After a long time, he had interacted with Fang Long, Lin Zhanzhan, and Wu Yong for a long time. Liu Jun had already understood their temperaments thoroughly.
There was a rumor among the people that had no scientific basis. It said that men with bigger noses tended to be more lecherous. This was vividly reflected in Van Loon.
Ever since this kid was able to receive the " fees " on the streets, he had given most of his money to the gentle woman. As a result, he had gotten to know Liu Xiangui, and the two of them had become one of the " Big Four."
As his name suggested, Battle Lin liked fighting very much. Whenever he had time, he would pester Liu Jun to teach him a few moves.
Liu Jun realized that he had some talent in martial arts. He learned the moves taught to him very quickly, so he taught him more diligently.
Wu Yong, the person who named him back then probably hoped that he would be as resourceful as Mr. Jialiang in Mount Liang. Now, Liu Jun could confirm that his name was not wrong.
Wu Yong usually didn't talk much, but he was very rigorous in his work. He planned everything before taking action. Moreover, he could also explain his literary and military strategies clearly.
It was a pity that his educational level was a little low, so Liu Jun could only train him in the direction of a dog-headed strategist.
For a few days, Liu Jun followed the high guy on patrol duty on the street. The high guy was still the same. There was nothing serious about patrolling. The most important thing was to collect fees from the vendors.
Three cents for Liu Jun and the others was 110 yuan a month. This was considered an above average income in the current Xiang Lane.
However, the actual income of the military police could reach more than 300 yuan, and the rest was the "fee" received.
Because Gao Lao gambled on horse racing and rarely won, most of his money had to be sent to the dealer in the Walled City of Nine Dragons. Sometimes, he even owed money.
This also led to him not collecting fees according to the "rules" at a fixed time.
"Police officer, didn't you just collect them yesterday? Why are you here today?”The stall owner complained.
"Alright, cut the crap. Just treat it as next week. Can't I accept it in advance?”
"We haven't opened for business today. You can come back in the afternoon to collect them.”
"Alright, then I'll come back in the afternoon. Don't let me go back empty-handed.”
Gao Lao wasn't a bad person. Although he collected fees diligently, he never bullied these vendors. These stall owners were also familiar with Gao Lao. They knew that he was a gambler. It wasn't the first time he had collected fees in advance. They all knew in their hearts that those with ample money would pay the fees in advance.
After receiving the money, Gao Lao gave half of it to Liu Jun, but he didn't want it.
Gao Lao said to him earnestly: "Young man, don't pretend to be righteous. You've been on duty with me for more than a month, and you don't accept red packets every time I give you. If the water is too clear, there will be no fish. Everyone does this. What can you do?
In short, it was still the same old saying. One could only rise step by step if they followed the flow and joined forces with others. He wanted to save some money so that he could marry a beautiful wife in the future.”
Liu Jun adjusted the police cap on his head and said,"Gao Lao, you don't have to misunderstand. It's not that I'm high and mighty, it's just that I don't care about this small amount of money.”
"Puff," the tall guy spat out the water he just drank and looked at Liu Jun's face as if he was looking at a monster,"What do you mean?" Are you complaining about the lack of money?"
"Yeah, look at the money in your hand. It's all copper coins and not even a few notes. What can you do with this little money? You can't even bet on horses to your heart's content. Don't you still owe a lot of money?”
"Bah, you brat, don't scold me. That's my fault. I like to gamble. If I had lived a peaceful life, I would have saved up a lot of money over the years.
I think you're just a well-behaved person. You smoke three cannons and eat Chezai noodles. You don't smoke, you don't prostitute, and you don't gamble. You're handsome and tall. If you take this money and save it for a year or two, buy a house and marry a beautiful wife, wouldn't your life be wonderful?”
"Hehe, Gao Lao, you are talking about the lives of ordinary people. I am not an ordinary person.”Liu Jun smiled and said.
"Tch, you brat…"
Gao Lao pointed at Liu Jun and didn't say the rest of the words.
In his opinion, Liu Jun was just like him. At the beginning, he was ambitious and always thought that he could do something big. However, after a period of time, he would still disappear from everyone.
If he didn't take money now, he would take even more money in the future. He didn't know how many young men he had seen.
"Robbery, robbery…"
Just as the two of them were walking slowly down the street, a woman's shout suddenly came from ahead.
Liu Jun looked in the direction of the voice and saw a skinny man running in front of him, panting heavily. He was holding a women's bag in his hand.
Behind him, a woman in a simple cheongsam and high-platform shoes chased after him while shouting,"Catch the thief, catch the thief, everyone, help me catch the thief. There's money in the bag for my man's treatment.”
Her shouts did not have any effect. When the people on the street saw the man running over, not only did they not help block him, but they quickly dodged to the side.
Seeing the robber running further and further away, the woman's eyes first revealed a trace of despair, then became determined. She threw off her cloth shoes and chased after the robber barefooted.
