The weather was a bit annoying, the sun only came out yesterday, and it rained again early this morning.

I haven't been to Lao Fu Ji to eat noodles for a few days, don't say it, I really think about it.

As soon as I went out, I called a rickshaw: "Old Fu Ji." ”

"Okay, boss, sit down."

The rickshaw driver happily pulled the car and ran.

The drizzle continued to fall on the rickshaw driver, but it couldn't stop him in the slightest.

"Why do you come out on a rainy day to run business?"

Meng Shaoyuan sat in the car and asked.

"Ouch, boss, Nong is really good at laughing." The rickshaw driver said while pulling the car: "We are born to work hard, pull the car for a day, pay the driver's fee, license fee, violation fine, and the rest is just enough for the family to eat, and there is not a penny left." If you don't run for a day, you'll have to go hungry for a day. I can afford to be hungry, but my wife and children at home can't afford to go hungry. ”

Meng Shaoyuan was a little curious: "How much do you have to pay this month?" ”

"If you have a license like me, you have to pay 25 silver dollars a month, plus the license fee and fines, this is a month, and you will get seven or eight silver dollars."

"That's just barely enough to eat." Meng Shaoyuan was very sympathetic.

"Originally, it was hard to be hard, but now it is difficult to do business, there are more than 50,000 rickshaws in Shanghai, and there are more cars and fewer people in the car. Later, with cars and trams, business became even more difficult. Also, Shanghai's largest car dealership, Xiangsheng car dealership has done even better, opened a taxi phone, 4000, which means '40,000 compatriots want a car, please call the 40,000 number', this is good, a phone call from the rich people, rickshaw directly to the door of the house waiting, like those of us who pull business on the road, where to compete with the people? ”

This Xiangsheng company has brains and ideas that are ahead of this era!

In Meng Shaoyuan's era, a phone call, didn't a taxi pick you up directly at your door?

Think about your own era, what kind of phone call for a car, software for a car, are all leftovers of people in this era.

Listen to this slogan again:

"If 40,000 compatriots want a car, please call the 40,000 number!"

Absolutely!

People will remember it as soon as they hear it, but it is much stronger than "giving gifts and giving gifts for the New Year this year"!

There are taxis, but they are too expensive.

The cost of a taxi is basically four to five yuan per hour, which ordinary people can't afford at all, while rickshaws are only four dimes an hour, and the price is still advantageous in comparison.

In addition, although there are taxi companies in Shanghai, there are too few vehicles.

A brand-new Ford car costs 12,000 yuan in Shanghai, while the mayor's monthly salary is less than 200 yuan.

It's a pity that although rickshaws are still competitive, they can only barely survive by pulling carts.

The car owner and license fee are recognized, but the fine for this patrol is really unbearable.

To be precise, it's not called a fine, it's just an excuse to blackmail your money.

Don't give? The car is confiscated, let the owner of the car dealership take the money to the patrol room to get it.

In the end, is it still the rickshaw driver who is unlucky?

"Hey, hey, stop."

While chatting there, two patrols rushed out of the teahouse on the side, and despite the rain, they stopped the rickshaw.

"Boss, what's the matter?" The rickshaw driver asked respectfully.

"Fine!" The lead patrol was expressionless.

"Why?" The rickshaw driver looked aggrieved.

"Why? What day is it today? ”

"It's raining."

"Soliciting on a rainy day is extremely dangerous, and you will be punished for the crime of dangerous cart pulling!"

Meng Shaoyuan almost erupted when he heard this.

Dangerous Cart?

Have you ever heard of this crime since ancient times?

"Boss, no, master, you are my own father." The rickshaw driver begged again and again: "I just started my first business today, and I don't have a dime in my pocket, so I lied to you that I am my grandson." ”

It's so early, and it's raining, and this patrol is not believing.

If you don't have money in your pocket like this, you can patrol and arrest them.

A patrolman went around the back of the car and took off the license plate of the rickshaw: "Dangerous driving, a fine of three yuan, come here to get the money, our brothers are here all morning." It's late, but I'm going to go to the patrol room to get it. ”

The rickshaw driver has the heart to die.

Three dollars, how many guests are there? Today's day is not only in vain, but on this rainy day, whether the car can make up the money is all mysterious.

But the guests are still in the car.

The rickshaw driver sighed and barely bred up his spirits to pull the guest to his destination.

Meng Shaoyuan got out of the car, took out a piece of ocean and put it in the hands of the rickshaw driver.

"Boss, I can't find it."

"No need to look for it."

"Huh?"

A big ocean, the rickshaw driver wondered if he was dazzled.

"Take it back and give my wife and children something good." Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "By the way, tomorrow at 9 o'clock in the morning, look for me at No. 892 Yaerpei Road, and I will use your car." ”

"Hey, hey, okay, boss, thank you, I'll be there on time tomorrow."

The rickshaw driver's tears were about to fall, and he pulled the car away with a thousand thanks.

Meng Shaoyuan saw at a glance that the old beggar was sitting at the door of the old Fu Ji noodle restaurant, where the eaves could barely shelter from the rain.

Poor thing.

In this bad weather, they have to come out to beg for food.

Meng Shaoyuan sighed.

After eating in a while, let the guy give him a bowl of noodles.

