On the second Friday, I boarded the flight to Beijing with Young Master Qu from Baiyun Airport. Two days ago, Dahai and Sixth Brother had already departed. The three of us split up into three groups and seemed to be the bodyguards of the Qu family.
Young Master Qu was still dressed casually. He carried a backpack and a 30 x 30, 7 - 8 cm thick aluminum case. Young Master Qu didn't say much, he didn't give me the details of this mission, he just told me to be responsible for the safety of the passcode box.
I took the box. It wasn't too heavy and should be filled with paper. I shook it a few times and it shook a little. It didn't look like a document. It felt like it was stacked. My first reaction was that it was banknotes, stacks of banknotes. If it was banknotes, how much could this box hold? "I estimate that even if we unite, it might only be around 70,000 to 80,000. Even if we take the risk, it won't exceed 100,000.
It's worth mentioning that it was my first time taking a plane. I boarded the plane through a special passage. There was no need for security checks or waiting in the waiting room. I boarded the plane directly. The plane wasn't big, with only 20 to 30 seats, but there was plenty of space between the seats. With a loud roar, the plane pushed people into the air. It felt great. The scenery outside the window became smaller. In a few moments, the plane rushed into the clouds, giving people the feeling of riding on clouds.
The passcode box had always been by my feet, leaning against the innermost part. Since I was responsible for the safety of the box, I had to do my best. Young Master Qu had been resting with his eyes closed. He didn't say a word throughout the entire flight. It seemed like he was deep in thought. I didn't want to disturb him, so I enjoyed the pleasure of riding the clouds.
When they arrived at Beijing's Xijiao Airport, there were already two people waiting to pick them up. They spoke fluent Beijing dialect and wore dark sunglasses. She sat in their car and turned left and right. It only stopped after more than an hour. There were fields all around, not the city at all.
Two Beijingers led me and Young Master Qu through a large courtyard and into a bungalow. The windows of the house were covered with paper, and the interior was a little dark.
"I brought him." The Beijinger who led the way said to the house, then retreated and closed the door behind him.
"It's Mindong, right?" A slightly hoarse voice came from the corner of the room. I looked in the direction of the voice and tried my best to adapt to the dim light. Finally, I saw an old man in his fifties or sixties sitting on an armchair with a pipe in his mouth.
"Yes, it's me. Uncle Cai, are you feeling well?”The district young master asked.
"Hehe, your Uncle Cai is very tough. I can kill a few tigers too. Hehe…Where's your dad?”
"He went to Xinjiang to handle some matters.”
"Okay, I'm not worried about you…Just put the things on the table and check them.”
Young Master Qu responded and didn't say anything else. He opened a wooden box on the stage.
"Xiaohu, come here. Do you know how to use this thing?”Young Master Qu called me over.
I looked at it and found it very familiar. It was a set of. 54 pistols: "It's alright. I've used it."
"Try pretending." Young Master Qu pushed the wooden box over.
I took out the parts and loaded the pistol. I pushed the magazine and placed the complete pistol on the table. In the army, dismantling and reassembling a gun is a basic skill. Even if it's pitch black, I can still dismantle and reassemble a gun within a minute, let alone the lights in the room. I dare to boast that my skills in this area are stronger than Sanfei and Sixth Brother.
"Not bad." Young Master Qu revealed a satisfied smile. He opened another paper box and took out a box of bullets and a pair of handcuffs." Xiaohu, put away the gun, bullets, and handcuffs."”
I didn't ask anything and put them all in my pocket.
"Uncle Cai, we have something to do.”
"Mm, okay. When you see your father, say hi for me. Come to Beijing more often when you have time.”
"Definitely, definitely."
……
The two Beijingers sent us to the city and left. Young Master Qu took a taxi to the Beijing Minzu Hotel and booked two single rooms. They were both on the third floor and the door was just opposite. Mindong and I each had a room. Young Master Qu handed the passcode box to me."Xiaohu, give me the handcuffs."
I took out the handcuffs and handed them to the District Master. He weighed them in his hand and suddenly, with a click, he handcuffed them to the handle of the passcode box and my left wrist. He pulled out the key and put it in his pocket."Xiao Hu, you're in the box, understand?”
"Yes."
"Stay in your room for the next two days and don't go anywhere. Unless I ask you to open the door, ignore everyone else.”Young Master Qu didn't speak much, just like his father, who spoke like he was giving orders.
"Understood."
"Alright, let's go to bed." After saying that, he went into his room.
I also went into my room. It was really nice. The room was very luxurious. There was a television, a phone, and a bathtub. However, it felt inconvenient for me to drag this passcode box.
She didn't sleep well that night. Perhaps it was because she wasn't used to having a box locked in her left hand, or perhaps it was because she was thinking about Fourth Sister. If that wasn't a box, but Fourth Sister, how great would that be! To be honest, I really want to know what's in the box. Is it really money? These eighty to ninety thousand, he could even bring out a huge victory, why would Young Master Qu be so cautious?
The next day, I stayed in my room. Through the peephole, I saw that Young Master Qu had gone out early in the morning and only returned at noon. He even brought me lunch. In the afternoon, Young Master Qu went out again. It seemed that he was quite busy.
