walking around, the three of them will definitely leave this street.
really.
They followed and stalked him for less than an hour.
The chubby girl with baby fat clutched her stomach and said she couldn't eat anymore.
After seeing Zhao Ruilong take out his phone and make a call, the three of them walked out chatting and laughing.
After exiting the pedestrian street, the three stood by the roadside waiting for a car.
Seeing Zhao Ruilong still carrying his bag on his left shoulder with one hand, the tall, thin man put on a hat and mask.
This is a signal to take action!
As he slowly approached, the tall, thin man mentally rehearsed the entire plan.
He grabbed the bag with his left hand and took out a switchblade with his right, pretending to swing it.
To avoid getting hurt, the other person will instinctively let go.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, one can grab the bag and dash across to the other side, hop on a companion's motorcycle, and speed away.
The plan was flawless.
Zhao Ruilong, carrying a bag, was chatting with two women.
Now or never!
The tall, thin man suddenly approached from the side and rear, and exerted force violently.
The sudden tug nearly caused Zhao Ruilong, who was caught off guard, to stumble.
There was a flash of white light.
The other person didn't manage to grab the bag, so they swung their knife and slashed at it.
Zhao Ruilong reacted quickly, instantly letting go to dodge.
But before the other party could escape, he strode forward and delivered a powerful punch.
I haven't used the top-tier fighting skill that the system rewarded me with in a long time.
Now that the opportunity to unleash its power has finally arrived, it's time for a swift and devastating attack.
Zhao Xialing and Zhong Xiaoai were unaware of what had happened.
They heard the cracking sound of bones breaking and pitiful screams. Turning around, they saw Zhao Ruilong punching and kicking someone.
However, upon closer inspection...
The other person, who had fallen to the ground, was still holding Zhao Ruilong's backpack with one hand and a switchblade in the other.
"My God, he snatched my bag!"
Zhao Xialing is not stupid.
My father, Zhao Lidong, served as a clerk at the Jinghai Political and Legal Affairs Bureau for many years.
So of course she knew that armed robbery in the street was nothing new.
Bag snatching, phone snatching, earring snatching...
These robbers don't care about the number of people or whether it's day or night.
They are so fast and ruthless that cases often occur suddenly.
A case once occurred in Jinghai.
A woman was having her bag snatched by a motorcycle gang as she was withdrawing money from the bank.
She held onto her bag tightly and refused to let go, so the other party slashed and stabbed her repeatedly.
In just a few seconds, she collapsed in a pool of blood, and the money she had just withdrawn, along with her bag, was stolen.
Because the incident occurred in front of a bank, and the woman slit her own carotid artery on the spot, she quickly died.
The case caused considerable negative impact, and the father personally took charge as the head of the special task force, spending nearly half a year investigating the case.
So for now.
Seeing the tall, thin man who had been brutally beaten by Zhao Ruilong, he was seen clutching his bag in one hand and holding a knife in the other.
