The chief player of the film and television world

Chapter 14 Little Water
That night, Xiao Shui stayed in the house, which was where their father and daughter lived before, and she was more familiar with this house than Zhang Jin.

The next morning, Zhang Jin bought breakfast and came back. While eating, he learned about Ma Dexing's father and daughter. From Xiaoshui, he learned the whole story.

A few years ago, Ma Dexing was a clerk in an important town in the north. He had a happy family and a successful career.Later, in order to treat his wife's disease, he sold his property and borrowed money to travel to Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Guangzhou and other places to seek famous doctors, and finally came to Xiangjiang. He spent money to delay his relationship and let his wife be admitted to the British St. Mary's Hospital. In order to save money, his father The two girls rented into the Kowloon Walled City.

Ma Dexing took his daughter to visit his wife every day, and then his daughter stayed in the hospital, while he went out to work to earn money. After more than half a year, the savings he brought was still spent, and he had to borrow usury to treat his wife's illness. , but his wife's illness became more and more serious, and finally passed away half a month ago.

Later, the father and daughter were chased for debts and kicked out of the house by the renter. In desperation, it was worth agreeing to work for the loan shark and entrusting the daughter to Zhang Jin.

Xiaoshui told the story in a calm tone and concise words, but after listening to it, Zhang Jin felt inexplicable emotion in his heart.

Fate is really impermanent.

After breakfast, Xiao Shui took out a dilapidated textbook from his dilapidated satchel, sat at the table and read it quietly.

After Zhang Jin told her not to run around, she went out, went downstairs to find Uncle Gen and exchanged greetings for a while, before asking, "Uncle Gen, do you know that there is a loan shark called Sister Guili in the Walled City?"

"Sister Guili? You know, it's Zhu Meifeng! That woman is a famous black widow. She married three times and her husband died three times. In the end, she was forced to hide in the walled city and became a Loufeng. I don’t know where I got a large amount of money, and within two years it has become a famous usury in the city.” Uncle Gen said slowly, “Why are you asking this? Hey, you are now gambling with Master Luo to make money, aren’t you? For a large amount, ask Master Luo to borrow it first, don’t you need to find usury?”

Zhang Jin said: "No, I heard from Xiao Shui that Ma Dexing couldn't repay Sister Guili's debt, and Sister Guili asked him to help with something. You know that loan sharks must be troublesome and dangerous to pay off their debts. I want to help him. "

Uncle Gen shook his cattail fan and said, "You can't help with this. Sister Guili never asks debtors to help with things. If she does, she must find someone for others, and she won't know who is looking for Ma Dexing for this kind of thing." Doing things, because there must be a middleman, and the middleman must be a fellow Taoist. You know, fellow Taoist, it’s hard to find a place to live without a fixed place. You may not be able to find it even if Master Ding takes a shot, so save your effort. "

Hearing what Uncle Gen said, Zhang Jin felt a little helpless. It was too easy to conceal his identity when he came to Kowloon Walled City to do business. It seemed that he had to give up on helping.

Back in the room, Zhang Jin idly looked at Xiaoshui's textbook, which was a Chinese textbook for primary schools in mainland China. Seeing that she was reading it seriously, he couldn't help but asked with a smile, "Do you know all the characters on it?"

Xiao Shui raised his head and said, "Yes, I'm already 12 years old. I went to elementary school before, but I didn't go to school after that. My mother taught me at home. She used to be a teacher."

Zhang Jin asked, "Then do you still want to go to school?"

Xiao Shui didn't answer, but lowered his head and continued to read the textbook in his hand.

Zhang Jin sighed silently in his heart, this little girl is indeed very sensible.He opened the chair next to him and sat down, smiled and said: "I promised your father to take care of you, but I can't live in the Kowloon Walled City all the time. After I move out, I can find you a school to go to, so you can have something to do." Do, I don't have to take care of you every day. I'm very busy and I don't know how to take care of children."

Xiao Shui turned his head and said, "But my dad said that those of us who don't have a residence permit can't go to school."

"Don't forget that this is Xiangjiang, as long as you have money." After Zhang Jin finished speaking with a smile, he saw a gleam in the little girl's eyes.

Stayed in the house for a whole morning, and tidied up the house with Xiao Shui. At noon, Zhang Jin planned to take Xiao Shui out for dinner, and happened to meet Luo Hao who was ordered to bring money.

Inviting people into the house, Zhang Jin said: "I'm going to have lunch, let's go together."

"Okay, I punched all morning, and I was sent to give money, and I was drooling when I passed by the dog meat hot pot." Luo Hao was not polite, "This is a savings account of HSBC, and the dividends from last night have already been deposited into it. , and the dividends will be remitted regularly in the future.”

Zhang Jin took it and looked at it. There was only one line of numbers printed in ink. Last night, he took only [-]% of the dividend, which was [-] million.He knew it was because he swallowed the bets of those big bosses who wanted to kill the dealer. Even if he was willing to gamble and admit defeat, it was still a lot of money.

He asked, "How is Master Luo, do you want to help?"

Luo Hao recounted Luo Zhengying's meeting with Lord Ding last night, and then said: "My old man said that you don't have to worry about other things. If he can't handle it, it's useless for you to come. I hope you can do it in the next month." Take care of the arena, he said that the world is a matter of the world, if you lose in the arena, those who are not convinced can win back in the arena!"

Table and shrine, chicken and duck drinks, offerings of melons and fruits, censer with light smoke, and flags of various colors are hung on both sides. In the middle is an old red flag with yellow ears and four gold characters "Commander of the Three Armies" embroidered on it.

Lord Ding sat on the chief seat, put the teacup in his hand on the table next to him, glanced at the doll in front of him, and said: "Master Luo is right in saying that the world is about the world, and the ring is lost." Just win it back from the ring! If you don't have that ability, don't go out and embarrass me! You are the person in charge of the walled city, and you have a lot of things to do, so don't just stare there all day. Also, put Spread the word of my intention, and let those bigwigs with prefixes outside know, don’t even try to make trouble in our city!”

"Yes, uncle." The doll backed away with his head lowered, and the anger on his face could no longer be restrained when he turned around.

After lunch, Luo Hao invited Zhang Jin to the Lianghe Building, saying that he was looking for boxers for the betting ring.

As the biggest banker, there are three rounds and nine rounds in the betting ring. Each ring needs to have its own boxer. The level of the boxer determines whether they eat rake or win the ring. Only when the fist is hard enough can they be the dealer.

Zhang Jin readily agreed, this is also related to the stability of his own financial resources in the future, of course he cannot ignore it.After agreeing to Luo Hao, he sent Xiaoshui home first, and then rushed to Lianghelou.

Turning into Longjin Road, Zhang Jin ran into Ah You head-on. At this time, Ah You was wearing a suit and leather shoes, with four younger brothers behind him.

"Ah Jin!" Ah You saw him, and said with surprise on his face, "It's such a coincidence, have you eaten before, together! I also want to thank you for telling me the inside story, so I can win more than 3 yuan." He turned his head and rushed to the younger brother behind him They shouted, "Hey, you guys come here quickly and call Brother Qiancheng!"

"Hello, Brother Qiancheng!" The four younger brothers held things in both hands, nodded and bowed with smiles on their faces.

"Hello..." Zhang Jin was stunned halfway through speaking, because he saw a familiar face.
