Tan Tao explained: "Fat Ding and I are buddies, he is older than me...that, I will say it directly. Boss, how about you help me, if there is a suitable girl... introduce it to me

.”

The last few words he said were a bit embarrassing but also very sincere.

Hu Pingtao suddenly realized: "After doing this for a long time, is this what you really want to say?"

Tan Tao had the urge to cover his face: "...I rarely ask for help...even Fatty Ding has a girlfriend, I...I...sigh..."

Hu Pingtao was dumbfounded: "Do you think I run a marriage agency?"

Without waiting for Tan Tao to answer, he continued: "I can only say try my best. This kind of thing can't be done reluctantly. When I go back, I will ask my wife if she has any suitable girls there. If so, I will help you another day.

Make an appointment and talk among yourselves."

Tan Tao suddenly became elated: "Okay! That's it."

…

Back in the office, Tan Tao received a call from the 110 command center and took the people out.

More than ten minutes later, the command center sent another message: There was a dispute at the Xikou vegetable market.

Hu Pingtao rushed to the scene quickly with an auxiliary police officer.

A large group of people gathered at the "D" intersection to the east of the vegetable market, watching the fun and blocking the intersection.

The electric car couldn't get in at all. Helpless, Hu Pingtao had no choice but to park the car outside, get off the car and walk in.

The victims were a man and a woman.

The man is a young man, in his twenties, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses.

The woman is the proprietress of a roasted glutinous rice shop.

Hu Pingtao asked about the situation in a few words.

As the Mid-Autumn Festival approaches, the roasted nuts shop also sells roasted chestnuts based on market demand. This shop is mainly run by this woman, and her skills are quite good. The sugar-roasted chestnuts are not roasted using a machine, but they still use the traditional method of turning sand with a shovel.

of strenuous work.

To stir-fry chestnuts with sugar, you need to stir-fry them one pot at a time. After frying one pot, pour it into a sieve to filter out the sugar sand, and what is left is the warm, delicious and refreshing cooked chestnuts.

The roasted seeds and nuts shop does a good business, and people often queue up to buy them. Under normal circumstances, the sugar-roasted chestnuts are sold out before they are completely cool.

There were few customers at noon, so the proprietress took the opportunity to fry two pots of chestnuts. As soon as she picked up the bowl to eat, a woman came over.

The woman was in her forties and dressed fashionably. When she came in, she picked up a chestnut and peeled it. While peeling it, she asked, "How much does a pound of fried chestnut cost?"

The landlady had been busy all morning and was very hungry. She was busy eating, so she casually replied: "Nineteen yuan."

The woman opened her mouth and lowered the price: "It's too expensive! Can it be sold at fifteen?"

Even though the proprietress was big and round, it was very laborious to fry dozens of kilograms of chestnuts at a time with a shovel. She shook her head and refused to give up the price. The woman didn't say anything and threw the peeled chestnuts into her mouth...

...Maybe he thought it tasted good, so he said, "Weigh it for five yuan."

The landlady was a little unhappy at the time - businessmen are very good at judging people. A pound of sugar-roasted chestnuts is not much, and half a pound only costs about ten yuan. If you push down half the price, it only costs five yuan.

It’s not easy to weigh. I would definitely not like it if there are fewer customers, but I feel uncomfortable if there are too many. After all, chestnuts are not like peanuts, melon seeds and the like. More or less is easier to balance. It is big and takes up a lot of space.

The price is not cheap either.

Besides, you tasted one when you asked the price just now. Isn’t that money?

When she opened the door for business, all the customers came. After thinking about it, the proprietress decided that it was not worth getting angry over such a thing, so she put down the bowl and chopsticks, stood up and weighed the chestnuts for the woman. But while she was packing the bag, the woman peeled another one.

As the chestnuts ate, the proprietress became more and more unhappy, but after thinking about it, she felt that she shouldn't be too stingy. At the same time, she also wanted to win over repeat customers, so she didn't say anything, but moved her hands faster.

She has seen many people like this. As long as the food is not weighed well and paid for, they will continue to "taste" it.

The proprietress moved very quickly and handed the weighed sugar-roasted chestnuts to the woman. The woman took it and took out her mobile phone to scan the QR code to pay.

Please note that payment is "prepared", not paid.

At this time, a young man who had just come out of the vegetable market walked by. He knew the woman and said hello casually. The woman also exchanged polite greetings, and the conversation between the two was nothing more than "

What kind of food did you buy?”, “The roasted seeds and nuts in this store are very good, and the sugar-roasted chestnuts are delicious” and so on.

Speaking of roasted chestnuts, the woman picked up the ones she had just weighed and showed them to the young man. The young man was very interested, so he opened the paper bag and took a look inside.

The woman may think that chestnuts are delicious, so she picks up another chestnut from the pile of roasted chestnuts, peels off the shell, and pops it into her mouth.

Now the landlady can't sit still anymore - I can give you a taste before buying something, but now that you have paid, I will also give you the chestnuts. You don't eat your own, you always eat mine

What do you mean? Besides, you didn’t buy much. It only cost five yuan in total for fried chestnuts. There were only seven or eight in the bag. You ate three of them at once, one after another.

