"That's great, Big Liu. It's good that you're fine. Then... What's the situation inside?" When Zheng Juan saw Liu Bei come out, she first let out a sigh of relief and then asked curiously.
Liu Bei said seriously,"There are people selling food tickets inside."”
Zheng Juan nodded after hearing Liu Bei's words. Many people were doing this nowadays.
However, when she saw Liu Bei's serious expression, she immediately knew that the matter was not as simple as selling food stamps. There must be something else.
Therefore, he asked softly with a curious expression,""Big Liu, are you not done talking?”
Liu Bei nodded and said in a deep voice,""There's an even more serious problem, reselling gold bars!”
When Zheng Juan heard this, she instantly revealed an expression of common hatred. She frowned and said,"We grew up under the red flag. We can't sit idly by when we see crime. We have to report it.”
The people of this era were all patriotic. After all, the war had just ended. Everyone loved this country deeply!
She could understand if it was just a normal reselling of food stamps. After all, many people resold them. After all, this would also solve the problem of many families having money but no tickets!
However, the situation was different now. This time, there were even gold bars being sold. This was strictly prohibited by the country! The two were on completely different levels!
Liu Bei also nodded in agreement. He had suspected that the Deaf Old Lady's identity was better from the beginning. The people from the Siheyuan said that the Deaf Old Lady used to make shoes for soldiers.
The deaf old lady had also told the public that her two sons had died in the army. How could such a person have something like gold bars?
Liu Bei was still thinking about how to make this matter clear! If the deal with the deaf old lady was over, it would be useless for them to bring the police here.
In the alley!
The middle-aged woman's eyes lit up when she saw the gold bar in the Deaf Old Lady's hand. She immediately snatched it over and placed it in her mouth to bite it.
He was overjoyed when he saw the faint teeth marks on the gold bars. Panting slightly, he asked,"Old lady, you…this thing is real. Where did you get it?"”
The Deaf Old Lady snatched the gold bar from the middle-aged woman's hand and said with a very unfriendly expression,
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. It's not good for you to know more! As long as it was real! Count the number of food stamps first, then we'll discuss the price of this gold bar!”
As she spoke, the Deaf Old Lady put the gold bar back into her clothes and handed the food ticket to the middle-aged woman.
"Yes, yes, Old Madam. I was just a little curious, so I asked. Don't be oversensitive!”
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman took the Deaf Old Lady's food stamps and began to count them. There were too many of them. Many of them were in small quantities, and a few were in whole catties.
"Old Madam, I'll give you the same price as before. One catty for one cent.”
"Alright, count faster."
The Deaf Old Lady looked around anxiously. After all, this was speculation, and the amount was huge.
After a few minutes, the middle-aged woman finally matched the votes!
"Old Madam, the quantity is correct. It is indeed 130 catties.”
Hearing this, the Deaf Old Lady's heart was in her throat, and she was slightly relieved. She immediately urged,
"If the number is right, hurry up. I'm getting goosebumps!”
The middle-aged woman put the food stamps into the basket and took out the money wrapped in cloth from her clothes. She smiled and said,
"Old Madam, it's fine. There are so many people speculating. Moreover, the place we chose is very remote. There aren't many people walking around usually.”
Although the deaf old lady agreed with the middle-aged woman's words, for some reason, her eyelids were twitching crazily. Perhaps it was because of her identity, she had a strong sense of danger.
All she wanted to do now was to get the money and go back as soon as possible so that she could continue pretending to be the old lady hiding at home!
The middle-aged woman began to count. After a while, she continued,"
"It's a total of twenty-seven and thirty cents.”
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman handed the money to the Deaf Old Lady. The Deaf Old Lady took the money and began to count it.
Although she was in a hurry to leave, counting the money on the spot was an essential step.
After the deaf old lady finished counting, she started bargaining with the middle-aged woman. A loud voice rang out,"
"Don't move, raise your hands! We are the public security!"
Five uniformed policemen with pistols in their hands rushed in from the corner of the alley and caught the deaf old lady and the middle-aged woman in the act.
The gold bars in the deaf old lady's hands and the basket that the middle-aged woman was boasting about fell to the ground when the sudden shout and the bright pistol were pointed at her.
Money, food stamps, and some other tickets were scattered all over the ground. The middle-aged woman was so scared that she peed her pants and instantly fell to the ground.
However, the Deaf Old Lady was very calm. She was mentally strong and was still struggling in her heart. Should she surrender or fight back? However, he made a decision in a moment. She couldn't be caught, or everything would be over!
Just as she was about to sneak out a pistol from her clothes to fight back, she was spotted by a sharp-eyed police officer. Just as she was about to take out her pistol and attack...
An old policeman shot her in the wrist and the pistol fell to the ground. The deaf old lady covered her wound with her hand. A police officer stepped forward and picked up the gun.
The middle-aged woman was so frightened by the gunshot that she covered her head and screamed. She squatted in the corner, not daring to move.
When the police captain saw this situation, he was extremely happy. At the beginning, they were only catching chickens for stealing. No one expected to catch such a big fish. Now, they had caught a spy. This was a political achievement!
……
Outside the alley, Liu Bei was already riding his bicycle and bringing Zheng Juan home.
As for how the ending would be, they all knew, so they did not stay at the scene to watch. Besides, it was getting late.
Coincidentally, Liu Bei was still thinking that it was a pity that he had missed this opportunity.
However, at this moment, five patrolling public security officers walked over from the opposite side. They were all going back to report for work.
Things were just so coincidental. It could only be said that God wanted to take the Deaf Old Lady's life.
"Big Liu, what do you think will happen to them after they are caught?”
Zheng Juan suddenly asked Liu Bei. From her tone, it seemed that she was doubting whether they were right to report it.
Liu Bei comforted him,"
"It's okay, Xiao Juan. They brought this on themselves. We've done a good deed! Respond to the call of the country."
"Yes." After replying, Zheng Juan did not say anything else. Instead, she leaned her head against Liu Bei's back.
Not long after, they returned to Zheng Juan's house.
Upon seeing them return, Zheng Juan's mother was all smiles. Liu Bei was now their son-in-law! He was just short of finding an auspicious day to register his marriage and attend the banquet!
Liu Bei had already discussed with them that the banquet would be held in the restaurant! He didn't invite anyone from the quad! There were also the good people in the factory, the relatives of the bride's side!