Bored, I found Sanfei's phone number and called him. However, Sanfei was on a business trip again. The woman who answered the phone was the same as last time. Her voice was still so playful. This time, I asked her if she could help me contact Sanfei. Heh, she had learned her lesson." Sure, why are you looking for him?”
"Friends, let's chat." I'll be straightforward.
"Oh, if it's not an emergency, don't alarm Chief Dan. Who are you? I'll get him to call you back when he returns to City G, right?”This girl is still trying to trick me, but it feels like she's obviously smarter than last time.
Forget it, I put down the phone. He turned on the television to pass the time.
It was around 6 pm when I heard some movement outside the door. I quickly looked out through the peephole and saw two people, one fat and one thin, following Young Master Qu into the opposite room. The door was closed and there was no movement. About an hour later, the phone suddenly rang. I picked it up and heard the voice of Young Master Qu."Little Tiger?"
"It's me, Young Master Qu?"
"Yes, I am. Feel under the TV first. There's a key. Unlock the handcuffs. Put the box outside my door in ten minutes. Knock on the door three times and you can go back to your room. I'll get the box.”
" Oh," I replied and hung up the phone. I touched the bottom of the TV and found a key and a card. The handcuffs were unlocked. F * ck! Why didn't you say so earlier? I had to handcuff the box for a day and a night. I had to carry it even when I went to the toilet. It was so troublesome.
I knocked on the door three times after putting the box down. I immediately returned to my room and stared at the other side through the peephole.
The door opened. Young Master Qu pulled the box into the room and closed the door again.
After another half an hour, the fat and thin pair walked out from the opposite room. The fat one was holding the box in his hand. The two of them left without saying a word.
After a while, the phone rang again. I picked it up and asked,"Young Master Qu?"
"Um…Xiaohu, take a shower. Let's go out for dinner.”
"Oh." After hanging up the phone, I cursed in my heart. Even eating was like giving an order.
However, my sulkiness quickly disappeared. Young Master Qu took me to Raffles Hotel Beijing for dinner. I ordered a 1.5-pound Australian dragon and baked it with cheese butter. The fragrance assailed my nose and the taste was first-class.
"Little Tiger, how old are you?"
"I'm twenty-two years old." I replied while sucking the lobster leg.
"Ha, you look very mature. Not bad, not bad. You have a bright future.”
"Sigh, I don't have much ability and I don't know how to write. How can I have a future?”
"Young man, you're really humble. My father told me about you brothers leading the villagers to attack the town police station. You're so arrogant. You dare to do this when you're only in your early twenties. I'm almost ten years older than you. Even if I were to lead a team, I wouldn't dare to do it without a gun.”Young Master Qu took a sip of wine.
"No way, Young Master Qu, you're praising us too much. We were all forced to do this. If it happens again, I really wouldn't dare.”
"What is it? " You want to come again? Haha…" Young Master Qu laughed. He had been pulling a long face these past few days. This was the first time I saw him smile." Little Hu, it's finally done. I'll take you to relax tonight."”
"What is it? Done?" I was a little silly. I didn't seem to have put in much effort. The gun I was given didn't even fire a single bullet. The hardest part was being handcuffed for a day and a night.
"Yes, it's all done. I didn't expect it to be so smooth. You might be my lucky star.”
"Blessing General? Hehe, many people said that.”I smiled.
"Oh? Can you tell me?"
Hence, I told him about the South battlefield and he was mesmerized.
"So you were once a soldier and even went to the battlefield. No wonder you're so brave and skilled. Not bad, not bad…Xiaohu, do you mind cuffing you for the whole night?”
"No, no, it's no big deal. Young Master Qu, do you mind if I ask you a question?”I took the opportunity to confirm if my feeling was wrong. Was there money in the box? If it was, it was only less than 100,000 yuan. Why was it so mysterious?
"You want to know what's in the box, right?”This young master really knew how to read people's minds.
"Young Master Qu, you're smart.”
"Tell me, what do you think it is?"
"Money, stacks of money?"
The district young master didn't say anything. He smiled and nodded, looking at her with admiration.
"But I still have a question. Don't blame me for being nosy. With the size of this box, it would only be filled to the brim with 100,000 or 80,000.”I finally asked the question that I wanted to know and heaved a sigh of relief.
The district young master still smiled and took a sip of wine. He leaned his head against my ear and whispered,"Xiaohu, if it's US dollars, all 100 US dollars, how much do you think that box can hold?”
I stayed in my seat, unable to speak. At that time, I hadn't seen any US dollars, but no matter how big a hundred US dollars was, it wouldn't be too big. At that time, the black market had one US dollar to 13 or 14 RMB. Wouldn't that box be able to hold tens of millions of RMB?
What was the figure of 10 million at that time? I couldn't explain it either. I only knew that it was an astronomical number, a number that had nothing to do with civilians. There were countless zeros behind it.
Young Master Qu patted my shoulder and smiled."Xiaohu, did you bring your ID card?"
"Yes, I have it with me."
"Alright, hurry up and eat. I'll take you to a place after you're done.”After saying that, he leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to take a nap, a smile on his face.