It adds up to several dollars.

Thinking of this, the landlady frowned and said to the woman: "This thing is expensive and you don't buy much, so don't try it all the time."

A very common sentence suddenly stirred up a hornet's nest.

The woman screamed at that time: "What's wrong with me trying it? It's not like I won't buy it after tasting it."

Not to be outdone, the proprietress put her hands on her hips and argued, "Are you trying to taste it? You've eaten so much, and you don't even look at how much you bought?"

The woman's face was full of anger: "How can there be a business like yours? Why don't you let me taste the things you buy? Okay, since you said so, I don't want these chestnuts."

She turned to leave, but the landlady rushed out of the shop and grabbed her.

"Why should I give you a refund? You've eaten so many chestnuts from me, and you don't want them anymore just because you don't want them? No way!"

The woman struggled hard and screamed: "I just don't want it anymore. I've never seen someone like you buying and selling by force. I don't want it... I just won't buy anything from you today!"

The landlady's heart was full of anger, but she thought that what the woman said made sense, so she settled for the next best thing, "Okay! You don't need the five-yuan chestnuts, but the ones you just ate must be counted."

You have to be reasonable when doing business. To be fair, you can taste things when you buy them, but you can't go overboard. Since the sale cannot be completed and both parties are at odds, there is no "taste". In short, you can either spit out what you have eaten or give it to others.

Money, choose one of the two.

The woman had her own logic. She shook off the landlady's hand, pointed at her and yelled: "Why should I pay? Can't I try the things I'm buying?"

At this time, people nearby gathered around.

The proprietress kept retorting: "Have you ever tasted it like this? You tasted three pills. Do you want me to take the whole shop back to you? I tell you, you must pay for it!"

Just like that, the two of them started to quarrel without stopping.

The people watching nearby couldn't interrupt, so they could only listen.

The young man and the woman were acquaintances, and he wanted to help her speak out, but when he thought about it carefully, he found that the woman was indeed unreasonable in this matter, but the "humanity thinking" prevailed.

He said to the landlady: "She just tasted three of your roasted chestnuts. How about this? You take three back from the bag and pay for the rest. Is that okay?"

Without waiting for the lady boss to answer, the woman quickly stopped the young man, grabbed the paper bag containing chestnuts from his hand, raised her finger and pointed at the lady boss and said angrily: "Why should you pay her back? Why don't you let me taste the things you bought? If you don't give them to me, I will

I want it!"

The landlady was so angry that she said, "Anyone can taste it, but you can't!"

Hearing what the landlady said, the woman suddenly became furious: "I just tasted it today, how dare you do anything to me?"

As she spoke, the woman threw down the large sieve containing chestnuts, grabbed several handfuls of chestnuts and stuffed them into paper bags.

She moved very quickly, and everyone's attention was focused on the quarrel at that time. No one expected her to act like this. Including the boss's wife, they just watched helplessly, their minds were very confused, and they had no idea what to do.

I stepped forward to stop him... I finally came to my senses and realized that the woman had already filled the entire bulging paper bag, which looked to be at least three kilograms.

"What are you doing? Put my things down!"

The proprietress wanted to step forward to stop the woman, but during the quarrel, she was standing outside the store, with a counter between her and the woman. The onlookers nearby blocked the passage into the store from the side, so she could only raise her hand and point at the people standing in the store.

The woman said angrily and anxiously: "Put it down quickly, or I will call the police!"

The woman looked at her with hatred and contempt: "You retaliate! Do you think I am afraid of you!"

After saying that, she dodged and left the roasted seed shop from the side.

The proprietress was so anxious that she hurriedly chased her out, but there were three layers of onlookers blocking the road. By the time she finally squeezed out, the woman had already gone far away and couldn't even see her shadow.

Because I was the only one in the store, if I continued chasing, no one would be watching the store. The loss might be even greater, and the landlady would have to turn back.

Fortunately, the young man is still there.

The proprietress grabbed him and refused to let him go without saying anything: "Everyone saw it. She just took at least three kilograms of fried chestnuts from me. You have to pay."

She had a basis for doing this - the young man knew the woman, and the monk could not escape the temple if he ran away. Since the real owner could not be caught, she asked her acquaintances for money.

"You two are in the same group."

"What do you mean? If you can't afford it, don't buy it. You're robbing it in broad daylight. What kind of place do you think this is?"

"Let me tell you, I have called my man. You must pay me today, otherwise I will make you walk around without food!"

The young man was also confused by the woman's previous series of operations. He never dreamed that the woman would do this. He became anxious and quickly argued to draw a clear line with her. He said to the landlady: "What does this have to do with me? Who does this have to do with me?"

Who are you looking for to get your chestnuts? Why are you looking for me?"

"Who am I going to look for if I don't look for you?" The landlady was very angry, with an angry look on her face: "You are together, she robbed my things, so I can only look for you. You must give money, otherwise I will call the police."

"Then you report her!" The young man defended repeatedly: "I also suggest you call the police. In fact, I don't know her either. I just nod to her when I often meet her when buying vegetables at the vegetable market."

I couldn't explain this clearly, so I called the police.
