Cold Treatment
For three consecutive days, the four female landowners seemed to have come to an agreement and ignored Xue Xiaobao. They all went out to eat, but Xiaobao could only stay in the house to make his own food. He called for food, but he could not bear to part with the few hundred yuan. Every time he ordered a bowl of ramen, he could not even bear to order vegetables.
After three days of this kind of life, he felt that it was time to tell the landlady that he was injured and needed to be nourished. He really couldn't stand eating ramen every day.
"I want to improve my diet. I want money!”Every time Lin Baobao and the others returned, Xiaobao would shout, his voice filled with endless grievance and bitterness.
Cold treatment! This was the result of Lin Baobao, Su Rong, Xiao Lian, and Chen Xin's discussion. This was the only way to deal with this thick-skinned and shameless fellow.
For three whole days, they did not say a word to Xiaobao Xue. They seemed to have forgotten about him.
Xue Xiaobao was bored to death. He changed his dressing and took a taxi every day. He ate a bowl of beef noodles every day. With his standard of living, his daily expenses were no less than 50 yuan.
Five days later, Xue Xiaobao was on the verge of bankruptcy. He had to find a way to make money. He planned to sell the TV first. Anyway, he would not bow down to them. The boxing match would start in five days. Su Rong was the most anxious. She had asked her father to settle all the procedures. Now they were in a stalemate with Xiaobao, and they were anxious.
As usual, the four female landowners returned home and began to plot again.
Su Rong frowned and said," The competition will start in five days. If this stalemate continues, the losses will outweigh the gains."”
"Aiya, don't keep thinking about money. This time, he won't lower his head and admit defeat? Then how are we going to bully him in the future?”Lin Baobao disagreed.
"Baby is right. If we don't tame him now, he will be even more amazing in the future.”Chen Xin said.
"I know. The problem is that the person in charge of the boxing competition informed me that the contestants have to go for a physical examination and there are some matters regarding the contract. If he didn't go in two more days, the organizers would cancel Xiaobao's spot.”Su Rong said.
"Ah! It's so serious." Chen Xin exclaimed.
"Of course. Do you think it's that simple? We've already paid the registration fee of 200,000 yuan. We can't just give up the money just because we're angry with him.”Su Rong pouted.
Xiao Lian sighed." I don't approve of Little Treasure fighting in that underground boxing competition. He hasn't recovered yet, and the stitches on his leg haven't been removed." If anything happens, you can do as you please. I'm going to sleep. I won't get involved in your business.”After Xiao Lian finished speaking, she stood up and left.
She went to the living room on the first floor and saw that Xiaobao Xue was watching cartoons. She ignored him and walked to where Xiaobao Xue usually put his clothes. She stuffed two thousand yuan into his pants pocket. He looked at Xiaobao and shook his head helplessly.
Xue Xiaobao didn't see any of this. Xiao Lian returned to her room on the second floor, thinking about whether she should give Xue Xiaobao his freedom. If she allowed Su Rong and the others to continue playing like this, something would happen sooner or later.
Xue Xiaobao made up his mind. He would not compromise. He would contact the scrap collector tomorrow morning and sell the LCD TV first. If he did not give him the money, he would starve to death.
He was not worried that Xiao Lian and the others would deduct his money because they had never paid him his salary. He calculated that this 35-inch television would sell for at least 1,000 yuan. Even if he bought a new one, it would only be 10,000 yuan. At most, he would take two months 'salary to offset his salary!
After making up his mind, Xiaobao was no longer in a hurry. He happily watched the cartoon.

The next morning, Xiao Lian, Su Rong, Lin Baobao, and Chen Xin went out. Xiaobao quickly ran to call the garbage collection site. He had already contacted them yesterday when he went out to change his dressing. The phone number was coming.
"Qingyue District, Block B, No. 13.”Xiaobao was so happy that his teeth broke. He was so excited that his body trembled.
He lay on the sofa and waited for the money to come to him. He did not feel guilty at all for selling other people's things. Instead, he felt endless joy.
The phone rang. Xiaobao was shocked. They couldn't be back, could they? Without giving him time to think, he quickly picked up the phone and said,"Hey, who are you looking for?"
"Is this Boss Xue?"
"I am!" Xiaobao answered quickly. He was very satisfied with the title of boss.
"I'm a waste collector, but the security guard won't let me in.”
"Alright, wait a moment. I'll go right away.”Xiaobao hung up and quickly put on his clothes.
He had only been wearing a pair of shorts at home because of the stitches on his thigh. Now that he was out, he naturally had to dress up to be worthy of the word "boss".
He put on his clothes and left the room. The security guards on duty all knew him. Xue Xiaobao put in a few good words and handed him a cigarette. The security guards did not make things difficult for him.
The garbage collector was a middle-aged man who rode a tricycle to Xiaobao Xue's house.
"Come here. It's that television. How much do you charge?”Xiaobao stood at the door and pointed at the LCD TV in the living room.
"Good or bad?"
"Alright."
"A thousand dollars!"
"What about the broken ones?"
"That's hard to say. If it can't be repaired, it'll be at most a hundred yuan.”
"A thousand it is." Xiaobao gritted his teeth and nodded. "Go and move it," he said.
"Alright." The owner of the junk collection shop walked into the living room with a smile, unplugged the power cord, and walked out with the TV.
After loading the tricycle, the boss counted out a thousand yuan and gave it to Xue Xiaobao. He then rode away on the tricycle. He was extremely happy. Rich people all had problems with their brains…
Xiaobao reached into his pocket to put the money in, but he suddenly found a stack of things in his pocket. He took it out and was stunned. He counted the stack of money. It was a total of 2,000 yuan.
Could it be that they were afraid that I would be hungry and deliberately gave it to me? Aiya, this was troublesome. He rushed to catch up with the scrap collector and wanted to buy the TV back no matter what.
However, he had given up on collecting waste. He had already made a deal. It was too late to go back on his word now.
Xiaobao rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight. After scolding and threatening him, the waste collector finally gave in and agreed to return the money, but he had to pay him a hundred yuan for his hard work.
Xiaobao thought to himself,"That's right, I brought her all the way here. A hundred yuan isn't much."
The garbage collector moved the TV back, plugged it in, and everything returned to its original state. Xiaobao finally paid.
Xiaobao was very touched by this. Although the four women liked to tease and bully him, they were not bad people. Girls all cared about their pride and were too embarrassed to admit defeat, so they could only secretly give him money.
Xue Xiaobao was not a petty person. He decided to forgive them and agreed to participate in the competition. He would treat them to a good meal tonight.