Just as he was about to go in, the old beggar suddenly said, "Boss, it's okay, let's get something to eat." ”

Well?

In Meng Shaoyuan's impression, the old beggar never asked someone to take the initiative to ask for food?

He was stunned and stopped.

The old beggar suddenly said, "Hurry up, someone inside is going to kill you!" ”

What the?

Meng Shaoyuan didn't have time to think about it, and was about to leave immediately, but suddenly, "bang" twice.

It was about a rainy day, which affected the killer's vision, and both shots were missed.

Meng Shaoyuan pounced to the side and took out his gun.

However, the killer on the other side of the street had already prepared, and the bullets kept sweeping towards here.

In the noodle shop, four killers kicked over the table and rushed out towards the store's door.

Meng Shaoyuan is going to be finished!

……

Iji Diving Grass rushed to the first.

Killing Meng Shaoyuan is the first merit of the Imperial Shanghai Agent!

As soon as he stepped out of the door of the store with one foot, he saw a figure suddenly pounce on him.

Ichi's heart hurts.

A sharp knife pierced his heart.

Old beggar!

"Run!"

The old beggar roared.

Taking advantage of the killer's stunned kung fu, Meng Shaoyuan rolled a few times, turned to a corner, covered in mud and water, embarrassed, but he couldn't care about it, and shot a shot with his backhand without purpose, rolling and crawling, stumbling!

……

"Bang bang"!

The bullet hit the old beggar, and the old beggar fell to the ground.

The killer didn't care about Yiji Qiancao and the old beggar, and frantically chased after Meng Shaoyuan where he fled.

The old beggar had two bloody holes in his body.

His eyes widened, and he muttered:

"I'm not a dog, I'm not a dog!"

……

Meng Shaoyuan ran forward frantically.

Several killers chased after him in a frenzy.

Bullets kept flying by.

Meng Shaoyuan wanted to flee for his life while beware of bullets, and his speed slowed down greatly.

And the killer behind him has no concerns about this at all.

If it goes on like this, Meng Shaoyuan will soon be caught up by the other party!

Finished.

It's really going to be over this time.

"Sir, quick!"

A rickshaw burst out.

Meng Shaoyuan didn't think about the time at all, and suddenly jumped onto the rickshaw.

A few bullets hit the rickshaw.

The rickshaw driver didn't care at all, pulling the rickshaw was all the way.

According to the understanding of ordinary people, pulling a rickshaw with a person sitting in the car will definitely not be able to outrun the pursuers, but the actual situation is definitely not the case.

Rickshaw drivers pull cars all year round, and they have a nickname called "mud feet", even if they pull a rickshaw with people sitting on it, ordinary people will not be able to catch up with them for a while.

And the most important thing is that they know the road well.

The streets and alleys of Shanghai, those horns and bumps that you have never heard of before, they are just as familiar to their hearts.

I saw the rickshaw driver turn left, then ran for about ten meters, and then made a sharp right turn.

It's like driving a car and playing drifting.

With just these two actions, it didn't take much time to throw off the pursuers.

The rickshaw driver did not dare to slack off, and continued to pull the rickshaw to look for alleys.

At least half an hour, the rickshaw driver stopped, and he didn't breathe: "Boss, where are you going?" ”

Meng Shaoyuan was shocked: "Alpei Road, No. 892." ”

finally saw clearly, it was the rickshaw driver who pulled himself just now.

"Hey, hey." The rickshaw driver continued to pull up the car, not afraid at all: "I was going there tomorrow, but I didn't expect to pull the boss today." ”

Meng Shaoyuan couldn't help but ask, "How did you appear there?" ”

"I watched the rain fall heavily, and the boss gave me another ocean, I thought, today's money is enough, hide from the rain, and wait for the rain to light up and then solicit customers, but I heard gunshots. I was scared, I wanted to run, but when I saw that it was the boss who was being hunted and killed, I thought, boss, you are a good person, I have to save you. ”

You are a good man, and I save you.

It's that simple reason.

Meng Shaoyuan asked again: "You're not afraid?" ”

"Afraid? Unafraid! The rickshaw driver didn't care at all: "Back then, the Axe Gang cut people in Shanghai, hundreds of people, flesh and blood, I took care of the business, I remembered, pulled several injured people, went to the doctor, I saw a lot of this meeting." ”

Cheng, Cheng.

never thought that it was such two little people who saved themselves today.

"Boss, it's here."

The rickshaw stopped at 892 Albei Road.

As soon as he saw that the guest was going to pay for it, the rickshaw driver hurriedly said: "No need, boss, you have given me an ocean." ”

"That's it." Meng Shaoyuan was not stubborn: "Remember to come to me tomorrow." ”

……

"What's wrong with you?"

Seeing Meng Shaoyuan's appearance, Wu Jingyi was taken aback.

"Hunted down."

"What? Are you okay? ”

"I was originally dead, but I was saved by a bowl of noodles and an ocean."

Wu Jingyi was confused.

A bowl of noodles and an ocean?

What do you mean?

Meng Shaoyuan didn't explain much: "You immediately send someone to Lao Fu Ji Noodle Restaurant to see if there is an old beggar there, if he is still alive, remember, you must save him at all costs!" ”
