Chapter 194: Xu Damao Becomes a Robber
However, there were good and bad aspects. At least, Lou Xiao'e helped him bring Xu Damao over.
If it weren't for Lou Xiao'e writing the letter, Lao Mo would never have written it.
There was no other way; coming all the way from Beijing to Hong Kong, and even having to smuggle myself across the border, was just too dangerous.
Lao Mo didn't want Xu Damao to take such a risk.
Xu Damao and Qin Jingru finished showering quickly.
I went straight downstairs, got into my Mercedes, and drove off to Nathan Road.
This is now the most prosperous place in Hong Kong.
The streets are bustling with traffic, and the double-decker buses are iconic sights here.
Shops lined the roadside, displaying all sorts of GG signs and colorful lights, creating a unique Hong Kong landscape.
The three country bumpkins stared in disbelief. Is this what capitalist society is like? It's so corrupt.
Old Mo, carrying his daughter, led them into a shopping mall.
Upon entering, you are greeted by display cases selling all kinds of watches and jewelry.
The display case was exceptionally bright, and the various ornaments inside were dazzling and glittering.
"Wow……"
Qin Jingru's eyes were glued to these things.
There's no way around it, this thing is just too lethal to women. Especially women who have never even seen one before.
Now that Xu Damao felt more confident, he pulled Qin Jingru along and walked up.
"Come on, honey, I'll buy it for you."
There was no other way; Xu Damao just wanted to show off in front of Sha Zhu.
Let Qin Jingru know how wise it was for her to choose him instead of Sha Zhu.
Sha Zhu was also very curious, so he went up to take a look.
Old Mo held his daughter's hand and followed behind.
The woman selling jewelry immediately looked disgusted when she saw the three country bumpkins.
Although all three of them had taken a nice bath, they still looked smelly just by looking at their clothes.
The woman covered her nose, fanned herself with her hand, and looked disgusted.
Hearing what they said again only made me more disgusted.
It turned out they were three people who had just fled famine from the interior; people like that couldn't possibly have money.
With just one glance, the woman confirmed the identities of the three people.
Xu Damao had no idea they were being disliked; he and Qin Jingru were watching with great interest.
"Honey, what do you think of these gold watches? Do you like them?"
Qin Jingru nodded mechanically.
Every watch here is much better looking than those in China. They're all glittering with gold.
"I'm glad you like them. Salesperson, please bring out these gold watches for us to see."
Xu Damao pointed to the pair of gold watches and said matter-of-factly.
The sales clerks can understand them and can converse with them, although they don't speak very fluently.
The sales clerk's expression immediately changed. Covering her nose, she said, "Where did this country bumpkin come from? Get out, get out..."
She thought these three country bumpkins would just glance at it and leave, but she didn't expect them to actually take it out to look at it. Isn't that disgusting?
She felt cheapened and disgusted just by getting close to them and smelling their odor.
Xu Damao was stunned, staring at the saleswoman in disbelief.
He thought the sales clerks in mainland China were invincible, but little did he know, the ones in Hong Kong were even more invincible. Whose subordinate is this?
Xu Damao said speechlessly, "We came to buy things. How are we supposed to buy them if you don't show them to us?"
The saleswoman got angry.
"I told you to get out, didn't you hear me? Don't you know what kind of counter this is? Just any Tom, Dick, or Harry comes here to look. Is this something you should respect? Get out, get out..."
The saleswoman covered her nose and waved her hand dismissively, as if she were shooing away a fly.
Old Mo picked Chen Yao up to watch the show, then stood behind her and laughed.
Back when they went to buy a car, they were also looked down upon. But none of them were as arrogant as this saleswoman!
The three country bumpkins were so embarrassed! These Hong Kongers acted all high and mighty, not treating them like human beings at all.
There was no way around it; back then, Hong Kong people naturally had this sense of superiority when facing mainlanders.
Even now, it's the same; it's something that can't be shaken off or changed.
The three of them are like this; no matter where they go, people will basically treat them the same way.
Xu Damao blushed instantly, feeling humiliated in front of his wife and Sha Zhu, something he absolutely could not tolerate.
In a fit of anger, he reached into his pocket and rummaged around until he pulled out a wad of cash, which he then slammed onto the counter.
He then pulled out another stack of cards and slapped them on the counter.
Take it out again...
boom……
Take it out again...
Stacks of money were slammed onto the counter with a series of thuds; all 100,000 yuan had been pulled out and piled up on the counter—it was a huge heap.
This immediately attracted a lot of onlookers.
"Wow, how rich must they be?"
Everyone was amazed.
These days, very few people can readily pull out 100,000 yuan.
Xu Damao angrily said, "Can you take it out now? You snobbish jerk."
The saleswoman's expression immediately changed, and she smiled more beautifully than any flower.
"Oh, sir, I'm so sorry, I misjudged you just now. Please don't be angry, I'll show it to you right away."
The sales clerk's expression changed instantly, and she quickly took out the pair of gold watches and placed them on the counter.
Xu Damao calmed down a bit and picked up the gold watch to look at it.
"Wife, do you like it?"
Qin Jingru nodded, but she still felt a little uneasy.
I want it, but I don't want to buy it from this saleswoman.
At this moment, Old Mo spoke.
"Brother Da Mao, where can we not find this? Let's go buy it across the street."
Upon hearing this, Xu Damao immediately realized what was going on.
"Yes, yes, let's go buy it across the street. Hmph..."
Xu Damao snorted coldly and began to tidy up the money on the table.
The saleswoman was dumbfounded.
No, is this how you play tricks on people?
The saleswoman got angry.
"Hey country bumpkin, what are you doing? You've taken it out but aren't going to buy it. Aren't you just messing with me?"
Xu Damao said smugly, "What law says that just because you take it out, I have to buy it? Humph..."
After Xu Damao finished speaking, he stuffed the money into his pocket. If one pocket wasn't enough, he'd stuff in a few more.
Then, pulling Qin Jingru along, he turned and went to the counter opposite.
The saleswoman was so angry she almost rolled her eyes.
She's angry, and the consequences will be severe. You bunch of mainlanders, you think I can't handle you?
"Don't go. You're just a guy from mainland China, carrying so much money. You must have stolen or robbed it somewhere. Don't go, I'm calling the police."
"what?"
Xu Damao got scared when he heard the police were called. He couldn't help it; he felt guilty! He didn't even have an ID card yet!
Old Mo said, "You bitch, you think you're so great? Don't you like calling the police? Go ahead and call them! Brother Da Mao, let's go across the street and buy some, let's make her furious."
As he spoke, he led the three of them to the counter of another store across the street.
The saleswoman was so angry she stomped her feet. Finally, unable to contain herself any longer, she ran over, picked up the phone, and dialed.
"Hello, is this the police station? I need to report a crime... Yes, a few people came to our mall. They look like robbers, carrying hundreds of thousands of dollars! They're dressed like beggars, they're obviously robbers."
