Chapter 86: 86. Lao Sun brings in a new customer_1

Old Sun felt a tremble in his heart upon hearing this sentence.

Suddenly, he experienced an inexplicable sense of superiority—so it turned out that Old Sun had such great influence, able to buy this one or two! Worth it!

He glanced at his useless brothers, looked around to make sure there was no one familiar in the market, and then whispered:

“Can’t you guys figure it out? Let’s all chip in to buy it together, then divide it up when we get back!”

Five or six people, all together, that shouldn’t be too far off… right?

So, several grown men stood next to the pickup truck, transferring money: you 2000, I 3000, he 1500.

...

As the last one to make a payment, Old Sun had just reluctantly scanned the code, when suddenly his shoulder sank, gripped firmly by an iron-like hand—

“Police, don’t move!”

…

Song Tan had just poked his head out from the back of the truck when he saw Qiaoqiao’s shoulder seized by a uniformed man, and the silly kid was even grinning:

“Uncle! Wow, Police Uncle is here! Qiaoqiao has an ID tag!”

The moment he said this, it didn’t sound like an adult’s tone, and the man with the buzzcut holding him was taken aback, inadvertently letting go of his arm.

Then he watched as Qiaoqiao reached into his collar to pull something out, making everyone’s heart clench, only to end up pulling out a brass dog tag—

［Bao Bao Qiaoqiao］

On the flip side was a string of phone numbers.

Song Tan was puzzled:

“I just didn’t rent a stall, just set up a street stand… Do you guys even handle issues for the Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau now?”

Everyone was transparent and confused, feeling like they couldn’t grasp what was going on.

…

A moment later.

A group of people with disheveled looks and droopy eyes were sitting in a room.

“Spill it, how do you all communicate?!”

Communicate how?

A bunch of grown men buying tea got muddled and ended up here. The money had just been transferred, and they hadn’t even received the tea!

As the ringleader, Old Sun was at this moment overawed by the stern atmosphere, looked around hesitantly, and finally ventured:

“Well… there’s a group chat, we meet at the market at a certain time every day, there are notifications in the group…”

Well, well, well!

A crime business with a group chat, that must be a sizable operation!

A group of police officers was eager to quickly bust this criminal gang!

“Your phones, take them out and show me this group of yours!”

Meanwhile, in another room—

The young police officer had just entered when Qiaoqiao excitedly shouted, “Police Uncle!”

He stopped dead, subconsciously touched his face, and then frowned, “Stop smiling, explain yourself clearly!”

Qiaoqiao was not at all intimidated by his stern look, blinked, and pulled out the tag that was almost mistaken for a weapon:

“Uncle, my sister said to show my tag to the Police Uncle if I see one.”

His skin was fair, his pupils bright, and he exuded an air of innocence that did not match what everyone had imagined.

The two police officers in charge of the statement looked at each other, feeling like something didn’t quite add up…

On this side, as the stall owner and group admin, Song Tan was given a single room.

But for some reason, no one had come in, until there was a commotion outside after a good while.

The door was opened.

A few police officers, with embarrassed looks on their faces, said, “Sorry, sorry…”

Then they couldn’t help but complain with a hint of grievance, “If you’re selling vegetables, just sell vegetables; if you’re selling tea, just sell tea. Why make it all so sneaky?”

They had received three calls in the morning, all reporting suspected drug deals, and each time they had dashed to the scene with alacrity—

Only to find out it was a big misunderstanding after the middle-aged man surnamed Sun explained everything next door.

Little did they know their discomfort was nothing compared to old Sun’s distress.

The calamity had struck early that morning, and the agony he suffered is another story.

Just consider that in order to teach him a lesson, his wife left with most of the tea leaves early in the morning, leaving him only a tiny bit, which he had desperately managed to salvage.

Old Sun was heartbroken and felt nowhere was safe to hide it, so he decided to carry it with him at all times. To prevent it from getting crushed, he not only put it in a sealed bag but also wrapped it in paper.

He did it to prove to his brothers that he had sacrificed too much, and when it was time to distribute the tea leaves, each person owed him a cup!

The group had all sneakily taken money from their secret stashes and dared to bring everyone only after making sure there were no familiar faces at the market.

Who would have thought!

The money had just been transferred when they found themselves confused and taken to the station.

Old Sun had always abided by the law, and this was the very first time for him! The whole market had seen it, and he had lost all face. How could he show up to buy groceries in the morning from now on?!

But the real tragedy was still to come. When the police found that paper-wrapped bundle on him and opened it with the utmost care, they only found a bunch of tea leaves inside!

Now, it wasn’t that there were no new types of leaves disguised as tea leaves, but as soon as they opened it, the fragrance of tea began to waft through the room. Everyone took a sniff, and no one could mistake it.

Still, just to be sure, they unpacked the tea and eventually tossed it into a cup.

The nonchalant boiled water from the kettle poured over it, and old Sun watched with a bleeding heart!

Once the tea was steeped, and its aroma spread, it was nothing like what everyone had thought, and things finally got cleared up.

They apologized, but what good did that do?

Old Sun’s eyes reddened, and at his age, he had been embarrassed by this group of police officers:

“That was my tea, and all I had left was that one mouthful…”

He lamented.

The police officer responsible for brewing the tea was so uncomfortable that he quickly tried to console him, “Well, I have half a pound of tea leaves here, I’ll compensate you with all of it.”

Who knew old Sun would stand firm, “I don’t want it! Can your tea compare to mine? A thousand bucks for just an ounce!”

Wow!

The folks sniffing the aroma from their cups became unsteady: “A thousand bucks for an ounce?”

You actually bought this?!

Their incredulous expressions deeply wounded old Sun!

Suddenly, he stood up and began to parade the cup of tea around the room, attempting to thrust its fragrance under everyone’s noses:

“Just say it, this aroma, this fragrance! Isn’t this tea worth a thousand bucks? Huh?!”

“Do you know how hard it is for me? I’m just buying some tea, what have I done to anyone!”

Smelling the fragrance, the scales in everyone’s hearts began to waver—presumably, if the tea could fetch such a price and summon such a crowd, it must really be good, right?

In the end, Song Tan gained a dozen WeChat friends, while old Sun was left with nothing.

But Song Tan didn’t console old Sun.

All she did was sigh, “Look at you, buying tea as if you were thieving. Now everyone in the market knows I was taken to the station over selling vegetables. How am I supposed to do business in the future?”

Old Sun’s face fell, “Then what about me… The market is full of people I know, my wife, she…”

Everyone exchanged glances, finding the situation very awkward.

Only Qiaoqiao was overjoyed, “Sister, you were right. As soon as the police uncle saw my sign, he let me see you!”
